In this episode of the Psyched to Practice Podcast, Ray Christner explores the metaphor of March Madness in relation to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

Ray emphasizes the importance of resilience and acceptance of imperfection in both sports and life decisions, encouraging listeners to use cultural metaphors in their therapeutic practices.
