    Get the Frontline21 Field Manual - https://www.frontline21.com/   Why are so many modern men drifting—losing clarity, conviction, and direction—even while appearing successful on the outside?   In this powerful conversation, Frank Rich sits down with Jason Walker, founder of Frontline21, to unpack the cultural, spiritual, and personal forces quietly pulling men away from purpose, responsibility, and integrity.   Jason shares the origin story behind Frontline21, the concept of "drift," and why comfort, sexual compromise, isolation, and the loss of brotherhood have become some of the greatest threats to modern masculinity. Together, Frank and Jason explore how pornography, cultural messaging, and the erosion of objective truth have weakened men—and why the path forward isn't outrage or performance, but identity, discipline, and responsibility.   This episode challenges men to stop retreating, start holding the line in their hearts and homes, and rebuild strength through daily action, brotherhood, and faith-rooted leadership.   If you're a man who feels the tension between who you are and who you know you're called to be—this conversation will meet you right where you are.     In This Episode, You'll Learn: What's causing so many men to "drift" in the modern world   How comfort and mediocrity quietly undermine masculine identity   Why sexual integrity is a front-line battle for men   The hidden cost of isolation and the power of brotherhood   The 5 core values behind the Frontline21 movement   Why real cultural change starts in a man's heart and home   What it truly means to live a superhuman life   About Jason Walker Jason Walker is the founder of Frontline21, a Christian men's movement dedicated to restoring moral courage, discipline, and responsibility in men. Through writing, teaching, and the Frontline21 Field Manual, Jason calls men to reject drift, hold the line in their lives, and steward their families, faith, and culture with integrity. His work focuses on identity formation, brotherhood, sexual integrity, and servant leadership as the foundation for lasting change.   About Frontline21 Frontline21 is a faith-based movement equipping men to stand firm in a culture of compromise. Built around five core values—moral courage, servant leadership, sexual integrity, brotherhood, and stewardship—Frontline21 provides practical frameworks and resources to help men rebuild strength, clarity, and purpose. Their flagship resource, the Frontline21 Field Manual, offers a tactical blueprint for daily formation and is currently available for free.     Get the Frontline21 Field Manual - https://www.frontline21.com/   ---   Connect with Frank and The Super Human Life on Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/584284948647477/   Website: http://www.thesuperhumanlifepodcast.com/tshlhome   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjB4UrpxtNO2AFtDURMzoKQ

    Belonging and inner life can feel exhausting when connection depends on holding everything together. This episode explores why that fatigue isn't failure, but a signal to anchor belonging beyond roles, performance, and relational responsibility.There is a quiet exhaustion that doesn't come from conflict, failure, or broken relationships.It comes from believing that belonging depends on your steadiness, your usefulness, or your ability to hold things together.In this Sunday episode of The Recalibration, we move into Vertical Alignment — the place where identity is anchored beyond human roles, nervous system strategies, and relational performance.This conversation is especially for high-capacity humans who have learned early that connection often comes with responsibility. Being the adaptable one. The steady one. The one who carries emotional weight so relationships don't fracture. Over time, that pattern can create subtle burnout, spiritual exhaustion, and a quiet fear: If I stop holding everything together, will I still belong?Through Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR), we don't try to solve that question with reassurance or effort. We allow belonging to relocate — from something you manage horizontally to something you receive vertically.This episode weaves together themes of identity shift, attachment, nervous system regulation, and faith, grounded in the words of Jesus of Nazareth, whose invitation — “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” — reframes belonging as presence before performance.ILR is not another mindset tactic or productivity strategy. It is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective again. When identity rests before it relates, relationships no longer require over-functioning. They become places of presence rather than pressure.This episode closes Week 4 by anchoring what has been noticed, released, reclaimed, reinforced, and integrated — not through momentum, but through rest.Today's Micro RecalibrationWhere have I been earning belonging — and what would it feel like to rest instead?Not to fix.Not to explain.Just to notice.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

