Hey strangers — I’ve missed you.

This episode is a little different. It’s mid-February, life has been full (sickness, weather chaos, school closures, work), and I’m recording this with 18 minutes before my next client. So we’re embracing real life over polished perfection.

Today I’m finally sharing thoughts on January’s Therapist’s Bookshelf pick: Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg. This one pushed me a bit outside my usual comfort zone, and I’m reflecting on what stood out, what felt helpful, and why tiny, sustainable change matters more than dramatic overhauls.

We talk about:

  • Why small steps are often the most powerful ones
  • The importance of curiosity instead of shame when change doesn’t stick
  • Letting go of all-or-nothing thinking
  • Giving yourself permission to adjust when something isn’t a fit

This episode is less of a formal book review and more of an honest conversation about growth, habits, and what it looks like to keep showing up — even when you feel behind.

February’s book is How to Keep House While Drowning by KC Davis, and I’m really looking forward to diving into that one next.

If you feel like you don’t have it all together right now, you’re not alone.

Pull up a chair. Let’s sit with this together.

Let's Sit With This is hosted by Kristen Callaway, LMFT — a licensed therapist in Edmond, OK.
