In this deeply honest conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with cartoonist and author, Becky Barnicoat, about her graphic memoir, Cry When the Baby Cries, inspired by a massively popular cartoon she created for The New Yorker. Together they explore the messy, beautiful, and often isolating experience of modern motherhood—from IVF struggles and miscarriage to postpartum transformations and the bittersweet joy of watching children grow and change.On Drawing Her Graphic Memoir"The drawings that I did sort of started to kind of suggest a kind of wild, maybe slightly unhinged mother home alone with her baby... maybe refusing to conform to social expectations, maybe not being able to conform, you know, because of tiredness, because of mental distress and isolation."IVF and Fertility Struggles"I struggled to confide in anyone for a long time. The only person that knew was my husband and I felt so alone... I think I started to become really quite depressed and the way that that manifested for me was that the world started to feel unsafe and quite hostile."The Shock of New Parenthood"It's just one of the most kind of beautiful but painful experiences available."Postpartum Bodies and Society's Expectations"Kids and like bodies that have given birth are not very welcome in society. And I think that's a real shame and it's to all of our detriment."Becky Barnicoat is a cartoonist and writer for The New Yorker, The Guardian, The New Statesman, Grazia, BuzzFeed and more. Before becoming a full-time cartoonist, she spent 10 years working as an editor and writer at The Guardian. She is the author of the graphic memoir Cry When the Baby Cries, a darkly funny account of her first years as a parent. She lives in the UK.Warning: episode mentions sexual assault and graphic images of childbirthThanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast!

In this intimate episode, I introduce you to my husband—the man who captured my heart and has lived a powerful testimony of transformation. Long before we met, he faced and overcame the dark grip of addiction.

In today's fast-paced world, we've become so consumed with chasing productivity that we've forgotten what it feels like to truly feel good.

"Mothering is a messy, interrupted experience." "It's not an 'or' situation…it's despairing AND it's light."In this introspective conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with psychotherapist Dr. Margo Lowy about her book Maternal Ambivalence: The Loving Moments and Bitter Truths of Motherhood. Dr. Lowy shares insights from her research and personal experience on maternal ambivalence, which she describes as "the mother's ability to hold together all her feelings and not disregard the difficult ones."Key Points:* Personal Journey* Dr. Lowy shares her experience with three children born across a span of 17 years.* She describes becoming less rigid and more able to "flow" with motherhood over time.* Her experience with secondary infertility highlights additional complexities in maternal emotions.* "What I want to normalize is for mums to let them know that they're not alone. We all have these feelings."* The Danger of Idealized Motherhood* Society expects mothers to be "fully selfless, fully caring, and really virtually on tap for our children."* This impossible standard undermines mothers' humanity and authenticity.* Children have an "antenna" for when parents are being genuine versus hiding feelings.* Motherhood as a Series of Losses* Each milestone brings both happiness and grief as children grow.* "Actually, mothering is a series of losses. It's an experience of expansion and contraction."* A mother's job is paradoxically "to be able to be left" by her child.* Creating Support Systems* Dr. Lowy advocates for creating spaces where mothers can share feelings without judgment.* The importance of surrounding yourself with people "that give you energy and that were kind of on my side and weren't judgy."* Social support is crucial during challenging periods like infertility.Dr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a Shrink.Thank you for listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast!

Matt Bair and Ryan Hedrick explore the challenging yet crucial process of rebuilding family relationships when a sibling is in recovery. They discuss how caregivers can assist children in understanding that, although their sibling's past may involve hurtful behaviors—such as lying, stealing, or causing pain during their addiction—recovery is centered on change. It's not about asking the kids to forget the past; rather, it's about helping them recognize the person their sibling has become today. They also touch on something real: trust takes time. It’s normal for kids to feel skeptical, angry, or distant from their sibling in recovery, and Matt and Ryan explain why caregivers need to give space for those feelings. Quick forgiveness doesn’t happen on Day One, and that’s okay. Finally, they share practical advice about reconnecting through small, positive moments. Whether it’s a game night, doing chores together, or just taking a ride, these little wins can help siblings bond without revisiting old wounds. If you're a caregiver navigating this journey, this episode has some great tips to help your family heal and move forward together.

