Sayokla Kindness is an internationally recognized, award-winning multi-disciplinary bead and wampum artist from the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin, Turtle Clan, whose work has been exhibited and celebrated for its extraordinary beauty, technical mastery, and cultural depth. Rooted in Haudenosaunee teachings, her practice bridges ancestral knowledge and contemporary Indigenous art in ways that are unmistakably her own.In this conversation, Sayokla shares the winding path that brought her home. We talk about her journey as an artist, the responsibilities of carrying cultural knowledge, and the profound teachings embedded within her work. One powerful story (among so many) after recently harvesting quahog shells with a mentor, then attempting to make dozens of wampum beads, only fourteen were successful. Rather than seeing those failed attempts as setbacks, she speaks with deep gratitude for the fourteen that survived.Today, she is a Haudenosaunee woman who can recite the Thanksgiving Address, while holding wampum beads that she strung herself. Sayokla's work demonstrates that artistic excellence and ancestral knowledge are entangled pursuits. Whether exhibiting internationally or sitting with the teachings of wampum, she shows us what it looks like to carry Haudenosaunee knowledge forward with generosity, integrity, and joy.Host/Producer: KahstoserakwatheProduction Manger: Tamara LouksEditor: Eve KrogmanAudio Engineer: Mariana Hutten Czapski Hosted on Acast.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme, "Under Pressure." Today we explored how pressure exposes what we really believe, and focused on Mark 4:35–41. Dr. Deb Gorton joined us to talk about how pressure can reveal the thoughts, beliefs, and burdens we need to sift through, explaining how biblical self-stewardship, wise community, and time with God help keep pressure from becoming burnout. Dr. Gorton is the Founder and CEO of Siv Counseling and Consultation. She also serves as Director of Community Care at Soul City Church in Chicago. Then we had Dr. Hormoz Shariat join us to share the urgent needs of believers in Iran, where Christians are facing fear, persecution, and practical hardship while continuing to stand strong for Christ. Dr. Shariat is the Founder and President of Iran Alive Ministries. Daniel Henderson also joined us to talk about spiritual warfare, explaining how opposition often arises when believers are serious about the gospel and why pastors and leaders must stay focused on prayer, the Word, and reliance on God rather than self-reliance. Daniel is the Founder and President of Strategic Renewal International, which coaches pastors. He is also the Global Director of The 6:4 Fellowship.

Today, we explore a series that captures San Francisco at the height of the AIDS epidemic. It's a conversation with the host of “When We All Get To Heaven.” Then, we visit the Bay Area's first women's sports bar- Rikki's. Plus, a poem about found family. 

Contrary to historical processes, clinical trials do not have to be limited to large academic centers or homogeneous populations. On this episode, host Alex Maiersperger speaks with Dr. Mimi Fenton, CEO of Cedar Health Research, a community based clinical research organization using AI to bring trials into trusted local care settings.Drawing on her experience across academia, pharma, CROs and retail health, Dr. Fenton explains why access, education and patient support remain major barriers to participation. She discusses how Cedar embeds research into trusted community settings. The conversation also explores how AI and large language models help connect the right patients to the right trials while preserving the human relationships that drive trust and retention.

A horse does not show up with preconceptions about disability, status, or what you can do. It meets you as you are, responds to your body and energy, and somehow makes space for confidence to grow. That simple idea becomes powerful when you hear how Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) turns it into real support for thousands of people across the UK. We sit down with Michael Bishop, CEO of RDA UK, to explain what RDA actually is: a UK-wide disability charity supporting a movement of around 450 local groups, powered by roughly 14,000 volunteers and nearly 3,000 horses each year. Michael breaks down the range of equine-assisted work, from riding and carriage driving to education-linked, ground-based sessions, and he clarifies the difference between hippotherapy (physiotherapy-led intervention) and the broader therapeutic impact people experience through belonging, nature, and routine. We also get practical about access and scale. Half of RDA beneficiaries live in urban areas, and many people discover local centres through schools, families, and medical professionals. But demand is outpacing supply: 71% of groups cannot meet current need. That leads to the big questions around volunteering, funding, rising costs, and how social prescribing could recognise not just participation, but the mental health benefits of volunteering itself. You will also hear about “Tea with a Pony,” a programme supporting people living with progressive conditions like dementia through sensory connection and calm community time. If you care about disability inclusion, mental health support, equine therapy, or community-led care that actually works, this conversation gives you a grounded view of what it takes and what is at stake.

