Episode 16: Healing a Nation - Part 2: How to Fix It
<p>This week, Phyllis Leavitt rejoins the show to cover part two of our conversation on "Healing a Nation." She has been a psychotherapist for 30 years, and the Co-Director of a sexual abuse treatment program before going into private practice treating children, adults, couples, and families. She also has a new book coming out, “America in Therapy.” The answers to the country’s turmoil are already known and used effectively in psychotherapy – and most of it contradicts the beliefs and interactions that dominate our country today and continue the cycle of abuse, discrimination, violence, and war. We talk about this and many other interesting things on this episode so tune in!

Episode 15: Breaking the Stigma of Mental Health
<p>In this episode, I'm joined by mental health advocate, Momma Foxfire. She is the host of the live show, “Even Tacos Fall Apart,” promoting honesty and support for mental health. The show is inspired by Momma’s own experiences with depression, anxiety, and PTSD from an abusive marriage. Momma is a single mom, maintains a full-time job, and spreads non-toxic positivity through various social media, mental health and gaming communities. More than focusing on psychiatric conditions, Momma mostly helps people with self-improvement issues: anger management, chronic pain, domestic violence, grief/loss, low self-esteem, parenting, etc. And she came to the show today to talk to us a little bit about her journey and her experience.

Episode 14 - Consult with Erin Riley
<p>This episode's guest, Erin Riley, worked in the music industry for 40 years, choosing hit records for America’s #1 rock & roll radio station, WMMR-FM, serving as Executive Director for the GRAMMY organization, and hanging out with rock stars like Keith Richards, Steven Tyler, James Taylor, and Jon Bon Jovi. But her colorful, raucous, rock & roll life hid dark secrets. Growing up with an alcoholic father and fashion model mother, Erin was an emotionally neglected child. She had no experience with love and healthy relationships. The marriage she thought would be her happily-ever-after led to 20 years of confusion, heartbreak, anger, and betrayal, which she describes in a compelling book, A Dark Force: 20 Years with A Covert Narcissist. Erin never saw herself as vulnerable to an emotionally abusive partner. But the reality is there is no profile to the type of person who ends up in an emotional, verbal, and/or physically abusive relationship. We talked about how that can happen and how to avoid these relationships.</p> <p><br></p>
