You may have heard the term "inferiority complex." You may even have used it multiple times to describe yourself or someone you know. But do you know its origins?
The term was coined by the often-overlooked yet profoundly influential Alfred Adler. While names like Jung and Freud might be more familiar, Adler was right there with them, shaping the psychology landscape.

Hallie's expertise in trauma and mental health and his work with at-risk youth and US veterans adds a unique perspective to this conversation. Join us as we delve into the practical application of Adlerian principles, unearthing timeless wisdom that can change your life.
This episode isn't just about psychology; it's about weaving spiritual insights into the fabric of your daily existence.
Get ready to explore Adlerian psychology and embark on a journey toward a more mindful, purposeful life.
“Different than Jung or different than Freud, which focused primarily on just a pathological approach, [Alfred Adler’s] individual psychology helps you figure out a way of living. It gives your life a purpose, or it helps you identify your purpose. And, personally, I think it leads us on the road to happiness.”
