Podcasts about mental health awareness

Trauer, Angst, Wut oder sogar Hass – starke Emotionen gehören zum Menschsein dazu. Doch was passiert, wenn sie uns überwältigen? Wenn wir das Gefühl haben, die Kontrolle zu verlieren oder innerlich komplett überflutet zu werden? In dieser Folge von „Ist das noch normal?! Der kronehit Psychotalk“ sprechen Meli Tüchler und der psychotherapeutische Experte Daniel Martos über den Umgang mit schwierigen Emotionen und warum Emotionsregulation eine zentrale Fähigkeit für unsere psychische Gesundheit ist. Daniel erklärt, warum Emotionen nicht unser Feind sind, sondern wichtige Signale unseres Nervensystems. Gleichzeitig geht es darum, wie man Gefühle wahrnimmt, ohne von ihnen gesteuert zu werden – und warum Unterdrücken langfristig oft mehr Schaden anrichtet als Nutzen bringt. Die beiden sprechen über konkrete Strategien, wie man starke Emotionen regulieren kann: von Atemtechniken über kognitive Einordnung bis hin zu Skills aus der Verhaltenstherapie. Am Mittwoch, ab 22:00 Uhr auf kronehit. Ab Donnerstag ist die ganze Sendung, wie immer, auf allen gängigen Plattformen als Podcast verfügbar.

A lot of therapies address the context in which nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and self-harm may occur, but only a few treatments have been designed to address NSSI specifically. In this episode, we dive into one of these treatments: Emotion Regulation Group Therapy (ERGT). Drs. Kim Gratz and Matthew Tull from the University of Toledo in Ohio walk us through in significant detail each of the 90-minute 14 sessions of ERGT. You can purchase their book "Acceptance-based emotion regulation therapy: A clinician's guide to treating emotion dysregulation and self-destructive behaviors using an evidence-based therapy drawn from ACT and DBT" on Amazon here or at New Harbinger Publications here.  Connect with Dr. Gratz on LinkedIn here and Dr. Tull here.

Das Mail einer Hörerin hat diese Sendung ausgelöst: Sie beschreibt eine Situation, in der Eltern ihrem überforderten Kind gegenüber grob und unfair reagiert haben. Kein Einzelfall – sondern ein Moment, den viele Familien kennen, aber kaum jemand offen anspricht.In dieser Folge von „Ist das noch normal?! Der kronehit Psychotalk“ sprechen Jenny Kogler und unsere Psychotherapeutin Mag.a Romana Gilli, BA darüber, warum nicht nur Kinder Unterstützung brauchen, wenn es ihnen schlecht geht – sondern auch ihre Eltern.Romana erklärt aus ihrer Praxiserfahrung, warum ein Kind in Therapie oft nur dann wirklich Fortschritte machen kann, wenn auch das Umfeld mitgedacht wird. Eltern spielen eine zentrale Rolle in Veränderungsprozessen – und genau deshalb brauchen auch sie Begleitung, Entlastung und manchmal professionelle Hilfe.Gleichzeitig geht es um Scham und Schuldgefühle: Warum fällt es Eltern so schwer, sich einzugestehen, dass sie überfordert sind? Warum fühlt sich Hilfe holen oft wie ein persönliches Scheitern an? Und weshalb es gerade ein Zeichen von Verantwortung ist, Unterstützung anzunehmen.Am Mittwoch, ab 22:00 Uhr auf kronehit.

The slimmed-down crew is back in the building this week! We kick things off by catching up on life, AAU basketball media days, and the incredible experience of shooting our first official comedy specials right here at the club. Then, we get into the wild stuff—we call out Target for their questionable Black History Month merch and spark a hilarious debate on the different "vibes" at Houston grocery stores (H-E-B vs. Target vs. Whole Foods). We also dive deep into relationship dynamics, debating if 35 is truly a man's prime, whether you'd pass a lie detector test for your partner, and why the dating pool is shrinking. Plus, we salute J. Cole for his brilliant grassroots marketing run and close out the show with an important conversation on men's mental health.

