Ever heard someone say the following...“My PCOS got so bad, a cyst burst! I had to go to the ER”“PCOS is so painful, when I do get my periods, they're so bad”“My doctor/OBGYN/specialist said my ovaries had cysts but I don't have any PCOS, I guess I just have a mild form?”… or something similar?Did you know that PCOS, ovarian cysts and cystic ovaries are all DIFFERENT things? If you said no, don't worry! I'll admit, when I was first understanding the world of PCOS, I didn't know there was a difference either.You can have all three, a combination of two of them, just one of them or none at all. But time and time again, I hear people confusing them. If we don't understand the differentiation between them, we can end up down a rabbit warren of doing things that aren't actually best serving us.I know they all sound very similar, so you're probably wondering where the differences lie! Well, I've decided it's about time I sit down and record an actual episode about the difference between PCOS, cystic ovaries and ovarian cysts. So that's what today's episode of The PCOS Nutritionist Podcast is all about! I'll be going through the definition of each of these issues, the differences, the similarities and what to do next.So the next time you hear someone getting confused, direct them to this episode!

Masks are all the rage these days - just one short year ago we never would have imagined what a hot topic they would become. However, most people wear another kind of mask, one that's invisible. And that's what this episode is about.We wear a mask in front of others, and almost everyone wears one on social media. Men, women, children, adults, teens, we all wear invisible masks at times. In this episode, I uncover:What wearing an invisible mask does to our emotionsHow people wear masks on social media contributes - and what it does to usThe mask we wear when someone asks us how we areWhy we wear these masksWhat we're hiding under our masksQuestions to ask before you post or respondHow to take off your maskIf you're ready to take off your mask and would like some help navigating that experience, reach out to me on IG or email me at info@lorilatimer.com to schedule a free discovery call.

Relationships can bring out the best in us… and all of our fears as well. This episode is for anyone with anxieties and fears around relationships. Quotes to remember: “A relationship is not the answer to your problems in any way. It’s a mirror to show you more of who you are.”“Within fear is an opportunity to discover just how powerful you are.” “It is not the absence of fear that defines a successful relationship; it’s the ability to move through that fear, to look at it and face it and move past it.” Takeaways:We will all feel fear in a relationship, and it’s not a sign that the relationship isn’t rightEveryone has fears and a relationship will bring them to the surfaceFear has a million faces and shows itself in myriad waysFear is our mind’s response to being vulnerableIt’s important to recognize fear and air it out rather than avoid itLove is the antithesis of fear; it is being open to anything that could happenThere will never be a time when we have defeated all of our fears and no longer feel fearIn a loving relationship, each individual is a willing participant in looking at themselves and who they areWhy be in a relationship if it’s resonating with the energy of worry and doubt the entire time, a fear of it ending? Rejection is not painful--self-rejection isThere is no such thing as a perfect relationship without fearsBeing in relationship is one of the toughest things to do, periodWhat you’ll learn:Why we feel afraid in relationshipsA characterization of fearHow to acknowledge fear and move through it in a relationshipTactics to jolt yourself out of the fearThe purpose of relationshipMentioned on the podcast:Self-Love episodeTHIS WEEK’S CHALLENGE: Identify a lesson in a past or present relationship, and what it taught you about yourself.

