6: Mental Health & Boundaries with Family with Jen Meyer
Episode 6
Thursday, 27 August, 2026
Ever feel like you're carrying the emotional weight of your whole family, fixing everything while ignoring your own needs? When someone you love is struggling with their mental health, it's easy to confuse care with self-sacrifice. In this episode, Dr. Jenny Yip sits down with Jennifer Meyer, CEO and designer of Jennifer Meyer Jewelry, for an honest and deeply personal conversation about what it really takes to support a loved one through OCD — without losing yourself or enabling the illness in the process. Topics Covered Why accommodating a loved one's OCD feels like helping but is actually making things worse — and how to tell the difference What exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy is and why consistency is everything when it comes to real recovery The guilt moms carry when they have to stop "fixing" things for their family, and how to work through it How Jen overcame her own panic attacks and anxiety — and why short-term pain truly leads to long-term relief Why breaking the stigma around mental illness starts with being willing to say "I need help" out loud About Jennifer Meyer Jennifer Meyer is the CEO and designer of Jennifer Meyer Jewelry, a fine jewelry brand born and raised in Los Angeles. Launched in 2005, the brand is known for its timeless, personal pieces celebrating love, luck, and the moments that matter most.