Kurz nach dem Valentinstag sprechen Meli und Romana über ein Thema, das viele Paare beschäftigt – aber oft mit Unsicherheit oder Scham verbunden ist: Paartherapie.Ist sie der Anfang vom Ende? Oder vielmehr ein Zeichen dafür, dass noch genug Liebe und Verbundenheit da sind, um gemeinsam an der Beziehung zu arbeiten?Zu Gast in der Sendung ist das Wiener Therapeuten-Paar Dr. Sabine Bösel und Roland Bösel, das aus seiner Praxis erzählt, mit welchen Fragen und Ängsten Paare kommen – und warum Therapie nicht bedeutet, dass eine Beziehung gescheitert ist. Vielmehr kann sie ein Raum sein, in dem beide lernen, einander wieder zuzuhören, alte Muster zu verstehen und neue Wege zu finden.In dieser Folge geht es um die häufigsten Mythen rund um Paartherapie: Wird eine Seite bevorzugt? Muss man dort alles aus der Vergangenheit aufarbeiten? Und kann es passieren, dass man sich am Ende doch trennt?Eine ehrliche, entlastende Folge über Liebe, Konflikte und den Mut, Verantwortung für die eigene Beziehung zu übernehmen.Am Mittwoch, ab 22:00 Uhr auf kronehit.

For the first time on the WTTA podcast, we're joined by a researcher, and not just any researcher.Michael Sodini and Kevin Berry sit down with Kerri Raissian, Senior Research Scientist at the Yale School of Public Health's Firearm Injury Prevention Initiative. Kerri shares her path from growing up on a cattle farm in Texas, to working in a district attorney's office and running one of the largest domestic violence shelters in the country, to becoming a researcher focused on what actually reduces injury, trauma, and death.This conversation goes straight to the real tension points, without the usual talking past each other:The difference between reducing firearm deaths vs reducing overall deaths and why substitution mattersWhat gun owners worry about with ERPOs, and what it would take for policies to be trusted and usableWhy secure storage keeps showing up as a high-impact solution, including the reality of firearm theft from vehiclesHow research funding changed after 2020 and why more universities are building firearm research initiatives nowWhy storytelling and lived experience still matter even in data-driven policy workIt's candid, nuanced, and exactly what it looks like when the research community and firearm community sit at the same table and actually try to build answers together.Send a text Walk the Talk America would like to thank our partners who make these conversations possible and would like to highlight our top two partner tiers below!

Mehr Geld, mehr Erfolg, mehr Anerkennung – viele von uns leben in einem ständigen Streben nach dem Nächsten. Und trotzdem stellt sich Zufriedenheit oft nicht ein. Warum eigentlich?In dieser Folge von „Ist das noch normal?! Der kronehit Psychotalk“ sprechen Meli Tüchler und der psychotherapeutische Experte Daniel Martos darüber, warum Zufriedenheit nicht automatisch mit äußeren Erfolgen wächst – und weshalb manche Menschen grundsätzlich optimistischer, andere pessimistischer auf das Leben blicken.Daniel erklärt, was unsere innere Haltung mit Zufriedenheit zu tun hat, warum unser Gehirn sich so schnell an Erfolge gewöhnt und weshalb wir uns immer wieder im Vergleich mit anderen verlieren. Gleichzeitig geht es um die Frage, wie man aus dem Hamsterrad von „mehr, höher, weiter“ aussteigen kann – ohne auf Entwicklung oder Ziele zu verzichten.Am Mittwoch, ab 22:00 Uhr auf kronehit.

