In this episode, I answer a question about what to do when children create artwork or craft projects during child-centered play therapy. Should they take their creations home? Should therapists keep them? And if a child spends an entire session coloring or painting, are they missing out on "more important" therapeutic work? I explain why the child's creations should never be displayed in the playroom, how to approach the child's choice to take projects home or leave them with the therapist, and why preparing parents ahead of time to respond neutrally is an important part of preserving the therapeutic process. I also address a deeper assumption hidden within the question—the idea that some ways of spending a play therapy session are better than others. Child-centered play therapy calls us to release that mindset entirely. Whether a child spends the session creating art, building, talking, sitting quietly, or doing nothing at all, I explain why every moment is therapeutically valuable when we truly trust the child, embrace expectancy rather than expectations, and remain fully committed to the CCPT model.

Stress has become so normal at work that plenty of people wear it like a badge. Justin Hai wants that to change. He is the co-founder and CEO of Rebalance Health and the author of Stress Nation, and he studies what our always-on habits do to our stress, our sleep, and our health. Justin breaks down cortisol, the hormone he calls the body's alarm system, and explains why it gets stuck in the on position when we never put the phone down. He makes the case that sleep is the first thing to protect, not the last, and that most of the shortcuts people reach for are treating symptoms instead of the cause. Brandon and Justin also get practical. You will hear simple changes you can make with your phone, your evening routine, and your schedule to feel more like yourself again. They talk through why in-person connection lowers stress, the real difference between stress and anxiety, and why running your work life on four hours of sleep is a decision you would never make behind the wheel. If stress has become a badge of honor on your team, this one is worth sharing with them. About our guest Justin Hai is the co-founder and CEO of Rebalance Health, a company focused on cortisol and hormone health backed by clinical research. He is the author of Stress Nation: Escape the Technology Trap, Eliminate Stress, and Reclaim Rest, published by Wiley. Before Rebalance, he co-founded Alastin Skincare and GLO Pharmaceuticals. He holds a degree in industrial design from RISD and an MBA from Pepperdine. His work centers on how modern technology disrupts cortisol, sleep, and overall health, and what people can do to get back into balance.

In this episode of the CCPT Mythbusters series, I tackle one of the most common labels adults place on children: "They're just manipulative." I explain why manipulation requires cognitive planning, rational thinking, and intentional strategy—abilities that children simply don't possess developmentally. Instead, I unpack the difference between manipulation and conditioning, showing how children learn through emotional experiences and repeated interactions with the adults in their lives. When we view behavior through a child-centered lens, what appears to be manipulation is actually a child trying to meet emotional needs in the only ways they know how. I also discuss how this understanding transforms our conversations with parents. Rather than accepting the label of "manipulative," we can help caregivers recognize how patterns of reinforcement shape behavior and how CCPT interrupts those cycles by preserving relationship, maintaining healthy limits, and fostering genuine emotional growth. This episode is a reminder that when we stop judging children's behavior through an adult lens, we begin to see what they truly need—and that's where healing begins.

Genie Wiley was locked away for thirteen years, but rescue was only the beginning of one of psychology's most haunting cases. This episode follows the story of Genie Wiley, a child kept in near-total isolation, deprived of language, movement, comfort and the outside world until she was discovered at thirteen. Her case became a landmark in debates around language acquisition, childhood development and the critical period hypothesis — but behind the research papers was a vulnerable girl who needed care, safety and time. We trace Genie Wiley's childhood isolation and abuse, the Los Angeles welfare office discovery, and the scientists, linguists, psychologists and caregivers who became involved after her rescue. The case raises a deeply uncomfortable question: when does helping a child become studying her? And when does science start taking more than it gives? This is dark history, hidden histories and one of those strange true stories where the facts are already devastating enough. For listeners interested in psychology case studies, child neglect, developmental psychology, scientific ethics and what really happened after the headlines, Genie Wiley's story remains as heartbreaking as it is important. Topics Include Genie Wiley's childhood isolation and abuse The Los Angeles welfare office discovery The critical period hypothesis Language acquisition after childhood deprivation The scientists and caregivers who studied Genie The ethical line between care and research Resources and Further Reading Genie Wiley - Wikipedia The Mockingbird Don't Sing - IMDB Starved, tortured, forgotten: - The Guardian Wild Child Speechless After Tortured Life - ABC News Genie - Encyclopedia Britanica The Development of Language in Genie - UCLA Linguistics PDF Host & Show InfoHosts: Kyle Risi & Adam CoxIntro Music: Alice in dark WonderlandCommunity & Calls to ActionReview & follow on: Spotify & Apple PodcastsInstagram: @theCompendiumPodcastWebsite: thecompendiumpodcast.comSupport us: Sign up to PatreonShare this episode with a friend!

