What if the career you trained for didn't have to feel like a countdown to retirement? Today's guest turned professional dissatisfaction and a family health scare into the motivation she needed to build a private practice that truly serves her life, not the other way around. I'm so excited to share her story with you!I'm introducing you to Bianca Gizzi Fusco, a certified Speech-Language Pathologist and the founder of BG Speech Therapy, a private practice serving families in Woburn, Massachusetts.Bianca's path to speech-language pathology wasn't a straight line. She actually started out wanting to be a teacher but quickly realized she didn't enjoy the large groups and the rigid, over-planned structure of the classroom. While working as a paraprofessional in a preschool during graduate school where she was studying to become a reading specialist she discovered something she'd never even heard of before: speech therapy. It piqued her interest immediately, seeming to combine so many of her passions. So she took the necessary prerequisite classes, applied to grad school for speech, and never looked back.After earning her degree, Bianca started working in a middle school, the very one she attended as a child. She liked it at first, but she never loved it. And as the years went on, she became increasingly unhappy. She started questioning whether she was even good at her job, and whether she had chosen the right profession at all.One thing she noticed in the public schools haunted her: the constant question from colleagues, "How many years do you have left?" always referring to retirement. That question, she says, was deeply depressing. She knew she didn't want the best part of her career to be the end of it.Then came the turning point. During COVID, Bianca's father was hospitalized for a month and nearly didn't make it. She took time off work to help her mom run their family business while her dad was ill. That year, watching her family navigate a crisis, she had a reckoning: Life is too precious to have my career be a countdown to the end of it. With the support of her husband and parents who encouraged her with "Just take the course, what's the worst that can happen?" She signed up for the Start Your Private Practice course and never looked back.Today, Bianca runs a thriving clinic with a physical location specializing in working with young children, focusing on speech sound disorders, Gestalt language processors, early language development, and stuttering, a manageable caseload, and a schedule that prioritizes time with her two young sons. She sees clients back-to-back on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays and Saturday mornings. She's at capacity not because she has to be, but because she chooses to be. And right now, that feels exactly right.Bianca's story is proof that private practice doesn't have to look like a big, multi-disciplinary clinic with a long waitlist and a full staff unless that's what you want. For her, success looks like flexibility, balance, and the ability to say "not right now" to hiring, while still building a profitable and fulfilling practice.In Today's Episode, We Discuss:How to start small and use a stepwise approach to build your caseload without quitting your day jobWhy your idea of "success" in private practice can and should change with the seasons of your lifeHow to use a cancellation list to fill your schedule without needing to hire staffBianca is living proof that you don't have to be a Type-A and don't have to be a brick and mortar owner to succeed in private practice. She calls herself a Type B+ SLP somewhere in between and that's exactly what works for her. Her favorite part of private practice? It swings with where she is in life. And that's something no pension can buy.Her story does not have to be the exception. You, too, can build the private practice of your dreams, whether that means a full clinic, a part-time side business, or something in between.If you're ready to stop waiting and start building a practice that's truly aligned with your goals, Private Practice School is here to help. We start with a Personalized Private Practice Plan and then give you the tools, such as the Life First calendar and our Numbers Made Simple Calculators, and me in your corner every week, whether you're opening the doors or growing what you've already built.Please visit www.PrivatePracticeSchool.com to learn more, and follow me on Instagram @independentclinician for more tips, inspiration, and resources to support your private practice journey.Resources Mentioned:Follow Bianca onInstagram: instagram.com/bgspeechtherapy/ Facebook: BG Speech Therapy LLCCheck out her website: www.bgspeechtherapy.comWhere We Can Connect:Follow the Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/private-practice-success-stories/id1374716199Follow Me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/independentclinician/Follow Me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jena.castrocasbon/

Ref.: Ellen Nieswiodek-Martin, Chefredakteurin der christlichen Frauenzeitschrift Lydia, Wetzlar In diesem Jahr feiert die christliche Frauenzeitschrift Lydia ihr vierzigjähriges Bestehen. Chefredakteurin Ellen Nieswiodek-Martin ist seit zwölf Jahren verantwortlich für den Inhalt. Für sie bleibt die biblische Lydia eine inspirierende Gestalt auch für moderne Frauen: Sie war Unternehmerin und traf mutige Entscheidungen. Entgegen damaliger Gepflogenheiten ging sie eigene Wege und stellte sich ganz Gott zur Verfügung. "Solche Lydias braucht unsere Gesellschaft", ist Ellen Nieswiodek-Martin überzeugt. In der Lebenshilfe sprechen wir mit der Journalistin über Herausforderungen und Aufgaben einer christlichen Frauenzeitschrift, das Motto des 40jährigen Jubiläums "hoffnungs.voll" und ihren persönlichen Weg als christliche Frau in einer säkularisierten Welt.

