When Bec Richman started out in rabbinical school, she felt lost. What was she going to do with herself? Then, her vision became clear: she wanted to learn how to scribe. The only problem was, tradition stood in her way. According to Jewish law, only men could be scribes, but Rabbi Bec and other non-male aspiring scribes like her worked around the rules. In a time when so much attention is being paid to religion and how it affects the world, join Brian Seltzer as he explores a growing movement within progressive Judaism, how a congregation in Philadelphia is pushing the movement forward, and the transcendent themes from this story that can be applied to people of all walks of life, regardless of how they worship.

Communication is an essential part of leadership. In the parishes we coach, one of the most common concerns that leaders raise is the issue of poor communication.   If we don't get communication right, it's incredibly difficult to be effective in any other aspect of the work we're doing.   On this week's podcast, Ron is unpacking six reasons that people are often unable to get communication right. Maybe you're struggling with one, or several, of these barriers to effective communication. This podcast will give you tangible tips to communicate in a more impactful way within your church or ministry.

What does safety in our body mean? How can we create inner safety, even amidst external barriers? And when we talk about healing our relationship with our body, what does that mean in the context of chronic illness or having a marginalized identity? Our current eating disorder landscape only caters to the young, white, cis, able-bodied archetype. Often, the method for recovery is "just eat more". What is missing from the conversation about body dissatisfaction and disordered eating? A lot. But in a big way, the current narrative leaves out marginalized communities and in particular the prevalence of EDs in trans and gender diverse folks.  In this week's episode, I'm joined by Graham, who I connected with over Instagram once upon a time, and who wound up being a friend -- someone I continue to connect with over DMs. Graham tells their body story, including their experience with chronic illness, body dysphoria, and an eating disorder.  We cover so much in this episode, including: The impact of chronic illness on embodiment What “managing” a chronic illness is like Social pressures and discrimination Unique factors that lead to EDs in gender diverse people Body image and body dysphoria Puberty and disordered eating Barriers to medical care and treatment Mental health stigma Safety versus happiness in a marginalized body What healing means - and feels like - to Graham Why "eating more" isn't the primary solution to EDs How to keep going amidst stigma and systemic harm Finding community and support that honors your authentic self How our relationships can be a catalyst to healing Showing up for yourself, messy imperfections and all Resources mentioned: @ItsHolly black ass brownie recipe   Support the show: Enjoying this podcast?

A recent UN report shows that women are underrepresented at all levels of decision-making worldwide. They say that women in executive government positions and gender equality in the highest positions of power will not be reached for another 130 years. How can we close the gender gap and achieve true representation?With a distinguished career in public service, Mary Hayashi has spearheaded substantial reforms in mental health services, championed gender equality, and forged powerful, unprecedented partnerships for social causes that previously had no financial or public backing. Recognized as “Legislator of the Year” by the American Red Cross and the California Medical Association, Mary has also been featured on Redbook's “Mothers and Shakers” list and Ladies' Home Journal 's “Women to Watch.” Mary remains a steadfast proponent of social justice expansion and the rights of underrepresented communities. She is author of Far From Home: Shattering the Myth of the Model Minority, and Women in Politics: Breaking Down the Barriers to Achieve True Representation."One of the studies I mentioned in the book is people don't see women as leaders and the barriers you experience as a candidate during a campaign. And even after you win and you're serving inside the government, there are still challenges to overcome. Last year, we had a record number of women elected and becoming leaders in government positions, but it doesn't mean their path is easy or it's set. Because of gender bias, women are supposed to be coalition builders and not supposed to be ambitious. One of the things that I talk a lot about is the ambition gap. When women show ambition, we're penalized. People are often suspicious of our motivation. It's like, why is she running? What is she about? And being an Asian American woman, I was perceived by my colleagues after I won and chaired one of the most powerful policy committees in the legislature, I often felt like people didn't know how to engage with me as a peer. They'd never seen an Asian American woman in that role before and so they would criticize me for being too ambitious or too aggressive, or too opinionated. And that really takes a toll on you just emotionally. I wasn't raised that way, but when you have an opinion, people are just not used to seeing Asian women as peers in that role and that really needs to change. And I think it will over time as they see more people like us serving in leadership roles."www.maryhayashi.comhttps://womeninpoliticsbook.orgwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

Because over 21, you're like an old maid and nobody's going to want to marry you. That was really their mentality. I'd only been in the country for seven years at that time and just kind of feeling lost and didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. And one day I signed up for this Women's Studies class. And I thought it was more about how I could be a better woman to my husband and my kids, that type of home economics class. And that's when I was introduced to feminist literature. And I started reading about the women's movement and how Gloria Steinem went from being a Playboy model to becoming a feminist and how that transpired. And when I started reading about these women who did what they did, a light bulb went on my head that I actually could have a career and do something with my life. And so, I'm not a professional writer. I'm a politician. I do government affairs work but publishing a book is a way to help other women realize their path because that's what feminist literature did for me."www.maryhayashi.comhttps://womeninpoliticsbook.orgwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

