  • Treat the person... not the illness.

    You can only ever hit the target you are aiming at. Society’s mental health “target” has been mental illness. Unfortunately that target is getting bigger and bigger as more people experience mental illness.

    We believe it is time to change the target. It is time we humanize mental health. It is time we bring new understanding that a disease focus will only bring more disease.

    It is time to focus our target on wellness.

  • Counter Melodies
    2024/10/08

    In this episode Trent and Jeremy are joined by author, professor and accomplished musician Dr Earnestine Whitman. She recently published the Book “Counter Melodies A Memoir in Sonata Form” that details her story of trauma recovery:

    Jealous of her brilliant older sister, Ernestine longs for her father’s approval as a little girl but is never good enough. When she discovers a talent for the flute, she meets a charismatic teacher who gives her the encouragement she craves and becomes her surrogate father. After winning several competitions, she dreams of being a professional musician, but her stern father ridicules the idea and forces her to attend Emory University as a math major like her sister.

    Ernestine doesn’t give up on her musical dreams, however, and halfway through college she wins the second flute chair in the Atlanta Symphony. There, she sits beside her former teacher, the principal flute. At first, she loves working with him, but after one successful season he turns on her and does everything in his power to get her fired. Devastated by her idol’s merciless harassment, she’s driven into a spiral of suicidal depression. As she tries to recover, her vulnerability is exploited, again and again, by the very men she turns to for help.

    A harrowing account of one woman’s battle with twentieth-century misogyny, Countermelodies follows Ernestine as, through the darkness, she clings to her love for the flute and her unshakable dream of making it in the cutthroat world of classical music.
