Calm AF
Calm AF is a podcast for high performers who have it together on the outside but feel like their brain never shuts up on the inside. You're capable, trusted, and high-functioning—yet somehow stuck overthinking decisions, replaying conversations, and carrying way more mental weight than you should have to. Hosted by Kristen Finch, this podcast names what's *actually* going on beneath the surface and helps you get back to your own confidence. You don't need to work on yourself. You just need real conversations that help the inside finally match what everyone else already sees on the outside.

January comes with these absurd and unrealistic expectations that we should already have our goals mapped out, habits in place, and our "new se...
From the outside, you look steady.

Inside, though, your mind doesn't stop.
Your constantly replaying conversations and second guessing decisions that you've already spent forever trying to make.

You say you want peace. You say you're ready to stop overthinking, people-pleasing, and spinning out.
So why does your brain keep dragging you back into suffering — even when life gives you a moment to breathe?

Sometimes the most profound lessons come from the most unexpected places. When Bob Saget died, the tributes revealed something that completely shifted how I think about legacy—and it's probably going to change how you think about yours too.
Here's what I was expecting: Nice tributes. People saying kind things because that's what you do when someone di...
Your nervous system thinks calm will actually kill you. I know it sounds backwards, but here's what nobody tells you: when you finally get the calm, regulated life you've been working toward, your system goes into overdrive looking for new chaos to manage.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
