đż Wild Growth Therapist Podcast
Where messy healing meets sacred growth.
Hosted by licensed clinical social worker and recovering perfectionist Kirsten Kilroy, the Wild Growth Therapist Podcast is a space for the tender, the seekers, the cycleâbreakers, and deeplyâfeeling humans learning to bloom in wild, imperfect ways.
Blending evidenceâbased therapy tools with spiritual truth, each episode offers honest conversations on mental health, faith, trauma recovery, identity, relationships, and the beautifully nonâlinear path of becoming who you truly are.
Expect real talk, grounded wisdom, personal stories, and the occasional holy rant â all in the name of healing out loud and finding God in the wilderness.
