Teri Anderson was discussing the evolving meanings of certain words and expressions, notably emphasizing the overuse and potentially diminishing impact of terms like "trigger" and "safe spaces." Teri also introduced the concept of "glimmers," contrasting them with triggers as moments that bring joy, peace, or gratitude. This idea seems to be about focusing on positive moments or memories in one's life, offering a counterbalance to negative or triggering experiences.
She shared personal stories about triggers, reliving traumatic events, and the significance of addressing triggering language thoughtfully, especially concerning those actually dealing with trauma versus those just experiencing discomfort.
Additionally, Teri encouraged self-love and kindness and mentioned plans for future discussions on handling memories and their impact.

What IS the difference between true self care and numbing or running? I speak of the difference for me, in my life, as I am beginning the journey of true self care and self development. 
Having never being celebrated for me, as a child or as an adult, I've decided to celebrate myself and learn the ins and outs of true self care. 
I'll be in a country far away doing who knows what when this airs. Self care is learned, it's nurtured, it's intentional. It's not escapism, in my opinion, it's celebrating yourself during the times you need it most and in the times of maintenance. It's being self aware, and, I feel, is the beginning of true self love.

It's not broken. It's the system we built." - Jeff Woodward.
Join me in welcoming my first guest on this podcast, Jeff Woodward. Jeff is the program manager and Outreach & Navigation Program Manager at  Mental Health & Addiction Association of Oregon. 
Jeff Woodward was very candid with me about what led him from the corporate world to the world of homelessness, the suicide of his wife in 2009.
Our discussion takes us through the emotional state people can find themselves in after a tragedy, to life on the streets, our perceived perception of mismanagement in Oregon that has led to the homeless crisis, the current state of Portland, Oregon.
Jeff also speaks of Apple in downtown Portland hiring a peer specialist to help with the homeless situation near the Downtown Portland Apple Store.
We continue on speaking of our sons' mental illnesses, Wapato, now known as Bybee Lakes, non profits in Oregon, greed, dirty money, passions, and then throw in a bit about Harley Davidsons and we have an episode that is gripping, tragic, hopeful and is filled with twists and turns.
I offer my thoughts on TPI, also known as Transition Projects that, I feel, gave me false hope concerning my son that led up to his untimely death.
