| 0:00.0 | Hey homos, welcome back. Here we are again, happy healthy homo. I'm still Keegan. |
| 0:09.0 | I'm still Joel. We're still boyfriends. |
| 0:11.0 | We get started. We just want to talk to you a bit about the paid partner of this episode, |
| 0:14.0 | which is BetterHelp. So I've been pretty lucky in my life where I've had quite a comfortable life. |
| 0:20.0 | I get along with my |
| 0:21.2 | family they will get along with me very loving family there's been no major trauma |
| 0:25.8 | that's happened and I think my previous experience of therapy or my thought of |
| 0:30.5 | therapy before doing it was that oh that's for people who have a diagnosed |
| 0:34.6 | mental illness for one or for two have been through some massive traumatic |
| 0:38.4 | experience but I personally probably won't gain from it because I've had a really nice life |
| 0:44.2 | of course there's been hardships there's been things like the whole coming out thing was really |

| 1:22.7 | I would jump on a call and not have any set agenda. And in fact, I'd jump on a call and go, I've got nothing to talk about today. Cut to, hi, Joel. How are you? Me splurging like, oh, this happened and this happened. And I just found it so valuable. So I just wanted to share that with you guys in case any of you are in a similar position to how I was where you're like, therapy is just for people we've been through massive trauma because it absolutely isn't. Yeah, therapy is not about being |
| 1:27.6 | fixed. It's about |
