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.

Every pregnant person deserves the information—and support—they need to make truly informed decisions about labor induction. In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker talks with Dr. Ann Peralta and Kari Radoff, CNM, co-creators of Partner to Decide, a nonprofit initiative improving decision-making in perinatal care. They discuss the creation of their free, multilingual decision aid that supports families in understanding their options around routine induction of labor—and empowers them to advocate for their values, preferences, and autonomy.   Ann shares how her own birth experience, shaped by access to education and privilege, sparked the creation of the tool. Kari offers insight into how the decision aid has changed conversations in clinical settings—bringing clarity, reducing bias, and fostering truly shared decision-making. Together, they illuminate how access to balanced information can reduce anxiety, improve trust, and shift the culture of perinatal care.   (03:02) What Is a Decision Aid and Why It Matters (07:12) Ann's Birth Story and the Origins of Partner to Decide (11:09) Gaps in Shared Decision-Making from a Provider's Perspective (14:24) Personal Values, Intuition, and Cultural Differences (18:19) Designing the Decision Aid with Equity and Accessibility (23:49) The Power of Absolute vs. Relative Risk in Birth Conversations (25:01) Surprising Patient Feedback: From Access to Empowerment (30:31) Provider Reflections and Challenging Bias (36:11) Why “Routine” Induction Language Matters (43:59) How to Respond to Pressure or Coercion Around Induction (46:16) How to Access the Free Decision Aid and Support New Tools   Resources Access the free Induction of Labor Decision Aid in seven languages: www.inductiondecisionaid.org Learn more about the nonprofit: www.partnertodecide.org For more information about Evidence Based Birth® and a crash course on evidence based care, visit www.ebbirth.com.

Múlt héten Panyi Szabolcs és Szőke Dániel különleges dokumentumról írt cikket: az Állami Számvevőszék jelentéstervezetéhez jutottak hozzá. Ebből az derült ki, hogy a Magyar Nemzeti Bank egy alapítványától rengeteg pénz folyt el rossz döntések miatt. Ugyanakkor Matolcsy György volt jegybankelnök és főleg fiának, Ádámnak a környezete nem járt rosszul. Azóta az ÁSZ nyilvánosságra hozta a jelentését, és a megjelent anyag is vet fel kérdéseket. Például azt, hogy miért maradt ki ebből a Mészáros Lőrinc résztulajdonában lévő Magyar Bankholding megemlítése. Erről a jelentésről beszélgettünk a cikk két szerzőjével, Panyi Szabolccsal és Szőke Dániellel.

Kultúrrész! Három filmet néztünk meg, egy testhorrort, egy erotikus (ál)thrillert meg egy romantikus vígjátékot, amikben az a közös, hogy a főszereplő színésznő már nem babapopsi kinézetű, és a történetek eköré a Hollywoodban kevéssé népszerű téma köré szerveződnek. Persze mindegyik a maga módján. A nagy kérdés, hogy ez jó-e nekünk, nőknek, bármilyen életkorban is vagyunk éppen. BŐVEBBEN: 00:01:12 - Jó dolog öregedni? 00:02:02 - Nóra elöregedett, Zsuzsi simán balfasz. Dóri meg pofátlanul fiatal. 00:05:02 - Mikortól izgi az Airfryer? 00:06:47 - Mi köze A szernek, a Jókislánynak és a Bridget Jones legújabb részének egymáshoz? Hát persze, hogy az öregedés! 00:14:47 - Mennyire gyomorkímélő mozi A szer? 00:21:22 - Nem biztos, hogy fel tudunk állni a felvétel után (spoiler: sikerült). Öregszünk mi is, de bízunk benne, hogy 50 évesen nem lesz vége az életnek. 00:22:22 - Mi is az a retinol? És mennyit költünk rá? 00:26:15 - Itt az ideje a szexről beszélni. 00:28:14 - Ha erotikus thrillerre vágysz, akkor nem a Babygirl (Jókislány) a te mozid. 00:36:37 - Van joga egy 50-es nőnek kísérletezni a szexben? 00:43:15 - A szex még akkor is lehet ciki, ha Nicole Kidman vagy. 00:45:22 - Zsuzsi bevallja, hogy nem szereti a vígjátékokat… de Nóra szerint a Bridget Jones-on is lehet sírni, sőt! 00:51:11 - Ez a Bridget Jones már csak nyomokban hozza azt, amit várunk tőle. Meg egy csomó érdekes témát nem bontanak ki a filmben… 00:55:07 - Ami a leginkább életszagú volt a filmben, az a SZŐRANYÁK ábrázolása. 00:59:40 - Ebből a filmből még azt is megtudhatjuk, hogy mit nem oké hallani egy baráti beszélgetésben vagy a nőgyógyászunknál. 01:01:51 - Egy nő addig érdekes, amíg termékeny. A filmekben is. 01:09:15 - Végre megtudhatjuk, hogy Nóra szerint mi kell a tökéletes karácsonyhoz! Fontos linkek az adáshoz: Nicole Kidman disznót vág Grafikon: Oscar-győztes nők és férfiak életkora Amerikában van külön intézet, ami a nők korával foglalkozik, dedikáltan A filmekben megjelenő nők korával foglalkozó tanulmány És csak hogy lássuk, mi a helyzet idehaza: korfa (kimutatás a magyar filmekben szereplő nők reprezentativitásáról - furcsa mód - nincs) Ezt írtuk a Jókislányról, ezt pedig a Bridget Jones negyedik részéről.