SummaryIn this episode, the guys welcome back Greg Rudiger (Resilient Another Day / The Radcast) for a real, needed conversation about mental health in the fire service—and why we must start talking to recruits and new members early, not just after 15–20 years of calls, stress, and life piling up. The crew covers how peer support, resiliency tools, spirituality, and the “power of the pause” can help firefighters stay in the fight—at work, at home, and into retirement.Greg returns (first appeared on Episode 75) for Episode 145.Matt sets the tone: firefighters are killing themselves—and we need to stop acting like it's not real.The crew agrees this topic should be in fire academies nationwide, not treated as an afterthought.Patreon updatePatreon is growing fast: 12 members (with a recent surge of new sign-ups).The team discusses possible perks like watching the podcast live during recording via Riverside.New subscribers shout-outsTyler Carson (free member)Tyler AdamsJesus & SophiaSocial FD (paid supporter)MerchNew flagship merch drop: shirts/hoodies/hats/long sleeves + specialty designs.Discount code mentioned: “Episode144” for 15% off (limited time).SponsorsUnkie's SeasoningsBurn Box / FD Collectors ClubPlus love for Blue Collar FiremenGreg breaks down the shift toward a proactive approach:If firefighter survival training is 75% prevention, why isn't mental health training the same?They're teaching recruits common language + tools before they ever hit the street:Stress continuum (blue/green/yellow/orange/red)Breath work / mindfulnessWork-life balance, sleep, nutrition, exercisePeer support resources and appsThe goal: normalize “Cap, I'm not okay” and make it safe to say.Brian brings up the tension:Some firefighters reject the mental health conversation as “victim mindset.”Greg responds: it's not about weakness—it's about leading with love, listening, and meeting the human.Also discussed: the “weaponization” concern—people claiming mental health issues to avoid accountability—without dismissing anyone who truly needs help.Greg's point hits hard:You don't carry one tool on the rig—you carry a toolbox.Same for wellness: breath work might work today, but tomorrow it might be running, faith, calling a buddy, stretching, ocean time, etc.The theme: sometimes you have to sit in the uncomfortable long enough to move through it.The crew emphasizes not being afraid of silence—on the mic and in real life.The pause helps you:respond instead of reactrecognize what you're feelingBrian shares scripture and the Footprints poem to underline the spiritual dimension:Faith isn't “religion as performance”—it's spiritual grounding and support.Greg ties it into wellness: the spiritual pillar is often the missing piece.Shared theme: we're not meant to carry it alone.Freddy raises a huge point:Retirement can be dangerous for mental health—loss of structure, identity shift, isolation.Greg explains what they're doing:retiree peer support groupsintentional check-ins (personal phone/email, not “department HR”)spouse inclusionmonthly breakfasts and continued connectionMatt addresses a correction from a listener regarding PAH exposure discussion from Episode 144:Clarifies the study measured urinary metabolites, not dermal skin measurements.Reinforces the key takeaway: SCBA use (even for engineers in the hot/warm zone) reduces exposure.Comment: How are you “par checking” your people?What tools are you using—peer support, faith, exercise, breath work, counseling, retirement groups?If you're struggling: reach out to someone (your crew, peer support, or the podcast team).Merch: https://the-cool-fireman.myshopify.com/collectionsGreg / RAD: resilientanotherday.comSocial: @stay.rad10 (IG/TikTok)Greg RudigerFounder: Resilient Another Day (RAD)Co-host: The RadcastOffers: resiliency training + help building peer support frameworks (“can't be a prophet in your own town” support)

The way he shared his story stuck with me, and I knew it was a conversation I wanted to bring to the podcast.Tim's journey has taken him from the army back into agriculture, stepping into the responsibility of taking over his family's property. Along the way, he's had to navigate transition from the army, identity, and the realities that come with life on the land.In this episode, we spend a lot of time unpacking regenerative agriculture, and we also have some really open conversations around mental health and the realities of life in agriculture. Tim also shares how his involvement with the Lachlan Hughes Foundation helped create real change for him personally, as well as on his family property.This is an honest conversation about land, purpose, community, and the role regenerative thinking can play not just in improving country — but in rebuilding people as well.In this episode, we chat about:Tim's journey from the army back into agricultureTransitioning from conventional systems to regenerative farmingThe importance of land connection, stewardship, and long-term thinkingMental health challenges faced by veterans and rural landholdersThe power of community, mentorship, and shared experienceTim's involvement with the Lachlan Hughes Foundation and lessons learnedPurpose, legacy, and leaving the land better than you found itResources MentionedCall of the Reed Warbler, eBook by Charles Massy | A New Agriculture - A New Earth | 9780702254741 | BooktopiaFarming & Grazing for Profit Programs | RCSTarwyn Park Training: The Home of Natural Sequence Farming | Tarwyn Park Training: The Home of Natural Sequence FarmingLachlan Hughes Foundation - Supporting Regenerative AgricultureIf you enjoyed the episode, please share it with your friends and leave a review—it really helps us keep these conversations going.Stay connected with A Place to Call Home:

In this episode of the Guns & Mental Health podcast, Michael Sodini and Kevin Berry sit down with Charles Anderson, CEO in the firearms media world behind Bleeker Street Publications, Athlon Outdoors, and its family of brands.What starts as a chance bar conversation at NASGW turns into a powerful, honest discussion about what it looks like to live with mental health struggles while building a high profile career. Charles shares his path from growing up poor in a wealthy New York town, to the high pressure brokerage world later portrayed in The Wolf of Wall Street, to venture capital, and eventually to becoming one of the most influential voices in firearms media.Along the way, he breaks down the reality of imposter syndrome, why “success” does not protect anyone from dark moments, and the coping framework that helped him survive when nothing else felt believable. Michael and Kevin connect the conversation to WTTA's “Cause a Pause” mindset, and explore why the firearms industry has often been hesitant to engage tough topics like suicide prevention, and why that is finally changing.If you've ever looked successful on paper but felt like you were one bad day away from unraveling, this one is for you.Resources:If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 in the U.S. for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.Chapters00:00 — Welcome and introductions01:10 — How Michael and Charles met at NASGW03:20 — The phrase that stopped Michael in his tracks04:10 — Charles' background, Detroit and “keeping it real”05:30 — Normalizing mental health talk in gun culture06:40 — Growing up poor in a wealthy town07:40 — From teenage stockbroker to Wolf of Wall Street reality09:20 — Pressure, substance abuse, and the crash10:20 — 9/11 grief, New York's collective trauma, and leaving for Michigan12:10 — First gun, training, and starting a blog13:40 — When the blog started outranking major gun companies14:50 — From agency life to running major publications16:20 — Why authenticity matters, especially in this industry18:10 — Imposter syndrome, image, and the pressure to “fit in”21:20 — Chat question, why so little 2A legal coverage in publications23:50 — Why “facts only” content struggles to get attention27:10 — Why the gun industry avoided mental health for so long31:40 — “You could kill yourself tomorrow”, what it really means35:10 — The link to addiction recovery and getting through the next minute38:30 — Why it works in conversation, but not as a slogan41:10 — Permission, options, and Dr. Conte's framework44:30 — How imposter syndrome shows up, even during success48:10 — What helps, therapy, self-awareness, and catching it earlier57:40 — External “pull backs”, friends, helping others, and connection01:01:30 — The “doom scroll” problem and a surprising coping tool01:08:40 — The gambler mindset vs stability, and why some people must build01:17:30 — How CharlesSend a text Walk the Talk America would like to thank our partners who make these conversations possible and would like to highlight our top two partner tiers below!

