Ad Free at www.patreon.com/dopeypodcastBilly Strings sits down for one of the rawest, heaviest, and most honest conversations ever recorded on Dopey. In this replay, Billy talks openly about growing up in chaos, losing his dad to heroin at age two, his mom's crack and meth addiction, violence in the home, poverty, hunger, couch-surfing, and the wild, psychedelic, musical household that shaped him. He walks through the exact moments his childhood shifted from love and music into danger, raids, labs, dealers, and watching addiction take over everyone around him.Billy tells stories about tweaking with his parents, smoking meth for the first time with his mom, first acid trips, playing guitar for 48 hours straight, metal bands, coke, crack dreams, and the insane scenes he lived through as a kid and teen.He talks about leaving home at 13, being homeless, trying coke and meth after swearing he'd never do hard drugs, the traumatic first time he did heroin, panic attacks, confronting childhood sexual abuse in therapy, and getting sober from alcohol nine years ago.Billy also goes deep on losing his mom in 2024, learning she died from meth intoxication, how he found out through the death certificate while on tour in Australia, the confusion, denial, anger, heartbreak, poems she left behind, and the letter from his biological father he discovered after her death — the first time he ever saw his father say he loved him.He shares what Trey told him about Al-Anon, how he's been listening to meetings, how his understanding of addiction has completely changed, and his desire to help kids growing up in houses like his.This is Billy Strings telling his story exactly as he lived it — no hiding, no sugarcoating, and no shame.

Scott Smith: The Spotlight Failure That Taught a Silent Lesson About Recognition Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "Not everybody enjoys the limelight and being called out, even for great work." - Scott Smith   Scott was facilitating a multi-squad showcase with over 100 participants, and everything seemed to be going perfectly. Each squad had their five-minute slot to share achievements from the sprint, and Scott was coordinating the entire event. When one particular team member delivered what Scott considered fantastic work, he couldn't help but publicly recognize them during the introduction.  It seemed like the perfect moment to celebrate excellence in front of the entire organization. But then his phone rang. The individual he had praised was unhappy—really unhappy. What Scott learned in that moment transformed his approach to recognition forever. The person was quiet, introverted, and conservative by nature.  Being called out without prior notice or permission in front of 100+ people wasn't a reward—it was uncomfortable and unwelcome. Scott discovered that even positive recognition requires consent and awareness of individual preferences. Some people thrive in the spotlight, while others prefer their contributions to be acknowledged privately. The relationship continued well afterward, but the lesson stuck: check in with individuals before publicly recognizing them, understanding that great coaching means respecting how people want to be celebrated, not just that they should be celebrated.   Self-reflection Question: How do you currently recognize team members' achievements, and have you asked each person how they prefer to be acknowledged for their contributions?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Could U.S. public companies shift from quarterly to semiannual reporting? Jonathan Johnson, former chairman and CEO of Overstock and current member of various boards, joins the show to unpack one of the most debated proposals to SEC reporting. They explore whether fewer formal filings would help management teams stay focused on long-term enterprise value instead of reacting to quarterly earnings swings. In this episode: • How a semiannual cadence could affect a company's time horizon • Whether companies would still feel pressure to share quarterly updates • The gap between GAAP metrics and the metrics leaders actually use to run the business • Why the growing length of 10-Qs and 10-Ks is fueling this debate • The role XBRL® tagging plays in machine and AI analysis—and what could shift • Whether board oversight and accountability would meaningfully change Jonathan also points out that semiannual reporting already works in markets like Europe and Australia.

Geoff Cruickshank became interested over a decade ago in claims that JFK sought the truth about UFOs and was at first blocked by a highly secretive control group called MJ-12 before being assassinated. Cruickshank uncovered important documents among newly declassified JFK assassination files which provide critical support for leaked MJ-12 documents that reveal a highly coordinated campaign to frustrate JFK's quest to get to the truth about UFOs. These leaked MJ-12 documents include a leaked June 28, 1961 document requesting the then director the CIA, Allen Dulles, to share information about MJ-12's “Cold War Psychological Warfare Plans” Cruickshank explains the connection between MJ-12 and psychological warfare, and his discovery of declassified diary entries showing that Dulles visited JFK twice on June 28.In addition, Cruickshank explains the significance of the leaked 1961 Burned Memo, and its significance due to the inclusion of a cryptic assassination directive and its reference in another leaked smoking gun Top Secret memorandum issued on November 12, 1963, only 10 days before JFK's assassination. Cruickshank also presents his reasons for why a Hotline conversation between JFK and Nikita Kruschchev discussing their respective challenges in sharing UFO related information due to opposition by legacy UFO programs.Geoff Cruickshank is a security consultant, engineer, and researcher based in Darwin, in the Northern Territory of Australia. He's a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and worked as a Mission Support Specialist with Boeing at a high security defense facility in Darwin. https://www.linkedin.com/in/geoff-cruickshank/Join Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

