Buckle up, mamas! Today's episode we dive into the world of Justine, a psychotherapist and the founder of her private practice, Carino Counseling. Justine specializes in treating anxiety disorders, depression, grief, and provides family and couples therapy. Her advice and expertise have been featured in Cosmo, The Huffington Post, Real Simple, Elite Daily, and News 12.

 

And during our conversation, we experienced the power of Justine's insights, particularly for anxious, ambitious individuals, especially those who identify with the type A personality. We chatted on topics like delegation, setting boundaries, and effective coping mechanisms for reducing anxiety through mindfulness and positive self-talk. Justine graciously shared some of the exercises she uses in her therapy sessions, providing us with a glimpse into her therapeutic approach. And by golly, her sense of humor was incredible, spending time with her was truly a pleasure.
