In this deeply honest conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with cartoonist and author, Becky Barnicoat, about her graphic memoir, Cry When the Baby Cries, inspired by a massively popular cartoon she created for The New Yorker. Together they explore the messy, beautiful, and often isolating experience of modern motherhood—from IVF struggles and miscarriage to postpartum transformations and the bittersweet joy of watching children grow and change.On Drawing Her Graphic Memoir"The drawings that I did sort of started to kind of suggest a kind of wild, maybe slightly unhinged mother home alone with her baby... maybe refusing to conform to social expectations, maybe not being able to conform, you know, because of tiredness, because of mental distress and isolation."IVF and Fertility Struggles"I struggled to confide in anyone for a long time. The only person that knew was my husband and I felt so alone... I think I started to become really quite depressed and the way that that manifested for me was that the world started to feel unsafe and quite hostile."The Shock of New Parenthood"It's just one of the most kind of beautiful but painful experiences available."Postpartum Bodies and Society's Expectations"Kids and like bodies that have given birth are not very welcome in society. And I think that's a real shame and it's to all of our detriment."Becky Barnicoat is a cartoonist and writer for The New Yorker, The Guardian, The New Statesman, Grazia, BuzzFeed and more. Before becoming a full-time cartoonist, she spent 10 years working as an editor and writer at The Guardian. She is the author of the graphic memoir Cry When the Baby Cries, a darkly funny account of her first years as a parent. She lives in the UK.Warning: episode mentions sexual assault and graphic images of childbirthThanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast!

In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Dr. Jordan Grumet, hospice physician, writer, and podcast host, as he shares his journey. At age 7, Dr. Grumet lost his father, an oncologist, to a brain aneurysm, and he became determined to become a doctor himself. However, despite achieving his goal, Dr. Grumet experienced burnout when he realized that becoming a doctor couldn't "cosmically make up" for his father's death.Drawing from his experiences as a hospice physician, he offers profound insights on distinguishing between meaning and purpose, overcoming burnout, and creating a life that genuinely "lights you up."Key Points* Meaning vs. Purpose:* Meaning: How we cognitively understand our past; the stories we tell ourselves* Purpose: Actions in the present and future that "light us up"* Finding Your Purpose: Look for "purpose anchors" - activities and experiences that energize and fulfill you* The Art of Subtraction: Remove elements from your life that don't bring joy to discover what remains that does* Generational Growth: Breaking cycles of expectation to model authenticity for the next generation* Achieving Impact: Dr. Grumet found that pursuing what truly energized him (writing and podcasting) ultimately allowed him to help more people than his medical practiceNotable Quotes"Purpose is about the present and future, and it's about actions. All it is is about things that light you up. If you're trying to get more out of purpose than that, then you really don't have a purpose problem. You have a meaning problem.""Happy people tend to tell themselves heroic stories about their past. They see their traumas, they see their difficulties, and they see that they heroically got through them.""You can't purpose your way to enough. That's a meaning problem. That's a going back and dealing with your childhood problem.""All you have control over, the one measly thing we can control is what activities are we involved with as time passes.""I've really spent a lot of time thinking about what winning the game when it comes to life looks like... winning the game is as you get older, from the day you're born to the day you die, basically you want to be looking at your calendar... and you want to add in as many purposeful, joyful things that light you up into those time slots of your life.""When people see you doing things authentic to you, you are giving them permission."About Dr. Jordan GrumetDr. Jordan Grumet is a physician, writer, and host of the popular Earn and Invest podcast. He currently serves as the Associate Medical Director at Unity Hospice. His latest book, The Purpose Code, shares key life lessons learned from working with individuals in their final months of life.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast!