They say that women in executive government positions and gender equality in the highest positions of power will not be reached for another 130 years. How can we close the gender gap and achieve true representation?With a distinguished career in public service, Mary Hayashi has spearheaded substantial reforms in mental health services, championed gender equality, and forged powerful, unprecedented partnerships for social causes that previously had no financial or public backing. Recognized as “Legislator of the Year” by the American Red Cross and the California Medical Association, Mary has also been featured on Redbook's “Mothers and Shakers” list and Ladies' Home Journal 's “Women to Watch.” Mary remains a steadfast proponent of social justice expansion and the rights of underrepresented communities. She is author of Far From Home: Shattering the Myth of the Model Minority, and Women in Politics: Breaking Down the Barriers to Achieve True Representation."My parents expected me to go to college just enough that I could find somebody, marry, and have kids. Because over 21, you're like an old maid and nobody's going to want to marry you. That was really their mentality. I'd only been in the country for seven years at that time and just kind of feeling lost and didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. And one day I signed up for this Women's Studies class. And I thought it was more about how I could be a better woman to my husband and my kids, that type of home economics class. And that's when I was introduced to feminist literature. And I started reading about the women's movement and how Gloria Steinem went from being a Playboy model to becoming a feminist and how that transpired. And when I started reading about these women who did what they did, a light bulb went on my head that I actually could have a career and do something with my life. And so, I'm not a professional writer. I'm a politician. I do government affairs work but publishing a book is a way to help other women realize their path because that's what feminist literature did for me."www.maryhayashi.comhttps://womeninpoliticsbook.orgwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast

Dr. Leighton Flowers discusses why passages like this don't fit within the Calvinistic system:   Luke 18:25: “For ait is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”    If a work of irresistible grace (pre-faith regeneration) is indeed the mean for faith then what difference would one's wealth make in their conversion?   Either they were elected to be regenerated or they weren't.   Their wealth would play no part in that process.   To see the video from Got Questions, go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Wnva5zlYEU&t=37s   To SUPPORT this broadcast, please click here: https://soteriology101.com/support/   Subscribe to the Soteriology 101 Newsletter here: www.soteriology101.com/newsletter   Is Calvinism all Leighton talks about? https://soteriology101.com/2017/09/22/is-calvinism-all-you-talk-about/   DOWNLOAD OUR APP: LINK FOR ANDROIDS: https://play.google.com/store/apps/de...

Thanks to our sponsor Uber Lube 10% off, Code NOTBROKEN  uberlube.com Dr. Khera lives in Houston, TX practices at Baylor and has dedicated his clinical and research efforts to three main areas:  Men's Health, sexual medicine, and hormone replacement therapy.   His basic science and clinic experiences have allowed him to thus far give over 250 lectures at scientific meetings throughout the world, publish over 120 articles in peer-reviewed journals, complete 15 book chapters, and edit and write two books, all in the field of sexual medicine and Men's Health. Why is testosterone so interesting to Dr. Khera? Testosterone and prostate cancer – what do we know. Is a lowering Testosterone in men "natural"? and if it isn't, what causes low testosterone in men? What do the new weight loss drugs do to testosterone levels and male fertility? We discuss the different ways you can give testosterone to women: topical, pellets and compounded injectable doses of testosterone for women: 50mg/ml and start at 0.1 mg injected a week. The benefits of testosterone for women besides low libido. The role of chronic pain and testosterone and pain meds. The mechanism of how your testosterone goes up when you lose body fat. The four pillars of health for natural testosterone production – diet, exercise, sleep, stress reduction Erectile dysfunction is a harbinger for heart attack and heart disease. “There is not a better barometer of a man's overall health than his sexual health” – Dr. Khera The role of DHEA (a mild androgen made in the adrenals) in men and women. The link with Peyronies disease and Testosterone. And we discuss penile stretching devices. We discuss a 2013 Finkelstein article – they gave men testosterone and blocked its conversion to estrogen. So are we undertreating men by not addressing their estrogen? Dr. Khera was  part of the NEJM study that came out this summer looking at T in men with low T and high risk CV risk. The Traverse trial. Conclusions: In men with hypogonadism and preexisting or a high risk of cardiovascular disease, testosterone-replacement therapy was non-inferior to placebo with respect to the incidence of major adverse cardiac events.  Barriers to a testosterone prescription include that it is a regulated medication, a physician needs a DEA license to prescribe it – similar to a narcotic. Dr. Khera lends his opinion to safe prescribing of testosterone but thinks the DEA regulation is here to stay. He clarifies the number of men who suffer from hypogonadism and the number of men who are undergoing treatment for this condition? Testosterone levels are dropping because men are getting less healthy. Dr. Khera talks about measuring a baseline testosterone level in men as a marker of overall health and focus on lifestyle changes to naturally get this normal. 50% of men don't talk to their doctor about their erectile dysfunction, and 44% of those men don't talk to their partner about it. www.instagram.com/drmohitkhera Dr. Mohit and Dr. Morgentaler's testosterone course ⁠NEJM article discussed: Gonadal Steroids and Body Composition, Strength, and Sexual Function⁠ ⁠Traverse Trial https://drmohitkhera.com/ Did you get my “You Are Not Broken” Book Yet? https://amzn.to/3p18DfK Listen to my Tedx Talk: Why we need adult sex ed Join my NEW Adult Sex Ed Master Class: https://www.kellycaspersonmd.com/adult-sex-ed Join my membership to get these episodes ASAP when they are created and without advertisement and even listen live to the interviews and episodes. www.kellycaspersonmd.com/membership --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kj-casperson/message

