In Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden From Us, best selling writer Anna Malaika Tubbs reveals the secret history of American patriarchal values. Tubbs argues this patriarchy is the central narrative thread of American history. She emphasizes that patriarchy affects everyone differently according to their race, class, and gender - thereby creating a "gendered hierarchy" that excludes many from traditional gender roles. Tubbs maintains that this patriarchy persists. Indeed, she presents the Trump administration's Project 2025 as a reactionary attempt to return to this central narrative of American history. Five Key Takeaways * American patriarchy was intentionally built into the nation's founding documents, with women deliberately excluded from the Constitution. This systemic design continues to influence modern American society and politics.* Patriarchy affects different groups in varying ways—white women experience oppression differently than women of color, who historically weren't even afforded the "protections" of traditional gender roles. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for building effective coalitions.* Agency is central to resistance against patriarchal systems. Throughout history, marginalized groups have consistently demonstrated alternative ways of living despite systemic constraints.* Current political movements like Project 2025 represent a conscious return to traditional patriarchal values, particularly in their emphasis on women's reproductive roles.* According to Tubbs, addressing patriarchy requires multi-level approaches: personal reflection, reimagining relationships, mindful parenting, and policy change. Understanding how patriarchy operates helps explain voting patterns and can inform strategies for social change.Anna Malaika Tubbs is a New York Times bestselling author and multidisciplinary expert on current and historical understandings of race, gender, and equity. With a Ph.D. in Sociology and a Masters in Multidisciplinary Gender Studies from the University of Cambridge in addition to a Bachelors in Medical Anthropology from Stanford University, Anna translates her academic knowledge into stories that are clear and engaging. Her articles have been published by TIME Magazine, New York Magazine, CNN, Motherly, the Huffington Post, For Harriet, The Guardian, Darling Magazine, and Blavity. Anna's storytelling also takes form in her talks, including her TED Talk that has been viewed 2 million times, as well as the scripted and unscripted screen projects she has in development.

In this week's episode we dive deeply into what rest actually looks like when you have an undefined sacral, and the regular life commitments we all have to keep. My guest Jenna Britton, 6/2 Splenic Projector, and I discuss how you can begin to, and continue to incorporate rest into your life in small but supportive ways as non-sacral. We talk deeply about the awareness of the tiredness in your physical body and the permission to be more tired than those around you. We also talk about feeling lazy, the shame around need more rest and creating new ways of looking at what rest means. We share how you can make the same task more nourishing or restorative by making small changes that support your energy, your emotions and your body that day. Jenna and I also share the impact you can make on your community when you acknowledge and honour your need for rest. We compare our experiences of having a defined (Jenna) and an open (Rachael) heart center and how this plays into our ability to restfully relax. Jenna Britton is a clarity coach and writer. She uses Human Design to help people identify who and how they're designed to be, illuminating the authentic and aligned ways they can show up in work, relationships, their purpose, and more. Jenna has also been a freelance writer since 2012, writing feature articles and sharing personal stories that highlight her own (ongoing) journey to clarity, authenticity, and personal fulfilment. Her writing has been published in Salon, Thought Catalog, Darling Magazine, The Everygirl, and several other publications. And in 2016, she gave a TEDx Talk on how story has the power to change your life.

