Podcasts about advocates

1. Kathy Hochul (New York Governor) – Economic Hypocrisy Hochul previously encouraged conservatives and wealthy job creators to leave New York. After large numbers of high‑income residents relocated, she now publicly urges wealthy individuals to return. This is hypocrisy—rejecting wealth creators ideologically while depending on them financially to sustain social programs. Left‑wing governance is hostile to success yet reliant on taxing it. 2. James Talarico (Texas Democratic Senate Candidate) – Religious & Cultural Contradictions Democrats selected Talarico to appeal to Christians because of his seminary background. His theological statements (e.g., describing God as “non‑binary”) are radical reinterpretations of Christianity. Additional Points: Supports abortion access for transgender individuals. Expresses discomfort with traditional symbols like the American flag and the Christian cross. Advocates reducing meat consumption and runs a vegan campaign in barbecue‑centric Texas. 3. Joe Kent (Former Trump Administration Official) – Foreign Policy Reversal Kent resigned in protest of U.S. military action against Iran, blaming Israeli influence. His past statements strongly supported aggressive action against Iran and praised Trump’s Iran policy. He later suggests (without evidence) that Israel may be threatening President Trump. Media reports suggest he may have leaked classified information. 4. Cesar Chavez (Labor Icon) – Moral Hypocrisy and Historical Revision Chavez has long been revered by the left as a civil‑rights and labor hero. A New York Times exposé alleges Chavez sexually abused minors over many years. The Left has: Allegedly concealed or ignored these accusations because Chavez aligned with their politics. Continued honoring him with statues, street names, and official recognition. Ideology was prioritized over justice and child protection. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Sports fans can place bets on their favorite teams and athletes faster and easier than before, thanks to legalized sports gambling. But was it the wrong bet to make?

Horses have tiny engines within almost every cell of their bodies, and each of these runs on fuel that comes from the food they eat. These engines are called mitochondria. This podcast describes these engines and what happens to our horses when they stop working efficiently. One thing is for certain: adding more fuel doesn't help them run better. The only way to improve the health of horses is to improve the way their mitochondria work. But is producing power the only thing mitochondria do? Research into mitochondria shows that these powerhouses of the cell were once bacteria with their own DNA, and they communicate with each other and insert snippets of their DNA into the human DNA. They also need time to clean up and repair themselves. They can operate on two different fuels, but exhaust themselves when running on only one, becoming stuck and unable to switch to the other. This leads to poor health, breakdowns, and premature death. ********** Community.TheHorsesAdvocate.com is a place to learn about horses, barns, and farms.

Gissele Taraba never imagined her lifelong dream to work in Canada's child welfare system would end in burnout. And she certainly didn't expect to start a new career, become an author, become a podcaster, and be in the process of making a documentary. And she really really didn't think all would be around the ideas of self love and compassion. But here she is, and she is thriving.  Through her personal discovery of her lack of self love and lack of compassion for herself, Gissele has dedicated her life to helping others discover the power of meeting those challenges head on. Whether it's just sitting in acknowledgment of your imposter syndrome, coming to the table to resolve conflicts in a relationship, or filling your own cup so that you can help someone else (if they are ready) out of a mess, you do not want to miss this episode.    For more from Gissele: www.maitrcentre.com  Book: Reimagining Work Podcast: Love & Compassion with Gissele   For More From Sober Coach/Substance Abuse Counselor Max Njist, visit MaxNijst.org

