Over here at The Squeeze—we talk about it—\"it\" being our mental health and well being. Host Taylor Lautner's (no, not that guy, but she is married to that guy) introduction to mental health was at a young age, witnessing friends and family suffer in ways she couldn't fully understand. She started a nursing career in the peak of the pandemic and has been struggling with her own mental health ever since. Tay is joined co-host, husband Taylor Lautner, in addition to celebrity and expert guests to further the conversation surrounding mental wellness. At the end of the day, we're all pretty similar; even those living in the lime-est of lights can be weighed down by sour lemons. In addition to sharing coping strategies and stories, we hope that above all, this podcast offers the comfort of knowing you are not alone.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-29T22:21:14.996237+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-squeeze-5966094"},"episode":{"title":"Brooke Averick: Naming Your Emotions","slug":"brooke-averick-naming-your-emotions","published_at":"2026-05-27T11:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-squeeze-5966094/brooke-averick-naming-your-emotions","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-squeeze-5966094","url":"https://mgln.ai/e/369/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/DM22A/claritaspod.com/measure/pdst.fm/e/rss.art19.com/episodes/157c5b8b-47ae-4b27-836c-e797ccd7fcf3.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://mgln.ai/e/369/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/DM22A/claritaspod.com/measure/pdst.fm/e/rss.art19.com/episodes/157c5b8b-47ae-4b27-836c-e797ccd7fcf3.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"In this week's episode, Tay sits down with author, comedian, podcast host and lifestyle creator Brooke Averick! Brooke shares about blowing up on TikTok during Covid and what that growth looked like, meeting Connor Wood and how their friendship led to launching their podcast together, and what they cover on it. Brooke gets candid about her mental health and OCD journey, including the signs that showed up at a very young age, who first noticed she was struggling, and how starting therapy early shaped the way she understands herself today. She talks about what she thinks people often get wrong about OCD, how simply naming an emotion (like saying \"I feel anxious\") has been one of the most powerful tools in her toolkit, and the boundaries she sets with social media to protect her mental health. She also shares the signs she watches for when she needs to slow down and check in with herself, and the self-care practices that help her reset. Brooke then shares where the idea for her book Phoebe Berman's Gonna Lose It came from, what she's learned about herself through the writing process, and what she hopes readers take away from it.