Hi friends! I'm so excited to be partnering with Dr. Stephen Cabral on some upcoming podcast episodes, including this one. I'm currently enrolled in his Integrative Health Practitioner course (Levels 1 and 2) and have learned SO much already. If you're considering expanding your knowledge in health and wellness or are considering making a career change, check it out here.   I've got a new podcast episode up today and am sharing an interview with Bebekah Buege, who is a women's confidence coach. A heads up about this episode: we talk a lot about body image and past events in this post, so I wanted to include this note here if you think this topic would be triggering for you in any way. It's meant to be empowering, but I can absolutely see how this can be a delicate topic, particularly for my friends who have experience with body dysmorphia and/or eating disorders.  098: Boosting inner worth and body confidence with Rebekah Buege  Here's a little bit about what we talk about:  What causes body image issues in high performing women How to feel good in your skin wearing anything (or nothing at all) How to disarm body image triggers from childhood How to give compliments without hurting someone's body image How body image is a philosophical issue, not a psychological issue and so.much.more. Here's a bit of background on Rebekah: Rebekah Buege challenges cultural expectations of women through a philosophical lens of what we individually (and culturally) believe makes a woman good. She teaches women tangible ways to value their body based on what it does and develop a truly loving relationship between body and self. Because believe it or not, you are not your body. This sparked her drive to create Confidently She, a podcast and educational platform centered on developing, experimenting, and enjoying femininity in all its forms. Her work, featured in Darling Magazine and Marigold, touches upon the importance of patience when it comes to our relationships with our bodies, the concept of social currency, and a deep dive into creating a rock-solid sense of self-worth. Rebekah's book, Social Currency, is set to publish in summer 2022 with over 500 pre-order copies already sold. Social Currency examines how a culture obsessed with perfection uses social currencies such as beauty, power, and status as the ultimate measure of a woman's worth, before showing readers there is another way. You can find Rebekah on Instagram and check out her website here. Resources from this episode: Check out the Integrative Health Practitioner program from Dr. Stephen Cabral here.

Welcome to Season Six of the Mother’s Quest Podcast and this special Mother’s Day episode, which shines a light on the untold stories and far-reaching impact of mothers and in particular Black mothers. For this episode, I had the honor of talking with Anna Malaika Tubbs, the brilliant biographer of the groundbreaking book The Three Mothers: How the Mothers of Martin Luther King, Jr, Malcolm X, and James Baldwin Shaped a Nation.In addition to being a mother to a 1 year old boy with another child on the way, Anna is an author, advocate, educator, scholar and Ph.D. candidate in Sociology at the University of Cambridge. Growing up abroad and influenced by her exposure to all kinds of cultures and beliefs, and by her own mother’s work advocating internationally for women’s and children’s rights, Anna uses an intersectional lens to advocate for women of color and to educate others. During her time as an undergraduate student at Stanford University, Anna took from what she’d seen in her parents’ work and began honing her own identity as an activist. As the First Partner of Stockton, CA, she co-authored the first-ever “Report on the Status of Women in Stockton” to guide future policy decisions with the experiences of diverse women in mind. She’s published articles featured in the Huffington Post, For Harriet, Darling Magazine and Blavity, on issues ranging from mass incarceration to the forced sterilization of Black women, as well as the importance of feminism, intersectionality, and inclusivity. Throughout all her work and writing, she draws on her personal experience and extensive research to examine and make relevant gender and race issues in the US, especially the pervasive erasure of Black women. In this incredible debut book, The Three Mothers, Anna celebrates Black motherhood by telling the story of the three women who raised and shaped some of America’s most pivotal civil rights heroes: Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and James Baldwin. Alberta King, Louise Little and Berdis Baldwin were all born at the beginning of the 20th century, all were forced to contend with the prejudices of Jim Crow as Black women, all forged their own unique paths, using their beliefs and talents to shape not only their children but those around them, and all three had to bury their children, two of them after losing their sons to gun violence. In these mothers and their stories, amidst the pain and grief, there also existed vibrancy, love and conviction. One of my biggest takeaways from my conversation with Anna is the importance of acknowledging the continued injustices that Black women endure today and that although Black women continue to experience tremendous grief, they also experience joy and they are not “a conquered victim," but are living through life as whole human beings. My Mother’s Day wish is that you will find time and space to slow down and truly listen to Anna’s insights about the mothers whose stories she so beautifully tells, that you will get and read her book The Three Mothers, and that you’ll join me in saying “yes” to Anna’s challenge. She asks that all of us advance our understanding of different forms of motherhood. Picking up books she says, especially those that focus on Black mothers and Black motherhood, can bring healing for everybody.   Much appreciation, P.S. Know someone who would love this conversation? Pay this forward to a friend who may be interested. This Episode is Dedicated by: Sybrina Fulton After the death of her beloved son, Trayvon Benjamin Martin, in February 2012, Sybrina Fulton was charged with a new mission. A desire to transform family tragedy into social change allowed her to establish the Trayvon Martin Foundation in March 2012. As Fulton traverses the globe, she passionately embarks on a journey designed to bring awareness to senseless gun violence and serves as an advocate to families, the catalyst for her dream project, the “Circle of Mothers.” Winning the national support of president-elect Hillary Clinton, Fulton rallied to the forefront in 2016 at the Democratic National Convention with a cadre of African American trailblazing women known as “Mothers of the Movement.” The women, connected by tragedy, are the inspiration behind  “Black Lives Matter.” In 2017, Fulton co-authored her first book, Rest in Power, The Enduring Life of Trayvon Martin, a memoir recounting the death of her son, and the subject of a six-part docuseries, Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story, produced by hip-hop mogul Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter for Paramount Network and BET (July 2018). Bestowed with many distinguished awards, Sybrina Fulton has represented the United States at the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland, to discuss racial discrimination; the National Urban League, Black Lives Matter, Rainbow PUSH Coalition, The Triumph Awards (2016), Essence Festival & Conference (2017, 2018), and was selected as the White House’s guest of honor for the unveiling of former President Barak Obama’s initiative, “My Brother’s Keeper.” Fulton is also one of the 2018 recipients of VH1’s Trailblazer Honor Award. A Miami native and graduate of Florida Memorial University, Sybrina Fulton, along with her son, Jahvaris, are on a mission to build better, safer communities. She is a proud member of the Miami Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. and the Metropolitan Dade County Section of the National Council of Negro Women, Inc. She created the Circle of Mothers to bring together mothers who have lost children or family members to senseless gun violence for the purpose of healing, empowerment, and fellowship towards the larger aim of community building.    Connect with Sybrina: Facebook  Twitter  Instagram Trayvon Martin Foundation   Give a Mother’s Day Gift: Help mothers heal from the loss of a loved one by supporting and donating to the Circle of Mothers, Sybrina’s weekend retreat for mothers who have lost a child to gun violence.

