  • Jerry Hall: Thomas' Desire
    May 18 2023

    Jerry Hall and Allison Frye discussed their experiences with mental health, their children, and Thomas's Desire, a short story about Jerry's son Thomas, who was born profoundly deaf and autistic and was able to get his driver's license. Jerry also shared his mission to provide hope and strategies to people so they can make their goals and dreams come true. They also discussed their pets and the importance of Autism Awareness Month. Jerry and his wife had to learn sign language and find resources to help Thomas thrive. Jerry now runs the New Millennial Success Academy to help others reach their goals and change their lives.

    Jerry Hall and his wife supported their family through adversity, and his son Thomas achieved his goal of getting a driver's license despite everyone thinking it was impossible. Through hard work and determination, Thomas was able to buy a car and get his license, inspiring Jerry to write a story about it and start his Success Academy.

    Jerry Hall discussed how his son's success inspired him to redefine his definition of success and create a guide for others to follow. He identified eight key commonalities that can help people become successful, such as developing a strong desire, having faith, positive self-talk, making a definite decision, specialized knowledge, a plan, persistence, and a mastermind group.

    Jerry Hall discussed his experience with his son Thomas and how it changed his life and the lives of his family. He encourages people to focus on their own lives and make a positive impact in their own small part of the world. He also discussed the importance of giving more than taking.

  • Phyllis Leavitt: Author of "America in Therapy"
    Apr 5 2023

    Phyllis Leavitt and Allison Frye discussed the topics of Phylli's upcoming book, "America in Therapy," which looks at how the dynamics of the country mirror abuse, family dynamics, and how the issues have been presented as political and ideological but are actually mental health issues. They also discussed the need to own the difficult truths of history and the disconnect between what people want for themselves and what they vote for.

    Phyllis Leavitt is a psychotherapist with a Masters in Counseling and Psychology who has been in private practice for over 30 years. She has written two books and is currently writing a third about the influence of families on the development of individuals and how the principles of good psychotherapy can help heal the human relations in the US. She has noticed that people are coming to therapy traumatized by what's going on in the country and that the disconnect between what people want and the government's agenda is alarming.

    Allison Frye suggests that mental health should be a national agenda, with resources funneled into it, to create an environment that can support healthy families. She also suggests that good psychotherapy is necessary to heal from trauma but that resources are not always available to everyone. Finally, she suggests that mental health should be taught in schools, with programs like More Than Sad, to recognize and address mental health issues.

    Phyllis Leavitt and Allison Frye discussed the importance of mental health education and how it can help shift the paradigm of how people view mental health. They also discussed the need for more resources to be put into mental health initiatives and how media can help to destigmatize mental health issues.
