The Bad Broadcast

On today's episode we're getting into what makes or breaks a therapist while I read your submissions for the most unhelpful, unethical, and unhinged things your therapists have ever said. As someone who is aggressively pro-therapy, let me just say: therapists can be insane. Bonus: I'm recapping my family reunion and talking about the situation when I'm the most evil! Enjoy!!

Did I ever expect to do an entire episode dedicated to Hell? No. No I didn't. But what the hell, am I right? Not only do I break down my beliefs on hell and my own personal hells, we also discuss your submitted answers as to why you're headed there! The bad news: we're all headed to the underworld.

The duality of women on full display this week I tap into many emotions ranging from pure rage at the guy at a gas station to tender feelings about psilocybin journeys and motherhood. I'm answering a few questions and offering my perspectives to (hopefully) offer a little companionship and humor through the turmoils of LIFE! Take it, accept it, spin it into gold and for the love of God let's work on being a little bit kinder, and a little bit more normal to each other. Happy 4th of July this week (in a cool way, of course) BE SAFE!

Today we are playing Would You Rather with my favorite co-hosts: me, myself, and I! In my humble opinion, there's no better way to dig into the psyche. I ponder all the mysteries of life in this episode, such as when was the worst time to live as a woman? Do I want to know how or when I'm gonna die? And the biggest mystery of all: why do all men believe they can fight a bear with only a pocket knife? Some things we may never know. ENJOY!
