F*ck The Rules

Fuck The Rules Podcast
Season 2 Episode 10

In this Season 2 final episode, one of my favorite people, Veronica Green, chats with me. 

As with most of the people that I know, and definitely among my friends group, she is incredibly passionate about service to/for/with others. And this means for her, using her voice to advocate for those who are unable to speak up and advocate for themselves - her students.

We cover everything from how we first met, to Veronica's adventures in teaching, people trying to find the meaning of their human existence, to her new podcast. 

We get sweary, we laugh a lot, and at the end of the episode, curse motorcycles interrupting our discussions.

Veronica Green is a Midwest Mama with a K-12 license in ESL (English as a Second Language) in the state of Minnesota. Bilingual in Spanish and a language nerd at heart, she holds a Master’s in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and a Master’s in Conflict Resolution. She has a background in case management, business, music, and has homemade soup and baked goods game.

Veronica is the host and producer of her brand new podcast focusing on student and teacher advocacy called “Use Your Teacher Voice.” 

She lives in St. Paul with her partner, two daughters, old puppy, young kitty, trees and garden.

Season 2 Episode 8

For this episode, I asked someone that I admire and respect to be my guest:  Janna Gottwald-Stridbeck, Ph.D. Dipl.-Psych, who is also a Psychotherapist in training. We found one another on Instagram, and the information she puts out regarding trauma has led me to looking up other therapists and information about the info they share on their accounts.

Dr. Gottwald-Stridbeck is also passionate about language, we nerd out together about it, and I cheer her on about writing a modern translation of Freud's work.

Season 2 Episode 1

And I'm back for Season 2!

Child No. 1 (aka Seneca) asked to interview me, and I agreed. We talk about the difference between being seen in an ER setting and in private practice. I talk about working with patients or client that may have suicidal ideation. We discuss what it's like to have therapists that were not the best for us and what you can do about it if you're not grooving with your therapist. How I went into seeing First Responders, Law Enforcement and hospital staff in addition to those in the LGBTQ+ community. And finally, how the fuck I ended up with seven kids when I had planned on being childless when I was younger.

PLEASE NOTE: We discuss multiple topics and some may be distressing to listeners: discussion of mental health evaluations in an ER setting, suicide/suicidal ideation, and negative therapy experiences.
