In this episode, Theresa addresses some common misconceptions about well-being, elaborating on the role of self-love in well-being. She reveals the potential consequences of prioritizing others at the expense of self-love, and vice versa. Together, Lu and Theresa weigh up various habits and practices that prove effective in maintaining the equilibrium of self-love and love for others. So, tune in this week for an insightful discussion that explores the complexities of love, and discover useful pointers for a loving, balanced life!

Shiyan Koh, Managing Partner of  Hustle Fund, and ​​Jeremy Au discussed: 1. Singapore Vetoes Allianz $4.4B Insurer Acquisition: They discussed the Singapore government's veto of the NTUC Income and Allianz merger, primarily over concerns of an undisclosed plan for $2B capital withdrawal post-merger. This case illustrated the delicate balance required between pursuing financial strategies and adhering to a social mission, especially in a cooperative structure transitioning to a corporatized entity. 2. NTUC 1961 History & Income Cooperative Mandate: They expanded on the broader historical role of National Trade Unions Congress with the People's Action Party since 1961, vs. the now-defunct leftist Singapore Association of Trade Unions (SATU). The central workers' union is the parent organization of NTUC Enterprise, which is a holding entity of multiple cooperatives and mission-based corporations like NTUC Fairprice (supermarkets), First Campus (childcare) and Income (insurance). They referenced analysis on other successful single-country insurer cooperatives benchmarks from former NTUC Enterprise & NTUC Income CEO Tan Suee Chieh. 3. Trump vs. Kamala Impact on Southeast Asia: Jeremy and Shiyan debated how the US election's potential outcomes could lead to dramatically different White House policies on free trade, capital gains and China relations - leading to significant ripple effects on Singapore & Southeast Asia. This highlights the deep interconnectivity of American political decisions with regional economic outcomes. Jeremy and Shiyan also touched on the impact of US interest rate cuts on global markets, the acceleration of Chinese companies entering Southeast Asia, and Singapore's higher number of work hours vs. America and the EU.

Journey into the darkest corners of the internet, where a deadly connection was forged in 140 characters or less. Synopsis (headphones recommended): A special edition 6-part series by The Straits Times in Singapore, exploring recent real crimes that gripped, horrified and laid bare the issues that afflicted societies in Asia. This is the sixth and final episode of True Crimes Of Asia, a special edition podcast series that started on April 25, 2023.

Takahiro Shiraishi baited suicidal victims on Twitter who wanted to die but lacked the courage to end their own lives. He posed as an expert in hanging but his real motives were sex and money. Shiraishi has been sentenced to death – by hanging – and is now in a maximum-security prison. The case had sparked conversations about social media scrutiny and suicide in Japan. ST's Japan correspondent Walter Sim narrates this podcast.

Our guest shares her experience with depression and suicidal ideation and how she overcame the unhealthy thoughts. Synopsis: Every first and third Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times helps you make sense of health matters that affect you. Recent data from non-profit suicide prevention centre Samaritans of Singapore (SOS) showed that 476 suicide deaths were reported in Singapore in 2022, the highest since 2000. Of the deaths in 2022, 125 involved those aged 10 to 29. This was 13 more than in 2021 and another high since 2000, which marks SOS' earliest recorded data. Suicide is complex but it is preventable. In this episode, ST's senior health correspondent Joyce Teo talks to Ms Sabrina Ooi, the chief executive and co-founder of Calm Collective Asia, which aims to normalise mental health conversations in Asia. Ms Ooi is 33. She was diagnosed with depression at 24, battled suicidal thoughts and lives with bipolar disorder.  Highlights (click/tap above): 4:38 Why we need to understand why a depressed person might see suicide as a "solution" 7:33 Sabrina Ooi shares how her dad prevented her from committing suicide on another occasion 9:28 How can we help a depressed person, who may also have suicidal thoughts? 14:18 Tips for parents/caregivers: A listening ear and encouragement to seek professional medical help is better than seeking instant internal family solutions 20:08 Being diagnosed with major depression at the age of 24; why being able to talk and not fearing judgment is crucial 29:23 Can mental health conditions be managed early in the same way general health matters are treated?

April 1, 2023 is the 20th anniversary of the Asian pop icon's death. Synopsis: Can I Tell You Something Crazy is a new scripted series under the #PopVultures banner, which examines with fresh eyes, events that shook Asian media and entertainment.  On April 1, 2003, the world was shocked by the loss of one of the most beloved, enduring and seductive stars to ever grace screens. Singer and actor Leslie Cheung died by suicide at the age of 46, leaping to his death from the 24th floor of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Hong Kong, after succumbing to a battle with severe depression. 2003 was a dark year for Hong Kong. The Sars epidemic ravaged the city. Yet, Cheung's death ignited a wave of public grieving, with people lining the streets outside his memorial to mourn him. The singer-actor was beloved and known for his androgynous style onstage and his acclaimed performances in films like Days Of Being Wild (1990), Farewell My Concubine (1993) and Happy Together (1997) onscreen. Off screen, his personal life, especially his sexuality, was highly scrutinised.  Host Jan Lee celebrates Cheung's life on the 20th anniversary of his death. She looks at the star's legacy as a queer icon - both in his pop music and his film roles - and how his tragic end highlighted the stigma around mental health and his own sexual orientation.

