Dysfunctionally Yours
Welcome to Dysfunctionally Yours, the podcast where we embrace the chaos, laugh through the struggles, and find hope on the other side of trauma. I am your host, Brittany, and if you’ve ever felt like your life was a beautifully messy rollercoaster of dysfunction, trust me, you’re in good company. Here we’ll have real, raw, and sometimes ridiculous conversations about mental health, relationships, and healing, because let’s be honest, life isn’t always pretty but that we can’t come out of it stronger (and maybe even smiling). So grab a cup of coffee or a glass of bubbles, and let’s navigate this wild journey together, dysfunctionally, but never alone.
