In my first of two episodes with Shane we discuss having a regression in skills as you learn more about yourself and your neurodivergence and practice unmasking; our chronic struggles with self-harm; substance use; and more! Thank you, Shane, for your vulnerability and joining the podcast!

This episode did not go where Brooke and I planned and at first I had like a week's worth of guilt and shame. Did I overstep? Did Brooke think I was dissing her path? Did I hurt her feelings? Will everyone who listens think I'm abusive?

ALL THE FEARS.

And then I listened back and realized that Brooke and I had a super rad conversation and it was uncomfortable for both of us at times to engage in dialogue about how our work and our degrees won't give us any authentic and sincere worth at the end of the day - it is fleeting at best because there will always be the next thing. Worth is internal and Brooke's future as a DBT Therapist and advocate will be bright and beautiful no matter what way she enters it. And I'm allowed to misstep with my boundaries sometimes because of my passion and ethics about my field. This episode series will be two parts and next week is even more beautiful. Thank you, Brooke!

Hi ya'll! Laurie and I recently made an announcement about her (really hard, as discussed in the episode) choice to leave the podcast to focus on The SuperFeelers Club and her future in advocacy. Please go look at the instagram post that we made about this as it has a more in-depth discussion, but our journey as partners in advocacy is coming to an end. This allows us to focus on work that is more authentic to each of us - her peer support and my podcasting.

This episode featured Laurie Edmundson who previously was a co-host of this project. You can find her at https://www.laurieedmundson.com and on IG @laurieanned where you will find ways to access The Super Feelers Club and other projects she works on.

Today we speak with Emily from Charlie Health, a virtual therapeutic program offering intensive outpatient.

In 2022 I learned about Charlie Health and their virtual intensive outpatient program for teens and young adults. At first all I could think was "Nah - this is too good to be true". And then I saw it in action and I knew that I needed to share this resource with ya'll.

*Charlie Health offers IOP programs that do offer DBT skills groups and support folx w/ emotion regulation struggles, however they are not a fully credentialed DBT program/agency/institute. They teach the skills in skills groups.
