Re-Air: Raven-Symoné & Miranda Pearman-Maday. Feel Better In Your Skin

In honor of Pride Month AND PTSD Awareness Month, we’re revisiting an awesome episode from 2022 with Raven-Symoné & her wife Miranda Pearman-Maday (content creator, producer, writer, doula). They joined us to discuss defense mechanisms, their individual therapy journeys, and the confining nature of labels when it comes to sexuality and gender. They explain how their sexualities protected their true identities and their struggles with depression. Raven opens up about her past relationships with people with narcissistic tendencies, her parents’ reservations about therapy, and her PTSD and anger challenges. She and Mayim bond over their strikingly similar coping mechanisms from having grown up as child actors, their abilities to read others, and how celebrity can heighten people-pleasing tendencies. Miranda reveals how somatic therapy has helped her, and Raven shares her positive experiences with shadow and energy work.