Gestalt Language Processing (GLP) and Natural Language Acquisition (NLA) have become extraordinarily popular in speech-language pathology, particularly in conversations about autistic children who use echolalia. But what exactly is a "Gestalt Language Processor?" How would we know if someone is one? And perhaps most importantly, what does the research actually tell us about the claims and treatment recommendations associated with GLP and NLA? In this episode, I'm joined by speech-language pathologist Kathleen Oppenheimer, who has spent considerable time examining these questions through the lens of language science and psycholinguistics. Kathleen describes how she first encountered GLP and NLA on social media during the pandemic and why some of the claims she encountered immediately raised questions for her as someone trained in linguistics. We unpack the distinction between language production and language processing, and discuss why observing the words and phrases a child says cannot necessarily tell us how that child is processing language. We also explore an important nuance in this debate: Many practices commonly associated with NLA are quite reasonable—and in some cases very well aligned with established, evidence-based approaches. Following the child's lead, building strong therapeutic relationships, recognizing echolalia as meaningful communication, and honoring multiple forms of communication are all valuable practices. But those practices aren't unique to NLA. Kathleen contrasts NLA recommendations with research-supported approaches such as Enhanced Milieu Teaching, and explains why recommendations involving prompting, single-word models, verbs, and grammatical language input matter for language development. Along the way, we discuss: What GLP and NLA actually claim about language development. Why defining and reliably identifying a "Gestalt Language Processor" is more difficult than social media might suggest. The difference between what a child says and how researchers determine what a child is actually processing. What psycholinguistic methods such as the visual world paradigm can tell us about real-time language comprehension. Why echolalia can be meaningful communication without accepting the larger GLP/NLA framework. The substantial areas of common ground between NLA proponents and research-aligned language interventions. Why following a child's lead and honoring their communication does not require adopting NLA stages. How Enhanced Milieu Teaching differs from NLA-based intervention. Concerns about recommendations to avoid or delay modeling single words, verbs, and certain grammatical forms. What we know—and don't know—about the empirical evidence supporting GLP/NLA. How social media can turn nuanced clinical ideas into much broader claims. The potential costs of implementing unsupported interventions, even when those interventions appear benign. How clinicians can have productive conversations with colleagues and families who have embraced GLP/NLA. Why clear, jargon-free explanations of what we're doing in therapy—and why we're doing it—matter. One thing I especially appreciated about this conversation is that Kathleen doesn't approach this as a simple choice between being "for" or "against" GLP/NLA. Instead, she encourages us to pull apart the individual claims and practices, retain the components that are supported by evidence, and scrutinize those that aren't. For clinicians navigating an increasingly complicated landscape of research, social media, and rapidly spreading treatment approaches, I think that's an incredibly useful framework.

In this interview, a throwdown between Aristotelian and Platonic philosophy of personal growth, with Steve Barton, a Gestalt psychology-trained High-Performance Executive Coach, and he's the author of The Father, the Son, and the Aha Moment--which I read as I'm a new-ish dad. The book, which is really about mindset, has some good insights, but I disagreed with a few of its fundamental suppositions. It's a bit too Platonic for my tastes, but I invited Steve on the podcast for a bit of friendly disagreement...04:20 The Game of Ten: Foundations and Philosophy08:19 Radical Self-Acceptance and Divine Consciousness13:11 Boundaries, Agreements, and Relationship Dynamics19:55 Genetic Predispositions and Self-Awareness24:46 Biohacking and Emotional Resilience Strategies33:52 Case Study: PTSD and Contracting with Self41:13 The Power of Forgiveness and Letting Go50:58 Unconditional Love, Boundaries, and Self-Protection01:00:27 The Role of Brain Training and Biohacking01:10:04 Practical Applications and Client Success Stories01:14:59 Final Message for Future GenerationsFor everything mentioned here, read: Aristotelian vs Platonic Personal Growth

