MIRROR: The Impact of a Popular Musical Group on the Lives of their Fans and the Society with Special Guest Peggy Chan, M.Ed., R.S.W. MIRROR is a phenomenon of popular culture in Hong Kong. Since 2018, these 12 young men from Hong Kong have become idols for many fans, inspiring strong emotions and devotion. Emerging during a time of great social change, they have provided a strong sense of camaraderie among their fans with many acts of generosity and feelings of togetherness. A recent accident during their performance at the Coliseum, Hong Kong's largest entertainment venue, has left one of their dancers in critical condition. In this government owned facility, a television monitor above the stage fell on the dancer. In our discussion, Mrs. Chan describes this phenomenon and we discuss the strong connectedness and contagiousness of emotion in social groups. We begin to speculate about the optimal response of society's leaders to this phenomenon and the upset of the tragic accident. Mrs. Chan is a Social Worker who trains Bowen Family Systems Theory therapists at a nongovernmental organization. We met at the Bowen Center for the Study of the Family in Washington, D.C. and have worked together as colleagues on numerous projects.

You do not live and die within a vacuum. Families are systems of interconnected and interdependent individuals, none of whom can be understood in isolation from the system. Emotional connections, rules, and agreements have and continue to be forged within that system, usually centered around managing anxiety. Once the research view shifts from the individual to the family or work unit, the scene looks entirely different. Listen in to this episode as Rob interview Dr. Kathleen Smith, an associate faculty member at the Bowen Center in Washington, DC, which trains clinicians, clergy, and business leaders in the practice of Bowen Family Systems Theory.

About Murry Bowen A psychiatrist, Bowen had dedicated his life to the “human cause,” producing a remarkable new theory of human behavior, family systems theory, also known as Bowen theory. The new theory has the potential to replace most of Freudian theory and to radically change treatment approaches, not only in psychiatry, but in all of medicine. Potential applications of Bowen theory extend beyond the human family to nonfamily groups, including large organizations and society as a whole.* *Gilbert, Roberta M. (2011-03-14).
