Show notes

John Cuturilo is the host of the Your Listener Podcast and the founder of Your Listener Counseling in Melbourne, Australia, where he works as a counselor focused on mental health, critical thinking, and human behavior. 

I sit down with John to talk about mental illness, therapy, and how personal experience shapes the way we understand the mind. We explore what works and what fails in traditional mental health systems, the limits of academic psychology, and why listening is one of the most powerful tools in counseling.

We also dive into free speech, social psychology, cancel culture, and the importance of having honest conversations without judgment. This episode is a thoughtful discussion on mental health, philosophy, and learning how to think more clearly in today’s world.
