with Kelly McGlynn, LCSW

What happens when you’ve spent so much time in the patient’s seat that it shapes your entire purpose? In this episode, Jess and Jonesy sit down with psychotherapist Kelly McGlynn for a raw and honest look at what it really means to turn your personal healing into a professional mission.

Kelly shares how her own mental health journey led her to become a therapist later in life, how EMDR and DBT became pillars of her practice, and the surprising emotional weight that comes with holding space for others. We dive into secondary trauma, blurred boundaries, and why building a business from your pain is both powerful—and complicated.

This one’s for the founders, solopreneurs, and helpers who feel like the therapist in the room—even when it’s not your job.

Kelly is currently accepting new clients.

This one hits close. Jess and Jonesy are back in the studio with no guest, no outline, just real life and real energy.

Jess gets raw about slipping out of routine, battling the inner critic (say hi to Benjamin), and the mental spiral that can happen when your nervous system's off track. She shares how it feels to be "down" and the slow climb back to feeling grounded, clear, and alive again.

Jonesy adds his own take on how mental health and routines impact productivity, how he pivots when things get chaotic, and what Filipino stick fighting has to do with balance. (Yes, it’s a thing. Yes, it’s awesome.)

If you’ve ever second-guessed yourself, played small, or let fear drive the bus, this one’s for you.
