Fans of The Read podcast have followed co-host Crissle’s journey as she went back to school in the hopes of becoming a therapist. Well, she’s graduated y’all, so of course it was only right to have her join us to talk a little bit about her journey and what advice she has for other aspiring therapists.

In case you’re unfamiliar with Crissle, she is half of the critically acclaimed comedy podcast The Read and her work has been featured in the Washington Post, ESSENCE, Slate, Buzzfeed, and several other media outlets. She considers meeting Beyoncé to be one of the most thrilling events of her life. During our conversation, we discuss the challenges of navigating grad school as a public figure, how to take care of yourself when working with clients triggers old wounds, and what Crissle hopes to do with her degree now that she’s graduated.
