He was put on child support at just 12 years old.By the time Lionel “TJ” Tillman learned what had happened, he says he was already $24,000 in debt—despite the court determining that he had not reached puberty when the child was conceived.After fighting the case for more than two decades, proving that the process involved extrinsic fraud, and eventually recovering his money, TJ is no longer focused solely on his personal battle.Now, he is taking the system to Congress.In this powerful episode of Inside the Vault with Ash Cash, TJ introduces the proposed Bringing Families Back Together and Child Support Equity Act of 2027—a bill created to promote equal parenting, due process, financial fairness, transparency, and healthier relationships between children and both fit and present parents.Ash and TJ examine some of the most controversial questions surrounding family court and child support:Can someone be held financially responsible without being the biological father?Why are some parents learning about child-support orders only after their wages are garnished?Are government incentives helping families—or rewarding separation?And why should a parent who is actively fighting to be present automatically be treated like an absent parent?TJ also makes one thing clear: this is not a “get out of responsibility” movement. He believes parents who refuse to support their children should be held accountable.His fight is for fairness, equal parenting, proper notice, due process, and a system that puts the well-being of children ahead of conflict between adults.This is not about mothers versus fathers.It is about choosing the children.Watch until the end to learn how you can support the petition, help bring the proposed legislation before Congress, and become part of a national movement to strengthen families.Sign the petition: change.org/childrenneedbothChapters00:00 – He was put on child support at 12 years old 01:08 – Message for entrepreneurs, coaches and business owners 02:05 – Protecting the family is a generational investment 03:04 – The Bringing Families Back Together and Child Support Equity Act 03:55 – “Take care of your children—this is not a free pass” 05:21 – Who is Lionel “TJ” Tillman? 05:38 – Put on child support at 12 and $24,000 in debt 06:32 – Could he have biologically fathered the child? 07:15 – Declared the legal father despite the court's findings 08:53 – Why outdated policies need to change 09:34 – Why TJ is taking the system to Congress 10:12 – Education, policy and prevention 11:18 – Does due process apply in family court? 11:51 – Equal parenting should begin at birth 12:53 – Georgia's legitimation process explained 14:11 – The $755 million child-support incentive claim 15:11 – Why TJ is pursuing federal reform 15:45 – Incentivizing families to stay together 17:25 – No parent should have to fight for their children 17:46 – Fathers ask for joint legal and physical custody 18:34 – How public assistance affected the family structure 19:35 – Who determines whether a parent is fit? 21:18 – Why must parents fight for more time with their children? 22:00 – “You want support, but you don't want support” 22:29 – TJ announces The Family Code podcast 22:39 – The hidden trauma families refuse to discuss 24:02 – Why TJ challenges the child-support system 24:17 – The Fourteenth Amendment and parental rights 26:47 – How claims can be presumed valid until challenged 27:43 – Proper notice before enforcement actions 28:17 – Discovering child support through wage garnishment 30:00 – Finding out on payday that half his check was gone 32:10 – Personal service versus substitute service 33:13 – Vindication after a 22-year fight 34:00 – The forged signature and vacant-house service 35:00 – Paying child support for 11 years 37:26 – Filing an insurance claim against Los Angeles County 38:30 – How TJ finally recovered his money 39:20 – Helping parents challenge their cases 40:15 – Why he refuses to assist irresponsible parents 41:41 – Raising his daughter as a single father 43:00 – Why children may need both parents 44:40 – The child-support-to-prison pipeline 46:47 – Are urban communities being disproportionately targeted? 48:14 – Is TJ trying to weaken child-support laws? 48:34 – Child support should apply to absent parents 49:22 – Equal parental rights and the “noncustodial” label 50:00 – Handling difficult co-parenting and parental alienation 51:10 – Support beyond money: emotional and physical presence 52:00 – Parenting education, therapy and conflict resolution 54:00 – What America could look like if the bill passes 56:47 – How viewers can support the proposed legislation 57:17 – TJ's direct appeal to Congress 58:25 – This is not men versus women 58:36 – Putting children ahead of pride and conflict 59:41 – “This is not an attack on women, men or child support” 1:00:04 – How to connect with TJ and the foundation 1:00:32 – Closing the VaultAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Back-to-school season is packed with emotions like joy, nerves, excitement, and a whole lot of worry about what's to come. That's why in this episode I'm sharing eight tiny tweaks that have helped my kids (and me!) face new seasons with courage. From creating side-by-side conversations and normalizing anxiety, to adding comfort anchors, practicing new situations, and celebrating milestones, these small shifts make a big difference in helping kids flex their “fear muscle.” Rooted in my experiences as a former first-grade teacher and now as a mom to four, this conversation is all about giving our kids the tools to navigate uncertainty with resilience while reminding us as parents that our role isn't to remove the hard things, but to walk with our kids through them. This episode will encourage you to approach back-to-school with fresh eyes, practical ideas, and a little more peace as you help your children step bravely into the year ahead. Mentioned in This Episode:

