Only 35% of kids testing on grade level is not a headline, it's a flashing warning light. I sit down with education advocate and Substack writer Shaka Mitchell to ask the uncomfortable question behind the data: if students are just as capable as ever, why are outcomes so uneven and, in some places, outright collapsing? We get specific about what the numbers mean for families, communities, and the future of the American dream, and we look at why “systemic failure” often traces back to incentives, bureaucracy, and a lack of flexibility. From there, we dig into school choice, educational freedom, and the idea that funding should follow the student rather than automatically flowing to buildings. Shaka explains how education savings accounts can support a more customizable education model, why ZIP code zoning can function as “school choice by real estate,” and how a more student-centered approach could look a lot like the intent behind IEPs, but applied far more broadly. We also talk about international comparisons like PISA, the erosion of trust in institutions, and practical moves districts could make immediately, including getting smartphones out of the school day to restore attention and focus. Then we shift gears to something surprisingly hopeful: music. Shaka shares his Come Together Music Project and why shared songs and shared experiences can build relationships, soften polarization, and remind us we still have common ground. We close with a look at the coming Education Freedom Tax Credit and why it could matter for millions of kids across public school, private school, charter school, and homeschooling.

Our girl Sarah was a good citizen and performed her civic duty of jury duty, so we hear about all the insanity, nonsense, and protocol she went through just to perform the thankless task of justice. Plus, she had a post-birthday snowboarding experience with a bunch of ladies, and she is riding the high of powder playtime. We hear why friction gets a bad rap when it's actually important to survival. We discuss a man who thought he had lung cancer, but really he had inhaled an everyday household item. We learn which men Sarah counts as "safe men" even though she doesn't want them romantically. Plus, we learn about "facial conformity" and how if an actor doesn't get botox or plastic surgery they're perceived as more talented.Join Susie and Sarah for The Brain Candy Podcast's 1000th episode celebration: https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/brain-candy-1000th-episode-event/00:00 - Sarah's First-Hand Account of the Jury Duty Process20:00 - Dismissal and Reflection on the Flawed Jury System23:37 - Finding Joy and Community at an All-Women's Snowboarding Event28:52 - Unpacking the Foundational Role of Friction in Life and Technology33:47 - The Wild Story of a Man Who Inhaled a Toy at Age 742:06 - Discussing Competence and Protection in the "Safe Man" Archetype46:59 - Facial Conformity in Hollywood and the Power of Empathy56:28 - Upcoming Events, Partner Codes, and Patreon ContentBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Head to https://www.brodo.com/CANDY for 20% off your first subscription order and use code CANDY for an additional $10 off.Get 15% off OneSkin with the code BRAINCANDY at https://www.oneskin.co/BRAINCANDY #oneskinpodSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Why Me?: The Brain on Tilt by Dr David Arthur Kent https://www.amazon.com/Why-Me-David-Arthur-Kent/dp/B0FZSF5PW4 Davidkentauthor.com This book provides a comprehensive overview of mental illness, emphasizing that these conditions are biological and medical in nature, not signs of weakness or moral failings. It focuses heavily on evidence-based treatment, detailing how recovery is possible for conditions ranging from depression and OCD to bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, often through a combination of medication, psychotherapy (such as CBT, DBT, and ERP), and innovative biological interventions like TMS and ECT. A critical theme is the essential role of family support and education in improving outcomes and reducing relapse rates, alongside the need to combat stigma which remains a major barrier to seeking timely and effective help. The book illustrates these concepts through detailed case studies of individuals managing chronic illnesses successfully, redefining recovery as functional improvement rather than chasing a complete cure. About the author Board-certified psychiatrist with 30+ years of clinical expertise in mental health treatment and neuropsychiatry. Founder and owner of NuMe TMS Clinics in Idaho, specializing in advanced brain stimulation therapies (TMS, Deep TMS, ECT) for treatment-resistant mental illness. Education & Research Background: Medical degree: University of Iowa School of Medicine Psychiatric residency: University of Iowa (1986-1990) Conducted influential research on conversion disorders and functional neurological conditions Contributed to multi-site clinical studies on Deep TMS for OCD Clinical Philosophy: Evidence-based medicine combined with compassionate, patient-centered care. Mental illness is a treatable medical condition—not a character flaw. Recovery is possible. Mission: Reduce mental health stigma through education, advance access to innovative treatments, and help people understand that proper psychiatric care offers genuine hope for meaningful recovery.

