My Therapist Said

My Therapist Said is where therapy, comedy, and the human experience collide.Hosted by Stef — a therapist with just enough self-awareness left to translate the chaos of being human. From addiction and relationships to burnout, identity, and modern life, nothing is off limits. Because mental health doesn’t have to be heavy to be heard.

    70,000 Emotions

    Stef is back on this Friday episode reflecting on a sleepless night, a much-needed therapy session, and what happens when you stop treating every difficult feeling like something that needs to be fixed.Part therapy reflection, part existential spiral, and part stream-of-consciousness comedy special, Stef shares thoughts on journaling, burnout, emotional processing, addiction, OCD, and why sometimes the most helpful realization is that maybe nothing is wrong — maybe you're just feeling something.Plus: Bubsie makes a sleepy appearance.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.

    Boundaries in hell

    The boundaries are in hell this week.Stef talks about grief, vulnerability, and the strange emotional whiplash that happens when you’re trying to separate your identity from expectations that have consumed you for years. What starts with an embarrassing moment at yoga turns into a bigger conversation about exhaustion, attachment, and learning how to stay calm with a nervous system that’s doing the absolute most.Stef also spirals about vulnerability online, grief and exes, insomnia at 3 AM, whether healing is making her emotionally softer or just more unstable, and the realization that Bubs has suddenly discovered barking after eight years of silence. Chaos. Absolute chaos.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.

    Sad about roadkill

    Stef is back on this Friday episode to riff on the worldly impacts of mental health provider burnout, emotional exhaustion, and the strange pressure to keep functioning inside systems that clearly aren’t working. Somewhere between unpacking Bravo relationship dynamics, grieving roadkill on the side of the road, and passionately defending the importance of a structured hoodie, this episode turns into a conversation about what happens when someone narrates their actual inner world in real time. In true Stef fashion, this episode is just as chaotic as it is meaningful — and again, she’ll be done eventually.Also featured: Bubsie makes an appearance as “the cutest dog in the whole world.”Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.

    Sometimes I be grievin"!!

    We are back baby!!This week Stef talks about losing her mom, transitions, vulnerability, and the strange pressure humans put on themselves to constantly have answers for everything. What starts as a conversation about grieving slowly unfolds into a deeper reflection on therapy, dating, creativity, healing, and the quiet emotional currents that sit underneath everyday life.Inspired in part by comedian, Alyssa Limperis talking about grief and collective loss, Stef explores the idea that maybe everyone is grieving something — and maybe part of being human is learning how to wonder a little longer before rushing toward certainty.Also discussed: Bubs’ ongoing listening-ear allegations.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.

    The Party Within x Evan Cudworth

    Stef sits down with "party coach" Evan Cudworth for a conversation about connection, addiction, loneliness, identity, and what it means to actually have fun again. What starts as a conversation about partying turns into a deeper discussion around isolation vs. solitude, nostalgia, social anxiety, conscious partying, and learning how to reconnect with yourself and others in a world that feels increasingly draining.Stef and Evan talk about loving every version of yourself, making peace with ghosts from past chapters, the way addiction can “move around,” and the importance of radical responsibility without shame. Together, they explore the overlap between therapy and coaching, the fear of uncertainty, and how curiosity, wonder, and human connection might be the things pulling us back to life again.Find Evan on IG & TikTok: @evan_cudworth | partycoach.meFollow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.

    Life is a horror movie

    Life is feeling a little... horror-movie-coded this week. Stef talks about closing her private practice, burnout, risk tolerance, grief, embarrassment, and the strange identity crisis that happens when the thing you worked so hard to build suddenly ends. What starts as a conversation about therapist pay and insurance companies turns into a much bigger conversation about uncertainty, ambition, emotional labor, and the pressure to keep reinventing yourself when your nervous system is begging for stability.Stef also spirals about hoodies, horror books with evil vibes, why therapists are always called “crazy” online, and the weird in-between space of addiction and recovery that we struggle to talk about honestly. A chaotic, vulnerable, funny, existential little Wednesday episode.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.

