Podcasts about Hands Off

Hello to you listening in Blue Hill, Maine!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Seth Godin, internationally known thinker, author and strategist posed a question: what's the difference between a protest and a project? [Seth's Blog]Protests let off steam. They organize people who might not show up by creating a moment in time where there's enough opportunity and social pressure that they participate.A protest sends a message.But almost every time, the very things that made a protest appealing mean that it fails to change much. That's because protests are momentary, temporary and urgent. The status quo is good at surviving protests. That's why it's still the status quo.But a PROJECT begins with a protest that ends with, “We'll be back tomorrow, and we're bringing our friends!”A PROJECT is impatiently persistent. It plays a longer game, one that can outlast the status quo.A PROJECT identifies the system and brings a systematic approach to changing that system.PROJECTS can seem boring when seen with a stopwatch, but they're powerful when measured with a calendar.Think about it: Nationwide we've marched at Hands Off in April, No Kings in June, Good Trouble in July, and in a few days Workers Over Billionaires on Labor Day. Other marches continue all over our country. We the People have become a Protest PROJECT!Story Prompt: What happens each time you show up to a protest, share your voice, and come back for more doing your part to upset the status quo? Write that story! And tell it out loud!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Micromanaging burns people out, but being too hands-off leaves them confused. In this episode we talk about how to find the sweet spot by creating Individual Success Plans (ISPs) with your team. We'll walk through the steps for setting clear goals, defining success, and making sure managers and employees know how to support one another. The result? More ownership, more accountability, and better results for everyone.  Here's that Individual Success Plan visual we mentioned in the episode.  Text the word “LEADING” to 66866 to be added to Nash Consulting's monthly newsletter. Just practical management skills and tips. And just once a month. Pinky swear.

Life can feel like a fight you're losing—whether it's stress at work, struggles at home, or battles you don't talk about with anyone else. We're waving the white flag—not because you're weak, but because real strength is knowing when to stop trying to control everything on your own.We're unpacking what it means to surrender the stuff that's holding you back—habits you hate, addictions that won't let go, pride that keeps you from asking for help, or relationships you can't fix by force.If you've ever felt stuck in the same cycle, this message is for you. It's about finding a different way to live, one where you don't have to carry it all by yourself.

Dans cet épisode, je vous parle d'un geste qu'on pense parfois incontournable mais qui mérite vraiment d'être questionné : le fait de mettre les mains pour faire naître les bébés. Vous avez été nombreuses et nombreux à m'interroger sur ce fameux “hands off”, cette manière d'accompagner la naissance sans intervenir manuellement, en laissant le bébé naître par lui-même et en laissant les parents accueillir leur bébé.Je vous raconte comment on pratique ça concrètement à la maison de naissance, pourquoi c'est si puissant — et souvent bien plus physiologique — de laisser faire la nature, quand tout va bien. Je vous partage aussi les réflexes d'expulsion, le cercle de feu, les bénéfices d'un périnée respecté, les mythes autour du soutien périnéal… et l'importance de ne pas faire au cas où, mais seulement si c'est nécessaire. Et je vous rassure : quand une intervention est requise, bien sûr, on sait la faire !On explore aussi ensemble l'idée que nos gestes, même bien intentionnés, peuvent parfois causer plus de mal que de bien, comme dans certains cas de dystocies d'épaule créées par les manœuvres elles-mêmes.Et si on arrêtait de croire que sans nous, ça ne peut pas se faire ? Si on redonnait le pouvoir aux femmes et aux bébés ?C'est ça, le cœur de cet épisode : avoir confiance, laisser faire, et intervenir en conscience.Je vous partage aussi des outils pour discuter de tout ça avec vos équipes : compresses chaudes, projet de naissance, positions physiologiques, accompagnement du partenaire…

Power Up:Amos 9:7 Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir? 8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the LORD. 9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth. 10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us. 11 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old: 12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, saith the LORD that doeth this. 13 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt. 14 And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. 15 And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God., King James Version In this episode, we are seeking the Lord on behalf of several right now issues that we are facing on this earth. We are praying for our children, our parents, our loved ones that are suffering with sicknesses, and we are lifting up our leaders.

