Have you ever caught yourself thinking, "I should be over this by now"? Maybe an old fear or insecurity shows up, and instead of just feeling it, you feel bad about feeling that way. Most of us were taught that hard feelings — shame, envy, anger, boredom — are problems to be solved or character flaws to fix. And when they don't go away, we pile on a second layer of distress. But my guest today says that's exactly where we go wrong. The goal isn't to get rid of hard feelings. It's to get more curious about them. My guest is Daniel Smith, a writer turned therapist whose new book is called Hard Feelings. Some of the things we discuss are: Why hard feelings aren't problems to solve — and what happens when you stop trying to optimize them away Why shame is the master uncomfortable emotion, and how it often gets passed down through families in silence The trap of asking "why do I feel this way?" — and the better question that actually helps Why decades of personal work doesn't make old anxieties disappear The hidden cost of the positivity industry — and how well-meaning advice can become unintentionally shaming What boredom, envy, and even anger are trying to teach you if you're willing to listen The difference between sitting with a feeling and needing to shift one — and how to know which moment calls for which The Therapist's Take: My top three strategies for getting curious about hard feelings starting today Related Episodes ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 224 - 8 Myths About Feelings That Can Sabotage Your Emotional Intelligence ⁠148 — How to Take Charge of Your Feelings Links & Resources Hard Feelings Connect with the Show Buy a copy of⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with Amy on Instagram —⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@AmyMorinAuthor⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Visit my website —⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AmyMorinLCSW.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Sponsors Helix Sleep —Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠helixsleep.com/STRONGER⁠⁠⁠⁠ to get 20% off sitewide   AirDoctor — Head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AirDoctorPro.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠and use promo code STRONGER to get UP TO $300 off today!

— Many people today are exhausted—not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. We move through our days carrying stress, anxiety, old wounds, endless responsibilities, and the quiet feeling that somewhere along the way we lost touch with our vitality, our creativity, and perhaps even ourselves. But what if exhaustion is not simply a lack of energy? What if it is a signal inviting us to reconnect with something deeper—our passions, our intuition, our authentic nature, and the creative spirit that exists within each of us? Today, we'll explore what it truly means to love your life—not because everything is perfect, but because you have learned to embrace yourself fully, listen to your inner wisdom, and live in alignment with who you really are. We'll talk about emotional healing, resilience, creativity, intuition, and the surprising ways that self-expression can help us access parts of ourselves that words alone often cannot reach. We'll also explore how following our passions, trusting our hearts, and becoming more present to our inner experience can lead to greater vitality, purpose, and joy. At its core, this conversation is an invitation to move beyond merely surviving and begin thriving—to reconnect with the energy, creativity, and aliveness that have been within you all along.

This is a podcast conversation between Ross Rosenberg and Dr. Steven Ross about how to choose a therapist. They advise prospective clients to ask upfront about a therapist's orientation, licensure, years in practice, and experience with their specific issue, and to reflect on any gender or age preferences while committing to a session or two to gauge fit. Ross and Steven explain the differences between psychologists and master's-level therapists but argue that after five to ten years of experience, practitioners converge in skill regardless of degree, with licensure and certifications signaling accountability.  Ross and David They caution against unhealthy dependence on a therapist, urging clients to set boundaries and move on if therapy isn't resolving their core problem, and close by encouraging clients to know what they need and ensure they feel genuinely heard.Get Real with Heather & DavidExploring conversations for an intentional life.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

It's been revealed the mass resignation of a board governing mental health professionals, followed a serious please explain letter from the Minister. All six members of the Psycho-therapists Board resigned last month without a public explanation. Now RNZ has seen a letter from the associate health minister Matt Doocey, to the board in the days before their resignations. The Minister said he'd been made aware of "credible" concerns raised by a whistleblower, and was considering removing them on grounds of neglect of duty. Health correspondent Kate Green spoke to Lisa Owen.

