Hello, my beautiful friends—this week, we go deep. Not just into the roots of fear, but into the bold, often quiet heartbeat of courage. Inspired by Memorial Day and those I call the Maesters of bravery—from Grandma Gatewood's canvas shoes on the Appalachian Trail to my own personal moments of standing in fear and choosing love—we explore how real courage doesn't mean the fear disappears. It means something else matters more. And yes, that something is often love. In this episode, I share practical, research-backed tools to help you access your own courage—no matter how loud the fear feels. From hiking updates to history's unsung heroes (hello Sherpa Tenzing!), from family memories to the neuroscience of bravery, I hope this one sparks something in you. If it does, please share it. We all need reminders of our light.Reference:1.    Rate, C. R., Clarke, J. A., Lindsay, D. R., & Sternberg, R. J. (2007). Implicit theories of courage.

Du spürst den Druck, dich anzupassen, obwohl du weißt, dass Maskieren – das Verbergen deiner autistischen Merkmale – dich Kraft kostet? In dieser Folge nimmst du die Maske ab und schaust unter die gesellschaftlichen Normen. Siri, Psychologin und Teil des Diversara-Teams, erklärt, warum viele Autist:innen ihr authentisches Selbst aus den Augen verlieren, wie internalisierte Stigmatisierung entsteht und weshalb Selbstakzeptanz ein Schlüssel zu mehr Wohlbefinden ist.✔️ Was Selbstakzeptanz wirklich bedeutet✔️ Wie Maskieren dein Selbstbild verzerrt✔️ Doppelte-Empathie-Problem & Imposter-Syndrom✔️ Selbstmitgefühl als konkrete Praxis (inkl. Mini-Übung)✔️ Warum Austausch mit anderen ND-Menschen so heilsam istDu erhältst praxisnahe Reflexionsfragen und erfährst, wie die Diversara-Community dich auf deinem Weg begleiten kann. Hör rein, leg die Maske ab und akzeptiere dich – genau so, wie du bist. www.diversara.de/communityStudie zu internalisierter Stigmatisierung (Livingston & Boyd, 2010)"Selbstmitgefühl zu haben bedeutet, dass du dich selbst so behandelst, wie du mit einem Freund oder einer Freundin umgehen würdest, die gerade eine schwere Zeit durchmachen - auch wenn sie etwas vermasselt haben, sich unzulänglich fühlen oder einfach vor einer schwierigen Herausforderung im Leben stehen. (...) Durch Selbstmitgefühl lernen wir, uns selbst ein innerer Verbündeter zu werden, statt ein innerer Feind." (Neff & Germer, 2019.)Seit 2012 hat dieses Phänomen einen Namen: Das Doppelte Empathie Problem.

In dieser Episode ist Prof. Dr. Christian Stierle, Verhaltenstherapeut und Professor für klinische Psychologie, zu Gast. In unserem Gespräch erklärt Christian u.a., was es mit der Compassion Focused Therapy auf sich hat, wie wichtig Mitgefühl - mit sich selbst und anderen - im Alltag ist und welche Bedeutung ihm in der Behandlung von psychischen Störungen zukommt, bei denen Scham und Schuldgefühle eine zentrale Rolle spielen. Es geht um Selbstkritik, den Umgang mit Emotionen und auch um die Frage, warum es (manchmal) so schwer ist, mit sich selbst und anderen mitfühlend umzugehen. Gegen Ende der Folge gibt es außerdem einige Ideen, wie sich dem Thema Compassion bzw. Mitgefühl nähern und erste Schritte im Alltag umsetzen kann. Buchempfehlungen (unbezahlte Werbung): Stierle, C.

Elections, ultimately, are about the citizens and voters. In a political and media context, we look at elections as being about the winners and their agendas. In an interesting article from the R Street Institute's Matt Germer, the spotlight is also focused on those who lose elections. Why do their words and behaviors in defeat matter? That's the focus of this discussion. Germer says admitting a defeat does not mean admitting policies or principles failed but it does mean participating in a crucial part of our republic: the peaceful transfer of power.