In Episode 114 I sit down with Emily Manoogian, PhD from the Panda lab at Salk Institute to learn about how we can improve our health by nurturing our our circadian rhythms. Emily and her team are considered world leaders in the field of science known as 'chronobiology' and have published several studies (and many others currently under way) investigating how the timing of our meals effects our health.In this episode we specifically cover:What circadian rhythms areWhy we need circadian rhythmsWhat circadian disruption isWhat social jet-lag isLearning from shift workersHow external cues such as light exposure and meal timing affect our circadian rhythmsTime restricted feeding (TRF) and what Emily's research has identified so farThe difference between TRF and fastingWhy Emily recommends having more calories in the first half of your dayWhat to do if you are someone who routinely has dinner very late (e.g many Europeans)Lots of practical information that you can put into playFuture research Emily would like to conductand much moreAs I note at the beginning of this episode in the introduction. While the time restricted eating that we talk about is far from an extreme protocol, if you suffer from an eating disorder and find the subject of meal timing in any way to be triggering then this may not be the best episode for you, which is totally fine! You can just pick the show back up next episode, and come back to this episode in the future if you feel the timing is more appropriate for you. NOTE: Unfortunately the audio quality of this episode is not as high as I would ordinarily like. While I much prefer having these conversations in person (and hope to get back to that format soon) with COVID-19 I've needed to record remotely in order to continue having such informative guests on the show.Resources:My Circadian clockEmily's Tedx TalkContinue the conversation:We would love to hear from youEmily Manoogian, PhD: Twitter.Simon Hill: Instagram and TwitterMy Book:My book is coming out early 2021 published with Penguin - I cannot wait to share with you.

In this podcast, Sharon and Phil Callen explain:What habits and behaviours of readers areWhy are they important?How do we know which are the most useful habits and behaviours?How do we get them going in the classroom?How we develop the ‘three selves’ as a reader - self-directed, self-motivated, self-regulatedLearning about what good readers do makes reading accessible to every child, every day.GOOD READERS READ A LOT OF JUST RIGHT BOOKS:Lots of practice, lots of access, lots of success. Classroom practice to develop the habit of daily reading includes creating a culture of reading and helping to build the daily habit of reading, such as:Classroom library for easy access to booksTime for reading carved out everydayEvery child every day should have the opportunity to read something they choose, that they can understand and that they can read with accuracy. This is a habit of good readersEvery child has an entry point with ‘just right’ booksRead aloud is an entry point for young readersEncourage voluntary reading - choosing to read, reading at school, outside of school, seeing it as part of what they doWe build up accuracy, understanding, fluencyForming the habits and behaviours is the first phase - with the help of an enabling adult - every child, every dayGOOD READERS ARE MOTIVATED TO READ AND TO GROW AS A READER (GROWTH MINDSET):Interest, confidence and dedication.Classroom practices: Read aloud, introduce students to many books, authors, genres, information, vocabulary that is beyond their independent level of reading but which extends them into a rich world of habits and behaviours they can take into their own reading. Good teachers use Read and Shared Text to demonstrate to students what good readers do, whilst engaging in an authentic reading process. Meanwhile readers are practising many of the strategies of good readers with the teacher as they listen to/view the text, giving them an opportunity to begin practicing these behaviours.Anchoring these reading behaviours on a Good Reader Anchor chart enables students to see the importance of these behaviours and to be reminded of what they can practice/give a go as they read independently.Book tasting and book blessings given by students/ teachers also opens the world into more books, building interest and confidence to make informed selections. With every child experiencing an entry point, this develops a growth mindset about what it is to be a good reader. Good readers are active: thinkers, questioners, picture makers.GOOD READERS USE PROBLEM SOLVING, WITH A RANGE OF STRATEGIES:Good readers are active readers - they have an extensive range of strategies they draw on as