In this episode, Dr. Robert Wright and I discuss how useful it is to be able to talk in more depth about pain to your doctor. Unfortunately, we don’t currently do this, but there is no reason for us not to try!

In this episode, I’ll go through the evidence for internet-based CBT and try to apply it to a very near-and-dear Squid Game character to see if I could help him (or if he could help himself by enrolling in this intervention).

In this episode, I discuss various factors that change the pain experience differently depending on race/ethnicity: individual patient factors, medical provider factors such as bias, and system factors like access to healthcare. Does this resonate with you?

In this episode, we see if the way researchers define and measure resilience actually lines up with the real world. If you want a look at what actually happens in psychological research and what psychologists are thinking, this is the place for you!
Are there people you find resilient? Perhaps fictional characters like Disney’s Mulan or Tolkien’s Gandalf. Maybe real life public figures like Simone Biles, Serena Williams, or Malala Yousafzai. Maybe people you personally know like your parents or even yourself (especially having gone through a pandemic that is nearing its 2-year anniversary). Do these people match the definitions that researchers use?

In this episode, we talk about all of the different paths resiliency can take. It isn't a one-size-fits-all sort of deal. We are all unique in our paths, have different experiences and different resources. If you come across this and want to talk, let us know! We want to help however we can.

In this episode, we talk about how the factors that lead up to and help reduce hypertension are actually different across Asian subgroups. This opens up so many questions and considerations for future work that include Asians (or any ethnicity that research lumps together).
