Episode 1, Season 6: Who's Got Your Six?
New year! New season! New look! AND new theme! Our hosts kick off season six of the P4P podcast introducing the theme, “Who’s Got Your Six?” (see what we did there?), and talk about the importance of cultivating our own support systems and people. Each host shares a story about someone who has (and has had) their “six”. As mental health providers, we all need and deserve someone to have our backs. So how do we cultivate these supportive relationships? Check out this episode! And as always, thank you listeners for having OUR six.
We LOVE hearing from our listeners. If you have a question, comment, topic suggestion for a future episode, or even a guest recommendation, let us know! We also welcome listeners to share your “EBP Confession” story (season 4 theme), your “What’s Your Why?” story (season 5 theme), or your “Who’s Got Your Six” story (season 6 theme). You can leave us a voice mail message at speakpipe.com/cdpp4p, or send us an email at cdp-podcast-ggg@usuhs.edu. Your message could be featured in an upcoming episode!

Calls-to-action:
- Don’t take “no” for an answer when you want to be part of a group or work with an individual you can learn from.
- Know your value. Don’t waste your energy on someone else or an organization that doesn’t recognize your value.
- It’s ok to ask for help. It’s ok to be real. Deep relationships thrive on authenticity. GIve yourself permission to acknowledge your limits and vulnerabilities.
