En préparant ce thème sur la transmission, il m'a semblé crucial d'explorer le moment de l'accouchement. Mon intuition et mon expérience de mère me disaient que les accouchements sont le théâtre d'une transmission bien plus large que ce qui est évident.Ma conversation avec Habiba Zaid, Sage-femme à l'expérience riche et profonde, a confirmé cette hypothèse.Habiba nous partage son incroyable voyage, de l'Algérie à la France, où elle a transformé sa vision de l'accouchement. Passant d'un cadre ultra-médicalisé à une approche respectueuse de la femme et de la nature, elle redéfinit ce que signifie accompagner la naissance.Avec une authenticité désarmante, Habiba explore des dimensions souvent invisibles de la préparation à la maternité : l'impact psychologique, les défis émotionnels, et le pouvoir de la préparation mentale. Elle met en lumière des vérités essentielles : l'accouchement peut révéler des blessures profondes, bousculer des héritages familiaux, mais aussi devenir un puissant catalyseur de transformation personnelle.Découvrez :Comment la douleur peut devenir une alliée.Le rôle crucial des hormones et de l'environnement dans l'expérience de naissance.Des anecdotes touchantes où des femmes surpassent leurs peurs pour se reconnecter à leur sagesse intérieure.Habiba ouvre aussi la porte sur une étape souvent mise de côté : le post-partum. Elle dévoile des clés pour mieux traverser cette période bouleversante et aider les jeunes parents à naviguer cette transition pleine de défis.Ce n'est pas qu'une conversation sur l'accouchement : c'est une invitation à repenser la naissance comme une opportunité de guérison, de croissance personnelle et de reconnexion profonde avec notre humanité. Un épisode à la croisée de l'intime et de l'universel, riche en émotions et en réflexions.Timeline00:00:00 - 00:05:30 : Introduction et parcours professionnel d'Abiba00:05:31 - 00:12:45 : L'évolution de la pratique de sage-femme : de l'Algérie à la France00:12:46 - 00:20:15 : La maison de naissance CALM : une approche différente de l'accouchement00:20:16 - 00:28:30 : Les protocoles hospitaliers vs l'accompagnement personnalisé00:28:31 - 00:35:45 : La préparation psychique à l'accouchement : au-delà du physique00:35:46 - 00:43:20 : La douleur comme information : changer de perspective00:43:21 - 00:50:10 : L'impact des traumatismes familiaux sur l'accouchement00:50:11 - 00:57:35 : Le rôle des hormones et l'importance de l'environnement00:57:36 - 01:05:20 : L'accouchement à domicile : une option sécurisée en France01:05:21 - 01:12:45 : La formation des sages-femmes : entre médicalisation et accompagnement01:12:46 - 01:20:30 : Le post-partum : faire face aux défis émotionnels01:20:31 - 01:28:15 : La transmission intergénérationnelle : comprendre et guérir01:28:16 - 01:35:00 : Conclusion : l'accouchement comme opportunité de croissance personnelle
With the changes unfolding in the U.S. under the new administration, I wanted to launch this season of Our Womanity with powerful stories of women uplifting women around the world.In this episode, I proudly welcome Habiba Corodhia Mohamed, Founder of WADADIA.The journey of WADADIA began with a defining moment in Habiba C. Mohamed's life. Initially dedicated to veterinary medicine, her path took a transformative turn during a routine visit to a farmer's home. While searching for the farmer, she noticed a small face peeking from behind a house. When she approached, she discovered a four-year-old boy—disabled, tied up, and neglected. His only “crime” was being born disabled and out of wedlock. His teenage mother had been cast out by her family, exposing a deeper issue affecting marginalized women and girls.This encounter sparked Mohamed's commitment to social justice, leading her to transition from veterinary work to founding WADADIA, a nonprofit focused on women's health and empowerment. What started as a small village-level support group for sex workers has grown into a national organization, providing holistic fistula care (6,000+ cases), support for SGBV survivors (1,500+), and services for PLHIV (3,500+).Under Mohamed's leadership, WADADIA is dedicated to restoring dignity through psychosocial support, reproductive health advocacy, and socio-economic empowerment—ensuring that the most vulnerable have the opportunity to thrive.Learn more about Wadadia here.Follow us on social media: Instagram: @drrpope TikTok: @vulvadoctor Twitter: @drrpope LinkedInWant more from Our Womanity?If you enjoyed this episode of Our Womanity, please subscribe, rate, and leave a review.