Wonder what your child's doodles mean?Dr. Josephine Deguara joins me to discuss how children often use drawing as an early language to express thoughts and emotions before they can fully use words. We talk about how adults should avoid interpreting drawings themselves and instead ask open-ended questions to understand the child's meaning. When children are given time, materials, and attentive listeners, drawing helps them process feelings, tell stories, and explore their identity.Prof Josephine Deguara is an Associate Professor and researcher in the Department of Early Childhood and Primary Education at the University of Malta. Her work focuses on early childhood pedagogy, policy, and practice, with a particular interest in how children express their thinking and experiences through drawing. She uses children's drawings as a way of understanding identity, belonging, play, and children's funds of knowledge through participatory, rights-based research approaches.

The state of Wisconsin has a constitutional obligation to provide equal opportunity for a sound basic education and adequate and reasonably uniform funding of our public schools. But for decades, the state hasn't provided sufficient funds to school districts or distributed those funds fairly. That's why a group of five school districts have filed a lawsuit against the Wisconsin legislature–the topic of our show today.  Guest host Bert Zipperer is in conversation with Jeff Mandell, Julie Underwood, and Heather DuBois Bourenane to break down the reasons for the lawsuit and how the state can better serve its 421 school districts.  Shortfalls in state funding have left many school districts using ballot referenda to increase their spending limits. Mandell points out that referendums were once used for capital expenses but now are increasingly applied to operational costs. He says this isn't how the system is designed to work. Bourenane calls it a “disequalizing way to fund public education,” that further divides the “haves from the have nots.”  But you can't talk about the school finance system without talking about vouchers, “because they suck so much money out of the landscape,” says Underwood. Mandell clarifies the lawsuit isn't against voucher schools, but legislators need to reckon with the reality that the state is now funding voucher/independent schools to the tune of over $700 million a year. Some municipalities, like Green Bay and Eau Claire, have started to publish how much of residents’ property taxes go to voucher schools.  Underwood says public education is at the heart of our democracy, and we need adequately-funded public schools to create an informed citizenry who can participate in public debate.  Jeff Mandell is a co-founder of and General Counsel at Law Forward, a nonprofit law firm dedicated to protecting and strengthening democracy in Wisconsin. Jeff has nearly twenty years of experience in complex litigation and appellate advocacy, and is widely recognized as one of Wisconsin's leading experts in constitutional litigation and election law. Julie Underwood has focused her career on issues involving public school law and policy, as General Counsel for the National School Board Association and former Dean of the School of Education at UW-Madison. Heather DuBois Bourenane is the Executive Director of the Wisconsin Public Education Network, a public education advocacy group that shares resources, ideas, and actions that support the public schools at the heart of our communities. Their annual Summer Summit will be held this year in Superior, Wisconsin. Featured image of a child exploring library bookshelves via Rawpixel. Did you enjoy this story?

In this episode, Saul is joined by Mariya Filipova, CEO at Proclaim, a renowned healthcare executive, investor, and now Course Director at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. The conversation centers on the concept of Care Convergence, a vital shift in healthcare delivery that moves away from traditional, siloed treatment toward a "whole-person" approach.  Mariya explains that the current healthcare system is often hampered by quarterly financial cycles and fragmented clinician training, which fail to account for the interconnected nature of the human body. She emphasizes that true systemic change begins with education, leading her to co-design a first-of-its-kind program at Harvard. This curriculum is specifically built to connect clinicians and innovators with the business, technology, and cross-disciplinary skills necessary to lead the next generation of integrated care delivery. Tune in to discover how bridging the gap between clinical practice and business strategy can dismantle healthcare silos and finally put the whole patient at the center of the system.

