Mental Health Matters

Between sessions is when Dr Audrey reflects on what has been going on during the week – and this week it’s about the importance of connecting in real life.  Related to last week on the need for more connection IRL, this week, Dr Audrey considers the impact of chat bots and whether they can ever be a true substitute for a relationship.

One of the hardest conversations on the show – and reveals the full impact that bullying and toxicity in the workplace can have on a person…we are grateful to award-winning Film maker, and dancer Katherine Luna Gate for sharing her experiences and how they still affect her, although she is putting in the work to process.

Between sessions is when Dr Audrey reflects on what has been going on during the week – and this week it’s about the importance of connecting in real life.  There is so much content, and yes, we get that this is part of that continuous channel of information – but we need to make time to talk…really talk, face-to-face too!

This is one of the most eye-opening discussions we’ve had on our show.  We’re joined by Dr Kat Schneider of the Centre for Appearance Research to discuss the importance of appreciating and celebrating Body Diversity, and Body functionality…and why living in a larger body is not something to have to explain!  Plus – she explores why health interventions at the individual level are not enough.

So much of Dr Gus Chaves’ consultative work as a clinical hypnotherapist and medical GP has been about helping adults reconnect with their inner child…and in this episode we focus on how some of our adult patterns are set down in childhood – for good or for bad.  This isn’t about blame, but about recognising how what we do affects those that see it.

Rather than the “standard” CBT, psychoanalysis, or person-centred as clear “types” of therapy; Therapy has been moving towards a more integrative approach – and Francesca Francis who is working and training in the field, shares her experiences and why this approach is important as the field becomes more inclusive.  She also talks about research she’s working on with regards to the effects of social media on young people.

As experts in emotional (and often invisible) labour, women often face different problems in entrepreneurship compared to men – and not only is it wonderful to welcome back Dr Hayley Lewis to address those issues, as well as what to do about them – but explore the area further as it was the subject of her PhD research!
