We have a very special episode this week. My beautiful friend Gianna Kiehl is returning to America after almost eight years living in the U.K. This episode is a discussion of the bond we have formed over the past eight years and the love we share. We also explore topics such as the dichotomy between British and American culture, race, gender identity, finding meaning in life, what both of us want in the future, plus Gianna reads a poem Dan wrote especially for her. It was one of the greatest conversations I've ever had, with the one of the greatest people I've ever had the privilege to meet.

CONTENT WARNING!: Discussions of eating disorders, body dysmorphia and disordered eating.
