In addition, the share the values they look to instill into their kids. After that we talk about their documentary, Beneath the Shadow. They share their filming and writing process. We also talk about how this film encapsulates family, love and strength. Lastly, we finish the interview with the Fatherhood Quick Five.  About Kevin Patrick Allen Kevin Patrick Allen is a veteran journalist turned documentary filmmaker. He's been recognized for his research, his eye for identifying the unique qualities in characters and stories and his prioritization of critical thinking and empathy. His films have influenced federal legislation, earned praise from mental health professionals and encouraged resilience-building in communities large and small. He's earned honors coast to coast from organizations including the California Associated Press Radio-Television Association, NorCal RTNDA, the New York International News Festival and the Chesapeake AP Broadcasters Association.  About Eric Frith Working in both non-fiction and fiction, Eric Frith's Emmy Award storytelling has appeared everywhere. Hid work is on Netflix, Amazon Prime and Apple TV. It has been distributed by Miramax and heralded as "an Oscar level piece of work" by film critics Ebert and Roeper.

He's also known as the man who inexplicably killed his wife and himself. For Tina, Brad, Stef and Jason, he's remembered simply as “Dad”—even though he left them orphans with a tarnished legacy when he murdered their mom before killing himself. Beneath the Shadow follows the children from their idyllic early lives to the night of the crime. In addition, you see decades into the future as they refused to succumb to despair and anger. That is because of the grandparents (parents to Martha). They raised them to forgive and move forward—with or without answers. Grandpa and Grandma Cline moved into the room where the murder/suicide took place. They raised the children and refused to disparage their son-in-law, Jim. The children excelled. Still, any understanding of the tragedy would elude them for decades. Make sure you follow Kevin on Instagram over at @kevpatrickallen. Go to the kppllc.net to learn more about Beneath the Shadow.

Are there lessons we can take from other professions?What is the IAYT doing well? What can they improve upon?When will I get a vacation?These are all questions we cover in our chat with Dr. Steffany Moonaz.KEY TAKEAWAYS*This point cannot be stressed enough when talking about license within the yoga therapy space. Just because you have a license **Does not** mean you can necessarily bill insurance. Let's uncouple those thoughts, please. Thanks.*We can learn a lot from the journey of other professions. We deep dove into acupuncture with Dr. Moonaz and it is fascinating to hear the stories of professions where there are restrictions about who they can treat, how they can treat, and who supervises the practitioners. What are your thoughts here?*Where the IAYT seems to missed the mark is in understanding how people in yoga therapy find their clients through the referral process. I have said this before, but the amount of LHCPs (licensed health care providers) who have said “I will just get a 200 hour teacher training cert and do what you do, is staggering. Now I still get referrals from those folks because eventually they realize that isn't the case–but the fact that I have to explain this to an organization in our industry is wild to me. That just isn't how it works for any of us on the ground, taking clients as yoga therapists. *Gravitas and money. Those are the things we want. *Steffany said something I really want to emphasize. We can, as a profession, take the steps needed to become a licensed profession–and then decide not to do it. But in my opinion, it is WELL WORTH taking the steps to professionalize as a whole. It benefits us as an industry in the long run.*We need to give the IAYT credit where credit is due. The steps taken thus far in the area of self-regulation are significant. The accreditation process, the credentialing process, continuing education requirements, core competencies, these are all important in the development of yoga therapy as a profession. No doubt about it.*How do we distinguish the difference in all of the different services in the yoga marketplace? This is a huge question, especially in the context of yoga therapy. What ideas do YOU have? Email me, rebecca@workinginyoga.com and let me know.*This is the time where I remind you that the International Association of Yoga Therapists has no legal requirement to advocate for us as professionals. Their designation is a 501c3, which is a public serving organization. Just as a note.*Just to update you, We still have no official stance from the IAYT as to weather or not the Q designation is stopped completely, now a month later after we recorded.

