Description

When Anthony Bourdain and Kate Spade’s suicides made headlines, we got to wondering …

Given the extreme violence of our political climate, our mental health is of tremendous importance …

But - what does it mean to be mentally, emotionally healthy? Why, in fact, are we made to think our mental, emotional, and physical health are separate?  Whose idea was that? What are the cultural roots of "suicide"?  And how is suicide understood differently across cultures?

On tonight’s show:

We are joined by three guests, all healing practitioners and mental health providers -- Shauna Janz, Pinar Atesh Sinopoulos-Lloyd, and Bre Williams.

They join us to analyze our national conversation about suicide.

Together we’ll interrogate the cultural norms that frame our understanding of health and sickness.

All that and more tonight on Full Circle.
