Episode 126. Welcome to the first solo episode of an experiment I'm really excited about! I've done around 60 podcast interviews now (!!) and I LOVE it. So freaking much. I want them to last forever and I have so much to say, but also I learn so much during and after the interviews. So my new experiment, starting now is I will do a solo episode where I dive in to the topics that arose for me during the previous interview episode, where I can reflect on it, what I learned, and share more of my experiences related to the topic in a way that we didn't have time for (without a 2 hour episode)!. For today's episode, I expand on my talk with Megan Gunnell. To here the initial interview, go here. I am setting these episodes up so that you don't have to listen to the interview episode first, but you may want to go back to it after you listen to this episode. What to Expect In This Episode Topics and questions covered: Does psychotherapy training strip us our our creativity and self trust? Should we as therapists pursue other ways of making money outside of 1 on 1 therapy? How did I end up deciding to create a retreat for therapists? How am I feeling about it? My journey and process with creating a retreat for the fall of October 2024 What did I/we learn from talking to Megan Gunnell about her process with creating so many amazing offerings outside of traditional 1 to 1 therapy How has human design impacted me over the past few months? What is a Zone of Genius and how can it help us work smarter, not harder? And much more... To listen to my interview with Megan Gunnell, go here.
