Walking With Lisa - October 2023
Manage episode 380985592 series 2438149
Hello, I'm Eric Anderson and welcome to YXE Underground. If you are a long time listener of the podcast, thank you!
If this is your first time listening, welcome! YXE Underground is local, independent podcast here in Saskatoon that shines a light on people who are doing incredible things but are flying under the radar.
I am so excited that this season, we will have the wonderful Lisa Greig on every month for 'Walking with Lisa' episodes.
In the past few seasons, we've done several episodes focusing on mental health and they have become some of the most listened to episodes in the six seasons of the podcast. It got me thinking that it would be great if we could do quick mental health check in every month and luckily Lisa said yes to this pitch.
Lisa Greig is a mother of two young children, a social worker who today works at the University of Saskatchewan, the author of a best selling children's book entitled 'Scream! Shout! Let's Feel Our Grief Out' and a trusted mental health advocate within our community.
She has a true gift of explaining mental health issues and sharing insights in a clear, honest and compassionate way and I am thrilled that she will be sharing her wisdom with us this season.
The premise of these 'Walking with Lisa' episodes is simple. Lisa and I will go for a walk and I will start our conversation with this question: "What's on your mind, Lisa?"
Now, for this episode, we might have skipped out on the walking part due to the weather! It snowed on the day we were going to record and I just wasn't ready to walk in the cold and deal with slippery sidewalks yet. So Lisa graciously offered her office instead. I promise we will walk next month no matter how cold it is!
Our conversation centered around a couple of really interesting themes. The first is the idea of belonging versus fitting in, which is something that really hit home with me in regards to my days as a journalist, and then how that idea fits into what makes a supportive, inclusive community. As always, Lisa shares her thoughts and insights in a clear and honest way. I am grateful for these conversations and I hope you enjoy them too.
These 'Walking with Lisa' episodes drop on the last Thursday of every month wherever you find your favourite podcasts including Apple Podcasts and Spotify. You can Follow YXE Underground on your favourite podcast app so that you won't miss a single Lisa episode and feel free to leave a 5-star review if you like what you hear.
Thanks so much for listening and don't forget that a new episode of YXE Underground drops November 9th!
Cheers...Eric
