Lubaina Himid talks to Ben Luke about her influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Himid was born 1954 in Zanzibar and lives today in Preston, UK. Her paintings, sculptures and installations are an invitation to consider marginalised figures, communities and diasporic cultures, to expand the histories that frame our worldview, and ultimately to effect change. From the 1980s, Lubaina has been both artist and organiser, a prolific collaborator, and a crucial voice in establishing a platform for Black artists and women artists in the UK and beyond. Engaging directly with historic and contemporary injustice and structural racism, while relating personal and intimate experiences and feelings, and reinterpreting and reimagining Western art history, her work is rigorously critical and yet poetic, sensuous, humorous and often joyous. She talks about the early impact of Stanley Spencer and Bridget Riley, the inexhaustible influence of William Hogarth, her curatorial work of the mid-1980s and her admiration for her peer in the Black British Arts movement Claudette Johnson. She also reflects on the influence of writers including Audre Lorde and Essex Hemphill. Plus, she gives insight into her life in the studio and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Lubaina Himid with Magda Stawarska: Another Chance Encounter, Kettle's Yard, Cambridge, 12 July-2 November; Connecting Thin Black Lines, Institute of Contemporary Arts, London, 24 June-7 September.

They delve into the importance of inner work and self-awareness in overcoming the negative impacts of social media, including the influence of trolls and negative feedback. The discussion emphasizes the need for authenticity in content creation and the significance of building confidence through understanding one's unique gifts and strengths. Ultimately, the conversation highlights the journey towards self-acceptance and the importance of curating a positive online experience.     takeaways Social media amplifies the tendency to compare ourselves to others.

Trolls and negative feedback often stem from the insecurities of others. Engaging with social media can be healthier when it involves interaction rather than passive consumption. Finding authenticity in content creation can lead to greater satisfaction and fulfillment. Positive affirmations should be believable and resonate with one's true self.

Come, Joni with me to the Cosmos and engage Jesus Christ

The salient point of our discussion centers on the intricate relationship between free will, divine purpose, and the nature of prayer. We delve into the profound implications of understanding that while God invites us to engage with Him, it is crucial to recognize the distinction between merely asking for our desires and seeking alignment with His will. Throughout our dialogue, we explore the concept that God's answers to our prayers—whether they manifest as "yes," "no," or "not yet"—serve a greater purpose in our spiritual growth and maturity. Additionally, we emphasize the necessity of cultivating an intimate relationship with God through prayer, Scripture, and community, highlighting that our journey of faith is one of continuous learning and discovery. Ultimately, we encourage listeners to embrace the complexity of their spiritual journeys, acknowledging that both questions and uncertainties are integral to deepening their understanding of God and His plans for their lives.Takeaways: This episode emphasizes the importance of understanding that our discussions are not necessarily reflective of absolute beliefs, but rather explorations of thoughts that arise in the moment. Throughout the podcast, we discussed the need for a personal relationship with God, which is paramount in guiding our spiritual journey and understanding His will. The speakers shared their personal experiences of prayer, emphasizing the need for authenticity and openness in communicating with God, regardless of the circumstances. An essential takeaway from this episode is that the journey of faith is continuous, requiring us to seek understanding and engage deeply with our beliefs and the scriptures.

Merrill Hutchinson and Andy Dalton on Parenting SeasonsIntroductionThe video features Merrill Hutchinson and Andy Dalton discussing the various roles of dads during different “seasons” of parenting. The conversation is grounded in the analogy of farming seasons, where different tasks are performed at different times of the year—relating this to the developmental stages of children and the corresponding responsibilities of parents.Overview of Parenting Seasons1.Service Season (0-3 years)2.Leadership Season (3-13 years)3.Mentorship Season (13-18 years)4.Friend/Counsel Season (18 years and older)Each season corresponds to specific tasks, challenges, and expectations for both the child and the parent.1. Service Season (0-3 years)•Role of the Parent: The primary role during this season is that of a servant. Parents are tasked with meeting the basic needs of their children, which include feeding, changing diapers, and providing comfort.•Key Responsibilities:•Understanding and responding to the child's cries and needs.•Learning the various dimensions of what it means to be a caregiver, including emotional support.2. Leadership Season (3-13 years)•Role of the Parent: The parent transitions into a leadership role where the focus shifts towards teaching and guiding children rather than just serving them.•Key Responsibilities:•Instilling values and expectations related to responsibility and service to others.•Involving children in household chores and responsibilities to teach them about contributing to the family.3. Mentorship Season (13-18 years)•Role of the Parent: This season focuses on mentorship, where parents guide teenagers towards independence while allowing them to make their own choices.•Key Responsibilities:•Encouraging self-reliance and accountability while providing a safety net for mistakes.•Engaging in discussions about values and preparing them for real-world challenges.4. Friend/Counsel Season (18+ years)•Role of the Parent: The final season transitions into a friend or counsel role, where parents no longer direct but rather support their adult children.•Key Responsibilities:•Building a relationship based on mutual respect and friendship, allowing for open dialogues about life choices.•Offering counsel when asked, without overstepping boundaries, thus respecting their independence.ConclusionMerrill and Andy emphasize the importance of understanding these parenting seasons to fulfill one's roles effectively. The ability to adapt to the varying needs of children at different ages can lead to producing well-rounded, responsible individuals. The conversation encourages intentionality in parenting, underscoring that a parent's understanding of their role significantly impacts their children's development and future contributions to society.https://rocksolidfamilies.orgSupport the show#Rocksolidfamilies,#familytherapy,#marriagecounseling,#parenting,#faithbasedcounseling,#counseling,#Strongdads,#coaching,#lifecoach,#lifecoaching,#marriagecoaching,#marriageandfamily,#control,#security,#respect,#affection,#love,#purpose,#faith,#mastersofdisaster,#storms,#disasterrelief,#tornados,#hurricanes,#floods

