July 21, 2025 • 30 mins
What if the foods you eat every day are silently impacting your mood, focus, and mental well-being?

In this episode of the Soul Therapy podcast, I share the surprising journey that led me to give up meat permanently—by accident—and how that one decision unlocked a powerful connection between gut health and mental health. From cutting out meat and wheat during Lent to uncovering the healing properties of turmeric, golden milk, herbal...

June 30, 2025 • 25 mins
What if the medicine you needed wasn’t in a bottle—but in a song?

EP8 | Dating After Divorce: When Red Flags Come Dressed Up as Romance

June 16, 2025 • 29 mins
Remember when you thought jumping back into dating after divorce would be a breeze—until that “still, small voice” started whispering things you tried to ignore? Yeah, been there.

EP7 | You vs. You: The Breakup You Didn't Know You Needed

June 9, 2025 • 23 mins
In this episode, I’m exploring what it means to get honest with yourself—the version of you that learned how to survive, how to please, how to stay small just to feel safe or accepted. I had to break up with who I thought I was, and maybe you’re at that point too.

This conversation isn’t about chasing perfection or pretending to have it all together. It’s about doing the kind of inner work that makes everything else in your life sta...

EP6 | Respectfully Disobedient: Redefining My Relationship with My Parents

June 2, 2025 • 18 mins
Before you ever had a crush, a best friend, or your first paycheck, you had them. The Original Roommates. The ones who handed you your first emotional blueprint: your parents. Or, as my siblings and I like to call them, “The Parentals.” 

In this episode, I’m unpacking the complicated, often unspoken layers of the first relationship that taught you how to be in the world. The relationship that shaped everything. I share what it was l...

EP3 | Who Am I Now? When Grief Changes Everything You Thought You Knew

May 12, 2025 • 11 mins
Grief has a way of burning everything down—your plans, your peace, your sense of self. So who are you now? In this deeply personal episode, I explore what no one told me about the identity crisis that often follows loss. Grief doesn’t end when the funeral’s over. For many, that’s when the real work begins—especially when it forces you to question who you are without what (or who) you’ve lost. This episode uncovers how grief impacts...
