The American Psychological Association designated April 17 - April 23, 2022 as Psychology Week to spread awareness of how psychology benefits our world. In this episode, I discuss my love and passion for my work as a psychologist.  I also share the perspectives of some of my colleagues in the field of psychology who share in the passion of contributing to the body of psychological research and knowledge; delivering practical information, tools, and strategies; and honoring and serving the diverse voices, cultures, and populations around our globe.  I asked the questions: What do you LOVE about your work? And what show are you currently binge watching?!! Tune in to hear the answers from psychologists: Kristin Bertsch, Stephen Sell, Shalena Heard, Sepideh Soheilian, Val Spektor, David Zelaya, Linh Luu; as well as the Visionistas Team: Hannah Bennett, Aliya Kenyatta, and Vicky Alercia.
