    I'M GLAD WE DON'T REUSE CONDOMS ANYMORE - HISTORY OF CONDOMS
    Mar 29 2025

    Sarah speaks to Dr. Kate Stephenson, a historian with a particular set of specialties - school uniforms, sex in Edinburgh, and condoms. Coined as the 'condom historian,' Kate and Sarah speak about sex in Edinburgh throughout time and the history of condoms. Women dominated the industry and people would reuse them again and again. The history is fascinating!

  • LCSW Exam Prep: Margaret Mahler's Object Relations Theory

    LCSW Exam Prep: Margaret Mahler's Object Relations Theory
    May 9 2023

    Come along as I do a quick recap of object relations theory in preparation for my LCSW exam. This rundown is short, sweet, and filled with rapproachement. I hope these audio summaries of theories sometimes utilized in social work are helping others study and learn. The information about this theory came from the Dawn Apgar Social Work Licensing Clinical Exam, A Comprehensive Study Guide book (3rd edition). No this is not an ad, just the book I'm studying from.