Join our hosts for Friday's show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Modern Food' and 'Faith and Focus' Modern Food We are currently living through a dietary crisis, with over half of the calories consumed in the UK now coming from Ultra-Processed Foods (UPFs). This show unpacks the reality of the modern supermarket, exploring hidden artificial additives, the illusion of “healthy” packaging, and how chemically engineered foods directly impact our physical health and mental wellbeing. Has the food industry sacrificed our health for convenience and mass profit? Faith and Focus We live in a world full of distractions and an economy based on our attention. Over the past year's meditation and mindfulness have become billion dollar businesses, due to the rise of mental health issues. Yet Islam has been teaching mindful practices for over 1400 years now. It encourages us to pay attention to our thoughts, our actions and our body. In this episode we dive into the timeless practices that Islam has taught Muslims to be present in life. Guest: Imam Shamail Ahmad – serving in the Review of Religions Ambreen Agha – a Psychotherapist from Barrie Canada who runs her own clinic called “Ahurewa” Producers: Iesha Khalid, Misbah Tariq and Hania Mubarik

 You try to help, and somehow you become the enemy. You explain your feelings, and suddenly you're the one being blamed. These aren't random relationship failures — you're cycling through Karpman's Drama Triangle, and until you recognize the pattern, you'll keep fighting the same battles with different people. Psychotherapist and Jungian analyst Gary Trosclair breaks down the three archetypal roles — Rescuer, Victim, and Persecutor — how they show up in the driven, compulsive personality, and five practical steps to step out of the triangle for good.

A fortnight ago it emerged all 6 members had left and that the Ministry of Health was assessing potential candidates to reconstitute the board.

In today's episode, Trisha and I answer a listener's question about anxiety, overthinking and the need to control. The question comes from a listener who asks: "Has Trisha any tips for dealing with overthinking due to anxiety and wanting things to go a certain way? Why do we feel that need when all we can control is ourselves?" It's a great question and one I think many women will relate to. If you find yourself worrying about the future, replaying conversations, trying to make things go a certain way or feeling uncomfortable when things are out of your control, this episode is for you. Trisha McHale brings her grounded psychotherapist perspective as we explore this listener's question together. Click play and let's dive in.

John Puls, a psychotherapist and clinical social worker who works with teens and young adults, joins Megan Lynch. Why are seemingly more teens taking part in 'takeovers', some of which become violent? 'They want to experience this rush,' and gain more attention, says Puls. 'There's a group-think mentality' when they're are with each other explains Puls, 'the off-switch doesn't exist.'

Want to work with Muscle Intelligence?  Apply Now Most men try to out-discipline their emotions and wonder why they still snap, freeze, or stew at the worst possible moment. Donald Robertson, the cognitive-behavioral psychotherapist who wrote the book on thinking like a Roman emperor, has spent three decades proving there's a better operating system. Drawing on the same Stoic playbook that ran an empire, he and Ben discuss why composure isn't suppression, why the calmest man in the room is almost never the one trying hardest to stay calm, and where the real leverage hides inside every reaction you have. The edge, it turns out, lives in a gap most people never notice… the split second between what happens to you and what you make it mean. Robertson breaks down the two-phase machinery behind anger and anxiety, the reason your meditation practice keeps failing you the moment you actually need it, and the counterintuitive move Marcus Aurelius used to command loyalty when his own generals turned against him. If you've built the career, the body, and the bank account and still get hijacked by your own nervous system, this is the conversation that explains why — and what the most self-possessed men in history did about it. 5 Key Takeaways Why every emotion arrives in two phases and why elite composure is decided entirely in the second one The reason willpower backfires, and what Stoics trained instead Why your meditation and journaling don't transfer to high-pressure moments (and the fix) The leadership move that made Marcus Aurelius untouchable even during a civil war How to model real composure for your kids without pretending to be perfect Chapters 0:00 Meeting Donald Robertson 4:30 From Therapy to Stoicism 7:47 Virtue As the Only True Good 10:14 Why Success Can Feel Empty 14:25 Why Meditation Leaves You Exposed 16:00 The Pause Before You React 22:21 Why Only Three Stoics Survived 27:16 Marcus Aurelius: Power and War 38:08 How an Emperor Truly Led 45:44 Stoicism in the Therapy Room 50:49 Is Anything Really "Bad"? 55:13 The Socratic Test of Success 1:00:41 A Lightning Tour of Philosophy 1:09:42 Modeling Wisdom for Your Kids 1:16:00 The Two Phases of Emotion 1:21:50 Why Studying Stoicism from Soundbites Fail You 1:29:01 Where to Find Donald Connect with Donald Substack – https://donaldrobertson.substack.com Website – https://donaldrobertson.name

June is one of the busiest wedding months of the year, and while the focus is usually on the bride and groom, it can also be a big adjustment for the mother of the groom. Lesley Koeppel, a psychotherapist with more than 30 years of experience and the author of How to Be the "Perfect" Mother-in-Law: A Lighthearted Guide for Moms of Married Sons, spoke to Andrew Carter.