01:35 Előbb van az akció, utána nézik meg, mi volt a hatása. Move fast, break things. Az Uber sem foglalkozott azzal, hogy törvényeket sért. Fake it, till you make it. 04:35 Nincs mesterterv. Valami irányvonal van Trump fejében talán. A MAGA mozgalom négy ága. 07:20 A technolibertáriusok Muskkal az élen le akarják építeni az államot, és digitális megoldásokkal helyettesíteni, amit lehet. Az AI megold mindent. 12:20 Trump már negyven éve azt gondolja, hogy Amerikán csak nyerészkednek a szövetségesei. 17:00 Ilyen eszközökkel csak rombolni lehet. Ebből egyensúlyi helyzet, stabil rendszer nem lesz. A globalizáció törékeny, és össze is fogják törni. 19:30 Az új világban kisebb lesz a jólét, az erősebbek többet A kisebb országoknak kevesebb lapot osztanak. 21:00 Túléli-e a NATO? Az oroszok tesztelik majd, működik-e még az ötös cikkely. 24:20 Merz talán már úgy kalkulál, hogy Trump nem tartaná az ötös cikkelyt. Honnan lesz pénz európai védelmi rendszerre? 27:00 Az amerikai szó egyre súlytalanabb. 29:00 Csak az európai légvédelmi rendszer 500 milliárd euróba kerülne. 31:25 Jelenleg egyetlen európai hadsereg képes megállítani az oroszokat: az ukrán. Magyarország védelmét Ukrajna biztosítja. 33:30 Az európai fegyverkezési program berúgná a gazdasági konjunktúrát. 39:20 Az oroszok szerint nekik joguk van a mi sorsunkba beleszólni. 40:30 Az is csak illúzió, hogy Trump mindig valami nagyon ravasz terv alapján tárgyal. Sokszor bénázik. 42:00 Ennek az ember a fejében 1987 óta ez a lemez forog. 43:10 JD Vance: Az nem demokrácia, ahol nem lehet uszítani. 45:20 Eddig Kína a legnagyobb nyertes. 47:30 Az amerikaiak iránti bizalom megrendült, európai fejekben újra megfordulhat, hogy Kínával kéne kooperálni. A spanyolok már föl is vetették. 50:00 Ukrajna után mennyire kell attól félni, hogy eladják Tajvant? 52:00 Az USA egyértelműen a plutokratikus irányba indult, Elon Musk vezetésével. 53:15 Tényleg azt gondoljuk, hogy Trump tudta, mi az az USAID, mielőtt Musk kinyírta? 54:00 Trump nem tisztel tekintélyt, szabályt, törvény, tudást. A felkészítő anyagokat sem olvassa el. 57:30 Ebből nem lesz autokrácia. 59:30 Lehet nekünk ebből bármi jó? Miért tette ilyen fontosnak Orbán Viktor a magyar közvélemény számára Trump győzelmét? 61:00 Amerika a harmadik legnagyob exportpiacunk. A padlón lévő magyar iparba még belerúg az amerikai vám. 64:00 Egyetlen dolgot kaphat Trumptól: szabadabb kezet a kritikus hangok elhallgattatására. 68:00 A Trump-féle plutokrácia csak mélyíti a válságot. 69:00 Autokratikus válasz az elmagányosodásra: sérelemközösség. Haragudni valakikre. 71:00 Feladat: az európai életmód megmentése. Itt ne lehessen uszítani. Ne lehessen minden tech cégnek hozzáférése minden adathoz. 72:00 A plutokratikus rend szükségszerűen átmeneti. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this very important episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker is taking a look at the updated evidence on Vitamin K for newborns. Vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) is a rare but serious condition that can lead to life-threatening complications in infants. Dr. Dekker breaks down what Vitamin K is, why newborns are at risk for VKDB, and the different supplementation options available—including the Vitamin K shot and oral drops. This episode also tackles myths and misinformation surrounding Vitamin K, including concerns about safety, the so-called “gentle birth” exemption, and the controversial "black box warning."

