My name is Koi Blue and I\u2019m in my junior year in Psychology. I aspire to become a psychologist, so graduate school is my next step on this journey\u2014although I am still doing my research on schools. Beyond doing well in my courses, I strive to draw connections between my classes and the real world applications I can implement in my everyday life. I&#8217;m hoping this course will help me understand cultures from a psychological perspective to improve interactions in an ever globalized world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#debfbf\">To be transparent, my interest in psychology is a personal one. I have needed therapy (and still do) myself to overcome struggles of growing up in a dysfunctional household. I can say with confidence that if I had not sought therapy and had a professional challenge the toxicity I had grown accustomed to, I would not be as independent, healthy and confident as I am today. The development has been profound and astounding, and a continuing work in progress. I am inspired to give others the tools to improve their quality of life as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-text-color is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"color:#552222\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to my page!
