Podcasts about Cat

In this episode of Empower Podcast, we sit down with Cat Wade to talk about what it really looks like to build something meaningful—without having everything figured out.From juggling career, family, and big life transitions to stepping into entrepreneurship, Cat shares how taking action (even without a perfect plan) became the key to her success. Her story is a powerful reminder that growth doesn't come from overthinking—it comes from doing, learning, and staying excited along the way.This conversation is all about embracing uncertainty, trusting the process, and realizing you're capable of more than you think—even in the smallest pockets of time.If you've ever felt like you needed all the answers before starting, this episode will remind you: sometimes the best thing you can do is just begin. P.S. Consider this our “lost episode” that finally found its way out of the vault… only about two years later

TW: Some discussions of addictionWhat happens when someone you're not close to dies… and you're the one legally responsible?In this episode, I sit down with Cat, host of Call Her Cat, to talk about the death of her father—whom she was estranged from at the time of his passing. Despite the distance in their relationship, Cat stepped in as his Medical Power of Attorney, made end-of-life decisions, and arranged his funeral.We explore what it's like to grieve someone you had a complicated history with. The love that may have existed. The hurt that definitely did. The expectations from others. And the internal tug-of-war between duty, resentment, tenderness, and relief.You can find Cat's podcast here: https://unityyork.podbean.com/Want to Join the Good Grief Society?

Your toddler didn't come with a manual. Neither does your teenager and honestly? It's so much weirder.Cat & Nat are back pulling absolutely zero punches on the part of parenting nobody talks about: the older kids. The ones who can technically do their own laundry but somehow still can't. This week they're getting into garbage-bag parenting tactics, the totally different puzzle that is every single kid you raise, and the absolute fever dream of teaching a teenager to drive.Spoiler: someone gripped the dashboard. Someone else may have cried.Come for the chaos. Stay for the moment you realize you're not alone and maybe, just maybe, you're doing okay. Even if your dishwasher is still half-empty.

Cats are the most commonly owned pet in the United States — and yet they're dramatically underrepresented in veterinary visits compared to dogs. One big reason? The vet experience is often so stressful for cats, and so difficult for the people trying to handle them, that owners simply stop bringing them in.Today we're exploring the science and the solutions behind feline stress in clinical settings — why cats react the way they do, what that behavior is actually communicating, and how veterinary teams can create environments where cats feel safer.Joining us is Dr. Renee Rucinsky, a board-certified feline specialist, owner of Mid Atlantic Cat Hospital and Mid Atlantic Feline Thyroid Center in Maryland, and a respected voice in feline medicine through her lecturing and writing.Thanks for tuning in to the Purr Podcast with Dr. Susan and Dr. Jolle!If you enjoyed today's episode, don't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave us a review—it really helps other cat lovers and vet nerds find the show. Follow us on social media for behind-the-scenes stories, cat trivia, and the occasional bad pun. And remember: every day is better with cats, curiosity, and maybe just a little purring in the background. Until next time—stay curious, stay kind, and give your cats an extra chin scratch from us. The Purr Podcast – where feline medicine meets feline fun.

Have you ever had a vet tell you your cat is aggressive? You're not alone — and honestly, that label might be doing more harm than good. Today we're digging into what's actually going on when cats bite, scratch, or completely shut down at the vet, and what clinics can do differently to make the whole experience less awful for everyone involved.My guest is Dr. Renee Rucinsky, a board-certified feline specialist, owner of Mid Atlantic Cat Hospital and Mid Atlantic Feline Thyroid Center in Maryland, and someone who has dedicated her career to understanding cats on their own terms. She lectures and writes on feline medicine regularly, and she has a lot to say about how we talk about — and treat — cats in clinical settings.

Joining me for this episode is author-illustrator Kristine A. Lombardi. We have a chat about her latest children's book, Crouton.

