✨ Big Announcement! We are so proud to celebrate a true friend of the podcast, the brilliant Will Selman!
​Will has officially released his new book, "You Are A City," and it is an absolute game-changer for how we think about the spaces we inhabit. 🏙️✨
​We did a deep dive into the information, and this is NOT your average urban planning book. Will’s full title gives you a hint: "Alchemists, Flaneurs, and the Psychic Experience of Urbanism."
​What to expect:
Instead of just focusing on bricks and mortar, Will explores the soul of the city. He argues that our built environments are mirrors of our collective spiritual intentions. The streets and structures we walk every day are actually mirrors reflecting the inner complexity of our own individual souls.
​You will learn how to:
🧠 View your own personality aspects as "citizens" of your own private "interior city."
🧘‍♂️ Use the city as a setting for psychic exploration and spiritual growth.
🌀 Discover how ancient mythology, medieval alchemy, and Jungian psychology connect to modern urban placemaking.
​If you are a spiritual seeker, a fan of philosophy, or simply want to connect more deeply with the soul of your hometown, this book is a must-read.

​🎉 Join us in congratulating Will! Go grab your copy today.

Spring Has Sprung: Time to Spring Clean Your Brain 🌼
​Watching my daughter scatter dandelion seeds into the breeze today, I was reminded of the beautiful, relentless cycle of renewal. Every little seed she blows into the wind is a tiny promise of new growth.
​As nature wakes up and the earth gets a fresh start, it’s the perfect time to ask yourself: Are you ready to spring clean your brain?
​We spend so much time opening the windows and scrubbing the corners of our homes this time of year, but we often forget to clear the clutter from our own minds. If you are carrying the heavy residue of past seasons, now is the best time to start therapy. It's time to clear out the w**ds, plant new seeds for the new year, and give yourself the space to send up new flowers.
​There is a beautiful new start waiting for you.

​🌱 Somatic Experiencing: Release trapped tension and heal trauma by working directly with your body’s nervous system.
​🧠 Brainspotting: Access and process deep, unspoken emotional experiences exactly where they live in the brain.
​🕰️ Lifespan Integration: Gently heal past wounds and build a solid, cohesive, and grounded sense of self.
​📊 QEEG Brain Mapping: Get a clear, scientific picture of your brain's unique activity so we can create a highly personalized, targeted path to healing.
​You don't have to stay stuck in the winter of your mind. Let’s plant those new seeds together.

"We built institutions that were supposed to reflect reality. But the windows became mirrors." In the second century, the Gnostics believed our world was a false reality created by a confused lesser god known as the Demiurge. Today, we are trapped in a modern equivalent: a labyrinth of metrics, mode...

Most of our relationship "problems" aren't actually about the other person. They are about the parts of ourselves we haven't met yet.
​Join Dr. Kathy Avsar and Sahara Page for a free community group dedicated to Living an Examined Life. Inspired by the profound work of James Hollis, we are moving past surface-level small talk to do the real work of connection.
​What we’re practicing together:

​Projection Detection: Learning to see where you end and the other person begins.
​Shadow Work: Approaching the hidden parts of ourselves with curiosity, not shame.

​The Tension of Being: Learning the high-level skill of letting others be themselves without trying to "fix" or control them.

​Radical Self-Acceptance: Because you can only meet someone as deeply as you’ve met yourself.

​The Details
​📘 Text: We’ll be using Living an Examined Life by James Hollis (highly recommended to bring your own copy!).

🗓️ When: Mondays at 5:30 PM (Starting Feb 23)

community.

I’ve been watching The Pitt, the new Noah Wyle medical drama on HBO. The show clearly has excellent medical advisors making sure the procedures are accurate, the equipment is positioned correctly, and the jargon sounds right. But as a clinical social worker, I find myself laughing at scenes that aren’t meant to be funny, because the show reveals that its advisors understand social work and psychology exist, but not much more than that.

Let me give you the most efficient example. A 45-year-old patient explains that he was a high-functioning engineer until he “tried crystal m**h once and caught schizophrenia from the m**h.” That single line manages to insult both psychiatrists and people who use drugs simultaneously. That’s not how prodromal periods work. That’s not how amphetamine-induced psychosis works. That’s not how anything works. But someone wrote it, someone approved it, and millions of viewers absorbed it as medical fact.

Then there’s the 70-year-old woman who has never tried ma*****na before and eats nine w**d cookies. The doctors laugh about it and give her a warning because she’s just smiling and in a good mood. I need everyone to understand: if you ate nine w**d cookies with zero tolerance, you would not be smiling pleasantly. You would be in a dissociative crisis peeling the meat off your soul and wondering if time is real.
