  • (Replay) Dr. Kate Truitt
    2025/03/10

    Distinguished psychologist and neuroscientist Dr. Kate Truitt takes her expert hat off and lets her hair down in today’s candid conversation with Sarah. The bestselling author of Healing in Your Hands and the new title Keep Beathing lays bare her personal odyssey through loss and trauma as well as the key to her renewal- the realization that she wasn’t the problem; her brain was. Wired from years of trauma to keep her ‘safe’, “Amy the Amygdala” was actually keeping her caught in a cycle of negative, intrusive thoughts. Listen to Sarah and Dr. Kate talk about the tenacity of that cycle and how to break it. Two phoenixes in their own right, Sarah and Dr Kate get raw and real, inviting all cycle breakers to join their odyssey (Thanks to Dr. Kate, we now know that a group of phoenixes is called an odyssey!).

Then, in an act of personal salvation, Aspen hiked the Pacific Coast Trail from Mexico to Canada. On this episode, Sarah and Aspen discuss the 2,650-mile, life-changing journey, Aspen's novels Girl in the Woods and Your Blue is Not My Blue, and 15 king size PayDay candy bars