MCLAREN GIVES MAX THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING! NORRIS KNEW THAT MICKEY DEE HAD JUST F…ED UP OSCAR ON THE EDGE OF TEARING UP AND, FERNANDO HAPPY TO BE IN THE POINTS!  NASIR HAMEED CORNER HAS THE USUAL BANTER AND MORE ON THE USF1 FIASCO! LUSAIL CITY, QATAR - NOVEMBER 30: Race winner Max Verstappen of the Netherlands and Oracle Red Bull Racing celebrates on arrival in parc ferme during the F1 Grand Prix of Qatar at Lusail International Circuit on November 30, 2025 in Lusail City, Qatar. (Photo by Mark Thompson/Getty Images) MAX: “I feel great, I am really proud of that one. We made the right call as a Team there to box: it was definitely what made us win the race today, as I felt like we were not on the same level as McLaren in terms of pace. When a safety car comes in it can shake up the grid and that was a great opportunity for us to then win the race. We did a very good job as a Team and I was very proud of us, especially as we nailed the strategy. In Abu Dhabi, we have nothing to lose and we are going to give it everything that we have. Of course, we are relying on another crazy race like we had today, but we are going in there with positive energy. We need to maximise the car and be as competitive as we can. We will stay focused, try and have a good time and hope that we start the weekend well.” LAURENT MEKIES: “We can definitely be happy with that one. The pace in the car steadily improved from Friday night when we were in a tricky position, to tonight when we could fight with the McLarens, which is a testament to the Team once again. Of course, the decisive moment was the call to come in under the Safety Car and it was another great call from our strategy team here and those working back in Milton Keynes. From there on, Max didn't put a foot wrong, drove two incredible stints, taking great care of his tyres and managed to create a solid gap to the McLarens, which drove us to this most welcome race win! Yuki managed to recover to score points and his pace was promising at the end of the race once outside of the DRS train. We'll need to perform again in Abu Dhabi and we will have absolute focus on getting the car into a position where Max can fight at the front and look ahead. What happens behind him is not something we can control." CARLOS: Extremely happy! We had a very strong start and from there we executed a perfect race with strategy, tyre management, pit stops and communication. By the end of the second stint, I saw Piastri struggled to overtake me on fresh tyres, and at that moment I realised we had to go for the podium. I was pushing to the limit of the car but 6 laps to the end something suddenly broke! I started losing a lot of lap time in sectors 1 and 3 but I managed to keep it together and bring it home for P3! Today's result is testament to the team's hard work; I knew we were taking the right steps and, despite some difficult race weekends along the way, I had full confidence in what we are doing. I'm extremely proud of everyone, we deserve this P5 in the Constructor's Championship, and I look forward to finishing the season on another high in Abu Dhabi! Let's go. JAMES VOWLES: Exceptional. Really fantastic performance from Carlos and the team when it counted and every detail adds up. Getting on the podium by milliseconds really is such a just reward for the incredible work the whole team is putting in this year. I was proud of Carlos and the team when we got our first podium in Baku; the second is a dream come true, but perhaps more importantly at a track that was almost our worst last year. And we've come back, we've reinvented ourselves and the result is there for everyone to see. For Alex, we will come back fighting in Abu Dhabi. We haven't got it all together this weekend, but I'll reiterate that his performance across the season is why we've secured fifth in the constructors' championship today. And more so than that, his pace is still there. We just need to bring it all together.  Finally, fifth would have been a dream come true just 12 months ago when we were languishing in ninth in the Constructors' Championship. Thank you very much. LUSAIL CITY, QATAR - NOVEMBER 30: Race winner Max Verstappen of the Netherlands and Oracle Red Bull Racing Second placed Oscar Piastri of Australia and McLaren Third placed Carlos Sainz of Spain and Williams and Hannah Schmitz, Principal Strategy Engineer of Oracle Red Bull Racing on the podium during the F1 Grand Prix of Qatar at Lusail International Circuit on November 30, 2025 in Lusail City, Qatar. (Photo by Lars Baron/LAT Images) OSCAR: Clearly we didn't get it right tonight. I drove the best race that I could as fast as I could and there was nothing left out there, so I tried my best. It wasn't to be tonight unfortunately. “I think in hindsight it's pretty obvious what we would've done. I'm sure we'll discuss it as a team. “It's not all bad, obviously,” Piastri said. “It's been a really good weekend. The pace has been very strong but obviously it's a little bit tough to swallow at the moment. “I'll just try and drive how I did this weekend, that's all I can do. I obviously need a lot of things to go in my direction so I'll just try and be as fast as I can and put myself in the best position possible and see what happens.” FERNANDO: "Two points yesterday and six today exceeds our expectations for this weekend. After the early Safety Car, we committed to the two-stop strategy along with everyone else. We didn't have the pace to fight ahead tonight. We got a bit lucky with the DRS train of cars and with how difficult it is to overtake here. We also got a bit lucky with the spin mid-race, because on another circuit maybe I would have ended up in the gravel. The points are a welcome boost in the battle in the Constructors' Championship as we head into Abu Dhabi." Martins wins in Lusail as Fornaroli seals 2025 Formula 2 title! Leonardo Fornaroli: It sounds amazing. I didn't have many expectations because it was a new  car and my first time working with an English team, so it was a bit scary but their mentality since  day one – I understood I made the right choice to go with them. Every day they were able to  make me feel at home. We had so much fun over the season and they were able to give the right  suggestions to help me improve, to make me feel better after a mistake or a bad  race or moment. Also, having Roman as a teammate this year, we've known each other for three  years, as we were together at TRIDENT, but in different categories. He has good experience in  Formula 2, so I was able to learn a lot from him, and he made me improve as well. To achieve this now, it's a massive relief, and it's a big boost of confidence, because I was able to show what I'm capable of, and also I'm quite happy about how the season went. For sure, there were some mistakes I could have avoided, some for inexperience and some were just my mistakes, but it's part of the game. The Championship is very competitive. You always have to be at the limit to score good results. So mistakes can happen, but nevertheless, I learned, was able to improve, and now to finally win this Championship, it's a massive relief. It was a dream for me to become Champion with one round to go so I could race and experience the race with a lot less pressure. But still, I will do the best I can, because the fight for the Teams' Championship is still on. So I will push as much as I can in Abu Dhabi, and try to still improve.

