In this Cancer Matters podcast, Dr Bill Nelson, Director of the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center, talks with Beth Blakey and Samantha Schrager from the Cancer Hope Network about their mission providing mentorship to cancer patients, the families of patients and caregivers, and a new partnership with Johns Hopkins. Cancer Hope Network is a peer mentorship program that provides one-on-one support for adults impacted by cancer. They connect cancer patients and caregivers with mentors who have been through similar experiences. These mentors offer guidance and understanding to those currently navigating cancer treatment, ensuring that no one goes through the journey alone. Cancer Hope Network has grown from a local initiative to a national network of around 500 trained mentors. These mentors are volunteers who have completed treatment or have served as caregivers. They represent a wide range of cancer types and life experiences, allowing for personalized matches between mentors and those seeking support. Earlier this Summer, the Cancer Hope Network and the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center launched a new partnership, called the M.A.P.S. program (Mentorship and Peer Support for Patients and Caregivers). This initiative is designed to recruit mentors from within the Johns Hopkins community to provide support to newly diagnosed patients and their families.

Actor Kevin James Speaks Up for Disabled People, Says Only God Should Decide When Life EndsLifeNews.com, By Terri Schiavo Life & Hope Network, on Jan 25, 2024https://www.lifenews.com/2024/01/25/actor-kevin-james-speaks-up-for-disabled-people-says-only-god-should-decide-when-life-ends/A discussion prompted by actor Kevin James' stance on end-of-life autonomy, particularly in light of the infamous Terry Schiavo case. James advocates for God as the sole determinant of when a person's life ends, reflecting a traditional religious view. However, his position clashes with evolving societal norms that prioritize individual decision-making and compassionate choices in matters of life support and end-of-life care. The panel scrutinizes James' stance, highlighting the outdated and potentially dangerous implications of imposing religious beliefs on medical decisions.Phoebe shares her perspective as someone who remembers the Terry Schiavo case being sensationalized in the media, viewing it as emblematic of the intersection between religious conservatism and medical ethics. She questions the relevance of reviving such a dated case and criticizes the politicization and sensationalism surrounding it.Infidel64 adds depth to the discussion by highlighting the complexities of religious beliefs, particularly within the context of Catholicism's stance on suicide and martyrdom. He emphasizes the importance of personal autonomy in medical decision-making and advocates for a society that protects the rights of individuals, including the option of euthanasia for those who choose it.The panel also discusses the significance of advanced directives, emphasizing the importance of proactive planning for end-of-life care. They stress the need for open conversations about death and medical preferences among loved ones and advocate for legal mechanisms that uphold individual autonomy in healthcare decisions.Ultimately, the discussion underscores the importance of respecting personal autonomy and diverse perspectives in navigating complex ethical dilemmas surrounding end-of-life care.The Non-Prophets Episode 23.06.1 on February 12, 2024 with Kelley Laughlin, Phoebe Rose, Blatant Atheist, and Infidel64.

In this episode of Through the Hard, we dive into the topic of control and over-functioning in parenting. It's something many of us struggle with, and it can have negative effects on our teens. I often find myself in that same place, trying to control every aspect of my teen's life, thinking it is the best way to protect them. But I'm learning that it's so important to find a balance. Our teens need some freedom to make their own choices and learn from their mistakes.That's where the concept of balanced oversight comes in. Finding that sweet spot between being too controlling and not being involved enough. Providing guidance and support without taking over their lives. Listen as we discuss seven practical tips to help you practice finding a balance between control and your own freedom.

Friend, today, we're going to delve into a topic that might tug at the heartstrings a bit – the profound importance of vulnerability in parenting, particularly during these challenging teenage years. Together, we'll dive a little deeper into this concept I like to call "heart talk." A gentle, intimate dialogue rooted in trust and authenticity, a space where we can really connect with our teens. Because, you see, parenting during these years can be quite a tender journey.You and I are going to explore those areas where our teens find it tough to open up to us. It's a reminder for us, as parents, to acknowledge our own imperfections, set expectations that are filled with compassion, and, most importantly, honor the boundaries our teens set.Our teens are navigating a maze of changes and challenges, and we have the opportunity to be a comforting presence – a lighthouse guiding them through the waves. It's a call for us to understand that vulnerability isn't a weakness; it's a strength that fosters profound connections.Let's embrace the reality that parenting teenagers is no easy feat. Through the mist of discomfort, we are learning to be there for our teens with open hearts and arms. So, mama, let's gently step into the realm of vulnerability. Let's open up those channels of communication, even if it feels heavy. Because in those quiet, somber conversations lies the potential for healing and understanding.

We all know that our teens are heavily influenced by their peers, technology, and social media. However, it's essential for us to remember that our voices still hold immense value in their lives. We need to find ways to connect and communicate effectively with them.A key aspect we focus on is modeling healthy communication and empathy. Empathy acts as the anchor line that connects us in our communication with our teens. By understanding their perspective and showing empathy, we can build a stronger bond with them.Today's teens face numerous challenges and pressures, and it's our responsibility as parents to provide understanding and empathy. We need to create an environment where they feel safe to open up and share their thoughts and feelings.Building trust and open communication is vital. So, let's embark on this journey together, exploring the world of communication with our teens. By adapting to the changing dynamics, understanding the generation gap, and practicing empathy, we can strengthen our relationships and guide our teens through the hard times.Register for the 4 Principles for Fighting Fear workshop HEREAdditional Resources:Pathways website: https://pathwaystohopenetwork.org/ (Subscribe for weekly encouragement) Local and national resources: https://pathwaystohopenetwork.org/resources/ Blog: https://pathwaystohopenetwork.org/blog-2/ FAQ: https://pathwaystohopenetwork.org/f-a-q/ ___________________________________________________________________________Parenting Teens Through The Hard from Unyielding is brought to you by Pathways to Hope Network.

Show-notes Episode 44Title: From Seed to Harvest: Finding Peace in The Process of Parenting TeensOur children are like flowers. They all bloom at different times. Maybe it's not their season? Maybe it is? Maybe all their growth is happening in the roots? Maybe they need more of something? Maybe they need less?Our job is to tend the garden and wait.This summer, in my stroll around the yard, I took a little inventory of how each of my plants was doing. I noticed the ones that seemed a little further along this year than they were this time last year and the ones that, after several years, were still not producing the way I thought they should. And suddenly, I was so struck by how much parenting teens and young adults is like tending a garden that I knew I had to share it with you. Join us as we discuss... Your child's zone. Starting at ground level. How to soften the seed. The DANGERS of overwatering. Getting to the roots.

At this stage, our skills are developing and becoming ingrained in us through repetition. They begin to line up with what feels right to us. Our actions and reactions, even if they don't always yield the results we hope for, are more incongruent with what's important to us, and it starts to feel more natural and effortless.Join us to learn more about….

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend – the guy who got me into podcasting in the first place! – Matt Pana to talk about the Kingdom of God. Matt was raised Catholic in a Filipino-American household but drifted into Evangelical Christianity as a young adult. He came enthusiastically back into the practice of Catholicism after being exposed to Catholic apologists like Patrick Madrid and Scott Hahn and, today, joins me to share a bit about that journey and how the Catholic Church understands, and embodies, what Jesus describes as the "Kingdom of God."
