In this episode of Question It., with its *Trigger Warning*, we use Google’s Notebook LM to review how a friend’s suicide impacted me and why Emotional Health—not Mental Health—could be the critical link society is missing. I reflect on the deeper emotional struggles that often go unnoticed and how our ability to give and receive love, connection, and belonging plays a crucial role in our well-being. By questioning conventional narratives around mental health, we explore how shifting the focus to Emotional Health could lead to real, lasting change. Key Takeaway: Emotional Health—th…

In this episode of Question It., with its *Trigger Warning*, we are once again discussing suicide and the deep emotional pain that often drives people to it. I share a personal story about a childhood friend who died by suicide and explore the crucial distinction between mental health and emotional health. By understanding how unmet emotional needs shape our behaviors, we can shift our approach to well-being and connection. Join me in rethinking how we support ourselves and others in times of distress.   Key Takeaway: Understanding that emotional pain, not a broken brain, often drives destru…

In this episode of Question It., we’re using Google’s Notebook LM to review and summarize an article I wrote about elite athletes “cracking.” We discuss how their struggles are often misinterpreted as mental health problems or weaknesses, when in reality, they are symptoms of poor emotional health and unresolved emotional pain. It's not a breakdown or a sign of mental weakness, but rather a reflection of unmet emotional needs. Tune in to explore how reframing this understanding can provide better support for those who are perceived as having it all together. Key Takeaway: The key take…

In this episode of Question It., with its *Trigger Warning*, I explore how our drive for athletic success is often tied to a form of conditional love—seeking validation and worthiness through achievement. From elite athletes to kids in Little League, I examine how we use sports as a way to meet emotional health needs, striving to feel seen, accepted, and valued. But what if all we truly want is to be loved unconditionally, for who we are beyond our accomplishments? Join me as I question the cultural narratives around sports and consider a healthier path to fulfilling our deeper emotional nee…