Today we're joined by Dr. Matthew Harmody — a retired emergency physician, living kidney donor, and one of the leading advocates for kidney donation in the United States. Matthew donated a kidney to a stranger, then dedicated his post-medical career to eliminating the national kidney waitlist through education, mentorship, and policy reform.Matt's Website@5k50ss on InstagramMatt's Facebook pageMatt's Facebook groupLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-harmody-97988311/He currently serves as Board Chair of the National Kidney Donation Organization, is a founding member of the Coalition to Modify NOTA, and has just released a remarkable new book, Ascending America: Five Kidney Donors, Fifty States, One Record-Breaking Journey. The book chronicles an extraordinary feat—summiting the highest point in all fifty states in record time—while carrying a much bigger message about courage, health, and the power of giving.From the ER to Altruism in ActionMatt, you spent years as an emergency physician—trained to assess risk, act fast, and save lives under pressure. What first inspired you to donate a kidney to a stranger, and how did that single decision redirect the course of your life?Donor Myths vs. RealityMany people believe kidney donation is dangerous, permanently limiting, or something only done for family. What surprised you most—physically and emotionally—about living with one kidney, and what do you wish the public understood about life after donation?Climbing for a CauseAscending America documents your team's Guinness World Record journey summiting the highest point in every state. How did this extreme physical challenge become a platform for kidney donation advocacy—and what moments on that journey stayed with you the most?The Science of SelflessnessYou've spoken about the neuroscience behind altruism. From your perspective, what does science tell us about why people give so selflessly—and how might understanding that help normalize and expand living kidney donation?Changing the System, Not Just the StoryBeyond individual donors, you're working to change federal policy through efforts to modify the National Organ Transplant Act. What needs to change to eliminate the kidney waitlist—and how can everyday people support this mission?Matt, after everything you've experienced—as a physician, a donor, an athlete, and an advocate—what do you hope people take away about courage, health, and the power of giving?

Send a textAs we have discussed in previous episodes, trained advocates can help protect the rights of kids in IEP meetings and other legal proceedings. Unfortunately, there are times when additional help is required, times when a lawyer is needed. My guest this episode is Paula Yost. Paula is an attorney who is committed to, what she calls, “legal social work,” which is advocating for kids at the intersection of law and education or social service. Paula and I discuss her role, what you can do to avoid needing an attorney, and how you can tell when you do. More information about Paula, her law firm, and her book, Tumbleweeds: How to be an Advocate for Your Children and Yourself in a Failing System, is talkingaboutkids.com. 

Why do so many pelvic rehab clinicians love treating patients… but feel frustrated with their jobs?In this episode we dig into the results from our State of Pelvic Rehab Survey and talk about three things every pelvic PT and OT employee should be advocating for in their workplace.The data was eye-opening.67% of clinicians are doing unpaid documentation.That means many rehab providers are literally working for free so their employer can be reimbursed by insurance.We also found that 79% of clinicians don't have a regular clinical mentor, and 74% receive no paid mentorship time in their job.At the same time, most clinicians also report very small continuing education budgets.You can't grow without support — which means you should have either strong mentorship or a meaningful con-ed budget.And then there's raises.The average raise reported in our survey was just 1.8%.Nearly 81% of clinicians received raises of 3% or less, which means many pelvic rehab providers are effectively taking a pay cut every year after inflation.In this episode we break down three things every employee deserves — and give scripts you can use to advocate for yourself professionally and respectfully.Pick one.Start the conversation.And see what kind of workplace you're really in.About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health. PelvicSanity Physical Therapy (www.pelvicsanity.com) together in 2016. It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.Through Pelvic PT Rising, Nicole has created clinical courses (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical) to help pelvic health providers gain confidence in their skills and provide frameworks to get better patient outcomes.

Following Jesus is sometimes presented as the easy road, a path of safety and happiness. Read the New Testament, and you'll see a much different story: following Jesus is a narrow road that is often marked by pain and persecution. On the night before Jesus was crucified, Jesus gathered with his disciples for the Passover meal so he could prepare them for what was to come. In the face of suffering and death, Jesus said, Do not let your hearts be troubled (John 14:1), and in the following four chapters he taught his disciples how to trust and abide in Him when life hurts the most. Every Sunday in March we will be encouraged by Jesus' words as he teaches us how to remain in him.

John calls believers to take sin seriously while resting in the sure hope that Jesus Christ the righteous is our Advocate and the propitiation for our sins. He then gives a clear test of assurance: those who truly know and abide in Christ will keep his commandments and increasingly walk as he walked. This passage invites honest self-examination—not to crush the struggling saint, but to lead weary sinners back to real grace that forgives, transforms, and bears fruit in worshipful obedience.

