| 1/16/26 | ![]() 42. The Healing Power of Far Infrared: Science, Soul, and Sauna | As I close out Season 1 of The Truth About Mental Health, I wanted to end with a conversation that brings us back into the body, into presence, and into what healing can look like when science and soul are no longer separated.In this episode, I sit down with Phillip Wilson, a pioneer in holistic health and far infrared therapy, to explore the profound healing potential of far infrared light. We talk about the science behind infrared therapy, how it differs from red light, and why far infrared has such a powerful impact on both mental and physical health.Phillip shares decades of lived experience, from his early spiritual awakening to witnessing tens of hundreds of people experience real, tangible shifts through far infrared sauna therapy. But this conversation goes beyond protocols and products. We talk about presence, nervous system regulation, and how creating space for the body to feel safe can open the door to deeper healing.This episode is about remembering that healing is not just something we chase or fix. It is something we allow when we slow down enough to be with ourselves.🤍 Thank you for being here for Season 1. For listening. For questioning. For feeling. And for being willing to explore what healing can truly look like outside the system.💻 Check out Relax Saunas website relaxsaunas.com 📱 Discover Relax Saunas on Instagram @relax_saunas & Facebook---------------------If you're interested in the $100 offer we mentioned in the episode, visit relaxsaunas.com select your product and get a discount with my code: ANDREA25---------------------Reach out to me on Instagram @andrea.clark.mftFollow @truthaboutmentalhealthpodcast on InstagramFollow @truthaboutmentalhealth on TikTok | — | ||||||
| 12/19/25 | ![]() 41. A Silent Sisterhood No One Wants To Join: Mother Hunger | So many women carry the ache of Mother Hunger in silence. We grow up believing our childhood was “fine,” yet our bodies tell a different story. The emptiness. The over-functioning. The longing we can’t name. And for so many of us, it takes becoming women, or mothers ourselves, to finally see what we survived.A raw conversation between best friends who read “Mother Hunger,” lived it, and are healing it.In this episode, I sit down with Jen Wernicke, a holistic nurse and nervous system expert, to talk about the mother wound, emotional neglect, and the grief that lives inside women who never got the nurturing they needed. We share our own experiences of childhood trauma and disconnection, the deep hunger for safety and attunement, and how these patterns show up in adulthood, in our relationships, our parenting, and our sense of self.We also explore the insights from the book “Mother Hunger” and why naming this wound is such a powerful part of healing. Jen brings a raw, grounded perspective shaped by her own survival story and the work she now does helping women shift out of chronic stress and finally feel safe in their bodies.If you’ve ever felt alone in your pain, confused by your triggers, or unsure why you carry so much responsibility and grief, this conversation will help you feel seen. You’re not broken. You’re not dramatic. You’re responding to a wound that began long before you knew how to name it.📕Grab this book: “Mother Hunger” by Kelly McDaniel, the inspiration for this episode.🔖 Check out Jen’s Free Guide "Mom Stress Reset: 3 Little-Known Ways to Chill Out"✅ Join Jen's Facebook Community: Mom's Who Snap💌 Subscribe to Jen’s Substack📱 Follow Jen on Instagram @jenwernicke & Facebook ---------------------If you're interested in my recommended red light therapy tools, visit boncharge.com and get a 15% discount with my code: MHM---------------------Reach out to me on Instagram @andrea.clark.mftFollow @truthaboutmentalhealthpodcast on InstagramFollow @truthaboutmentalhealth on TikTok | — | ||||||
| 12/5/25 | ![]() 40. Raising Emotionally Well Kids: What Conscious Parenting Really Means | So many parents are trying to raise emotionally intelligent kids, but no one tells them how much of the work begins inside themselves. Conscious parenting is not about perfection. It is about awareness, connection, and learning to respond instead of react. But most parents are never taught what that actually looks like in real life.In this episode, I sit down with Sammy and Cameron Millach to talk about what it really means to raise emotionally well children. We explore childhood brain development, boundaries with love, and the difference between control and connection. Sammy and Cameron bring a grounded blend of psychology and behavioral science to the conversation, helping parents understand why their kids act the way they do and what they truly need to thrive.We also talk about the reality of modern parenting. The pressures. The technology. The overstimulation. The moments where you feel triggered because your child touches something unhealed in you. This conversation will help you understand natural consequences, gratitude, emotional regulation, and why reparenting yourself is often the key to parenting your child well.If you want to raise kids who feel safe, seen, and emotionally equipped for the world ahead, this episode gives you the clarity, compassion, and practical tools to get there.💻 Join the Village Community and connect with supportive parents📚 Check out all of Raising The Future’s resources💌 Get in touch with Sammy and Cameron on Instagram @raisingthe.future---------------------If you're interested in my recommended sensory swing, visit https://outree.com/ and get a 24% discount with my code: MHM---------------------Reach out to me on Instagram @andrea.clark.mftFollow @truthaboutmentalhealthpodcast on InstagramFollow @truthaboutmentalhealth on TikTok | — | ||||||
| 11/21/25 | ![]() 39. Redefining Birth: Trauma Prevention, Autonomy, and Informed Consent | So many women walk away from birth feeling unheard, dismissed, or even traumatized, yet most are told to just be grateful their baby is “healthy.” But what if we started telling the truth about birth trauma and why it happens in the first place?In this episode, I sit down with HeHe Stewart, a childbirth educator, advocate, and maternity care reform expert, to unpack the hidden realities of modern birth. We talk about how systemic issues in healthcare, lack of informed consent, and cultural conditioning strip women of autonomy in one of the most sacred moments of their lives.HeHe shares powerful insights from over a decade of work helping families prepare for birth with evidence-based education and emotional support. Together, we explore how women can reclaim their agency, prevent birth trauma, and navigate the system without losing their power in the process.If you’ve ever felt like something about your birth experience didn’t sit right or you’re preparing to give birth and want to do it differently, this conversation will give you clarity, language, and tools to advocate for yourself every step of the way.📕 Grab HeHe’s Pitocin Guide💻 Get on HeHe’s “Avoid a C-section” Class💡 Check out all of HeHe’s resources www.thebirthlounge.com 💌 Get in touch with HeHe on Instagram @tranquilitybyhehe---------------------If you're interested in my recommended sensory swing, visit outree.com and get a 24% discount with my code: MHM---------------------Reach out to me on Instagram @andrea.clark.mftFollow @truthaboutmentalhealthpodcast on InstagramFollow @truthaboutmentalhealth on TikTok | — | ||||||
| 10/3/25 | ![]() 34. The Algorithm, Rage P*rn, and Your Mental Health | Most people think the danger of social media is just “too much screen time.” But what if the real cost is the way it hijacks your emotions, your intuition, and your mental health?In this solo episode, I dive into the unseen mental load of social media: how the algorithm feeds you rage-inducing content, why anger can feel addictive, and how the constant stream of information overloads your nervous system. I share my personal experiences with the pull of moral superiority online, and what I’ve learned about trusting myself instead of letting the algorithm dictate my focus.Have you ever noticed yourself scrolling, feeling outraged, and then realizing you don’t even know why you’re so angry?This conversation is about reclaiming your power by setting boundaries, filtering what you consume, and remembering that your mental health is worth protecting above all else.🎧 Jump into my masterclass: Soft Is Power™ and reclaim your femininity📚 Check out my guide: Her Over-Functioning Recovery Guide™💻 Visit my Mental Health Hub for more resources & how to work with me📲 Reach out to me on Instagram @andrea.clark.mft---------------------If you're interested in my recommended red light therapy tools, visit boncharge.com and get a 15% discount with my code: MHM---------------------Follow @truthaboutmentalhealthpodcast on InstagramFollow @truthaboutmentalhealth on TikTok | — | ||||||

