Severance S1E1 and sport psychology with Shaina Siber, LCSW

Today, I’m joined by Shaina Siber, LCSW, to discuss Apple TV+’s Severance (2022), Season One, Episode One: “The Good News About Hell.” Don’t be alarmed by the disembodied voices you’re hearing—that’s just Shaina and me chatting about our mutual admiration for Adam Scott!

In this episode, we explore:

The show’s unique premise and its hypothetical ethical implications for athletes and high achievers

Burnout and strategies for preventing it

The importance of integrating your “innie” and “outie” selves

And much more!

Take a listen—you’ll feel right as rain!
