Manage episode 448894884 series 3577148
Formally known as “cherophobia”, this lesser-known phobia (the fear of happiness) tends to coincide with OCD and depression; and these accompanying symptoms are no stranger to accomplished Canadian-American basketball player and comedian, Henry Sir. On this week’s episode, Henry beautifully opens up about his “fear of happiness”, his challenges with mental health, and grief from the recent passing his brother, Ben. Henry dives headfirst in the deep-end of a vulnerability pool, and Drew and Alex feel honored to sit by him and listen to his story.
