My goal is to share the parallel journey we as healers walk along with our clients and how we attend to our own humanity while caring for others.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

321 - Dissociative Identity Disorder Is a Brilliant Adaptation with Sally Maslansky
Q: What was the turning point in understanding and healing DID for you?
Key moments include learning about explicit vs implicit memory, witnessing the gradual integration of states through therapy, and realizing that the states were protective rather than simply pathological, which shifted Sally's approach to therapy and self-understanding.
321 - Dissociative Identity Disorder Is a Brilliant Adaptation with Sally Maslansky
Q: Do you want to unpack dissociative identity disorder for us a little bit?
Sally explains how DID was conceptualized by her therapist Dan Siegel as states of mind that are fluid and interconnected, not fixed entities, allowing for a pathway to integration and healing through relationship-based therapy.
The Hidden Cost of Leadership: Sarah Buino on Lonely at the Top
Q: What advice would you give leaders who are afraid to ask for help?
Acknowledge that asking for help is a strength, not a failure. Build small, reliable support structures—mentors, peers, and professional services—so you don't have to shoulder the burden solo. The sooner you normalize reaching out, the more sustainable your leadership becomes.
The Hidden Cost of Leadership: Sarah Buino on Lonely at the Top
Q: What change did you make in your leadership to reduce loneliness and improve your effectiveness?
I built a support network of fellow practice owners, created structured peer sessions, and started delegating more, so I could honor boundaries and reduce the sense that I must carry everything alone. This shift allowed me to lead with steadiness while inviting collaboration and accountability.
The Hidden Cost of Leadership: Sarah Buino on Lonely at the Top
Q: Can you explain why residential treatment became a turning point for you as a leader?
It was about recognizing that my relationship with work and leadership was unsustainable and dangerous for my health. The intensive, immersive environment helped me see how my patterns, like perfectionism and overworking, were driving my pain. It showed that healing isn't a sign of weakness but a strategic move to regain capacity to lead with clarity and compassion.
