In this episode, Pagan Kennedy, author of "The Secret History of the Rape Kit," reveals the untold story behind the rape kit, a forensic tool that revolutionized sexual assault investigations but whose creator, Marty Goddard, was erased from history. Through meticulous research, Kennedy uncovered how Goddard developed this life-changing evidence collection system in 1970s Chicago while facing systemic barriers and police attitudes that dismissed victims.When Kennedy began researching the origins of the rape kit, she expected a straightforward story. What she discovered instead was a buried history of female innovation deliberately erased from public record. In 1970s Chicago, Marty Goddard encountered a system where police manuals explicitly stated "most women who report rapes are lying" and evidence collection was an afterthought. Determined to create change, Goddard developed a standardized system for collecting sexual assault evidence that would give credibility to survivors' accounts through science.Kennedy's research exposes concerning modern issues as well. Despite DNA testing revolutionizing forensics, rape kits remain largely unchanged since the 1970s. With over 1,000 different versions nationwide, inconsistent protocols, invasive questioning, and accessibility barriers continue to plague the system. Perhaps most troubling is the persistent devaluation of sexual assault evidence, evidenced by the hundreds of thousands of untested kits discovered in warehouses nationwide.The most revealing aspect of this history is Goddard's strategic decision to name the kit after police chief Louis Vitullo, knowing that in the male-dominated world of law enforcement, a woman's invention would never be adopted. This sacrifice ensured implementation but cost Goddard her rightful place in history until Kennedy's journalism brought her contributions to light. Now housed in the Smithsonian, the original rape kit represents both a breakthrough and a reminder of how women's contributions are often obscured.

There are many requirements that a biological parent must meet in order to reunify with their children. While these requirements are necessary to ensure that children are being reunited with parents who can provide a safe and stable environment, many parents struggle to overcome the circumstances that led to their children being placed in foster care in the first place. In the state of Illinois, the reunification rate was just 20% in 2021. Just as children and foster parents need a supportive community, biological parents working toward reunification need a strong, steady network around them too. One such parent is Jacob Jackson. After a car accident, Jacob found himself addicted to prescription drugs, which led him into a tumultuous season of life. When he was at the end of his rope, Jacob attempted to take his own life. With nowhere else to turn, he entered the Louisiana Adult & Teen Challenge and by the grace of God found a connection with a local church.  It was during this time that Jacob learned his children had entered foster care. Determined to reunite with them, he threw himself into recovery, working tirelessly to complete the program and meet every requirement needed to regain full custody. In this episode, you'll hear the obstacles Jacob had to overcome, the ways that anyone can fall into difficult circumstances, how the support of the local church played a vital role in reunification, and much more.

When we—Gil & Gene—are curious about where people are choosing to retire, we often turn to the “Where To Retire” Facebook Group for inspiration. That's where we became intrigued by Marilyn Kaslofski, the group's Administrator, who chose Racine, Wisconsin as her retirement destination. We were eager to find out why, so we invited her to share her story on our show! Marilyn's husband had always dreamed of living by the water, and at first, Florida seemed like a natural choice—until Marilyn, who strongly dislikes hot weather, ruled it out. Determined to find a place they would both love, she launched an extensive search of towns and cities along the shores of Lake Michigan. One Indiana town had attractive lakefront homes, but Marilyn preferred a condo. Chicago was too pricey, and the Milwaukee condos were too far from the water. Then they discovered Racine—just right in terms of location, lifestyle, and affordability. The couple ultimately purchased a two-bedroom lakeview condo for $245,000. While it needed some updating, it checked all the boxes. Hear the full story of Marilyn's journey to Racine on Episode 211 of Retire There with Gil & Gene. #retirethere #retiretherepodcast #retirewhere #retireabroad #retirehere #wheretoretire #retireearly #bestplacetoretire #retirement #retirementplanning #babyboomers #genxers #racine #racinewi #racinewisconsin #racinearchitecture #franklloydwrightarchitecture #lakefronthomes #rootriver #lakemichigan

At just 19, I took a bold step and opened my own body shop in my small rural town. However, I quickly learned that success requires more than ambition and a strong work ethic. After a series of financial missteps, I was forced to close the business, leaving me feeling lost and searching for direction.""Determined to rebuild my life on a solid foundation, I began a personal journey to find true stability—mentally, spiritually, and financially. As I learned and applied the principles that transformed my own life, I realized that countless other young men were struggling with the same challenges.

