M.E.S.H. in the beginning...
MyNDTALK with Dr. Pamela Brewer aired as live radio on WPFW – 89.3 FM Radio from the mid-90s to late 2021. MyNDTALK now returns as M.E.S.H. with Dr Pamela Brewer in 2025. The initial mission of providing respectful, quality mental health/relationship health conversations continues.
MyNDTALK featured a wide range of guests who discussed post-traumatic growth, grief, domestic violence, online games/activities that hurt children, relationship health, self-esteem growth, and so much more. MyNDTALK was the place to meet a range of authors, including Charlotte Pierce-Baker, who discussed her experiences raising a sonwith bipolar disorder, Nancy Pickard, who discussed her book “Bigger, Better, Braver” and strategies for overcoming limitations and finding courage.
Eliza Factor discussed disability and its complexities, a Mormon wife who escaped the life she found limiting, and found a life of her own took us through her harrowing attempts to leave her religion. We met the grieving 9-11 widow who crafted a way to give back, and the therapist who wrote about her relationship with a married man, the introvert who opened our eyes to the different forms of introversion and how to have a relationship with an introvert.