A Quick Notes to Listeners: Before this week’s episode, Will Parker and Jen Schwanke take some time to answer a listener question. This week’s question is: How do I manage parents (without losing my patience) who come to conversations with the assumption that educators cannot be trusted? Listen in to hear their response! Meet John Spencer: Dr. John Spencer is a former middle school teacher and current college professor who is passionate about seeing students reach their creative potential. He is the author of the bestselling books Launch, Empower, and Vintage Innovation, and The A.I. Roadmap. In 2013, he spoke at the White House, sharing a vision for how to empower students to be future-ready through deeper learning and creativity. In this episode of Principal Matters, Dr. Jen Schwanke and Dr. John Spencer engage in a fascinating, wide-ranging conversation that touches on nearly every critical aspect of modern education. While anchored in the core practices of effective teaching and leadership, their discussion also dives deep into a rich array of interconnected topics. They explore the nuances of AI in schools—from its impact on academic integrity and educational technology to its potential to unlock student agency and creativity. The conversation also weaves in the essential human elements of education, examining the roles of emotional intelligence, practical teacher training, and meaningful professional development. This episode is guaranteed to be entertaining and insightful, but more than anything, it will be inspiring. To begin, Dr. Spencer details his compelling professional journey, tracing his path from a dedicated middle school teacher to his current multifaceted roles as an educational consultant, keynote speaker, accomplished author, and university professor. Drawing from his extensive experience teaching and supporting preservice teachers, John discusses the critical skills that new educators must possess to be successful. He offers invaluable, practical insights specifically tailored for principals and school leaders who are responsible for mentoring and guiding these new members of the profession. From there, Jen and John dive deep into the prevalent misconceptions surrounding artificial intelligence in education. They specifically address the inherent risks and flawed logic that come with an over-emphasis on trying to “catch” students who might be “cheating” with AI tools. Instead of a punitive approach, John stresses the fundamental importance of fostering creativity and enhancing student agency. He persuasively argues that AI should be viewed as a powerful tool that can assist with, and even amplify, both of these critical educational goals. To that end, he emphasizes the urgent need for educators to proactively adapt to new and emerging technologies. However, he cautions that this adaptation must be balanced with a steadfast commitment to maintaining emotional intelligence and intentionally fostering genuine joy within the classroom environment. The wide-ranging conversation also touches on the broader challenges that modern educators face today, while concluding on a hopeful note about the profound promise of innovation in the teaching profession.

Are you doing everything you were trained to do and still feeling stuck? The problem might not be you. It might be the playbook. In this episode, I'm naming the three forces that have converged to make school leadership harder than it's ever been: widening academic gaps that didn't go away when the headlines did, community instability that walks through your front door every morning with your kids, and financial resources that are shrinking just when you need them most. Then I'm going to show you why the traditional leadership playbook, even when you execute it beautifully, was never designed for a moment like this one.

Right now, government schools are using AI and so-called “educational” apps to collect data on children. The scheme is even reaching into the realm of mental health, gathering data on children’s emotional behavior, explains Katie Allen, a policy advisor for Truth In Education, on this episode of The New American’s Conversations That Matter with Alex ...

This is Part 4. We want to thank Free Press for making this material available and thank D'Souza for writing it. Thank you, Dinesh. We continue our discussion of Dinesh D'Souza's Illiberal Education: The Politics of Race and Sex on Campus (NY, NY: Free Press, 1991) starting chapter 2, called "More Equal Than Others: Admissions Policy at Berkeley," getting through to page 32 at the top. We do a fair use and a transformative reading of a book I encountered in high screwel at Chatfield High Screwel in Jefferson County, Littleton, Colorado in 1991. I wrote an article about it in my high screwel newspaper, the Chatfield Charter. This is in a series of TRP backstory episodes on The Republican Professor podcast. I believe I originally used my paper route money to buy the book myself at Summit Ministries in Summer 1991 in Manitou Springs, Colorado. Thanks to my Grandpa Mather for sending me those 4 years. The book is "Illiberal Education: The Politics of Race and Sex on Campus" (NY, New York: Free Press, 1991) by a very young Dinesh D'Souza. We want to encourage you to buy the book either used or new. Throw some money at the publisher for the book to reward them for publishing good books. Follow D'Souza on social media and check out his films as well as his books. Get the book and follow along.

