Broke and Almost Broken | Dr. K’s Best Realistic Advice
Dr. K responds to a listener on the edge facing eviction, job loss, and deep self-loathing with a grounded look at what it takes to rebuild when life falls apart. He explains how chronic stress hijacks the body and mind, making it impossible to think clearly or connect with others until basic stability is restored. Through a mix of neuroscience, compassion, and lived experience, Dr. K shows how to move from helplessness to small, concrete steps that restore control and dignity.
Topics include:
- How survival stress blocks motivation and emotional regulation
- Why material stability (food, sleep, shelter, income) must come before self-work
- The “Housing First” principle and what it teaches us about recovery
- Practical job-hunting tips: resume polish, in-person networking, showing up
- How walking helps discharge anxiety and unlock mental clarity
- Turning abstract negative thoughts into actionable, contextual steps
- Why burnout makes empathy—and social connection—feel impossible
