The Things We Don’t Notice (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The last episode asked a simple question: What the hell are we working so hard for? This is where that conversation goes next. What started as a conversation about work, money, and the pressure to keep pushing turns into something deeper—what we’re actually trying to build, what “enough” looks like, and whether the life we’ve been told to chase is even the life we want. No perfect answers. Just the next part of an honest conversation I wasn’t quite finished having. This Might Be Therapy. If you
What the Hell Are We Working So Hard For? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why do so many of us feel guilty when we stop? Why does a free Saturday turn into another list of things to accomplish? Why do we keep saying we’re doing it all for our families while sometimes giving work the best parts of us and bringing home whatever is left?

When You’re the Villain in Someone Else’s Story (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you ever stopped to wonder if you’re the villain in someone else’s story? In this episode of This Might Be Therapy, Chris explores one of the most uncomfortable questions we can ask ourselves: What part of this belongs to me? Instead of asking who’s right or who’s wrong, this conversation challenges us to examine our own blind spots, the stories we tell ourselves, and the ways our ego protects us from uncomfortable truths. It’s not about taking blame for everything—or giving others a free p
