Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look through a different lens. On this week’s show "Disability and Desire – With Patrick Rory-John” Patrick Rory-John is a Psychotherapist and Clinical Counsellor. They talk to us about Disability; sexuality and the importance of the correct pronoun. Along the way we talk about sexuality and disability; consent and how a lack of understanding can lead to some very serious ramifications; and how people with a disability are often considered to be asexual, or infantilised.

Psychotherapist and dog professional Ann Howie built her professional life around doing animal-assisted therapy with her own dogs. Then for years, none of her dogs wanted to do that work. She had to adjust her entire vision around what was actually true. We explore the difference between listening to yourself and actually following through—two separate permissions. Ann shares her wisdom about shifting loads rather than just carrying them, about mental nutrition mattering as much as physical nutrition, and about the delicate balance she calls "the selfishness versus self-care conundrum." https://colleenpelar.com/156

Lyn welcomes Catherine Hickem, an author and psychotherapist, to explore the complex dynamics of the parent and adult child relationship.  Drawing from her extensive experience in psychotherapy and coaching, Catherine shares insights into the challenges faced by parents of adult children, particularly in the context of estrangement and communication breakdowns. KEY TAKEAWAYS The relationship between parents and adult children can be complex, often influenced by past experiences and communication styles Open and honest communication is crucial in maintaining healthy relationships. When disagreements arise, it's vital to address them rather than allowing them to fester Mistakes and failures are valuable learning opportunities. Encouraging children to embrace their mistakes promotes resilience and independence, allowing them to grow without fear of failure. Parents should focus on their own well-being and personal growth, recognising that their value is not solely dependent on their children's actions or opinions BEST MOMENTS "Over 50% of adult children do not share their lives with their parents... We now have a 27% estrangement rate in the United States."  "When we don't forgive, we're actually hostage to the very people we're not forgiving."  "It's important that we realise our value isn't dependent upon whether our children agree or disagree with us." "Your success as a parent isn't based upon how your children turn out." ABOUT THE GUEST - Catherine Hickem – Author & PsychotherapistCatherine speaks to unspoken expectations and boundary setting in family life, translating that into practical guidance for parents navigating the transition with adult children. She's an Author, Psychotherapist & Founder of Parenting Adult Children Today, and brings decades of clinical practice plus lived experience as a parent navigating the same terrain.

When you're in a high-conflict divorce, the behaviors often feel indistinguishable. Gaslighting. Manipulation. Control. Chaos. Emotional whiplash. It's why so many people fixate on one question: Is my spouse a narcissist? In this episode, I'm joined by licensed psychotherapist and narcissistic abuse expert Chelsey Brooke Cole to explore a deeper truth—when the impact on you feels the same, does the label actually matter? We unpack what narcissistic abuse truly is, how it overlaps with other forms of emotional and psychological abuse, and why abusers and narcissists often behave in nearly identical ways during divorce. Especially when they're losing control. Especially when the legal process becomes another tool for domination, punishment, and destabilization. This conversation is not about diagnosing your ex. It's about understanding patterns so you can stop internalizing blame, stop doubting your reality, and stop negotiating from fear. We talk about the internal experience of these dynamics—the fog, the shame, the fragmentation, the nervous system overload—and how those symptoms affect your ability to think clearly, make decisions, and advocate for yourself and your children. Most importantly, we focus on what actually helps. How to protect yourself emotionally and strategically during a high-conflict divorce. How to anticipate predictable escalations. How to step out of reactivity and into steadiness. And how to begin rebuilding your sense of identity, self-worth, and agency after prolonged psychological control. If you're divorcing someone who feels impossible, unpredictable, or emotionally dangerous, this episode offers clarity, validation, and a path forward rooted in reality—not labels. Chelsey Brooke Cole is a licensed psychotherapist, certified partner trauma therapist, bestselling author of If Only I'd Known!, and a nationally recognized expert in narcissistic abuse and complex trauma. She has been featured in USA Today, Psychology Today, HuffPost, WKRN News 2, and FOX 26 Houston, and supports thousands of survivors through her clinical work, education, and trauma-informed programs. This episode is for anyone navigating a high-conflict divorce who needs to understand what's happening, why it's so destabilizing, and how to move forward without losing themselves in the process.

As federal agents carry out the massive "Operation Metro Surge" in Minnesota, tensions continue between the Department of Homeland Security and local leaders over the scale and tactics of immigration enforcement. In New York, Governor Kathy Hochul is pushing the ‘Local Cops, Local Crimes' Act to rework how local law enforcement cooperates with federal immigration authorities, a move critics argue compromises public safety. Republican Representative for New York's 11th District, Nicole Malliotakis, joins the Rundown to discuss these enforcement shifts as well as the current legal battle over her own district. As political tensions continue to rise, some experts warn the constant outrage and fixation may be taking a real toll on Americans' mental health. With divisions deepening over immigration enforcement, protests, and heated rhetoric from both sides, the question becomes whether the country can step back from the brink of permanent political anxiety. Psychotherapist and author of the upcoming book Therapy Nation, Jonathan Alpert, joins the Rundown to explain why he says politics is occupying too much space in our lives—and how to begin letting it go.

