Summary

This episode is for the therapy-curious and therapy champions. Ten years ago this summer, I was in one of the lowest points of my life. I had a toddler and a baby, was grieving the death of a loved one, the diagnosis of another loved one, and the near-fatal crisis of yet another loved one. My husband was away making a movie, so I was solo parenting and circumstantially very isolated during a rainy season that had flooded our home. And also....I had just started therapy for the first time. I needed the therapy. Making that phone call was one of the best decisions I've ever made. But as many people will tell you: it often gets (a lot) worse before it gets better. In this episode, I'm sharing 10 Things About Therapy that I've learned or noticed or want to share after 10 years of being on this journey. There are practical tips and also my personal stories. This is completely my own experience and not meant to be prescriptive or authoritative - just me, sharing my stuff. FULL SHOW NOTES HERE MENTIONED in this episode: My first book Share Your Stuff.

0:15.0	This show is about connection,

1:05.4	celebration and also expectation and extra to-do's that often fall to women.
1:19.0	And yeah, it's a great time for memories and we can get a lot of joy from those seasons.

1:32.4	Summer is that way for me. It's a little bit different than the holidays