As part of our 5-Year Anniversary Summer Series, we're bringing back one of the most impactful parenting conversations in Securely Attached history.   Few moments are more heartbreaking than hearing your child say, "I'm stupid," "I'm a bad kid," "I hate myself," or even, "I wish I wasn't here." Our instinct is often to reassure them, convince them they're wrong, or make those painful feelings disappear as quickly as possible. But what if those words are actually your child's way of communicating something much deeper?   In this conversation, Dr. Emily Upshur joins me to explore what negative self-talk is really telling us, how to respond in the moment, and how to help children build resilience, confidence, and a healthier inner voice over time.   Together we discuss:   What children are often trying to communicate when they use harsh or self-critical language. Why our first instinct to reassure or correct may not be the most helpful response. What to say in the moment when your child says, "I'm stupid," "I'm a bad kid," or "I hate myself." How to respond differently with preschoolers, school-age children, and older kids. Why it's important to look beneath the words to the feelings driving them. How to recognize when negative self-talk is becoming a repeated pattern. Why calm, connected debriefs are often more effective than trying to solve everything in the moment. Practical ways to build resilience, confidence, and a growth mindset in everyday life. How to model healthy self-talk and coping skills for your child. Why these moments, while unsettling, can become powerful opportunities for connection and emotional growth.   This conversation offers a compassionate framework for responding to some of the most difficult things a child can say. Rather than reacting from fear or rushing to make the feelings disappear, we remind you that these moments are invitations to connect, understand what your child is really experiencing, and help them develop the emotional skills they'll carry with them for years to come.     ⭐ Celebrating 5 Years of Securely Attached ⭐   If you've enjoyed the podcast over the years, we'd love your help celebrating this milestone. Our birthday wish is simple: five stars for five years. If these conversations have supported you and your family, please consider leaving a five-star review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen. Your support helps more parents discover the show and allows us to continue bringing these conversations to families around the world.

In this episode, Dr. Tony breaks down the Cell Danger Response, the research behind why a child's cells shut down energy production, and why that shutdown is actually the nervous system doing exactly what it's designed to do when it senses ongoing threat. He explains why supplements, red light therapy, and NAD+ can feed the cell the raw materials for energy, but none of it holds if the nervous system is still stuck broadcasting danger.You'll learn about the three stages of subluxation, why an upper cervical brainstem subluxation can send a global distress signal to every cell in the body, and why movement, the neurosensory motor system, and the exhausted cerebellum are quietly draining more energy than anything else.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”A billionaire-by-today's-standards heiress walks away from New York high society, gets disinherited for becoming Catholic, and ends up in a poor mountain town because a stigmatic friar tells her to stay. That's Mary Pyle, and her hidden life helps explain why devotion to Padre Pio spread so far, especially among American soldiers who came home changed. We sit down with author Susan De Bartoli, secretary of the board of the Padre Pio Foundation of America and founder of Little Flower Pilgrimages, to tell Mary's story. ...Mary's early sense that “something was missing,” her years working with Maria Montessori as a multilingual assistant, and the moment Padre Pio looks at her and calmly claims her future: “This time you remain.” Then the wartime stories hit. Susan recounts the WWII bombing mission reportedly stopped by a monk in the sky, and how GIs later recognize Padre Pio's face, along with images of Our Lady holding the Child and Saint Michael with a sword. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the story.Padre Pio's American Daughter: The Story of Mary PyleVisit the site of Padre Pio and more!

Back-to-school season is here, and while parents are busy shopping for backpacks, lunchboxes, and school supplies, one of the most important tools for a successful school year often gets overlooked: sleep.

In this episode, you'll learn: The difference between a child who is "getting by" versus truly thriving How much sleep elementary school children actually need Why sleep before learning, after learning, and before a test all matter How sleep impacts learning, memory, behavior, emotional regulation, and anxiety Why sleep deprivation can mimic ADHD symptoms The surprising way a small amount of lost sleep affected Allison's daughter's grades How to shift your child's sleep schedule before school begins Why catching your child's natural "sleep wave" makes bedtime easier How to avoid the bedtime second wind Simple evening habits that promote better sleep When to use an earlier "rescue bedtime" during the school year Chapter Markers  00:00 Welcome + Why I'm Writing a Maine Family Travel Guide 02:28 Intro: Why Sleep Is an Elementary School Superpower 03:35 Is Your Child Just Getting By…or Truly Thriving? 05:57 How Much Sleep Do Elementary Schoolers Really Need? 08:56 Why Sleep Matters for Learning, Behavior & Anxiety 11:28 The UVA Basketball Experiment: How Two Hours of Lost Sleep Changed My Daughter's Grades 14:22 How to Shift Your Child's Schedule Before School Starts 16:04 Why Earlier Bedtimes Often Work Better (The "Second Wind" Explained) 18:55 Evening Habits That Help Kids Fall Asleep Faster 19:48 Resources: The Well-Rested Student Workshop & Sleep Consultations 20:35 Key Takeaways for a Successful School Year  Resources mentioned: Get more help with Allison's on demand workshop, The Well-Rested Student: Helping Your Child Sleep Better This School Year or with a one on one consultation  Related episodes: Episode 236.

Watching your child be ignored hurts. You want to step in, fix it and make it stop. Before you do, listen to this conversation. Justin and Kylie answer a question from a mum whose young sons are being shut out by older neighbourhood kids. They share practical ways to help children handle rejection, build confidence and develop friendships that last. KEY POINTS Why children grow when they're part of solving the problem.