Life After Losing a Child: How Grief Creates a New Polarity of Living | What if grief isn’t just about surviving but about being cracked open to a completely new polarity of living?In this episode, I sit down with Melani Sessa, founder of Grace and Grief Healing, to have one of the most profound and tender conversations we’ve ever had on this podcast. After the unexpected loss of her son, Melani found herself navigating not only the depths of sorrow but also the birth of a movement, a community where grieving mothers are met with faith, honesty, and presence.We talk about the truths most people never say out loud: how grief reshapes your body, mind, and relationships… how faith can anchor you when the ground has completely given way… and what it really means to show up for someone in loss.This isn’t about finding silver linings.

| 8/1/25 | ![]() 25. Modern Feminism, Polarity, and the War on the Soft, Safe Woman | What if the very movement that promised to free us is now keeping us guarded, resentful, and disconnected from our deepest desires?In this solo episode, I pull back the curtain on the shadow side of modern feminism, how it’s shifted from empowering women to perform independence, to subtly shaming softness, safety, and the desire to be held. I dive into my own journey with polarity, partnership, and nervous system healing, and why reclaiming the soft woman is the most radical rebellion of all.We talk about healthy leadership in relationships, mutual growth (without the mothering), and the difference between self-responsibility and hyper-independence masked as empowerment.

| 3/21/25 | ![]() 6. Identifying Propaganda and Critical Thinking | In a world where facts are nearly indistinguishable from fiction, how do you know what to believe?
