Podcasts about Diversity

There is a quiet conversation happening inside your body that may be shaping your fertility more than almost anything else you have been told to focus on. It is happening in your gut, your reproductive tract, and your uterus. Until recently, science assumed the uterus was sterile. We now know it is not, and the bacterial communities living in these three places are in constant communication with one another, influencing your hormones, your immune response, and your ability to conceive and carry a pregnancy. In this solo episode, Michelle walks you through what the research actually shows about the gut, vaginal, and uterine microbiomes, why this is one of the most overlooked pieces of the fertility puzzle, and what you can realistically do to support these ecosystems without falling into fear or expensive supplement spirals. You will learn why diversity is wonderful in the gut but not always ideal in the reproductive tract, how the estrobolome regulates your hormones, and how nervous system regulation, sleep, fiber, and fermented foods quietly shape the entire system. This is a grounded, science-backed conversation that gives you a clearer map of your own body. Key Takeaways: The uterus is not sterile. It has its own microbiome that influences implantation, pregnancy, and live birth rates. A reproductive tract dominated by Lactobacillus is associated with significantly better fertility outcomes, including higher IVF success and lower miscarriage and preterm birth rates. Diversity in the gut microbiome is healthy. In the uterus and lower reproductive tract, the opposite is true. A quieter, Lactobacillus-dominant environment is what supports fertility. The estrobolome, a collection of gut bacteria, regulates how your body metabolizes and clears estrogen. When it is off, estrogen can recirculate and contribute to issues like endometriosis, fibroids, and irregular cycles. Roughly 70 percent of your immune system lives in your gut, and gut inflammation can show up as uterine inflammation, affecting implantation. Antibiotics, hormonal birth control, chronic stress, poor sleep, and harsh products like douches and scented washes all disrupt these microbiomes. Foundational support is simple and accessible: a wide variety of plant fibers, real fermented foods, consistent sleep, nervous system regulation, and leaving the lower reproductive tract alone. Microbiome testing is now far more accessible and gives you specific information about your own body, so you can stop guessing and make targeted choices instead of throwing every wellness tool at the problem.

Are you truly prepared for the moment God calls your name?In this episode of The Purpose City Church Podcast, we continue our powerful message series, Unstoppable: A Journey Through the Book of Acts. Speaker Kyle Welton takes us into Acts chapter 13 to unpack what it means to live in a constant state of spiritual preparation."Jesus will call, but you prepare in His presence."Through the unexpected stories of football legend Tom Brady, a high school driver's education lesson, and the first missionary journey of Barnabas and Saul, Kyle illustrates that our walk with God is about deep communion rather than transactional rewards. We also learn how to navigate, confront, and overcome the inevitable opposition that comes when we step out in obedience.Key Takeaways From This MessageThe Purpose of Preparation: True preparation is a daily walk of worship, prayer, and fasting. It requires positioning your mind, body, and soul to submit entirely to His authority.Diversity in the Kingdom: A profound look at how the early church at Antioch intentionally brought together people from completely different backgrounds, colors, and nationalities for one single mission.Overcoming Spiritual Opposition: Why obedience often attracts warfare, and how Paul used the power and discernment of the Holy Spirit to look the enemy in the eye and stand in victory.Intergenerational Unity: A vital call for the older generation to actively pass down their wisdom and for the younger generation to remain humble, coachable, and ready to learn.Reflection Questions For Your WeekHave you positioned your daily life to be consistently immersed in the presence of God?Did you do the last thing that God explicitly told you to do?Are you attempting to walk this journey of faith alone, or are you actively connecting with a community of believers?Next Steps and ResourcesJoin a Purpose Group: Do not allow the enemy to isolate you.

