There's the life you pictured, and then there's the one you're actually living. What happens in the space between them?
In this episode, we talk with Dr. Molly Burrets, licensed clinical psychologist and couples therapist with 20 years of experience in relationships and women's mental health, about what happens when life stops following the plan. Drawing on her work with women and couples, and on her own story, Dr. Molly opens up about the parts of this experience that so many of us carry quietly.
Together, we sit with the questions that surface when the future you imagined starts to look different. Who are you when the plan falls apart? How do you stay close to the people you love when you're hurting in different ways? And what do you do with a dream you're not sure you can let go of?