Some wounds don't come from the battlefield-they come from within the ranks. Brandon Caserta was strong. Disciplined. Determined. He had a dream to serve in the military, to push himself to the limits, to be part of something greater than himself.

What causes people to change? We have a really tough time actually shifting who we are, and how we're walking through the world. The answer is one that I touched on, in the very first podcast episode of the Game on Girlfriend podcast when I said, “don't live a life of almosts.” Sun Yong Kim-Manzolini was born in South Korea and abandoned at birth by her family. She spent her early years in an orphanage, enduring hardships that she likened to living in a modern-day concentration camp. Today, Sun Yong is a highly successful seven-figure entrepreneur and the CEO of Lush Enterprises, LLC. In 2015, she retired from a $35,000 a year job with no savings and limited resources. Determined to change her circumstances, she dedicated herself to options trading. By the end of her first year, she had earned $178,000, six times her previous annual revenue. She believes that true freedom comes from living authentically, pursuing dreams without fear, and achieving financial security. Sun Yong says being orphaned gave her a sense of abandonment – no one invested in her. She was adopted by an American family and eventually got her dream job as a certified medical assistant.  But she was missing something. She wondered how she got there. “So that's when I started investing myself by saying, I'm going to retire, even though it was my dream job,” says Sun Yong. She decided she would retire within a year. She had $10 in her account and was living paycheck to paycheck.  “Of course I was scared, but I thought for me to invest in myself, I have to get those things out of my mind,” she said. “I have to start taking actions. So that's the beginning of investing in ourselves. And it is very, very critical. The reason is because if we don't invest in ourselves, who's going to invest in you?” Sun Yong says she started to learn to serve herself, as she had with her patients. She started talking about her own story – even the ugly parts that she didn't want to share with others. She says we tend to focus on negative things, what we've heard and what we've faced. We might think we're not worthy – the excuses and reasons are easy to find. Sun Yong said the decision to change was made easier watching the lives of her patients. She says some of them were struggling as they got older, and in some cases by the time they were ready to retire they were too sick to enjoy it. It prompted Sun Yong to retire while she was still healthy and could enjoy life. Sun Yong says once you have healed, you can help others from your present self without focusing on the past.  “I'm no longer an orphan, but a lot of times we hang on to this thing like ‘Oh, I'm an orphan,'” she says. “We have to let go of the things that we used to be.” She says it takes many pieces to become who we are – from investing with money, investing within ourselves mentally, investing in ourselves with who we spend our time with.  You have to implement every part on a daily basis to have a balanced life from your physical and mental health, to your financial stability and your relationships. To start living the life you want, you need to take action. This is likely going to be something you've never done before. But the fear will be there. Sun Yong says to think of it like loading a new album into your brain, so a new record starts to play. I want to do this! Oh no, I can't. I don't have the time. You have never done that before.  The record's on repeat. So you need to do something different from how you talk to yourself, the way you talk to others, and the way you act when nobody is watching.  What can you do differently today than what you did yesterday? Those actions will be different results. “Think about how special you are, and there's only one you. You're one of a kind in the world, right? And you have to give the best treatment that you could give to yourself.” Free gift: Read one free chapter of Sun Yong's book, Invest in Yourself: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15XW8p-qlJsMoBc1TfOhKH3MIEk15OOI2/view?usp=sharing Connect with Sun Yong: https://dreambigsetgoals.club/  Other GoG episodes you might want to check out: Power of Pause: Why Your Brain Cannot Solve the Problem: https://sarahwalton.com/take-pause/  Overcome Societal Expectations of ‘You're Not Enough': https://sarahwalton.com/societal-expectations-for-women/  You can check out our podcast interviews on YouTube, too! http://bit.ly/YouTubeSWalton   Thank you so much for listening.