Simple ways to build stronger relationships with neighbouring families. Why avoiding difficult situations can make them harder over time. How to help your child invest in the friendships that matter.

If you've been asking yourself, why does my child melt down over everything, you're not alone. Learn why emotional outbursts are often signs of nervous system overload—not bad behavior. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge shares her Regulation First Parenting™ approach to help families create lasting calm and connection.Every parent has experienced it—that moment when asking your child to put on a shirt, turn off Roblox, or brush their teeth suddenly leads to tears, yelling, or total shutdown. It feels confusing because the reaction seems so much bigger than the situation.The good news? The meltdown isn't usually about the shirt, the game, or the transition. It's often the final drop in an already overflowing stress cup.Once you understand what's happening in your child's nervous system, everything starts to make more sense—and your parenting becomes far more effective.Why Does My Child Melt Down Over Everything?When your child's reaction feels completely out of proportion, it's natural to assume they're being defiant. But it's important to remember that behavior is communication.A meltdown often signals that your child's nervous system has become overwhelmed long before the explosion happened. School stress, lack of sleep, sensory overload, anxiety, social demands, or difficult transitions can all quietly fill their "stress cup."Key takeaways:Behavior is the symptom—not the root problem.Small triggers often become the "last straw."Neurotypical children dysregulate too, though neurodivergent kids may experience it more often.Imagine your child happily playing a game all afternoon. The request to stop isn't what caused the meltdown—it simply overflowed an already full nervous system.

Few things frustrate parents more than trying to have an important conversation with a child or teen and hearing, “I don't care” or “I don't know.” It can feel dismissive, disrespectful, avoidant, or even scary. Parents may start wondering: Do they really not care? Are they lying? Are they avoiding responsibility? Am I losing influence?In this episode of The Art of Raising Humans, Kyle and Sara talk about what may actually be happening underneath these common responses. They explain why “I don't care” can be a form of armor, why “I don't know” can be a shutdown response, and why pushing harder often makes kids more defensive instead of more honest. You'll learn how to stay calm, lower the pressure without lowering the boundary, and help your child move from defensiveness into reflection, responsibility, and repair. Kyle and Sara also share practical ways to respond to kids ages 8–18, including what younger kids, tweens, and teens may need when they seem shut down or checked out. This episode is especially helpful for parents who want to reduce power struggles, build emotional intelligence, strengthen connection, and guide their child with calm leadership instead of fear. When your child says, “I don't care” or “I don't know,” try not to chase the words. Look underneath. Behind both phrases is often a child who feels overwhelmed, ashamed, confused, or unsure how to move forward. Listen to this episode to learn how to respond with connection, clarity, and confidence. View the full podcast transcript at: https://www.artofraisinghumans.com/when-your-child-says-i-dont-care-or-i-dont-know Visit our website and social media channels for more valuable content for your parenting journey. Resource Website: https://www.artofraisinghumans.comVideo Courses: https://art-of-raising-humans.newzenler.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/artofraisinghumansInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/artofraisinghumansPodcast Website: https://www.theartofraisinghumans.comBook List:https://www.artofraisinghumans.com/booklist The Art of Raising Humans podcast should not be considered or used as counseling but for educational purposes only.

Episode 81 of the Unspoken Words podcast features Dr. Elisa Shipon-Blum and Dr. Jenna Blum returning to the foundation of it all — what S-CAT, or Social Communication Anxiety Treatment, really is, and just as importantly, what it's not. Prompted by families who reached out to the SMart Center still confused about the approach, Dr. E and Dr. Jenna make the case that the question so many parents ask — "How do I get my child to talk?" — is the wrong one. The better question is why is my child not communicating in this situation, because not speaking is only a symptom of something deeper.At the heart of the episode is a simple truth: this is a whole-person approach, not a Band-Aid for a single behavior. Using Dr. Jenna's "cake" analogy, they explain that every child is made of different ingredients — and that missing even one can mean missing a pivotal piece of the picture. That's why selective mutism is best understood not by its stigmatizing name, but as a social communication anxiety disorder with underlying "whys," and why the SM Evaluation is the essential first step in ruling those whys in or out.Dr. E and Dr. Jenna explain why S-CAT is a recipe of evidence-based approaches rather than any single therapy — blending CBT, behavioral exposures, motivational interviewing, insight-oriented work, and intensive parent management. They walk through the baseline stages of the Social Communication Bridge®, the feelings chart and the "sweet spot" that keeps kids growing without tipping into avoidance, and the parent's role as the driver of real progress. Along the way, real stories bring it to life — from a teen learning to get his own tickets at a Phillies game to a nine-year-old who needed structure long after her mutism resolved.The episode closes on a powerful reminder: the longer selective mutism lingers, the more likely it is that a "why" has been missed — and that with the right understanding, no one has to remain selectively mute.--Chapters: (03:20) Why "How Do I Get My Child to Talk?"

⚖️ What Factors Determine Who Gets Custody of a Child? | Los Angeles Divorce How do California courts decide who gets child custody after a divorce? In Los Angeles custody cases, judges focus on one guiding principle: the child's best interests. Custody is not automatically awarded to one parent. Instead, courts evaluate the unique circumstances of each family when determining legal and physical custody arrangements. This video explains the factors California courts commonly consider and why every custody case is evaluated individually.