    (This podcast was previously published on April 11, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   A woman used to visit with me and speak all manner of secular things which were not in the Bible.   After she spoke, I would explain to her:  "What you just said is not in the Bible.  I want to build my house on the word of God."   Then she would grow very silent for awhile.   Later she would visit me again, and again speak another worldly saying, a vain babbling.  And again, I would tell her what she just said to me is not in the Bible and the Bible is true and what I want to build on.   Philippians 2:13-16   For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of HIS good pleasure. Do all things without murmurings and disputings:  That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;   Holding forth the word of life;   I didn't have to argue or dispute.  I just told her what she said was not in the Bible and that I wanted to build my thinking on that which is in the Bible.   II Timothy 2:16-17 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.  And their word will eat as doth a canker:   When we speak the word of God, we present the antidote to the poisonous sayings of this world.

    In this special bonus episode recorded ahead of their full mindset conversation, Dwayne Kerrigan and Emma Murray reflect on a deeply personal topic: relationships.As Valentine's Day approaches, they explore how intimate relationships often absorb the stress, pressure, and emotional buildup from the outside world. Dwayne shares candidly about his own growth — recognizing how habitual reactions, unmet needs, and old internal stories can surface at home if they're not processed throughout the day. Emma adds insight into how unconscious patterns, primary questions, and survival wiring shape the way we show up with those we love most.Together, they discuss raising standards inside the relationship, practicing conscious awareness, meeting your partner's needs without expectation, and replacing self-judgment with grace. This short but powerful conversation reframes love not as grand gestures, but as attention, awareness, and intentional daily behavior.Episode Highlights:0:00 - Introduction: Valentine's Day as a renewal for relationships0:27 - Viewing Valentine's Day as a time for awareness and meeting needs1:23 - Why we release stress on loved ones instead of during the day2:41 - Holding different standards for work vs. intimate relationships3:43 - The importance of awareness in meeting your partner's needs4:34 - Breaking habitual negative response patterns in relationships5:11 - How relationship quality affects every area of life5:38 - "Chains of habit are too light to be felt until too heavy to be broken"6:06 - Treating your partner with conscious awareness7:14 - Focusing on relationship growth: reading, podcasts, and learning7:53 - Enjoying the process instead of fixating on an end state8:30 - Getting addicted to lighting up your partner9:10 - Managing anger and identifying emotional triggers9:52 - Using Byron Katie's four questions to examine stories we tell ourselves10:12 - Taking responsibility instead of projecting onto your partner10:30 - We're all learning - giving yourself and your partner grace11:54 - Appreciating yourself for being imperfectKey Takeaways:We often release built-up stress on the people we love mostAwareness creates choice inside intimate momentsLove grows when we actively meet one another's needsSelf-reflection prevents projectionGrace and ownership dissolve conflict faster than blameRelationships are built through process, not perfectionConscious love is practiced — not automaticQuotes:“There's nothing better in this world and nothing makes life feel greater than having an amazing relationship that is just full of love and abundance when it is going and operating at its peak level.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“ I didn't hold myself to the same standard inside the intimate relationship as I did in my professional life.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“If things are not good in your relationship, they're not good anywhere you go.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“I think our relationships are very based on just habitual...

    (This podcast was previously published on April 7, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   God calls HIS Word to our mind by HIS Spirit.  We must learn to stop and focus on "that" word when this happens.   Or if we are reading Bible and a scripture stands out to us as we are reading, stop and focus on "that" scripture for there is a special message from God to us in that verse and it will fill a hole in our heart at that exact moment if only we will stop and focus on that scripture.   James 1:   17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.   18 Of HIS own will begat HE us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of HIS creatures.   19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:   20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.   21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.   22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.   Consider this:  What was the last scripture brought to your attention by the Holy Spirit?   Look at that scripture for it is a special message from God to you and it will fill a need in your heart at this point in time.   Learn to collect these scriptures and look through these scriptures throughout the day.  They will strengthen you and help you to keep faith in God in the midst of darkness of this present world.   Here is a scripture which delights me and excites me and encourages me to speak things of God.   Philippians 2:15-16    Paul says:  That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; Holding forth the word of life;   When I am with someone, and God reminds me of a scripture, I try to have courage to share that scripture or that concept for that is what that person needs at that exact moment.   I don't plan ahead what I will say.  I often pray asking God to have me to speak only that which HE wants spoken when I am with another person.   Then when I am reminded of that scripture or concept, I speak.   Then I know that is God doing the work, and not me.