Happy Mindful Monday Everyone!In this week's episode, our host, Allie Brooke, sits down with  amazing Brigette Panetta. Brigette has emerged as a powerful advocate for individuals facing social injustice and adversity. As the partner of James Mawhinney, founder of Media.com, Brigette has personally experienced the profound challenges of fighting against a government body. Over the past four years, she has witnessed the severe impact of Australia's corporate regulator, ASIC's, false allegations on her family's investment business, Mayfair 101. This ordeal has deeply affected Brigette, her young family, and the lives of nearly 600 Australians. Her journey began under extraordinary circumstances—two days after giving birth during the onset of the pandemic, Brigette found herself in the ICU, recovering from a traumatic birthing experience while simultaneously supporting James through 26 legal hearings. The struggle resulted in losing their family home and enduring significant personal and professional setbacks. Despite these hardships, Brigette's resilience has driven her to speak out and assist others in similar predicaments. Brigette is committed to creating a foundation to provide litigation funding and support for individuals battling injustices. She aims to offer a platform for people to share their stories and find solidarity in their experiences. In addition to her advocacy work, Brigette is passionate about holistic healing modalities. She has explored and benefited from practices such as breath work, meditation, kinesiology, and Reiki to overcome trauma and stress. Through her journey, she has discovered the power of internal healing and now wishes to educate others on these methods.Episode TopicsHow did you specifically cultivate mental resilience during such an intense social justice pursuit, when the stakes were so high?Can you share an experience where a mental barrier (like self-doubt, fear, or hopelessness) felt particularly overwhelming, and what immediate, in-the-moment strategies you used to overcome it?How did your experiences with adversity fundamentally shift your perspective on personal strength and the human capacity for endurance?You've leveraged meditation, Reiki, and other holistic healing modalities to transcend adversity. For listeners who might be new to these practices, where would you recommend they start to begin building their inner strength?Can you describe how integrating mind, body, and spirit through these practices creates a different kind of resilience compared to purely mental fortitude?Was there a specific holistic practice that felt most impactful for you during your most challenging times, and what made it so powerful?How do you continue to weave these holistic practices into your daily life now, beyond times of crisis, to maintain your well-being?How To Connect w| BrigetteWebsiteLinkedIn  The Growth METHOD.

