Rooted and Rising

health, fitness, mental · EN

R&R is where mental health, storytelling, and real life collide. Hosted by Dr. Carmela Maxell—author, licensed clinician, professor, and mental health advocate—each episode is an honest, unfiltered conversation with yourself and the world. Expect clinical insight delivered without jargon, personal stories that don't ask permission, and the kind of truth that healers, creatives, survivors, and seekers have been waiting to hear out loud. For those carrying too much. For the therapists who need therapy. For the writers who bleed on the page. For anyone rooted in something real and still rising.
