Michelle and Katherine are delighted to welcome Dr. Oscar Pérez for a discussion on grief bearers, ancestral healing and Toltec wisdom teachings!According to Toltec wisdom, in each generation, there is one family member whose soul path includes feeling, holding and processing wounding and shadow on behalf of their lineage. Unfortunately, in the modern, western world, these people are often criticized as “too sensitive,” or rejected as the “black sheep” of the family. In some cases, these Grief Bearers (as termed by Dr. Oscar) dive into addiction and harmful behaviors. In others, they become helpers, therapists, healers and care providers as a means to pursue this soul path of lineage healing. But many of these people suffer from burnout, psychic and emotional exhaustion. Join us for a potent conversation with Dr. Oscar as we dive into what it means to be a Grief Bearer, ancestral reclamation and lineage healing, and animistic wisdom in the context of mental health and allopathic medicine.Dr. Oscar C. Pérez is the founder of Tending The Fires, a global community and initiatory school for natural-born healers walking the shamanic path. He is the best-selling author of The Flowering War: Toltec Teachings for Healing Ancestral Trauma, a groundbreaking work that has become essential reading for therapists, spiritual seekers, and leaders reclaiming their lineage and life-force from generational wounding.Dr. Pérez holds a PhD from Brown University, where his research focused on how intact, earth-based cultures use storytelling, ritual, and collective memory to metabolize trauma and renew the soul of the people. A lifelong student and initiated practitioner of shamanism, Dr. Pérez weaves ancestral wisdom, transpersonal psychology, and cutting-edge neuroscience into his signature method of Soul Recovery, rooted in the Toltec tradition.Through retreats, immersive trainings, and his signature programs, Dr. Pérez guides modern-day Grief bearers— spiritual healers, coaches, and therapists — through the deep work of becoming the healers their lineages have been waiting for.Dr. Oscar Pérez links:Website: https://www.tendingthefires.com/The Fire Clan, the exclusive Tending The Fires community: https://tendingthefires.mn.co/ The Flowering War book: https://a.co/d/ajQ6pzJThe Flowering War audiobook: https://open.spotify.com/show/71Ij3lNiMMvE0SA9nUqEfd?si=327372266bec4af7

TED may be overlooked by clinicians due to the wide range of clinical manifestations, ranging from dry eye disease to diplopia, proptosis, eyelid retraction, and sight-threatening optic neuropathy. Although TED is often associated with thyroid disorders such as Graves' disease, cases without typical clinical signs or hyperthyroidism are particularly difficult to identify. Additionally, TED is associated with a significant disease burden for patients due to its debilitating symptoms, disfiguring nature, and the inconvenience and adverse effects associated with available treatments. Tune in to this educational series where expert faculty provide multidisciplinary perspectives on best practices for the diagnosis and treatment of TED.

Dr. Clara Berridge joins Alex and Emily to talk about the many 'uses' for generative AI in elder care -- from "companionship," to "coaching" like medication reminders and other encouragements toward healthier (and, for insurers, cost-saving) behavior. But these technologies also come with questionable data practices and privacy violations. And as populations grow older on average globally, technology such as chatbots is often used to sidestep real solutions to providing meaningful care, while also playing on ageist and ableist tropes.Dr. Clara Berridge is an associate professor at the University of Washington's School of Social Work. Her research focuses explicitly on the policy and ethical implications of digital technology in elder care, and considers things like privacy and surveillance, power, and decision-making about technology use.References:Care.Coach's 'Avatar' chat program*For Older People Who Are Lonely, Is the Solution a Robot Friend?Care Providers' Perspectives on the Design of Assistive Persuasive Behaviors for Socially Assistive RobotsSocio-Digital Vulnerability***Care.Coach's 'Fara' and 'Auger' products, also discussed in this episode, are no longer listed on their site.Fresh AI Hell:Apple Intelligence hidden prompts include the command "don't hallucinate"The US wants to use facial recognition to identify migrant children as they ageFamily poisoned after following fake mushroom bookIt is a beautiful evening in the neighborhood, and you are a horrible Waymo robotaxiDynamic pricing + surveillance hell at the grocery storeChinese social media's newest trend: imitating AI-generated videosYou can check out future livestreams at https://twitch.tv/DAIR_Institute.Subscribe to our newsletter via Buttondown.

