Re-Release: Rupture & Repair with Natasha Sandy
In this heartfelt and layered re-release, Alefyah Taqui sits down with Natasha Sandy to explore the complex emotional terrain of the therapeutic relationship. Together, they examine what it means to be authentic, vulnerable, and human—both as therapists and as people doing their own inner work.
This conversation weaves through themes of rupture and repair, decolonization, identity, and the impact of social media on therapist visibility and boundaries. Natasha and Alefyah speak candidly about the discomfort of being seen, the importance of emotional risk, and the messy, nonlinear nature of growth and healing.
They also reflect on:
The role of community in the therapeutic process
The challenge of navigating personal and cultural identities
The power of experiential learning over intellectual insight
The necessity of making space for disagreement and tension in healing spaces
If you’ve ever felt unsure about how to "do it right" in the therapy room—or in life—this episode is a powerful reminder that being human is the work.
