In this mini-sode, the conversation challenges a modern habit that’s quietly damaging relationships and mental clarity: text messaging as a primary form of communication. The key issue isn’t convenience—it’s distortion. Text strips away tone, timing, facial expression, and context, making it dangerously easy to misread intent, assume the worst, and create conflict that never needed to exist.

You’ll hear why people are increasingly trying to live a full emotional life through a phone screen—and how that shift fuels anxiety, misunderstandings, and avoidable stress. We explore the internal side of the problem: how the mind fills in missing information, loops on stories, and turns ambiguity into suffering. The takeaway is practical and immediate: if you want clearer relationships, calmer decision-making, and fewer unnecessary blowups, you need better communication channels than a text thread.

This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma. But just so we're super clear: I’m not a licensed therapist, mental health professional, or anything close. I’m just a human sharing stories, lessons, and life hacks based on personal experience and a whole lot of curiosity.

So, while you might find some golden nuggets here, this is not therapy and should never replace professional mental health care. If you or someone you love is going through it, please—seriously—reach out to a licensed therapist or healthcare provider. You deserve the real deal.

In this mini episode of Let’s Get Naked, Anne kicks off the Elementary EQ series with a brutally relatable topic: the traffic tantrum—and what it reveals about emotional intelligence. From blinkerless lane changes to blocked intersections, traffic becomes the perfect mirror for how quickly adults hand over their mood, energy, and nervous system to total strangers.

Anne and Cameron break down why traffic rage isn’t about the road—it’s about misplaced regulation, wasted emotional energy, and unexamined habits. Using the concept of finite “energy currency,” they explore how losing your cool over minor inconveniences drains the same resources you need for presence, joy, and connection later in the day. The episode reframes traffic as low-hanging fruit for EQ growth—a daily opportunity to practice self-awareness, restraint, and emotional maturity.

Blending humor, blunt truth, and practical reframes, this conversation challenges listeners to stop personalizing inconvenience, recognize toddler-level reactions in adult bodies, and intentionally choose the “chill way.” At its core, this episode is about reclaiming agency over your emotional state, conserving energy for what actually matters, and learning how small moments of self-regulation can create outsized change in everyday life.

In this brutally honest and refreshingly relatable episode, Anne sits down with Brittany Karber to unpack what really happens when you step away from social media—and why the freedom is far deeper than anyone admits. Brittany shares how cutting off apps transformed her mental health, friendships, and daily energy, explaining everything from “social media food poisoning” to addictive rabbit holes, retinal-scan level app locks, and the unexpected depression ebb-and-flow that comes with detoxing your brain from constant comparison culture. She opens up about losing friends, rediscovering real life, hosting intentional dinners, reconnecting with nature, and how unplugging made space for what she calls “The Anne Project,” a personal evolution built on clarity instead of chaos. If you've ever wondered whether deleting the apps might change your life, Brittany’s story will hit you harder than you expect—and she might even convince you to do it.

Brittany Karber is the daughter of Anne Karber, so she is destined to succeed, naturally! She has traveled many places, met many people, and shared many experiences with the world around her. Since Brittany was able to, she has been passionate about cleaning and organizing; like OCD, but in a cool way. Brittany loves being outdoors in any way, playing any kind of games (board, card, court, video, etc.)

In this mini episode of Let’s Get Naked, Anne sits down with her husband, Cameron, for The Naked Truth About Happily Ever After Getting to Know Each Other in the Deep End—a candid conversation about why lasting love can’t survive in the “kiddie pool” of surface-level connection.

Anne challenges couples to stop performing, stop numbing out, and start building real intimacy in the “deep end”: the honest, vulnerable space where you talk about what actually shaped your day, what triggered you, what you desire, and what you’re afraid to say out loud. Cameron expands on what the deep end truly means—sharing the thoughts, needs, fantasies, fears, and private truths most people avoid in public—but that strong partnerships must learn to hold with care.

Together, they break down a practical relationship shift that helped them rebuild trust: ground rules for hard conversations, including the discipline of assuming your partner is coming from a good place, slowing down reactive patterns, and asking better questions before defensiveness takes over. The takeaway is direct: real “ride-or-die” connection is made in the trenches—through intentional communication, emotional safety, and the courage to be fully seen.

