    Navigating a Cross-Cultural Identity ft. Multicultural Coach Jane W. Wang

    This week, we are joined by Jane W. Wang, a self-actualization coach for multicultural people, who helps us understand our cross-cultural identities better as third culture kids. Where do we belong? How do we navigate conflicting cultural values? Is there a "right" way to communicate? What is cultural intelligence? Jane's website: janewwang.com Jane confirmed that the intercultural communication frameworks she spoke of -- low-context vs high-context communication, and task vs relationship-based prioritization, were developed by anthropologist Edward T. Hall, one of the founding fathers of the intercultural communication field of study. She also recommends these books: https://www.amazon.com/Culture-Map-Breaking-Invisible-Boundaries/dp/1610392507 https://www.amazon.com/Geography-Thought-Asians-Westerners-Differently/dp/0743255356 Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/btwnhereandthere Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/btwnherethere/

  4. 青少年憂鬱亂入，精神科醫師給大人的陪伴指南

    青少年憂鬱亂入，精神科醫師給大人的陪伴指南

    本集節目由Rocket Admit 火箭教育股份有限公司 根據董氏基金會，台灣高中生中每7個就有1個有明顯憂鬱症狀；大學生每5個就有1個有憂鬱傾向。但有憂鬱症狀的學生，10個裡面只有1位會尋求協助。 或許，很多家長會不解：「為什麼現在的孩子資源比過去多，還會有憂鬱症狀？」、「遇到問題為什麼不跟我們求助呢？」、「到底該怎麼在青少年傷害自己之前，察覺到孩子需要幫助？」 事實上，憂鬱與物質富足程度並沒有直接的關係。 青少年有些話是真的不容易說出口，有時候青少年的心理狀態不是聊天就能聊出來的，而是必須被觀察出來的。 這一集，我們邀請到憂鬱症防治協會 / 林口長庚醫院精神科主治醫師 張家銘醫師，分析青年憂鬱浪潮，以及身為青少年身邊的大人可以怎麼陪伴青少年面對這個不容易的議題。 ▶憂鬱症自我檢測 （簡式健康量表） http://www.depression.org.tw/detection/ ▶青少年憂鬱情緒自我檢視表 https://www.jtf.org.tw/overblue/young/ ▶憂鬱症常見Q&A http://www.depression.org.tw/knowledge/index.asp?/kd/8/1.html

  5. The Diet Culture Epidemic: A Discussion About Body Image, Disordered Eating, and Health At Every Size

    The Diet Culture Epidemic: A Discussion About Body Image, Disordered Eating, and Health At Every Size

    Hey, it’s Summer. The topic of this episode is near and dear to my heart, and I wanted to thank you for clicking on it. About a month ago, I opened up to Charlotte about my struggles with body image and my relationship with food, and we started talking about how prevalent these issues are in society, especially in Asia. We originally wanted the episode to be about body image in a more general sense, but as I thought more about it, I realized I couldn’t talk about body image without talking about food. Thus, I share my eating disorder story candidly in hopes that if you can’t resonate with it, you can at least learn from it. Whether you yourself struggle with the way you look in the mirror, the way you feel around food, or the way you feel about exercise, know that you don’t have to feel ashamed, and I’m here for you. If we can’t all practice body positivity, because I know it can be hard, then let’s start with body neutrality. Practice gratitude for what your body can do for you, rather than what it looks like. If you’d like to talk more about eating disorders, diet culture, and body image, please reach out on Facebook or Instagram. I’d love to continue the conversation there.
