Dr. Brooke Worster and Dr. Nathan Handley of Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center – Jefferson Health shine a spotlight on cannabis use in palliative oncology.  They discuss guidance on dosing, legal concerns, and resources for oncologists with host Dr. John Sweetenham of the UT Southwestern Simmons Cancer Center. Transcript Dr. John Sweetenham: Hello, I'm John Sweetenham, Associate Director of Clinical Affairs at UT Southwestern's Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center, and host of the ASCO Daily News podcast. Recent reports in oncology journals suggest that 20% to 40% of all patients with cancer use cannabis in some form during or after treatment to manage symptoms. However, a national survey of medical oncologists in 2018 found that 70% of oncologists did not feel equipped to make clinical recommendations regarding cannabis and only 46% recommended it clinically. Joining me to discuss cannabis use in palliative oncology are Dr. Brooke Worster, an associate professor and the director of supportive medicine at the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center at Jefferson Health. And Dr. Nathan Handley, a medical oncologist and an assistant professor who is also at the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center. Our full disclosures are available on our show notes and disclosures of all guests on the podcasts can be found on our transcripts and at asco.org/podcasts. Dr. Worster and Dr. Handley, thanks for coming onto the podcast today. Dr. Brooke Worster: Thanks for having us. Dr. Nathan Handley: Thank you. Dr. John Sweetenham: Dr. Worster, can you tell us how cannabis and cannabinoid-based medicines are used in palliative oncology and how prevalent this is? In addition, could you say a little about the use of cannabis in patients with cancer in the United States and how it compares with other countries? Dr. Brooke Worster: Yeah, absolutely. I think we are realizing more and more that cannabis or cannabinoid-based medications are used much more often than we as clinicians were aware. We just weren't asking our patients enough. And so, you mentioned other surveys about the kind of nationally sample representative of patients with cancer, we actually just also completed one that was a National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded study, looking at cancer centers across the country and found similar rates that patients with cancer under the age of 65, at some point during treatment or survivorship, about 50% of them had tried cannabis. Interestingly, the largest growing segment of patients with cancer starting to use and inquire about cannabis are our [age] 65 and older patients. So, a quarter of them now report using it. And we actually found that 45% of patients over the age of 65 were interested but didn't feel comfortable having the conversation. Our country is kind of middle of the road in terms of what's accessible and what we use. Certainly, countries like Canada and some places in Europe, as well as Australia have a much more advanced marketplace as well as legislation and access to cannabis. And so, it's used more prevalently across kinds of the oncology spectrum, but there are still a lot of countries across the world where cannabis remains completely illegal. So, the United States is sort of in the middle. Dr. John Sweetenham: Thanks. You and Dr. Handley recently co-authored an article in the ASCO Daily News along with other colleagues. And in that, you write the patients most often want guidance about the formulation and dosing, which as I read your article seems to be somewhat elusive still, given the diversity and composition of the plant-based strains. You point out that understanding the onset of action and duration of effects are important first steps. Could you say a little bit more about this? Dr. Brooke Worster: Yeah, absolutely. I think when someone is trying this for the first time, or for the first time in years, understanding how and when they're going to feel the impact or the effects of primarily tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) but also cannabidiol (CBD) and other minor cannabinoids is important for them to be patient. We see that people that ingest either sublingual absorption or oral ingestion of products, don't recognize that it can take up to 60 to 75 minutes, even if you have other food in your stomach to really feel the effect. And then will kind of overdose in some ways or sort of re-dose and get more of an effect of the THC than they were looking for. Versus if someone is inhaling something, you're really going to feel that quite rapidly, right? Five minutes in terms of onset of action. The duration of effect for that is much less. You're talking 2 to 3 hours maximum for an inhalation form, versus 5 to 7 hours for something that's sublingual, or orally ingested. Dr. John Sweetenham: Thanks! Dr. Handley, we've read in your article and in others, that cannabis as a palliative treatment for patients is well-tolerated, safe, and an effective option to help them cope with malignancy-related symptoms. Can you comment a little on whether or not there is a downside to cannabis and cannabinoid use and whether there are negative interactions with other cancer treatments? And are there certain patients who should avoid the use of cannabis? Dr. Nathan Handley: I would say that in general cannabis can be very safe if taken carefully and appropriately, and ideally with some guidance from a qualified practitioner. But it is important to consider some of the risks and side effects that cannabis carries. So, I think the first point is that if smoked, or otherwise, inhaled, the smoke can have many of the same carcinogens that are found in tobacco smoke. It's also interesting because smoking of marijuana or cannabis and tobacco are highly correlated. And so, it can be difficult for us to kind of assess if there are increased pulmonary risks associated specifically with cannabis use compared to tobacco use. And there have been a number of large cross-sectional and longitudinal studies that haven't found this link between cannabis use and impaired pulmonary function tests or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or lung cancer. But there are still potential risks associated with inhalational forms. There's also some evidence that there may be higher cardiovascular risks