If you've ever said "I'm fine" when you're anything but, this conversation is for you.
We sit down with two licensed therapists to talk honestly about mental health, faith, and the hidden struggles so many of us carry—and what it really takes to start healing.
In this episode, we explore:
Why "I'm fine" can be the most dangerous lie
What self-medicating looks like in everyday life
The hidden emotional toll on your family
Where real healing begins (hint: it's not therapy)
