In this episode of think fast we are speaking with Brigitte Lavoie who is a neuroscientist that worked on the fundamentals of antagonist muscles, when we need one muscle to contract and another to relax. Most motions our bodies does automatically keep the balance between two sets of muscles in an equilibrium thanks to a series of reflexes but walking is different and one of the main skills humans learn in our earliest years. This episode explores the research into how we walk and where we need automatic reflexes and when we need them to be overridden. This episode is particularly special because it covers science so foundational to modern brain science every neuroscientist I know had to learn this.

SFP 95 – Writing the Headlines of our Life Today: What we can learn from going through cancer for the situation we are in right now with Brigitte Lavoie

Brigitte Lavoie about implementing an SF suicide prevention program. In today’s episode, we talk with Brigitte Lavoie, M.P.s, Solution Focused therapist, trainer and supervisor, about what fascinates her with Solution Focus, how she got in touch with SF as the director of Suicide Action Montreal in 1997 and how SF made sense in the suicide prevention field especially also for traditional men. She shares the story of how one moment in the implementation process of the suicide prevention program, that Brigitte developed for the Province of Quebec, changed her perception in the way she does trainings ever since. Learn how they met with the people that were most against the project, really saw them as experts, and listened to them with an SF stance to develop a shared vision. Get to know the differences this 3-day training on suicide prevention makes and the hope it gives. Listen to the metaphors Brigitte uses to talk about SF and how she shows the difference between SF and problem talk. And learn more about the Solution Focused stance as well as the Pygmalion effect and how it applies to Solution Focus. We furthermore talk about the SFBTA 2019 conference in Montreal and Brigitte’s passion to spread SF among the French speaking community, speaking the client’s language and translating SF practice into our clients' words, and being curious and learning more from different voices. Check out the challenge of the week: Pick someone that is difficult for you to deal with and take 5-10 minutes to imagine that this person is doing his/her best, that the person has something that you can admire, imagine it's your favorite client, your favorite person, what is it that touches your heart with that person, and enter the room with that person and see what differences it makes. Stay tuned for Elfie’s Birthday project about "SF and suicide prevention" and enjoy one of Brigitte’s highlights of this podcast and funny end.
