Over here at The Squeeze—we talk about it—\"it\" being our mental health and well being. Host Taylor Lautner's (no, not that guy, but she is married to that guy) introduction to mental health was at a young age, witnessing friends and family suffer in ways she couldn't fully understand. She started a nursing career in the peak of the pandemic and has been struggling with her own mental health ever since. Tay is joined co-host, husband Taylor Lautner, in addition to celebrity and expert guests to further the conversation surrounding mental wellness. At the end of the day, we're all pretty similar; even those living in the lime-est of lights can be weighed down by sour lemons. In addition to sharing coping strategies and stories, we hope that above all, this podcast offers the comfort of knowing you are not alone.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-29T22:21:14.996237+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-squeeze-5966094"},"episode":{"title":"Joshua Bassett: Healing in the Public Eye","slug":"joshua-bassett-healing-in-the-public-eye","published_at":"2026-05-20T15:44:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-squeeze-5966094/joshua-bassett-healing-in-the-public-eye","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-squeeze-5966094","url":"https://mgln.ai/e/369/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/DM22A/claritaspod.com/measure/pdst.fm/e/rss.art19.com/episodes/255f2f79-0464-42db-8465-545236cec1e3.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://mgln.ai/e/369/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/DM22A/claritaspod.com/measure/pdst.fm/e/rss.art19.com/episodes/255f2f79-0464-42db-8465-545236cec1e3.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"In this week’s episode, Tay sits down with singer, actor, and author Joshua Bassett! Joshua opens up about first experiencing anxiety and depression at a young age, how overwhelming online hate and constant criticism affected him, and the ways he learned to cope during some of the hardest seasons of his life. He shares how being misunderstood publicly impacted his mental health, why social media can be so harmful, and how staying grounded in your own purpose can help make outside opinions feel less consuming. Joshua also talks through the boundaries he now has with social media, what motivates him to continue speaking openly about mental health, and why he believes it’s so important for men to have spaces where they can be emotional, vulnerable, and honest about what they’re going through. Joshua also opens up about some of the difficult topics he addresses in his book, including his experience with sexual abuse, addiction, trust issues in friendships, and the emotions that came with releasing something so vulnerable into the world. He shares where the idea for the book first came from, the topic he was most afraid to write about, and what he hopes readers take away after finishing it.
