Congratulations Indya!!

"I passed my exam- Woohoo!!!! When I first found out I had to take the exam, I felt majorly unprepared and very scared. I have ADHD so studying has always been very difficult for me. I am so happy I found this course, it gave me the exact framework I needed to feel confident taking this exam. Passed on the first try baby!" - Indya Markovic

While presenting at the Inaugural Global Systemic Therapy Summit in Nairobi, Kenya, I had the opportunity to visit one of the world’s leading elephant rescue centers.

I witnessed something unforgettable.

When an elephant is in distress, others gather in close.
They don’t rush in with solutions. Instead, they offer comfort, gentle touch, proximity, and presence.

It was a beautiful and embodied reminder of something I teach often:
Tend to the emotional issues first, before attempting to solve the practical problem.

This applies in therapy, in parenting, and in every relationship that matters.
Sometimes, what’s needed most isn’t a plan - it’s connection.

🎥 In this short clip, I share what elephants can teach humans about co-regulation and the power of comfort.

As I was planning my summer trip to Nairobi, I came across something truly uplifting — the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust.

They rescue orphaned baby elephants and rhinos who’ve been affected by drought, conflict, or poaching.

With great care and dedication, they nurse these little ones back to health and help them return to the wild.

I found myself deeply moved — and honestly, hopeful.

In a world that often feels overwhelming, seeing this kind of dedication was a needed reminder of human goodness.

I adopted Wamata, a newly rescued baby elephant, and plan to adopt more during my trip with MFT students from United States International University this summer.

What surprised me most? Several friends and colleagues in L.A. already follow their site just to lift their spirits on a tough day.

If you could use an additional dose of joy, take a look at their stories and maybe even adopt a baby elephant yourself.

Wishing you moments of unexpected inspiration!
