    Should I Enroll In a Mental Health Clinical Trial?

    Let’s talk clinical trials, shall we? (Spoiler alert: One of our guests on this episode has been enrolled in one for 33 years! 🤯) In this episode of The Mighty Podcast, host Ashley is joined by Jackie Scott and Peter J. Franz, Ph.D. to explore the world of mental health clinical trials. Jackie is a speaker with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, creator of the PS Project, and mental health advocate living with depression. Pete is an assistant professor at Yeshiva University and Albert Einstein College of Medicine. He conducts research on depression, suicide, and other topics related to mental health. Together, the trio discusses Jackie’s involvement in her longstanding clinical trial for her depression related to her lack of serotonin, Pete shares his experience as a researcher — including some of his work on suicide reduction — where he tested whether reading other people's lived experiences could be used as a therapeutic resource, and both share their wisdom for anyone considering if a clinical trial is the right fit for their mental health journey. This episode touches on suicide and suicidal ideation. If this is triggering, be sure to avoid these sections of the episode: 6:17-8:21 and 20:25-20:47.

    Period Pain Points

    Do you ever feel like riding a horse while on your period? Neither do we, but apparently period product commercials believe we do (and we have #opinions!). In this episode of The Mighty Podcast, host Ashley is joined by Camara, Shruti, and Skye to talk about the “taboo” experience that is having a period. They discuss societal “norms,” what doctors do – and specifically don’t – know, and just wait to hear some of the go-to euphemisms we use when it’s that time of the month.

    Going More Than Skin Deep

    For being the body’s largest organ, skin conditions sure do have a mixed reputation. (Insert joke here about them being flaky.) In this episode of The Mighty Podcast, host Ashley gets under the skin (well, metaphorically) of guests Camara Rauen, Shruti Shivaramakrishnan, Skye Gailing, and Katia Budak to talk about their respective skin conditions. While they do discuss the physical symptoms of their diagnoses — eczema, rosacea, acne, and keratosis pilaris — they also dive into how those conditions impact their mental health as well as their relationships with the skin they’re in. Come for the validation, stay for Shruti and Katia's incredibly detailed masterclass in skin care 101. A transcript of the episode is available here: https://bit.ly/3EhYkLV