Embedding Diversity and Equity in Practice - When Training Ends but Hours Remain In Episode 364 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we explore the question ‘Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists?', examining how AI is currently used in mental health care and what this might mean for the future of the profession. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Mamood Ahmad about his newly published book A New Introduction to Counselling and Psychotherapy, which calls for embedding diversity, equity, and context at the heart of practice. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken explore what happens when your counselling course ends but your placement hours are incomplete – offering guidance on how to stay motivated and complete the journey. Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists? [starts at 03:33 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore the question ‘Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists?', addressing a growing concern about whether artificial intelligence could one day replace human therapists. Key points discussed include: AI is already being used to support mental health in areas such as assessment, triage, and CBT-based coaching, but not as a replacement for human connection. The therapeutic relationship - empathy, intuition, and shared presence - remains central and cannot be replicated by machines. AI can be used ethically by counsellors to streamline tasks, improve assessments, and support practice without replacing core therapeutic roles. The rise of AI highlights the importance of counsellors developing digital literacy and understanding the ethical use of technology. Future therapists will benefit from embracing AI as a tool rather than fearing it as a threat. As job displacement due to AI increases in other sectors, therapists may become key support figures for those affected by these societal shifts. Embedding Diversity and Equity in Practice [starts at 33:12 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Mamood Ahmad about his latest book, A New Introduction to Counselling and Psychotherapy and the need for systemic change in training and practice to include equity, context, and diversity as core elements. Key points from this conversation include: Traditional counselling models often overlook the contextual, cultural, and systemic influences on mental health. Mamood proposes a new baseline model where diversity, embodiment, and lived experience are embedded - not treated as optional extras. This approach enriches practice for all, recognising that every client (and therapist) brings their own cultural, social, and personal history into the room. Therapists must reflect on their own normativity and differences to meet clients with authenticity and depth. The book acts as a manifesto for change, advocating for a curriculum that prepares therapists for real-world complexity and inclusivity. It is relevant to both trainees and qualified practitioners committed to ethical and effective practice. When Training Ends but Hours Remain [starts at 59:05 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss the common situation where a counselling course finishes, but a student still has placement hours outstanding. Key points include: It is common - and perfectly acceptable - for trainees to need extra time post-course to complete their client hours. Knowing the deadline and formal policy of your training provider is essential; always get this information in writing. Motivation can drop sharply after training ends, so it's important to build support networks through placements, peer groups, supervisors, or online forums. Visual motivators (like hour tokens in a jar) can help sustain momentum during this post-course phase. Stay engaged with CPD and peer connection to keep your confidence and learning alive. Remember: this is just one part of your journey, and with steady effort, the finish line is within reach.

Two families destroyed by violence. Two different kinds of institutional failure. On True Crime Today, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott — author of The Minds of Mass Killers — provides expert analysis of the psychology behind family annihilation and the systemic failures of America's addiction treatment industry.The Paul Caneiro trial in Monmouth County, New Jersey, has revealed staggering violence. Prosecutors allege Paul murdered his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their children Jesse and Sophia after Keith discovered Paul had stolen $78,000. Eight-year-old Sophia was stabbed 17 times, including a wound to her eye, and was allegedly still alive when the fire started. Shavaun explains what drives family annihilators to kill everyone rather than face accountability, what overkill violence reveals about psychological state, and how to read courtroom emotion.The Nick Reiner case exposed the failures of a $42 billion addiction treatment industry. The Reiner family had every resource available — access, money, the best facilities — and Rob and Michele Reiner are still dead. Shavaun examines why the 28-day model keeps failing, who profits from relapse, why insurance companies control treatment length over clinical judgment, and why fifty years of dismal outcomes haven't triggered meaningful reform.

Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us for an extended examination of two cases that expose how systems fail families in catastrophic ways.

The Paul Caneiro trial has exposed one of New Jersey's most disturbing alleged family annihilations. Prosecutors say Paul murdered his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their two children — 11-year-old Jesse and 8-year-old Sophia — at their Colts Neck mansion in November 2018, then set the house on fire. The alleged trigger? Keith had just discovered Paul stole $78,000 from a trust account. Hours later, his entire family was dead.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers to analyze the psychology driving family annihilation. Why does financial exposure sometimes trigger mass murder? What does the overkill violence — Sophia was stabbed 17 times including a wound to her eye and was allegedly still alive when the fire started — tell us about the perpetrator's psychological state? And how do family annihilators rationalize killing children they supposedly loved?We break down the prosecution's timeline, including surveillance footage of Paul disconnecting his cameras at 1:28 a.m., and examine testimony about his behavior after allegedly setting his own house on fire with his wife and daughters inside. Witnesses described Paul and his family sitting calmly in a Porsche outside the burning home. If someone had just survived what they believed was an attack, what would we expect to see emotionally? Shavaun explains what genuine trauma looks like versus performance — and what Paul's courtroom tears might actually mean.#PaulCaneiro #ColtsNeckMassacre #FamilyAnnihilation #KeithCaneiro #SophiaCaneiro #JesseCaneiro #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeAnalysis #KillerPsychology #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Paul Caneiro allegedly murdered his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their two children Jesse and Sophia at their Colts Neck, New Jersey home in November 2018 — then set fires at both properties to cover his tracks. The prosecution says it all started when Keith discovered Paul had been stealing from him. Within hours, Keith's entire family was dead. Eight-year-old Sophia was stabbed 17 times, including a wound to her left eye, and prosecutors allege she was still alive when the fire was set.Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott breaks down the psychology of family annihilation in real time. What drives someone to kill the people closest to them rather than face exposure? Why do these killers often include children in the violence? And what does the level of overkill reveal about their psychological state at the moment of the crime?We're examining the evidence presented at trial — the surveillance footage of Paul disconnecting his security cameras at 1:28 a.m., the doctored bank statements, and the witness testimony describing Paul sitting calmly in his Porsche outside his own burning home. Shavaun addresses Paul's courtroom behavior, including wiping his eyes during testimony about the children, and explains how experts distinguish genuine grief from performance.

