Today we are speaking with Giizh Sarah Agaton Howes. Howes is an award-winning Anishinaabe creator, artist and organizer from Fond Du Lac reservation and Muscogree Creek. She's the CEO of Heart Berry, a contemporary Ojibwe Design brand that offers wool blankets, apparel, gifts and accessories rooted in Howes's beadwork and Ojibwe floral designs. Giizh was raised by an artist mother but never thought about herself as one until she realized art wasn't just paintings in a museum but the cultural traditions from her Ojibwe community. She started with beading and moccasin making. That led to her teaching workshops so others could become cultural makers too. She shares the origin story of Heart Berry, which grew out of a desire to see Ojibwe designs translated into contemporary apparel and to take back the wool blanket as a Native craft. She also talks about a recent mural project on the Cloquet bandshell, finding art that we love and that loves us back, and course correcting after a wrong turn. Giizh lives in Sawyer with her family. These days, she's experiencing the bittersweet emotions of a parent who has recently seen her first child graduate from high school.

This week on Overdrive Radio we track back to the Mid-America Trucking Show and the big news for the trucking community from podcast sponsor Howes. The Howes Hall of Fame added its 12th member when it honored Mother Trucker Yoga proprietor and fitness and wellness coach Hope Zvara at the show. You heard part of Zvara's story when she was featured here on Overdrive Radio in conversation with Long Haul Paul Marhoefer a couple years back: https://www.overdriveonline.com/overdrive-radio/podcast/15448049/the-qualityoflife-benefits-of-movement-introducing-hope-zvara There, queried about the scourge of anxiety, depression and other mental health ailments throughout America, she asked a simple question -- "What's if it's not a mental health crisis? What if it's a movement crisis?" In that podcast, and here, she detailed her step-by-step program for fitness through basic yoga techniques drivers can do in-cab, around the truck, at points throughout a day for an approachable journey toward better physical health. Mental health, too. Zvara well knows the connections between the two and isn't shy of stressing them routinely with those she works with. She's combated mental stressors of various natures in her own life, using yoga practice toward that end. And she's now worked with an untold number of individual truck drivers to help them achieve their own goals. We got a little tutorial in her brand of “no mat necessary" yoga at the start of the Trucking Solutions Group's talk in the East Hall out at MATS on the final day. She led attendees through a series of stretches aimed simply at relieving the neck and upper-body tension so many of us face after a long day at the wheel or, in my case, typing away at the desk. Today on the podcast, hear the audio of Zvara's instruction on that mini-routine at the tail end, and otherwise buckle up for her story of helping truckers help themselves in health and wellness. And though Zvara's program is designed for simplicity, she's also well aware it's not exactly a simple matter for any of us. Hear how yoga and general phyiscal well-being got her through her own crisis, and into the work for which she's now honored as the latest member the Howes Hall of Fame. Nominate a deserving trucking industry participant for the Hall yourself, and browse all so honored todate, via https://howesproducts.com/hof Find Hope Zvara's Mother Trucker Yoga effort at this link, where today you can download a free guide to 11 helpful stretches: https://mothertruckeryoga.com

Anton Howes writes the brilliant Age of Invention substack. We were supposed to talk about the history of salt and its powerful impact on people and states.

Highly recommended. And also the documentary about salt production in My Name is Salt which is just wonderful.You can send a message to the show/feedback by clicking here.

In episode 83 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe & Keshia discuss a polarising, and at times difficulty to tackle, topic: Abortion. The aim is to shine a light on the current situation taking place in Australia that we, personally, didn't know anything about. Dr. Joanna Howe who courageously speaks on failed abortions and the side of abortion many of us do not know about, was introduced to us and has made a huge impact on us both. Dr Joanna Howe is a Professor of Law at the University of Adelaide and a consultant with Harmers Workplace Lawyers. She holds a Doctorate of Philosophy in Law from the University of Oxford where she studied as a Rhodes Scholar. We delve into the deeply complex and controversial issue of late-term abortion and the implications of Australia's proposed Birth Equality Bill. She sheds light on the realities surrounding failed abortions, the laws that govern them, and the ethical questions they raise. Dr. Howe also shares real-life cases that reveal the emotional and medical complexities of abortion, emphasizing the need for compassion, informed choice, and a deeper recognition of the humanity of unborn babies. This discussion explores the care that should be required for newborns who survive abortion procedures, the psychological toll on mothers, and the cultural and systemic factors contributing to the prevalence of abortion. Dr. Howe advocates for open communication, education, and support systems to empower women and reduce the number of abortions through awareness and informed decision-making. Key Takeaways: - Abortion, particularly in the second and third trimesters, can sometimes fail, resulting in babies being born alive. - The **Birth Equality Bill** seeks to ensure that these babies receive the same medical care as any other newborn. - Laws governing late-term abortion vary across Australia, with all states permitting abortion up to birth for psychosocial reasons. - Many late-term abortions are performed on healthy babies, and the procedures can be distressing for both medical staff and mothers. - Informed consent is crucial, yet many women are not fully aware of the possibility of their baby being born alive or the details of the procedure. - Dr. Howe highlights the need for cultural change and education to address misconceptions and provide women with better support during crisis pregnancies. - Providing care and dignity to newborns born alive during abortion procedures is essential. - Societal recognition of the responsibilities of parenthood, starting at conception, is necessary to foster a culture of respect for life. - Education about abortion methods and their implications is vital to empower young people to make informed decisions. This conversation challenges polarizing narratives and underscores the importance of nuanced, empathetic discussions about abortion, women's rights, and societal responsibilities. Dr. Howe's insights provide a compassionate and balanced perspective on a sensitive issue, encouraging dialogue and reflection.

This discussion explores the care that should be required for newborns who survive abortion procedures, the psychological toll on mothers, and the cultural and systemic factors contributing to the prevalence of abortion. Dr. Howe advocates for open communication, education, and support systems to empower women and reduce the number of abortions through awareness and informed decision-making. Key Takeaways: - Abortion, particularly in the second and third trimesters, can sometimes fail, resulting in babies being born alive. - The **Birth Equality Bill** seeks to ensure that these babies receive the same medical care as any other newborn. - Laws governing late-term abortion vary across Australia, with all states permitting abortion up to birth for psychosocial reasons. - Many late-term abortions are performed on healthy babies, and the procedures can be distressing for both medical staff and mothers. - Informed consent is crucial, yet many women are not fully aware of the possibility of their baby being born alive or the details of the procedure. - Dr. Howe highlights the need for cultural change and education to address misconceptions and provide women with better support during crisis pregnancies. - Providing care and dignity to newborns born alive during abortion procedures is essential. - Societal recognition of the responsibilities of parenthood, starting at conception, is necessary to foster a culture of respect for life. - Education about abortion methods and their implications is vital to empower young people to make informed decisions. This conversation challenges polarizing narratives and underscores the importance of nuanced, empathetic discussions about abortion, women's rights, and societal responsibilities. Dr. Howe's insights provide a compassionate and balanced perspective on a sensitive issue, encouraging dialogue and reflection.
