9: Intrusive Thoughts & Uncertainty: My Experience with OCD

What if you don’t need to fix every thought? In this episode, I'm getting personal. I'm opening up about my journey with mental health, anxiety and OCD. Including what it actually felt like to live inside intrusive thoughts, how I found my way to real support and the tools that helped me build trust in myself again. This one isn't about having it all figured out. It's about the messy, human process of learning to sit with uncertainty instead of fighting it. If you've ever felt like your own mind was working against you, or you've quietly wondered if what you're experiencing has a name, I hope this episode helps you feel less alone in it.