The most powerful change comes from combining financial technology with a genuine desire to help people succeed—especially first-time buyers who often lack guidance and support.Timothy Griggs, CEO and Founder of Kribsavup, knows firsthand how heartbreaking it can be to deliver a mortgage denial to someone whose only mistake was not understanding the process. As Timothy explained in this episode, “They have a vision for their family. They have a good heart, but they have no idea about the steps to take to prepare for homeownership… That just hurts my heart and me wanting to help them prepare for homeownership.”That pain point inspired Timothy to create Kribsavup—a social fintech app designed to help users understand their finances, monitor their credit, and get ready for the mortgage process well before applying. Kribsavup links accounts, provides real-time credit information, and enables users to invite friends and family members to join them on the journey. “You can save together. You can improve your finances together. We're not sharing data. We're very sensitive about that. But the users can actually interact with each other,” Timothy shared.The app also brings in gamification and AI features to make the process less daunting and more engaging. Timothy described how users can compete with an AI character, Stuart, in a race to better credit and stronger finances. This approach aims to make financial health not just accessible but enjoyable, especially for young people and those unfamiliar with the complexities of buying a home.Kribsavup is currently available in app stores, and Timothy is inviting the crowd to participate directly in the company's growth through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Netcapital. “We are seeking to get help by going to our audience and investors to come on board to see our vision and to help us get this out to market, to get Kribsavup out to the market, get it out to the users, get it into our communities to be able to help users to be able to improve the process of home ownership,” Timothy said.By blending technology, community, and a clear mission, Kribsavup stands out as a tool designed not just to help people buy homes, but to transform lives and build a stronger path toward financial wellness. The opportunity to invest alongside the Kribsavup team makes this an especially compelling story for anyone who believes in the power of impact crowdfunding to change the world.tl;dr:Timothy Griggs shares how Kribsavup helps first-time homebuyers prepare for mortgage success.The app offers gamification, real-time credit info, and community support for financial wellness.Kribsavup is raising capital through regulated investment crowdfunding on Netcapital.Timothy's superpower is his faith-driven passion to help others achieve homeownership.Personal stories highlight the impact of encouragement, guidance, and community support in reaching financial goals.How to Develop Faith-Driven Passion As a SuperpowerTimothy's superpower is an unwavering faith and deep passion to help others achieve homeownership and financial security. As Timothy described, “It's my superpower, my faith, my passion to see this get into the hands of people that really need it… It's a passion to be able to help users in our communities to be able to purchase a home.” His drive comes from seeing the dream of homeownership diminish for younger generations and wanting to keep that hope alive, making the process engaging and accessible for all.One story Timothy shared illustrates his superpower in action. A longtime friend who owned a beauty salon wanted to buy a home but didn't realize her business tax filings made her ineligible for a loan. Timothy patiently counseled her, laying out specific steps she would need to take to qualify. She followed his advice, and a year later, Timothy was able to help her secure a home for her family. The reward of seeing her succeed—and knowing he played a part—motivated him to help many others with similar challenges, always providing encouragement and guidance through the process.Timothy's suggestions for developing faith-driven passion as a personal strength include:Encourage others, especially younger generations, to believe homeownership is possibleLead with faith and keep moving forward despite setbacksSeek out people and groups who share your mission to help othersProvide clear, actionable steps for those you mentor or supportCelebrate the successes of those you help to keep your own passion aliveBy following Timothy's example and advice, you can make faith-driven passion a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Last week, we brought you Part 1 of Larry Riegel's story. You learned about Larry's life, career, and sudden disappearance from Yakima, Washington, around Christmas in 2009. On Christmas morning, Larry spoke with his mother, and around 4 PM that afternoon, he had a conversation with his son, Brian. But when Brian called back later that evening, Larry didn't answer. Larry had planned to visit his family the day after Christmas, but when he failed to show up for their annual holiday gathering on the evening of December 26, they knew something was wrong. Larry would never have missed the family celebration, especially without letting them know. At the time, Larry was living with his girlfriend, Ladena. Family members contacted Ladena to inquire about Larry, but they were met with a series of contradictory, shifting stories. Ladena claimed Larry had left for the coast, even though Larry hated traveling there. This was another red flag for Larry's family.Determined to find answers, Larry's sister, Susan, went directly to Ladena. Susan was met with a confusing mix of bizarre and inconsistent tales that didn't seem to lead anywhere. Susan couldn't make sense of it at the time, but over the years, some of those details began to take on new meaning.The family launched their own search, trying to find anyone who had seen or heard from Larry. Despite their efforts, no solid leads emerged. As weeks passed, Larry's family only felt more desperate. In January, they decided to report Larry missing. However, when one of Larry's sisters tried to file the report, she was told she couldn't report Larry missing. Larry's sisters were shocked to learn that on January 5, many days after Larry's Christmas disappearance, Ladena had gone to the police, claiming that Larry returned to their home and assaulted her on January 4. That accusation dramatically altered the perception of Larry's character and disappearance. Authorities believed he was on the run. To those who knew Larry best, none of this added up.Years later, frustrated by the lack of progress and the mounting inconsistencies, Larry's family demanded a meeting with the police chief. That meeting marked a pivotal moment in the case.

