Sarah Jones came to the couch and left us speechless. The Tony-winning performer gets radically honest about how she's been "cheating" on every partner—not with another person, but with a fantasy version of who they could become. From there, we spiral into the messy truth about workaholism as a post-traumatic inherited response (yes, she connects it all the way back), and why Trisha Hersey's Rest Is Resistance is the book that changed everything. We dig into messy mail from a listener carrying heartbreak they can't shake, and Sarah delivers the kind of advice that will inspire you to write the text you're waiting for him to send, and send it to yourself. Plus: grief doesn't come with a timeline, quitting is a boss move, therapy shouldn't be your whole identity, and a whispered truth like soup for the soul.
