Proxy with Yowei Shaw

It’s the knot you can’t untangle - the problem so unique, it makes you feel alone. But what if someone is out there who gets it? On Proxy, we find that person. The perfect stranger to offer the insight to demystify the feelings that shape us all. Yowei Shaw (formerly of NPR’s Invisibilia) and her team of emotional investigators, at your service.