among cannabis users, specifically in patients who have heavy cannabis exposure. So, there have been some studies that have looked at the role cannabis can play in thrombosis, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. There have been some case reports that have linked its use to myocardial infarctions and arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, stroke, and arthritis. But those haven't necessarily been played out in large clinical trials yet. And so, essentially, if someone is at increased cardiovascular risk at baseline, if they're elderly, or if they have pre-existing cardiovascular conditions, these are things worth discussing with the patient. So, I wouldn't say that they're necessarily absolute contraindications. I think some of the more immediate side effects of cannabis are also worth discussing with patients. And these are often related to the amount or the concentration of THC that is present in the preparation. A THC ingestion can result in a number of adverse side effects. There can be impaired concentration, impaired spatial relationships, memory can sometimes be affected. And in some rare cases, you can have increased anxiety, paranoia, or even psychosis. And so, there are not again, strong studies demonstrating a distinct correlation between cannabis use and psychiatric disorders. This is an area that merits further investigation still, and those risks likely vary based on the type of the product, the potency, the composition, if it's synthetic, if it's illicit, but we do have some hesitation about using cannabis in patients who have severe pre-existing mental health conditions like psychosis or schizophrenia, or something like that. On the issue of interactions with certain cancer treatments, I think one thing that patients often wonder is if cannabis can be used to treat cancer? And there is some interesting in vitro data and some in vivo data to suggest that cannabinoids can modulate tumor growth. But the data here is very limited. And so, really what we say is that more research needs to be done in this area. I think the other area of interest is there's some preliminary data, suggesting that patients who are on immunotherapy may have a reduced response to that treatment if they're taking cannabinoids, but these data are also very early. And so, we don't make any clinical decisions based on it at this point. Dr. John Sweetenham: Okay. Thank you. Another area, which I think is concerning certainly to some oncologists and other physicians is the legal issues surrounding the use of medical cannabis. And the core issue there, of course, is the contradiction in many cases between federal and state laws. Dr. Worster, can you tell us a little bit more about this and how oncologists can inform themselves of these issues and perhaps feel a little bit more comfortable about prescribing or recommending medical cannabis? Dr. Brooke Worster: Absolutely. I think at the crux of this issue, you're spot on. I mean, it's muddy. And if you look at the map of our country, the state-by-state variation changes year to year. So, I think one of the biggest things for all clinicians to recognize is that there have been challenges to the legality of recommending, we're not prescribing because that is still federally illegal, but certainly recommending cannabis to patients. There have been legal and court challenges that have worked their way up to federal courts, and have always supported that this is a right to free speech and well within your protected rights as a clinician to have a conversation with your patient along the lines of all kinds of other lifestyle choices we talk about with patients. So, there's no risk in terms of having the conversation, per se, or guiding patients into the space. Where I would tell people to familiarize themselves is really the intricacies of your own state's laws, as well as where a patient may be living if you're seeing them across state lines. One really great resource for this is the National Consortium of State Legislatures. They do a very good job and keep very up to date on a state-by-state basis in terms of what's legal, what conditions, how to access it, if there's reciprocity between states or not, if you can bring product across state lines, who can access it, all of the things that our patients are concerned about, and thus, bringing very valid questions to us that we want to be able to kind of help support them in this conversation. Dr. John Sweetenham: Yeah. Thank you! You know, another issue that you do bring up in your recent article is that of pain management, which of course is a very important component of cancer care in general. But studies in the Journal of Clinical Oncology and elsewhere have recently found there's been a sharp decline in access to opioids among patients with terminal cancer, and some patients have had to turn to hospital emergency departments for pain control. The decline in access has been in part a response to the opioid crisis in the U.S. But do you think this raises an important question about whether we're doing enough to proactively address pain management with some of our patients, Dr. Worster? Dr. Brooke Worster: That's always a really important conversation that we aren't talking about enough. I think, truly, certainly, the pendulum has swung very far to the other side. And in some ways, this is beneficial, because as more and more of our patients with cancer are living into survivorship, we have certainly seen where iatrogenically, we have created dependency and substance misuse issues in the past, and it continues to happen. But I think that we need better ways to have honest conversations with our patients about both. What nuances to their pain exist? Pain is not pain is not pain, right? So, the etiology of their pain is important. And the way that we treat it shouldn't all be the same—neuropathic versus visceral versus a post-operative or inflammatory type of pain certainly should be looked at differently. I think access to opioids is critical for patients with cancer, although it really shouldn't be the only tool in our toolbox. Some of the work that we've done recently, it's interesting. There remains a wide racial gap in terms of access to opioids, as well, as we know this but less well-controlled pain in certain groups of patients with cancer, primarily minority Black and Hispanic patients versus White