Life is hard. But it gets a whole lot easier when you start to talk it out. In How Am I Doing?, you're invited into a series of conversations with yourself to improve your mental health as you discover your purpose, honor your story, and explore who you want to be.

Dr. Corey Yeager, mental wellness consultant for the United Football League (UFL) and recently featured on Oprah and Prince Harry's The Me You Can't See on Apple TV+, offers you 40 questions to help you raise awareness of your thoughts and emotions and reconnect with who you want to be.

Over the course of these 40 conversations with yourself, you're invited to:

  • Build trust with yourself
  • Consider how past traumas affect your life today
  • Grow a practice of positive self-talk
  • Let go of guilt and regret from your past
  • Develop mental health strategies for what to for moments when you're depressed or anxious
  • Increase your confidence and embrace your emotions

Each of the 40 questions is paired with a short, thoughtful reflection from Dr. Yeager, along with prompts and self-care strategies to help you look at yourself in the mirror and come into alignment with who you want to be.

So join the conversation; nothing is off-limits here. Come check in with yourself and take these small, simple steps to journey toward a more honest and harmonious way of living.

About the Author

Best known for his appearance on Harry and Oprah's The Me You Can't See on Apple TV+, Dr. Corey Yeager is a licensed marriage and family therapist at the doctoral level, focusing his therapeutic practice primarily on serving the African American community. Dr. Yeager holds a bachelor of arts degree in psychology from Metropolitan State University, a master of arts degree in psychotherapy from Argosy University, and a PhD in family social science from the University of Minnesota. His research centers on better understanding the plight of African American relationships and educating service organizations to encourage meaningful change in those relationships.

Yeager served as the psychotherapist for the Detroit Pistons for five seasons. He is working within the merging of his two cornerstone passions: athletics and therapy. In his current role as a consultant for the United Football League (UFL), he supports the overall mission of the league while also working with players and coaches to build cohesiveness.

As Dr. Yeager has facilitated meaningful dialogue on the subject of race and racism, he has had "courageous conversations" about that across the country. Outside of the NBA and UFL, some of his clients include The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN), The Smithsonian Institute, the University of Southern California, WonderMind, The Gersh Agency, and Lola Red. He is also a part of the Engage Speakers Bureau based in Los Angeles.
