A New Way to Grit Through with Victoria Mexcur
from Good Movement Draws Good Movement
In today's episode, I’m talking with licensed mental health therapist Victoria Mexcur about a new way to grit through. Trauma is often treated as a singular, heavy label, but it’s much more nuanced. It’s an experience that impacts the nervous system, creates mental loops, and can disconnect the mind and body in very individual ways.We dive into breaking stigma, repair, and why mental health is just as foundational as the land and animals we care so deeply for. This conversation is grounding, honest, and incredibly needed; I know it will meet you right where you are!In this episode, we cover:Victoria’s path into therapy + why she chose trauma workWhat trauma actually is + why it looks different for everyoneA reframe of “gritting through” that works WITH the body (instead of overriding it)How somatic experiencing & EMDR support nervous system regulationKey lessons from animals + Peter Levine’s workWhy traditional talk therapy isn’t always the right fit for rural & ag folksHow flexible, accessible therapy better supports rural life during busy seasonsUsing grit + a “get-er-done” mindset to reach out for support instead of going it aloneSimple starting tools for nervous system regulationWhy mental health is foundational to sustaining families, operations & long-term well-being Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!
