Podcasts about advocating

In this Friday Field Notes, Ryan explains why so many men have lost the ability to speak up for themselves and how cultural conditioning has silenced masculine confidence and clarity. He covers the cost of silence, how lack of self advocacy leads to resentment and instability, and why reclaiming your voice is a foundational leadership skill. Ryan also provides practical language men can use in relationships, work, friendships, and with themselves to rebuild confidence and assertiveness. This episode is a direct challenge to the mindset that staying quiet keeps the peace. Ryan shows that speaking up is not selfish. It is responsible and necessary if you want to protect, provide, and preside for the people you care about.

When Kyndal Parks' grandfather died on Black Friday - the day after Thanksgiving – she lost one of her biggest supporters and confidants. While navigating her grief, Kyndal was also navigating life as a college student where she often felt unseen in her grief by faculty and the wider institution. What began as a class assignment turned into a powerful audio piece about loss, legacy, and the urgent need for grief-informed spaces on college campuses, particularly at HBCUs where collective trauma, silence, and resilience intertwine.  In this conversation, Kyndal shares about her grandfather's extraordinary life - from his childhood in the 1940s, to living with a disability, to his time as a Black Panther, a gardener, a traveler, and the steady source of love that shaped her into the person she is today. She talks about the traditions they built together, how her grief shows up even from 2,000 miles away, and why vulnerability and community care are essential if we want to build environments where students who are grieving feel supported.   Kyndal also explores the cultural and historical patterns of grief in Black communities, the pressure to "push through," and her vision for a world where grief is met with connection, not silence.  We discuss: What made Kyndal's grandfather such an influential figure  How his death reshaped her understanding of family, holidays, and identity What grief looked like at her college, and within her family and community Why she created her audio piece and what she hopes listeners take from it  The need for vulnerability, community support, and grief-informed care at HBCUs and beyond  How her grandfather continues to guide her today  Check out News Ambassadors, the program that helped connect us with Kyndal and her audio piece.           

Citizen Warrior is an autobiographical account of Gene Merritt's lifelong efforts to improve Wilmington — work that was at times contentious, creative, and even inspired.Merritt fought to change the downtown nightlife scene, pushing for liquor-by-the-drink while also evicting topless bars and sex shops. His next battle was an industrial coal pile planned where the modern-day riverwalk and concert venue exist. Then there was the struggle to bring 1-40 to Wilmington, and later, to keep the county from selling its hospital. And, of course, there were many other challenges along the way. Merrit joined us along with co-author John Meyer, who helped cover these stories as a veteran StarNews reporter and editor.

Melanie, mom to 12-year-old Masen, shares the unexpected path to her son's diagnosis with Homocystinuria (HCU) after a routine eye exam revealed something "off." What followed was months of uncertainty, a rare diagnosis few providers had even heard of, a crash course in low-protein diets and metabolic formulas, and two back-to-back eye surgeries to prevent further damage.

Mike Lomas and Glenn Wiggle are back with a no-BS breakdown of the biggest political and economic messes of the week.

They hit election integrity, judicial accountability, failed progressive policies in major cities, and the growing frustration with both parties' refusal to act. Plus, they wrap with why financial planning software actually matters and why accountability for COVID-era failures is long overdue.(00:03:11) Environmental Challenges: The Illusion of Solvability(00:05:19) Contradictory Funding in Climate-Vulnerable Regions(00:08:44) Ensuring Fair and Transparent Democratic Elections(00:22:22) Judicial Accountability for Releasing Dangerous Offenders(00:23:06) Releasing Dangerous Offenders in Urban Areas(00:31:12) Debate Over Property Taxes and Gas Tax(00:36:33) Accountability Platform for Judicial Decisions(00:43:45) Tailored Financial Guidance Through Planning Software(00:48:05) COVID Vaccine Trial Accountability: Crimes Against Humanity(00:48:22) Advocating for a Third Party Solution

Yesss people welcome back to another FairDinkum episode! This week's episode we have none other, than Mohamed Semra, aka the NEW mayor of Maribyrnong! We spoke with Mohammed about stepping into leadership, dealing with identity and pressure of what real representation looks like & how we can break out of community cycles!