Nick Reiner allegedly murdered his parents — director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. The tragedy has forced a national conversation about something America has avoided for decades: the addiction treatment system doesn't work. Relapse rates between 40-60% within a month. Over 90% for opioids in the first year. A $42 billion industry that keeps billing whether treatment succeeds or not. Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, we're asking the hard question — is the system broken, or is this just what addiction looks like?Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to break down the clinical reality behind the headlines. The 28-day treatment model wasn't designed by doctors — it was designed by insurance companies in the 1970s. The brain doesn't heal from addiction in 28 days. So why is that still the standard? Shavaun examines what evidence-based treatment actually requires, why most facilities can't provide it, and whether we're expecting too much from a population that often doesn't want to recover.We're digging into the co-occurring disorder crisis — the trauma, depression, and mental illness that almost always accompanies addiction but rarely gets treated. The underpaid, undertrained workforce doing the frontline work. And the uncomfortable truth about patients who learn to game the system. Join us live as we examine whether the treatment industry is failing its patients or facing an impossible task.#NickReiner #RobReiner #AddictionTreatment #RehabFailure #ShavaunScott #MentalHealthCrisis #TreatmentIndustry #SubstanceAbuse #OpioidCrisis #HiddenKillersLiveJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode, we explore what it means to stay human in a time of collective trauma. We talk about messiness as a core part of being alive, how purity culture and rigid systems disconnect us from our bodies, and why agency, consent, and clear yeses and nos are essential forms of resistance. Together, we unpack how supremacy shapes therapy, relationships, and identity — especially through individualism, whiteness, and disembodiment — and imagine more liberating ways of practicing care, connection, and community. The conversation weaves personal reflection, cultural critique, and somatic wisdom, inviting listeners back into their bodies, their grief, and their shared humanity.Subverting Supremacy Culture in our Practice: Part 2Friday, January 30, 20262:00 PM  4:00 PMVIRTUALhttps://www.shelterwoodcollective.com/events/subverting-supremacy-culture-in-our-practice-part-2Working with people means navigating power, race, and trauma.This workshop will help you notice supremacy culture in the room and resist it. Due to the way Christian nationalism works in the US we create space to engage Christian supremacy and its manifestations of racialized heteronormativity that affects all bodies — regardless of religious or non-religious status. You will learn embodied, relational tools to strengthen your practice and reduce harm. Danielle S. Rueb Castillejo (she/her), Psychotherapist, Activist, Community Organizer; Jenny McGrath (she/her), Psychotherapist Writer, Author, Body Movement Worker; Abby Wong-Heffter, (she/her), Psychotherapist Teacher, Attachment Specialist; Tamice Spencer-Helms, (she/they), Author, Theoactivist, Non-Profit Leader are collaborating to create a generative learning space for therapists, social workers, educators, organizers, spiritual leaders, healthcare providers, and community practitioners. Together we will work with the ways supremacy culture shows up somatically, relationally, and structurally in helping professions. We will examine how dissociation, fragmentation, and inherited oppression narratives shape our work, and develop practices to interrupt these patterns.This workshop addresses diversity and cultural competence by:Examining how supremacy culture impacts Black, Indigenous, and People of Color differently than white-bodied practitioners. Naming cultural, historical, and intergenerational forces that shape power dynamics in clinical and community settings. Offering embodied, relational, and trauma-informed tools to practitioners working across racial, ethnic, cultural, and linguistic differences. Developing the capacity to recognize and intervene in oppression harm while maintaining therapeutic integrity and accountability. Participants will engage in reflective dialogue, somatic exercises, case-based examples, and guided exploration of their own positionality. The intent is not perfection but deepening collective responsibility and expanding our capacity to resist supremacy culture inside our practice and in ourselves. The workshop is designed to meet the Washington Department of Health requirement for two hours of health equity continuing education (WAC 246-12-820).The Blackfoot Wisdom that Inspired Maslow's HierarchyBy Teju Ravilochan, originally published by Esperanza Projecthttps://www.resilience.org/stories/2021-06-18/the-blackfoot-wisdom-that-inspired-maslows-hierarchy/ Danielle (00:05):Be with you. Yeah. Well, it seems like from week to week, something drastically changes or some new trauma happens. It reminds me a lot of 2020.Jenny  (00:15):Yeah. Yeah, it really does. I do feel like the positive in that is that similar to 2020, it seems like people are really looking for points of connection with one another, and I feel like there was this lull on Zoom calls or trainings or things like that for a while. People were just burned out and now people are like, okay, where in the world can I connect with people that are similar to me? And sometimes that means neighbors, but sadly, I think a lot of times that means people in other states, a lot of people that can feel kind of siloed in where they are and how they're doing right now.Danielle (00:56):Yeah, I was just thinking about how even I have become resistant to zoom or kind of tired and fed up and then all of a sudden meeting online or texting or whatever feels safer. Okay. Again.About? Just all the shit and then you go out in the real world and do I messed that up? I messed that up. I messed that up. I think that's part of it though, not living in perfection, being willing to be really messy. And how does that play out? How does that play out in our therapeutic practices?Jenny (01:50):Yeah, totally. I've been thinking a lot about messiness lately and how we actually come into the world. I think reveling often in messiness for anyone that's tried to feed a young child or a toddler and they just have spaghetti in their hair and everything's everywhere. And then we work so hard to tell kids, don't be messy. Don't be messy. And I'm like, how much of this is this infusion of purity culture and this idea that things should be clean and tidy? That's really actually antithetical to the human experience, which is really messy and nuanced and complicated. But we've tried to force these really binary, rigid, clean systems or ways of relating so that when things inevitably become messy, it feels like relationships just snap, rather than having the fluidity to move through and navigate,Danielle (02:57):It becomes points of stop or I can't be in contact with you. And of course, there's situations where that is appropriate and there might be ways I can connect with this person in this way, but maybe not on social media for instance. That's a way that there's a number of people I don't connect with on social media intentionally, but am willing to connect with them offline. So yeah, so I think there's a number of ways to think about that. I think just in subverting supremacy, Abby and I talked a lot about consent and how also bringing your own agency and acknowledging your yeses and your nos and being forthcoming. Yeah, those are some of the things, but what are you and Tamis going to touch on?Jenny (03:47):I'd be curious to hear what you think inhibits somebody's agency and why? Because I thought that was so great. How much you talked about consent and if you were to talk about why you think that that is absent or missing or not as robust as it could be, what are your thoughts on that?Danielle (04:06):Well, sometimes I think we look in our society to people in power to kind of play out fantasies. So we look for them to keep checking in with us and it, it goes along with maybe just the way the country was formed. I talked a little bit about that this week. It was formed for white men in power, so there was obviously going to be hierarchical caste system down from there. And in each cast you're checking with the powerful person up. So I think we forget that that plays out in our day-to-day relationships too.(04:44):And I think it's a hard thing to acknowledge like, oh, I might have power as a professional in this realm, but I might enter this other realm where then I don't have power and I'm deferring to someone else. And in some ways those differences and those hierarchies serve what we're doing and they're good. And in other ways I think it inhibits us actually bringing our own agency. It's like a social conditioning against it, along with there's trauma and there's a lot of childhood sexual abuse in our country a lot. And it's odd that it gets pinned on immigrants when where's the pedophiles? We know where some of them are, but they're not being pursued. So I think all of these dynamics are at play. What do you think about thatJenny (05:32):When you talk? It makes me think about something I've just learned in the last couple years, which is like Maslow's hierarchy of needs, which has been turned into this pyramid that says you need all of these things before you can be self-actualizing. What is actually interesting is that Mazo sort of misappropriated that way of thinking from the Blackfoot nation that he had been living and researching, and the Blackfoot people were saying and have been saying and do say that they believe we come into the world as self-actualized. And so the culture and the community is designed to help that sovereign being come into their full selves.