Overcoming Difficult Emotions & His Path to Purpose and Acceptance with Aaron Gilbert
What does it really mean to be well—and how do we get there? This week, we're taking a deep dive into the practical side of mental and emotional well-being with a true veteran of the field.
Join us for a powerful conversation with Aaron Gilbert, founder of Boston Evening Therapy Associates, who has spent 25 years helping tens of thousands of people live more constructively. In this episode, Aaron cuts through the noise and shares his definition of "good therapy," explaining what truly works both inside and outside the session.
He unpacks incredibly valuable concepts that you can apply to your own life, including:
- The profound difference between happiness and satisfaction.
- How to live constructively with difficult emotions rather than running from them.
- Why all relationships—and your mental health—are an "inside game."
- An introduction to his simple, yet powerful "Purpose, Acceptance, and Clarity" (PAC) model for single-session coaching.
If you've ever felt stuck or wondered if there's a better way to navigate life's challenges, this is a must-listen. Tune in for your mental health break and get ready to shift your perspective.