Special thanks to Jill Daniel of Happy Women Dinners for introducing us to Anna and her work!    In This Episode We Talk About: Anna's commitment to fighting the erasure of Black women's stories. What inspired Anna to focus her first book on the mothers of sons of the Civil Rights Movement. How painful moments like George Floyd's murder, and joyful moments like Stacy Abram's organizing in Georgia, had Anna editing and adding more relevance right up until the book was published. Anna’s decision to focus on MLK Jr., Malcolm X and James Baldwin as the three famous sons, and their mothers, Alberta King, Louise Little, and Berdis Baldwin whose stories she would tell. The lessons revealed in Anna's book that all mothers can learn from across the E.P.I.C. guideposts. The importance of acknowledging that Black women are "not a conquered victim" but living through life as a whole human being. Anna's challenge for all mothers listening to expand our awareness through reading and her hope that this book will be seen as a celebration of Black womanhood.   This Episode's Challenge: Anna invites us to think about what we can all read to advance our understanding of different forms of motherhood. Picking up books that focus on Black mothers and Black motherhood can bring healing for everybody. The more we are informed, the more conscious we become.  Anna’s next recommendation after finishing her book: The Power of Purpose by Alicia Garza which begins with a powerful description of the impact of Alicia’s mother on her.    Learn More More About Anna: Anna Malaika Tubbs is an Author, advocate, educator, and a Ph.D. candidate in Sociology at the University of Cambridge.

