Season 8 Intro: New Name, Same Real Talk

Author: Dr. Dawn Gullette Crosson, Psy.D March 31, 2025 Duration: 1:04

Welcome back to Sanity Sessions: Real Talk, Season 8— and if you’re new here, welcome to the space!

In this short intro episode, Dr. Dawn shares an exciting update about the evolution of the podcast. While Sanity Sessions has always focused on trauma and healing, we’re now widening the lens to include overall wellbeing — because let’s be real, healing doesn’t stop at trauma.

From burnout to balance, stress to self-care, we’re diving into what it means to feel whole. And here’s the truth: the same strategies that help manage trauma are powerful tools for navigating everyday life too.

It’s still real. Still grounded. Still here to keep you sane through the madness — and always keeping it real.