In this powerful episode of What Are You Made Of?, host Mike “C-Roc” sits down with visionary educator and MindSoil strategist Kohila Sivas, creator of the groundbreaking Readiness OS™—a soul-rooted, science-aligned framework designed to transform how people learn, think, and grow.Kohila shares her remarkable journey from surviving civil war in Sri Lanka and immigrating to Canada as a young child, to facing isolation, language barriers, and a life-altering moment at age 12 that forced her to confront the power of her own mind. Through those experiences, she discovered a life-changing insight: our brains create stories, but we are not our thoughts—and learning how to question those narratives can completely reshape our lives.Kohila reflects on how muting herself for years due to language struggles, the encouragement of a teacher who believed in her, and her deep connection with mathematics helped rebuild her confidence and curiosity. What began as tutoring eventually evolved into transformational coaching, where she focused not on grades but on rewiring how students think, learn, and see themselves. Encouraged by her husband to expand her impact, Kohila went on to develop Readiness OS™ and license her methodology to educators around the world. In this inspiring conversation, she and C-Roc explore the power of mindset, questioning the stories our brains tell us, and how turning adversity into purpose can lead to profound personal and educational transformation.Website: https://www.wholisticsuccesscodes.com/Social Media Links/Handles:https://www.facebook.com/kohilacoach/https://www.linkedin.com/m/in/kohila-sivas-2502297a/https://www.instagram.com/kohila_sivashttps://www.facebook.com/WholisticSuccessCodes/https://www.youtube.com/@WholisticSuccessCodes

