The Other Side
"Nadine sure likes to talk" - every report card she brought home
Nadine has been talking for 47 years, and en route to pickleball can be overheard asking "So, what's your deepest wound?" Not known for her subtleties, she's a born story-collector and learned storyteller who decided to mic-up and take you along for the ride.
Listen in as Nadine chats with folks about their lives, zeroing in on those messy parts as we get ourselves from one point to another. Covering things like friendships, careers, deaths, and divorces. There's nothing she won't ask in hopes that other people's experiences can help you through your own.
We're not experts; we're just humans having a human experience we think you can learn from. Or relate to. Or laugh at. Or cry over.
So hit download, dive in, and hear how folks found themselves on THE OTHER SIDE.

The Other Side
TOS of the Therapist Couch

We are officially into the Holiday Season so I thought it was a great time to chat with Tesia Bryski and Alyssa Malizia, psychotherapists and the Co-Directors at Shine Mental Health Collective in Ottawa, ON. This time of year can be challenging for many for a multitude of reasons, so in this episode we wanted to share some insights into psychotherapy, access, the impact of the holidays on mental health and the ways in which we can take care of ourselves during a busy time of year.
In this conversation I wanted to turn the tables and ask the psychotherapists the questions; how did they find their way to this career? how do they take care of themselves after taking care of others? what is it like to supervise? and finally, do they ever take one side of a couple's argument during couple's therapy? (I HAD TO ASK!).
We also chat about the role AI is playing in mental health and finally, if sitting on the couch seems too much for you right now, both Tesia and Alyssa leave us with some tips that we can use to help us through the holidays.
