Lebert & Paul: Happy Saturday everybody! You are currently tuned into another episode of Thoughts From A Counselor. We are your hosts Lebert Lester III and Paul Singleton II. As is usual for this show, we have invited two amazing guests to help us have a great conversation. Now, we’ll let our guests introduce themself to you.
Paul: Who are we? (2 min)
Two Black counselors in training are bridging the gap between what they were taught, what they know, and what they think they know. All through understanding the world by recognizing the world is still being formed.
Paul pass to Lebert to introduce the topic
(Lebert) Intro: “Public Health” sounds like a self-explanatory term and field, but it wouldn’t be an episode with us if we didn’t break down the nuances involved in it. Public health is everything from community health to community health education and more specifically what factors affect communities' health.
(Paul) Question 1: So we have two people here who are currently in the public health field, and so it’s only right that we have you two weigh-in. How would you two define public health?
(Lebert) Question 2: Now that we have loosely defined it, is there a specific facet of public health that you have a particular focus on?
(Lebert) Question 1: While many of us are uniquely aware of public health through our lived experiences, being in a graduate program for it as a specific focus provides proper terms, training and more. In what ways have your views of public health changed since beginning your programs?
(Paul) Question 2: To now pair with the first question, education does not inherently mean we are learning the right things, but that we are merely learning things. What are gaps you have perceived in the field of public health?
(Lebert) Question 1: Our specific journeys are often motivated and supported by our identities, so in what ways has your identity influenced your interest in public health?
(Paul) Question 2: What are some “public health” recommendations you have for our listeners? They can be on an individual basis, as well as recommendations for how to have better conversations on public health.
(Paul) Lead by Example: Where we highlight those doing good work, or who did good work
(Lebert) Listener question of the day idea: What do you know about public health?
Key Takeaways!!!
