There are seasons of homeschooling when everything feels heavier than usual. The holidays are busy, the semester is winding down, medical needs don't pause, and ADHD brains—ours and our kids'—are already stretched thin.In this episode, I share how movie schooling has supported our family for years as a way to keep learning connected, meaningful, and low-pressure. I talk about how learning through stories—books, movies, and shared conversation—helps children understand history, culture, and character at a deeper level, and why this approach works especially well for ADHD and overwhelmed brains.I also share simple movie ideas you can use right away, how this kind of learning can still count for homeschooling (even in a portfolio state), and why learning through connection often sticks longer than worksheets ever could.If you're tired, sick, stretched thin, or quietly wondering how to keep learning going without burning out, this episode is meant to feel like a gentle place to land.

What does it really mean to be yourself at work without hiding, performing, or shrinking to fit expectations? In this Finding Brave conversation, we explore why authentic presence is not a soft skill or a personal indulgence, but a powerful leadership practice that builds trust, connection, and impact in today's fast-moving, emotionally complex workplaces.   Today's inspiring guest is Claude Silver, the world's first Chief Heart Officer at VaynerX, where she partners with CEO Gary Vaynerchuk to shape culture and leadership at scale. A sought-after speaker and the author of Be Yourself at Work: The Groundbreaking Power of Showing Up, Standing Out, and Leading from the Heart, Claude brings a deeply human lens to leadership that is grounded in emotional intelligence, courage, and self-awareness. Her work challenges the outdated belief that professionalism requires emotional distance or self-erasure. In this wide-ranging and deeply personal discussion, Claude shares formative stories from her own life that shaped her understanding of authentic presence. Together, Kathy and Claude unpack what authenticity looks like in real moments at work, from navigating difficult conversations to noticing the inner "song" that shapes how we show up. Claude breaks down her three emotional pillars, namely, emotional optimism, emotional bravery, and emotional efficiency, and explains how emotions can guide more grounded and courageous leadership. The episode also explores why leading with heart matters more than ever in an AI-driven, always-on world, and how taking up space, asking for what you need, and speaking honestly can transform both individual careers and workplace cultures. Listen in and consider what might shift if you gave yourself permission today to be fully seen and fully heard at work!   Key Highlights From This Episode: Introducing Claude Silver and what's missing from how we talk about authenticity. [00:59] Why being authentic is a privilege and the power of knowing yourself. [06:40] How early experiences with dyslexia shaped Claude's self-image and personal growth. [10:18] A pivotal Outward Bound moment that revealed the power of changing the "song" in your head. [13:56] [18:05] What authentic presence really looks like beyond theory and performative professionalism. [23:27] Claude's three pillars: emotional optimism, emotional bravery, and emotional efficiency. [30:47] Leading with heart in an AI-driven world that often feels rushed, disconnected, or dehumanizing. Why taking up space, speaking honestly, and being fully human changes work and culture.

There are no kids around, maybe no dog around, it's just you spacing out brushing your teeth. To me, that is very indicative of who we are, when we are our real selves." — Claude Silver [0:04:22] "We are human, and this is the experience we're having. So why not be open about that?" — Claude Silver [0:05:20] "I think that it is an enormous privilege to get to know yourself. [And it] is something that is our birthright." — Claude Silver [0:08:48] "I don't need to see you as anything other than you are, because who you are is who I want to get to know. Who you are is who I'm going to hold space for. I don't want you to act like a PhD or pretend that you have a following of a million people on social media." — Claude Silver [0:18:37] "Emotions are guides. Emotions are data. It is not who we are." — Claude Silver [0:23:53] "Ask questions. Add your two cents. If you're in the room, be big in the room. Share something. You have an idea that no one else has mentioned. I'm sure of it." — Claude Silver [0:34:03]   Watch our Finding Brave episodes on YouTube! Don't forget – you can experience each Finding Brave episode in both audio and video formats!