Ever feel like you're running a miniature public school in your living room? You're overwhelmed—not because you're doing too little, but because you're trying to do too much using the wrong model.Most homeschool moms recreate the factory model education system they walked away from. They don't mean to, but they do. This system teaches kids what to think, not how to think. It, also, turns them into followers, not leaders. But what if doing LESS actually produced stronger learners?In this episode:✅The 3-question filter to eliminate busy work and focus on what actually matters✅ONE simple practice to start this week to stop overwhelm✅75 reasons you're totally overwhelmed, homeschool mom✅How factory model education creates followers for the Industrial Revolution—not thinkers✅Why depth beats breadth✅How great leaders like Edison and Lincoln learned differentlyReady to break free from factory model education? Grab the free 3-day video course "How to Simplify Your Homeschool" with daily emails, short videos, and printables to help you put it into practice!Resources Mentioned: Free Course: How to Simplify Your HomeschoolCourse: Raising Leaders, Not Followers (17 tips on encouraging a love of learning) Show Notes:Have you ever looked at your homeschool plan and felt like you were running a miniature public school in your living room? Many homeschool moms feel overwhelmed — not because they're doing too little, but because they are trying to do too much and follow the wrong model.The real issue is that, unintentionally, we recreate the system we walked away from. Think about it: three kids, times five lessons a day, times five days a week — that's 75 lesson plans a week. No wonder you're overwhelmed.Most homeschool moms were trained on the factory school model of education. They all come in to first grade, they do all the same things, and they go down the factory line all the way to 12th grade. Everything the same. Tested the same. It's like a factory.This model teaches us that learning must include multiple-choice tests, many subjects a day, and textbooks for everything. We've only had textbooks in the last hundred years — before that, they used real books. This model teaches us that worksheets, grading, and constant assessment is what education is. And even when we leave that school system, subconsciously we recreate it because that's all we know.All that system does is teach your kids what to think, not how to think. Don't you want your kids to know how to think and not just be a follower? That system creates followers — many worker bees. It was built because of the industrial revolution and they needed a lot of workers. So they built an education system that would produce followers.What Thomas Edison's Mom Knew That We ForgetThomas Edison struggled in traditional school. His teacher called him addled. His mother removed him from school and homeschooled him in the 1850s — we're talking almost 175 years ago. How did she homeschool him? Through reading, through curiosity, and through experimentation.That set up Edison to be a leader. He developed the light bulb, but because of curiosity and experimentation and strong character, he said, "I didn't fail a thousand times. I found 10,000 ways to not make a light bulb." He kept experimenting. He kept being curious to figure out an answer.He later credited his mother with giving him the freedom to explore ideas that led to over 1,000 patents — not just the light bulb, a thousand patents. One devoted parent focusing on curiosity can outperform an entire public school system.Why Doing Less Actually Produces Stronger LearnersI think it's not doing less education — it's doing less traditional conveyor belt education and doing more leadership education. Freedom education that gives your kids the freedom in life to pursue whatever they are called to do.One big factor is depth. Depth creates real learning. The brain builds strong connections when ideas are explored deeply rather than just skimmed quickly. Abraham Lincoln had less than one year of formal education. He educated himself primarily through reading a small number of great books repeatedly — what we would call classics.Some of you hear "classics" and you go, "Oh, boring." Well, I consider Anne of Green Gables and Little House on the Prairie a classic. I consider The Hobbit a classic. Don't think just because it says classic, it's old and dusty.I remember when my girls were going to read the Iliad. It comes in and it's that thick. I told myself I was reading it with them — if they're in high school and they can understand it, surely as an adult I can read and understand it. It was an awesome book. These books shaped Abraham Lincoln into a great leader. He didn't study a whole bunch of different subjects. He studied fewer ideas and he really dove deeply into them.The Three Question Filter: Cut the Busy WorkBefore you add anything to your homeschool, ask yourself three questions. Does this help my child love learning and think deeply? Does this strengthen their character or their wisdom? Does this move them toward becoming an independent learner with lifetime learning tools?If you say no to one of these, it may just be busy work. And if it's busy work, get rid of it. You can see more learning taking place in 20 minutes than an hour or two of worksheets.I am not asking you to add something to your homeschool. Whatever your kids are already doing, get rid of all the extra stuff if you're overwhelmed and let's just focus on three things this week. Make sure they're reading, make sure they're using thinking skills, and make sure they're growing in their character.What to Do Today: Go Deep Instead of WideAsk yourself this question: if my child mastered three things this week, what would they be? Write them down. If you're driving, say them out loud. What three things could each child master this week? That's what you want to dive deep into.Let your child choose one subject this week — something they are going to go deeper in instead of just passing through and checking off a checklist like public school. If you follow their interest instead of yours, this encourages a love of learning. Let them make a choice of something they're interested in and dive deep into it.Then let them read a short passage about it. Ask them what they learned. What was their favorite part? Have the discussion. For younger kids, start with narration — just let them tell back what they learned. For older kids, ask a question that starts with how or why. How and why questions will get them to start thinking.Reading will produce a love of learning if you can find the right books. Believe me, I had to work hard for one of my children. My son Hunter didn't like to read. I was constantly on the lookout for a good quality book, and it took time and effort on my part. But he's an avid reader now. All of my kids love to read now.What Homeschooling Is Really AboutWhen you simplify your homeschool and you're not trying to do it all, you create space that actually matters — space for a love of learning, for thinking and discussion, for character building, and for leadership development. This is what homeschooling is about for me. I wanted my kids to grow in all four of these areas.Free Resource: How to Simplify Your HomeschoolIf you're overwhelmed and need to simplify, I have a free 3-day video course called How to Simplify Your Homeschool. It comes each day in an email with a short 3 to 5 minute video and a printable of how you could put that into practice.I've had moms say how much this has helped them get off that conveyor belt and start to simplify their homeschool.

