Why Your Relationship with Your Therapist Matters with Alyssa Mancao
<p>This week on FWD JOY, Chrissy sits down with licensed clinical social worker <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alyssamariewellness/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alyssa Mancao</a> for an honest conversation about therapy, trauma, anxiety, and the modalities people can’t stop talking about right now: CBT, EMDR, brainspotting, and trauma-informed therapy.</p><br><p>Together, they unpack why your relationship with your therapist matters more than any trendy modality, what EMDR actually feels like in practice, and how unresolved experiences can quietly shape the way we move through the world for years. Chrissy also opens up about her own experiences with anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, emetophobia, and the evolving nature of her healing journey.</p><br><p>If you’ve ever wondered whether therapy is “working,” struggled to find the right therapist, or questioned whether your experiences are “bad enough” to count as trauma, this episode is for you.</p><br><p>*ShopMy is my favorite platform for recommendations because it feels curated rather than overwhelming. I love being able to organize all my beauty, fashion, and wellness favorites in one place.

Why We Shouldn’t Give Advice to Our Younger Selves with Vienna Pharaon
<p>This week, Chrissy sits down with therapist, relationship expert, and returning guest <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mindfulmft/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Vienna Pharaon Pharaon</a> for an honest conversation about modern dating, anxious attachment, limerence, nervous system regulation, and what it actually means to keep your heart open in a dating landscape that can feel increasingly bleak.</p><br><p>Together, they unpack the emotional patterns that keep us stuck, why awareness alone isn’t enough to change behavior, and the difference between someone who won’t show up for you versus someone who genuinely can’t. They also explore the internet’s favorite dating phrases like “if he wanted to, he would,” detachment culture, and why so many people are struggling to balance hope with self-protection.</p><br><p>From fantasy spirals and situationships to flirting in Milan and learning how to self-regulate through heartbreak, this episode is a compassionate deep dive into love, capacity, healing, and the courage it takes to stay openhearted anyway.</p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

They get into the fundamentals of astrocartography, what it means to have planetary lines across the world, and how different places can activate different parts of your chart.</p><br><p>Together, they explore how to think about travel with intention, the difference between Venus, Mars, and Saturn lines, and why finding love or success in a new city isn’t always as simple as booking a flight. Helena also breaks down the role of timing, relocation charts, and why some places feel instantly familiar while others push you to grow.</p><p>Plus, Chrissy reflects on her own experiences living between New York and London, unexpected connections to Sweden, and what it really means to find a place that feels like home.</p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