Pennsylvania parents and families who have lost loved ones to drug overdoses and addiction say there’s a need for grief support services specifically tailored to this kind of loss. They’re calling on county and state agencies to use settlement money won in national lawsuits against opioid manufacturing companies to fund grief programs. Penn State’s president was the target of pointed questions during a state House appropriations hearing Wednesday. It comes as the university moves forward with plans to close seven campuses including York and Mont Alto. A U.S. Secret Service police officer is charged with sending sexually explicit text messages, photos and videos to a Lancaster County girl, according to police. Cleanup continues following a massive fire at a York County salvage company, two weeks ago.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Having fear can cripple most people from enjoying life. Horse people suffer more than most from fear of horses because what they enjoy most in life are horses. This becomes a paradox that worsens their entire life. However, there are tangents to the fear horse owners have, such as the fear that they are not caring enough for their horses, and, therefore, the horse will suffer from the owner missing a critical aspect of care. This drives owners to do more (and spend more money) than is necessary. Worry is a fear of inadequacy. Charlatans profit from this fear. Most people believe that the thing they fear is the cause, but the truth is, fear comes from within the individual. Fear is also an emotion; energy in motion. When a horse brings energy to a human, the natural response is for the human to raise their energy to match the horse's, creating more energy and escalating the horse to a higher level. The secret is to learn to control your energy and bring it down, which, in most cases, automatically lowers the horses' energy. An essential hack for reducing emotional energy is to lower inflammation in both humans and horses. Another hack is to compartmentalize the sources of your thoughts and feelings in the brain. I discuss these on this week's podcast. ********** Community.TheHorsesAdvocate.com is a place to learn about horses, barns, and farms.

A Cumberland County food manufacturing facility is expanding. Schreiber Foods, located in Shippensburg, announced Tuesday it's embarking on a nearly $133 million expansion at its yogurt and cream cheese plant. Nearly half of the state’s rural counties do not have hospitals with labor and delivery units, according to the Center for Rural Pennsylvania. This reflects a nationwide trend of hospitals closing specialized service lines such as obstetrics. Every year, PA One Book encourages reading by selecting a children's book to help create a shared reading experience statewide. We share this year’s selection. Police in Carlisle continue to investigate the distribution of white supremacist propaganda last weekend. The FBI found explosive residue in a Bucks County storage unit after two men were charged with bringing homemade bombs to a protest outside the home of New York City’s mayor. Pennsylvania is one of only eight states with a closed primary system. That means only voters registered as Democrats or Republicans can cast ballots in their respective parties' spring elections. Advocates hope to open those primaries up to Pennsylvania's unaffiliated voters - a group that numbers more than one million.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send a textWhat if the strongest form of advocacy didn't sound loud, but felt deeply human? We sit down with Whitney Price, founder and executive director of Unpuzzled Parents Connect, to unpack how empathy, clarity, and community can move mountains for families raising neurodiverse kids. From West Virginia's resource deserts to two-hour doctor trips and long insurance battles, Whitney shows how facts over fury and kindness over shame can open doors that frustration often slams shut.We trace the family journey from the shock of an early autism diagnosis to the quiet heroics of daily advocacy: documenting medical necessity, lining up provider letters, and appealing denials with patience and precision. Whitney shares practical tactics for IEP meetings, healthcare pushback, and those tough moments when a child's sensory needs collide with rigid systems. Along the way, she refuses the false choice between being “nice” and being “effective,” proving that compassion is a strategy, not a soft spot.Connection anchors everything. Whitney explains how a simple support group grew into a nonprofit that trains parents, hosts expert voices, and builds bridges through story and practical tools. We spotlight a powerful school initiative—classroom kits that reached 4,000 students—designed to turn Autism Awareness into Acceptance with honest Q&A, people-first language, and invitations to play. And we tackle two stubborn myths head-on: that autistic kids lack empathy, and that gentle parenting is permissive. Whitney offers nuanced, lived insight on both, plus a vital reminder that self-compassion keeps caregivers steady for the long road.If you care about advocacy, inclusion, and family resilience, you'll find hope and actionable steps here—ways to stay firm without hardening, and to build systems that actually work for kids. If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more families can find this support.This podcast is a proud member of the Mayday Media Network — your go-to hub for podcast creators.

