Chrissy opens today’s episode with a meditation on secrecy, then shares the definition of the word SECRET, and invites us to consider the question: how can the power of secrecy shape our interactions with others?
Laura Hall also joins the conversation to discuss her book Affliction: Growing Up with a Closeted Gay Dad. Together, Chrissy and Laura discuss the difference between secrets and lies, how other peoples’ secrets can impact us, and the connecting power of telling the truth.
Then Chrissy shares this week’s book recommendation, The Secret Life of Secrets: How Our Inner Worlds Shape Well-Being, Relationships, and Who We Are by Michael Slepian.
