JP, BMitch, Jeff, and WB debate whether they can more about Dan Quinn's press conference or the World Cup draw.

In this episode from the Mind & Life archive, Wendy spoke with the renowned Buddhist practitioner and author Matthieu Ricard. Matthieu was integral to the founding of contemplative science, serving as both a participant and co-investigator in many early studies, and has deep expertise in compassion, altruism, and well-being. This conversation covers many topics, including: his roots in both science and Buddhism, and his appreciation for rigorous inquiry; his role as a participant and collaborator in contemplative science; lessons from research on compassion vs. empathy; how the self shows up (or doesn't) in compassion; links between self-focus and vulnerability; hedonia, eudiamonia, and self; altruism and our current crises; reconciling three time scales of concern; sentience, life, and interdependence; caring for our whole interconnected system; the practice of awe; using photography to share basic human goodness; balancing fame and monastic life; and a poignant example of his own personal experience of care.

In this engaging conversation on the Adulting with Horses podcast, Heather and Natalie explore the themes of trusting the process, the importance of energy and intention in life, and the dynamics of horse ownership. They share personal stories about their experiences with horses, the emotional lives of these animals, and the significance of connection and communication in building relationships with them. The discussion also delves into the challenges of making decisions regarding horse care, the role of personality in horse selection, and the power of self-reflection and writing in navigating life's complexities.

St. Louis City officials and advocates for the homeless say they are bracing for, and oppose, the Trump administration's cuts to programs that put homeless people in permanent homes. In November, HUD Secretary Scott Turner called the use of billions of dollars to provide permanent housing a “Biden-era slush fund” that would be replaced by a focus on temporary housing. Local advocates for the homeless from Gateway Housing First and the director of the city's Department of Human Services say the change could put hundreds of people in St. Louis at risk of returning to homelessness. In this episode, we also learn how the life of one family was changed through St. Louis' Continuum of Care program, which allowed them to escape homelessness and move into an apartment of their own.

In this episode, we step inside The Rooted Refuge, a community-centered acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) clinic founded by Dr. Christopher Peacock, whose approach blends  accessible healthcare and deeply personalized treatment. Dr. Peacock shares how growing up with sick parents in rural Ohio shaped his belief that healing must go beyond symptom management and instead focus on root-cause wellness. He explains the fundamentals of TCM—including acupuncture, herbs, tongue and pulse diagnosis—and how he tailors every treatment to the individual, especially for conditions like anxiety, insomnia, digestive imbalance, fertility challenges, and chronic pain. We also explore his mission to make acupuncture financially accessible through sliding-scale pricing, free clinics, and a collaborative practitioner model that reduces overhead to better serve marginalized communities. This conversation offers listeners an eye-opening look at how holistic medicine can be both effective and equitable.   To learn more about Dr. Peacock, visit therootedrefuge.com

Dee Dee Bass Wilbon and Deana Bass Williams and BPALiveWire Contributor, Dorian Blaine Francis talk about the role of The Church in setting policy.   Is the Body of Christ being divided on issues that we should be unified around.  Abortion, Transgender Issues, Taxes, Care for the Poor - should there be a unified response to these things?Romans 10:9 - If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be savedHebrews 10: 24-25 - And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

But in these days, we are seeing an increase in this assault, and it is being waged with a subtle ferocity that has taken quite a toll.

On this episode: Lucy Lopez, Elizabeth Newcamp, and Zak Rosen take a listener question about how to be there for a fellow parent who is going through a hard time. The listener's friend's kid is acting out and causing lots of stress. They toss around ideas about ways friends have shown up for them, ideas for support without smothering, and more. But first, they share their latest Triumphs and Fails. Lucy survives a trip to the wilderness with her family, Elizabeth survives an international trip with the kids as the only parent (and gets praise for their behavior!), and Zak is clearly raising a cool kid.

