  • I took my Dad to AA | Man talks with Therapist about Alcoholism

    In this session, Zak and Stephen go back in time a little as Stephen recalls what it was like for him growing up. They also talk about the classic idea of what people think of as a father, versus the real fathers that we have in life. And an old favourite pops it's head again - Stephen's overly developed sense of responsibilty.

    This is Real Talk Therapy. And you are welcome to listen.

  • Overcoming Ego and Identity and Just Being

    In today's REAL THERAPY session, Zak and Stephen discuss more about Stephen's grappling with what it is to be a man. Until Zak poses a very succinct question "why does this bother you so much?". This prompts a change in course, where the idea of identity and self can become all consuming, and perhaps we should be more open as humans to the idea of just being. Being without grand ideas of ourselves, being without fixed identities. Just being. Something for Every Human Here.