    Not All Men

    Hi! Content warning: this episode includes discussion of stalking and nonconsensual sharing of intimate content. If you’re experiencing something similar, please seek legal support if it feels safe to do so. Take what you need and skip ahead if it’s not for you today.What starts as a conversation about dating turns into one of the most honest episodes Stef has recorded yet. Stef talks about creating from low places, grief, fear, healing, men’s mental health, and the complicated reality of loving men while also being deeply hurt by them. Stef also opens up about a past experience with stalking, the lasting impact it had on dating and safety, and what it means to use humor, storytelling, and honesty to take power back.This week, Stef is mixing it up a bit... we are breaking from the f***boys (sorry mom) and dedicating this episode to the good men. The men who listen. The men who show up. The men who help you move furniture, make eye contact when you’re hurting, and hold space without trying to fix everything.Follow along on IG & TikTok: @mytherapistsaidpod — New episodes every Wednesday & Friday.

    Ouch Bubs!

    Some episodes feel more like a conversation than a podcast, and this is one of those. Stef gets honest about mental health, shame spirals, addiction, and the strange experience of trying to find balance while still being very human.This episode dives into the consequences of avoidance, the pressure to “have it together,” and what it feels like to navigate addiction in the gray area instead of through black-and-white thinking — all while processing yoga meltdowns, tattoos, nervous-system crashes, and ghosting someone you actually cared about. Ouch Bubs!Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday & Friday.

    Pent-Up Vibes & Poor Communication

    This week Stef is talking pent-up vibes, poor communication, and the very real urge to absolutely lose your mind instead of just… sending the text.From a wild dressage documentary that somehow turns into attempted murder (yes, really), to the subtle art of dodging accountability in addiction conversations, to Stef crying on a hike because she had to tell a man she wasn’t into him—this episode is a little chaotic, a little self-aware, and very honest.We get into why we don’t say what we mean, how avoidance follows you way longer than the hard conversation, and what it looks like to actually choose differently in real time.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes Wednesday & Friday.

    Down to Clown

    Hi! Content warning: this episode includes discussion of teenage drug use, specific substances, and overdose. Take what you need and skip ahead if it’s not for you today.Stef dives in this week talking about what happens when you step outside your comfort zone… and immediately want to go back to your old routine. From switching up yoga classes to having a full-blown circus mindset at 5 a.m., this is what it actually feels like to try to change your life in real time.Then it gets deeper. Stef shares a story she’s never told before and the uncomfortable question she had to ask herself about her past. Not the version that sounds better—but the honest one. The kind of honesty that shifts how you see yourself and, honestly, makes you feel free. This one’s about discomfort, patterns, and what happens when you stop avoiding the truth.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday & Friday.

    Don’t Let Kaiser Make You Mad Dude

    Welcome back to the circus 🎪This week we’re talking relationships, mental health, and the very real experience of falling in love with a man you met for 7 minutes…twice. Stef gets into how her brain works in dating (hi OCD, hi grief), why she tends to glamorize the unavailable, and what actually sits underneath all of that when you strip the jokes away.We also have a full Kaiser pharmacy moment (you already know), a rant about Apple packaging because obviously, and a quick check-in on Bubs’ academic performance because…he’s going through something.It’s a little unhinged, a little emotional, and very much just Stef figuring it out in real time.New episodes every Wednesday and Friday. Follow along on IG & TikTok: @mytherapistsaidpod 🎧💚

  12. 84

    I’m a silly goose, not an idiot

    This week, Stef spirals (lovingly) through a few things that aren’t sitting right—starting with turning 34 and realizing people have a lot to say about it.From why being young isn’t something to be sought after, to the very real habit of placing unfair expectations on people (and then wondering why it hurts), this episode is equal parts chaotic, honest, and self-aware. Also: Bubs is acting like he pays bills.It all lands on one thing: knowing better doesn’t always mean you do better… and being honest about that anyway.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.

  13. 83

    Grief, But Keep It Moving

    A very Friday episode.We’re talking trash TV (including Trust Me on Netflix), cult documentaries, life feeling like it’s either falling apart or falling into place (who knows), and how to remind yourself you’re still doing okay in the middle of it.Also… a childhood story that truly didn’t need to happen to me, but did.New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.Follow along on IG & TikTok: @mytherapistsaidpod 💚🎧

    How Do I Explain This to a Pit Bull?