they are reading. Classroom practices that establish these behaviours:Show students what good readers do as they read extended and continuous text (If we teach strategies outside of extended, continuous text, we fail to enable readers to grow the skills and strategies they need to read extended/continuous text, which is the very goal of reading).Modelling good reader strategies includes:Word solvingMonitoring and correcting/fixing up their reading when it doesn’t make senseAdjusting fluency Comprehending the text (visualising, predicting, questioning, summarising, inferring, setting a purpose for reading)Vocabulary learning and its influence on comprehensionFluency developmentResponding to reading - personal thoughts to discuss with others, recording some in a readers journal/notebookMetacognition, being aware of what they are doing as a reader and therefore developing self-regulation and self-directionBackground knowledge - bringing what they have developed and what they know, their experience of other texts, knowing when to use particular strategies and processes.GOOD READERS RESPOND TO FEEDBACKGood authentic teaching means good teachers will learn a lot about the needs of their readers by listening to them read and providing next steps to developing reading behaviours whilst they are reading continuous texts. This further develops the behaviours of good readers, as readers learn to apply an ever increasing range of strategies. Good teachers also notice when a group of students are ready to be taught a new reading behaviour or are close to consolidating one, or simply need more practice. Close eyes on the habits and behaviours that readers are developing is what builds success, confidence, interest, motivation and dedication to continuing on a thriving path to the joys and insights that reading bring to us.Actions are anchored in child language on charts in the classroom.Conferring with children is powerful teaching.Children need to be able to name the action.GOOD READERS TALK ABOUT THEIR READINGGood readers love to talk about and share what they are reading. Reading is a very social experience - afterall books are published so that more than one person can access the story! So our experiences with story and books are meant to be shared.Classroom practices that give readers opportunities to talk about their reading include:Turn and Tell after reading  - 60 seconds (What I liked, what I didn't like (emotions), what puzzled me, what patterns I am noticing)Book recommendationsMost underutilised comprehension strategyIn summary – the themes today have been:Enabling all students to develop the habits and behaviours of good readers.Allowing all children to be problem solvers in their reading – using a range of strategies.How to define the habits and behaviours and how to let students in on what these are and how to use them effectively.NOTE: Watch how good reader strategies also play out for your students as writers.Key questions:What is a good tool that Sharon has used with teachers in classrooms? Mt Barker South Teachers have turned their learning intentions into Good Reader statements - ensuring that they are teaching good reader actions, teaching good reader behaviours, building a growth mindset, motivation, reading habits, practice and interest.What’s a tantalising text that Sharon has used recently in a classroom? Going to the Volcano by Andy Stanton and illustrated by Miguel Ordenez (Pronounced OR DAWN EZ). It's a fun rhyming picture book text for two voices or more. Fun to read with your class, for readers to read in pairs and a great model for writing your own ‘GOING TO’ story. We’ll demonstrate, Sharon as the voice of Jane, whilst Phil is the voice of Dwayne. SH: Going to the Volcano by Andy Stanton and Miguel OrdonezPH: Going off with Jane-o to look at the volcano! SH: Going off with Jane-o to look at the volcano!PH: Walking down the lane-o to look at the volcano!SH: Walking down the lane-o to look at the volcano!PH: Riding the Great Dane-o to look at the volcano!SH: Riding the Great Dane-o to look at the volcano!PH: Sitting on the train-o to look at the volcano!SH: Sitting on the train-o to look at the volcano!PH: Jumping on the plane-o to look at the volcano!SH: Jumping on the plane-o to look at the volcano!PH: Flying off to Spain-o to look at the volcano!SH: Flying off to Spain-o to look at the volcano!PH: Splashing through the rain-o to look at the volcano!SH: Splashing through the rain-o to look at the volcano!PH: Going up the crane-o to look at the volcano!SH: Climbing down the chain-o to look at the volcano!PAUSE 3, 2,1 PH and SH: BOOM!PH: In a lot of pain-o because of the volcano!SH: In a lot of pain-o because of the volcano!PH: NEVER do it again-o.