    *This episode contains content that may be triggering for some listeners.* This week, we hear from Stephen McWhirter, a songwriter and worship leader whose early life was marked by deep trauma, addiction, and a shattered view of God shaped by his father’s hypocrisy and abuse. After years of rebellion and anger toward faith, Steven encountered Jesus in an unexpected moment that transformed everything. Today, he shares a powerful story of grace, redemption, and the hard-won freedom found on the other side of forgiveness. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from author and speaker Courtney Pray Duke, who opens up about the tragic loss of her husband. Courtney shares what it was like to navigate grief while raising three children alone, and how it encouraged her to draw closer to God as a source of comfort when everything felt like it was falling apart.

I literally had this deep anger and this wound in me that really was connected to my earthly father and a broken view of who God is.” - Stephen McWhirter “I’m in this room and I have drugs on the side table next to me. I always say it’s the kindness of a very real God to meet a wounded evangelist son in a place like this. I knew God was in the room, and I’m like, ‘I want to give you my life. I want to quit all this addiction, all this darkness, all this anger, all this depression, and this trauma that I’ve known for so long.’” - Stephen McWhirter “Jesus never healed anyone [from addiction] the same way twice, because every story has a purpose. If it takes you five times or eleven times to fall at the feet of Jesus and you mean it, He’s going to use your story to draw people to Him.” - Stephen McWhirter “There is something truly powerful on the other side of forgiveness. It’s not about reciprocation. Somebody may not say to you, ‘I’m asking for your forgiveness,’ but you have the ability to tear up the debt and throw it away. That’s real freedom, that’s real restoration.” - Stephen McWhirter “Those early days of grief were so messy and they were so uncharted. And to be honest, I didn’t even know what grief really meant until I was in the place where I was grieving with everything inside of me.” - Courtney Pray Duke “The Lord was so faithful to meet me in every moment, and I could lay my head on my pillow at night and look over the day and I could see where He was when I would open up the Word of God. It was like His promises and His love were illuminating off the page and they were bringing sustenance to my life.” - Courtney Pray Duke “It wasn’t until I lost everything that my faith grew legs. It was walking through fiery times and profound loss where Jesus met me with strength and love and power and life.” - Courtney Pray Duke “Holding the grief of my kids’ hearts and mine was impossible for me to bear. I learned so much during that time about releasing my children.” - Courtney Pray Duke “It’s just so beautiful when you see a nugget of truth that comes from the Word of God—something that you can remind yourself of what’s true, even when your circumstances look anything like what it is that you’re contending for, to know that this is what’s true. Truth is immovable. It’s not going to change shape and waver like my life does. Truth is truth.” - Courtney Pray Duke “God can do anything through a life surrendered to Him.” - Courtney Pray Duke ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

    Mexico has experienced record levels of foreign direct investment in recent years, as the drive for supply chain security has created a boom in interest in Mexico's manufacturing sector. Yet, when measured overall, investment is down in Mexico. Two issues stand out as driving investment decline: uncertainty around fiscal governance and tax regulation enforcement. In this episode, Ryan C. Berg sits down with Denise Dresser, Senior Associate with the Americas Program at CSIS and professor of political science at the Autonomous Technological Institute of Mexico (ITAM). Together they discuss how changes to Mexico's regulatory, and particularly tax environment are undermining investor confidence and contributing to broader concerns related to the upcoming 2026 Joint Review of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada free trade agreement. They also explore the ways in which tax policy intersects with the issues Mexico faces over judicial independence, insecurity, and diplomatic tensions with both the United States and Canada.