(06:20):And so actually the way that the pyramid was created was sort of the antithesis of what the Blackfoot people were trying to communicate and how they were living. But unfortunately, white psychology said, well, we can't acknowledge that this was from indigenous people, so we're going to whitewash it. We're going to say that Maslow created it and it's going to be wrong, basically. And I'm just thinking about the shift of if we view people and water and plants and animals and planets as sovereign, as beings that have self-actualizing agency, then of course we're going to probably want to practice consent and honoring them. Whereas if we view the world and people as these extractive things and objects, we're going to feel entitled to take what we want or what we feel like we deserve.Danielle (07:32):I'm not surprised though that we've extracted that hierarchy of needs from somewhere because as I write about, I've been writing a lot as I think about moral injury and what's happened to our society and how trauma's become a weapon, like a tool of empire in white bodies to use them as machinery, as weapons. One of the things I've thought a lot about is just this idea that we're not bodies, we're just part of the machine.(08:03):So then it would make sense to make a form, here's your needs, get this shit done so you can keep moving.Jenny (08:12):Totally. We just started watching Pluribus last night. Do you know what this is?(08:24):Is this really interesting show where there's this virus that comes from outer space and it makes everyone in the world basically a hive mind. And so there's immediately no wars, no genocide, nothing bad is going on,(08:43):Nobody is thinking for themselves except for this one woman who for whatever reason was not infected with the virus.(08:52):And it's so interesting and it's kind of playing with this idea of she is this white woman from America that's like, well, we should be able to think for ourselves. And everyone else is like, but wars are gone. And it's really interesting. I don't know where the show's going to actually go, but it's playing with this idea of this capitalistic individuation. I'm my own self, so I should be able to do that. And I know this, it's this place of tension with I am a sovereign being and I am deeply interconnected to all other beings. And so what does agency look like with being responsible to the people I'm in relationship with, whether I know them or not,Danielle (09:42):What is agency? I think we honor other people by keeping short accounts. I don't think I've done a good job of that much in my life. I think it's more recent that I've done that. I think we honor other people by letting them know when we're actually find something joyful about what our encounter with them or pointing out something loving. And I think we honor our community when we make a clear yes or clear no or say I can't say yes or no. Why can I tell you yes or no at a later date when we speak for ourselves, I think we give into our community, we build a pattern of agency. And I think as therapists, I think sometimes we build the system where instead of promoting agency, we've taken it away.Jenny (10:35):Yeah, I agree. I agree. I think I was just having a conversation with a supervisee about this recently. I who has heard a lot of people say, you shouldn't give your clients psychoeducation. You shouldn't give them these moments of information. And I was like, well, how gatekeeping is that? And they were having a hard time with, I've heard this, but this doesn't actually feel right. And I do think a lot of times this therapist, it's like this idea that I'm the professional, and so I'm going to keep all of this information siloed from you where I think it's ethical responsibility if we have information that would help things make more sense for our clients to educate them. And I often tell my clients in our first session, my job is to work myself out of a job. And unfortunately, I think that there's a lot in a lot of people in the therapy world who think it's their job to be someone's therapist forever. And I think I'm like, how do we start with, again, believing in someone's agency and ability to self-actualize and we just get to sort of steward that process and then let them go do whatever they're going to do.Danielle (11:54):I think that also speaks to can therapy change? I think the model I learned in graduate school has revolved a lot around childhood trauma, which is good. So glad I've been able to grow and learn some of those skills that might help me engage someone. I also think there's aspects I think of our society that are just missing in general, that feel necessary in a therapeutic relationship like coaching or talking from your own personal experience, being clear about it, but also saying like, Hey, in these years this has happened. I'm not prescribing this for you, but this is another experience. I think on one hand in grad school, you're invited to tell your story and know your story and deal with counter transference and transference and try to disseminate that in some sort of a blank way. That's not possible. We're coming in with our entire identity front and center. Yeah, those are just thoughts I have.Jenny (12:59):Yeah, I think that's so good. And it makes me think about what whiteness does to people, and I think a lot of times it puts on this cloak or this veneer of not our fullest truest selves. And I don't even think that white people are often conscious that that's what we're doing. I remember I am in this group where we're practicing what does it look like to be in our bodies in cross-racial experiences? And there's a black woman in my cohort that said, do you ever feel separate from your whiteness? Can you ever get a little bit of space from your whiteness? And I was like, honestly, I don't feel like I can. I feel like I'm like Jim Carrey in the mask, where the more I try to pull it off, the more it snaps back and it's like this crustacean that has encapsulated us. And so how do we break through with our humanity, with our messiness to these constraints that whiteness has put on us?(14:20):Oh, tomorrow. Oh my gosh. So I'm going to do a little bit of a timeline of Jenny's timeline, my emotional support timeline. I told Tamis, I was like, I can get rid of this if you don't think it's important, but I will tell you these are my emotional support timelines. And they were like, no, you can talk about 'em. So I'm just doing two slides on the timeline. I have dozens of slides as Danielle, but I'm just going to do two really looking at post civil rights movement through the early two thousands and what purity culture and Christian nationalism did to continue. What I'm talking about is the trope of white womanhood and how disembodied that is from this visceral self and organism that is our body. And to me is going to talk about essentially how hatred and fear and disgust of the black queer body is this projection of those feelings of fear, of shame, of guilt, of all of those things that are ugly or disavowed within the system of Christian nationalism, that it gets projected and put on to black bodies. And so how do we then engage the impact of our bodies from these systems in our different gendered and sexual and racial locations and socioeconomic locations and a million other intersectional ways? As you and Abby talked about the power flower and how many different parts of our identity are touched by systems of oppression and power(16:11):And how when we learn to move beyond binary and really make space for our own anger, our own fear, our own disgust, our own fill in the blank, then we are less likely to enable systems that project that on to other bodies. That's what we're going to be talking about, and I'm so excited.Danielle (16:32):Just that, just that NBD, how do you think about being in your body then on a screen? There's been a lot of debate about it after the pandemic. How do you think about that? Talking about something that's so intimate on a screen? How are you thinking about it?Jenny (16:52):Totally. I mean, we are on a screen, but we're never not in our bodies. And so I do think that there is something that is different about being in a room with other bodies. And I'm not going to pretend I know anything about energy or the relational field, but I know that I have had somatic work done on the screen where literally my practitioner will be like, okay, I'm touching your kidney right now and I will feel a hand on my kidney. And it's so wild. That probably sounds so bizarre, and I get it. It sounds bizarre to me too, but I've experienced that time and space really are relative, I think. And so there is something that we can still do in our shared relational space even if we're not in the same physical space.