"...Admitting uncertainties or limitations, for example, saying, 'We can't help everyone, but here's how we are trying,' can actually boost credibility..." I am reading from Neurogiving. The Science of Donor Decision-Making by Cherian Koshy, published in 2025.Reflection question:As you're preparing your case for support or talking with donors, consider where can you be more honest about limitations instead of glossing over them or exaggerating the impact your campaign will have.Reflection on quote:Last week, we discussed how leading a capital campaign is like standing at the base of a mountain where the trail is obscured from view by the undergrowth of the forest and one key principles is to be curious when facing scrutiny. This week, we will be looking how honesty fits into leading with integrity when sharing the impact the capital campaign will have on the community. When we're leading a capital campaign in a small town, we know our neighbors and we want to appear competent and confident to them. There's a temptation, when we're asking for significant donations for something as big as a capital campaign, to want to present a version of our organization that looks like it has everything figured out. As if, we're solving the whole mountainside of problems. But that's not the story that builds trust. Think about the difference between a leader who says "This project will absolutely solve every challenge our mission, our community faces" and one who says "This project won't solve everything, but it's a meaningful step, and here's exactly how we expect it will help." The second leader is building trust and leading with integrity.  The second leader is marking the actual trail that leads up the mountainside. When we lead with honesty — including honesty about our limitations — we're not weakening our case with donors. We're strengthening it.Here's how to purchase Neurogiving from Wiley or Amazon.Quote used by permission.What do you think? Send me a text.

Robert has written three bestselling books on Warren Buffett, created the only graduate MBA course dedicated to Buffett's philosophies, and founded the Value Investor Conference in Omaha.

In this episode, I answer a question about using whispering and "I wonder" statements during role play in child-centered play therapy. One of the biggest challenges therapists face is knowing when to continue in a role the child has assigned versus when to seek additional direction. I explain why our goal is never to improvise or steer the play, but rather to follow the child's cues while remaining fully adherent to the CCPT model. Sometimes the most therapeutic response isn't another question or wonder statement—it's simply reflecting what the child has already established and patiently waiting for the next cue. I also discuss how to know when a whisper or wonder statement is appropriate, why rushing role play can unintentionally influence the child's process, and how to avoid taking the play in a direction the child never intended. This episode offers practical guidance for navigating one of the most nuanced aspects of CCPT while reinforcing a simple principle: our role is to support the child's play, not shape it.

The wait for NRSC v. FEC is over — and it landed with a bang. On June 30th, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to strike down federal limits on party coordinated expenditures, overruling a 25-year-old precedent and clearing the way for national party committees to spend unlimited amounts coordinating directly with their own federal candidates' campaigns.Hosts Micaela Isler, Adam Belmar, and David Schild bring back NABPAC general counsel Mark Renaud of Wiley to break down what actually changed and what didn't. Mark walks through why this ruling only touches the six national party committees — NRSC, DSCC, NRCC, DCCC, RNC, and DNC, plus the federal accounts of state parties — and doesn't touch contribution limits, disclosure rules, or coordination bans anywhere else in the system. He also flags the specific dollar limits multi-candidate PACs now need on their radar for giving to national and state party committees, and draws a bright line on earmarking: covering a member's party dues is fine, directing money toward a specific race is not.The conversation also covers why state-level coordination limits in roughly two dozen states could be the next domino to fall, and what PACs with genuinely novel questions should do while the FEC still lacks a quorum to issue advisory opinions. A clip from LexPolitica's Steve Roberts rounds things out with practical budget advice for PAC directors weighing bigger party contributions this cycle.