This week on Hope Talks, we welcome singer, songwriter, comedian, and storyteller Mark Lowry—best known for writing the beloved Christmas song “Mary, Did You Know?” and for his years with the Gaither Vocal Band.  In this warm and funny Christmas conversation, Mark shares his hope story, beginning with a devastating car accident that left him with multiple broken bones and unexpectedly launched his journey as a songwriter.

Mark reflects on how he stepped into music and comedy, how “Mary, Did You Know?” was born, and why joy and humor matter so deeply in the Christian life. He also tells the stories behind several songs on his latest album, There Is Hope, offering an encouraging reminder that God is near, faithful, and working even when life feels broken.  Subscribe to the podcast and tune in each week as Haley and Dustin share with you what the Bible says about real-life issues with compassion, warmth, and wit.   So you have every reason for hope, for every challenge in life.

As choir directors prepare a joint Christmas-Hanukkah service, old rivals Nikki and Jake must overcome their competition to unite their communities through song.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR OY TO THE WORLD!December 14 2025 | Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF OY TO THE WORLD!Brooke D'Orsay as NikkiJake Epstein as JakeBRAN'S OY TO THE WORLD! SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off in high school with two rival singers, Nikki and Jake. They're always trying to outdo each other. But when Nikki goes up to sing, her voice cracks — totally embarrassing.Cut to the present day. Nikki is helping her dad at his church and working as the choir director, while Jake works at a music shop. His family's synagogue is right across the street from her family's church, and despite the rivalry, the families are friendly with each other.We learn that the synagogue is really struggling. The heat isn't working and, to make matters worse, a pipe bursts. When Jake finds out that his grandma slipped on the water while checking on the damage, he rushes home from the city. With Hanukkah starting in two days, no one knows what they're going to do.Jake goes to inspect the damage and spots Nikki across the street. He heads over, and the two immediately start bickering — clearly, nothing has changed.The church offers to let the synagogue use its space. Jake agrees to help with his dad's kids' choir, while Nikki helps with her dad's choir. Naturally, they turn everything into a competition, just like when they were kids. They get so competitive that the kids stop having fun and many quit altogether.They're encouraged to join forces and form one “super choir” for a joint service. As they start spending more time together, sparks fly. Jake helps Nikki work through her fear of singing in public, and they almost kiss — until he's interrupted by a phone call. His band's music is really taking off in the city.Soon after, Jake learns that a record label wants to meet with him. He has to go, even though it means missing the big performance. At first, Nikki asks him not to leave because she's nervous about singing again, but she ultimately encourages him to go. It's his dream.At the performance, Nikki's voice cracks at first — but she powers through. Just when it matters most, Jake shows up, and they sing together.Afterward, Jake tells her the meeting was brief: the label wants to sign them and send them on tour. But he's worked out a plan so he won't be gone for long stretches — he'll move back home and commute to the city for recording.They finally kiss.

Few yacht rock hits of the 70s have endured as well as Player's 1977 classic "Baby Come Back." While they had a few other hits, they've been completely overshadowed by this monolith. What you may not be as aware of is the vast songwriting career of frontman Peter Beckett. Remember "Twist of Fate" by Olivia Newton-John? That was Peter. Or "Dare to Fall in Love" by Brent Bourgeois? Also Peter. There's also been the Temptations, Commodores, Survivor, Heart. Grace Slick, and Janet and Jermaine Jackson. There was even a stint in Little River Band.

The late world-renowned primatologist Professor Frans de Waal (1948-2024) explores the nature of sex and gender among our cousins the apes, and how gender diversity is a common and pervasive potential on nature's masculine-feminine continuum. In the quest to overcome human gender inequality, he suggests that our focus needs to be on the inequality. Featuring The late Frans B. M. de Waal, Ph.D., was a Dutch/American biologist and primatologist widely renowned for his work on the behavior and social intelligence of primates. C. H.