#205 - Some stories don't just move you—they recalibrate your sense of what's possible. Adriene Caldwell grew up in the crosshairs of untreated schizophrenia, constant relocation, and a home life that spun from denial to violence. After losing the grandmother who shielded her, she entered a foster system that should have offered stability and instead delivered degradation: separate dishes, floor seating, and rules designed to remind her she didn't belong. The stats she shares are brutal—one in five inmates are former foster youth, seven in ten foster girls have a child by 21, and fewer than three percent use free college benefits—but the real shock is how incentives often reward keeping kids “high need” rather than helping them heal.What changed her trajectory was a lifeline she claimed for herself: a coveted congressional exchange to Germany. There, a host family modeled warmth, boundaries, and trust. Adriene learned German the hard way—by speaking it every day—aced tough classes at a college-track school, and felt the shift that happens when someone insists you sit in the front seat for the view. Returning stateside just shy of 18, she found no plan waiting and wrote letters up the chain until one emerged. Along the way, a third-grade math teacher delivered hotel toiletries to a housing project, and a fierce English teacher stocked her classroom with computers and left one to Adriene before she died. Those acts—practical, personal, and precisely timed—became stepping stones to scholarships and a future she couldn't yet picture.We also explore why Adriene wrote Unbroken, Life Outside the Lines, and how revisiting old case files forced a reckoning with both the parts of survival that became manipulation and the parts that deserve pride. Her message to teens at the edge is simple and urgent: your life won't always look like this, and soon your choices will shape what comes next—numbing or healing, hiding or asking, repeating or rebuilding.If this conversation resonates, share it with someone who needs proof that change is possible.

When I say the phrase "Healthy Goals for the Non-Athlete," I know it resonates with a lot of people—because even those who once were athletes don't always feel like one anymore. My husband played professional sports, and yet today, like many of us, he notices the shifts: sleep patterns change, flexibility isn't what it used to be, balance takes more intention, and there's a quiet awareness that time matters. This episode isn't about peak performance, six-packs, or training like an Olympian. It's about setting healthy, realistic goals for everyday life—especially if you're in mid-career, at halftime, or beyond. At this stage, healthy goals begin with a healthy mindset, and consistency matters far more than intensity. Today, Greg and I focus on three areas that truly support a strong next chapter: mental health, physical health, and social health.

From the archives, first aired on May, 2024, I feel that this was one of our most impactful and important episodes.In this poignant and unexpected episode of Peace Love Moto, we take a detour from our planned celebration of the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride to reflect on a chance encounter that left a lasting mark.While enjoying a quiet afternoon ride to "The Forks" near the Wyoming border, our host crosses paths with a young woman named Laura. Walking alone toward a busy highway and talking to herself, Laura serves as a sudden, heartbreaking reminder of the fragility of the human mind and the invisibility of those suffering from mental illness.

