Let’s Get UnStuck Podcast

Some Chapters Only Make Sense Looking Back There are stories that just stick with us. Last night, Erin Gregory Creative shared one of those stories. On the surface, it was about graduating into one of the most uncertain job markets in recent history, navigating career disappointments, and finding herself on a path she never expected to take. But as our conversation unfolded, it became clear that t...

Post-Live Reflection I gotta say I absolutely LOVE what we do here with Let’s Get Unstuck Live Some stories ask us to listen. Others ask us to look inward. Tonight’s conversation with Christopher Carazas did both. We spent the evening talking about trauma, emotional survival, and what happens when the weight of our past quietly catches up to us. Not with chaos or dramatic moments, but in silence....

After the live ended tonight with Simon Salt , I found myself thinking less about perimenopause and more about the assumptions we make when we don't fully understand what someone else is experiencing. At first glance, this story seems like it’s about perimenopause. And certainly, that is part of it. Simon shared openly about the years his wife spent searching for answers while navigating symptoms...

What If Healing Isn’t a Fight? Tonight’s conversation with The Therapist Who Came Undone left me thinking about how much energy people spend managing themselves. The mental calculations and the second guessing. The constant pressure to stay in control. For our guest, that pressure lived inside an eating disorder for more than thirty years. Recovery felt like something that had to be earned through...

Last night’s conversation with Daniel Yee was one of the most honest and psychologically layered episodes we’ve had on Let’s Get Unstuck . What started as a conversation about ADHD quickly unfolded into something much deeper. Daniel Yee Psychology read his story What ADHD Feels Like as an Adult We talked about shame. About growing up believing your struggles mean something is fundamentally wrong w...

Tonight’s conversation with Eric Bensoussan went far beyond relationship advice. His story Why People Keep Choosing the Same Person took me through some deep reflections on parts of my life that definitely raised my eyebrows. What made this discussion powerful was the honesty inside it. The exhaustion of recognizing our own patterns while still feeling pulled toward them. The shame we carry when a...

Tonight’s conversation with Imi went much deeper than I expected. Not because of the diagnosis, but because of everything underneath it. We talked about anxiety in a way that felt real. It doesn’t just live in your thoughts. It shows up in your body. You try to manage it, push through it, stay ahead of it… until that stops working. Imi shared what it felt like to be stuck in that space. Constant t...

A Fatherhood Story About the Kind of Love That Stays My Dad is a Superhero was not just a story I read. It was a story I lived, and finally understood. I shared what it looked like to grow up in a home where illness changed everything, and how, in the middle of that, my dad became more than a father. He became caregiver, provider, protector, and the person who kept our family moving when nothing a...

Last night, Jason MacKenzie and Let’s Get Unstuck went live for one of those conversations that stays and stays and stays with you long after it ends. Jason shared the heartbreaking loss of his 19 year old daughter, Chloe, and brought listeners into the reality of what grief can look like when tragedy hits a family without warning. He spoke with honesty about shock, fear, trauma, and the impossibl...

Tonight was incredible. 2 poems, 2 different versions of life and a ton of tears! Seriously Chris B. Writes you need to write a poem book and title it The Gospel of Bray Bray! The two poems, Shave and Another Anagram , and together they gave us a deeply honest look at fatherhood through two very different lenses. 👉 Read Shave brought us into the future he once imagined with his son. It held the m...

What we talked about in this conversation with Bear Sage and why it matters more than people think Last night’s conversation with Bear Sage stayed with me. Not because it was shocking or dramatic, but because it was honest. The kind of honest that most people do not open up about. We talked about what it means to be a parent when the beliefs you were raised with do not line up with the reality in...

A post-live reflection on Jeff’s story of infant loss, grief, and what it means to keep going Tonight, Jeff read his story out loud. Boy the tears were flowing for us both! And there are some stories that do not leave you when they are over. This was one of them. He walked us through what it means to become a father…and lose your child in the same moment. Not once. Twice. He spoke about Davian. He...

