Welcome back! This week we are joined by Anna Yusim, Psychiatrist and Author of the book Fulfilled: The Science of Spirituality and How it Can Help You Live a Happier, More Meaningful Life. In this episode we go deep into the impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on love and relationships and in many cases caused us to take a deeper look at our connection with our own selves. Anna shares insights on the increasing rates of anxiety and mental health struggles, and gives her own professional advice on how to overcome these obstacles. She shares her journey of traveling around the world and researching what the soul is and how other Countries define it. We really go deep into ways you can better connect with yourself and identify your emotions. We also talk about: settling in relationships, "soulmates", manifestation, therapy vs. psychiatry, and ways to meet people.

You can find Anna on Instagram @annayusim or on her Website annayusim.com and you can find her book in stores or on Amazon here.

What we're trying this week:
