JCIP #129 - Default Friend

In episode 129 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked in with Katherine aka Default Friend. Katherine has a Substack called Default Wisdom where she writes about sex and dating, internet history and has an advice column for people who need their burning dilemmas answered. She is also the host of the ‘The Computer Room’ podcast. In this episode we discuss how she came to adopt the name Default Friend, where she believes women are going wrong in dating and what impact those choices have on their mental health, hook-up culture and why the concept of shame isn’t always a bad thing. We also discuss Katherine’s experience of anxiety, specifically severe social anxiety and health anxiety. As always, #itsokaytovent You can read and subscribe to Default Wisdom here: https://defaultfriend.substack.com/ You can follow Katherine on social media below: Twitter: https://twitter.com/default_friend Support Us: Patreon: www.patreon.com/venthelpuk GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com/f/help-vent-supp…ir-mental-health Music: @patawawa - Strange: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d70wfeJSEvk
