We talk with special guest Dr. Tina Vitolo (the black sheep therapist) about overcoming negative self views. Dr. Tina and I met when we started a doctorate program at FAU where we shared many moments of doubt and triumph. We carry so many of our childhood beliefs about school into our adult lives. It's tough to let them go! Dr. Tina can be found on instagram @the_black_sheeptherapist,
