Why the Podcast?

“Why” questions are inquiries that seek the reason or explanation behind a particular phenomenon. These questions necessitate more than mere recollection; they often prompt critical thinking and inference. The objective of this podcast is to facilitate meaningful conversations, particularly those centered around mental health and social norms. Our aim is to gain a deeper understanding of the significance of certain socially acceptable or unacceptable behaviors. While we do not intend to provide definitive answers to these questions, we strive to offer insights into the potential reasons behind their existence and the motivations behind our own actions.

This podcast is hosted by Sean Barriteau, who has been undergoing personal therapy for nearly three years. This podcast is not Sean’s therapy. Each episode will feature mental health specialists from around the world joining Sean to discuss the underlying reasons for mental health and social norms.

In this podcast’s first episode, I explain the purpose of the Why podcasts, introduce myself as the host, and share my reasons for starting the podcast and my hopes for its success.