In this episode of Crossing Faiths, John Pinna and Elliot Toman discuss the multifaceted nature of religion, dynamic interpretations of Islamic principles, and the socioeconomic impacts of modern capitalism. The conversation begins with a casual sci-fi reference to Star Trek and quickly segments into a philosophical debate regarding whether religion is meant to enforce a collective societal order or serve as a strictly personal, inward-facing moral code. Pinna delves into standard Islamic principles, emphasizing the explicit historical allowance for non-Muslims, pluralism, and private free-will options under genuine Islamic law, highlighting how the faith's spiritual intentions are often corrupted when fused with state governance, political violence, or totalitarian empires. This leads to a broader systemic critique of extreme modern capitalism, exploring how billionaires like Jeff Bezos use theoretical loopholes and "shell game" rhetoric to redirect conversations about wealth responsibility toward government inefficiency. The hosts contrast standard corporate structures with sovereign wealth funds and perpetual endowments. arguing that the super-wealthy should leverage their influence to address systemic crises rather than hoarding their wealth.

This week we talk test waivers, optional essays, and how big-ticket charitable gifts shape scholarship funding.

It's Black Friday. The busiest shopping and dining day of the year, in a town known for being the Christmas city, packed with people in from out of town. Theresa had just hosted Thanksgiving — a houseful of family and friends — and all she wanted that afternoon was to finish cleaning up and sit down with a glass of wine. Not think about anything. Five minutes after she said it out loud, the phone rang.   "Teresa, it's raining in the basement. We don't know what to do. It's brown water."   She lived an hour away. So she drove. The whole way up wondering what she was about to walk into. A restaurant packed. A retail store packed. A city packed. And in the basement, water pouring out from under a door — brown — heading straight for the inventory.   By the time she got down there, one of the restaurant managers was already on the stairs. In a garbage bag. Kitchen gloves on. Holding a spatula. "T, we can do this. We got this. I Googled how to fix a pipe." It was a sewage pipe. And Theresa is a germaphobe.   Here's what most people would have done: run. Theresa did the opposite. She leaned in. She started assessing — first, second, third. Call the plumber. Call the remediation company on a holiday weekend. Save the inventory. Call the owner, who was in Mexico. And make sure nobody upstairs ever found out.   They didn't fix the pipe themselves, by the way. She threw her sneakers out and drove home barefoot in the snow. But the business never skipped a beat on the busiest day of the year — because the right things were already in place.   That flooded basement became one of the stories that taught Theresa what it actually takes to run a business in a crisis. It comes down to four things: presence, people, processes, and perseverance. The only thing we ever really control is the effort we put in and how we choose to face the moment when it breaks.   So here's the real question. It was never whether a crisis like this would happen — because it will. It's whether you have the presence, the people, the processes, and the perseverance to walk through it and come out the other side completely intact.   Key Takeaways: • Crisis isn't the question — it's coming no matter what. The real question is whether you have the leadership and systems in place to walk through it and get to the other side completely intact. • The only thing you truly control is the effort you put in and how you face the moment. You can run from the crisis, or you can lean into it. • Presence is leadership when it's hard. It's being the person they call because they know you'll figure it out — not the leader who panics and waits for someone else to handle it. • People matter most in the breakdown. The right team thinks critically and creatively under pressure, brings diversity of thinking, and keeps the business from bottlenecking on you. • Processes are the skeleton that holds everything upright. Real operational structure is what let the restaurant and store keep running on Black Friday while the basement flooded — business continuity in action. • Perseverance is radical resilience — the 6th gear. Cry for a moment, get frustrated for a moment, then shift into the strategic, critical, creative-solution brain and keep moving. • Good leaders bring calm into the chaos, not more chaos into the chaos. Intention beats running around like a chicken with its head cut off. • Every business owner has a version of this story — a pipe, a fridge going down, people quitting, COVID. What separates them is what they put in place before it hit.   Timestamps / Chapter Markers: 00:00   The one question — what crisis taught you how to run your business? 01:30   Why this story is in the upcoming book 02:21   Picture this: Black Friday, the Christmas city, the busiest weekend of the year 03:40   "It's raining in the basement.

Mike reiterates the importance of the fact that the Church does not abolish culture, but redeems and fulfills it. He also emphasizes that even though the Church welcomes liturgical diversity, there are still some things that are incompatible with the Faith and, therefore, unable to be incorporated into Catholic liturgy.

