What if you’re not broken—just stuck?
What if your anxiety, your fear, your procrastination… are not signs of dysfunction, but messages from the parts of you trying to help you survive?
In this conversation, I sit down with Britt Frank—licensed therapist, trauma specialist, and author of The Science of Stuck—to unravel what it really means to heal.
We talk about the power of parts work, why labeling ourselves as ‘damaged’ keeps us from growing, and how self-awareness isn’t just about light—it’s about looking honestly at the shadows too.
This is not your typical healing conversation. It’s real, it’s raw, and it’s the wake-up call so many of us didn’t know we needed.
If you’ve ever felt like you should be further along in your healing, or that something inside you is working against you—this episode will change how you see your mind, your past, and yourself.