Send us a textOne thing I must say about Brian and every guest who has graced me with their time over the years is...I've never once had to ask them to drop any pretense and be their authentic selves and that is what seems to catch my listener's interest and draw them in. When people just "be who they are" and tell the stories that impacted them both personally and professionally. I appreciate Brian for having the courage to join me, even when he told me he wasn't sure he could.Across the span of about 30 years he served both on a national level, in the US Navy, and then at home with the Pima County Sheriff's Department. Heart pounding chases, engulfed family homes, and a mix of all the calls and situations he handled while trying to keep the community safe and the bad guys behind bars.He told me that he wanted to neatly capture his career in three episodes (1. Patrol, 2. K9, and 3. Sergeanthood) and I'm totally good with that. Here's episode one, about his patrol years.Show him some love and enjoy the episode. I'd love to hear your thoughts and insights.Come see me on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/choir.practice.94 or on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/cp_sfaf/

The next name of God that appears in Scripture is Adonai. It means: The Lord; My Great Lord God is our total authority. Adonai is the name often used in place of Yahweh, because YHWH was too sacred a name to speak. Recognizing God as Adonai is to recognize our need to submit to Him. He is the Master and owner of all things. We are His servant stewards.    Kay Arther says: "The lordship of God means His total possession of me and my total submission to Him."

I discuss the thumbnail sketches of US military failure since the end of WWI and try to elucidate some of the reasons for the failure and the existential threat this cavalcade of calamities is to 21st century America if the ship of state doesn't reverse course. This a a dangerous time for America to continue its bad habits of wars of choice and allowing its intelligence organizations and their cutout mischief-makers to poke the bear and create black swan events out of whole cloth. America boasts a magnificent 20th century war machine not fit for purpose for 21st century peer warfare. The crossroads is chock-full of landmines.

Why Become a Disciple Maker: Insights from Jim Putman, Dr. Coleman, and More In this video, leaders in the disciple making movement participate in a forum to discuss the essential question: why become a disciple maker? Jim Putman opens with a deep dive into the motives behind disciple making and challenges the conventional view of tying disciple-making to church growth. Instead, he emphasizes the importance of a more profound, relational approach where the focus is on spiritual maturity and following Christ wholeheartedly, even when it might not lead to church growth. The discussion extends into practical insights on creating a culture of disciple-making, highlighting the significance of transparency and intentionality in relationships. Prominent voices like Bill Hull, Dr. Robert Coleman, and Daniel Im contribute their perspectives. Bill Hull underscores the necessity of investing in the right people, while Dr. Coleman points out the simplicity of following Jesus' example. Ariana Rimsson shares her personal experiences and advice on how to take intentional steps to disciple others, even if one has never been discipled themselves. The forum also includes a celebration of disciple-making giants, with Bill Hull receiving the Robert Coleman Disciple Maker Award for his lifetime commitment to Jesus' methods. Key themes covered include the importance of relational disciple-making, the challenges of being authentic and transparent, and the critical role of disciple-makers in a world increasingly obsessed with self. This video aims to inspire pastors and ministry leaders to embrace the call to make disciples deeply and authentically, replicating the life-on-life model exemplified by Jesus.  Check out Discipleship.org for resources on disciple-making: https://discipleship.org/resources/  Key Takeaways  00:00 Introduction: The Importance of Disciple Making 07:40 The Great Commission and Making Disciples 09:45 Personal Stories and Testimonies 14:55 The Need for Relational Discipleship 21:44 Practical Takeaways and Reflections 36:43 The Heart of Jesus' Ministry 37:25 Motives in Discipleship 39:54 Creating a Culture of Disciple Making 43:52 Life-on-Life Discipleship 48:56 Honesty and Transparency in Discipleship 53:23 The Disciple Maker Assessment 01:11:07 Closing Remarks and Reflections Stay Informed - Get our newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hPViAr Title: Why Become a Disciple Maker | Jim Putman See below for a longer description: In Jim Putman's enlightening speech, he delves deep into the essential question, "Why become a disciple maker?" He challenges the audience by reframing the question to "Why wouldn't you be a disciple maker?" Putman emphasizes that disciple making should not be viewed as merely a church growth strategy but as a profound spiritual calling rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ. He addresses the popular misconception that disciple making guarantees church growth, clarifying that the true essence is spiritual maturity and obedience to Christ, which may not always align with numerical growth. Putman underscores the reality that the gospel's message of self-denial and daily cross-bearing is often unpopular in American culture, leading to a potential decline in church attendance when it's preached authentically. He cautions that many churchgoers might leave when confronted with the true demands of discipleship, particularly those who attend church for superficial reasons like seeking personal gain or social approval. A significant portion of his talk focuses on the characteristics of a mature disciple. Putman describes a mature disciple as someone continually growing in obedience and being transformed to resemble Jesus Christ. This transformation involves loving God with all one's heart, soul, mind, and strength, and loving one's neighbor as oneself. He critiques the shallow understanding of discipleship that equates it to mere knowledge accumulation, explaining that true discipleship is relational and rooted in love. Moreover, Putman discusses the importance of having a common language and definition within disciple making movements, referencing Jesus' invitation in Matthew 4:19 to "Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." He explains that disciple makers are those who follow Jesus, are changed by Jesus, and commit to Jesus' mission. This mission includes evangelizing, teaching, and nurturing new disciples to maturity so they, in turn, can make disciples. Putman shares a personal anecdote about his son, illustrating the profound impact someone can make by reaching out to love and disciple others. In conclusion, Putman appeals to the audience's sense of love and obedience to God as the primary motives for making disciples. He discards the notion of doing it for rewards or recognition, centering the practice in genuine care for others' spiritual well-being and growth in Christ.