Fifteen-year-old and co-founder of Lookupp, Atiksh Bhan, remembers when life was better. He and his friends would spend their afternoons biking, exploring the woods and playing games outside. But then, smartphones came along. =Instead of adventures, they'd spend their time sitting around, scrolling through TikTok. "We'd be huddled around one phone, looking over someone's shoulder. It just wasn't fun anymore," Atiksh says. And even though they were ‘connected' through technology, he felt lonelier than ever. Atiksh and his brother only had basic flip phones, but they started to notice a shift in their peers who had smartphones: increasing anxiety, depression and eating disorders. Adding phones to typical teen dilemmas, like breakups and friend drama, was like throwing gasoline on a fire. Determined to make a change, they created LookUpp – an app that rewards you for staying off your phone when you're with people you care about. The longer your screen is off, the more points you earn. And they're teaming up with parents, communities, and local businesses to translate points into real-life rewards. Tune in to hear directly from Atiksh, a teen navigating the digital age, as he and Nicki from Scrolling 2 Death talk about rebuilding connections, before it's too late.

A man viciously assaults his ex-girlfriend in a brutal, repeated act of violence. Determined to stop him for good, Prosecutor Kristin pours everything into building an airtight case. But once inside the courtroom, the proceedings take an unexpected turn, unraveling in ways she never could have predicted. With years of experience, Kristin knows how to prepare for trial—but this case proves that even the most dedicated prosecutors are sometimes at the mercy of the very people they're fighting to protect: the victims. Kristin began her legal career in 1992 working as a deputy prosecuting attorney for King County, WA. In her ten years as a criminal prosecutor, Kristin conducted over 50 jury trials while working in several different divisions. Her caseload ranged from property crime to homicide, but she spent the majority of her time prosecuting domestic violence. Kristin attended the National Advocacy Center (NAC) in Columbia, SC and became a trial advocacy instructor at the NAC before leaving King County to take a position with the Vermont Department of Public Safety.

Emphasizing the importance of risk management, discipline, and emotional intelligence, and maintaining a mental edge in trading, he discusses his early experiences with commodities, the evolution of his trading strategies, and the significance of networking and mentorship.

A traumatic first birth can shape everything that follows—but with the right support, education, and advocacy, it's possible to turn fear into empowerment.   In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker sits down with EBB Childbirth Class Graduates Rivka and Steven Dubinsky as they share the transformative journey from a traumatic hospital induction and birth injury to a redemptive second birth experience centered on autonomy, education, and trust. Rivka opens up about how her first birth left her physically injured and emotionally shaken, and how she didn't initially recognize it as trauma. Over time—and with therapy, research, and support—she came to understand what had been taken from her. Determined to have a different experience with her second child, she carefully selected a trauma-informed OB, dove into birth education, and found strength in preparing for every possibility.   Together, Rivka and Steven share how they prepared as a team, how Steven stepped into his advocacy role during labor, and why they chose to “fire” a hospital-assigned doula. They also reflect on the surprising power of reclaiming their voice—even in the midst of pain—and how a supported birth experience can shift everything.   Content Note: This episode includes discussion of birth trauma.

In part two of Janna's conversation with Ryan, he opens up about his decision to wait until marriage to have sex—a choice rooted in a desire to escape the guilt he'd carried for most of his life. While the experience was fine at first, their intimacy gradually faded. Over time, Ryan began to feel isolated and deeply unloved. Determined to fix their relationship, he turned to podcasts and books for advice. But as his frustration grew, he found himself blaming his wife for not putting in the same level of effort.Ironically, it was his wife who discovered the Doing It Together course and suggested they try it. Ryan admits that much of the content wasn't entirely new to him. What was new, however, was seeing that information through the lens of intimacy within marriage. It shifted his entire perspective. Instead of focusing on what he saw as her "problem," Ryan began to reflect on his own role in their dynamic. The course helped him realize the powerful impact of making changes on his side—both emotionally and physically—which began to transform their connection, in and out of the bedroom.The next round of Doing It Together is open for registration!