“When pushing the boundaries of the human body, either I'm going to break, or it is.  Can I pull the trigger and go?  It can be this way in self-defense, life, and everything else that we do.A great question is to ask what is the absolute worst that could happen in this situation, when you can wrap your mind around that worst-case scenario, I know that I can digest that and we can move forward.  You have to know I might break, it might, but you have to know that you can pull the trigger.” – Chip TownsendMy guest this episode is Chip Townsend, who is a 14-time ISKA (International Sport Karate Association) World Breaking Champion.  At the age of 3 Mr. Townsend lost his eye in a freak accident, and since that day he has faced the world with perseverance, grit, determination, and an unwavering quest to making the world a better place.  He is a 7'th degree black belt, a world champion, a motivational speaker, and a community and industry leader.This episode is all about pushing the boundaries of the human body and mind and discovering its full potential.  My key takeaway is that the limits of fear and pain can be progressively overcome by an intelligent training method that safely guides the practitioner from the unknown to the known.  We need to carefully assess the cost and potential risks involved and accept them before we can move forward.  We need to create training wheels or safety nets to develop skill and confidence so that we can break through our physical, mental, and spiritual barriers.  Once we know that we can break through we can slowly and safely remove the training aids.  This process will allow us to make the impossible possible.  We must approach this endeavor with Wonder and Excitement of what is possible and allow the wonder and excitement to be the master of fear.  The true purpose of martial arts is to make the world a better place, to do this we must remove our self-imposed limitations, and become examples of what is possible.  Mr. Townsend is a remarkable individual, tune in for another amazing episode filled with inspiration, wisdom, and actionable training tips.

Our guest today is Meghan Moynihan. Megan is the executive director of the Institute for Functional Restoration, or IFR, a not-for-profit organization based at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. The IFR seeks to further functional recovery in spinal cord injury by developing commercial strategies to get that research to market.

Sex work, also known as prostitution, involves the exchange of sexual services for money or goods. Those who engage in sex work face numerous dangers and risks due to the often stigmatized and illegal nature of the industry. While some sex workers may choose this profession willingly, many are pushed into it due to economic hardships, lack of opportunities, or human trafficking.Violence and Abuse: Sex workers are at a high risk of experiencing violence and abuse from clients, pimps, or law enforcement. Due to the illegal nature of sex work in many places, sex workers are often afraid to report incidents, leading to a lack of protection and justice.Sexual Assault and Rape: Given the vulnerable nature of the profession, sex workers are susceptible to sexual assault and rape. Perpetrators may exploit the workers' marginalized status, making it less likely that they will report such crimes.Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and HIV: Sex workers face a higher risk of contracting STIs and HIV due to the intimate nature of their work. Barriers to accessing healthcare and stigma can make it challenging for them to seek medical attention and practice safe sex consistently.Drug and Alcohol Abuse: To cope with the harsh realities of sex work, some individuals may turn to drugs or alcohol, leading to addiction and related health issues.Trafficking and Exploitation: Many sex workers are victims of human trafficking, where they are coerced or deceived into the industry against their will. They may be trapped in exploitative conditions with limited freedom and subjected to further abuse.Mental Health Issues: The stigma, isolation, and trauma associated with sex work can lead to significant mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).Legal Vulnerability: In many places, sex work is illegal, leaving sex workers vulnerable to arrests, fines, and imprisonment. This legal status often prevents them from accessing legal protections and recourse.Stigma and Discrimination: Sex workers face significant societal stigma and discrimination, leading to marginalization, social isolation, and difficulty accessing basic services and support.Poverty and Economic Vulnerability: Sex work can be a means of survival for individuals facing economic hardship or lack of job opportunities. However, it often perpetuates the cycle of poverty and makes it challenging to transition into other forms of employment.Lack of Support Services: Due to the stigmatized nature of sex work, there is often a lack of support services and resources available to help sex workers with their specific needs, such as housing, healthcare, and legal aid.(commercial at 12:20)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Breakthrough in Long Island serial killings shines light on the many unsolved murders of sex workers - ABC News (go.com)This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5080327/advertisement
