Dr. Stacey Hettes joins Let's Talk Memoir for a conversation about therapeutic writing and how she crafted a memoir about childhood sexual abuse without revictimizing herself, metabolizing childhood trauma, inviting readers into our physiological response, the role of our limbic systems, deciding whether to share specifics about abuse in our manuscripts, italicizing difficult material for readers so they can decide, approaching a story of child sexual abuse in a protective way, putting therapy into our memoirs, demonstrating our character's progress in our narrative, remembering we can write beautifully about hard things, and her new memoir Dispatches from the Couch.   Also in this episode: -sharing a memoir with family -the amygdala and child trauma victims -deciding whether to share specifics about abuse   Books mentioned in this episode: -Bodywork by Melissa Febos -Wintering by Catherine May -Writing a Woman's Life by Caroline G.

She holds a PhD from the University of California, Riverside, and is the youngest winner to date of the Milliken Award for Excellence in the Teaching of Science. Her classes are difficult because life is difficult. They are also full of wonder, joy, and triumph because, like her students, she is a hard-working seeker. She relishes in shared struggle and shared discovery, even when the topic is long-buried child sexual abuse. Reemerging from the shadows of her past was only possible once she resolved to carry the story found in her Debut memoir, Dispatches from the Couch, into the light.

Today's Lake and Shed framed conversation is about the Jack Thorne play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Nick reviews the history of how Rowling was sold on the idea of a Wizarding World stage production via a bit of bait and switch marketing and John reads the review of the Jack Thorn script by Pepperdine English Professor James Thomas. Neither John nor Nick is a big fan of the play but their back and forth about the several controversies connected with it and the question of its being “the eighth Harry Potter story” are still challenging and fun.New to the Lake and Shed Kanreki Birthday series? Here's what we're doing:On 31 July 2025, Joanne Murray, aka J. K. Rowling and Robert Galbraith, will be celebrating her 60th birthday. This celebration is considered a ‘second birth' in Japan or Kanreki because it is the completion of the oriental astrological cycle. To mark JKR's Kanreki, Dr John Granger and Nick Jeffery, both Nipponophiles, are reading through Rowling's twenty-one published works and reviewing them in light of the author's writing process, her ‘Lake and Shed' metaphor. The ‘Lake' is the biographical source of her inspiration; the ‘Shed' is the alocal place of her intentional artistry, in which garage she transforms the biographical stuff provided by her subconscious mind into the archetypal stories that have made her the most important author of her age. You can hear Nick and John discuss this process and their birthday project at the first entry in this series of posts: Happy Birthday, JKR! A Lake and Shed Celebration of her Life and Work.Tomorrow? Another work with Rowling's name on the cover that is the not the work she wrote! Nick and John take a Lake and Shed long look at the screenplay for the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them film. On the Lake side of things, Nick explores the genesis of this movie franchise (and finds The Blind Pig speakeasy in Rowling's home!). John lays out the twelve scenes cut from Rowling's shooting script to make the case that what was published as ‘The Original Screenplay' was a Reader's Digest condensed version of her story, one that “fit the woman to the dress.”Links to posts mentioned in today's Lake and Shed conversation for further reading:* Pepperdine's Premiere Potter Pundit James Thomas Reviews Jack Thorne's ‘Harry Potter and the Cursed Child'* Re-Hashing, Re-working, and Resurrection: The Cursed Child and Why Authors Cannot Settle for Re-Visiting their Texts.* Rowling's Pregnancy Traps: Bellatrix Lestrange and the Cursed Child Delphini* New ‘Cursed Child' Condensed Version: Will the New Play's Script Be Published?* Cursed Child and HogwartsProfessor Fan Fiction post Deathly Hallows* Cursed Child: Rowling Video Testimony* MuggleNet Academia: Four Hogwarts Professors Discuss ‘Cursed Child'* Reading, Writing, Rowling Episode 12: Serious Readers Talk About Cursed Child Performances in NYC, London* Guest Post: PotterPundit at Cursed Child* Voldemort, Delphini, and Oedipus: Complex Folks and Cursed Children* Meta-Potter: Is ‘Cursed Child' Harry Potter Canon or Something Else?The eleven HogwartsProfessor birthday videos posted thus far in this series can be read at the links below:* A Lake and Shed Reading of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone* A Lake and Shed Reading of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets* A Lake and Shed Reading of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban* A Lake and Shed Reading of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire* A Lake and Shed Reading of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix* A Lake and Shed Reading of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince* A Lake and Shed Reading of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows* A Lake and Shed Reading of Casual Vacancy* A Lake and Shed Reading of Cuckoo's Calling* A Lake and Shed Reading of The Silkworm* A Lake and Shed Reading of Career of Evil Get full access to Hogwarts Professor at hogwartsprofessor.substack.com/subscribe

286: We are talking about abortion, but not only about whether it's right or wrong, but about both the mental and physical health effects abortion has on the mother. These effects aren't just temporary, but lifelong, and may not even appear until decades after the woman has the abortion. I have Seth Gruber on the show, who is THE top pro-life activist in my opinion, and founder of The White Rose Resistance, author of the book and movie The 1964 Project, as well as a husband and father. Whether you are pro-life or pro-choice, this episode exposes hidden facts about how abortion affects a woman's health FOREVER. We are talking about breast cancer, sepsis, mental issues, and so much more that most, if not all, women are not aware of nor informed about prior to getting an abortion. Topics Discussed: → Protecting women's health! → Breast cancer linked to abortion → Mental health → Is the abortion pill more dangerous than giving birth? → Financial ties in planned parenthood  → Increased risk for miscarriages later in life → Is having an abortion to save a mother required?  As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.  And if you like this show, please share it, rate it, review it and subscribe to it on your favorite podcast app.  Sponsored By: → Timeline | They're offering my audience a 20% discount on all first-time purchases!

It's learning to tune into different dimensions of what your team is saying. In today's episode, discover the four authentic listening patterns that unlock creativity, trust, and real breakthroughs.   To find out more about my work, please visit www.danawilliamsco.com LinkedIn Instagram Email: hello@danawilliamsco.com The Strengths Journal™ is the only Gallup-certified, purpose-driven daily planner that helps you actively use your strengths to plan your days.
