    Journaling 101: Why it Works and What to do if Pen and Paper Isn't Your Jam

    In this episode, hosts Anna-Marie Inman, LCMHC, and Stephanie McCready, M.Ed., dig into the science behind why journaling works, and why the method matters far less than just finding the one you’ll actually show up for. They explore a variety of journaling techniques, including stream of consciousness and unsent letters to voice memos, art journaling, even ChatGPT. This episode also opens the door wide for the “I’m not a journaler” camp.

    Therapy 101 (Part 2): What Can Therapy Help With and How to Know When It's Working

    We’re All Winging It is a podcast dedicated to normalizing the “weird” stuff, simplifying the messy bits, and supporting you through life’s most challenging adventures. In today’s episode, hosts Anna-Marie Inman, LCMHC, and Stephanie McCready, M.Ed., get clear about what therapy is actually for. They walk through the symptoms, patterns, and stuck places therapy can genuinely help with, the hard limits of what it can’t fix — other people’s behavior, material circumstances, situations that need action instead of insight — and how to know if the work is actually working, including why progress is rarely a straight line.

    Therapy 101: What To Expect When Starting A New Therapy Journey

    We’re All Winging It is a podcast dedicated to normalizing the “weird” stuff, simplifying the messy bits, and supporting you through life’s most challenging adventures. In today’s episode, hosts Anna-Marie Inman, LCMHC, and Stephanie McCready, M.Ed., break down what to realistically expect when you start a therapy journey — from that first anxious phone call through your initial session and beyond.

    Set the Cup Down: Learn to Set Boundaries Without Feeling Like the “Bad Guy”

    Hosts Anna-Marie Inman, LCMHC, and Stephanie McCready, M.Ed., sit down to talk about something we all need but rarely feel comfortable doing — setting boundaries. Together they walk through how to recognize when a boundary is needed, how to communicate it clearly without over-explaining yourself, and what to do when people push back. They also tackle the guilt that so often follows when we finally do advocate for our own needs. Whether you’re the friend who always shows up to help with the move, the person answering work texts at midnight, or someone who’s never quite figured out how to say “I’ll get back to you,” this episode is for you. Because setting a boundary isn’t about being difficult — it’s about valuing your relationships enough to show up for them without running on empty.

  5. One Crazy Idea: How a client-turned-collaborator and her therapist decided to wing it — together.

    23 May

    One Crazy Idea: How a client-turned-collaborator and her therapist decided to wing it — together.

    Hosts Anna-Marie Inman, LCMHC, and Stephanie McCready, M.Ed., pull back the curtain on how a therapeutic relationship became the seed of a podcast. Stephanie, a former client, shares how Anna-Marie’s deeply human, wall-free approach to therapy transformed her healing journey — and why she felt compelled to share it with the world. Anna-Marie opens up about the thousands of supervised hours behind clinical licensure, her instinct to “read the room,” and the nudge from her youngest son that finally convinced her to try something entirely outside her comfort zone. Together they unpack the name, the mission, and what they hope listeners take away: that none of us have it figured out, and that normalizing the messy, complicated work of being human is the whole point.
