In relationships part 2 we focus on exploring a tool called the non-escalator relationship menu. Shared with us by a friend who first discovered the menu on reddit (thank you internet crowdsourcing!) This tool is awesome. Chelsea believes that if everyone filled this form out and walked around with and exchanged with others, we would get to the core of compatibility a lot faster. One of my requirements is hourly texting and you don't own a phone? Oh? Easy, we should NOT date." This sounds dry as I type it but truly, this tool is awesome. And we cover only three sub items on this episode so it becomes clear how much this menu can open up conversations for those interested in being in connection with someone else.

It's the start of season three! Holy cow!

In this episode we stumble into a new ongoing series about relationships. Friendships, romantic relationships, family...all types of relationships will be included and can benefit from the ideas and tools we will be discussing.

In relationships part 1 we discuss the idea that relationships don't have to be hard (and how we somewhat disagree about this), the impact of issues of security (housing, finances, raising children) on relationships, loneliness and shame, and security v. freedom as ways people keep themselves safe and feel secure.

In this episode we explore a number of myths about therapy such as "you have to unpack your deepest shit" or "I have to give them all the background information". We also touch on things that listeners shared have been surprising to them about therapy. We hope this episode gives you some new insight into therapy and demystifies some of it.
