    Esther Calling - I’m Afraid of Losing More Than Just the Business

    She’s watching the company she co-founded unravel—strained partnerships, family entanglements, and the weight of guilt, anger, and responsibility pulling her in every direction. Now she wants to ask Esther: how can she protect her relationship with her brothers but still free herself to move on to what’s next? Esther Callings are a one time, 45-60 minute interventional phone call with Esther. They are edited for time, clarity, and anonymity. If you have a question you would like to talk through with Esther, send a voice memo to producer@estherperel.com. Over the last few years, workplace culture has been transformed by remote work, inconsistent in-office presence, and an intergenerational workforce. Where Should We Begin? At Work is a new game designed to transform your work culture – one story and one relationship at a time. Brought to you by Esther Perel and Culture Amp, this isn’t your typical icebreaker. It’s a new data-backed game that will help you create community at work. Details at https://game.estherperel.com/products/where-should-we-begin-at-work Want to learn more?

    Behind the Session - A Secret I Can't Even Tell My Therapist

    Esther talks with her producer Jesse about what people choose to share—or keep hidden—from their therapists. From silence rooted in shame or fear of judgment, to secrets that reshape the therapeutic relationship, together they revisit a recent session where a woman concealed a major decision from her long-time therapist. Esther reflects on what silence means in therapy, and what can happen when those secrets finally come to light.

    Grief Begins With Love With Julia Samuel

    Friendship - My Reliable Gift

    This is a classic session of Where Should We Begin? In a Where Should We Begin first, Esther sits down with two friends. They’ve been close for so long they feel like brothers, with all of the baggage that comes with family but none of the certainty. There are things that go unspoken between them, issues they have skimmed over in their two decades of friendship. Esther creates the space for the conversation they didn't know quite where to begin. This session was recorded in collaboration with NPR's Invisibilia and a sibling episode with Esther can be heard on their podcast this week as well. Want to learn more?
