This BONUS episode is another layer to Season 1 episode where I share a lot of questions or thoughts many of us have when it comes to therapy.  

Sometimes we can see therapy from a different perspective  and sometimes see it as a person we can talk to when we don't have a person to talk to with a good or understanding or even judgmental way. Sometimes we need someone to simply share a different way to help us see ourselves. 

Sometimes talking things out only takes us so far and sometimes we need to get to step 2 of making progress with what we need to get through.

This is where I share more about the process.
