ever since recording this episode, i've noticed "translocation" showing up everywhere.
maybe it's availability bias. maybe it's confirmation bias.
or maybe translocation has quietly become the leading cause of infection in modern medicine.
we offer you a 30 minute glimpse into the mind of brooke fraser in the latest episode of the bundle.
particular thanks to our co-host, who prepared and recorded this episode while navigating several major life events (all positive).
listen, share, follow, and enjoy.
don't miss our latest episode of bundles (feat. brooke fraser).
perfect for listening on your commute, as you relax before sleep, or during your workout.
i was so excited to have brooke back that i had to re-record my opening line to dial back the intensity.
link below:
this episode was prompted by a colleague who reminded me, during an inpt consult, that she might be the one left sorting through unresolved issues after d/c.
sometimes i inherit the loose ends. and, being honest, sometimes i create them.
my aim here was more reflection than criticism.
the latest episode of the host response is out: liars who lie.
this is probably the best episode we've done yet...but you should make sure for yourself, rather than taking my word for it.
