Parental Guilt, Digital Wellness, and Why AI Falls Short with Israa Nasir (November 2025)

Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description

In this episode of Love-ly, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Mehak⁠⁠⁠⁠ sits down with psychotherapist and @well.guide founder Israa Nasir to discuss life as a third-culture kid and why she doesn’t feel guilty about not having children, despite parental expectations.

Their conversation also turns to the future of digital mental health care, inspired by Israa’s essay, “Outsourcing Emotional Labor to ChatGPT,” and to how we should be using AI in therapy (hint: definitely not your Hinge replies).
