    In our final episode of Season Two, we are in conversation with Abbey Brown. As Technical Lead for the Clean Fuel Standard with the Washington Department of Ecology, Abbey is on the front line of working for structural and systemic changes.

  • Stacey Moniz: In the Aftermath of the Fires on Maui
    Nov 9 2023

    This week we are joined by Stacey Moniz. As a beloved community member who is deeply rooted on the island, Stacey generously shares with us where things stand currently and helps us understand the complicated and entrenched forces that contributed to this disaster unfolding as it did. Stacey & Laura discuss grief & loss, the ineffable pain that continues to course through the island, the profound strength and devotion of her family, friends, colleagues, and fellow community members and - importantly - what we can all learn from this tragedy.

  • Dr. Lisa Wade: Sex & Hookup Culture
    Nov 2 2023

    Sex & hookup culture is what Dr. Lisa Wade and Laura talk about this week. Having written t-h-e book on hookup culture, American Hookup: The New Culture of Sex on Campus, we couldn’t be in better hands for this ever more important and deeply relevant conversation. Because hookup culture intimately ties to so much else in our society, this conversation is meaningful whether or not you, or someone you care about, is on a campus. Dr. Wade has a great amount of expertise but remains accessible, feels strongly but remains credible. An extremely tough balance to strike. For everyone who will be helped by your work, thank you, Dr. Wade!

  • Dr. Rafael Pelayo: Sleep! How & Why
    Oct 26 2023

    Sleep! It’s something we all do & yet so many of us don’t understand, exactly, why it’s critical and how to truly get good/restorative sleep. Dr. Rafael Pelayo has spent decades of his career studying & treating sleep issues and disorders. This was both a lot of fun & very informative as Dr. Pelayo knows so [!] much about sleep and it seems like there is not a sleep issue that’s eluded him during his long career. We’re so grateful to Dr. Pelayo for providing us with such concrete guidance and many practical do’s & don’ts.

  • Sarah Weber: OCD. What It Is & Is Not
    Oct 19 2023

    Obsessive thoughts and compulsive behavior remain widely misunderstood. We are fortunate to be joined this week by Sarah Weber who has worked for years as an art therapist and mental health counselor. While many listening may not have ever felt the experience of obsessing about something, you likely know someone who does. Now and then or regularly. Sarah walks us through so much practical and instructive knowledge and guidance. We really appreciate her joining us to help further our understanding of this realm of worry and all the different ways it can manifest.

    Oct 5 2023

    This week we are doing something a little bit different. A wonderful colleague of ours requested, given everything going on in the world, a very short Q & A session that she could share with others who may be struggling. This is our attempt at that! A video portion can be found on our site as well. We hope it’s helpful.
