Welcome to the very first episode of This Way In!In this kickoff conversation, co-hosts Brittney Baxter Dameron (a licensed mental health therapist) and Amy Lotsberg (curious podcaster, everyday human, and your resident “lay person translator”) share how this show came to life and what you can expect as we move forward. We talk about:·        How a ghost-themed podcast sparked a whole new collaboration.·        Brittney’s background in trauma therapy, EMDR, and ego state/parts work.·        Why Amy wanted to bring a “regular person perspective” to big, complex mental health concepts.·        The unique woo-friendly approach we’ll take to exploring mental health, intuition, and everyday wellbeing.·        Future plans: deep dives into “parts of self,” TV and movie breakdowns (Shrinking, anyone?), listener Q&As, and guest conversations.·        Why sometimes the best ideas hit at 4 a.m. or while playing video games. This episode is lighthearted, a little rambling (in the best way), and sets the stage for a podcast that mixes practical psychology with curiosity, humor, and real talk.Resources MentionedUS Crisis Line: Call or text 988 for 24/7 free support.UK Crisis Line: Call 116 123 or text SHOUT to 85258. Subscribe now so you don’t miss our upcoming episodes—we’ll be releasing every two weeks.