Send us a textIn this reflective and honest episode of The Sober Butterfly Podcast, host Nadine Mulvina—sober since July 5th, 2021—shares her 2025 Sober Wrapped, inspired by Spotify Wrapped but rooted in real life.Rather than focusing on perfection or aesthetics, Nadine breaks down her year quarter by quarter, rating and reviewing her experiences across travel, dating, goals, and mental health. This episode is a candid look at how sobriety can hold you through both expansion and emotional contraction.Nadine reflects on pivotal moments throughout the year, including speaking at Podfest in Orlando, performing her first stand-up set sober, taking a solo healing trip to Barbados, and experiencing her favorite trip of the year in Iceland during the summer solstice with her mom. She also shares the behind-the-scenes reality of burnout, overworking, and navigating major life transitions.On the dating front, Nadine opens up about long-distance heartbreak, emotional lows, minimal dating, and the clarity that came from stepping back and practicing discernment. She explains why there wasn't enough dating content for a full Sober Dating Wrapped episode—and what she learned instead about intuition, peace, and self-trust.The episode also highlights career milestones and redirections, including Pilates teacher training, unexpected endings that became blessings, and lessons around time, boundaries, and alignment. Ultimately, Nadine reminds listeners that growth isn't always glamorous—and that a “good year” doesn't always feel good while you're living it.This episode is for anyone navigating sobriety, transitions, heartbreak, burnout, or a season of becoming—and learning to trust themselves through it all.✨ In This Episode, You'll Hear:Nadine's 2025 Sober Wrapped breakdown by quarterHow travel became a stabilizing force during emotional lowsLessons from solo travel, including Barbados and El SalvadorWhy this year didn't warrant a full Sober Dating Wrapped episodeThe emotional impact of detachment and discernment in datingCareer wins, burnout warning signs, and redirectionsWhy mental health and alignment matter more than momentumHow sobriety supports growth even when life feels messy

We open up about the holiday blues with a candid look at grief, anxiety, and the pressure to perform happiness when your heart isn't there. Together we unpack why this season can intensify hard feelings and how to care for yourself without apology or explanations.We start by naming what's real: sadness, irritability, loneliness, and fatigue can surge during the holidays, even for people who don't usually struggle with depression or anxiety. Then we explore the forces that turn up the volume—expectations, finances, social media comparison, and routines that fall apart just when you need them most. If you're grieving a loved one, we talk about why traditions can sting and how to create gentler rituals that honor your person while protecting your nervous system.You'll hear practical ways to set boundaries that stick, with simple phrases you can use to right-size plans, skip events, or leave early without guilt. We map grounding habits that make a difference fast: steady sleep windows, morning light, short walks, and tech boundaries that quiet the mind. We also share low-pressure approaches to connection so you can ask for support or opt out with care. The through line is compassion—toward yourself first—because joy is not a requirement for survival, and rest is a valid choice.If the holidays feel heavy instead of bright, you're not alone.

We dive deep with Drew Petersen about his film "Feel It All" and his life in the mountains; from ski mountaineering to 100-mile ultramarathons, and how weather, terrain, and mental health are all intertwined in his story. We also recount some of his wildest experiences, like getting over 5 inches of snow per hour while in Japan, and the mindset required to navigate that kind of unpredictability. "Feel It All" chronicles Drew's journey from suicidal depression to discovering strength and purpose; culminating in his decision to run the Leadville Trail 100 ultramarathon, while skiing and running through Colorado's high-peaks. The film seeks to break the stigma around mental illness and suicide, especially within mountain and outdoor communities.

Please share how this podcast is affecting your mental well-being. Please also know that we have a course called the "14 Days To Mental Health Wellness" Type this is your search bar. pensight.com/x/winoverdepressionWhen life feels like a storm you can't outrun, the answer isn't force—it's a better compass. We break the crisis into four pillars you can actually use when emotions surge: resilience to bounce back, courage to act while afraid, faith to steady your direction, and stamina to keep going longer than the weather. Through vivid imagery, a ship bracing for high waves and headwinds becomes a practical mindset you can return to when you're overwhelmed by depression, doubt, or daily stresses that stack up.We start with resilience as a skill, not a mood, and spell out small, workable moves that reset your nervous system and restore agency in minutes. Courage follows as a practice of boundaries and first steps—sending the message, making the call, or saying no—while fear rides in the passenger seat. Faith anchors the journey with a reminder that tests can harden you to difficulty, preparing you for wider influence and bigger responsibilities. Whether your faith is rooted in God, purpose, or community, the compass stays true through routine, reflection, and a short daily affirmation you can memorize.Stamina ties it all together with sustainable rhythms: sleep windows, hydration, movement, and a one-choice-at-a-time approach to progress. You'll hear a concise affirmation to repeat when the wind rises—“I am resilient, I am courageous, I have faith, I endure, and I will ride out this storm”—plus a reframing of setbacks as training for future strength. If you've felt stuck in quicksand or worn thin by long seasons of hardship, this conversation offers clarity, tools, and a hopeful perspective you can put to work today.If this helped you breathe easier and stand taller, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage today, and leave a quick review so more people can find these tools.
