Episode 106: You Asked, We Answered - SLPs and Mental Health During the Pandemic

In this episode, the cohosts answer pandemic related questions including:

What are your stress triggers right now?

  • Are you more patient or impatient during the pandemic?

  • What are some small ways you’ve adjusted to the pandemic (like more frequent self care) and some bigger ways (changing jobs, career) that you’ve made to adjust to the pandemic?

The cohosts also share a self care challenge to seek out deep rest and mention the book Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily and Amelia Nagoski.

They also share some fall recommendations. Books - The Practical Magic Series by Alice Monroe (she has a recent fourth book so Sarah mentions it’s a trilogy but it isn’t any longer due to the added book) and Ghosts and More Ghosts by Robert Arthur. Shows - The Great British Baking Show, Hometown Cha Cha Cha, Gilmore Girls.