Episode Summary: Christmas is often described as the most wonderful time of the year, but for many, it doesn’t feel that way. Whether because of grief, loneliness, financial strain, or painful memories, the holidays can intensify sadness instead of joy. Today on Your Hope-Filled Perspective, Jessica Van Roekel and I want to talk about what we call a ‘Blue Christmas.’ Together, we’ll explore why it’s important to give ourselves and others permission to grieve during the holiday season, how God meets us in our pain, and ways to navigate December with compassion and hope. Quotables from the episode: For some, Christmas brings laughter, lights, and loved ones. But for others, it’s a season that magnifies loss, heartache, or isolation. If you or someone you know is struggling this Christmas, you’re not alone. On today’s episode of Your Hope-Filled Perspective, Jessica Van Roekel and I will share how to give space for what we call a ‘Blue Christmas’—a time when we acknowledge that the holidays can be hard, while also discovering God’s gentle presence and the hope He offers, even in the midst of sorrow. I wanted to acknowledge that while Christmas is often referred to the most joyous time of year, it isn’t for everyone, and it’s important for us to acknowledge our thoughts and feelings, but simultaneously continue to put our hope in God. Often, Christmas is portrayed as magical, joyous, and full of peace. But for many, that’s simply not the reality. Grief, depression, loneliness, or broken family relationships can make Christmas feel heavy. And pretending everything is fine when it’s not only deepens the ache. God invites us to bring Him our honest emotions. Think about the Psalms—David poured out his sorrows, and yet found hope in God’s presence. Let’s name some reasons people might struggle at Christmas: Grief from losing a loved one. Family estrangement or broken relationships. Loneliness, especially for singles, widows, or those far from family. Financial hardship that makes gift-giving stressful. Mental health battles like depression or anxiety. Unmet expectations. Christmas can amplify those pains. Lights and carols may remind us of what we don’t have. But Jesus came into a world of darkness. Isaiah 9:2 says, “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light.” His presence is especially near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). Sometimes we pressure ourselves to “put on a happy face.” But it’s okay to grieve at Christmas. Lament is part of worship. Jesus Himself wept (John 11:35). If the Son of God cried at loss, then tears are holy too. Giving yourself permission to be real is not a lack of faith. We can also set boundaries. Maybe we can’t attend every party. Maybe we create new traditions that feel gentler for our souls this year. Sometimes the best gift is presence, not presents. Just sitting with someone, listening, or sending a simple “thinking of you” note can mean the world. And don’t say, “You should be happy, it’s Christmas.” Instead, validate their feelings. Romans 12:15 says, “Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.” Another practical tip—invite them into your traditions in small ways, without pressure. Even a quiet cup of cocoa together can bring comfort. At the heart of Christmas is Emmanuel—God with us. That truth doesn’t change, whether our Christmas is merry or blue. We can both acknowledge sorrow and cling to hope. One way is through Scripture meditation. Even reading Luke 2 slowly and remembering that Christ entered a broken, chaotic world can remind us we’re not alone. Some practical things that help: Create a memory box or light a candle in honor of a loved one. Simplify expectations. You don’t have to do all the traditions. Prioritize rest and self-care. Spend time with safe people who encourage your heart. And when emotions overwhelm, breathe a prayer like: “Lord, hold me in this moment.” God doesn’t require eloquence—He wants our honesty. Friend, if you’re facing a Blue Christmas, know this: You are not broken because you feel sorrow. God sees you, loves you, and promises to draw near. He is “Immanuel—God with us.” That’s the real miracle of Christmas. Whether your Christmas is filled with joy or tears, His presence is your anchor. Scripture References: Psalm 42:11 “Why, my soul, are you downcast? Put your hope in God…” Matthew 1:23 “They will call Him Immanuel, which means ‘God with us.’” Ecclesiastes 3:4 “a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance” Isaiah 9:2 “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light.” Psalm 34:18 His presence is especially near to the brokenhearted. Romans 12:15 “Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.” Recommended Resources: Reframing Rejection: How Looking Through a Different Lens Changes Everything By Jessica Van Roekel Sacred Scars: Resting in God’s Promise That Your Past Is Not Wasted by Dr. Michelle Bengtson The Hem of His Garment: Reaching Out To God When Pain Overwhelms by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner AWSA 2024 Golden Scroll Christian Living Book of the Year and the 2024 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in the Christian Living and Non-Fiction categories YouVersion 5-Day Devotional Reaching Out To God When Pain Overwhelms Today is Going to be a Good Day: 90 Promises from God to Start Your Day Off Right by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, AWSA Member of the Year, winner of the AWSA 2023 Inspirational Gift Book of the Year Award, the 2024 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in the Devotional category, the 2023 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in four categories, and the Christian Literary Awards Henri Award for Devotionals YouVersion Devotional, Today is Going to be a Good Day version 1 YouVersion Devotional, Today is Going to be a Good Day version 2 Revive & Thrive Women’s Online Conference Revive & Thrive Summit 2 Trusting God through Cancer Summit 1 Trusting God through Cancer Summit 2 Breaking Anxiety’s Grip: How to Reclaim the Peace God Promises by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the AWSA 2020 Best Christian Living Book First Place, the first place winner for the Best Christian Living Book, the 2020 Carolina Christian Writer’s Conference Contest winner for nonfiction, and winner of the 2021 Christian Literary Award’s Reader’s Choice Award in all four categories for which it was nominated (Non-Fiction Victorious Living, Christian Living Day By Day, Inspirational Breaking Free and Testimonial Justified by Grace categories.)

