    Angles in the Outfield: A Discussion on Believing in Yourself and Having Support
    2024/11/07

Hey everyone! Today, it’s a solo podcast with just me, Dr. Naz, and Spencer 🎙️. We’re diving into the Disney classic Angels in the Outfield, a film that’s not only heartwarming but also packed with lessons on relationships, trauma, and the importance of chosen family. We explore the themes of believing in yourself and how the belief of others can help spark that inner belief. It’s about more than just baseball—it’s about how team chemistry, whether in sports or the workplace, can be healing. The support systems we build—our friends, coworkers, and loved ones—are the safety nets that keep us going through the highs and lows of life. There are two key scenes we’ll dive into. One highlights the power of rituals and routines, especially for those of us who need them to self-regulate, much like the pitcher who goes through a specific process to throw the perfect pitch. Another scene features a shy boy who literally runs home when told to, giving us a heartwarming (and humorous) reminder of how the neurodivergent experience often includes taking things literally. We also talk about trauma, PTSD, and triggers. There’s a powerful moment when a young boy can’t get into a car due to past trauma, reflecting the way difficult experiences can make seemingly simple tasks feel overwhelming. This scene resonates deeply with those who’ve faced traumatic events and shows how selective mutism and the fear of connection can manifest in the wake of abuse or neglect. But it’s not all heavy—there’s joy in seeing the team come together, improving with a little help from the angels until they eventually succeed on their own. This parallels the journey in therapy: starting with guidance and support, but eventually growing strong enough to fly solo. It’s a beautiful metaphor for healing and personal growth, something Spencer and I deeply resonate with. The final scenes show the coach promising to adopt the boys, offering them the stability and love they’ve never known. It’s a touching moment that illustrates how caregiving can be healing for both sides. As caregivers, whether as therapists, coaches, or friends, we give out healing—but we also receive it in return. We wrap up with the championship win, a symbol of victory not just for the team but for everyone who’s ever overcome their personal challenges. We hope you enjoy the mix of fun, emotion, and deep reflection in today’s podcast. Take care of yourselves, and remember—healing is a two-way street 💛. 0:00 Attention 0:54 Sponsorship 1:57 Intro 6:37 Scenes 25:54 Discussion We'd love to hear your ideas for future episodes and connect with you on social media.

  • Autism Goes To College: A Discussion and Interview about Neurodivergence [Ft. Erik Linthorst]

    Autism Goes To College: A Discussion and Interview about Neurodivergence [Ft. Erik Linthorst]
    2024/10/31
    Let our sponsor, BetterHelp, connect you to a therapist who can support you - all from the comfort of your home. Visit https://betterhelp.com/dsp and enjoy a special discount on your first month. In today’s episode, we’re thrilled to interview Erik Linthorst, the filmmaker behind Autism Goes to College! 🎥 Erik shares what inspired him to create this documentary, which highlights the experiences of autistic students navigating the ups and downs of college life. We dive into their stories—triumphs, challenges, and barriers. One key topic is self-disclosure: should autistic students tell others about their diagnosis? Erik explains the risks and benefits. For instance, one diligent student who always asked questions was seen as "weird" by classmates. This sparks a discussion on societal norms in education and why acceptance is crucial. We also explore deregulation—emotional responses due to stress or sensory overload—and how it’s often misunderstood, leading to harmful consequences like police involvement. 💥 Erik emphasizes the need for better educator training to support neurodivergent students, particularly for Black and Brown individuals, who are disproportionately affected by these situations. A powerful scene from the film shows a student being berated by a professor before an exam, leading to failure. 💔 This is a common experience for neurodivergent students, and we discuss how professors, many without teaching training, often fail to provide necessary accommodations and empathy. We also talk about how medication can be life-changing for neurodivergent students, managing anxiety, ADHD, and sensory overload. 💊 Plus, small accommodations like online courses, recorded lectures, or extended deadlines can make education more accessible. Many students aren’t aware of available resources like extended test times, note-taking, or access to mental health counselors. 📝💻 Erik and Dr. Naz discuss how these services could help students succeed if made more accessible, and how support groups for neurodivergent students can be invaluable. Despite challenges, Erik's documentary has been a huge success, spreading awareness through educational libraries nationwide. 🎓 We also dive into Erik’s personal connection to this story, his own neurodivergent experiences, and the passion driving his work. This episode highlights the need for systemic changes to make higher education more inclusive—not just for neurodivergent students but for all.

  • Spirited: A Discussion on Toxic Caregivers and Professionals [Ft. Jaye Lin]

    Spirited: A Discussion on Toxic Caregivers and Professionals [Ft. Jaye Lin]
    2024/10/24
    Let our sponsor, BetterHelp, connect you to a therapist who can support you - all from the comfort of your home. Visit https://betterhelp.com/dsp and enjoy a special discount on your first month. In today’s podcast, we’re joined by ADHD coach and advocate, Jaye Lin, who brings a fresh perspective as we dive into the Apple TV movie Spirited starring Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds. 🎬 The focus shifts to caregivers in the mental health and medical fields, and the struggles they face in managing their own well-being while helping others. We discuss the concept of being "unredeemable"—how many of us avoid our own issues, because it's easier to fix others than to work on ourselves. 🛠️ Jaye and Dr. Naz don’t hold back, shedding light on how some therapists and coaches may not have done the necessary inner work, leading to toxic behaviors, even as they guide others. This episode explores the fine line between helping and harm, urging professionals to “walk the walk” rather than just talk. We also talk about how people, especially those who feel flawed, can redeem themselves, despite what society tells them. 🌱 Through Ferrell’s song in Spirited, we see a metaphor for actively engaging in life and facing your own demons rather than running from them. Finally, we delve into friendship, connection, and sacrifice. 💔 Making friends, especially for those who are ADHD or autistic, can feel impossible, but it’s something that can bring joy and meaning. Jaye shares stories of sacrifice and highlights how true friends show up for each other. Tune in for a heartfelt and hilarious episode that digs deep into the human experience. 💬 And don’t forget to check out Jaye’s coaching services if you need ADHD support!
