Embracing Emotional Well-Being

Welcome to The Culture Translator podcast. Today, we are posting an interview with Julie Yonker. Julie is a professor and Public Health Department Chair at Calvin University, where she teaches classes in psychology, gender studies, and public health. She received her B.A. from Calvin in Biology and Chemistry; then pursued teratology research (the study of birth defects) at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and Procter & Gamble; received her Ph.D. from Stockholm University in cognitive and experimental psychology; and completed a post-doctoral fellowship in substance abuse at the University of Cincinnati, Department of Psychiatry. We’ll be talking today primarily about how mental health issues show up differently between young men and women—and how to help them get the help they need.
