Authentic Communication in Peer Support and Personal Relationships
**There are some long silences in this episode that we decided not to edit out. Silence can be a powerful tool for opening up the conversation and wanted to show this in real time**
Peer Support Specialists Nybelle Caruso and Andrew Pegram discuss navigating conversations that feel inauthentic, and how to open up more authenticity and mutuality in our relationships. We talk about the difficulties of expressing emotions, particularly anger.
What is Peer Support? Peer Support is a modality of providing emotional support from the lens of lived experience. Often peer supporters have had their own mental health and/or addictions challenges and can support others through disclosing these shared experiences. Peer support is also a different kind of relationship from the kind one might have with a therapist or social worker - one that is focused on mutuality, connection, community, and building one's self-determination
