Managing thick hair is no small feat, and we've got some hilarious stories to prove it! Join us for a lively chat that starts with some humor around Pride Month and quirky profile pictures, but swiftly transitions into relatable hair woes and amusing anecdotes. However, the episode takes a serious turn as we tackle the overuse of the term "trauma," its impact on genuine experiences, and the importance of trauma-informed teaching.
The conversation deepens as we explore the evolving understanding of trauma and autism diagnoses over the past two decades. We share personal stories and insights into how these diagnoses have been validated and the changes in terminology, such as the removal of Asperger's. The discussion also reflects on the stigma surrounding autism and learning disabilities and the improvements in diagnostic tools and awareness today. Along the way, we delve into the emotional and complex family situations involving accusations of abuse, addressing immediate reactions, justice, and societal views on punishing sexual predators.
Online negativity versus real-world kindness—there’s a stark difference, and we have the anecdotes to prove it. This episode wraps up with a thoughtful discussion on repeated traumatic experiences, exposure therapy, and the ever-growing toxicity of online environments. We share a hopeful outlook on younger generations distancing themselves from these toxic spaces and end with exciting plans to enhance listener engagement through social media and email.
