Send us a textTRIGGER WARNING: Discussions or multiple forms of abuse. Lynn Stroud was brought up in a house filled with anger and tension, with a father who was a compulsive gambler. On top of that, her father and one of her brothers became overly protective towards her, and would dicate where she was allowed to go, what she could wear and who she could see. The experience that Lynn endured as a teenager would continue into her relationships with men, and her story focuses on one terrifying relationship in her twenties, which plays out like a horror movie. Lynn suffered narcissistic abuse, coercive control, extreme jealousy, manipulation, aggression, stalking, sexual abuse and eventually reproductive coercion, which Lynn explains in this extraordinary episode. As with all our episodes, we focus on the positive outcome and the journey through these life changing experiences. Lynn now shares her story so that others can learn the signs of coercive control. The U.S. is severely lacking in laws against coercive control. Lynn is trying to expand the conversations around coercive control to include the insidious act of reproductive coercion.LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/lynn-s-16878b6Support the show

My guest today is Jill Schultz. Jill Schultz is a best-selling author, serial entrepreneur, disruptor, and motivational speaker. Jill's mission is to help release people from shame. Her own experience of experimenting with other children at a young age because of her own sexual trauma has led her to speak out on this taboo topic and help anyone who has a secret or has felt shame of any kind to create a life of love, success, and abundance. In this episode we discuss healing, overcoming trauma, shame, manifestation, self-love and abundance.Website - https://www.jilleschultz.com/IG - https://www.instagram.com/jilleschultz_/FB - https://www.facebook.com/jilleschultz11LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jilleschultz/YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@jilleschultzJill's Book - https://www.jilleschultz.com/bookIn this episode you will learn:1. How vulnerability not only empowers the storyteller but also gives others permission to confront and heal their own pain.2.How embracing pain can unlock resilience, gratitude, and a mindset of abundance.3. Why understanding and forgiveness are essential steps toward personal liberation. “Shame thrives in silence, but it can't survive in the light. The moment I shared my story, the weight I carried for 41 years began to lift. Speaking out isn't just about healing yourself—it's about giving others permission to do the same. Your voice can be the light someone else needs to find their way out of the darkness.”“Your trauma doesn't define you—it refines you. The scars we carry are not signs of weakness; they're proof of survival. When you face your pain head-on and decide to grow through it, you turn it into a source of strength. That's where true healing begins.”“Self-love isn't just a concept; it's a practice. It's choosing every day to forgive yourself, to see your worth, and to live in alignment with who you truly are. You are not the things that happened to you—you are the light that rises from it. Remember: you are deserving of abundance, joy, and every dream your heart dares to hold.”

Ecclesiastes 7:14

"I didn't expect to be Donovan Mitchell...It all started with a dream on a boat." Donovan Mitchell is making history this NBA season, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to unprecedented heights. With a record-breaking 15-game winning streak, the team is off to its best start in franchise history, surpassing even the heights of the LeBron era. As the Cavs embark on this historical start to the season, the 5x NBA All Star sits down with Ryan, Fred, and Channing to unpack what's fueling the Cavs' dominance this season, shedding some insight on the team's mentality, lessons learned through past losses and what the future holds on this episode of The Pivot Podcast in partnership with Fanatics. Mitchell highlights the team-first mentality instilled by Coach Atkinson, whose philosophy of playing with pace and building good habits has created a winning environment. While he understands the undefeated record won't last forever, Mitchell opens up about the unique chemistry in the Cleveland locker room, where egos are left at the door and players genuinely root for one another—a dynamic that Mitchell believes will help them achieve something special and push through times of adversity.  But basketball is just part of Mitchell's story that we discuss in this conversation as the All Star reflects on personal milestones he's accomplished in his 28 years of life, from buying his mom a house to fulfilling a childhood dream to opening an athletic center at his alma mater hoping to inspire the next generation. In an emotional moment of reflection, Mitchell shares how his grandmother paved the way for him and his family to have the opportunity to turn big dreams into reality, never forgetting where he came from. He shares how growing up between a low-income neighborhood in NYC and the affluent Brewster Academy in Connecticut shaped his work ethic and exposed him to the world, teaching him the value of opportunity and harsh reality of culture and status. The guys go back to Mitchell's college years where his pride in his roots and his admiration for fellow Louisville star, Lamar Jackson, as Mitchell's inspiration from the quarterback originated by him having a front row seat to Jackson's success and rise from an underestimated prospect to 2x NFL MVP. But with all the highs and accolades earned, Mitchell opens up about the lessons he's learned from tough losses- especially during his time with the Utah Jazz- and how those moments have made him a stronger player and better leader. Now, as he steers the Cavs through a historic season, Mitchell is focused on leaving a legacy that extends beyond the court, using his platform to empower others and make a lasting impact.  Tap in for more of the best conversations in sports and entertainment and don't forget to hit subscribe on the Pivot Podcast Youtube Channel.

