I don't really feel comfortable airing this out.

Sure.

Yeah, I've been a therapist for a little over 20 years now.

I primarily work with individuals and couples.

My specialty used to be working with people that felt really, really anxious in relationships and what that does to them, how they show up in relationships.

But I've been seeing couples and families now for, yeah, for 20 years.

And I've been posting content on TikTok and Instagram for about five years now.

I have been.

I've always been a fan.

I've actually the first reality show that I was a huge fan of was The Bachelor.

So I was a fan of yours for a while, but I've watched every season ever since it premiered.

And I'm a little disappointed that we don't get this recent one.

I'm rooting for Dakota and Taylor.

I find them both to be really likable in lots of different ways and also kind of scary and concerning in other ways.

I think both of them are kind of suffering from like this high insight and low change sort of situation where even on your podcast and when they talk to the camera or they do interviews or they do reunions, it really feels like they understand what is going on

with them like emotionally and in their psyche and the way that they i don't think that they're kind of using therapy speak in and like in a not in a genuine way i think they're using it in a way because they go to therapy they understand themselves they have a bunch of insight but i think part of the problem is that they talk about their insight so much that it feels like change in a way or it feels like they could change but when the rubber hits the road

They don't change and it feels really upsetting.

And then they have this like abuse pattern that they cycle through over and over again.

So, yeah, I'm rooting for them.

I also see myself.
