Media consulting, while only a fraction of my work as a psychologist, has helped me grow and develop so much this year. Disseminating psychological science is accomplished in many ways - Highlighting just a few here as I look back on the year 😍

Writing about Miles Morales deepened my own reflections about thwarted belongingness, not fitting in, the in-betweenness some of us face in our search to matter in our world. I'm grateful I got to write this piece about Spider-Man and his journey to becoming a hero: www.fandom.com/articles/psy...
