In today's episode I spoke with Nina Tallering (www.mindspringmentoring.com). Nina is a gifted coach and therapist living in the Pacific Northwest. We discuss how to "do down well" when going through hard times. Nina shares the teachings of the "three principles" with her client and points them back to their innate wellbeing and mental health "underneath the noise."

Nina has worked as a therapist in Portland, ME with children with autism, and on Oahu, Hawaii with children and their families. Her next career was as a Green Building Consultant, in which she worked with commercial building project teams to create more sustainable buildings. Her next career was as a full-time mom. She loved being at home with my kids, Eva (now 15) and Jacob (now 19). Nina volunteered in the schools, and supported all their activities and interests. Now, with Nina's kids in a new stage of life and needing her in different ways, she is returning to counseling and coaching. Nina has a strong desire to give back to the world and truly believes that if we can help people live in a better state of mind, this will have a ripple effect and help to create a better world for everyone.