Episode Summary In this episode of the Scalable Law Podcast, I sit down with Amy Soong, Principal of Ashworth Lawyers, to talk about what it really looks like to step off the tools and lead a high-performing criminal law practice. Amy has built an exceptional reputation in Queensland over nearly two decades, yet like many firm owners, she found herself trapped in the workload. In just a short time inside the Accelerator program, she shifted from being the main fee-earner to becoming the CEO of her firm and created enough space to launch a completely new business for the legal profession. We dive into that journey, the mindset shifts, the systems that made it possible, and the inspiration behind her new platform, Advisent, designed to connect clients with verified and experienced lawyers across Australia. This conversation is packed with practical insight for any lawyer who wants more freedom, better leverage, and a business that no longer relies on them to survive. What You'll Hear in This Episode How Amy stepped back from daily file work without compromising quality She walks through the shift from “doing everything” to leading a team of senior criminal lawyers confidently handling the firm's matters. Why building the right team was the turning point We explore how experienced lawyers, clear systems, and collaborative processes allowed her firm to run smoothly, even when she's not in court. What sparked the idea for Advisent Amy shares her vision for solving a real gap in the market: helping clients book verified, experienced lawyers while giving law firms a low-risk way to attract high-quality leads. How expanding your marketing channels reduces cashflow stress We discuss why relying on referrals or one marketing method is no longer enough and how platforms like Advisent can boost visibility and SEO. The importance of community and connection for law firm owners Amy explains how events like Law Biz Con helped her find a trusted network of peers who openly share strategies, challenges, and wins.

In this episode of The Chemical Sensitivity Podcast, we're exploring youth, chronic illness, and MCS. You'll hear Aaron Goodman speaking with Imogen Harper, Ph.D., a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Sydney in Australia. She explores how:·       Diagnosis of illnesses like MCS in youth is often complex and requires adults noticing symptoms and advocating. ·       Parents and caregivers can play a crucial in navigating medical systems and ensuring that their child's needs are taken seriously.·       Illnesses like MCS affect young people's identity, relationships, and sense of independence. ·       Youth and older people with chronic illnesses often deal with anxiety, isolation, stigma, and the challenge of staying connected with others. Listen at https://www.chemicalsensitivitypodcast.org/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUHZINO1vQ2tRcy0GVU4PmwSubscribe wherever you get your podcasts. If you would like to share your experiences or feedback, email aaron@chemicalsensitivitypodcast or comment on social media.#MultipleChemicalSensitivity #MCS #MCSAdvocacy #InvisibleIllnessAwareness #SafeHealthcareSpaces #ChemicalIntolerance #EnvironmentalDisabilityLinks:Imogen's 2024 paper:"Chronic Concealment and Awareness in the Affective Worlds of Young People Living with Chronic Illness."https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/10497323241304571DISCLAIMER: THIS WEBSITE DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE The information, including but not limited to, text, graphics, images, and other material contained on this website are for informational purposes only.