counterparts. And some of that has to do with the underlying responsiveness to opioids for various people, but also, how much are we talking about it? How much are we having the conversation? Is cannabis a helpful adjuvant, there? Are opioids something that are helpful? It should be talked about and continually readdressed. Dr. John Sweetenham: Thank you. Dr. Handley, Dr. Wooster just mentioned there in her previous comments, the issue of having honest conversations with our patients in the realm of pain control. But on a broader kind of perspective, do you have any recommendations on how to broach conversations with patients about cannabis use as a potential option for symptom management? Dr. Nathan Handley: Yeah, I think that's a really important question. These can be very difficult conversations. Cannabis use is something that is socially, culturally, and regulatory charged. It's very complex. And so, it can be a challenge to have these conversations. I think some general principles about how to effectively engage others, whether they're patients or friends or colleagues can be really helpful. So, I often reflect on this dictum from Stephen Covey, who is the author of this book called, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. In this book, he describes the fifth habit as being, “Seek first to understand then to be understood.” So, basically, what he's saying is if your goal is to motivate others, you have to understand where they're coming from before you can meaningfully affect their behavior. So, this sentiment is really a core principle behind the technique called motivational interviewing, which can be very useful to help motivate behavior change in patients and understand where patients are coming from, at the start of a conversation even. So, this technique is really built on 4 foundational principles. And those are acceptance, which is essentially empathizing with the patient, recognizing that they are an important participant in their own care. They're really the driver of their own care. Compassion, which is really emphasizing the well-being of the patient first and foremost. Collaboration, which is partnering with the patient, and not necessarily having a paternalistic relationship with them. And then curiosity, which is about understanding a patient's behaviors and motivations in a non-judgmental way. And so, I think this is really important because it can lead to openness when having a conversation with a patient. So, this has been summed up more simply as “Don't tell. Ask.” So, the idea with motivational interviewing, is you need to be open to understanding where a patient is, and this approach can be taken with 4 steps. So, first, you, you just listen, there's interesting data about how clinicians and physicians spend a lot of time talking in interactions with patients, and not as much time listening. And then we may have a tendency to jump in very quickly and be uncomfortable with silence. And so, this is just a real opportunity to just be open to patients and hear them to understand what pre-existing perceptions they may have. And so, it's hard to have a conversation with a patient about cannabis, if you think that they are going to be very open to it. And it turns out that 5 minutes into the conversation, they have some really deeply held reservations about the use of cannabis. So, first, you engage and listen to them to understand where they're coming from. And then you can focus. You can focus specifically on what the patient's goals are with respect to treatment, with something—in this case with cannabis. What are they hoping to get out of it? Is it improved pain management? Is it some other symptom that they're seeking? And then you can kind of evoke, this next step is evoking what their motivations are? Why do they want to improve this particular component of their treatment? Why did they want to feel better in this way? What are they hoping to achieve? And then, once you've kind of gotten through that groundwork, you can then plan together about how best to approach, in this case, cannabis use, in a way that is mutually agreeable, you can come to a plan together. And this approach epitomizes the concept of shared decision making where this is a conversation that happens together and between 2 people with the interest of the patient kept, first and foremost. Dr. John Sweetenham: Great advice. Thank you! Dr. Worster, just before we close up, you did mention earlier 1 potential resource for oncologists who need guidance on how to safely use cannabis for palliative pain management. Do you have any other recommendations in terms of resources that can be helpful to them? Dr. Brooke Worster: Yeah, absolutely. I wish there were a lot more here. And truth be told, we're still working hard to certainly develop the body of research and then disseminate it in terms of education. But if people are interested, there are increasing amounts of continuing medical education (CME) options that are out there. Each state that has medically legal or medically approved cannabis use on their state websites will have recommended or required depending on which state, I practice in Pennsylvania, and there are required CME courses that you need to take. But all of the states have different ones that are either recommended or required, and that's certainly an easy place to start in terms of some quality education. Thanks to the work that you and others are doing. I think it's certainly coming out through various oncology publications and multimedia access and things like that. And we also have, and some other academic centers around the country now have, online certificate and Master's programs that if people are really interested, they can kind of dive in and take courses or even get a certificate in cannabis medicine or cannabis science, things like that, to help them feel a lot more educated and informed. Dr. John Sweetenham: Well, I'd like to thank you both for sharing your insights with us on the podcast today. And also, for the valuable research that you've been doing on this topic. This is something that I'm sure is going to gain increasing importance to us all in elevating the awareness of this among the oncology community is really important. Thank you for the work that you're doing. Dr. Brooke Worster: Absolutely. Thank you for having us. Dr. Nathan Handley: Yes, thank you. A pleasure!

