  • Things I Learned Teaching Benzo Peer Training

    Things I Learned Teaching Benzo Peer Training
    Nov 22 2023

    A benzo peer support training class can be quite educational — especially for the instructor. In early November, I had the pleasure of teaching a sold-out course to individuals with a wide mix of backgrounds. It was quite illuminating. 

    In today’s episode, I share some insights from teaching peer support training. I also discuss my response to some constructive criticism, look at our focus here at Easing Anxiety, and wish everyone a very happy holiday season.
