I’m Mariah Jeau and I’m a life & recovery coach. And I say ”F*ck Small Talk” to all forms of topics that tend to get labeled as taboo, hush-hush, or ”inappropriate.” We all have experience with love and loss, self-doubt, mental health, addiction, self-sabotaging behaviors, loneliness, and are all fighting for our right to be seen and heard. To belong. I’m a firm believer in telling the whole truth and holding space for people who are learning more about what it means to be human- to connect- no matter how uncomfortable those real conversations can feel.

Saturday Nov 25, 2023
Saturday Nov 25, 2023
In this follow-up episode** Mariah gets vulnerable and discusses the rut she's been in with her wellness and mental health. She shares a few recent personal life events that triggered her C-PTSD and caused her to impulsively 'hide' parts of herself in order to avoid the inevitable pain that comes with grief and loss. What was it like growing up with an abusive alcoholic father and being taught to hide the truth? And how is it still affecting the way she self-soothes and choices she makes when she's hurting? Mariah dives deeper into the topics of Spirituality, Addiction Recovery, and Complex PTSD (C-PTSD).
** Listen to Episode 2 (not episode 4, whoops!): Childhood Memories & C-PTSD (Part 1) before this episode!

Mariah discusses the importance of getting curious and asking deeper questions. Rather than judging or dismissing a certain subject, we would all benefit from asking, "what if there is more to learn?". She discusses the ways she questions stereotypes, talks about the danger of living life on auto pilot, and dives into recent client wins. She discusses the ways in which her inner critic tries to stop her from growing and changing, and how she counteracts that negative voice.
