For today's bonus episode, we talk to Molly Downs-Stoller.
Molly is a licensed marriage and family therapist that specializes with the LGBTQ+ community. Molly is a regular guest on the podcast and you can listen to her deconstruction story HERE.
Molly walks us through how our nervous systems protect us (even when we don't want them to sometimes). She also talks to us about how the answer is almost always to "feel our feelings".
