The Modern Therapist's Survival Guide with Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy
Career Trekking with MTSG An interview with Marissa Esquibel, LMFT on her journey from community mental health to private practice. Curt and Katie talk with Marissa about how she used the Modern Therapist’s Survival Guide podcast to shift her mindset and change her career trajectory. Marissa highlights the benefits of belief, guidance, and community. It’s time to reimagine therapy and what it means to be a therapist. To support you as a whole person and a therapist, your hosts, Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy talk about how to approach the role of therapist in the modern age. Interview with Marissa Esquibel, LMFT “Though she be but little, she is fierce.” – Shakespeare Marissa Esquibel is not like a regular therapist, she’s a cool therapist. With her practice located near Los Angeles, Marissa is on a one-woman mission to empower young women to stop playing small and to start taking up space. She works exclusively with young adults, 20-something’s, who are checking off all the boxes of “success,” and yet, they feel like failures internally. They often come to Marissa dealing with depression, anxiety, imposter syndrome, or codependency. As an undergraduate, she attended UC Santa Barbara and then received her Masters in Clinical Psychology from California State University, Fullerton. In September of 2018, she became licensed and opened-up shop to her virtual therapy practice in March 2020. When Marissa is not in session with patients, she spends her time reading, hanging out with friends and family, binging on podcasts and audiobooks, attending her own therapy, and making sure to get her 10,000 steps a day. She loves her work, job, and life and looks forward to connecting with you. Learn more about Marissa at therapywithmarissa.com In this episode we talk about: Marissa’s burnout story and how she made the trek from community mental health to private practice Reflections on the question: what do therapists get wrong (and the self-analysis and feedback informed nature of the question) The idea of self-sacrifice and hard work being required to be a good therapist The importance of critical thinking regarding what is effective, what is healthy for me How Marissa made the decision to move to a group practice and then her own private practice Marissa’s experience at Therapy Reimagined 2019 and her follow up with speakers The need for belief, guidance, and community Marissa talks about the episodes that helped her to move forward How Marissa implemented a new plan for her career “I choose this agony, this heart ache, this effort” – Marissa Esquibel, LMFT Marissa’s choice to be vulnerable at this time and to keep on going The determination and belief that has kept Marissa moving forward on her vision and mission The need to hear from (and connecting with) people at each stage of career development Our Generous Sponsors: GreenOak Accounting If you love dreaming about growing your practice, but you feel a disconnect between where you are now and where you want to be, check out GreenOak Accounting.

Can you run an animal-based farm and simultaneously be passionate about animal welfare? Our guest today proves that those two things aren’t a direct conflict of interests. Marissa Paykos of Hardeeville, South Carolina joins us today to tell us all about her farming operation, Whippoorwill Farms. Whippoorwill is a small farm with plans on making a BIG impact! It’s a 40 acre raw plot of land turned into a family farm offering premium fresh butchered chicken, rabbit, and pork as well as fresh eggs and seasonal veggies. Marissa and her husband, James, take great pride in providing a humane environment for the animals on their farm. They are given the opportunity to live their best life and the living conditions there are far above the standard of what most animals experience. Tune in to find out how she built her farm and how she maintains her humane animal farm operation! You’ll hear: An overview of Whippoorwill Farms 1:01 How Marissa found a processor for the rabbit side of the farm 2:36 The layout of Whippoorwill Farms 3:42 About Marissa’s professional background prior to farming and what the transition was like 7:41 How Marissa handled the financial aspect of the farm’s growth 11:18 How Whippoorwill incorporates biochar into their operation 14:26 How Whippoorwill prioritizes important tasks 19:09 What is the hardest part of running the farm is for Marissa 21:40 Who Marissa’s mentors were throughout her farming journey 24:41 How Marissa approaches farm tours 34:17 What Marissa would change in the early stages of her farm 36:22 Who Johnny is and what his role is on the farm 38:25 How Marissa divides roles on the farm 42:49 Where Whippoorwill Farms focuses their marketing efforts 50:11 About farm stays at Whippoorwill 56:19 The story behind their pay-what-you-can produce stand 1.07:01 The biggest mistakes Marissa sees newer farmers making 1.17:12 What kinds of goats are being bred on the farm 1.20:18 Marissa’s favorite farm tool 1.21:35 Where you can find out more about Marissa and Whippoorwill Farms 1.23:46 About the Guest:Marissa Paykos is a first generation farmer in the lowcountry of South Carolina who focuses on land management and regeneration through the use of heritage breed livestock and permaculture on her 40 acre biodiverse farm. With a focus on her community and the environment, Marissa has been changing the game and inspiring many since her start. Marissa farms full time, with her 5 year old sidekick daughter Ellie, who has been by her side or on her back since the farm's inception just 5 short years ago. Marissa also freelances as a website developer and social media manager, as well as helps manage a local weekly farmers market. Marissa’s husband works an off-farm conventional job and has let Marissa take the reins and fully grow her dreams as he cheers from the side. Inspired by the desire to provide a better life for her soon to be born baby, husband, and herself, Marissa and her husband purchased their first piece of raw land of just 2 acres in 2015 that they farmed sustainably. After 2 years of working to build up infrastructure and homestead for themselves they moved to publicly selling in Fall of 2018. After 1 year of selling publicly, in late 2019, they took a leap to grow the business and purchased their new piece of fully overgrown, forests to regenerate.

Marissa Solis was about six months in to a big new role at one of the biggest snack companies in the world when one of the world's biggest crisis hit. That's not hyperbole. As the new head of all marketing initiatives, media, sports, and partnerships for the core brands of Frito-Lay North America, including Doritos, Cheetos, Tostitos, and dips, it was definitely not hyperbole. That was Marissa's new reality and she had to help smoothly and quickly do the equivalent of turning a battleship. But this dynamo had previously been tapped to lead the creation of a cross-functional Hispanic Business Unit at PepsiCo and had helped double beverage sales among U.S. Hispanic consumers in a short time, so she was the right woman to face down a pandemic. Her throughline -- and recipe for success? It always has to start with the consumer. In Episode 17 Marissa explains her whirlwind responsibilities, the massive changes facing brands today, and how those Frito-Lay brands speak to specific audiences. We also talk about how COVID-19 has impacted campaigns from a Super Bowl sponsorship to a new direct to consumer approach. This is a great reminder for brands about the need to engage with consumers where they are. And right now, that is at home...with a pro-social commitment to community. For example, a big Cinco de Mayo campaign was planned and poised to roll out to retail...and instead quickly became Salsa for Cinco benefitting the Hispanic community -- which has been disproportionately affected by the pandemic. Listen to the evolution of the #AmplifyBlackVoices campaign which included letting PepsiCo ad space be used instead by Black artists to showcase their work. There's much to digest in this episode! So grab a bag of chips, click play, and enjoy! What also talked about: The importance of being agile in today's marketing world Pivoting to the direct to consumer space The “Pantry Stock Phenomenon” The different personalities of Frito-Lay brands Today's marketing renaissance Details on the benefits of Salsa for Cinco and #AmplifyBlackVoices campaigns PepsiCo’s commitment to diversity and inclusion in the workplace Engaging consumers where they are How Marissa and her family adjusted to the new normal!

Love you. Questions If you’re a self-pres 8 what is crying like for you? Or if you know a self-pres 8, do they cry often/rarely/ever? What’s that like? Self-pres 8s: do you call in sick? How does this instinctual variant soften themselves?

From Marissa’s experience in the medical equipment industry, “I saw that there was waste in the industry and I was trying to figure out what to do with that.” Although non-profits may think of themselves as solely pursuing altruistic aim, all non-profits require fundraising.
