In this Think Thursday episode, Molly explores reminiscing as more than nostalgia. After returning from a family reunion, she reflects on how shared stories can reconnect us with earlier versions of ourselves and remind us of the courage, humor, resilience, and connection that are still part of who we are. Key Points Reminiscing is not just remembering events; it is reconnecting with identity, meaning, and emotion.  Autobiographical memories help us understand our personal life story and the versions of ourselves we have been.  Family stories can preserve shared identity by reminding us what we value, what we survived, and how we belong to one another.  Healthy reminiscing can support behavior change by reminding us that our current emotional state is not the whole story.  Reminiscing is different from rumination. Rumination loops in shame or regret, while reminiscing helps us integrate the past with curiosity and compassion.  The past can be a courtroom or a library: rumination puts us on trial, but reminiscing helps us retrieve something useful. Science Mentioned The hippocampus helps organize memory and context.  The medial prefrontal cortex is involved in self-reflection and personal meaning.  The default mode network becomes active when we think about ourselves, our past, our future, and the stories that shape our lives.  Erik Erikson's stage of integrity versus despair describes the process of looking back over life and making meaning from both joys and losses. Think Thursday Invitation Take ten minutes to intentionally reminisce.  Look through old photos, listen to a meaningful song, ask a family member to tell a story, or think about a place you used to love.  Ask yourself:  What version of me was present in that memory?  What mattered to me then?  What does this memory remind me is still part of me?  What is one small way I could bring that version of myself into today? Closing ThoughtLooking back is not always about wanting to go backward. Sometimes reminiscing helps us gather pieces of ourselves we forgot we could bring forward. ★ Support this podcast ★

Okay, I have to be honest with you — this episode came straight from my soul (and from a week on a Princess cruise with my mom, which… let's just say it was illuminating).If you've ever second-guessed a decision the moment someone raised an eyebrow. If you've ever needed five people's opinions before you could feel okay about a choice you already made. If you've ever wondered why, despite being a smart, capable adult, you just can't seem to trust yourself — this episode is going to feel like a warm hug and a lightbulb moment at the same time.I'm sharing what I realized about my own self-trust patterns on this trip, why so many of us struggle with this (spoiler: it goes back to childhood), and the actual, practical ways you can start rebuilding that trust — not through some dramatic transformation, but through the tiniest everyday decisions.There's also a really important reframe in here that I don't want you to miss: self-trust doesn't mean nobody ever disagrees with you. It means their disagreement no longer destabilizes you. That distinction changed everything for me, and I think it will for you too.Whether you're someone who overthinks every decision, constantly seeks reassurance, or just feels weirdly disconnected from knowing what you actually want — this one's for you.**********Timestamps:0:00 — Welcome to Cultivate Your Joyful Life1:21 — The teaser: what happens when someone asks "what do you want?" and you genuinely don't know1:22 — Back from a Princess cruise — and why traveling with family hits different when you've done inner work3:08 — Introducing today's topic: Why You Don't Trust Yourself4:17 — The Ram Dass quote that perfectly summed up the trip4:28 — How our childhood shapes our ability to trust ourselves as adults4:27 — Erik Erikson's 8 Stages of Development: the "autonomy vs. shame and doubt" stage explained7:28 — What it looks like when your choices are constantly corrected, criticized, or overridden (very personal examples here)7:42 — What happens when you grow up never being asked what you want — the story about my cousin Jacob11:00 — Self-trust can be rebuilt — here's how I started11:27 — Why I subconsciously moved to California right after college (I didn't even realize this until now)13:42 — The home purchase that changed things: buying a house without asking anyone's opinion first13:42 — Self-trust doesn't mean no one disagrees with you — it means the disagreement no longer destabilizes you16:49 — Reframing past "bad" decisions: they're not proof you can't be trusted, they're how you learned16:49 — Every decision is either a lesson or a celebration16:49 — Rebuilding self-trust starts small — ordering what you want, choosing the restaurant, buying clothes without polling your group chat17:52 — You are allowed to build a life based on your own values, preferences, and truth19:57 — Re-parenting yourself and giving your inner child the encouragement she never got19:57 — Why having my daughter Zoe has been one of the most healing things for my own self-trust journey21:37 — Wrapping up + final encouragement: start small, drop the good/bad labels, and trust the decision you make with the information you have right now22:23 — Thanks for tuning in + how to connect and follow along**********Resources & Links:Apply for a Strategy Call: cultivitae.com/applyLearn more about Inner Magic (6-month program): cultivitae.comFollow Emily on social: @cultivitaeYou might also love:Ep. 044 — Normal Hard vs. Soul-Crushing HardEp. 043 — Why you can't figure out what you want anymoreEp. 042 — Why You Can't Make Yourself Do the Thing

In this episode, we explore Erik Erikson's stage of psychosocial development known as Identity vs. Role Confusion and discuss why adolescence is such a critical time for developing confidence, independence, and a strong sense of self. Designed for caregivers of teens, this episode examines healthy ways parents can support identity development through encouragement, communication, and appropriate autonomy, while also addressing how overly strict or controlling parenting styles may unintentionally interfere with a teen's ability to discover who they are.

