Have you ever wondered, “What if Ghostface, Jason and Jigsaw had just done therapy or had a solid group of gal pals?”...Well, we did! In today’s special spooky Halloween episode Jamie & Meg “psycho” analyze some of horror’s most popular ghouls and give them a nice dose of Buddhist positivity. Maybe they’re listening from somewhere on the other side! Maybe they’ll stop stabbing people! Or maybe they’ll just come haunt us...HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Why do we wrap up our self-worth in jobs and money? Is it ok to quit therapy? Did Meg really kill off half her family in college? This week we get real, raw & honest about the stressors & shames that come from unemployment, and what happens when you admit “I’m not okay”... We also have a child ghost. Welcome to Episode 12! You’re seriously not a loser.

This week “CHRONIC” puts the ‘ick’ in sick. JK! Today’s episode isn’t about anything chronic! Meg and Jamie take a break from talking strictly about chronic issues and turn up the lol’s in this on-brand, “off-the-rails” episode. We get into “ick” (and more importantly our ANTI-icks), the importance of thanking yourself, and why you should always “FOLLOW THE FUN”! (#squee)

(Trigger Warning: Suicidal Ideation)
This week Meg opens up about her 2-year, ongoing battle with Long-Covid. In Part 1 we explore the difficulties of living without a clear diagnosis, gaslighting, caretaker fatigue, depression, guilt, shame, and the turning point that came after Meg’s darkest moment. We swear we sprinkle in a few lol’s, but if this one sounds too heavy for ya, we’ll be back to the full shenanigans in Episode 7!

Let's talk about sex, baby...or lack thereof. In this week’s episode, “Sex-pectations”, Meg and Jamie get curious about feeling “broken” sexually - Where did the idea of just jumping straight into bed with someone even come from? What is my sexuality? And why do we need our brains tickled before our pants come off? Let’s celebrate our unique genitalia and dating styles in this week’s sexual health episode!