Cat & Cloud Podcast  Cat & Cloud Coffee www.catandcloud.com/ Finding Joy in Every Season of Work: Part II – Ep #441 Summary In part two of this conversation on finding joy in every season of work, the team (Chris, Jared and Casey) digs deeper into the shift from barista life into leadership, ownership, and building something that lasts. Chris and Jared reflect on how early work experiences, both inspiring and dysfunctional, shaped the kinds of leaders they wanted to become and reinforced the importance of community, fun, and genuine human connection in coffee. The episode explores how easy it is for owners and leaders to lose sight of the original passion that got them started, especially under the pressure of business realities, but argues that joy can still be created intentionally through trust, teamwork, better systems, gratitude, and a commitment to improving the experience for both staff, guests and for yourself. Ultimately, it's a conversation about staying connected to purpose, remembering where you came from, having gratitude, and building workplaces where success and joy are not enemies.

Have you heard the phrase: "they fight like cats and dogs"? Well, this episode will show us exactly what that idiom means.It all started in the backyard with Melodybee and a very large harvest of loofah sponges. Our sweet Harold was just trying to be a helpful pup by answering the door with his special bionic thumbs, but—oh dear—a little accident turned into a big mystery in Mr. Honeybee's Garage!While Roger Robot works on a "durability upgrade," a mysterious new neighbor with sleek black fur and striking green eyes has snuck into the neighborhood. Is she the "wolf-bear" Melodybee is so excited to find? Or is she the reason Harold is suddenly acting so... incensed?Pack your curiosity and join us as we practice our mindful breathing and listen to our "quick thoughts" to solve this neighborhood puzzle. We'll follow the trail from the garden shed to the kitchen counters to see if a grumpy dog and a mischievous cat can ever truly find a way to share the Honeybee Neighborhood.

➡️ ➡️ DESCRIPTION: Après avoir entendu une défense biblique du pédobaptême réformé, nous poursuivons notre série en donnant la parole à la perspective crédobaptiste. Cette position, largement répandue dans les milieux évangéliques, affirme que le baptême est destiné à ceux qui professent personnellement la foi en Jésus-Christ. Elle met l'accent sur la conversion, la repentance et la foi consciente comme conditions du baptême. Cependant, ses fondements bibliques reposent sur une articulation distincte du plan rédempteur de Dieu et de la théologie biblique par laquelle nous relions l'Ancien et le Nouveau Testament. Le professeur Sylvain Romerowski de l'Institut biblique de Nogent-sur-Marne présente pour nous le bien-fondé de la compréhension baptiste. Vous pouvez retrouver les publications web du professeur Romerowski sur son blog à l'adresse suivante: https://sylvain-romerowski.ibnogent.org/ TABLE DES MATIÈRES 00:00 - Start 02:24 - Résumé de la compréhension credobatiste 05:51 - Le fondement vétérotestamentaire 14:59 - L'accomplissement néotestamentaire 21:32 - La mixité sous l'ancienne et sous la nouvelle alliance 29:31 - Le NT associe clairement le baptême à une profession de foi 36:37 - Le baptême est-il un moyen de grâce? 44:29 - Les conditions pour recevoir le baptême 48:29 - Quid des faux-disciples et la mixité de l'Église? 58:26 - L'efficacité du baptême 01:00:52 - Rejet de la théologie de l'alliance pédobaptiste 01:20:36 - Église visible et invisible = deux Églises? 01:28:00 - Quel est le statut des enfants dans l'Église?

