In this episode, Catholic therapist Adam Cross, LMFT (#116623) sits down with Dr. Tim White — psychology professor, researcher, and self-proclaimed workaholic — to explore what it actually means to rest in a culture that has forgotten how.

In today’s episode, I’m diving into the simple yet incredibly powerful idea of “feeling all the feels.” It’s a journey of truly acknowledging our emotions—no matter how heavy, uncomfortable, or even overwhelming they might be.
I share stories from my sessions and the importance of slowing down to connect with our bodies and emotions. It’s about giving ourselves the space to feel grief, sadness, or even anger and realizing that healing begins when we’re present with ourselves. It may sound simple, but the impact can be life-changing. And guess what? God is right there with us in the midst of it, inviting us into a deeper relationship of self-love and understanding.

In this episode, I’ll share why having a therapist who truly understands and honors your Catholic faith can be so meaningful. After all, our faith isn’t just a small part of our lives—it shapes who we are in the deepest way possible. But, I also get that finding a Catholic therapist isn’t always easy, especially if you live in a small state or a remote area. So, I’ll talk about practical ways to navigate that, including working with secular therapists when needed and when to be extra mindful. Plus, I'll be sharing some exciting news.