Clinical trials save lives but why does it often take years before a study can enroll its first patient? In this episode of The Lebanese Physicians Podcast, Dr. Khalil Diab sits down with oncologist, physician executive, author, and Chief Medical Officer of Ryght AI, Chadi Nabhan, to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming clinical trial site selection, feasibility assessments, and study activation. Dr. Nabhan explains why so many clinical trials struggle with enrollment, how traditional site selection methods often rely on relationships rather than data, and how AI-powered "digital site twins" may help identify the best-performing research centers worldwide. The discussion also explores the future of clinical research, reducing trial delays, increasing diversity in enrollment, and accelerating access to life-saving therapies. Topics discussed include: ✅ Why clinical trials often take 10–12 years to complete ✅ The hidden costs of poor site selection ✅ How AI-powered site twins work ✅ Clinical trial feasibility and site activation ✅ Enrollment prediction and trial performance ✅ Community practices vs academic medical centers ✅ Diversity, equity, and bias in AI-driven research ✅ The future of AI in clinical trials and drug development ✅ How faster trials could bring treatments to patients sooner Whether you're a physician, researcher, clinical trial professional, healthcare executive, or simply interested in the future of medicine, this conversation offers a fascinating look at how AI may reshape clinical research for years to come.

At 20 years old, newly arrived from Puerto Rico and trying to build a future in science, Benjamin Suarez Jimenez found himself sitting in front of two senior faculty members accused of plagiarism. He knew the material. He had done the work. His mistake came from failing to cite class notes during an exam because nobody had told him that was expected. In a matter of minutes, he watched what felt like his entire career flash before him.On this episode of Standard Deviation, host Oliver Bogler examines the hidden architecture of academic science through the experiences of Dr. Benjamin Suarez Jimenez, Assistant Professor at the University of Rochester and a neuroscientist studying PTSD, anxiety, trauma, and spatial cognition through virtual reality and video game environments.Benjamin traces his path from Puerto Rico to the mainland United States, through the NIH, Columbia University, and eventually to leading his own laboratory. Along the way, he encountered a series of barriers that had little to do with scientific ability and everything to do with access to unwritten rules. From academic gatekeeping to grant writing expectations, he learned that success in biomedical research often depends on knowledge that never appears in a textbook.Oliver explores how those invisible obstacles shape careers, influence research funding, and determine who gains access to opportunity. The conversation also examines the Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Program at the Life Science Editors Foundation, which pairs scientists from underrepresented backgrounds with experienced scientific editors. Through that mentorship, Benjamin transformed a critical grant proposal into a successful pilot award that helped launch an NIH R01 application.The discussion extends beyond one scientist's experience. Benjamin describes helping a former mentee navigate dissertation roadblocks that threatened her graduation, illustrating how institutional bureaucracy can delay careers and discourage talented researchers. Together, they explore the hidden administrative burden, cultural barriers, and bias that many scientists carry alongside their research, and what happens when someone who receives support turns around and opens the door for others.RELATED LINKSLife Science Editors FoundationBenjamin Suarez Jimenez LabDr. Benjamin Suarez JimenezBenjamin Suarez JimenezFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Northeast Mississippi Community College President Dr. Ricky G. Ford and Marketing and Public Relations Specialist Liz Calvery look at common misconceptions surrounding community colleges and set the record straight on what today's two-year institutions truly offer. Ford addresses the long-standing myth that community colleges are a “second option” for students who cannot attend a four-year university, emphasizing instead the intentional choice many students make for affordability, accessibility, and quality. He also challenges the perception that community college faculty are less qualified, noting that many instructors hold advanced degrees and bring extensive real-world and academic experience -- often comparable to, or exceeding, their counterparts at four-year institutions. The conversation highlights how Northeast delivers the same foundational courses found at universities at a fraction of the cost, without sacrificing academic rigor. Ford explains that while community colleges are often associated with career and technical education, they also play a critical role in preparing students for seamless transfer to four-year institutions, all while helping students enter the workforce with significantly less debt. Student life is another area where misconceptions persist. Ford discusses the wide array of opportunities available at Northeast, from campus events and intramural sports to clubs and student organizations -- sometimes rivaling or even surpassing offerings at larger schools. He also underscores one of the biggest advantages of the community college experience: smaller class sizes and a more personalized learning environment, which continue to attract students seeking stronger faculty engagement and support. Plus, get the latest updates on athletics, academics, workforce development, and all the incredible things happening at one of the nation's premier community colleges.

