New episodes every Wednesday.

Living out loud. Making meaning in real time.

Hosted by Counseling Psychology PhD student Michelle Meital Sanabria, this show explores what it means to live a deeply felt, well-examined life — through joy, sorrow, illness, wonder, and the small luminous moments of everyday life.

“The other side of misery isn’t happiness — it’s meaning. It’s learning to live alongside our suffering, and still reach for wonder.”

— The Other Side of Misery

Note: This podcast is not therapy, self-help, or prescriptive advice. It’s educational and reflective — a living conversation, not a doctrine.
