In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the growing cultural force of social media influencers. Given what these influencers can make for simply sharing their opinions through their social media platform of choice, it's led many young people from Gen Z and Gen Alpha to aspire to become influencers themselves - a goal that a very minuscule percentage will attain. It's also interesting to note how willing people are to take the advice of influencers who, quite frankly, sometimes know very little about what they are even promoting. Episode Links Today's discussion was prompted by a Pew Research article titled “Who U.S. Adults Follow on TikTok,” revealing that users in the United States follow pop culture and entertainment personalities at a far greater rate than politicians or news organizations. And as mentioned earlier, young people today are increasingly saying they want to follow in the footsteps of social media influencers to become internet stars themselves. We'd encourage you to check out these articles to read more about that: Jacob Dirnhuber, “Children Turn Backs on Traditional Careers in Favour of Internet Fame, Study Finds,” The Sun. Tanith Carey, “Can Social Media School Make Your 16-Year-Old a Star?” The Telegraph. They also discussed how pastors and clergy are losing their influence on culture as more and more people have witnessed moral failings of pastors. This was discussed in CCP4: On Pastors and Moral Failings and CCP31: On Celebrity Pastors. Finally, when Alexis asked what the church could do to increase its reach and influence, Dr. White stressed the urgency for churches to have a stronger presence online - meeting culture where they are at in the world in which they live. You can read more about this in his book Hybrid Church: Rethinking the Church for a Post-Christian Digital Age.

In this podcast episode, host Jeffrey Biesecker reflects on the year 2023 and the deep exploration of the human experience that has taken place. The episode acknowledges that while the holiday season can be joyful for many, it can also be a time of challenge and loneliness. The top downloaded episode of the year is revisited, delving into the topic of anhedonia, a condition that robs individuals of joy and leaves them feeling empty. The episode concludes with warm wishes for the holiday season and a reminder to reach out to those who may be in need of support. In moments of our deepest despair, its often hard to feel like there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and for those who experience anhedonia - its often difficult to feel emotions at all.  Today we learn  Anhedonia is not a permanent state; it's a chapter in the complex story of being human. Join us as we embark on this emotional journey, with author, Tanith Carey, as we exploring anhedonia from all angles, sharing Tanith's story of resilience.  Carey describes the experience of waking up to a world devoid of colors and melodies, where happiness and the ability to feel anything have been replaced by an overwhelming sense of emptiness. Jeffrey and Tanith delve into the ache and constant dull pain that accompanies anhedonia, as well as the numbing of the senses.  Despite this desolate landscape, there remains a flicker of hope and a longing for the return of emotions. Join Jeffrey as he explores the journey from despair to finding the light at the end of the tunnel. As a psychological phenomenon, Anhedonia, the silent thief of joy, wraps its cold fingers around every inch of your being. Not only is it the lack of happiness, but it's also losing the ability to feel anything, leaving behind an overwhelming sense of emptiness. We shed light on the path to rediscovering the beauty of emotions and guide you through the labyrinth of feelings that shape our lives. Time stamps: [00:01:10] The ache of anhedonia.

My guest this time is Tanith Carey: Tanith is an award-winning writer and author of 12 books on psychology, parenting and social history, her writing has been featured in the Daily Telegraph, The Sunday Times, The Spectator and the Sydney Morning Herald. Her latest book is called ‘Feeling ‘Blah'?: Why anhedonia has left you joyless and how to recapture life's highs.'   In this interview we cover: How she noticed a ‘lack of joy' in her own day to day life and subsequently discovered the term “anhedonia” for the first time whilst late-night Googling the clash between our 'cave-dweller brain' and our 'always-on/more, more, more' modern world of comparison culture and how this hijacks our dopamine reward circuits to create a perfect breeding ground for anhedonia  what dopamine is actually ‘for' - it may not be what you think… our inbuilt ‘negativity bias' and how to combat it “glimmers” - little moments of joy that can help reduce cortisol levels how oestrogen and our other hormones impact the 'feel good chemicals' in us as cyclical beings and especially in peri/menopause how stress is the greatest enemy of joy there is…and how anticipation of ‘planned in' activities that bring rest, enjoyment, or feed our ‘spark' can make such a big difference to how we feel how joy is actually made up of three different components, rather than being just one thing how behavioural activation works  how we 'get our mojo back' - the ‘water pump' analogy the impact of exercise and gratitude on our mood the difference between anhedonia and depression   And much, much more!

