Online Publications and Conversations with Kylie Lambert

I’ve had the opportunity to share my perspective on therapy, self-compassion, and living confidently as a Millennial woman, especially when it comes to navigating anxiety, perfectionism, and the child-free path. From podcasts to online publications, these conversations are about breaking down stigma, offering practical tools, and reminding women they’re not alone in their experiences.

🎙️ The Inner Critic Isn’t Honest — It’s Protective: How Toxic Positivity, Perfectionism, and Self-Doubt Keep Us at War with Ourselves

That voice telling you you’re not enough? It’s not telling the truth, it’s just trying to keep you safe. In this conversation with Jazzmyn Proctor, we get into why the inner critic thrives on perfectionism and shame, why toxic positivity actually makes self-doubt worse, and what it practically looks like to build self-trust when you’ve spent years being your own harshest critic. If “just be nicer to yourself” has never actually worked for you, this episode is worth a listen.

🎙️ Relating with Self-Compassion: Unpacking Perfectionism and Anxiety with Kylie Lambert

If you’ve ever felt like you’re not doing enough, not healing fast enough, or not measuring up, this one is for you. Brittani and I get into what self-compassion actually looks like in practice, how perfectionism quietly drives anxiety in high-achieving women, and why TikTok self-diagnosis is doing more harm than good. We also talk about the roots of the “not good enough” story and how building a kinder relationship with yourself is one of the most underrated tools for real, lasting change.

🎙️ Kylie Lambert: The Choice to Be Child Free

Being child-free isn’t just a lifestyle choice, it comes with grief, societal pressure, identity questions, and a kind of emotional complexity that rarely gets talked about honestly. In this conversation, I share what the decision to live child-free actually looked like for me and my husband, including the grief, the freedom, the criticism, and the deep communication it required. If you’ve ever navigated a life path that doesn’t match what’s expected of you, this one is for you.

🎙️ The Question Nobody Asks Men: Being Child-Free by Choice as a Woman with Kylie Lambert

Women are still expected to justify a choice that men make without a second thought. In this follow-up conversation with Jazzmyn, I get into what it actually took to arrive at a permanent child-free decision, including 11 years of ongoing conversation with my husband, the grief that lives alongside the fulfillment, and what it’s been like to share that life publicly when the social risk is still very real. If you’ve ever had to defend who you are just to make someone else comfortable, this one is for you.

🎙️ Silencing Your Inner Mean Girl with Kylie Lambert, LCSW

Most women don’t realize their inner critic isn’t actually keeping them motivated, it’s keeping them exhausted. In this conversation with Emily Riggs, I talk about where that harsh inner voice comes from, why it disguises itself as drive, and how the connection between self-criticism and burnout runs deeper than most people expect. We get into what it practically looks like to build a kinder relationship with yourself when self-compassion feels uncomfortable or even scary.

Let’s Work Together

I’m available for podcast interviews, guest articles, expert commentary, and speaking opportunities. My areas of focus include anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, self-compassion, and the mental health experiences of Millennial and Gen Z women, including child-free identity and life transitions. If you’re looking for a licensed therapist who can speak to these topics in a way that’s honest, specific, and actually useful to your audience, I’d love to connect.
