Leave the Chat

The Story

Episode 32

New here? Welcome! Stef reintroduces herself as the pod keeps growing (hi, hello, stay a while). This week, she talks about getting humbled in a workout class, then dives into the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives—and how obsessing over every tiny detail can actually make your life harder, not better.

A viral TikTok video sparked some panic about therapists “only hearing one side” of a story. But Stef’s here to normalize zooming out. Sometimes you don’t need every perspective. Sometimes the why behind a relationship matters more than the what.

If you need permission to leave the chat, stop spiraling, or stop collecting evidence—this one’s for you.