In this timely discussion, Dr. Jennifer Reid listens in as Dr. Megan Moreno, Co-Medical Director for the AAP's Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental Health, challenges the outdated "addiction" narrative and reveals a transformative framework that empowers both parents and adolescents. Drawing from 15+ years of research at the intersection of technology and teen health, Dr. Moreno offers a refreshingly nuanced roadmap for families navigating the complex digital landscape—where the goal isn't to simply limit screen time, but to foster healthy, balanced relationships with technology in a world where screens are unavoidable.Key Points* Moving Beyond the "Addiction" Framework* Youth have grown weary of the addiction framework for social media use* The term "addiction" makes teens feel powerless* Focus instead on empowering conversations where teens feel they have control* Understanding Problematic Use* Three key aspects of problematic technology use:* Content: Repeatedly seeking harmful or inaccurate content* Crowding Out: When technology displaces important activities (sleep, relationships, schoolwork)* Relationship with Technology: Feeling anxious or unable to disconnect* The "Digital Native" Challenge* Today's adolescents are "digital natives" interacting with screens from a young age* Parents need to model healthy online-offline balance* Self-imposed limits can be effective role modeling* Identity Development Online* Teens use social media as part of identity development* They often "try out" new identities, hobbies, or friendships online* Multiple platforms allow teens to curate different aspects of their identity* Vulnerability Factors* Some teens are more vulnerable to negative effects of social media* Pre-existing mental health conditions can make online experiences more challenging* Strong offline support systems help mitigate negative online experiences* The Five C's Framework for Healthy Media Use* Child: Understanding each child's unique needs and characteristics* Content: Focusing on the quality and type of media being consumed* Calm: Building diverse tools for emotional regulation beyond screens* Crowding Out: Ensuring media doesn't displace essential activities like sleep* Communication: Maintaining open dialogue about technology use* Parental Guidance Approach* Parents can be curious learners alongside their teens* Focus on transferable skills: treating others well, maintaining safety, setting boundaries* Ask questions from a place of curiosity rather than judgmentResources Mentioned* American Academy of Pediatrics Family Media Plan tool (or Google "AAP Family Media Plan")* Common Sense Media for app and game reviews* The five C's framework: Child, Content, Calm, Crowding Out, Communication* American Academy of Pediatrics Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental HealthGuest: Dr. Megan Moreno - Professor of Pediatrics and Affiliate Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison; Academic Chief for the Division of General Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine; Principal Investigator of the Social Media and Adolescent Health Research Team. Dr. Moreno has authored over 200 research articles as well as written and edited several textbooks. She is particularly interested in incorporation of youth voice in research, dissemination of research to reach teens and families, and the impact of research on clinical practice and policy. Dr. Moreno currently serves as the Co-Medical Director for the AAP's Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental Health.Ongoing ResearchDr. Moreno mentioned a current study examining the impact of social media on adolescent brain development using functional MRI scans to better understand how teen brains process information from social media over time.Dr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a Shrink.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind podcast!

In this eye-opening episode of The Reflective Mind Podcast, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Gabriela Nguyen, a 23-year-old Harvard graduate student and founder of APPstinence, a Gen Z-led organization advocating for social media-free lifestyles. After being "chronically online" for over a decade, Gabriela now uses a flip phone and has developed the 5D Method to help others break free from social media dependency.For those feeling trapped by social media's endless demands, Gabriela offers both practical steps and philosophical clarity. Her journey shows that opting out isn't about missing out—it's about reclaiming your attention, deepening your relationships, and choosing peace in a world designed to keep you engaged at all costs.The path to digital freedom isn't about moderation—it's about recognizing that sometimes the best way to win is to stop playing the game entirely.Key Insights:The Social Media Trap:"For years, I kept losing the battle with social media until I realized that the war was never justified." Gabriela describes how social media creates a "faux sense of importance" while constantly demanding our attention.The Real Cost: Social media doesn't just take our time—it fundamentally changes how we experience life. As Gabriela notes, "You exchange quality for quantity" in relationships, and the pressure of constant digital performance feels "like a job."The 5D Method 1. Decrease: Reduce screen time by removing apps from your phone and increase engagement with the real world 2. Deactivate: Start with the platform you use least and work your way up 3. Delete: Let the 30-day deactivation period pass, allowing accounts to be permanently deleted 4. Downgrade: Consider switching to a simpler phone that doesn't invite constant use 5. Depart: Notice the distance between yourself and the digital world as you reconnect with realityFinding Peace: "The agency that I wanted to employ was not going to come from hacking my algorithm the right way... It was the agency to just choose that I'm not going to engage in this fight at all."Dr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a Shrink.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast!

Dr. Henriksen shares valuable insights from her research and personal experience about nurturing creativity in both educational settings and daily life."Creativity is something that's fundamental and core to who we are as people.

