About this episode

The episode discusses the host's reflections on a therapy session and introduces a new series called The Correction.

"This is a special series I'm running called The Correction. It lives separately from TMAO but I wanted to bring it here first. Here's Episode 01." The one that started everything. A few weeks ago I sat in a therapy session and two words came up — hyper competent. My therapist said it like a diagnosis. My first instinct was to take it as a compliment. And then she finished the sentence. This is Episode 01 of The Correction. I read the first entry in the series and talk around it — what was happening when I wrote it, what I didn't write, and where this thread is going. No guests. No agenda. Just honest. The Correction drops every Monday and Thursday. Read the full series at conradgray.com