In Episode 8 of Business Breakthrough Thursdays, Ken Cheo shares his secrets to business development success on LinkedIn. The world's largest professional social network, LinkedIn is the perfect place to grow and nurture important connections, before, during and after the sale. Ken will give you the understanding and the techniques you need to get the most out of this great business resource. Learn:Why LinkedIn isn't just the #1 professional social network, but the best place to grow your business What the benefits of LinkedIn business development areWhy using a professional headshot is critical to getting those first connectionsHow to write a killer LinkedIn headline for your profile What to include in your "about me" sectionWhen it's time to upgradeHow to use the 80/20 rule to reach the right peopleThe three best ways to grow your business on LinkedIn, according to Ken, are:Use LinkedIn powerful free and premium tools to find the right people to connect with, and use your connection request message the right way to introduce yourself and start a conversation. LinkedIn is the super high-quality email list that you could never afford (or even find). Use all of LinkedIn's communication tools like messaging, InMail, groups, company pages, updates and articles to get your message in front of these highly qualified connections. Then use multiple message formats: text, links, surveys, images, video. Find what works for you, which of course ultimately is what works best for your connections and prospects.Don't treat LinkedIn as a cold-calling channel for your business — treat it as an opportunity to establish credibility, and eventually, thought leadership. When they're ready to buy, they'll think of you first.Some excerpts from the great conversation between Ken and host Dave Fionda:"LinkedIn is the biggest professional network in the world. There's no question about it. 706 million people are on LinkedIn, and it's going to a billion really fast.... Every Fortune 500 company is there.... 75% of ... corporate buyers use social media and 50% of them say they use LinkedIn.... 76% of [those] say they have a positive image of people they're connected to.""[Who] knows if there's ever going to be another trade show, [but] everybody who is anybody [is on Linkedin now].""[On] social media, it doesn't matter which platform you're using. It's a vehicle to develop a relationship. Once you develop that relationship, then you've earned the right to take it into a conversation outside of the platform, and that's what LinkedIn enables you to do: ... connect, build a relationship, and take it outside email or phone.""It's not about what you did. They don't care about what you did. It's about what you're going to do [for them]. So, put in there who you help, how you help them, and what key results they can expect from you."Ken Cheo, is the President of Our Sales Coach. Prior to forming Our Sales Coach, Ken had been training and coaching business owners and salespeople since 2006 as the owner of a Winfree Business Growth Advisors practice. He had enjoyed over 20 years of sales and sales management experience with consistent results growing engineering service and construction companies in the Greater Boston area at rates between 25% and 100%. His broad experience includes assistance in hiring key staff members, coaching and training salespeople, sales, marketing, and new business development. Ken Cheo has participated in speaking engagements and seminars on a variety of sales and marketing related subjects. His goal over the next five years is to empower 100 local small to medium-sized business owners to achieve their corporate vision.

In Episode 7 of Business Breakthrough Thursdays, our regular show host Dave Fionda shares his tips on how entrepreneurial CEOs and tech founders can grow and hone their business development skills—even if they're not good at the "hard sell." Business development isn’t about selling, he reminds us. It's about identifying, closing and nurturing the key relationships you need to acquire many customers.Learn:Why founders and owners need to learn or improve business development skillsWhat the three most important sales and business development skills that owner and founders need to focus on areWhy sales and business development aren't the same thing, and what the differences areHow technical founders and owners can become great business developers, even if it's "not who they are"What steps can owners and founders take to develop these skillsAre you a natural-born sales person? If not, don't despair: Dave tells us you can still become a kick-butt business development professional. Business owners have to wear many hats—sales, customer service, marketer, human resource, finance and others. Many times critical business development skills for founders is overlooked. But business development isn’t about selling. Sales is about acquiring one customer. Business development is about identifying, closing and nurturing the key relationships you need to acquire many customers. Selling (closing) is part of that equation, but it's not the only part.So how do business leaders without a sales background learn to build and hone their ability to close the deal? First, don't forget that these are learnable skills, not inherent traits or personality characteristics. The three most important skills that owners and technical founders need to develop, according to Dave, are:Never give up. Persistence is the biggest skill. And this is a skill that technical founders have in spades. Learn how to listen. Business development is 80% listening and 20% speaking. Active listening is a learnable skill. Learn how to build trust. Your prospect doesn't necessarily need to know how you're going to solve their business challenge—they just need to be confident that you're the person who can best solve it.Sales skills, Dave argues, will get you one sale. Business development skills will get you many sales. He gives a specific example from his own experience—how he was able to turn on his business development skills to get a deal made that launched a successful overseas business where 14 previous attempts had failed. Dave is a 35-year sales and business development veteran, a CPA, author, mentor and, most importantly, a technical founder himself. Dave’s entire career has been focused on helping companies grow and be more successful. He loves helping companies succeed. Dave founded and grew 5 ventures in his career and sold three of them successfully. He is a mentor for the Mass Challenge startup competition and has also taught at three of the leading business universities in the US ( Babson, Northeastern and Bentley) and has presented keynotes and executive briefings all over the U.S. and Canada. Dave received his BS in Accounting from Bentley University and an MS in Technology Commercialization from Northeastern University.

