Hey Friends,
Happy 2020! This month I have a wonderful guest that I was honored to chat with, Tunteeya Yamaoka, the founder of Ikigai Psychology and an advocate for holistic approaches to mental health. She has such a refreshing perspective when it comes to mental health and I was able to take away so much from our conversation together. I have become increasingly interested in the mind body connection and how our bodies store and process trauma and loved the insight Tunteeya provided with her Psychology education. Along with that, I LOVED how her story included such incredible mentors who supported her along the way (I mean really, what would we do without mentors and coaches!!).
Enjoy this episode and I hope it supports you on your journey!