Former Manhattan securities lawyer and psychic detective Nancy du Tertre explores remote viewing, extrasensory perception, and the mind control tactics she survived in Russia in episode 258 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.Known as “The Skeptical Psychic,” Nancy du Tertre is a certified intuitive Gestalt psychotherapist, consciousness researcher, and author of six books. Her investigation into the science of intuition led to a decade of training with remote viewing pioneer Ingo Swann and psychic detective Nancy Lorren Weber, followed by work assisting law enforcement with homicide and missing person cases. Her books explore psychic perception, mind control, ET contact, and exolinguistics, including How to Talk to an Alien and The Cult of the Occult.In this episode, Faust and Nancy explore how a highly analytical skeptic learned to develop psychic abilities, use remote viewing in homicide and missing person investigations, and recognize the limits of logic when confronted with direct experience. Nancy recounts the mind control and cult manipulation she survived in Russia, along with the serious injury and unexplained healing that followed. They also discuss UFO experiencers, extraterrestrial contact, cult psychology, human consciousness, and the risks of merging the human mind with AI.In this episode:• From Wall Street Lawyer to Psychic Detective: A lifelong skeptic's unexpected path from fraud detection to remote viewing and consciousness research.• Training Under Ingo Swann: The moment Nancy stopped taking notes and started proving psychic abilities to herself.• Target Sensing Performance: Why the analytical mind may be the biggest obstacle to accurate remote viewing.• Psychic Detective Investigations: What can psychics contribute when homicide and missing person cases go cold?• The Mind of a Murderer: Inside the disturbing psychological cost of stepping into a killer's consciousness.• Did Stargate Ever Really End? The on-air admission that linked IRVA to the government's former remote viewing program.• Majestic 12 and John Alexander: One unexpected statement that sent UFO researchers scrambling.• Inside a Russian Mind Control Trap: How studying psychokinesis became a lesson in cult manipulation.• The UFO That Wouldn't Stay in the Sky: A close encounter that transformed Nancy's research into alien languages and exolinguistics.• How Do You Talk to an Alien? Why mainstream science may be overlooking the world's best source of extraterrestrial communication.• Human Consciousness vs. AI: Nancy's warning about the race to merge technology with the human mind.• Are Psychic Abilities Hidden in Everyone? Direct experience, skepticism, and the surprising case for developing your own intuition.Don't miss this compelling exploration of what becomes possible when a trained skeptic stops dismissing the unexplained and begins testing it for herself.Check out Nancy's new bookThe Cult of the Occult: Falling Down the Russian Rabbit Holehttps://a.co/d/08NrjstuConnect with Nancy du Tertrehttps://www.theskepticalpsychic.comhttps://www.instagram.com/theskepticalpsychicJoin us on PatreonFor uncensored episodes, behind-the-scenes content, and exclusive community access:https://patreon.com/FarOutWithFaustListen on Spotify + Apple PodcastsSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6StPwgq2di3f8uxnc6SmIfApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/far-out-with-faust-fowf/id1533017218FOWF & Faust Checho on socialhttps://www.instagram.com/faroutwithfaust/https://www.instagram.com/theonefaustchecho/https://www.facebook.com/Faroutwithfausthttps://x.com/faustchechohttps://patreon.com/FarOutWithFaustQUESTION THE ANSWERS™we'd love to hear from you

Lektion 219 Ich bin kein Körper. Ich bin frei. Denn ich bin nach wie vor, wie GOTT mich schuf. (199) Ich bin kein Körper. Ich bin frei. - EKIW 219 Jenseits der Gestalt. Die heutige Wiederholung ist radikal einfach. Sie enthält keine weitere Erklärung, keine zusätzliche Aufgabe und keinen neuen Gedanken. Nur diese Erinnerung: Ich bin kein Körper. Ich bin frei. Denn ich bin nach wie vor, wie Gott mich schuf. Fast mein ganzes Leben lang habe ich gelernt, mich mit einer Form zu identifizieren – mit meinem Namen, meiner Geschichte, meinem Aussehen und meinen Grenzen. Doch all das verändert sich unaufhörlich. Die Lektion lädt mich ein, einen Schritt zurückzutreten und zu fragen, ob das wirklich alles ist, was ich bin. Hinter allen Rollen, hinter jedem Erfolg und jedem Scheitern, gibt es einen stillen Ort, der unberührt bleibt. Dort brauche ich nichts zu verteidigen und nichts zu beweisen. Dort endet die Angst, weil meine Wirklichkeit nicht von der Welt abhängt. Jenseits der Gestalt heißt: Was ich in Wahrheit bin, kann weder altern noch verletzt werden. Wenn ich für einen Augenblick vergesse, wer ich zu sein glaube, öffnet sich der Blick auf das, was ich schon immer gewesen bin – frei, grenzenlos und unverändert.

Özlediğini söyler; fakat bu özlemin kime, neye ve nasıl bir ilişkiye ait olduğunu tarif etmekte zorlanır. Yakınlık ihtiyacıyla kendini kaybetme korkusu arasında gidip gelir. Duygularını açtıkça öfkesi, utancı ve uzaklaşma isteği de görünür hâle gelir.Begüm, bir yandan anlaşılmak ve tutulmak isterken diğer yandan ilişki derinleştikçe geri çekilir. Bu bölüm, onun “o” diye andığı kişiyle birlikte kendi içindeki eksik ve korunmasız taraflarıyla temasa doğru ilerleyişini anlatır.NOT: Begüm karakterine sesiyle hayat veren Miray Aşan'a gönülden teşekkür ederim.

