Hormesis, Post Traumatic Growth, Shell Shock, Terry Pratchett | The Interstice Podcast Ep.61
The Interstice Podcast
Hormesis and Post Traumatic Growth, these are nearly completely new terms to me and they're both great for considering the idea of healthy stress. That's our opener for this episode but then we get into some juicy history details. I saw a clip on reddit of soldiers who had shell shock and it made me think of warfare and its evolving impact on us and our understanding of it in greater public consciousness. Then as I like to do sometimes we go on a rant about one of my favourite authors Terry Pratchett. The man is a pure gem and I never get tired of discussing his impact on writing and my life.
info_outlineRobin answers questions with the careful confidence of someone who considers well what's in their head before speaking. When you ask her about what led her to Japan, you notice something curious: while she describes her series of choices plainly, and as though any other might have made them, they are exceptional. Not many have travelled in her family. Where others might then see that as evidence as to why they should stay home, Robin saw it as her reason to go abroad. While not at all a Japanophile, Robin cares deeply for the country that she now inhabits. She's genuine, earnest and intelligent, embodying the kind of unassuming grace that has the habit of confounding people. Robin is a striking character, reminding us that strength's ability to overcome obstacles does not originate solely from force, but also calm, composure, and an appreciation for a good vegan dessert.