What Am I?I am God's Son, complete and healed and whole, shining in the reflection of His Love. In me is His creation sanctified and guaranteed eternal life. In me is love perfected, fear impossible, and joy established without opposite. I am the holy home of God Himself. I am the Heaven where His Love resides. I am His holy Sinlessness Itself, for in my purity abides His Own.Our use for words is almost over now. Yet in the final days of this one year we gave to God together, you and I, we found a single purpose that we shared. And thus you joined with me, so what I am are you as well. The truth of what we are is not for words to speak of nor describe. Yet we can realize our function here, and words can speak of this and teach it, too, if we exemplify the words in us.We are the bringers of salvation. We accept our part as saviors of the world, which through our joint forgiveness is redeemed. And this, our gift, is therefore given us. We look on everyone as brother, and perceive all things as kindly and as good. We do not seek a function that is past the gate of Heaven. Knowledge will return when we have done our part. We are concerned only with giving welcome to the truth.Ours are the eyes through which Christ's vision sees a world redeemed from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears that hear the Voice for God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds that join together as we bless the world. And from the oneness that we have attained we call to all our brothers, asking them to share our peace and consummate our joy.We are the holy messengers of God who speak for Him, and carrying His Word to everyone whom He has sent to us, we learn that it is written on our hearts. And thus our minds are changed about the aim for which we came, and which we seek to serve. We bring glad tidings to the Son of God, who thought he suffered. Now is he redeemed. And as he sees the gate of Heaven stand open before him, he will enter in and disappear into the Heart of God.LESSON 351My Sinless Brother Is My Guide To Peace.My Sinful Brother Is My Guide To Pain.And Which I Choose To See I Will Behold.Who is my brother but Your holy Son? And if I see him sinful I proclaim myself a sinner, not a Son of God; alone and friendless in a fearful world. Yet this perception is a choice I make, and can relinquish. I can also see my brother sinless, as Your holy Son. And with this choice I see my sinlessness, my everlasting Comforter and Friend beside me, and my way secure and clear. Choose, then, for me, my Father, through Your Voice. For He alone gives judgment in Your Name.- Jesus Christ in ACIm

