Tap In, Tap Out

Happy Mental Health Awareness Month! The podcast is back for a discussion of identity, authenticity, and maintaining your mental health in the process of figuring all that out. I'm joined by Isaac (@isaacriverra), who is a dear friend that I met along my grad school journey. Isaac and I discuss our time working together as play-therapists, and talk about some of the TV I've been watching lately (namely Moonknight on Disney+ and Severance on AppleTV). Let me know your thoughts! Apologies for aspects of the audio on this episode; this was my first time trying out a live recording set up with more than one person. I know the episodes have been sparse this year but I appreciate all the love and support. Not sure where this particular podcast is headed after this but I'm keeping an open mind as always - thank you for exploring these ideas with me for the past 25 episodes! Be sure to follow me on my socials to stay up to date with what I'm doing moving forward.