    Most investors believe their biggest risk is market performance. If they diversify correctly and stay invested long enough, everything should work out. That belief is comforting. And incomplete. Markets don't fail portfolios nearly as often as behavior does. Investors exit at the wrong time. Advisors rebalance too late. Risk is misunderstood until it shows up all at once. By then, decisions are driven by emotion, not design. In this episode, Andy Tanner sits down with Phillip Toews, author of The Behavioral Portfolio, to challenge the idea that better forecasting or higher returns solve investor problems. They don't. Portfolio structure does. Phillip explains why traditional models like the 60/40 portfolio were never designed for real human behavior — especially during extended downturns, rising-rate environments, or retirement distribution phases. He outlines why most investors are unprepared for how deep losses can actually go, and how that lack of preparation leads to perfectly timed mistakes. This conversation isn't about predicting crashes or chasing performance. It's about understanding history, accepting uncertainty, and building portfolios that account for both economic reality and psychological limits. If you've ever wondered why disciplined plans fall apart at the worst possible moments, this episode reframes the problem — and offers a clearer way to think about risk, preparation, and long-term decision-making.

    Year of the Fire Horse Part 4 Embrace Courage and Move Forward       There comes a moment when life asks you a hard question: Are you ready to stop waiting and start leading your own life? Not tomorrow. Not when things feel easier. But now—right where you are, exactly as you are. That's the space this episode lives in. And as we stand on the edge of the Year of the Fire Horse, that question feels louder, bolder, and impossible to ignore. As we move closer to February 17th, the official start of the Year of the Fire Horse, I wanted to pause, breathe, and prepare—for myself and for you. Because this year carries a rare combination of energy and power that only comes once every sixty years. And if we're ready for it, it can change everything. I'll be honest: I don't typically follow the Chinese calendar. I'm a Christian, and my faith anchors me. But if you put a horse anywhere near my path, I pay attention. Horses transformed my life after amputation, which is why I pursued my equine therapy certification. I believe deeply in their power—movement, intuition, strength—and I believe this year invites us to embody those same qualities. This isn't about superstition. It's about preparation, intention, and courage. Ole Ben, loves quiet time! Me and my girl, Sakari. She is my Soul Horse!   This episode is part of a series designed to help you step into this new year with clarity and confidence. Over the past few weeks, we've talked about movement, momentum, fearless expansion, and the shift from waiting to leading. Because waiting—especially as an amputee—can quietly become a habit. We tell ourselves we'll start when the pain eases, when our body feels better, when life calms down. And while rest is sometimes necessary, waiting can also keep us stuck.   Quiet Energy…   …And silliness!   I speak from experience. I've been an amputee for seven years now, and this is season six of the podcast. That first year after my amputation, I set goals and attacked them with everything I had. I was done letting life pass me by. I learned quickly that growth doesn't happen by sitting back—it happens by stepping forward, even when it's uncomfortable. This week, we dive into three essential pillars: courage, authenticity, and decisive action. Because dreams without plans stay dreams. Saying “I want to walk better” or “I want to feel stronger” means nothing if we don't define what that looks like. Decisive action requires clarity. It requires writing things down. Being specific. Holding ourselves accountable.   Finding the determination and taking action despite how you feel is courageous!   For me, that clarity began before my amputation. I created a vision board months before surgery—photos of my family, Bible verses, meaningful quotes, and images of the life I wanted to return to. Skiing. Movement. Strength. That board sat next to my bed for four months, reminding me daily that I am more than my body. That I am more than what was being taken from me. And that belief carried me forward.   My Vision Board But belief alone isn't enough. Action matters. And action, as an amputee, is complicated. Learning to walk again isn't just physical—it's emotional, mental, and exhausting. Trusting a prosthetic leg takes time. Wearing it can feel heavy, claustrophobic, painful. Some days, seven years later, I still struggle. And I share that because authenticity matters. This journey isn't linear, and pretending otherwise helps no one. One of the tools that helped me most was creating “carrots”—clear motivators that pulled me forward. For me, that came in the form of virtual races. Not because I needed to run, but because I needed a reason to move. Walking, rowing, swimming, chair yoga—movement in any form counts. Since my amputation, I've completed over twenty virtual challenges, some as long as 175 miles. Not to compete with anyone else—but to be better than I was yesterday.   SOME of my virtual races- all completed AFTER amputation! My motivation!   That's the heart of this episode. You are not competing with anyone but yourself. Comparison steals joy. Progress—no matter how small—builds momentum. Some days, progress looks like wearing your leg for two hours instead of none. Some days, it looks like standing instead of sitting. Some days, it looks like crying and still choosing not to quit. Courage doesn't mean fear disappears. I'm scared sometimes—scared to fall, scared to trust my body, scared to push too far. But courage is choosing to move anyway. Authenticity is honoring the hard days without surrendering to them. And decisive action is committing to your life, even when it's uncomfortable.       I close this episode with a call to action that's simple—but powerful. Find a quiet place this week. No distractions. No to-do lists. Breathe. And picture your life twelve months from now. How does your body feel? How do you move? What are you proud of? Then write it down—and work backward to create small steps toward your goals. That's how transformation happens. The Year of the Fire Horse is not a year to sit back. It's a year to lead, to grow, to fall and rise again. And you don't have to do it alone. No matter where you are in your journey—new amputee, seasoned warrior, or someone simply struggling with life—I'm here.

