In this episode, guest, Chrissy and I talk about addiction, mental health, and loss. How her struggles with those in her own life gives her a great perspective on how to help her clients as she works toward her doctorate degree in counseling psychology.

Chrissy also speaks at great lengths about the role of privilege in one's mental and physical health, as well as in how it affects addiction.
