It was a sudden change in Naledi’s behavior that first raised concern—she became withdrawn, stopped socializing, and spent most of her time in her room. Her mother then noticed physical changes, including a rounder stomach and the development of breasts, which led to the heartbreaking discovery that Naledi was pregnant. Now, as the pregnancy progresses, the family is seeking justice and fighting to ensure that the responsible party is held accountable. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Fotós szeretnék lenni — fejezte be végül Zsombor, nagyot sóhajtva.En: "I've decided... to quit my engineering job. I want to become a photographer," Zsombor finally finished, letting out a big sigh.Hu: A csendet csak a hullámok csendes morajlása törte meg, míg mindenki az új információt emésztette.En: The silence was broken only by the gentle murmur of the waves as everyone digested the new information.Hu: Zsombor aggódva figyelte, Katalin hogyan reagál.En: Zsombor watched anxiously to see how Katalin would react.Hu: De ami történt, arra nem számított. Katalin elmosolyodott, és megszorította Zsombor kezét.En: But what happened, he didn't expect. Katalin smiled and squeezed Zsombor's hand.Hu: — Büszke vagyok rád — mondta. — Bátorság kell ahhoz, hogy kövesd az álmaidat. Támogatni foglak, bármerre is vezessen ez az út.En: "I'm proud of you," she said. "It takes courage to follow your dreams. I will support you wherever this path leads."Hu: Zsombor szíve megtelt boldogsággal.En: Zsombor's heart filled with happiness.Hu: Péter megveregette a vállát, és elégedetten bólintott.En: Péter patted his shoulder and nodded contentedly.Hu: Miközben a nap alábukott a Balaton felett, Zsombor rájött, hogy igaz barátsággal és szeretettel nem kell félnie.En: As the sun set over Lake Balaton, Zsombor realized that with true friendship and love, he didn't need to be afraid.Hu: A támogatás ott rejlik azokban, akik igazán törődnek vele.En: Support lies in those who truly care about him.

Physician and psychologist Heidi Feldman is a pioneer in the field of developmental behavioral pediatrics who says that the world's understanding of childhood disability is changing and so too are the ways we approach it. Where once institutionalization was common, today we find integrative, family-centered approaches, charting a more humane, hopeful path forward. For example, for children born prematurely with increased likelihood of disability, increasing skin-to-skin contact – what is called  “kangaroo care” – can literally reshape that child's brain development, she tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

Hey humans, on this episode, I talk with Kristen Genovese, CEO of Not My Kid, as part one of a two-part series discussing the critical intersection of mental health, the fentanyl crisis, and its impact on children and families. Kristen shares her extensive background in behavioral health and her journey to Not My Kid, emphasizing the organization's focus on prevention and early intervention. I am on the board of Not My Kid, and as those of you who know my background, this is a critical area of personal and professional focus for me, too. We discuss the evolving nature of the opioid crisis and the importance of adapting support systems to meet the changing needs of families. Our conversation gets into the challenges of addressing substance use and mental health issues, particularly in the context of generational trauma and the stigma surrounding these struggles.  We talk in specific about connecting these resources both within communities and workplaces to go beyond conventional workplace resources like Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), which often fall short in providing adequate support. We also talk about "Not My Kid" celebrating its 25th anniversary and focusing on expanding its reach and impact in the next 25 years. They are developing a full continuum of care model that includes prevention, intervention, and treatment, as well as family navigation services. The organization is also adapting its approach to engage with parents and children in the digital age as well. Again, this is part one of two, and the next episode will further explore the mental health crisis and actionable steps for parents, grandparents, and employers to support children.

A fresh new format featuring a coaching conversation with Host Matt Dixon and Co-Host Max Gering. This Valentine's Day, we explore how athletes can integrate sport into life in a way that strengthens relationships rather than strains them—because true performance isn't just about results, it's about the bigger picture. IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon and Purple Patch Coach Max Gering discuss the importance of integrating sport into life sustainably, especially for athletes with busy schedules. They emphasize the need for effective training that fits within one's life, rather than overloading with long rides every weekend. They highlight the significance of communication with partners and family, planning together, and ensuring sport enhances life rather than compromising it. Practical tips include the "Sunday special" for reflection and planning, and making training a family activity. They stress that consistent, effective training over time leads to better performance and overall well-being, rather than focusing solely on training hours.
