On this episode we discuss...

In TRANSITION, Australian filmmaker and journalist Jordan Bryon gives the world an entirely different view of the Taliban regime during the fall of Afghanistan. Having gained incredible access to a Taliban unit, Bryon and his videographer, Teddy, give an authentic view of life under their oppressive regime. However, at the same time, Bryon's journey with the military also coincides with his own physical transformation as a trans man. Out of concern for their lives, Bryon conceals his physiology in order to be accepted as a man, all the while struggling with the unique moral and ethical dilemma of his situation. As he gains more freedom during his transition, Bryon's film also grapples with the oppression of women who attempt to find freedom themselves under the Taliban regime. In this 1on1, we speak to Bryon and co-director Monica Villamizar about living amongst the Taliban and being 'seen how you feel'.

What an absolute delight it was to finally reconnect with friend, transition coach, healer, teacher, and champion of ceremony - Treecia Ramey! Her candid opening response of "Is it okay if I say I haven't got a clue. . .?" opened the door to a rich and enthusiastic discussion on being okay with living in the "I don't know", being in transition, and the importance of ceremony in our lives. Treecia talked about how her recent "Reconnect Now - No More Waiting!" online Summit came out of her passion for ceremony, and how feeling alone, depressed, even abandoned by the Divine, all led her to put together this incredible event so people all over the world could acknowledge, celebrate, and reconnect to the authentic self within, and to those in our lives. We talked shadow work, supporting family and friends through challenges, the meaning and value of ceremony for life events that often go unacknowledged, the connection between paganism and ceremony, and how triggers inform us. We also talked about the value of preparing for ceremony, and the commonality in what we value and want for our families, communities, and ourselves. Treecia also talked about her experience as a parent to a transgender person, which led to discussion of masculine and feminine energy, language, narrative, scripts, the drama triangle, and the concentric circles of perspective. This, and so much more...! Plus, there's the super fun Rapid Fire Question Round at the end! A new episode posted at least twice a month!

Episode 82 - Resurrection: FROM LIFE INTO LIFE - 10-19-21 - Edward and Anne - www.sonsofgod.com

Warning - this episode contains explicit language. How wonderful it is when you meet someone new and immediately feel comfortable, at ease, and the conversation just flows! This is exactly what Glenn and I experienced in our latest episode with the delightful, thoughtful, questioning, and "super easy and fun to hang out with" Holly McCorriston. Holly's response of "I am a channel through which Universal energy expresses itself" was the jumping off point for an expansive, engaging, and enriching conversation on love, intuition, Knowing (with a capital "K"), critical thinking, and how broken down systems make it challenging for receivers and givers to support and feel supported. A former pharmacist, Holly spoke about how she used to be one of those "experts in the white lab coat." Over time, she discovered that the she had so much more to offer than what she was able to do as a pharmacist, so eventually gave up her licence, following her intuition to become a transformational coach to women on their journeys of self-discovery and empowerment. We talked about being scared to speak, tuning into what feels good vs. what doesn't, self-awareness, self-responsibility, solutions, support, gratitude, being in transition, impending motherhood, binary thinking, holding space for ourselves and others, breathing, and turning attention within rather than always looking outside ourselves for guidance. This, and so much more...! Plus, there's the super fun Rapid Fire Question Round at the end! A new episode posted at least twice a month!

In the ninth chapter of Acts, Luke details the conversion story of Paul from an ardent persecutor of Christians to a devout follower of Christ. What does Paul's conversion tell us about God's willingness to meet us where we are? We invite you to listen as Pastor Matthew Piersanti continues our series from the New Testament book of Acts titled, "In Transition..."

Senior Pastor Alan Clayton of The Ark Church in Conroe, TX shares his mistakes, his journey and his encouragement for successfully G.R.O.W.ing In Transition.

Jesus invited His disciples to go the other side of the Sea of Galilee. While they were in transition, they encountered a storm so severe that it caused experienced sea farers to be afraid. Jesus, unfazed by the storm, responded to the fear and faithlessness of His disciples and came to their rescue. What kind of transition are you in right now? Has God given you an invitation to launch out in the deep? You will encounter storms and be challenged to lose faith in the Word God spoke. Pastor Matt teaches us the principles to follow when you're In Transition.