這集我們聊聊發展心理學大師艾瑞克森（Erik Erikson）最關鍵的生命課題：「傳承與停滯」。 我們要拆解中年危機背後那種「不再被需要」的集體恐懼， 為什麼 40 到 65 歲是「傳承與停滯」的戰場？拆解不再被需要的心理窒息感。 傳承不只是生小孩，而是透過生產與創造，讓你的精神特質在他人生命中跳動。 為什麼只為自己而活的人，生活滿意度會隨著年齡快速崩跌？ 什麼是「代際緩衝者」？有一種最高級的傳承，是決定讓家族的痛苦到我為止。 在幫助他人照亮前路時，看見更有價值的自己。 -- - - - -

THIS IS PART TWO - Listen to part one hereCONTENT HEADS UP:  This episode contains discussions of death, dying, end-of-life care, and sensitive topics related to mortality, including chosen suicide and medicalization of death and illness. Listener discretion is advised, especially for individuals who may find these topics distressing or triggering. Please prioritize your emotional well-being while engaging with this content.Also, Ali wants to note that when she asks Karen about her thoughts on suicide, she meant to make a disctinction between “chosen” suicide (when someone wants to live but they are in too much physical pain/their body is too deteriorated without hope of recovery) and “suicide under duress” (meaning due to emotional/psychological/spiritual pain, that may or may not be accompanied by an unavoidably dying body, the person does not want to live). Of course facing a death someone does not want can also be considered duress!  SYNOPSIS:What does good acting and dying have in common? In this episode, Ali discusses all things death, dying, and living as bodies with Karen Bellone, Certified End-of-Life Doula and Death Educator. They focus on the interconnectedness of life and death, the significance of conscious living, and the complexities of end-of-life care. Karen shares her experiences working with dying individuals, highlighting the challenges of the dying process, including issues related to dementia and Alzheimer's. They discuss the importance of compassionate and holistic approaches to end-of-life care, emphasizing the need for conscious decision-making aligned with personal values to achieve a good death without regrets. Throughout the conversation, they reflect on the essence of embodiment and the importance of being present in the moment, trusting the intelligence of the body to embrace a richer life and ultimately a better death.  ALI & KAREN EXPLORATION POINTS:-  The concept of a 'good death,' this discussion emphasizes the significance of conscious decision-making and holistic approaches to end-of-life care, challenging societal norms and perceptions surrounding death.  -  The complexities, ethical considerations and medicalization surrounding end-of-life decisions, highlighting the need for open dialogue and support for individuals facing such choices.-  The role of a Death Doula, illuminating the profound support and guidance provided by these compassionate professionals in assisting individuals and families through the dying process, fostering a sense of empowerment and comfort.-  How our physical and emotional bodies communicate and play integral roles in the dying process, highlighting the importance of listening to and honoring the body's wisdom. -  Insights into embracing conscious living, pursuing meaningful experiences, and aligning actions with personal values to cultivate a sense of fulfillment and purpose.-  Sensory experiences shape our perception of life and death, emphasizing the significance of sensory elements in the dying process and fostering connections with loved ones.To be an angel to the podcast, click here: To read more about the podcast, click here: MORE ALI MEZEY:Website BODY MAPPING VIDEO LIBRARYPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course informationTransgenerational Healing FilmsMORE KAREN BELLONE:Film Website: Website: The Seventh Sense BIO:Founder, Doula, Educator: Karen Bellone, MFA, is a Certified End-of-Life Doula and Death Educator.

From Barbara Robertson What is 2nd Night Syndrome? 2nd-night syndrome is a common feature of newborn behavior. It typically occurs on the 2nd night after birth, when the baby’s behavior shifts from sleepiness to greater wakefulness, often asking to nurse frequently. Our colleague, Jan Barger, has discussed this. In her description of this she says, “All of a sudden, your little one discovers that he's no longer back in the warmth and comfort – though a bit crowded – womb where he has spent the last 9 months – and it is SCARY out here!” No wonder babies are upset!” Correct! Infants are upset, but our takeaway message to families is that this is normal and your baby is fine. And, happily, there are things you can do that may help. What does 2nd Night Syndrome look like? The key sign of this is that the baby wants to be held continually and nursed frequently. This is expected behavior. The baby is shifting from being fed through the umbilical cord and held constantly in the womb, to now needing to eat themselves and realizing they are not always being held. People often classify this behavior as “fussy” or “starving”. Suzanne Colson discussed infants needing to transition from the womb to the world. The baby was warm, fed, and cuddled 24/7 in the womb, and in Western society, we tend to try to put the baby down, away from us, to sleep. As the baby becomes more alert, they instinctively know this isn’t where they belong. They are safest in their birthing parent’s arm, right next to their food source for easy access. The baby may appear more wakeful, irritable, and cry more frequently. They want to cluster-feed, nursing for long periods of time and/or in short, frequent bursts, especially in the evening or at night. Again, they seek constant contact and to be held. What are the theories as to why Second Night Syndrome is happening? To begin with, as mentioned, there is a significant environmental adjustment for infants. They go from a warm, cozy, noisy, dark womb to the world where noise, light, and temperature are inconsistent and often unpleasant. This change can be overwhelming for a baby. Babies in the womb are also being fed constantly, so the idea of being hungry is new as well. Their stomachs are tiny and expect frequent, small feeds. Frequent feeds also stimulate the parent’s milk supply, progressing from colostrum to transitional milk to mature milk. A review of research on secretory activation found that frequent milk removals are precisely what is needed at this point. The baby’s intake needs are going to increase over the next few days from about 0.5 oz (15 mLs) per feed to about 2-3 oz per feed in the next week. By frequently removing milk, the baby signals to the parent’s body that it is time for secretory activation, leading to a full milk supply. A fascinating study found that, among exclusive pumpers, the number of milk removals was critical for reaching and maintaining this stage. If the parent did not maintain frequent milk feedings, they would move out of secretory activation. Why does it happen in the evening and at night? One theory is that the surrounding environment is loud and chaotic during the day. If the family remains in the hospital, many staff members are in and out of the room throughout the day. It is usually bright. There are often many visitors, especially if it is the first baby. All of this can cause the baby to feign sleep, thereby appearing calm. Once the chaos subsides, the lights are dimmed, and the baby “wakes” up, ready for interaction and feeding. What can be done about Second Night Syndrome? In many ways, this increased behavior in the baby is the parent’s first opportunity to set the tone for the relationship. The parent has a choice: give the baby what they need at this moment, or fight it. Note that I used the word “need,” not “want.” The first stage of human development, according to Erik Erikson, is trust vs mistrust. Will the parent be present for the baby, or prioritize their own needs (or societal expectations) over the baby’s needs? What does the baby want? The bottom line is they want to be close to their parent. They want to be held skin-to-skin constantly. Skin-to-skin contact soothes the baby and helps them regulate their body. Make sure the baby doesn’t have mittens on. One of my interns once said that babies “see” with their hands. They also want access to their food source (the breast/chest) as often and as long as they feel they need to access it. After the baby feeds, gently shift so that the parent and the baby are comfortable. If you try to put the baby down somewhere, they will most likely wake again. If the baby is to be moved, the family should wait until the baby is in a deep (REM) sleep. The baby begins in light sleep, and if moved, they will wake. Keep in mind that infants move in and out of REM sleep more quickly than adults, approximately every 30 minutes. We encourage the parent to rest as much as possible during the day. The adage “sleep when the baby sleeps” is no joke in the early weeks. Ensuring the family has as much support as possible greatly helps, so the parents’ only primary job is to meet the baby’s needs. Getting family and friends involved is a great idea. Hiring a doula for the first week or two can be a good solution. Remember, too, during the day, keep things calm, dark, and quiet so the baby doesn’t feel the need to play possum. Using calming techniques can also be effective. Rocking, walking, shushing, and letting the baby suck are great ideas. Again, Second Night Syndrome (SNS) is a normal developmental hurdle, not an illness. The baby isn’t starving, and there is nothing wrong with the baby. The baby intuitively knows that the safest place for them to be is at or near the breast/chest. This intense need is very temporary. The sooner the family learns how to meet their baby’s particular needs, the sooner this tends to pass.

