One mother's plea and a judge's blueprint collide with a terrifying truth: the systems meant to protect people with serious mental illness—and the communities around them—often wait until harm is done. We bring Beverly Gille and Judge Milton L. Mack Jr. together to map how a 28-year struggle, from teen psychosis to homelessness and a mass stabbing in a Traverse City Walmart, reveals the exact points where policy, privacy, and practice failed.We walk through the pivotal transitions that matter most: when minors become adults and families lose access, when court orders lapse because of rigid renewal windows, and when police lack clear authority to transport someone to a crisis center before danger peaks. Judge Mack explains the shift toward assisted outpatient treatment, why recognizing lack of insight saves lives, and how proposed Michigan bills would empower families to file petitions, broaden who can testify, and end the “seven-day trap” that breaks continuity of care.Beverly's story grounds the policy in lived experience—adult foster care that worked until it didn't, ACT teams with uneven follow-through, and a release to the streets where legal access to potent cannabis accelerated psychosis. We connect outcomes to dollars and dignity: assisted outpatient treatment reduces hospitalizations, arrests, homelessness, and drug use, delivering better recovery and safer communities without demanding new budget lines. Most of all, we challenge a false choice: untreated illness is not liberty; treatment restores agency, safety, and community trust.If this conversation resonates, share it with someone who needs to hear it.

The year is 1816, and 18-year-old Mary Shelley has fled London with her lover, Percy Shelley, and her sister, Claire. They're on their way to visit Lord Byron's villa in Lake Geneva, Switzerland - and to change the course of literary history. In this episode, Jacke talks to Caroline Lea about her novel Love, Sex, and Frankenstein, which tells the haunting, evocative story of the summer that should have broken Mary Shelley, but instead inspired her to write her Gothic masterpiece. PLUS we hear from a listener who's been reading with her children and has a recommendation for Jacke, we cover #10 on our list of Greatest Books of All Time, and Geoffrey Turnovsky (Reading Typographically: Immersed in Print in Early Modern France) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.

Send me a messageWhat if your fleet could drive further, burn less fuel, and cut emissions — all without adding a single new vehicle?In this final episode under the Sustainable Supply Chain name (before we evolve into the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast next week), I sit down with Naeem Bari, Chief Product Officer and Co-founder of Linxup, to explore how telematics is transforming small- and medium-sized fleets into powerhouses of efficiency, safety, and sustainability.You'll hear how Linxup's plug-and-play system helped customers slash 373,000 hours of idling in a year, saving over 1,650 tonnes of CO₂ - and why real-time driver feedback doesn't just reduce fuel bills, it changes behaviour. We uncover how accountability and smart coaching make roads safer, how accessible tech levels the playing field for small operators, and how AI will soon help fleets anticipate problems before they occur.This conversation is full of practical lessons on resilience, responsibility, and what happens when technology meets common sense on the road.

In today's fast-paced world, your mindset is the ultimate game-changer. It shapes how you respond to challenges, build meaningful connections, and influence others. But what if you could step back from the mental chatter that holds you back? Understanding cognitive defusion—a powerful psychological tool—can transform your inner dialogue, triggering increased motivation, and personal growth. It's not about suppressing thoughts; it's about mastering them to live more intentionally and effectively. Beyond personal benefits, cognitive defusion can be a secret weapon for influencing others. By defusing your own biases and emotional reactions, you communicate more clearly and empathetically, building trust and rapport. For example, in negotiations, defuse thoughts like "They're being unreasonable" to stay composed, listen actively, and guide the conversation toward mutual gains. Listen now and start transforming your world today!
Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”What if the question “What do I still lack?” is the doorway to your real vocation?

As Trump takes a bulldozer to the White House and liberal democracy, we take a deep dive into the devastating potential impact of the tech oligarchs here in Wisconsin. Foxconn 2.0: the Data Center Invasion, shows that as in the movies the sequel is even worse than the original. Robert tells us about economist Jerrod Bernstein's forecast that there is an AI bubble that will pop the stock market and leave Wisconsinites holding the bag on huge new fossil fuel plants and infrastructure when AI goes bust. We review how state and local officials continue to ignore growing public public opposition and lavish the tech giants with generous state a local tax subsidies. In addition, opposition to the transmission lines for massive data centers is growing and producing unique new political alignments. Also on this week's show: Congressman Brian Stiel's bill that would cut funding to Milwaukee, other major transit systems; Flu vaccination rates plummet in Wisconsin in the wake of anti-vax disinformation from the top of government; and Wisconsin federal food assistance runs out in 8 days, leaving over 700,000 Wisconsinites in peril.
Javan Van Gronigen is the Co-Founder of Donately, a leading fundraising platform that has processed over $180M in donations for 1,400+ nonprofits. With 15+ years in digital marketing and social impact, he helped create accessible, transparent fundraising technology after his work on the global Kony 2012 campaign.

