The first guest of season 3, is my friend and social worker Melissa Trombetta Sollee, MSW. In this episode, we talk about cops and their training in behavioral health awareness and all the ends, outs, and ups and downs of that in the context we are living in in the United States at this moment. We discuss the racist system that devours humans and is set up to fail ALL it's people especially those that are more at risk by the lack of safety nets. We don't pretend to have the answers and are not shying away from the hard questions either.
Fear not we also tap into spiritual practices- what is working and what isn't working during the pandemic for Melissa a busy mom of 2. How difficult it can be to find space and time to practice and experiment with what feels good. Melissa is a good sport by being willing to sit in the spiritual direction seat a bit with me as we discuss what might work for her in the phase of life she is living with very little free time and children that need her.
Melissa wanted to plug Tobe Nwigwe because his music is giving her life right now https://www.tobenwigwe.com/
