![#054: Mental Health Is Not Shameful - with Jordan from Listen, Lucy
On the cusp of the pandemic, Jordan - Founder of Listen Lucy, had just invested for her business to scale from speaking engagements into a speaking agency but 2020 decided otherwise and with events coming to a halt, her business collapsed.
Today we talk about how we both sank on the 2020 boat and what helped us bounce back. Both with very different surroundings and support systems.
*Content note: this episode discusses anxiety and suicide prevention, discretion is advised*
We go over:
• How to deal with a crisis.
• When your livelihood is taken away from you, how to cope so you can move on to your next chapter?
• In order to be the best parent for your kids, you sometimes need to prioritise yourself.
• To quote Jordan: “That’s the thing with mental illness. As your life changes, so does the illness, and you have to adapt.” If a coping mechanism doesnt work anymore, drop it and replace it with something else, don’t stunt your process.
• When you’re feeling depressed or anxious, how do we convey how we’re feeling without freaking people out or making them feel powerless?
• When mental health issues are part of who we are, we shouldn’t apologise for that.
• We all have mental health.
• When pulling away from your partner because you’re ashamed of showing them your mental health, that can be a breach of trust.
• Why spreading the message and exposing herself like this, is so important for Jordan.
• The 5 warning signs your friend may not be doing well and needs you to check in [WHAP which stands for Withdrawal - Hopelessness - Agitation - Poor self care &/or Personality change].
• The Upper limit problem.

![#098: Should You Believe Everything You Remember? Feat. Dr Kevin Felstead
Are memories reliable? Memories can be implanted or misremembered and be used against you or someone else. Not always knowingly but it happens.
Today with Kevin, Director of Communications for the British False Memory Society. We go over what they are, when they occur and we can protect ourselves from others [therapists, police and other officials] to implant memories in us.
We go over:
// Recovered memories and regression therapy.
// What got him in this line of work.
// Repressed memories vs the evolutionary advantage of (partly) forgetting pain (like childbirth & heartbreak).
// Why do some have no recollection of their childhood or teenage years?
// You never remember where you left your keys but remember what I told you May 10th 1997 at 10am….what is that about???
// Which parts of our memories can we trust?
// Is photographic memory real?
// Eyewitness testimonies leading to so many being wrongly identified and convicted.
// Misremembering vs forgetting
// Implanting memories.
// Doctoring photographs used to implant false memories.
// Implanting memories in police cross-interrogation.
// The impact of deepfake videos and how to protect ourselves.
// Is the legal system equipped for preventing false memories?
// Someone’s truth is not always the truth.
// Stimulating memory.
// The future of memory science.
// Finishing on a positive note on how healing affects our memories for the better.