When Dallin Zimmerman was four years old, he memorized every Article of Faith. As a teenager, he studied Portuguese and Spanish, and had long been the family's peacemaker — a bright, fun-loving light that people gravitate toward. Today he's serving a full-time mission in South America. And at thirteen, years before any of that, he sat down with his parents and asked a question that would shape everything ahead: "What if I'm gay?"Today we're talking with Dave and Kirty, Dallin's parents, married 22 years, raising four kids, longtime Utah County residents. For more than three years, they kept Dallin's story private, scared of what they might lose, and of what it would cost Dallin if their community found out. Many of their questions remained unresolved. But eventually, the secret became too heavy to carry alone. So together, they helped Dallin share his story with trusted leaders in their ward, in a gathering of Young Men and Young Women leaders who had known him for years, he bore his testimony, and shared that he is gay. One by one, these leaders stood up, embraced him and assured him that he was so loved—and that he belonged. That moment marked the beginning of a new way forward, where isolation gave way to the healing that comes from being known and loved.In this conversation, Dave and Kirty are remarkably candid about the fear they felt at first, the questions that still remain, and the unexpected ways this journey has transformed them—a journey that, as Kirty says, has become "the biggest blessing of their lives."Dave and Kirty would be the first to tell you their story isn't a prescription for any other family's journey. But if you're a parent near the beginning of this path, or a leader wondering how to better love and support the youth in your ward, we hope you'll be inspired by their courage, their humility, and creativity.You can find even more resources around this topic on our website, faithmatters.org.Tickets for Restore 2026 are now available, and we have a new format we think you're going to love.

Taking a weekend course can make you see tongue posture, restricted movement, and mouth breathing everywhere you look. But recognizing a pattern is vastly different from truly understanding it.In this solo episode, Hallie Bulkin addresses "The Myo Gap" - the space between noticing an isolated anatomical finding and developing the clinical depth to understand how it fits into a child's connected, multi-system picture. She unpacks why a restricted frenulum or forward resting tongue is merely a data point rather than an automatic diagnosis or treatment plan, and explains how shallow understanding leads clinicians to jump directly to conclusions, quick referrals, or "cookbook" exercises.Hallie breaks down how to conduct a deeper assessment by analyzing real-time compensations, motor coordination, sensory processing, and overall physical development. You'll learn why true clinical competence often leads to making fewer but far more valuable referrals, how to navigate honest parent conversations without false certainty, and why real clinical judgment requires mentored practice over quick information.Key Topics & TakeawaysThe "Sensitization" Trap: How new clinical learning creates pattern-recognition bias where every finding looks like the primary root cause.Observation vs. Diagnosis: Why a restricted frenulum or forward tongue posture is an initial observation point, not an immediate reason to prescribe exercises or surgical releases.Reading the Connected System: How to evaluate tongue function relative to jaw mechanics, lip seals, nasal breathing, overall muscle tone, sensory processing, and motor coordination.Selective, Value-Driven Referrals: Why advanced clinical discernment leads to fewer automatic referrals for releases and results in clearer, function-based communication with ENTs, dentists, and surgeons.Honest Parent Conversations: The shift from presenting false certainty ("Your child has a tie, so they need a release") to leading transparent, nuanced clinical discussions.Soundbites"Recognizing a pattern can feel a lot like understanding it before the depth is actually there. An observation is not a diagnosis, and it's definitely not a treatment plan.""Structure matters, but function matters more. Context determines what the structure actually means.""Confidence isn't giving parents a quick, simple answer—it's being able to separate what you know from what you suspect."Timestamps 001:04 - The Gap Between Knowing and Understanding Myo 02:50 - Clinical Sensitization & Pattern Recognition 04:23 - Case Study: 3-Year-Old with Low Tone 06:23 - What Deeper Assessment Looks Like 07:35 - Assessing a 2-Year-Old for Feeding Concerns09:04 - Myo Does Not Replace the Rest of the Child 10:20 - Structure vs. Function & Better Referrals 12:03 - Assessing Infants & The Feeding Dyad 13:28 - Communicating Honestly with Parents 15:20 - Myo vs. Feeding Therapy & Multi-Disciplinary Care 16:26 - How to Build True Clinical Competence18:21 - The Myo Method & Closing Thoughts Links & ResourcesThe MYO Method: Elevate your clinical reasoning, bridge assessment gaps, and master orofacial patterns at TheMyoMethod.com.Fast Myo Screening Tool: Stop guessing during your intakes and download the checklist at FastMyoScreening.com.WORTH A LISTEN: CONTINUE YOUR JOURNEYEpisode 132: Feeding With A Twist of Myo with Hallie Bulkin, MA, CCC-SLP, COM.Episode 150: Where To Start And End With TOTS?.STAY CONNECTED

Drop us some Fan Mail. Thanks!Question: Our adopted son is almost 4 months old and perfectly healthy. He eats well, sleeps well, and seems to be hitting his milestones just fine. We know that he was exposed to cocaine during pregnancy, but he was born only three weeks early, which is still full-term. He had a healthy birth weight, he was not suffering from withdrawal in the hospital, and he has checked out as perfectly healthy at all of his pediatrician visits so far. My question is, does the lack of negative effects of cocaine in these early months of his life give us any indication of whether or not he will have learning difficulties or development issues due to the cocaine when he reaches school age? I am curious whether there is any research showing that a lack of symptoms at a young age following prenatal exposure indicates fewer symptoms at an older age. Resources:FASD UnitedPregnancy and Breastfeeding ExposuresRaising a Child with Prenatal Substance ExposurePrenatal Substance Exposure Training for Foster, Adoptive, and Kinship ParentsSupport the showPlease leave us a rating or review.  This podcast is produced by www.CreatingaFamily.org.