In this episode of ⁠The Tarot Diagnosis⁠, I share what happened when I found myself in a creative slump and did what I often encourage others to do…just shuffle the cards and follow what shows up. What surfaced were court cards, which led me back to a recent workshop I created on understanding the Pages, Knights, Queens, and Kings through the lens of psychosocial development and Jungian Psychoanalysis.This episode offers a glimpse into how I move beyond seeing court cards as simple personality types and instead view them as developmental archetypes that mirror real psychological stages across the lifespan. Drawing from Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development, I explore how each court card reflects key human questions like identity, intimacy, contribution, and integration, and how we revisit these stages throughout life rather than moving through them in a linear fashion.I also introduce Jungian concepts of transformation, showing how the court cards can represent the unfolding of awareness - from early insight to full integration. Along the way, I demonstrate practical exercises and tarot spreads that help translate these theories into meaningful self-reflection.In this episode, I explore:How court cards connect to Erikson's psychosocial stages of developmentWhy the Pages, Knights, Queens, and Kings reflect evolving life themesHow Jungian transformation stages deepen tarot interpretationWhat court cards reveal about identity, relationships, legacy, and personal integrationSample tarot exercises using the Ten of Swords (reversed) and the High Priestess and the Knight of Swords and Three of Pentacles Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to see the court cards as more than static figures, and instead as living psychological archetypes that mirror growth, change, and the ongoing process of becoming.You're Invited!

Nobody told you that your job title was quietly becoming your personality. Or that the moment you started thinking about leaving, you weren't just weighing pros and cons — you were grieving.This week, Pete and Tommy tackle the twin anxieties of work-life balance and quitting your job: two topics that sound like HR seminar titles but turn out to be about identity, mortality, and the specific pain of realizing you've been earning SMILES program letters instead of a raise.Tommy revisits his brief, glorious, and deeply instructive tenure at MOOVies — a cow-themed children's video store that pivoted to softcore pornography and never updated the signage — as a case study in what happens when you try to reclaim your life by taking a step sideways into something worse. Pete unpacks what psychologists James Marcia and Erik Erikson called "identity foreclosure": the unsettling discovery that leaving a job means evicting a self you didn't realize you'd moved in. And yes, there are five types of quitting. You already know which one you are.Plus: the Great Resignation by the numbers, a taxonomy of modern exits from the quiet fade to the loyalty trap, and the story of JetBlue flight attendant Steven Slater — a man who grabbed two beers and became, briefly, America's most relatable employee. ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

⚠️Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of abusive relationships and trauma recovery. If these topics are difficult for you, please listen with care.---In this episode of The Neurodivergent Creative, Caitlyn explores Erik Erikson's psychosocial stage of Intimacy vs. Isolation, the developmental stage that typically happens in our twenties.Through the lens of psychology, trauma recovery, and personal storytelling, Caitlyn examines the cultural script many of us grow up believing: Meet someone → date → move in → marry → build a life. This “relationship escalator” can feel like the default path to adulthood, especially when you're young and still figuring out who you are.If you've ever found yourself twisting into pretzels to keep a relationship, losing yourself in the process, or staying because you're afraid to be alone—this episode offers both validation and perspective.

