Episode description

The fellas are joined by Jen, a psychotherapist who triumphed over selective mutism. Jen shares her high school experiences, where selective mutism kept her silent, even as she yearned to speak. Her journey through anxiety and isolation is both relatable and inspiring. Jen's transformation began when she found a group of girls who, like her, grappled with selective mutism. They formed a close-knit support system, offering the understanding and connection they all needed, without the need for words. Jen's breakthrough occurred at 17, when she finally found her voice. This episode beautifully illustrates how people can make a positive difference in the lives of kids with anxiety through love and support. Join us as we explore Jen's remarkable journey from silence to speaking out and the resilience of the human spirit. Join the post-episode conversation over on Discord! https://discord.gg/expeUDN
