How It Started, How It’s Going: Season 1 Wrap-Up

Season 1: complete! In this wrap-up episode, Margaret and I reflect on what it’s been like building this show from scratch—while also being full-time psychiatry residents. We talk about favorite episodes, unexpected challenges, what we’re still figuring out, and what’s ahead for Season 2. We also answer listener questions about training, creativity, psychedelics, and the eternal search for balance when your brain wants art and your calendar says “clinic.” There’s some honesty, some gratitude, and a whole lot of behind-the-scenes chaos. Takeaways: This podcast started as exposure therapy—and became a little bit of everything. Talking into a mic is not the same as talking into a TikTok. (Spoiler: I struggled way more than I thought I would.) My favorite episodes? The ones that made us play. Guest experts, weird improv scenes, and stuff we’ll probably regret saying on camera. We’re learning in public—about psychiatry, about medicine, and about ourselves. And yeah, we definitely got some things wrong along the way. We’re not stopping. Season 2 is coming, and we’re getting even weirder (and maybe wiser) next time. -- Watch on YouTube: @itspresro Listen Anywhere You Podcast: Apple, Spotify, PodChaser, etc. — Produced by Dr Glaucomflecken & Human Content Get in Touch: ⁠⁠⁠howtobepatientpod.com Learn more about your ad choices.
