Being the first person to do something isn’t easy. There’s no blueprint for what you are doing, no conventional wisdom to fall back on when all else fails. There is also the pressure of expectations and all the people who are counting on your success. But it’s a way to show people what is possible. Being first means being a pioneer. And here in Connecticut, people are pioneering a wide range of fields every day. GUESTS: Shelly Carter: Fire Chief at the Hamden Fire Department. She is the first woman and first person of color to serve in that role. Dawn Leaks Ragsdale: Inaugural Executive Director of the Center for Inclusive Growth, a group created through a partnership between Yale and the city of New Haven that seeks to build opportunities for economic growth for all New Haven residents. Shiang-Kwei Wang: Campus President at CT State Gateway. She’s the first person to hold the title of “Campus President” and the first Asian American leader of Gateway.

If you've been thinking, “I'm not that bad… but I'm also not okay,” this one's for you. Today I'm talking with my dear friend Suzanne Warye—creator of The Sober Mom Life and author of The Sober Shift: A Modern-Day Guide to Living an Abundant Sober Life—about why sobriety can be less about “rock bottom” and more about reclamation. I asked Suzanne Warye, author of The Sober Shift, to share how to stop obsessing about “forever,” live in the present, and use simple shifts—like counting sober firsts—to build momentum without shame or perfection. She breaks down the mindset tools that actually helped her, why she says “sober for good” (for the good of your mind, relationships, presence), and how to keep going when your brain is screaming for the easy button.

In this episode, we're doing something a little different. Instead of doing a deep dive on one woman, we talk about a handful of women who were among the first women to do what they did. We start off by mentioning a number of firsts that we have already covered. Then we get into the main topic. We have chosen five broad categories and each picked a woman within that category to discuss. We give an overview of who these women are (or were) and what they are known for. We share when and where they were born, a little about their early years, then get into how they broke into their field. Finally we talk a little about their legacy and impact in that particular field. We even reserved a small section for honorable mentions: other women we came across who we would love to talk about but that we didn't really have time to explore in detail.     Follow the podcast on Instagram @BigReputationsPod ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hosts: Kimberly Kunkle and Rebecca L.

Only a tiny percentage of women ever reach seven figures in business. That's one of the reasons I'm writing my next book—and in this episode, you get a front-row seat as I begin to frame it with my publisher and book coach, Debbie Jenkins. This isn't just about writing. It's about documenting an experiment: can I build a Million Euro business without burning out? And how do you capture the subtle shifts, the liminal moments, and the messy in-betweens that really change us along the way? Inside this raw, unfiltered conversation, you'll hear: Why books fail when they map a journey instead of marking a landmark transformation. How to journal like an investigative reporter and never lose the insights that matter most. The 4F prompts (Failure, Firsts, Feck-Ups, and Fightbacks) to turn setbacks into fuel for growth. Why vulnerability isn't about oversharing—it's about showing what wakes you at 4am and how you carry on anyway. How to set powerful public intentions and hack serendipity so opportunities find you. If you've ever dreamed of writing a book—or simply want to see what it takes to step fully into your own edge of potential—this episode will give you both the courage and the practical tools to start.

Packers fans are losing their minds over the blockbuster trade landing Micah Parsons from Dallas for two first-round picks and Kenny Clark—it's the kind of move that screams Super Bowl contender status. Callers flood the lines with raw excitement, from shock and screams to debating if this fleeces the Cowboys and supercharges Green Bay's defense. Host Ryan Schlipp dives into the hype, reliving those "I don't know what to do with my hands" moments while pondering Parsons' impact alongside Rashan Gary and Lucas Van Ness. Fans celebrate the deal as a steal, with one caller comparing it to highway robbery and highlighting Parsons' elite pressure rates. Discussions on Kenny Clark's exit, his hefty contract, and how it frees up cap space for a younger, dominant front. Predictions roll in, like Chris from Alabama's 12-5 record and third NFC seed, amid AFC North battles and divisional sweeps. Rival fan copium exposed, with Bears and Cowboys supporters downplaying Parsons after hyping him pre-trade. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

