Weed and its Impact on the Relationship with Dad

One of the most common complaints from high-performers? “I can’t turn off my brain.” So we turn to doomscrolling, alcohol and other substances. Tara Schuster used weed to cope — until she blacked out and left a terrifying voice message for her therapist. [Episode 26]

Tara is a former executive at Comedy Central (Key and Peele, David Spade) and 2x best-selling author.

This episode discusses suicide. If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available. Call or text 988 or visit988lifeline.org
