If you ever doubt how magical this world is, one day you will decide to go to a World Cup watch party in Oakland that you found online to root for a country where you spent two years trying to coax English out of the mouths of Cape Verdean teenagers. 1/7

The benefits of psychotherapy don’t come from self-disclosure. They come from working through the inner obstacles (like shame and fear of judgment) to self-disclosure.

This work must happen in the therapy relationship. Take it outside the relationship and it’s no longer therapy.

I'm currently reading a comparison of health systems globally. There are about 4 sentences that really sum it up.

In 1899, a Hamburg steamer slipped into Glasgow carrying rats infected with plague.

Dockworkers fell ill, but politicians suppressed the news.

They were fearing that public acknowledgment would trigger quarantine and devastate trade.

The bacterium was Yersinia pestis, the same pathogen that had fueled the Black Death centuries earlier.