This is the third episode of our mini-series in partnership with Quickbase. Last week in Episode 2, “Control,” I was joined by Alex Pederson to talk all about the solar industry. We discussed the increasing importance of generating renewable energy sources; the challenges of ensuring efficiency and connectivity, whilst meeting high demand; the power of low-code development in complex industries; and exactly how Quickbase can centralize scattered workflows to help scale your operations quickly, safely and securely. Today in Episode 3, “Connect,” I'm joined by Jacob MacIntrye to explore the complex world of construction; the challenges of keeping projects on time and budget, amidst supply chain and labor disruption; the importance of building stakeholder trust; and exactly how Quickbase can equip your team with real-time information to streamline processes, ensure compliance and improve communication.   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [02.05] An introduction to Jacob, his background and experience in the construction industry. “With that job comes a lot of software… whether you like it or not – and a lot of folks don't like it!” [03.24] How Jacob discovered Quickbase, why he decided to join them, and his passion for combining his industry experience with Quickbase technology to help others. “Difficulties in the supply chain come down to difficulties in the communication – when you want to track pipe, what you're really wanting to do is track the information and communication between the parties.” [08.56] From supply of materials to rising costs, a closer look at the challenges the construction industry is facing right now. [12.20] The impact of fines and compliance violations, and Jacob's thoughts on how the industry could start to better predict project delays. “The planners need better tools: a lot of times you'll find them just tracking things in spreadsheets. They've got their major systems but the only other thing they have are spreadsheets, so there's nothing in the middle to give that robust connection.” [16.10] A closer look at Quickbase's Construction Management Software, what it does and how it helps to address key industry challenges. [19.47] The types of customer that Quickbase works with. “We've been around a long time, so we have owner-operators that have 10 employees, and we work with half of the fortune 100 - we have a huge range of customers that need that flexible middle.” [21.41] The complexity of documentation and data management, and how Quickbase achieves the balance of being flexible, but also robust enough to house and manage complex, ever-changing data in a secure and easy to use way. “When people get nervous about where their data goes, I always remind them ‘well, it's all going into Excel right now!' … People are taking data out of their ERP, dumping it into Excel and sharing it with people – that's not secure or governed in any way, but people seem to overlook that!” [25.11] Quickbase's approach to trust and collaboration, and the importance of building long-term relationships. [27.41] A customer case study detailing how Quickbase software was able to connect multiple stakeholders to achieve project success. [30.46] The next steps for working with Quickbase, or giving their software a try.

We've bought an NFT that's in the mint phase every day for the last 6 months on our path to 365 days ending on 11.11.22. We minted on 15 blockchains with a wide variety of projects from pfp, music NFTS, fashion, gaming, P2E and of course one of one art. Yesterday's purchase for #Mint365 was this amazing light-painting by the powerful duo @ericparephoto & @kimhenry.dance This art is simply stunning but their story and experience as creators in Web 2.0 and now Web 3.0 is equally amazing. And you're in luck as today's #NFT364 episode 188 is an interview @isocialfanz did with the two of them and it's 55 minutes or amazing insights that will inspire you no matter what type of creator or artist you are.. Some highlights from the interview:  Started in the 360 studio, started playing with strobe lights, which moved to flash light, then eric went to make the first video with the tubes and it went viral. Next, they moved outdoors and that's when the pictures really started to take off. You have to be super quick to change the settings cameras and make sure your foot prints are not noticed in the shot. They went from a small tiny studio to traveling the world taking pictures. One day they came up with the idea to use a tube that lights up, and if used the right way would leave an incredible light trace. They have 8 people on the team doing camera work, making these tubes and creating the production. Minted 9 images sold out within a week for their first launch, they have dropped 12 collections so far. Some with great success and others a slower burn. They've had a great time work with the Sloica platform with no issues. Collaboration sounds exciting but it not as easy. But in the long run looking forward to it Give our amazing guests a follow:  Long-exposure 1/1 photography: https://nightreflection.com Kim Henry: https://kimhenry.dance Eric Paré: https://ericpare.com Instagram: @kimhenry.dance @ericparephoto Twitter: @kimhenrydance @ericpare Ps.

