Today's episode is brought to you by Alma. May is mental health awareness month, and I've been thinking a lot about how much therapy has helped me over the years. Not just showing up, but finding the right therapist. And honestly, that part used to feel overwhelming. I didn't always know where to look, how to find someone who took my insurance, or if they'd actually be the right fit. That's why I really like what Alma is doing. They built a network of over 26,000 therapists nationwide, and you can browse their directory without even making an account. You can filter for things like insurance, background, and approach, so you're not just guessing. Plus, 98% of their therapists accept insurance, and clients with insurance pay $20 on average. There's even a free cost estimator so you know what you'll pay upfront. Most people find their match on the first try, and 95% connect within a week. Over 80% feel better within six months, which says a lot. Get started now at helloalma.com/moth. That's helloalma.com/moth.