There was a time when your neighbor knew your name, your grandmother's friend's son could check you, and the whole block had some say in how you turned out. Now? People wave and go inside. So what happened?In this episode of Talking Brown Sugar, Rajah and Angela trace the shift from community-deep living to hyperlocalized, mind-your-business culture and ask whether we gained peace or lost something we can't get back.Angela remembers growing up in New York where the neighbors watched you, and North Carolina where the whole street was in your business and told on you. Rajah connects the dots between 9/11, the Patriot Act, social media, and why people started retreating into digital bubbles and what that's cost us in real-world community.They talk about third spaces disappearing (malls, bookstores, libraries), the way social media has wired us to see more negative than positive, and what healthy community actually looks like now neighborhood apps, town halls, holding the HOA accountable.

AgingIN CEO Susan Ryan sits down with Paul Sharman, founder and president of PACE Canada, to explore how integrated, community-based care can transform aging services. Paul shares his journey from engineering and corporate leadership to public service and eldercare innovation after his mother's experience with dementia reshaped his perspective. Inspired by a visit to a Detroit PACE site, Paul launched PACE Canada in Ontario to bring collaborative, relationship-based care to older adults living in community housing. In addition to discussing the challenges of adapting the model to Canada, he examines the importance of trust and cross-sector collaboration. Paul also shares his bold vision for the future: connecting up to one million Canadians to integrated care systems powered by technology, predictive analytics, and community partnerships—all designed to help older adults age with dignity, connection, and support.

In this episode of Sew & So, we're stepping into a powerful intersection of storytelling and sewing with filmmaker and artist Valerie Soe. Valerie is a fourth-generation Chinese American, born and raised in San Francisco, and like so many, her sewing journey started with a single machine—a 1970s Kenmore she still uses today. What began as a practical skill in high school, and later as a way to sew for her family, became something she would return to in a moment when it mattered most. As an award-winning filmmaker and professor of Asian American Studies, Valerie has built her career around telling stories that reflect identity, memory, and community—stories she didn't often see growing up. And in early 2020, when the world slowed down and uncertainty set in, she found herself both living and documenting one of those stories in real time. Through a simple call to action, the Auntie Sewing Squad came together—hundreds of volunteers sewing masks for people who needed them, at a time when supplies were scarce and fear was high. Valerie was part of that effort, sewing alongside others while also capturing the experience as a filmmaker. Her newest documentary, The Auntie Sewing Squad Resistance Playbook, revisits that moment—what it felt like, what was created, and what it meant to come together in a time of crisis. Many of you may remember our earlier conversation with Kristina Wong. (Episode 75) Today, we return to that story through Valerie's lens, with a deeper look at the impact of that movement. This is a conversation about sewing as something more—more than a skill, more than a craft—but a way to connect, to respond, and to care for others when it matters most. (3:25) Valerie talks about her first sewing machine – a 1970's Kenmore – and the beginning of her sewing adventures (4:53) What first drew Valerie to film and telling stories? (5:34) How did she become involved with The Auntie Sewing Squad? (7:00) How did she decide that the first film needed to be made? (8:12) And the second film…why this one? (9:05) Valerie talks about Kristina Wong (11:14) Valerie was both film producer and Sewing Squad participant. How did this affect the film? (12:45) This film was made during the time when Asian Americans were in danger. What was this like for her? (14:00) What were the most unexpected and powerful moments for her in the film? (15:25) How did the Auntie Sewing Squad serve the Navajo Nation and what affect did this have? (16:48) Valerie talks about the tiny details of the film where sewing was a practical tool rooted in community care (18:05) What does Valerie hope people will take away from the film? (20:30) What's next for her and what's her dream? (21:25) She takes us behind the scenes and explains the mechanics of making an independent film. (23:17) Want to see the film?