Laurie is a a Professor of Organizational Behavior and Theory and director of the Collaboration and Conflict Research Lab at Carnegie Mellon University. Ten years ago, her friend and economist Linda Babcock sent out a plea to her female colleagues – like herself, they were crushed by taking on too many tasks, and saw how they were trailing behind their male counterparts. They met at a restaurant to share stories and vowed to say no to requests that pulled them away from the work that mattered most. This was the beginning of The No Club. Laurie shares personal stories and new research on:   Why unrewarded work more often falls to women  How "organizational currency" creates NPTs at companies How organizations must change to distribute and reward work fairly How culture and management contribute to NPTs, with actionable ways to correct the imbalance Connect with Laurie and team at https://www.thenoclub.com/.

Last week, word got out that Patrick Rue, the founder of The Bruery in Orange County California, and more recently the founder and operator of Erosion Wines in Napa had acquired a 50 percent stake in Moonlight Brewery, a beloved northern California brewery founded 30 years ago by Brian Hunt.  Moonlight is known for its beers like Death & Taxes and Reality Czech and had been half owned by Lagunitas via Heineken for the past six years.  I first learned of the news via Beer by BART, a great site run by Gail Ann Williams and Steve Shapiro. If you're not already following them on social media, rectify that quickly.  A subsequent press release release from the brewery noted that “Patrick will serve in an advisory capacity and will direct an oak barrel-aging beer program that enhances the integrity and heritage of Moonlight.”  It continued by saying that under the Heineken co-ownership Moonlight "packaging shifted from exclusively draft to additionally offering beers in cans, and both production and distribution have grown all while keeping sales limited to Northern California.  The new ownership strengthens Moonlight's dedication to remaining locally owned. This will allow for patient growth, greater availability of its coveted beers to its fans and wholesale partners, while maintaining the deliciousness and highest quality for which Moonlight is so well known.” Press release aside, in this episode we hear from the owners directly.  This Episode is sponsored by:Cigar City Brewing Co.Check out Fancy Papers from Cigar City Brewing. With aromas of freshly cut grass and tangerine along with white wine grape and bread-like aromas, this Hazy IPA has flavors of guava, melon, and lime leaf.

She's recently the co-author of a NEJM Perspectives piece: Health Care Safety during the Pandemic and Beyond — Building a System That Ensures Resilience In today's episode, Dr. Cardo talks with host Mark Graban, about topics and questions including: Why should we aim beyond merely “getting better” and why should we be aiming for Zero Harm? Aim for “perfect healthcare with no harm? What are some practices that are not evenly distributed across the US? Working previously with PRHI - Ken Segel and Paul O'Neill? 70% decrease in harm showed what's possible Preventing preventable infections or ALL infections?? What is the role of CDC in promoting and partnering with healthcare organizations on patient safety? How has that evolved? Policies to incentivize - transparency and accountability Aligning payment to results… most countries aren't there yet Please tell us how the CDC partners with CMS, AHRQ, and other federal agencies? With private advocacy groups? Focusing on Americans, CDC is a global leader — Collaboration or learning from similar organizations in other countries that are focused on patient safety? Lessons from the Covid pandemic? As you wrote about in the NEJM, why have we seen more patient safety problems recently, including more falls, more infections, more pressure ulcers in hospitals and SNFs? You and your co-authors wrote the recent trends “severely suggests that our health care system lacks a sufficiently resilient safety culture and infrastructure.” Disparities and equity - not just access to care, but “quality care” Moving forward, what evidence would you expect to see if we DID have a “sufficiently resilient safety culture and infrastructure”?

