Can We Talk Podcast

Kelsie, a licensed therapist, and Andres, a longtime friend and commercial pilot, come together each month to explore the real, relatable side of mental health. With Kelsie’s grounded therapeutic insight and Andres’s curious, compassionate perspective from thousands of feet in the air, they blend clinical wisdom with everyday life in a way that feels both comforting and refreshingly human. Their conversations dive into healing, stress, relationships, resilience, and the messy parts of being a person—always with humor, heart, and honesty.

Together, they create a space where listeners feel seen, supported, and understood. Kelsie brings depth and clarity to topics that often feel overwhelming, while Andres asks the questions so many people are thinking but don’t always know how to put into words. The result is a podcast that feels like sitting with two trusted friends who remind you that growth is possible, healing is doable, and you never have to navigate life alone.

Back in November we sat down with Michaela for an open and heartfelt conversation about the challenges that often show up in relationships. We talked through challenges in conflict like avoidance, gender roles, hyper-independence, intellectualizing emotions, and stoicism — and how they can quietly shape the way we show up for ourselves and for one another. With her experience in supporting couples in therapy, she shared concrete tips on ways to navigate conflict.
