I was stuck in a moment and couldn't get out of it (for five months). Get it? (It's from a U2 song, kind of.) Consider this My Therapy 3.0, where I jump-start this podcast again after a lengthy hiatus. My wife Caitlyn joins as we discuss a major transition in our lives, struggle to find health care in a new province, recap my challenges with depression over recent months, provide a brief synopsis of past podcast episodes, and tease what may be to come.