In this episode, we explore two important stories from Africa. First, Algeria's parliament has passed a revised law criminalising French colonial rule. The amendments remove earlier demands for an official apology and reparations after the Senate requested the changes. The law still includes demands for compensation for victims of French nuclear tests in Algeria.We then turn to Tourette syndrome, a neurological condition causing involuntary tics that affects millions worldwide. In Africa, the condition is often misunderstood leading to stigma. Advocates are pushing for awareness, early diagnosis and support. We hear from someone in Nigeria about what it's like to live with Tourette syndrome.Presenter : Nkechi Ogbonna Producers: Keikantse Shumba, Basma El Atti and Ayuba Iliya Technical Producer: Jonathan Mwangi Senior Producers: Bella Twine and Blessing Aderogba Editors: Samuel Murunga and Maryam Abdalla

State leaders are reacting to Gov. Tim Walz's proposal to centralize the way Minnesota provides Medicaid services. This comes as part of the Governor's push for anti-fraud changes at the state Department of Human Services. Walz said the current system, which is split among counties, managed care organizations and the state, has become increasingly difficult to administer. He laid out a plan Wednesday that would have DHS take over eligibility determinations for Medicaid programs. He also said the state would take the lead in modernizing what he called an “outdated system.” The plan would need lawmaker approval. It received immediate pushback from both Republicans and Democrats. For reaction from the county perspective, MPR News host Nina Moini talked with Julie Ring, executive director of the Association of Minnesota Counties. She also spoke with a Josh Berg, a board member with the Association of Residential Resources in Minnesota, or ARRM. He advocates for service providers that receive Medicaid funding.

Often, the reason that you struggle to advocate for yourself—or advocate effectively—is that you are the first one to dismiss or minimize what you want. One of the most important pieces of creating the life you want is validating for yourself that your wants and needs matter, and allowing those desires to be important.In this episode, we'll explore several steps you can take to start advocating for yourself more confidently so you can create the life you want. How do you advocate for what you want in your relationships? How do you speak up about what you need in your business or work? I know this can be a difficult skill for many of us to master, and I'm right there with you in this.At its core, advocating for yourself isn't just about the words you use, but having the confidence and certainty that what you're asking for is valid. Maybe you hesitate to advocate for yourself because you're afraid of being too loud or too aggressive. Others struggle because they don't feel confident enough to speak up at all. Wherever you fall, this conversation is about what it takes to advocate for yourself and what becomes possible when you do.You're allowed to have things you need and want, and you're allowed to ask for them. When you strengthen your ability to support yourself emotionally—even through disappointment or difficult outcomes—you build the confidence to keep speaking up for the life you want to create.What you'll learn:Why the first step to being able to effectively advocate for what you want in your life is to get clear about what it is you actually wantHow validating your own desires helps you stop minimizing what you want before you even ask for itWhy building the belief that what you want is possible is a crucial part of learning to advocate for yourselfA simple way to practice speaking up so it feels safer in your body and nervous systemWhy being with yourself emotionally is a skill worth building when it comes to creating the life you wantYou can read the full show notes here.Don't forget to register for my 1-day coaching skill mastery workshop HERE!Are you craving a moment to breathe, to reconnect with yourself, and to remember what's truly possible for you?