    This week, Stef unpacks the shame and stigma that still surround addiction—and why healing has never been as simple as just “turning it off.” From a yoga class moment that left her feeling unexpectedly seen to the impossible task of explaining pest control to a pit bull determined to sunbathe.This episode is funny, honest, and a little all over the place in the best way. It’s about growth, feeling seen, and learning that sometimes healing looks like applause in a yoga studio… and sometimes it looks like Bubs tip-tapping at the door for three straight hours.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday & Friday.

  15. 81

    Am I getting soft?!

    This week, Stef is back in her Friday energy. After coming off a heavier episode, she checks in with herself—and you—before diving into a realization she wasn’t expecting: she might be getting… softer? From reacting to a brutal true crime show in a completely different way, to spiraling over a lit candle mid-hair appointment (and the absolute MVP friend who saved the day), this episode is equal parts chaotic storytelling and subtle emotional growth. Stef reflects on her own patterns, past relationships, and the role humor plays in both healing and deflection. It’s funny, it’s honest, and it’s a reminder that yes—you can laugh your way through life… but you still have to feel your feelings too.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday & Friday.

    If you’re an addict, you’re still a bad bitch

    Stef talks navigating addiction, to behaviors she's not proud of, unpacking what it means to feel loved only when you’re doing things “right”—this is a real-time conversation about being human.Two things can be true; acknowledging behavior you don’t love, while still choosing to love yourself anyway.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday and Friday.

  18. 78

    What If I Don’t Wanna Know?

    Stef spirals from a humbling yoga class (sometimes you’re a bad bitch, other days you’re not) into a bigger conversation about judgment, trauma, and why the internet is so quick to decide who’s right and who’s wrong.She gets into what it actually means to hold a neutral lens without excusing harmful behavior, why having access to every answer (hi, ChatGPT) is lowkey overwhelming, and how we’ve completely lost the ability to just… wonder.It’s chaotic, honest, and somehow still makes a point.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday & Friday.

  19. 77

    Care, Don’t Carry

    What does it actually look like to care… without carrying everything?This episode lives in the space between burnout and self-compassion—where being deeply empathetic starts to feel heavy, and learning how to pull that energy back inward becomes necessary.Stef reflects on boundaries, emotional responsibility, and the quiet shift from over-functioning to choosing yourself. From being “fresh out of empathy” to rebuilding it in a way that actually lasts.A thoughtful, honest episode about letting things matter… without letting them consume you.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday & Friday

    Fresh Out of Empathy (& Other Thoughts I Shouldn’t Have)

    This week, Stef is fresh out of empathy and has thoughts. From performative empathy and mental health buzzwords to dating delusion, fuckboy art therapy, and why reality TV continues to butcher therapy… we’re covering it all.Also: the thought well has no bottom, single girlies are nodding and crying, and yes—she’s framing a “take care” text in gold.You’ve been warned.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Wednesday & Friday.

    Silly goose business!!

    This week Stef talks about what it actually means to let yourself heal, grow, and change — and the difference between wanting that and actually allowing it.From a surprisingly calm yoga moment, to a midday meditation that shouldn’t have worked (but did), to taking herself on an artist date that led somewhere unexpected, Stef reflects on rest, resistance, and why maybe everything in life doesn’t have to be so hard.Also included: a chaotic internal monologue at a coffee shop, Stef getting herself involved in yet another public bit, and proof that sometimes the circus in your mind really is just… circusing.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

  22. 74

    Actually, I do have something to say

    This week, Stef talks about friendship, yoga class chaos, feeling unexpectedly supported by community, and why birthdays can bring up way more grief than people realize. From hot yoga circus brain to The Artist’s Way resentment to missing the people who used to make birthdays feel easier, this episode is funny, reflective, and a little all over the place in the best way.If you’ve ever felt deeply loved and deeply sad at the exact same time, this one’s for you.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

    The circus is back!!!!

    Content note: This episode includes discussion of opioid addiction and mentions specific substances. If you're in recovery, please be mindful while listening.Stef is back in yoga after a month-long back injury and immediately spirals into several important topics: OCD brain loops, addiction recovery lore, and why addicts love a loophole but absolutely hate a lesson.This week she’s unpacking what it’s like to live with a brain that refuses to let things go, the strange logic of the addicted mind, and why humor might actually be one of the most powerful coping skills we have.Plus: a float tank experiment, advocating for therapists in a yoga class, and Stef realizing that sometimes healing just looks like learning to laugh at your own chaos.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

  24. 72

    cool girl down!!!