People often refer to themselves as cat person or dog person, as well as meaning that they prefer this animal to the other, it implies that they identify with certain characteristics associated with their preferred pet, dogs are loyal, cats are smart, dogs can be trained to help people, cats cannot and so on.  The social psychologist Samuel D Gosling of the University of Texas studied the personality traits of so-called “dog people” and “cat people”. He found that cat people tend to score higher on neuroticism and openness to experiences, whereas dog people are more extroverted, agreeable and conscientious. Cat people tend to also be more sensitive, creative and curious, but more prone to anxiety and stress. Whereas dog people, on the other hand, are more sociable, cooperative and reliable, but also more conventional and conformist. But why do these personality traits match with our preference for cats or dogs? And what else makes someone a cat person? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Em 1979, o maior jogador brasileiro de xadrez da história mal conseguia se mexer. Trancado no seu apartamento, Mequinho sentia muita fraqueza e tinha medo de morrer a qualquer momento. O enxadrista teve que se afastar dos tabuleiros por causa da doença, que ele acreditava ser miastenia grave, e começou a frequentar um grupo de oração da Renovação Carismática Católica. No auge dessa crise, Mequinho recebeu em casa uma das pioneiras no país das sessões de cura, que se impressionou com a suposta graça instantânea alcançada. O enxandrista retomou os movimentos e passou a dizer que tinha sido curado por Jesus —não totalmente, mas 99%. Esse é um dos momentos de virada da vida de Mequinho, esquadrinhada por Uirá Machado, jornalista da Folha, na biografia recém-lançada "Entre Bispos e Reis". O livro narra a infância do garoto prodígio no interior do Rio Grande do Sul, a glória nos anos 1960 e 1970 e o fervor religioso que marcou a vida do enxadrista a partir da década de 1980. Convidado deste episódio, Uirá fala sobre a importância de Mequinho na história do esporte brasileiro e explica como o enxadrista trocou a obsessão pelos tabuleiros pela pregação religiosa —Mequinho passou a dizer nos últimos anos, por exemplo, que foi escolhido por Jesus como profeta do apocalipse.

It's the 300th episode of Cattitude, and Michelle Fern is celebrating in a big way with a very special guest: Valerie Bertinelli! From One Day at a Time to Hot in Cleveland, Valerie has been part of our lives for decades—but on this episode, cat lovers get to meet a whole different side of her: devoted cat mom, passionate animal lover, voracious reader, and the heart behind her new projects, including Getting Naked and Valerie's Place. Valerie shares hilarious and heartfelt stories about her feline family—Batman, Henry, Tigger, Bubba, and Beau—along with the chaos, cuddles, spraying, scratching, litter box drama, and unconditional love that come with life in a multi-cat household. She also opens up about vulnerability, grief, books, food, and why animals help us see ourselves with more compassion. It's funny, warm, deeply real, and the perfect way to mark this milestone episode of Cattitude.EPISODE NOTES: Valerie Bertinelli Talks Cats, Chaos & Cat Mom LifeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

This episode of Car Con Carne features Cat Ayala, the frontwoman for the Chicago band Scarlet Demore. James and Cat discuss the band's impressive trajectory, moving from DIY basement shows to playing Thalia Hall and Lincoln Hall and performing at Lollapalooza. The conversation covers several key areas: The Evolution of Sound: Cat explains the shift from their earlier melodic "pop" perspective to the heavier, more experimental, and post-grunge sound found on their upcoming full-length record. The Writing Process: A look into how Cat uses songwriting as a form of catharsis and why she often needs time and perspective to process emotions before putting them to paper. Life on the Road: The reality of "van feelings" and the mental toll of touring, contrasted with the excitement of their upcoming tour. Community and Representation: The importance of being a voice for young women in the music scene and creating a safe, supportive environment at their live shows. Scarlet Demore kicks off their tour at Beat Kitchen on May 8th, where fans can expect to hear plenty of new material. ### This episode is brought to you by Exploding House Printing.

The language of lifecycle engagement, continuous care relationships, and whole-person experience has fully colonized healthcare strategy decks. Marketing invested in journey maps. Leadership signed off on CRM platforms and digital front door initiatives. The consumer lifecycle is drawn on whiteboards in conference rooms across the country. And yet: the scheduling system still fills slots, not relationships. The EMR still closes the encounter at discharge. The call center still routes to availability, not context. The follow-up that fires after a visit is an automated survey, not a clinical touchpoint. The patient who received a personalized "we care about your whole health" email walks into an appointment where the provider has never seen it. Healthcare has rebranded the patient journey. It hasn't redesigned the organization that delivers it. Chris Boyer and Reed Smith examine the specific gap between what health systems promise through their consumer experience strategy and what patients actually encounter when the operational infrastructure hasn't changed: Why "consumer journey" became a marketing framework rather than an operational commitment — and what got left out when it did The post-discharge cliff: why most health systems treat discharge as an endpoint when a journey framework requires it to be a transition How scheduling logic, EMR workflows, and call center scripts were built for encounter resolution — not relationship continuity The channel handoff failure: why patients who begin digitally often restart from zero when they call or show up Who actually owns the seam between departments — and why the honest answer is usually nobody The episode ends with a direct challenge: before your organization launches its next lifecycle campaign or publishes its next patient journey map, someone should be able to answer a basic question. What is the operational commitment behind this? Not the technology investment. The operational commitment. If your CEO asked you today to show them where in the organization the consumer journey is operationally owned, could you give a straight answer?

