This summer has not only brought a completely new theme park to the Orlando tourist scape, but within it, two impressive theatrical shows within its park's gates. At the same time, Disney's Hollywood Studios has opened two theatrical shows within its studio gates. In a showdown, we'll look at Le Cirque Arcanus in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter--Ministry of Magic as well as The Untrainable Dragon from the Isle of Berk--both premiering at Epic Universe. We'll also take a look at two new shows that just premiered at Disney's Hollywood Studios, Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After and The Little Mermaid Musical Adventure. From queue to finale, from performers to technical staging, we'll look at which of these fare best and are worth your time. The competition is tough, so join us as we look at these four new theatrical shows in two very unique Florida theme parks. ____________________________________________________________________ More Disney Insights can be found below!

We live in an era where young people are expected to have it all together — success, style, and a perfectly filtered life. But behind the aesthetic, many are silently battling overwhelming anxiety. In this powerful episode, Rachel sits down with Gen Z author and mental health advocate Carrie Berk, whose new book Mindfire dives deep into what it means to come of age in a world that demands perfection while offering very little compassion.Carrie opens up about her own experience with anxiety, the pressure of social media, and the importance of redefining strength as vulnerability — not stoicism.

Prepared to be inspired by this twenty-two year old who's already making waves in the media and book writing world. In this episode, Carrie Berk shares her journey as a young author and journalist while navigating the challenges of anxiety and OCD. She discusses the misconceptions surrounding these mental health issues, the importance of relatability, and how she has learned to live with her conditions. She emphasizes the significance of self-awareness and age as factors in personal growth, and introduces her book 'Mindfire', which serves as a roadmap for those struggling with mental health issues. The conversation highlights the balance between productivity and relaxation, and the power of mindset in achieving one's goals. Takeaways Carrie Berk is a young author and journalist who openly discusses her struggles with anxiety and OCD. Relatability in sharing experiences can be more powerful than reassurance. Self-acceptance is crucial in dealing with mental health challenges. The pressure to succeed can be self-inflicted, and it's important to allow oneself time to rest. Community support and sharing stories can alleviate feelings of isolation. Anxiety can be used as fuel for personal growth. You are capable of more than your anxiety tells you. Mindset shifts can lead to productive actions. Carrie's book 'Mindfire' offers strategies for mental health. You are in control of your own life and decisions.

Carrie Berk has been battling a spiraling mind for as long as she can remember. As a child, she kept her OCD rituals secret. As a teen, her anxiety took over during the silence of the pandemic. And even now — as a published author, popular content creator, and mental health advocate — the intrusive thoughts haven't gone away. But instead of waiting to be “cured,” Carrie chose something else: to live, to create, and to speak out.In this raw and revealing conversation, she shares what it means to build a life with anxiety as your shadow — and why she refuses to let it steal her voice. From her new book Mindfire to her journey through therapy and self-discovery, Carrie opens up about the hardest thoughts she's had, the tools that helped her move forward, and the truth that changed everything: it's not about being cured — it's about learning how to live with what's still there.0:00 Intro2:28 Meet Carrie3:30 Why Carrie's book is called Mindfire4:27 Early signs of having OCD7:54 Feeling you are alone9:16 Self-harm and suicidal thoughts are not the same11:31 Listen to your gut15:24 Why OCD feels so real17:47 Carrie's book is a roadmap for OCD20:54 Advice if you're struggling22:25 You'll never “cross the finish line” with OCD25:41 How OCD safety behaviors affected Carrie31:17 What Carrie does when OCD cuts into her passions33:41 OCD is misunderstood36:10 How to talk about your OCD with someone else37:17 How friends and extended family members react to Carrie's OCD42:10 You need to want to get better44:18 OutroNeed help treating OCD?

They say the girls who get it, get it—and the girls that don't, don't and when it comes to mental health, truer words have never been spoken. Anxiety isn't just stress, OCD isn't about color-coding your closet, and intrusive thoughts don't play fair.On this episode of On the Bright Side, I'm joined by influencer, author, and writer Carrie Berk to dive deep into the messy, unfiltered reality of anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and the inspiration behind her new book, Mindfire: a raw, intimate diary of her mental health journey.Navigating your 20s is hard enough, but add a voice in your head dictating your every move? That's a whole different level of chaos.From intimacy anxiety to panic attacks, we're breaking the silence on the struggles too many people face alone—because the more we talk about it, the more we realize we're in this together. Let's talk about the mental health taboo today and normalize it. Remember you're never alone. This episode is super helpful, but there are parts that may be triggering to some.

Stijn Franken is strafrechtadvocaat. Franken, die bekendheid verwierf als advocaat van Volkert van der G., Lucia de Berk en Willem Holleeder, werd door vakgenoten verkozen tot beste strafrechtadvocaat van Nederland. Enkele jaren geleden werd Franken ziek. In zijn memoir ‘Laatste man' vertelt hij over zijn ervaringen als strafrechtadvocaat. Het is een boek over het zoeken naar waarheid, de kracht van verhalen en de kloof tussen zij die oordelen en zij die veroordeeld worden. Femke van der Laan gaat met Stijn Franken in gesprek.

Lucy Letby's lawyers claimed this week that a key prosecution expert has changed his opinion on how three of the babies died. The expert - Dr. Dewi Evans - has denied the claim. Letby's lawyers say they can prove otherwise. To discuss this and also claims that one of the victims - known as Baby O - may have been accidentally killed by a doctor, Richie is joined by Professor Richard Gill. He's an esteemed mathematician and statistician based in The Netherlands.  Richard was influential in the exoneration of Lucia de Berk, a Dutch nurse who was wrongfully convicted of murdering babies back in 2003. Plus: Richie rounds up the day's top news stories.https://gill1109.com/
