Our most listened-to conversations about family relationships, mental health, and resilience
This fall, Nexus Family Healing launched a new podcast, In This Family, hosted by our President/CEO Dr. Michelle K. Murray. Each episode features guests who share how mental health has shaped their lives and families. Healing begins when we share our stories, support one another, and start honest conversations.
Before we take a short break, we’ve rounded up our top episodes that made an impact. Whether you’re revisiting your favorites or discovering them for the first time, here’s your ultimate guide to the best moments from our podcast.
Gary Gulman
Way back in October, Comedian Gary Gulman appeared in our first episode to share his personal journey through depression and anxiety, the moments that almost broke him and the path that led him back to hope. His story is a powerful reminder that mental health struggles are human, and no one must face them alone.
Dr. Joseph Lee
Addiction is complex — and healing is possible. Dr. Michelle K. Murray sat down with Dr. Joseph Lee, President and CEO of the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation, for an insightful conversation about addiction, recovery, and the power of family in the healing process. Dr. Lee shares how families can move beyond guilt and blame to focus on connection and support — key elements in helping loved ones find a better tomorrow.
Meg Kissinger
In this second episode of the series, investigative journalist and bestselling author Meg Kissinger discussed her family’s story of mental illness, loss, and resilience – and her fight to break the stigma.
Bill Corbett
Comedian and writer Bill Corbett from Mystery Science Theater 3000 joined us for a powerful conversation about living with anxiety, navigating addiction, and finding a path to sobriety. In this episode, Bill shared his honest reflections on growing up without mental health language, breaking cycles and parenting with openness and compassion.