This week, Michael is joined by Maya Wiley, president and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, for a wide-ranging conversation on the power of coalition building in a moment of deep challenge. Drawing on her experience as a lifelong activist and the daughter of influential organizers, Wiley offers perspective and stresses urgency. At a time marked by rising discriminatory rhetoric, the weaponization of government power, and growing concerns about corruption, she offers a clear sense of what comes next and why collective action still matters.Check out Maya Wiley's memoir here: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/maya-wiley/remember-you-are-a-wiley/9781538739952/ Recorded on July 7, 2026.The Brennan Center is a nonpartisan law and policy institute that works to repair, revitalize, and defend our systems of democracy and justice so that they work for all Americans.

In this episode, I answer a question from a new CCPT therapist who wonders whether a child who quietly builds with Legos session after session is really doing therapeutic work. When play seems repetitive, surface-level, or disconnected from the child's personal life, it's easy to question whether meaningful progress is being made. I explain why narration, predictable play, and even seemingly simple activities can be important parts of the therapeutic process, especially early in treatment. Rather than looking for deeper themes before the child is ready, I encourage therapists to trust that every aspect of a child's play has purpose and value. I also discuss the difference between symbolic play and thematic play, why not all play is thematic, and how our own desire to understand or "figure out" the play can interfere with true child-centered practice. This episode is a reminder that we don't have to rush children toward deeper work or ask questions to move therapy forward. Our role is to remain fully accepting, trust the process, and believe that children will naturally work on what they need in their own way and in their own time.

In this episode of the CCPT Mythbusters series, I tackle a misconception that exists even within the child-centered play therapy community: the belief that CCPT doesn't work with older children. Too many therapists assume that once children reach nine or ten years old, they have "outgrown" play therapy and need a more traditional talk therapy approach. I explain why this simply isn't true. While older children may express themselves differently and rely more on conversation and activity-based play, the foundational principles of CCPT remain exactly the same. Healing has never depended on toys—it has always depended on the therapeutic relationship. I also share practical insights from working with older children and adolescents, including why so many initially resist play but eventually embrace it as they experience genuine acceptance and emotional freedom. Whether you're working with a 4-year-old or a 14-year-old, the core conditions that Carl Rogers identified still apply. This episode is an encouragement to trust the model, challenge your own adulthood bias, and confidently offer child-centered play therapy to older children who need it just as much as their younger peers.

Fr. Wiley addresses Jesus' frustration with a world that prefers its own biases and expectations over God's actual vision, offering a powerful invitation to abandon individualistic mindsets and join "Team Heaven" through humility, selflessness, and finding true rest in Him.

In this episode, I answer a question about working with a young child who repeatedly tries to leave the playroom during the first few sessions of therapy. Whether the child says they need to see their parent, use the bathroom, or simply can't stay in the room, I explain why these behaviors are often rooted in anxiety, a need for control, and difficulty with emotional regulation—not a true desire to end the session. I walk through how to establish and enforce limits around staying in the playroom while remaining deeply empathic and accepting of the child's experience. I also discuss why consistency is essential when working with anxious children, how holding firm boundaries actually creates safety, and why giving in to escape behaviors unintentionally reinforces the child's anxiety. This episode offers practical guidance for managing "runners" in child-centered play therapy while reminding us that our role is to stay calm, trust the process, and help children discover that they are capable of working through difficult emotions without escaping them.

