What if we can’t truly understand ourselves until we tell our stories?
In this episode of the Made for People podcast, I sit down with Christian psychologist and author Curt Thompson to explore how friendship, vulnerability, and storytelling shape our mental and spiritual well-being. We discuss what a mentally healthy mind looks like, why we have a deep desire to be known, and how placing our lives in vulnerable relationships can bring clarity and healing.
We discuss:
✔️ Why we can’t understand ourselves until we tell our stories
✔️ How keeping secrets wastes neuropsychiatric energy
✔️ Why friendship liberates creativity in work and life
✔️ How being seen can literally heal your brain
✔️ Why you’re never writing or telling your story alone
Join us for this fascinating conversation on how deep relationships transform the way we see ourselves, tell our stories, and experience healing.
