Level Up Your Life! GKSP101 #006: Boonie Sripom

I’m glad I’ve gotten to know today’s guest on the show. We’ve been following each other on Instagram, and I recently discovered that we’re in the same Facebook group. We’ve bonded over our work and service with twice-exceptional individuals, and we have much more in common, too. I’m excited to introduce you to her! Boontarika Sripom is a therapy-influenced life coach for gifted and creative people. Her background includes school counseling, working in special education, and community mental health. As a life coach and sensitive person, she uses psychology and typology systems like Myers Briggs and enneagrams to help people empower themselves and reach their potential. Her favorite clients are creatives, gamers, and sensitive people who feel misunderstood. Boonie makes online content on Quora and YouTube. On Mixer, she streams video gaming while chatting with fellow gamers. Show Highlights:  How Boonie is intensely passionate about championing causes like world hunger, her connection to nature, art, kids with special needs, and video game culture Boonie’s connection to mental health advocacy and how she connects gamers and the geek community to therapists through the non-profit, Anxiety Gaming Boonie’s personal brand of intensity is to challenge “normal” and to pair with a greater cause Why Boonie believes that “injustice for one is injustice for all” How Boonie is messy and scattered at home but portrays a different picture in public How Boonie has an insatiable need to learn Growing up, Boonie misunderstood social cues, didn’t have many friends, and was naive and trusted people too much Why Boonie’s collectivist upbringing taught her that showing emotional pain is sign of weakness; she learned to be strong and push through any pain In Boonie’s first year of college, Boonie’s friend committed suicide, leaving her with PTSD; this experience intensified her mistrust that anyone could help her How she sought connection in emotionally-abusive relationships and kept losing herself and staying silent How Boonie’s intensity got out of control with her insatiable need to learn, and her compulsion to buy books and hoard them Why she had to honor her childhood playfulness and the needs that weren’t met How Boonie uses her fire for good in speaking, questioning things, uplifting others, and constructing spaces for connection A habit that helps Boonie harness the power of her intensity is to know the right people who accept and embrace her How she helps others with their archetypes and how they seek and process information Final words of advice from Boonie: “Everything you need is already there. Reclaim your voice and your identity.”  Resources: Boonie’s website:  Organized Messes Find Boontarika Sripom on YouTube, Instagram, and Quora