In this episode, I answer a question about working with children who are being raised in nontraditional family systems, including homes where grandparents or other caregivers play a significant parenting role. I explore the unique challenges that arise when one caregiver embraces child-centered play therapy principles while others continue using more traditional parenting approaches. Rather than viewing these differences as obstacles, I share practical strategies for bringing everyone into the conversation, including involving extended family in parent consultations, using CPRT as a shared learning experience, and helping caregivers understand that they all want the same outcome—a more emotionally healthy, regulated child. I also discuss why consistency matters, but perfection isn't required. When one caregiver faithfully models CCPT principles over time, those attitudes and responses often begin to "bleed" into the rest of the family system. I explain how the therapist can serve as the educator, reducing tension between family members while advocating for the child and the therapeutic process. This episode is full of practical ideas for helping families navigate multigenerational parenting dynamics without losing sight of the healing power of child-centered play therapy.

I talk about the death of this sweet child and who is and may not be at fault.  

In this episode of the CCPT Mythbusters series, I tackle one of the most widely accepted assumptions in children's mental health today: that diagnosing and medicating children is the best path to helping them. I explain why child-centered play therapists often find themselves working against systems that prioritize labels and prescriptions before fully understanding the whole child. While there are rare situations where diagnosis and medication are appropriate, I challenge the idea that they should be the default response. Instead, I share why CCPT begins with trust—trust in the child, trust in the therapeutic relationship, and trust in the child's innate capacity for growth when the right conditions are provided. I also discuss how to navigate conversations with parents who are considering evaluations or medication, and why I encourage families to pursue a full course of child-centered play therapy before making those decisions whenever appropriate. Drawing on more than two decades of clinical experience, I explain why so many children experience remarkable transformation without diagnoses or medication, and why preserving a child's identity and emotional development should remain at the center of our work. This episode offers practical talking points and reinforces the role of the CCPT therapist as a compassionate advocate for the whole child. Podcast Meetups! Come hang out with me.

Every organization is in a race to adopt artificial intelligence. Few are asking the more important question: are our people ready to work alongside it? The organizations that will win the next decade are not the ones with the most advanced technology — they are the ones with the culture strong enough to absorb, adapt to, and leverage it.   AI does not fail because of the algorithm. It fails because of the humans around it — the ones who resist it, misuse it, or never trusted the organization enough to embrace it in the first place. Culture is what determines whether AI becomes a force multiplier or an expensive distraction. In this session, we will examine the relationship between organizational culture and AI adoption, and make the case that investing in culture is not the soft alternative to investing in technology — it is the prerequisite.   In this episode: Meagan Bond, Tom Bradshaw, Nic Kruegar, Rich Cruz, Dr. Emi Barresi, Imani Nakyanza   I/O Career Accelerator Course: https://www.seboc.com/job Visit us https://www.seboc.com/ Follow us on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/sebocLI Join an open-mic event: https://www.seboc.com/events   References:   Boston Consulting Group.

