Who we are
Your brain has been holding onto some stuff.
Let's talk about it.
Brain Boogerz is a mental health and personal growth podcast for people who are ready to question the patterns, beliefs, and habits that have been living rent-free in their heads — and actually do something about them.
Psychology. Spirituality. Real talk. No pedestal.
We cover the frameworks that actually help — attachment theory, cognitive biases, emotional regulation, identity, and more — alongside things like Celtic seasonal cycles, deconstruction-safe spirituality, and the kind of stories that make you go "wait, that's me."
Every episode blends evidence-based psychology with lived experience. Because theory is great, but you came here to grow — and that takes more than a textbook.
No clinical distance. No toxic positivity. Just a geriatric millennial with a coaching background, a deep reading list, and a real commitment to meeting you exactly where you are.
You might be in the right place if…
You're somewhere between "I've done some work on myself" and "okay but why do I keep doing that"
You want mental health content that respects your intelligence and your life experience
You're Gen X, Millennial, or Gen Z and you're tired of wellness content that feels either too clinical or too fluffy
You've been burned by toxic positivity and you're looking for something honest
You're curious about the intersection of psychology, spirituality, and practical growth
No judgment. No prerequisites. Just come as you are.

Hi, I'm MJ.
Geriatric millennial. Wellness coach. Bodybuilding coach. Lifelong overthinker who finally put the overthinking to work.
I started Brain Boogerz because I kept having the same conversations — with clients, with friends, with myself — about the mental patterns that keep smart, capable people stuck. I figured if we were all dealing with the same brain boogerz, we might as well talk about them together.
I'm not a therapist, and I'll always be upfront about that. What I am is someone who has done a lot of personal work, read a lot of books, coached a lot of people, and genuinely believes that growth is possible at any age, in any season of life.
This podcast is a peer conversation, not a lecture. Pull up a chair.
New episodes drop weekly. Don't miss one.
