Guided meditation/guided imagery is a powerful therapeutic technique that has been used across cultures for thousands of years. I will walk you through a powerful guided meditation that takes a few minutes and offers peace and calmness for the heart and mind. It is perfect for a busy person or beginner to guided meditation. This is also great for the self-critic who needs to decompress. If you enjoyed this guided meditation, please let me know. Enjoy!

Violence as a response to differing ideas is not what helps our society progress. For people who experience hatred for others with opposing views, you must first befriend people with other views, go to the gym, eat good/clean food, and try a martial art. Become so grossly knowledgeable that you can confidently engage in a debate OR so secure in your belief that you do not hate others who are different. The loss of Charlie Kirk is a national tragedy that will be felt for decades.

Entrepreneurs are creative individuals who bring innovation to the world. Setting goals is essential, especially when you don't have a clear blueprint for what the outcome is supposed to look like. Today, I will discuss how to set goals so you have SPACE for innovation.

In this episode, you will hear an example of how I might approach an ASD client in therapy versus what it might look like for a neurotypical.

This episode was inspired by Elizabeth Gilbert's book, Big Magic. I love creative pursuits; it is one of the very things that makes me feel alive. We are creating at every turn, but to truly capture creativity, we must be ready. This episode, albeit brief, discusses the creative process and offers you a nudge to go out and be creative.

Adults who are newly diagnosed with ASD often enter therapy with questions about their identity. I am privileged to be able to work alongside them to choose the building blocks of their identity. This episode discusses using philosophy as a framework to build on their identity.
