Nobody Walks Into Therapy Guilty: Why Being Understood Is Not Being Free (Ep.511) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Nobody Walks Into Therapy Guilty: Why Being Understood Is Not Being Free (Ep.511) Show notes I sat in that chair for years. I trained for it, I believed in it, and I spent a long time listening to people tell me the truth about their lives, or the version of it they could bear to say out loud. A lot of people do not change in that room, and it is not because their therapist is bad. Some of them are the finest people I have ever met. They stay stuck for a reason built into the room itself.

Why Therapy Stops Working: I Sat in That Chair for Twenty Years, Then I Left (Ep.510) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For twenty years I was a therapist. Almost every day I heard the same sound, the long breath a person lets out as they sit down, before a single word is spoken.

How to Say No Without Guilt: Self-Betrayal and the People Who Need It (Ep508) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most people don't struggle to say no because they don't know how. They avoid it because they already know what the answer would be with two or three particular people in their life. Setting a boundary is the fastest diagnostic you have. Say no, don't explain it, and watch what happens next. One kind of person says of course, no problem, and the whole thing is over in four seconds. Nothing is damaged. Usually something improves. The other kind gets hurt. They perform surprise. They tell you they'

Why Does Everything Feel Fake Now? Suspicion Is Cheaper Than Being Moved (EP507) A therapist of twenty years on the reflex that dismisses a thing in four seconds, why that reflex is a defence against humiliation rather than a judgement about machines, and the reason it can't fire at fakery without also firing at excellence.
