Your Therapist Needs Therapy 164 - The Rise of the Tiny Tyrant

This week Jeremy talks about the tiny tyrants who make everyday life miserable. From HOA presidents and angry customers to sports parents screaming at umpires, we unpacked why small amounts of power can bring out our worst impulses. We explore the psychology and social conditions that turn ordinary people into enforcers, and what it looks like to use the small amounts of power we all have to build community instead of hierarchy.As always, Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube.
