Show Notes

Casey Lepper is a spiritual guide and healer as well as a psychotherapist specializing in individual and couples counseling. She often integrates the spiritual with the psychological in her work to assist others in moving towards their highest potential. She offers a variety of activation services, classes and training, and healings and readings for spiritual healing and empowerment via her brand Clarity Veil. Casey is also the founder of Austin Counseling Balance, where she works with women, couples, and families. “I love breaking apart human behavior and the human condition to figure out why people do the things that they do,” says Casey. She adds that there is nothing like meeting men and women face-to-face and helping them get to the root of their mental, emotional, and spiritual roadblocks. Casey makes the case that we have a personal responsibility to figure out our own issues. We cannot blame the other person for drawing out negative emotions or making us feel unsafe because, when it comes down to it, that’s an inside job. It’s on us to clean our trauma, burden, pain, or wounds within ourselves, and it’s only from that healed place where we can finally enjoy an ideal, long-lasting relationship. Casey utilizes therapy to uncover those unproductive patterns and the factors that led to the emergence of those patterns. She does this by nurturing a safe, private relationship with her clients so that she can see the situation from their perspective. In her words: “We live so close to ourselves that it’s really hard to know what our patterns are without any reflection, and that’s what a therapist does. Therapy is about reflection, and that means showing someone the things they don’t want to see.” Casey unravels the DNA of healthy relationships and offers advice on how to move towards our highest potential, including: ● why supportive relationships are the foundation to a rich and purposeful life ● how to take responsibility for our own issues and clear our trauma ● what to look for in a new relationship and how to best prepare yourself ● how utilizing the Gottman Method leads to healthier relationships ● the gifts that masculine and feminine energy uniquely bring to the relationship ● how to support a parent or older relative struggling with trauma One of the greatest things that can happen for us in life is to find a partner that is along for the same ride, who is keen on growing as a person right by your side. But, as Casey proves in this conversation, finding the right partner starts with taking responsibility for our own personal development.
