    This week, Brijesh and Kirti start with a relatable story of how we regret a bad mark on a test. Is this a positive emotion? Why is it so relatable if it isn’t? This discussion brings a new perspective to be taken on the word regret, what it should mean, and if there are any benefits to regretting. Come join the discussion of their own experiences with regret and what current research has to say about the value behind regretting!

  • Mental Health Talk #3: Talkin' Therapy
    This week's episode is part of our Mental Health Talk series! Today Brijesh & Kirti discuss therapy: a somewhat intimidating topic, but they're here to make it all sound a little less daunting. The world views therapy in many ways, but one thing we have in common is this idea of an old man with glasses and a notepad asking you, "...and how does that make you feel?" as you lay down on a couch, facing the ceiling. But is this really how it is? These two discuss this idea, along with many other topics regarding therapy: its cultural stigmas, costs, different types of therapy, and lots more. With Kirti's personal experience of being in therapy for a couple years, and Brijesh's above average (probably) knowledge on mental health, an interesting conversation is sparked. Enjoy and get educated!
