Episode #14 / Dr. Sarah Sarkis, Psychologist, Writer & Performance Consultant - a podcast by Gameday Media Enterprises

Megan talks today with Sarah Sarkis, a licensed psychologist and writer who helps break complex mental health situations into more understandable experiences for those outside the profession via her blog, The Padded Room. She talks about the ludicrousness of us being expected to make life decisions in our 20's as well as the importance of taking any next step so we don't get stuck. She has done interesting work on discovering how our brain comes "online", meaning how the two hemispheres of our brain develop and learn to integrate and what that means for how we experience the world. Sarah has seen a pattern with her clients of the connection between mind, brain, and body, and why it matters to treat all three components. One interesting insight she shared was that her first step with her clients is to help them just observe what is happening to them. There is incredible power and information obtained only in the observation.
