Homegrown Healing Podcast

015. Give to Gain

In this episode of Homegrown Healing, we explore the principle of Give to Gain. In a culture that encourages us to protect what is ours, small town communities remind us that generosity builds connection, purpose, and lasting impact. This conversation applies to everyone and it is also the heartbeat behind our upcoming Women’s Luncheon. When we choose to give, we often gain far more than we expect.

014. Seasonal Affective Disorder Month

As the days grow shorter, many people feel a heaviness they can’t quite name. In this episode of Homegrown Healing, Logan Martini and Paige Redding talk about Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and why the winter months can be especially hard in small-town Texas. They explore how community, faith, and tradition can both support and silence mental health struggles, share personal reflections, and offer practical ways to care for your emotional well-being during SAD Month. If winter feels heavier than usual, this conversation is for you.

013. Invisible Battles: Veterans, PTSD, and the Fight for Support

In this episode, Logan and Paige talk about the unseen struggles many veterans face with PTSD and the challenges of navigating the VA system. They break down what PTSD really looks like, why getting support and a disability rating can feel overwhelming, and how rural communities can step in with real help. This conversation offers clarity, compassion, and hope for veterans and the people who care about them.

012. Eating Disorders in Van Zandt County (and beyond)

In this episode, Logan and Paige uncover the realities of eating disorders in small-town America — where conversations about mental health are often quiet, but the need for understanding is great. They explore what eating disorders really are, how rural culture and limited access to care impact recovery, and what it means to show up for someone who’s struggling. Through honest dialogue and hope-filled perspective, they remind us that healing begins when we choose to see, listen, and care.

011. Understanding Caregiver Burnout

Caregiving is one of the most beautiful ways to serve — but when your heart is always focused on others, it can come at a cost. In this episode of Homegrown Healing, Logan and Paige open an honest conversation about caregiver burnout: what it looks like, why it happens, and how to recover from it. From the emotional and physical toll of constant care to the guilt that often keeps caregivers from asking for help, this episode explores the tension between compassion and exhaustion. You’ll hear practical ways to restore your energy, set boundaries, and find community support — whether you’re a professional caregiver or caring for a loved one at home. If you’ve ever felt weary while doing good, this episode is a reminder that rest is not a reward — it’s a requirement for wholehearted care.
