Fairytales and dreams can help us heal and prosper exactly because they are not as rational as accounts or explanations. And, as you will see, I myself got carried away and am now delivering a slightly different episode. Laura is an award-winning filmmaker I had a million different questions for about the creative process, power of stories, listening to feedback, and much, much more. We also touched on politics, the myth of the phoenix, and ancient Greek poetry.

In this episode, Pamela opened up about her struggle with OCD early in life and described the trajectory toward healing that she followed. We discussed why it's important not run away immediately when undesired emotions but to accept them as part of human experience. We also discussed mental health and what the biggest obstacle is that stands between it and people. Other topics that came up include CBT, the concept of Purity, what it feels like to be mentally healthy (hint: it's not happiness), and much, much more.

Deep Hanging Out is about taking the time to discuss a topic important to both sides at length and in depth. This series came to be as Catherine and I both raised questions to one another about Community.
This last part is a reflection on two different experiences we had in the spring of 2022 meeting and collaborating with internet friends "in real life", as they say. We hope you enjoy and find what to take away with you!

What stops us from embarking on the journeys we want to experience but are afraid of? And how should go about starting them despite our concerns? Sushil and I discussed the kind of attitude that's necessary for making our first steps in any field. We touched on many topics, including comedy, Transactional Analysis, energetic vampires, self-pity, reward systems, and much more.
