That's space, Julia.

Hi, I'm Dr. Jenna Glover.

Welcome to Radio Headspace and a Monday morning.

I'm so excited because I'll be guest hosting all week to celebrate Pride.

As someone who's part of the LGBTQ plus community, this week is really special to me and to so

many others.

So let's get into it.

First, a little about me.

I'm a psychologist at Headspace and I specialize in something called dialectical behavior therapy.

Essentially, I help people understand how too opposite ideas can be true at once.

For example, you know how it's bad to be on your phone all the time?

But TikTok's really fun.

That's dialectical thinking.

It helps us be more flexible so we can adapt to what life throws at us.

So what does this mental flexibility have to do with pride?

It can help members of the LGBTQ plus community and honestly everyone to have a get a complicated

and non-binary world.

You can fill other but part of a community.

You can disagree deeply with your family and still love them.

It's about approaching life with a more delicate and nuanced perspective.

So today I'm going to break down this concept a little further and discuss how it can improve

our mental health and society in general, which I know sounds dramatic, but it's true.
