Two months before her wedding, Dr. Phoebe Rogers, a clinical psychologist and couples therapist and she was having secret panic attacks.

Every time she pictured herself saying “I do,” she imagined herself bolting from the altar instead. She almost went through with it anyway, because sometimes the voice whispering “at least someone loves you” can drown out the one shouting “this isn’t right.”

In this raw, vulnerable, and inspiring conversation, Dr. Rogers opens up about her journey from relationship expert to runaway bride and how that moment of truth became the catalyst for real healing and self-discovery.