    We're going to talk about redshirting now, which is when parents chose to delay when their child starts school, so they are at the older end of the class. For those of you wondering why it is called "redshirting" the name originates from American college sport, where a student athlete sits out of competition for one year to develop skills and retain eligibility, often wearing a red shirt. In New Zealand we don't collect data on the age children start school, but in Australia, statistics show the number of parents opting to delay has more than doubled since 2014. So, it is it a good idea, and what about holding kids back a year once they are actually at school? Parenting Place Senior coach Jenny Hale discusses with Jesse.

    A CMO Confidential Interview with Pete Imwalla, former CEO of RPA and 4A's board member. Pete shares his take on how many tech changes resulted in additional agency headcount, how AI is rapidly reversing that trend, and why many agency valuations have dropped significantly over the last 5 years. Key topics include: why brand building is like infrastructure; how Publicis is bucking the trend; how to think about "in-housing;" and why Paul Roetzer's CMO 2023 CMO Confidential show was prescient. Tune in to hear about the "2nd mover advantage" and why he hates the concept of "future proofing." Agency economics are getting rewritten in the age of AI. Mike Linton sits down with Pete Imwalle 32-year RPA veteran and former CEO to dissect what's changing—and what leaders should do about it. They cover the shift from reach to relevance, why FTE-based fees are misaligned in an AI world, how to separate automation from actual advantage, and where in-housing does and doesn't work. Along the way: the sustained business impact of the Farmers “We know a thing or two…” campaign, the rise of agentic workflows, and why “future-proofing” starts with culture, not clairvoyance.

    Season 5 opens with a return to the land.In this debut episode of our Guided by Plants series, early childhood educators Nick (he/him) and Mike (he/him) center alder and big leaf maple as living teachers of nourishment, protection, and interdependence in early childhood spaces.Through shared reflection and conversation, we explore how these plants sustain the ecosystems around them and what that can teach us about nourishing children in our programs. We riff on alder's role in restoring and supporting others, big leaf maple's capacity to offer shelter and space, and how these lessons can guide our interactions with children, families, and colleagues.This hour-long episode is rooted in observation, story, and practice. Listeners will walk away with ideas for how to thoughtfully introduce alder and big leaf maple into classroom experiences, leadership and management approaches, and relationship-building with families—grounded in care, curiosity, and connection rather than compliance.Join us as we slow down, notice, and invite the plant world to help shape how we show up for children and for one another.Interested in bringing Nick and Mike to your community?

