Every life is valuable, every voice deserves to be heard, and every struggle matters. Suicide prevention is not just about saving lives; it’s about raising awareness, breaking the silence, and letting people know they are not alone.
Mental health challenges affect so many of us—directly or indirectly - but too often, they are met with stigma or misunderstanding. By starting conversations, educating ourselves, and creating spaces where people feel safe to reach out, we can make a real difference. We can offer hope when it feels lost.

You do not need anybody's permission to live a creative life. Elizabeth Gilbert
Creativity does not come through linear thinking, but it requires courage to walk the untrodden path.
Unlocking your creative potential may seem like a daunting task, but the key lies in embracing non-linear thinking. By breaking free from the constraints of linear organizational systems and allowing yourself to explore ideas without the pressure of immediate action, you can unleash a wealth of creativity and productivity.
However, it is not easy to defy norms and logic and embrace non-linear thinking. Even if the path is shorter, going against the flow demands extra effort and dedication.
In this episode Perry and I will uncover the principles behind non-linear thinking, its profound impact on personal and professional development, and practical strategies to integrate this mindset into your daily life.

Guest Speaker: Bret Packard
Every day, we are bombarded with data, opinions, and news from countless sources, making it easy for our minds to become numb and to accept information at face value. In this environment, the ability to discern, analyze, and evaluate information critically is not just beneficial—it’s essential.
Critical thinking empowers us to sift through the noise, identify what is truly relevant, and make informed decisions that are based on evidence and sound reasoning. Without it, we risk falling prey to misinformation, cognitive biases, and manipulative tactics that can lead to poor decision-making.
Bret Packard is the proponent of Critical Thinking. Packard’s teachings highlights that critical thinking is not just a skill but a mindset—one that allows individuals to approach challenges with clarity, creativity, and confidence.

Guest Speaker: Andrew Mercein
For centuries, mental health disorders have been linked with negative perceptions worldwide. Societies as far back as the Neolithic era considered mental illness to be something nefarious, often seen as a moral punishment or the result of evil spirits. These beliefs frequently led to brutal treatments rather than efforts to understand the conditions.
Increasing awareness of mental health not only helps society work towards eliminating stigma but also has broader benefits. For example, a deeper understanding of mental illness can help people recognize when those around them might be dealing with anxiety, depression, orother conditions affecting their well-being. It can also lead to self-realization, allowing individuals to identify and address their own mental health issues.
In this episode, Andrew and I will discuss why spreading awareness about mental health is essential for creating a supportive and understanding society.

Guest Speaker: Barbara Vokatis
In many countries, the education system still follows an orthodox approach that dates back 300 to 400 years. With the rapid advancements in technology, it is high time we adopt creative ways of learning.
Creative learning experiences fundamentally change the way learners approach problems. They become more imaginative and innovative, and they cope better when they don't know the answer. Creative learners start visualizing alternatives or possibilities from different perspectives, enhancing their problem-solving skills and adaptability.
In this episode, Dr. Barbara and I will discuss how we can foster creative learning.

Faith is the basic element intertwined with the human psyche. Jung believed that religion was a natural expression of the collective unconscious.According to him, God is a psychological construct, reflecting an image of our Self.
Recently, the president of the American Psychological Association, Dr. Thema Bryant, pointed out that Faith is an integral part of the practice and research of clinical psychology.
A basic finding is that religion supports people’s need to feel personal control over events in their lives and reduces anxiety in the face of events that are out of their control or that simply do not meet their expectations.
Kelley Tyan explored a similar concept in her book One Prayer. In this episode, Kelley and I will discuss the psychological aspect of Faith and its importance in our lives.
