That Foreign Feeling: Recent Episodes
The Butterfly Path
The struggle with mental health, grief, or loss may be something you deal with on a daily basis or something you have never felt before. You may not know what you are feeling exactly, but you know something is different. You may not be able to explain it or understand it. All of these feelings are what we call ‘That Foreign Feeling’.

Life is unpredictable, it’s bitter sweet, and through the ups and downs we sometimes forget the gift of laughter. So join some of our hosts of That Foreign Feeling today as we chat about mental illness and comedy. One snippet in an article we reference fromverywellmind.com in this episode says, “Being able to laugh at stuff can also relieve stress by changing your perspective. When you view situations as threats, stress levels increase. Shifting to a mindset that allows you to see these situations as challenges can transform this into what is known as eustress, a "good stress" that helps you feel more empowered and resilient.” So tune in for a light hearted chat, laughter included, and make sure to comment or email us at thatforeignfeeling@gmail.com with feedback! Wee’d love to hear from you!

Welcome back to That Foreign Feeling Season 2! On this episode we chat about a topic that we know will hit home with our listeners, mental health and accessibility. One of our main goals is to help provide resources that help make mental health more accessible. Join Anna, Niccy, and Steph as we talk about issues that we feel play a part in resources not being as accessible as we wish they could be. We cover topics such as insurance problems, lack of providers and wait times, lack of awareness, and our thoughts on what can be done. If you have any thoughts, knowledge, tips, or even questions on these topics, make sure to reach out to us, we’d love to hear from you!

Thanks for joining us on Episode 5 of our 2nd Season here at That Foreign Feeling! Today you’ll be hearing our interview with Ryan… a woman both Grace and Steph (your hosts for this episode) could relate to on so many levels, from grief to mothering, and more. Ryan is a child and family therapist, mom, and wife. We were connected with Ryan through instagram, intrigued by her journey that she was taking followers on as she studied to pass her licensing exam. From a young age she new she wanted to help others and was interested in both the mind and body. It was a significant loss of a parent that solidified the path of her trajectory, inspired by the professionals that held her and her families hands as they walked through their loss. With a heart of gold and admirable passion for her calling, we know you’ll love this chat as much as we did!
Check out Ryanne on Instagram @ryanne.Mellick where she focuses on parent coaching, mindful parenting, childhood mental health, and mental health education. For even more info, head to her website ryannemellick.com .

This episode was filmed a couple years ago, but still rings true. Anna and her older brother Ben, who both stopped drinking alcohol ironically both around the age of 25 sit down to discuss alcohol and sobriety.
We wanted to launch this episode as another resource whether you are sober curious, want to partake in Dry January, Sober October, or don't drink yourself and don't want to feel alone. Or you might drink (and that's OK!! We are not judging those who do. Some of us just lose their privilege to drink, or can't handle their alcohol like some.)
We hope you enjoy this episode about alcohol and sobriety.

Meet Kelli Espiritu! Kelli is a wife, momma to 4 boys -3 that run and 1 that flies, and the Founder, Director, and Heart behind Halos of the St. Croix Valley, a hometown non-profit supporting families experiencing the loss of a child emotionally, financially, and ongoing from ages 0-20, in New Richmond WI.
We visited with Kelli to talk about Halos, Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month, and her personal journey of “that foreign feeling”- the mental health ups and downs that come with walking the path as a bereaved parent.
Not only did we get her take on these topics but an inside view on how grief is different for everyone, how your story matters and can help others, how normal it is to be in fight or flight mode as you grieve, and the reality of seeking a healthy balance that enables you to work hard but love your family harder.

This episode I was able to sit down with my big brother to talk about his sobriety in honor of April being Alcohol Awareness month.
After an incident that happened in December of 2017 -- Ben was faced with either changing his ways and coming to terms with his alcohol use or continue his unhealthy habit and putting more stress on our family and most importantly himself after losing our dad that June. We are super proud of how far Ben has come! He didn't have to seek outpatient treatment, but worked hard to live a healthier life.
Disclaimer: This is not to shame anyone who drinks alcohol! Some are able to drink responsibly, my brother and I -- needed to take a much needed/overdue hault to touching alcohol.