A stadium's worth of men—every year. That's the scale of new IPV use suggested by Ten To Men, Australia's landmark longitudinal study of male health. We sit down with research fellow Karlee O'Donnell a Researcher with the Australian Institute of Family Studies to unpack what the data really says about how depression, suicidality, paternal warmth, and social support shape men's risk—and what actually works to prevent harm.Across a decade of surveys, one in three men self-reported using some form of intimate partner violence. Yet within those hard numbers are practical levers. Men who strongly felt they received warm, respectful affection from a father or father figure were nearly half as likely to perpetrate IPV later. That's not about father presence; it's about the quality of care boys see and absorb. We translate that insight into real-world steps: father-inclusive perinatal care, concrete coaching on warmth and de-escalation, and programs that treat caregiving as core to men's health.We also dig into mental health pathways without reducing IPV to mental illness. Men with moderate or severe depressive symptoms were significantly more likely to use IPV later, and men with suicidal thoughts, plans, or attempts carried elevated risk independent of depression. We explore how anger, externalizing behaviors, and coercive control intersect with distress, and why services must protect partners while caring for the suicidal person. Clinicians get a roadmap: use screenings as early-warning signals, educate on escalation, build coping skills, and connect men to support before behavior hardens into harm.Finally, we highlight the quiet power of social support, which lowered the odds of IPV onset, and we make the case for policy that rebuilds men's community ties and includes fathers from day one. Healthier men mean safer families and stronger communities. If you care about preventing violence, ending loneliness, and improving men's mental health, this conversation points to integrated solutions you can act on today.If this resonated, follow the show, share with a friend, and leave a review to help others find it.

Alarming Urban Home Invasion: Venomous Brown Snake in Canberra — Jeremy Zakis — Zakis reported on a concerning home invasion in Canberra involving a highly venomous great eastern brown snake, one of Australia'sdeadliest species. The family discovered the dangerous reptile in their residential hallway; the snake subsequently relocated to the toilet bowl, effectively trapping itself and facilitating safe capture. Experts characterized this unusual urban behavior as potentially symptomatic of snakes seeking cooler refuge as ambient temperatures rise during Australian summer, suggesting climate-driven habitat displacement. 1916 GARDEN OF EDEN

First Ashes Test in Perth: Lopsided Victory and Food Surplus — Jeremy Zakis — Zakis detailed the first Ashes test match in Perth, which concluded rapidly due to Australia's dominant performance, resulting in a severely lopsided victory over England. The unexpectedly brief match duration created massive oversupply of prepared catering and concession food, which event organizers successfully redirected to Osh Harvest charity for community distribution. Zakis noted significant weaknesses in both teams' batting and bowling performances as they prepare for the subsequent test match in Brisbane, highlighting areas requiring tactical adjustment and personnel evaluation. 1906

Martin Black discusses ranching, horsemanship and making a living in the southwestern corner of Idaho. The lifelong horseman has deep roots in the region, as both sides of his family settled in Owyhee County more than 150 years ago and raised and sold thousands of horses to ranchers and buckaroo outfits throughout the Great Basin. Black himself ran cattle and trained horses for many years before he began conducting horsemanship clinics, a livelihood pioneered by his former father-in-law, Ray Hunt. Black's reputation as a teacher of practical horsemanship skills has taken him throughout the United States and into Australia, Brazil and Europe. In addition to working as a rancher and clinician, he has competed successfully in colt starting competitions, won major ranch horse events, claimed a Ranch Horse Association of American National Championship, and started multiple performance horses that went on to win titles in cutting and reined cow horse. He has also released several DVDs, written numerous articles and co-authored the book, Evidence Based Horsemanship with Dr. Stephen Peters. Today, Black continues to ranch in Idaho and conduct private and public clinics.

Natalie welcomes guest Tamar Ben Giges who made aliyah with her husband and six children from Australia to Jerusalem two years ago. Tamar was a high school teacher and continues here in Israel to be a teacher. Her husband is an accountant. She shares the difficulties of living alone in Israel without family support, and comments on the need to prepare for career changes and budget changes to make things work. Natalie's second guest is Rabbi Ken Spiro who shares that it is important for Jews to learn and be unified now as never before, and it is essential to make a "paradigm shift" that is, all Jews should plan to move to Israel. He clearly states that the world is cleansing itself of it's Jews and the diaspora is shutting down. Frightening words, but true. Rabbi Ken suggests reading "The Israel Test" and stresses that being Jewish is never easy but it is meaningful. Follow Rabbi Spiro at KenSpiro.com.

