Episode 7: Aversion Control (8/7/2018)

The gang is back after a long hiatus with a topic that weaves through a lot of other topics: avoidance. We examine avoidance as a control strategy and why we pursue control strategies to begin with. We share our own histories and strategies for avoidance, think about when avoidance is adaptive, and point out that sometimes, parents really just don't understand.

Episode 6: The Fuse Box (3/27/2018)

This week the gang discusses the complex topics of cognitive fusion and defusion. We discuss being stuck in our heads and how to wriggle free to give ourselves some space. And with such a big topic, we'd be crazy not to break it down with exercises and personal examples. Crazy. Crazy. Crazy. Crazy. Crazy. Crazy...

Episode 5: Get Nervous (2/22/2018)

Today, the gang talks anxiety: how we feel it, where it comes from, and what we do to live with it. This is a personal subject for all of us, and we dive into our own experiences and expertise to explore the ways anxiety sustains itself and boxes us in.

Episode 4: The Masculine Mystique (2/6/2018)

Join the gang as they harken back to the days when men were men and manhood was socially reproduced to enforce hegemonic systems of power. They dive into their own experiences with masculinity, how it shapes and traps us all, and the challenges that we all face as we love men while navigating the patriarchy.