It's hard to imagine in the western world, but in Nigeria, girls as young as ten are married and four out of every ten girls are married before the age of eighteen, eight out of ten in the northern region. When a girl is forced into marriage, sometimes to a man old enough to be her grandfather, she often cannot continue her education unless her husband allows it, she is likely to live her life illiterate, and she faces a higher risk of death from childbirth due to being neither physically or emotionally ready. In this episode, we speak with Habiba Mohammed and Maryam Albashir, the co-director and deputy director respectively of the Centre for Girls' Education in Nigeria. These women have dedicated their lives to helping girls through educational programs, safe spaces, Gender-based violence prevention, vocational and leadership training and other mentorship programs through the Centre which has helped thousands of girls since it opened in 2007. Until this interview, we did not understand just how far reaching the issue of child marriage was in the Sahel region of Africa, and we were blown away by the incredible impact these women have had in improving the lives of so many girls. We believe that if we want to see more peace in this world, it starts with empowering the girls and women and Habiba and Maryam are showing all of us how.

So I should understand that I am not doing anybody a favor by going to school. I am doing myself. So I need to know that I want to change my life, I will be who I want to be, if I go to school. It can influence the husband that I marry, it can influence the friends that I have, and it will influence the way I want to live my life.” Habiba Mohammed9.24 Maryam Albashir´s Story12.20 A Mother to All13.00 Arranged and non arranged marriages15.00 Going to the communities 16.31 “At the safe spaces we encourage the girls to go back home and discuss what they are learning in the safe spaces to their mothers and their aunties and their other siblings. So this helped us to get very acceptance in the communities.” Habiba Mohammed16.57 Number of girls they have helped educate20.00 Things the girls learn at the safe spaces20.30 “What we do at the safe spaces is also to empower her, for her to know her self worth, for her to be able to identify what she wants to become in life. Some of these girls, depending on the category of project that we enroll them into, we empower them with vocational skills. So along the line, if they start earning an income it gives them an upperhand in their homes, it gives them a voice to say who they want to be or what they want to become in life.” Maryam Albashir23.00 1st story of success, story of Sakina27.30 Favorite part of their job29.50 Their message to the world “Every girl, wherever she is, needs an education. And she needs to be empowered and she needs to be who she wants to be in life. So if we are educated and we are given that opportunity the sky is not our limit, the sky will be our starting point.” Habiba Mohammed

Les femmes font partie des premières victimes du changement climatique, et l'intensification du réchauffement de la planète vient souvent bouleverser leur vie. C'est le cas de nombreuses d'entre elles sur l'île d'Ukerewe, sur le lac Victoria, au nord de la Tanzanie. À cause de la montée des eaux et de la diminution de la population de poissons dans les eaux du lac, certains maris pêcheurs décident donc d'abandonner définitivement leur famille pour trouver plus de poissons et de revenus ailleurs, laissant femme et enfants dans une extrême précarité. C'est un groupe de femmes enjouées qui se retrouve sur un lopin de terre asséchée, entouré de quelques arbres, à Murutunguru, au nord de l'île d'Ukerewe. Parmi elles, Sarah Bigambo, 28 ans et mère de six enfants. En 2021, alors qu'elle était enceinte, son mari pêcheur lui a annoncé qu'il partait : « Quand il est parti, il a dit qu'il avait trouvé un travail sur l'île. Il m'a promis d'envoyer de l'argent et il allait et venait. Mais maintenant, il est parti pour de bon. »Ce qui a causé le départ de son mari, c'est le manque de poissons. Alors qu'il était auparavant possible d'en pêcher 500 kilos par jour, il est désormais souvent difficile d'en ramener cinq. Utilisation de filets aux mailles trop petites et intensification des pluies liée au changement climatique expliquent cette chute brutale. Des faits confirmés par Joyce Komanya, du Centre juridique et des droits de l'homme à Dar es Salam et auteure d'un rapport sur le sujet :« Depuis que nous avons commencé à documenter et observer le changement de modèle climatique, nous avons réalisé qu'il pourrait s'agir du changement climatique. Les gens ont vécu dans cette zone et pêché depuis très longtemps, mais nous n'avons jamais vu de tels changements comme ceux actuels. »À lire aussiTanzanie: la montée des eaux du lac Victoria menace l'île d'Ukerewe [1/3]« Nous