After Mattel took a loss on the Clash of the Titans toys the almost did it again with Conan the Barbarian. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not so secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I’m Stephen’s sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today’s episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it’s us, but we’re highlighting ads we’ve written and produced for our clients. So here’s one of those. [Handyside Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to the Empire Builders Podcast, Dave Young here alongside Steven Semple, and we’re talking about empires, empires. And Steven whispered the subject of today’s empire in my ear, and I would’ve been hard-pressed to call it an empire because I don’t know all that much about it. But I think again, it’s cartoon property that happened after I was pretty much done watching cartoons. He-Man, right? As in He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, that He-Man? Stephen Semple: That He-Man. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: That He-Man. When you think about it, it’s toys. There’s been movies. There’s the cartoon. It’s pretty huge. Dave Young: Yeah. Okay. I’m anxious to hear about it. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: And is he the one that’s become kind of a meme, too? Like, there’s He-Man meme? Stephen Semple: Oh, sure. Oh, look, there’s a meme for everything today. So it’s really a story of lost opportunities, but at the same time, sort of seeing changes in the marketplace and doing some really interesting things because in 1975, The Six Million Dollar Man really changes action figures. Dave Young: Sure. Stephen Semple: Because to make an action figure, you’re only licensing from others, and it was product-orientated rather than brand-driven, and along came The Six Million Dollar Man, and it was a guy. Right? Dave Young: I mean, we were all running around going… Stephen Semple: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Dave Young: Pretend we could see, and hear, and lift things. Stephen Semple: Yeah. And along that time, out was coming the movie, The Clash of the Titans. And so there was this whole thing of, okay, let’s create action figures around Clash of the Titans. And the movie did poorly. And so the toys did poorly. And Mattel had been involved in that. And this shaped Mattel’s thinking because when Star Wars came along, Ray Wagner at Mattel passed on it because of his experience with Clash of the Titans. It’s like, “Well, we’re not doing this.” Dave Young: Wow, okay. Stephen Semple: Because again, they wanted to create the toy, right? The Star Wars they wanted to create the toys before the movie came out. So another movie comes along, Conan the Barbarian. Dave Young: Sure. Yeah. Stephen Semple: Right? And Mattel is like, “All right, we’re going to get all over this.” And they end up buying the license for Conan. They made samples, and they had all these expenses, and then Mattel discovers Conan the Barbarian is an R-rated movie. Dave Young: Yeah. No kids are going to see it. Stephen Semple: Can’t do it as a toy. Dave Young: Oh, no. Stephen Semple: But at the same time, they sort of started looking at all of these action figures that are out there, and all of the male figures are kind of wimpy. And they had started down this exploration of making a Conan the Barbarian style action figure. So they thought, why don’t we do this massive figure? And they first did these ones called Tankhead, and Bullet Head, and H-Man. And they wanted them to be comic book-like and bring action to the figure and how they stand. And they were making them bulkier and create this visual shelf presence and over-the-top muscles, all these ideas that they had drawn from Conan the Barbarian. Dave Young: All right. Stephen Semple: And what they also noticed is that when kids play with things, they want to have the power to do what they want to do. Dave Young: Absolutely. Stephen Semple: Which is where the line, “I have the power,” came from. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Where Conan holds up the sword, and he says, “Oh, I have the power.” Right? That whole idea came from watching kids play with toys. And in fact, a lot of the ideas that came from the toy play, they learned from watching girls play with Barbies in terms of- Dave Young: Makes sense. Stephen Semple: … how they do it and then the other- Dave Young: But you’re creating story on the fly. Stephen Semple: You’re creating story on the fly. Yeah. And you have the power to create your own story. And what they also noticed was while kids like thinking about dreaming about things in the future, they also like drawing upon things from the old, which is part of the reason why they created things like this Castle Grayskull, right? Yeah. Now, one of the other things that was really interesting about Castle Grayskull when they created it… Now, first of all, when they created it was very expensive. It was going to retail for like $20. And everyone said, “Well, no one’s going to buy this.” But the interesting thing is every castle was slightly different in terms of how that the paint happened on it. The way they were painting it, they actually discovered there was a manufacturing flaw in how they were painting it, and each one of the castles looked slightly different, and people were like, “Oh my God, all these castles are a little bit different.” And you’re like, “Perfect.” Dave Young: Collecting them? Stephen Semple: Well, no, they’re just like, it doesn’t need to be perfect. It doesn’t need to be exactly the same. That’s okay. And there was