In this episode, we chat with the brilliant and brave Caiti, who takes us through the emotional chaos that is pregnancy, miscarriage, and trying again when life has already knocked the wind out of you. She talks about falling pregnant for the first time - the excitement, the dreams, the absolute gut-punch heartbreak of losing her son, Miles - and the way grief seeped into every corner of her life, including her relationship with her wife.Caiti opens up about the complicated dance of navigating grief as a same-sex couple, where both partners are hurting but not always in the same way, at the same time, or with the same intensity. She speaks honestly about the guilt, the questioning, the feeling of her body having somehow betrayed her, and the loneliness that can creep in even when you're surrounded by love.We also dive into the world of IVF - the needles, the hormones, the hope, the fear, the spreadsheets of appointments, and the emotional whiplash of trying to plan for a future when you're still carrying the weight of a past loss. And because this is TWGGEF, we talk about the absolutely essential act of advocating for yourself in a healthcare system that doesn't always get it, especially when it comes to pregnancy loss and same sex families.As always, the conversation circles back to community - the people, the spaces, the podcasts (hello there) that make this nightmare ride a little less isolating. Caiti's courage in sharing her story reminds us that breaking the silence breaks the stigma, and that speaking our truths helps someone else feel less alone.Key TakeawaysCaiti's first pregnancy began smoothly, making the loss even more devastating.Miscarriage can trigger crushing guilt and feelings of not being “enough”.Grief looks different for every partner, and that mismatch can be incredibly hard.Advocating for yourself in the healthcare system is essential, especially after trauma.Open, honest communication is vital for surviving impossible moments in relationships.Pregnancy loss can be profoundly isolating, even with a strong support system.Community spaces and resources - including podcasts - can bring comfort and connection.IVF is a complex, emotional rollercoaster, but it also offers genuine hope.Medical environments need far more sensitivity and awareness around pregnancy loss.Sharing her story has helped Caiti feel connected, supported, and part of a wider healing community.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation. We're all about bringing people together who are going through the tough stuff — baby loss, infertility, and everything in between — and making sure no one has to face it alone. Our community is full of honesty, compassion, and real talk, offering support, understanding, and hope when it's needed most.

Aaron Welty: The Heroics of WeaknessAaron Welty grew up with his eyes on the stars — not just the ones overhead, but the ones in stories. Galaxies far, far away, rings of power, and caped crusaders filled his imagination. But while most kids left those adventures behind when the movie ended, Aaron carried them with him. For him, those tales weren't just entertainment — they were roadmaps pointing the way toward courage, sacrifice, and a bigger purpose.From the very start, Aaron's life has looked a bit like a hero's journey — not with blasters or superpowers, but with quiet strength and a steady resolve shaped by life's challenges.He recently shared more about that journey on the Cedarville Stories podcast, opening up about how God has worked through his weakness to create something beautiful and unexpected.Aaron was born 10 weeks early and diagnosed with cerebral palsy not long after. That alone could have written a different kind of story. But he kept going one chapter at a time: first as a student at Cedarville University, then as a staffer on Capitol Hill, and now as a speaker and author of a nearly finished trilogy of memoirs.His interest in public service took root back in the seventh grade, when a lesson on U.S. presidents sparked something inside him. Friends told him he'd make a great president someday, and instead of brushing it off, Aaron dared to believe them. That dream found real footing at Cedarville, where he studied public administration and graduated in 2005.He packed up for Washington, D.C. soon after, spending years working behind the scenes on Capitol Hill and later with the Department of Transportation. His focus? Advocating for disability inclusion and making sure workspaces welcomed everyone.“It was about affirming the dignity of work,” Aaron said. “Even if only 1% were affected, it mattered to that 1%.”But Aaron's impact isn't just in policy papers and meetings. Over the years, he's mentored high school and college students, often connecting with them through summer leadership programs. He doesn't shy away from the hard questions — in fact, he invites them. And more often than not, he draws on the stories that shaped him growing up.From Star Wars to Lord of the Rings to Marvel's sprawling universe, Aaron sees more than special effects — he sees lessons on calling, identity, and the grit it takes to keep going.“These stories aren't just for fun,” he said. “They're invitations — to think, to wrestle, to become.”Aaron knows a thing or two about wrestling. He's lived through pain and loss and disappointment. But rather than wish those things away, he's learned to see them differently.“God didn't take the pain away,” he said. “He gave me perseverance instead.”It's something he calls the “heroics of weakness” — a way of seeing suffering not as something to escape but as the place where purpose can be born. “So often, it's the thing we wish God would take away that ends up being the thing He uses most,” he said.One of the pictures Aaron clings to is from Scripture — the idea of fragile “jars of clay” carrying something far greater inside. That's how he sees his life: breakable, yes, but brimming with meaning.“You're not just here to be entertained,” he said. “You're here to engage — to become who you were meant to be.”And that's exactly what Aaron is doing. In a world chasing fame and titles, he's living something deeper — a quiet legacy of perseverance, presence, and purpose.https://share.transistor.fm/s/03c5d342https://youtu.be/Vv_OYW-paE4

Today:Rickey McGee was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the shooting death of a convenience store clerk who was killed during a robbery in the Fenway. For 28 years, McGee maintained his innocence. Behind bars, he co-founded the Harriet Tubman Project in 2021, which brings together incarcerated people fighting wrongful convictions.In October he was released from prison, and thanks to McGee's own advocacy and the Innocence Program at the Public Defender's Office, prosecutors officially dropped the murder case after new evidence weakened the testimony of the prosecution's main witness. McGee joined Jim and Margery in Studio 3 on Monday with his partner Jacqueline Fonseca, who works for the New England Innocence Project.