For a whole host of reasons, you could make a general statement that it is far better for a parent to want a child than it is for a parent to feel saddled with a child that they do not want. But it is a mistake to think that if a parent desperately wants a child, they are going to be a good parent to the child they have. In fact, because of a little-known shadow, it can be a disaster when a parent really wants a child.

This is the first episode of the Choosing Different mini-series of conversations between Hali and her two adult daughters, who were both teenagers when their family was in the thick of betrayal and dysfunction. Instead of letting that experience pull them apart, they've been doing the slow, unglamorous work of healing, learning each other again, and trying to break some of the generational patterns they grew up with. They are upfront that they don't have it all figured out. This isn't a highlight reel - it's a real, sometimes messy conversation, shared in case it helps open a door in your own family. In this episode, they talk about what it means to relate to each other as two adults instead of parent and child, how to choose curiosity over criticism, navigating marriage and relationships as an adult child, supporting each other's dreams, showing up emotionally, and, at the heart of it, what healthy repair after a rupture actually looks like. If this conversation resonated with you, we'd love for you to join us in person.

Do you use your imagination enough? Most parents think of imagination as something for playtime — a "nice to have" that fades once kids get older and life gets "serious." But Dr. Cassandra Vieten, director of science programs at the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination at UC San Diego, joins Dr. Aliza Pressman to make the case that imagination is a trainable skill with real developmental and psychological weight. They unpack the connection between imagination and anxiety, why kids naturally live closer to the "field of possibility" than adults do, and how something as simple as a car-ride question can open up conversations that "how was your day?" never will. What You'll Learn: The real, physiological link between imagination and anxiety How to use your child's favorite fandom as a doorway into connection Strategies to turn discipline moments into imagination-building thought experiments How to use screens and social media for connection instead of "slot machine" scrolling

When Seth Rogen bragged on a podcast, "Thank God we don't have children," the audience didn't just laugh. They cheered. Seth isn't an outlier. He's a data point. CDC numbers show nearly half of American women around age 30 are childless. That's not an accident. It was built this way. Culture pathologized family and monetized isolation because a single, lonely woman who thinks kids will ruin her life is the most profitable customer on earth. In this episode, I'm calling out the multi-billion-dollar industries making a fortune off women who trade a real legacy for cheap "autonomy." A civilization that looks at a child and says, "Thank God you're not mine," has lost its will to live. Having kids and taking on responsibility isn't a burden. It's the ultimate act of rebellion.   Follow me - I'm chronically online Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/kristanmercerhawkins/ X - https://x.com/KristanHawkins Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HawkinsKristan/ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@kristanmercerhawkins

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show tackled some of the biggest stories making headlines, from a landmark Georgia court case to major music news. The crew discussed the sentencing of Georgia father Colin Gray, who received 15 years in prison after being convicted for providing the firearm used by his son in the 2024 Apalachee High School mass shooting, a case that legal experts say could further shape how parents are held accountable when children gain access to deadly weapons. The show also examined concerns surrounding music legend Gladys Knight after her son publicly said he does not want her touring anymore, citing worries about her health and well-being, while Knight has previously maintained that she is healthy and happy and looks forward to continuing to perform. On the entertainment side, rap icon Too Short joined the RSMS crew to talk about his new album Sir Too $hort Vol. 2: Drink & Smoke, produced entirely by longtime collaborator Lil Jon and released as he celebrates more than four decades in hip-hop. He reflected on longevity, working with legends, and why age should never limit creativity in rap. The crew also highlighted former President Barack Obama’s newly released 2026 summer playlist, which features an eclectic mix of artists including Drake, Doechii, SZA, Vince Staples, A Tribe Called Quest, Earth, Wind & Fire, and Marvin Gaye. Other hot topics included Jamie Foxx reportedly preparing to welcome another child, debate surrounding homelessness after comments made by Slim Thug, and celebrity relationship updates involving Papoose and Claressa Shields.

This week we review a recent book entitled Reimagining a Child's Heart: The Lone Pines of Congenital Cardiology which was recently published by Springer and which was authored by Dr. Thomas J. Kulik and Dr. Macdonald Dick. Drs. Kulik and Dick recount the innumerable steps in discovery that led to what the authors view as one of the pinnacles of achievement in our field, namely the palliation of children with HLHS and single ventricle disease. Dr. Kulik tragically passed suddenly in 2021 but his friend and colleague Dr. Dick completed the book that Dr. Kulik had spent over a decade toiling over. This week we sit down with Dr. Dick and also, briefly, Dr. Roberta Williams and Dr. Kulik's wife Ms. Linda Kulik to discuss the book, Dr. Kulik's legacy, mentorship and more. Dr. Dick also shares with us what he believes are the keys to a successful retirement. This is a rare opportunity to listen to some of the truest pioneers of our field, 'Lone Pines" themselves share their insights and warm stories. For those interested, this is one of many sites to obtain the book:https://www.amazon.com/dp/3031886070?lv=shuf&channelId=500&plpRedirect=mhFallbackAlso mentioned in this episode are 2 prior episodes including our conversation with Dr. Michael Freed and our conversation with Ms. Patricia Meisol and links are below:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pediheart-podcast-203-a-conversation-with-dr-michael-freed/id1341472214?i=1000556610155https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pediheart-podcast-320-the-extraordinary-life/id1341472214?i=1000677938143

