In this episode, I explored the distinction between sharing personal stories and gossiping, inspired by Anne Lamott's quote about owning our stories. I discuss various factors that differentiate gossip from storytelling, such as intent, focus, and emotional content. To help navigate this line, I offered key questions we can ask ourselves about our motivations and the potential impact of sharing information. Ultimately, I emphasized the importance of focusing on our own experiences when sharing stories, while also being mindful of how we treat others. Notable quotes: "You own everything that happened to you, tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should have behaved better." - Anne Lamott "Owning our stories can be hard, but it's not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it." - Brené Brown

In this podcast, hosts Dr. Grant Cooper and Dr. Zinovy Meyler engage with Professor Jonathan Adler to explore the profound impact of narrative on human psychology, mental health, and identity. Adler sheds light on how memories act more like stories rather than factual records, and how altering these narratives can enhance mental well-being and foster resilience. The discussion further navigates the nuances of personal and societal narratives, illustrating how coherence within these stories may simplify complex realities and how notions of hope and redemption contribute to our understanding and growth post-adversity. By bridging psychological research with real-world examples, this podcast provides insightful perspectives on narrative therapy, the therapeutic effects of storytelling, and the dynamic interplay between personal growth and the stories we tell ourselves.(00:00) Introduction(01:50) Diving Deep with Jonathan Adler on Narrative Psychology(04:38) Exploring the Power of Narrative Identity(07:09) The Cultural and Intergenerational Impact of Narratives(10:04) Challenging Gender Norms through Storytelling(13:53) The Science Behind Narrative Identity and Well-being(16:39) Narrative Changes Preceding Mental Health Improvements(22:57) The Potential of Narratives in Therapy and Beyond(30:52) Exploring the Principles of Constructing Better Stories(41:15) The Role of Agency in Personal Narratives(43:46) Exploring Agency and Response to Life's Challenges(45:07) The Role of Narration in Personal and Mental Health(45:56) Co-Narration and the Influence of Others in Our Stories(48:31) The Power of Cultural and Personal Narratives in Shaping Identity(50:15) Navigating Personal Narratives and Mental Health Strategies(54:07) The Impact of External Narratives and Seeking Alternative Stories(54:37) Revising Personal Narratives for Better Present and Future(55:44) The Complexity of Memory, Truth, and Storytelling(01:03:36) The Evolution and Adaptation of Personal and Cultural Narratives(01:12:48) Concluding Thoughts on Narratives, Hope, and RedemptionProfessor Jonathan M.

When Dr. Rita Roberts recounts tales from her grandfather, it's like unearthing lost treasures from the annals of history. In this heartfelt exchange, she narrates her evolution from a captivated child to a revered historian, enriching our understanding of African American experiences during the Civil War era. Her book, "I Can't Wait to Call You My Wife," not only showcases deeply moving letters but also serves as a vessel, transporting us across time to grasp the profound connections of love and family that withstood the test of adversity. Her voice adds texture to our conversation, as she unravels how historical documents aren't just artifacts but lifelines to voices long silenced.Imagine the act of reading - so often taken for granted - as a radical weapon against the chains of slavery. Dr. Roberts guides us through the shadows of America's past, illuminating the defiance and determination of African Americans who wielded literacy as their shield. We delve into the complexities of 'hired out' slavery, the half-hearted dance around abolition in Northern states, and the intense emotional landscape of those who were traded as commodities. Their relentless quest for dignity and the sustenance of family bonds form the crux of a gripping narrative that challenges us to see beyond the surface of historical facts.Emancipation brought new horizons for African Americans, yet the journey was riddled with trials of identity and respect. The episode reaches its crescendo as Dr. Roberts brings to life Jordan Anderson's dignified refusal to dismiss the wrongs of his enslavement. The conversation ventures deeper, exploring how faith intertwined with the yearning for liberty and how the personal writings of abolitionists revealed their intertwined struggles for racial and gender equality. Rounding off with an examination of racial ideology's lasting scars, this episode is a testament to Dr. Roberts' dedication to preserving the rich tapestry of African American history through the intimate medium of letters—a legacy of individual lives that collectively shape our understanding of a painful yet pivotal chapter in America's story.Support the show