[This is a slightly different kind of podcast, a news summary - and will have its own podcast feed eventually]Every Fourth Turning, at least since the founding of America, has been defined by a great war: the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and World War II. When I began this Substack a few years back, the world war we might be fighting would be Iran, Russia, and China against the United States and its allies, including Israel. It made sense then. Not so much now. That was before Putin invaded Ukraine, before October 7th, before the United States government pursued Trump like he was a war criminal, before his attempted assassination, and his second win. Steve Bannon says we're already fighting World War III.Now, as Trump declares “unconditional surrender, " everyone wonders, is this it? Is this our great war?Iran doesn't appear to have an ally in Russia or China at the moment. Trump just met with his security advisers and will address the nation later this afternoon. It does feel a little like the post 9/11 drumbeat for war, and we're all still wary and fearful that it might turn into “regime change” rather than a negotiated peace. We will know what their plans are soon enough. The neocons like Lindsey Graham are prepared to go all the way.Earlier today, Tammy Bruce spoke to the press from the State Department:She mentions that Trump has made the same warning, that Iran can never have a nuke, over 40 times, going back to 2011. Here is that video:Dealing with Iran has been one of the main conflicts between Trump and Barack Obama, so it's easier to see how it started and how it's going. Trump's administration is not the Bush administration. If the 2008 Wall Street meltdown was the crisis that sparked the Fourth Turning and the mission is, as Steve Bannon says, to dismantle the Deep State that took us to the $700 billion bailout, then a big war in the Middle East would fracture the MAGA coalition. For his part, Benjamin Netanyu has said he believes Iran threatens America too, and indeed, they've been trying to assassinate Trump. If there is a graceful way to end the threat without getting into war, that's the path Trump will want to take.A MAGA Divided Cannot Stand.MAGA is split over whether or not to aid Israel in its fight against Iran. Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, and Marjorie Taylor-Greene are locking arms with Dave Smith and Glenn Greenwald to push back against any involvement. Breitbart reports that members of the Squad have now joined Thomas Massie to limit Trump's power on Iran:From Breitbart:While he remains the sole Republican backing such a legislative effort, several top Democrats from the far-left of the Democratic Party, including “Squad” members Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Ilhan Omar (D-MN), have indicated they are signing on to the Massie proposal.Alex Jones is opposed to any help or aid in Israel's war, writing:Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon discussed our involvement, with Bannon urging Trump and MAGA to keep their eye on the ball. He means to go after and dismantle the Deep State:Raheem Kassam sums up the internal conflict well:Ice Raids Paused, Then UnpausedThe Iran conflict is not the only dividing issue in MAGA. There is a split between those who want to support farms and hotels with their large immigrant staff, many of whom are undocumented and have worked for the companies for decades. Versus the opposing side, who insist Trump must not back off even an inch when it comes to mass deportations. Trump listened to them and retreated from his original plan to offer a potential middle ground.Federal Agents Arrest NYC Comptroller & Mayoral Candidate Brad Lander At Immigration CourtAccording to the Left, Lander was arrested for asking to see a warrant. But the truth is, he was arrested for assault, per a Fox report:New York City Comptroller Brad Lander was arrested by Department of Homeland Security(DHS) agents on Tuesday after allegedly assaulting a federal officer. The article quoted a DHS spokesperson,"Our heroic ICE law enforcement officers face a 413% increase in assaults against them—it is wrong that politicians seeking higher office undermine law enforcement safety to get a viral moment, no one is above the law, and if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will face consequences."Letitia James said:"This is profoundly unacceptable. Arresting Comptroller Lander for the simple act of standing up for immigrants and their civil rights is a shocking abuse of power. No one should face fear and intimidation in a courthouse, and this is a grotesque escalation of tensions. The administration's rampant targeting of New Yorkers only makes our communities less safe."The Democrats had four years of the Biden administration to do something about the border. They didn't. Instead, they encouraged millions to flood in, many of them unvetted. Yet, because the migrants represent an oppressed group, the Democrats can't turn away. They are choosing this as one of their base issues because it feeds their ongoing delusion that they are living under a fascist dictator. No Kings vs. Army's 250th AnniversaryThe coverage of the No Kings protest was amplified to look like a grassroots movement, even though it was well-funded and populated by the same people who had protested in the “Hands Off” event not long before. It reached roughly the same number of participants, around 5 million. This will be their playbook for the next five years.The legacy media muted the coverage of the Army's parade, and if they covered it at all, they covered it as militaristic, fascist-like, and compared it to North Korea.Here is a balanced report by Mark Halperin, Sean Spicer, and Dan Turrentine on 2Way:Assassination NationThe Democrats will not let the crisis of the recent shootings of Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota go to waste and are currently calling the shooter the “MAGA assassin.”On the list of targets were 45 Democrats, “including dozens of Minnesota lawmakers and members of Congress such as Rep. Angie Craig, Rep. Ilhan Omar, and Sen. Tina Smith. It also included members of Planned Parenthood, philanthropist MacKenzie Scott, who has donated hundreds of millions of dollars to the organization, and several healthcare centers across the Midwest,” according to Fox9.As usual, the reaction to the shootings, horrific and tragic though they are, is far less than we saw for the assassination of the healthcare CEO Brian Thompson by Luigi Mangione, who has been turned into a martyr and a hero by the Left. Both assassination attempts against President Trump were not treated the same way by the legacy media, and coverage was muted. Again, we turn to 2way to hear balanced coverage.If you think we're living through crazy times, you would be right. Every Fourth Turning feels transformational in good and bad ways. Change is all around us. These are just a few pressure points we are currently hitting as a country.Let me know if you like this format.