That child who waits for you to start every sentence? In this replay I sit down with SLP Alexandria Zachos — founder of Meaningful Speech — to talk about how years of prompting quietly create prompt dependence, and how silence, connection, and a child-led approach help gestalt language processors find their own spontaneous voice. Prompting doesn't lead to spontaneous language. Connection, silence, and meeting a child where they are do. Gestalt language processing (GLP) is a normal, natural way of developing language — just a different path than the analytic, word-by-word route most of us were taught. Alex walks us through what it actually is, how the stages unfold from delayed echolalia to flexible, novel grammar, and why so many kids we've labeled "echolalic" or "scripting" are simply gestalt language processors who need a different kind of support. We also dig into the hard truth about prompting — why fill-in-the-blank, cloze phrases, and always initiating for a child can lead to prompt dependence — and what to do instead: natural language modeling, honoring all communication, and trusting silence to make room for language to emerge. We'll talk about: ●  what gestalt language processing is — and why it isn't a disorder ●  the six stages of gestalt language development, from delayed echolalia to complex grammar ●  how prompting and compliance-based strategies create prompt dependence over time ●  why our ultimate goal is spontaneous, flexible, multimodal communication ●  how silence, connection, and being a trusted communication partner change everything ●  why it's never too late for an older child who has become prompt dependent In This Episode, You'll Learn •  What gestalt language processing is, and how it differs from analytic language development •  How the stages unfold — delayed echolalia, mitigated echolalia, the "magic" word-freeing stage, and grammar •  Why delayed echolalia is always communicating something, even when it isn't literal •  How to do "detective work" to figure out what a child's gestalt actually means •  Why years of prompting and cloze phrases lead to prompt dependence, not spontaneous language •  What targeted natural language modeling looks like across communicative functions •  Why "the change starts with us," not with fixing the child •  How silence and the OWL approach (Observe, Wait, Listen) create space for language to emerge •  Why acknowledging all communication — a smile, a nod, a repeat — builds the trust language grows from Key Takeaways •  Gestalt language processing is a natural way of developing language, not a disorder •  Delayed echolalia is meaningful — it's communicating something worth investigating •  Prompting does not build spontaneous communicators; child-led support does •  Our goal is spontaneous, flexible, novel communication — including through AAC •  Change starts with what we model and how we respond, not with the child •  Silence is a strategy: spontaneous language emerges when the pressure is off •  Acknowledge all communication to build the relationship and trust •  Use a child's own gestalts — and put them into AAC — for instant buy-in •  It's never too late for an older, prompt-dependent child Try This •  Notice how often you prompt, question, or fill in the blank — then try saying less •  Use the OWL approach: observe, wait, and listen before you speak •  Let silence sit; follow the child's lead and join what they love •  Acknowledge every attempt to communicate with a repeat, a smile, or a nod •  Model language naturally instead of asking the child to perform it •  When you hear a gestalt, do some detective work to learn what it means •  Add a child's gestalts into their AAC device for automatic buy-in •  With an older prompt-dependent child, plan low-pressure sessions to rebuild trust first Related Resources & Links

Es gibt diese Spiele, die mit nur ein, zwei Screenshots einen mächtigen Eindruck hinterlassen. Und Recollage gehört zu diesen seltenen Titeln: Ein Hase mit roten Glubschaugen geiert über einen tiefen Abgrund, aus dem ein Anglerfisch mit Armen und Beinen zurückstarrt. Eine Ratte mit menschlichem Gesicht huscht durch den Schatten, während eine zweiköpfige Gestalt - eine Mischung aus Frosch und Halbmond (?!) - im Mondlicht wartet. Kein Witz: Diese Kreaturen gibt es allesamt in dem ungewöhnlichen Adventure - wenn die SpielerInnen das wünschen. Denn in Recollage können und müssen wir unsere Spielfigur immer wieder ganz neu umbauen und zurechtbasteln, damit sie die vielen Rätsel lösen kann. Lösungswege gibt es viele, seltsame Kreaturen, die dabei entstehen, sowieso. Und der bizarre Look passt nicht zuletzt ganz wunderbar zur Geschichte, die Recollage erzählt - es geht um Kindheitstrauma, dysfunktionale Eltern-Kind-Beziehungen und die Schwierigkeiten des noch-nicht-erwachsen-Seins. Hinter dem Spiel steckt ein dreiköpfiges Studi-Team der HTW Berlin, die eigentlich noch weit vor ihren Abschlussarbeiten und dem Einstieg ins Berufsleben als SpieleentwicklerInnen stehen. Und trotzdem ist ihr erstes gemeinsames Projekt jetzt schon so interessant, ausgereift und vielversprechend, das Dom mit Marius Mülhaupt, einem der drei Köpfe von Studio Windspiel, unbedingt sprechen musste.

⚠️ Heads up: this episode opens with combat footage from the Tet Offensive and includes graphic descriptions of battlefield injury, a child in medical crisis, and animal experimentation. If you or someone you know is struggling, the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available by call or text at 988.⚠️ Jeb and Blake look at the birth of NDE research: a field of study with a significant footprint in the metro-Atlanta area. Rats are bothered. Soldiers are wounded. Canadian teens are frozen. ...and we're here to talk about all of it.

