Psychotherapist Meghan Riordan Jarvis on the Importance of Understanding Grief as a Path Toward Living Healthier Lives

Meghan Riordan Jarvis was a practicing psychotherapist when she found herself devastated by the loss of her two parents.  She suddenly saw she was no different from those she helped, but she still needed outside support to recover.  In this Blue Sky episode, she describes how this realization led her to become an expert about grief and an advocate for all of us to learn about this important and challenging part of life.       Chapters:  02:20 Journey to Psychotherapy  Megan shares her personal journey into psychotherapy, beginning with a ‘normal breakup' that led her to seek therapy. This experience uncovered an unacknowledged childhood trauma, sparking her interest in understanding human behavior and emotions.  06:30 From Teacher to Campaign Manager  Megan recounts her early career, which included earning a master's degree in early childhood education and a brief stint as a campaign manager in D.C. This period of professional uncertainty, coupled with a dissolved relationship, propelled her further into therapy and solidified her path towards psychotherapy.  09:17 Experiencing Grief Firsthand  Megan discusses her personal experience with grief after losing both parents, particularly the sudden death of her mother. Despite her professional expertise, she found herself profoundly destabilized, experiencing traumatic grief that mirrored the struggles of her own patients.  13:04 Clinician's Fury at Personal Grief  Megan recounts her frustration and ‘fury' as a psychotherapist experiencing severe personal grief, realizing her education didn't shield her from its intensity. Her inpatient trauma treatment revealed the profound difference between theoretical knowledge and the embodied experience of loss.  15:55 Bridging Mental and Physical Health  Megan advocates for dissolving the cultural divide between physical and mental health, highlighting how societal biases hinder seeking help for grief. She draws parallels between adolescent growth and the transformative, often messy, process of grieving, emphasizing its physical and mental impacts.  21:38 Grief as a Transformative Process  Megan explains how grief, though painful, can be a transformative process leading to ‘traumatic growth' and new purpose. She details her Grief Mentor Method, a personalized approach to developing daily practices and tools like the ‘grief EpiPen' to manage intense emotional and physical responses to loss.  26:50 Normalizing and Processing Grief  Megan emphasizes the importance of normalizing grief and understanding it extends far beyond crying. She introduces the ‘grief mentor method,' which focuses on physical system connection, distinguishing between nervous systems, nourishing practices, storytelling, and connecting with external support, including ‘finding your five' to test sharing your story.  31:56 Grief in Education and the Workplace  Megan highlights the physical impact of grief on the body's 12 systems, citing statistics on increased heart attack risk for widowers. She passionately advocates for integrating grief education into schools and professional training, noting the lack of comprehensive grief studies in psychotherapy programs and the need for better workplace support.  39:24 Supporting Grievers: Practical Tips  Megan offers practical advice for supporting someone in grief, emphasizing collective effort and long-term planning, ideally for a year or more.   46:30 Megan's Resources and Farewell  Bill Burke reviews Megan's diverse offerings, including her memoirs, ‘Can Anyone Tell Me Essential Questions about Grief and Loss?', her podcast ‘Grief is My Side Hustle,' and her corporate and online courses. Megan details how individuals, helpers, and leaders can access her work via her website and Instagram.

