Theory and Practice 37 | Satya Doyle Byock, Psychotherapist & Author of Quarterlife: How to Cultivate Meaning & Stability in Your Twenties
Hi everyone!
I'm back with a very special episode.
Satya Doyle Byock joins us this week to discuss her book, Quarterlife: The Search for Self in Early Adulthood.
Satya is a psychotherapist and author focused on early adulthood. I read Quarterlife last year and loved it so much that I had to have her on the podcast.
P.S. We're all super busy and do not always have time to read all the books on our lists. Zero worries -- I published a TL;DR episode on Quarterlife for the Book of the Month series! Check it out here.