(17:48):I do think that for some bodies, that actually creates a little bit more safety where I can be with you, but I'm not with you. And so I know I can slam my computer shut, I can walk out of the room, I can do whatever I need to do, whether I actually do that or not. I think there sometimes can be a little bit of mobility that being on the screen gives us that our bodies might not feel if we are in a shared physical space together. And so I think there's value and there's difference to both. What about you?Danielle (18:25):Well, I used it a lot because I started working during the pandemic. So it was a lifeline to get clients and to work with clients. I have to remind myself to slow down a lot when I'm on the screen. I think it's easier to be more talkative or say more, et cetera, et cetera. So I think pacing, sometimes I take breaks to breathe. I used to have self-hate for that or self-criticism or the super ego SmackDown get body slammed. But no, I mean, I try to be down to earth who I would prefer to be and not to be different on screen. I don't know that that's a strategy, but it's the way I'm thinking about it.Jenny (19:20):As someone who has co-lead therapy spaces with you in person, I can say, I really appreciate your, and these things that feel unrushed and you just in the moment for me, a lot of times I'm like, oh yeah, we're just here. We don't have to rush to what's next. I think that's been such a really powerful thing I've gleaned from co-facilitating and holding space with you.Danielle (19:51):Oh, that's a sweet thing to say. So when you think about subverting supremacy in our practices, us as therapists or just in the world we are in, what's an area that you find yourself stuck in often if you're willing to share?Jenny (20:12):I think for me and a lot of the clients that I work with, it is that place of individualism. And this is, I think again, the therapy model is you come in, you talk about your story, talk about your family of origin, talk about your current relationships, and it becomes so insular. And there is of course things that we can talk about in our relationships, in our family, in our story. And it's not like those things happen in a, and I think it does a disservice, and especially for white female clients, I think it enables a real sense of agency when it's like, I'm going through the hardest thing that anyone's ever gone through. And it's like, open your eyes. Look at what the world is going through you, and we and us are so much more capable than white womanhood would want you to assume that you are. And so I think that a lot of times for white women, for a lot of my work is growing their capacity to feel their agency because I think that white patriarchal Christian capitalistic supremacy only progresses so long as white women perform being these damsels that need rescue and need help. And if we really truly owned our self-actualizing power, it would really topple the system, I believe.Danielle (21:53):Yeah, I mean, you see the shaking of the system with Renee, Nicole Goode. People don't know what to do with her. Of course, some people want to make her all bad, or the contortions they do to try to manipulate that video to say what they wanted to say. But the rattling for people that I've heard everywhere around her death and her murder, I think she was murdered in defense of her neighbors. And that's both terror inducing. And it's also like, wow, she believed in that she died for something she actually believed in.Jenny (22:54):Yeah. And I were talking about this as well in that of course we don't know, but I don't know that things would've played out the same way they played out if she wasn't clearly with a female partner. And I do think that heteronormativity had a part to play in that she was already subverting what she should be doing as a white woman by being with another woman. And I think that that is a really important conversation as well as where is queerness playing into these systems of oppression and these binary heteronormative systems. And this is my own theory with Renee, Nicole. Good. And with Alex, there is something about their final words where Nicole says, I'm not mad at you. And Alex says, are you okay? And my theory is that that is actually the moment where something snapped for these ice agents because they had their own projection on what these race traders were, and they probably dehumanized them. And so in this moment of their humanity intersecting with the projection that these agents had, I think that induced violence, not that they caused it or it was their(24:33):But I think that when our dehumanizing projections of people are interrupted with their humanity, we have a choice where we go, wait, you are not what I thought you were. Or we double down on the dehumanization. And I think that these were two examples of that collision of humanity and projection, and then the doubling down of violence and dehumanization(25:07):Yeah. It makes me think of, have you seen the sound of music?(25:13):So the young girl, she has this boyfriend that turns into a Nazi. There's this interaction towards the end of the film where he sees the family. He has this moment facing the dad, and he hasn't yet called in the other Nazis. And the dad says to him, you'll never be one of them.(25:36):And that was the moment that he snapped. And he called in the other guards. And I think it's making a point that there's something in these moments of humanity, calling to humanity is a really pivotal moment of are you going to let yourself be a human or are you going to double down in your allegiance to the systems of oppression? And so I think that what we're trying to invite with subverting supremacy is when we come to those moments, how do we choose humanity? How do we choose empathy? How do we choose kindness? And wait, I had this all wrong rather than a doubling down of violence. I don't know. Those are my thoughts. What do you think? Well,Danielle (26:27):I hadn't thought about that, but I do know that moment in sound of music, and that feels true to me, or it feels like, where do you belong? A question of where do you belong? And in the case of Alex and Nicole, I mean, in some sense the agents already knew they didn't belong with them, but to change this. But on the other hand, it feels like, yeah, maybe it is true. It just set off those alarm bells or just said like, oh, they're not one of us. Something like that.(27:19):It's a pretty intense thought. Yeah. My friend that's a pastor there in Minneapolis put out a video with Jen Hatmaker yesterday, and I watched the Instagram live of it this morning, and she talked about how she came home from the protest, and there were men all over her yard, in the neighbor's yard with machine guns. And she said they were trying to block her in, and they came up to her car and they had taken a picture of her license plate, and they're like, roll down your window. And she's like, why? And they're like, I gave you an order. She's like, but why? And then they took a picture of her face and they're like, now you have us in your database. And she's like, I'm not rolling down my window. Because when the last person did that, you shot him in the face(28:03):And she said they got out of their car and parked. And the neighbor who, I dunno why they were harassing her neighbor, she described him as a white male, but he was standing there and he was yelling at them to leave. And she said, at this time, there was like 50 neighbors out, like 50 people out on the street. And the ice van stopped, ran back, tackled him, slammed his face into the ice, beat him up, and then threw him in the back of the car and then dropped him off at the hospital or released him or something. And he had to go get wound care. And I guess just thinking about that, just the mere presence of white people that don't fit. I wonder if it's just the mere presence.Jenny (28:59):Yeah, yeah. Well, I think part of it is exposing the illusion of whiteness and this counterfeit collaboration that is supposed to mean based on melanin, that if you have this lack of melanin, this is how you're supposed to perform. And I'm really grateful that we have people with less melanin going, no, I would not that we want to die, but if my choice is to die or to give up my soul, I don't want to give up my soul.(29:50):I feel my heart pounding. It's scary. And I think there's also grief in the people I love that are choosing to not have a soul right now, to not allow space for their soul that are choosing to go into numbness and to bearing their head in the sand and to saying, we just need to have law and order. And I believe that they were made for so much more than that.(30:46):It is painful. I mean, it doesn't go(30:55):No, no. I've been watching a lot of sad movies lately because they helped me cry. One of the things that I loved when I was in Uganda was there was people who were professional whalers(31:12):They would be hired to come into funerals or ceremonies and just wail and grieve and move the group into a collective catharsis. And I really think our bodies need catharsis right now because there's so much we're taking in. There's so much we're moving through. And I think this is part of the system of white Christian supremacy, is that it has removed us from cultural practices of making guttural sounds together, of riving together, of dancing and shaking and screaming, and these things that I think our bodies really need individually and collectively. What are you doing in your body that feels even like 2% supportive with what we're navigating?Danielle (32:08):I don't know. I honestly, I've had a bad week or bad couple weeks, but I think I try to eat food that I know will taste good. That seems really silly, but I'm not eating anything I don't like.(32:27):That. Yeah, that's one thing. Yesterday I had a chance to go work out at 12 like I do every day, and I just noticed I was too fatigued, and so I just canceled. I called it in and ate lunch with someone and just, I didn't talk much, but they had a lot to say. So that was fine with me, hung out with someone. So I think, I don't know, I guess it was a hitting two needs for me, human face-to-face connection and also just actual food that tastes good to me.(33:09):Yeah. Well, so you're going to put that Maslow resource need in the chat or in the comments. Are you going to send it to me so I can put it in the(33:21):And then if people want to sign up for tomorrow and listen to you and Tamis, is that still a possibility?Jenny (33:26):It is, yeah. They can sign up, I think, until it's starting. So I don't know for sure. You should sign up for today, just by today, just in case. Yeah, I'll send you that link too.   Well, first I guess I would have to believe that there was or is an actual political dialogue taking place that I could potentially be a part of. And honestly, I'm not sure that I believe that.