Sarah Dubbeldam is no stranger to the superficial scrutiny of the media industry. A model for many years, the deterioration of Sarah's mental health drove her to defy the status quo and create more authentic content for women. Darling Magazine was launched as a source of relatable and accessible storytelling on the topics women care most about, and it quickly captured headlines when it became the first publication in the United States to commit to not retouching photography. Sarah dives into that decision, shares where they draw the line as artists and creative professionals, and reflects on her own desire to move the media industry toward inclusivity and female empowerment.

The one where I sit down with Nicole Zasowski to talk about her new book From Lost to Found! Nicole Zasowski is a licensed marriage and family therapist, writer, and speaker. She lives in a small town just outside New York City with her husband, Jimmy and her son, James. With the vulnerability of your closest friend and the wisdom of your most trusted resource, Nicole reveals her own story of how challenges such as unwanted transition, multiple miscarriages, and crippling anxiety gave her empty hands to receive everything she had been looking for in the presence and Person of Jesus Christ. As someone who wears her heart proudly on her sleeve and considers her story to be an open book, Nicole’s message invites others to discover how the surprising path to healing begins when we lose our grip on what we have known, and swerve right into God’s transforming grace, where we find what we need. In addition to maintaining a private practice, her professional work includes leading marriage intensives at The Hideaway Experience in Atlanta, GA, facilitating support and enrichment groups at several local churches in the greater New York City area, and serving as an adjunct professor at Alliance Theological Seminary in Nyack, NY where she taught marriage enrichment courses. A gifted communicator, Nicole speaks regularly on topics that combine psychology and faith and has conducted several seminars and been invited to speak at several retreats throughout New England. Nicole co-authored Families and Forgiveness, Second Edition, (Routledge, 2016) with internationally recognized Marriage and Family Therapist, Dr. Terry Hargrave. She has also been a regular contributor to Darling Magazine – a publication for women that seeks to redefine femininity and challenge women to find their true identity and purpose. Her article, “How to Work a Room When You’d Rather Walk Out of It” was featured on Donald Miller’s Storyline Blog.

