OCD Success Stories and the Gift of Presently Bracelets | Ep 51

In this episode, I chat with Emily and Lindsay, two sisters who both experienced OCD differently. Emily didn’t recognize her symptoms until adulthood, while Lindsey’s were more stereotypical but no less impactful. They share their inspiring OCD success story and how they navigated their challenges, from existential fears to therapy and exposure work. Tune in to hear about the creation of their meaningful business, Presently Bracelets, which offers unique gift ideas like their beautiful OCD-inspired bracelets. As Black Friday approaches, Emily and Lindsey also offer advice on turning personal struggles into a business that makes a difference. Their journey is a powerful testament to perseverance, therapy, and finding strength through creativity.   Find your bracelet at www.presentlybracelets.com 00:00 Black Friday Gift Ideas with OCD Bracelets 02:15 Lindsey's OCD Journey 07:50 Emily's OCD Journey 12:42 Therapy and Exposure Work 17:32 Starting Presently Bracelets 28:26 Navigating Relationships with OCD 29:18 Support Systems and Living with OCD 33:40 Success Stories and Impact of Bracelets 34:54 Engaging Therapists and Mental Health Professionals 38:40 Advice for Aspiring Mental Health Entrepreneurs 49:34 Promotions and Discounts for Presently Bracelets 51:39 Conclusion and Upcoming Programs   ✨Content is proudly sponsored by NOCD.
