In episode 75, Chris and Emma talk with Gordon Smith, Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, coach, poet, and founder of Gifted and Growing in Asheville, NC. Together they explore how authenticity, creativity, and community support the journey of positive disintegration.
Gordon shares how rediscovering his giftedness helped him make sense of his life and deepen his work with clients. We discuss the challenges of unmasking—especially in front of family—and how group spaces can provide safety, resonance, and empowerment.
This conversation explores:
• Gordon’s rediscovery of giftedness and the theory of positive disintegration
• Transforming internalized shame and shedding masks
• The role of community and mirroring in personal growth
• Creativity as a path to authenticity and healing
• His “Magnum Opus” exercise for self-discovery through poetry and flow state
• Reflections on grief, parenting, and nervous system healing
• Why finding language for our experience can be transformative
Gordon’s work highlights how creative practices, safe spaces, and community can help gifted and neurodivergent people step more fully into themselves.
