Let’s talk about therapy—without the shame, fear, or “is something wrong with me?” energy. In this vulnerable and laugh-out-loud episode of The Call Your Mom Podcast, Sierra and Holly open up about their experiences with therapy—from teenage counseling and marriage struggles to generational stigmas and cognitive behavioral breakthroughs. Whether you're curious about therapy, in it, or still on the fence, this episode offers real-life stories, modern insight, and practical reasons why therapy is becoming a staple for 20- and 30-something women. They unpack why our generation is more open than ever, what it looks like to “heal your relationship with you,” and how therapy helped them become more patient, emotionally grounded, and truly present. You’ll walk away with a fresh understanding of why therapy isn’t a sign something’s wrong—but a brave step toward becoming your healthiest, happiest self.