Floral LibationsBy Cassie Winslow Intro: Welcome to the Cookery by the Book Podcast, with Suzy Chase. She's just a home cook in New York City, sitting at her dining room table, talking to cookbook authors.Cassie Winslow: Hi, I'm Cassie Winslow, and my book is Floral Libations.Suzy Chase: What got you thinking about incorporating the unique flavors of flowers in beverages?Cassie Winslow: Well, I actually started experimenting with flowers when, years ago, when I was making homemade bath salts. And I realized, I'm using organic lavender and rose, and I'm putting in salt or sugar, and this I could use this as a culinary ingredient. And so, I actually started using it in cooking first, and then started experimenting with simple syrups and adding it, adding flowers that way to drinks, so yeah.Suzy Chase: So where do we start when we wanna stock our pantry with floral goodies?Cassie Winslow: I would say rose salt would be the most versatile thing to make. And the way that my book is laid out, is the first chapter is all about floral pantry. So the two main go-to's I would say would be the rose salt and the lavender sugar. They're both super easy to make, you just blend up the lavender, blend up the rose, and add it to either salt or sugar. And you can use it in cooking, you can use it like I said, making a bath salt, and then you can also make a really nice, simple syrup with the lavender sugar, and you can add it to any drink that you like, whether it's an iced coffee or a cocktail. And then the rose salt's really nice to use to rim glasses for favorite drinks, like Greyhound, or a margarita, of course, a Paloma. And I also like using the rose salt a lot in my cooking. The first time I actually ever used it was, I was making homemade french fries. And I seasoned the french fries with the rose salt, and they were the prettiest fries I've ever had. And they were delicious, too.Suzy Chase: What did it taste like?Cassie Winslow: Well it depends what rose you're using, but it adds a little tanginess to it. It's not really ... Rose isn't the sweetest flower. It can be, I guess, but most of the time, when I'm using rose, it just adds a little tanginess, a little bite to whatever you're using it for. But yeah, try it on french fries, it's a lot of fun.Suzy Chase: How long can we store the salts and the sugars that are in the cookbook?Cassie Winslow: I would say about six months. I've made big batches of the rose salt, and I've had it last for a year, honestly. But just to be on the safe side, I would say about six months. The sugar sometimes, depending on the flower, the bloom that you use in the sugar, it can add a little bit of moisture to the sugar, so it doesn't last as long. The shelf life is a little shorter than with the salt.Suzy Chase: 41 fragrant drinks are in Floral Libations. This book is way more than just dropping an edible flower into a drink. What are some different ways we can incorporate floral flavors into recipes? Other than french fries.Cassie Winslow: Well it's funny that you mention just adding an edible flower, because a lot of times, that's really a good way to incorporate eating flowers more often is just experimenting and tossing them into a salad. Nasturtiums grow crazy in Santa Cruz where I live, and we always have them year round in our yard, and I love just going out and gathering some, throwing them in a salad, and it just adds this beautiful brightness to the dish. And each Nasturtium, each color, tastes totally different. So it's just so much fun to just try something new. If you've never really tasted flowers before, it's fun to just try them. Go to the bulk section of your natural food store and get a little camomile, get a little calendula, and rose, lavender, and just taste them and see what you think, and if you like it. And if you like it, the lavender the most, then you can try experimenting with that. And if it's challenging to find dried flowers at your local natural food store, you can find them online. Or also if you look at the ingredient list, a lot of different teas are just whole flowers. I mention that in the book, too, with a lot of the recipes, like for the camomile syrup, you can just add a tea bag if you can't find camomile flowers in bulk.Suzy Chase: So I know safety is a huge factor in foraging and sourcing. What should we look for on the packaging when we're trying to buy safe, edible flowers? Other than, "Organic." Is there anything else we should watch out for?Cassie Winslow: Yeah, it needs to be organic, and definitely if you're going to use fresh flowers, grow them yourself. It's so easy to just toss some seeds out if you have a little bit of space in your yard. Or you can, I have a whole chapter on growing edible flowers yourself. You could do a little lavender and a little pot, and put it by your front door. And you know what you're putting into the soil. You know that you're not putting pesticides and using pesticides and that sort of thing. So I think grow them yourself, or go to the farmer's market. Growing them yourself is the safest way to go, though, because you know what you're using.Suzy Chase: In the book, you talk about dried versus fresh. What's the difference and what do you prefer?Cassie Winslow: I prefer ... That's a good question, because you can use them for different things. Definitely for fresh flowers, using them as a garnish is really nice, and also like I said, using them in salads and that sort of thing is really lovely. The thing that I like most about the dried flowers is they're easy