Disorderly

Disorderly will now upload every-other-week! This week, Bre and Bray discuss the necessity of being confrontational in multiple facets of your life, while continuing the discussion on people-pleasing-problems. 

After a teensy tiny break from the podcast, Bre and Brayden discuss how harmful people-pleasing actually is for not only you, but the people you are trying to please. Brayden dives into his "approval addiction."

Bre opens up about her story of sexual assault and speaks into the power of honesty and narrative. Bre and Allyson discuss women empowerment and the female experience. 

This week, Bre and Brayden interview Kenny, Bre's childhood crush and professional chef (or as he puts it, a "steward of food"). He discusses his involvement with homeless outreach, his story of sobriety, as well as the current state of mental health awareness in the food industry. 

Brayden and Bre discuss progress and the healing process, and touch on the importance of language throughout. They also touch on the topic of holding conversations between individuals with differing opinions. 

Bre and Brayden discuss fear itself and its ties to anxiety, childhood trauma, as well as the juvenile and adult incarceration systems.  

Bre and Brayden (but mostly Bre) talk about about codependency, and break down what it actually means to have codependent behavior patterns. 

Bre and Brayden talk about what they do individually for self care, and dive deep into a discussion about what it means to them on less straightforward levels. They also read submissions from friends and listeners about unique things they do for self care! 

Part 2 of Disorderly's interview with Megan, music therapist in training! In this episode, the trio does more to define Music Therapy and how it helps people in different ways, and Bre and Megan compare their experiences with EMDR. 

For the season 1 finale of Disorderly, Breanna and Brayden interview Jeremiah, who has recently aged out of the foster care system. Jeremiah talks about his experience with the system and delivers his unique story and perspective on what it's like to have been through and exited foster care. 

Breanna and Brayden discuss the anxiety brain and its tendency to "catastrophize" situations that might in actuality be mostly harmless. Also, the team talks about altruism, and how having a more worldly view can help to positively minimize the apparent severity of a particular worry.  

Brayden talks about a study recently done by Oregon State University about stress and its cognitive effect on older adults. Breanna discusses the Holiday Season and issues surrounding it, and also recounts a recent panic attack and discusses her methods for getting out of it.

While Brayden is away in Nashville, Disorderly records their first remote podcast ever! Breanna and Brayden talk about some recent experiences related to their mental health, discuss a new treatment Breanna is beginning for herself, and touch on reframing situations so that one might learn from them. 

This week, Breanna and Brayden talk about being grateful the past, while also appreciating the present. They address a question on self-harm, and discuss how perfectionism can be a strong source of anxiety. 

This week, Breanna returns from a small hiatus to share her feelings about the recent passing of her uncle. In the process, Brayden and Bre discuss the grieving stages, being thankful for both people and things, as well as the uninhibited expression of love. 

This week, Allyson is back to guest host while Breanna is away. They discuss situations where one lacks control, and how accepting a lack of control can be powerful in specific situations. The team answers their first email question, and discusses how you can be of help to someone who is suffering from a mental illness.
