Show Notes

In this episode of A Healthy Point of View, Sam Tejada sits down with Elisabeth McKay to explore behavioral health, emotional regulation, self-deception, trauma, parenting, faith, and the patterns that shape how we see ourselves and the world.

Elisabeth shares her personal journey, from growing up in a seemingly privileged but emotionally unstable environment to developing powerful pattern recognition and eventually creating tools designed to help people better understand their thoughts, behaviors, and emotional responses.

Together, Sam and Elisabeth discuss why traditional behavioral health often misses the root cause, how childhood patterns can shape adult behavior, why self-awareness is not always enough, and how people can begin to break free from the stories that keep them stuck.

This conversation is about healing, emotional intelligence, parenting, faith, personal responsibility, and learning how to see yourself with more honesty and clarity.

Watch the full episode to hear Elisabeth’s powerful perspective on how we can better understand the mind, behavior, and the patterns that influence our lives.