Wie oft sagen wir sowas wie: „Ich bin gerade in so einer Phase! “, oder „Ich frage mich, was das Leben hier von mir will!“, oder auch: „Was soll ich denn damit anfangen, was gibt es hier für mich zu lernen?“ Wir sagen das ohne Nachzudenken aus dem tiefen instinktiven Wissen heraus, dass das Leben wie eine Art Reise ist, mit bestimmten Abschnitten und Stationen, oder so wie ein Buch mit verschiedenen Kapiteln. Eins hängt mit dem anderen zusammen. Und so ist es tatsächlich. Einer der bedeutendsten Entwicklungspsychologen der Welt, Erik Erikson hat dafür sogar ein eigenes Modell entwickelt und damit beschreibt er unsere Persönlichkeitsentwicklung in acht Phasen über die gesamte Lebensspanne. Jede Stufe bringt eine bestimmte Krise und damit bestimmte Anforderungen für uns und wenn wir die bewältigen, entsteht Wachstum und Reife und Identität - geschieht Entwicklung. Schält uns das Leben ab bis auf den Kern, bis auf das, was wir wirklich sind.Unsere Entwicklung folgt einem inneren Plan. Und das bedeutet nicht nur, das es vollkommen normal ist, in verschiedenen Lebensphasen ganz bestimmte innere Konflikte und Spannungsfelder zu haben, sondern es ist auch total spannend sich und das eigene auf diese Weise noch einmal ganz anders zu verstehen. Zu erkennen, was vielleicht noch ungelöst in uns ist, wo wir vielleicht noch einmal hinschauen dürfen und wo wir spüren: „Toll, das ist mir wirklich gut gelungen. Hier habe ich für mein Leben eine Lektion gelernt.“ Du merkst schon, ich bin begeistert von diesem Modell unsere Entwicklung und Reifung durchs Leben nach Erikson und ich möchte Dich damit anstecken, weil ich glaube, da könnte auch für Dich die eine oder andere Aha-Moment drinstecken.

In this episode of The Neurodivergent Creative, we keep rolling through Erik Erikson's psychosocial stages of development! We've officially reached the stage where everything feels dramatic, your body is doing weird stuff without your permission, and adults suddenly want you to “be yourself” while also punishing you for it.Welcome to Stage 5: Identity vs. Role Confusion (roughly ages 12–18)

Imposter syndrome isn't always about not being good enough. Sometimes it's about believing: “If I don't know everything, I won't be safe.”For some of us, the way we survived this stage was by becoming “the smart one.” High-achieving. High-performing. Teacher-approved. If your identity becomes “the smart one,” then not knowing something becomes dangerous.In this episode, Caitlin continues their deep dive into Erik Erikson's psychosocial stages of development and land squarely in Stage 4: Industry vs. Inferiority. This is the school-age stage. Roughly ages 5–12. The era of gold stars, spelling tests, group projects, comparison, praise, shame… and the moment many neurodivergent kids begin to feel different in ways they don't yet have language for!

In this episode, Caitlin continues the psychology mini-series on Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development. The focus is on Stage 3: Initiative vs Guilt—the developmental era where kids try things, make up games, ask why a thousand times, and learn whether their creativity is safe or shameful.We talk about how discouragement and criticism can create guilt, how neurodivergent kids get punished for being inventive, and the way early guilt can become adult executive dysfunction, perfectionism, and discomfort with doing anything “just for you.”

In this episode of The Neurodivergent Creative, Caitlin goes full “spicy brains, unpacking all the shame” and dives into why childhood development has its own pace, and why trying to rush it creates more stress for everyone.Using Erik Erikson's psychosocial stages (Trust vs. Mistrust + Autonomy vs. Shame & Doubt), Caitlin connects toddler “purple cup chaos,” risky play, and messy learning to the adult realities of people-pleasing, shame spirals, and inner child repair.We also get a Caitlin-style tour through special interests (biology, evolution, brains), a candid story about changing majors, and a big, tender reminder: kids learn through experience—and so do we.

In this episode of The Energy of Money, Dr. Maria explores Erik Erikson's Eight Psychosocial Stages of Development and why they matter far beyond childhood psychology. She explains how unresolved stages can impact fulfillment, relationships, purpose, and even our experience of money and success later in life.

Careers don't develop all at once — they unfold through psychological phases across the lifespan. And for gay men, that path often looks very different from the one straight men inherit. In this episode, Ken Howard, LCSW, CST, maps the developmental stages of a gay man's career — from early achievement and identity formation, through ambition, visibility, and midlife reassessment, to senior authority, retirement, and legacy. Drawing on Erik Erikson's lifespan psychology and over 30 years of clinical experience, he explores why many gay men tie self-worth to performance, use work as a substitute for belonging, and experience midlife not as a crisis, but as a psychological review. If you've ever felt behind, over-identified with your career, or unsure what your next chapter is supposed to be, this episode offers a developmental lens that replaces shame with context — and confusion with clarity.

Are our churches unintentionally approving exclusivity?Stu, Tim and Joel dive deep into the research behind Stu's PhD on the Shock Absorber, youth ministry and generative intergenerational ministry—and why most churches experience cultural lag that makes them irrelevant.Motivated to understand why young people leave the church, Stu shares why he started (and restarted) his PhD, using what he has learned from 20 years in youth ministry and 13 years planting Soul Revival.The conversation explores the meditative benefits of writing and walking, the imposter syndrome Stu feels in academia, and the "clown suit" metaphor—how Christians became irrelevant trying to be cool instead of just being confident in Jesus. They discuss Blue Ocean Strategy and why Soul Revival looks to be a pioneer in ministry instead of competing for the same young people.Stu explains how the PhD work has moved from "moderate intergenerational ministry" to "generative intergenerational ministry" by combining Kendra Creasy Dean's and Erik Erikson's work. This reveals the gap in youth ministry literature and highlights how the homogeneous unit principle creates a gravitational pull toward exclusivity.The Shock Absorber model flips the script: young people can experiment on how to be a Christian in new cultural contexts, while adults provide theological grounding and wisdom. It's about having both segregated youth spaces AND accessible intergenerational spaces—the fifth way of doing ministry.As Tim notes towards the end: this only works because we're co-adopted by the same Saviour, which makes humility between the generations possible.Timestamps:00:00 - Intro: the meditative benefits of writing and walking12:50 - The motivating factors behind Stu's PhD31:49 - Soul Revival helped people be confident and Christian1:00:37 - Generative intergenerational model1:25:50 - Tim's TakeawayDiscussed on this episode:Guy Goma: The Wrong GuyJenn's Interview - The IT CrowdMoving beyond the shock absorber: The place of youth ministry—past, present and future, by Stu CrawshawThe Child in God's Church, by Tim BeilharzGlenn Maxwell produces one of the greatest ODI knocks of all-timeHigh Agency, by George MackKenda Creasy DeanErik EriksonThe Generative Church, by Corey SeibelSoul Revival Late Night at Sydney Airport