Welcome back to the Heart of the Dominion and season 2 of my Ironsworn: Sundered Isles series.    After a brief conversation with Quon, the clockwork contact for the Ebb, about freeing an important prisoner in Deepwater Harbor's dungeons, Cassidy rushes to fulfill her iron vow to Church of the Enduring Servant's Inquisitor Azriel Stirling to protect the crew of the Enduring Blade as they claim it for resources. However, when the Revenant arrives before any others, Cassidy investigates the sky island and experiences a horrible prophecy in the mists... One that quickly comes true as the Bloodsworn descend on the sky island.   Learn more about Ironsworn here. ----more----   If you haven't but you'd like to, get yourself some stickers or give me some feedback by filling out my poll here.   I made a Ko-Fi if you feel absurdly generous and want to help cover podcast hosting costs & all the upkeep.

2003-at írtunk, amikor Hujber Ferenc, az akkor már nagyon sikeres színész bejelentette: örökre elhagyja Magyarországot és Ausztráliában próbál szerencsét, pontosabban végleg ott kíván letelepedni. Hujber Ferenc azért döntött így, mert nem volt elégedett itthon elért sikereivel, ugyanakkor zavarta a rivaldafény. "Feri nem bírta elviselni, hogy itthon egy mókuskerékben él, levegőre vágyott" - mesélte egy lapnak akkoriban a pár egyik közeli barátja. Aztán Ausztráliából nem lett semmi, a színész csak Londonig jutott, és az azóta eltelt 22 év során pedig karrierje hullámvölgyei és a személyes küzdelmei során eljutott odáig, hogy szakember segítségével újjáépítette magát. Ebből a perspektíváktól érdekes ez a 2003-ban készült beszélgetés, amely az akkor 29 éves Hujber Ferenccel készült.Hogyan támogathatja a munkánkat? - Legújabban már a Donably felületen is támogathat bennünket, itt ÁFA-mentesen segítheti munkavégzésünket: https://www.donably.com/friderikusz-podcast - De lehet a patronálónk a Patreon-on keresztül is, mert a támogatása mértékétől függően egyre több előnyhöz juthat: https://www.patreon.com/FriderikuszPodcast - Egyszerű banki átutalással is elismerheti munkavégzésünk minőségét.

In today's episode, we're revisiting an inspiring birth story featuring Emily Chandler and Taylor Washburn, graduates of the Evidence Based Birth® Childbirth Class. They share their journey of navigating an informed and empowered hospital birth experience, along with the challenges they faced during an extended hospital stay for their newborn's jaundice diagnosis.   Emily, a marine scientist, and Taylor, a teacher and rowing coach in the Boston area, enjoy an active lifestyle filled with hiking, biking, and rowing. While preparing for parenthood, Emily immersed herself in learning about pregnancy, birth, and the state of maternity care in the U.S. This journey led them to take the EBB Childbirth Class with instructor Chanté Perryman, where they gained valuable knowledge and advocacy skills.   Emily and Taylor share how the EBB Childbirth Class empowered them to make informed decisions about their birth plan—including Taylor's memorable experience of “catching” their baby. They also highlight the importance of the advocacy skills they learned, which helped them effectively communicate with healthcare providers and navigate unexpected challenges, such as breastfeeding difficulties and securing the right support during their baby's jaundice treatment.   Be sure to listen all the way to the end of the episode for an exciting update from our guests!   Content Note: This episode covers topics such as extended hospital stays, breastfeeding challenges, jaundice testing and treatment, and the racial disparities affecting Black and Brown infants with jaundice.