Curious how to actually prevent perineal tears during childbirth? In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker breaks down the latest research on three of the most talked-about methods: 1) using warm compresses, 2) provider “hands on” techniques, 3) provider “hands off” techniques, and how these approaches measure up when it comes to protecting your perineum. You'll learn surprising facts, like how a simple warm washcloth can significantly lower your risk of severe tears (and even ease pain!), plus what the evidence really says about whether a provider should help “guard” the perineum or just keep their hands off you during the actual birth.   Content note: Discussion of perineal tears during childbirth, severe tears, and episiotomy.   (02:55) What is the Perineum?

Today's stories: Hands-Free TSA Screening Could Be ComingThe TSA is testing new "hands-off" screening tech that would use virtual reality headsets and air-scanning gloves to scan passengers without physical contact.

Welcome to Gaslit Nation, where the firestorm of corruption meets the firehose of resistance. Terrell Starr of the Black Diplomats Podcast and Substack, recently home from Ukraine–the frontline of showing the world how to stand up and fight, joins Andrea to discuss how good Democrats, and We the People they serve, have a lot of power, if we remain defiant. Senator Chris Van Hollen provided an urgent reminder of this as he warned El Salvador's wannabe strongman Nayib Bukele: the U.S. isn't the only power player in the world, and the international community is watching. This came after Van Hollen was denied access to the Maryland man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, abducted by Trump's agents, wrongfully deported, and sent illegally to El Salvador's notorious gulag. Yet Van Hollen didn't back down. Even with the White House under occupation by a Russian asset, we still wield power.  The energy in the country is shifting. Over 1,500 “Hands Off!” marches just shook the ground in all 50 states, powered by everyone from labor unions to LGBTQ+ activists to veterans' groups. One Southern white man waved a giant American flag with a giant Ukrainian flag at a protest in Virginia, while wearing a MAGA-looking red cap that said: “My Grandpa Killed Nazis.” Trump's approval is slipping. The push for impeachment is gaining steam thanks to the grassroots movement CitizensImpeachment.com. And while spineless Republicans like Lisa Murkowski make excuses instead of calling for the impeachment of a lawless would-be dictator, people are waking up. We're in a fight for accountability, truth, and justice, and we will win. Don't let disillusionment or complacency stop you from building a world that's fair, just, and truly livable for everyone. We're not just witnessing history. We're shaping it. So let's keep pushing. Join a Tesla Takedown protest near you, demand your reps in the House call for impeachment, help good people run for office and primary Do-Nothing Dems, ignore the cynical edge lords, and stay creative and defiant as we shine our collective light.  Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

Thousands of “Hands Off!” protestors took to the street over the weekend. While it's clear they were marching against the actions of Elon Musk and President Donald Trump, what would “hands off” look like? If it's removing these guys from office, why not tell the people with the power to do it?

Markets are still reeling after President Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs last week, and business leaders, including JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, are speaking out. Kai Ryssdal is back from vacation, and he’s not impressed. Get ready for a rant. Plus, the conservative and libertarian groups splitting from Trump over his trade policies. And, our thoughts on last weekend’s nationwide “Hands-Off!” protests.

