Interfering Neurotic
Join an aussie psychologist and a midwest mindfulness coach as they navigate a life lived with the curses and blessings of big feelings. Together Dr Ash King and Daron Larson explore the neurotic lived experience, including why we think, feel and act the ways we do (sometimes against our better judgement) and the deranged pursuits we embark upon to find ourselves, fix ourselves and keep fooling ourselves.

Welcome to our first ep of Interfering Neurotic with Dr Ash King, and Daron Larson - where we navigate a life lived with the curses and blessings of big feelings. Together, we explore why we think, feel and act the ways we do (sometimes against our better judgement) and the deranged pursuits we embark upon to find ourselves, fix ourselves and keep fooling ourselves.
In Episode 1, we tackle:
What to do when break ups leave us devolved to wet slimy slug-form
Recommendations for meditations and movies
What it means to be neurotic and the first moments in our lives we thought we might be
The nature of endurance and resilience in a world full of unknowns.