It's Friday, July 31st, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Syrians in America have to leave the country The expiration of Temporary Protected Status for Syrians in America this week has renewed attention on the fragile security environment facing civilians in Syria, particularly Christians who remain vulnerable 18 months after the fall of Bashar al-Assad's dictatorship in this 87% Muslim country, reports International Christian Concern. Temporary Protected Status is a humanitarian immigration designation that allows nationals of countries experiencing armed conflict to remain and work legally in the United States for a limited period. The designation does not provide a pathway to permanent residency but shields recipients from deportation while conditions in their home country are deemed unsafe for return. In December 2024, rebel forces, led by Ahmed al-Sharaa, forced al-Assad from power.  Al-Sharaa's group had previously been associated with Muslim jihadist movements, including al-Qaeda. Before the Syrian civil war, Christians represented a significant minority of Syria's population concentrated in Damascus — where the Apostle Paul was converted on the street. While Christians have not experienced the same level of targeted mass violence as other groups, there has been harassment and attacks on Christian communities. President Trump floats temporarily pulling Blache nomination to be AG President Donald Trump said on July 30 that he was willing to temporarily withdraw his nomination of Todd Blanche to be Attorney General until next year, if two Republican senators continued to withhold their support, reports The Epoch Times. Blanche's nomination has been held up in the Senate Judiciary Committee after Republican Senators John Cornyn of Texas and Thom Tillis of North Carolina said they would not back bringing it to the floor for a full vote. Those two votes are necessary for the nomination to advance. Earlier this year, both Cornyn and Tillis lost their bid for re-election after President Trump endorsed their opponents during the primaries. The president now intends to wait them out. In the meantime, Blanche will remain the acting head of the Department of Justice. You can express your objection to the senators for dragging their feet by calling Senator John Cornyn at 202-224-2934 and Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina at 202-224-6342.

