Our series with Dr. Jasmine Dean continues. Dr. Dean and I continue to raise awareness in regards to PTSD, Mental Health and the depth of conversation that is needed to promote personal growth.

On this episode we talk about Subjective Units Of Distress and how this can be an important way to measure where your stress is at daily. Tracking our stress is actually incredibly important as it allows us to develop a plan to decrease our overall levels and promote better health.

We also discuss the impact that trauma and medication have on our sex life! Why this happens and how the body can struggle at times to connect during intimate moments. First Responders are at a higher risk of having a negatively impacted sex life as a result of experienced trauma.

In addition we talk about how a Us VS Them theme can arise in first responder work and how that contributes to driving us away from connection with others.

Dr. Dean does an excellent job in painting a picture about the reality of how to determine when you know you've found a good therapist.

Join us as the conversation continues!
