Where to Find Maurice and Resources

What happens when your mind turns against you — and fills you with thoughts you can’t control?

In this episode of The OCD Whisperer Podcast, Kristina Orlova speaks with Maurice, creator of the Obsessless app — a powerful new tool designed to support people living with OCD. Maurice opens up about his terrifying first intrusive thoughts, years of misdiagnosis, and how ERP therapy and mindset work helped him turn pain into purpose.

Together, we explore:

• The hidden side of OCD most people never see

• How intrusive thoughts can completely take over your life

• What it really takes to heal when therapy isn’t immediately available

• The creation of Obsessless — and why tech could change OCD recovery forever

Whether you’re currently navigating OCD or supporting someone who is, this episode offers raw truth, hope, and tools for reclaiming your mind.
