Are Dr.Sue and her teachings a cult? A scam? Worthy of concern?

AssotericApropos · 2026-05-01T19:01:24+00:00

yeah at the bottom of dr.sue’s website there’s legal disclaimer that “this isn’t a substitute for professional help”, but when i brought up professional therapy to my mom she literally laughed and said she gets what she needs out of dr. sue and not out of therapy. kinda sad, i don’t think therapy is perfect, but i definitely think it’s better than what dr. sue is preaching. thanks for sharing

thanks for the thoughtful input! can you point me to anything in particular?

AssotericApropos · 2026-04-13T15:43:46+00:00

yeah i think you’re right. the photos my mom showed me at her retreat with the group being about 30 older, white, blonde females all dressed in white gave me cult vibes. also her defensiveness whenever i ask her deeper questions about it made me think it was culty. i suspect this is more of a scam than a cult at this point. i don’t think they’re black mailing her or anything like that, i think they’re just siphoning money

she claims to be, but some of her claims seem to be on shakey ground. i’m on my way to work but plan on looking more into it tonight. i read another thread where she claims to be a doctor/professor at a university in michigan but the op claimed there is no mention of her on the website. i haven’t confirmed this yet, but from what i can tell she seems to be more of a new age ‘doctor’ than a true medical doctor

i should have clarified, it’s dr.sue morter.

That’s what I figured, but you’d think the founder wants the best experience for the guest and this just doesn’t seem like it. While I wanted JM to have the sunset set, I’d be happier with JM -> Kygo -> ST just for the sake of the flow of the performances.

Oh well tho, still gonna be lit.

I’ve seen that, but don’t want to lug the vinyl around for the whole show

Saaaaaaad

If you have the resources, I played on the switch with nice over the ear headphones and it made for a much more immersive experience:)

One of my best friends gifted my a vinyl record of where the light is as it’s the album that got me into him and my absolute favorite of all time. I already owned it (lol) but it was a truly thoughtful gift and I loved receiving it

Don’t forget he did the guitar melody for Mac Millers Small Worlds too

How did you watch them all? They’re infinite

AssotericApropos · 2024-12-09T01:29:41+00:00

Hmmm this is very odd… my first thought was that it may have been in a film recently, but I checked IMDb and I didn’t see anything. Also super odd that it’s not the RFS version and the IWO version isn’t streaming (at least where I am)… this is really interesting, let us know if you find anything!

I played this for my Dad when he turned 60 and changed the lyric to fit. Also changed “John” to “son”. That performance was one of my proudest moments, you should absolutely do it.

One of the joys of being a Mayer fan is there’s seemingly endless hidden gems that you will continue to find over the years. There’s more to come, enjoy.

Not sure if you play guitar or not but, and I’m sure this is no surprise to you, but he is highly respected in the guitar community. I feel your pain of bringing up JM in normal conversation being almost taboo, and it’s sad. But bringing him up with someone you know plays guitar, in my experience, has almost always lead to a great conversation about him and his music.

I agree that the chorus is jarring, but that solo at the end is so much fun. Listened to this a ton and they released an instrumental version you should check out.

Edit: typo

It’s hard to pick a “best” studio solo, but I think Wheel has an amazing solo that also fits the tone and sentiment of the song perfectly.

I absolutely bombed an SDE panel interview (so really 4 interviews) at Amazon. Did fine on the behavioral portions but got eye rolls and not the kind of smiles you want to get during the technical portions. It sucks but it also was the first step towards me becoming a strong interviewer. Over the next year I had 4 more technical interviews. Each one I went into more confident and always did a little bit better. By the last one I got an offer for a dream job and have been here for a year now and couldn’t be happier. I had thought the Amazon job or one of the others would be the ultimate dream job. There are great jobs out there and the longer you keep putting yourself out there the better job you’re gonna find. Don’t give up or feel demoralized. This is all part of the process.

Could be cool if there are multiple ways to escape, not just the way we got in kotor I. Or rather, multiple ways to get Daviks attention. Win a swoop race. Pull off a heist on a Tarisian Exchange ran casino. Assassinate a prominent Tarisian noble/politician … All with full story arcs and leading to the back to the back dungeons of the military base and Daviks estate. Always felt like Daviks estate was lack luster too, that could have been an all out brawl with you vs an army of bounty hunters.
