Episode 38: What If Healing Happened on a Stage? Exploring Psychodrama with Anna Bobikova
What if your biggest breakthrough didn’t come from sitting in a therapist’s chair—but from acting it out on a stage? In this eye-opening and refreshingly fun episode, Katie chats with Anna Bobikova to explore the transformative power of psychodrama—a therapeutic approach where roleplay becomes a tool for healing, insight, and connection.
Anna demystifies the concept of psychodrama (spoiler alert: it’s not as scary as it sounds) and walks us through how stepping into a role—even your future self—can help you shift patterns, resolve conflict, and deepen empathy.
Along the way, you’ll hear:
- Why roleplaying is more powerful (and more healing) than we give it credit for
- How watching yourself from the outside can lead to massive "aha" moments
- What your imagination has to do with emotional growth
- And yes… how a very real argument about making the bed turned into a breakthrough
You’ll also learn a simple, practical technique you can try at home to tap into your inner wisdom—even if the idea of roleplay makes your armpits sweat.
