Geek Psychology: Play Life Better

I help geeks and gamers to play life better. As an INFP, I've spent a lot of time trying to understand myself, forcing myself outside of my comfort zone, finding my purpose in life, gaining self-confidence, and learning how to have better relationships. Personality type is one of the main models I use to help clients regain control over their lives, but I also tend to use Neuro-Linguistic Programming and hypnosis as well. Stay awhile and listen!

  • Why Do Some INFPs Create While Others Stay Stuck

    I used to spend endless hours in my head, overthinking every detail of my creative ideas. Each idea seemed more perfect and exciting than the last, but they never saw the light of day.


    As an INFP, I realized that my extraverted intuition made me savor the novelty of ideas, but it also trapped me in a cycle of inaction. I knew I wasn't alone—many of us INFPs see the potential in our ideas but are held back by the fear of imperfection.


    I decided that it was time to break free from this cycle. I learned to embrace imperfection and realized that taking action on my ideas creates more opportunities and satisfaction than keeping them locked in my mind. The truth hit me: imperfect action beats perfect inaction every time.


    I began setting shorter deadlines for myself, which pushed me to take action and not let my ideas go to waste. If you're facing the same struggles, I urge you to take that first step. Share your creativity with the world, and don't be afraid of it being less than perfect. Every creation is a building block to growth and fulfillment.

  • This method will transform your life as an INFP

    Ever feel like you're chasing a moving target with self-development? Like you're trying to do everything right but just not making meaningful progress?


    Many INFPs tell me that they just don't know how to maintain consistency, motivation, and clarity.


    In this video, I dive into why traditional self-help advice often misses the mark and how shifting your perspective can unlock genuine growth. It's not about quick fixes or forcing yourself into a mold that doesn't fit. It's about understanding your unique operating system and working with it, not against it.


    I'll share a different way to approach personal growth, one that feels less like a chore and more like an adventure. We'll explore why chasing external metrics of success can leave you feeling empty and how to tap into what truly motivates you.


    If you're tired of the self-help hamster wheel and ready for a more authentic path to growth, this video is for you.