In this conversation, we sit down with Jeremy Thompson and Ian Boeye from the Special Operations Association of America (SOAA) — an organization fighting to ensure America's elite warfighters are never forgotten, neglected, or left behind after their service. SOAA is doing what most people don't realize still needs to be done: • Advocating for Special Operations forces in Washington • Mobilizing rescue operations in crisis zones • Supporting medical and psychological recovery for veterans • Rebuilding the pipeline of American service and leadership This isn't politics — it's patriotism. This is about love of country, brotherhood, and the belief that America is still worth defending. If you know someone who has served — share this episode with them today. Let them know they are seen. They are appreciated. They are not alone.

What does it take to change an entire industry? Thirty years ago, Jomo Tariku, then an industrial design student, noticed something profound missing in his university library: contemporary African furniture designers. This observation sparked a decades-long journey of persistence and vision. I sit down with Jomo to discuss his path from sketching designs in his garage while working other jobs to having his celebrated work featured in The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the film Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. He shares how his father's incredible story as a refugee gave him the hubris to persist through a 27-year wait for recognition. Tune in to learn how he translates his heritage (from the horns of the Nyala antelope to the powerful symbolism of the Afro-comb) into functional, modern art. Tune in to this story about patience, process, and the fight to redefine the creative canon.

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Andra McHugh, founder of Eczema Kids and host of the Eczema Kids Podcast, to explore how food-as-medicine can transform eczema from a lifelong battle into a healing journey. Andra shares her personal story of navigating her children's severe eczema and how it led her to uncover the powerful connections between gut health, inflammation, and the skin.

Episode 2720 - Vinnie Tortorich welcomes Dr. Tony Hampton to discuss focusing on policy, advocating for change, use of GLP-1s, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/11/focusing-on-policy-episode-2720 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Focusing On Policy Dr. Tony Hampton has been a guest on the show several times—he has a long history of advocating in the low-carb space. (2:00) Being policy-focused rather than party-focused in governmental policy should be the focus. (8:30) Dr. Hampton describes his career focus on improving metabolic health, including how to incentivize doctors to help people discontinue medications and reduce the cost of care. (12:00) RFK Jr. may not always speak clearly to the mainstream public in a way that resonates. Dr. Hampton still faces challenges in the mainstream medical space, where other doctors struggle to embrace certain concepts; for example, many of his peers continue to have trouble accepting the idea that saturated fat is not harmful. (14:00) Despite the benefits of a low-carb or ketogenic diet and its positive effects on things like diabetes and other metabolic diseases, it is still not accepted by many doctors. Apparently, they didn't get the memo! (16:00) They discuss food deserts and their effects on the community. (21:00) Advocating and Taking Action Dr. Hampton describes a current concept in healthcare being initiated by Advocate Trinity. (22:00) Much of it is educating people about food and lifestyle, and helping them to change their habits for the better (28:00) Vinnie admits he is not a fan of GLP-1s, but he understands how they can be a valuable tool for teaching and helping people adopt new habits. (31:00) They discuss the negative aspects of GLP-1s. The muscle loss associated with GLP-1 is more pronounced than that observed with natural weight loss. Muscle is essential for so many reasons, including boosting insulin sensitivity. (38:00) It is the metabolic engine of the body! Increasing muscle mass prevents you from becoming fragile. (38:00) Dr. Hampton offers two programs: NEST, which stands for Nutrition, Exercise, Less Stress/More Sleep, and How You Think/Less Trauma. ROPE is for Relationships, Organism (avoiding bad/adding good), Pollutants, and Emotions.

This week's featured wedding planning meeting is an overview of how to formulate a detailed wedding vision - and equally as important, learning how to articulate and advocate for that vision with those who are helping you plan.   Here's an overview of the specific scenario we'll be discussing: "How can we reign in our wedding planner?  Our venue includes a coordinator for the rehearsal and wedding day, and initially I was pleasantly surprised by how accommodating and informative she is.  Since the initial relief and excitement of finding and booking the perfect venue, we're starting to realize the huge task ahead of us in terms of booking EVERYTHING (the venue comes with nothing set up, so we need to choose tables, chairs, place settings, dance floor, bar, basically everything.)  At this point, I feel completely overwhelmed by her ideas & suggestions, and I'm starting to worry that the wedding she has envisioned for us does not line up with our vision OR our budget.  How do I reign in our wedding planner and rest easy knowing that we are on the same page?" In my years of experience, it's not just the wedding planners who need to reigned in ... often times it's also the moms, bridesmaids, aunts, cousins ... feeling familiar? We're going to cover all these scenarios in today's episode. You'll also enjoy a clip of exclusive audio, "Creating Your Wedding Vision". This exercise alone is one of the most valuable wedding planning tools I have to helping you create a celebration that truly honors your priorities & values. Tune in for so much more!
