One of the things SEEK Safely has always said about self-help is that it is not a separate culture--it IS very much a part of mainstream culture. It is, then, unsurprising when it gets wrapped up in news stories of the day, such as the Epstein Files (if you hadn't heard, a prominent "Old Guard" self-help guy makes a disturbing appearance in the Files, as does a newer wellness guru). Glenn and Jean discuss the long standing relationship between self-help and celebrity--how self-help figures have courted celebrities and political figures for clout and legitimacy, and how celebrities and other public figures have used self-help guru to show their... philosophical? spiritual? deep? side. Notes: To Watch: Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich Netflix DocuseriesTo Read: Peter Atia, the Epstein Files, and the Lie Propping Up Big Wellness by Jessica Grose for The New York TimesMelania Had Herself a Movie Night! by Danielle Han for Yahoo NewsHow Celebrity Life Coach Tony Robbins Started Working with Bill Clinton by Richard Feloni for Business InsiderTragedy in Sedona by Connie JoyLearn more about SEEK Safely on our websiteFollow SEEK on Instagram, Twitter, and FacebookFollow Dr. Glenn on Instagram, Twitter, and FacebookRead the memoir “This Sweet Life: how we lived after Kirby died” by Jean and her mom, Ginny BrownTo Contact SEEK email [email protected]
