Don't Believe Everything You Think

from Unhurried · host Kayla Ackelson

https://betterhelp.com/unhurried⁠BetterHelp is the sponsor of this episode and they are on a mission to make starting therapy easier. I am so excited to announce my newest partnership with BetterHelp because therapy has been pivotal in my own self-love journey. As someone who resisted it for a really long time, I know how hard it can be to start. I actually recently decided to start going back to therapy and kind of start over with a new therapist and honestly, it's not easy. Retelling your story, hoping they connect the dots, but I chose to go back for a lot of reasons. So that I can be a better parent. So that I can be the best mama to Miles that I can be. So that I can safely process emotions I'm experiencing. So that I can give myself grace and compassion when I don't want to. So that I can offer grace and compassion to others when I don't want to, and so that I can feel validated in my own experiences. My therapist has been so helpful with really big life obstacles and also just day-to-day things that we all struggle with. All of that to say, if you're thinking about starting or restarting your therapy journey, I invite you to try BetterHelp. I've been enjoying my experience and it is so accessible. With BetterHelp, you can connect with a licensed therapist online from the comfort of your own home through video, phone, or even live chat. therapy has never been easier.

The MOOD Podcast Matt Jacob The MOOD Podcast is a long-form conversation series exploring photography, creativity, identity, and the inner life of artists. Hosted by Matt Jacob, the show moves beyond technique and trends to examine why people make work, how creative voices are formed, and what it takes to sustain a meaningful artistic life.Through thoughtful, unhurried conversations with photographers, filmmakers, and creative thinkers from around the world, the podcast explores themes of process, mental health, ethics, purpose, legacy, and the tension between art and industry.

Part of grief is feeling quite isolated, so when you realize, ‘Oh, it's not just me,’ It does help.” In each episode, Lloyd makes space for natural, unhurried conversations for her guests to talk about death where, in her words, “Nobody’s going to change the subject.”In 2016, the British actor, comedian, and writer came up with the idea of starting the show when she realized a lot of her comedian friends were doing podcasts.
