Megan Bruneau is a therapist, executive coach, and podcast host. Furthermore, she has been Drew’s therapist for the past few years! In this episode, Drew and Megan chat about why we develop coping mechanisms, the power of learning to regulate your emotions, the importance of experiencing pain rather than numbing it, the role of psychedelics in therapy, and much more!
HIGHLIGHTS:
[02:03] Megan’s traumatic childhood, how she came to love helping others, and her own struggles with an eating disorder.
[18:58] The reason that people develop coping mechanisms, the true power of regulating your emotions, and how Megan ultimately overcame her eating disorder.
[35:31] The significance of spirituality in Megan’s recovery process, and how society often pushes people to neglect their health in favor of looking a certain way.
[44:18] How to feel painful emotions without struggling against them, and the benefits of therapy that are often portrayed as weak or “emotional.”
[53:50] The future role of psychedelics in therapy, and the proper way to approach their use.