How much do you enjoy your life? Do you feel as if your emotions have flatlined? In perimenopause, we often feel low, not quite like ourselves, even if there is nothing fundamentally wrong. We have supportive partners and friends, great kids, and a job we enjoy and yet life feels dull and grey. Can you relate?This is anhedonia – a word only a few of us have heard of but one that explains why so many of us feel we are sleepwalking through life. Anhedonia is from the Greek word for 'without pleasure' and describes a loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed. It explains why many of us spend our lives in a fog, feeling neither happy nor sad, just not very much at all. This week my guest is British author and journalist Tanith Carey who joins me to talk about the missing grey area in mental health - blah- where too many mid-life women are living their lives.Great news is that midlife women don't have to accept this as the status quo. Blah has a range of biological and environmental reasons that can be tackled to live up to your potential. Simple awareness that 'blah' is 'a thing' is the first step to addressing through a range of approaches and putting together a toolbox of resources that works for you. With the help of world-leading experts and by digging into the latest research, Tanith shows you how your brain's dopamine reward system works and provides strategies to help you bring colour back into your life. Specifically, we dive into:* How did Tanith come across anhedonia - and why most of us haven't heard about it?* How did she discover a way out of it - and what has it meant in her life?* How other mid-life women find their reasons for blah - and find a way out of it.This is the episode that will teach you how to kickstart your feel-good chemicals and start loving life again.You can connect with Tanith on Instagram @no_more_blah_book, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn on @tanithcarey Get full access to Heart of Menopause at clarissakristjansson.substack.com/subscribe

Tanith Cary, author of Feeling Blah?, clues us in on the science behind anhedonia, the technical term for “feeling blah.” Teens are reporting high levels of depression and anhedonia—we explore what parents can do to combat it. If you've enjoyed Talking to Teens, we'd love if you could leave us a five-star rating, and if you have time, a review!  Follow us on Social Media!

Something a little bit different on the podcast today - we ARE going to talk about teenagers, and how they're affected by toxic relationships when things go wrong for their parents. But FIRST we talk about something a lot of us midlife mums (and dads) might relate to - FEELING BLAH. That's the title of my guest's book. Parenting author Tanith Carey writes a lot about the teenage brain. She had a tough time when her parents divorced, but it was midlife when she noticed that despite having a happy life on paper, she wasn't really feeling it. She researched this feeling that wasn't depression, but wasn't happiness either, and discovered a little used word for it - ANHEDONIA. Feeling Blah? Why anhedonia has left you joyless, and how to recapture life's highs* is an exploration of what causes the lacklustre feeling so many of us go through at times. She explains the science behind it, and - better still - tells us what to do to move beyond it and feel excited for life again. *Affiliate link She also talks me through her parents' divorce, and the toxic atmosphere she lived in before they separated. We discuss the impact that had on her emotional development, and how she developed coping strategies that affected how she would feel about life decades later. If you've ever found yourself overthinking your feelings, this is the conversation for you. Who is Tanith Carey? Tanith Carey is an author who writes books which use the latest research to offer a lucid analysis of the most pressing challenges for today's parents. Her eleven books have been translated into 25 languages. She has written on the impact of competitive parenting on children and parents, plus friendship issues, and is one of the UK media's leading commentators on girls' well-being.