Jeannette talks about the critical topic of mergers and acquisitions, focusing on the common mistakes that buyers often make during these complex transactions. She outlines the top ten pitfalls, including the importance of thorough due diligence, the risks of overpaying, and the necessity of aligning cultural fits between companies Jeannette explains why: Thorough due diligence is essential in M&A transactions. It involves a comprehensive review of financial statements, contracts, and operational workflows to uncover hidden risks and validate claims made by the seller. Buyers should ground their offers in data-driven valuations and not get swept up in bidding wars. Engaging valuation experts can help ensure that the acquisition price aligns with the true value of the business. Assessing the cultural compatibility between the acquiring and acquired companies is crucial. Misalignment can lead to employee disengagement and operational challenges, so developing a cultural integration plan is essential. Successful integration of two companies requires careful planning and clear communication. Mapping out the integration process and defining key milestones can prevent operational chaos and ensure a smooth transition.

This week's episode features not one but two conversations—with Aron and Strauss—which, while it may sound like a jazz-age songwriting duo, is in fact a pairing of two distinguished historians: Stephen Aron and Barry Strauss. They join our ongoing series of interviews exploring historians' early love of the past and the essential role of intellectual humility in historical thinking. First up is Stephen Aron, Professor Emeritus of History at UCLA and President and CEO of the Autry Museum of the American West in Los Angeles. The Autry is one of the nation's foremost museums dedicated to the art, history, and cultures of the American West. It weaves together scholarship, public exhibitions, and community engagement to tell stories that cross boundaries—geographic, temporal, and cultural. Aron is a pioneering historian of frontiers, borderlands, and Western American history. In Episode 289, we spoke about all three—while also discussing his long effort to bridge the gap between academic and public history. As both a professor and a museum leader, Aron has spent decades bringing historical thinking into the public square. My second guest this week is Barry Strauss, the Bryce and Edith M. Bowmar Professor in Humanistic Studies at Cornell University. A scholar of ancient Greece and Rome, Strauss is well known for combining academic rigor with public engagement, writing widely read books on classical antiquity, military history, and leadership. Strauss is no stranger to Historically Thinking—he's appeared on the podcast several times before, in Episodes 11, 45, and 256, where we've discussed the death of Caesar, the intellectual achievement of Thucydides, and the war that made the Roman Empire. He is also a recipient of the 2024 Bradley Prize, awarded by the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation to individuals who have made outstanding contributions to American intellectual and civic life. The prize honors leaders whose work—whether in education, history, law, or public policy—strengthens the foundations of a free society.

In this episode of Maximize Your Hunt, host Jon Teater discusses innovative strategies for managing hunting properties, focusing on the integration of native and non-native plants, agroforestry systems, and effective tree planting techniques. Guest Harry Green shares insights on his farm's layout, irrigation systems, and the benefits of specific tree species like black locust and chestnuts for attracting deer. The conversation emphasizes the importance of creating a sustainable and productive landscape that benefits both wildlife and human enjoyment. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the complexities of native versus non-native plants, exploring their origins and ecological impacts. They discuss the importance of agroforestry in creating sustainable landscapes that support both food production and ecosystem services. The conversation also highlights the significance of designing landscapes for wildlife, particularly deer and turkeys, and emphasizes community engagement through upcoming events and courses. Takeaways: The world is always changing; adapting is key. Non-native plants can provide unique benefits. Agroforestry systems can yield economic and ecological benefits. Farm layout and irrigation are crucial for tree health. Black locust is a sustainable choice for fencing. Chestnuts are highly attractive to deer and a viable cash crop. Mowing practices can help manage tree growth effectively. Simple propagation methods can lead to successful nurseries. Consider the human value of plants in your landscape. Engaging family in gardening enhances the experience. Native plants can enhance biodiversity but non-native plants also have their place. Understanding the origins of plants helps in landscape design. Black currants are a great choice for family-friendly fruiting. Designing landscapes should reflect personal and family values. Agroforestry systems can yield both food and ecosystem services. Different crops have varying economic viability over time. The eight forms of capital can guide sustainable farming practices. Community engagement is vital for successful agroforestry. Access and layout are critical in landscape design for wildlife. Upcoming events provide opportunities for hands-on learning and community building.   Social Links https://www.propagateag.com/ https://www.propagateag.com/rambleon https://www.instagram.com/_harry_greene/ https://whitetaillandscapes.com/ https://www.facebook.com/whitetaillandscapes/ https://www.instagram.com/whitetail_landscapes/?hl=en Learn more about your ad choices.
