A Global Perspective on Reshaping Psychiatric Care: Dr. Nasser Loza, Director of The Behman Hospital and Maadi Psychology Center

“It wasn't a profession, it was a way of life,” observes internationally respected psychiatrist Dr. Nasser Loza, reflecting on a century-long family legacy in mental health care that began when his grandfather founded The Behman Hospital in Cairo. In this candid Raise the Line conversation with host Michael Carrese, Dr. Loza traces the transformation of psychiatry he's witnessed in his long career as increases in classifications, payment bureaucracy, reliance on pharmaceuticals, and technological disruption have each left their mark. The cumulative costs associated with these changes have, he laments, pushed care out of reach for many and hindered the human connection that is key to the discipline. He describes his prescription for countering these trends as a focus on effective and modest aims. “Rather than saying, come and see me in therapy for five years and I will make a better person out of you, I think focusing on symptom-targeted help is going to be what is needed.”  In this wide-ranging interview, you'll also learn about progress on advancing the rights of mental health patients and lowering stigmas, how to manage the rise of online therapy and use of AI chatbots, and the importance of empathy and transparency in mental health counseling. Don't miss this valuable perspective on a critically important dimension of healthcare that's informed by decades of experience as a clinician, government official and global advocate. Mentioned in this episode:The Behman HospitalMaadi Psychology Center If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this episode, we're diving deep into one of the most talked-about (and often misunderstood) topics in early parenthood SIDS and co-sleeping. Despite the scary warnings you've probably heard from the AAP or your pediatrician, many families still find themselves wondering how to safely sleep near their baby. And honestly? That's a valid question. We'll explore what the research actually says about bedsharing, the science of a baby's biological need for closeness, and how parents can make informed choices that balance safety and connection. You'll hear about the work of James McKenna, Helen Ball, and La Leche League's Sweet Sleep, plus insights from Sarah Ockwell-Smith that bring real-world practicality to this nuanced conversation. If you've ever felt torn between expert advice and your natural instincts, this episode will help you find clarity, confidence, and calm in your family's sleep choices. 00:00 Introduction: The Importance of Safe Sleep Practices 01:18 Personal Story: Transforming a Mother's Sleep Routine 03:28 Newborn Sleep Solutions Guide 07:22 The Science Behind Newborn Sleep 09:06 Interview with Dr. Greer Kirshenbaum 17:07 Understanding Co-Sleeping and Bed Sharing 22:32 Safe Sleep Guidelines and SIDS 28:39 Controversial Topics: Vaccines and SIDS 31:06 Global Perspectives on Safe Sleep 35:22 Purity Coffee: A Healthier Choice 38:43 Addressing Sleep Challenges in Babies 42:16 Embracing Flexibility with a Newborn 44:04 The Importance of Nervous System Regulation 46:11 Building a Support System for New Moms 52:28 Debunking Myths About Newborn Habits 56:47 The Impact of Sleep Training on Mental Health 01:06:43 Tips for Optimal Baby Sleep 01:13:17 Final Thoughts and Resources   Guest Bio: Greer Kirshenbaum PhD is an Author, Neuroscientist, Doula, Infant and Family Sleep Specialist and Mother.

Ver aquí: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-oxford-handbook-of-the-protestant-reformations-9780199646920?cc=gb&lang=en& . ¿Y si la Reforma no fue única, sino parte de un terremoto religioso mundial? Este episodio amplía el zoom: pone en diálogo a Lutero con Guru Nanak y a los reformadores con Wang Yangming y Li Zhi, para mostrar reformas paralelas que redibujaron devoción, género y autoridad desde Europa hasta Asia. También seguimos las consecuencias: del laboratorio tolerante de Estambul a la confesionalización persa; de los puertos VOC (Batavia, Amboina, Formosa) donde el calvinismo se mezcló con lenguas locales y matrimonios mixtos, a las islas del Caribe con moravos predicando a esclavizados pese a la resistencia de plantadores. El resultado no es un relato europeo exportado, sino una trama de comparaciones recíprocas y efectos cruzados: imprentas, catequesis, consistorios y escuelas que viajaron en valijas postales y bodegas, y que negociaron —a pie de plaza— qué significaba creer, obedecer y convivir. La “larga Reforma”, vista así, es un mapa de conexiones donde milagros, comercio y disciplina se encuentran con políticas imperiales y voces indígenas.

