But Why Does Everything Feel So Personal? | The Socioecological Model & The Systems Shaping Us

But Why Does Everything Feel So Personal? | The Socioecological Model & The Systems Shaping Us

Why do we blame ourselves for things that aren’t really our fault?

In this deeply human (and deeply caffeinated) episode, Kristin and Laura explore the socioecological model — a powerful psychological framework that explains how our personal struggles are shaped by the people, places, and politics around us. With stories about concussion panic, dog therapy, sport sexism, and burnout, we unpack:
• Why self-blame misses the point
• How your workplace, relationships, and culture interact
• The difference between purpose and meaning (and why that matters)
• How stereotypes and policies trickle down into everyday life
• Why women get asked to make the tea — and what that really says

This episode is part psych theory, part personal spiral, part feminist reframe. If you’ve ever felt broken, too sensitive, or just exhausted by “doing it all,” this one’s for you. Because maybe it’s not you. Maybe it’s the system.
