I was talking with someone the other day and realized—not everyone sees therapy, coaching, and “brain work” the way I do. For me, it’s like brushing my teeth or moving my body. We all know working out is good for our bodies, and I think of coaching, therapy, and other mind tools as ways to work out my mind.

Over the past few years, I’ve been taking care of my brain with regular therapy, coaching, and tools like meditation. These practices have helped me reframe anxious thoughts, regulate my emotions as a parent, and navigate chronic pain.

In this episode, I share my experiences with therapy and coaching, including:

  • The difference between therapy and coaching (and why I use both)
  • My first experience with EMDR for chronic pain
  • How “working out my mind” has shifted parenting and daily life
  • Why emotional regulation sets the tone for my whole household
  • How I’ve found therapists and coaches that are the right fit

If you’ve been curious about therapy, coaching, EMDR, or meditation—and want the inside scoop from someone who’s tried a lot of it 😉—this one’s for you.

xx, Megan
