In this episode of Public Health Epidemiology Conversations, Dr. Huntley sits down with Susan Polan, PhD, Associate Executive Director for Public Affairs and Advocacy at the American Public Health Association, for an inside look at what it means to fight for public health in today's political climate. From managing six simultaneous lawsuits, a historic moment for APHA, to navigating federal policy battles and protecting critical public health funding, Dr. Polan shares the realities of advocacy at the national level. She also discusses the growing need for public health professionals to step beyond research and into policy conversations that shape real-world outcomes. The conversation highlights APHA's Policy Action Institute, a training experience designed to help public health professionals translate science into messages that resonate with lawmakers and communities alike. Most importantly, Dr. Polan offers a powerful reminder: your voice matters more than you think. Every call, email, and conversation with policymakers counts and public health professionals have the expertise needed to influence the decisions that impact communities every day. If you've ever wondered how policy change really happens, and where you fit into the process, this episode offers both clarity and a call to action.   Resources ▶️ Join the PHEC Podcast Community ▶️ Visit the PHEC Podcast Show Notes ▶️ DrCHHuntley, Public Health & Epidemiology Consulting

Step into the uncompromising truth of the gospel with the Savior Speakers Series, where we refuse to dilute faith for cultural comfort. In this powerful episode, Associate Executive Director and Operations Director of People of Faith Builder, Angelie Kapoor, calls believers to realignment—a return to Christ-centered thinking and living that's anchored in Scripture, not shaped by fleeting cultural trends. If you've ever felt stuck, conflicted, or uncertain despite your faith, this episode confronts the real source of the battle: the battlefield of your mind.Discover the difference between behavior modification and true transformation, and why your daily thoughts, no matter how subtle, shape your destiny. Are you being conformed or transformed?Tune in as we explore Romans 12:2 and expose the silent drift away from truth. Leave surface-level faith behind. Step into courageous obedience and trade comfort for conviction. One question for reflection: What's truly shaping your mind today?Episode Highlights:03:56 - If the enemy can influence your thinking, he doesn't have to control anything else. And most of the time, he doesn't do it in obvious ways. He does it subtly, quietly, through thoughts that seem reasonable but are not rooted in truth.07:13 - Instead, we slowly begin to adopt language that sounds right, but that isn't rooted in scripture. We start to prioritize comfort over conviction. We start to treat truth as flexible instead of it being fixed. And we keep faith private instead of living it out boldly. And over time, without even realizing it, we begin to think more like culture than like Christ. 19:19 - Discernment is not a personality trait. It's the result of thinking that is aligned with truth. So if your thinking is shaped by culture, your discernment will be weak. But if your thinking is shaped by scripture, your discernment will be strong.Connect with Angelie KapoorLinkedIn

Send us Fan MailState laws across the country, and now even federal policies, increasingly target transgender people and LGBTQ people more broadly.  Lifesaving, necessary gender-affirming care is being restricted or criminalized. Discriminatory policies and legislation, such as proper identity document bans, restrictions on participation in sports, and “sex definition” laws that police public restrooms, are attacking people in their day-to-day lives. What people may not realize, is that every one of these laws and policies affects intersex people, too, and that is why organizations like interACT are so important. From education to support, interACT is working to affirm trans and intersex folks in the fight to access lifesaving, necessary care. Today In the Den, we'll  cover some important basic information that will explain intersex conditions, and we'll talk about how we can better support and affirm the intersex folks in our lives and in our country.Special Guest: Bria Brown-KingBria Brown-King (They/She) is a Black, queer, non-binary, and intersex person. Bria is the Associate Executive Director at interACT: Advocates for Intersex Youth. Bria got their start in intersex advocacy in 2018 as an interACT Youth Advocate. In 2019, they became the first openly intersex person to speak about intersex issues on the steps of the Supreme Court. In their current role, Bria facilitates education on intersex issues, works to close the gap in intersex-affirming research and data collection, and serves on multiple advisory boards, representing intersex people nationally and internationally.Special Guest: Dr. Bonnie ScrantonDr. Scraton is a licensed clinical social worker, AASECT-certified sex therapist and sexual health educator, and an assistant professor of social work at Central Connecticut State University. She maintains a private practice and serves on a multidisciplinary team at Connecticut Children's Medical Center, where she supports children with variations in sex characteristics and their families. Motivated by both her clinical work and her lived experience as the parent of a child with an intersex variation, Bonnie's  doctoral research at the University of Pennsylvania resulted in the development of Project LISTEN, a peer support and empowerment program for parents newly learning about their child's variation. The program is designed to provide information, connection, and support for parents and caregivers, helping families ensure children grow up with agency and ownership over their bodies and medical decisions.Links from the Show:Find the interACT website hereIntersex Definitions hereIntersex FAQ hereJoin Mama Dragons todayIn the Den is made possible by generous donors like you.

