Bold Beautiful Borderline

Today you meet Brittni who will speak with us about her beautiful and difficult experience navigating family adversity and trauma as well as seeking DBT and how difficult that is in the Midwest. She is the perfect example of radical acceptance - perfect meaning there is not such thing as perfect. Ending up at radical acceptance is in fact PERFECT. We are honored to chat with Brittni about this and plan to do so one more time next week! Support the showYou can find Laurie and Sara on Instagram to follow their day to day lives even further @laurieanned and @saraswellnessway.

Listen - in this episode I go deep and it is painful. This episode involves a lot of dysregulation with my partner that you will see me experience live but you also see us begin to repair. I talk about my fear I'm a bad therapist, my fear I'll never be successful, and how rapidly one fear turns into the belief that my entire life is over. Buckle up, it's a wild ride. Support the showYou can find Laurie and Sara on Instagram to follow their day to day lives even further @laurieanned and @saraswellnessway.

Danielle is a regular Super Feeler who suddenly disappeared for 9 months. We were worried about her safety, having no success at reaching out. Until 9 months later when Laurie got a DM on instagram saying "if you ever want to record an episode about what it's like to have BPD in jail let me know". And so this episode was obviously recorded asap. In this episode Danielle bravely shares her story of what it was like to go through the criminal justice system with borderline personality disorder. She shares about the lack of medical autonomy and privacy she faced and how she started running mini DBT classes in jail to support others like her. (aka Super Feelers: Incarcerated Edition). This episode has a number of triggers including: medical harm, systemic discrimination, overdose, and solitary confinement.Also please excuse the issues with audio quality - Laurie was on vacation and turns out her internet was really bad...  *** quick fact checking note: around the 19 minute mark Danielle says she's talking about the 14th amendment but it's actually the 13th amendment.

Dr. Skye Fitzpatrick is a BPD researcher and the TULiP Lab Director at York University. Her current research interests focus on the examination of emotion processes in the treatment of borderline personality disorder (BPD) and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and identifying ways to streamline and refine concurrent treatments for these challenges. In this episode Skye and Laurie discuss the importance of research from an academic, clinical and lived experience perspective.

Our mental healthcare needs to be personalized to us and our specific biology. Today, Sara and Dr. Evelyn Higgins talk about the work she's doing to make that happen. Wired For Addiction provides an individually tested biomarker 31-page report that hopes to negate the often ineffective and dangerous “try-it-out” phase of medications by isolating the individual’s specific genes and the associated interaction with the drugs and drug types listed in the report.  In matters of health, life, and death, empirical evidence should not be the standard of care. These are their beliefs as a company. Sara and Evelyn talk what, why, and how on individual genetic mental healthcare.