1. Rising Support for Socialism A Fox News survey shows 38% of voters believe moving toward socialism would be a good thing, the highest level recorded. Despite that, 61% still view socialism negatively. 2. Declining Confidence in Capitalism Voters are split on whether capitalism is working: 50% say capitalism works well 49% say it works poorly This divide is presented as a driver of interest in socialist ideas. 3. Narrative on Left-Leaning Politics Left‑leaning politicians (e.g., AOC) convince voters that: America is fundamentally flawed, Capitalism disadvantages them, And inequality is due to systemic injustice, not personal choices. 4. Personal Responsibility vs. System Blame A major theme is that individual work ethic determines success. The document argues that some people blame “the system” instead of acknowledging personal decisions like: poor work habits, substance abuse, lack of effort, or educational decisions. 5. Political Strategy and Voter Dependency The author claims the Democratic Party maintains power by: Encouraging reliance on government benefits, Using “free stuff” to secure votes, Keeping people in poverty cycles instead of enabling upward mobility. 6. Trump’s Threat to the Democratic Base The text argues Democrats targeted Trump politically because: He was reducing minority unemployment to record lows, Potentially shifting traditional Democratic voting blocs, COVID‑19 disrupted that progress and altered political dynamics. 7. Education as a Control Mechanism: Democratic-led cities have failing school systems, Poor education ensures future dependency on government, Empowered, well‑educated children are more likely to become politically independent. 8. Government Programs as Leverage Policies such as Obamacare are described as tools for political control by making voters fear losing essential services.

In this episode of Essential Ingredients, Justine Reichman speaks with Rodrigo Vargas, founder of American Vinegar Works. They explore the journey of creating high-quality craft vinegars, the importance of using first quality alcohol, and the culinary applications of vinegar. Vargas emphasizes the need for consumer awareness regarding food quality and the challenges faced by small businesses in the food industry. The conversation highlights the significance of education in making informed food choices and the misconceptions prevalent in the market.   Takeaways American Vinegar Works aims to be the premium choice for vinegar. Vinegar starts with alcohol and reflects its underlying flavors. Quality vinegar should have a nuanced flavor profile, not just acidity. Using first quality alcohol is crucial for making high-quality vinegar. Many commercial vinegars are made from surplus or low-quality alcohol. Vinegar can enhance dishes and should be used creatively in cooking. Consumers should be aware of the marketing tactics in the food industry. Small businesses face significant challenges in accessing markets. Education about food quality is essential for consumers. Curiosity about food can lead to better choices and healthier eating.   Sound bites "Vinegar is like that unsung hero in the kitchen." "A little goes a long way."

In this week's episode, we're joined by Mark Davis, host of The Mark Davis Show in Dallas-Fort Worth, to discuss whether Donald Trump will endorse pick a side in the John Cornyn-Ken Paxton runoff and what impact that would have.

