Therapy Words We Use Wrong

In this bold and thought-provoking episode of The Brave Talkshow, we're diving into the language of healing—and how it's being misused, misunderstood, and misdiagnosed in today's world. Words like boundaries, triggers, and trauma were meant to empower us. But somewhere along the way, they've been stretched, misused, and even turned into tools of control rather than connection. Are we protecting our peace—or avoiding growth? We're also unpacking the rise of self-diagnosis in the age of social media. When every scroll brings a new label or identity, how do we stay grounded in what's real, nuanced, and actually helpful? This conversation is honest, layered, and a little uncomfortable—in the best way. If you've ever questioned the way we talk about mental health, relationships, and personal responsibility, this episode will meet you right where you are. Come sit with us. Let's get brave about the words we use—and the way we use them.
