Paperclips & Periods Podcast 5.1.2026: Finding Gratitude When Life Feels Heavy

In this episode, Dr. Emily K. Cabrera, EdD, MSN, CAGS, PMHNP-BC and Katie Krych, MSN, RN, PMHNP(c) explore what it means to notice gratitude even when worry feels present and persistent. When the mind is focused on stress, uncertainty, or “what if” thinking, it becomes easy to overlook the things that are actually supporting us day to day. Gratitude in these moments is not about ignoring worry or pretending everything is fine, but about gently widening perspective so that both concern and appreciation can exist at the same time. This conversation highlights how gratitude does not have to be complicated or profound to be meaningful. Sometimes it looks like appreciating something as simple as the color of your car because it does not show dirt as easily, which makes life feel a little more manageable. It can also look like noticing a warm cup of coffee in the morning, a quiet moment in the car, or a small window of calm during a busy day. From there, they expand into deeper forms of gratitude that often get overlooked during stress, such as appreciation for family, steady friendships, meaningful work, and a supportive social circle. These are the foundational parts of life that can fade into the background when worry takes over attention. They also discuss how worry can narrow focus, why gratitude can feel harder to access during heightened anxiety, and how intentionally noticing small and large blessings can help bring balance back into perspective. The goal is not to eliminate worry, but to create space for both reality and appreciation to coexist. This episode offers a grounded and realistic approach to gratitude that meets people where they are, especially in seasons where the mind feels full and overwhelmed. It closes with a brief reflection to help listeners identify one small and one meaningful thing they can appreciate in the present moment.

Paperclips & Periods Podcast 4.23.2026: We're Fine. Totally Fine.

Episode 11: – Paperclips & Periods Podcast In this episode, Dr. Emily K. Cabrera, EdD, MSN, CAGS, PMHNP-BC and Katie Krych, MSN, RN, PMHNP(c) talk about the things that women say don't bother them but absolutely do. The small stuff. The stuff that feels too minor to bring up but somehow lives rent free. A friend who never follows through on plans. Finally sitting down and your kid immediately needs something. Someone questioning why you bothered getting an advanced degree. Other people posting photos of your children without asking. Replaying a conversation in your head long after it's over. None of it feels "big enough" to say out loud, so it doesn't get said. It just gets carried. This episode is about naming those moments honestly, understanding why women are so quick to minimize their own reactions, and what it costs over time when nothing is ever allowed to actually bother you. It closes with a grounding exercise and a reminder that your feelings don't need to pass a threshold before they count.

Paperclips & Periods Podcast 4.10.2026: The Burden of Being Reliable

Episode 10: The Burden of Being Reliable – Paperclips & Periods Podcast In this episode, Dr. Emily K. Cabrera, EdD, MSN, CAGS, PMHNP-BC and Katie Krych, MSN, RN, PMHNP(c) talk about what happens when being the dependable one stops feeling like a strength and starts feeling like a trap. They explore how women often step into the role of the reliable friend, partner, parent, and colleague—not always by choice, but because someone had to, and they were the ones who showed up. Layered on top of that is the mental load—the invisible, relentless work of remembering, planning, organizing, and anticipating the needs of everyone around them, while their own needs quietly fall to the bottom of the list. From scheduling appointments and managing the household to making decisions at work and showing up emotionally for everyone in their circle, the mental load rarely gets acknowledged and almost never gets shared. Over time, that weight combined with the constant pressure to be the one with all the answers turns exhaustion into resentment. The hosts discuss how that slow burn shows up in relationships, parenting, and professional life, and why women so often suffer in silence before they ever say enough. The episode includes honest conversation about naming the mental load for what it is, recognizing resentment before it reaches a breaking point, setting boundaries without guilt, asking for help without over-explaining, and giving yourself permission to put down what was never yours to carry alone. It closes with a box breathing exercise and a reminder that being reliable should never come at the cost of your own peace.