continuons à nous battre pour nos enfants »Comme souvent, les femmes sont les premières victimes du changement climatique. Comme Habiba, 47 ans, dont le mari pêcheur a, lui aussi, quitté le foyer : « C'est tellement difficile de trouver de la nourriture. La situation est très mauvaise. Les enfants vont à l'école sans rien manger de la journée, ils reviennent sans énergie. Je leur dis de rester forts, mais c'est très dur. Je ne sais pas où est leur père, il est parti sans même dire au revoir. Nous, les femmes, nous ne pouvons pas juste abandonner nos familles. Nous continuons à nous battre pour nos enfants. »Habiba et Sarah trouvent du soutien auprès du groupe de femmes Sauti Ya wanawake (« La voix des femmes »), une ONG locale. Ensemble, elles fabriquent du savon qu'elles revendent ensuite. Un maigre revenu pour ces femmes d'Ukerewe, dont l'avenir et celui de leurs enfants restent plus qu'incertain.À lire aussiChangement climatique: les flamants roses d'Afrique désormais en danger

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Spiro - New TB charity raising seed funds, published by Habiba Banu on November 17, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Summary We (Habiba Banu and Roxanne Heston) have launched Spiro, a new TB screening and prevention charity focused on children. Our website is here. We are fundraising $198,000 for our first year. We're currently reaching out to people in the EA network. So far we have between 20%-50% of our budget promised and fundraising is currently one of the main things we're focusing on. The major components of our first year budget are co-founder time, country visits, and delivery of a pilot program, which aims to do household-level TB screening and provision of preventative medication. We think that this project has a lot of promise: Tuberculosis has a huge global burden, killing 1.3 million people every year, and is disproportionately neglected and fatal in young children. The evidence for preventative treatment is robust and household programs are promising, yet few high-burden countries have scaled up this intervention. Modeling by Charity Entrepreneurship and by academics indicate that this can be competitive with the best GiveWell-recommended charities. If we don't manage to raise at least half of our target budget by the beginning of December 2023 then we'll switch from our intended focus for the next month from program planning to additional fundraising. This will push out our timelines for getting to the useful work. If we don't manage to raise our full target budget by the end of 2023 then we'll scale back our ambitions in the immediate term, until we put additional time into fundraising a few months later. The lower budget will also limit the size of our proof-of-concept effort since we and our government partners will need to scale back work to the available funds. You can donate via Giving What We Can's fund for charities incubated through Charity Entrepreneurship. Please also email habiba.banu@spiro.ngo letting us know how much you have donated so that we can identify the funds and allocate them to Spiro. Who are we? Spiro is co-founded by Habiba Banu and Roxanne Heston. Habiba worked for the last three years at 80,000 Hours and before that as Senior Administrator at the Future of Humanity Institute and the Global Priorities Institute. Her background is working as a consultant at PwC with government and non-profit clients. Rox has worked for the last few years on international AI policy in the U.S. Government and at think tanks. She has worked with and for various EA organizations including the Centre for Effective Altruism, the Future of Humanity Institute, Open Philanthropy and the Lead Exposure Elimination Project. We have received Charity Entrepreneurship support so far: Charity Entrepreneurship's research team did the initial research into this idea and shared their work with us. Habiba went through Charity Entrepreneurship's Incubator Programme earlier this year. Rox started working with Habiba to find an idea together about halfway through the program. Charity Entrepreneurship has provided stipend funding, advice, and operational support (e.g. website design). It will continue to provide mentorship from its leadership team and a fiscal sponsorship arrangement. What are we going to do? Spiro will implement sustainable household screening programs in low- and lower-middle income countries. Spiro aims to curb infections and save lives of children in regions with high burdens of tuberculosis by identifying, screening, and treating household contacts of people living with TB. We will initially establish a proof of concept in one region, working closely with the government TB program. We will then aim to scale nationally, with funding from the Global Fund, and expand to other countries. Currently, we are planning a visit to Uganda to shadow e...