In this conversation, host Julie DeNofa sits down with Kathy Posey, Paige Butler, and Kim Robbins, three inspiring women serving on the Montgomery County Overdose Prevention Endeavor Board (M-COPE) Kathy and Kim, Co-Founders of M-COPE, share their personal stories of losing a child to addiction and how, after four moms met through the GRASP grief group ( Grief Recovery After Substance Passing) after losing their children to accidental overdose, they realized the need for spreading awareness around the disease of addiction.  Paige also shares her journey through a different perspective of loving a child who is now in recovery from substance use disorder. With their stories, Kathy, Paige, and Kim are now turning their pain into purpose in helping other families heal.  The mission at M-COPE is to collaborate with individuals, communities, schools, and organizations to raise awareness about substance use disorder and the alarming rise in overdose and drug-related deaths in Montgomery County and surrounding areas. Their efforts are grounded in four key pillars: education, awareness, prevention, and remembrance.   Through this approach, they shine a light on the growing drug crisis, work to end the stigma surrounding substance use, and advocate for those currently in need of support as well as for those who can no longer speak for themselves.  Topics Discussed: Advice for parents and families learning to navigate grief after overdose loss The importance of remembering loved ones beyond their addiction Recognizing that everyone grieves differently and giving others more grace Understanding emotional triggers and grief waves after loss Why volunteer-driven organizations play a critical role in community recovery How overdose awareness and prevention efforts are helping communities — CHAPTERS:  00:00 Purpose From Pain - Introduction to MCOPE 03:33 Meet Kathy Posey, Kim Robbins, and Paige Bulter 08:04 What M-Cope is and the Four Pillars: Awareness, Prevention, Education, and Rememberance 11:06 Volunteering, Community Partners, and Supporting Newly Bereaved 15:39 Grief Advice For Families: Connection, Caregiving, Healing, and Support  23:10 Recognizing Grief Waves and Triggers and Finding Joy Again 28:47 Honoring Loved Ones Who Lost Their Lives to Addiction 30:39 The Hope of Recovery  33:52 M-COPE Outreach through Blessing Bags, Narcan Outreach, Scholarships And Community Impact 39:11 Recovery Community Resources — Connect with M-Cope online:  Website: https://mcope.org/  Scholarship: https://mcope.org/scholarship/  Volunteer Opportunities: https://mcope.org/support/#volunteer  Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mocope/?ref=share&mibextid=wwXIfr&rdid=SDyLMs2NFChqDsne&share_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fshare%2Fg%2F1DCtwm4WSp%2F%3Fmibextid%3DwwXIfr — Connect with PRC on Social: IG: https://www.instagram.com/positiverecoverycenters  FB: https://www.facebook.com/PositiveRecoveryCenters  TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@positiverecoverycenter  LI: https://www.linkedin.com/company/positiverecoverycenters  YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4JcDF1gjlYch4V4iBbCgZg Want even more expert insights and support on the recovery journey?

In this episode Garth interviews Beth Schwartz from the American Psychological Association in Washington, DC at NITOP 2026. Beth describes her role supporting psychology teaching through faculty resources, policy, and curriculum work with governance groups (CABE and TOPSS), and a focus on student success and accessibility, within APA's reorganized cross-area "psychology team" that reduces silos. She discusses learning APA's internal structure, collaborating with Division 2 (STP), and plans to broaden engagement with large universities via a new advisory group. Key upcoming priorities include AI workshops and updating resources like the Skillful Psychology Student. Schwartz recounts her career from first-generation student to faculty and administrative roles, provost positions, and a remote transition to APA, which she finds less crisis-driven and more aligned with her passion for psychology education.

In this powerful and heartfelt episode of Autism for Badass Moms, host Rashidah welcomes Mitzi, who traveled from Yonkers, New York, to join us in the studio for an honest conversation about the life-changing power of community.Many autism moms begin their journey feeling isolated, overwhelmed, and unsure where to turn. Between navigating diagnoses, therapies, school systems, and daily life, the path can feel incredibly lonely. In many communities, autism is still misunderstood or rarely talked about, leaving mothers to carry the emotional and logistical weight largely on their own.But what happens when you finally find your people?In this episode, Mitzi shares how community became the turning point in her journey as an autism mom.

If you've ever looked at the FIRE movement — Financial Independence, Retire Early — and thought, that sounds great… but what about kids? — today's episode is for you.For years, the assumption has been that FIRE works best for people without children: dual-income professionals willing to live extremely frugally in pursuit of early retirement. But what happens when you want both financial independence and a family?My guest today, Kristy Shen and Bryce Leung are some of the pioneers of the modern FIRE movement. The couple retired in their early 30s with over a million dollars invested and inspired thousands of people to rethink the traditional path of working for decades before enjoying life.But even after achieving financial independence, Kristy found herself confronting a new financial question: Could they afford to have a child?In their new book, Parent Like a Millionaire, Kristy and Bryce explore what it really takes to raise a family while maintaining financial freedom. From resisting the pressure to overspend on baby gear, to rethinking housing, childcare, and education, their approach challenges many of the assumptions we've been taught about the cost of raising kids.In this conversation, Kristy and Bryce share practical strategies for making your money work harder as a parent — and how thoughtful financial planning can reduce stress and create more freedom for families.We also explore the deeper emotional layer behind financial independence. Kristy grew up in poverty, and her pursuit of FIRE was driven not just by the desire to retire early, but by the need for security and stability. What happens when someone who has worked so hard to escape financial instability decides to raise a child? Can financial independence help break cycles of generational money trauma? Hosted on Acast.