Welcome back to "Friends for Life," the podcast where we dive deep into the realities and nuances of working in the field of developmental disabilities. I'm your host, Tony, and today we're tackling the often daunting topic of Major Unusual Incidents (MUIs). From personal experience and countless conversations with professionals, I know that facing an MUI can be stressful, but it doesn't have to be a nightmare. In this episode, we'll discuss practical strategies for staying calm during an MUI, the importance of meticulous documentation, and why it's crucial to stick to the facts. We'll also explore common mistakes people make during these situations and how to avoid them. Remember, MUIs are about documenting facts to prevent future issues, not about assigning blame.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka. M.D.; [@chutkaMD] Guest: Cornelia M. Weyand, M.D., Ph.D. Guest: Kenneth J. Warrington, M.D. Rheumatologic problems are some of the most common health conditions we see as primary care professionals. In many cases, taking months and sometimes years to properly diagnose, rheumatologic conditions can become frustrating for both the provider and the patient. There are a variety of new tests available to help us establish a diagnosis, as well as multiple new and effective treatment options. This episode is part of a seven-episode mini-series on Mayo Clinic Talks dedicated to rheumatologic health problems to aid in the recognition, diagnosis, and treatment for your patients. Please find these episodes where you listen to podcasts or on ce.mayo.edu. Polymyalgia rheumatica was first described in 1966 as a case report. It can have a wide range of symptoms and at times, can be challenging to diagnose. As with most rheumatologic disorders, the exact cause isn't known. While there are no specific laboratory tests which establish a diagnosis, there are some that are very useful. One of the most important features of polymyalgia is its relationship with vasculitis and temporal arteritis. In this podcast, we'll discuss polymyalgia rheumatica with rheumatologists Cornelia M. Weyand, M.D., Ph.D., and Kenneth J. Warrington, M.D., from the Mayo Clinic. We'll review the typical presenting symptoms, how to establish a diagnosis, helpful laboratory tests and its management.

Margot Strauhull brought her self-described “rule-following” attitude to her first hospital induction with an OB and had what she considered was a fine birth… until she was overcome by sadness in postpartum. This started her on a journey of peeling back the layers, to finally come to a deep trust in her own wisdom and instincts.Margot tells Adriana how the fear radiating from her providers around her “history of macrosomal infants” further activated her intuition to switch to a freestanding birth center at the beginning of her 3rd trimester, and finally have the undisturbed physiological birth she wanted.Sponsor offers - TIME SENSITIVE! NEEDED - Get 20% off at ThisIsNeeded.com with code BIRTHFULHONEYLOVE - Get 20% off at HoneyLove.com/Birthful JENNI KAYNE - Get 15% off at JenniKayne.com/Birthful with code BIRTHFUL15ONESKIN - Get 15% off at https://www.OneSkin.co/ with code BIRTHFULAQUATRU - Get 20% off at AquaTru.com with code BIRTHFULHOMETHREADS - Go to HomeThreads.com/birthful to get a code for 15% off your first orderGet the most out of this episode by checking out the resources and links listed on its show notes page.If you liked this episode, listen to our interview on Big Babies and Shoulder Dystocia and our episode on Birthing Like a Rockstar.You can learn more about Margot on Instagram @margotyoga.

Have you ever felt like you were seeing a revolving door of different doctors throughout your pregnancy? HOW can you feel confident and comfortable with the provider if it just. keeps. changing?   This week we're speaking with Shayna- a mother to two precious boys, one born in the hospital and one at home. We'll hear how Shayna dealt with switching doctors in her first pregnancy, and how a revolving door of doctors in her second pregnancy sent her seeking the continuity and CARE of a midwife.   As you prepare for YOUR homebirth, I want to remind you that my desire is to serve you as deeply as possible. While so many mothers gain so much from this podcast, a totally free resource, I know that many of you are seeking deeper preparation. That's exactly what we do inside of Happy Homebirth Academy and The Homebirth Collective. I give you a clear-cut framework for preparing for your homebirth, or preparing for your homebirth AND the transformation into motherhood. No wondering if you have what you need. No stone goes unturned.   Click the link in the show notes to join, and don't forget to apply the code PODCAST at checkout for 10% for being a listener of the show.   Episode Roundup   How amazing was that? As we head into this week's episode roundup, I want to ask you- how do you think it impacts our transition into motherhood to be supported continuously by the same person, or the same small group of people, as opposed to a massive conglomerate of doctors who may or may not know anything about you?   I think we can all agree that the sacredness of this transition into motherhood is deserving of respect and individualization. Without continuity of care, it's sure hard to truly receive either. If you're on the fence about how you want to give birth, keep this in mind as you consider your options and seek care.   This Week's Sponsors: Araza Beauty: Code HOMEBIRTH for 15% off Informed Pregnancy+   Join The Homebirth Collective Join Happy Homebirth Academy Code PODCAST for 10% off
