No, You're Not Dying
Mother-daughter duo Beth (a PhD clinical psychologist) and Joyce (a chronic over-thinking millennial) love to sit and chat about finding balance in the never-ending ups and downs of life - so much so, that they turned it into a podcast.
Join them every week for a candid conversation about the many ways in which life impacts our mental health, how psychology can shift your perspective, and why even if you feel like you’re dying, you’re probably not. Kinda funny, never scripted, always honest - so join the conversation!

No, You're Not Dying
It's My Birthday and I'll Be Sad If I Want To!
It is even really a birthday if you don't have a crying selfie?
In honor of Joyce's 31st birthday - in our 31st episode, no less - we're talking about the complicated feelings around celebrating another year around the sun. On one hand, yay, it's your day of birth and there's so much to look forward to! On the other hand, time is flying and you're just getting older and it's time to mourn your youth.
We dive into how having grand expectations can lead to disappointment, why you shouldn't compare your age against milestones other people are hitting, and why tempering your feelings can actually make you happier in the long run.
We also chat about the ultimate existential crisis of attachment, grandma hobbies and how youth is wasted on the young, why we should look at every decade as a new adventure, and why it's all silly anyway because do you really remember every birthday you've ever had?