What turns a failed seven-month marriage into an alleged eight-year obsession ending in double homicide?Michael McKee, a 39-year-old vascular surgeon, is charged with four counts of aggravated murder in the shooting deaths of his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer. Family members say Monique lived with McKee for only seven months before escaping what they describe as emotional abuse and repeated death threats. She divorced him in 2017, remarried in 2020, built a new life with two children. Prosecutors allege McKee drove six hours from Illinois, entered their home without forced entry, shot both victims at 3:52 AM, and drove back.In Part 1 of our three-part expert interview series, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott provides clinical analysis of the alleged perpetrator psychology. With over thirty years working in forensic settings and domestic violence programs — and as author of "The Minds of Mass Killers" — Shavaun brings deep expertise to these questions.We examine the "wound collector" profile identified by FBI profiler Joe Navarro. We explore how high-functioning individuals allegedly compartmentalize obsession. We analyze what allegedly triggers action after years of apparent fixation.

What happens inside a mind that allegedly can't let go for eight years?Michael McKee and Monique Tepe were married for two years on paper but lived together for roughly seven months before she fled. Family members describe emotional abuse and death threats during those brief months together. Eight years later, prosecutors allege McKee drove six hours to Columbus, entered the Tepe home without forced entry, and shot Monique and her husband Spencer to death while their children slept nearby.In this episode — Part 1 of our three-part interview series — psychotherapist Shavaun Scott breaks down the psychology of the alleged obsessive ex-partner. With over thirty years of experience working with perpetrators and victims of violence, and as the author of "The Minds of Mass Killers," Shavaun brings clinical expertise to the questions this case raises.Why does someone allegedly nurse a grievance for nearly a decade over a relationship that lasted less than a year? How does a successful surgeon allegedly compartmentalize obsession while maintaining a high-functioning career? What role does the victim's visible happiness — a new marriage, children, a thriving life — play in allegedly triggering violence? And what's the internal narrative that allegedly justifies years of fixation?This is the psychology behind the headlines.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #WoundCollector #ShavaunScott #TrueCrime #DomesticViolence #HiddenKillers #PerpPsychology #ColumbusJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

