In this episode, we welcome Sam Peterson from the Durham Crisis Response Center to discuss his work in schools and the impact his programs have on improving kids’ emotional regulation. After telling us about his background and how he got started at DCRC, Sam talks about the important topics he teaches, including how to handle relationships and identify toxic/abusive ones, understanding toxic masculinity, as well as how to sit with their anger and learn coping mechanisms to deal with their emotions. Harmony chimes in to discuss learning consent about touch and understanding love, especially when coming from the point of view of a survivor of trauma. Sam also emphasizes the importance of mental health and how to “start with yourself” in terms of assessing your own biases, especially when related to trauma and helping kids understand emotional regulation.