A @Christadelphians Video: [Inspiring] **Thought-Provoking & Insightful Video Summary** Join **We**, the Christadelphians, as we dive into the **outstanding** and often overlooked topic of **Bible translators and diversity** in this **revealing** expositional study. Have you ever wondered why there are so many versions of the Bible? This session unpacks how translation committees—and their diverse backgrounds—profoundly shape the Scriptures we read today. We explore the **wonderful** advantages of committee translations (guarding against bias, considering many opinions, catching errors) alongside the challenges (majority rules, less consistency). Using vivid examples from Jonah and Micah, we see how even a single Hebrew word like *olam* can be translated differently, affecting our understanding of prophecy and the Messiah. This is a **must-watch** for anyone seeking a richer, more informed approach to Bible reading.**Chapters** 00:00 - Introduction: Why translators and diversity matter 02:05 - The committee's influence: Majority rules and what gets lost 04:30 - A personal translation experiment (Jonah 1:1-4) 07:10 - Comparing the KJV, NIV, ESV, and NASB on Micah 5:2 10:30 - The Hebrew word *olam*: “Forever” or “ancient times”? 12:50 - How the NIV translators handled Micah 5:2 (and the minority view) 14:30 - Advantages of translation committees (4 key benefits) 16:00 - Disadvantages of committees (less consistency, less freedom) 17:30 - Conclusion & next session: Guarding against bias through diversity**Bible Verse Category**

I'm thrilled to welcome back a previous guest today! Her first appearance was in Episode 232 back in 2020. She helps us get clear on something that confuses many coaches: What does it mean to be “trauma-informed,” and why does it matter for every single one of our clients? We will uncover the neuroscience, practical moves, and the truth about what's happening in the nervous systems of the people we coach. We take a closer look at the difference between coaching and therapy, why there is always an overlap, and where the dividing line lies between big emotions, coaching, and therapy. Join us!Dr. Kemia Sarrah, “Dr. K”, is an internist, educator, physician, and leadership coach. Her subspecialty is a focus on leadership and coaching in and beyond severe burnout, toxic stress, and trauma. She is the founder and CEO of Lodestar, a professional coaching and consulting firm that utilizes a 360-degree trauma-aware container for coaching, coach training, leadership training, and Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion facilitation. Her medical degree and Master of Public Health are from the University of Utah School of Medicine, and she currently serves as an Adjunct Assistant Professor at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine in the Office of Equity, Diversity & Inclusion. Dr. K is a gifted storyteller and sought-after speaker with a deeply intuitive communication style, and her trademarked coaching paradigm has a lens focused on the secondary trauma that is part of daily life for high-achieving, hard-driving, and highly skilled professionals across various industries. Blending extensive experience with balance, humor, and endless empathy, Dr. K has helped countless physicians and professionals rediscover their professional pride, joy, and internal balance. She lives with her physician-husband on a small, working farm in Central Illinois, where they are raising four sons and too many farm critters to count.Show Highlights:The question at the crux of it all: How can coaching and trauma co-exist in the same work?All Lodestar programs are dual-accredited by the ICF and the ACCME, meeting the rigorous standards for both coaching and medical education.Understanding the overlaps and distinctions between coaching and therapyPositioning yourself as a coach who is trauma-informed and trauma-responsive, being a “skilled holder” of what the client brings into the conversationLaying the foundation of the coach/client relationship in the beginningTrauma: more than events in time, but exposure over time (“The dose makes the poison.”)Understanding stress (not always a bad thing!), its effects, like loneliness and uncertainty, and long-term stress exposureThe neuroscience of the “unsafe” brain: It cannot update its predictions, learns the wrong things, and cannot differentiate between predator threats and social threats.Recognizing the path forward with our clients: The stories our nervous system tells follow the state of our nervous system as a whole.“We are all the walking wounded. What you are experiencing is very real.”The key message from Dr. K: “Coaches are uniquely pre-set to do this exceedingly well. The beauty of this skillset is that it's rooted in the similarities of our nervous system; these skills are universally teachable, learnable, and applicable.”Resources:Connect with Dr. Kemia SarrafWebsite, Facebook, and SCS Episode 232Connect with MegExplore the STaR Coach Show Mentor Program.

