I’ve been hinting at this episode for a while, and it’s finally here! Join us for an in-depth conversation about mental health (or the lack thereof) in the Harry Potter series. We explore the challenge of separating the art from the artist, especially in light of the author’s controversial views on equity. Our discussion covers how we suppress our "magic," battle imposter syndrome, navigate self-worth, and much more. These beloved books have been our favorites since childhood, and it was a joy to gather with friends to discuss them. We also connected with fellow Potter fans to hear their personal stories, the series' impact on their lives, and their insights on mental health. Enjoy the episode!
