  • Let’s Look at Our Brains! 🧠 The Power of Neurofeedback with Cory Williams
    2026/10/14
    What if putting a bunch of electrodes on your head could tell us something about your anxiety, attention, or how your brain works? Is this legit neuroscience, or are we about to accidentally join a cult? 🫠We've all heard the internet wellness gurus telling us to "rewire our brains," but WTF does that actually mean? This week, we're joined by Cory Williams, MS, BCN, qEEG-D, a neurofeedback and brain mapping specialist at Nashville Family Wellness, to separate the actual science from the wellness-industrial-complex nonsense.We're breaking down what brain mapping can (and can't!) tell us, how neurofeedback works, and whether these approaches can actually help with things like ADHD, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Plus, we're getting into the fascinating possibilities of using brain activity to help guide mental health treatment—and why a fancy brain scan doesn't tell the whole story.And because we're us, there's also some Kacey Musgraves fangirling, deeply unhinged Nutter Butter marketing, and a healthy dose of nerdiness along the way.What You’ll Learn:09:58 – What qEEG brain mapping actually measures (and what it doesn't).13:33 – How neurofeedback works and what the research says about its effectiveness.21:39 – Why a brain map can't diagnose mental illness on its own.22:20 – Whether brain mapping can help guide mental health treatment and medication decisions.29:50 – How trauma and neuroplasticity relate to brain functioning.39:30 – How to tell whether neurofeedback is actually working—and separate legitimate neuroscience from overhyped wellness claims.Resources Mentioned:🌈✨ Kacey Musgraves’ Official WebsiteDeep Questions with Cal Newport🍪🫠 Nutter Butter’s Unhinged Instagram🐉 Robin Hobb’s Farseer TrilogySaving Honeybees from PesticidesConnect with Cory:Cory Williams, MS, BCN, qEEG-D — Nashville Family WellnessLearn more about Cory and his work in qEEG assessment, biofeedback, neurofeedback, and neuromodulation.Nashville Child & Family Wellness Center websiteNashville Child & Family Wellness Center on IG: @nashvillefamilywellnessConnect with Us:Send a story or ask for advice: butforrealpod@gmail.comBut For Real on IG: @butforrealpodSend us a story for The Lore segmentSend in a request for advice for our Step Into My Office segmentNow That's What I Call...

  • The One About People-Pleasing 🫣
    2026/09/30
    When someone asks what you want and your automatic response is “I don’t care, whatever you want”… even though you absolutely DO care… congrats, babe. We might need to talk about people pleasing. 😬In this episode, we’re breaking down why so many of us are more comfortable disappointing ourselves than disappointing someone else. We talk about where people-pleasing behaviors come from, how they differ from simply being kind or considerate, and how to start tolerating the discomfort of having needs, saying no, and—gasp—letting someone be disappointed in you.Because the goal isn’t to stop caring about other people. It’s to remember that you’re one of the people whose feelings matter, too.What’s in the Episode:00:00 — Welcome + People Pleasing 10101:29 — Tea & Crumpets05:28 — The DSM: People Pleasing, Fawning + Boundaries37:15 — Now That’s What I Call— OKAYY!41:41 — Fire Dumpster Phoenix46:20 — Wrap-UpResources Mentioned in This Episode:Chellie CarlsonChellie Carlson on InstagramThe Five-Star Weekend on Peacock“Same Drugs” by Chance the Rapper“Paper Bag” by Fiona AppleGood News Network — Nashville songwriter rescuing foxes with mangeGood News Network — Hotel staff gives lost stuffed animal the VIP treatmentConnect with Us:More about the pod / past episodes: https://gaiacenter.co/podcastWatch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ButForRealPodNow That's What I Call...

  • WTF is Forest Therapy with Georgia Bromehead 🌲
    2026/09/16
    What if you know you’re supposed to touch grass… but you don’t particularly enjoy bugs, dirt, hiking, sweating, or being outside unless it’s approximately 72 degrees with a light breeze? 😌🌿This week, Val and Em sit down with forest therapy guide (and Emerson's grad school friend/ cohort mate) Georgia Bromehead to talk about what “connecting with nature” actually means when you’re living in a city, glued to a screen, overwhelmed by climate change, or simply not an Outdoors Person™.And good news: you do not need to buy hiking boots, memorize bird calls, or disappear into the wilderness for three days.Georgia breaks down forest therapy as a slow, relational practice rather than another wellness task to optimize, including how something as simple as holding a blade of grass, sitting with a houseplant, watching a candle flame, or noticing one tiny piece of the living world around you can help rebuild connection. We also get into eco-anxiety and ecological grief, why despair about the planet is not automatically something to pathologize, and how staying connected to the Earth can actually help us stay engaged rather than shutting down.Basically: consider this your permission slip to microdose nature.This episode covers:(00:00) Meet Georgia Bromehead — forest therapy, nature connection, and touching grass in the age of AI(02:00) Tea & Crumpets — analog habit trackers, archetypes, and Disney World(07:00) Step Into My Office — what if you just… don’t like nature?(10:00) Microdosing Nature — houseplants, botanical gardens, and starting tiny(14:00) What Is Forest Therapy? — forest bathing, sensory awareness, and getting out of your head(17:00) Bodies Without Performance — embodiment, agency, and letting your nervous system chill(20:00) Eco-Anxiety + Planet Grief — caring deeply without drowning in despair(26:00) Nature + Attachment — why trees can offer a surprisingly sturdy kind of support(28:00) Start With Your Senses — a low-pressure way to practice presence anywhere(31:00) Nature in the Therapy Room — regulation, intuition, and decentering the therapist(32:00) ...but for REAL — come to your senses(33:00) Now That’s What I Call— OKAYY! — “Let’s Not Shit Ourselves” by Bright Eyes(36:00) Dumpster Fire Phoenix — finding agency, community, and some genuinely good news(39:00) Rapid Fire Q&A — apps, guilty pleasures, surviving the woods, and Nashville ramen slander...but for REAL: Eco-anxiety isn’t automatically a sign that something is wrong with you. Sometimes it’s evidence that you are paying attention to something painful and real. The goal isn’t to “fix” your grief, stay hopeful 24/7, or single-handedly recycle your way out of climate collapse. It’s to let yourself feel the heartbreak, rage, beauty, and wonder—and find ways to stay in relationship with the world instead of numbing out from it.Resources + Stuff Mentioned in This Episode:King, Warrior, Magician, Lover by Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette: https://jungchicago.org/product/moore-compilation-within-mp3/Robert Moore archetypes lectures on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGQCeQzETqo&list=PL879965yJx44OcJaYHi1fO5IZRH7Fie0FGaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center — indoor gardens and atriums: https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/bnago-gaylord-opryland-resort-and-convention-center/overview/Missouri Botanical Garden: https://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/Let's Not Shit Ourselves by Bright Eyes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCxgTf4Iv88Now That’s What I Call...

She was intrigued.Moving home to Tennessee, Georgia taught herbal supplement education at a local pharmacy.She listened to customers talk about anxiety, depression, and fatigue — and saw firsthand how disconnected from nature and their own bodies many people felt.Georgia became the first practicing certified Guide with ANFT in Nashville and has been guiding since 2019.She has given talks and interviews about the healing power of nature connection.
