In this episode of Street Psychology Podcast, host LaSylvia sits down with Mamina Das, a registered behavior technician and host of the Holistic Conversations Podcast. Mamina shares her inspiring journey from working as a radio host in Canada to finding her true calling in applied behavior analysis with children on the autism spectrum.

Discover why Mamina believes in leading with the heart rather than just the mind, and how unconditional love shapes her approach to working with children and families from diverse backgrounds. She opens up about the challenges of finding work that doesn't leave you exhausted, the importance of non-judgment in therapeutic relationships, and how observing an ABA therapist in her preschool classroom changed the trajectory of her career.

This conversation explores:

The power of unconditional love in working with children with autism

Finding your path by listening to your internal compass

The difference between working from the heart versus working from the mind

How connection through shared human experiences—grief, joy, anger—brings us together

Transitioning from teaching 17 preschoolers to one-on-one therapeutic work

The holistic approach to mind, body, and spirit in caregiving

Whether you're in the helping professions, searching for meaningful work, or simply interested in the human connection, this episode reminds us that life is a journey and we all need to find our own street.
