S8 Ep 10: When Psychology Explains Everything but Fixes Nothing
In this episode of Raw and Real, Danah and Stacy sit down with psychologist Lex Ledesma for a deep, unfiltered conversation about psychology, faith, and why modern self-help culture may be doing more harm than good.
They explore the tension between psychology’s focus on thoughts and feelings and spirituality’s emphasis on discipline, discernment, and action. From the limits of therapy and the rise of self-diagnosis, to the role of faith as a protective factor in suffering, this episode challenges the idea that healing starts by “honoring every feeling.”
Instead, the conversation asks a harder question: What if transformation begins not with how we feel—but with how we act?
This is a grounded, honest discussion about identity, mental health, spiritual discernment, and why real growth often requires structure, responsibility, and self-discipline—not just self-expression. No buzzwords.
No shortcuts. Just truth, explored carefully.
