Anxiety Flares

If you experience anxiety you know it comes in waves. I also say that are like flares. So for me being in a new environment, new people, etc can make me feel a certain way. So I am aware of myself when these times happen. This week I had a flare at a media event and it wasn't pleasant. I do plan to go there and see if it was the location or just the people or me. Anxiety can be debilitating but also something you learn to manage over time. I work through my anxiety and don't allow it to stop me from living this life. .............................................................. Today is also National Cherry Pop day so for that today's drink is Cherry Pop Cocktail It's also National Get Checked Day which is an outcry for women or the women in your life to get their breast checked. It's important. ............................................ As always we are in the preps of Fall. So by the time I come back for season 7 of the podcast we will be in a new regiment. If you aren't in the preparations for Fall beyond decorations with vitamins, etc please do that. ...........................................

Healing Without the Apology

There’s a particular kind of heartbreak that happens when you walk into therapy carrying wounds someone else created, yet the work ahead is yours alone. Healing Without the Apology explores that quiet, complicated space where personal accountability meets unresolved hurt. Each episode dives into what it means to rebuild yourself without closure, to take responsibility for your reactions without excusing someone else’s actions, and to grow even when the words “I’m sorry” never come. Through honest conversations, reflective storytelling, and grounded psychological insight, this podcast guides listeners through the messy, courageous process of reclaiming their power. It’s about learning to stop waiting for someone else to make things right—and choosing to become whole on your own terms. If you’ve ever felt the sting of being left with the emotional bill for someone else’s damage, this space is for you. Healing is still possible, even without the apology you deserved.

Should You Medicate-Medication as a Mental Health Tool

In this episode of Conversations with Toi, I’m diving into a topic that so many people quietly wrestle with: whether to medicate or not when it comes to mental health. There are a lot of negative stereotypes and heavy judgments attached to medication, and today I’m unpacking why those narratives exist and how they impact real people trying to heal. I talk about medication as a tool—not the only tool, not the magic fix, and not something to be ashamed of. I briefly walk through the different categories of mental health medications, without naming specific prescriptions, because I’m not a licensed therapist. My goal is simply to help you understand what’s out there and why some people choose medication as part of their wellness plan. We also explore other supportive mental health tools: therapy, lifestyle shifts, community care, boundaries, mindfulness, and the everyday practices that help you stay grounded and intentional. If you’re navigating your own mental health journey, I hope this conversation reminds you that you deserve care, options, and compassion.

Why No‑Contact Isn’t the Villain People Make It Out To Be

In this episode of Conversations With Toi, we dive into a growing and often misunderstood conversation: the belief that therapists are “encouraging” no‑contact and somehow fueling selfish behavior in the people who choose it. I unpack where this narrative is coming from, why it’s gaining traction, and what’s actually happening inside therapeutic spaces when no‑contact is discussed. We explore the difference between setting boundaries for emotional safety versus cutting people off to avoid accountability, and how the public conversation is blurring those lines. I also share real‑world context about how therapy supports healing, not isolation, and why the decision to go no‑contact is far more complex than social media soundbites suggest. If you’ve ever struggled with boundaries, felt judged for protecting your peace, or wondered how therapy fits into these choices, this episode offers clarity, nuance, and a grounded perspective.
