We're taking it back to the very first podcast episode I ever recorded. (Bear with me on the lack of professionalism and some outdated language!) This is a journey in time to that BIG moment of vulnerability, when everything changed for me because I decided to share my story with strangers.

Hopefully it will inspire you and, if you're a regular listener, remind you of how far we go when we just take that leap of faith and stay consistent.

Thank you for always being here and sharing moments with me! It's been an incredible journey of growth and I can't believe the evolution since this first episode.

Are you always doing but never feeling at peace? Have you ever wondered why no matter how much you achieve, that sense of calm seems out of reach?

If you’re nodding your head, this one is for you!

In this special solo episode, I’m opening up about something deeply personal that might hit close to home for you—being trapped in survival mode. It’s the constant hustle, the pressure to always be productive, and the nagging guilt when you’re not. We’ve all been there, but it doesn’t have to be this way.

Here’s what you’ll discover:

• How hustle culture tricks us into thinking happiness is just one more accomplishment away.
• Practical tips to shift out of survival mode and start reclaiming moments of calm in your life.
• Signs of upcoming burnout and how it overworks our nervous system
• My personal journey with mental health—from battling depression to learning how to stop tying my self-worth to productivity.
• Three powerful actions you can take today to slow down, find inner peace, and avoid burnout.

This episode is about understanding why we push ourselves so hard and how to start living with more ease and presence.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by constant doing or just want to feel a little more grounded, listen in and let’s do it together.

Why do we keep falling into the same relationship patterns? And why do certain attachment styles feel like they’re running the show in our love lives?

In this episode of the Feel Good Nakd podcast, we get into the heart of these questions with licensed psychotherapist Ginger Dean.

Ginger has an incredible psychology background where she’s seen ALL patterns of trauma play out. It’s her raw, no-BS advice on healing after toxic relationships that will truly have you rethinking everything. Spoiler: It doesn’t matter how much money you grew up with—attachment trauma has no boundaries. She’s here to show you how your attachment styles (yes, even the sneaky avoidant or anxious ones) are quietly shaping your love life.

If you’re ready to finally get on the path to healthy relationships, this episode is for you. Ginger shares everything from why we chase after the chaos to the self-soothing techniques that will change how you deal with emotional triggers—for good. Her message is clear: healing is within your reach, and it starts with understanding yourself better.

🔥 Here’s what you’ll walk away with:

• The reason you keep falling for the wrong people (and how to stop)

• The truth about attachment styles and how they’re running the show behind the scenes

• Why it’s time to take a “heart sabbatical” and reset your relationship standards