to get your hands on. Like I said, you can find them in little tea packets or you could even find them online, too, they're really easy to come by. And the flavor is more concentrated. So for example, the rose petal sugar recipe that I have in the book, you can make it two different ways. One way, I use dried roses, and you just blend up the dried roses and then mix it with the sugar. Or another way that I can infuse some sugar using roses is I will grab a handful of fresh rose petals, and then let them sit in sugar for a week, and just mix them every day, and it is a more gentle flavor, I would say, than the dried rose. It's just more subtle. So it depends what you like. If you really like that bright, floral concentrated flavor, then dried flowers are going to be your friend. If you just wanna start slowly, then I would say try with fresh flowers and just add them as a garnish, and just taste. Taste and experiment.Suzy Chase: By the way, the photos in this book look like still-life paintings.Cassie Winslow: I really love the way that it turned out. Joan did an amazing job. It really is a love song to flowers in the way she captured the drinks in such a lovely, unique way.Suzy Chase: Was this your vision? Talk a bit about the design aspect of the book.Cassie Winslow: Yeah, when we were talking about, when I was talking to my editor about what I wanted the book to look like, I wanted photos, photos, photos, for every single recipe, pretty much. And that's pretty much how it turned out. I'm such a visual person, that when I'm looking through a cookbook, it's so helpful to see what it looks like, rather than trying to envision it myself. And of course, the flowers, they're so beautiful, and they add so much color and life to the drinks that I just really wanted to be able to showcase that for each recipe.Suzy Chase: You have drinks for different occasions, like Mother's Day, which is coming up, Spring bridal showers, a kid's birthday party, or even a beach bonfire. What would you recommend for Mother's Day, out of your book?Cassie Winslow: Oh the lavender, the lavender gin lemonade is so delicious. And it's really easy to make. So I think that that could be a really good first go-to recipe. And everyone loves it. It's just a great crowd pleaser, and it's so pretty, too. I was just actually making it last week with someone, and we made the rose simple syrup, and then added the lemon juice to it, and it just turned this bright pink color, it's so pretty. That's a good one to make for your mama, for Mother's Day.Suzy Chase: And I bet you could make one non-alcoholic. I guess you could just take the gin out.Cassie Winslow: That's what's so great about it, yeah. You just don't add the gin, and it still has lavender in it, because you're making the lavender simple syrup.Suzy Chase: Tell me about your blog called, "Deco Tartelette."Cassie Winslow: Yes. Well, I started Deco Tartelette, I wanna say five months ago. Has it been that long? My goodness. My husband and I were living in the middle of the redwoods in the Santa Cruz mountains, and I just was needing a creative outlet, and I had never even heard of a blog before. And we were, at that time, thinking about moving to Paris. We ended up not moving to Paris, long story. We moved to Hollywood instead. But I had discovered this blog of Oh Happy Day, actually. She had lived in Paris and I thought, "This is so much fun! I would love to do something like this." So I started the blog, and I did some fashion stuff, and stuff like I mentioned, I was making some homemade bath salts and homemade body care stuff. [inaudible 00:09:56] and just started posting recipes that I was making. I think the first recipe I posted was a blackberry lavender crumble that Darling Magazine actually ended up featuring, and then I ended up collaborating with them quite a bit. But yeah, it's been a creative outlet for me and because I love flowers so much, I've always incorporated them into the blog somehow. So over the years, since becoming a mama and not really having as much extra time to go and do these elaborate fashion shoots. That has dissipated a little bit. We still try to incorporate that a little bit. When I say we, I mean my husband. My husband helps me with the blog. But yeah, it's really transformed into a focus on floral recipes, which has been a lot of fun.Suzy Chase: Okay, now to my segment called, "My Last Meal." What would you have for your last supper? No pressure.Cassie Winslow: Oh my goodness. Can I come up with two? Or does it have to be one?Suzy Chase: Yes, you could totally come up with two, sure.Cassie Winslow: Okay. Okay, so I would say my husband's Milanese is one of my favorite things in the world, with a yummy salad, with a big piece of garlic bread, covered with herbs and of course sprinkled with some rose salt. That would be one. And then the other, hamburger, french fries and a strawberry lavender milkshake.Suzy Chase: That sounds great. I'm so hungry, that sounds really good. Where can we find you on the web and social media?Cassie Winslow: So my website is decotartelette.com, and you can find me on Instagram and Pinterest @decotartelette.Suzy Chase: Flowers don't belong just in the garden or a vase, but in imaginative libations, as well. Thanks so much, Cassie, for coming on Cookery by the Book Podcast.Cassie Winslow: Thank you, Suzy! This has been so much fun, it's great speaking with you.Outro: Follow Suzy Chase on Instagram, @cookerybythebook, and subscribe at cookerybythebook.com or in Apple Podcasts.