The Buddha taught that, to be free, we need to investigate every part of our human experience with an intimate and mindful attention. This includes emotions.Emotions aren’t “bad” in and of themselves.It’s what we do when we feel them – the thoughts that ensue, the actions we take as a result – not the emotion itself, that often causes our suffering.Practicing a mindfulness of emotions helps us to learn about ourselves and our mind. It helps us not get hooked by a difficult feeling, or the buffers we turn to – like overdrinking, overworking, over-Netflixing...etc – to keep from feeling it.When we can be mindful of our emotions, we can be less reactive And that is when we have true freedom – the freedom to choose how we want to respond, instead of slipping into our default mode.For many people, the idea of being with an emotion can seem daunting.Mindfulness enables us to take advantage of what Tara Bennett-Goleman calls “the magic quarter-second” – the space between an impulse and an action.By being present with an emotion instead of indulging in the stream of thoughts that stems from the emotion, we can use this magic 1/4 second to create a different response than we normally would.We can stop the spiral of thoughts that might exacerbate an emotion by simply being present with the emotion itself.So how do we practice mindfulness of emotions?The first step is pausing to recognize that we are experiencing an emotion.The second step is choosing to be present with our moment-to-moment experience.We need to recognize the emotions with an accepting, curious and kind attention, without getting hooked; without attachment or aversion.The result of this presence becomes the capacity to release habitual reactivity, to respond to our life circumstances more skillfully, with a wise heart, and to step out of the looping thought patterns we fall into when we get hooked.Because the thoughts are what create the drama, what keeps the emotion hanging around longer than it needs to, what keeps us stuck and spiraling.Why is this importantEmotions occupy a lot of our energy and mind space. And the truth is, our feelings show up in our body – whether we are aware of this connection or not.I see so many patients that have physical manifestations of their psychological and emotional experiences; people whose deep trauma has led directly to any number of illnesses or diseases.Doing the work to be present with your emotions now can help you get to know your body and better manage your daily stressors so that you may be able to avoid other serious health issues down the road.In reality, it takes a strong dose of courage to really be with your emotions. This work is not for the faint of heart, but you can do thisRemember: the point is not to get rid of feelings, or to have some notion of the “right” feelings.Some people think equanimity means not feeling any emotion. But emotions are an amazing part of being human!We get to feel joy and feel horny, happy, connection and joy.We get to feel sadness and grief, anger and jealousy.ALL the feels.In this episode, I offer exercises for beginning to live in a more conscious relation to your myriad feelings, and give some tools for how to do this with loving self-awareness.So I invite you to join me.Learn to let your emotions season you, not rule you. Because when we can be with any emotion, we are truly free.In This Episode You’ll Learn:What the four foundations of mindfulness areWhy learning to be with your emotions will help you avoid unwanted habitual reactions – like yelling at a loved one, worrying too much, or bufferingHow to break painful patterns of thought-looping and anxiety spiraling by taking advantage of the “magic quarter-second”Why describing how the sensations of a feeling appear physically in your body is one step you can take to be more present with your emotionsTools on how to pause and recognize whether an emotion you are experiencing is either pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral – and why doing this reflexively will help you stay unhooked from judgment, attachment or aversion to your ranging feelingsWhy true freedom requires the ability to be with ANY emotionResources:// If you’re new here, grab the starter kit I created at RebelBuddhist.com.