She emphasizes that creativity is accessible to everyone: "If you look across the breadth of most creativity studies, it's really something that we all have access to in different ways as human beings."

In this profound episode, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with renowned Jungian analyst Dr. James Hollis about personal growth, life transitions, and the journey of self-discovery. Dr. Hollis, a distinguished faculty member at the Jung Center of Houston and author of over 20 books, shares deep insights about finding one's authentic path and understanding the messages our psyche sends us.The Journey from Academia to Depth PsychologyDr. Hollis shares his personal story of transformation, beginning with a midlife depression while working as a humanities professor. This crisis led him to retrain as a Jungian analyst in Zurich, Switzerland, ultimately discovering that his true calling lay in helping others explore their psychological depths.Understanding the Soul's JourneyDr. Hollis explains how we often lose touch with our authentic selves in childhood and must work to recover this connection in adulthood. He emphasizes that this recovery isn't self-indulgent but rather essential for both personal growth and our relationships with others.The Two Halves of LifeThe conversation explores how life's first half focuses on adaptation and fitting in, while the second half calls us to deeper questions of meaning and authenticity. Dr. Hollis discusses how this transition often emerges during midlife or significant life changes.On the Soul's Journey:"The soul is intuited in childhood, pushed aside by the adaptive choices of consciousness and recovered in adulthood only when we are willing to open to it."On Childhood's Impact:"Jung said the greatest burden a child must bear is the unlived life of the parent. And what he meant by that was wherever the parent is stuck, the child sooner or later is going to internalize that as a roadmap and either repeat that, which is very common, or spend a lifetime trying to get away from it."On Finding Your Path:"You're not here to live someone else's pattern. That's already taken. You're here to learn yours, find your path."On Self-Understanding:"It's not so much what we do or think or feel or believe or desire. It's what that is in service to inside of us that makes a difference."On Personal Growth:"Something inside of each of us knows what's right for us. How do you access that? How do you pay attention to that?"Dr. Reid on Instagram: @jenreidmd and LinkedInAlso check out Dr. Reid's regular contributions to Psychology Today: Think Like a Shrink.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind!

In this honest and refreshing episode, author Jennifer Case opens up about the often-hidden realities of motherhood that many women experience but few discuss openly. If you've ever felt alone in your complicated feelings about pregnancy, birth, or motherhood – this episode is for you.Key topics:* The profound isolation of early motherhood and why it's more common than you think"I realize now that my daughter is three how profoundly isolated I felt as I transitioned into motherhood" * How our modern approach to pregnancy and birth differs from historical "social childbirth" practices* Finding community in unexpected places, including online spaces like BabyCenter* The rarely discussed experience of pregnancy ambivalence and unintended pregnancy"The interesting thing about talking with other mothers in person is everyone seems so afraid of being judged, especially about the parenting choices they make when their children are young."* Navigating prenatal and postpartum depression while battling the stigma around these conditions* The importance of making space for all emotions during pregnancy – not just the "expected" onesFeatured insight: "The truth is half of the pregnancies in the United States are unintended... I think these kind of complicated reactions to pregnancy aren't nearly as uncommon as we initially think they are." – a striking reminder that you're not alone if your path to motherhood wasn't perfectly planned or immediately joyful.Guest: Jennifer Case, author of We Are Animals: On the Nature and Politics of Motherhood, shares her personal journey through two very different pregnancies, including her experience with an unplanned second pregnancy and the complex emotions that followed.Whether you're struggling with isolation, experiencing complicated feelings about motherhood, or simply seeking validation that it's okay to not always feel okay – this episode offers a judgment-free space to explore the full spectrum of maternal experiences.Remember: Your feelings about motherhood, whatever they may be, are valid and shared by many others who may just be too afraid to speak up.Jennifer Case is the author of We Are Animals: On the Nature and Politics of Motherhood (Trinity University Press, 2024) and Sawbill: A Search for Place (University of New Mexico Press, 2018). Her essays have appeared widely in journals such as The Rumpus, Orion, Ecotone, Literary Mama, and North American Review, among others.

