Positive Intent w. Andrew Morton

Written By Deana Bianco

In this episode of So, What Brings You to Therapy, Deana dives into her unexpected obsession with scoring Backstreet Boys tickets at the Sphere in Vegas—and what it reveals about chasing joy in a chaotic world. She’s then joined by her partner of 14 years, Andrew Morton, a tech company manager, for a thoughtful conversation on the overlap between management and therapy: active listening, emotional regulation, and leading with positive intent. The two also unpack a viral story about a CEO caught at a Coldplay concert, reflecting on why certain narratives hook us.