Recorded live at Emory IDEAS Fest in Covington, GA on October 18, 2025, this episode brings together Rosanne Cash—four-time Grammy winner, songwriter, and Americana icon—and psychologist Dr. Robyn Fivush for a conversation about how the stories we tell across generations shape who we become. Rosanne shares the story of “The List”—the 100 essential country songs her father, Johnny Cash, gave her when she turned 18—and how a vivid dream involving Linda Ronstadt sparked her decision to leave Nashville and reinvent herself in midlife. Dr. Fivush unpacks these moments through the lens of psychology, explaining how researchers classify such turning points, or “crises,” and how Erik Erikson's theories of identity and midlife development help make sense of them. Together, they explore the overlap between Joseph Campbell's power of myth and Rosanne's work as a storyteller, and Dr. Fivush discusses her landmark dinnertime study, which found that children who grow up hearing family stories at the table tend to become more resilient and grounded adults. The episode ends on a high note as Matt and Rosanne lead the audience in a joyful sing-along—reminding us that sometimes the best way to pass down a story is through song.

In this episode of More Yourself, I wanted to share a clip from a recent ADHD Women's Wellbeing live session that explored the concept of generativity versus stagnation —a theme that is very prevalent among late-diagnosed ADHD women.This concept, rooted in Erik Erikson's psychosocial development theory, invites us to reflect on how we create meaning and contribute to our own lives and to others as we move through the different stages of adulthood. For those of us who received a diagnosis later in life, this understanding can be transformative. It reminds us that our diagnosis isn't the end, it's the beginning of a new chapter.My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!What I discuss:Erikson's 8 stages of psychosocial development viewed through a neurodivergent lens.The impact of unconscious masking on ADHD traits and energy levels.The concept of generativity vs. stagnation for late-diagnosed ADHD women.Seeing a late diagnosis as a new chapter for authenticity and evolution.The role of meaningful connection in women's reconnection with their identity post-diagnosis.The power of embracing change in midlife and beyond.Timestamps00:33 – Understanding ADHD and Psychosocial Development03:30 – Overview of Erikson's 8 Stages of Psychosocial Development05:26 – Life Stages Through a Neurodivergent Lens07:17 – Generativity vs. Stagnation Explained07:54 – Generativity as a New Chapter of Potential09:40 – Embracing Change and Authenticity12:16 – Closing Reflections and Personal GrowthJoin the More Yourself Community - the doors are now open!More Yourself is a compassionate space for late-diagnosed ADHD women to connect, reflect, and come home to who they really are.

Anesthesiologist and clinical mental health counselor Maire Daugharty discusses her article "How therapy helps uncover hidden patterns." Maire explains how psychotherapy leverages the brain's pattern-seeking nature to reveal implicit beliefs formed in early life, often outside conscious awareness. She describes how therapy provides a unique relational space for exploring assumptions, processing emotions, and reframing expectations—leading to profound shifts in self-reliance, resilience, and meaning-making. Drawing on depth psychology and Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial growth, Maire illustrates how uncovering hidden narratives can transform relationships, ease life transitions, and help individuals face aging and mortality with integrity. Listeners will learn how therapy can dismantle limiting beliefs, foster autonomy, and cultivate deeper well-being across the lifespan. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

