QUIZ: Who Said It? A Therapist or a Disney Princess?

Disney princesses are known for their beauty, kindness, and questionable taste in men. But wisdom? Apparently yes.

At some point, I realized that therapists and Disney princesses say a lot of the same things. Believe in yourself. Follow your heart. Be brave. Feel your feelings. Don’t let other people define you. The main difference is that one of us has a master’s degree and the other has a talking crab.

So I decided to make a quiz.

Some of these quotes come from Disney princesses. Others come from therapists and famous psychologists. And a few are mine, because my Disney princess career never really took off.

Think you can tell the difference?

Good luck. There are no singing woodland creatures available to help you.

So, how did you do? If you correctly identified every therapist, psychologist, and Disney princess, congratulations. You have a very specific and completely useless superpower. If you bombed it, don’t feel bad. Apparently the line between solid therapeutic wisdom and something a Disney princess would say right before bursting into song is thinner than any of us realized.

QUIZ: Who Said It? A Therapist or Ted Lasso?

Therapists and Ted Lasso may have more in common than you’d think. Both have a knack for dropping surprisingly insightful one-liners about emotions, relationships, vulnerability, self-doubt, and what it means to be human.

But can you actually tell them apart?

Below are quotes from Ted Lasso mixed with quotes from therapists and psychologists. Some come from famous names in psychology. A few come from a considerably less famous therapist: me.

Some will be obvious. Others might make you wonder whether Ted missed his true calling.

Ready? Let’s see how well you know your therapy wisdom—and your Ted Lasso.

So, how did you do? If you couldn’t tell the therapists from Ted Lasso, I’m not sure what that says about therapists. Or Ted Lasso. Either way, hopefully you learned something, laughed at least once, and now have a few good quotes to pull out the next time someone needs unsolicited life advice. Share your score, and send the quiz to someone who thinks they can do better. Bonus points if they’re a therapist.