“This really is the full motivation for my having written the memoir. I want people to know what the process is like; not only what the process is like but what the feelings are that don't really make you think of psychoanalysis as a way of changing your life. We're just living and hoping that things will change without really taking account of the fact that we could be living better lives and in a better way. I began to think of the ways of the world and the wickedness in it. There's so many things that we do to keep us going - me and my aphrodisiacs, and I think other people doing other things just to divert them from the misery and unhappiness that they feel.  I don't know how often that's looked at or discussed, so I hope the book does open that up a little bit.”  Episode Description: We begin with Beverly's description of her early years of feeling lost and the consequent self-destructive patterns she replayed. Years of sensation-seeking led her to become "exhausted, limp, tarnished, and each time, more profoundly lost." She "landed on an analyst's couch in Little Venice, a section of London. I was paying for someone to recognize me. She did." Beverly shares her analytic journey with us and how vital her discovery of 'kindness' was, first from the outside and then from within. We discuss the early death of her father, her mother's depression and the devotion of her older brother.  She closes with "Like life, psychoanalysis is a continuing process. It doesn't stop...issues crop up, new feelings arise...we better understand what those feelings are telling us, and how to make use of them in an environment we have been able to choose for ourselves. And so it goes…"   Our Guest:  Beverly Kolsky, MSW has worked as a psychotherapist for more than forty years both in America and in England.  She trained as a psychoanalyst with the New York Institute for Psychoanalytic Self Psychology also and received training in London where she worked under the auspices of the Tavistock Clinic and the Institute of Marital Studies. Her work has been published in two journals:  Mind Consiliums and Voices: Art and Science of Psychotherapy. She had two psychoanalytic experiences in two countries with analysts of two different orientations. Her motivation for writing the book as a memoir was to let others in the community know the transformative and enduring power of psychoanalysis. She was in private practice in Englewood, N.J. and now lives, mostly retired, in the northern Adirondacks.   Recommended Readings: Jung, C.G. 1963. Memories, Dreams, Reflections.

That voice belonged to davidji.Today, davidji is not only a bestselling author as well as a teacher to Navy SEALs and CEOs, he's a great friend of mine.

Do you spend a lot of time worrying about whether someone is mad at you? Do you avoid sharing your opinion because you don't want to be disliked?

Together, we explore the roots of fawning, how it impacts our lives, and the steps you can take to stop worrying about what others think and start living for yourself. Some of the things we talk about are: What fawning is and how it differs from people-pleasing. Why fawning is a survival response that has likely protected you in the past. The signs you might be fawning. The dangers of becoming a people-pleaser. Why relationships are the key to healing from fawning. How to learn reconnect with your own needs.

After exploring 'Knowledge,' they dive into the crucial difference between the perfect rules of Formal Logic (how we ought to think) and the messy, emotional terrain of Psychological Logic (how we actually think). Byron will explore the historical rift between logic and psychology (Psychologism), the "illogical" rules governing the Unconscious Mind (Freud), and how Cognitive Biases become a client's own faulty internal 'logic.'

If Wendi Adelson KNEW: Psychotherapist Breaks Down the Mind Games Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins the conversation, bringing a professional lens to the question haunting the case: what if Wendi Adelson actually knew? In this segment, the team explores the psychology of complicity. Could Wendi's scattered interview responses reflect someone who was covering up knowledge of her family's role in Dan Markel's murder? Shavaun explains how people in enmeshed families often compartmentalize, splitting their lives into separate realities. On the outside, Wendi was a respected law professor and mother. But if she knew, privately she may have been carrying the weight of a devastating secret — one that fractured her identity into two halves. The discussion also highlights Donna Adelson's outsized role as a domineering, controlling matriarch. Raised in that environment, Wendi may have lacked the tools to assert independence. If she knew her family was involved, how could she have processed that truth while still functioning in her professional and public life? The conversation paints a chilling picture of how someone could live with knowledge of a horrific crime and still present a polished, even sympathetic, exterior. And it raises the question: if Wendi knew, how much of her behavior was guilt — and how much was survival inside a toxic family system?

We've never had more freedom in our relationships—yet many of us feel more disconnected than ever. Marriage, family, and even the workplace have all been reshaped by shifting norms, new technologies, and rising expectations. Happiness, once a nice-to-have, is now the very glue that keeps both couples and teams together.Few people understand these changes better than Esther Perel. For decades, she's helped us rethink intimacy, navigate conflict, and reimagine what a healthy connection looks like—at home and now at work with her new conversation inducing game of questions, Where Should We Begin? At Work. Esther and I explore how our ideas of love and partnership have evolved, why friendships can be just as life-giving as romance, and why learning to “talk to strangers” may be the most important skill for the next generation. We also dive into the role of play, trust, and risk-taking in building lasting bonds.If you care about creating relationships that are strong enough to withstand the pressures of modern life, this episode might just be for you.This is A Bit of Optimism.To learn more about Esther's work, visit: www.estherperel.comAnd to check out Where Should We Begin?