Are you caught in a cycle of parental guilt, frustration, and overwhelm? In this important conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid interviews clinical psychologist Dr. Alissa Jerud about her groundbreaking book Emotion Savvy Parenting. If you've ever found yourself yelling when you promised you wouldn't, or felt exhausted from constantly entertaining your children, this episode offers genuine relief.

In Part 2 of The Business of Doing Business with Emily Williams, we continue the gripping story of her fall and her inspiring rise. After leaving a toxic relationship, Emily found herself homeless. Through the depths of addiction, she reached a turning point—choosing sobriety and a fresh start.

In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Dr. Jordan Grumet, hospice physician, writer, and podcast host, as he shares his journey. At age 7, Dr. Grumet lost his father, an oncologist, to a brain aneurysm, and he became determined to become a doctor himself. However, despite achieving his goal, Dr. Grumet experienced burnout when he realized that becoming a doctor couldn't "cosmically make up" for his father's death.Drawing from his experiences as a hospice physician, he offers profound insights on distinguishing between meaning and purpose, overcoming burnout, and creating a life that genuinely "lights you up."Key Points* Meaning vs. Purpose:* Meaning: How we cognitively understand our past; the stories we tell ourselves* Purpose: Actions in the present and future that "light us up"* Finding Your Purpose: Look for "purpose anchors" - activities and experiences that energize and fulfill you* The Art of Subtraction: Remove elements from your life that don't bring joy to discover what remains that does* Generational Growth: Breaking cycles of expectation to model authenticity for the next generation* Achieving Impact: Dr. Grumet found that pursuing what truly energized him (writing and podcasting) ultimately allowed him to help more people than his medical practiceNotable Quotes"Purpose is about the present and future, and it's about actions. All it is is about things that light you up. If you're trying to get more out of purpose than that, then you really don't have a purpose problem. You have a meaning problem.""Happy people tend to tell themselves heroic stories about their past. They see their traumas, they see their difficulties, and they see that they heroically got through them.""You can't purpose your way to enough. That's a meaning problem. That's a going back and dealing with your childhood problem.""All you have control over, the one measly thing we can control is what activities are we involved with as time passes.""I've really spent a lot of time thinking about what winning the game when it comes to life looks like... winning the game is as you get older, from the day you're born to the day you die, basically you want to be looking at your calendar... and you want to add in as many purposeful, joyful things that light you up into those time slots of your life.""When people see you doing things authentic to you, you are giving them permission."About Dr. Jordan GrumetDr. Jordan Grumet is a physician, writer, and host of the popular Earn and Invest podcast. He currently serves as the Associate Medical Director at Unity Hospice. His latest book, The Purpose Code, shares key life lessons learned from working with individuals in their final months of life.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast!