Advocating For Yourself is Self-Respect, Not Entitlement What if the life you want is waiting on the other side of one powerful decision, the decision to advocate for yourself? In this episode of the Be a Warrior Podcast, I dive into something that took me years to truly understand and learn how to practice: speaking up for myself. Advocating for yourself sounds simple, but in reality, it can be incredibly difficult especially when you're navigating the medical world, recovering from trauma, or learning to live life in a completely new way after an amputation. If you've been following along with my recent episodes, you know that my word of the year is “trust.” Trusting the process. Trusting the journey. Trusting that even when things feel uncertain or uncomfortable, there is still growth happening beneath the surface. I've placed the word trust all around my home-on my bathroom mirror, near my bed, and in my office, so I see it every single day. It's a reminder that the goals I'm working toward aren't short-term. They're marathon goals that require patience and faith in the process. But this week, I realized something important. Trust and advocacy go hand in hand. As an above-knee amputee, my journey through the medical world has been long and complicated. Before my amputation, I went through years of knee surgeries and saw nearly ten different doctors over a five-year period. In those early years, I did what many of us do, I trusted everything my doctors told me. I assumed they knew best, and I rarely questioned the direction we were taking. Now, to be clear, those doctors truly did their best. My complications were due to hyperscarring and my body's unique response to surgery, not a lack of effort from the medical team. But what I didn't realize early on was that trusting the professionals didn't mean I shouldn't also trust myself. Learning to advocate for myself took time. It came through experience, frustration, trial and error, and eventually learning to listen to my own body. Because here's the truth: you know your body better than anyone else. Doctors understand the body in general, but they don't live in your body. They don't feel your pain, your discomfort, your limitations, or your goals. That insight only comes from you. This lesson becomes incredibly important when you're an amputee. One of the most important relationships in an amputee's life is the one you have with your prosthetist. Your prosthetic leg isn't just equipment, it's the tool that allows you to move through the world. And one thing every amputee learns sooner or later is this: if the socket isn't right, nothing else matters. You can have the most advanced knee or ankle technology available, but if the socket doesn't fit properly, your mobility will suffer. Your comfort will suffer. Your ability to live your life fully will suffer. That's why clear communication and persistence are so important. Advocating means taking an active role in improving your life by clearly communicating your needs, your goals, and your concerns. It means explaining where pain occurs, when it happens, and how it affects your movement. Sometimes your prosthetist has to troubleshoot based on what you tell them because they can only observe from the outside. Every amputee is different. Even two people with the same level of amputation will have completely different experiences. Our bodies, our pain tolerance, our lifestyles, and our goals all vary. So if something isn't working, we can't be afraid to say it.   My Team of professionals over the years. Take time to talk with them, communicate clearly, don’t settle. My PT’s who helped me prepare for amputation. My Prosthetist who has my back always and knows what I want to accomplish in life.   My plastic surgeon who performed a TMR a year post amputation because the pain was too much!   Sometimes we hesitate because we feel like the professional already tried their best. We don't want to seem difficult or demanding. But when we settle instead of speaking up, we often end up limiting our own lives. The goal isn't to take your prosthetic leg off halfway through the day because it hurts too much. The goal is to put it on in the morning and live your life fully until the evening. Advocating for yourself isn't just about medical care, though. It also applies to the relationships and environments you allow in your life. I often tell my kids that friends come into our lives for seasons and reasons. Some friendships last forever, while others naturally fade as we grow and change. Advocating for yourself means recognizing when a relationship is supportive and when it might be holding you back. That doesn't mean you abandon people carelessly. Healthy relationships require balance-a give and take. But it's also okay to acknowledge when something no longer aligns with who you are becoming. During this episode, I share a quote from a book called “The Rise of Me” by Kristina Macura that really resonated with me. One line in particular stood out: “There's power in saying, this isn't enough for me.” That statement doesn't come from entitlement. It comes from self-respect. You are allowed to grow. You are allowed to raise your standards. You are allowed to take up space in your own life. Settling doesn't make you loyal, it often just makes you smaller than you were meant to be. At the same time, advocacy also requires self-reflection. We have to ask ourselves if we're giving as much as we're asking for. Are we supporting the people who support us? Are we maintaining balance in our relationships? Growth isn't about burning bridges. It's about recognizing when it's time to move forward while still honoring the people who walked part of the journey with you. Life as an amputee, and honestly life in general, is rarely comfortable. But growth happens when we challenge ourselves. Whether it's skiing down a run that scares you, trying something new, or speaking up in a room where you once stayed quiet, progress comes from stepping outside of what feels safe. So wherever you are in your journey right now, I want you to remember this: Knowing you deserve the best isn't entitlement, it's self-respect. You are valuable. You are capable. And you are stronger than you think. Advocate for yourself. Raise your standards. Build the team and the life that helps you thrive. Because the life you're dreaming about isn't impossible, it simply requires the courage to believe you're worth it. Have an amazing week ahead, And as always, warriors, Be healthy! Be happy! And most importantly, be YOU!!!!   Much love,
