   During my time working as a Psych Rehab Specialist, I took a Masterclass in Positive Psychology in order to create a comprehensive curriculum for my group members. The original aim of my program, was to help my members to eliminate mental health stigma & help them to cultivate greater flourishing in their lives. On a whim, I decided to reach out through LinkedIn to Dr. Paul Wong, a Canadian Psychologist who I\'d read while my wife & I were in graduate school; Dr. Wong a founding father of what he called: Existential Positive Psychology & /or Positive Psychology 2.0 agreed to connect with me, & later to also virtually mentor me!As the Covid-19 crisis & worldwide pandemic period, seemed to be winding down, & suddenly come to an end I realized, that my curriculum I\'d developed, had great potential import for others, not only those plugged-in to community behavioral health agencies.Speaking with Dr. Wong about my ideas of starting a private practice, he encouraged me, even after I\'d told him, that I wanted to carry his PP2.0 torch forward, with my own flavoring of course! He laughed & said to me,\"I would expect nothing less, than for you to bring your whole self into it Timothy!\" Although, I initially created my Existential Positive Psychology program for my group members; I chose to re-vision it when I started YOUtopia DEVELOPMENT Coaching & Consulting, for men like YOU.YOUtopia DEVELOPMENT is a ministry to men, that offers men holistic formation & guidance to guide men to create holistic flourishing in their lives, so they can be better fathers, better husbands & better men! The BetterYOU Life Integration Journey is created to guide YOU to takeUP Your DEVELOPMENT, usingHolisticFormation & CollaborativeCoaching to both guide & instruct YOU in the arts & sciences of cultivating authentic masculine virtues & lead you in what it really means to become a comprehensive man, AMDG!