This week, we're revisiting Thomas' conversation with Esther Perel, a renowned psychotherapist, NYT bestselling author, and host of the podcast “Where Should We Begin?” They're also joined by her husband, Jack Saul, an artist, author, and psychologist. It's a deep discussion on working with trauma survivors, the healing power of creativity, and addressing the impacts of intergenerational trauma in therapy.Esther defines the “erotic” as a feeling of aliveness and vibrancy that transcends the context of romance. She shares how embracing this fundamental part of our humanity helps us survive traumatic circumstances and release the constriction and expectation of harm that often accompanies trauma. This is a powerful conversation that highlights how individual healing is deeply intertwined with collective healing, moving our understanding of therapeutic experiences beyond the isolated office into a shared space of transformation. It's one of our favorite conversations that we aired in the early days of Point of Relation, and we're excited to share it with you.✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:

Kohberger's “Mom Text” & Donna's Grand Piano: How Loyalty Turns Criminal

Kohberger's “Mom Text” & Donna's Grand Piano: How Loyalty Turns Criminal Today's full Hidden Killers Live digs into two explosive storylines and a deep psychological dive that ties them together. First, we unpack a new detail in the Bryan Kohberger case: the night-after exchange with his mother, including a link she sent describing the victim's bruises and fight back. Was it innocent true-crime chatter between a mom and her criminology-student son—or something far more unsettling in hindsight? We connect that moment to Kohberger's narrow fixations, the “coffee shop girl,” and his Jekyll/Hyde letters to Washington State University—groveling in one breath, arrogant and contemptuous toward a female professor in the next. Then we pivot to Donna Adelson and the trial reality closing in. We break down the jailhouse witness who says Donna scripted her testimony word-for-word, promised packages and phone time, even floated $10,000, veneers, and a grand piano—with Harvey allegedly wired in via Zelle/Signal. We weigh how much of that is Donna's mouth versus a real logistics web, and whether character-witness “coffee friends” help or hurt her in front of a jury. Hour two zooms out to the system beneath the headlines: enmeshed families. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony, Stacy, and Todd to map the continuum (disengaged → balanced → enmeshed), cultural norms around close-knit loyalty, and how a narcissistic parent converts “love” into control. We get granular on roles (golden child, scapegoat), why kids learn not to push back, how “mom in your head” can sabotage adult relationships and marriages, and why some adult children feel literal relief when a controlling parent dies. We also confront the hard question: how does enmeshment escalate from everyday manipulation to high-stakes loyalty—the kind that risks careers, freedom, and, in the Adelson world, alleged cover-ups? If you're following the Kohberger case, the Adelson trial, or you've lived inside a family where loyalty and control got tangled, this is two hours of context, questions, and candid conversation.

Kohberger's “Mom Text” & Donna's Grand Piano: How Loyalty Turns Criminal Today's full Hidden Killers Live digs into two explosive storylines and a deep psychological dive that ties them together. First, we unpack a new detail in the Bryan Kohberger case: the night-after exchange with his mother, including a link she sent describing the victim's bruises and fight back. Was it innocent true-crime chatter between a mom and her criminology-student son—or something far more unsettling in hindsight? We connect that moment to Kohberger's narrow fixations, the “coffee shop girl,” and his Jekyll/Hyde letters to Washington State University—groveling in one breath, arrogant and contemptuous toward a female professor in the next. Then we pivot to Donna Adelson and the trial reality closing in. We break down the jailhouse witness who says Donna scripted her testimony word-for-word, promised packages and phone time, even floated $10,000, veneers, and a grand piano—with Harvey allegedly wired in via Zelle/Signal. We weigh how much of that is Donna's mouth versus a real logistics web, and whether character-witness “coffee friends” help or hurt her in front of a jury. Hour two zooms out to the system beneath the headlines: enmeshed families. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony, Stacy, and Todd to map the continuum (disengaged → balanced → enmeshed), cultural norms around close-knit loyalty, and how a narcissistic parent converts “love” into control. We get granular on roles (golden child, scapegoat), why kids learn not to push back, how “mom in your head” can sabotage adult relationships and marriages, and why some adult children feel literal relief when a controlling parent dies. We also confront the hard question: how does enmeshment escalate from everyday manipulation to high-stakes loyalty—the kind that risks careers, freedom, and, in the Adelson world, alleged cover-ups? If you're following the Kohberger case, the Adelson trial, or you've lived inside a family where loyalty and control got tangled, this is two hours of context, questions, and candid conversation.

