In this episode, Susan Brown joins us to discuss change from a transformative perspective. With her help, we dissect change as the creator of new experiences, an opportunity to be appreciative and grateful, and how change motivates us to create our connection with people and nature. Susan is a Mental Health Counselor and Brain Injury Specialist; she owns Boulder Semita Counseling, a private practice where she helps communities through a person-centered, humanistic, transpersonal lens. 

Throughout this episode, Susan shares her overview on change and transformation, the importance of examining stability, stability as an illusion, and how community and connection can be an antidote to coping with the effects of change. We also talk about the healing nature of humor, the need for predictability and novelty, and valuable resources on these topics.

Since "change is the only constant in life," focusing on acceptance makes much more sense than seeking stability.