 A thousand people called 911 because they believed Jesse Ridgway was in danger. He'd staged family violence on YouTube for four years. When the truth came out, he said he "never lied." He didn't apologize to a single caller. He felt nothing but satisfaction that his show was working.That was a decade ago. The pattern has only escalated. A creator platform called StoryFire that burned through a million users before being sold as an NFT. His wife went through a medical procedure she described as the worst experience of her life — within 48 hours Jesse was on national television. She was home recovering. He was on his fourth camera in five days. A pregnancy announcement that may or may not be real. Each stunt darker than the last. Each one requiring a bigger audience reaction to produce the same result.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott has spent more than thirty years in forensic mental health and clinical practice. She examines the behavioral pattern across twenty years of documented evidence and identifies what's actually operating underneath Jesse Ridgway's public persona. The escalation pattern mirrors what researchers have documented in narcissism and social media addiction — the dopamine feedback loop that functions on the same neural pathways as substance dependence. Same tolerance curve. Same withdrawal symptoms. Same inability to stop even when the behavior is causing measurable harm.Scott addresses whether the money or the attention is the primary driver — and whether they've become indistinguishable at this point. Whether anyone in Jesse's private life can compete with the validation four million subscribers provide. What the role of TMZ and news outlets is in feeding the cycle by treating staged events as legitimate news. And the question at the center of twenty years of evidence: is this a person who chooses to manipulate, or is this a compulsion that two decades of reinforcement have locked into a structure that can't be turned off?If the formula became the person — can the person ever come back?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ethical AI Practice for Counsellors and Psychotherapists in the UK - Recognising Poor Supervision in Counselling Training In Episode 379 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', they explore professional accountability and responsibility in AI in counselling practice - including who holds responsibility if something goes wrong. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ken Kelly about his new book, Ethical AI Practice for Counsellors and Psychotherapists in the UK, and the growing role of AI in counselling and psychotherapy. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss recognising poor supervision in counselling training - including red flags to look out for and what good supervision should provide. Accountability and Responsibility in AI Counselling Practice [starts at 03:10 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore accountability and responsibility in AI counselling practice, examining the ethical and legal responsibilities counsellors hold when using AI tools in their work. Key points discussed include: The responsibility for clinical decisions always remains with the practitioner, even when using AI-supported tools. Counsellors need to critically evaluate any digital tools they use, including understanding how client data is stored, protected, and accessed. It's important to consider what happens if a tool provider closes down or experiences a data breach. Practitioners should check whether their insurance covers the use of AI-supported systems in clinical work. Ethical decision-making includes documenting why a tool was accepted, rejected, or adopted with conditions. Using anonymised or non-identifiable client information can add an extra layer of protection when working digitally. Ethical AI Practice for Counsellors and Psychotherapists in the UK [starts at 26:58 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ken Kelly about his new book, Ethical AI Practice, exploring the ethical use of AI in counselling and psychotherapy. Key points from this conversation include: Ken describes the moment he realised AI would significantly impact every profession, including counselling and psychotherapy. The book was written to help practitioners navigate AI ethically while formal guidance from professional bodies continues to develop. The AI Expert Reference Group brings together representatives from counselling organisations, training providers, and ethical bodies to discuss developments in AI. The book focuses on applying existing counselling skills and ethical thinking to AI rather than teaching technical knowledge. AI is already appearing in counselling practice through tools, apps, and client use - often without practitioners realising it. Companion resources include ethical evaluation tools, AI policy templates, therapeutic contract examples, and downloadable workbooks. Recognising Poor Supervision in Counselling Training [starts at 01:07:52 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss how counselling students can recognise poor supervision and what healthy supervision should look like. Key points include: Students are paying for a professional service and should expect clear contracting, appropriate support, and professional boundaries. A good supervisor should understand the needs of counselling students and ideally have experience supervising trainees. Supervision should feel supportive and safe while still offering appropriate challenge and professional development. Supervisors should understand the modality and context in which the student is working, including online or telephone practice where relevant. Warning signs may include feeling unable to bring mistakes into supervision, blurred boundaries, or supervision sessions that lack depth and challenge. Good supervision helps students grow in confidence, reflect critically on their practice, and develop professionally in service of their clients.

