Description

If the “bipolar weather” makes you want to “yeet yourself into the abyss,” this conversation about stigmatizing health language is for you. In this episode of Table Talk, Skye, Ashley, and Melissa examine their relationships with stigmatizing language — questioning the thin line between coping through humor and coming off as insensitive toward others’ lived experiences. They also share their advice for approaching potentially harmful language, especially as it becomes more common in our vernacular. The bottom line? Say what you mean, and give grace to others.