Good Morning Veterans, Family, and Friends, and Everyone who has returned back to listen in on the SIXTH EPISODE of the Veteran Doctor. On this week's podcast, we will discuss More New Year’s Resolutions for Veterans and dig into the topic of Veteran Suicide. We have also will continue to fun facts with our section on UBI (Useful Bits of Information) and Veteran News. Later I will also be discussing my New Book that is coming out soon, My Veteran Blog, and the Podcast Patron/Sponsorship Program, so stick around for so great stuff to come. Welcome back to another month of fun and festivities. I hope the holidays have treated you well. Every year we get to this moment when we tell ourselves we are going to change some things in the coming year to better ourselves. The resolutions, or goals, are often not obtained due to lofty tasks and not being carefully thought out or planned in how they will be executed; like that of a military mission. Some common resolutions that many veterans look to achieve are categories of health, financial, mental health/happiness, and sharing or helping other veterans. I will look deeper into these goals to see if any of these things interest you as a focus of self-improvement in your upcoming year. Health Military veterans have always been healthy-minded individuals that have usually placed it as an essential part of their lives. It is expected that as the years' pass, many veterans forget about their previous military fitness regimens. Unfortunately, aging and life impact us all, but it doesn’t have to be quite so brutal if we take care of ourselves through exercise and eating right. Remember back when you started basic training, and you made (or were forced) to make a resolution to create a healthy routine. This does not mean you have to do 1000 pushup and sit-ups in the middle of the hot sun, but instead, you should start small and build up from there. Vow to make your health and fitness a priority in your life and a part of your daily routine. It is hard to resist the healthy feeling you will have when you are currently ill and overweight from an inactive lifestyle. So ultimately, set a small, realistic goal. Even if you just start walking 15 to 20 minutes a day, then built up from there in moderation, it will be worth it in the end. Do it for yourself. You will find that you will start feeling better and have more energy if you eat right and start taking better care of yourself. Financial Taking care of your body is only one part of the equation; taking care of your wallet is another part. This is an area that is sometimes very difficult for many people. Not everyone has the ability or luxury to save money, but there are a few simple things that you can do with your money to make it stretch further. Finding coupons is an easy way to save your hard-earned cash. Many people do not realize that coupons are everywhere, like the daily newspaper and even online, that applied to nearly every type of purchase. Another way to save more money is through Groupon. This resource allows you to save a lot of money in Las Vegas. Spending time to look up coupons online can save you thousands of dollars a year. There are also many discounts throughout the Las Vegas area as long as you research and ask. If they say “no,” then say respectfully “thank you.” It doesn’t hurt to inquire about a military discount. There are more discounts out there than you think. Some very recognizable ones are Vettix.org. These are free concerts, shows, and event tickets for veterans. Another benefit for veterans is Free National Parks Pass for veterans at www.nps.gov/planyourvisit/passes for free passes to any national park-like Lake Mead. Another great local resource is lv.houseseats.com to great show seats for local Las Vegas shows. There is a nominal fee for the annual membership, but it is well worth the cost and pays for itself upon the first use. Take the extra time to search for savings, and your wallet will thank you. You will also have fun too. Mental Health / Happiness This should be the easiest one, but for many, it is not. For veterans suffering from PTSD, or poor Mental Wellness, finding happiness can often be extremely challenging. A large percentage of veterans in the United States continue to struggle with the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), while society continues to look for ways to help these heroes. PTSD is diagnosed as being a mental health issue that results from having experienced or witnessed traumatic events and can result in symptoms of severe anxiety, depression, hypervigilance, insomnia, agitation, flashbacks, isolation, and other harmful side-effects. PTSD can debilitate a veteran's work, family, and social life to a level of being nonfunctional. Unfortunately, PTSD can be linked to the high suicide rate for U.S. veterans. Recent studies by the VA estimate that 20 veterans commit suicide every day. Even though veterans represent only 9% of the population, they make up 18% of Americans who commit suicide. Society has begun to recognize that the U.S. veteran population needs help overcome the residual effects of war. Many times, some veterans need to know that there are many similar people out there that have traveled, and made it through, similar experiences of PTSD. A person living with PTSD never knows when a flashback might occur, or when something may trigger the memories, and what the physical reactions may be. Sometimes keeping up a happy appearance during the bout of depression can be just as exhausting and too much to handle as the original traumatic experience. There is a wide range of 24-hour veteran crisis hotlines available for veterans who find themselves seriously struggling with these challenges. Any veteran can call toll free: 1-800-273-8255 and press “1” to reach someone