Nothing To Fix

Can't we just stop fighting?

Gloria and Jordan discuss how fighting — whether it be with a partner, a friend, or a family member — can actually be a very useful therapeutic tool. Sometimes, arguing turns into a kind of competition, with a winner and a loser at the end. But these moments of friction can also reveal important things about ourselves and our loved ones, which, in turn, help us build stronger relationships in the future.  -   Find us: Nothing To Fix substack [https://substack.com/@nothingtofixpod] Tip us on Kofi [https://ko-fi.com/nothingtofixpod] Instagram: @nothingtofixpod Email: nothingtofixpod@gmail.com Website: nothingtofixpod.com [https://nothingtofixpod.com/] - Nothing To Fix is produced by Georgia Hampton, with promotion by Isabelle Haines, and logo design by Breanna Smith.

What's the point of feeling bad?

Gloria and Jordan explore the difficult, often uncomfortable places that therapy can take us, and why those moments matter. Staying with a painful feeling can feel, well, painful. But in order to better understand ourselves and our experiences, it's important to sit with these sensations a little bit longer. -   Find us: Nothing To Fix substack [https://substack.com/@nothingtofixpod] Tip us on Kofi [https://ko-fi.com/nothingtofixpod] Instagram: @nothingtofixpod Email: nothingtofixpod@gmail.com Website: nothingtofixpod.com [https://nothingtofixpod.com/] - Nothing To Fix is produced by Georgia Hampton, with promotion by Isabelle Haines, and logo design by Breanna Smith.

What does the past have to do with me now?

Gloria and Jordan discuss the importance of the past on our present lives. Sometimes, it feels counterintuitive to look back in order to move forward. So, how does history — of our own lives and the lives of our ancestors — guide us toward a better understanding of ourselves now? -   Find us: Nothing To Fix substack [https://substack.com/@nothingtofixpod] Tip us on Kofi [https://ko-fi.com/nothingtofixpod] Instagram: @nothingtofixpod Email: nothingtofixpod@gmail.com Website: nothingtofixpod.com [https://nothingtofixpod.com/] - Nothing To Fix is produced by Georgia Hampton, with promotion by Isabelle Haines, and logo design by Breanna Smith.

What's therapy going to do for me?

Gloria and Jordan discuss the many unexpected effects of therapy for clients and psychotherapists alike. How do we move through the difficult feelings that come up in a session, and how do those feelings guide us to a better understanding of ourselves? -   Find us: Nothing To Fix substack [https://substack.com/@nothingtofixpod] Tip us on Kofi [https://ko-fi.com/nothingtofixpod] Instagram: @nothingtofixpod Email: nothingtofixpod@gmail.com Website: nothingtofixpod.com [https://nothingtofixpod.com/] - Nothing To Fix is produced by Georgia Hampton, with promotion by Isabelle Haines, and logo design by Breanna Smith.

Episode 0: How Therapy Helps Therapists

Welcome to Nothing To Fix, a podcast about the messy, contradictory nature of healing hosted by psychotherapists Jordan Alam and Gloria Huh. In a mental health culture where *you* are often considered the problem, Jordan and Gloria are here to consider if we're just using imperfect tools to survive in an imperfect world. What if, actually, there's nothing to fix?  To kick things off, Jordan and Gloria talk about their own relationship to therapy, both as practitioners and as patients. How does therapy open doors, complicate our ideas about ourselves, and challenge us to see things not in black and white, but in shades of gray?  - Nothing To Fix is produced by Georgia Hampton, with promotion by Isabelle Haines, and logo design by Breanna Smith.
