The Therapy Edit

• The Therapy Edit - Over and Out

  Today marks the final episode of The Therapy Edit (for now).What started as a passion project in lockdown—when I didn’t even realise my microphone was backwards!—became one of the most loved and fulfilling parts of my work. I could never have dreamt it would grow into over 350 episodes, with over 4 million downloads, offering comfort, insight, and solidarity in the highs and lows of life.Your kind words of feedback have been fuel to my recording sessions.Now, it’s time to press pause. I’m putting the podcast on ice for now—This decision wasn’t easy, but it feels right. Life moves in seasons, and right now, I’m making space for more corporate work and deeper focus on my clinical therapy work.To every listener, every guest, every person who has shared an episode or sent a message—thank you. You’ve made this journey so special, and I’m endlessly grateful.A huge thank you to my AMAZING producer Kate at @contentinthecotswolds for being the machine behind the podcast, John at Aloe Audio for your patient and brilliant editing, Tom @bevjamesmanagement for lining me up with sponsors, Global for hosting me so warmly, and the talented Amber of @oohlala for all the branding over the years.I’ll always be passionate about sharing thoughts and conversations that help us navigate the messy, beautiful reality of life.And allll the episodes are there for you to listen whenever you need to. A library of supportive words. So, watch this space. Anna x