What don't we care about NOW?!

In this special live pod, Ray and Jim were joined by two distinguished guests: Former Japanese Ambassador to Australia Shingo Yamagami and Bonnie Glaser, Director of the Indo-Pacific Program at the German Marshall Fund of the U.S. Together, they unpack China's escalating diplomatic offensive against Japan following PM Sanae Takaichi's recent statements about Taiwan.​What Sparked the CrisisEp. 114 centers on Takaichi's remarks in the Japanese Diet, where she responded to a hypothetical question about a Taiwan blockade scenario. She stated that if China imposed a blockade around Taiwan and the U.S. intervened, Japan could classify the situation as an "existence-threatening situation" under its national security legislation-potentially allowing deployment of Japan's Self-Defense Forces. Shingo emphasized this was not a policy change but a restatement of Japan's longstanding legal framework established a decade ago. Nevertheless, Beijing has reacted fiercely, labeling her comments an "unacceptable intervention" in China's domestic affairs.​China's Strategic CalculusBonnie explained that China's strong reaction stems from multiple factors: Xi Jinping's perceived loss of face after meeting Takaichi at the APEC summit, the 80th anniversary of WW2 amplifying anti-Japanese narratives, and concerns about Japan's military buildup in its Southwest Islands. China's broader message, she notes, is "kill the chicken to scare the monkey"-punishing Japan to deter other nations from challenging Beijing's red lines on Taiwan. China is also testing whether the United States will stand firmly behind its allies, seeking to drive wedges in the U.S.-Japan and other alliances.​The Stakes for Japan and the RegionShingo underscored Taiwan's vital strategic importance to Japan. If Taiwan falls under CCP control, the entire East China Sea would become contested territory, potentially forcing U.S. forces to retreat from Okinawa and fundamentally weakening Japan's defense posture. As former Prime Minister Abe famously stated: "A Taiwan contingency is a Japan contingency." Shingo also discussed the shocking details about a Chinese consul general's social media post threatening that Takaichi's "dirty neck will be chopped off"-unprecedented diplomatic intimidation that has only strengthened Japanese public support for the new prime minister, whose approval ratings have surged into the mid-70s.​The One China Policy vs. One China PrincipleThe discussion clarifies a critical distinction often misunderstood: The U.S. "One China policy" and those of other Western nations are fundamentally different from China's "One China principle." Neither the U.S. nor Japan has ever agreed that Taiwan is part of China-they merely "acknowledged" or "understood and respected" Beijing's position. China is now aggressively pushing countries to abandon their individual policies and adopt its principle, which holds Taiwan as an "inalienable" part of China.​Looking AheadBoth guests anticipate a prolonged chill in China-Japan relations. However, Shingo noted that China's economic vulnerabilities limit its coercion options-Beijing needs Japanese investment for its struggling economy. If Takaichi maintains her popularity and secures a strong political mandate, China may eventually be forced to engage with her government, as it did with the long-serving Abe administration. Glaser warns that China sees opportunity in a perceived U.S. decline and will continue pressuring allied coalitions, making unity among democratic partners more essential than ever.​

We often hear the "mantra" to move fast and break things...But what happens when the thing that breaks is you?For many service design professionals, this is the reality of their calendar: back-to-back meetings, a rush to deliver, and very little space to actually think. In many organizations, there is a culture that views this busyness as a badge of honor.But our guest in this episode, Rachael Dietkus, has quite a different -and healthier- approach.She has a rule written on a post-it note right next to her desk: "No meetings before 10 AM".This might sound like a luxury, doesn't it? But Rachael, who's a licensed clinical social worker and designer, argues that rules like this are actually a professional necessity.Rachael is the founder of Social Workers Who Design, where she is bridging the gap between the deep, ethical frameworks of social work and the often frantic pace of design.This is an eye-opening episode where we explore why service design might be missing a "manual" that social workers have had for decades. You'll hear about:Why we need to move beyond just empathy to genuine care and compassion.The importance of having a structured "safe space" to process your work (social workers spend at least 1 hour in supervision for every 40 hours of work!).Why setting hard boundaries is actually a sign of competence and professionalism, not weakness.So, if you sometimes feel the weight of the work is getting too much and you're looking for ways to create a healthier, more sustainable work environment, this conversation offers practical clues.As we are almost wrapping up the year, it's an important reminder that reflection on our work isn't a nice to have, but a healthy habit we should all embrace.Enjoy the conversation and keep making a positive impact.Be well,~ Marc--- [ 1.

