The OCD Whisperer Podcast with Kristina Orlova
If your mind keeps looping, second-guessing, or making things feel too real — this podcast is for you.
The OCD Whisperer Podcast explores OCD, anxiety, and the patterns that keep us stuck — including perfectionism, overthinking, fear, and self-doubt. Through honest conversations and personal stories, the show looks at how these experiences shape our lives and how people begin to relate to them differently.
Hosted by Kristina Orlova, a licensed therapist with lived experience of OCD, the podcast brings together clinicians, creatives, athletes, and everyday people. Episodes are reflective, human, and grounded in approaches that are known to help — while still making space for nuance, curiosity, and real-life complexity.
This is a space for anyone who has questioned themselves, felt overwhelmed, or wondered what’s actually happening beneath the surface — and how to move forward without feeling trapped in your own mind.