Our expert guests explain how mental health charity Mindset helps recovering patients. Synopsis: Every first and third Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times helps you make sense of health matters that affect you. Gaining employment can boost the self-esteem of someone who is recovering from a mental illness and facilitate their recovery. But the discrimination against people with mental illnesses may make it difficult for them to find work. The challenges that come with their illnesses may also make it hard for them to conform to traditional work norms such as fixed working hours. But there is help from mental health charities in the community. In this episode, ST senior health correspondent Joyce Teo finds out more about how Mindset, a mental health charity of the Jardine Matheson Group in Singapore, is helping mental health persons in recovery, find jobs as a way to reintegrate back into society. She speaks with the CEO of Mindset, Jeffery Tan and the head of Mindset, Ms Colyn Chua.  She asks them about the challenges these persons face and what employers can do to not just help them, but to raise awareness of mental health in general. She also asks Jeffery, who's also group general counsel and the chief sustainability officer of Jardine Cycle & Carriage, under the Jardine Matheson Group, if he has spoken openly about his mental health in the workplace. Highlights (click/tap above): 3:51 What jobs are available through Mindset? 8:34 Daily challenges faced by those in mental health recovery 10:59 Employer concerns regarding hiring those in mental health recovery 15:46 Understanding different types of mental health conditions 19:27 Tackling the stigma surrounding mental health disorders Produced by: Joyce Teo (joyceteo@sph.com.sg), Ernest Luis and Eden Soh Edited by: Eden Soh HELPLINES Samaritans of Singapore Hotline: 1-767; CareText: (WhatsApp) 9151-1767 (24-hour) Singapore Association for Mental Health: 1800 2837 019 Institute Of Mental Health: 6389 2222 (24-hour) Silver Ribbon Singapore: 6386 1928 Tinkle Friend: 1800 2744 788 and www.tinklefriend.sg Community Health Assessment Team: 6493 6500 and www.chat.mentalhealth.sg Care Corner Counselling Centre: 6353 1180 Touchline (Counselling): 1800 3772 252 Touch Care line (for seniors, caregivers): 6804 6555 Follow Health Check Podcast here and rate us: Channel: https://str.sg/JWaN Apple Podcasts: https://str.sg/JWRX Spotify: https://str.sg/JWaQ Google Podcasts: https://str.sg/J6Wv  SPH Awedio app: https://www.awedio.sg/ Website: http://str.sg/stpodcasts Feedback to: podcast@sph.com.sg Read Joyce Teo's stories: https://str.sg/JbxN --- Discover more ST podcast channels: In Your Opinion: https://str.sg/w7Qt Asian Insider: https://str.sg/JWa7 Health Check: https://str.sg/JWaN Green Pulse: https://str.sg/JWaf Your Money & Career: https://str.sg/wB2m ST Sports Talk: https://str.sg/JWRE #PopVultures: https://str.sg/JWad Music Lab: https://str.sg/w9TX Discover ST Podcasts: http://str.sg/stpodcasts Discover BT Podcasts: https://bt.sg/pcPL --- Special edition series: The Unsolved Mysteries of South-east Asia (5 eps): https://str.sg/wuZ2 Invisible Asia (9 eps): https://str.sg/wuZn Stop Scams (10 eps): https://str.sg/wuZB Singapore's War On Covid (5 eps): https://str.sg/wuJa --- Follow our shows then, if you like short, practical podcasts! #healthcheckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Synopsis: Every first and third Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times helps you make sense of health matters that affect you. The Covid-19 pandemic has brought greater awareness to mental health.

Krigen i Ukraina fører til enorme flyktningstrømmer, særlig til Polen, som allerede har et overbelastet helsevesen grunnet pandemien. Mange flyktninger har kroniske sykdommer som ikke er direkte knyttet til krigen, og også disse har behov for helsehjelp. De mange sanksjonene mot Russland fører dessuten også til at den russiske befolkningen lider, særlig de som har behov for kreftbehandling. Hvorvidt det er riktig å boikotte russiske forskningsinstitusjoner diskuteres fortsatt – og hva betyr alt dette for den russiske koronavaksinen, Sputnik V? Det foreligger dessuten mer forskning på langtidseffekten av covid-19-sykdom, hvilke koronavaksiner som funker best som boosterdoser, bruk av litium mot demens og gjeld i forbindelse med bruk av helsetjenester i USA.

Suicide is a sensitive, stigmatized topic. Hence, we avoid discussing it. This could lead to misconceptions and unhealthy judgments around it. On this episode, Jenny Teo shares vulnerably about losing her son Josh to suicide; the factors at play, the trauma she went through, and her tough journey of recovery. We also discuss suicide and mental health in society, and what we must do to become more inclusive and emphatic towards those in pain. This was by far the most difficult podcast I hosted. I cannot imagine the pain that Jenny and Josh had to go through. Yet, I am comforted by the fact that she found the strength to turn her pain into purpose. As Jenny shares: “I do not want Josh's death to be in vain. Everytime I speak, I can feel his presence. I am his mouthpiece”. We hope that by recording this, more people can ask ‘Why the Pain?', instead of asking ‘Why Suicide?' Do support Jenny's advocacy and education work below: She runs Stigma 2 Strength Singapore. In Memory of Josh Isaac. It's an initiative that aims to apply a more unconventional approach in addressing the topic of suicide and all other stigmas, from the perspective of one with "lived experience" ie evidence-based merged with research-based narratives https://www.facebook.com/S2SJJ Jenny is also part of PleaseStay. Movement. It's a movement started by a group of mothers who lost their children to suicide. In the midst of their grief and pain, they found the strength to come together to advocate for suicide prevention and more support for children at risk of self-harm. https://www.facebook.com/PleaseStayMovementSingapore If you need someone to talk to, here are some numbers you can call: IMH Mental Health Helpline: 6389 2222.

The fourth episode in our podcast A World Where LivingWorks is “Putting Care in Healthcare”.
