Stephen takes us on a journey through the intricate layers of consciousness, urging us to examine our fundamental perceptions and assumptions about reality. Through rigorous self-inquiry and a deep exploration of the self, he challenges us to go beyond the limitations of our conditioned minds and embrace a state of profound peace and clarity. Although it cannot be sought out, a quiet mind may be necessary to adequately address the ongoing challenges facing humanity. Join us as we uncover the transformative power of the quiet mind and its potential to revolutionize our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.Stephen is a former educator at Brockwood Park School, where he had personal contact with Krishnamurti.

Black and African American people diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD) face disparities in healthcare access and outcomes, potentially leading to decreased access to care, resources, and research opportunities. It is crucial to recognize their unique needs and experiences so that scientists can better understand how PD impacts diverse communities. The Parkinson's Foundation aims to identify these healthcare disparities to better serve and support the community. In this first episode of our Black History Month special, Kimberly Gamble, Program Coordinator at Atrium Health, and Lance Wilson, Licensed Social Worker and Center Coordinator at Jefferson Health's Comprehensive Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Center, share real-life examples of outreach strategies that they have used when engaging with the Black and African American community to dispel common misconceptions about research studies, and emphasize the importance of representing and showing up for your community.

He's competed and coached at a high level most of his life. But he's also very partial to his hometown. So when he heard about plans to convert the Racquet Club into a training center for Chillicothe student-athletes, he wanted to be a part. That's only part of the story about how Zach returned home (for a second time) and now helps create an elite training center for Chillicothe students - and how it's poised to become a shining star for Ross County.

As Parkinson’s disease (PD) progresses into its advanced stages, symptoms can become increasingly difficult to manage. At some point, the person with PD and care partners may consider hospice services, which can optimize the quality of life for the person and the family. Whether the person resides at home, in an assisted living facility, or in a nursing home, hospice can come to them. Hospice is really part of palliative care, which aims to relieve the burden of a disease not only near the end of life but all along its course. Both the terms “palliative care” and “hospice” are often misunderstood, and certain myths surround them.   This podcast is the first of a two-part series on hospice and palliative care. In this first episode, Jessica Shurer, MSW, LCSW, Clinical Social Worker and Center Coordinator of the Movement Disorders Center at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, a Parkinson’s Foundation Center of Excellence, helps to dispel some of the misunderstanding about hospice. She describes what hospice is, how it operates, and when and how to consider it. Moreover, she highlights the medical, psychological, and logistical benefits it can bring to the person with PD and to care partners.

RARE MAMAS RISING - EPISODE 3 Happy, But Different with Boston Children's Epilepsy Center Coordinator & Rare Mom Colleen Gagnon Colleen Gagnon is the Clinical Coordinator of the Epilepsy Center at Boston Children's Hospital, a nurse, and a rare disease mom herself. Her daughter Niamh was diagnosed with a rare genetic mutation of the brain called Subcortical Band Heterotopia. That diagnosis came with a myriad of other diagnoses, including epilepsy, cerebral palsy, and autism. In this episode, Colleen shares valuable insights from her perspective as both a medical professional and a mother. From the importance of allowing yourself to grieve your child's diagnosis to how parents can effectively collaborate with their child's care team and how life with a rare disease is often different but can be happy—Colleen shares it all! EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS How did you enter the world of rare disease? My daughter was born prematurely at 34 weeks, was healthy but small. From the beginning, I had an instinct that something was different. She woke up fussy and crying and then began having seizures. The MRI results were shared with us at the hospital, and we found that Niamh had a brain malfunction called Subcortical Band Heterotopia. What advice do you have for parents to effectively collaborate with their care team? Find a good nurse because they can coordinate things and get things done for you. I always appreciate parents who are asking questions and want to know more as long as it's not adversarial, too intense, or confrontational when approaching the care team. Be an advocate, be honest, be open, and be transparent. Have a realistic sense that you don't have 24-hour access to your healthcare team, and they're doing their best to tend to everyone. I think many nurses and physicians go into this field because they do have a deep sense of wanting to help people and make a difference. So you're working with people who came into this field for that reason, so really, we're more allies.  What have you learned through parenting Niamh that has helped you professionally? When your child has a chronic illness, challenging behaviors, and a significant intellectual disability, it's hard to talk about, and sometimes there's a stigma. I see parents struggle with it. I want to tell them that I know how you feel, it's okay, you're not alone. I can give those parents the advice that they need to be part of a group and community. They need that support. Because of my experiences, I have an extra sense of knowing what parents need and what I can offer. What advice do you have for parents who have a new diagnosis? Be patient, especially through therapies. Look at things over time instead of day-by-day to see improvements because they're not going to be instant. Don't give up on something too soon. Don't let your child's rare disease overtake your life. Find joy in your family, in your other children, and with your partner. Move on and find your place beyond the disease. You'll have great moments in life; it's not all sad. With patience and time, you'll find joy. You can lead a very happy life. It might look different, but it can still be happy.

Given the differences women may encounter when dealing with their Parkinson’s Disease (PD), the Parkinson’s Foundation is leading the first national effort to address gender disparities in Parkinson’s research and care as part of an overall Women and PD Initiative. The Women and PD Teams to Advance Learning and Knowledge project (Women and PD TALK, for short) aims to develop new patient-centered recommendations to improve the health of women living with PD. Over the two-year term of the project, a national network of ten sites is engaging experts in the patient, research, and health care communities to identify women’s needs, prioritize solutions, and create the recommendations. Using these insights, the Parkinson’s Foundation and leadership teams will develop action plans to improve Parkinson’s care for women. In this podcast, Megan Feeney, a Senior Manager in the Community Engagement Department of the Parkinson’s Foundation, and Jessica Shurer, Clinical Social Worker and Center Coordinator of the Parkinson’s Foundation Center of Excellence at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, discuss the reasons for the project, the personnel involved in it, how it will run, and its goals. While the project is just starting, it is already producing actionable insights.
