Welcome to Too Late to Pretend. If you’re here, I’m going to assume something: A part of you is tired. Not tired like “I need a nap.” Tired like… I’m tired of holding it together. Tired of performing. Tired of pretending you’re fine when your body is screaming, and your mind is doing backflips just to get through the day. So let me start by saying this: You’re in the right place. My name is Dr. Baldwin, Licensed Therapist and this is a podcast about mental health, nervous system regulation, relationships, healing, grief, boundaries, and the real work of becoming your most honest self.
