episode Why Validation Matters artwork

Why Validation Matters

Validation is the act of recognizing, acknowledging, and accepting another person’s thoughts, feelings, or experiences as real and understandable—without judgment, dismissal, or the need to fix them. Why does it matter? When you have Borderline Personality Disorder you've likely experienced a profound amount of invalidation. In this episode we go into detail about why it matters to be validated by others and yourself.  Send us a text message to be anonymously read and responded to!

episode Borderlines Building Community artwork

Borderlines Building Community

What is community? A community is a group of people who are connected by shared characteristics—such as location, interests, values, identity, or experiences—and who interact with one another, often providing mutual support, belonging, and a sense of connection or responsibility to the group. There's nothing more important, especially in the world right now, than having safe people who have your back and being safe people who have other people's backs. In this episode we talk what is community, how to build it, what gets in the way, and what community means to YOU!  Send us a text message to be anonymously read and responded to!

episode Eldest Daughter Syndrome Feat. Kayleigh artwork

Eldest Daughter Syndrome Feat. Kayleigh

What is eldest daughter syndrome? While it's not a clinical term it can be defined as an informal, non-clinical term used to describe a common pattern of emotional and behavioral experiences often reported by oldest daughters in families. It is not a medical or DSM diagnosis, but a social and psychological concept. It typically refers to the experience of taking on excessive responsibility, caregiving, or emotional labor at a young age, sometimes at the expense of one’s own needs. Kayleigh is here to talk about her experience having 6 siblings and often being the caretaker to the oldest three that she grew up with.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