Welcome back to Bri Books podcast! If this is your first time, WELCOME! And if you're a return listener from the last 6 (!!!!!!) years, welcome back. Bri Books is now also on YouTube: watch here. Today is November 30th, marking not just the beginning of Advent season, but the beginning of BriCember! What is BriCember? BriCember is a personal project wherein I challenge myself to produce and publish a podcast episode a day in the month of December. Not only is December my birth month, it's also the perfect time of the year to catch up on where you've been and where you're going. What's Coming Up This BriCember? In 2025, I'll be approaching BriCember through the lens of literature, with lots of recommendations of what to read. But I'm also aligning it not just with the month, but with how we think of time. This BriCember will be aligned with the moon phases. But Wait, Where Have You Been, Bri?I've spent most of 2025 in flux, in the most beautiful way. Last year, in 2024, I began a new career at JPMorganChase. In 2025, I started to find my professional stride. I also moved house in 2025! I moved from one apartment in Brooklyn to another, and I'm nesting. We'll be doing deep dives into winter food as well this BriCember. Also, I'm still reeling from the fallout of my mothers' death. That's a constant on my mind. Which brings me to….writing! I'm officially writing again, and I'm focused on writing and publishing in 2026. I'm giving myself the rest of the year to sharpen up my writing, so I can graduate to having an agent and finishing my book. I've been reorganizing my life in very tiny, quiet ways, and art has been a big part of 2025. I've been painting, and I've been traveling. I'm grateful that travel has been part of my working life in 2025. This year, I went to Sydney, Australia; Tokyo, Japan; Hong Kong; and Singapore, in addition to Western China and Mexico. Prayerfully there will be more travel in 2026. What's Coming in BriCember 2025 I've broken each week of December according to the moon cycles. Week 1: All about wine! Holiday wine menu planning, how to spend $60 at your local wine shop, Austrian wine, Madeira, orange wine, and having fun learning about terroir in the wine world. Week 2: Winter reset! We'll shift into how to prepare for a restful winter, my favorite health and beauty picks of 2025, gentle goal-setting, how to go gently into the new year; what to grow and sow in the new year! Lifestyle toolkit; manifestation journaling and how to get started; a winter mid-season check-in; Week 3: Cozy-maxxing! Winter recipes, soups, and spices; winter food rituals; what's in season at the farmers market in winter; deep winter books/ the best books to hunker down with this winter Week 4: Prepping!

In this episode, Linda Nurra returns to discuss the practical role of flower essences and how they complement homeopathy. She explains why flower essences are accessible tools for both practitioners and home prescribers, especially when supporting emotional well-being. Linda highlights how these remedies can help homeopathy students manage common challenges such as overwhelm, insecurity, and perfectionism. She also describes how flower essences can support clients during homeopathic aggravations without interfering with remedies. Throughout the conversation, Linda emphasizes self-care, emotional intelligence, and the importance of empowering individuals with gentle, supportive tools. Episode Highlights: 05:35 - Flower essences and homeopathy as sister healing arts 07:29 - A bridge for people not yet ready for homeopathy 09:58 - Whole-person focus over diagnoses 13:30 - Flower essences extending support beyond acute care 18:12 - Ideal gift for pregnant friends or midwives 21:35 - Supportive remedies for each stage of learning 24:31 - Flower Essences for Guilt and Boundaries 27:30 - Remedy that can help students return to the present moment 30:27 - Dosing and Application of Flower Essences 40:14 - How Flower Essences Encourage Self-Reflection in Children 46:46 - Managing Remedy Aggravations with Flower Essences 47:56 - Using Rock Rose for Panic and Anxiety 50:14 - When Theory Meets Reality About my Guests: Linda Nurra, PhD, CCH, RSHom(NA), is a dedicated teacher whose work bridges homeopathy, flower essence therapy, and the deeper study of human meaning and consciousness. With a background in humanities, linguistics, and semiotics, she spent years in higher education as an instructor, curriculum designer, trainer, and leader. Her healing path began nearly three decades ago with an encounter with flower essences—a moment that opened the door to exploring human emotion, the wisdom of plants, and the transformative capacity of nature. That journey eventually expanded into studies of spiritual and healing traditions, culminating in a profound experience with a homeopathic remedy that set her on a new professional course. Linda earned her advanced practitioner diploma from the School of Homeopathy (UK) and has since trained with leading teachers around the world. Her career has focused on teaching, writing, community-building, and supporting both students and practitioners in deepening their understanding of holistic healing. She has served as curriculum director and lead faculty at the Prometheus Homeopathic Institute, taught for the Los Angeles School of Homeopathy and the Veterinary Homeopathy Institute, and contributed to multiple publications. A former board member of the California Homeopathic Medical Society, Linda also leads several study groups that foster collaboration, learning, and a vibrant sense of community within the homeopathic field.