This interview was SO INSPIRING! Dr. Khan's message was one of hope and engagement, through a powerful lens of equity and justice. Dr. Khan and I met as part of this lovely exploration of the book, The Artist's Way, by Julia Cameron, with a group for women in health care called Introspective Spaces. She had so many beautiful insights throughout our time together, and I loved the essays she wrote about her family from Pakistan and El Salvador, and her dedication to her role in health care.Dr. Amna Khan is an outpatient pediatrician at Santa Clara Valley Health and a clinical associate professor (affiliated) at Stanford University School of Medicine. Working within California's second-largest public safety net hospital, she serves a diverse urban population of nearly 2 million constituents, dedicating her career to addressing health inequities and their intergenerational impacts on vulnerable children and families.Dr. Khan's Key Initiatives* She co-leads Pedi POWER (Pediatricians Working and Organizing to End Racism)* She has created The People's Pediatrician website and health equity newsletter* She is continuously developing innovative interventions to challenge systemic racism in medicineDr. Khan on her cultural identity:"I wanted patient families to see me for who I really am at my core, not a half, but a double of the identities I feel so privileged to call my own."On her family background:"I grew up in a household that was rich in diversity of cultural practices, religions, languages, food... The example that they set was one of tremendous love and compassion, and also that humans are much more similar than they are different."On pediatrics:"Every child is a seed. And if you give a child the proper soil, and if you do that from the beginning consistently, the tremendous amount of potential that you can garner is something that none of us even believe."On representation in medicine:“Not only are you welcome, but you are desperately needed and we want your gifts.

In this enlightening episode of The Reflective Mind Podcast, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Christy Gibson, MD a renowned trauma clinician offering a fresh perspective on understanding and treating trauma in the modern era. Dr. Gibson, the author of The Modern Trauma Toolkit: Nurture Your Post-traumatic Growth with Personalized Solutions, challenges traditional paradigms, emphasizing that trauma responses are fundamentally adaptive rather than pathological – representing the body and mind's intelligent attempts to ensure survival. We discuss how recent research has revolutionized our understanding of trauma, highlighting the critical role of the body's stress response systems. The conversation discusses the incredible potential of somatic-based treatments, which Dr. Gibson argues are essential given trauma's profound impact on the nervous system and bodily functioning. She outlines a three-step framework for trauma healing: * Establishing safety and stabilization, * Processing traumatic memories through cognitive and somatic approaches * Reconnecting with our authentic selves and those in our emotional orbit. The discussion offers valuable insights for both practitioners and individuals on their healing journey, seamlessly blending cutting-edge research with practical, applicable wisdom.Thanks for listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast and reading A Mind of Her Own!

In the latest episode of The Reflective Mind Podcast, Dr. Jennifer Reid spoke with Dr. Laura Suttin, physician, coach and author of The Purposeful MD: Creating the Life You Love without Guilt.Our conversation explored the complex landscape of physician wellness programs - yes, they can provide support and community building, but we discuss how these programs often fall short by focusing on individual resilience rather than addressing systemic issues. She shares particular insight into the challenges facing women in medicine, drawing from both her personal experience and coaching practice.Key takeaways:·Women in medicine are constantly trying to care for everyone: their patients, their families, other providers, often placing themselves last·Institutional change requires both organizational leadership listening to physicians, as well as grassroots physician advocacy·Women physicians can benefit from a shift away from unrealistic and damaging attempts to reach perfection in their many roles.Listeners can find Dr. Suttin at thepurposefulmd.com or @PurposefulMD on social media, where she continues to build community around physician wellbeing and career development.Thanks for checking out A Mind of Her Own and The Reflective Mind Podcast!