WE CARE WEEK DAY 4See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textThe holidays can feel like a spotlight—bright, demanding, and sometimes blinding—especially when there's an empty chair at the table. We sit down with certified grief educator Maria Belanic, whose loss of her son reshaped how she understands healing, to talk candidly about what helps, what hurts, and how kindness can make the season more human. Instead of pushing forced cheer or tidy endings, we build a framework for real support that honors memories and respects limits.Maria unpacks why grief doesn't follow stages or timelines and offers her CARE pillars—Compassion, Acknowledge, Release, Embrace—as a steady guide through unpredictable days. Together, we challenge holiday myths, share simple scripts you can use right away, and normalize changing plans: keep a tradition, reinvent it, or skip it entirely. We talk about naming the person who's missing, bringing a favorite dish in their honor, and asking better questions like “How are you feeling today?” that invite truth without pressure. You'll learn how to set boundaries with hosts, plan graceful exits, and support someone who chooses to stay home without making them feel forgotten.This conversation is about presence over performance and attention over avoidance. If you've worried about “saying the wrong thing,” you'll hear clear, compassionate alternatives. If you're grieving, you'll get language to protect your energy and permission to be exactly where you are. And if you love someone who is grieving, you'll discover small kindnesses that turn isolation into connection.If this resonates, share it with someone who might need gentler holidays this year, then follow and leave a review so more people can find conversations that heal.This podcast is a proud member of the Mayday Media Network — your go-to hub for podcast creators.

How can you tell whether your pelvic floor is tight, weak, or both? In this episode, I speak with pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Sara Reardon about the confusion so many women feel around leakage, prolapse, painful sex, constipation, and “mystery” pelvic symptoms. Sara shares simple habits, movement tips, and muscle-care strategies that can dramatically improve pelvic health at any age. I'm thrilled to bring her expertise into a conversation that empowers every woman to understand and support her pelvic floor. Dr. Sara Reardon is a board-certified pelvic floor physical therapist who somehow turned a decade of helping women stop leaking, straining, and suffering in silence into the beloved persona “The Vagina Whisperer.” She now runs The V-Hive, teaches pelvic floor fitness online, and helps women of every age finally understand how their bodies work in real, relatable, totally refreshing ways. What you'll learn: (00:34 Why pelvic floor disorders are a “silent epidemic.” (01:49) How pelvic floor issues show up across ages—from young women with painful sex to older adults with bladder problems. (06:05) The many roles of the pelvic floor, including support, stability, bladder control, bowel function, and sexual function. (08:40) Why leakage, pain, and prolapse aren't “normal,” even though they're common. (10:39) The most important daily bladder habits—like not peeing “just in case” and never pushing to pee—that protect pelvic health. (14:36) How to contract your pelvic floor properly during exercise. (16:46) How to identify pelvic floor tension, and why stretching, breathing, and relaxation may matter more than Kegels. (25:02) What prolapse really is, and when therapy versus surgery is recommended. Love the podcast? Here's what to do: Subscribe to the podcast. Leave a review.

In this moving excerpt from Episode 68 of The Herbalist Hour, Dr. Tieraona Low Dog offers a deeply grounded reflection on what self-care truly means — and why she believes we can let go of the word "self" altogether. She speaks on love as something that must include ourselves, the importance of quiet and time in nature, and why the voice we hear in solitude is often the one we most need to trust. Drawing from lived experience, family, and the natural world, Dr. Low Dog reminds us that we are both profoundly strong and deeply fragile — and that both truths deserve tenderness. You'll also hear a thoughtful exchange about distraction, technology, walking in silence, and how listening to the land can reconnect us to our purpose, our ancestors, and our place in the long chain of life. A beautiful reminder to slow down, take the headphones off, and remember that you are not alone — and that you are here for a reason. WATCH THE FULL INTERVIEW ON YOUTUBE