One of the things I talk about a lot is the fact that there are a lot of layers to the ethical and fair trade fashion world. It’s not just about pretty, handmade clothes. There are so many complex issues that really hide beneath the surface, or sometimes maybe they’re brought to the surface. Everything from the orphan crisis to human trafficking to child and slave labor, all those types of things really are there hiding beneath the surface and it’s time that we talk about those issues so that people can understand why ethical and fair trade fashion is so important and why it’s important to be purchasing from companies and brands that you know the practices behind the things that they make. And it’s time, in my opinion, that we talk about those things and we bring them to the surface and we make it not scary anymore to have difficult conversations! My guest this week is Carly Burson, the founder of Tribe Alive. Tribe Alive is one of my favorite ethical fashion brands. They employ and empower artisans in 6 countries around the world and they are the epitome of a brand that’s changing communities, countries, and people’s lives. This was such a fun conversation and we talk about just about everything. I know you’re going to love it! WHEN ORPHANS AREN’T REALLY ORPHANS The inspiration behind Tribe Alive came from the adoption of of Carly’s daughter when Carly and her husband went to Ethiopia to finalize the adoption. Carly had no idea just how life-changing this trip would be. After spending time in their daughter’s orphanage, she realized that many of these orphans weren’t actually orphans at all. Carly and I chat about parents not given the choice or the chance to raise their kids and how this trip inspired her to make a change in her professional life. TEACH A PERSON TO FISH Carly knew from the very beginning that Tribe Alive wasn’t going to be based of a give-back model. While charity is important, many people don’t realize how charity can hurt a community. Carly never wanted to give anything away, she wanted to create opportunity for people to earn for themselves and stand on their own two feet. Carly and I talk about helping others live successfully and why Africa is fed up with the West’s hand-me-downs. ETHICAL NOT EXCLUSIVE Joining the ethical and fair trade fashion can be very intimidating. Many people established in this community often take the ‘all or nothing’ view, which honestly isn’t realistic for most people and sometimes even makes me feel like a little bit of an outsider.  At the end of the day, it’s important to recognize that there is right and wrong, but that it should be all or nothing. Carly and I discuss the importance of being accepting and accessible and how to make changes over time. About Carly Burson, Founder of Tribe Alive: Carly Burson is the founder and CEO of lifestyle brand Tribe Alive. The name Tribe Alive came from her ambition to build more than just a company but rather her desire to build a movement. When Carly Burson began her adoption journey, she knew that becoming a mother would profoundly impact her life. She never imagined that it would alter the course of her life’s work. Although adoption presents an opportunity to support an individual child, Carly was struck by the desire to address the core issue of child relinquishment on a global scale: namely, the economic insecurity facing women in the developing world. Tribe Alive was born from Carly’s decision to utilize her years of experience in the fashion industry as a platform to alleviate poverty among people in the developing world. Carly believes that ethical fashion has the power to change lives, and it is her hope that Tribe Alive's artisans will be empowered with the means to care for their families. Carly has been interviewed and featured by Darling Magazine, The Good Trade, The Bump, and Pop Sugar to name a few and is admired nationally and internationally for her work and inspiring story. Carly lives in Fort Worth, Texas with her husband Kyle, 7 year old daughter Elie, 18 year old daughter Pricila, 3 year old granddaughter Flory, and four-legged soulmate, Remy Dog. “I loved the challenge of competing with brands that cause poverty through their production while our platform alleviates it. It’s our way of exposing the fact that you do not need to compromise the human factor of business in order to succeed.” - Carly Burson CONNECT WITH CARLY: Website: https://tribealive.com Instagram: @tribealive  | @carlyrburson Twitter: @tribealive Facebook: Tribe Alive  | Carly Burson Pinterest: Tribe Alive LinkedIn: Carly Burson Poshmark: Tribe Alive Special thanks to CAUSEBOX for sponsoring this week’s Business with Purpose podcast.

