Why is everything labelled as "either/or"? Why not "and"? This podcast seeks to explore various facets of human behavior, experience, and psychology through the lens of "and" rather than that of "or". Your host, a licensed professional counselor, will have discussions with the average everyday person - and maybe a few celebrities - as we explore psychology's impact on topics like professions, values, compassion, trauma, drugs and music.

    and... COVID-19: One Year Later

    As we look back one year later on the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, one can't help but notice the profound differences in the way life is lived.  One has had to alter almost everything about the way they work, go to school or even go out in public as a result!  

    Today, we take that time machine journey backwards and explore with my guests Christopher Langford, R. Wolf Shipon, and Tiana Latel.  Each of us has a different perspective on the pandemic and its implications. I invite you to join us as we explore what it meant to us in the hopes that you reflect on your own experiences as well. We touch on a lot of profound topics that interlace throughout many of recent history's events!

    This week, I'm changing the format a bit.  In this episode, we "flip the mic".  I let my previous guests ask ME the questions!  

    Join me as previous guests of the podcast take the time to ask what's on their mind.  It sometimes gets personal, and you get to hear some stories about how this journey started out.
