013 Stephanie Kutzen: Addiction, Education, Communication and the Social Sciences

  1. 013 Stephanie Kutzen: Addiction, Education, Communication and the Social Sciences Gail Zelitzky and Catherine Marienau 30:33

 

In this episode, Gail, Catherine, and Stephanie discuss:

  • Life’s unplanned adventures and why resilience is so important

  • The social and emotional effects of addiction on both individuals and families

  • How compassion fatigue highlights the need for women to learn self-care

Stephanie shares with us her own life experiences and why she is as enthusiastic about life today as when she first embraced social services at the age of 13.


Take-Aways:

  • Women need self-care and should take pride in doing so

  • The importance of moving – physically, emotionally and mentally – as we age and learning through our own life cycles

  • Ambivalence is a tremendous life-challenge requiring us to consider where to go from here

 

“Live by choice and not by chance. Have a center that is worth reaching for.”  – Stephanie Kutzen, PhD

Their stories and the stories of the over 200 women they have interviewed celebrate women’s enduring courage, compassion and contribution. Our compelling stories shatter the myth that we become irrelevant as we age.