Death has no respect for the differences we have created among us; we will each be touched by it. Those left behind often report feeling disconnected from the events of the world, as if the one who died took a part of them with. For a period of time people check in, give their condolences, share memories. Slowly, but often not slowly enough, people stop asking. There is an expectation that death is something to get over, something to move on from. We are to be sad, of course, but we are expected to say goodbye and let go. In this episode Dr. Cassidy explores how the discourses of "letting go" and "saying goodbye" actually challenges our grief process. Instead of letting go, what if the result of grieving was to restore what has been lost? To read an article Dr. Cassidy wrote for Darling Magazine blog on this topic, click here.

We’re taking a deep dive the fundamental problem of retouching in media, why narrowing the definition of beauty is not healthy, how to replace lies with truth, and the upcoming documentary, self(i.e.), with Sarah Dubbeldam, CEO of DARLING Media and Editor-in-Chief of DARLING Magazine. Sarah Dubbeldam is founder of DARLING, a multi-media company that is positively redefining female-driven digital, social and print content. She serves as CEO of DARLING Media and Editor-in-Chief of DARLING Magazine. After graduating from Concordia University, Sarah was signed by one of the world’s top modeling agencies. Although her modeling career was met with success through national campaigns, after a few years she was fed up with feeling insecure and depressed, questioning what she was doing with her life. Sarah put her dissatisfaction into action and over coffee with her best friend Kelli, came up with the idea of launching DARLING, a magazine that broadened the ideal of “beauty” with an authentic and elevated conversation for women. The goal: creating media that matters. Five years after first developing the concept, Sarah turned to Kickstarter in 2012 to get the print magazine off the ground. Since then the company has grown into different verticals such as video, online, social media and events and has become a movement to build women’s self-esteem. DARLING is the only women’s magazine that does not retouch women’s skin or bodies and seeks to represent a wide range of sizes, ages and ethnicities. The cultural phenomenon Sarah has created can be seen in the hashtags #thatsdarling, #darlingmovement and #darlingweekend that have been used more than 15 million times on social media.   Key Takeaways The DARLING founding story, and how the mission statement came to be. The decision to not retouch images in the magazine. The difference between filters and retouching. Sarah’s definition of perfectionism and the ideal of beauty throughout the years. The problem with narrowing the idea of beauty. “A flaw is only a flaw if it’s measured against an ideal.” Sarah Dubbeldam “Your body is your home. The only thing holding you back is believing there’s something wrong with you.” self(i.e.) Replacing lies with truth. Bringing awareness to self-critical thoughts and sharing these thoughts with a supportive community. Learning to have healthy thought patterns is what it really means to be healthy.   Show Resources DARLING mission statement. self(i.e.): the search for real self-esteem in a retouched world   Guest Information Website: darlingmagazine.com Instagram: @darlingmagazine @sarahdubbs Show the Feel Good Effect Love Share it via Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, or Twitter Leave an honest review on Apple Podcasts.

Our mission is to transform the incredible collective of everyday travelers into a financial force that betters the health and wellbeing of individuals, the environment, and animals.

As a proud vegan and animal welfare advocate, I practice yoga and ballet when I'm not working on Kind Traveler initiatives!

She then spent 10 years as an Associate Publisher and Advertising Director with popular print & digital fashion and lifestyle magazine start-ups including 944 Magazine and Foam Magazine in San Diego and Los Angeles. Her entrepreneurial journey began as the five-year Principal of LA-based brand consultancy, Publicly Loved, where her clients included luxury real estate moguls like CIM Group and Marriott Hotels.

Over the last six years you could find her searching for homes for LA’s homeless pet population on death row and educating the public on the importance of spaying and neutering as a volunteer with Best Friends Animal Society, Carson Cats, and Much Love Animal Rescue. As a passionate voice for animals, she's served as a reporter interviewing celebrities such as Bob Barker, Willie Nelson, Ian Somerhalder, and Russell Simmons to create awareness around the importance of avoiding circuses that involve animals, ending the illegal wildlife trade, and the need to end factory farming with Animal Defenders International, Humane Society of the U.S., WildAid, and Animal Hero Kids.

Ann is passionate about helping other writers tell their stories powerfully. I sat under Ann’s teaching via her online writing course, Writing With Grace. I’m so excited to have her with us today on the Journeywomen podcast to share her story of waiting and to help us better understand how we can share our stories in light of the gospel. As you will hear, the way Ann communicates her story of waiting is potent.