The government of Zimbabwe is pressing ahead with compensating white citizens who lost their farms due to the country's land reform programme. Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube recently told the media that the time has come. “We struck an agreement a few years back and we have now begun to honour that agreement”The controversial law, which was introduced in the year 2000, led to at least 4,000 white citizens being kicked out of their farms to make way for their black counterparts. The then president Robert Mugabe argued that he was addressing historical injustices. During the colonial era, much of the country's best and arable land was reserved for the white population. Black farmers were forced onto marginal areas. But some farmers are rejecting the offer made by president Emmerson Mnangagwa's government. Africa Daily's Mpho Lakaje finds out why this is such a complex matter.Guests: Ish Mafundikwa, Harry Orphanides, Ben Freeth, Professor Mandivamba Rukuni and Taruvinga Magwiroto

Dr. Jim Interviews Dr. Richard FreedIn this powerful episode, Dr. Jim sits down with psychologist and author Dr. Richard Freed, whose new book Better Than Real Life examines how persuasive design is reshaping childhood—and not for the better. Dr. Freed's work has been featured in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and other major media outlets. And he's also the author of the influential book Wired Child.You'll hear a personal story about Dr. Freed's long-lost Harvard certificate. And you'll learn about his roots in Silicon Valley—back when it was covered in orange groves (okay, maybe not that long ago) and chips meant Pringles. Dr. Freed pulls back the curtain on persuasive design and what Jim calls “attention fracking”—how screen-based platforms, powered by behavioral science, hijack kids' attention and emotions for profit. He explores how Big Tech uses these tools to draw children into the multiverse of social media, video games, and streaming content—stealing them away from the real-world experiences they need to thrive.Determined to speak truth to power, Dr. Freed exposes the science behind screen addiction and how it renders young minds vulnerable to manipulation. He makes the case for reclaiming a childhood centered on family, education, nature, and real human connection—not devices engineered for dependency.This episode is essential listening for parents, educators, and anyone concerned with the future of childhood in the digital age.WCMI networking group A networking group for mindfulness-focused clinicians dedicated to learning together & collaborating for more information click here

For law enforcement, Courage means looking beyond the traditional victim interview technique to recognize how and why victims of assault may act differently than victims of crimes.   She purchased a cemetery plot, purchased the outfit she wanted to be buried in, and made the decision that morning was going to be the day Sherrie Allsup no longer lived to endure the pain she lived daily throughout her life. Yet, those were not the cards that she was dealt. That was the moment that she began to take her power back. Sherrie Allsup's journey took a profound turn when faced with the contemplation of ending her life, she instead chose to reclaim her power. She now travels and shares her story to shine a light on the lifelong challenges that sexual abuse and trauma leave behind. Her pieces of training are centered around shining a light on the dark epidemic of sexual abuse and assault. She is also a member of RAINN (Rape, Abuse, Incest, and Neglect Network). She says, “Trauma victims almost live plan to plan or we wouldn't survive.” Embracing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) psychotherapy, Sherrie embarked on a new chapter. In her own words, “This sentiment encapsulates her life, where she navigated each moment with a flickering flashlight, battling the pain that haunted her daily. Determined to break free from the past, she decided that the grip of her father's years of abuse is not going to define her”. Find Sherrie AllsupWebsiteFacebookLinkedinFind The Suffering PodcastThe Suffering Podcast InstagramKevin Donaldson InstagramTom Flynn InstagramApple PodcastSpotifyYouTubeThe Suffering Podcast FamilySherri AllsupKetaReviveToyota of HackensackSupport the showThe Suffering Podcast Instagram Kevin Donaldson Instagram TikTok YouTube

On today's episode I'm joined by a long time friend and cycling buddy of mine, Kerry Snow. Kerry was our 2nd place East Texas Showdown in the women's category and was 10th overall. While an impressive accomplishment on its own, Kerry's effort was even more incredible considering that she is undergoing chemotherapy for stage 2 breast cancer. Determined to not let cancer dictate her life, she has continued to maintain an active lifestyle by working out, riding her bike, and even competing in the 400 mile East Texas Showdown this last March. Along her way she raised money for a local non-profit, BCS Fights Cancer, and was able to raise over $15,000 for this organization alongside her friend and riding partner Maegan Fitzgerald. Kerry and I live in the same town and have been riding bikes together for longer than I can remember. I know her to be a physically and mentally strong rider and I credit her with being one of the people who inspired me to get into bikepacking. It was a true pleasure to have her on the podcast. I appreciate her sharing her experiences on her cancer journey and wish her well as she kicks it's ass!