With no background in fiber but a calling to help women in need, Diana Wiley built a thriving organization on handspun yarn, needlefelted gorillas, and a holistic community for over 200 women. Stepping into the Handspun Hope booth at a fiber festival feels like entering a luxury boutique filled with natural fibers, colorful yarns, handmade buttons, and whimsical sculptures. It would be easy to enjoy the offerings without wondering about the company's name—not only “handspun” (yes, the yarns on offer have all been spun by hand) but also “Hope.” The proceeds from everything sold in the booth are returned to women whom the company supports in Rwanda. A decade after the bloody genocide in Rwanda had come to an end, Diana felt called to help the women living in its aftermath. She had volunteered in relief efforts in other parts of Africa, but her thoughts returned again and again to the plight of Rwandan women making their lives in the aftermath of HIV, extreme poverty, and the long shadow of conflict. Connecting with a former colleague who directed World Relief in Rwanda, she visited the country in 2007. What she saw moved her so greatly that within two days she had quit her corporate job to devote herself to helping. Diana had no previous experience in yarn, and Rwanda had no local wool culture. Diana wondered if the wool from sheep she came across could be made into yarn, but the first samples she sent to fiber experts weren't suitable for spinning. She found a handful of Merino rams from an failed government breeding project in the country, imported a group of Merino ewes from Kenya, and Handspun Hope began their handspinning program. Once the sheep were found, the group had to develop spinning skills, first with handspindles and eventually with spinning wheels, and the women learned to dye the yarn with plants. They have added angora rabbits and yarns, too. Women also sculpt the group's wool into imaginative ornaments and sculptures by needlefelting. Through the Hope Artisan Collective, the organization buys yarns and finished items from several fair trade women's groups across Africa. The group is based not far from the habitat of the famous silverback gorillas that attract tourists from around the world, and high-end gift shops in the area sell the group's needlefelted gorilla sculptures. With income from the fiber and other goods, Handspun Hope not only pays their workers an above market wage, they also offer medical care, early childhood care, and a daily meal for their staff's young family members. Although about half of the organization's budget comes from donations, Diana emphasizes that the goal is to cultivate the women's ability to support themselves through meaningful work. Diana is proudest of helping the women of Handspun Hope build the lives that they wish for—like Rosa, their oldest member at age 92, who realized her dream of owning a pig. Each day, before arriving at the organization's campus, she visits her granddaughter's house to see the pig that she purchased through the work of her own hands.

That exhaustion that lingers months — even years — after treatment ends has a name: cancer-related fatigue. And for too long, survivors were simply told to live with it. This week, Jen sits down with Dr. Jessa Landmann, a naturopathic doctor and integrative oncology specialist in Calgary who works right alongside oncology teams to support the whole person. Her brand-new book, Beyond Cancer Fatigue: A Path to Reclaiming Energy, is the first resource devoted entirely to this overlooked struggle — and it's packed with evidence-based, do-it-today tools. Jen and Dr. Jessa get into why fatigue lingers long after the bell is rung, the surprising link between estrogen loss and brain fog in breast cancer survivors, and why healing is an active process, not a waiting game. In this episode: What a naturopathic doctor actually does — and how integrative care fills the gap conventional oncology doesn't have time for Why acupuncture is one of the most researched complementary therapies for pain The one supplement endorsed by ASCO for fatigue (hint: it's an adaptogen) The shocking stat on muscle loss after chemo — and why creatine, HMB, and resistance training matter Cutting through nutrition confusion: why carbs aren't the enemy and under-eating backfires The truth about motivation: action comes first, motivation follows Dr. Jessa's "movement menu," starting with the Barely There list for your lowest-energy days How estrogen loss drives brain fog, weight changes, and disrupted sleep What caregivers need to understand about invisible fatigue Healing the physical, emotional, and spiritual — and giving yourself grace along the way About the guest: Dr. Jessa Landmann is a naturopathic doctor and integrative oncology specialist based in Calgary, with nearly 15 years supporting people through cancer.

