Netflix’s Adolescence Forces Us to Talk About Hard Things

There is so much buzz (and fear) springing from Netflix’s Adolescence. Many are trying to make sense of the heady topics it covers… others have opted to avoid watching altogether. Our advice: It’s must see TV. While its premise is extreme, its themes – social media + tech use, toxic masculinity, bullying, loneliness and more – are universal to today’s youth. There’s no turning a blind eye.

Getting Real About Sex Ed with Shafia Zaloom

Sexuality education is proven to have positive impacts on kids’ lifelong wellbeing in all areas and yet, people assume it only covers S-E-X. In fact, as health educator Shafia Zaloom discusses on the podcast, this corner of education provides young people with a wide variety of life-critical skills like emotional intelligence, boundary setting, conflict resolution, and so much more. Yes, science-based sexual health is an important part of any good education but so too are the cornerstones of humanity like dignity, love, and respect.

“I booked a Boob Job”

In today’s episode, Dale opens up about something deeply personal, intentional, and years in the making: her upcoming breast augmentation in the new year. This isn’t a beauty-decision story; it’s an honesty story, a coming-home-to-yourself story, and a conversation about doing something for you after years of your body being in service to pregnancy, breastfeeding, motherhood, and everyone else’s needs. Dale shares why she chose to move forward now, how she knew she was truly ready, and the clarity she needed around whether or not she was done having kids. She talks about what it was like to tell her husband, how she brought him into the process, and how she approached telling her parents. She also explains why she decided to be transparent on social media and how sharing her truth was core to her. Dale walks through her entire process of finding the right doctor, from the research to the consultations to choosing the surgeon who felt aligned, and she opens up about the financial side as well, including what she’s paying and the considerations behind that decision. This episode is raw, grounded, and meant to take the shame and secrecy out of a topic so many women quietly think about. It’s a reminder that you are more than a mom and you’re allowed to make choices that honor the woman inside the mother.

Healing, Sobriety, and Finding Purpose with Ellie Haney, Founder of Here For You Clothing

Ellie Haney, founder of Here For You Clothing, drew inspiration from her mental health journey and channeled her darkness into creative energy amid the COVID-19 pandemic by creating purposeful garments and finding optimism and resilience through the process. With her two childhood best friends, the team travels across the US, sharing Ellie's story and spreading the message that it's okay not to be okay, using their brand as a symbol of support and unity. In this episode, Ellie Haney recounts her journey through the challenges of self-medicating during college, the pressures of living the perfect life, and drug-induced psychosis. She walks us through her path to understanding mental health, the support she found from her parents, and how the pandemic became a turning point with the discovery of tie-dying, which led her to discover her passion for creating Here For You Clothing. Ellie emphasizes the importance of therapy, uncovering your life's passion, and realizing no one is alone through difficult times. During Bridgett and Ellie’s vulnerable conversation, they bond over their experiences of self-medicating, suppressing emotions, and finding hope as the "cloud" of pain lifts. Ellie also shares her sobriety journey and how overcoming alcohol dependence has been key to her healing. For more, you can follow the Beyond Beauty Project on Instagram & Youtube!

It’s Not Fair!

Kids are constantly analyzing and expressing their views on fairness––they do it in school, at home, on the sports field, basically everywhere. There are two different interpretations of fairness: equity and equality. We explore the difference between meeting each person’s individual needs vs slicing the pie the same way for all. While the constant refrain of “It’s not fair!” can be irritating to adults, the skill of understanding fairness is critical to kids’ social and moral development.

“Are You Mad At Me?”

There is another F word – no, not that one. It’s FAWN, the under-appreciated fourth companion of the well-known coping responses: fight, flight, and freeze. Fawning means people-pleasing, and it can be used for survival – truly! Listen to this fascinating conversation with psychotherapist Meg Josephson on how to recognize fawning, break the cycle, and replace it with other coping strategies. She helps all of us pause before asking the question: Are you mad at me? Show Notes: Watch the full episode on Youtube!
