What does technology amplify in your life, and what does it amputate? In her book, 24/6: The Power of Unplugging One Day a Week, Tiffany Shlain shares how her family unplugged one day a week and how you can achieve digital wellness. Terms like “digital detox” and “internet addiction,” were developed to identify the problem a device can play. In addition, Tiffany explains what her family calls a “technology Shabbat.” So, where do you want to place your time and attention?

IN THIS EPISODE: 
[04:05] Tiffany shares a quote from Marshall McLuhan, a media theorist. “Does technology amplify and what does it amputate?” and she discusses the impact of the tech world in our lives
[05:15] Taking a technology Shabbat. Tiffany explains what Shabbat is and how it applies to screen time
[09:26] The history of spending time without technology and a plan to achieve digital wellness in today’s world
[18:26] Your screen can rob you of creativity and restful “me” time. Structure, organization and rituals are positives choices
[22:48] Your role as a  parent is to set device boundaries
[26:40] Screen addiction can cause a dopamine rush. Often people use their devices to escape. Internet addiction is real
[37:08] Inappropriate content is available via the screen, and the average age of children viewing is nine
[40:28] Disengaging from a screen creates a “me” network; however, the flip side is allowing validation of what you post frame who you are

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
The default mode network frees your mind to think creatively and recall events of the day or week without the “noise” of a device
Unfortunately, some parents use the internet as a babysitter, training their child to get validation from posts, etc., and the child doesn’t learn how to feel their disappointment, which we all need to be able to do.
Screen addiction is so prevalent that treatment centers focus on that particular addiction.

“The concept of one day a week is profound. Many people have read it from different backgrounds, and it’s like yoga and meditation. These ancient ideas were brought to the west and popularized, and people now understand yoga and medication make your life better.” -  Tiffany Shlain

“The best thing I’ve ever done as a parent is ‘technology Shabbat’ because the boundary is clear. The idea of Shabbat is a temple in time; we are talking about time and attention. For one day, your home is sacred.  The outside world can’t get in.” - Tiffany Shlain

The lifelong path of recovery from addiction is a shared theme in the lives of actress Jamie Lee Curtis and host Amanda de Cadenet. The duo shares their sobriety stories and spiritual journeys from a place of sisterhood, mutual trust, and empathy. Join us today on this episode of The Conversation, where Jamie Lee Curtis truthfully shares her journey through addiction to the light of sobriety. Jamie Lee discusses the three events that were her wake-up call to the destructive nature of her addiction to Vicodin.

IN THIS EPISODE:
[00:30] Jamie Lee Curtis and Amanda discuss their friendship and sisterhood
[03:14] Jamie Lee shares how she became comfortable talking about recovery from addiction
[07:26] How the article, Vicodin, My Vicodin, by Tom Chiarella, opened her eyes to the knowledge that she wasn’t in this struggle alone
[09:47] Jamie Lee discusses her family history of addiction and alcoholism 
[15:49] Jamie Lee discloses how she obtained her drugs 
[20:28] Three wake-up calls she experienced to climb out of her addictive lifestyle
[25:47] The understanding of who the problem was, the feeling of how the community felt, and the personal tenants she ascribes to have kept Jamie Lee sober
[32:19] How trauma can lead a person to a life of addiction
[38:37] Jamie Lee shares her career choices and her dreams and goals for future projects

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Talking about your substance abuse with others who share your same experiences, feelings, and struggles opens the door to healing and reveals the path to recovery from addiction.
We learn through the addictions we want to hide; if you talk about it, you can’t control it. So, instead, we hide it and become who we think people want us to be.
Addiction can happen to anyone, and generational addiction is challenging to escape.

QUOTE:

“We have a phrase in recovery, ‘When I’m looking in the mirror, the deep, dark, truthful mirror, I’m looking at the problem.’ It’s not my mother, father, husband, sister, or friend.  It’s me. That changed my life.”  - Jamie Lee Curtis

As Sick As Your Secrets: Recovery From Addiction with Jamie Lee Curtis

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/94ae647a-9120-43db-9e97-b020014a8fa6/transcript

Today, Sarah Jones and Amanda discuss the sexualization and disempowerment of women. Sarah, writer, actor and filmmaker, brings to light aspects of the sex industry through her film Sell/Buy/Date.  We delve into topics that should not be taboo and issues that require a conversation that for all too long have been ignored, denied or sadly even justified, like why women should not be shamed and stigmatized for expressing their sexuality.

IN THIS EPISODE: 
[01:27] Sarah shares her thoughts on how the oldest profession in the world needed an authentic voice
[04:56] Girls are at risk from age 12. The unfair treatment between the sexes because of draconian laws
[08:19] Sarah describes the changes she would like to see and the removal of the stigma from women choosing this work
[15:27] Sarah reveals her thoughts about the perception of women and how a male-dominated industry like Hollywood categorizes women. What are the ramifications if the film, Sell/Buy/Date, isn't a blockbuster
[20:17] Boys are also wounded and can account for growing into men who dominate
[24:37] Sarah expresses ways she wants her film to impact the public 
[27:10] Do these problems stem from economic realities in western or even global culture
[29:20] Sarah explained the cancel culture she experienced when announcing the film

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Women are vilified and jailed for prostitution, while the Johns get a slap on the wrist and are on their merry way.
Sex trafficking is as much about money as it is about the degradation of women and girls. 
Hollywood is a male-dominated industry that still views women as a commodity.

