The Sad Girls are taking a break from reading this week to talk about therapy. While it's impossible to “go backwards” and unlearn what you've learned in your sessions, sometimes it feels like that, so Alegra and Erin update each other on where they are today in their therapy journeys. They also discuss living a sober-curious life and dive into the details of disassociating, CPTSD, and trauma. Also, Alegra shares a recent experience on TikTok, and how it has showed her growth.

This week, Erin and Alegra dive into “As the Wicked Watch” by Emmy Award-winning journalist Tamron Hall (The Tamron Hall Show, Today's Take, Deadline: Crime).

The Sad Girls discuss the captivating way Hall is able to infuse her life into her writing, separating yourself from traumatic work, and missing white woman syndrome. Also, after a trying week, the duo share how they handle anger and why it's okay to embrace that emotion.
