Feeling stuck doesn’t mean you’re unmotivated — it usually means you don’t feel safe enough to move. Fear, shame, and self-doubt can quietly trap us in loops of overthinking, avoidance, and perfectionism, especially when past experiences have taught our bodies that taking risks isn’t safe. In this episode, Mary explores why fear often...
In this episode we talk about how Letting go of control, comfort, and old coping patterns isn’t easy. Change asks us to allow, to trust, and to let in — all things that can feel terrifying if we’ve spent years surviving by keeping walls up.
In this episode, we talk about how to know ...
In this episode we’re talking about the truths we often avoid — the ones that feel too heavy, too risky, or too painful to face. These are the truths about ourselves, our relationships, and our lives that we push aside in the name of comfort, control, or keeping the peace. But avoiding them doesn’t make them disappear. It only keeps...
When you begin doing deeper work on yourself, the questions start coming: Why do I feel guilty when I take care of myself? Why does setting boundaries suddenly feel so frustrating? Why do I feel like I can’t tolerate certain people anymore? These moments can feel unsettling—but they’re actually signs that you’re waking up to yoursel...
In this week’s episode, I answer some of the most common questions I’ve heard as both a therapist and coach. From knowing when you’re settling, to why we ignore red flags, to what to do when boundaries aren’t respected, these struggles show up for almost everyone at some point in their relationships.
Sometimes what we call “helping” is actually about managing our own anxiety or steering someone else’s choices. In this episode, we explore how love and care can get tangled with control—often without us realizing it. We’ll look at how this shows up in long-term relationships, and how it can sneak in early with new partners or friends through behaviors that feel supportive on the surf...
Not all unhealthy relationships announce themselves with yelling, cheating, or dramatic fights. Many of the most damaging ones chip away at us quietly—through subtle behaviors we often brush off or explain away. In this episode, Mary unpacks the small but powerful signs that can leave you feeling drained, doubting yourself, and unsu...

But what makes Jimmy’...
This new month is all about being, being still, and having the bravery to be your authentic self. Well, in order to do that, we HAVE to reconnect with our feelings and truly be able to sit with them, or we simply cannot truly be in touch with ourselves. That’s why I’m so excited...
In this episode, we explore how your nervous system, subconscious, and body are constantly scanning for emotional safety—even when your logical mind doesn’t quite know why something feels off.

In this episode, we’re diving into what it really means to trust yourself—especially after years of self-doubt, people-pleasing, or putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own.

In this episode, we take a deeper look at the slow, often unnoticed ways we begin to disconnect from ourselves—especially when survival, acceptance, or love seemed to depend on it.

In this episode, we explore how emotional avoidance and self-abandonment often disguise themselves as being “helpful,” “productive,” or “strong.” Whether it's saying yes too quickly, fixing others’ emotions, or numbing out with distractions, these patterns are not bad habits - they’re survival strategies we picked up when it wasn’t ...

If you've ever found yourself holding back in conversation, choosing your words carefully, scanning the other person's face, or thinking three steps ahead just to avoid conflict, you’re not alone. Emotional honesty isn’t something we magically access. It’s something that grows in the presence of safety. In this episode, we're explor...
We’re often told that courage is about inner strength…that we have to dig deep and face the fear alone. But that’s not how it actually works. Courage is a relational experience.
