3.1 Are We Over-Therapized? When Healing Becomes a Hobby


Listen Later

You’ve got boundaries, triggers, and toxic traits—but do you have a therapist? 👀

In this episode, Laura and Claire unpack the rise of therapy-speak and how we’ve turned healing into a hobby and trauma into a TikTok trend. From calling your ex a narcissist (because a girl on Instagram said so) to diagnosing your boss as “emotionally unavailable,” we’re all fluent in self-help now—just not always fluent in self-awareness.


🧠 What we get into:

    •    How “doing the work” turned into posting about the work

    •    Why therapy language makes great content but terrible communication

    •    The fine line between “I’m setting boundaries” and “I’m just avoiding accountability”

    •    And how your words are literally building the house you have to live in 🏠


It’s funny. It’s honest. It’s slightly uncomfortable—like realizing your “healing era” might actually be your “main character delusion.” 😅
