my sweet sweet darlings, do i have a show for you! the star of today’s show is researcher erica bailey, who focuses her research on organizational behavior and authenticity. in this little epi we unpack some BIG questions, including but not limited to:

  • is the internet ruining all of our relationships?
  • why does authenticity matter in therapeutic relationships?
  • how do we as caregivers use social media to foster therapeutic relationships?
  • what is authenticity, even?
  • what does it feel like to be a person?
  • what does it feel to have a self?
  • how cute is it that we understand ourselves and also don’t?
  • and isn’t it kind of adorable that human beings even wanted to invent social media in the first place?
  • is Gen X actually immune from our millennial bullshit on the internet?
  • how do we maintain boundaries and sense of self online?
  • what is so therapeutic about posting glitter makeup selfies online?
  • and we answer the defining question of our time:
 ARE YOU DOING THE WORK?!?!

and the pillars of erica bailey’s bedside manner:

// creating a space where people can be seen
 // express themselves
 // be connected
