Reflecting on health communication research & teaching, exploring eating disorder recovery, and other musings on "this unprecedented time" with Laura Russell, PhD
Today’s guest on Back to You is Dr. Laura Russell. Laura is an Associate Professor of Communication at Denison University. She received her Ph.D. from the School of Communication Studies at Ohio University. Laura’s passion for health and organizational communication not only apply to her scholarship, but also to her community involvement. Drawn to issues concerning individual and collective well-being, she centers her research on understanding the communication of personal and relational health. As a phenomenologist at heart guided by theories of narrative and dialogue, she observes, participates in, and examines processes of human recovery in an array of contexts. In her current work, she investigates how virtues, such as gratitude and forgiveness, play a prominent role in how people construct meaning for living well after crisis and/or personal struggle. Furthermore, Laura explores ethical questions concerning the social politics of health and human worth. Her recent publications appear in Health Communication, Qualitative Inquiry, and Life Writing.
