Hilah tells about her experience paying a psychic therapist to reveal a bunch of stuff she already knows about herself and how it ended up super depressing and sent her back to her old counselor. They talk about the dangers of overdoing it on talk therapy without also figuring out ways to cope and deal and become more resilient. Hilah is still considering getting another Akashic reading from the first person she talked with (ep 31) and Jessie's had enough of the nonsense but still believes in "regular psychics". Hilah recalls taking a personality and IQ test from the Church of Scientology. Jessie admits to once spending $600 on a phone psychic. No helpful advice is given in this episode.