Last night, we didn’t define motherhood. We expanded it. Four stories (well 3 b/c Ellen was sick).Four completely different experiences. All true at the same time. We talked about postpartum depression — and what it feels like when you don’t feel like yourself, but everyone expects you to. We talked about adoption — loving a child before you know if they’ll be yours. We talked about breaking patte...

Tonight was an excellent episode with Dr Deborah Vinall who read her story A Metaphorical Kiss . Healing Body Image and Learning Self Compassion in a World That Teaches Us to Criticize Our Bodies This week’s conversation was centered on something so many people carry, yet rarely pause to examine. The relationship we have with our bodies. Her story reflects on how that relationship begins long befo...

This week on Let’s Get Unstuck , I had the opportunity to sit down with Pam Voss for a deeply honest conversation about how clarity sometimes arrives slowly, and often in ways we do not expect. Pam shared how journaling began as a simple daily habit. At first it was a place to reflect on her thoughts, her faith, and the things she hoped to improve in her life. But over time those pages began captu...

Isabelle will be reading her story November 24 . What may seem like a date to you, is a date that changed Isabelle’s entire life around. Twenty four had always been her lucky number. The day she was born. A number that felt whole. Shared. And then on November 24, 2023, everything changed. That was the night she gathered her two little boys, fought for her life in her own garage, and drove away bar...

**Note this can be triggering as it talks about attempted suicide. Ellen Scherr has completed our Motherhood Series, All the Ways a Mother is Born. Ellen’s story I Almost Lost My Daughter Before I Realized I Was the Problem is one of the heaviest stories I have read about Motherhood, self realization, self-reflection, accountability and it is pure honesty. She read her story and walked us through...

Erin Gregory writes , How I Lost MySelf in Motherhood and Found Myself Again , is a deeply honest reflection on what happens after the baby arrives… when the expectations fade, the exhaustion sets in, and the version of yourself you once knew feels harder to reach. This isn’t a story about not loving your child. It’s a story about loving your child and struggling with the quiet loss of identity th...

Some love stories don’t begin with certainty. They begin with waiting. With fear. With the quiet understanding that everything could still fall apart. Tonight we went live with writer Lynn J. Broderick to talk about A Story that Could Have Gone Either Way — a deeply honest adoption story that explores infertility, choice, grief, hope, and the love that almost wasn’t hers to keep. Lynn shares what...

We grow up thinking motherhood has a clear outline. The one with neat edges, one version, one path. Then real life steps in and redraws everything. Not with illness or trauma or choice alone, but with the things we witnessed, the moments that marked us, and the parts of life we had to make sense of on our own. It’s not the picture-perfect version we grew up imagining. It’s the one we lived our way...

Last Night on Let’s Get Unstuck Live , I sat down with The Therapist Who Came Undone for a conversation about grief, friendship, and what it means to show up when nothing can be fixed. She read her story F**k It Bucket It — a reflection on profound loss, a milestone birthday reshaped by grief, and the friends who arrived not with answers, but with presence. This is a story about: * grief that chan...

Last night on Let’s Get Unstuck Live , I sat down with Anna of Tender & True for a conversation about motherhood when life doesn’t follow the plan you imagined. Anna reads her story titled So, the Anatomy Brought Hard News- You’re Not Alone . It’s about learning her son would be born with a limb difference — a moment that stops time, rearranges expectations, and forces you to confront fear, grief,...

Read Jake’s Story - Authenticity & Anthony Bourdain I held off on having Jake Summers on Let’s Get Unstuck Live until 2026 for a reason. His story felt like the right way to kick off this year — with honesty, risk, and the kind of truth that rattles something awake in you. Jake walked away from a six-figure finance career — the kind of life that checks all the boxes society tells you to want — and...

Hannah’s story begins with a diagnosis — Stage III endometrial cancer at thirty-two — and a sentence no one is ever prepared to hear. But what unfolds isn’t just about illness or prognosis. It’s about what surfaces when time suddenly feels fragile. It’s about grief that never fully had space to breathe — especially the loss of her mother when Hannah was just nine years old —this followed her into...
