Getting a first-hand look at the daily lives of farmers is an excellent way to help the public understand where their food comes from. Last year, during my travels across the U.K. and Europe, I had the chance to spend time with Pete and Paula Hynes, dairy farmers in Cork, Ireland. Not only are they experts in their field, but they also excel at sharing their experiences through mainstream media and social platforms. Paula explains that showcasing their farm helps highlight the family-oriented nature of Irish dairy farming. "We're passionate about our cows and our people," she says. "We share everything—the good, the bad, the ugly. There's no point in only showing the pretty side. Cows die, calves die. It's important to show it all."

A lot of women come to us and say, ‘I'm just so frustrated my doctor's not helping me. I can't seem to get the right help.' And you just you have to really demand for answers, and if you're not getting answers, you need to change doctors.”“Women's Health is still very underfunded and I think female founders are still very underfunded.”“Every twist and turn to your career, even if you feel like it's a sideways move, can really help you grow.

23 August 2024 — CAPE COD, MA — New parents struggling with perinatal mood disorders during pregnancy or after the birth of a child are far from alone, but fear, judgement, and impossible standards keep people from seeking help, and a lack of certified health practitioners makes it even more difficult for Cape parents to find it. Efforts have begun to train professionals and change the conversation from shame to support.

How the language we use puts the blame/focus on women while taking men out of the equation completely.

Cheri Paige Fogelman, Brooke's long-time friend and a personal trainer with a background in modern dance and overall PHAT girl doesn't believe that we should beat ourselves up if we show up with only 10% to give to a workout or, heck, even life on any given day. How many times have you heard THAT from a personal trainer? Usually it's "NO PAIN NO GAIN" and who wants pain? And especially who wants to PAY for PAIN? (Well, some folks might but...thaaaaat's a different podcast episode!) Many of us grew up in the days of The Biggest Loser with the one and only Jillian Michaels who was constantly telling us to push ourselves to the max...or else. Cheri's approach helps us learn to listen to our bodies and minds and their wonderful cues (which aren't always brought out by pushing them). She's still "bad to the bone" (as Brooke's dad would say). Cheri has a background in modern dance, was a rower in college at UNC Chapel Hill, is a mom, wrote a book AND still manages to find time to train her clients and herself. But, the all or nothing or go big or go home approaches aren't how she got there.

“Take your time, decide on one thing that you're going to focus on, and keep coming back.” - Pamela WindleThe workplace is where women spend most of their time, and far too often, they're leaving because they've lost sight of themselves due to the transition into menopause.

Pro Tips on Changing the Conversation from Ian Lynch [caption id="attachment_12739" align="alignleft" width="373"] Ian Lynch with his newest Dawin Poodle, Portia.[/caption] Canadian Kennel Club spokesperson Ian Lynch joins host Laura Reeves to talk about changing the conversation on purebred dogs with the general public. Lynch, a broadcaster in his day job, brings his passion for purebred dogs to the CKC as their public spokesman. He describes his lifelong obsession with the sport, obtaining the Dogs in Canada Annual magazine and creating a “vision board” with pages from the book taped to his wall. His first dog as an adult was a Dawin standard poodle. “I used to get “Dogs in Canada” annuals and I used to put all the pictures on my walls because I love these dogs. And I had a picture on my wall in 1995. It was an Allison Alexander in a red dress, holding Dawin High Falutin, who was the number one dog and has all these records to this day. His name was Lutin, I believe his call name. And it's funny because as I get older, I realized that I was making a vision board because now I have a Dawin dog. [caption id="attachment_12740" align="alignright" width="266"] Ian Lynch and Allison Alexander, from vision board to friends.[/caption] “And I'm friends with Allison Alexander and she's the greatest person alive. So, it's so funny that like, you know, that you hear almost like manifestation stuff and I didn't know what I was doing. But as a kid, I used to always have the picture of the Dawin dog and I used to tell my parents, ‘I'm gonna have a dog just like that one day.' Don't just talk. Listen! Lynch recommends we just talk to people about dogs. And not just talk, listen also! On topics from training to doodles, listening to what people say gives you a chance to address their actual concerns and increase buy in to the information you do have to share. “The easiest way for me, I think, to start talking to people about purebred dogs is to talk to everyone who has a dog. “For example, there's this lady on my street. She has this pitbull mix. And this dog was so reactive to my dogs all the time. I mean jumping in midair. And then, I noticed that from a distance, she taught the dog the look at me, you know, the treat out. And I stopped her and I said, ‘Sorry to bother you, I just want to congratulate you and let you know that I've noticed how good you're doing with this dog and how far your dog has come.' And she says to me, ‘Oh my God, thank you. I've always admired your dogs. What kind of dogs are they? Are they show dogs? Where are dog shows? Where can I learn more about these dogs?' Simply talking to people about dogs. “The way I think a lot of times, I'm lucky I have a radio show. I can infuse dogs. I got the mic. I got the platform. But we can all infuse dogs into our life at all times. When you have people over, my dogs are generally always well-groomed and bathed, basically weekly, but you want to make sure your dogs will look good if people are coming over. “They smell good, they're cuddly. I'm a big proponent of best self and make sure your dogs are their best self when people come over and, you know, people ask questions. Another thing we have to do is when we talk to people about dogs is we have to let people talk as well. “We know a lot about dogs. We want to voice our opinions, but we have to let people talk.”