    Stef is back with another week of absolutely necessary self-reflection (unfortunately triggered in public). This episode includes a roller-skating reality check, the snowboarding lore that confirms some hobbies should have stayed in childhood, and a deep dive into Love Is Blind that is very much about reality TV and absolutely not Stef projecting her own dating history.If you’ve ever committed to the bit a little too hard… this one’s for you.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

  25. 71

    Okay so... Death (ft. Leslie Howard)

    Stef is back with guest Leslie Howard (yoga teacher, hospice volunteer, and all-around death-positive human) for a conversation about end-of-life awareness that’s somehow calming instead of terrifying.They talk about Shavasana as more than just the nap at the end of yoga, why death suddenly turns into a logistical panic when we avoid talking about it, what people actually care about near the end of life, and why grief isn’t linear — it’s wavy, messy, and deeply human.Also: a gentle reminder you might need today — we are nature. And sometimes the whole point is just zooming back into your actual life.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

  26. 70

    Just say no... (next time)

    Stef is back unpacking addiction, reality TV chaos, and the very confident belief that next time… she’ll follow the D.A.R.E. theory we all know and love, and just say "no". From Housewives spirals to early-2000s lore under a very 2026 lens, this one is part cultural commentary, part personal spiral, and fully self-aware as always. If you’ve ever side-eyed your past self, fallen down a Bravo rabbit hole, or needed a reminder to zoom back into your real life — this one’s for you.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

    Killer Cow Hike

    This week on My Therapist Said, Stef drops a midweek episode because sitting alone with her thoughts for 7 days proved… ambitious. From a float tank mishap that somehow leads to clarity, to reading deprivation, to Bubs causing absolute chaos at Pet Food Express, this episode is a study in anxiety, self-awareness, and nervous systems doing the most.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

    Actually... People Don’t Change (Hear Me Out)

    Meditating In a Circus

    This week on My Therapist Said, Stef gets fully humbled by a brutal hot yoga class, admits meditation has been a straight-up circus lately, and shares a quick dating-app moment that reminded her why she hates the apps. She then zooms out into a bigger thought: is mental health care so undervalued because we don’t actually believe people can change? Stef connects the dots between insurance, power, and the chaos of trying to do meaningful work inside a broken system — and closes with a heavy (but important) reality-TV/doc moment that’ll have you thinking about how we treat mental health in the first place.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

  33. 63

    Positive self-talk. Right?

    This week on My Therapist Said, Stef talks losing her car keys, spiraling immediately, and the thin line between “positive self-talk” and fully roasting yourself.

    I’m Very Noncompliant.

    This week on My Therapist Said, Stef reflects on 2025 and records a very honest New Year’s Day episode about growth, burnout, boundaries, and choosing herself. She talks dating disappointment, being seen as “a lot”, therapist advocacy, unpaid labor in mental health, and what it actually looks like to stop flattening yourself for other people. A reflective, grounding episode about closing one chapter and stepping into 2026 more honest, more embodied, and very noncompliant.Follow along on IG & TikTok: ⁠@mytherapistsaidpod⁠ — New episodes every Friday.

    If I wasn't freaking out, I'd be hot

    This week on My Therapist Said, Stef talks New Year’s pressure and the very humbling realization that confidence does not make you good at everything. Featuring the chaotic story of getting scuba certified while wildly claustrophobic — tight wetsuit, scary rope to the bottom of the ocean, public crying, and somehow still walking away with a certificate.A funny, grounding reminder that being human is humbling — and that you don’t have to force yourself into things that don’t fit.Happy 2026.

    I Love You, I’m Not Going

    This week on My Therapist Said, Stef reflects on traditions, expectations, and what happens when you finally stop doing things just because you’re “supposed to.”She talks about why the holidays can feel heavy, how traditions can quietly turn into obligations, and why choosing yourself doesn’t mean you’re cold, selfish, or wrong — it just means you’re honest. There’s vulnerability, humor, grief, boundary-setting, and the very real relief that comes with opting out of what no longer fits.Happy holidays! (Even if it’s complicated).Follow along on IG & TikTok: @mytherapistsaidpod — New episodes every Friday.

    When Boredom Becomes the Villain