You will be rewarded for that if you're more bold and you go after being unique in that space.”“With AI...you just have the ability to audit and look through mounds of information far better than you used to. Understanding who your audience is, what's working, what's not, that's really critical.”“If you don't know where your donors are coming from, you don't know where to put your money.” - Javan Van Gronigen Reach out to Javan Van Gronigen at:Website: http://www.donately.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/javanvangronigen/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wearedonatelyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/donately_org/X: https://x.com/donately Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

In this jaw-dropping Dropping Bombs episode, Adam & Jackie Williams—the CPA-and-attorney duo behind Pennywise Tax Strategies (Inc. 5000)—drop the ultimate tax playbook so entrepreneurs keep their money legally. After saving over a quarter million in taxes in just one year in their own businesses, this power couple built a movement stopping "involuntary donations" to the IRS. This isn't your typical tax prep—they guarantee ROI or keep you out of jail, delivering the exact playbook millionaires use year-round. But here's the kicker—they drop the tactical arsenal most accountants won't touch: hidden tax code loopholes, the Augusta Rule, and the best tax strategies to maximize your deductions—all with audit-proof documentation. Plus, they explain why most accountants miss out on significant savings for their clients. The best part? You can start executing today, not next tax season. If you're tired of watching your hard-earned money disappear into tax bills, this episode is for you. Stop overpaying, and start building real wealth today.

In this episode, I'm honored to welcome Dr. Ray Dorsey, a renowned neurologist, researcher, and author of the New York Times bestseller, The Parkinson's Plan. Together, we dive into the critical topic of Parkinson's Disease, now the fastest growing neurological disorder in the world, and explore how environmental toxins (rather than aging or genetics), are fueling its rise. Dr. Dorsey shares his expertise on how exposures, even as early as in utero, can increase the risk of Parkinson's and other serious conditions, and offers practical steps families can take to protect themselves and future generations. Throughout our conversation, we discuss the broader themes of environmental health, fertility, and advocacy. We explore the science behind how early-life exposures can plant the seeds for neurodegenerative diseases, the importance of shifting our understanding from genetics to environment, and the actionable ways we can reduce risk. Dr. Dorsey also introduces the “Parkinson's 25” - a set of practical recommendations for families, and shares inspiring stories of advocacy and change. In this episode, we cover:

Psychologists Off The Clock: A Psychology Podcast About The Science And Practice Of Living Well
Have you ever found yourself holding onto feelings of guilt or shame long after a difficult experience or mistake? In this episode, Jill sits down with Dr. Carolyn Allard, a leading voice in trauma-focused psychology and research. Together, they unpack the complex nature of guilt and shame, especially when these emotions become non-adaptive in the face of trauma or hardship. Carolyn, who is also the author of Transform Your Guilt and Shame: Evidence-Based Strategies to Heal from Trauma and Adversity, shares how to recognize the difference between guilt and shame and introduces the idea of “non-adaptive guilt and shame” (NAGS). You'll gain insight into how these emotions link to moral injury and other trauma responses, and walk away with actionable tools such as hindsight bias and justification analysis to better understand, challenge, and manage them.Listen and Learn: How guilt and shame differ lies in focus, as guilt is about actions and shame is about identity, and why they matterHow moral injury can emerge from situations where individuals face impossible choices that conflict with their values, leading to lasting feelings of guilt and shameWhy we feel non-adaptive guilt and shame often comes down to distorted beliefs about responsibility, justification, and values, and how understanding these patterns helps us break free from self-blame and move toward self-compassionHow hindsight bias can trick us into unfair self-judgment, and by reflecting on our choices and context at the time, we can gain a clearer, kinder perspectiveUnderstanding the difference between accountability (being answerable) and responsibility (having control or intention) and how this helps us untangle guilt and shame, process mistakes effectively, and break the self-reinforcing cycles of trauma that impair our ability to act according to our valuesResources: Transform Your Guilt and Shame: Evidence-Based Strategies to Heal from Trauma and Adversity: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9781433843419 Carolyn's Website: https://www.carolynallardphd.com/Connect with Carolyn on Social Media: Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/carolynallardphd.bsky.social Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/p/Carolyn-Allard-PhD LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/carolyn-allard-99749155/About Carolyn B.
