Today on the show we're talking about making adjustments. The adjustments I'm making to this show, my life and business in 2019 but also the little tweaks we can make every day to get a better sense of how we're using our time and energy. Are they serving a purpose? Are we stuck in a grind? Are we unhappy with certain aspects of life or business? How can we adjust to new needs? I talk about that in terms of my life today on DOPEamine!

Stan Lee was one of the greatest storytellers of our time and easily one of the greatest men who ever lived. He never held back from being himself and sharing that with the world. He brought his personality into everything and so eloquently married the real with the fantastical. We all have been affected by him and how he shaped reality in the last century. This episode is for him. Thank you, Stan, for everything. Excelsior!

Today on the show we're talking about connecting with others through your vulnerability whether that's personally or professionally. We can feel quite isolated when we're dealing with mental health challenges and don't know how to connect with people. Small talk takes too much energy and sometimes we don't want to talk about ourselves too much. Finding a way to empathize or connect with others is a beautiful way of both sharing your story and creating a new wonderful connection with someone who can support you, listen to you and respect your journey. Let's hug it out on today's episode of DOPEamine!

Today on the show we're talking all about unlearning perception. What does that mean? That means, that over time we've accumulate all sorts of ideas about what the ideal human should be in a given situation. If you've dealt with any mental health difficulties or disabilities then you'll be familiar with this feeling. I talk with Brian King all about unlearning these perceptions from others that we put into our minds that keep us from the making the proper adjustments we need to make in order to grow as a person and build the life we want to live. Join us on this episode of DOPEamine!

Today on the show we're talking all about Small Talk and the power of the skill in relation to social exploration and your mental health. We all seek some sense of connection and in order to get a more meaningful connection we need to use some semblance of small talk as a means to figure people out a bit before we approve or dismiss of someone. There are skills that you can learn to improve the skill over the time, which I feel are imperative for individual growth.

Today on the show I'm addressing a statement that I hear quite often from artists and designers, "I'm Not Interesting..." It is quite frustrating to see as I continue through my own development because it's something that I feel I've got a good handle on these days. I know the pain and difficulty of comparison, of being stuck in your head and not feeling like you have something to offer but we absolutely all do. We get beat down by life or compare ourselves to those who had a better starting line. At the end of the day we need to trust what we know and love about ourselves, to put it out there and gain insight from what we share but not take that feedback as something we HAVE to apply. This is our life, we can take control of it.

Today on the show we're talking all about community and abundance. Abundance being the concept of there being enough clientele to go around and to wall ourselves off from other creatives is to isolate ourselves when we need support. There are times when we need the support of other creatives to fulfill the needs of our clients while we take of ourselves and building community is the best way to do that. We talk about the concept entitlement as well and how expecting too much of yourself also leads to burnout and mistreatment of ourselves.

Today on the show we're talking all about boundaries for asking and giving advice. Many young people are looking for mentors to help them through life and it's a challenge to find someone who has the time, cares or can even answer their questions. That can lead to desperation or eagerness on the part of the one seeking advice. It's important to have patience and realize that you've got time to figure things out. The same goes for the mentor, protecting your time is key but not so much that you can't help people with a quick response. There's no need for paywalls on helping each other whenever possible.

Today on the show we're talking all about health and fame. Two separate topics that all equate to a healthy perspective on you as the most important part of your life. Being health is about you and becoming famous is not what it used to be. You have all of the possibilities in the world to show off your potential more than ever before and no longer do you need to appeal to the mass market to be famous. But to be famous to someone still yields its rewards, whether it's a listener, a client or a friend. Perception is everything.

Today on the show we're talking about making space for your partner, family, business partners and all others in your life. One of my goals of this show and in life is to find the most effective ways to meet people where they are instead of trying to adapt people to who I am or what I want them to be. It's a very difficult ongoing challenge, especially with the mental illness issues that I face. I know plenty of you can relate to this struggle so this could be the episode that opens you up to this idea. Join me and leave a little love if this resonates with you!