A persecutor becomes a herald of grace, and the catalyst for change was not better teaching but a blazing revelation of Jesus Christ. We walk through Paul's story—from Saul's elite training and fierce zeal to the Light on the Damascus road—and then step into the silence of Arabia, where God dismantled a lifetime of tradition and rebuilt a life in the Spirit. Along the way, we explore what wilderness can do for us: expose idols, retrain the conscience through meditation, and make room for a new identity that cannot coexist with the old.I share how surrender gets tangible when love confronts what we cling to; for me it was getting rid of comics because it held a piece of my heart. That concrete act set up a deeper lesson in Romans 8: the law is holy, but we are weak; the Spirit is present, and He is strong. We trace the move from schoolmaster to sonship, from duty to delight, and from obligation to the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus. If you've ever tried to white-knuckle your way into holiness, you'll hear why revelation, repentance, and the Spirit's indwelling presence are the nonnegotiables of real transformation.You'll leave with a simple framework to practice today: seek revelation in Scripture, embrace your Arabia of quiet and wrestling, meditate to train your conscience, walk by the Spirit's guidance, and act against your idols with decisive steps. This is a candid, practical, and hope-filled invitation to become who God calls you to be—free, focused, and led by His voice.

Bear Woznick speaks with filmmaker Anthony D'Ambrosio about his new film, Triumph of the Heart, a powerful depiction of St. Maximilian Kolbe's passion and his triumph of love in Auschwitz. Anthony shares how his personal battle with chronic illness and insomnia led him to the brink of despair and loss of faith. In that darkness, the story of Kolbe became a lifeline—showing him how suffering, when embraced with love, can become redemptive.Kolbe's courage to enter the starvation bunker not only saved one man's life—it transformed a place of death into a cathedral of hope through prayer and song. Together, Bear and Anthony explore how every man is called to face his own suffering with faith, to find God at “the bitter end,” and to turn even the darkest pain into an offering of love.____________________Catch every season of Long Ride Home - https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detai...Discover Bear Woznick Deep Adventure Ministries: http://bit.ly/BearWoznickNEWEST BOOK "12 Rules for Manliness | Where Have All the Cowboys Gone" on Amazon or Bear's Online Store https://my-site-100622-104377.square....DONATE TO THE CAUSE: https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_...

The family table has always been about more than food, yet it's common to let this rhythm of family connection fall to the wayside in the midst of busy family life.  In this conversation, we explore why shared meals have slowly faded from many homes, the real obstacles that make dinnertime feel difficult, and how simple, nourishing food can still anchor our families in busy seasons.  We talk about flexible from-scratch recipes, rethinking productivity as mothers, and why the table becomes even more important as children grow.  This episode offers practical encouragement for cultivating belonging around the family table without the pressure of perfect or elaborate meals. In this episode, we cover: - How family dinner slowly faded from American life and why reclaiming the table matters more now than ever - The biggest obstacles modern families face when it comes to eating together and which ones are worth pushing back against - Why gathering around the table becomes more important as children get older, not less - A realistic look at simple, nourishing dinners that can come together in 20 minutes without elaborate planning - What it really looks like to keep a “flow” going throughout the day without being tied to the kitchen - How meal prep, sourdough, broth, and slow cooking create flexibility instead of pressure in busy seasons - Setting boundaries around activities and schedules while still allowing teens to grow in their independence - Practical ways to cultivate connection at the table with young children, even when meals feel chaotic - Using stories, shared rituals, and simple questions to turn mealtime into a natural place for conversation and safety - Reframing productivity in motherhood by embracing choppy, interrupted work rhythms and learning how small pockets of effort still add up to progress - Rethinking kids' snacking habits, how constant grazing impacts appetite and mealtime connection, and why “hunger” can actually work in your favor - Why hosting doesn't require special menus or extra effort and how shared meals foster community View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.

