Episode Description
Season 16 of Sh!t That Goes On In Our Heads brought together powerful voices in mental health, resilience, and personal growth. Throughout the season, G-Rex and Dirty Skittles sat down with professionals, advocates, and individuals with lived experiences who shared honest stories about healing, boundaries, trauma recovery, and rediscovering identity.
Each episode peeled back another layer of what it really means to prioritize mental health in a world that often tells us to push through and stay silent. Our guests spoke openly about navigating difficult life experiences, learning to forgive themselves, and building healthier relationships with others and with themselves.
What emerged across these conversations was a powerful theme: authenticity. Healing begins when we allow ourselves to be seen honestly—without shame, without masks, and without the pressure to be perfect.
Some guests brought professional insight from decades of work in psychology, counseling, or advocacy. Others shared deeply personal journeys of overcoming adversity and reclaiming their voice. Together, these stories formed a season that reminded us of the importance of talking openly about mental health.
In this season finale, G-Rex and Dirty Skittles reflect on the lessons that resonated the most and celebrate the incredible community that continues to grow around these conversations.
Because when we share our stories, we help others realize they’re not alone.