What We Discuss in this Episode Jenny's path to leadership and empowerment What does it mean to embrace ambition How discomfort and fear can turn into growth and leadership How to move from "number two" to "number one" positions in your career Fundraising insights for non-profit leaders Aligning donors' values with your fundraising cause The role of celebration within charitable organizations How understanding personal assumptions and biases can improve leadership Key Takeaways Growth often comes from stepping outside of comfort zones and facing fears head-on. Approach your goals with a sense of inner worth and fullness rather than seeking external validation. Effective fundraising involves aligning donors' values with the cause and communicating a transformative vision. Recognizing and celebrating successes within organizations helps maintain motivation and community spirit. Seek clear, constructive feedback from peers to gain valuable perspectives on personal growth. Demonstrate self-awareness, courage, and the ability to act on feedback for personal leadership. Thriving in supportive roles is equally important and can be a path to discovering one's strengths. Knowing your worth at the start of each day fosters a sense of abundance and empowerment.

Certain things in life make the act of creation quite difficult. At times, adversity arises and makes it hard for us to power through and keep producing photographs. This could be any type of adversity. Maybe it's a physical injury or ailment that makes it much harder for you to travel, hike, or carry your camera gear. It could also be mental or emotional adversity. Everything from depression to stressful life events like the loss of a job or even a loved one can take us out of the frame of mind to create artwork.

Ecclesiastes 7:14

Summary In this episode of Lassoing Leadership, hosts Garth Nichols and Jason Rogers explore the themes of empowerment, trust, and purpose in leadership with guests Belle Liang and Tim Klein. They discuss the importance of a purpose mindset, the journey from a passion mindset to a purpose-driven life, and the role of privilege in shaping one's purpose. The conversation emphasizes the significance of mentorship and self-reflection in cultivating a meaningful life and career. Takeaways Empowerment and trust are foundational in leadership. A purpose mindset focuses on the reasons behind our actions. Adversity can lead to greater self-reflection and purpose. Privilege can sometimes hinder the pursuit of purpose. Purposeful individuals often experience greater success and fulfillment. Mentorship plays a crucial role in developing a purpose mindset. Self-reflection is key to understanding one's motivations. Purpose is an internal journey, not dictated by external factors. The story we tell ourselves shapes our sense of purpose. Purpose can coexist with practicality in career choices.

What's remarkable about embracing his mindset is that it brings us favor with God. Moreover, it equips us with the strength to navigate life's challenges, improving every situation we encounter.

In a Chinese study, donor CAR-T cells sent autoimmune diseases into remission. There's hope that the therapy is scalable. And, scientists used decades of yellow-bellied marmot research to find a way to measure how adverse events affect wild animals' survival.CAR-T Cell Therapies Show Promise For Autoimmune DiseasesFor decades, immunologists have explored CAR-T cell therapy as an effective tool to fight blood cancer. Increasingly, CAR-T cells are being explored as a potential silver bullet for treating autoimmune diseases, like lupus—which currently have no cure.Thus far, CAR-T cell therapy has largely used CRISPR-modified immune cells from a person to treat that person's own diseases. But new research from China has made a huge step forward for this treatment: Researchers were successful in using donated CAR-T cells from one person to treat another person's systemic sclerosis, an autoimmune condition that causes atypical growth of connective tissues.If donor CAR-T cell therapy does indeed work, as posited in this paper, it could mean the therapy is more scalable than it would be otherwise. Joining Ira to talk about this study and its potential impact is Daniel Baker, PhD student in the immunology lab of Dr. Carl June at the University of Pennsylvania.Measuring The Effects Of Early Life Adversity—In MarmotsIt's well-established in psychology that if you experience trauma as a child, chances are it'll impact your physical and mental health as an adult, and could even affect your economic status. In academic terms, this is called early childhood adversity. And psychologists have developed a scoring system for measuring the cumulative effect of adverse childhood experiences, which can include abuse and household dysfunction, and it can help predict health risks later in life.So we can specifically measure that in humans. But what about other animals? If you've adopted a dog that's had a turbulent past, you know that that can result in reclusive or skittish behavior as an adult. But there hasn't been a good way to measure it in wild animals.Well, a new study from UCLA, published in the journal Ecology Letters, establishes a similar index for wild animals, and it used decades of findings from a mammal: the yellow-bellied marmot. So how could it help conservation efforts for other animals?Ira Flatow talks with Xochitl Ortiz-Ross, a PhD student in ecology and evolutionary biology at UCLA, and one of the authors on that study.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Sarah's story is one of transformation, healing, and the courage to embrace authenticity. Diagnosed with cancer at the young age of 20, she shares how suppressing her needs for love and attention impacted her health and led her on a journey of self-discovery. Her experiences offer valuable insights into navigating life's toughest challenges and finding purpose in the face of adversity. We delve into topics that will resonate with anyone on a journey of self-healing, including the expectations we place on family, especially parents, and the often unspoken disappointment that arises when we realize they aren't perfect. We also discuss her experience coming out to her family, especially within a Catholic background, and the courage it took to seek acceptance and love on her own terms. Sarah speaks to the importance of community and interdependence, emphasizing that we're not meant to carry our burdens alone. But what if you truly are alone, without family or close support? Sarah offers compassionate guidance on how to find a supportive community, even when starting from scratch, reminding us that connection is fundamental to healing and personal fulfillment.