Welcome back to Build Your Bible Habit, where you can listen to a chapter from the practical and life-improving book of Proverbs in under five minutes. People tend to start cutting things out of their lives when overly busy. One of the worst things to cut is your time in the Bible. God gave us instructions for navigating the issues of life, but if we aren't reading His Word, we won't know what He said. You probably have a lot to do, but even if you don't, it is still a good idea to commit your plans to God and ask Him to establish your thoughts.

In this episode, the CardioNerds (Dr. Natalie Tapaskar, Dr. Jenna Skowronski, and Dr. Shazli Khan) discuss the process of heart transplantation from the initial donor selection to the time a patient is discharged with Dr. Dave Kaczorowski and Dr. Jason Katz. We dissect a case where we understand criteria for donor selection, the differences between DBD and DCD organ donors, the choice of vasoactive agents in the post-operative period, complications such as cardiac tamponade, and the choice of immunosuppression in the immediate post-operative period. Most importantly, we highlight the importance of multi-disciplinary teams in the care of transplant patients. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Dr. Julia Marques Fernandes.

Pearls When thinking about donor selection, you need to consider how much physiologic stress your recipient can tolerate, and this may guide your selection of “higher risk” or “lower risk” donors.   The use of DCD donors has increased the potential donor pool and shortened waitlist times with very similar perioperative outcomes to DBD transplantation.  Post-operative critical care management rests on a fundamental principle to apply as much inotropic/vasoactive therapy as needed to achieve some reasonable physiologic hemostasis, and then getting “the heck out of the way!” There are no standard regimens as practices vary across centers, but rest on providing adequate RV support, maintaining AV synchrony, and early resuscitation.   The RV is fickle and doesn't take a joke too well. RV dysfunction post-transplant is important to watch for, and it can be transient or require aggressive support. Don't miss assessing for cardiac tamponade which can require surgical evacuation- “where there's space, that space can be filled with fluid.”   Induction immunosuppression post-transplant varies across centers, but some considerations for use may include (1) high sensitization of the patient, (2) high risk immunologic donor-recipient matching, and (3) recipient renal dysfunction to provide a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) sparing regimen long term.  Management of heart transplant patients is a multi-disciplinary effort that requires coordination amongst heart failure/transplant cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists, pathology/immunologists and a slew of ancillary services. Without a dynamic and collaborative team, successful cardiac transplantation could not be possible.  Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Natalie Tapaskar  What are the basic components of donor heart selection? In practicality, it can be a very inexact science, but we use some basic selection criteria such as: (1) size matching (2) ischemic time (3) donor graft function (4) immunologic compatibility (5) age of the potential donor and recipient (6) severity of illness of the recipient (7) regional variation in donor availability When thinking about accepting older donors (>50 years old), we ideally would screen for donor coronary disease and try to keep ischemic times as short as possible. We may accept an older donor for a recipient who is highly sensitized, which leaves a smaller potential donor pool. There is no clear consensus on size matching, but the predicted heart mass is most used. We are generally more comfortable oversizing than under-sizing donor hearts. Serial echocardiography is important in potential donors as initially reduced ejection fractions can improve on repeat testing, and these organs should not be disregarded automatically. For recipients who are more surgically complex, (i.e. multiple prior sternotomies or complex anatomy), it's probably preferable to avoid older donors with some graft dysfunction and favor donors with shorter ischemic times. What is the difference between DBD and DCD? DBD is donation after brain death- these donors meet criteria for brain death. Uniform Determination