Why do so many people seem to resist self-compassion? Dr. Chris Germer, co-creator of the Mindful Self-Compassion program, joins Forrest to explore how we can work with the deeply ingrained shame that gets in the way. Dr. Germer shares common misunderstandings about self-compassion, and they discuss the complex interplay between shame, self-criticism, and our capacity for self-care. Forrest focuses on the paradox of self-compassion: how approaching it as a “solution to your problems” actually gets in the way of it helping you out. Dr. Germer then shares the model of safety, challenge, and overwhelm, including how we can use it to guide our practice, get to the bottom of shame, and avoid burnout along the way.

There is a spectrum of decisions between I can and I can't. Part of our healing journey is to understand the concept of acceptance.    A video popped up called "A Panic Attack Ended My Winter Backpacking Trip" from the Miranda Goes Outside!! YouTube channel.    I absolutely wanted to view that video. Spent a chunk of it nodding in agreement. Not to mention that I learned a little bit about not sleeping under a tree if there is snow.   I felt validated in that there is actual video proof of the experience in real life. Sometimes you can move past it. Sometimes you can't.   So I wanted to address that aspect of that experience with a few resources to help folks understand some of the concepts about acceptance and self-care.    I'm not going camping anytime soon. I need plumbing and an assurance of no bear contact.    I like bears.   I respect bears. Don't need to see one in the wild.     If you need support contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988 or 1-800-273-8255, the Trevor Project at 1-866-488-7386 or text “START” to 741-741. Resources Mentioned:  On the Positive Psychology website there is a explainer on What is Self-Acceptance? Please be aware that the site is designed for behavioral health folks, but it is easy for most people to read. There is a lot of text on the page, I'd read it a section at a time. Psychology Today 2018 blog post on how to practice acceptance    If you lean toward a stoic point of view, there is The Philosophy of Everything blog page on the philosophy of acceptance.   The Mindful Path to Self-Compassion, by Christopher Germer, PhD. The publisher is The Guilford Press and you can find the book at almost any off and on-line book vendor. The link is to the vendor's publisher's web site.   Dr. Germer has his own website where he has a page on meditations on self-compassion. You can download the mp3 file to your device or listen to it on the website.   Mindful.org page on self-compassion and writing a love letter to yourself.     Disclaimer:  Links to other sites are provided for information purposes only and do not constitute endorsements.  Always seek the advice of a qualified health provider with questions you may have regarding a medical or mental health disorder.

Chris Germer, Ph.D. was terrified of public speaking and thought he had an anxiety disorder. He soon discovered, though, that what he had was a shame disorder. Through developing a self-compassion practice, Chris was able to heal his fear of public speaking and the shame that was behind it. While Chris' personal story is remarkable, what is even more so is what he came to learn about healing shame. He shares that healing our negative core beliefs (like we do in the work of the Process) heals shame because they are one and the same. Healing our relationship with love and with ourselves and others leads to self-compassion. By developing this practice of self-compassion, we can know again our natural joy and playfulness. As a renowned clinical psychologist specializing in self-compassion, Chris' work with self-compassion is well-aligned with the work done at the Hoffman Process. Prior to this conversation with Drew, he studied the research that has been done on the efficacy of the Process and the amazing results the Process brings about. Chris shares with us a bit about why the Process is so effective at healing what gets in the way of our relationship with love.

This week, Scott Perry and I discuss a topic that seems to keep cropping up in the Bigfoot world: the controversy surrounding the Sasquatch Chronicles podcast. Wes Germer started his show with the premise that he and his brother, Woody, had experienced a terrifying Bigfoot encounter on Yacolt Mountain in Washington State, But as people started investigating his story, many inconsistencies came to light. Co-hosts left the show, and to this day, people still debate Germer's story. Was it all a fabrication? Or was Wes just confused? And ultimately, does it matter? Let us know what you think in the comments below. #bigfoot #sasquatchchronicles #paranormal #podcaster Links!

Libby Germer grew up in the Pacific Northwest and studied International Relations before marrying Kevin and moving to the East Coast for graduate school. She taught History to high schoolers for thirteen years in public schools and private schools before crying as she left the classroom to become the Principal of Church Hill Academy. A Fulbright Scholar to Greece, a curriculum writer in Yale's National Teacher Initiative, and second runner up for Richmond's Teacher of the Year, she believes that the most impressive thing she's ever done is to stay in high school forever. Libby loves nothing more than the sound of a school bell and the chance to start again with a teenager, every school day of the year. Which is especially good now that one of her sons is a teenager and the other has entered middle school. She has lots of opportunities for fresh starts and forgiveness at home!

