Ever feel like you’re trying to build your life with a cryptic, wordless instruction manual and a pile of leftover screws? You’re not alone. Most of us are handed the most complex machine in the universe—our own mind—with no guide on how it works. We end up like a wobbly bookshelf, mostly functional but leaning precariously and terrified it could all come crashing down.

Welcome to the first episode of The Journey Within. Psychologist and storyteller Dr. Sam Carter kicks off our series by handing you the toolbox and the blueprint you never received. This isn't about finding out what's "wrong" with you; it's about finally learning how your unique, one-of-a-kind engine actually works.

Forget dense textbooks and academic jargon. This is Psychology for Everyone—a practical guide to moving from being a nervous passenger in your own life to getting into the driver’s seat.