It's Friday, September 19th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Iranian Christian denied a retrial for practicing his faith Mehran Shamloui, an Iranian Christian convert from Islam, has been denied a retrial for his case by the Iranian Supreme Court, reports International Christian Concern.  Shamloui was arrested in 2024 and, in March 2025, was sentenced to 10 years and 8 months in prison simply for participating in a house church. The charges against him included “propaganda activities contrary to Islamic law,” and “membership in groups opposing the state.”  He was released from jail after he posted bail in late 2024. He fled the country and intended to travel to Europe, but was stopped in Turkey. He was deported to Iran in July 2025 because he was missing formal documentation.  Shamloui is currently serving his sentence in Iran's Evin Prison, a notoriously deplorable institution known for mistreating its prisoners, including Christians.  Hebrews 13:3 says, “Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.” Iran is an Islamic Republic and a known persecutor of the Christian community. Bibles written in Farsi, the official language of Iran, are strictly prohibited, as is discussing Jesus with Muslims to share the gospel with them. Hadi Ghaemi, the executive director of The Center for Human Rights in Iran, said, “The Christian community in Iran is facing a crisis. The Iranian authorities are abducting growing numbers of Christians and throwing absurd national security charges at them in order to imprison them for years for doing nothing other than peacefully practicing their faith.” NY Attorney General vs. TX Attorney General over Abortion Kill Pill Far-left Democratic New York Attorney General Letitia James is intervening in Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's attempt to prosecute an abortionist for mailing abortion kill pills from one state to the other to undermine Texas's pro-life laws, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Paxton first filed his lawsuit in December 2024 against abortionist Margaret Carpenter, founder of the “Abortion Coalition for Telemedicine.”  Paxton alleged that Carpenter “unlawfully provided a Collin County resident with abortion-inducing drugs that ended the life of an unborn child and resulted in serious complications for the mother, who then required medical intervention.” Carpenter is not licensed to practice medicine in Texas. Subsequently, in February 2025, Judge Bryan Gantt of North Texas ordered Carpenter to stop sending abortion kill pills into the state and to pay a $100,000 fine. (Carpenter also faces charges out of Louisiana for the same).  So far, New York officials have protected the abortionist from consequences via the state's shield law, which bars cooperation with other states concerning laws against abortion. Paxton has challenged the shield law and sued the Ulster County, New York clerk who refused to enforce the fine. Americans celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination held accountable The Secret Service, several U.S. airlines, Office Depot, and Nasdaq said they were among more than 30 employers that have sanctioned or fired employees in reaction to their disturbing statements about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, reports The Washington Post. Regarding the Secret Service, an agent named Anthony Pough wrote on Facebook, “If you are mourning this guy .. delete me,” in reference to Kirk's killing. Pough accused Kirk of spewing “hate and racism on his show.” Roughly three dozen workers are reported to have been suspended or fired over their responses to Kirk's murder, including employees of Clemson University, MSNBC, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the Carolina Panthers. Plus, several local fire departments and school districts said they had also suspended or terminated employees over their remarks. WLBT-TV reports that Lauren Stokes, the executive assistant for the Vice Chancellor of Development at the University of Mississippi, was fired for her anti-Kirk comments. She allegedly wrote, “For decades, yt [white] supremacist and reimagined Klan members like Kirk have wreaked havoc on our communities, condemning children and the populace at large to mass death for the sake of keeping their automatic guns. … So no, I have no prayers to offer Kirk or respectable statements against violence.” WNDU reports that 18-year-old Camryn Giselle Booker, a college student at Texas Tech, was expelled after a video of her publicly celebrating Charlie Kirk's death went viral.  In the video, she is jumping around and yelling at students paying tribute to Kirk on the Lubbock, Texas campus. Listen. BOOKER: “Your homie dead. He got shot in the head. Your homie dead. He got shot in the head.” After Booker was expelled, Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott posted this comment on X. “Definitely picked the wrong school to taunt the death of Charlie Kirk. Thanks Texas Tech!” Felicia Branch, a professor at the University of Arkansas, is on administrative leave over her vile social media post, reports the Arkansas Times. She wrote, “No, I will not pull back from CELEBRATING that an evil man died by the method he chose to embrace.  Don't tell someone who has been targeted by people like him how to feel, how not to post, how not to celebrate, that he can no longer inflict his brand of evil.” She added that Kirk is “an evil person [who] is no longer on this earth causing immense suffering.” Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders has called for Professor Felicia Branch to be fired. ABC yanked Jimmy Kimmel over Charlie Kirk comments And yesterday, ABC indefinitely suspended late-night host Jimmy Kimmel for inappropriate comments he made about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, reports Newsbusters.org. Here's the soundbite from Monday night. KIMMEL: “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid, [Tyler Robinson], who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.” Conservative talk show host Erik Erikson  called out the leftist comedian. He said, “What Kimmel was doing was participating in the creation of the leftwing talking point that Kirk's assassin was on the right. He did not have to participate. [Kimmel] chose to participate and circulate what was obviously, even on Monday, a lie. On top of that, it was not funny. It was hectoring and cruel.” Erikson reported that the primary reason Kimmel is no longer on the ABC program schedule is because of the influence of Nexstar, a moderately right-leaning group of stations, that controls 32 significant ABC affiliates including New Orleans, Nashville, Syracuse, Albany, and Grand Rapids and Lansing, Michigan. Nexstar decided to stop airing Kimmel's program. Star Spangled Banner's God-honoring fourth verse And finally, on September 14, 1814, Francis Scott Key penned the immortal words of “The Star Spangled Banner.” Key was a Washington attorney sent to the British navy to secure the release of a prisoner during the War of 1812. During his mission, the British bombarded Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. The sight of the American flag continuing to fly over the fort despite the barrage inspired the verses in the song. Congress officially made it the national anthem over a hundred years later. The opening verse is well known. But the later verses are more obscure. Listen to David Hedrick, a former Marine, sing the last half of verse four. HEDRICK: “Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: “In God is our trust;” And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave.” (applause) Indeed, Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, September 19th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Mid-life crises have a bad rap.

This podcast, about Fowler's Stage 5, will be a two-part podcast. This week, we will talk about key characteristics of stage 5 and how they impact our relationships and our lives. We will also examine Erik Erikson's developmental stage 7, Stagnation vs. Generativity, to see how they complement each other. There is much to learn about ourselves, faith, spiritual maturity, and development, and it can be found by looking into these development theories.

Emily Snider, children's ministry leader from Detroit, Michigan, and a contributing author with INCM and Group Publishing,joined us for this week's episode to discuss discipling preschoolers, specifically babies and toddlers, and the importance of laying this foundation for spiritual growth.Through personal stories and shared insights into Erik Erikson's developmental stages, Emily explained how meeting a child's basic needs through an intentional approach in nursery ministry allows children to learn to trust, learning to hope, which can ultimately lead to faith formation as they develop. She covered practical ways to incorporate intentional ministry into nursery settings, such as speaking truth and love during routines.

In this episode of the Wolff Peace series, host Avis Kalfsbeek explores the psychological terrain of identity and violence. Through Erik Erikson's The Legend of Hitler's Youth, we confront how early emotional wounds, when left unaddressed, can become the foundation for radical, destructive movements. Paired with the activism of Nimko Ali—a survivor, feminist, and political changemaker—we see how reclaiming identity can become an act of peace. Her fight to end FGM and empower girls challenges systems of control at their core.

In this deeply moving episode, we are joined by Sally Raymond, a Marriage & Family Therapist and Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM), whose life was forever changed by the tragic loss of her 23-year-old son, Jon, to suicide. Through unimaginable grief, Sally embarked on a powerful journey of healing, rediscovery, and advocacy. Her book, “The Son I Knew Too Late: A Guide to Help You Survive and Thrive,” offers a raw, honest, and profoundly educational look into youth development, trust, and the emotional intelligence we all need—but often lack.Sally courageously shares how her personal tragedy became a mission to help others survive, thrive, and understand the inner world of young people. She draws from the wisdom of Erik Erikson and her own clinical training to explore how emotional wounds from childhood, unmet needs, and trust issues can silently grow into life-threatening despair.This conversation is a must-listen for parents, educators, and anyone seeking a more compassionate and informed approach to mental health, parenting, and personal growth.

