Not Fixed, Still here

There's a particular kind of exhaustion that sleep doesn't fix. A particular kind of struggle that therapy helps but doesn't solve. A particular kind of life that doesn't follow the recovery arc. Not Fixed, Still Here is a podcast about mental health—all of it grounded in science, shaped by lived experience, and honest about the gaps in between. Hosted by someone who has navigated depression, emotional and physical abuse, and over two decades of asking challenging questions about the mind, this show brings together psychology, neuroscience, and the therapeutic frameworks that actually helped—CBT, DBT, EFT, and NLP—not to tell you what to do, but to help you understand what's happening and why. Every episode moves between the research and the reality. The science is real. The uncertainty is named. And nothing gets wrapped up too cleanly. This is not a wellness show. It is not therapy. It is not a recovery story with a tidy ending. This conversation is for those who are intellectually curious, emotionally exhausted, and tired of receiving easy answers. Not Fixed, Still Here. The science of mental health, without the performance.