Welcome back to this week's episode of the Heads Together Podcast! Today, I've got a powerful, deeply inspiring conversation with Kaitlin, the founder of A Tour of Her Own - a unique business right at the intersection of tourism, history, and feminism. Kaitlin's journey as an entrepreneur isn't just about creating a successful business; it's about amplifying women's voices, embracing authenticity, and bringing awareness to the stories of women throughout history. We talk about what it takes to step out, launch something bold, and make a real impact. Kaitlin opens up about her experience writing a book, the courage and vulnerability that it takes, and what it meant for her to become a published author. She also shares the bigger vision driving her work, using education and storytelling as vehicles for social justice and positive change. One of the big takeaways from our chat is the value of a supportive community. Kaitlin talks about the role of relationships in her work, the impact of having allies, and how a strong network can make all the difference for women in entrepreneurship. And of course, we didn't shy away from the real stuff, like the challenges of time management and finding room for innovation in a constantly evolving business landscape. If you're a woman on a mission to grow a business that's true to who you are, this episode will leave you inspired to go all in. Find out more about Kaitlin: Kaitlin Calogera is a licensed tour guide, author, and entrepreneur who holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in History. After recognizing a lack of women's representation in public spaces, she founded the first tourism company in Washington, DC to focus exclusively on women's history. A Tour Of Her Own (TOHO) was established in 2018 to offer historical tours and special events that reframe the narrative by elevating women's stories. Kaitlin became a professional tour guide because she believes in education beyond the classroom and that tourism has the power to ignite social change. Her book "111 Places in Women's History That You Must Not Miss" is a travel guidebook that encourages readers to explore sites and stories about women, many who are overlooked in traditional textbooks. With an extensive background in coaching female student-athletes, Kaitlin's philosophies center around teamwork, empowerment, and education. As an avid traveler and researcher, she believes in the idea that we all belong but sometimes have to search deeper for the people, places, and stories we connect with most.

EPISODE 55 - “Favorite Classic Films of the 1950s ” - 09/30/2024 ** This episode is sponsored brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/BENEATH and get on your way to being your best self.” ** The 1950s was a real transitional decade for classic films. As we got further away from WW2, and the Cold War began to rise up prominently, there was a cynicism across the land that influenced the content of many Hollywood movies. Films took on a grittier, more realistic feel, and the subject matters were darker and more controversial. It was the decade that sparked masterpieces like “Sunset Boulevard,” “All About Eve,” “From Here To Eternity,” “Cat On A Hot Tin Roof,” “A Streetcar Named Desire,” “Anatomy of a Murder,” “ Strangers on a Train,” “Shane,” and “High Noon.” Listen as Steve and Nan talk about some special 1950s films that inspire them.

And I think that that is an unsexy thing to talk about, right? It's much sexier to be like, Oh, I love working on my sentence-level craft, which is not true for me. But I think that a lot of a creative career is understanding it is still a job, and then understanding how you make sure that within the container of the job you can do the work that you want to do. That is a really difficult balance to make.

This episode's guest is probably going to make you feel like a slacker. In fairness though? Bonnie-Jill Laflin can make just about everyone feel that way. Santa Claus on Christmas Eve looks like a lay-a-bout compared to Bonnie Jill. We'll get into her many MANY roles during our chat, but I will say that the first (and still only ) female NBA scout recently added another experience to her already poly-hyphenated career: author. Bonnie Jill's new book, “In a League of Her Own” is a testament to the many female “firsts” in sports and sports business. In it she features insights and interviews with iconic figures like Billie Jean King, Danica Patrick, and Jackie Joyner Kersee. In our conversation, we talk about Bonnie Jill's remarkable sports journey, the common threads she saw in the women she interviewed for the book, and even what she learned about herself while writing it. We'll also find out if she's a ninja. Her answer probably won't surprise you… ABOUT THIS PODCAST The 1-on-1: Sports Business Conversations podcast is a production of ADC Partners, a sports marketing agency that specializes in creating, managing, and evaluating effective partnerships between brands and sports.

WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE POOR AUDIO QUALITY! This week on Hashtag History, we are going to be looking at a very interesting event in History that resulted in a common phrase or psychological term that most of us are familiar with today: Stockholm Syndrome.  This psychological condition derives its name from the 1973 Stockholm Bank Robbery. On August 23, 1973, a man named Jan-Erik Olsson (a convict) attempted to rob a bank in Stockholm, Sweden. Olsson – later, also alongside a former jail mate of his, Clark Olofsson — would end up taking four of the bank employees hostage while they awaited police to comply with their very specific demands. Over the course of this hostage situation, the hostages would actually appear to take sides with their captors with one hostage in particular - a woman named Kristin Enmark - telling authorities that she was actually afraid of the police, and not her captors. When this hostage situation was finally resolved, not a single one of the hostages testified against Olsson or Olofsson in the following criminal trial. Rather, they actually assisted in raising funds for their legal defense. So what's the deal? Listen to this week's episode to find out.

