About this episode
It’s the knot you can’t untangle — a problem so specific, it makes you feel alone.
But what if you could talk to someone who gets it?
On Proxy, we find someone with the closest possible experience to your problem — and follow the conversation that unfolds.
It’s not therapy. It’s emotional investigative journalism.
Hosted by Yowei Shaw, former co-host of Invisibilia.
