Curious about how poetry can illuminate the complexities of life? 'The Therapeutic Poet' offers a unique blend of verse and dialogue, hosted by addiction psychologist and poet Jacky Power. Each week, Jacky introduces a therapeutic theme with one of her own poems, setting the stage for deep, meaningful conversations with her guests. From trauma healing to the nuances of self-acceptance, this podcast dives into the trickiness of being human with empathy and insight.
What makes 'The Therapeutic Poet' stand out is its storytelling approach. Jacky engages with a diverse range of guests—neuroscientists, motivational coaches, and everyday people—offering a wide array of perspectives on mental health and personal growth. Whether discussing the transformative power of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) or exploring sustainable fashion as a form of self-expression, each episode is a journey into understanding and healing.
One episode might take you through the empowering potential of EFT for disenfranchised communities, while another might explore the impact of creative styling on self-perception and the environment. Jacky's conversations often touch on heavy topics like overcoming intergenerational trauma or coping with hearing loss, but always with a message of hope and resilience. 'Learning to Love Our Humanity,' featuring Dr.
Brad Reedy, delves into accepting our flaws, while 'The Neuroscience Behind Vision Boards' with Lara Doherty explores how visual tools can boost self-awareness. These episodes, among others, provide listeners with both comfort in shared experiences and inspiration for personal growth. Whether you're navigating your own challenges or seeking to understand the struggles of others, 'The Therapeutic Poet' offers a safe space for exploration and healing. It's an enlightening listen that will challenge your thinking and uplift your spirit.