QUOTES:

“I’m not here to bash anybody. I’m here to remind straight white men that they are not in danger.  You are not an endangered species; you still run all the studios. I know there are a couple of figureheads, but guess what? The only black women, brown women, and non-binary folks who get through still have to be vetted by Hollywood's larger white patriarchal establishment.” - Sarah Jones 

“We need to have a larger conversation about the sex industry that pulls up to a drone-level view and says, ‘Wait a minute, capitalism, racism, colonialism, all of this history is what explains why there is a disproportionate number of black and brown girls and native women in the sex trade today.”  - Sarah Jones

Are the tides turning on psychedelics? What once was considered a dangerous experiment might now be the answer to PTSD, depression, anxiety and other mental health problems. Lucy Walker, the documentary filmmaker of How to Change Your Mind, has studied the effects of various psychedelics and is convinced of the favorable treatment they provide. It may seem counterintuitive, but Lucy cites examples of how these drugs can lead to long-term sobriety. Tune in to hear about the studies and the existing roadblocks. 



IN THIS EPISODE: 
[03:00] Lucy describes why she produced the documentary, her experience with drugs and how she obtained the rights to Michael Pollan’s book
[10:12] How the illness of Lucy’s sister spurred Lucy to delve deeper into research as she produced her film. Amanda and Lucy discuss the need for more discussion about death and dying
[17:13] Lucy discusses her cancer and the misdiagnosis and how her recovery reframed her thinking about life
[24:30] Lucy explains what components are necessary for her to choose a film project
[26:55] A drug called ibogaine is showing promise with opiate addiction, and yet it is still illegal
[30:18] The story of a friend who struggled with depression and trauma and fatally went on to use heroin and cocaine and died
[34:54] The status of FDA approval and the decriminalization movement. The use of MDMA for PTSD patients and how it will be available in psychotherapist's offices 



KEY TAKEAWAYS:
There are drugs used for cancer treatments and depression; hence the buzz phrase “nature’s antidepressant” was born. 
Clinical trials suggest that psilocybin can provide remission from depression and anxiety.
Ibogaine has anti-addictive properties suggesting promise in treating alcohol use disorders.

QUOTES: 

“I was given a second life. I had twelve days of suffering, thinking that it was the end of my life, and somebody gave me a new life. So I had renewed determination to use the time I had to be of benefit. “ - Lucy Walker



“The fact is that psychedelics now are shown incredible promise for alcohol use disorder and all kinds of addictions, including smoking. Ibogaine has this specific property for opiate withdrawal, but lots of these other compounds, including psilocybin, are tools showing incredible promise. Couldn't we just use them in our world? It's so counterintuitive that something that's got this scary reputation, like psychedelics, could actually be helpful for anxiety and that a drug that we think of as an illegal, bad drug could actually be really helpful to combat, for example, drug addictions and drug use disorders.” - Lucy Walker

[18:32] Clearing emotional debris and dealing with unresolved trauma are the first steps to recognizing your path
 [22:01] How much of the material we carry emanates from our ancestry and generational trauma? You never reach a plateau; you continue to work it out
[26:41] Jeff reveals where his next body of work will be focused and discusses the abuse of power and who benefits 

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
When people are overwhelmed with the economic realm they must live in to survive, they don’t take time to analyze the path they have taken.
Before dealing with trauma, you must be willing to pull those skeletons out of the closet.
Some of the trauma we carry is generational.  We must deal with that as well.

“The relationships around me are so important. Not only do they affect my mental state, but they also affect time spent and productivity, how I live my life, and how I dream. Those are the relationships we need to talk about.” - Sabrina Elba

“People used to throw out comments when we first got together. ‘Why does she have something to say? She’s just a wife or a girlfriend.’ My mom told me, ‘Don’t let anyone make you think that your voice isn’t important because it’s the strongest thing that we have.’ She’s right. I’m always going to speak for what I believe in and for what I stand for.”  - Sabrina Elba

Human Connection Through Coupledom With Sabrina Elba

“No one has the power to fix anyone but themselves,” is one of many impactful pieces of wisdom shared by actress and author Julianna Margulies in this episode. Host Amanda and Julianna cover a wide range of topics: the joy of a second chance at love, measuring how much hovering over our teen children helps, raising children, and how eager we are to watch a tv series that explores how women over 50 navigate this chapter of life. Don’t miss this episode of The Conversation!



IN THIS EPISODE: 
[01:00] Julianna explains why her childhood nickname formed who she was as an adult and why she named her book after Sunshine Girl
[05:02] A people pleaser as a child and a problematic relationship from age 25 to 35 was the spark that started Julianna’s journey to a woman who knew what she wanted
[12:39] Julianna discusses the way she was raised, raising her child and the importance of saying your sorry 
[16:20] Julianna shares the guilt she felt while working on the Good Wife and why mothering too close can handicap your child
[25:32] Meeting the right guy and how that changes you and your life expectations. What is essential and what is not
[33:17] Julianna talks about the concept of her next project





KEY TAKEAWAYS:
When you say sorry to your child, it teaches them that you aren’t perfect. Saying I’m sorry will be easier for them because they have experienced it firsthand. 
When you have a dysfunctional childhood, you often gravitate to unhealthy adult relationships.
It is freeing to be an adult woman and permit yourself to go without makeup!

“When it came to men, I clammed up, shut up and shut down that part of me because I was afraid of scaring them away or that I was too strong or capable. God forbid you were too strong. So it was a good juxtaposition between therapy, knowing well enough that I needed to go and work on this stuff and working out my things and my past.” - Julianna Margulies

“Talking about these experiences can help other women who are naive or came from a shitty situation, a broken home or trauma to see the downsides and not glamorize the sex industry. I just want them to draw from my experience.  That’s why I talk about it; otherwise, I would prefer not to. “ - Lana Rhoades

“A lot of people say, “Self-care and love yourself.” But really, self-care, love yourself, work on yourself. There’s a thousand other ways to make yourself more amazing besides changing your exterior.” - Lana Rhoades
