PUT YOURSELF ON THE STAND: Epic Conversation with Frank Henderson

What if the story you believe about yourself isn’t a fact—just a verdict you never challenged?
In this conversation, I talk about what it really means to reconcile with yourself by putting your beliefs in court and examining the evidence. Feelings can testify, but they don’t get the final say.

🎥 Watch the full conversation with Frank Henderson and ask yourself the hard, healing questions.

NO SECRETS IN COMMUNICATION: "There's no secret in your soul that your behavior doesn't display." You show what matters to you. You might say that X is important but your behavior might say different. You behave like you are uninterested, disconnected, and about Y but tell people the opposite.

How are you communicating? What are you saying?

HEALING THROUGH DIALOGUE: CLIP WITH FRANK HENDERSON

One of the most important relationships I could have ever healed was the one with my Dad. It happened when I allowed my vulnerability to be seen by him. No guardedness. No blame. No pointing out faults. Just a space to speak, listen and be heard.

It took me until I was in my 30s to have the conversation with him, heal us both, and learn that dialogue between two willing people can be a powerful tool in healing.

Debunking the Myth of Neutrality in Therapy.

We are taught to be neutral in sessions. Neutrality can be harmful as systems impact clients. Those things cannot be avoided. Avoiding can bring harm to clients.

NeoSession Throwback: This morning, I received a comment about needing to meditate or chat in the wake of all of the events going on in the world and life. I'm going in the archives for this and invite you to take some time. If you’ve ever said, “I can’t meditate — my mind won’t stop,” this one’s for you.

Let’s slow down, clear up a few common myths about meditation, and then try a short, guided moment together. You don’t need experience — just a willingness to pause.

This is a NeoSession Throwback. Come as you are.

NeoSession Interrupted: Social Change and Mental Health A Call for Dialogue

With the death of Renee Nicole Goodman as the backdrop, I interrupted a scheduled NeoSession release to discuss the impact of traumatic events on individuals and society, to emphasize the importance of viewing these incidents through multiple lenses, including climate, culture, and mental health.

In a world where traumatic events frequently shape our society, understanding the psychological impact of such incidents is crucial. As an organizational psychologist and licensed professional counselor, I wanted to shed light on how these experiences affect individuals' perceptions of themselves, others, and society as a whole. I emphasize the need for dialogue and social change to address the effects of trauma and promote dignity and welfare for all and these issues effectively.

WRITE IT WEDNESDAY: We often mistake independence for emotional maturity. But living with others teaches things solitude never can.

I just published a new piece on what shared living reveals about our habits, boundaries, empathy, and capacity for repair, and why these are strengths, not shortcomings.

👉 Read it at the link below.

Question: What did/has living with others taught you about yourself?

Yesterday, I interviewed Carli Moncher for my upcoming book + podcast What’s In Your Hand? and WOW — her story reminded me that nothing we walk through is wasted.

Carli shared how she’s learning to use her gifts not just for others — but as offerings to herself… choosing joy, choosing rest, choosing HER. That’s the glow-up.

If YOU have a story about resilience, reinvention, or rediscovering your gifts… I’m interviewing contributors now.

What if anxiety isn’t your enemy—but an overworked protector?

It shows up with warnings, lessons, and stories from the past… but sometimes it forgets you’re safe now.

Take a moment today to pause, breathe, and listen. You may find that healing begins the moment you stop fighting anxiety—and start having a conversation with it.
