If you feel that quiet pressure to “get your life together” now that the holidays are over — but can’t quite define what that even means — this one’s for you.

We talk about why the New Year so often turns into a fear-based self-improvement project, why motivating yourself through criticism and urgency rarely works, and how “having it all together” is often just another name for high-functioning disconnection.

In this episode, I explore:

• Why you’re not broken and don’t need a total reinvention
• The difference between growth and anxiety-driven self-fixing
• Why willpower, shame, and fear aren’t sustainable motivators
• Integration vs. hyper-functioning
• Choosing themes over rigid goals
• Building self-trust slowly instead of forcing dramatic change
• How self-compassion can actually move you forward

This is a softer, steadier approach to the New Year — one that prioritizes sustainability, self-trust, and the long game over urgency and burnout.

On this episode of The Evergreen Rx, we’re diving deep into Chiron — the “wounded healer” of your birth chart — and how this single placement can radically shift your healing journey, your relationships, and the way you show up for yourself.

If you’ve never heard of Chiron before, don’t worry. Remy breaks it down from the very beginning. This is one you don’t want to skip because Chiron is big — it reveals the repeating emotional patterns you can’t seem to outgrow, the places you chronically feel “not enough,” and the wounds that quietly shape your identity, attachment style, and relational habits.

We explore:

• What Chiron actually is and what astrologers mean by a “Chiron wound”
• How to understand your Chiron sign, house, and the themes that follow you through life
• How these wounds show up and block you in your healing journey
• How Chiron influences attachment wounds, romantic patterns, and the types of people or experiences you’re drawn to
• What it looks like to turn your deepest pain into wisdom, purpose, and compassion
• Whether Chiron is something we “heal” in this lifetime — or something we learn to walk with differently

Ever pull away right when things start to feel too close? When your partner gets vulnerable, talks about the future, or expresses love, does your body go straight into shutdown-mode — like closeness is something you need to escape from?

You’re not alone. For people who lean avoidant, intimacy can feel threatening even when it’s everything you say you want. In this episode, we talk about:

• Why affection or emotional closeness can trigger fight-or-flight
• Deactivating strategies (like changing the subject) and why they bring temporary relief
• How avoidance forms as protection against shame, engulfment, or rejection
• The loneliness and exhaustion that can come with hyper-independence
• How to tell the difference between healthy space and running away from intimacy
• What staying “1% more” looks like in real time
• Building inner safety so vulnerability feels survivable, not suffocating
• Learning to tolerate being seen, wanted, and cared for

Closeness doesn’t have to feel like a trap — and you don’t have to choose between connection and your autonomy. This week, we explore how avoidant attachment shows up, how to gently expand your capacity for intimacy, and why you’re not actually “better off alone.”

When you lean anxious in attachment, even tiny shifts in someone’s tone, timing, or energy can feel like an alarm bell. One “I’m just tired” text can send you spiraling into worst-case scenarios, rereading conversations for clues, and bracing for rejection that isn’t actually happening. It’s exhausting — and it can feel impossible to tell the difference between intuition and anxiety.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why anxious attachment interprets neutral cues as rejection
• How hyperactivation leads to spiraling, overanalysis, and searching for reassurance
• The difference between external regulation and true emotional self-support
• Why even honest reassurance from a partner often doesn’t “stick”
• How to respond when your system floods — even if something is actually wrong
• Rebuilding internal stability so your sense of safety isn’t dependent on someone else’s mood
• Naming your needs directly instead of protesting, clinging, or guessing
• How self-worth, history, and past relational wounds shape your reactions today

You don’t need to abandon your needs to stop spiraling — you just need to learn how to hold them yourself. And from that place, closeness becomes something you can trust, not chase.

Ever catch yourself getting annoyed at the people you love — not because they’re doing anything bad, but because you’ve quietly been carrying the weight of the friendship? When you’re always the one checking in, holding space, or remembering the details, irritation can slowly harden into resentment.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why resentment builds when we don’t address small hurts in real-time
• How unspoken needs lead to emotional scorekeeping
• The anxiety of speaking up when past friendships didn’t respond well
• Why avoidance always creates more distance than an honest conversation
• How to bring things up early, before the irritation turns into a narrative
• The surprising intimacy that can come from naming a hurt without blaming
• What to do when someone can’t meet you where you are

Friendship doesn’t require perfection, but closeness can’t survive silence. Naming your needs isn’t dramatic — it’s how relationships grow.

Ever get something you really wanted — a new job, recognition, closure — only to feel a confusing mix of pride, sadness, or even guilt right after? You’re not broken or ungrateful — you’re just human. As we grow, our capacity to hold conflicting emotions expands, and that can make even “good” things feel complicated.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The psychology behind mixed emotions (and why your brain does this)
• The “upper limit problem” — how we unconsciously sabotage our own joy
• How guilt, anxiety, and shame can mask excitement or pride
• Cultural pressure to feel one way — and what happens when you don’t
• The power of naming multiple emotions at once
• Why moments of joy often stir grief for our past selves

Being human is rarely clean-cut. Sometimes joy brings grief, pride brings sadness, and love brings fear — but that doesn’t make any of it wrong. It just means you’re feeling the full spectrum of being alive.

You crave deep connection — but the moment someone actually meets you there, something inside you panics. You pull away, get distant, or convince yourself you’re not ready. You’re not alone — this push-and-pull between wanting love and fearing it is a common human experience.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why intimacy can feel both magnetic and terrifying
• A quick primer on attachment styles (and what they reveal about your patterns)
• How past pain and early attachment wounds influence current relationships
• Using current relationships as exposure therapy for closeness
• Naming your fear (“I want to be close, and I’m scared”) to build safety and space
• Learning to stay present in yourself while being present with others

This episode is all about bridging that gap between what you want and what you can tolerate — so closeness starts to feel less like danger, and more like home.

Ever feel like you’ve been doing so much work on yourself — therapy, journaling, inner child healing — that you’ve forgotten what it feels like to just live? When healing becomes your whole identity, even the tools meant to help you can start to feel heavy. Sometimes growth fatigue hits hard, and you just want life to feel simple again.

In this episode, we talk about:

• What healing burnout looks like (and why it’s totally normal)
• How self-work can become an addiction to “fixing” yourself
• Expanding your definition of healing to include joy, rest, and play
• Taking a break without “backsliding” or losing progress
• Why you’re not broken — and how to stop treating yourself like a project
• Letting life itself be part of your healing

You don’t have to earn your peace by working on yourself. Sometimes the most radical growth comes from simply being.
