Welcome to Schauer Thoughts, this week we'll be dissecting the “MAHA Report” as well as it's strategy and “MAHA ELEVATE” proposal. Please know that there will be several more parts to this series so if there's anything you think I didn't get to or is worth emphasizing, I will absolutely be doing follow-ups and want you to hang tight - I very much hear and mirror your concern. Researching this episode has been heartbreaking like none other and I just appreciate you all taking the time to listen. Please review the sources below for all information, it is of the utmost importance right now that we all stay informed. Download Hily Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit ⁠https://hily.go.link/jRMKW I do also plan on searching for actionable items and ways to recognize front groups, but I do need some time to collect and format that information. Please know that hope is never lost.  Nuance: I do apologize for my poor pronunciation of some medical conditions and other words, I am someone who loves to research outside of a school context so I don't get to hear most of these words spoken out loud by others. I foresee some red-hat-supporters running with this point for “evidence” of me being unintelligent and I'm covering my bases for when that eventually happens. My main reason for pointing this out is not to prevent people making fun of my pronunciation but more of a demonstration on how predictable some people are. Reminder: I love answering questions, if you have an assumption on any of my political stances, please just ask. *Spoiler* I am not a fan of the United States military and have very strong, informed opinions. Edit for 31:50 - I accidentally referred to RFK Jr. as “JFK” - this was a mistake lol.

Hear Me: Stories to Challenge OUD Stigma - Series Summary: In this series, we amplify the voices of individuals who have navigated the healthcare system while facing stigma related to opioid use, race, identity, pregnancy, and trauma. Through raw, personal narratives like Joey's and Kshe's (KAY-she), you are invited to listen deeply — not only to the stories , but also to the systemic challenges and human truths they reveal. These short, powerful episodes are a call to action: to reflect, to empathize, and to change. Because compassionate care begins when we choose to hear. Episode: Kshe's Story: Pregnancy, Substance Use and the Power of Compassionate Care Featuring:  Kshe Bernard Valery Shuman, ATR-BC, LCPC, Co-Founder, Sana Healing Collective Summary: Faced with judgment and fear during her pregnancy, Kshe (KAY-she) found hope in one provider's compassion—her story is a powerful reminder that empathy in medicine can change lives. As You Listen to Kshe's Story, Consider: How does stigma impact the willingness of pregnant individuals with SUD to seek medical care? What assumptions might you hold—consciously or unconsciously—about people who use drugs while pregnant? How can you integrate trauma-informed, compassionate care into your practice? Kshe's story highlights the life-changing impact of compassionate care. As a healthcare clinician, your approach matters. How you speak to, treat, and engage with patients can either serve as a barrier or as a bridge to care. Consider what changes you can make in your practice—whether through language, policy advocacy, or patient interactions—to help dismantle stigma and foster trust. Compassion isn't just an ideal—it's an intervention. How will you use it?

Through raw, personal narratives like Joey's and Kshe's (KAY-she), you are invited to listen deeply — not only to the stories , but also to the systemic challenges and human truths they reveal. These short, powerful episodes are a call to action: to reflect, to empathize, and to change. Because compassionate care begins when we choose to hear.   Episode: Joey's Story: Running from Stigma Featuring:  Joey McCleod Valery Shuman, ATR-BC, LCPC, Co-Founder, Sana Healing Collective, and Senior Lecturer, Art Therapy and Counseling program, School of the Art Institute of Chicago Summary:  What happens when fear of judgment keeps someone from seeking lifesaving care? Joey's story reveals how stigma at the intersection of race, sexuality, and substance use can create invisible barriers that healthcare clinicians have the power to break. As you listen to Joey's story, we encourage you to: Reflect on Bias: Consider how stigma—both personal and systemic—may shape Joey's experiences in healthcare and affect his willingness to seek care. Recognize the Power of Small Interactions: The way you communicate—your tone, body language, and choice of words—can either build trust or reinforce fear and avoidance. Commit to Change: Identify one action you can take to create a more welcoming, nonjudgmental environment for patients facing similar barriers. Joey's story is just one example of how stigma can create barriers to care. As a healthcare clinician, you have the power to change that. Take a moment to reflect—what's one small shift you can make in your language, your approach, or your clinical environment to ensure patients like Joey feel safe, heard, and respected? Reducing stigma starts with awareness, but real change happens through action. We encourage you to commit to one tangible change today that will help foster trust and compassion in your practice.

Introducing our capstone episode of the season, and arguably one of the most important topics we've discussed to date. As it turns out, trauma is proven to play a much more direct role in our lives than we may have realized (as you'll hear around the 22-minute mark). In this episode, as Laine walks us through some of the science most noted from neuroscientist Bruce Perry, we discover just how impactful trauma -- both "capital T" and "little T" -- can be. In my experience while recording this episode, it took almost the entire hour+ to grasp the difference between these two traumas, and that shockingly enough, it's not the event that causes trauma. There's a lot to cover on this topic, and to do it justice, we've decided to break it up into two episodes. You'll receive one more episode + a bonus meditation in November!

Nicole Porter ATR-BC, a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, speaks with Carolyn Tennant about art therapy, its proven neurobiological benefits, and her work with children suffering from acute trauma. She is founder of Emerald Sketch, a mental health organization inspired by her experience as a first responder after the 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary, which mobilizes clinicians to develop sustainable art therapy services following disasters and traumatic events. Porter serves as president of the New York Art Therapy Association and works as an organizer with LCAT Advocacy Coalition, the first-of-its-kind lobbying group which campaigns on behalf of the field in New York State. Porter discusses how, despite today's mental health crisis facing children, art therapy and other essential services have been redlined in the state's budget.

The process of making art can result in a lot more than just a finished product to display on a shelf. Given the proliferation of adult coloring books and DIY painting studios, it seems some folks have figured this out. Does spending time making art really improve our mental state? Taking it a step further, can artistic activities help heal mental health conditions? Creative arts therapy offers engaging ways to boost awareness of the arts and promote healing. It can help increase our awareness of ourselves and others, help us cope with stress and trauma, and enjoy the life-affirming pleasure of making art. Creative arts therapy combines psychotherapy with art-based activities, including music and drama, to help treat mental health conditions. Creative arts therapists use art to help everyone, including kids and adults, hospitalized people, veterans and families or couples. It doesn't matter if you're young or old, artistically inclined or not. Anyone can participate in and benefit from creative arts therapy. Music and creativity are inherent parts of the human experience. Sound interesting? This episode is for you. In Episode 68, Dr. G and his guests, music therapist Sarah Clewett and art therapist Valerie Maty, discuss how creative arts therapy is used not only to treat mental health but also how everyone can use art to improve their own well-being. Guest Sarah Clewett, MA, MT-BC - Master of arts in music therapy and a board-certified music therapist at the Institute for Therapy Through the Arts; Classically trained oboist and musician.