This week on Hashtag History, we are discussing Santa Cruz's infamous Mystery Spot. The Mystery Spot is roughly 150 feet of WTF? It is this small location hidden up in the redwood forests where the laws of gravity don't appear to exist. It's where you can stand on what appears to be a level table but, once you are standing on top of it, your body takes on a 45 degree angle. Or you can place a ball on what - again, appears to be a level surface - and this ball will mysteriously slide upwards and off of the surface. OR you can be standing next to a five year old who is clearly shorter than you but, once you step onto what appears to be - AGAIN - a level plank, you are suddenly the shorter of the pair.

This week, we're joined by Sarah Marsh. Her debut is 'A Sign of Her Own'. It tells the story of Ellen Lark, who discovers a side to Alexander Graham Bell, one of history's most famous figures, that few other people know. Sarah was shortlisted for the Lucy Cavenish Prize in 2019, selected for the London Library Emerging Writer's Programme, and has a Masters in Creative Writing. She is also deaf, as is her protagonist Ellen, and we discuss why this story was so important to write. You can hear why it took 12 years to get published, whether you ever really know the story is finished, and how she went about researching real figures from the past.This episode is sponsored by 'Who is the Cheese Wire Killer?', a brand new true crime podcast you can find wherever you get your shows.Support us at patreon.com/writersroutine@writerspodwritersroutine.com Hosted on Acast.

As many will already know, it was the youngest child of Prince Louis of Battenberg and Princess Victoria of Hesse and by Rhine who would become a prominent figure in the lives of the modern world of the Windsors. Young Louis Battenberg, later Louis Mountbatten, was known as Dickie to his confidants, and was stung early when his father, First Sea Lord of the British Navy, was removed from his post at the outbreak of WWI because of his German origins. The episode would motivate his son to excel in a Naval career to reclaim the title, and the then-Mountbattens' familial closeness with the House of Windsor would give him an avenue to real political power and influence. Edwina Ashley, future wife of Louis Mountbatten, was born into a family of means, but not of emotional connection. While her grandfather, Sir Ernest Cassel, was kind and involved, her parents left her sister and Edwina to mostly be raised by governesses. After her mother's death, Edwina's father married for a second time to a woman Louis would later describe as "a wicked woman." Edwina was ultimately able to find refuge in her grandfather's home, where as a teenager she became a sophisticated society hostess and a friend to many in the monied elite. Sir Ernest Cassel's death, when Edwina was about 20, made her one of the richest women in England. Upon her engagement to the much-less-rich Louis Mountbatten, Sir Anthony Eden noted in his diary, "Edwina Ashley is engaged to Lord Louis Mountbatten. What a waste."

Welcome to another episode of the Rise Above Toxic Work Environment Series on the Game of Her Own podcast.  Today, we have a very special guest who will remain anonymous, but her story is no less powerful. With over 20 years of experience in the high-stakes world of sports and entertainment, she's here to share her journey through workplace challenges, self-doubt, and ultimately, empowerment. In today's episode, our guest opens up about a time in her career when she blamed herself for the negative actions of others. She shares her experiences of being bullied at work, a difficult time that led her to question, "What am I doing to make this person do this to me?" It's a question many of us may have asked ourselves in challenging situations, and her insights on this are both enlightening and deeply relatable. Our guest also discusses the invaluable role her support system played in helping her navigate through these tough times. The power of having a strong network of allies cannot be overstated, and her story provides a testament to this truth. A pivotal moment came when she realized she was being judged based on someone else's self-doubt, not her own abilities or worth. This realization acted as a catalyst for change, leading her to reassess her situation and values. She talks about her breaking point, a moment that many of us experience in our professional lives. But it was her strong values that set her on a different path, one that led her away from self-doubt and towards self-belief. Despite her resilience, she candidly shares how she started to doubt herself amidst these trials. Her honesty in discussing this common yet often unspoken feeling is both brave and empowering. Join us on this episode of Game of Her Own as we dive into these topics and more. Our guest's journey is a reminder of the strength that lies within us all, and the power of staying true to our values, even in the face of adversity. Listen in, be inspired, and remember - you're not alone in your game.   Free Resource | Empower Your Career: Mastering the Art of Advocacy for Promotions and Raises: https://rb.gy/3qpump   Connect with Jahaan:  Learn more about working with Jahaan and see if it's the right fit for you: https://JahaanBlakeAppointmentScheduling.as.me/LetsTalk Join Jahaan's VIP Email List: https://bit.ly/3yccwAP  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jahaanblake/ Email: jblake@jahaanblake.com Website: https://jahaanblake.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jahaanblake/   Music By:  Quanzaa