a point where they were getting ready to roll the characters out, and they ran out of money for tooling. They wanted to have a creature for He-Man to ride. And so they took a cat from another toy, painted a green, put a saddle on it, put armor on it, and all of a sudden, you had Battle Cat. So they’re creating all these things. They know there’s play value in it. They believe it’s going to stand out on the shelf because it’s now this big, bulky character and all this other stuff. But the business model for selling toys up to this point was TV shows, or in the case of Star Wars, movies. So you got no TV show, you got no movie, you’ve been running out of money even for tooling. So, how are you going to promote this character? Dave Young: Stay tuned. We’re going to wrap up this story and tell you how to apply this lesson to your business right after this. [Using Stories To Sell] Dave Young: Let’s pick up our story where we left off, and trust me, you haven’t missed a thing. Stephen Semple: The business model for selling toys up to this point was TV shows or in the case of Star Wars movies. So you got no TV show, you got no movie, you’ve been running out of money even for tooling. So, how are you going to promote this character? Dave Young: I mean, do you make the TV show? Stephen Semple: They didn’t have money for that. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: How are you going to tell the story? Well, what they did was they created little mini comics, and they put it in with every toy. Dave Young: Oh, beautiful. Stephen Semple: So they had these four different mini comics that came with the toys. And what they did is they went to DC who is producing comics, and they actually created also a three issue miniseries with DC where it was Superman versus He-Man. Dave Young: Oh, wow. Okay. Stephen Semple: Right? They changed the rules. You can now promote a toy without a TV show. They did it with the mini comics. Dave Young: Oh, that’s really cool. Stephen Semple: Now, the mini comics became so popular, and the toy became so popular, they now had the money to create the show. Dave Young: Okay. So it all came first the… Stephen Semple: Yes. And then the show, what the show forced them to do is create a better story and backstory, right? And then they created rules of how the characters are interacted and things along that lines. But what I thought that was really, really interesting in this whole story was, okay, so the business model is you need a TV show to make it work. So all the toys have been done up to that point. TV show to work. Star Wars was the exception. They spent all this money in the Conan and the Barbarian. They can’t end up doing it. They left all this stuff, create the toy anyway. And then it’s like, all right, how do we promote this? And what the guys recognized is it wasn’t about having the TV show, it was about having the story. So how could you do it? Mini comic book. Dave Young: I love it. Stephen Semple: Put it in with each toy. Right? So I just thought that that was really interesting because it would be easy to stop at that point and go, “Well, we can’t do this because there’s no show.” Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: There’s no show. And instead, they broke the mold and said, “No, it’s about the story.” Dave Young: Well, and so when was all this? This was in the late 80s, early or… Stephen Semple: Yeah, late… Yeah, mid 80s. Dave Young: Mid 80s, late 80s? Stephen Semple: Yeah, mid to late 80s is when all this was going on. Dave Young: And so it’s why it has survived and become so… There are so many memes from it. There’s He-Man, and there’s Skeletor. There’s a lot of Skeletor memes out there. Stephen Semple: Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Dave Young: But there’s a whole generation that grew up with this. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: Yeah. I love it. Stephen Semple: Yeah. So to me, again, the part that was sort of interesting on He-Man is just again, finding this different way to do it, but recognizing what the power was in the show. While kids want to make things up, it’s almost like they need a little story to help them along. Dave Young: Yeah, absolutely. I will admit that I’m too old for He-Man. It was after my cartoon-watching time. Was it yours? Do you have any… Stephen Semple: You and I are the same Dave Young: Yeah, same demographic there. Stephen Semple: Same demographic. It was like ’81, ’82 was kind of when it was first launched. The movie came much later. Dave Young: I remember hearing it, maybe, and then I also had girls, and they were not so much into He-Man. Stephen Semple: Right. Yeah. Dave Young: So cool. Stephen Semple: And in fact, in 2002, they did a reboot of it, The New Adventures of He-Man, and then there was a Netflix series. And seemingly in 2020, there’s a Netflix He-Man series that I didn’t know anything about. Dave Young: So what’s the disposition of it? It’s still going? Stephen Semple: Yeah. And it’s owned by Mattel. Dave Young: Still in production? Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Okay. Very cool. Not being a He-Man or He-Man fan. I feel at a loss, Stephen, that I have nothing else to ask you about He-Man. [inaudible 00:12:39]- Stephen Semple: All right. Dave Young: But I appreciate learning about him, and I wish him well. Nothing but success for He-Man and his friends. Stephen Semple: Long live Skeletor. Dave Young: Well, thank you, Stephen. Stephen Semple: Skeletor. Dave Young: I know the voice, right? I mean, I remember the voice. Yeah. Very cool. Stephen Semple: Yeah. And the great laugh that Skeletor has.