When your partner experiences something for the first time with another person—whether it's a first date, first kiss, or first intimate encounter—it can trigger a complex mix of emotions. These "firsts" often carry significant meaning and can create unexpected emotional responses, even when you feel intellectually prepared for them.You might spend months discussing, planning, and considering what opening your relationship will look like, but when the moment actually arrives—when theory becomes reality—many of us find ourselves unprepared for the emotional impact. In this episode, we're discussing some crucial strategies and reframes you can use to to move through difficult emotions and stay in alignment and connection with yourself and your partner(s).We're breaking down:— Why firsts can feel so charged, even for experienced non-monogamous people— The importance of examining what meaning you're making about these firsts and how that affects your emotional response— How the unknown aspects of what your partner is experiencing can sometimes be scarier than the reality— Practical nervous system regulation techniques to help you stay grounded when big emotions arise— The value of having a personal "rescue plan" ready for moments of distress— Why community support from people who understand non-monogamy is crucial— How intentional "wallowing" can sometimes be helpful when done with boundaries and time limits— The possibility that you might experience compersion (joy at your partner's joy) rather than distress— Why different levels of transparency and communication need to be negotiated between partners— The importance of surrendering to the unknown and trusting yourself to navigate these new experiencesResources mentioned in this episode:— Neuro-Somatic Intelligence— Free training on nervous system regulation— The Multi-Amory community and Normalizing Non-Monogamy communityJOIN The Year Of Opening® community for a full year of learning & support.

I did it! A lot of Firsts for me earlier this month. This solo episode of "Run the Race" is the recap of me running 3 marathons (26.2 miles) in 3 days in 3 different states in New England. That's 80 miles over the span of 15.5 miles of races. God made us to do hard things! You'll hear the ins and outs of my trips to run in Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine - three states I'd never been to before this either. In this shorter pod, you'll hear about inspiring new long distance runners I got to meet and run with...shirts and food with a purpose...finish times that got progressively slower...music (80s and worship) to pump me up and even sing out loud to during the marathons...scenery and obstacles on the race courses...running for others...how my body held up those 3 days...ice baths and fueling in between each marathon. I close out with my tours of these states including the longest covered bridge in the nation that takes you into NH...a farm with fresh Vermont maple syrup...a unique mill-turned in that I stayed and ate at...hitting the beach and a Presidents' home on the Maine coast...historic lighthouses...and lobster rolls! And i pray. Thanks for listening to the #RunTheRace podcast, which I hope you'll subscribe to! Share it with your friends. Also, write a quick review about it, on Apple podcasts.

“Democrats in disarray” is more than just a trope — after last year's disastrous elections, the Dems are openly fretting about how to pull the party out of its crisis. Kara speaks to a panel of millennial leaders about how to rejuvenate the party; what role the generational divide plays in policy and agenda setting; and what Democrats need to do to win back younger voters (and older ones, too). Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) was first elected to Congress in 2022. He is the chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and he's currently part of the “Fighting Oligarchy Tour” with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). Amanda Litman is a co-founder of Run for Something, an organization that helps young, diverse progressives run for down-ballot races. Since its founding in 2017, Run for Something has helped elect nearly 1,500 candidates in 49 states and the District of Columbia – including more than 250 candidates in 2024, 18 of whom flipped their seats from red to blue. Litman's new book, “When We're in Charge: The Next Generation's Guide to Leadership” was just published. Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE) was elected to the House last year, and she is the first openly transgender elected member of Congress. She is a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, a former Delaware State Senator, and a Run For Something alum. Her campaign and first few months in office (which included being banned from using the women's bathroom in the Capitol) is the subject of a new documentary “State of Firsts,” which just played at the Tribeca Film Festival and DC/DOX.

Bobby started by slightly offended Amy by talking about a bizarre new anti-aging trend happening with people getting pink tattoos. We played a round of Famous First Trivia in honor of it being the first of the month. We talked to Caller Mellisa who is excited for iHeartCountry Festival this weekend and Caller Tina who asked Bobby for a favor. Bobby then pranked Reid on his final day working with us. We then share our true feeling about Morgan announcing she had a boyfriend this week. We also got an update on Lunchbox’s old car and Bobby’s comedy special.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