Since 2015, loneliness has been on the rise in the United States, particularly among Generation Z and millennials. According to YouGov, one-third of American millennials say they are lonely all of the time or most of the time. In this podcast, we are joined by Ryan Jenkins and Steven Cohen, co-founders of Less Lonely. They talk about how loneliness is on the rise, especially among the younger generations. What are the reasons for this increase in loneliness, and how do these reasons reflect the difficulties of forming human relationships in today's world, when technology is developed for convenience rather than connections? Key Takeaways - Increase awareness for loneliness in individuals, leaders, and organization - Three big reasons why Gen Zs are the loneliest generation - The future challenges of having human connections with each other - Addressing loneliness and how to overcome it Quote Takeaways “Loneliness is similar to hunger; it is a biological indication that you need to eat, and loneliness is a biological cue that you need to connect.” - Steve “Loneliness is not the absence of people necessarily, but it's the absence of connection” - Ryan Books in Techs Mentioned in The Episode Books: Connectable: How Leaders Can Move Teams From Isolated to All In Amazon | Goodreads Tribes by Sebastian Junger Amazon | Audible Sites: Lesslonely.com Case for Connection Podcast Speakers of this Episode ️Ryan Jenkins, CSP | Profile | Linkedin WSJ Bestselling Author | Keynote Speaker | #1 Thought Leader on Workplace Loneliness | Generations, Gen Z & Future of Work Expert Ryan-jenkins.com Lesslonely.com ️Steven Van Cohen, MS | Linkedin WSJ Bestselling Author, Loneliness Eradicator, Leadership Whisperer, L&D Magician Lesslonely.com Synclx.com ️Michael Kurland | Linkedin CEO and Founder of Branded Group, Inc., Host of "Be Better with Michael Kurland" podcast www.branded-group.com A Word from Our Host Thank you for tuning in.

He led the acquisition efforts on behalf of investment groups for two Major League Baseball franchises and executed both the acquisition and sale of the Seattle Seahawks.

Key Highlights: [00:01 - 12:21] Developing Spaces for the Glory of Sports John Loar is the managing director at Music City Baseball, responsible for all the day-to-day business operations at the company. Nashville is a good location for a sports and entertainment complex because it has a high demand for tourist attractions and its economy is growing.  It is possible to have a variety of opportunities to participate in sports, and you want to look at a covered condition facility where you can accommodate that. . [12:20 - 31:44] Collaboration for Adding Value is the Key John talks about how his team is considering partnering with a historically black college or university in the area. MLB is trying to find ways to keep the fans engaged, especially younger ones, and they believe in creating a fan experience rather than just relying on game length or broadcast timing. However, there are still some challenges that new ballpark developments face, such as real estate issues and the potential for relocation. MLB is working to address these challenges.  [31:45 - 33:16] Closing Segment The conversation spurred questions from 25-year-old sports fans, so the population is engaged.  Key Quote: “How can you be a value-add?.. Tie in the hospitality component in that and add to the overall experience that people are having in this market, bringing their conventions, coming here for sports, and just coming here to see people perform." - John Loar Connect with John: Website: https://www.mlbmusiccity.com/ (https://www.mlbmusiccity.com/)  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nashvillestars/?hl=en (@nashvillestars) Connect with me onhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-c-adams/ ( LinkedIn)!

We are moving on to the next Storyteller Type in our 5 part series, and this one is the Artisan. Many in the STORY community will identify as Artisans because they are deeply passionate about their art and the story it tells those who view or interact with it. From paint on canvas, to carefully crafted lines in poetry, to movement of bodies through dance, to notes that seem to float off of sheet music, Artisans use a variety of mediums to intertwine their heart and message.  This is exactly why we wanted to kick off the Artisan series with Academy Award Winning costume designer, Ruth Carter. She has dreamt up the way her costumes and designs guide and deepen the stories of those that wear them. Her work has been featured in movies such as Selma, Malcolm X, and Black Panther to name a few, and she is not only brilliant, but deeply connected to the way that costumes tell stories of their own. Don't miss this conversation, and all the wisdom shared that you can apply to the stories you tell, regardless of the way you create.

