My father is arguably one of the closest people to me and its been said that we share a lot of the same qualities. My father and I sit down in this very first episode of the Unbecoming a therapist podcast to discuss my journey of taking on the therapist identity and finally peeling it off.

He affectionally referred to my ability to listen, intuit, and perceive peoples emotions as “the gift”. discovering on my journey how I began to only relate to people through this defense mechanism, it later became thought of as “the curse”.

In this episode, we discuss what it was like for him and I to smoke weed together for the first time, how he felt about my mother being 10 years his senior, what it was like for me to come out to him, his agreement he made to himself at just 5 years old, what it was like to grow up without a father, and the lessons we've learned from each other over the years.

Welcome to Unbecoming a Therapist. First Episode coming soon!!!!