What does it look like when someone making $10 million a year calls you and says, "Get me out of here"? For Alan Guarino, Vice Chairman of CEO and Board Services at Korn Ferry, it happens more than you'd think — and it's exactly what pushed him to write The Greatness Code: The Formula Behind Unstoppable Success. Alan has spent decades at the intersection of executive search, C-suite coaching, and talent strategy. He's seen it all: brilliant people in toxic environments, leaders who suck the oxygen out of every room, and — on the other end of the spectrum — a rare few whose leadership style is genuinely awe-inspiring. That range of experience is precisely what gives him the standing to write about greatness, and it's what makes this conversation so grounded. Peter and Alan start with a question that doesn't get asked enough: why would someone at Alan's level — running a globally dominant practice, advising Fortune 500 boards — invest serious time in writing a book and building a public voice? The answer is practical and principled at once. Thought leadership isn't a side hustle for people like Alan; it's a core part of how you stay relevant, how you earn trust before you're even in the room, and how you differentiate in a world full of smart people doing similar work. One of the sharpest moments in the conversation comes when Alan offers what he calls his "secret sauce" — the one thing all top 1% professionals have in common. It's not pedigree. It's not a particular skill set. It's the ability to be impressive, authentically. And as Peter quickly unpacks, there's a right way and a wrong way to do that. The blowhard keynote speaker reads as exposure. The quiet practitioner whose work speaks for itself reads as visibility. Alan knows the difference firsthand. The conversation also covers the lifecycle of thought leadership — from white papers and CNBC appearances to publishing with Wiley — and what intellectual curiosity has to do with all of it. Alan's advice to younger professionals considering this path is unusually direct: if the idea of documenting, sharing, and defending a point of view doesn't excite you, find a different career. If you're a practitioner in professional services trying to figure out how ideas scale your business — or a leader trying to stay on track in a difficult environment — this one's for you. Three Key Takeaways: • There's a leadership crisis hiding in plain sight at the top of organizations. Alan regularly hears from executives earning $700K–$30M who are miserable — not because of the work, but because of their leaders. The problem isn't exclusive to middle management; it runs all the way to the C-suite. • The top 1% of professionals share one defining trait: they find a way to be impressive authentically. It's not about self-promotion or personal branding for its own sake — it's about doing the work at such a level that the conclusion becomes obvious. The key word is authentically; people see through anything else immediately. • Thought leadership isn't separate from your day job — it is your day job. Alan frames intellectual curiosity, documentation, and sharing a point of view as professional obligations, not extras. The analogy he uses is sharp: a plumber who never walks the supply store aisles ends up with outdated tools. The same applies to any practitioner who stops engaging with the evolving ideas in their field. Enjoyed this episode? Check out Episode 471 with Raoul Davis. Alan talked about how thought leadership builds credibility and puts you at the front of the line with clients. Raoul Davis goes deeper on the strategic side — specifically how executives and CEOs build intentional brand equity that drives real business results. Same audience, same problem, different lens. Worth the hour.

There's no greater joy to see your kids walking in the truth; no greater sorrow to see them abandon it. Yet 66% of 20 year olds will abandon the churches of their teen years. What contributes to this? What can dads do to prevent it? What are the safety nets we can put in place…how can we cultivate openness in our kids…how can we set boundaries and avoid bad influences…how do we effectively nurture and disciple?

In this episode, I answer a question about working with a 7-year-old child with a profound history of neglect, abandonment, foster placements, reunification, and complex attachment trauma. Sixty-six sessions into the therapeutic process, the child continues to demonstrate significant dysregulation, attempts to flee the playroom, intense verbal aggression, and destructive behaviors. I explore why these behaviors are not signs that therapy is failing, but rather evidence of the child's desperate need for safety, control, and unconditional acceptance. I also discuss how trauma, attachment disruption, and reunification can create powerful fears of loss that naturally emerge in the playroom. I also offer practical guidance for navigating highly dysregulated sessions, including strategies for managing escape attempts, avoiding power struggles, prioritizing reflections and limit setting, and remaining grounded when external pressure pushes therapists toward more directive interventions. Most importantly, I explain why children with significant attachment wounds often "test" the therapeutic relationship—not to manipulate the therapist, but to discover whether someone will finally remain present, accepting, and trustworthy no matter how difficult things become. This episode is a reminder that some of the most challenging cases require the deepest trust in the child, the process, and the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship.

In this episode, I answer a question about how to handle the end of a play therapy session when a child is deeply engaged in an activity and isn't finished when time runs out. While it's natural to want to help children find closure, complete a project, or avoid frustration, I explain why those desires can subtly shift us away from adherence to the child-centered model. CCPT requires us to trust that whatever happens at the end of a session—even disappointment, frustration, or unfinished work—is therapeutically valuable. I discuss the importance of avoiding therapist agenda, honoring the time limit, and trusting the child's process even when it feels uncomfortable. I also provide practical guidance on end-of-session transitions, including how to use five-minute and two-minute warnings effectively, how to navigate unfinished art projects and games, and how to think through limit-setting when a child refuses to stop playing after time is up. Along the way, I explore why our wording matters, how subtle language choices can reveal drift from the model, and why consistency with limits ultimately helps children learn responsibility, ownership, and self-regulation. This episode is a reminder that some of the most important therapeutic work happens in the moments when things don't go exactly the way either the therapist or the child would prefer.

