"It's not about what happens to you it's about how you respond when hard stuff happens" - Dr Julie SmithAfter practicing as a Clinical Psychologist for over a decade, Dr Julie Smith decided it was her mission to make high quality and engaging mental health education more accessible online. So she started using TikTok as a platform for therapy. A year and a bit later, Julie has built a following of over 3 million as an online educator. In the conversation we talk about her success as a creator as well as deep diving into some of my favourite chapters from her brand new book 'Why Did Nobody Tell Me This Before?' which takes a scientific approach to topics like motivation, self doubt, identity and what it means to live a meaningful life.🔗 CONNECT WITH JULIE 📕 Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? 📱TikTok 📸 Instagram 💻 Website 🎥 YouTube Channel 🐦 Twitter 🔗 CONNECT WITH ALI🎥 YouTube Channel🐦 Twitter📸 Instagram💻 Website👥 LinkedinFind the show notes and the transcript on the website: https://aliabdaal.com/podcast/Sponsored by BrilliantThis episode is kindly supported by Brilliant, the best way to learn maths, science and computer science online.
