S4E10 - The "Episode" Episode, Pt. 5: Feeling Your Feelings

In this episode, Lexi breaks down their recent breakdown, AGAIN! Lately, they've been feeling overwhelmed and burnt out and their central nervous system is on overdrive, causing Lexi to be more reactive than usual. Lexi walks listeners through the experience, what they were feeling, and the reflection that followed, ultimately realizing that much of their emotional dysregulation comes from a lifetime of feeling guilty about their emotions.
