SoulTalk with Kute Blackson

How are you? A simple question, yet at times, finding the right answer can be challenging.

In this week’s special episode of The SoulTalk Podcast, I invited Dr. Nicole LePera, a clinical psychologist, author, and advocate for holistic wellness. Driven by her passion to integrate mental, physical, and spiritual well-being, she developed a unified philosophy, holistic psychology. She also initiated the #SelfHealers Movement, a global community empowering individual to take charge of their healing journey.

Today, Dr. Nicole shares her psychological journey of transitioning from traditional to holistic psychology. Also, she shares her latest book, How to Be the Love You Seek where she delves into how her holistic approach can lead to healing relationships.

So, if you’re looking for some key insights on how to get out from that feeling of being stuck and wanting to embrace the potential for change, manage pain, and break free from habitual patterns of fear, this episode is for you! Discover practical tips about parenting, addressing feelings of unworthiness, and maintaining authenticity in both life and social media.
