What happens when your emotions become so overwhelming that they dictate your behavior in ways you regret? How do you regulate those emotions? This week Roe is sidelined due to some bad sushi so Craig is joined by Psychologist Katie Bigalke Jones to define emotional dysregulation and ways to get emotions under control. We discuss DBT skills and how they can be helpful in grounding those overwhelming emotions. Also, ghosts are real! -STNW!

Today Craig and Roe discuss and demystify some stereotypes about mindfulness. First of all what is it? Mindfulness is a state of active, open attention on the present. When we are mindful, we carefully observe our thoughts and feelings without judging them as good or bad. In counseling mindfulness is buzzword that many of us practitioners use, but lets face it... it feels pretty weird to do sometimes and everyone seems to have a point on how to do it correctly. Take a listen as we try to normalize and offer helps takes on how to utilize mindfulness effectively.

This is it! the big one! Craig Watson and Roe Hunter are joined by Regimental Psychologist Dr. Jeremy Noble. Dr. Noble is the Psychologist for the 75th Ranger Regiment, long time listener and first time caller here to give his insight on what it takes to be an effective leader. You're either Tony Robbins or you're not!...WRONG! Most of us are actually Michael Scott. We all posses great leadership qualities within. Being a leader requires a few key ingredients. Many of us ponder what it takes to influence other people and bring insight to the purpose of their lives. Let's just say it takes work. Give the guys a listen as they talk to one of the best around. And stay tuned for the lightening round. You really don't want to miss it! -STNW

Do you feel like you're all alone because your planet was destroyed and no one can relate? Then this is the wrong podcast for you! Because today Craig and Roe visit old planet stress and discuss how we personally handle stress both positively and negatively. Stress is as a part of life as grease is to bacon. We all handle stress differently, yet we are all affected by it. Join us as we attempt to not take ourselves too seriously and make sense of old planet stress before it gets blown up due to mismanagement of energy and lack of resources. (Quite literally, planet Krypton was overworked and ran out of resources and had to mine their respective sun in their solar system and as a result their sun exploded and destroyed their planet much like stress can do to us when we don't manage it well, but I digress). Bright side, we get an awesome comic out of it. Tell us what you think!