    In this special solo episode, I reflect on the surprising, emotional power of football—not just as entertainment, but as a vehicle for emotional expression, tribal connection, and generational bonding. Using the recent Buffalo Bills playoff loss as a launch point, I explore why sports hurt when we lose, why they matter when we win, and how something so seemingly trivial can touch the deepest parts of our humanity.I talk about the ritual of watching games at a Bills Backers bar, the magic of celebrating with strangers, and the sacred phone calls I share with my dad every week during the season. We also touch on the contrast between the fan and the player—the joy for us, the sacrifice for them—and why honoring both truths is part of growing up. If you've ever wondered why this “game” hits you so hard, this one's for you. Episode Highlights[00:00] – Why losing a football game hurts more than we admit[01:15] – Our primal need for battle, stakes, and tribal expression[02:43] – Ancient arenas vs. modern stadiums: how ritual never left[04:10] – Community medicine: bars, strangers, and bonding over a team[05:09] – Celebrating with strangers becomes something sacred[06:30] – The real therapy: weekly phone calls with my dad after every game[07:32] – Honoring the grief of knowing those calls won't last forever[08:45] – Sports as socially accepted emotional expression[09:32] – Holding two truths: joy for the fan, risk for the player[10:45] – Maybe it's not just a game, maybe it's one of the few places we let ourselves feel it all Links & ResourcesCathcBio https://www.catchbio.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENThe Biological Blueprint Program: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybroken CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/freddie.kimmelYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@beautifullybrokenworld Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    I open my heart and share where I truly am in my grief journey—eight years after losing Paul, and after walking through layers of loss I never imagined I'd have to carry. This episode was born out of a quiet but powerful realization during the holidays: that grief evolves, that endings can bring clarity, and that moving forward doesn't mean forgetting—it means choosing alignment, peace, and authenticity. I reflect on parental estrangement, complicated family dynamics, selling the home Paul and I built our life in, and the tender moment of recognizing when a chapter has truly completed. I talk honestly about what I've learned along the way: How sitting with your feelings—rather than avoiding them—can bring unexpected peace Why turning inward matters more than seeking answers from others Letting go of anger, old stories, and the need to react Trusting your inner guidance, even when life feels unfair Holding grief and hope in the same container Choosing not to participate in cycles of dysfunction Finding purpose after loss, even when it feels scary or unreasonable I also share how opening a community-centered barre studio became part of my healing—not because grief ended, but because I allowed myself to evolve. This episode is about trusting that what broke you may also be the thing that reshapes you into someone stronger, clearer, and more aligned than ever before. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure whether you'll ever be "okay" again, I want you to hear this clearly: you are not broken, you are not grieving wrong, and you are capable of moving forward in your own time. This episode is an invitation—to get quiet, to turn inward, to trust yourself, and to believe that even now, something meaningful is still unfolding for you. Welcome to New Ways Barre.

    Sometimes, a pivot isn’t triggered by a failure.Sometimes, it happens because you keep looking for a way to make the world a little bit fairer. Anne Aly was born in Alexandria, Egypt, and moved to Australia when she was just two years old. Her parents worked hard in factory jobs to give their family a foothold here - and those early experiences of displacement, resilience and possibility stayed with her. By her late twenties, Anne was a single working mother raising two young boys in Perth on the minimum wage. She knew what it meant to juggle life’s demands with no safety net - and she used that as fuel to keep pushing forward. She went back to study - and then studied some more, earning a Master’s and a PhD focused on countering violent extremism. From there, Anne became a globally recognised expert in her field - advising the United Nations, publishing hundreds of academic works, and even being the only Australian invited to speak at President Obama’s White House summit on countering violent extremism. But academia was never where her story stopped. In 2016, Anne took another monumental pivot - into politics. She was elected as the Federal Member for Cowan, becoming the first Muslim woman in the Australian Parliament, and then a minister in federal government, shaping policy on multicultural affairs, small business and international development. Along the way, she has championed issues close to her heart - from community safety to meaningful support for domestic and family violence survivors, turning her own life experience into public purpose. In this episode, Anne talks about how she navigated seismic life shifts with grit, compassion, and that same drive to make space for voices too often overlooked - and how she keeps pivoting even when the stakes are high.
