    Ep. 25: Miley Montana (Feat. Isaac) | Identity, Authenticity, & Feeling Safe

    Ep. 25: Miley Montana (Feat. Isaac) | Identity, Authenticity, & Feeling Safe

    Happy Mental Health Awareness Month! The podcast is back for a discussion of identity, authenticity, and maintaining your mental health in the process of figuring all that out. I'm joined by Isaac (@isaacriverra), who is a dear friend that I met along my grad school journey. Isaac and I discuss our time working together as play-therapists, and talk about some of the TV I've been watching lately (namely Moonknight on Disney+ and Severance on AppleTV). Let me know your thoughts! Apologies for aspects of the audio on this episode; this was my first time trying out a live recording set up with more than one person. I know the episodes have been sparse this year but I appreciate all the love and support. Not sure where this particular podcast is headed after this but I'm keeping an open mind as always - thank you for exploring these ideas with me for the past 25 episodes! Be sure to follow me on my socials to stay up to date with what I'm doing moving forward.

Kris Caroline ,

Always a joy to listen!

I love Alex’s podcast because he talks in a way like you’re a friend, and each episode is like a conversation on the importance of a new area within mental health and spirituality. As he speaks you could relate in some way like, “I feel you!” Each episode is an open space to delve deep within yourself to tap in to how you are feeling internally and tap out of patterns that don’t serve you anymore. It’s amazing he brings guests that also is enlightening to hear about people’s lives and the intersection of that to caring for their mental health. Love his authenticity and vulnerability to share his own life. Will be a returning listener as always. Excited for all his future episodes because they are THAT good! 💛

Approved by the Lambily

I am always looking for positive podcast to listen to whenever I want to pause the world for a second and I’m so glad to have discovered this one. I discovered you through Twitch and I am so impressed how that app has lead me to many different avenues. Alex, you are doing Lambs work! Please continue to spread awareness on mental health and lead discussions on topics that some don’t talk about but most need to hear. I will definitely be tapping in.
