Warren Tews is a Registered Provisional Psychologist and a member in good standing with the College of Alberta Psychologists, Psychologists' Association of Alberta, and the Canadian Psychological Association. He holds an undergraduate degree in Psychology from King’s University and a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from City University of Seattle.
Warren’s talk is titled “Know Thyself: Personality and Happiness,” and explores current and past psychological research around happiness, personality factors, and strategies for maximizing life-satisfaction. His primary goal when working with people is to provide them with a wealth of self-knowledge and in turn help them position themselves in the best possible circumstances to increase their overall life-satisfaction and moods of happiness.
He is affectionately known as 'Jimmy the Guitar Player' and has made several appearances on the Beat your Genes Podcast with Dr. Doug Lisle, including arranging and performing an acoustic version of the show's theme song to commemorate Episode 200, and playing a Michael Jackson parody cover about the repeat exposure effect in episode 230.
Warren’s primary clinical interests include anxiety and panic disorders, family conflict resolution, dating, depression and mood disorders, procrastination, process addictions, productivity, relationships, self-esteem, social-skills coaching, navigating friendship difficulties, loneliness in the modern age, men's issues, work-related challenges, and helping to improve one's standing in life's competitive processes.
Outside of his psychology practice, Warren offers educational and personality-based life decision coaching through his Inner (R)evolution brand at www.inner-revo...

Chef AJ, where can we see your travel list? How do we find a nearby town where you will be promoting your book?

[@philomenaohalloran6860]

The very loud video clips are really annoying

[@vickytudehope629]

AJ do you ship to Australia 🇦🇺 😊

[@CHEFAJ]

Is there an Amazon in Australia? The local bookstore in the first link may if you’re willing to pay shipping.
