  • Very helpful

    I am currently recovering from a week long stay in a mental health facility after experiencing sleep deprivation brought on by PTSD and this really helped to hear… I keep struggling with not understanding why I still feel so scared and uncomfortable but doing this practice will make me clearly see my brain and body are recovering from serious trauma … the more I force “feeling better” the harder this will be … I need to keep track of when I feel those moments of relief… even if they only last a... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

258. why you never feel good enough (even when you're doing everything right) dr. marisa g franco
Q: Are there any misconceptions or things that you think people get wrong about worth or self-worth?
Common misconceptions include equating self-worth with constant positivity or flawless behavior; the guest emphasizes that true worth emerges from acknowledging hurt, practicing acceptance, and resisting the urge to overly police one's internal experiences.
258. why you never feel good enough (even when you're doing everything right) dr. marisa g franco
Q: What are those steps that people can follow as an easy reminder if I wanted to set myself up for success or if I wanted to try to approach this differently?
The guest suggests practical steps like recognizing uncomfortable emotions, offering oneself reassuring words, and embedding those phrases to create a bodily felt sense of safety; she also describes a broader approach of mindful engagement with triggers and a blend of in-the-moment strategies and reflecting on past memories to reconsolidate beliefs about worth.
257. why you can be loved and still feel unlovable (feat. dr. marisa franco)
Q: What practical steps help someone move toward feeling more worthy without forcing themselves into false positivity?
Begin with validating the emotion, acknowledge what's real, and practice small, achievable changes that affirm your worth—like recognizing small acts of kindness you've done or experiences where you felt seen—then gradually build up to more challenging memories with memory reconsolidation techniques.
247. do i need therapy, or is this just life?
Q: How do you determine if you're feeling distressed enough to need help?
You can reflect if it's distressing, impairing your life, or if you're hoping it will just go away on its own.
235. society is shaping women’s core beliefs… so let’s rewire them feat. kara loewentheil
Q: How do you differentiate between socially programmed anxiety and internally aligned thoughts?
They should ask if the thought is useful rather than if it's justified, focusing on the outcomes their thoughts produce.