This week, we discuss one of the issues that will be driving the conversation this election year, and a corresponding Texas Impact event, as we welcome leaders from Friends Congregational Church in College Station: Sr. Pastor Rev.

Today's episode is an opportunity to speak Nicole Drewnick, who is the current setter for Notre Dame. Nicole's journey is one unlike many others. Her volleyball journey began growing up in a club volleyball gym owned by her parents, who were both successful professional athletes. Nicole takes us through what the recruiting process was like as a top setter in her recruiting class, how she made her decision, and what she might do differently. Nicole shines the light on her time on campus, which includes graduating a year early and enrolling in college during what should have been her senior year of high school, her struggles as well as her victories, throughout her time playing for three Power 5 programs. Having gone through the recruiting process in HS, and now twice through the transfer portal, Nicole offers some interesting feedback for not only young players just starting out the recruiting process, but also for other collegiate players as well about how to make the most of your time on campus. Nicole and I discuss some of the struggles with the college recruiting process and it's current rules, and start the conversation on how we can help guide players to make the most informed decisions that they can! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/brett-sikora-downtheline/message

Erin shares her motivation behind creating Totem Women and Chamber of Mothers and their mission to provide services to women in the workplace and beyond. They discuss the struggle for paid leave in the United States, advocating for women's reproductive freedom, and the unequal distribution of labor within households. Erin also shares her worst advice and the harm it caused her. The speakers encourage men to take responsibility and join their advocacy work to improve the situation for mothers across the country. Here is what to expect on this week's show: - Why paid parental leave is crucial for bonding and caring for newborns, promoting their health and development, reducing financial hardship, and maintaining employment - The challenging process passing paid leave as a law - The result of gendered division of labor in caregiving - Why developing an advocacy blueprint and building a leadership team are crucial steps in creating effective advocacy campaigns for paid leave policies.   Quotes: “I felt like I just couldn't unsee the world through the lens of a woman who had become a mother, particularly from the standpoint that there was 0 cultural acknowledgment of this massive transition that a woman goes through when she becomes a mother.” - Erin Erenberg “I think this all boils down to, including with Roe, etcetera, is that for some reason in this country, women are second class citizens.” – Jennifer Justice “What I think about is, what's my complicity in [crappysystems]? What are the ways in which I show up throughout the day that I'm complicit? What are some of the institutionalized toxic lies that I've taken in? And how can I be better about that?” Resources: Chamber of Mothers Instagram: @chamberofmothers http://www.chamberofmothers.com/ Totum Women Instagram: @totumwomen https://www.totumwomen.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

What does it mean to you to be broken? To be normal? And who gets to decide what it means to be broken or whole?We live in a culture obsessed with fixing anything deemed broken - from stuff to people.We need to create spaces where we do not see difference as broken.And we do this by not settling for our current ways of navigating our discomfort with difference while pushing back on the burdened definition of what is normal and what is broken.But inclusion is inconvenient. It is also uncomfortable. And awkward. Facing your discomfort with difference and neurodivergence means facing your ableism. Which is why I was so excited and honored to talk with today's guest. His book is a beautiful testament to so those with neurodivergence and other intersectional identities that have been marginalized. It is written beautifully and is now my number one recommend when people ask for a book to read about autism.Eric Garcia is the senior Washington correspondent for the Independent and the author of the book We're Not Broken: Changing the Autism Conversation. He is also a columnist for MSNBC. He previously worked as an assistant editor at the Washington Post's Outlook section and an associate editor at The Hill, as well as a correspondent for National Journal, MarketWatch, and Roll Call. He has also written for the Daily Beast, the New Republic, and Salon.com. Garcia is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.Listen to the full episode to hear:How Eric connected the dots between bad or debunked ideas about autism and bad public policy around autism and neurodivergenceWhy Eric maintained a journalist's approach to his book, rather than writing a personal memoirHow a chance conversation led to Eric's wrestling with his fear of being “outed” and internalized ableismHow Eric navigated consent and inspiration or pity “porn” when sharing other autistic people's storiesHow Eric has recontextualized the asterisks on his successes and taken ownership of his accomplishmentsLearn more about Eric Garcia:WebsiteTwitter: @EricMGarciaWe're Not Broken: Changing the Autism ConversationLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:Electable: Why America Hasn't Put a Woman in the White House . . .

Hey lady! You're in for a treat with this week's episode. Yvette Nicole Brown stops by the Cultivating H.E.R. Space podcast to have some fun girl talk with Dr. Dom and Terri. Yvette brings her warm personality and positive energy to discuss an initiative that is dear to her heart – It's Bigger Than Me. The movement helps shine a light on obesity and addresses some myths about obesity, primarily that it is a disease and nothing to be ashamed of even though feelings of shame are normal and understandable. Yvette offers her unique perspective on being in the spotlight through her decades-long career in the entertainment industry. If you struggle with your weight or love someone who does then tune in so you can add ways to be kinder to yourself into your toolkit. It's all about perspective and hopefully, this conversation brightens yours. Quote of the Day:“The truth is, navigating obesity and our health can come with moments of success and setbacks. So, we must be prepared to push through those moments when our internal voice tells us to give up.” - Yvette Nicole BrownWhere to find Yvette Nicole Brown:IG: @yvettenicolebrownTwitter: @YNBLinkedIn: Yvette Nicole BrownWebsite: It's Bigger Than Me Register here for the Vibrate Higher Empowerment Workshop!