On a livestream, Jesse Ridgway said, “I'm glad my dad didn't terminate me, but I'm normal.” That sentence — delivered in the middle of a firestorm about his unborn child — tells a psychotherapist something very specific. Jesse Ridgway has staged events for attention his entire career. Four years of fake family violence. A platform that burned through a million users. And now a pregnancy announcement that may or may not be real, from a man whose record is built entirely on making people believe things that didn't happen.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott breaks down what she hears in that quote, what the clinical escalation pattern looks like across Ridgway's career, and what a framework called Munchausen by Internet reveals about someone who fabricates crises online to harvest sympathy and attention. If Jesse Ridgway's career is a case study, what is the diagnosis?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with another special episode recorded LIVE from the Heal Squad Day of Reset, and today we're sharing one of the most powerful conversations of the entire event: our Mind-Body Reset Panel. Maria brought together three of her favorite healers and trusted Heal Squad experts to explore what healing really means—and what we can do right now to help reset an overwhelmed nervous system. Psychotherapist and trauma expert Tammy Valicenti explains why healing starts by understanding the stories, patterns, and protective behaviors driving our stress and anxiety. Holistic health practitioner and Regenerative Pathway Therapy creator Gabby Piccirilli shares simple techniques to help regulate the nervous system in real time and reconnect with the body's natural healing abilities. And traditional Chinese medicine physician Anthony DiSalvo reveals the acupressure practices he uses to help people manage anxiety, tension, pain, and overwhelm.Together, they explore how to recognize when you're stuck in survival mode, why your symptoms may be trying to tell you something, and the small daily practices that can help you feel calmer, safer, and more connected to your body.The best part? Many of these tools are simple, free, and available to you anytime you need them.We hope you enjoy this special LIVE conversation from the Heal Squad Day of Reset! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Your nervous system may be running the show more than you realize. Anxiety, brain fog, jaw clenching, digestive issues, fatigue, and feeling constantly overwhelmed aren't random,...they can all be signs that your body is stuck in survival mode. Healing starts with awareness, not perfection. Whether it's recognizing the thoughts driving your stress, understanding the emotions stored in your body, or learning to listen to your symptoms differently, every healer on this panel agreed that lasting healing begins by paying attention to what your body is trying to tell you. The most powerful healing tools are often the simplest. From EMDR and nervous system regulation techniques to acupressure points and breathwork, this conversation proves that helping your body feel safe doesn't always require expensive treatments—sometimes small daily practices can create the biggest shifts.

“Breaking the Boy Code” is Dr Katie Hurley's latest book, following the success of the award-winning “No More Mean Girls”. In this episode, Katie discusses how boys are socialized into a narrow description of manhood that is detrimental to their well-being. While that issue is not new – the “man-o-sphere” has created a world of social influencers who insidiously influence our young sons pushing them down a funnel of increasingly more severe beliefs about what it is to be a man including wealth, physique, dehumanizing women for sex / ra*pe. Katie has studied this system and explains how this online system is akin to brainwashing people into a religious cult.

