RECLAIM with Thais Sky
Thais Sky
RECLAIM is a podcast where I examine, interrogate and reclaim pop psychology, self-help and wellness ideas. There are a lot of ideas out there on how to live your best life. It can be hard to know what conflicting advice to follow. I am Thais Sky and as a psychotherapist, I am here to add context and nuance to the conversation so you can discern what will work best for you in living the life you want. I am sometimes joined by incredible guests who offer a vast array of expertise and wisdom in the realms of psychology, self-development, relationships, money, worthiness, politics, philosophy, entrepreneurship, sex, social justice and more. Welcome!
