OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
An interview with our friend, Maeve Forti (part 2 of 2). Maeve is a multi-hyphenated powerhouse. She's a gifted improviser and talented actor on screen and on stage. And if that wasn't enough, Maeve is also an up-and-coming filmmaker and writer. We discuss her recent OCD diagnosis, living with ADHD and traumatic grief. Also, we talk about compulsions, using school to prove our normalcy and our psychiatrists not validating us enough.
If you enjoyed Maeve's interview episodes, be sure to check out our interview with Ege Öztokat (episode 12).
