Guilt After Growth, Crying Under Pressure & Avoiding Anger (Couch Talks)

We kick things off with an email from a husband who’s made it through the early stages of therapy and is facing something people rarely talk about: the guilt and regret that can come with new self-awareness. Amy and Kat walk through the emotional J-curve of growth, why feeling worse can actually be a sign you’re healing, and how to take responsibility without sinking into shame. Next up, a big-hearted mom dealing with a high-conflict co-parenting situation and the fear of heading back to court asks what so many of us quietly wonder: How do I stay composed when I tend to cry under pressure? Kat shares ways to ground yourself when your nervous system tries to take the wheel. Plus, we talk about avoiding anger, a book recommendation (Theo of Golden), and more. Have a question for us?