What if everything you've been told about AI and your job is wrong? Sharon Gai sits down with host and producer Dr. Tom Dutta on The Quiet Warrior Show, and this one is going to stop you in your tracks. Sharon moved to Vancouver at age 7 from China, not speaking a word of English. She hid her dumpling lunches so the other kids wouldn't stare. She hid who she was. Then, 18 years later, she moved back to China for work, only to be told she wasn't Chinese enough. Between those two worlds she forged a philosophy she calls Culture Fluid, and a career at the cutting edge of global AI and commerce. A TEDx speaker. A Wiley author. Named Top AI Voice 2026. Sharon has advised Walmart, LVMH, Coca-Cola, and heads of state. And she's here to say what most people are afraid to: AI doesn't replace jobs. It slices off tasks. And knowing the difference is everything. In this episode you'll discover: ✓  Why being different is your biggest AI advantage, not your liability ✓  How to split your job into 'AI tasks' and 'human tasks' right now ✓  The 'Busy Bee to Beekeeper' shift that changes how leaders think about productivity ✓  What the West is still missing from China's AI playbook ✓  Why doing more with less starts with clarity, not hustle Sharon's new book HOW TO DO MORE WITH LESS (Wiley, March 2026) is out now. This is the conversation the whole world needs. www.sharongai.com #TheQuietWarriorShow #SharonGai #AILeadership #FutureOfWork #DoMoreWithLess #AILiteracy #Leadership #Podcast #Livestream #CultureFluid #Innovation #BusinessStrategy #DrTomDutta #FinalCutPremiere

In this episode of the CCPT Mythbusters series, I tackle one of the most common misconceptions in child-centered play therapy: the belief that therapists have to figure out what a child's play means. Many clinicians feel pressure to identify themes, decode symbolism, interpret behavior, and connect every play sequence to a specific life event or presenting concern. While symbolic and thematic play certainly exist, I explain why understanding the meaning of the play is not what makes CCPT effective. In fact, becoming overly focused on interpretation can pull us out of the moment and away from the very thing that matters most—our presence with the child. I share examples from my own clinical work and discuss why CCPT works even when we don't fully understand what is happening in the playroom. The child is the one doing the work, not the therapist. Our role is not to analyze, diagnose, or solve the play. Our role is to provide the therapeutic relationship and the therapeutic environment while trusting the child's innate capacity for growth. When we become preoccupied with figuring everything out, we risk missing the child's experience entirely. This episode is a reminder that trust—not interpretation—is the foundation of child-centered play therapy.

This week, we analyze the ongoing enforcement of racial terror, deceptive political monuments, and state policy: - The Mississippi Walmart Shooting: We dissect the horrific police shooting in Senatobia, Mississippi, where an officer responding to an alleged shoplifting call fired directly into a vehicle, killing 1-year-old Black child Kohen Wiley. We apply counter-racist logic to deconstruct how the system prioritizes white corporate property over Black lives, scrutinizing the media's language surrounding "suspects" and "theft" to camouflage state-sanctioned infant murder. The Obama Presidential Center Deconstruction: We scrutinize the grand opening of the Obama Presidential Center on Chicago's South Side. Deconstructing the corporate celebration, we deploy fresh investigative data showing that the city's heavily publicized "housing preservation ordinances" were a complete administrative fraud. We break down how $2 million in housing funds sat unspent while real estate developers aggressively price Black residents out of Woodlawn, proving the system uses the image of a Black president as a deceptive marketing tool to execute the economic clearance of Black people. About the Program: - The Context of White Supremacy hosts the Counter-Racist Weekly Review. This broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people.