This week on the podcast Stevie Ingram joins us to chat about all things licensure. As a topic that is much discussed, and much lusted after fpr a few reasons, I have invited on several thinkers to talk about being a licensed profession would mean for us individually—and as a whole.KEY TAKEAWAYS*Gatekeeping is SUCH a problem for us as an industry. It is one of my biggest pet peeves, even in the organizing space. We tend to keep secrets and say only the bare minimum while doing all the real information sharing behind the scenes with only a few people able to participate. I reeeaaaalllllllly hate this practice. We need to model transparency behavior amongst ourselves so that we can live up to the moral standards we claim are so important to us. *Yoga as a liberation practice. And it recognizing this, we must also understand that proximity to power is a thing. This idea that licensure will get us closer to the power and financial wealth we perceive that the medical community has (this is not always the case) pushed conversations. While perhaps we will decide as an industry that licensure is the way to go, deconstructing this idea is key for us being clearheaded when we make that decision.*Gravitas is not inherent to us if we do get integrated into conventional medical practice. Being “accepted” by Western medicine will never mean we will be taken seriously. I actually believe we need to do a lot of “inner work” as an industry to believe in our own value first. *We need to talk about license creep. License creep is A common tactic is to broaden the definition or scope of practice of a licensed occupation, a practice we term “license creep.” Licensing legislation ordinarily describes the activities that define the practice of the occupation.*insurance adds a lot of work behind the scenes. I think a lot of people do not understand this, but insurance companies literally hire former nurses to comb through that charts of patients to see if they can get a “gotcha” moment where the healthcare system didn't ask the right questions, do the correct protocol in the correct order, and more. Hospitals also hire those people on the other side to combat this move by insurance companies. If you are a yoga therapist consider if you are ready to take your charting and protocol up about 100 notches. *Residency and Peer-reviewed systems were two if the solutions that Stevie offered, that I love. We do not need to consider other innovative ways for us to keep the status of a self-regulated industry. RESOURCESWorking In Yoga WebsiteWorking In Yoga NewsletterStevie's InstagramFind Taylor Casey

Today we have a fantastic lineup of stories that will take you from the high stakes of space travel to fascinating new scientific discoveries. From SpaceX facing challenges with their Falcon 9 rocket, to scientists measuring a planet-wide electric field for the first time ever, we have so much to explore. We'll also delve into Boom Supersonic's second test flight of their XB-1 aircraft, and wrap up with a look at the detection of water vapor in the atmosphere of an ultra-hot, Saturn-like exoplanet. So grab your telescopes and let's dive in.Highlights:- SpaceX Falcon 9 Grounded: The Federal Aviation Administration has grounded SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket following a failed booster landing. The booster, serial number B1062, was consumed in a dramatic fireball on the deck of the drone ship "A Shortfall of Gravitas." This incident occurred at the tail end of its record-setting 23rd flight. An investigation has been mandated to thoroughly understand the root cause of the mishap.- Polaris Dawn Mission Delays: The Polaris Dawn astronaut mission has been delayed twice in the same week due to a helium leak and recovery weather concerns. The crew remains in quarantine, awaiting clearance for their next launch attempt. Timing for the launch remains uncertain due to the ongoing FAA investigation and other logistical challenges.- Planet-Wide Electric Field Measured: For the first time in history, scientists have successfully measured a planet-wide electric field known as the ambipolar electric field using NASA's Endurance mission. This breakthrough plays a crucial role in atmospheric escape and shapes our ionosphere, offering new insights into planetary atmospheres beyond Earth.- Boom Supersonic's XB-1 Test Flight: Boom Supersonic's XB-1 aircraft successfully completed its second test flight, reaching an altitude of 10,400 ft and achieving a speed of 277 mph. This flight demonstrated the retraction and extension of landing gear for the first time and tested a new digital stability augmentation system.- Water Vapor on Ultra-Hot Exoplanet: Researchers have detected water vapor in the atmosphere of HD 149026 b, an ultra-hot Saturn-like exoplanet located approximately 250 light years away.

Lida is a keynote speaker, author and executive coach empowering global executives, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders to manage how they're perceived and drive them towards ideal opportunities. She has helped thousands of individuals gain a fresh perspective on crafting a personal narrative that tells the right story to the right people about who they are. Her personal mission isn't just about perception—it's about profound transformation, guiding others to leave an indelible mark on the tapestry of human achievement.   Topics covered in the Episode: We matter Executive Presence and Influence Groups of Rules (why, who, how, where) Misalignment of values Brand and Influence Influencers & Social Media Here are three takeaways from the episode:   1.    Executive presence is about: Gravitas but that can't be well-defined, Image which is about how to dress the part, and Communication that are usually scripted messages. That doesn't necessarily lead to influence which is not manipulation or persuasion. This is why we need new rules. 2.    Lida divides the 10 rules into 4 groups. Courage is our “Why” and it's about being real. Credibility means being clear what we stand for. “Who” is now global and includes rules of being of service and inclusive. “How” is not about perfection but being consistent and that builds trust. “Where” is about visibility. 3.   Misalignment of our values can be part of the journey and gets us to where we are (Rule 3) We've all experienced this and we learn from them.

She credits it to her parents, saying, “I cut my teeth as an entrepreneur, because in 1987, at the age of eight—I don't think my mother understood child labor laws—I was the cashier [at their restaurant]. I learned firsthand what it took to create something from nothing.” Lisa's achievements accelerated when she entered high school at only twelve years old and was introduced to Dale Carnegie. “I read [How to Win Friends and Influence People] cover to cover, and it was my formative experience at twelve years old learning what it meant to operate in Western culture, to shake hands and remember people's names and ask questions and be interested. I would not be the person I am today if I hadn't had that experience.”Lisa's experience also involves twelve years with McKinsey and Company, where she sought feedback and grew as a person.
