It is my great pleasure to present Dr. Nicole LePera, this week’s incomparable guest on The Life Stylist Podcast. Nicole, known as The Holistic Psychologist, leads the SelfHealers Movement, an international community of people joining together to take healing into their own hands – which, after all, is what this show is all about, right?

She’s inspired millions through her social media presence, bringing ancient knowledge to a digital world. She's also the author of the New York Times bestseller, How to Do the Work, and a thoughtful new workbook to help people apply her tools in their lives.

It’s called How to Meet Yourself: A Workbook for Self-Discovery, and it drops today!

Now, this is one hell of an interview – I'm going to warn you – in the best way possible. We cover so much ground in the realm of psychology, mental and emotional wellbeing, that you’ll be scribbling notes in no time.
