A licensed psychotherapist and sex therapist, Nikita Fernandes was invited to speak at SXSW’s Lively Grit Daily House about the perils of burnout culture. We sat down with her after her presentation to talk about why people feel compelled to do uncool things, TikTok culture, ostriches, the Internet, and more.“To say that something is not cool that is generally seen as cool means that you&#39;re putting yourself at risk for social isolation. And social isolation and feeling isolated is not cool."Are you in New York?
