Wow, I ranted A LOT this episode- apologies! I wanted to share the book I read: Love's Executioner & Other Tales of Psychotherapy. It brought up a great conversation of therapists holding biases (which everyone does!), as well as signs I knew I personally shouldn't be a therapist after completing my degree in Psychology (Counseling). Let me know what you think of this episode. If you have read this book, I would love to hear your thoughts.

I have been thinking about doing this episode for quite a while and been put off several times, because let's face it- admitting you feel out of control with the phone addiction isn't ideal. I think we need to understand the effects of social media and doom scrolling, and this episode will give you a brief insight into just a few of them.
