Bad To Mad w/ Marie Nicolini

Joined by guest host Dr. Marie Nicolini, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, Neurosurgery and Neurosciences at UT Southwestern (30:11), Adam and Marie dive into the world of end of life care, expanding upon the intricacies of treatments, processes, and stigma that surrounds these crucial conversations.

First, Adam and Marie explore how societal attitudes towards ending one’s life has evolved over time and why acknowledging and addressing mental health struggles can lead to more inclusive treatment (05:16).

Then, they build a conversation around assisted death, how we distinguish between patients with conditions that are curable and non-curable, and the power of language in shaping discourse (39:44).

Tune in now and enjoy the type of conversations you wish you had around the workplace water cooler!
