Socially Working Book Club: Dopamine Nation

This is a virtual monthly meetup discussion for anyone working in a social work-related field, specifically intended for therapists, those working in healthcare, health, wellness... any job intended to help people live their healthiest lives. We will meet for an hour to discuss a book to develope personally and professionally.
In addition to learning things, my hope is that this would be an opportunity to connect with colleagues and network. Reading picks could be any book related to therapy/social work, mental health, trauma, cultural competency, or really any resources that will help us grow as humans and helpers.
"But I don't have time to read a whole book/I don't like reading!"
That's ok! If you want to have productive discussion and learn some things from your peers, we want you there! We will be basing our conversation around the book and will reference as a resource, BUT even if you don't read all or even most of the book, you are welcome to join the conversation and/or listen to the discussion! Additionally, I am committed to only choosing books also available on audio to make it easier to take in content.

This next meeting will be February 9th from 5:30-6:30 pm
We will be discussing topics from Anna Lembke's Dopamine Nation
As stated above, you do NOT have to have read the book. We are just using it as a springboard to start the conversation on trends you have seen with addictions, treatments you have seen to be effective (or very much not effective), unique challenges of addictions, ect.

Apologies for the issues in logging in last time! I am using a different, more user-friendly platform this month with a link to easily log in. Here is the invite with the link, which should take you right to the meeting :)