She talks about mood regulation and self-esteem with empathy. And she offers hard-won guidance for women with ADHD, especially moms. The conversation is honest — and likely to feel familiar to anyone who's ever felt like everyday life is too much to handle.For more on this topicListen: She broke the silence on ADHD shame in women (Sari Solden's story) Listen: She wrote the book on women, shame, and ADHDRead: ADHD and mood swingsFor a transcript and more resources, visit ADHD Aha! on Understood.org.

In today's episode, Trisha and I answer three powerful listener questions that so many women quietly struggle with. We talk about family estrangement — what's really happening when an adult child cuts off communication, the deep hurt and confusion it causes on all sides, and whether these breakdowns can be prevented or gently repaired. We also dive into long-term social anxiety. One listener shares her experience of living with anxiety since her teens, how bullying shaped her fear of speaking up, and the toll it's taking on a job she genuinely loves. We explore why “just pushing yourself” often makes things worse, what's happening in the nervous system, and what can actually help when anxiety feels overwhelming and ingrained. Finally, we look at people-pleasing and over-performing in conversations — the urge to say the right thing, be liked, keep the peace, and carry the emotional load — and why these patterns are so hard to break, even when you're aware of them. As always, Trisha McHale brings a compassionate, practical psychotherapist lens to each question, helping you understand what's really going on beneath the surface — and where real change starts.

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott delivers a complete three-part psychological analysis of the Nick Reiner case—examining what was happening in Nick's mind, how the Reiner family became trapped in a 30-year cycle, and why the mental health system failed despite unlimited resources.Nick was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder around 2020. His medication was changed one month before the murders after he complained about weight gain. Sources say he now admits killing his parents but believes his incarceration is a conspiracy. His meds still aren't stabilized.The Reiners had "grown used to" Nick's behavior. They brought him to parties because they were afraid to leave him alone. They paid for 18-plus rehab stays. Michele reportedly said "we've tried everything."Dr. Drew said 30-day programs were "almost meaningless" for Nick. He needed permanent custodial care. Patient autonomy laws let him refuse. The Reiners did everything families are told to do—and it still ended in tragedy. Shavaun explains what went wrong at every level and what other families need to understand.#NickReiner #RobReiner #TrueCrimeToday #MentalHealth #Psychology #FamilyDynamics #ShavaunScott #SystemFailure #SchizoaffectiveJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers LIVE to explain the psychology inside Nick Reiner's mind. We're taking your questions on schizoaffective disorder, medication destabilization, and how someone can admit to killing while believing their punishment is a conspiracy.Nick was reportedly stable until doctors changed his medication a month before the murders. Sources say he complained about weight gain. Now his meds still aren't stabilized and he's delusional in jail. What happens when psychotic disorders go untreated during a medication transition? What does the "conspiracy" framing tell us about his mental state? And can someone plan something methodically while genuinely not understanding what they're doing?Join us live with your questions.

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott explains how Rob and Michele Reiner became trapped in a cycle of crisis and normalization with their son Nick that lasted 30 years and ended in tragedy.Sources say the family had "grown used to" Nick's alarming behavior. At Conan O'Brien's party the night before the murders, other guests considered calling 911—but the Reiners just apologized and left. They paid for 18-plus rehab stays. Michele reportedly said "we've tried everything." And Nick lived in their guest house until the night he allegedly killed them.Shavaun breaks down the psychology of families who normalize behavior that would alarm strangers, how mentally ill individuals learn to manipulate the people who love them, and why unlimited resources couldn't save the Reiners. We also examine what happens to surviving family members after a parricide and why Nick's siblings reportedly oppose the death penalty.#NickReiner #RobReiner #TrueCrimeToday #FamilyDynamics #MentalHealth #Psychology #ShavaunScott #Enabling #ReinerCaseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers LIVE to break down the systemic failures that allowed Nick Reiner to cycle through treatment for 30 years without ever being properly helped. We're taking your questions on why the mental health system failed the Reiner family despite unlimited resources.Nick went to 18-plus rehab facilities. He'd stay 30 days, detox, and leave before any real psychiatric work could happen. Sources say doctors didn't put him on a psychiatric hold during his medication transition—a hold that could have lasted 14 days. Patient autonomy laws let him refuse treatment and walk away.What does appropriate care for schizoaffective disorder actually look like? Does it even exist? Why can't families with unlimited money get better outcomes?

Rob and Michele Reiner are dead. Their son Nick is charged with their murders. And millions of families watching this case are seeing their own nightmare reflected back at them.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins True Crime Today to examine what the Reiner family was really facing — and why their tragedy is a warning about a mental health system that keeps failing the people who need it most.The Reiners weren't negligent parents. They were desperate ones. For seventeen years, they tried to help a son who was struggling with addiction and, reportedly, schizophrenia. Eighteen treatment programs. World-class facilities. Unlimited resources. Rob Reiner himself admitted they felt lost, that they trusted professionals who couldn't deliver results, that they feared the tragic ending was coming.It came. And they're not alone.Shavaun explains what families face when someone they love has a severe mental illness. Why love and money aren't enough. Why the treatment industry so often fails. Why schizophrenia gets missed when addiction is the visible problem. She breaks down what happens when medication changes go wrong — sources say Nick became “erratic and dangerous” after a medication switch weeks before the killings.We also examine why families can't protect themselves. Conservatorship was reportedly in the works when Rob and Michele died. The legal system moves slowly. Mental illness doesn't wait. Shavaun explains the barriers families face and why intervention comes too late far too often.This case is getting attention because of who the Reiners were. But this story is playing out in families across America every single day — families with far fewer resources and even fewer options.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeToday #Schizophrenia #MentalHealth #TrueCrime #FamilyTragedy #MentalHealthCrisisJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We're going live with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott for a comprehensive conversation about the Nick Reiner case — not to assign blame, but to understand what millions of families are facing when someone they love is struggling with severe mental illness.Rob and Michele Reiner tried everything. They had resources most families can only dream of. And it still wasn't enough. That's not their failure. That's a system failure. And it's happening in communities across this country every single day.Shavaun will help us understand what families experience when a loved one has a severe mental illness. The impossible choices. The desperation. The heartbreak of watching someone you love suffer while feeling powerless to help. She'll explain what schizophrenia actually does to the brain, why it's so often missed when addiction is present, and what happens when medication transitions go wrong.We'll also talk about why intervention is so difficult in this country. Why conservatorship takes so long. Why families can't protect themselves from someone they love. Why the people who are supposed to help keep failing.Our audience has been sharing their own stories in overwhelming numbers. If you've dealt with this in your own family — a loved one with mental illness, the struggle to get help, the fear, the heartbreak — this conversation is for you.Bring your questions.