immediately through the VA’s crisis line; their website also has confidential online chat and text options, as well as help for veterans with hearing impairment. In many cases, just allowing veterans to talk through your emotions or mental state can release them from the moment, and knowing that they are not alone can give them the strength they need. Sharing and helping other veterans Many veterans have an innate sense of duty to help other people. Why not help other veterans or share your time if you sense they are lonely. Take up a new indoor or outdoor hobby with them. Some veterans who are experiencing specific symptoms of PTSD – repetitive thoughts, racing mind, sensitivity to certain trigger noises, anxiety from being in crowds – can benefit from the peace acquired from hobbies. There is a wide range of hobbies and organizations that solely exist to help give veterans the chance to learn a new activity to quiet and heal the mind. Another great way of sharing is getting involved with dog adoption agencies that are involved with veterans. Dogs help offer the benefit of companionship without any judgments or expectations to veterans who are challenged with the isolation and irritability from PTSD. Dogs are naturally vigilant and help remove that anxiety from a veteran who is experiencing difficulty with sleep. Most pets enjoy giving, receiving affection, and are naturally soothing. Dogs also are dependent on their owners, making them the main reason for a veteran to hold on, knowing they need to care for their pet in the future. Whether a veteran requires a highly-trained dog that can detect and react to signs of severe PTSD or a simple companion dog that is always there to hang out, there are specific programs that can help veterans, typically at little or no cost. This year, we need to resolve to help one another find the happiest of times. If you know a veteran who is suffering from loss or mental health issues, get help immediately. Every day is precious and being mentally fit and happier is imperative. Sharing this information can also bring joy to others. If you know a veteran that needs some extra attention, help them out. Extending a helping hand, or paying it forward, makes the world a better place, and brings happiness to the heart. Hopefully, this past year has brought you some great fun and memories. I hope and wish that the upcoming year will bring even better ones. Have a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year. Veteran Suicide – A Very Real and Serious Issue For nearly a decade, the veteran community has called for action by our nation’s leaders to respond to the 20 veterans a day suicidal rate. The issue of veteran suicide is now its conversation in media coverage, national conversation, and a surge of government support. Yet, the problem of suicide continues. According to recent VA data, post-9/11 veterans between ages 18 to 34 have the highest rate of suicide. Though not always an indicator of suicide, mental health injuries continue to impact the post-9/11 generation. Surprisingly, 65% reported PTSD, and 58% anxiety, and 56% depression. The nation and VA continue struggling with mental health care and providers’ demands, two of the top VA staffing shortages. There has been some progress. In mental health injuries, 3 in 4 are seeking care for their injury. Over the past few years, increased progress has been made in the realm of suicide prevention and mental health. The VA’s plan for transitioning veterans’ targets those in the post-9/11 population as an increased risk of suicide and engage them before the moment of crisis. The VA has leveraged telemental health care to expand its reach and predictive analytics to target the top 0.1% of veterans at risk for suicide. According to a recently released report by the Department of Veterans Affairs veterans’ suicide rate ticked upwards recently despite increased public attention and funding on this problem. However, the latest data still does not represent the present conditions. According to mental health experts, this ongoing coronavirus pandemic may cause larger increases in the rates of mental distress and self-harm among veterans. Approximately from 2005 to 2018, the overall suicide rate has remained mostly unchanged, between 17 and 18 veterans a day. This rate is about 1.5 times that of the civilian population, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Among veterans, suicide rates remain about the same as the civilian U.S. population, but both are rising. Recent studies have announced that 325 active-duty members died by suicide in 2018, 40 more than in 2017, which has been the highest number since data started to be collected in 2001. Nobody knows why suicide rates continue to climb. Numerous public figures and awareness campaigns in recent years have quoted the figure of “20 or 22 a day” in reference to veterans’ suicide, but VA officials clarified that this estimate includes active-duty troops, guardsmen, and reservists. Many fault demographics—85 percent of the veterans are male, and men die by suicide more often than women. But we also know that even female veterans die by suicide at a higher rate than civilians. In the 2019 VA suicide prevention annual report, women veterans’ suicide rate was 2.2 times greater than that of civilian women. In addition to the demographics, factors of insomnia, depression, anxiety, sexual victimization, gun ownership, and substance use disorders also appear to contribute to suicidal risk. Older veterans also cope with aging, stress, or lingering effects of their military service that has never been addressed from the past, while many recently discharged veterans seem to have trouble with their relationships or transitioning challenges back to civilian life. Now, psychologists within and outside the