9: From burn-out to dating as a doting dog-parent — An extended quick-fire round with Owen O’Kane
Owen O’Kane is a best-selling author and a qualified psychotherapist. His advice is hailed by the likes of Benedict Cumberbatch, Dame Kelly Holmes, and Fearne Cotton, so Anna is keen to make the most of having him in the studio and mine him for as much advice as possible.
In order to take full advantage of Owen’s expertise, this episode runs a little differently than usual. Anna puts several listener dilemmas to Owen — ranging from bringing a partner home after coming out as gay, dating as a dog parent, burn-out, and grieving the breakdown of a friendship. Owen’s advice is as broad-in-topic as it is fascinating. There really is something for everyone in this episode!
You can find out more about Owen and his brilliant work by visiting his website, and you can buy his three books — How To Be Your Own Therapist, Ten Times Happier, and Zen to Ten — at all good booksellers.
…
Have questions about sex? Divorce? Motherhood? Menopause? Mental health? With no topic off limits, Anna’s here to prove that whatever you’re going through, it’s not just you.