Du wachst auf, bist hellwach – und kannst dich nicht rühren. Etwas drückt auf deine Brust, im Zimmer steht eine dunkle Gestalt, du willst schreien und bringst keinen Ton heraus. Was passiert da gerade? In dieser Folge sprechen Franca und Christian über die Schlafparalyse – eine Grenzerfahrungen des Schlafs, die mehr Menschen erleben als man glaubt. Sie entsteht, wenn das Bewusstsein schon wach ist, während der Körper noch in der Muskellähmung des Traumschlafs feststeckt.

In this episode of Food Junkies, Dr. Vera Tarman and Clarissa Kennedy sit down with Brian Baumal, a registered psychotherapist based in Toronto and owner of Aliva Psychotherapy, where he specializes in weight management, eating disorders, food addiction, and psychological support for bariatric surgery patients. Brian trained at the Gestalt Institute of Toronto and has been a licensed member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario since 2015. He's also a food addict in long-term recovery, having lost 100 pounds and kept it off for over 14 years. Brian shares the moment that changed his understanding of food addiction forever — an intense, addictive reaction to a piece of chocolate at a holiday party that made him realize this was on an entirely different scale than an ordinary craving. From there, the conversation dives deep into perfectionism: how shame and diet culture create an idealized, unrealistic self-image; the difference between adaptive perfectionism (using structure and tools in service of recovery) and toxic or maladaptive perfectionism (an all-or-nothing mindset that treats any slip as total failure); and how perfectionism can quietly become a "runaway train," redirecting obsessive focus from food onto weight, exercise, or other behaviors. Brian also explains how he uses a Gestalt therapy lens — treating what shows up in the room between therapist and client as the material for the work itself — to help clients build individualized, flexible recovery plans instead of rigid, punishment-driven rules. The group discusses distinguishing an addictive relapse from a psychological or shame-based slip, the role of relapse plans and "gathering data" after a slip, and why using tools (scales, timers, structure) isn't a sign of weakness but a sustainable part of long-term recovery. The episode closes with Brian's reflections on chairing the Sugar and Food Addiction Professionals Network, a free Facebook community of nearly 200 food addiction professionals offering training, research updates, and access to leading voices in the field. Topics Covered Brian's personal food addiction story and his "aha moment" with chocolate at a holiday party What Gestalt therapy is and how it approaches defense mechanisms relationally How shame and diet culture create unrealistic, idealized self-images Adaptive vs. maladaptive (toxic) perfectionism in recovery Perfectionism as a "runaway train" — when focus shifts from food to weight, exercise, or other behaviors Distinguishing an addictive relapse from a shame-driven psychological slip Building individualized, flexible abstinence and relapse plans Using tools (scales, timers, structure) without turning them into self-punishment Vulnerability factors: trauma, family food dynamics, anxious or over-controlled personality styles Adaptive perfectionism as flexibility, not the absence of high standards The Sugar and Food Addiction Professionals Network on Facebook Connect with Brian Baumal Website: Aliva Psychotherapy — https://alivapsychotherapy.com/ WORKSHOP LINKS:

Ever wonder why certain conflicts keep resurfacing in your relationships, or why you wake from a vivid dream feeling shaken without understanding why? Sometimes, the real roots of our struggles with loved ones aren't just out in the open—they're buried in the deeper layers of our own subconscious. When we ignore these internal signals, challenges can feel insurmountable, and solutions remain out of reach. In this episode, listeners will explore how dreams and moments of inner reflection can act as a mirror, revealing hidden emotions and unresolved patterns that shape the way we connect with others. By diving into the interplay between our inner world and our daily lives, practical techniques are shared to help harness the wisdom of dreams and self-inquiry—so relationships can become more creative, connected, and resilient in the face of recurring challenges. Bonnie Buckner, PhD, is founder and CEO of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery®, author of THE SECRET MIND, and Program Lead for George Washington University's One Humanity Leadership Coaching Certification Program, where she uses dreaming and imagery work to develop coaches.   Episode Highlights 04:37 How nighttime reflections illuminate daily life and relationships. 08:52 Emotional processing: Recalibrating through dreams. 11:39 Dreams as personal mirrors: Identifying patterns and insights. 14:06 Creativity, imagination, and the value of contemplative states. 16:25 Applying dreamwork principles to relationship challenges. 19:31 Inner conflict, projection, and energetic shifts in relationships. 24:05 Linking inner awareness to relationship dynamics. 28:53 The essentials of effective dream journaling. 30:58 Benefits of detailed dream recall and handwriting practices. 35:11 Shifting relationship patterns through dream awareness. 39:45 Perspective-taking and empathy through dream-inspired creativity. 42:31 Navigating mystery and uncertainty in relationship communication. 48:18 Best practices for couples exploring dreams together.   Your Checklist of Actions to Take Record Your Dreams: Write down your dreams in detail as soon as you wake up, resisting the urge to edit or judge the content. Reflect Without Editing: Practice non-editing and non-judging by documenting all aspects of your dream, including emotions, images, and phrases, to foster honest self-inquiry. Identify Emotional Themes: Look for recurring emotions or patterns in your dreams, such as anger or anxiety, which may point to unresolved inner conflicts. Apply Dream Insights to Waking Life: If you notice yourself using strong language (e.g., "nightmare boss") in daily life, pause to examine your emotional response and recalibrate internally. Practice Waking Dream Exercises: Revisit challenging dream scenarios while awake, imagining new responses—like facing a monster instead of running—to shift internal dynamics. Acknowledge All Facets of Self: Recognize that different dream symbols represent multiple aspects of yourself, helping you better understand your reactions and behaviors. Share Dreams Mindfully With Partners: When discussing dreams with your partner, speak from your own perspective (e.g., "If it were my dream...") and avoid interpreting their experience as fact. Embrace Curiosity and Mystery: Approach both your dreams and your partner with openness to not knowing, allowing for shared exploration and growth even through uncertainty.   Mentioned The Secret Mind (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) One Humanity Leadership Coaching Certification (*George Washington University) (program) Jeremy Taylor (dream worker) (article) DreamSenseMemory - a Gestalt-based dream-work approach embracing all our senses (National Library of Medicine) (article) Relationship Map To Happy, Lasting Love (free relationship guide)   Connect with Dr. Bonnie Buckner Websites: bonniebuckner.com | institutefordreamingandimagery.com Facebook: facebook.com/drbonniebuckner/ | facebook.com/institutefordreamingandimagery Instagram: instagram.com/bonniebucknerdotcom/ | instagram.com/dreamwithiidi LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bonniebuckner/ | linkedin.com/company/international-institute-for-dreaming-and-imagery/posts/?feedView=all

