Couch Talks is the bonus episode of You Need Theray where Kat answers questions that listeners send to kathryn@youneedtherapypodcast.com. This week Kat processes a listener’s email about dating for the first time after getting divorced from an emotionally toxic partner. What does it mean when we aren’t OBSESSING over someone when we aren’t with them? Do we not like them OR maybe we like them a healthy amount? Kat talks about some of the unrealistic expectations we have for our partners and ways to decipher if we want to move forward in a relationship or pump the breaks.

This week Kat is back discussing her internal dialogue involving cults and the power of brainwashing. After watching a recent Netflix documentary about a so called "dance management TikTok cult" Kat wanted to create a conversation around how and why we label people involved in these spaces as delusional, brainwashed, and incapable of making rational decisions. The questions left for you to answer is, are those assumptions fair or true?

Kat answers a listener’s question about compassion fatigue and talks about burn out in helping professions.  

Our listener has been having a difficult time coping with work lately – she works with cancer patients trying to help them engage in meaningful leisure activities. The job is so rewarding but she is feeling drained.

She’s finding a lack of motivation in motivating others and asks Kat for advice because compassion fatigue is real!

Most jobs come with their struggles, you can have gratitude for the specific brand of “hard” that you get to deal with but also acknowledge that things are difficult, frustrating and there will be times when you are “over it”.