Save 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKIPEDIA at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comThis week on the podcast, Mikki speaks to Dr. Eric Ravussin, one of the world's leading researchers in human metabolism, obesity, and energy balance. Over several decades, Dr. Ravussin's work has helped reshape how scientists think about body weight regulation, moving the conversation beyond the simplistic idea of “calories in versus calories out” to a deeper understanding of the biology that governs appetite, energy expenditure, and fat storage.In this conversation, Mikki and Eric explore the brain's role in regulating body weight, the influence of genetics and environment, and what his landmark research — including work with the Pima population and the CALERIE trial — has revealed about metabolic adaptation, calorie restriction, and longevity. They also discuss spontaneous physical activity, the concept of a body-weight “settling point,” and the emerging role of GLP-1 medications in obesity treatment. It's a fascinating look at the physiology of weight regulation and why maintaining weight loss is often far more complex than most people realise.About Dr. Eric RavussinDr. Eric Ravussin is an internationally recognised researcher in metabolism, obesity, and energy balance. He is Associate Executive Director for Clinical Science at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center at Louisiana State University, one of the world's leading institutions for metabolic research.For more than three decades, Dr. Ravussin's work has focused on understanding the biological drivers of obesity and weight regulation, including energy expenditure, metabolic adaptation, appetite regulation, and the role of genetics in body weight. His research with the Pima population helped illuminate the powerful interaction between genetics and environment in the development of obesity.Dr. Ravussin has also been a principal investigator in the landmark CALERIE (Comprehensive Assessment of Long-term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy) trial, the first long-term randomised controlled trial examining the physiological effects of sustained calorie restriction in humans, including its potential implications for metabolic health and longevity.He has authored hundreds of scientific publications and remains a leading voice in research exploring how biology, behaviour, and environment interact to shape body weight and metabolic health.Prof Ravussin's faculty profile:https://www.pbrc.edu/research-and-faculty/faculty/Ravussin-Eric-PhD.aspx  Curranz Supplement: Use code MIKKIPEDIA to get 20% off your first order - go to www.curranz.co.nz  or www.curranz.co.uk to order yours NZ listeners - save 10% off Calocurb by using the code Mikkipedia10 at www.calocurb.co.nzContact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

In a powerful episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I sat down with Joyce Salzberg, an extraordinary woman whose life and work illuminate the intersection of personal resilience, professional purpose, and societal transformation. Joyce is the co-founder and co-CEO of Sunny Days, a national provider of early intervention and autism services, and the founder of Oxford Consulting, which supports schools and adults with developmental needs. But her journey began with a painful turning point—and became a lesson in turning adversity into impact. A Catalyst for Change: From Breast Cancer to Bold Beginnings Joyce's career in early childhood intervention took an unexpected turn after a breast cancer diagnosis while serving as the Associate Executive Director of United Cerebral Palsy of New Jersey. Despite undergoing chemotherapy and radiation, she continued working tirelessly—only to be told her insurance premiums had become a burden and, soon after, that her position was no longer needed. Rather than retreat, Joyce fought back. She filed a lawsuit, becoming one of the first to test the newly passed Americans with Disabilities Act as a cancer survivor. The case garnered national attention and, ultimately, inspired Joyce to launch Sunny Days in 1994. Pioneering a New Model of Care Starting in the basement of her home, Joyce reimagined how services could be delivered. While others were focused on center-based programs, Sunny Days sent occupational, speech, and physical therapists into the child's natural environment—their home. Joyce's vision was validated when Congress reauthorized the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in 1998, mandating that early intervention services be delivered in those very environments. Her innovation wasn't just timely—it was transformative. Today, Sunny Days serves families in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, California, and more. Her son now leads operations in New York, her daughter supports administration, and Oxford Consulting continues to expand services for school-aged children and adults. You may enjoy our YouTube video of this podcast: Leading with Purpose, Scaling with Precision Running a mission-driven company isn't just about compassion—it's about operational excellence. Joyce built Sunny Days and Oxford Consulting with no formal business training, relying instead on her background as a social worker, her experience managing programs, and her keen ability to recruit the right experts, understand government regulations, and manage complex budgets. Today, Joyce oversees a team of 15 directors, with leadership succession plans in place to ensure her legacy lives on. The organization's services are not only clinically sound—they're deeply personal. Joyce continues to receive emails from parents whose children have made remarkable progress because of Sunny Days' early intervention programs. Policy Challenges and a Call to Action Despite its success, Joyce is clear-eyed about the challenges ahead. Funding for early intervention, especially through Medicaid, is at risk. In states like New Jersey and New York, where the majority of children served rely on Medicaid, the future of these programs is in jeopardy. She urges policymakers to recognize that early intervention is not an expense—it's an investment. Getting services to children between birth and age three can dramatically reduce the long-term costs associated with developmental disabilities. As Joyce explains, “We save Part B of IDEA money by intervening early, helping children reach developmental milestones before entering school.” Giving Back with Grace Joyce's success has come full circle. A first-generation college graduate from a working-class family in Philadelphia, she never forgot her roots. In 2019, she donated $1 million to Temple University to create the Joyce K. Salzberg Center for Professional Development, helping liberal arts students prepare for meaningful careers. She also established scholarships for single mothers, recognizing how hard that journey can be. Her advice for aspiring women entrepreneurs? Network relentlessly. “You never know who will open the next door,” she says. And most importantly, listen to what others see in you. Sometimes others recognize your potential before you do. I know you are going to want to know more about Sunny Days and Joyce Salzberg.
