Relationships. Utterly key to our ability to function with optimism, contentment, and creativity. But how much do we take care of them? Relationship with ourselves? Partners, professional or romantic? With society?

Psychotherapist Allison Heiliczer joins The Creative Condition for the latest in a series of specific mental health topic episodes as we take a long look into the relationship mirror.

We cover:

  • Chaotic brains
  • Finding the right tribe for these brains
  • Negative identities
  • The finding time myth
  • Loneliness and isolation
  • The control illusion