Send us Fan MailDisruption doesn't “settle down” anymore. It stacks, spreads, and speeds up until leaders start feeling like the only stable thing is the chaos itself. That's why I sat down with leadership, team, and organizational coach Dorothy Seminovich to unpack a powerful concept gaining traction: meta-ruption, the relentless convergence of disruptions across technology, geopolitics, climate, economics, social systems, and even personal identity.From there, we get practical about what leaders and coaches can actually do. Dorothy makes a clear case for adaptive presence, not just showing up with confidence, but expanding your range so you can meet the moment as it changes. We talk about how trust forms in an instant, why presence is relational, and how a leader can name uncertainty, reduce shame, and keep connection without pretending to have answers they don't have. If you care about executive presence, adaptive leadership, high performance teams, or coaching in chaos, this conversation offers language and tools you can use right away.We also dig into stabilizing the inner system through Gestalt coaching and embodied awareness. Instead of looking outside for certainty, Dorothy shares how “checking in with your interior” reveals real data: what you feel, what matters, what's missing, and what you're avoiding. Those small, unscripted moments often become the turning points that create psychological safety, spark courage, and move a team forward even when the future is unclear.Subscribe for more conversations like this, share the episode with a coach or leader navigating constant change, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

„Wir aber predigen den gekreuzigten Christus.“ Das Bild, das ich hier zu malen habe, kann nur erschrecken. Was soll das und warum ist gerade das Bild des gekreuzigten so wichtig?