In this episode, psychologist and author of The Crucial Years Dr. Sheryl Ziegler joins me to shine a light on the unique needs and challenges of raising 6-12 year olds - a period often overlooked in parenting conversations, despite being a period of massive emotional, social, and biological development.   Together we explore:   Why puberty is starting younger than ever, what's driving this trend, and how stress and environment play a critical role. How to tell when your child's “teenage” behaviors (like slamming doors or talking back) are developmentally normal versus when they may be signaling something more. How to foster self-esteem and emotional regulation using Erik Erikson's psychosocial stages as a framework. What “industriousness” versus “inferiority” means for kids—and why understanding this distinction matters so much for healthy development. How parenting styles are being shaped by the internet, social norms, and cultural messaging—and how to stay grounded in what your individual child needs. Why the pandemic had a unique impact on kids in this age range and how that continues to show up in surprising ways. Actionable strategies for parents of middle-year kids, including emotional attunement, helping them name and understand nuanced feelings, and how to have brave conversations about tough topics.   With humor, warmth, and deep clinical insight, Dr. Ziegler offers a compassionate reminder that while the middle years may fly under the radar, they are foundational—and your presence during this time matters more than you think.     LEARN MORE ABOUT MY GUEST:

In the third podcast of this series, “Brain Rot: What Our Screen Are Doing to Our Minds,” host Dr. Karyne Messina, psychologist, psychoanalyst and author talked about the problems that can emerge in Erik Erikson's Identity versus Identity Diffusion stage of development along with Dr. Harry Gill, a psychiatrist who has a PhD in neuroscience. The two mental health professionals discussed major difficulties they see in their young patients when they are exposed to too much screen time. For one thing, excessive screen time during this stage of development can have significant effects on pruning which leads to structural changes in the brain. This is a crucial process in adolescent brain development that involves the elimination of unnecessary neural connections to enhance efficiency while optimizing brain functioning. They also focused on the impact of social media on the formation of identity, a critical part of healthy personality development. Drs. Messina and Gill shared the challenges young people have navigating in the digital age, which can include exposure to people who are inauthentic on social media, role confusion, and addiction to video games. They emphasized the importance of limiting screen time, encouraging adolescents to have real-life experiences versus having mainly on-line relationships while fostering healthy habits to support brain development and overall well-being during this crucial stage of development. Dr. Messina highlighted the importance of solidifying one's identity during adolescence or early adulthood, adding that this task can be difficult to achieve later in life if it isn't developed when searching for a sense of self is a central task of development. Dr. Gill talked about ways parents can mitigate too much screen time. He suggested that they limit the time their children have access to their screens. He also believes that adolescents should have chores every day which can give them a sense of accomplishment. Watching movies and shows on television as a family was another suggestion he made. He believes that time spent discussing what everyone has seen can provide a sense of understanding that adolescents may not have while fostering a sense of community within the family.

Dr. Joel Sneed is a professor, a practicing clinical psychologist and a highly-regarded chess author. And despite a busy professional and family life, Joel has achieved the rare feat of reaching a  2000+ USCF after starting tournament chess in his 30s. But, like many of us, Joel struggles to moderate his relationship with chess. He has long held a goal of reaching USCF Master, and puts a lot of pressure on himself to make it happen quickly. This has led to a repetitive cycle of despondency and quitting, followed by resuming chess, with renewed hopes of tackling his goals. In our conversation, we speak candidly about how Joel can derive more enjoyment from chess, and about what he would advise himself if he were his own patient. Joel also touches on how to manage anxiety around tournament chess, our thoughts on IM Levy Rozman's GM-title pursuit,  and the lessons Joel learned from working with legendary Grandmaster (and co-author, GM Boris Gulko.). This was a fascinating conversation that I think will resonate with many of you.

How do childhood experiences mold our adult lives? Byron Ricks, Josh Wambrodt and Brandon Ricks invite you to explore this intriguing question on the Father Factor Podcast. Together, we promise to uncover the significant influence of childhood enablement on adulthood, featuring insights from Erik Erikson and Maria Montessori. Listen as we share personal stories, like how structured meal plans transformed our picky eaters into culinary adventurers, ready to embrace life's many flavors and challenges.As the conversation unfolds, we tackle the thorny issue of entitlement, dissecting its effects on personal relationships and society. Byron recounts an anecdote about dating someone with restricted food preferences, serving as a launching pad to examine parenting styles that cater excessively to children's whims. Through this lens, we discuss how societal attitudes towards challenges can inadvertently foster a sense of entitlement and leave individuals unprepared for adult responsibilities. By connecting these threads to everyday occurrences like road rage, we reveal the hidden complexities behind adult reactions when expectations fall short.In the final chapters, we delve into the role of parental enablement in shaping behavior. Through mentoring tales and school incidents, we highlight the consequences of a lack of boundaries and the cultural shift away from communal child-rearing practices. The episode concludes with a call to action for parents to reflect on their influence, stressing the importance of raising independent, responsible adults. We urge fathers to engage with us on our online platforms, reinforcing their indispensable role in their children's lives and inviting them to join the conversation with their unique insights.Support the show Keep in touch.Email: Brm2@fatherfactorpodcast.comFollow us on Instagram Like us on Facebookhttps://www.amazon.com/Searching-Dad-Effects-Fatherless-Overcome/dp/1934812129

Mike and Jus discuss Erik Erikson’s stages of development and how it applies to the present day. Jus explains the stages and the “pill community” and how it affects the dating pool. The fellas dig deep into why people are alone and dating is how it is presently.