Dr. Fauci invoked Fifth Amendment 90 times in GOP-led committee In a hearing of the Senate's Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on July 29th, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, announced in his opening statement that he would invoke the Fifth Amendment and not answer any questions about his culpability in a cover-up about the source of the COVID-19 virus or what happened subsequently. Listen. FAUCI: “Members of the committee, I served at the NIH for over 54 years, 38 of those as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Over that period, I proved that I believe in and respect the value of legitimate congressional oversight. In fact, I testified before and/or briefed Senate and House committees well over 200 times over those 38 years. During and after the COVID pandemic, I have appeared multiple times for hearings in the Senate and the House, usually under oath, and sat for several days-long, transcribed, sworn interviews answering questions about the very issues that are now the subject of this hearing. “However, given Senator [Rand] Paul's obvious obsession with calling for my prosecution, his repeated slanderous comments about me, and recently his publicly releasing my unredacted personal diary aimed at embarrassing and intimidating me, the only conclusion I can reach is that the sole reason he is calling me before this committee is to get me to say something, anything, that could vindicate his repeated public pledges that I end up, in his words, ‘behind bars'. “Any reasonable person who has followed his unhinged obsession with me would readily come to the same conclusion. Therefore, although it pains me to do so because of the respect I have for the legislative branch of government and my decades-long record of cooperating with Congress, under the advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right, under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution, to refrain from answering your questions.” Over the course of his time in front of the Senate Committee, Dr. Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment a whopping 111 times, reports Fox News. Dr. Fauci stonewalled Senator Rand Paul numerous times Dr. Anthony Fauci repeatedly stonewalled Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, the Chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. The senator started with asking about former President Joe Biden's bizarre “full and unconditional” pardon of Dr. Fauci. PAUL:  “As a member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, or the White House COVID-19 Response Team, or as Chief Medical Advisor to the President, have you refused this pardon? Or do you have any reason to believe this full and unconditional pardon, this grant of immunity, would somehow require you to plead the Fifth Amendment?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer, based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution.” PAUL: “Based on the facts presented, I'm going to direct you to answer the questions. The committee has issued a valid subpoena. They have requested your presence here. The questions are very pertinent to your decision making as head of [the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases], as well as a chief advisor to the president, do you still refuse to answer the questions?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer, based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution.” PAUL:  “Were you ever made aware of gain-of-function research on monkeypox being conducted at the National Bio Defense Analysis and Countermeasures Center, and back at Fort Detrick, [the center of the U.S. biological weapons program from 1943 to 1969]?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer, based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution.” PAUL:  “Dr. Fauci, did the CIA ever transfer funds to [the National Institutes of Health] under interagency agreement?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer, based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution.” And Senator Rand Paul took this parting shot. PAUL: “The chairman has denied your assertion of privilege and directed you to answer, but you nonetheless refuse and stand on privilege despite the existence of the pardon. The committee will have to consider after this hearing what appropriate action should be taken against you for the failure to testify after being directed to do so. “It's against the law to obstruct an investigation of Congress. There will be repercussions to your refusal to testify today.” Watchdog group: Medical groups should condemn transgender surgeries on minors The medical watchdog group, Do No Harm, is calling on 10 major medical associations to explicitly condemn transgender genital surgeries on minors, reports The Daily Signal. On July 29th, Do No Harm sent open letters to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American Medical Association among others. In the letter, the group wrote, “Do No Harm, and its 54,000 members, are calling on your society to publicly reject genital surgery on minors for the purpose of producing [so-called] ‘gender transitions.' While this process is uncommon, we believe that it should never occur.” In Matthew 19:4, Jesus asked, “Have you not read that [God], who created them from the beginning, made them male and female?” Marijuana should not be reclassified as a less dangerous drug Marijuana could be reclassified as a less dangerous substance under federal law. Kevin Sabet, CEO of Smart Approaches to Marijuana and the former drug policy advisor for the Clinton, George W. Bush and Obama presidential administrations as well as President Trump's former U.S. Attorney General William Barr, thinks that would be a terrible idea. He said that reclassifying marijuana as a drug with accepted medical use and a lower risk of abuse than drugs subject to greater controls would be reckless. Sabet added, “The evidence presented at the hearing confirmed what decades of data have shown: Raw marijuana has no scientifically established medical value and carries a high risk of abuse. Today's marijuana is more dangerous than ever before. [Reclassifying] marijuana would create the false impression that it is safe, would reduce penalties for peddling the drug illegally and would give those who purvey it legally a huge tax windfall. That would be a disaster.”  The Department of Justice held a hearing last month to consider it at President Donald Trump's request. Despite the fact that President Trump is a teetotaler who eschews alcohol and drugs, he told his administration last December to push forward on easing marijuana restrictions, after an aggressive lobbying push by advocates including a cannabis CEO, a Florida sheriff, and a Mar-a-Lago member, the Wall Street Journal previously reported. Jim Daly, President of Focus on the Family, previously wrote, “Use of cannabis increases a person's chance of developing a bipolar disorder or schizophrenia by an average of 47%. It's also shown to significantly increase hallucinations and paranoia. “In fact, it's been determined that regular use of medical marijuana leads to a higher chance of heart attack, stroke and coronary artery disease. … If the established goal is to make America healthy and great again, this objective will not be reached by increasing access to poisonous pot.” In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, the Apostle Paul asked, “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, Who is in you, Whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your bodies.” Montana listeners like our brevity and updates on the persecuted Here at The Worldview in 5 Minutes, Winston and Heather Royal in Helena, Montana, wrote, “Adam, we appreciate the newscast because it's short, to the point, and from a Christian perspective. We appreciate hearing about our Christian brothers and sisters around the world. And we often listen to it at breakfast time. Thank you for your work!” Texas listener values boldness and truthfulness of The Worldview And Byron Barlowe in Plano, Texas wrote, “Adam, your newscast is something I've evangelized about for four reasons. I find the integration of a Biblical worldview into reporting the news to be effective and refreshing. Brevity matters more than ever. I also relate to the brevity of your newscast since Probe Ministries, a group I write for, produces a 3-minute daily feature. The candor among you and the two other writers of The Worldview is bold, truthful, and necessary. For example, I appreciate your reference to homosexual faux marriage instead of so-called ‘gay marriage.' Spade-calling is truth-telling and, when done in a gracious spirit led by the Spirit of God, can have good effect. You have a golden radio voice that emanates masculinity without undue forcefulness. Both women and men need that in the era of so-called ‘toxic masculinity' and the feminized Church which follows a confused culture. I just like it, too.” Byron, thanks for your encouragement as we use the instruments of our laptops and voice to communicate. 