Hi Listeners! Meet one of Steph's all-time favorite people, Kristi. Welcome to Episode 40 of Therapists IRL. Kristi shares openly about what it is like to be orphaned, having lost her mom as a toddler and her father a few years ago. She also shares about the impact of Long COVID on her overall health, and the anxiety that comes from living with unexpected and frightening impacts, and her quest for wellness.

(As you listen, you may notice we reference the upcoming holidays a lot... that's because this episode has been sitting in the archives since November. Oops. Chalk it up to real life, I guess.)

Please reach out with questions, if you're in a helping profession and would like to come on the podcast, and/or your own mental health stories we can share anonymously.

No therapists were harmed in the making of this episode, but vulnerability hangovers are real.

Please note: While our podcast aims to destigmatize and normalize mental health issues, increase awareness, foster understanding, and offer support with love and laughter, we are not a substitute for professional mental health advice or treatment. [Read our full disclaimer here.]

If you're struggling, we encourage you to reach out to a licensed therapist, counselor, or healthcare provider.

If you are in crisis, please contact your local emergency services or a mental health crisis hotline. In the U.S., dial 9-8-8 for immediate services.

Remember, your mental health matters, and seeking professional help is a sign of strength. We're here to share stories, insights, and a bit of humor, but your well-being is our top priority.

With care,

Jen and Steph