Lieutenant Colonel Greg Wilson served in Vietnam & Laos as a Forward Air Controller. As a Forward Air Controller, it was his job to coordinate airstrikes, and ensure that no friendly troops were hit. After less than six months in Vietnam, he joined the classified Steve Canyon Program (Project 404), also known as the Ravens.  Laos was technically neutral during the Vietnam war, and no foreign troops were supposed to be in the country. Nonetheless, the North Vietnamese continued to use Laos in order to import supplies via the Ho Chi Minh trail. Needing to stop the flow of enemy supplies, the USAF began secret airborne operations, targeting enemy vehicles, ground troops, and weapon systems.  The Raven program was eventually developed in order to better execute these operations. Raven pilots wore civilian clothes, and their job was to mark targets with smoke rockets, and direct air strikes onto them.  In this interview, Lt Col Wilson talks about his experience as a FAC and a Raven. He tells this story about first joining the Ravens: “So, I went out for a flight with one of the Ravens, Erik Erikson, and he was in the backseat…He gave me a set of coordinates. I said, ‘Well, there's got to be something. There's got to be a trick here, because this coordinate is right in the middle of a map. I don't have to piece them together.' So, I flew to those coordinates, and he said, ‘What do you see down there?' So, I looked down and I said, ‘Well, it looks like a crashed 0-1.' He said, ‘You're right. What else do you see down there?' I said, ‘Well, I can't be sure, but I'd say that it looks like skeletal remains.' And he said, ‘You're right again. You're his replacement.' So, that was kind of my wakeup call that they figured I was a rookie. And they also, wanted to let me know that this was the real game, that there was threat here. And that if you were shot down in this environment, you were not going to be captured, you were not going to be a POW, you were going to be a fatality.” Learn more about Wilson here.

My conversation with Sudhir Kakar took place five weeks before his untimely death on April 22nd.  “Freud obviously is very brave and courageous to accept that the world is inadequate and that my desires will never be sufficiently fulfilled. My question - is this in fact the case? I think that everyone has had some kind of spiritual experience, some more than others and in many different contexts, not just religious ones. Spiritual experiences contradict Freud's notion of common unhappiness and the idea of the world as inadequate. What reason do we have to assume that all such common experiences are simply false, that they are based on some kind of false consciousness? Rather, I believe that the inadequacy lies in our own awareness rather than with the world. The world allows for many experiences that would be highly adequate yet we block them - what we call the mundane world is much more enchanted than we think it is."    Episode Description: We begin by considering the embodiment of one's cultural imagination - "one's mental representation of culture" - into one's unconscious mind. Sudhir describes different early child-rearing practices and invites the question about their influence on our later inner lives. He shares with us his early idealization of Freudian/Western ways of thinking and his later development, which returned to the enchanting aspects of his Hindu youth. We discuss the similarities and differences between a Judeo-Christian-based psychoanalysis and one founded on a Hindu imagination. We consider the different notions of God, ritual, and illusion. He distinguishes an 'autonomous person' from a 'communitarian person' and describes the pleasures and burdens of each. We close with his sharing his lovely psychoanalytic origin story connected to his meeting Erik Erikson and discovering "I want to be like him."   Our Guest: Sudhir Kakar was a psychoanalyst, scholar, and writer. He had been a Lecturer and Visiting Professor at Harvard University, Visiting Professor at the Universities of Chicago, McGill, Melbourne, Hawaii, and Vienna, Fellow at the Institutes of Advanced Study, Princeton, Berlin, and Cologne, and was on the board of Freud Archives. He had received the Kardiner Award of Columbia University, Boyer Prize for Psychological Anthropology of the American Anthropological Association, Germany's Goethe Medal, Tagore-Merck Award, McArthur Research Fellowship, and Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany. `As ‘the psychoanalyst of civilizations', the French weekly Le Nouvel Observateur listed Kakar in 2005 as one of the world's 25 major thinkers. Sudhir was the author/editor of 20 books of non-fiction and six novels. His books have been translated into 22 languages.   Recommended Readings: Kakar, Sudhir - The Indian Jungle: Psychoanalysis and Non-Western Civilizations, Karnac.

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode discusses potentially triggering topics that may include, but may not be limited to, abuse, harassment, substance use, disordered eating, self-harm, and/or suicide.Welcome back to Analyze Scripts, where a psychiatrist and a therapist analyze what Hollywood gets right and wrong about mental health. Today, we are diving in to the 2023 Oscar winning film by Yorgos Lanthimos film "Poor Things." This one's a wild ride! Beyond the beautiful award winning costuming, stunning sets, and all-star cast including Oscar winner Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe and Ramy Youssef, this film is rich with psychological content for us to analyze. We focus on using Bella Baxter's development to discuss Erik Erikson's theory of personality development using eight psychosocial stages and discuss how we see these stages unfold in the film. We also explore our feelings about the (surprising to us!) amount of nudity and the film's depiction of the role of female sexual pleasure.

Subscriber-only episodeIn this final episode in this mind-blowing four-part series tackling struggles between some parents and their disaffiliating LDS young adults, Valerie and guest therapist Liz Macdonald explore psychologist Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development—and use this theory of development to better understand what is going on between more traditionally believing LDS parents and their disaffiliating young adult children. This theory of development can shine a light on why some parents struggle so much in allowing their adolescent and young adults children the autonomy to grow into their own truths. This theory also can help us better understand the impact that parental underdevelopment might have on adolescents and young adults in completing successfully their own developmental life tasks. This series is intended to offer love and empathy for all: both the more traditionally believing LDS parents and their disaffiliated young adult children, shining a light on the extreme complexity of this situation and hoping to offer insights that will help families in our community heal.
