  • Alyssa Coscarelli (Alyssainthecity) shares her personal experience with skin picking disorder
    Apr 28 2023

    Got a question for me to explore? Text me 📲

    Dermatillomania (skin picking disorder) can affect many of us, but it's not so often that we know of others sharing the same or very similar experience. Especially those we follow, are inspired by and look to for confidence and style.

    That's why this episode's conversation with Alyssa Coscarelli - commonly known as @alyssainthecity - is a special one.

    I hope you enjoy this conversation.

    If you'd like to get in touch with Alyssa, or follow her on her adventures, you can check out her Instagram.

    Thanks for listening and supporting this podcast.

  • Chatting with BFRB Coach & Mental Health Consultant Chaille DeFaria
    Apr 21 2023

    Got a question for me to explore? Text me 📲

    In this episode, I speak to Chaille DeFaria, who is an Mental Health Consultant and BFRB Coach.

    Before helping so many people with their body focused repetitive behaviors, Chaille experienced her own compulsions through hair-pulling (trichotillomania).

    I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with Chaille - even getting a little teary-eyed! I hope you enjoy the conversation.

    If you'd like to learn more about Chaille, you can check out her website or visit her Instagram page.

    As always, feel free to follow and get in touch with me over on Instagram and Tiktok.

    Thank you for listening and supporting this podcast.

  • My experience with CANCER and skin picking disorder
    Mar 15 2023

    Got a question for me to explore? Text me 📲

    This is a different kind of episode as I discuss my current circumstance: navigating breast cancer and the treatment against it.

    Cancer of any kind is frightening as the enemy is within you. You’re forced to learn a different way of living and a new version of yourself.

    Along with treatment can come some nasty side effects including - in my experience amongst others - weight gain and moderate/severe facial and body acne. For someone with dermatillomania this is triggering, not to mention the mental and emotional toll which skin picking usually aids.

    I hope this episode brings awareness and support to those learning about, or battling against, cancer.

    If you’d like to follow my journey, I have a separate account at @kim.on.cancer (IG/TikTok).

    Thank you for your patience - more interview episodes are on their way!

  • Noémie shares her experience with skin picking disorder and the lack of Black representation
    Aug 4 2022

    Got a question for me to explore? Text me 📲

    PLEASE excuse how late this episode is! I have a back-log of wonderful guest episodes but personal life has decided to play a main character, recently. Thank you for your patience!

    In this episode, I chat to the wonderful Noémie who is based in Paris, France.

    After a chat on social media, it was clear this conversation was essential towards growth within our community, as there is still lots to be done to help non-white skin picking sufferers with their condition.

    I really hope you enjoy this discussion as much as I did, and please let me know if you can suggest a Black dermatologist who we can invite onto the show. I'll continue my research into this opportunity.

    Any questions or feedback, please drop me a message over on Instagram!

    As always, thanks for being awesome.