23 Worldview listeners gave $13,150.04 And finally, by Thursday night at 9:00pm Central, 23 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the 6-member team behind The Worldview for another year. Our thanks to Jerry in Angie, Louisiana and Thomas in Spartanburg, South Carolina – both of whom gave $25 as well as David in Wilmington, Ohio and Lori in Rockford, Illinois – both of whom gave $50. We appreciate Tony and Jennie in Palmdale, California who gave $80.04, Samuel in Greensboro, North Carolina who gave $90, and Jeanne in Thomasville, North Carolina and Ron in Orange Park, Florida – both of whom gave $100. We're grateful to God for Jody in Westerlo, New York and Kevin and Shelly in Columbus, Nebraska – both of whom gave $200, Glenn and Linda in Palmdale, California who gave $240, Marlowe in Freetown, Prince Edward Isalnd, Canada who gave $250, Kelly in Rio Rancho, New Mexico who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300, and Vanessa in Templeton, California and Nicki in Carthage, Missouri – both of whom pledged $35/month for 12 months for a gift of $420. We were touched by the generosity of Serge in Simpsonville, South Carolina who gave $500, Charles and Pamela in Sierra Madre, California  who gave $500, Sean in Burlington, Wisconsin who gave $500, and Francesca in Rockaway Township, New Jersey who also gave $500. All four of them were matched by our friend in Naples, Florida who gave another $2,000. And we were blown away by Frederick in Gainesville, Florida who pledged $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600, Jeff in Sevierville, Tennessee who gave $1,000, and Steve and Carla in Katy, Texas who gave $5,000. Wow! Those 23 gifts add up to $13,150.04. That's the largest total amount in a single day throughout this July 2026 fundraiser. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (drum roll sound effect) $94,270 (sound effect of people cheering) We need to raise $29,230 by midnight tonight, July 31st! That means in order to hit our final goal of $123,500 by midnight tonight, Friday, July 31st, God needs to prompt folks to give an astounding $29,230 in order for the 6-member Worldview newscast team to be fully funded for another year. So, as I've said over the last several days, if you have been waiting until the last minute, this … is … it!  We could really use your help.  The finish line is upon us. Perhaps in our national audience, there are three others, just like Steve and Carla in Katy, Texas, who feel led by God to give a one-time gift of $5,000. If that $15,000 comes in, we would need just 15 people to either give a one-time gift of $1,000 or make a monthly pledge of $83.33 for 12 months which adds up to $1,000. If all of that is way out of your budget, just give what you can. $10. $20. $30. Every dollar gets us closer. Now, if you can't give a dime, then pray. Pray that God would stir the hearts of those who can give! Just go to TheWorldview.com, click on Give, select the dollar amount, and make sure to click on the “recurring” button if that's your wish.  And remember this, if you want to continue your monthly pledge to The Worldview that you started prior to July 1, 2026, please let me know so we can count your generous ongoing gift toward our total.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comThis is a throwback episode to honor the amazing Carrie Olaje who has been super busy and can't wait to start podcasting again! I wanted to shine a light on her testimony (and first ever episode we did together) as it generated tens of thousands of views on my last YouTube channel before it was terminated and then was reuploaded to this channel. She is absolutely phenomenal. Let's revisit Carrie's second podcast and public disclosure...---------------------This week I know you are all going to be just as excited as I am to have back on the show: ritual abuse, human trafficking and mind control survivor, mother, entrepreneur, tattoo cover-up extraordinaire, artist, gallery and tattoo shop owner, upcoming podcast host of her own YouTube channel, and walking miracle: Carrie Olaje ( @carrieolaje )Carrie was born into a multi-generational incest-based family and from a young age was sold into government and military-sanctioned mind control programs with the goal of making her a child assassin, sex slave, and ritual butcher - just to name of few of her jobs. Her abuse was perpetuated initially by her father who then passed her on to other owners and handlers who furthered her programming, trafficking and ritual abuse. If you missed her incredible testimony - it is a MUST WATCH. Her story had a tremendous impact on me and I was so thrilled to see so many of YOU commenting in length how her story impacted you personally.We prefaced Carrie's last interview with a ‘trigger warning' because one of the things she did - which we haven't done on this show much - was go into graphic detail about specific rituals she was used in along with artwork she created for visuals to further explain the rituals. This was an extremely impactful way to explain something most of us listening cannot even begin to imagine or comprehend. We received so many comments and on how many people were able to understand on a deeper level. I'm going to preface this episode as well with a ‘TRIGGER WARNING' as well because this time around, Carrie will be doing an even deeper dive into programming, rituals, core splitting, dissociation and so much more. Our hope is that this information furthers your deeper understanding on these topics whether you are a survivor or an advocate. It means so much to me to see your support of the podcast guests and I just want to say a quick ‘thank you' to everyone listening for uplifting, supporting and validating each guest who has the courage to get on this podcast to share their testimony. It just goes to show, everyone has a story.Now on her healing journey, Carrie said it best when she stated the following: Quote: “I feel like they've honed a sharp weapon… and now it's pointed at them”. A testament not only to how far she's come, but also to how powerful it is for a trauma survivor to take back their power and realize that the God-given gifts they were given that abusers tried to exploit can be taken back and used in a very powerful way to change the world. Another quote of Carrie's: “If I saw my abuser on the street - it's HIM that would be scared of me” Wow… If you missed her incredible testimony, I'm going to link it below - please go watch it was so powerful!I wanted to give a reminder that if you are a survivor or whistleblower who wants to share your story on the podcast or wants to share any information privately with me, you can now email me at IMAGINEABETTERWORLD2020@GMAIL.COM! Please send me a briefing of who you are and how I can support you whether it's through podcasting or sharing information. All of my social media and donation links are also in the shownotes. Your support across multiple platforms and financially make a huge difference in what I'm able to accomplish with reaching more people and having the means financially grow this podcast.

Preschool classrooms are supposed to be noisy, cheerful places filled with children, laughter, and constant activity. For one teacher, however, there was one classroom that always seemed a little different.At first it was nothing more than an uneasy feeling whenever she found herself alone. Then came a handful of experiences that became harder to dismiss—especially after other teachers quietly admitted they had noticed strange things as well.The moment she has never forgotten, though, came from one of her students.A simple comment during naptime changed the way she looked at that classroom forever, leaving her with a question she still can't answer all these years later...Who was the little boy no one else was supposed to see?#RealGhostStory #HauntedSchool #HauntedClassroom #GhostChild #Paranormal #TeacherStory #GhostEncounter #TrueGhostStory #Unexplained #PreschoolLove real ghost stories?