The Prism of America's Education with Host Karen Schoen – In order to transform something, you must first destroy it. In order to destroy it, you must LIE to the people, so they will give you their power. Someone can only have power over you if you let them. We let the elite rule because that is what we are taught. Our Ignorance allows our rulers to subjugate us. We become the "useful idiots"...

Jen Davenport joins Psychedelics Today to interview co-founder Joe Moore about the growth of Psychedelics Today, the broader psychedelic ecosystem, and how professionals are beginning to engage with psychedelic ideas. Davenport is the founder of Iron Thread Partners and a graduate of the Vital psychedelic training program. Her work focuses on executive leadership, decision making, and organizational development. In this conversation she asks Moore about the evolution of Psychedelics Today and the changes he has witnessed across the psychedelic field over the past decade. Moore explains that Psychedelics Today began as a podcast exploring psychedelic research, therapy, and culture. Over time the project expanded into a media and education platform covering psychedelic science, harm reduction, and professional training. The organization now produces podcasts, journalism, courses, and public conversations about psychedelics and their place in modern society. A central part of the discussion is psychedelic integration. Moore notes that insight during a psychedelic experience does not automatically lead to lasting change. The integration process often requires continued work through journaling, meditation, therapy, and community support. These practices help people translate insights into stable changes in behavior and perspective. The conversation also explores policy changes in the United States. Colorado's Natural Medicine framework is creating a regulated system for psychedelic services while the state also maintains a broader decriminalization approach. Moore discusses the tension between regulated access and grassroots psychedelic culture, as well as the questions around accessibility, pricing, and corporate participation. Davenport asks how executives and professionals are approaching psychedelics. In some circles psychedelics are framed as tools for creativity or performance. Moore cautions against this framing. Psychedelics often open difficult personal material and should be approached with care rather than treated as productivity tools. Education remains a recurring theme throughout the episode. As public interest grows, Moore stresses the importance of studying the legal landscape, understanding the scientific literature, and developing responsible practices for preparation and integration. The conversation offers a grounded look at how Psychedelics Today approaches the psychedelic resurgence. Rather than focusing on hype, Moore emphasizes education, safety, and thoughtful engagement with psychedelic experiences.

A natural alternative/follow on from DataClass Wizard Converts to ←→ from dictionaries cattrs also focuses on functional composition and not coupling your data model to its serialization and validation rules. When you're handed unstructured data (by your network, file system, database, …), cattrs helps to convert this data into trustworthy structured data. Batteries Included: cattrs comes with pre-configured converters for a number of serialization libraries, including JSON (standard library, orjson, UltraJSON), msgpack, cbor2, bson, PyYAML, tomlkit and msgspec (supports only JSON at this time). Brian #3: Learning to program in the AI age Jose Blanca “I teach a couple of introductory Python courses and I've been thinking about which advice to give to my students, that are studying how to program for the first time. I have collected my ideas in these blog posts” Why learning to program is as useful as ever, even with powerful AI tools available. How to use AI as a tutor rather than a shortcut, and why practice remains the key to real understanding. What the real learning objectives are: mental models, managing complexity, and thinking like a software developer. Michael #4: VS Code extension for FastAPI and friends Enhances the FastAPI development experience in Visual Studio Code Path Operation Explorer: Provides a hierarchical tree view of all FastAPI routes in your application. Search for routes: Use the Command Palette and quickly search for routes by path, method, or name. CodeLens links appear above HTTP client calls like client.get('/items'), letting you jump directly to the matching route definition. Deploy your application directly to FastAPI Cloud from the status bar with zero config. View real-time logs from your FastAPI Cloud deployed applications directly within VS Code.
