Gender Identity Weekly

In this episode, I host Dr. Lino Martinez!  Dr. Lino is an author, podcaster, and Professor of Psychology who views his ability to survive not as extraordinary, only human.  Lino and I discuss existential psychology, depleting ourselves to please others, and The Meaning to Life.
