Today on Therapy is Dope with Alicia and Laura, we unpack the messy, beautiful, complicated framework of family — the one you were born into, the one you choose, and the one you’re still learning to build.
We explore:
🌿 How challenging traditional ideas of family can open space for healing
💔 Different types of loss — not just death, but identity shifts, relationship changes, and the grief that comes with growth
🤝 Connection with others and yourself, and why it’s essential for emotional regulation
🧠 Authenticity vs. performance — learning to show up as your real self
💛 Letting go of self-judgment and replacing it with curiosity, compassion, and understanding
This episode is honest, relatable, and full of practical insight for anyone navigating relationships, healing, self-discovery, or redefining what “family” means to them.
If you’ve ever felt disconnected, misunderstood, or hard on yourself — this one will hit home.