VA are leading efforts to improve suicide risk assessment and research to better understand and prevent veteran suicide. They are also developing and piloting interventions at both individual and community levels to respond to this deadly issue. The recently released figures show that veterans who have died by suicide in 2018 were 6,435, up less than half a percent over the total veterans’ population. By comparison, there have been 7,032 troop deaths in conflict zones since 9/11, according to Defense Department statistics. Veterans suicides made up approximately 14 percent of the total suicides in America in 2018. In recent years, VA officials have emphasized that mental health challenges and suicidal thoughts are not specific to the veterans’ community. Findings highlighted the increasing problem of suicide among U.S. civilian adults and veterans and the need for suicide risk mitigation efforts. Despite the lack of general progress in suicide prevention among veterans, some improvements have been occurring. Data shows that the rate of suicide among veterans who have used VA health services has decreased, and it is an encouraging sign that the department continues to learn as its works and cares for veterans. The suicide rate among veterans who receive VA care has decreased by about 2.4 percent from 2017 to 2018. Data has shown that suicide is indeed preventable through clinical and community-based prevention interventions, along with research and surveillance within the VA. Although this report explains that suicide is preventable, suicide prevention is exceptionally complex. Recently, Senate lawmakers passed a package of nine VA-themed bills to improve the department’s suicide prevention efforts. However, new incentives for the safe storage of firearms among veterans were proposed. A VA suicide report shows that firearms were involved in more than 68 percent of veterans suicides in 2018 compared to 48 percent of the rest of the American population. A recent statistic has been widely quoted in the veteran community that highlights “22 veterans a day” committing suicide. It is a profoundly troubling statistic and has galvanized the veteran movement, both from inside the veteran communities and outside, to bring about a wide range of programming nationwide. The statistic, however, is widely misrepresented and misunderstood. This statement — 22 veterans a day commit suicide — while widely advertised by politicians, media outlets, veterans service organizations comes from the VA’s 2012 Suicide Data Report, which examined the deaths of 21 states from 1999 to 2011. The report found that the estimated number of veterans was compared from a sample number of states, and evidence was uncertain in veteran identifiers on U.S. death certificates. An example shows that veteran suicides’ average age was nearly 60 years old, not representative of the Iraq and Afghanistan veterans’ generation. A more current study surveyed 1.3 million veterans discharged between 2001 and 2009, discovering 1650 deployed veterans and 7703 non-deployed veteran deaths. Three hundred fifty-one of those were suicides among deployed veterans, and 1517 were suicides among non-deployed veterans. So, over nine years, there was one veteran suicide a day. Although veterans have a suicide rate 50 percent higher than those who have never served, the rate of suicide was slightly higher among veterans who never deployed, which suggests that these causes extend beyond the trauma of war. Coming home from war or merely transitioning from the military can be difficult. Various state and federal systems are set up to deal with this transition, how, ever cannot meet the need. Many people think that Veterans Affairs benefits programs like medical care, the G.I. Bill, the VA Home Loan, etc. are not helpful; however, they are. But, for the current generation of veterans from Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom, the suicide rate is closer to probably one a day and most likely occurs within the first three years of return. While this is still very troubling, it definitely is not 22. Although additional steps are needed to bridge the gap created by those who serve and those who have not, providing support for veterans to integrate back into their families and communities requires robust public-private partnerships. The veterans and the communities they live in are both responsible for bridging these gaps. The challenges of adjustment to transition, post-traumatic stress (PTSD), traumatic brain injuries (TBI), and physical disabilities need to be addressed mainly as these things result in barriers in education, health care, employment, and overall individual well-being. Overall, the majority of these needs are being met by combining different veteran-serving nonprofits and VA support; however, many veterans do not know how to navigate this process. Unfortunately, there are still visible gaps in the system. The veteran advocacy community needs to tailor our programs, especially in preventing suicides, to respond to this concerning data. One suicide is one suicide too many. Effective programs to help service members, veterans, and families transition to a positive life after service are necessary. Another requirement is promoting supportive community relationships for veterans. We need to be developing programs specifically to address veterans’ needs while maintaining preventative care for recently returned veterans. As veterans, we all pride ourselves on not making an emotional decision but the right decision. We should have the same commitment with veterans, which means we need to act within the framework of facts — advocacy and programming. Inadvertently, we are preying on a well-intentioned public by citing a misleading statistic to receive financial support, and that is