Do you want to cultivate resilience in your life and work? 

In this episode, host Christy Pennison welcomes a special guest, Ernesto Segismundo, as they dive deep into fulfillment, spirituality, and the challenges of being an entrepreneur in the mental health field.

Ernesto shares his own transformative journey, ignited by the sudden passing of his mother, which made him reflect on his life and the choices he had been making. Through seeking spiritual connection and challenging limiting beliefs, Ernesto found the courage to break free from cultural expectations and live with fulfillment.

As a trained EMDR therapist, Ernesto shares his insights into the entrepreneurial mindset and how the flood of ideas can sometimes create a bottleneck effect, leading to fear and imposter syndrome. He shares practical strategies to overcome this stagnant state.

Christy and Ernesto also discuss the importance of resilience and how encountering difficult situations can shape one’s personal and professional growth. They emphasize the significance of staying true to oneself, living in alignment with values, and the power of giving oneself permission to repel people and honor personal boundaries.

Throughout the episode, Ernesto and Christy engage touch upon the significance of not taking things personally in the mental health community and the importance of recognizing when a therapist may be feeling drained by a client.

Once you become your authentic self, you will repel people and you will attract others.