of Death Act 1980: the death of an individual is The irreversible cessation of circulatory and respiratory functions or The irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including those of the brain stem DCD is donation after circulatory death- donation of the heart after confirming that circulatory function has irreversibly ceased. Only donors in category 3 of the Maastricht Classification of DCD donors are considered for DCD donations: anticipated circulatory arrest (planned withdrawal of life-support treatment). DCD hearts can be procured via direct procurement or normothermic regional perfusion (NRP). The basic difference is the way the hearts are assessed, either on an external circuit or in the donor body. For the most complex recipient, DCD may not be utilized at some centers due to concern for higher rates of delayed graft function, but this is center specific and data is still evolving. What are some features surgeons consider when procuring the donor heart? Visual assessment of the donor heart is key in DBD or NRP cases. LV function may be hard to assess, but visually the RV can be inspected. Palpation of the coronary arteries is important to assess any calcifications or abnormalities. Ventricular arrhythmias at the time of procurement may be concerning. Key considerations in the procurement process: (1) Ensuring the heart remains decompressed at all times and doesn't become distended (2) adequate cardioplegia delivery (3) aorta is cross-clamped properly all the way across the vessel (4) avoiding injury to adjacent structures during procurement What hemodynamic parameters should we monitor and what vasoactive agents are used peri-heart transplant? There is no consensus regarding vasoactive agent use post-transplant and practice varies across institutions. Some commonly seen regimens may include: (1) AAI pacing around 110 bpm to support RV function and preserve AV synchrony (2) inotropic agents such as epinephrine and dobutamine to support RV function (3) pulmonary vasodilators such as inhaled nitric oxide to optimize RV afterload Early post-transplant patients tend to have low cardiac filling pressures and require preload monitoring and resuscitation initially. Slow weaning of inotropes as the patient shows signs of stable graft function and hemodynamics. RV dysfunction may manifest as elevated central venous pressure with low cardiac index or hypotension with reducing urine output. Optimize inotropic support, volume status, metabolic status (acidosis and hypoxia), afterload (pulmonary hypertension), and assess for cardiac tamponade. Tamponade requires urgent take-back to the operating room to evacuate material. Refractory RV failure requires mechanical circulatory support, with early consideration of VA-ECMO. Isolated RV MCS may be used in the right clinical context. Why do pericardial effusions/cardiac tamponade happen after transplant? They are not uncommon after transplant and can be due to: Inherent size differences between the donor and recipient (i.e. if the donor heart is much smaller than the recipient's original heart) Bleeding from suture lines and anastomoses, pacing wires, and cannulation sites Depending on the hemodynamic stability of the patient and the location of the effusion, these effusions may require urgent return to the OR for drainage/clot evacuation via reopening the sternotomy, mini thoracotomy, and possible pericardial windows. What are the basics of immunosuppression post-transplant? Induction immunosuppression is variably used and is center-specific. Considerations for using induction therapy may include: (1) high sensitization of the patient (2) younger patients or multiparous women with theoretically more robust immune systems (3) crossing of recipient antibodies with donor antigens (3) renal function to provide a CNI sparing regimen long term Some considerations for avoiding induction may include: (1) older age of the recipient (2) underlying comorbid conditions such as infections or frailty of the recipient What are expected activity restrictions post-transplant? Sternal precautions are important to maintain sternal wire integrity. Generally avoiding lifting >10 pounds in the first 4-12 weeks, no driving usually in the first 4 weeks, monitoring for signs and symptoms of wound infections, and optimizing nutrition and physical activity. Cardiac rehabilitation is incredibly important as soon as feasible. References Kharawala A , Nagraj S , Seo J , et al.

