  • S3 E8: Content or Comfortable? The Fine Line Between Happiness and Complacency

    Send us Fan Mail

    What does it really mean to be happy—and how do we know when happiness turns into complacency? In this round table conversation, we explore the subtle but important difference between being genuinely content and simply being comfortable.

    Brooke, a therapist and alcohol and dependency counselor, joins us for this episode that centers on the power of self-reflection as a tool to evaluate our own lives, ambitions, and habits. Rather than judging others, we challenge the idea that complacency is a personal determination—one only the individual can truly define. We also unpack key questions around personal growth, fulfillment, and the level of effort we’re willing to invest in creating a life that aligns with our values.

    This episode invites listeners to look inward, reassess their definitions of happiness, and JOIN THE CONVERSATION!

  • Summer Bonus Episode #1: The Power—and Limits—of Empathy

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode, we sit down with Steph T. and Steph L. from Becoming Human AF Podcast for a thought-provoking conversation about empathy—what it is, how it shows up in our lives, and where it sometimes runs thin.

    Together, we unpack:

    🔹 How our own empathy influences how we perceive others’ empathy
    🔹 The unfair societal expectations that ask women to over-empathize and assume men don’t at all
    🔹 The tension between being a listener and being a fixer
    🔹 The role of empathy in connecting us to our shared humanity
    🔹 What happens when empathy runs dry—aka, empathy burnout

    This isn’t just a trending topic—it’s a deeply human one. And this episode will challenge the way you think about emotional connection in a noisy, reactive world.

    If you enjoy this conversation, be sure to follow the Stephs and check out Becoming Human AF—where real friendship meets real talk.
