Transcript
Full transcript, edited for readability. Every timestamp jumps the video to that moment.
Todd Roache: I would say not just mental health for everyday people, but just space. Reflective space, transformational space, space to navigate, space to think, space to think where the hell am I in my life. Which was kind of where I was at. A different quality of space. A space with a different label on the door, although, as we've talked about, my ability to hold a lot of space for shadow and themes of suicide and so on, without dipping into therapy. Todd Roache: I noticed with a lot of coaches, when I was training coaches, that if somebody mentioned therapy, even just therapy, they'd be like, oh my God. Todd Roache: Danger, danger, danger. And they would tense up, and obviously the other person in the room can feel that. And then it just wobbles the boat of the space, I think.
