  • Beyond “Normal”: Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy with Joel Schwartz
    This week on the Mind Bod Adventure Pod, we sit down with Dr. Joel Schwartz, a psychologist and one of the early architects of the Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy movement. Joel is known for speaking truth to systems that pathologize difference — and for offering a way of working with our minds that’s healing, joyful, and radically humane.In this episode, we explore:* Why the “pathology model” of ADHD and autism misses the point* The emotional toll of masking and code-switching to survive* What actually helps when someone is overstimulated (spoiler: not deep breathing)* Reclaiming movement, joy, and the right to stim without shame* An unexpected practice that ends in synchronized swaying and yodel-singing!Joel brings brilliance, humor, and zero tolerance for the rigid norms that ask neurodivergent folks to contort themselves into “acceptable” versions of humanity.Along the way, Tasha reflects on late-diagnosed spectrum-y traits, Jeff gets real about rejection sensitivity, and we all momentarily dissolve into giggles about somatic intelligence and… mosh pits.✨This episode is both a call to arms and a warm hug — a guide to seeing difference not as deficit, but as creative, embodied, meaningful expression.We make this show with love, laughter, and absolutely no corporate overlords.

  • Learning to Relate with James-Olivia Chu Hillman

  • The Science of Happiness with Axel Bouchon
    What if happiness wasn’t just a feeling but something you could train and reinforce?This week on MindBod AdventurePod, we sit down with Dr. Axel Bouchon, a neuroscientist and biotech entrepreneur who spent 20 years searching for a cure for depression—only to realize he’d been asking the wrong question.