In this episode of Talk of Fame, Kylie Montigney chats with Nick Bracks! Growing up in one of the most famous political families in Australia, Nick was exposed to life in the public eye since he was 12 years old. Struggling to cope with depression and anxiety through substance abuse, Nick first gained his own notoriety in his early 20s through a publicly documented car crash that nearly killed himself and his best friend. The drunk driving incident became a catalyst for Nick to turn his life around, exposing his mental health issues and allowing him to get the help he desperately needed. The media attention he gained after the crash led to a modelling career and an invitation to participate as a contestant on Dancing With The Stars. While on Dancing With The Stars, Nick took the opportunity to speak publicly about his battle with depression and anxiety, becoming a pioneer in mental health advocacy. Since then, Nick has developed a successful public speaking career on the topic, conducting over 1,000 talks at organisations around the world, including several TEDtalks. The “Neighbours” actor is also a successful entrepreneur, founding Move Your Mind Pty Ltd – a corporate wellness software for employees in construction and similar industries. Nick released his first bookwith publisher Wiley in 2021 and currently runs a podcast under the same name  – Move Your Mind in which is a podcast with the goal of breaking down and exploring the mindset of people who have excelled in careers across a range of industries.Follow Me:Instagram:@Officialkyliemontigney@TalkoffamepodFacebook:OfficialkyliemontigneyTalkoffameTwitter:@Kyliemontigney4About Me:Hi, I'm Kylie!

In this episode, I answer a question about allowing interns, supervisees, and other clinicians to observe child-centered play therapy sessions. I discuss what happened when an intern sat in on a session and unintentionally disrupted the therapeutic process by interacting with the child in a directive manner. Using this scenario as a springboard, I share what I believe are the essential best practices for introducing another person into the playroom, including obtaining permission from both the parent and the child, thoroughly preparing the observer beforehand, and debriefing after the session to help them understand what they observed and why. I also explore how the presence of an observer can impact the therapeutic relationship and the child's behavior. Children may respond differently when a new person enters the room, and it is important that the therapist maintain the alliance with the child while helping the observer understand the philosophy and techniques of CCPT. This episode provides practical guidance for therapists who are training others and serves as a reminder that successful observation experiences depend on preparation, clear expectations, and preserving the integrity of the child-centered relationship.

This week's episode was sparked by a really great question posted in the Veterinary Inventory Management Facebook group, and honestly, it's one I hear all the time: Why are my inventory numbers never accurate, even for something as simple as ear cleaner?If you've ever felt like your inventory is completely out of control and you're not sure where to even start, this one's for you.We dig into the two main "levers" that affect your inventory accuracy in your practice management system: inventory coming in (your receiving process) and inventory going out (how things are sold and deducted). Understanding which lever is the problem is the key to actually fixing it, and it gives you a way to troubleshoot that doesn't feel so overwhelming.Here's what we cover:Why your practice management software might be working against you from the start — and why that's not your faultThe receiving process and why getting it right is the foundation of everything elseHow your item code descriptions can create chaos for your whole team (and what to do about it)The financial impact of inaccurate inventory, including margin erosion and missed chargesHow cycle counts can help you catch problems before they spiral out of controlA simple framework for diagnosing which lever is causing your inventory to be offWhether you're brand new to inventory management or you've been at this for years and still feel stuck, this episode will give you a grounded, practical starting point.Links & Resources Mentioned:

John welcomes back Maya Wiley, president and CEO of the Leadership Council on Civil and Human Rights, to discuss the assault on the nonprofit sector by Donald Trump's Justice Department. Wiley explains why the recent indictment of the Southern Poverty Law Center isn't just baseless and transparently political but part of a broader pattern. She also weighs in on Trump's intent to undermine the midterm elections through bogus claims of fraud, his nomination of Todd Blanche to be Attorney General, and why his DOJ is everything the New York Knicks are not — inglorious, ill-motivated, and screamingly inept.