A childhood yoga instructor described Nick Reiner as "very, very intense" and so disruptive that his mother had to arrange private sessions. Sources say the family was scared of him for years. That Michele told a friend she didn't know what else they could do. That Nick had violent outbursts and was aggressive and unpredictable.Three to four weeks before the killings, his medication was changed and sources say he became "erratic and dangerous." The night before his parents were found dead, he got into an argument with his father at a party that was alarming enough for someone to consider calling 911.Every warning sign was there. Why didn't anyone intervene?Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins True Crime Today to examine the violence trajectory in the Nick Reiner case. She explains how mental health professionals assess whether someone is dangerous, what factors indicate escalating risk, and why families often can't protect themselves from someone they love.Shavaun breaks down the psychology of denial — the "he would never actually do it" belief that keeps families in harm's way. She examines what should have happened at key moments: the party confrontation, the medication change, the years of documented instability. And she explains why conservatorship proceedings — reportedly in the works at the time of the deaths — came too late.This episode also addresses the tension between mental illness and violence. Most people with schizophrenia aren't dangerous. Nick was. Shavaun helps us understand how to distinguish between someone who is sick and someone who poses a genuine threat.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeToday #WarningSigns #ViolenceRisk #MentalHealth #Escalation #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We're going live with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to break down the family dynamics at the center of the Nick Reiner case.This isn't about the crime itself. This is about the seventeen years that led up to it. The family system that couldn't say no. The parents who gave everything and got nothing back. The siblings who watched from the sidelines. The pattern that sources say is continuing even now — with estate money reportedly funding Nick's defense.Rob and Michele Reiner did everything for their son Nick. Eighteen rehab programs. Ten thousand dollars a month in allowance. A guest house on their property. A movie made together about his struggles. They absorbed his chaos, paid his bills, cleaned up his messes, and kept him close even when sources say they were afraid of him.Shavaun Scott will help us understand what was happening inside this family from a clinical perspective. Why couldn't they set boundaries? What kept them locked in a pattern of enabling that wasn't working? What happens to the other children when all the family's resources flow toward one sibling's problems? And what's driving the surviving siblings' decision to fund Nick's defense — is it love, guilt, or the same pattern that killed their parents?Join us live. Bring your questions. This is going to be a difficult conversation about what happens when love becomes the problem.#NickReiner #RobReiner #ShavaunScott #LiveStream #HiddenKillers #Codependency #FamilyDynamics #TrueCrime #Enabling #PsychologyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What does it look like when a family loves someone to death — literally?Rob and Michele Reiner spent nearly two decades trying to save their son Nick from addiction and mental illness. They had every resource imaginable. Two hundred million dollars. Access to the best treatment programs in the country. A willingness to do anything, pay anything, sacrifice anything. They restructured their entire lives around Nick's chaos.And on December 14th, 2025, they were allegedly stabbed to death by the son they couldn't stop saving.In this episode, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines the Reiner family system from a clinical perspective. What happens when one child's dysfunction becomes the center of gravity for an entire family? How do parents get trapped in patterns of enabling that they can't recognize or escape? What's the psychological experience of being Jake, Romy, or Tracy — the siblings who watched their parents pour everything into Nick while they learned to manage on their own?Shavaun breaks down the difference between support and enabling, the psychology of codependency, and why well-meaning parents often make problems worse. She examines Michele's reported statement to a friend — "I don't know what else we can do" — and explains what's happening when someone feels helpless but keeps repeating the same behaviors.This is the story of a family that couldn't set boundaries.

We're going live with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to talk about the mental illness at the center of the Nick Reiner case.Multiple outlets have reported that Nick was diagnosed with schizophrenia years before the killings. That he was under psychiatric care. That his medication was changed three to four weeks before December 14th. And that after that change, sources say he was "erratic and dangerous" and "out of his head."But what does any of that actually mean?This live episode is a clinical deep-dive. Shavaun will explain what schizophrenia really is — not the Hollywood version, but the clinical reality. What does it do to someone's brain? How does it affect their perception of the world? How does it interact with drug use? And why might someone with an undiagnosed psychotic disorder turn to substances in the first place?We'll also examine the treatment failure. Nick went through eighteen rehab programs focused on addiction. If schizophrenia was underlying his substance abuse, what were those programs actually doing? Why did it take years to get the right diagnosis? And what does good dual-diagnosis treatment look like versus facilities that just claim to offer it?Finally, we'll break down the medication change. What happens when you adjust psychiatric medication for someone with schizophrenia? What are the risks? What does destabilization look like? And who should have been monitoring Nick during that transition?Bring your questions. This is a clinical conversation.#NickReiner #Schizophrenia #ShavaunScott #LiveStream #HiddenKillers #MentalHealth #DualDiagnosis #RobReiner #Psychosis #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Niro has tips for dealing with grief, savoring key moments, knowing when to say "no," and even how to help kids (and adults) handle the influx of comparisons caused by social media and diverse holiday traditions. You can subscribe to Niro's newsletter, ⁠Three Good Things⁠ , for more on gratitude, relationships, and wellness. Jill Wagner (⁠@jillrwagner⁠) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist.