Bryan Kohberger's Prison Meltdown: Complaints, Control & Collapse Bryan Kohberger once carried himself like the smartest man in the room — the criminology PhD student who thought he could outthink investigators, classmates, maybe even the law itself. But the mask has slipped, and the picture we're seeing from inside Idaho's maximum-security prison is one of collapse. Within weeks of being placed in J-Block, Kohberger began flooding staff with handwritten complaints. He demanded “full trays” of vegan food, griped about substitutions on his meals, and accused inmates of screaming threats at him through the vents. He even begged for a transfer out of his unit, describing the environment as unbearable. The man who once studied criminal minds with detached superiority now obsesses over cafeteria menus and taunts from other inmates. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski to analyze why killers like Kohberger unravel so quickly when stripped of control. Prison life magnifies every psychological crack. For narcissistic and obsessive personalities, humiliation is poison — and in Kohberger's case, it's everywhere. The taunts, the food, the rigid schedule he cannot bend to his will — they all chip away at the illusion of control he's clung to for years. What does this mean for his mental future? Will he deteriorate into psychosis, like others have in solitary confinement? Or will he remain trapped in an endless cycle of petty grievances, a man who once imagined himself as a criminal mastermind reduced to fighting over mashed peas? This episode takes you inside Kohberger's prison meltdown — and shows how confinement doesn't just punish the body, but shatters the fragile ego of a man who thought he'd never be caged.

Relationships have the power to change lives in ways both visible and hidden. Deep, supportive bonds can quiet inflammation in the body, protect against disease, and anchor people through decades of triumphs and trials. Communities that come together—whether in small groups at a church or around a shared health goal—often achieve far more than individuals working alone, sometimes transforming their health on a massive scale. Lifelong friends celebrate each other's victories without jealousy, weather hardship side by side, and dare to speak difficult truths even at the risk of the relationship. Yet, many remain in unfulfilling connections out of fear of loneliness, forgetting that genuine, vulnerable connection is not just emotionally nourishing—it is essential to human health and resilience. In this episode, I talk with Simon Sinek, Esther Perel, and Angelika Alana about how relationships are vital not just for emotional health, but for physical wellbeing and can be a great source of growth and healing. Simon is a spark that ignites passion and ideas. He envisions a world where people wake up inspired, feel safe, and end their day fulfilled. As an unshakeable optimist and trained ethnographer, Simon is fascinated by people and organizations that make a lasting impact. He has discovered remarkable patterns in how they think, act, and communicate, revealing how people perform at their best. Simon is widely known for his TED Talk on "WHY" and his viral video on millennials in the workplace. Through bestselling books like Start with WHY and his podcast A Bit of Optimism, he continues to inspire. Founder of The Optimism Company and Optimism Press, Simon shares innovative views on leadership, attracting international attention. He also works with the U.S. government, the RAND Corporation, and in 2021, founded The Curve to reform modern policing, advancing justice with dignity, equity, and fairness. Psychotherapist and New York Times bestselling author Esther Perel is recognized as one of today's most insightful and original voices on modern relationships. Fluent in nine languages, she helms a therapy practice in New York City and serves as an organizational consultant for Fortune 500 companies around the world. Her celebrated TED Talks have garnered more than 30 million views and her bestselling books, Mating in Captivity and The State of Affairs, are global phenomena translated into nearly 30 languages. Esther is also an executive producer and host of the popular podcasts Where Should We Begin? and How's Work? Her latest project is Where Should We Begin - A Game of Stories with Esther Perel.