In this timely discussion, Dr. Jennifer Reid listens in as Dr. Megan Moreno, Co-Medical Director for the AAP's Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental Health, challenges the outdated "addiction" narrative and reveals a transformative framework that empowers both parents and adolescents. Drawing from 15+ years of research at the intersection of technology and teen health, Dr. Moreno offers a refreshingly nuanced roadmap for families navigating the complex digital landscape—where the goal isn't to simply limit screen time, but to foster healthy, balanced relationships with technology in a world where screens are unavoidable.Key Points* Moving Beyond the "Addiction" Framework* Youth have grown weary of the addiction framework for social media use* The term "addiction" makes teens feel powerless* Focus instead on empowering conversations where teens feel they have control* Understanding Problematic Use* Three key aspects of problematic technology use:* Content: Repeatedly seeking harmful or inaccurate content* Crowding Out: When technology displaces important activities (sleep, relationships, schoolwork)* Relationship with Technology: Feeling anxious or unable to disconnect* The "Digital Native" Challenge* Today's adolescents are "digital natives" interacting with screens from a young age* Parents need to model healthy online-offline balance* Self-imposed limits can be effective role modeling* Identity Development Online* Teens use social media as part of identity development* They often "try out" new identities, hobbies, or friendships online* Multiple platforms allow teens to curate different aspects of their identity* Vulnerability Factors* Some teens are more vulnerable to negative effects of social media* Pre-existing mental health conditions can make online experiences more challenging* Strong offline support systems help mitigate negative online experiences* The Five C's Framework for Healthy Media Use* Child: Understanding each child's unique needs and characteristics* Content: Focusing on the quality and type of media being consumed* Calm: Building diverse tools for emotional regulation beyond screens* Crowding Out: Ensuring media doesn't displace essential activities like sleep* Communication: Maintaining open dialogue about technology use* Parental Guidance Approach* Parents can be curious learners alongside their teens* Focus on transferable skills: treating others well, maintaining safety, setting boundaries* Ask questions from a place of curiosity rather than judgmentResources Mentioned* American Academy of Pediatrics Family Media Plan tool (or Google "AAP Family Media Plan")* Common Sense Media for app and game reviews* The five C's framework: Child, Content, Calm, Crowding Out, Communication* American Academy of Pediatrics Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental HealthGuest: Dr. Megan Moreno - Professor of Pediatrics and Affiliate Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison; Academic Chief for the Division of General Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine; Principal Investigator of the Social Media and Adolescent Health Research Team.

In this eye-opening episode of The Reflective Mind Podcast, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Gabriela Nguyen, a 23-year-old Harvard graduate student and founder of APPstinence, a Gen Z-led organization advocating for social media-free lifestyles. After being "chronically online" for over a decade, Gabriela now uses a flip phone and has developed the 5D Method to help others break free from social media dependency.For those feeling trapped by social media's endless demands, Gabriela offers both practical steps and philosophical clarity. Her journey shows that opting out isn't about missing out—it's about reclaiming your attention, deepening your relationships, and choosing peace in a world designed to keep you engaged at all costs.The path to digital freedom isn't about moderation—it's about recognizing that sometimes the best way to win is to stop playing the game entirely.Key Insights:The Social Media Trap:"For years, I kept losing the battle with social media until I realized that the war was never justified." Gabriela describes how social media creates a "faux sense of importance" while constantly demanding our attention.The Real Cost: Social media doesn't just take our time—it fundamentally changes how we experience life. As Gabriela notes, "You exchange quality for quantity" in relationships, and the pressure of constant digital performance feels "like a job."The 5D Method 1. Decrease: Reduce screen time by removing apps from your phone and increase engagement with the real world 2. Deactivate: Start with the platform you use least and work your way up 3. Delete: Let the 30-day deactivation period pass, allowing accounts to be permanently deleted 4. Downgrade: Consider switching to a simpler phone that doesn't invite constant use 5. Depart: Notice the distance between yourself and the digital world as you reconnect with realityFinding Peace: "The agency that I wanted to employ was not going to come from hacking my algorithm the right way... It was the agency to just choose that I'm not going to engage in this fight at all."Dr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a Shrink.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast!

