In this episode, I sit down with one of my favorite creatives and former higher ed. colleague; the always inspirational Laila Alchaar. We break down what it takes to make big, bold leaps of faith, particularly when the path ahead is unclear and/or filled with obstacles. 

 

In this episode, we discuss: 

  • Gaining the confidence to make bold moves in your life.
  • What it looks like to pivot from an established path and take risks. 
  • How your resume can inform any type of work you choose to do in the world, even when it might feel unrelated.
  • Overcoming the perfectionist inside that tries to keep us small.
  • How to grow in new spaces when you’re starting over.

Intentionally Disturbing

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
