    Social media and young people: Who takes responsibility? (with Dr. Rys Farthing)

    In this episode of Being Human, Dr. Chua Sook Ning speaks with Dr. Rys Farthing, a policy expert whose work examines children’s rights in digital environments. Drawing on Rys’s research across academia and policy, including her work with the 5Rights Foundation and Fairplay, the conversation moves beyond screen-time debates to consider how technology, regulation, and power shape young people’s wellbeing. Together, they explore what a child rights-based approach adds to mental health conversations, where protective policies can miss the mark, and what meaningful safety and empowerment for young people online might actually involve.

    The art of emotional presence (with Dr. Lou Cooper)

    In this episode of Being Human, Dr. Chua Sook Ning is joined by Dr. Lou Cooper, Chair of the Australian Institute of Emotion Focused Therapy and host of the Emotion Focused Podcast. Navigating our emotional world is rarely straightforward. Lou shares how the way we respond to feelings – whether by suppressing, managing, or exploring them – is shaped not only by our personal histories, but also by our cultural context. The conversation highlights how easily we can bypass emotional signals, especially in cultures where emotional expression is discouraged or misunderstood. Lou also invites us to consider what happens when we ignore or avoid our emotions: we lose access to vital information about how we’re really doing, what matters to us, and what we might need to change. __ To learn more about Relate Malaysia and its services visit www.relate.com.my
