Today’s guest episode provides an incredible conversation with Dr. Jody Carrington - a clinical psychologist and national best selling author of the book “Kids These Days” - about what it takes to feel safe, secure, stable, and how we can walk each other home during times of emotional dysregulation and mental health crises.
We talk about the importance of being able to recognize the difference between attention seeking and connection seeking, how food plays a role in emotional regulation and how this can be challenging to navigate in the throws of diet culture, how to come home to our bodies and all about what it means to “Feel Seen”.
If you have not yet read “Kids These Days” and “Feeling Seen”, I would highly recommend! You will absolutely want to get your hands on them after this conversation.
