🎙️ Episode 04.02 – Breaking the Silence (Kid’s Version)

📅 Episode Length: 15 minutes 43 seconds

Have you ever felt like you shouldn’t talk about your problems? Maybe someone told you to just “get over it” or that therapy is only for people who are really struggling. But what if we told you that even superheroes need help?

In this episode, we explore:
✨ Why famous heroes like Demi Lovato, Lady Gaga, Michael Phelps, and Simone Biles speak openly about therapy and mental health.
✨ How bottling up emotions makes things worse—just like Elsa in Frozen trying to hide her powers.
✨ The difference between a herd and a tribe—and why finding the right people to support you matters.
✨ How every great hero, from Batman to Doctor Strange, has mentors and allies to guide them.
✨ What to do if your friends or family don’t believe in therapy—and how to find support when you need it.

💡 Key Takeaway:
Therapy isn’t about being “broken” or weak—it’s about getting stronger, growing, and learning how to handle life’s challenges. Even the greatest heroes have allies, coaches, and mentors who help them become their best selves.

🚀 Reflection Questions:

• Do you have a trusted mentor, teacher, or adult you can talk to when things get tough?
• Have you ever felt like Elsa, holding in your feelings until they explode?
• What superhero or role model inspires you? What mentors or allies helped them succeed?
• If you could talk to a coach or mentor about anything, what would it be?