In this episode I am joined by Habiba @habibareadsbooks to discuss the Pride & Prejudices Mrs. Bennet. A character who indeed has a multifaceted personality that elicits a range of emotions from readers. In this episode we explore her character in more detail, acknowledging both her humorous aspects and the challenges she faces as a mother of five unmarried daughters. We also look at the ways in which Mrs. Bennet is similar to some South Asian Mums and Grans, standing as a true matriarch at times. Habiba touches on her own experiences, and how Pride and Prejudice relates closely to both her Pakistani traditions and Desi culture as a whole.

Mualima Habiba - Quran For Thought by Radio Islam
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: If you'd like to do something about sexual misconduct and don't know what to do., published by Habiba on April 30, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Photo by Andrew Moca Following on from posts from women in the community discussing recent events (like this and this) I wanted to provide some specific suggestions for people who want to do something about sexual misconduct and harassment in EA but don't know where to start. If you find the word useful, you could consider this post a guide to being an “ally” I was inspired to write this after some of my male friends asked what they could do to help and/or were pretty surprised by how well the things they did went down. But it's hopefully useful advice for everyone, myself included. I've written this most with sexual harassment in mind. However, some of the sections are applicable in thinking about sexual assault, violence or even rape. Caveats: The post is not attempting to persuade anyone who isn't already convinced that it's worth taking action - I'll leave that to other posts. It's just my take on what might be helpful to do Navigating this stuff is tricky - what makes most sense for you to do is going to be very context dependent My thoughts are fairly focused on the culture and norms I'm most familiar with (I'm a woman of colour, from the UK) Summary Remember we're all within the system - One useful frame can be thinking about what actions are the “paths of least resistance” in social situations that lead to harm, and trying to not take those ourselves as a way of trying to change them Act with compassion - In general act as if people in the discussion have a decent chance of having been personally affected. And be extra compassionate as a result. Learn about the issue - You can still be really helpful even if you don't feel like a world expert on the topic. That said, do carry on learning more, including beyond the EA community, especially before suggesting improvements. This can be either by yourself (there's some suggestions at the end) or with others (e.g. start a discussion group) Listen to community members empathetically - Be an empathetic listener to people in discussions about sexual misconduct. Both reactively when they raise things with you and proactively by reaching out to people who might feel affected. Consider pausing discussing your opinions and solutions with someone who is upset at least until you've done the listening bit first. Support people who tell you about their experience - Listen to and carry on being supportive to someone who shares a story with you about an experience they had. Respect their preferences on confidentiality and autonomy over what to do next. And also look after yourself. Reflect on your own behaviour - Spend a little time reflecting on your own past behaviour and if there is anything you want to do about past actions or change for the future. Check in with someone else if so. This is tough but courageous to do. Interject when you see harmful behaviour - Whether it's happening online or in person interject as an active bystander. Challenge the behaviour and/or look out for the person affected Take action about people who have harmed others - Take responsibility for doing something about people you interact with who have harmed others, but handle this with care. Consult with friends / experts to work out what to do. Feel free to maintain your own distance even if behaviour isn't bad enough to face professional repercussions Participate in the discussion - When there is community wide discussion about issues like sexual misconduct participate by signal boosting those affected and contributing your own takes Contribute to or start community wide initiatives - Contribute to existing projects in the EA space, take actions within your local EA group or workplace and conside...