Host Scott Hennen counts down to America's 250th anniversary with a deep dive into North Dakota's crowning contribution: the upcoming Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library. Scott challenges the "ho-hum" attitude toward the project, explaining why this interactive museum in Medora is set to become a global destination and a powerful symbol of American resilience. The episode moves from historical legacies to modern-day battlegrounds as Scott welcomes a heavy-hitting lineup of guests. Minnesota Senate candidate and battle-tested warrior Adam Swarzi joins the show to discuss the strategic importance of the Iranian blockade and the "trillions in fraud" still lurking beneath the surface of government spending. VA Secretary Doug Collins provides an exclusive "report card" on veterans' care, detailing how the administration has slashed the claims backlog from 260,000 to 80,000 in record time. Finally, the show tackles the alarming rise of global Christian persecution and the economic shift of "de-dollarization" with experts Martin Moyer and David Fisher.

In this honest and deeply human conversation, speaker, author, prevention advocate, and Executive Director of RISE TOGETHER, Nadine Machkovech, joins Lisa Wall of Mission Programs & Community Care at SHE RECOVERS. Together, they explore what becomes possible when we loosen our grip on perfection and the pressure to hold it all together as recovery advocates, leaders, mothers, partners, and friends. They reflect on recovering out loud with honesty and courageous vulnerability as a pathway to healing, connection, and empowerment.Nadine shares her journey of entering recovery in her early twenties, navigating the expectations of being a visible voice in the recovery space, and the profound loss of her teenage son to overdose. She speaks to the turning points that invited her to stop hiding her pain and grief, and to the role that connection and storytelling have played in her healing, especially in reaching and supporting the next generation.Together, Nadine and Lisa delve into what it means to redefine recovery, to listen to intuition as a guide, and to permit ourselves to show up just as we are. They also offer a clear reminder that we do not have to wait to hit rock bottom to pursue recovery. Woven throughout the conversation are reflections from Nadine's book, Enough Already: A Journey from Hiding to Healing, along with an invitation to consider authenticity, community, and self-compassion as essential forms of recovery medicine. Nadine reminds us that no one should have to navigate their struggles alone, and that sharing our stories can create a ripple effect of meaningful change.About Nadine MachkovechNadine Machkovech is a TEDx speaker, author of Enough Already, and Executive Director of RISE TOGETHER.

“Every person deserves kindness, dignity, and respect, regardless of what their medical situation is,” says Madison Donnelly, PA-C, who joins host Dr. Parsa Mohri on the latest installment of our NextGen Journeys series. As you'll hear in this thoughtful conversation, Madison is bringing that commitment to patient advocacy and equitable care to her patients at Community Care Physicians in Albany, New York. A graduate of Hofstra University's PA program, Madison describes how the profession's flexibility and team-based approach enables clinicians to expand access to care, particularly in high-demand specialties like women's health and primary care. Drawing on her work in obstetrics and gynecology, she highlights persistent gaps in women's health, including America's troubling maternal mortality rates and the long delays many patients face in receiving diagnoses for endometriosis and other conditions. “There's a difference between telling someone something and being heard,” she notes, emphasizing that women's symptoms are still too often dismissed in clinical settings. The episode also explores overlooked populations -- including NICU families and patients with eating disorders -- where stigma, mental health challenges, and fragmented follow-up care can leave people vulnerable long after the initial medical crisis. Don't miss this Raise the Line dialogue about the evolving role of physician associates and how early-career clinicians can help build a more humane and responsive system.