Amanda King & Hari Kuhan Integrative oncologist Dr Hari Kuhan and metabolic nutritionist Amanda King join Jackie to talk metabolic therapy for cancer, why the ketogenic diet stresses cancer cells, and what’s in their new book, Metabolic Drugs for Cancer. “Apply the brakes on a growing cancer. Anything above that obviously is a blessing and brilliant, but that's the number one.” — Dr Hari Kuhan “The ketogenic diet causes stress on cancer cells, and stressed cancer cells are weaker.” — Amanda King About Hari Kuhan Dr Hari Kuhan completed his undergraduate medical training at Imperial College London, where he also obtained a BSc in Surgery and Anaesthesia. He carried out his foundation and core medical training in Central London, with appointments at St Mary’s Hospital and St Bartholomew’s Hospital. Over time, he built substantial expertise in Medical Oncology, working at leading institutions including St Bartholomew’s, University College London, and the Royal Marsden Hospital. He then pursued a research fellowship at Barts Cancer Institute, London funded by Stand Up to Cancer and HCA Healthcare, focusing on metabolic vulnerabilities in cancer stem cells and circulating tumour cells through the use of repurposed medicines and Vitamin C. Expanding his reach into translational and clinical development, Dr Kuhan joined the Sarah Cannon Research Institute UK (Harley Street), London where he served as lead sub-investigator on multiple Phase I and II solid tumour trials, and became adept at integrating next-generation sequencing outputs into therapeutic decision-making. Motivated by both scientific innovation and patient-centred care, Dr Kuhan co-founded Lucio Health with long-time associate Raphael Swery, united by a vision to reshape cancer care for the 21st century. Together, they established a clinic that integrates precision oncology, metabolic targeting, repurposed medicines, and evidence-based integrative strategies—pioneering a personalised model that moves beyond the limitations of conventional, one-size-fits-all approaches. At Lucio Health, cutting-edge AI-driven platforms interpret complex mutational and molecular data, while functional sensitivity testing of blood and tissue samples reveals how an individual’s cancer responds to a wide range of agents in real time. These insights are then integrated with metabolic and genomic profiling to create multi-layered, personalised roadmaps for each patient—designed not only to identify the most promising treatments, but also to avoid those unlikely to help. The ambition of Lucio Health is to bridge the gap between laboratory science and lived patient experience: translating the latest advances in genomics, artificial intelligence, and metabolic oncology into practical, compassionate, and highly individualised care pathways. It is a clinic built on the belief that cancer treatment should be as unique as the patient facing it, combining clarity and scientific precision with humanity and hope. About Amanda King After earning her BSc through the Open University that combined Human Biology with Psychology and Counselling, Amanda King advanced her clinical training through the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London, qualifying as a Nutritional Therapist in 2022 and as a Naturopathic Practitioner in 2024. Most recently, she completed the Practitioner Master Course in Integrative Metabolic Oncology with the Metabolic Terrain Institute of Health under Dr Nasha Winters, further deepening her expertise in terrain-focused cancer care. Over the past decade, Amanda has honed her practice at the intersection of nutrigenomics, methylation science and epigenetics, integrating advanced lab diagnostics with personalised nutrition, therapeutic ketogenic and ancestral diets, and targeted supplementation to optimise each patient’s metabolic landscape. A certified nutrigenomics practitioner with training in Integrative and Gestalt psychotherapy, she is widely regarded for translating complex genomic and hormonal data such as DNA methylation panels and DUTCH hormone testing into pragmatic nutrition and lifestyle protocols that address both biochemical individuality and psychological wellbeing. In her integrative oncology nutrition practice, Amanda delivers bespoke protocols that weave together diet, lifestyle optimisation, mindset coaching and evidence-based complementary therapies, empowering patients to navigate cancer with clarity and agency. Committed to reshaping the dialogue around food as medicine, she collaborates with metabolic oncologists, functional laboratories and patient-advocacy groups worldwide to expand access to precision, nutrition-centred oncology care and to generate rigorous outcome data that will elevate the standard of integrative cancer support.

Today on The Cameron Journal Podcast, we are joined by Marcy Waelti. She is a Gestalt equine therapy practitioner for neurodivergent people, and she does this work on her magical slice of land called That Zen Farm. 2 years ago, she had no idea that she was going to write a book or that she should even write a book, and we've worked together over the past 2 years to make her book a possibility, and now it's out! If you're a professional working with ND clients, ND yourself or a parent, this book is one part memoir, one part practical advice, and one part exploration of how horses can heal humans.Pre order That Zen Farm now

En el episodio de hoy hablaremos de una idea que podría cambiar la forma en que entiendes tu salud, tus emociones y hasta las crisis que enfrentas. Abordaremos el tema de cómo las experiencias de la infancia, los conflictos emocionales no resueltos y las heridas del pasado pueden seguir influyendo en nuestra vida adulta, nuestras relaciones e incluso en nuestro bienestar físico. Junto a un experto en psicoterapia Gestalt, exploraremos la relación entre mente, emociones y enfermedad, el impacto de la ansiedad, la desesperación y el estrés en el cuerpo, y por qué muchas personas viven atrapadas en patrones que aprendieron desde niños. También conoceremos casos sorprendentes donde la terapia ayudó a las personas a enfrentar conflictos profundos que estaban afectando su salud. ¿Las crisis llegan para destruirnos o para transformarnos?, ¿somos víctimas de nuestro pasado o podemos reescribir nuestra historia?, un episodio que cuestiona muchas creencias y abre la puerta a una reflexión profunda sobre la sanación emocional.

We hear the word "closure" everywhere — in true crime shows, in news coverage of trials, and in the well-meaning advice of friends after a loss. But where did this idea come from, and does the research actually support it? In this episode I trace the surprising history of closure, from the Gestalt psychologists of the 1920s, to Arie Kruglanski's research on the "need for cognitive closure," to its takeover by talk shows, the victims' rights movement, and even the funeral industry in the 1990s. Along the way we look at what the science really shows: the craving for answers is real and measurable, and confirming the reality of a death does help people grieve. But sociologist Nancy Berns, family therapist Pauline Boss (who coined the term "ambiguous loss"), and a striking study comparing homicide survivors in death penalty and life-sentence states all point to the same conclusion — grief doesn't have a finish line, and expecting one may do more harm than good. And then there's my cat. After I brought one of my cats to be euthanized, several people asked whether I'd brought my other cat along "so she could have closure." That question sent me into the research on animal grief: recent studies show that surviving dogs and cats really do change their behavior after a companion dies — seeking attention, eating less, even searching the house for their missing friend. But the one study that looked directly at whether viewing the body makes a difference found no effect at all. So is pet closure real science, or are we projecting a contested human concept onto our animals? Listen in and decide — and then ask yourself who that goodbye ritual is really for.

