Reconnect

Reconnect

Reconnect is the podcast for people who want to heal and grow from life's toughest times. The conversations I have with mental health professionals sound nothing like the ones I hear on podcasts. They're hopeful. They make sense. They tell you what the evidence actually says. So I created a podcast to share them. The aim is simple: help you become informed, find hope, and build your own mental health toolkit. New episode every other week. 🙏 Donate to help us make more episodes: https://ko-fi.com/joetudor 🔔 Subscribe for new conversations on mental health, healing and growth.

  1. Why Your Brain Isn't Broken | Clinical Psychologist

    Why Your Brain Isn't Broken | Clinical Psychologist

    What if your depression isn't a sign that something is broken, but a survival strategy to help you cope with pain? Anders Sorensen is a Clinical Psychologist with a PhD in Psychiatry and the author of the book Crossing Zero. In this episode, we chat about: why your symptoms might be emotion regulation strategies, what your depression and anxiety might be trying to signal, why you don't need to understand your entire past to begin healing, and how to start decoding your emotions rather than numbing them. 📖 Crossing Zero by Anders Sorensen — Amazon: https://amzn.eu/d/0bTMw4K4 🙏 Donate to help us make more episodes: https://ko-fi.com/joetudor ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 – Introduction 00:22 – What Are Mental Health Struggles? 02:59 – Is Depression a Survival Strategy? 05:20 – Why Do We Overthink, Overwork or Stay in Bed? 08:35 – Why Short-Term Coping Strategies Cause Burnout 09:09 – What Are Your Depression and Anxiety Trying to Tell You? 13:00 – How to Decode Your Emotions Without Therapy 28:30 – Where Does Shame and Feeling Worthless Come From? 34:59 – Do You Need to Understand Your Past to Heal? 36:56 – Are Antidepressants Just Another Coping Strategy? 47:54 – Anders' Book: Crossing Zero 🌐 Website: https://reconnect.club | https://joetudor.com/ 📲 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joetudor/ 🔔 Subscribe for new conversations every other week on mental health, healing and growth.