In this illuminating episode, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Dr. Danah Henriksen, Associate Professor of Leadership and Innovation at Arizona State University and co-author of Explaining Creativity: The Science of Human Innovation, about the interconnections between creativity, mindfulness, and well-being. Dr. Henriksen shares valuable insights from her research and personal experience about nurturing creativity in both educational settings and daily life."Creativity is something that's fundamental and core to who we are as people. But we often do have to kind of fight with ourselves to make sure we're leaving some time for that."Understanding CreativityDr. Henriksen challenges the common misconception that creativity is limited to artistic pursuits or special talents. She emphasizes that creativity is accessible to everyone: "If you look across the breadth of most creativity studies, it's really something that we all have access to in different ways as human beings." Creativity in EducationDr. Henriksen discusses the tension between standardized testing requirements and fostering creativity in schools. She shares insights from her study of National Teacher of the Year award winners who successfully integrated creative approaches while achieving strong academic results.Nurturing Creativity in ChildrenFor parents looking to support creativity, Dr. Henriksen recommends:* Recognizing that children are naturally creative* Supporting their existing interests and creative passions* Praising the creative process rather than just the outcome* Providing diverse experiences and encouraging safe risk-taking* Fostering a growth mindset about mistakes and learningThe Mindfulness-Creativity ConnectionDr. Henriksen shares how mindfulness can enhance creativity, noting, "The ability to kind of suspend judgment... that ability of reframing or looking at things with fresh eyes is a really key part of creativity."Practical Takeaways* Make time for creative activities, even if they don't serve an obvious productive purpose* Practice mindful awareness to support creative thinking and overall well-being* View mistakes as learning opportunities rather than failures* Consider creativity as essential to human nature rather than just a luxury* Be mindful of where you direct your attention in our distraction-filled worldInterested in purchasing Explaining Creativity: The Science of Human Innovation?

Dr. Hollis, a distinguished faculty member at the Jung Center of Houston and author of over 20 books, shares deep insights about finding one's authentic path and understanding the messages our psyche sends us.The Journey from Academia to Depth PsychologyDr. Hollis shares his personal story of transformation, beginning with a midlife depression while working as a humanities professor. This crisis led him to retrain as a Jungian analyst in Zurich, Switzerland, ultimately discovering that his true calling lay in helping others explore their psychological depths.Understanding the Soul's JourneyDr. Hollis explains how we often lose touch with our authentic selves in childhood and must work to recover this connection in adulthood. He emphasizes that this recovery isn't self-indulgent but rather essential for both personal growth and our relationships with others.The Two Halves of LifeThe conversation explores how life's first half focuses on adaptation and fitting in, while the second half calls us to deeper questions of meaning and authenticity. Dr. Hollis discusses how this transition often emerges during midlife or significant life changes.On the Soul's Journey:"The soul is intuited in childhood, pushed aside by the adaptive choices of consciousness and recovered in adulthood only when we are willing to open to it."On Childhood's Impact:"Jung said the greatest burden a child must bear is the unlived life of the parent. And what he meant by that was wherever the parent is stuck, the child sooner or later is going to internalize that as a roadmap and either repeat that, which is very common, or spend a lifetime trying to get away from it."On Finding Your Path:"You're not here to live someone else's pattern. That's already taken. You're here to learn yours, find your path."On Self-Understanding:"It's not so much what we do or think or feel or believe or desire. It's what that is in service to inside of us that makes a difference."On Personal Growth:"Something inside of each of us knows what's right for us. How do you access that? How do you pay attention to that?"Dr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a Shrink.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind!

If you've ever felt alone in your complicated feelings about pregnancy, birth, or motherhood – this episode is for you.Key topics:* The profound isolation of early motherhood and why it's more common than you think"I realize now that my daughter is three how profoundly isolated I felt as I transitioned into motherhood" * How our modern approach to pregnancy and birth differs from historical "social childbirth" practices* Finding community in unexpected places, including online spaces like BabyCenter* The rarely discussed experience of pregnancy ambivalence and unintended pregnancy"The interesting thing about talking with other mothers in person is everyone seems so afraid of being judged, especially about the parenting choices they make when their children are young."* Navigating prenatal and postpartum depression while battling the stigma around these conditions* The importance of making space for all emotions during pregnancy – not just the "expected" onesFeatured insight: "The truth is half of the pregnancies in the United States are unintended...