The prosecution called Mackenzie Shirilla cold and calculated. A judge called her "hell on wheels." The public split into two camps after Netflix's The Crash — she's a monster or she's innocent. But a psychotherapist who has spent three decades inside the minds of people who harm others sees a clinical picture that's messier than either side wants it to be.Shavaun Scott is a licensed psychotherapist, author of The Minds of Mass Killers, and has worked in domestic violence shelters, forensic settings, and crisis teams. She examines what's operating underneath Mackenzie Shirilla's personality — the narcissism that presents as confidence but clinically almost never is, the self-obsession that masks profound fragility, and the fundamental question the trial never addressed: whether a seventeen-year-old's volatile behavior represents a fixed personality disorder or an adolescent brain that hasn't finished developing. The texts were ugly. The threats were real. But what they reveal about Mackenzie's inner world clinically is very different from what the prosecution used them to establish at trial.Scott's analysis sits alongside a post-conviction strategic breakdown that raises equally uncomfortable questions. Shirilla agreed to appear in the Netflix documentary from prison. She was soft-spoken and remorseful on camera. Within days, a fellow inmate described a completely different person behind bars. The internet turned on her harder than before. Her pre-crash social media is still circulating — screenshots used to define who she is. The families are more vocal than ever. Dominic's sister has a podcast. The parents appeared in the documentary.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta advises clients on post-conviction strategy. He examines every decision Mackenzie has made since the verdict — the documentary, the public persona, the persistent "I don't remember" — and asks whether any of it helps at a parole hearing or whether she's actively burying herself deeper. Her appeals are exhausted. Her first parole date isn't until 2037. The question isn't whether she's guilty anymore. It's whether she understands what she needs to do next — and whether anyone around her is giving her that guidance.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Was it murder? That's the question the trial asked. A judge said yes. Netflix's The Crash put the evidence on screen and the public argued about the answer. But psychotherapist Shavaun Scott, who has spent thirty years studying violence and treating people on both sides of it, says the trial was asking the wrong question — and the answer to the right one is something far more complicated and far more tragic than either side is prepared to accept.Shirilla was seventeen when the crash in Strongsville, Ohio killed Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan. She was convicted of four counts of murder. She says she has no memory. A neurologist found evidence consistent with a medical episode. The families believe she's a monster. And the personality profile the prosecution built — the narcissism, the threats, the volatility — reads very differently to a clinician than it does to a courtroom.Shavaun Scott, licensed psychotherapist and author of The Minds of Mass Killers, delivers a three-part psychological examination covering every dimension of this case. Her personality — why the traits that convicted her may actually signal something the system can't recognize. The relationship — why it was more mutual and more dangerous than the one-sided version the prosecution presented. And the aftermath — whether trauma-induced amnesia is clinically real, what grief does to the families' certainty, and a possibility that nobody in the courtroom was equipped to consider.Two young men are gone. A young woman is in prison. Everyone picked a side. This conversation asks whether either side was looking at the right evidence.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In today's episode, Trisha and I answer a listener's question about food, weight loss and the fear of slipping back into diet culture. The question comes from a listener who wants to get fit and strong and improve her health, but also feels confused about how weight loss actually works without calorie counting, restriction and obsessing over food again. We talk about overeating, fat storage, portion sizes, hunger, body trust and the fear many women have of “getting it wrong” when they stop dieting. We also explore the difference between healthy structure and diet culture, why so many women feel stuck in the all-or-nothing cycle, and how to approach weight loss in a slower, calmer and more sustainable way without becoming consumed by food. As always, Trisha McHale brings her grounded psychotherapist perspective — helping unpack what's happening beneath these patterns and why rebuilding trust, consistency and self-awareness matters so much.

Texas voters head to the polls for a high-stakes Republican Senate runoff that could test President Trump's influence once again. Senator John Cornyn is fighting to fend off a Trump-endorsed challenge from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, as both candidates argue they are best positioned to keep the seat in Republican hands ahead of November. With several recent GOP incumbents losing primaries across the country, the outcome could signal how much sway the President still holds within the party heading into the midterms. University of Texas Professor and FOX News Decision Desk member Daron Shaw joins the Rundown to break down the political stakes in Texas, and what the race could mean for Republicans nationwide. Mental health awareness has helped reduce stigma and encouraged more people to seek support, but some experts warn the culture surrounding therapy may be creating new problems. Psychotherapist and author Jonathan Alpert joins the Rundown to discuss his new book, Therapy Nation, and why he believes Americans are becoming too quick to identify with mental health struggles instead of working through them.

Psychotherapist and author Erica Komisar joins John to make the case that what happens in a child's first 3 years shapes their emotional security for life, and that current childcare policy is built on a dangerous ignorance of child development.They also discuss why ADHD is better understood as a stress response than a disorder, what the evidence tells us about cortisol levels in babies separated from their primary caregivers, why Australia's social media ban is a step in the right direction but far from a complete solution, and what governments could do differently if they genuinely wanted to support families rather than promote institutional childcare.Erica Komisar is a clinical social worker, psychoanalyst, parent coach, and author. With over thirty years of experience in private practice, she works to alleviate pain in individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, eating, and other compulsive disorders.

