What if everything you believe about mental health is wrong? In this episode, host Paula Felps chats with psychotherapist and author Joe Nucci about his myth-busting new book, Psychobabble: Viral Mental Health Myths & the Truths to Set You Free. Joe dives into the wild world of mental health misinformation — especially the kind that spreads like wildfire on social media. From self-diagnosis pitfalls to the overuse of therapy-speak, he offers a refreshing reality check and empowers listeners to better understand their emotional lives. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why not every tough emotion equals a mental illness — and why that distinction matters. How social media can distort mental health conversations (and what to watch out for). The difference between emotional intelligence and just “sounding like a therapist.”