Like so many things in wellness, it's easier said than done to live alcohol free. If you've tried before or are curious about sober living, this episode is for you! It's the practical side of how to unlock unexpected health benefits, stronger connections, and a clearer mind.Today on Salad With a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck continues to explore the thought-provoking idea of living "Dry Beyond January" with Gillian Tietz, MS, CAMS-I, host of the Sober Powered podcast and a sobriety and anger management coach. Jenn and Gill discuss the challenges and rewards of embracing an alcohol-free lifestyle, from tackling cravings and navigating social settings to finding deeper connections and breaking the cycle of shame that often comes from drinking. Whether you're taking a break from alcohol or considering sobriety for the long haul, you'll discover strategies to manage triggers, build healthier habits, and redefine your relationship with drinking. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [6:20] To drink, or not to drink[9:41] Reversing shame and judgment and shared experiences[12:56] Pros and cons of a Dry January[15:10] Navigating a sober weekend[18:55] Connecting with non-drinkers and dating while sober[28:41] Strategies for communicating going alcohol-free[30:57] Ordering Alcohol-free drinks with caution [35:14] Avoiding triggers and habits and creating new enjoyable memories without alcohol[38:53] The National Helpline is 800-662-HELP KEY TAKEAWAYS: Connecting with others in sober communities is critical for overcoming the shame spiral from drinking. Sharing experiences and hearing “I struggle with that, too" from your peers can help you realize you are not alone and break the isolation cycle.People often underestimate the unexpected challenges of quitting drinking, such as fatigue that persists for weeks and doubts about the payoff. These moments of struggle can lead to thoughts of giving up or attempting moderation. Patience and understanding the long-term benefits are essential to living dry beyond January.For those who choose not to drink, strategies include discreetly blending in, such as ordering non-alcoholic drinks that resemble alcoholic ones, setting clear boundaries early in dating or social scenarios and avoiding habits and triggers that increase your desire or cravings to drink.Successfully navigating cravings and triggers involves strategies beyond willpower, such as changing your environment, identifying emotional triggers, and reflecting on past behaviors to plan better responses.QUOTES: [6:42] “If you're wondering if you can, then you are somebody that can't moderate their drinking. I think it's just as simple as that. Like people that can moderate just do and live their lives.” - Gill Tietz[8:43]” Because when you think of an alcoholic, you think of a weak-willed loser who ruined their whole life because they like to drink too much, they're selfish, all of that kind of stuff. And many of us know that's not true, but that's the general public's perception. So, I was afraid of being labeled as an alcoholic and judged.” Gill Tietz[12:19] “The difference though, is that people could go the rest of their life without drinking. People can't go the rest of their life without eating.” Jenn Trepeck.[31:00] “I think more and more now, there are so many more non-alcoholic options on bar menus or in restaurant menus and certainly so many more in stores.” Jenn Trepeck[33:20] “I think it's such a valid point to recognize that we have that biochemical response, we have that craving, that reward pathway that still exists, even if we're not always feeding it. And that some of these other things can end up feeding that same pathway.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramThe Truth About AlcoholYou Are Not Alone: Relapse RateGUEST RESOURCES: Sober Powered - PodcastSober Powered - WebsiteSober Powered - InstagramGUEST BIOGRAPHY: Gillian Tietz, MS, CAMS-I, hosts the Sober Powered Podcast and is a sobriety and anger management coach.

