Grad School Is a Masochistic Act

w/ Aliza Jay

Bonus

In a long-awaited episode, Julia is joined by her PhD bestina Jewish Aliza for a multifaceted discussion about mental illness, psychology programs, and the hell of grad school. The girlies differentiate between the many ways to become a therapist, affirm psychodynamic supremacy, navigate how to practice with an online presence, and unpack how they try (and fail) to maintain their sanity. Digressions include the need for bipolar lesbian representation, Aliza’s Catherine Zeta-Jones themed Bat Mitzvah, and the importance of reaching out to randos.