Brita Ostrom is the author of the new memoir "Steeped: A Bug Sur Elixir of Sulfur and Sage," a vivid, intimate, and often wonderfully unsentimental account of her life in Big Sur and at Esalen during 1967 and 1968. Brita arrived in California during a hinge moment in American culture: she landed in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco nine months before the Summer of Love, smack dab in the middle of the psychedelic revolution and the early flowering of the human potential movement. From there, she made her way down the coast to Big Sur, and eventually to Esalen. During this conversation, Britt talks about sleeping outside on the land, about all the local music that seemed to appear everywhere, the early days of Gestalt and encounter, the role of psychedelics, the emergence of Esalen massage, the complicated freedoms of sexual liberation, and the ways women at Esalen began to find one another as allies in a community that was still very much shaped by male teachers, male authority, and male mythology. Brita's perspective neither romanticizes the period nor flattens it into critique. She remembers the beauty, the wildness, the tenderness, the bad behavior, the spiritual ambition, the confusion, and the sheer strangeness of a place where a person might dance under the stars one night, confront their childhood wounds the next morning, give massage in the baths that afternoon, and then end up in a conversation that night with someone who had just wandered in from the outer edge of American culture.

Send us Fan Mail If you're “fine” on paper but tired in your bones, start with one honest question: on a scale of 1 to 10, how are you really doing? We sit down with Steve Barton, a Gestalt-certified mindset coach, entrepreneur, and creator of The Game of Ten, to unpack why so many capable people feel stuck even after they've built the life they thought they wanted. His core premise is surprisingly hopeful: you're already a 10, and the work is remembering it. We talk about how disappointments, trauma, and early conditioning can pull us down from that original wholeness and leave us viewing life through an old lens we may not even remember. Steve explains what different “numbers” look like, why the lower states can keep attracting more of the same patterns, and how awareness and self-acceptance create the foundation for real change. If you've been searching for practical tools for self-awareness, mental wellness, emotional healing, and personal growth, this framework gives you a clear language to name what's happening inside you. We also go straight at perfectionism and control. Steve calls perfectionism the highest form of self-abuse and says the hardest step is often the leap from 9 to 10 because it requires letting go. The paradox is powerful: release control, and you finally gain the kind of control that comes from alignment with your values, purpose, and what you actually want. To close, Steve shares a direct invitation for anyone quietly exhausted: rest and care for yourself first, because you can't heal others unless you're healing yourself.

Once an ironman athlete and perfectionist, Risa August faced a devastating diagnosis that stripped away her former life. This is the story of how she found new purpose and adventure, transforming her approach to life, from rigid achievement to joyful discovery, even with her unexpected companion, "Bubba," her brain tumor.    Chapters: 00:00 From Extreme Achiever to Illness  Host Bill Burke introduces Risa August, an adventurous woman who once excelled in extreme sports, asking, "Is there anything you can't do?" Risa describes her past as an intense overachiever and perfectionist, pushing limits in Ironman, mountain climbing, and hot yoga, always striving to be better than others and maintaining a rigid lifestyle.  03:51 The Diagnosis of Acromegaly  Risa recounts the onset of strange symptoms after her first Ironman in 2010, including significant weight gain despite a strict diet and increasing fatigue. After years of doctors dismissing her concerns, she insisted on an MRI, which revealed an enlarged pituitary and led to her diagnosis of acromegaly, a serious condition she had never heard of before.  11:09 Choosing Adventure Over Despair  Faced with a devastating diagnosis and a challenging life, Risa decided not to break down but to break out, committing to her adventures despite doctors' warnings about what she could no longer do. She realized she would never be her old self, so she focused on "who can I be then?" and made a conscious decision to truly live life on her own terms.  14:00 The Road Unpaved and Bubba  Risa found a new purpose in a cross-country bicycle journey along the Pacific Coast Highway, a trip she committed to doing on her own terms after reflecting on her past perfectionism. She also named her brain tumor 'Bubba' as a way to connect with her changing body, turning him into a central character and partner in her healing journey and the book.  21:29 Gestalt Therapy and Connection  Risa discusses how her Gestalt therapy training, which she underwent during her diagnosis, provided a crucial support network and helped her become a more patient, compassionate, and curious practitioner. She also emphasizes the importance of deep, personal connection and active listening, a lesson she learned on her bike tour by giving others a chance and finding unexpected commonalities.  30:13 The CAN Framework  Risa shares her 'CAN' framework—Capable, Able, Now—which she developed after feeling stuck post-surgery and questioning her purpose. This mantra helped her simplify the complex challenges she faced, prompting her to ask, "What am I capable and able to do now, in this moment?"  35:29 Living a Full Life Now  Risa openly discusses the progression of her acromegaly and its physical toll, yet she maintains a strong mindset, dedicated to inspiring others to live full lives. She now finds joy in simple things, like perusing a farmer's market, and doesn't worry about disappointing others by not always seeking the 'next big thing.'
