Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bad Poetry For Better Mental Health
Q: How can it help things? I mean, we think of the big two, anxiety, depression. How have you seen poetry writing be helpful in starting to process those types of feelings or issues?
Bryden says writing poetry can act as mindfulness by slowing people down and bringing attention to the present. Putting feelings on the page creates distance and containment, which can make anxiety and depressive thoughts feel more manageable.
Bad Poetry For Better Mental Health
Q: But was this always kind of an idea you wanted to incorporate, or did you grow into that?
Bryden initially disliked poetry and set it aside. After becoming a mother and therapist, she discovered that creative writing helped clients gain insight and self-awareness, and poetry emerged while she was writing a book for her daughter.
Turning Tragedy and Loss into Purpose
Q: What would you love for someone mired in a weight issue, abuse issue or divorce to hear and believe as a starting point?
Fair says they matter, are worthy and have gifts. She recommends taking inventory of everyday strengths and journaling about self-talk to identify and reframe negative patterns.
Turning Tragedy and Loss into Purpose
Q: How would you help people move from “why me” to “what's next”?
Fair suggests gaining some distance by considering what advice one would give a friend, talking things through, seeking therapy or coaching, and spending time with supportive people.
Mobbing: Group Exclusion and Psychological Harassment
Q: What are some ideas you have if someone knows that they have a kid in this situation, or they're in this situation?
Laszewski recommends naming mobbing so people can recognize it, making exclusion feel unacceptable, and having leaders speak directly with bystanders about sudden changes in their behavior. She also says leaders need policies and training to respond.
