Feelings...and Other Inconveniences is our honest, curious, and sometimes humble look at the things we carry, why we carry them, and how we start putting some of it down. We’re Sarah Dosanjh, psychotherapist, and Stefanie Michele, life coach—two women on our own growth journeys, exploring what makes us who we are. Inspired by Carl Jung’s idea that “until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate,” we're on a mission to turn the light on inside ourselves—and invite you to do the same. Though we’re very different in most ways (and you'll probably notice), we share deeply held values and a mutual obsession with personal growth. This show is a space where we’ll share our stories and reflections with honesty, humour and heart. We’re not here as experts with all the answers, but as fellow travellers figuring it out as we go—curious about why we react the way we do, what’s beneath the surface, and how we can live more consciously, more connected, and more on purpose.2025 Ciencias Sociales Desarrollo Personal Éxito Personal

  • 5. Waiting For the Other Shoe to Drop (and other genius coping mechanisms)
    Jun 18 2025
    Do you ever get that feeling like something bad is just around the corner—even when things are going fine? In this episode, Sarah and Stef unpack the sneaky mindset of waiting for the other shoe to drop. Is it intuition? Is it trauma? Is it your hormones? From personal stories to psychological insight, they dig into the difference between gut feelings and hypervigilance, why calm can feel suspicious, and how to start trusting safety when you’re wired for threat. If you’ve ever struggled to feel peace without also feeling suspicious of it—this one’s for you. 00:45 Understanding 'Waiting for the Other Shoe to Drop' 01:06 Origins of the Phrase 02:45 Personal Experiences and Perspectives 10:11 Intuition vs. Anxiety 13:33 The Rocking Chair Metaphor 20:44 Trust and Anxiety 21:48 Exploring Physiological Triggers of Anxiety 23:25 The Role of Hormones in Anxiety 23:58 Understanding Peace and Regulation 25:00 The Concept of Baseline and Hedonic Treadmill 26:54 The Struggle with Accepting Low Moods 32:21 The Need for Stimulation and Change 36:42 The Call for Action or Intuition 37:47 The Emotional Wall and Breakdown Love the episode?

  • 4. Being Misunderstood: It's Not Me, It's You...or Is It Me?
    Jun 4 2025

    Not everyone is going to "get" us—but being misunderstood still stings.

    In this episode, Stefanie Michele (coach + somatic practitioner) and Sarah Dosanjh (psychotherapist + author) dig into the uncomfortable and triggering feeling of being misunderstood—especially in a world that thrives on hot takes and out-of-context clips.

    From the chaos of YouTube comments to subtle miscommunications in daily life, they explore what gets activated when people don’t “get” us, why it’s not always about ego, and how to stay rooted in your own truth without needing to over-explain.

    They’re not here to convince anyone of anything. Just a sharp, honest conversation about the gap between what we mean and what people hear—and how to hold your ground anyway.

  • 3. I Tried to Change but My Personality Said No
    May 21 2025

    In this episode, psychotherapist Sarah Dosanjh and coach/somatic practitioner Stefanie Michele unpack the messy truth about personal growth.

    Can we actually change who we are, or are we just managing symptoms with nicer language?

    They get real about procrastination, personality quirks, self-perception, and the parts of us that therapy just won’t touch.

    Through personal stories and client insights, they explore the line between acceptance and accountability — and why some things evolve, while others might be here to stay.

    It’s not a self-help pep talk.

    It’s a nuanced look at what we can shift… and what we might need to stop fighting.