You probably think you know what ‘s important to you, right?But in my coaching practice, I’ve found that while most people believe their values are very clear to them, when it comes down to putting words to our values, a lot of people get stuck! That’s totally OK – and to be expected, because not a lot of folks have been given the chance to sit down and consciously reflect on all this.It might seem like a no-brainer, but it takes more conscious effort and commitment than one might think: In order to really understand what you WANT out of this one wild and precious life, you must get clear about who you are and what’s important to you. Period.Because if we don’t know what we want and what our values are, we waste so much damn time, money and energy on things that don’t serve us.This episode is super interactive (for all you experiential learners out there!) – we dig deep into how to get clear on what’s important to you, and I offer a few tips and practical exercises for a solid starting place. Got your pen and paper ready?Taking the time to get clear about what we believe in, what we prioritize, and what feeds our soul is invaluable. Decisions can become more clear when we pause to think about how our actions – and their consequences – fit in with our values.Too many people wait until the Big Event happens – the new job, the new degree, the kids leaving for college, finally getting pregnant or having a partner, to fit into their old jeans, or make X amount of $$$ – before they start feeling joy and that their outside life is in alignment with their internal values.The catch is that, to manifest all those things you want, you need to start feeling that way NOW.

Most of us want healthcare to be both patient-centric and evidence-based. But are those two goals compatible? Can we tailor healthcare to our unique circumstances­, while relying on the average statistical measurements that scientific evidence is based on? Emerging ideas in the philosophy of science are challenging a rigid reliance on evidence-based medicine and offering a more nuanced understanding of patient safety.This episode is part of the Uppsala Reports Long Reads series – the most topical stories from UMC’s pharmacovigilance magazine, brought to you in audio format.

Debbie Weil interrupts regular programming to address the Coronavirus pandemic and how this evolving situation is impacting older Americans. She is joined by her husband Sam Harrington, a retired physician, and a recurring guest on the show. They talk about how they are navigating uncertainty and unknowns differently (Sam as a physician, Debbie as a non-physician but with a new hunger for charts and numbers); magical thinking about what lies ahead; and what it really means to be older (they are both 68) and to face the possibility of illness and death.This episode was recorded on March 15, 2020 so the number of positive Coronavirus cases Debbie cites is already sadly out of date. The pandemic in the U.S. continues to worsen: one of their greatest concerns, shared by many others, is that the U.S. hospital system will not have enough ICU beds for those who need them. Older Americans are worrying that medical triage of the critically ill will begin, with the elderly being passed over in favor of younger and potentially stronger patients.The conversation is not about specific guidelines or statistics related to COVID-19, available elsewhere. See Resources below. It is about the psychological aspect of the pandemic. Debbie and Sam talk about how aging and ageism are interwoven; the way social distancing might impact different age groups; and the lingering question of how best to navigate these uncertain and confusing times. What they talk about:The "herd" of elephants in the room: anxiety over who will die, the importance of flattening the curve and the reality of social distancing over a long period of timeHow members of Debbie and Sam’s immediate family have been responding differently to the pandemic (the physicians vs. the non-physicians)How doctors deny their own mortality when they go to work in a public health crisisBeing old - or at least older - during the Coronavirus pandemic and how that feelsMagical Thinking: nonsensical, perhaps, but a way to manage uncertainty and unknownsWhat Debbie and Sam’s biggest fears areWhy the U.S. is not set up for "slow motion" uncertainty At a time of crisis, it felt important to share a conversation between an older - yet young at heart and mind - couple. As Debbie says, there’s a lot of meaning in the words: we are all in this together. She sees a ray of hope in that phrase. Whatever we can do to comfort, to inform or even to entertain each other is useful. Podcasts are having a moment - to do just that. Which is why Debbie decided to go ahead with this episode even though it is not definitive, nor does it address everything. Mentioned in this episode or useful resources:An evolving chart of the Coronavirus trajectory: number of positive cases and number of deaths.

