Therapy Is Expensive So Here We Are
Being a teacher is basically group therapy… if group therapy included standardized testing, last-minute meetings, and kids who treat your profession like a suggestion. Therapy is Expensive, So Here We Are is the unfiltered, slightly sarcastic, but ultimately real podcast where we break down mental health, education, and parenting—without the hefty co-pay. Hosted Isaac J. Medina, this is your weekly dose of insight, humor, and just enough cynicism to keep you sane.
