KCAA: Get Balanced with Dr. Marissa (Fri, 27 Feb, 2026)

February 27, 2026·1 hr·5 clips
Dr. Marissa explains why she avoids headlines to protect you from becoming 'angry, anxious, afraid, and aggravated'.
No headlines here. Dr. Marissa starts by pulling listeners off the exhausting hamster wheel and back toward the show's promise of balance, joy, and taking life back. The opening is busy in a very morning-radio way. She names the station, the platforms, the no-headlines rule, and why she does not want to feed angry, anxious, afraid, aggravated energy. Happiness gets planted early. What could have been a newsy setup turns into a ritual: part self-help reset, part station housekeeping, part direct check-in with the audience. Then astrology takes over. The host checks a Chinese astrology/travel-guide source and identifies the co-host as a metal monkey, described as witty, intelligent, and sociable. It gets personal quickly. She protects the co-host's birth year, saying she does things for a reason, then reads the forecast like a playful mirror. Career news sounds bright. The horoscope points to promotion, strong job performance, new customers, and more money, which the host ties back to singing and dancing. The caution shows up with a grin. Jealous colleagues, prudent investing, average health, and safe driving all get folded into the bit, especially because driving had already come up. Partnership gets a nudge too. The reading advises temper control for peace at home and family discussion before any house move, but it never turns stern. The personality section is where the segment really lands. Intelligent, resourceful, innovative, talented, eloquent, expressive, knowledge-hungry, and stubborn all get called out, with quick affirmations from the host. She spots herself in the list too. The comparison becomes part compliment, part joke, because the same traits that make the co-host shine can also make cleverness backfire. Mischief stays in the room. The segment closes with affectionate rhythm, a weekend sendoff, the take-back-your-life tag, and KCAA moving back into station promotion.
