I was never was a big fan of the small talk culture, so let’s get straight to the point: I am a professional catalyzer. In reality it is called a licensed professional counselor.

The challenging part is not ruining people’s illusions and narratives, it’s walking them through the thin ice of the fear that reclaiming the life they want to live is worth going through the letting go of things they used to comfort themselves with.
