    When Life Doesn’t Go as Planned: Learning to Give Yourself Grace

    Not every day goes according to plan—and sometimes the moments we look forward to the most don’t happen the way we imagined. In today’s solo episode of Beyond the Mind, I open up about dealing with unexpected disappointment and the emotions that come with missed opportunities. Instead of letting one setback define the day, I explore how we can process frustration, show ourselves grace, and keep moving forward with hope. If you’ve ever felt discouraged because things didn’t go your way, this episode is a reminder that one difficult moment doesn’t determine your future. Growth often begins when we choose to keep going despite disappointment. Join me as we talk about resilience, self-compassion, and why every setback can become the beginning of a new chapter. If this episode resonates with you, don’t forget to follow, rate, and share Beyond the Mind. Your support helps these conversations reach more people who may need them today.

    The boys we Raise becomes the Men we know : Dr.Gloria Vanderhorst

In this episode of Beyond the Mind, I sit down with Dr. Gloria Vanderhorst, psychologist, author, and therapist with nearly 50 years of experience helping children, adults, and families heal from emotional wounds. Together, we explore how the messages boys receive from childhood shape the men they become—and why emotional suppression can have lasting effects on relationships, mental health, and society as a whole. Dr. Gloria shares powerful insights into emotional development, fatherhood, vulnerability, and how we can raise boys who grow into emotionally healthy, compassionate men.
