What does it really feel like to be a new therapist? In this honest, funny, and deeply human conversation, Sarah and Liam reflect on the messy, meaningful early days of becoming clinicians—from imposter syndrome to unexpected moments of connection. Whether you're in the field or just therapy-curious, this episode offers a rare peek behind the scenes.
I used to think my inability to focus meant I was lazy or broken. Turns out, I just needed to stop forcing myself to work in ways that weren’t built for my brain. In this post, I share the focus strategies that actually feel good—no shame, no self-betrayal, just neurodivergent rhythms honored.
Gender-affirming care saves lives. Despite mounting evidence and countless lived experiences, recent laws and court rulings are stripping trans people of essential health care. These attacks aren’t just political—they’re personal, life-threatening, and urgent to resist.
“Improv masks it, makes it fun. Like, oh, yeah, I'm just playing this silly game. But then when we sit and we start to debrief what that game brought up for us, we see that it brought up a lot more than just funny space aliens.”
Shannon Stott’s approach to improv isn’t just about laughter—it’s about listening to your body, accessing your truth, and practicing how you want to move through the world. In this conversation, Logan Kim and Shannon dive deep into how playful, low-stakes games can help us explore identity, make intentional choices, and connect more fully with ourselves and others.
“Most of the moments that we have are actually low stakes,” Shannon reflects. “And improv helps us remember that it’s possible to be right here—in this moment—making one choice at a time.”
For years, I carried anxiety without knowing what to call it—just a constant hum in the background. Hiking changed that. Time outdoors offered me something other grounding practices hadn’t: a calm, clear presence in my body and mind. In this post, I explore how nature became a transformative part of my healing journey, how it deepened my sense of self-trust, and how embodiment plays a key role in therapy for anxiety and disconnection.
You are not in this alone. You were never meant to be. Each and every one of us innately possesses strengths to live more enriching, joyful lives; let us help you to (re)connect to your strengths to find well-being.
As a musician, I once feared therapy would dull the spark behind my creativity. Instead, it’s helped me turn chaos into clarity, boosting my confidence, deepening my lyrics, and strengthening my well-being. Now, I create from a grounded place—still raw and real, but no longer at the mercy of emotional overload.
