    Psychedelic therapy has proven to be one of the biggest breakthrough treatments in the mental health industry, especially for individuals with treatment-resistant conditions.

Listen in as we discuss the current status of psychedelic therapy including Ketamine, MDMA & Psilocybin, and why now is a great time to get trained as a psychedelic-assisted therapy provider and understand the business of psychedelic therapy.

    Values Define Your Destiny (Part 3): Creating the Life You Desire – Keith Kurlander

    Self-determination is a concept in psychology that refers to having a significant influence over your life, such as the direction and fulfillment of your career, relationships, finances, and the impact you have on the world. Although levels of self-determination vary greatly between individuals and their unique circumstances, there are a handful of things you can do in order to increase the likelihood of life going in the direction that you want. 
    In the first two episodes of this series, Keith talked about how to release values that aren’t your own and discover values that are true to who you are. In the final episode, Keith will share several steps you can take to live in accordance with your values and manifest the life you desire.

    Many of us understand the importance of living a values-based life. However, most people don’t feel fully aligned in their career and consider it a sacrifice.

He’ll share his own story of entering the workforce feeling incongruent, and a unique exercise that you can use to release values that aren’t your own. Ultimately, many people want to feel that they can be themselves serving in a career where they see they have something meaningful to contribute.
