  • Releasing Guilt & Embracing Boundaries: How to Journal Through Self-Doubt with Callie Martin Pierce

    Releasing Guilt & Embracing Boundaries: How to Journal Through Self-Doubt with Callie Martin Pierce
    Jul 8 2025

    🎙️ The F.E.E.L Podcast – Episode: Releasing Guilt & Embracing Boundaries: How to Journal Through Self-Doubt with Callie Martin
    Host: Melissa Crook | Guest: Callie Martin | Written by: Jessica Garrison

    In this empowering episode of The F.E.E.L Podcast, host Melissa Crook is joined by entrepreneur and boundary-setting enthusiast Callie Martin for a heartfelt conversation about the emotional weight of guilt, the strength it takes to say no, and the healing power of journaling.

    Callie opens up about her journey of discovering her core values, overcoming people-pleasing tendencies, and honoring her truth. Through practical tools and powerful stories, she reminds us that boundaries aren’t walls—they’re bridges back to ourselves.


    Together, we explore:🛑 The guilt of saying no💬 Boundaries as an act of self-worth📝 Journaling through self-doubt and internal narratives🌿 Real-life examples of empowered, honest communication🧠 Reframing guilt to reclaim your peace

    Whether you’ve struggled with saying no or are just beginning your boundary-setting journey, Callie’s perspective will give you clarity, language, and permission to show up for yourself with courage.


    📌 Keywords:Setting boundaries, Releasing guilt, Journaling for mental health, How to say no, Self-doubt and self-worth, Mental health journaling prompts, Emotional boundaries, Empowered communication, Overcoming people-pleasing, Healthy relationship boundaries, Self-care mindset, Guilt-free boundary setting, Personal growth journey, Authentic living, Emotional wellness podcast


    Blog Excerpt:Callie Martin has been on a long journey of discovering healthy boundaries and putting them in place. She emphasizes understanding your values and how they dictate what you say yes and no to. If you don’t value yourself and your time, life becomes about pleasing others instead of honoring yourself. Through journaling, Callie reframes guilt and communicates with authenticity. She models what it means to live your truth—even when it’s hard—and invites others to do the same.


    💛 Ways to Engage:If you’re struggling with guilt from setting boundaries, journal it out. Write down your thoughts. Ask yourself, what is reality? What is going on in your life? Why did you say no? Ask yourself, what are my thoughts? What narrative am I telling myself? Recognize that the stories you tell yourself are not always fact, and you can release yourself of the guilt from setting healthy boundaries.

  • Motherhood Without the Mask: Identity, Boundaries & Postpartum Truths with Marissa Zwetow

    Motherhood Without the Mask: Identity, Boundaries & Postpartum Truths with Marissa Zwetow
    Jul 3 2025

    🎙️ The F.E.E.L Podcast – Episode: Motherhood Without the Mask: Identity, Boundaries & Postpartum Truths with Marissa ZwetowHost: Melissa Crook | Guest: Marissa Zwetow | Written by: Jessica Garrison

    In this raw and empowering episode of

    The F.E.E.L Podcast, therapist, author, and mother Marissa Zwetow returns for a deeply validating conversation about what motherhood really looks and feels like. Together with host Melissa Crook, Marissa peels back the layers of postpartum mental health, identity loss, emotional labor, and the hidden pressures placed on women to do it all—without ever asking for help.

    Through honest storytelling and clinical insight, Marissa offers a vital reminder: you can love your children fiercely and still need rest, space, and support. Two truths can exist at once—and when we name those truths, we begin to heal.


    Together, we explore:🧠 Why we must normalize postpartum mental health💥 How “weaponized gratitude” keeps women silent⚖️ The truth about gender roles and emotional labor🛑 The cost of ignoring your own needs🗣️ Finding your voice—and your worth—after motherhood


    Whether you’re a new mom, a seasoned parent, or someone rethinking what womanhood means to you, this conversation gives language and permission to feelings many are scared to say out loud. Let this episode be your reminder: you are not alone, and your needs matter.


    📌 Keywords:postpartum mental health, motherhood identity crisis, emotional labor in parenting, real motherhood podcast, gender roles after childbirth, therapist talks motherhood, women's mental health podcast, motherhood and burnout, postpartum depression support, balancing motherhood and self, boundaries in motherhood, feminist parenting, authentic motherhood stories, mom guilt and mental health, breaking motherhood stigma


    Blog Excerpt: Throughout the episode, Marissa discusses her time as a mother, and although we hear a lot about motherhood, we don’t always hear the truth from women. We have this idea in our mind of what motherhood is and how it will play out for us, but that only scratches the surface of an iceberg of experiences.


    💛 Ways to Engage: What are your expectations for yourself? What are society's expectations for you? Is there overlap or are there some expectations you thought were your own but turned out to be someone else’s? Think about what you want out of life and what you expect for yourself without listening to what the outside voices want.
