6. Malou Geenevasen - Kindness, being an adoptee, a psychotherapist, and having a caring dad who leads by example

Malou Geenevasen (IG: @kindnesstherapy) is a psychotherapist from Amsterdam whose clients include families and kids. Although she was born in Sri Lanka, she was adopted by two caring Dutch parents when she was two weeks old. In this episode, Malou describes her dad as someone kind, reliable, trustworthy, and inquisitive and talks to me about how he embodies these qualities and leads by example. Thanks to his attitude towards always learning new things, Malou also believes that you can always keep learning no matter how old you are.  She also speaks to me about how she challenged herself to do 365 good deeds in one year and as a result, learned that kindness is all around us if we look for it. PS. One of her cats started attacking her indoor plants during our recording, which forced us to take a break.
