We dive into questions like what makes up a creative person? Are there inherent qualities that all creatives share? Can creatives exist beyond the realm of “artistic” careers? In addition, we explore the relationship between mental illness, such as anxiety and depression, and creativity. Does anxiety hinder creativity or help it? Are depressed or anxious individuals more creative? And what is the psychological detriment that is believed to aid in creativity?

What changes in the brain when one experiences a trauma? Is there a way to change in a positive way? Are we the facilitators of this change, or is it something the brain innately tries to do, and can we help it? We explore many hot spots in relation to this growth, like that of rumination, resilience, and other factors that can aid someone in experiencing this life-altering growth. Also, of particular importance in this social and political day and age of the #metoo movement, we talk about PTG and intimate partner violence.

What determines your identity? What questions can you ask yourself to begin this process? Why are asking these questions such an important life-task to undertake? In addition, we expand on the topic of neuroplasticity and some related studies showing the mind’s ability to change the physiology of the brain, as well as the benefits to working towards a positive internal environment.

Birth. Oh glorious, bloody, birth. But, wherefore art thou student? How can you both be of help, learn the necessary medicine you need to as a medical student, and still respect and honor the sacred moment of the bringing into the world of another human being?

How can one truly determine one’s objective level of pain? What is pain? How can we better serve those around us by becoming better analysts of pain? We tackle all of these questions, the science behind pain, and more in this episode! And, to top it all off, we have an exclusive interview with a resilient individual, Rene, who lives his daily life with the diagnosis of Ankylosing Spondylitis, as well as an agonizing 10 out of 10 type pain. www.notyourtypicalpresentation.com Fri, 10 Aug 2018 03:00:00 +0000 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59441cbea5790a7c1cff56dc/t/5b481c792b6a286d041ee204/1531452605479/10+out+of+10.m4a https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59441cbea5790a7c1cff56dc/t/5b481a66352f53c3186c876d/1531452069508/The+Notorious+Masquerader.m4a In this episode of Atypical Presentation, we take a much closer look into a disease that is not often discussed in medical school and is rarely seen in the practicing world, yet a diagnosis that changes one’s every day life in a way far more hidden and dramatic than one would imagine - we talk about Mitochondrial Disease, commonly referred to as the “Notorious Masquerader”. In addition to information about this disease process, diagnostics, and treatment modalities, we were absolutely honored to have Amanda come onto the show to talk about living her daily life with this disease, and how she is able to keep herself motivated and thriving in the face of a chronic disease. www.notyourtypicalpresentation.com Fri, 03 Aug 2018 03:00:00 +0000 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59441cbea5790a7c1cff56dc/t/5b481a66352f53c3186c876d/1531452069508/The+Notorious+Masquerader.m4a https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59441cbea5790a7c1cff56dc/t/5b481653575d1f05994ae5da/1531451015818/Attachment+and+Attunement.m4a In this episode of the podcast Atypical Presentation, we explore the topics of attachment and attunement, and how they shape the way we relate to those in our lives, as well as our own experiences. We talk about the foundation of these two postulates, beginning with the famous psychologist who started it all, John Bowlby. We also discuss how attachment and attunement play a role in post-traumatic stress disorder, and just what exactly goes on in the human brain during a traumatic event and the subsequent coping process. www.notyourtypicalpresentation.com Fri, 27 Jul 2018 03:01:00 +0000 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59441cbea5790a7c1cff56dc/t/5b481653575d1f05994ae5da/1531451015818/Attachment+and+Attunement.m4a https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59441cbea5790a7c1cff56dc/t/5b48137e352f53c3186b9605/1531450363397/Sleep+and+Glymphatics.m4a In this episode of the podcast Atypical Presentation, we talk all about sleep. Living in a generation that is so apt to passing up on those precious hours of shut eye in order to scroll through our glowing screens, we often subject ourselves to the harrowing effects of sleep deprivation. Here you will learn about the science behind sleep, how it clears out beta amyloid plaques, what exactly the glymphatic system is, and how you can make some changes in your sleep schedule to protect your body from chronic diseases!

Just how much of an impact can the body we inhabit play in our mental health? What exactly forms our self image? Are there ways we can better control what plays a role in this modeling process? And how does all of this tie into the medical realm of dermatology? What does it look like to be a dermatology practitioner, specifically a physician assistant? This episode, I had the absolute pleasure to interview a fellow physician assistant, Savanna, who also hosts a podcast all of her own.