We Love You, Madam President by Alvin S Berger https://amzn.to/40ngKVS Alvinsberger.com The invention of a sentient computer imported from Israel leads to political chaos in America. This computer is more than human-better than human-with its limitless memory storage and human characteristics, which prove to be big trouble for the perverted President of the United States. His mistakes lead to his downfall and that of his entire cabinet. With Washington in chaos, two CIA agents and some members of the Senate try to halt what the deep state conspirators want to accomplish through bribery and deceit. The murder of anyone who gets in their way means nothing to them, mere collateral damage of their nefarious plan. Rising from the tumult is a brilliant woman who breaks through the glass ceiling as she fights to become the first female president with the knowledge of the world at her fingertips. She must rely on her own intuition and the goodness of humanity to shine through the darkness of dirty politics.Here are some high-level summary notes from The Chris Voss Show podcast interview with author Alvin S. Berger: Alvin S. Berger is an author who began writing later in life. His background is as a dentist who loved continuing education and personal development. His first book "A Mind of Her Own" was inspired by a note he wrote to his partner Vera, who encouraged him to turn it into a book. His second book is "We Love You Madam President" - a speculative fiction novel about the first female U.S. president, AI, and political intrigue. It came out of imagining walking with the characters through scenarios. Berger also sculpts and paints. He finds immediate artistic mediums quicker for an audience to absorb than the time investment of reading a full book. His third upcoming book is "Tentacles of Corruption" tackling political corruption and AI. He used a real AI system to generate text for the book. Writing allows Berger to feel connected to the characters. He prints out each page, edits by hand, and compiled a physical manuscript before publishing. There are plans to potentially turn "We Love You Madam President" into a screenplay and movie. Berger is working with Blackstone Publishing and feels honored at the positive response to his books as a first-time author.

I am absolutely delighted to speak today with Joline Godfrey, highly respected family advisor, educator, and author of many books, including the all-time classic “Raising Financially Fit Kids”. In 1992, Joline founded An Income of Her Own, the first non-profit focused exclusively on financial education for girls and women, and subsequently started Independent Means Inc. to provide financial education to girls and boys, which was acquired in 2015. She is now the Founder of Bounce10, a brand-new startup financial parenting platform offering highly bespoke financial education to families. Joline has been a pioneer and industry trailblazer in the field of family education, especially in helping families prepare and equip their rising generations with the life skills and financial fluency required for them to be successful. In this episode, she shares her views on the current state of how ready and prepared families feel to cope with the future and the constant change they face and offers some valuable and practical learning and engagement tools. Joline shares her unique insights from working with the youngest family members, those in their 20s and younger, and talks about the unique challenges Gen Z family members face today and how are they different from what young people in prior generations have had to contend with throughout history. Given the unprecedented disruptions young people face today, Joline offers some practical and important steps families can, and must, take to help ready their future generations and highlights some of the best tools, frameworks, or solutions families can utilize to educate and inspire their young members. Finally, since nowadays families rely on an ever-growing constellation of family wealth advisors to accomplish their goals, Joline provides some suggestions and ideas for family advisors, many of whom come from deeply technical and quantitative disciplines. She shares her ideas on how advisors can be more supportive and relevant to their clients by helping the families they serve better prepare, educate, and engage their younger family members for the uncertainties of the future. Enjoy this fascinating conversation with our industry's best known and highly regarded pioneer of family learning and rising-gen education.

On this episode of They Walk Among America… Teachers hold a significant role in the lives of young children, second only to parents in terms of influence. Within the school environment, they are entrusted with the care and education of children, nurturing their growth and safeguarding their well-being. Consequently, parents place a considerable amount of trust in their children's teachers, relying on them to act in the best interests of their students. However, in 1998, a shocking violation of that trust unfolded in a school in Seattle, sending shockwaves worldwide. The case served as a stark reminder of the double standards that exist within society when it comes to female sexual predators…*** LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED *** ‘They Walk Among America' is a Law & Crime podcast network production.This episode was hosted by Nina Innsted.Researched and written by Emily G.
