Hi Fam- We're back with another episode with Anthony Gonzalez, a Licensed Social Worker and therapist with 20-plus years of working with clients and helping them deal with trauma, PTSD, complex relationship issues, and so much more. In this episode, we dive deep into the complexities of relationships affected by childhood trauma and our life experiences. Trauma isn't just an event in the past—it leaves a "trauma footprint" that can shape how we connect with others, often in ways we're not fully aware of. We explore the spectrum of trauma, discussing why certain behaviors make sense as coping mechanisms, even when they create challenges in relationships. From poor communication patterns to emotional reactivity, we uncover how unresolved trauma can interfere with intimacy and trust between partners. We discuss strategies for healing, emphasizing the importance of recognizing patterns, regulating emotions, and fostering open, validating communication. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for couples facing complex issues. We also explore the vital role of support systems in the healing process, offering insights into how friends and family can be more supportive. Join us as we discuss the journey of healing from trauma, the importance of healthy relationship dynamics, and how to reconcile in the present to build a stronger, more connected partnership. We would also love to hear from you! What topics would you like to see us discuss more? What do you feel are the biggest relationship challenges? Share them in the comments, and please remember to subscribe to future episodes of the Bedtalk podcast. Until next time, XoXo

In this episode Kat talks with Courtney about the ways travel, and in particular exposure to other cultures and communities, shapes our world view! From our guest: I am a Licensed Social Worker who has lived and worked in the Hudson Valley for most of my life. As an alumni of the Concentration in Human Services at SUNY New Paltz, I am overjoyed to be teaching in a program that has given me so much. Most of my professional experience in the United States before returning to SUNY New Paltz is in the field of domestic violence, community development, youth development, and professional supervision. I also have an international background and strongly emphasize the importance of an international and multicultural perspective. I'm a dual citizen of the US and Venezuela, and have also lived in El Salvador and Malawi. During the episode, Kat mentioned some programs and organizations that are incredibly important to her.

The truth is that we lose someone to suicide every 45 seconds. It impacts every community on the planet. Suicide isn't a bad word. We can and should talk about it because talking about it is how we quell stigma and silence the shame that has latched on to it for ages. Suicide has impacted and will impact so many. There are those we've lost to suicide, there are those who are thinking about suicide, there are those who attempt and survive, there are those who are grieving because of suicide, and there are those who are worried about someone they love considering it. We believe we all have a role to play in working to prevent these tragedies.    One piece of the puzzle that is suicide prevention is giving space for those who have been directly impacted by this epidemic, and that includes people who have lost those they love to suicide. Within the grief of losing someone, there are waves of guilt and waves of shame. Those continuing on in the aftermath are left with questions and often little to no answers. They might wonder why, they might ask what they could have done differently, and they might think it's wrong for them to smile or laugh or hope ever again.    There is a common thread between the two individuals joining us on today's episode. They have both lost sisters to suicide and they are both wanting and willing to exist in this awkward and vulnerable space for the sake of healing and hope and help. While they go about it in different ways, their goals are similar. Our two guests are none other than Billy Dwyer and Austin Andrew, and we are eager to introduce you to them.   Billy Dwyer (he/him) is a Licensed Social Worker who works as a Legislative Assistant for his personal Member of Congress in Washington, D.C. As a suicide loss survivor, he is passionate about sharing his sister's story and advocating for headache disorders. Billy is a proud TWLOHA intern alum and has helped represent the organization at events across the US. Beyond professional work, Billy enjoys being outside, drinking coffee, cooking, and lounging by the nearest body of water.   Austin Andrew (he/him) has studied outdoor adventure leadership and when he is not guiding, he can typically be found (or rather not found) outside riding his bike or climbing some mountain. Austin is the founder of a non-profit called We Shall Continue with Style, and is an ambassador for Kona Bikes and the Maxx G Foundation. Austin shares his story of living with grief after loss and works to support others through their own grief. At the present moment, he is cycling through the Americas on a bike.   Show Notes (Links of ours and guests):   Download a transcript of this episode at twloha.com/podcast.   Follow TWLOHA on social media at:   twitter.com/TWLOHA instagram.com/twloha/ facebook.com/towriteloveonherarms/   Visit our FIND HELP page of mental health resources at twloha.com/find-help/.   Get connected for free, 24/7 to a trained crisis counselor via Crisis Text Line by texting TWLOHA to 741741.   Connect with our team by emailing podcast@twloha.com.   Learn more about the podcast and previous episodes at twloha.com/podcast.

