Once considered taboo, therapy is now a crucial tool for emotional well-being. Christine and Saphira open up about their experiences—how therapy shaped them, helped them navigate loss, and why prioritizing mental health shouldn’t be just for moments of crisis. They explore different types of therapy, from cognitive behavioral therapy to EMDR and equine therapy, and discuss the importance of finding the right therapist. They also dive into self-care, journaling, and strategies for handling criticism without shutting down.
If you’ve ever considered therapy but felt hesitant, this episode is for you. Because taking care of your mental health isn’t a luxury—it’s essential. And as always… you’ll thank us later.
