Mentality with Mallory Mallory King

It's so good to be back! With the return, the podcast got a new name!
In this deeply personal episode, I open up about the transformative journey I've been on over the past 10 months. I share the reasons behind my decision to take a step back from both work and my marriage, delving into the challenges I faced and the pivotal moments that led me to prioritize my well-being.
Central to my healing journey has been the exploration of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, a powerful tool that has helped me navigate through past traumas and rewire my brain's responses. I delve into the intricacies of EMDR therapy, discussing its profound impact on my journey towards healing and self-discovery.
I explore the importance of nervous system regulation in the healing process, shedding light on the role it plays in managing stress, anxiety, and emotional well-being. Through mindfulness practices and somatic experiencing techniques, I've learned to cultivate a deeper connection with my body and regulate my nervous system's responses.
Additionally, I offer insights into the steps my partner and I are taking to mend and strengthen our marriage. From open communication to couples therapy, I share the challenges and triumphs we've experienced along the way, highlighting the resilience and growth that emerge from facing adversity together.
Ultimately, this episode serves as a testament to the power of vulnerability, resilience, and the unwavering commitment to personal and relational healing. As I reflect on my journey thus far, I invite listeners to embrace their own paths towards healing with courage, compassion, and a steadfast belief in the possibility of transformation.
