I’ve made a decision that today will be the final CYH Podcast episode for the 2019-20 "season"! I think it’s time to recharge and come back fresh in the fall. I do hope you’ll continue to listen and share and stay with me on social media. A great way to end is simply to share some things I learned on my recent trip to Yellowstone! Make sure you go to the show notes to see pictures and videos. Show notes at https://bit.ly/2XJLKQYCYH66 Thank you SO much for your support for this first "season" of a year and a half! Until fall, Consider Yourself Hugged! 🤗

You may notice this is not session 6 of "The Stress Club." Although based on number of listens I’m assuming you aren’t noticing at all 😜 I altered my path. I changed my course. I changed my mind. Whatever you want to call it, I decided that wasn’t working. Maybe it’s because I have more men in the audience than I thought. Maybe it’s because people aren’t listening as much during this pandemic. Maybe it’s because I really suck! For whatever reason, it wasn’t working.So yesterday as I was thinking about the podcast for today, I realized when things aren’t working sometimes you’ve got to decide what to do next. A lesson! Then I realized there have been so many wonderful things that have happened during the past few months! So on my walk this morning I processed those and want to share them with you. I hope they help!Show Notes at https://bit.ly/2XsWWjPCYH65.

Remember when I introduced you to the concept of Interpretative Repertoires, or themes? Today we are going to talk about one of three overall ways women talked about stress, and that is as “the plight of women”. In order to best understand this we'll start with a little biology. I am not an expert on gender differences. I do have an undergraduate degree in biology so I have a decent understanding, but there is much debate over gender, how much is biological how much is cultural etc. So, as I’ve said 1 million times before, I don’t mean all women or all men even if I accidentally say it. But there are differences, and I'm excited to share them and how it affects women's conversations about stress!Show notes post by 7 am CST, Tuesday 5/18.

Welcome to the Stress Club Session 3!So far we have talked about frogs in pots, how we areconditioned that stress it’s just part of life today. In chapter 2 we looked at our stories and the formula for happiness and the influences on how we react to life events. Then in Chapter 3, I gave you an overview of how I studied stress and how it is different from other studies. Today I am sharing with you probably my favorite chapter, my favorite topic of this entire book for women, our language! It’s probably never been in the front of your radar to study the history of women’s language, so let me help you with that today! I’ll give credit to a few women who really paved the way and talk about our language in three different views: Language as Deficient, Language as Different, and Language as Rapport.It's a good one!!

Last week we laid the foundation and talked about the happiness formula and the importance of choices. That’s what the rest of this book is about, Choices. Remember, this book and study is not about what stresses you out, how you feel when you are stressed, or even managing stress,. It is about the concept of how women talk about stress. This chapter, if you really grab onto it and adopt it, can change your life in many areas, not just stress. I can almost guarantee you that you have not heard of the field of Critical Discursive Psychology. But you are about to, and it's gonna be good! Show notes at https://bit.ly/3f1fM9qCYH61.
