Be you. Toss the feeling of having to conform to what you think others want you to be to the wayside. The reality is that there is no normal. It simply doesn't exist. What does exist is one you. There are no replicas. There are millions of people that are living life, but aren't comfortable in their own skin. Who don't really know who they are. It can be a somewhat slippery slope trying to be what you think you're supposed to be or live up to the expectations of others.

Have you ever looked back in a time of your life where you thought you knew more than you actually knew? This can pertain to prejudices, judgments, and unsubstantiated thoughts that place barriers for growth and connection. This can be devastating on so many levels, but it doesn't have to be. Today's episode I read an excerpt from my book, Conversations for Good, where I share a personal wake up call I experienced on a layover in Bahrain. Lessons learned and insight gained.

The simple act of kindness has both physical and emotional benefits. It impacts our mindset, increases energy, lowers blood pressure, and can even have cardiovascular benefits.

This no strings attached pursuit has the ability to strengthen our mental wellness, physical state, and mindset.

Life can be a crazy train. Throw in a pandemic, loss, grief, etc. and our ability to maintain a balanced state of mind can be tough. A great way to maintain realistic expectations of ourselves is by giving ourselves a free pass to freak out. When we feel overwhelmed, like we're wearing too many hats, or our hearts are aching...remind yourself that it's ok to cry, yell in a pillow or go for a run. We all need a healthy, safe way to release when we're feeling the tug of being overwhelmed. The message of taking time out to breathe, release and recharge is us loving ourselves as well as sending a clear sign to those around us that we have boundaries and we will at times need personal release. Check out this week's episode for the reminder that you're awesome! Want to contribute towards Goodness Chick's mission? Check out www.patreon.com/goodnesschick

In a few short weeks my third book will be released. In this week's pod, I share a chapter of my book, Won't You Be My Neighbor?

Our voices can make a difference in ways that can be difficult to wrap our minds around. This year marks the 21st year since losing my sister, Shana, and her friends, Amanda, Angela and Meg to a drunk driver. I look at how one person's voice in speaking up to prevent Melissa Marvin from driving would have altered history in some massive ways. Four more people would still be here. It's similar to social distancing right now. We're in the midst of some crazy times and doing what is right and socially distancing can and will save lives. Speaking up when we see people being selfish and not complying and reminding them, we are all in this together. Getting inspired and stoked to do what's right even when it isn't necessarily convenient is an awesome step. It simply can change the world. Let's be world changers, my friends :)

Stephen King’s “IT Chapter 2” In Theatres Reasons Why People Are Afraid Of Clowns This Friday, the evil clown Pennywise returns to theaters for Stephen King's "IT Chapter 2." Why does Pennywise make our skin crawl? It might be because many people suffer from true coulrophobia, the fear of clowns. Even without a full-blown phobia, everyone seems to agree that clowns are just a little bit scary. But have you ever wondered why? Logically, a clown is simply a person wearing makeup and silly clothes, and yet they still tend to give just about everyone the creeps. Here are some of the ten psychological reasons why some people are afraid of clowns:•They’re Unpredictable•Fear Of The Unknown•Mass Hysteria Over Clowns•Negative Portrayal In Popular Culture•Childhood Trauma•Freud’s Uncanny TheorySTORY LINK: http://listverse.com/2017/02/10/10-psychological-reasons-why-people-are-afraid-of-clowns/ =======Mental Health Perspectives is hosted by:Dr. John Huber (www.mainstreammentalhealth.org) is the Chairman for Mainstream Mental Health, a non-profit organization that brings lasting and positive change to the lives of individuals that suffer from mental health issues.

Sherrie bravely spends an hour with me talking about PTSD, therapy and resilience. Sherrie continued to look for professional support despite setbacks with the clinicians she encountered along the way. This is a must listen for clinicians to hear what worked and what did not and for survivors who are still searching for the right help.Sherrie Lawson survived the Washington Navy Yard shooting that occurred on September 16, 2013. Through her healing journey she became passionate about supporting others that also suffer from the “invisible wounds’ of trauma. She joined The Rebels Project as a member in 2014 and began working with TRP in an official capacity in 2016. After spending 15 years in Washington, DC and returning home to her native NC for two years she relocated to Denver, Colorado to become even more involved in the TRP mission of providing support for survivors of mass tragedy. Sherrie currently volunteers as Director of Operations for TRP. In addition to her work with TRP she lectures at the University of Colorado-Denver and a is SoulCollage(R) Facilitator.www.soulcollage.com

In this show Heather and I have an intimate conversation about the survivor journey and the role of peer support for mass violence survivors. Heather shares how her journey led her to start the Rebels Project. Heather Martin was two days away from her 18th birthday when the shooting occurred during her senior year at Columbine High School on April 20, 1999. After barricading in a small office for three hours, Heather returned home physically uninjured, but the effects of the trauma she experienced that day continued to impact in the following years as she went off to college. While the trauma caused her to initially drop out, she re-enrolled ten years later and obtained her Bachelors in English and teaching license. She co-founded The Rebels Project after the shooting at the Aurora, CO movie theater with other Columbine 1999 alumni. Heather is a national speaker advocating for informed responses to traumatic events from the perspective of a survivor. She currently resides in Colorado and teaches English in Aurora, CO.www.therebelsproject.org

He likes his climate like he likes his data: evolving, uncompromising, and progressive. He is a master of science; that is, he has a M.S. in Applied Behavior Analysis, however he has since grown to include many other interests, including entrepreneurship and capturing perspectives and stories through various mediums. He has used this degree to work with a lot of great people to help organizations and families in Florida and Nevada that support people with Intellectual Disabilities. Currently he leads product development and distribution for High Sierra Industries as a Learning Systems Development Specialist. His focus outside this role is on building a community of thought leaders and doers to create content that increases the transparency of behavior analytic technologies with the hopes of creating a platform that truly saves the world. His interests are all over, from artificial intelligence and machine learning applications to the theory and philosophy behind Why We Do What We Do (wwdwwdpodcast.com). In his spare time you can find him consuming social media, prepping/climbing a giant mountain, or walking around with his camera in his hand (and, occasionally, all simultaneously).