In this powerful conversation, Anne sits down with Chad Scott to explore the raw intersections of anxiety, emotional intelligence, drinking culture, and the unexpected healing power of dark tourism. Chad opens up about his lifelong struggle with anxiety, how society normalizes alcohol as a coping mechanism, and what happened when he finally confronted the truth about his habits. He breaks down why dark tourism activates a different part of the brain, how it helped him process his own internal darkness, and why facing human suffering can expand empathy in a way nothing else can. From IQ vs. EQ to the difference between empathy and sympathy, from being blessed by the Pope to ultimately leaving Catholicism, this episode uncovers how spirituality, trauma, and emotional awareness shape who we become and how we show up in the world.

Chad Scott, Ph.D. is critically acclaimed author, seasoned explorer, and licensed psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience in mental health. He has extensively taught university level psychology and criminal justice courses, published three books, and captivated audiences at conferences and seminars.

Drawing on his own challenges, including illness, a transplant, divorce, and anxiety, Dr. Scott writes with a hard-earned grit, offering profound insights on resilience and growth. Specializing in transformative travel, he explores dark tourism sites like Hiroshima and Alcatraz to uncover lessons on healing, human strength, and personal transformation. He lives for adventure and cherishes time with his loyal Boston Terrier, Duke.

In this Let’s Get Naked mini episode, Anne and Cameron break down a truth most people miss: discipline isn’t punishment—it’s SELF-LOVE. When you keep saying yes while running on fumes, you don’t become “selfless”… you become depleted, resentful, and emotionally unavailable. They unpack why burnout isn’t noble, why “martyrdom” kills connection, and how putting yourself first is the foundation of healthy relationships.

The takeaway is simple: put your oxygen mask on first. Build disciplined habits, set clear boundaries, and stop calling doom-scrolling “self-care.” When your cup is full, you show up with more patience, stability, and real presence—for everyone.

In this Christmas edition, Anne is joined by family—her cousins (Amy Knudsen and Deidra Christensen) and her sister-in-law, Kaitlyn Westendorf (the self-appointed “Barbara Walters”) to unpack the messy, hilarious, and unexpectedly tender reality of childhood memories, birth order, and generational norms. Between “feral ambition,” chaotic holiday stories, and the sharp moment of realizing “is that not normal?”, the conversation moves from laughter to lived truth: disappointment, scarcity, the phrases that stick with you, and how those experiences shape parenting, identity, and what the holidays mean now. Expect unfiltered stories (including the infamous “Bruce” moment and smoking-era norms), hard-hitting perspective shifts, and a genuine reminder to stop performing Christmas out of obligation and start choosing what actually creates connection—memories, honesty, and a holiday season that doesn’t cost your peace.

Kaitlyn Westendorf is the first of three girls born to her parents that spent the entirety of her childhood working multiple jobs to support her family's agricultural retail business while demonstrating unparalleled work ethic and the importance of family. She is a first-generation college graduate, with a Bachelor's Degree in Marketing. After watching her parents' hard work come to fruition with the business turning the corner to success, Kaitlyn planned to enter sales that involved agriculture. Life had different plans for Kaitlyn and she ended up being wooed into Aviation. Kaitlyn spent the last 20 years working with Colorado Airports for the state's Aeronautics Division. Kaitlyn married her high school sweetheart after graduating from college and they've been blessed with four amazing children and a friend group that is unmatched. Kaitlyn enjoys playing and watching sports, especially if her kids or nieces and nephews are playing. Some may say she has a card addiction, but it could be worse. Kaitlyn works hard and plays hard and she is extremely luck to have a life partner that feels the same. Kaitlyn is involved in her community in a multitude of ways and enjoy how it feels to "give back".

Deidra Christensen is a Colorado native, married for 27 years to my college sweetheart, Jack. We have two grown kids, Hannah and Hunter, and a wonderful son-in-law, Seth. I’ve been a licensed real estate agent for over 22 years, mentoring new agents and teaching real estate education. I’m a problem solver, a connector, and a lover of sourdough baking. Acts of service are my love language—I find joy in cooking for others. After our daughter’s recent wedding, I’m even considering investing in a wedding venue!