This interview was SO INSPIRING! Dr. Khan's message was one of hope and engagement, through a powerful lens of equity and justice. Dr. Khan and I met as part of this lovely exploration of the book, The Artist's Way, by Julia Cameron, with a group for women in health care called Introspective Spaces. She had so many beautiful insights throughout our time together, and I loved the essays she wrote about her family from Pakistan and El Salvador, and her dedication to her role in health care.Dr. Amna Khan is an outpatient pediatrician at Santa Clara Valley Health and a clinical associate professor (affiliated) at Stanford University School of Medicine. Working within California's second-largest public safety net hospital, she serves a diverse urban population of nearly 2 million constituents, dedicating her career to addressing health inequities and their intergenerational impacts on vulnerable children and families.Dr. Khan's Key Initiatives* She co-leads Pedi POWER (Pediatricians Working and Organizing to End Racism)* She has created The People's Pediatrician website and health equity newsletter* She is continuously developing innovative interventions to challenge systemic racism in medicineDr. Khan on her cultural identity:"I wanted patient families to see me for who I really am at my core, not a half, but a double of the identities I feel so privileged to call my own."On her family background:"I grew up in a household that was rich in diversity of cultural practices, religions, languages, food... The example that they set was one of tremendous love and compassion, and also that humans are much more similar than they are different."On pediatrics:"Every child is a seed. And if you give a child the proper soil, and if you do that from the beginning consistently, the tremendous amount of potential that you can garner is something that none of us even believe."On representation in medicine:“Not only are you welcome, but you are desperately needed and we want your gifts. We want the challenges that you've experienced in coming from immigrant families... because that is the type of clinical workforce that we need."Her message to future healthcare providers:"Medicine is so lucky to have you... All those things that you thought maybe set you apart or gave you a disadvantage... is actually a tremendous advantage. And it allows you to connect with families."Resources Mentioned- The People's Pediatrician website- Pedi POWER initiatives- Introspective Spaces program for women in health care- The Artist's Way with Introspective Spaces (book by Julia Cameron)Dr. Khan completed her medical degree at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) in 2009 and her Pediatrics residency at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital, Stanford University in 2012. As a graduate of the UCSF post-baccalaureate program designed to support historically excluded minorities in medicine, she remains committed to mentoring and teaching future healthcare professionals specifically from those communities to increase diversity and representation in clinical workforce.Dr. Khan in Instagram: @thepeoplespediatrician and LinkedInDr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a Shrink.Thanks for listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast and reading A Mind of Her Own!

In this enlightening episode of The Reflective Mind Podcast, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Christy Gibson, MD a renowned trauma clinician offering a fresh perspective on understanding and treating trauma in the modern era. Dr. Gibson, the author of The Modern Trauma Toolkit: Nurture Your Post-traumatic Growth with Personalized Solutions, challenges traditional paradigms, emphasizing that trauma responses are fundamentally adaptive rather than pathological – representing the body and mind's intelligent attempts to ensure survival. We discuss how recent research has revolutionized our understanding of trauma, highlighting the critical role of the body's stress response systems. The conversation discusses the incredible potential of somatic-based treatments, which Dr. Gibson argues are essential given trauma's profound impact on the nervous system and bodily functioning. She outlines a three-step framework for trauma healing: * Establishing safety and stabilization, * Processing traumatic memories through cognitive and somatic approaches * Reconnecting with our authentic selves and those in our emotional orbit. The discussion offers valuable insights for both practitioners and individuals on their healing journey, seamlessly blending cutting-edge research with practical, applicable wisdom.Thanks for listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast and reading A Mind of Her Own!

In the latest episode of The Reflective Mind Podcast, Dr. Jennifer Reid spoke with Dr. Laura Suttin, physician, coach and author of The Purposeful MD: Creating the Life You Love without Guilt.Our conversation explored the complex landscape of physician wellness programs - yes, they can provide support and community building, but we discuss how these programs often fall short by focusing on individual resilience rather than addressing systemic issues. She shares particular insight into the challenges facing women in medicine, drawing from both her personal experience and coaching practice.Key takeaways:·Women in medicine are constantly trying to care for everyone: their patients, their families, other providers, often placing themselves last·Institutional change requires both organizational leadership listening to physicians, as well as grassroots physician advocacy·Women physicians can benefit from a shift away from unrealistic and damaging attempts to reach perfection in their many roles.Listeners can find Dr. Suttin at thepurposefulmd.com or @PurposefulMD on social media, where she continues to build community around physician wellbeing and career development.Thanks for checking out A Mind of Her Own and The Reflective Mind Podcast!
