Is it pleasurable or work? We'll answer these and more today!

56 - Things I've Learned from D&D

Let's talk about Dungeons & Dragons and what I've learned from these adventures. I haven't been shy about my love of D&D and here are only some of the reasons why I enjoy it and other table-top role playing games so much. My original plan was to do ten of these, but I only covered half of them in this episode!

53 - Boredom

Let's talk about a very common topic I run into with the people I work with. What do we do when we're bored? What is boredom? When we're talking about boredom, we're talking about stress. Our brains need stimulation to thrive and if we lack it, we are more likely to rely on coping mechanisms to give us some sort of stimulation. In this episode, I share some of what I've offered to clients from my own work.

52 - Make Today Better

Let's talk about how we can make to day better. One of the main issues I've been working through in making my days better have been my own expectations of what the day is supposed to be like. There is also the concept by James Clear of improving yourself by 1% than yesterday. If you do this enough, you will be 365% better after a year. Is this true?

51 - Masking

Let's talk about masking. I'm not an expert by any means on this topic, however it is something that I possibly do myself and I've seen in my partner and others in my close circle. In fact, anyone who has some level of neurodivergence likely masks. What is masking? Why do people do it? Let's take a look at this exhausting behavior that helps people blend in.

Let's explore this hero and what makes him heroic.

49 - Money

Let's talk about one of the challenging topics for people in our modern age. Money is one of those necessary evils today and we have seen how it's influence can bring in incredible philanthropy or corruption. It's one of the three topics that can make or break a romantic relationship, though that was fourteen years ago and maybe there are more topics today that have been added to that list. Regardless, money is something that the majority of people need to live, so how can we have a healthy relationship with it?

48 - You'll Never Please Everyone

Let's talk about pleasing others. Tell me if you've heard this one before: you'll never please everyone. If that sounds familiar, then it makes me wonder why there are so many people I talk with who are so focused on making sure everyone else is happy and pleased. In reality, there is only one person who you can please: yourself! But why is having others happy with us so important? Because we don't want to be socially ostracized from our community and family. We are social animals after all.
