đď¸ In this episode, we sit down with Britten Graydenâlicensed mental health counselor and master certified addiction professionalâfor a candid look at ego, emotional blocks, and the inner work required to move from isolation to real connection.
Drawing from her work with high-performing professionals, families in crisis, and individuals in recovery, Britten unpacks the common patterns that keep people stuckâfrom perfectionism and shame to control, fear, and the inability to ask for help. She shares how therapy becomes a space for deep emotional release, why boundaries are an act of clarity, and how vulnerabilityâwhen met with structure and trustâcan lead to genuine transformation.
Whether you're burning out, bottling up, or just trying to find clarity in the chaos, Brittenâs insights offer a grounded path back to resilience, honesty, and emotional strength that actually lasts.