We often think "ambivalence" means indifference. Its actual meaning is quite different: ambivalence means having multiple and often opposite emotions in one moment. Motherhood contains much joy—but what about the resentment, grief, anger, fear, exhaustion, and guilt that can exist alongside deep love? Psychotherapist and researcher Dr. Margo Lowy joins us to discuss her book MATERNAL AMBIVALENCE: The Loving Moments and Bitter Truths of Motherhood and the emotional contradictions at the heart of parenting. Dr. Lowy explains why naming difficult emotions can actually strengthen our relationships with our children at all stages of our parenting, from postpartum anxiety to learning to let our children go. We discuss: Why the pressures of perfectionism are so damaging for mothers The taboo around negative parenting emotions How self-awareness and emotional honesty can improve parent-child relationships Here's where you can find Margo: https://drmargolowy.com/ @drmargolowy on IG Buy MATERNAL AMBIVALENCE: https://bookshop.org/a/12099/9798888455999 What Fresh Hell is co-hosted by Amy Wilson and Margaret Ables.

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott brings her clinical expertise to an examination of the alleged behavioral patterns prosecutors have described in the case against David Anthony Burke, known professionally as D4vd. Charged with first-degree murder with special circumstances, continuous sexual abuse of a child, and mutilation of human remains, Burke has pleaded not guilty. His attorneys maintain he is innocent.Prosecutors allege contact with Celeste Rivas Hernandez began when she was eleven and became sexual when she was thirteen. They allege Burke paid a thousand dollars to maintain contact after law enforcement intervened, that he allegedly killed her when she threatened to expose the relationship, and that he subsequently ordered tools and materials under a fake identity — with forensic evidence reportedly tying those items to injuries on her remains. Throughout, prosecutors allege he maintained his public career and reportedly deceived those around him about what had occurred.Scott examines the psychological dimensions of the alleged behavior — what sustained contact with a child from age eleven allegedly reveals about intent versus opportunity, how the alleged escalation after law enforcement contact fits established behavioral models, and what the reported ability to allegedly move between extreme violence and public performance suggests about compartmentalization and psychopathology.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott brings her expertise in mass killer psychology to a forensic analysis of newly published evidence in the Bryan Kohberger case. Three letters written from the Latah County Jail in October 2023 — never before made public — reveal a psychological profile that raises profound questions about detachment, narcissism, and the complete absence of empathy.Kohberger's writings contain no reference to his four victims — Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, or Ethan Chapin. No acknowledgment of the charges. No fear. His letter to his dog claims telepathic communication. His letter to his sister reads like a detached academic exercise. His family letter references "triumphantly ascending" and contains the phrase "A four" — while charged with four counts of first-degree murder.Scott analyzes these letters alongside the FBI's interview with Kohberger's mother the night of his arrest, inmate observations of severe obsessive-compulsive behavior, and the emotional void of his guilty plea. The result is a clinical portrait of a man who may not experience reality the way the rest of us understand it — and what that means for the families who will never receive the answers they deserve.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott provides clinical analysis of two of the most psychologically significant cases in true crime — the Bryan Kohberger Idaho murders and the prosecution of David Anthony Burke, known as D4vd, for the alleged murder of fourteen-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.In the Kohberger segment, Scott analyzes three never-before-published letters written from the Latah County Jail — to his dog, his sister, and his family — which contain no reference to his four victims, no acknowledgment of the charges, and language detached from any recognizable reality. She examines these alongside the FBI's interview with his mother, inmate-reported obsessive behaviors, and the psychological dimensions of his emotionless guilty plea to four consecutive life terms.In the D4vd segment, Scott examines both the alleged psychology of the accused — from the reported years-long pattern of alleged contact with a minor to the alleged post-mortem conduct prosecutors describe — and the bystander dynamics that prosecutors allege allowed a fourteen-year-old to be allegedly hidden among adults who reportedly never questioned the cover story. Three grand juries heard testimony from friends, managers, and family. Scott applies clinical frameworks to explain how alleged predatory behavior may reportedly persist when professional loyalty, financial entanglement, and social conformity converge.Burke has pleaded not guilty to all charges and maintains his innocence.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