On this episode of Trending in Ed, Mike Palmer is joined by Howard Blumenthal and Dr. Bob Pianta, co-authors of the new book, Kids on Earth: The Learning Potential of 5 Billion Minds. We discuss the research and ideas behind their book, which explores how learning takes place for kids in real life and how that can be better translated into schools. We also delve into the distinction between "old school," "not school," and "new school" models of education. Key Takeaways Reinventing Education: We need to recognize that the traditional "old school" model, which relies on an industrial approach and is often disconnected from students' interests, is not working well. The vast majority of our lives' learning takes place in the unstructured "not school" environment, which includes things like the internet, play, and music. The "new school" model seeks to bridge these two ideas by freeing up teachers and resources to allow students to pursue their interests, which increases motivation and engagement. Three Elements of "New School": The new school model is built on three key elements: personal, relational, and active learning. Learning is personal when it is relevant and meaningful to the individual. It is relational because it involves a connection with others, like teachers and peers. Finally, learning is active when kids are deeply and authentically engaged. The Role of AI: We discuss how artificial intelligence will impact education by absorbing tasks that have little to do with teaching and learning, thereby freeing up teachers' time. For students, AI can personalize education in a way that traditional schooling cannot. We argue that instead of banning technology like phones in schools, adults should focus on creating safe learning environments and using these tools effectively. Why You Should Listen > This episode offers a hopeful perspective on the future of education, providing a roadmap for thinking about how we can reinvent our schools to better serve the next generation of learners. > We provide a framework for understanding and discussing the challenges in education today, including the disconnect between traditional teaching methods and how kids actually learn. > We offer insights into how to involve kids in conversations about what matters to them, which is a crucial step in creating a more relevant and engaging learning experience.

In this episode, Guy welcomed back Reverend Bill McDonald. He shared his profound insights on the power of love, spiritual healing, and maintaining a high frequency to influence positive change in the world. He discussed the importance of focusing on love and light, even amidst global turmoil, and the transformative potential of self-love and meditation. Reverend Bill reflected on his personal experiences with healing, recounted stories from his spiritual journey, and emphasized the significance of living authentically and spreading positivity. This enlightening conversation aims to inspire listeners to embrace their inner potential and contribute to global well-being. About Rev. Bill: Rev. Bill's life has been a spiritual journey, spanning slightly over 7 decades. His whole life has been a mystical trip in search of gurus, the paranormal, and self-discovery. He has written about his many spiritually transforming experiences and “near-death experiences” including supernatural events during his combat tour-of-duty in the Vietnam War.  In his books he has shared some incredible spiritual events that are beyond both common understanding or explanation. His autobiography “Warrior A Spiritual Odyssey” takes us on a life quest for love, understanding, forgiveness and enlightenment. His follow-up book (Publishing date 2017) “Alchemy of a Warrior's Heart “continues that mystical journey including four trips to India for even more profound experiences with holy men, miracles and his personal relationship with the Divine. His books are also available in German and Spanish. What he knows for sure, after all these years, is that the only thing that is truly real is LOVE.  He speaks publicly about the need to forgive and power and energy of love. His mission in life is to inspire others to seek the Divine and he does that though his personal stories of his own life experiences.  He is a seeker but not just for himself. His “mission” is to allow others to experience his journey through his stories. He has had 3 near-death and near-death-like- experiences and many countless encounters with the supernatural. His beliefs are simple: There is but ONE GOD – and our only mission is to LOVE & SERVE ALL. Key Points Discussed:  (00:00) - Rev.

Throughout almost 100 episodes of the Good Future podcast we've traced the evolution of the sustainable investment sector. But now we're entering a new era of sustainable finance, where climate risk reporting, impact measurement and climate-tech innovation have become core parts of investment management. Sustainable investing has matured, and that's in large part due to a global push to define precisely what it means to be ‘sustainable', with a huge contribution being made by the development of sustainable finance taxonomies all over the world. Last month we saw the launch of Australia's very own Taxonomy, and today we're joined by the perfect guest to help us make sense of it all., and that's Linda Romanovska. She helps us understand why it's important, how we can use it, and how it compares and interacts with other global models. Linda is a global taxonomy expert, she's contributed to the development of sustainable finance taxonomies in the EU, South Asia and right here in Australia. At the same time she's worked as a senior sustainable finance advisor working with boutique consultancies as well as the Big4. And if that's not enough to keep her busy, she's also doing a PHD exploring the intersection of nature and sustainable finance. I learned so much in this episode, and I hope you do too. Linda's insights are really practical, breaking down the nature of a taxonomy within the global context, highlighting sectors where it has the potential to make an impact, and, how it fits within the broader sustainable finance roadmap in Australia. Also, we've produced a One-page Taxonomy FIELD GUIDE. Outlining the key opportunities of aligning a portfolio with the Australian framework, and how it compares globally.Find it on my website at www.Johntreadgold.com While you're there you can find all the show notes for the episode, and you can sign up for my newsletter where I share regular impact insights, plus, you'll be the first to know about new podcast episodes as they drop.

