The first interview I ever conducted taught me a lot. Mostly that interviewing people is unexpectedly difficult. And when you care about the topic and the person, quite emotionally draining. At the same time, it’s rewarding and joyful to discover someone’s story and be given the chance to retell it for others.
Sadly, life went in unexpected directions and I didn’t get the chance to do many more interviews. Maybe that will change this year. Maybe not. In any case, I’ll still have the memory of what was.

This piece is especially relevant to psychotherapists, social workers, and other mental health professionals, as it highlights how solitary reflection can narrow clinical reasoning. It shows how a conversational AI tool was used as a reflective aid for reviewing published case material and for consultations—not during active treatment or to guide decisions—illustrating a potential way to broaden perspectives while maintaining professional boundaries.
