Episode Description
Stories are one of the most powerful ways for us to relate and teach others.

Through adversity such as physical abuse, bullying, racism, and toxic partners, Olivia and Tanya examine and discuss the motivations, and lessons learned. Furthermore, they talk about the process in finding the right therapist, and common pitfalls of how people often approach therapy.
