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.

Dr. Nadine Macaluso shares the personal story that drove her from wounded ex-wife of the infamous Wolf of Wallstreet to healer. Dr. Nae, as her patients call her, found herself amidst a chaotic divorce after suffering years of abuse. She shares details about her healing journey which fueled her to return to school at 39 years old where she would later learn to transform her pain into purpose. Dr. Nae now owns a private practice in California and New York using somatic-based treatment with a focus on attachment trauma, shame, and Dark Tetrad personalities.
