The Reflective Doc Podcast: Recent Episodes
The Reflective Doc
Dr. Jennifer Reid is a board-certified psychiatrist, writer, and award-winning educator. As The Reflective Doc, she shares helpful information about mental health concerns such as anxiety and insomnia, as well as explaining varieties of psychotherapy and coaching, including where they overlap, and who might benefit from each. Her mission is to normalize the difficult experiences we have as human beings, and encourage people to seek the help they need to live their best lives.
“Fiction offers the best means of understanding people different from oneself, short of experience. Actually, fiction can be lots better than experience, because it’s a manageable size, it’s comprehensible, while experience just steamrollers over you and you understand what happened decades later, if ever. Fiction is terrific at giving factual, psychological and moral understanding.
-Ursula K. Le Guin in Words Are My Matter: Writing on Life and Books
This quote by the brilliant writer, Ursula Le Guin, beautifully highlights the power of fiction to nurture empathy and compassion. I have seen thousands of patients over my career as a psychiatrist, each one teaching me something new about the human condition, but my understanding would lack considerable depth if I hadn’t also spent innumerable hours reading fiction.
Time spent exploring the conversations and, wonderfully, the inner monologue of my favorite characters, not to mention those of the villains and monsters, has been as important, in my opinion, as the facts taught by my instructors during psychiatric residency.
This is one reason why I’m so disturbed by the surge of book bans around the country, promoted by those who believe they are “protecting” our children by shielding them from topics they may find confusing or upsetting. Humanizing individuals different from ourselves, whether by race, culture, religion, sexual orientation or other beliefs, allows us to create a healthier future where we recognize all bodies deserve care. Hatred saps our energy through division and discord, while understanding and empathy supercharge our collective power, and allow us to grow in knowledge, particularly our important healers.
The world would have seemed smaller, more confusing, and definitely lonelier if, as a child, I hadn’t had the constant companionship and illumination of books. I am blessed with a loving family and have many wonderful people in my life, but reading is my oldest friend. Books have been there for me as I’ve faced uncertainty, grief, and anxiety. Stories of individuals living with courage and hope have propped me up through some of the darkest times, and continue to inspire me to keep going, even when our collective future seems to be veering off course. I would hate to think the young men and women seeking their own support network would be unable to find comfort in books.
We must not prevent children from reading. There are no protective bubbles thick enough to shield them from the truth, and stumbling onto these topics on social media or from a poorly informed peer can cause true pain and confusion.
I will continue to read banned books. My children are allowed to read banned books. I welcome their questions, and try to answer them honestly and without bias, or as close to this as I can manage. If I am preparing them to survive in the outside world, I hope they can learn to view books as dear friends, and try to face the unknown, whether people, places or ideas, with curiosity and compassion, and know they are never alone.

We all have stress. It’s a part of an active, engaged life. However, we simply didn’t evolve to face chronic, toxic stress, and our bodies are certainly keeping score. Listen and learn with Dr. Reid in this fascinating conversation with Dr. Lawson Wulsin, a professor of psychiatry and family medicine. He is not only an expert on the relationship between our minds and bodies, but also the author of the illuminating Toxic Stress: How Stress is Making Us Ill and What We Can Do About It.
We discuss some key questions, including:
-
What is the difference between acute and chronic stress, and why should we care?
-
How do we know if we are at risk for the long-term health effects of toxic stress?
-
Why do some communities, referred to as “blue zones” demonstrate remarkable longevity? (Hint: it has to do with activity, diet, and community involvement)

Sometimes, we are lucky enough to encounter teachers who can gently guide us toward a better version of ourselves, quietly helping us move forward through even the most difficult times. Dr. James Griffith, in this conversation on bolstering hope based on his work with the medically ill, provides just this kind of reassuring voice. Quoting Viktor Frankl and Friedrich Nietzsche, he shares his message of relief from demoralization, highlighting four key categories we may rely on for building resilience.
Do you cope with increased goal-directed behavior, or are you a relational coper, reaching out to important people in your life? Maybe you activate a core identity to move forward, or practice emotional regulation through meditation or other techniques?
Listen as Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks to Dr. James Griffith, and learn not just about his work, but also gain a deeper understanding of your past and your most important strengths. Times can be dark, but we can fight back against demoralization and find a path forward.

Listen up! Women who've been told they have "low" sexual desire do NOT want to miss this enlightening conversation.

Sheila Shanmugan MD, PhD, is a psychiatrist and physician-scientist conducting translational research at the intersection of reproductive psychiatry and computational neuroscience. Her work leverages machine learning and multimodal neuroimaging to identify neuroendocrinologic markers of risk vs. resilience for psychiatric disorders. She aims to apply this information to personalize early interventions in reproductive psychiatry.
She completed her MD/PhD at the University of Pennsylvania where she received a competitive individual NIH NRSA fellowship to study menopause-related cognitive difficulties. During this time, she led two DB, PC crossover studies to evaluate the neuromodulatory effects of exogenous estradiol, serotonergic alterations, and a stimulant medication on behavioral and neural markers of executive function. She was recently awarded a prestigious NARSAD Young Investigator Award to examine neural mechanisms underlying sex differences in depression and anxiety. The innovative and high impact nature of her work is evidenced by publication in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Journal of Psychiatry as well as recommendation in F1000Prime.

Many women are told that their low sexual desire is a problem that requires treatment. However, what this approach overlooks is the crucial influence of social and cultural aspects of sexuality and desire.

Topics we Discuss:
Why are women often blamed for low sexual desire?
What does inequity in household tasks have to do with sexual desire?
Does the objectification of women influence low sexual desire?
What are options to truly improve sexual desire in women?

She studies sex from a feminist perspective, exploring how our attitudes about gender can shape experiences of desire and orgasms. In particular, she is interested in how heteronormative and sexist worldviews can constrain sexual and relationship wellbeing.
