114. Patreon Selects: An Actor, a Sommelier, and a Poker Player Walk Into a Bar
18 Jul 2022
Carrie and Ben are joined by friend of the podcast Rachel Bennett to talk about how their past careers have shaped their identities as therapists. Topics include: How working in fine dining informs the importance of being of service and providing experiences to therapy clients How very few people in therapy and acting know what they're doing and how this helps with impostor syndrome The humility required to be a successful poker player and therapist, as well as the need to separate short-term results from long-term process The importance of learning how to self-regulate in the presence of others How all of this (as always) relates to feedback-informed treatment Thank you for listening.