Should Therapists Correct Clients? Curt and Katie chat about whether therapists should correct clients who use offensive language. We look at what we should consider when addressing what clients say (including treatment goals and the relationship), how therapists can take care of themselves to be able to treat clients who hold a different worldview, and how (and when) therapists can address problematic language appropriately. Transcripts for this episode will be available at mtsgpodcast.com! In this podcast episode we talk about whether therapists should call out their clients on words they find inappropriate We decided to address the language that clients use in session and what to do when we find the language offensive or harmful. Should therapists correct clients when they use language we find offensive or harmful? Blank slate or “join your clients” approaches Whether the language should be addressed when it doesn't align with a client's stated treatment goals Showing up as a human and addressing the therapeutic relationship Judgment or shaming that can happen with clients What should therapists consider when addressing what clients say? The relationship between the therapist and client Relevance to clinical goals The impact on trust in the therapeutic alliance The importance of using the client's language to affirm their experience The power differential between therapist and client How can therapists show up with clients who see the world differently than they do? Addressing objectification of therapist's identities Assessing when therapists are centering their own experience versus responding to what is in the room Using the relationship to process client's perspective “I feel like just living in the client's world without honoring my own experience at all doesn't feel quite right. But centering my experience feels wrong.” – Katie Vernoy What can therapists do to appropriately address problematic language with their clients? Process what is being said before correcting specific words Address within the relationship and within the treatment goals Using our own coping skills to be able to navigate what our clients bring to session “I'm very worried that therapists don't have enough of their own coping skills to deal with these things coming up in sessions. Where they feel that they have to shut these clients down for the protection of themselves. You know, their only coping mechanism seems to be – I need to escape working with clients that don't already agree with my worldview.” – Curt Widhalm Where social justice plays a role (and maybe shouldn't) Education and supporting the client's whole development Assessing the impact of these interventions (both positive and negative) Assessing the harm in not pointing out bias or harmful language   Our Generous Sponsors for this episode of the Modern Therapist's Survival Guide: Turning Point Financial Life Planning Turning Point Financial Life Planning helps therapists stop worrying about money.

In this episode, Melissa shares her “favorite mistake” story about the pattern of “not taking care of who I am as a person, not pursuing the things that bring me joy.” How did she come to see this pattern? Are mistakes like this just “part of the process” or are they to be avoided? How does she make sure she doesn't fall back into that trap? We also talk about questions and topics including: Were you sort of going through life in autopilot? Finding the fix — looking within or to others? How to make sure you don't fall back into that trap? As easy as avoiding a corporate job? When things aren't going well — double down? – Or rest, take time?

Adrianna and Tim had read all the parenting books. (And I mean ALL the books.)   But NOTHING seemed to be working.   They were still feeling frustrated with their kids on a very regular basis.   And their kids were fighting what seemed like every second of the day.   They joined the Parenting Membership last May, and the transformation our community has seen in them has been profound.   The shift started after we had a consult about their youngest daughter's difficult behavior, which we realized was a sign of her unmet needs. (I do these 1:1 (or 1:2!) consults on a regular basis for members when I see them struggling with an issue that just can't be addressed in writing.)   Ideas percolated. They increased the amount of 1:1 time they were spending with her, doing things she liked to do.   They attended a couple of group coaching calls and we talked more about their specific situation.   Things improved a bit.   But then it all came to a head when Adrianna posted in the community about her children's fighting, which had become more intense than ever.   A whole lot of parents chimed in with ideas to support them, which are grounded in the ideas I'd previously discussed with her - but sometimes you need to hear things in a different way, with stories from parents who have just recently been through the same difficult stuff you're experiencing, and they made it out the other side.   Suddenly something clicked for Adrianna. She started to see her children's needs in a way she hadn't before, and she started having super explicit conversations with them about their needs, and also her needs.   And then the magic started to happen, firstly in interactions between either Adrianna or Tim and their oldest child, Bodhi:     Then the two children began using these problem solving tools between themselves. All of a sudden these two children who had literally been tearing each other's hair out could identify their own needs, and each other's needs, and find solutions that work for both of them. And they're five and three years old!     And all of this happened in what Adrianna calls the most supportive, least judgmental corner of the internet:     I invited Adrianna and Tim to tell us about their journey on the podcast.   Their response - delivered in unison - when I asked them: “So you'd read all the books, and you had so many doubts that ANYTHING could work for you…so why on earth did you join the membership?” was priceless.   The Parenting Membership is now open for enrollment If parenting feels really hard, and it seems like you've read all the books and you've asked for advice in free communities and you're tired of having to weed through all the stuff that isn't aligned with your values to get to the few good nuggets, then the Parenting Membership will help you out. https://www.yourparentingmojo.com/parentingmembership ()
