Happy 2025, listeners! Practical Psych is kicking off the new year with a fresh challenge for you. Forget those New Year’s resolutions you’ve probably already ditched—yes, I’ve abandoned one myself, and it’s only January 5th as of this recording. Instead, let’s focus on something bigger: a new way of living. This year, I’m challenging you to lean into discomfort—maybe even embrace it.

Joining me for this episode is a very special guest: my daughter, Natalie, a 16 year old high school sophomore. She’s here to share her wisdom on the power of stepping outside your comfort zone, something she has done many times and has lived to tell the tale.

Let’s jump in and make 2025 a year of bold, uncomfortable growth!
