Welcome to the Social-Engineer Podcast: The Doctor Is In Series - where we will discuss understandings and developments in the field of psychology. In today’s episode, Abbie is joined by Megan Barry. Megan Barry is the former mayor of Nashville, TN, the first woman to be elected to the office. While she was in office, she lost her only son, Max, to a drug overdose. Since leaving her position, Barry is working to combat the shame and guilt that comes from the loss of her son and to help those who struggle with substance use disorder and their loved ones by speaking up and speaking out. Her memoir, “It’s What You Do Next: The Fall and Rise of Nashville’s First Female Mayor,” was released in November and is a USA Today Bestseller. [Feb 3, 2025]
