Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep120: Stephen Rowley, Ph.D.
Q: How do you speak to those huge, heavy concepts of loss?
Rowley emphasizes the importance of confronting deep emotional losses as potential teachers, suggesting that understanding pain can lead to greater emotional truth and humanity.
Ep118: Carl Niedzielski (Director, Grants and Researcher Development at American Foundation for Suicide Prevention)
Q: What is the process like when someone dials 988 for help?
Ideally, someone will talk to you for any reason, and if you're in crisis, they can connect you to crisis centers, although implementation is still a work in progress.
Ep118: Carl Niedzielski (Director, Grants and Researcher Development at American Foundation for Suicide Prevention)
Q: Can you explain what really happens in terms of research and funding and attention given to various marginalized groups such as adoptees?
Research on suicide is relatively young and there is a significant gap in understanding how adoption impacts mental health outcomes, with little research specifically on adopted individuals.
Ep118: Carl Niedzielski (Director, Grants and Researcher Development at American Foundation for Suicide Prevention)
Q: Could you tell people what you told me about your particular instance regarding the succession of those traumas?
There were almost three relinquishments for adoptees, and it's very common for adoptees to not have a pre-trauma self, making treatment challenging.
Ep125: Paul Fiscus #Free Eliza
Q: Is there any way to avoid this? If this happens, is there something you can do?
Honestly, if you're a white man and this happens, I don't think there's a way you can stop it.
