What happens when the man behind Atari’s most infamous video game becomes a therapist?
Howard Scott Warshaw joins us to talk burnout, chaos addiction, and how programming skills can actually make you a better communicator — and a better human.


In this episode of Mind Cake, we sit down with Howard Scott Warshaw, aka the Silicon Valley Therapist, to explore how a lifetime of high achievement, adrenaline addiction, and public failure became fuel for healing — his own and others’.

We talk about:

  • 🎮 How programming and therapy both rely on language, negotiation, and clarity

  • 🔥 The “firefighter complex” — thriving on chaos until it burns you out

  • 🧠 Why workaholics and high achievers struggle with emotional health

  • 🤝 Attachment theory, decision-making under ambiguity, and choosing partners for growth

  • 👾 The psychology of gaming, "Doers vs. Beers", and the danger of chasing high scores

If you’ve ever worked in a high-pressure environment or felt the weight of doing more, being more, or never stopping — this one’s for you.
