Dr Sarah Rasmi on Relationships, Anxiety & Family Dynamics |Psychology| Luca's Insight Track Podcast

In this psychology-oriented episode of Luca's Insight Track podcast, Luca Allam interviews Dr Sarah Rasmi about relationships, anxiety, family dynamics, and mental health in modern life. This episode explores couples therapy, marriage counseling, infidelity recovery, cheating in relationships, and rebuilding trust after betrayal. Dr Sarah Rasmi, founder of Thrive Wellbeing Center, shares insights on Arab families, parenting in Arab culture, modern parenting, and emotional health. We also discuss anxiety causes, mental health awareness, and therapy in the Middle East. We dive into the psychology of infidelity and betrayal — why people cheat, whether relationships can truly recover, and why cheating is often an “escape” rather than an “exit.” Sarah shares what it takes to rebuild trust, when healing is possible, and when couples may need to accept that a chapter has ended. The conversation also examines family roles and cultural expectations. From “eldest daughter syndrome” and sibling dynamics to Arab versus Western parenting styles, Sarah unpacks how early experiences shape our emotional patterns, boundaries, and self-worth later in life. We also explore why so many people suffer in silence, how guilt quietly shapes the way parents and partners show up in their relationships, and why setting healthy boundaries often feels uncomfortable — even when it’s necessary. Sarah shares practical insight on how to prioritize yourself without neglecting your loved ones, how therapists manage unconscious bias in their work, and why emotional awareness and personal growth are essential for building lasting, meaningful connections. This episode is a rare blend of psychology, culture, and lived experience — a conversation about building stronger relationships on the outside while developing resilience and clarity on the inside. 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe to Luca’s Insight Track for more powerful conversations with exceptional thinkers, leaders, and change-makers.
