Hello, you sentient ball of star dust. My name is Casey Davis. I'm a therapist and I'm an author of the book How to Keep House while drowning

where I talk about ways to make it a little bit easier to take care of yourself when you're overwhelmed, stressed, have mental health issues, physical health issues, or maybe you're just in a hard season of life.

Maybe you're looking for a place that you can come and listen to some practical advice. This is a podcast for all of the self-help rejects.

We're going to talk about skills for survival and self-kindness. And I'm going to leave the pop psychology at the door. I promise not to tell you to meditate or to journal.

We're just going to give you some really insightful conversations with hopefully some practical advice. So I don't believe you need to pick yourself up by the bootstraps.

I don't want you to just try harder and I don't believe that laziness exists. So join me over on struggle care where we can find compassionate solutions that help us function a little bit better.

I'm Carol Costello, former CNN anchor. I want to tell you about my podcast Carol Costello presents Blind Rage. It's the story of Phyllis Cottle who survived a horrific crime.

Detect is referred to her as a living homicide victim. I've covered every kind of violent crime imaginable but this one I can't shake.

Few victims take the lead in their own investigations. Season one of Carol Costello presents Blind Rage is available to binge now on evergreenpodcast.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

Thank you.