In a shocking report out today MPs say too many women who've survived domestic abuse are ending up in appalling accommodation operated by rogue landlords who exploit housing benefit loopholes to cash in on a ‘gold rush' of taxpayers' money. Some women and their children find themselves housed in mixed-sex provision, or even alongside their perpetrators. The current rules mean anyone can set up what is called Exempt Accommodation if they offer care, support, or supervision that is ‘more than minimal'. One provider left a loaf of bread and some jam to achieve that standard. Others say fitting CCTV is enough to qualify. The All Party Parliamentary Select Committee on Levelling Up Housing and Communities make a number of recommendations aimed at stopping unscrupulous operators getting enhanced housing benefit without providing the wraparound support and staff they're meant to offer survivors of domestic abuse. Krupa Padhy talks to the Chair of the Committee Clive Betts Labour MP and Becky Rogerson, CEO of Wearside Women in Need. In 1691, a journalist called John Dunton was having an affair and realised there was no one he could ask for advice about it without revealing his identity. Realising his situation couldn't be unique, he invited readers of his newspaper to submit their problems. Today agony aunt columns are the mainstay of the back pages of our newspapers and magazines. But why do we still seek comfort from the written advice of strangers? Krupa Padhy is joined by best-selling author and Sunday Times Style agony aunt Dolly Alderton, and author of ‘Never Kiss A Man in a Canoe,' Tanith Carey. Yesterday marked 40 days since the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini who died in police custody after being arrested for allegedly wearing her hijab “improperly”. Thousands of mourners gathered near Amini's grave in her hometown of Saqqez where Iranian police reportedly fired live rounds and tear gas at the crowds. Protests have taken place across the country since Mahsa's death on 16th September and women have been at the forefront of the movement, removing their headscarves and cutting their hair in public in solidarity. Faranak Amidi, the BBC's Near East women affairs reporter, joins Krupa. On Woman's Hour we talk about girls a lot, how we raise them, keeping them safe, their mental and physical health but we don't often talk to them. For an occasional series called Girl's World, Ena Miller went to talk to India and Alice at their school about their lives, the things they think about, chat about and worry about. She took along her teenage diary to jog her memory about the secret world of the teenage girl. When Una Marson became the BBC's first black radio producer and presenter in the 1940s, she brought Caribbean voices and culture to a global audience. Krupa speaks to actor Seroca Davis on playing Una in BBC2's documentary-drama ‘Una Marson, Our Lost Caribbean Voice'.

In today's episode of Mum-to-Mum Monday, we'll be finding out how to put your child's well-being first in a competitive world. By doing so, you'll get permission to take your foot off the gas and reclaim a more relaxed family life. My guest today is SuperMum, Tanith Carey. Tanith is an award-winning journalist and writes for many of the major UK broadsheets. She's a best-selling parenting author of seven books, and has appeared on the major UK morning shows as a parenting expert. Tanith and her husband live in London with their two daughters who are 11 and 14. Today we'll be taking to Tanith about her critically-acclaimed book called ‘Taming the Tiger Parent: How to Put Your Child's Well-Being First in a Competitive World'. From the moment the umbilical cord is cut, today's parents often feel trapped in a never-ending race to ensure their child is the brightest and the best. Mozart in the womb, Baby Einstein DVDs for newborns, and learning apps for toddlers is just the beginning. And while it's completely natural for us to want our kids to reach their potential, at what point does too much competition become damaging not only to our children, but to us as mums? In this episode, we'll explore the effects that competitive parenting has on us as women, how the extra work load of out-of-school activities is affecting us, and the impact it's having on our relationships with our partner, our children and our family life. Tanith will help us examine more closely the choices we make for our children's free time, and look at it from a bigger picture perspective. She helps us question whether, in trying to do the absolute best by our children, we might actually be creating unnecessary problems for ourselves and them. I'm overjoyed to have Tanith with me on the podcast today, because she can teach us so much about how to tame our inner tiger parent which will free up more time for the things that really matter.
