ABOUT THIS EPISODE

If Everything Is Trauma, Nothing Is. Dr. Les Parrott on Overthinking, Trauma Culture, and Why Love Refuses to Coddle You.

Dr. Les Parrott joins me for a conversation that refuses the comfort of our cultural vocabulary. As a clinical psychologist, Les insists that pain isn't the same thing as trauma, and that the difference lies in what an experience has done to your capacity to feel safe and function, not in how much it hurt. From there we press into love itself, because rescuing people from the consequences of their choices can feel like compassion while keeping them small.

About Dr. Les Parrott

He created the Save Your Marriage Before It Starts (SYMBIS) Assessment, a premarital tool used by counselors around the world, and has given his career to helping people build healthy relationships.

You Made a god Out of Safety and Control. Dr. Alison Cook on Secure Attachment to God, the Certainty We Worship, and the Security Your Soul Was Built For.

You would never call it worship. You'd call it being responsible. But look at what you organize your life around, what you reach for the second the ground shifts, the thing you cannot fall asleep without having settled. You have built an altar to certainty, and you bow at it every time fear whisper…

Why We'd Rather Trick Ourselves Than Train Ourselves. Geoffrey Cain on What Steve Jobs's Wilderness Years Can Teach You About Failure, Ego, and Comeback.

You know the feeling. The world that once held shape around you — the role, the identity, the thing you built or pursued or believed about yourself — has come apart. And instead of leaning into the chaos and learning what it has to teach you, you've found a more comfortable option. You've construct…

You're Not in a Rough Season. You're EMPTY. Dr. Chris Palmer on the Meaning Crisis Hiding in Plain Sight.

You said you were fine, but fine is not a spiritual condition—it's a managed one. Fine means you've stopped expecting anything, stopped reaching for anything, and settled into the low hum of a life that moves without going anywhere. You're not in crisis. You're not walking away from the Lord. You'r…

"Self-Help Culture Is The Truest Form of Satanism." Christa Black Singh on Manifestation, the New Age Counterfeit in the Church, Psychedelics, and The Trap of Christianity Light.

You set out to have more faith, not to practice witchcraft, so nothing about your prayer life ever felt like sorcery. You were quoting Scripture the whole time. You learned to declare the promise, stand on the Word, and pray until the breakthrough came. But somewhere in there your prayers quietly s…