In seine Amtszeit fielen Friedensarbeit und Jazzgottesdienste, aber auch der Anschlag auf dem Breitscheidplatz. 17 Jahre lang predigte der evangelische Pfarrer Martin Germer in der Berliner Gedächtniskirche - nun geht er in Rente. Moderation: Katrin Heisewww.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Im GesprächDirekter Link zur Audiodatei

In February of this year, I had the opportunity to interview, Dr. Chris Germer, a clinical psychologist and part-time lecturer on psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. As luck (or fate) would have it, I had the chance to interview him on the topic of shame…not once but TWICE. As you'll hear, the first time did not quite go as planned. However, the second time around (which you WILL hear in this episode) we talked about shame, what it is, what it does and what the antidote to it is. Chris' primary interest is his work related to self-compassion. Along with Dr. Kristin Neff (who I talked about in the What to Do When There's Nothing You Can Do episode a few weeks ago), he co-developed the Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) program and MSC has since been taught to over 200,000 people worldwide. Additionally, they co-authored two books on Mindful Self-Compassion, The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook and Teaching the Mindful Self-Compassion Program. In 2007, Chris began collaborating with Kristin Neff, psychology professor at the University of Texas, Austin, and pioneering researcher on self-compassion. In 2009, he wrote the book, The Mindful Path to Self-Compassion, and, in 2010, Chris and Kristin co-developed Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC), an empirically-supported, 8-week training program for the general public. The Center for Mindful Self-Compassion was established in 2012 and since then over 100,000 of people have learned MSC from over 3,000 teachers worldwide. A bestselling workbook on the MSC program appeared in 2018 and a professional textbook was released in 2019, both co-authored by Chris and Kristin. In 2015, Chris helped to establish the Center for Mindfulness and Compassion at the Cambridge Health Alliance. He is on the faculty and serves as a senior advisor and research consultant, currently co-developing an fMRI research protocol for treating chronic pain with self-compassion. Chris spends his professional life traveling internationally, teaching and writing about mindfulness and self-compassion, supporting MSC teachers and students, consulting on self-compassion research, and maintaining a modest psychotherapy practice.

After struggling for decades with public speaking anxiety, Dr. Germer found relief from anxiety and shame through the practice of self-compassion-- the warmhearted attitude of mindfulness when we suffer, fail, or feel inadequate. In this episode (Part 2 of our conversation) he shares about the impact of shame on the body and how the practice of self-compassion is a powerful antidote to shame. Dr. Germer is a clinical psychologist and expert on the topic of dealing with shame. He, along with Dr. Krisin Neff, co-developed Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC), an empirically-supported, 8-week training program for the general public. He and Dr. Neff co-authored two books on Mindful Self-Compassion, The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook and Teaching the Mindful Self-Compassion Program.

Description: I was joined by friend, colleague and mentor, Dr. Chris Germer to talk about themes and practices from my new book, Prizeworthy. In this episode of the podcast, we discuss what "prizing" is, how it's distinct from praise-as-usual" with children, and how to set about bringing the skills of prizing into each day's interactions with kids. I'm honored and very grateful that Dr. Germer, a pioneer at the juncture of mindfulness, self-compassion and psychotherapy, shared his thoughts and observations around how prizing can be a cornerstone of skillful parenting for parents, educators and all those charged with caring for and supporting children and teens.

Today's guest is licensed professional counselor, Taylor Heath. Her professional focus is counselling people that are experiencing struggles with mental health and addiction. In this episode, Taylor shares her expertise on attachment. Attachment begins at birth as we form connections through the child-caregiver relationship, but it continues across the lifespan and influences our adult relationships, decision making, and even our mental health. Taylor explains differences between secure and insecure forms of attachment and how they can play out in our professional and personal lives. We also explore the complicated interaction between disrupted attachment, substance use, and mental health. Taylor speaks about the pathways we have to repair attachment wounds as a means of promoting recovery and mental wellness.
