Super Feeler
Super Feeler dives deeply into the experiences of living with strong and dysregulated emotions. From Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (EUPD), to other similar challenges, we explore it all.
Join us as we share powerful stories from individuals with lived experience, their families, researchers, and mental health professionals. Each episode provides a strength-based perspective on mental health, filled with humor, raw emotion, and validation.
Whether you’re navigating these challenges yourself, supporting a loved one, or simply looking to understand more about the complexities of emotional regulation, Super Feeler is here to inform, inspire, and connect. Tune in to find hope, understanding, and community.
Together, we explore the complexities of these conditions in a way that celebrates the beauty of feeling strongly.

Cultural Norms that Impact our Symptomology (feat. Bora)
Bora is a 31 year old engineer and a mother of two who immigrated from Albania to the USA as a child. She shares about the impacts of a variety of cultural norms (like that of her home country, xenophobia in the US, her profession, academia, and childcare services) that have had a profound impact on her mental wellness.
Stay tuned for a second episode with Bora where we'll dive into parenting.
Just a note: Laurie had some audio issues on this episode but thankfully Bora's audio is great after the 2 minute mark. Sorry about that!
Bora refers to an episode with Connor in this podcast. This is reference to an episode of a podcast called Bold Beautiful Borderline and the episode can be found here.
