• 192 - When Self-Help Hurts: The Dark Side of Mental Health Trends

  Are social media influencers shaping how we view mental health—for better or worse? The growing trend of "Instagram therapy" is distorting what it truly means to heal and grow. From oversimplified “self-love” advice to outright inaccuracies, it's important to learn the truth about what’s helpful, what’s harmful, and how to develop real mental strength in today's world. Some of the things I share are: The rise of trendy "therapy speak" on social media—and why terms like "gaslighting" and "boundary setting" are often misused or misunderstood. How misinformation and oversimplifications in mental health content can do more harm than good. The dangers of self-diagnosis based on TikTok or Instagram quizzes Why the constant focus on “healing” can create unrealistic expectations and unnecessary pressure. The cultural obsession with protecting one’s peace and the downside of doing so. Red flags to watch out for when consuming mental health content online. Actionable tips for curating a healthier feed, including following evidence-based sources and engaging in offline practices for mental health.

• 191 — Are You Living a Psychologically Rich Life? Here's How to Find Out with Dr. Shigehiro Oishi

  Do you crave a richer, more adventurous life? In today's episode, we’re exploring the concept of a “psychologically rich life”—one filled with novel experiences, deeper connections, and a sense of wonder. It turns out that happiness and meaning aren’t the only ingredients for a fulfilling life. Psychological richness can add depth and vibrancy to your everyday routine. I'm talking to Dr. Shigehiro Oishi, a leading happiness researcher, psychologist, and celebrated author of Life in Three Dimensions. With a career spanning groundbreaking research on human well-being, he’s here to share what it means to live a genuinely adventurous and reflective life—and how to start making minor changes to experience more prosperous, more fulfilling days. Some of the things we discuss are: What makes a “psychologically rich life” (and why it’s different from happiness or meaning). Simple ways to add adventure and spontaneous joy to your daily routine. Why routines and rigid habits might be holding you back. A powerful mindset shift for navigating failures and setbacks. How storytelling can transform even ordinary experiences into extraordinary ones.
