Existing as a flawed human creature is a messy, unpredictable and imperfect art, so how are people setting themselves up as experts on the matter?
In this episode, we:
- Call bullshit on self-proclaimed experts in the wellbeing scene
- We tackle Imposter syndrome when you’re a mental health professional whose life is falling apart
- And we celebrate the power and skill of truly witnessing someone (which doesn’t require a certification)
