    Facing the monster | The 10 stages of genocide

    So here's something from my Youtube page that, in light of the 2024 election cycle, I thought would be good to post here. Genocide always seems like hyperbole...until it's not. (The video includes images of referenced articles and quotes, so if you benefit from seeing the text on-screen, please check out the link below.) Description from Youtube episode released May 29, 2024: I'm not a political commentator. In fact, I can only consume so much of the news cycle every week before my feelings of helplessness and hopelessness get too overwhelming. Looking at all the atrocities humans have done and are currently doing to each other is so, so heartbreaking -- and honestly, traumatizing. However, you've got to understand the monstrous side of humanity in order to continuously choose compassion and empathy. And, I don't know, maybe it's my neurodivergent brain, but having some academic knowledge helps me to understand and avoid (as much as humanly possible) the propaganda pitfalls that permeate social discourse these days.

    Burnout series episode 4: Strategies that actually help

    So you've tried all the burnout strategies you can find: Mindfulness, eating better, exercising, goign to bed early ...aaaannnnnd they didn't work. Guess you'll just stay burned out forever, right? Not necessarily... The stuff that really works to help with burnout (and trauma responses) are just not as pithy, toxic-positivity-y, and clickbait-y as the stuff we tend to hear the most about. Not that those things aren't useful for healing, mental health, and recovery...just that complex problems often require complex solutions and burnout? It's complicated, BABYYYY!!!! TOPICS COVERED: The issue with "typical" strategies The ONE strategy we could all use more of Strategies for emotional processing (bottom-up) "Small" strategies that can have a big impact A rough burnout series summary Youtube video of this episode About Us: The Trauma-Informed SLP website Our email Our other social media: Facebook Instagram Youtube channel Wanna support us financially?

    Burnout series episode 3: Secondary traumatic stress

    Episode 3 is finally here! On this episode, we talk about secondary traumatic stress (STS), a.k.a vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, trauma exposure, etc... This is the meat...the "entrée" (if you will)...of the series because I think that the impact of being exposed to other peoples' trauma is a lot more prevalent than we tend to think. And it's what gets confounded with burnout the most.

    Meltdowns vs tantrums: Does it actually matter what makes a person upset?

    One little thread on r/slp made me think of three major things that are part of how I process and do neurodivergent-affirming care in the case of emotional dysregulation. So I made a really informal video (using my front cam on my Macbook, so apologies for the quality) to address those things. Outline:1) Definition of dysregulation, it's over-use, and contrasting it with emotional upset.2) Putting more effort into thinking through possible reasons for meltdowns/tantrums/emotional upset vs. trying to figure out which one it is -- and why this is important for child safety.3) All behavior isn't intentional communication, but it can be information: Pro-tip for thinking of AT LEAST THREE possible reasons for the meltdown/upset/tantrum behavior.

    Burnout series episode 2: Primary trauma from the workplace

    Part 2 is finally here!! (Whew!) On this episode, we go over both systemic and interpersonal/relationship things in the workplace itself that can contribute to traumatizing experiences for employees.

    Burnout series (ep 1): What even IS burnout?

    Burnout. It seems like everyone has it! (*insert Oprah meme here* "YOU get burnout and YOU get burnout and YOU get burnout! EVERYONE GETS BURNOOOOOOUUT!!!!!") But what really is burnout? And why do so many people suffer from it? This is the first in a series of episodes on this big, complex monster-of-a-thing we call "burnout." I’m hoping this series will help you figure out what you need to start healing from your own burnout. In this video, you’ll discover: What burnout is (and why it feels like you're running on empty) The top culprits behind burnout How taking a break and/or “quiet quitting” ISN’T laziness: Rest and recuperation is a vital part of health Future videos will include: Confounding factors that contribute to (or maybe come from) burnout The issues with self-care hacks and strategies that make up the bulk of burnout content The relationship between autistic burnout / ADHD burnout and professional burn out How burnout can relate to systemic oppression.  About Us: The Trauma-Informed SLP website Our email Our other social media: Facebook Instagram Youtube channel Wanna support us financially?

    Proposal: New labels for The Neurodivergent Movement re: social adversity

    So, I talked about this at my ASHA 2023 talk, made an image carousel on Instagram, and did rambly Youtube video on this, but figured I'd do a quick podcast ep on this as well, cause I've found myself using these terms more and more these days and, well, I just think it's good to clarify when we're talking about societal/social adversity vs. individual neurodivergent profiles. References and Resources: Disability:In on apparent vs. non-apparent diabilities My insta reel, FB post, and Youtube Vid on this My source of definitions for medical model of disability vs. social model of disability NOTE: Different from pathogenic vs. salutogenic approaches.
