Episode 55: Social Media Safety with Ed Peisner and Marc Berkman
Friday Apr 02, 2021
Friday Apr 02, 2021
There's a dark side to social media. One that needs to be part of conversations asking society, leaders, families, and individuals:
How do we ensure safety of social media?
How do we protect children from social media dangers?
What can leaders, communities, families, and individuals do to help?
One group, the Organization for Social Media Safety, is taking action. Founded by Ed Peisner and led by CEO Marc Berkman, the Organization for Social Media Safety is a powerhouse paving the way from working with legislation, establishing Jordan's Law, and providing services to help parents, schools, and individuals to make social safe for everyone through a comprehensive approach that includes education, advocacy, and technology development.
The why. Their why. The Organization for Social Media Safety began as a result when in 2016, Ed's son, a then 14-year-old, Jordan Peisner, was viciously assaulted by another teen he did not know while standing outside a restaurant with his friends. Instead of getting help, witnesses and friends of the perpetrator stood and filmed the assault on their phones and then quickly uploaded their videos to social media leaving Jordan laying helpless on the ground with the horrifying footage circulating social media viewed by hundreds of thousands.
While Jordan slowly recovered from the severe and ultimately lifelong, injuries, Ed declared to make sure that no other child or family would endure a similar horrific experience. Ed created the Organization for Social Media Safety.

The world’s been around for over 13.7 billion years and a question people ask is: Where do I fit in? It didn’t create me for no reason.

Dr. Palmgren’s practice with human and organization development spans more than 40 years where he’s helped bring about a greater reality, meaning, and awareness of self and organizational purpose.

Integrative care. Complementary. Alternative. What are all these terms? What do they all mean? Why are they different (if at all) and how can integrative care help with mental health, healing, and growing from PTSD and other mental health challenges?
In Episode 50 of the PTSD and Beyond Podcast, Mark and I take a dive into exploring integrative care and discuss what it is, how do respected groups such as the NIH's National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health and the Mayo Clinic view integrative care, and give examples of where's it practiced in innovative care facilities such as Allina Health's Penny George Institute for Health and Healing.

Episode 48: Remember Who You Are - Mindfulness Exercise
Tuesday Mar 16, 2021
Tuesday Mar 16, 2021
In stressful times, we forget who we are. Outside events, situations, things...all of those things are distractions to us remembering who we are.
People are struggling recalling and remembering who they are..and it got me thinking about doing a mindfulness exercise to help to remember...to "remember who I am" and from it to "know who I am."
I did this exercise and an immediate reaction was empowerment. I felt a shift, I felt a difference. I felt empowered!
How long? Less than 10 minutes.
I hope you enjoy this exercise and find it helpful.
