In this episode, I sit down with Chris Mason, a therapist who’s been through the wringer with anxiety and OCD, only to come out the other side swinging. We dive deep into his journey of facing his past demons, including that one time he exorcised his OCD while scrolling through his bully’s Facebook page. 🥊
Chris opens up about the real work it takes to reprogram your mind, why trauma and the subconscious play a bigger role in mental health than you might think, and how energy conservation became his secret weapon. He also drops some unconventional wisdom on why the voices in your head aren’t really you—they’re just bad programming.
Whether you’re battling your own OCD, dealing with anxiety, or just love a good story of personal triumph, this episode is packed with insights, humor, and practical advice. So, clap your hands if you’re ready to take control and give that OCD the boot! 👏👢🥾
