The Mindful Corner Podcast

Hosted by clinical psychologist Dr. Erika Velez, The Mindful Corner is a series of candid conversations with everyday individuals from all walks of life–single parents, college students, career professionals, roaming travelers, and more–who share stories in the hopes that we can earn from each other and, simultaneously, grow together. Have you ever experienced a moment in your life that felt isolating and hopeless? Did you wish you could connect with someone who was dealing with the same emotions you felt? Although our experiences as individuals may be unique, there's far more that we have in common than what separates us. The Mindful Corner will be our place to have authentic and raw conversations about the human experience while discussing the gift of mindfulness and how we can all benefit from some time in a mindful corner.

Christian is a former professional athlete turned confidence & mindset coach and motivational speaker. When his career in sports came to an end, so did his identity and purpose. He didn't know who he was nor what else he could offer to the world. After years of struggling to become a working actor and rigorously training and applying to become a fighter--both of which ended in failure--he finally found his calling and something that made him want to get out of bed every day: helping other men battle through the same struggles he has battled. Christian is on a mission to put the outdated and often damaging cultural expectations of masculinity under a microscope in order to help men feel that it's okay to be exactly who they are, even if it doesn't fulfill all the manly expectations. He shares his story and his fears, failures and insecurities openly in the hopes that he will inspire other men to do the same.