In this episode, Hobbs Magaret, author of Herd: Animals That Gave Rise to Humanity and Why We Need Them More Than Ever, joins Cal for a deep, thought-provoking conversation about grazing, ecology, and shifting our perspectives on livestock production. Hobbs shares his journey from ranching in Oregon to working on massive cattle stations in Australia, blending personal experience with philosophical insights. The discussion explores high density grazing, the role of herd animals in human history, how to market regenerative beef, and the radical idea of viewing beef as a waste product rather than the main goal. Along the way, Hobbs touches on corporate politics, ecological ideals, genetic selection for fertility, and the lessons learned from managing vastly different environments.Topics CoveredHobbs Magaret's background and ranching journey in the U.S. and AustraliaThe origins of his interest in high density grazing (influences from Allan Savory and Johann Zietsman)Moving from a protein-production mindset to an ecological-function mindsetThe concept of beef as a waste product instead of a byproductLessons learned from grazing in Oregon vs. Texas vs. Northern AustraliaManaging corporate politics while implementing ecological changesPerformance art and visibility in agriculture marketingUsing social media (TikTok & Instagram) to grow influence and sell beefThe role of hindgut fermenters in ecosystems and simulating their function with ruminantsGenetic adaptation and breed considerations for different environmentsThe importance of fertility as the key livestock selection criterionMarketing strategies and the value of storytelling in agriculture If you're interested in the future of regenerative ranching, this episode will challenge your assumptions and spark new ideas. Hobbs brings a rare combination of large-scale experience, ecological philosophy, and practical know-how. Whether you're grazing a few acres or managing thousands, his insights into livestock genetics, grazing strategy, and the deeper purpose of ruminants will help you think differently about your land, your herd, and your role as a steward.Resources MentionedHerd: Animals That Gave Rise to Humanity and Why We Need Them More Than Ever by Hobbs MagaretAllan Savory's work and holistic management principlesMan, Cattle and Veld by Johann ZietsmanHow to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale CarnegieLooking for Livestock that thrive on grass?  Check out Grass Based GeneticsVisit our Sponsors:Noble Research InstituteRedmond AgricultureGrazing Grass LinksNew Listener Resource GuideProvide feedback for the podcastWebsiteInsidersResourcesCommunity (on Facebook)Check out the Apiary Chronicles PodcastChapters(00:00) - Introduction and Fast Five Questions (00:52) - Career Journey and Ranching Experience (09:57) - High Density Grazing and Ecological Insights (30:53) - Marketing and Social Media Success (32:23) - Writing the Book and Philosophical Reflections (45:49) - The Central Thesis: Ecologically Aligned Beef (46:46) - Controversial Insights on American Cattle Industry (48:07) - Historical Context and Ecological Impact (49:53) - The Paradigm Shift: Profitability vs. Sustainability (01:01:14) - Genetics and Fertility in Cattle Breeding (01:02:11) - Ecological Adaptation and Market Realities (01:05:36) - Global Perspectives on Cattle Breeding (01:17:44) - The Role of Hindgut Fermenters in Grazing Systems (01:20:01) - Final Thoughts and Reflections

The FBI has just declared there is no Epstein client list. For millions of Americans across political lines, this strains credibility—and raises serious questions, not the least is about the FBI's own discussions of the Epstein 'list'. Nick Bryant, a former reporter, knows this story very well, having worked with the original team who first broke the story. He has written books about the mindset and underground network that fuels such activities, such as in college sports and other industries, as documented in The Franklin Scandal. He helped found Epstein Justice, to bring resources to the victims of the Epstein empire. Is the FBI's recent declaration a betrayal of public trust as well as known facts? Nick Bryant thinks so.  Nick Bryant's writing has recurrently focused on the plight of disadvantaged children in the United States. He's been published in numerous national journals, including the Journal of Professional Ethics, Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology, Journal of Social Distress and Homelessness, Journal of Health Care for the Poor and Underserved, and Journal of School Health. He co-authored America's Children: Triumph or Tragedy, addressing the medical and developmental problems of lower socioeconomic children in America.
