About this listen

Her Time to Talk is a feminist mental health podcast for women who are tired of chronic guilt, anxiety, people-pleasing, and burnout—and want real tools to feel better. Hosted by Meagan Clark, MA LPC NCC BC-TMH, licensed counselor and founder of Her Time Therapy, PLLC, Season 2 features the signature format “If ___ Were My Client”, using the books and TV shows you love to make therapy relatable, fun, and actionable.

Each episode unpacks the psychology behind characters that feel way too relatable and uses their stories to help you understand your own patterns, including:

  • Chronic guilt and difficulty for asking for what you need
  • People-pleasing and anxiety around disappointing others
  • Difficulty setting boundaries without guilt or panic
  • Emotional labor and always being the one who keeps it all together
  • Burnout from overfunctioning and never resting
  • Losing yourself in relationships or caretaking roles
  • Trauma responses like fawning, self-silencing, or self-abandonment
  • Low self-trust and fear of asserting needs
  • Reclaiming your voice, autonomy, and sense of self

Mental health content can feel heavy or abstract, but this podcast meets you where you are—through the stories, characters, and books you already connect with. By exploring these characters through a therapy-informed, feminist lens, Her Time to Talk provides practical strategies to reduce anxiety, set limits, and finally make space for your needs.

This podcast is for women who want:

  • Practical tools they can use today
  • Therapy insight that actually makes sense
  • A fun, story-based way to explore mental health
  • A feminist perspective that names the social conditioning behind their patterns

At Her Time Therapy, I work with women who carry a high emotional load—chronic guilt, people-pleasing, burnout, and trauma shaped by lifelong pressure to overaccommodate and stay quiet. This podcast is an extension of that work: a way to make therapeutic insight accessible, relatable, and empowering.


Tune in if you’re ready to stop shrinking yourself, understand your habits, and take steps toward confidence, clarity, and self-trust.

  • Intentions Over Resolutions: A Feminist Approach to Mental Health and the New Year

    Intentions Over Resolutions: A Feminist Approach to Mental Health and the New Year
    Dec 23 2025

    Send us a text

    As we close out season one of Her Time to Talk, this special end-of-year episode invites you to step into the new year with intention, self-compassion, and clarity rather than pressure, perfectionism, or burnout.

    Women are constantly told to do more, be more, and fix themselves through unrealistic New Year’s resolutions. When those expectations inevitably become unsustainable, they often fuel shame, negative self-talk, and a sense of failure. In this episode, we pause that cycle and explore a gentler, more empowering alternative.

    As a thank-you for closing out season one with us, this episode includes a free gift. Download Her Time to Heal: A Woman’s Guide to Starting and Succeeding in Therapy, a 30-plus-page guide created by licensed therapists specializing in women’s mental health. This resource is designed to support you whether you are new to therapy or looking to deepen your existing work.

    Thank you for being part of this community and for honoring your mental health. Your story matters. Your growth matters. This is your time.

    Many women find themselves caught in distressing cycles of overthinking. You replay a moment again and again, searching for clarity or safety, only to feel more overwhelmed and disconnected from yourself. In this episode, we explore why these patterns are so common for women and trauma survivors, how your nervous system confuses past and present threats, and what it truly takes to interrupt the spiral.

    You will learn a simple two-step process for moving from rumination into grounded, intentional action. This approach blends nervous system regulation, mindful reframing, and small, compassionate steps that help you reclaim your energy and focus.

    If you're ready to shift out of survival mode and into more clarity, calm, and self-trust, this episode offers an accessible way to begin.

  • The Mental Health Benefits of Taking Action

    The Mental Health Benefits of Taking Action
    Nov 24 2025

    Send us a text

    In this episode of Her Time To Talk, Megan explores why activism is not only compatible with therapy, but essential to mental health and feminist clinical practice. Drawing from her experience at the October 18th No Kings protest in Savannah, Georgia, she reflects on the emotional complexity of showing up, the power of collective action, and the realities of navigating safety and privilege in today’s political climate.

    Megan discusses the growing research that links pro-social behavior, community engagement, and collective action with improved wellbeing. She breaks down accessible forms of activism for listeners who may not feel safe attending protests, including daily conversations, creative expression, financial and resource-based support, civic participation, community building, and rest as resistance. Throughout the episode, she illustrates how small, value-aligned actions can reduce feelings of helplessness and build agency during times of political fear and uncertainty.

    This conversation centers the feminist therapy principle that the personal is political and emphasizes why therapists cannot, and should not, pretend to be blank slates when systemic forces shape clients’ lives so directly. Listeners are invited to explore their own relationship with activism and choose one small, meaningful action that feels safe, possible, and restorative.
