Totally Fine with Tiffany Philippou

A podcast about those times when we were not ‘totally fine’. Listen as host Tiffany Philippou, author of the best-selling memoir, Totally Fine (And Other Lies I've Told Myself), talks to guests about life-altering experiences that shaped who they are today, but which they wanted to pretend never happened in the first place. This is a show about how it's not just what happens to us, but the stigma we feel and how we suppress it, that affects us so deeply. And in having these conversations, we quiet the shame monster and remember that we’re not alone.  Buy Tiffany Philippou's book, Totally Fine (and other lies I've told myself)  Amazon anywhere in the world: https://buff.ly/3FpHKZa Other retailers in the UK: https://www.tiffanyphilippou.com/book Hosted on Acast.