Beverley talks about an article she read recently from Steve Wilson - what we are doing online not who we are will become more interesting to the Facebooks of the world. Read the article here:https://www.constellationr.com/blog-news/identity-deadEither way we really want to hear what our guest has to say about how cyber criminals are using our identity and how their crimes are impacting consumersThe chat - Professor David LaceyProfessor David Lacey is Managing Director and Board Member of IDCARE, Australia and New Zealand’s national identity and cyber support service. They are a not-for-profit Australian charity that was formed to address a critical support gap for individuals confronting identity and cyber security concerns. This gap requires specialist Identity & Cyber Security Counsellors and Analysts that apply a human-centred approach to identity and cyber security. This means they place at the centre of everything they do the concerns and needs of the individual, not the technology or process.Dave also chairs the Cyber Security Department at the University of the Sunshine Coast and is also Director for Cyber investigations and Forensics there.He teaches, carries out research and leads programs of national importance so we are very excited to have Dave on the show!Read his full bio here https://www.idcare.org/team-members/professor-david-laceyWe chat to Dave about:Who IDCARE are and why they existThe common reasons people call IDCARE for help, who are they and where are they fromHow consumers feel when their info is involved in a data breachWhat IDCARE see when it comes the emotional impact on people of cyber and identity crimeWhy intelligence has nothing to do with people falling for scamsHow well the security community is doing when it comes to our response to data breaches & how consumers really want us to respondWhether the breach notification law in Australia has helped moved the needle for everyday Australians and if not, what more can be doneWhether Data breach notification fatigue is realWhy the time, effort, frustration, bureaucracy and heavy lifting through the system harms the consumer and the opportunity for solving thisHow Australia compares globally when it comes to cyber crimeWhat are the high risk and low risk pieces of personal info from what Dave sees the criminals can do withHow ID care see there is a knowledge gap from both consumers and incident responders around what high risk and low risk items areWhy it is so hard to understand the risk when communicating on data breachesWhether we (as an industry) make enough of the link between telephone and the misuse of information onlineIf data is the new oil, who are the refineries?What does the future hold? Will IDCARE continue to need to grow?How to follow IDCARE:FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/IDCARE-553864471323871/Twitter https://twitter.com/iDcareAUNZLinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/idcareaus/The debriefWe reflect on some of the most poignant lessons from Dave’s chat;The breadcrumbs of our credentials, telephone scams and the fact that there is no link between intelligence and consumers falling for scams – a reminder that users are not stupid and if people are giving out passwords on the street, maybe we have failed? either way passwords are a big challenge for consumers and for our industry.We discuss how we still have a long way to go to help people with the what's in it for them but we feel optimistic that we have people like Blair Adamson, guest from our first podcast to help lead the way!And that's a wrap for episode 2 - thanks for listening!

How many times have you heard someone--maybe on TV--say, "Oh, we're just going through a rough patch." Really? Is it? Or, is it abuse? It's SO important to know the difference, and that's what today's episode sets out to make very clear: the difference.Here's how Dictionary.com defines abuse:to use wrongly or improperlymisuseabuse one's authoritytreat in a harmful, injurious, or offensive wayto speak insultingly, harshly, and unjustly to or aboutmalignto commit sexual assault uponharshly or coarsely insulting languagebad or improper treatmentOK...big difference from a supposed "rough patch," right?There's no getting away from it. When someone treats you in a degrading, mean, discounting, or dismissive way, it's abuse!If you don't have strong boundaries that you express and maintain, you'll turn yourself into a pretzel, and end up being a doormat. You don't want that for a moment longer, right? That's why you need to see this clearly right now, whether it is happening to you or to someone you care about.HIGHLIGHTS OF TODAY'S EPISODE:Why you mustn't dismiss "bad behavior"Clear outlines of what emotional abuse and verbal abuse areWhy it is essential to express and maintain boundaries in outing abuseWhy you must never allow someone to diminish your sense of identity, dignity, or self-worthExamples of what #Hijackal abusers do that you need to recognize for what it is.#Hijackals, finances, and financial abuseI hope this help you see that more clearly.
