And How Does That Make You Feel?
Welcome to And How Does That Make You Feel? — an AWKN podcast that ungatekeeps what really happens in therapy. No fluff. No psycho-jargon. Just straight-talking insights from inside the therapist’s chair.
Each short episode gives you real tools, real stories, and practical takeaways for the stuff you're actually dealing with — anxiety, ADHD, relationships, burnout, trauma, identity, and everything in between.
This isn’t therapy. But it might just be the next best thing.
Hosted by the team at AWKN, a premium online therapy platform.

EP 231 — You Can Care About the World Without Carrying It All
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Caring about what’s happening in the world doesn’t mean you have to carry the emotional weight of it every moment. In this episode, we unpack the difference between empathy and emotional overload, why you may feel responsible for more than you can control, and how to stay compassionate without burning out — so you can care deeply without losing yourself in the process.
