If you feel that something’s missing from your life but have no idea exactly what’s missing or where to begin looking for it, today’s episode will help you reconnect with your power and find greater meaning in your life.

Dr. Thema Bryant (@themabryant) is the current president of the American Psychological Association. She trained at both Duke and Harvard, published multiple bestselling books, and has dedicated decades of her life to researching how we connect with each other by first connecting back to ourselves.

Dr. Thema is a national treasure. Her presence and her voice will put you at ease. And she has the unique gift of weaving together psychological strategies for healing with the deeper spiritual cornerstones of faith and trusting in "that which cannot be explained."

In this episode, we dive into:
6 signs that you are disconnected from yourself
what it means to be "psychologically wandering"
how to handle people in your life who are chronically irritable and angry
the surprising signs of "irritable depression"
the three words to say to yourself before you can begin healing
why selfcare is critical if you are in a toxic workplace (you are more than your labor)
why you need to stop talking about your significant other and your boss in therapy.
where to find therapy when you can’t afford it.

You are so much more than a highway for other people to get where they’re going. With Dr. Thema’s wisdom and tactics, you’ll reconnect with yourself and take the wheel on your own incredible journey in life.