In this International Women's Day special episode, MBM's Mariyam Haider is in conversation with the team at LedBy Foundation - India's first leadership incubator that focuses on the professional development of Muslim women. Deepanjali Lahiri is the Chief Operating Officer and Fatema Chiba is the Program Manager at LedBy, which has been running training, mentoring programmes and fellowships to support young Muslim women in India enter entrepreneurial and corporate workspaces. In this episode, Deepanjali and Fatema talk about their personal and professional experiences that have shaped their understanding of the challenges that Muslim women face. Fatema highlights what growing up as the only Muslim student felt like and how working with an educational non-profit enabled a closer understanding of the way gender, caste and class barriers impact students' aspirations and professional outlooks. Deepanjali shares how she had not hired a single Muslim woman candidate in her years of working across IT, retail, and FMCG sectors and the differences between multinationals and Indian companies when it comes to diversity, equity and inclusion. We also discuss the current state of Muslim women participation within India's formal and informal sectors, the challenges that structural inequities impose on women and how diverse are the career needs and visions for Muslim women in urban versus rural parts. This MBM episode also offers a glimpse of the long journey that Indian workplaces have to make towards religious diversity, inclusion and representation across all levels of management and leadership. Finally, we talk about Seattle becoming the first American city to add caste to its anti-discrimination laws and if there is hope for similar changes within Indian workspaces in the coming times. Notes related to the conversationThe Hiring Bias Study conducted by LedBy Foundation assessed Muslim women employment in entry-level positions. Main findings as reported in the study:* ‘The net discrimination rate was 47.1%, as the Hindu woman profile (Priyanka Sharma) received 208 positive responses, while the Muslim woman profile (Habiba Ali) received half of that (103). This was evident across industries.* Recruiters were more cordial to the Hindu candidate; 41.3% of the recruiters had connected with Priyanka over phone calls, while only 12.6% spoke with Habiba over a call.* North India had a lower discrimination rate (40%) compared to jobs located in West (59%) and South India (60%).'If you find this or any past episode interesting, please do share it with your friends, family and social groups, and rate or review it wherever you listen to podcasts.

Chiara Ingrao"Il resto è silenzio"Baldini+Castoldihttps://baldinicastoldi.itMa perché te la sei presa in casa? Nei giorni della guerra in Libano, Sara, interprete solitaria e introversa, sente per caso queste parole su un autobus e viene aggredita dai ricordi: di quando, nei mesi difficili dopo l'abbandono del marito, viveva con lei Musnida, una collega fuggita da Sarajevo. Ma perché te la sei presa in casa? le ripeteva continuamente sua sorella, allora.Anche Musnida, aveva una sorella. Come quella di Sara, era una sorella affascinante, molto più bella e più forte di lei. Un'eroina, uccisa mentre tentava di recuperare il corpo di uno dei fratelli, morti combattendo su fronti opposti. L'Antigone di Sarajevo, avevano scritto di lei i giornali, gonfi di retorica. Musnida, invece, era un soggetto imbarazzante: una sorella opaca, come la Ismene di Sofocle.Eppure anche Ismene ha una sua verità. Una voce antica, che si intrufola a tratti nei goffi tentativi di Sara di decifrare i misteri di Musnida, della sua famiglia, della sua terra; mentre la convivenza si prolunga, fra vicinanza e insofferenza, fra mute nausee e rumorosi congressi, fra l'imbarazzante invadenza della sorella di Sara e l'irritante ticchettio di un computer, dietro una porta chiusa.Nel faticoso dipanarsi di vita quotidiana e grovigli esistenziali irrisolti, fra le tre coppie di sorelle (quella di quaggiù, quella di laggiù, quella del Mito) rimbalzano come in un gioco di specchi gli interrogativi dell'oggi: le guerre infinite, le barriere che frantumano le identità e la vita, la paura dell'Altro che fa da scudo alla paura di ascoltare noi stessi.Chiara Ingrao, scrittrice e animatrice culturale nelle scuole, ha lavorato come sindacalista, interprete, parlamentare, programmista radio, consulente su diritti delle donne e diritti umani. È impegnata da anni nel femminismo, nel pacifismo, nel movimento anti-razzista. Ha scritto due romanzi (Il resto è silenzio e Dita di dama), due libri per bambini/e (Habiba la Magica e Mal di paura), articoli e saggi (alcuni raccolti in Oltre il ponte – Pensieri di una femminista di frontiera). In Soltanto una vita ha raccontato le esperienze e pubblicato gli scritti di sua madre, Laura Lombardo Radice; in Salaam Shalom il suo percorso pacifista in Medio Oriente e altrove. È sposata con Paolo Franco e ha due figlie, due figliocci e tre nipoti.https://chiaraingrao.itIL POSTO DELLE PAROLEAscoltare fa Pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.itQuesto show fa parte del network Spreaker Prime.