On this heartfelt episode of Cattitude, host Michelle Fern welcomes author Josephine Spence to talk about her touching book A Cat's Tail,, told from the perspective of her beloved cat, Onkyo. Through humor, warmth, and deeply emotional moments, Josephine shares the remarkable 19-year bond she had with Onkyo—from mischievous Christmas tree adventures to the quiet comfort a cat can bring during life's most difficult times. The conversation explores the powerful connection between cats and their humans, the lessons Onkyo taught about slowing down and appreciating life, and the profound grief that comes with losing a cherished pet. If you've ever loved a cat, this beautiful story of loyalty, companionship, and enduring love will resonate deeply.EPISODE NOTES: A Cat's Tail: The Love, Life & Legacy of OnkyoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

Cat & Cloud Podcast  Cat & Cloud Coffee www.catandcloud.com/ Finding Joy in Every Season of Work: Part I – Ep #440 Summary In this episode, Chris and Jared (plus Casey) reflect on the early days that pulled us into specialty coffee and how those experiences shaped the work we're still doing today. From skateboarding friendships and barista competitions to building cafés and leading teams, we talk about how the things that bring joy evolve over time. As careers grow and responsibilities expand, the work changes—and sometimes the parts you loved most become harder to hold onto. We explore the idea that every season of life and business brings different sources of meaning, and that part of the real work is finding the through lines that keep the joy alive. This conversation looks back at where it all started while asking an ongoing question: how do you stay connected to the things that made you love the work in the first place?

Jared Leto was the reigning Joker. Todd Phillips couldn't get the films he wanted to do off the ground. The DC range of movies was having a whole range of challenges for Warner Bros. And constant changes at the studio were leading to regular challenges of direction. In the midst of this, a relatively slim production, Joker, would have notable ramifications. Similarly slim, Cat's Eye marks the first credited screenplay for a man called Stephen King. But this too had challenges, when the original financing plan fell apart. And then, another film - Firestarter - had a bit of a knock-on effect... Stories of both are told in this episode. Please like/subscribe/leave nice reviews. Thank you!
