Get Real w/ Austin Ryde

Special guest, Julia Alperovich, a licensed marriage and family therapist, joins Austin to talk about dating, sex, and intimacy in 2023. Whether it be social media and the internet or core beliefs from our upbringing that have skewed our reality, the way we handle these very real life situations has changed over time. Who better to talk about these things than a trained professional and Austin's very own therapist. 

With Austin turning thirty in April, he decided the best way to celebrate was to reflect on the most valuable life lessons he has learned in his 30 years. Some are associated with funny stories, some lessons learned from bad decisions, but all of them shaping him into the man he is today. This is an episode for anyone, of any age, interested in hearing what lessons Austin finds most prominent and most necessary.  

On the latest episode of Get Real w/ Austin Ryde, Austin is joined by friends and mental health advocate, Rachel Slawson. Between her own battles with a mental health diagnosis, suicide attempts, a manic episode and her experience helping others with personal struggles, Austin and Rachel take a deep dive into what we can all do to improve the stigmas around mental health and illness.

Austin is back from a long hiatus and ready to talk about real life stuff- like breakups! Who better to dive deep into heartbreak than someone who just went through it? He talks about the pain of ending a serious relationship, mistakes made, lessons learned, and how a life experience like a breakup can launch you into the "growth zone".