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Brett Chestnut. Managing Director of Northwestern Mutual Goodwin, Wright Gwinnett. The conversation centers on Brett’s mission as a financial leader, his journey from engineering to financial planning, his commitment to mentoring, and his focus on expanding diversity in the financial services industry. Brett describes how he transitioned from engineering in 2015 to financial planning because he wanted to help people regain the ability to dream—not just survive. He discusses his work in recruiting diverse advisors, supporting career‑shifting professionals, mentoring, and educating people on foundational financial decision‑making. The interview also explores money mindsets, budgeting, the challenges of building wealth in communities of color, and the often‑overlooked emotional side of money. Brett emphasizes starting with the basics, not skipping steps (e.g., jumping straight to cryptocurrency), and building strong financial foundations. Rushion repeatedly highlights Brett as a powerful brand and role model, underscoring the importance of Black leadership in financial fields and the role of representation in increasing trust and access. Purpose of the Interview The interview’s purpose is to: 1. Introduce Brett Chestnut as a trusted financial leader Rushion aims to elevate Brett’s visibility as a Black managing director in financial services—an industry where representation has traditionally been limited. 2. Educate listeners on financial empowerment Brett provides practical, relatable guidance on budgeting, investing, career transitions, and developing financial discipline. 3. Highlight Northwestern Mutual’s diversity initiatives Brett explains how the company is intentionally investing in diverse advisors and underserved markets. 4. Inspire career‑based and financial self‑reflection He encourages people to examine their spending habits, consider new career paths, and align decisions with long-term goals. 5. Promote mentorship and community uplift Both Brett and Rushion stress the transformative power of mentorship and generational investment. Key Takeaways 1. Financial empowerment starts with awareness Brett urges everyone to analyze their last 2–3 months of spending to understand what their habits really prioritize. 2. You must “choose your hard” Saving and planning may be difficult now, but the alternative is harder later. Financial success requires discipline, not magic formulas. 3. Wealth building is emotional as much as logical Money connects to family, relationships, self‑worth, stress, and confidence. Advisors must understand clients emotionally, not just mathematically—especially women and diverse communities. 4. Don’t skip steps (especially with investing and crypto) Many want to “get rich fast,” but Brett warns that skipping foundational steps (budgeting, savings, retirement planning) leads to confusion and poor decisions. 5. Mentorship works only with real relationship True mentorship requires understanding someone’s full life story, not just giving advice. 6. Representation matters in financial services Northwestern Mutual is investing heavily in diverse advisors not just for optics, but because entire markets have been historically underserved. 7. Closing the wealth gap requires generational strategy One generation must be willing to be selfless, disciplined, and intentional with assets to move future generations forward. 8. Brett sees his work as multiplying impact By developing new advisors and helping create “15 millionaires,” he hopes to create compounding community uplift. Notable Quotes On financial empowerment “I want people to dream again. We’re not dreaming no more—we’re living because of obligation.” “When we’re born we look like our parents, but when we die, we look like our decisions.” On career purpose “I help people who are successful but career‑disturbed. They want more.” On money habits “Look at your last three months of spending. Your money tells you what your real priorities are.” On investing and crypto “People want to skip steps… going from no savings straight to crypto.” “If you don’t understand it, maybe it’s not time for you to invest in it.” On mentorship “To give someone feedback without relationship is harassment.” “Let me hear your story… mentorship starts with knowing the inner person.” On diversity and empowerment “Their growth strategy is diversity… whole markets haven’t even been called on yet.” On community and identity “We’re special… if we regain that confidence and approach the marketplace with courage, everything changes.” On wealth-building reality “You have to choose your hard. Hard now or hard later.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Diversity is our strength, right? Turns out no, it isn't. While foreigners are committing crimes and poisoning our culture, the West is looking the other way and making excuses. Not all cultures are equal. Case in point: an 18-year-old British man was stabbed and bled to death in police custody. But, the non-white attacker needs to be treated differently because he is a non-white. We delve into the case of Henry Nowak. Someone wants to talk about AI. It's Gerald.