Is today “Black Monday” after the stocks dipped due to President Trump's tariffs? Glenn explains why he isn't worried. Glenn lays out why U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer is right to say globalism is over: Trump is resetting the Great Reset, but it won't be easy. Glenn reviews a theory that Trump is crashing the global markets on purpose to refinance our debt. Klaus Schwab is stepping down, strangely at the same time that the WEF is facing legal trouble. The media can't decide whether Donald Trump and Elon Musk are best friends or bitter enemies. The stock market went back up after fake news spread that Trump was pausing his tariffs for 90 days. A surprisingly high percentage of people believe they can outrun a horse. Carol Roth joins to debate how small businesses should react to Trump's tariffs. BlazeTV host Dave Landau reviews his new book, “Party of One: A Fuzzy Memoir.” Were this weekend's “Hands Off” protests bigger than the 2009 Tea Party protests? Glenn has a few thoughts.

Hundreds of thousands people across the country spent part of their Saturday at ‘Hands Off' rallies to protest President Donald Trump and his administration. Organizers say there were more than 1,300 rallies scheduled, from Portland, Maine, to San Diego, California. But while progressives and liberals pretty much agree on what we're against, we've been struggling to figure out what, exactly, are we for? And if Democrats are the party that believes governance is good, why aren't the outcomes better? Marc Dunkelman, the author of the new book ‘Why Nothing Works,' joins us to answer some of those questions.And in headlines: A judge ordered the Trump administration to return a man wrongfully deported to El Salvador, a second unvaccinated child in Texas has died of measles, and TikTok lives to see another day in the U.S.Show Notes:Check out Marc's piece – https://tinyurl.com/4mdprz4aSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Stu Burguiere analyzes Saturday's "Hands Off!" protests around the nation and compares the piddling movements to the massive Tea Party protests that rocked the country during the first Obama term. Then, National Review's Dominic Pino joins to explain how Trump's tariff charts came to fruition. And Stu investigates the details of the Signal chat leak that the mainstream media isn't touching.

On this episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” the world responds to President Donald Trump's reciprocal tariffs by claiming that he is an “economic bully.” It's interesting how Democrats like Sen. Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) have flip-flopped over the years, going from fighting against unequal foreign trade to now fighting against Donald Trump's push to set things straight. Over the weekend, thousands of protesters gathered across the country in “Hands Off” rallies to complain about everything Donald Trump is doing to fix the country. Idaho has just passed a bill allowing for the death penalty in severe cases of child sexual abuse. Biological men sweep a women's pool competition and face each other in the finals.

This week, the Geeks wade into a swamp of tech meltdowns, governmental facepalms, and the usual Elon-flavored absurdity. Kicking things off, protesters take their beef with Tesla to the streets while Proud Boys decide this is the hill to vroom and die on. Meanwhile, Elon's privacy prayers have finally been answered—thanks to new FAA rules, he and Tay-Tay can jet around untracked like it's 1999. Oh, and while Earth dodges a killer asteroid, the Moon might be signing up for an unplanned smackdown. Sorry, Luna.In the news, Signal's reputation as the go-to encrypted app takes a nosedive thanks to Republican Senate drama and an Inspector General with receipts. The NSA warned us. Nobody listened. Now it's “SignalGate” season. Elon continues his narcissist Voltron strategy by having xAI buy X (from Elon). Trump, meanwhile, is moonwalking into a $2.3B Truth Social payday, while his meme coin tanks post-tariff tantrum. OpenAI flexes with new AGI funding and 700M AI-generated images (probably 699M of them cursed), while the first therapy chatbot actually helps someone and a brain-voice interface starts sounding a lot like Skynet: The Prequel. Oh, and in shocking news: Trump's war on “information silos” is code for “your personal data is about to be someone else's business.”Media Candy serves up a grab bag from punk docs (Turn It Around) to jungle pulp throwbacks (Tales of the Gold Monkey), and yes—Stephen Collins is still problematic. Apple's prepping new AI-powered health apps, emoji drops, and a food tab for News+, because why not. WhatsApp now wants to be your phone, Alexa+ disappoints, and Zuckerberg tries to make Facebook usable again with a “Friends-only” feed. Meanwhile, Bill Gates pulls a nostalgia flex by dropping OG Microsoft source code like it's a rare vinyl. In other dark corners: Kermit the Frog is now giving commencement speeches, Val Kilmer sadly exits stage left, and Elon fails in his bid to buy a state supreme court. Hands off, Elon. Just… hands off.Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