SEASON 03: WICKED GOOD ENTREPRENEURS | EPISODE 07 The Story of Boston Moms with Meghan Block and Shannon Gibson What better way to wrap out our Wicked Good Entrepreneur series than by hearing the backstory of Boston Moms from its owner, Meghan Block? On today's episode we are chatting, just the two of us, about the beginnings of Boston Moms, how the brand has grown, and what the future looks like. This is a fun conversation between two friends who came together because of the brand they are both so passionate about. Thanks for listening to The Story of Boston Moms! About Our Hosts  SHANNON GIBSON started following Boston Moms on social media before she even lived in the Boston area! She credits her passion for the brand to the way it served her personally before she ever contributed to it. Shannon started as a writer for our team, and currently serves as our Director of Creative Operations. She is also a Licensed Social Worker with a big heart for mental health and wellness. Though Shannon moved to Boston to support her husband's career, Boston Moms was the unexpected gift and opportunity she had no idea was waiting for her. Shannon is mom to Elizabeth (2016) and Anderson (2018). She has been married to her husband, Benjamin, since 2012. Benjamin is a filmmaker and owner of Boston production company Magnus Films. In her free time, Shannon enjoys going to the beach, browsing antique stores, hiking with her family, traveling, reading, and watching movies with her husband. MEGHAN BLOCK was born and raised in Plymouth, attended college in Boston, and followed her husband around the country while he served as a Submarine Officer in the United States Navy for a period of time. When they decided to put down roots in 2016, the couple knew they needed to move *home* to Boston. Six years later, it's still the best decision they've ever made. Meghan currently lives on the South Shore with her husband, Rob and their 3 children, born in 2013, 2015 and 2019. She works full-time from home, and spends her days balancing motherhood and her career. Meghan is truly passionate about connecting Boston-area moms to each other, to important and relevant resources, and to local businesses. In her free time, you can find her trying a new recipe, working on their fixer upper, planning a party, or supporting her favorite local businesses.

Psychedelics are having a mainstream moment. They continue to gain a bigger presence in our cultural awareness beyond their druggy stereotype over the last several decades. Psychedelics also continue to grow as an approach to treating certain mental health conditions leading many people to rethink the role of these drugs from solely being dangerous to possible catalysts of healing.Over the last several years, studies using psychedelics like Ketamine and MDMA have been released focusing on complex PTSD and depression in individuals who had what was dubbed “treatment resistant.”The early results and continued results show incredible promise and are beginning to stretch views on the use of psychedelics beyond just party drugs and into powerful and legitimate supports to healing.So, I started doing my own review of the research to find trusted resources to learn from who also understood the many layers–clinically, socially, economically, and legally–surrounding psychedelics as they gain a more mainstream lens and more people are using them to support their mental wellbeing. My inquiries led me to today's incredible and wholehearted Unburdened Leader guest. Victor Alfonso Cabral is a collaborative and strategic leader who is committed to making an impact on historical inequalities in his community and beyond. Victor serves as the Director of Policy and Regulatory Affairs for Fluence Training, a company that provides evidence-based training in psychedelic-assisted therapy and psychedelic harm reduction and integration services (PHRI) to clinicians across the world. Victor is also a Licensed Social Worker and practicing psychotherapist with training in Internal Family Systems, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and psychedelic harm reduction and integration. He is listed on Students for Sensible Drug Policy's list of 40 Under 40 Outstanding BIPOC Leaders in Drug Policy in the United States and received the 2022 Emerging Social Work Leader Award from the National Association of Social Workers of Pennsylvania.Please note: Much of what is discussed is still not legal in most states and studies. This is a conversation and not a blanket permission slip to use these powerful substances without specialized and caring support.

In this episode, David interviews Victor Alfonso Cabral, LSW: Director of Policy and Regulatory Affairs at Fluence Training and Licensed Social Worker and practicing psychotherapist in Pennsylvania. Cabral is currently involved with the film, “We are the Medicine,” which aims to explore the reemergence of plant medicines from the perspective of people of color from all backgrounds and walks of life, with the added factor of a strong hip hop influence. Filmmakers Eric Blackerby and Esteban Serrano want the film to normalize the concept of psychedelics and healing for people of color, but also the notion of men being truly authentic with each other and building each other up with love and support – something that challenges society's expectations on how men (and more specifically, Black and Brown men) should be in relationships with one another.

His story and all of the organizations and efforts he's been involved with prove that being authentic, following your heart, and building relationships with the right people can lead to growth and positive change in whatever path you choose in this space.  www.psychedelicstoday.com
