1. Diagnosis & Treatment with Borderline Personality Disorder (Randall King)
09/07/23 • 59 min
Getting the most accurate mental health diagnosis that helps guide you to the best treatment is not usually an easy task. The time and frustration that it takes to go through the process can leave some people feeling hopeless. My friend Randall King opens up about what it’s been like to get the proper diagnosis for Borderline Personality Disorder and the steps that have been really helpful in his treatment. He provides so much hope in this episode that I believe will really encourage many of you! Check out the resources below to better understand the diagnosis itself and also the treatments that Randall mentions in the show.

11. Season 1 Recap, Part 2 (Jason Fraser)
We’re wrapping up Season 1 with the second part of episode 11 with my husband, Jason! He is finishing his recap of every episode of season 1 and talking about his takeaways. He also shares a little bit about his own mental health journey with us. Be sure to listen to part 1 before jumping into part 2. Putting a close to season 1 means it’s time to share this show with someone that has never listened so that they can catch up before Season 2 airs in September. Be sure to subscribe to the show yourself so that you don’t miss the release of the first episode of Season 2.

2. Life After Loss (Ashley Alexander)
Dealing with a loss is never easy. My friend Ashley has experienced loss after loss after loss. Listen in as Ashley retells her journey losing her father, her sister and enduring numerous miscarriages in a matter of months. Listening to stories like Ashley’s reminds me how resilient the human spirit can be. I’m grateful for her vulnerability and the processing she has done to hold space for herself and her grief. Her desire and mine is for others to feel less alone in their journey. Check out Ashley’s social media and also referenced past interviews on grief and Ashley’s cousin, Brittany!
