Bio

Hello!

I am a psychology student deeply passionate about mental health advocacy and creating safe, non-judgmental spaces for people to just be heard. Life can get overwhelming, and I am here to offer a warm, empathetic ear whenever you need to untangle your thoughts or just vent after a long day.

When I am not studying or working on social media projects, you can usually find me geeking out over stationery items, organizing my planners, or trying to practice my French.

No matter what you are going through, your feelings are valid, and I am so glad you are here. Let's chat!

Perspective Skills

...See more Hello everyone,  Perspective skills stood out to me as another important topic to discuss. As active listeners on 7Cups, one of the skills we acquire through training and taking chat hours is taking on the perspective of others. As the course describes it, it is a collection of skills acquired through practice, and where you have to seek, understand, and actively use these different perspectives. It is a mature and well-understood framework of viewing the world. Instead of looking at it objectively, you view it subjectively because everyone's life experiences and viewpoints really shape how we view the world as unbiased active listeners tasked with providing a safe space for others by offering support without judgment.  For Example, I am an American, and we are a very individualistic culture, meaning that our individual achievements and passions are held in the highest regard, while other countries, especially ones in the East, are very collectivistic cultures, so their identity is based on social roles and group belonging. As an active listener, I have to remember that when talking to members who are from collectivist cultures, group membership and social roles are held in higher regard than in America, so I have to take on the perspective of the member in order to listen and support them.  I have two questions:  1. What strategies do you employ while actively listening to step outside your own biased and subjective viewpoint, while remaining unbiased to provide support?  2. Can you share an experience, without disclosing confidential information, where you were listening to a member and had to navigate a different cultural background?

The Importance of Thinking Critically

...See more Hello everyone,  One of the skills that stood out to me was critical thinking. The definition from the IDG course states that it is a skill where you are able to critically review evidence, viewpoints, and plans. I like that this is listed as a skill because critical thinking is something we acquire through practice, and I think this is an incredibly important skill to have, especially since AI is becoming more prevalent. So it's easy to fall for misinformation or doctored evidence or videos using AI; it's important to ensure that we ask questions, check the source, and look at different points of view. Why is this an important skill? First, it helps us to effectively solve problems we face at school, work, or home because we are thinking in a fair-minded fashion, where we are less biased and are able to look at all the pieces of evidence, and this allows us to make logical decisions that are based on fact instead of emotions and biases. A recent example where I had to use my critical thinking skills was when my father told me that Ginger Ale (Canada Dry) had been recalled due to contamination issues, and the first thing I asked was, where do you get this information? He told me ***; well, that doesn't mean anything. The company hasn't issued a statement. I googled it, and one simple question dismantled that lie that had gotten thousands of views and comments. It's important, with the increased usage of AI and new improvements in technology, that we are constantly verifying the validity of claims made online.  I have two questions:  1. With the increase in AI usage and fake news spread online, what are some of the biggest challenges you face in thinking critically?  2. Can you share a time when you relied on your own biases instead of looking at the objective facts and how that either led to bad decision-making?