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: A personal response to Nick Bostrom's "Apology for an Old Email", published by Habiba on January 12, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. On 9th January 2023, Nick Bostrom posted this apology for an email he sent on the Extropians listserv in the 90s. On 11th January 2023, Anders Sandberg linked to it on Bostrom's behalf in this twitter thread. I recommend you read those first as I don't summarise or explain the contents below. This is my personal response to reading Bostrom's apology and email and is (bar some minor changes) a cross-post of my tweet thread. As a meta-point I would like to flag that I do find discussion of the topic to be incredibly stressful. I have almost never posted here on the forum about even straightforward things. And debating race and IQ is something I find exceptionally emotionally tough. So I don't plan to participate in any extensive debates in the comments, hope that you understand why. My thoughts In my view, Bostrom's email would have been offensive in the 90s and it is offensive now, for good reason. His apology fails badly to fully take responsibility or display an understanding of the harm the views expressed represent. I think that being deliberately offensive to make a point is gross. When people in positions of privilege use or mention slurs lightly they are able to do so because they are blinkered to the lived experience of others and disengaged from empathy with those different to them. Note that I'm not generally in the business of picking people apart for small one-off past infractions. But I do think it would be virtuous to apologise for and to truly take responsibility for one's past actions. Bostrom's apology is defensively couched - emphasising the age of the email, what others wrote on the listserv, that it would be best forgotten, that fear that people might smear him. I think that is cowardly and shows a disappointing lack of ownership of his actions. But I don't just care about the inclusion of a slur in the email. I am deeply uncomfortable with a discussion of race and intelligence failing to acknowledge the historical context of the ideas' origin and the harm they can and have caused. To be clear, I think the view Bostrom expressed was wrong, and wrong in a harmful and reckless way. When you argue a point like this without addressing the context of how those ideas came about you will likely be missing something important we should learn from history and be badly wrong. When you are willfully disengaged from the empathy that underlies common decency you will have a massive blindspot in your reasoning and you will likely be badly wrong. I do not think that there is only one acceptable way to express thoughts about this issue, nor do I think this issue could never be discussed sensitively. And I do think it is okay for people to sometimes say things online that I think are plain wrong. But we all know that this issue is high stakes - ideas about racial superiority in the UK, America, and Germany led to some of the worst atrocities of the 20th century. And eugenists historically espoused utterly wrong views on race and intelligence wearing the guise of science. There were c.60,000 sterilisations in US eugenics programmes - focused on women of colour. Including those who were young, poor, victims of sexual abuse, labelled “feeble minded” (allegedly inherited via a recessive gene), and had their fates decided by committees of white men. Hitler was a fan of eugenicist Madison Grant. And at the Nuremberg trials, the Nazi defendants entered Grant's book - The Passing of the Great Race - in their defence tracing the lineage of their genocidal ideas to a popular American author. And we know now there are very good reasons to think that scores on IQ tests are affected by cultural factors, that global IQ databases are poor sour...

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Podcast: The Left and Effective Altruism with Habiba Islam, published by Garrison on October 27, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. I recently rebooted my interview podcast, The Most Interesting People I Know (found wherever you find podcasts). I focus on EA and left-wing guests, and have been pretty involved in both communities for the last 5 years. Some example guests: Rutger Bregman, Leah Garcés, Lewis Bollard, Spencer Greenberg, Nathan Robinson, Malaika Jabali, Emily Bazelon, David Shor, and Eric Levitz. I just released a long conversation with Habiba Islam, an 80K career advisor and lefty, about the relationship between EA and the left. This is not an attempt to paper over differences between the two communities, or pretend that EA is more left-wing than it is. Instead, I tried to give an accurate description of both communities, where they are in hidden agreement, where they actually disagree, and what each can learn from the other. Habiba is so sharp and thoughtful throughout the conversation. We're very lucky to have her! I hope this could be a good reference text as well as an onboarding ramp for leftists who might be open to EA. I think there's a real gap in the EA media-verse on the intersection of left-wing politics and EA, and we're almost certainly missing out on some great people and perspectives who would be into EA if they were presented with the right arguments and framing. I have no delusions that all leftists would be into EA if they only understood it better, but I think there are tons of bad-faith criticisms and genuine misunderstandings that we could better address. I think we can have a healthier and more productive relationship with the left.

One of 80,000 Hours' main services is our free one-on-one careers advising, which we provide to around 1,000 people a year. Today we speak to two of our advisors, who have each spoken to hundreds of people - including many regular listeners to this show - about how they might be able to do more good while also having a highly motivating career.
