🎙️ Introduction to A Cluttered Mind
Hosted by Tracilyn George

Welcome to A Cluttered Mind, a podcast that explores the deeply human, often messy experience of living with mental illness through the lens of storytelling.

Hosted by author Tracilyn George, this podcast is a journey through the pages of fiction and memoir—offering powerful narratives that reflect the realities of depression, bipolar disorder, addiction, and other mental health struggles.

Most episodes feature chapters from Tracilyn’s own books—raw, intimate, and honest depictions of what it means to live with a mind that doesn’t always follow the rules. Some episodes will include personal recollections from the host herself, offering listeners insight into her lived experiences with mental health challenges.

Occasionally, you’ll also hear conversations with others who bravely share their own stories of survival, resilience, and healing.

This podcast is not about providing clinical advice or one-size-fits-all solutions. It’s about telling the truth, holding space for the hard stuff, and reminding each other that we are not alone.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your own mind—or if you love someone who does—this podcast is for you.

You are worthy. You are valued. And your story matters.

🧠 A Cluttered Mind – Because some of the most powerful stories come from the most chaotic places.