Jay Martin is an investor and the CEO of Cambridge House. He dissects the minds of thought-leaders from around the world with expertise in money management, geopolitics, macro-finance, commodities, technology, and any emerging trends his audience should be learning about. His goal is to challenge the way we think and the way we invest, knowing well that this can improve our lives for the better. In this episode, Larry sits down with Jay Martin, a multifaceted personality who dons the hats of a business magnate, investor, ultra athlete, fitness aficionado, devoted husband, and proud father to three boys. Genuinely intrigued, Larry marvels at Jay's vast repertoire, jestingly pondering on what Jay Martin possibly doesn't indulge in. Jay's candid revelation: he abstains from alcohol.  Sharing a mutual journey of alcohol abstinence, both Jay Martin and Larry echo the myriad benefits they've reaped. Jay accentuates that mere months into sobriety brought him unparalleled clarity and vitality; an enriched awareness that amplified his engagements and deepened his sense of purpose. Their discussion inevitably gravitates towards the pivotal role of fitness in molding one's psyche and temperance. Jay Martin, who's evolved into a formidable triathlete and ultra marathoner, professes how physical milestones bolster his self-worth. This newfound self-assuredness is palpably evident in his parental approach—marked by patience, empathy, and guidance, rather than domination. The testimonies of both Jay Martin and Larry Hagner underscore the symbiotic relationship between fitness and mental wellness. Consistent physical activity, coupled with mindful living, not only elevates one's self-esteem and vigour but also profoundly impacts our interactions, especially with those we hold dear. www.thedadedge.com/friday122 www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.jaymartin.club

ONCE UPON A GENE - EPISODE 198 Advocating with Heart - Striking the Balance Between Medical Insights and Personal Narratives - A Tribute to Valerie Marie with RING14 Co-Founder Yssa Dean DeWoody Yssa Dean DeWoody is an incredible advocate and mom, sharing her journey through the intricate world of rare disease advocacy. She unveils the concept of transitioning between the Valerie side, where medical realities are confronted, and the Marie side, where the personal essence of her daughter shines.  EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Can you share about your connection to the rare disease world? Our journey in the rare disease world started about 18 years ago with the birth of our third daughter, Valerie Marie. At three months old, she started having seizures and she was quickly diagnosed with RING14 Chromosome. We had the opportunity to attend an international family conference and it set us on a path to what it was like to be part of the rare disease community. I was inspired by the research and the idea that I could contribute to the community.  Can you tell us about Valerie Marie and why you're so intentional about differentiating between Valerie and Marie separately? My daughter's full name is Valerie Marie. My family refers to my daughter as Marie. Doctors always referred to her as Valerie. In time, it personified different aspects of my daughter where Marie was my daughter and her personality, her likes and dislikes. Valerie took on the more clinical presentation of her symptoms. If someone called my daughter Valerie, I knew they knew her in a medical sense and I had to create value around her by informing them who she was as a person.  What is your advice for families who want to share their stories effectively with a balance of objectivity and emotion? Whether it's at an IEP meeting at your child's school, a fundraising talk, or a speech at a large conference, it's best to start in the emotional realm with a hook that draws people in. Start with a personal story that invites the audience into your world in a personal way. Transition into a more scripted conversation guided by organized thoughts, clear ideas and a clear ask. It helps to have a clear outline in advance and know what you want out of it.  Can you share why you donated Valerie's brain to research and what the potential impact is on the rare disease community? At a research workshop, several experts emphasized the importance of brain donation in the event of a tragedy. There are so many critical questions with RING Chromosomes that might be answered from Valerie's brain donation. As a leader of the foundation with a heart for research, we chose to honor her life and continue her legacy in a way that could impact the community and inform research strategies.  LINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED Dante Labs https://us.dantelabs.com/ RING14 USA https://ring14usa.com/ TUNE INTO THE ONCE UPON A GENE PODCAST Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5Htr9lt5vXGG3ac6enxLQ7 Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/once-upon-a-gene/id1485249347 Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/once-upon-a-gene Overcast https://overcast.fm/itunes1485249347/once-upon-a-gene CONNECT WITH EFFIE PARKS Website https://effieparks.com/ Twitter https://twitter.com/OnceUponAGene Instagram https://www.instagram.com/onceuponagene.podcast/?hl=en Built Ford Tough Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1877643259173346/ Interested in advertising on Once Upon a Gene?
