About this listen

In this episode, we're talking to licensed therapist and mental health writer Dr. Kathleen Smith about how to stop people pleasing and start being yourself. Kathleen's latest book True to You is a relatable self-help guide for people who want to learn to live less focused on others’ reactions and more confidently by their own principles. We chat about Bowen family systems theory and how learning more about your family can help you learn about yourself.


Our second book is The Social Lives of Animals by Ashley Ward. In this book, biologist Ashley Ward takes us on a wild tour across the globe as he searches for a more accurate picture of how animals build societies. We chat about the social impulses of animals and how they be more connected to us than we think.


If you’d like to reach out with your own recommendations or are a mental health practitioner interested in coming on to share, you can email us at booksfromyourtherapist@gmail.com.
