Making Amends, Incels, Telling Kids About Infidelity, and Other Topics
About this episode
Dr. Kirk Honda explores the nature of evil, the concept of making amends, and discusses various mental health topics including incels and infidelity.
Are some people simply evil? Is "sorry" overused? Can an incel community ever be healthy? Dr. Kirk Honda explores those questions while also discussing family therapy education, addiction recovery, infidelity and children, Mobile Crisis Teams, and two troubling listener-submitted stories involving catfishing and youth mental health programming.
