    Kathryn Kupillas: Therapy, Burnout and the Power of Slowing Down

    For this conversation, we visited Kathryn Kupillas, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist at Inner Vision Psychotherapy in Los Angeles, to talk about something so many of us experience but rarely understand: burnout. As creatives, entrepreneurs and people living in a fast-paced world, we wanted to explore what burnout actually is, why it happens, and how we can start listening to what our minds and bodies are trying to tell us. Kathryn shares her approach to holistic therapy, depth psychology and somatic healing, while helping us unpack topics like perfectionism, anxiety, emotional safety, conflict, productivity and the importance of slowing down. We also talk about why emotions aren't meant to be ignored, how our bodies communicate what our minds often can't, and simple ways to reconnect with ourselves before reaching a breaking point. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, navigating anxiety, or simply looking to better understand yourself, this conversation offers practical tools and thoughtful reminders that healing begins by slowing down and listening inward. Learn more about Kathryn and the team at Inner Vision Psychotherapy, and follow Inner Vision on Instagram for more resources and insights on mental health and healing. — Follow @makingwaves.project on Instagram and explore more at ⁠makingwavesproject.com

    Gabri Segui: Talking About Grief When No One Else Will

    This week, we’re talking about something that touches all of our lives but often goes unspoken: grief. Gabri Segui, creator and host of the My Mom Died Podcast, joins us for an honest conversation about losing her mom unexpectedly and how that experience inspired her to create a platform where people can talk openly about loss. Together, we explore the isolation that can come with grief, the pressure to "move on," how loss changes relationships, and why it's so important to create space for difficult conversations. Gabri also shares how poetry, podcasting, and community have helped her navigate her own healing while helping others feel less alone. Along the way, we talk about the beauty of remembering the people we love and the ways they continue to shape who we are. Follow Gabri and the My Mom Died Podcast on Instagram and TikTok and listen to the full podcast on your favorite listening platform. This conversation is vulnerable, thoughtful, and a reminder that grief isn't something we "get over." It's something we learn to carry, and talking about it can make that journey a little less lonely. — Follow @makingwaves.project on Instagram and explore more at ⁠makingwavesproject.com