She emphasizes that your organization's culture is your strategy, defining success, product development, and team loyalty.Culture is What You Allow: Learn why a top-down mandate doesn't work. True, thriving culture is co-created by the entire team, weaving through the soul of the organization and empowering members.The 'We' vs. 'I' Language Test: Discover key trigger words that reveal a toxic or selfish culture. A healthy culture shifts from "I" and "me" to "we" and "ours."Leadership is a Behavior, Not a Title: Amy shares her journey of shedding the "duck" mentality (calm on the surface, paddling furiously underneath). Vulnerability and authenticity build trust far more than the facade of perfection.The Art of Storytelling in Leadership: Find out how leaders can use their imperfections, failures, and lessons learned, not just their successes—to create an empathic connection and a non-judgmental coaching space for their teams.Hiring for Heart, Training for Skill: Amy outlines the strategy of making your culture crystal clear in job descriptions to act as a natural magnet or repellent. Plus, she reveals her favorite non-obvious interview question ("perfect or on time?") and what the best answers reveal about a candidate's team focus.Protect Your Culture: Understand the importance of consistently revisiting your co-created mission, vision, and values, and why neglecting behavioral misalignment is a fast track to culture decay.Tune in to learn Amy's hard-won lessons on servant leadership, co-creating vision, and protecting the culture you allow.Send us a textVirtual Rockstars specialize in helping support or replace all non-clinical roles.Learn how a Virtual Rockstar can help scale your physical therapy practice.Subscribe here to our completely free Stress-Free PT Newsletter for your weekly dose of joy.

In Part 2 of this two-part Echo Episode, Dr. Andrea Austin and Dr. Mehrdad Soleimani picks up right where they  left off: two emergency physicians who actually like coming to work, unpacking the systemic forces that are burning everyone else out. Dr. Mehrdad explains why he co-founded NeoMd Spa.  It started with one vial of Botox and a refusal to be a 60-year-old shift-worker, how physicians surrendered control of their profession to corporations, and why financial wellness is the missing pillar no one talks about. Dr. Andrea and  Dr. Mehrdad wrestle with the death of the democratic group, the rise of corporate metrics, and the urgent need for physicians to reclaim leadership, unity, and their voices.Wrapped in stories of cross-specialty happy hours, Peloton-fueled pandemic survival, and a beautiful real-time patient handoff, this episode is a rallying cry: stop complaining, start building, stay connected, and never forget, we are all members of one body.You'll Hear How They:· Expose the financial traps that keep high-earning physicians living paycheck-to-paycheck and overworking· Reveal why every single guest this season has a “side gig” — and why that's now a survival strategy· Break down the shift from physician-owned democratic groups to corporate medicine (and what we lost)· Show how one med-spa became a hedge against burnout and a reclaiming of professional autonomy· Prove that culture change happens in 10-minute handoffs and cross-specialty happy hours, not just policy memos· Issue a call for physician unity, leadership, and using your voice before you end up “on the menu”About the Guest“Just because I was born a man doesn't mean I'm better than anybody else.” — Dr. Mehrdad SoleimaniDr. Mehrdad Soleimani is a board-certified emergency physician, Assistant Director of the Emergency Department at Temecula Valley Hospital, and Chair of the hospital's Physician Wellness Committee. A former critical-care nurse, general surgery resident, proud girl-dad of three, and co-owner/medical director of NeoMed Spa, Mehrdad brings a rare blend of clinical expertise, emotional intelligence, and lived experience as an immigrant to his passionate advocacy for physician wellness and gender equity.Website: https://neomedicalspa.comResources + Mentions· NEOMD Spa – https://neomedicalspa.com· Financial wellness as a pillar of physician well-being· Visible Voices podcast with Dr. Risa Lavizzo-Mourey (“Use your voice”)· Persianpoetry: “Human beings are members of a whole…”Top 3 Key TakeawaysFinancial wellness is physician wellness : Stop the “just pick up one more shift” cycle and build something that gives you passive income and freedom.We gave away control of our profession: if you want autonomy back, you have to own something (a practice, a business, a voice at the table).Culture is built in the small moments: A thoughtful handoff, a happy hour with ortho, inviting the security guard to break bread , these are the ripples that change everything.

We can get so caught up in the busyness, routine, and familiarity of Advent that we miss the main thing: Jesus isn't focused on Christmas past but on his return. Given that, what if this Christmas season we choose to not only look back at Bethlehem—but equally celebrate the coming return of Jesus, known as the second Advent?Show Notes: The essay John reads from is “The World's Last Night,” by C.
