117: Britney Spears and the Line Between Free Will and Saving Someone

Épisode 117

mardi 16 juin 2026 • Durée 59:30

At what point do you let someone torch their own life?
In this episode we talk about Britney Spears… not the biography but about her mental health and the role of conservatorships.

We discuss:

Sam's genuinely controversial take: the conservatorship wasn't the problem. The length of it was. And a dad with a domestic violence history controlling millions was.
Why someone in a psychiatric crisis almost always experiences being helped as being abused
Why it now feels almost illegal to say out loud that dancing with knives might not be "well"
How millennial girlhood was architected by 60-year-old men (yes, the Les Wexner / Victoria's Secret / Epstein of it all)
Olivia Rodrigo's babydoll dresses, Sabrina Carpenter's album cover, and the trap where a woman is either dressing for predators or a slut, with no third option
How we've convinced ourselves that debating a stranger's body "as therapists, on a podcast" is meaningfully different from the 2000s tabloids (Sam's not buying it)
What Britney actually exposes: a country where your only options in a mental health crisis are the ER, jail, or nothing

108: Why You Feel So Empty (And What's Actually Missing) with Jennifer Wallace

Épisode 108

mardi 21 avril 2026 • Durée 43:51

Why can you have friends, a career, a family, and a full calendar and still feel like something fundamental is missing. Journalist Jennifer Wallace calls that something by its name: you don't feel like you matter.

In this episode, Jennifer breaks down why purpose alone isn't enough, why your friendships might feel hollow even though you technically have them, and why the convenience of modern life might be the very thing starving us of what we need most.

In this episode, we talk about:
* Why you can belong to a friend group, a workplace, a family, and a neighborhood and still not feel like you matter to the people there and what's actually missing when that happens
* How Silicon Valley's obsession with frictionless experience has made us less tolerant of the exact kind of friction that builds a meaningful life
* The European supermarket chain that introduced slow checkout lanes to fight loneliness — and how the cashiers felt it just as much as the customers
* Why I think the mattering I experienced in AA recovery rooms, where your presence is treated as essential, not optional, was the invisible thing that actually got me sober
* Why canceling plans sends a signal about trust, not just scheduling and what changes when you commit to showing up

15: How to Actually Change: The Messy Truth No One Talks About

Épisode 15

mercredi 11 décembre 2024 • Durée 44:27

How exactly do people change? In this episode we dive deep into the messy reality of personal change, sharing Sam's recent cross-country move from Utah to Florida as a launching point to explore how real transformation happens. We discuss our professional and personal experiences with change, challenging the common misconception that change should feel good or comfortable. From Sam's enlightening moment in Kensington Gardens to our collective understanding of the five stages of change, we unpack why the "storm" of emotions - including anxiety, grief, and uncertainty - isn't a sign you're making the wrong choice, but rather evidence that you're doing the necessary work.

We explore why people get stuck in the contemplation phase, constantly gathering data and waiting to feel "ready." Through personal stories and professional insights, we emphasize how change requires sitting with discomfort and learning to trust yourself, even when it feels counterintuitive. The conversation weaves between practical advice and deeper reflections on how societal expectations, especially for women, can keep us from honoring our true needs.

14: How to Break free from All-or-Nothing Thinking & Find Joy Online

Épisode 14

mercredi 4 décembre 2024 • Durée 39:32

In this episode, licensed therapists Amanda White and Sam Dalton, we explore the pervasive impact of all-or-nothing thinking in our digital world and how to find balance amidst the extremes. Through personal stories (including Sam's endearing confession about her fear of whales), we dive into how social media algorithms reward black-and-white thinking and extreme takes, making it challenging to maintain nuanced perspectives. We share our own struggles with content consumption - from Amanda's climate change spirals to Sam's political doom-scrolling - while acknowledging that even as therapists trained in recognizing cognitive distortions, we're not immune to these patterns.

The conversation takes several amusing turns as we discuss our different ways of finding joy online, from Broadway content to Taylor Swift videos, while exploring deeper themes about hope, activism, and meaningful engagement. We examine how to shift from passive content consumption to active, intentional engagement with social media, and share practical strategies for maintaining mental well-being in our digital world.

Along the way, we explore the importance of knowing your values and recognizing when you need to step back from overwhelming content. We wrap up with actionable homework for listeners about values exploration and challenging rigid thinking patterns.
