In this episode of Alec Mapa: Hot Mess with Matthew Dempsey Psychotherapist, Alec and Matthew are excited to welcome the star of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 13 and the reigning National Ms. Comedy Queen, Tina Burner to the show for an inspiring conversation about how to turn adversity into strength. Tina opens up about her challenging childhood and the impact that has had on her life. Matt, Alec, and Tina talk about becoming “parentified,” freeing yourself from the victim mentality and the helpful belief that everything happens for us, not to us. Stay tuned for Tina’s hilarious story of the time her father barged into her bedroom and found her in bed with a man! https://www.instagram.com/thetinaburner/ https://www.youtube.com/c/TinaBurner https://twitter.com/TheTinaBurner https://www.instagram.com/alecmapa/ https://www.youtube.com/user/wapa710 https://twitter.com/alecmapa https://www.facebook.com/people/Alec-Mapa/100057653426944/ https://www.instagram.com/mjdempseypsych/ https://www.facebook.com/mjdempseypsych/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfgOmfPKTaarlwGmgIWzOaQ https://twitter.com/MJDempseyPsych   http://stage29.tv/  https://www.instagram.com/stage29podcasts  https://twitter.com/stage29podcasts  https://www.facebook.com/Stage29Podcasts  Learn more about your ad choices.

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
