Q Ina Crisis

Author: Amy - Fellow Human September 3, 2025 Duration: 9:12
The Story in My Head often leads to expectations.... unrealistic ones! And to be honest I've had expectations of how people around me 'should communicate, should behave, and should provide' whenever I am experiencing angst or am in a crisis. Well, needless to say, my unrealistic expectations were not met and I was angry about it!!! I was hurt and I felt more alone. Today's quickie is about knowing we are not alone, even when we feel as though we are. Cause most o...

Ever feel like the whole self-improvement world is just too much effort? You’re not alone. Hosted by Amy, who describes herself as a Fellow Human, The Story in My Head: Healing & Self-Improvement for the Lazy is a refreshingly different take on personal growth. This isn't about rigid routines or pretending to have it all figured out. Instead, each episode feels like a candid conversation where Amy untangles the internal narratives-those persistent stories in our own heads-that breed fear and create unnecessary obstacles. You’ll hear honest reflections on the messy consequences of letting those stories run wild, all while navigating the intersections of mental health, fitness, and everyday life with a surprising dose of humor. The podcast deliberately avoids a polished, recipe-style approach, offering instead a meandering and raw journey. It’s for anyone who wants to explore healing and self-care but finds traditional methods daunting or disingenuous. By sharing her own dark spaces and struggles, Amy creates a relatable space that feels more like a chat with a friend than a lecture, proving that working on yourself doesn’t have to be a solemn, exhausting chore. Tune in for a genuine, often funny, and always human look at the stories we tell ourselves and how shifting them, even lazily, can change everything.
