What if some of the stories we have been told about our own minds are not the whole truth? This one is for anyone who has ever been handed a label, a prescription, or the quiet belief that they must simply manage what they feel for life.

Psychotherapist Yildiz Sethi joins Sana to question the line between managing symptoms and truly healing, exploring the subconscious roots of distress and how we might gently reclaim our own agency.

About the Guest:

Yildiz Sethi is an Australia-based psychotherapist, author, and innovator in mind science with more than 25 years of experience. She is the founder of Emotional Mind Integration, Rapid Core Healing, and PTIT Trauma Recovery, and hosts the podcast Crazy Normal for Better Mental Health and Wellbeing.

Key Takeaways:

• A diagnosis is not always a life sentence. With the right support, much of what we carry can ease.
• Managing symptoms is not the same as healing the cause that sits underneath them.
• Most of what drives our patterns lives in the subconscious, beyond what talking alone reaches.
• The brain is neuroplastic. Gently shifting negative self-talk can rewire it over time.
• Naming a feeling out loud, with a deep breath, can help release it, then turn toward getting better.