not right. As veterans, we are far more resilient than we give ourselves credit. If we do our jobs and extend a helping hand to our fellow veterans, we can reduce that suicide rate and ensure our fellow veterans avoid despair in the future. Screening and Evaluation Expansion The VA started a universal screening for suicide risk in all primary-care settings beginning in October 2018 and has conducted over 3.8 million veteran screenings for suicide. The screening protocol has three parts: The first part consists of primary screening for suicide risk using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, typically conducted by a registered nurse. If that screening indicates a positive result, the nurse will handoff the veteran to the primary-care provider to conduct a secondary screening utilizing the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale. If that screening is positive, then a comprehensive suicide risk evaluation is conducted by the primary care provider. Another strategy deployed by the VA to help identify veterans at risk is REACH VET, a computer-based statistical risk algorithm that flags veterans based on their electronic health records. The program aims to identify and allow for preemptive care and support for veterans, usually before an individual even develops suicidal thoughts. Once a veteran has been recognized by REACH VET, the veteran’s VA mental health specialist calls to check up on them and conduct an additional evaluation to help determine any enhanced care is needed. Promising interventions After veterans at risk for suicide have been identified, the next step is to offer effective interventions. Over the past ten years, researchers have found that cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can reduce suicidal thoughts and behavior for veterans at risk. But limitations of these psychotherapy approaches is that they require multiple sessions and are not easily implemented. To get more direct care to these patients, a 20- to 40­-minute intervention called the Safety Planning Intervention, designed to provide veterans with different coping strategies, reduce access to potential suicide methods like firearms and lethal medications, and help them establish follow-up treatment. The research found that veterans who received this intervention were 45 percent less likely to attempt suicide with a safety plan in place for veterans. Other promising VA suicide prevention interventions focus on technology to help patients at risk for suicide. A smartphone app has shown success in increasing the veterans’ coping abilities with unpleasant thoughts and emotions. The Virtual Hope Box app is modeled after CBT methodology that uses a physical box containing images that remind patients of positive experiences, people who care about them, reasons for living, or coping resources. Users can upload personal photos, videos, songs, and quotes; complete relaxation exercises, puzzles, and guided meditations; additional tools include coping mechanisms, including self-created cards and a phone contact list. One of the essential aspects of suicide prevention among veterans is ensuring ongoing access to mental health care is available, particularly during transition times, when suicide risk can be higher. A unique way the military is working to ensure veterans have constant access to quality mental health care through its inTransition program, which offers expert coaching and assistance to find a new mental health provider for veterans. The program was created to ensure a good handoff between mental health providers when veterans are transitioning. During the initial months after separation from the military, there is an increased risk to psychological health. That is why inTransition targets service members receiving psychological care in the 12 months before their military transition. All veterans are eligible for the program, and inTransition will find any local veteran care, even in the absence of VA. Even though the program is new, results are beginning to show successful increases in the veteran transition to new mental health providers. Focusing on lethal means safety While much of the VA’s efforts around preventing suicide focus on identifying and treating mental health issues, some experts point to the preventative measure surrounding firearms. Research shows that around 70% of military suicides involve firearms, compared with approximately 50% of suicides in the U.S. general population. The military is more likely to own firearms and knows how to use them and that they are more likely to use firearms for the purpose of suicidal behavior as compared with the general population An example can be shown that the firearm storage practices of more than 1,600 active-duty personnel from 2015 and 2018 at military primary-care facilities across the U.S. They found that nearly 36% of participants reported owning a firearm, but less than a third of those said their firearms were safely stored. About half indicated their firearms were not safely stored. More effort is needed to encourage veterans to keep their firearms safely. Findings from nonmilitary populations suggest this is an additional way to reduce suicide risk. Locking up a gun will not prevent an argument with a spouse or overwhelming stress, but it could reduce the likelihood of these circumstances resulting in death. The Veterans Health Administration is educating clinicians about the importance of asking veterans about firearms and whether they are safely stored, educating veterans about having friends restrict their firearms access during stressful times. Using communities as support Psychologists are looking for ways to prevent military suicides by looking for outside of military solutions. According to the 2019 National Veteran Suicide Prevention Annual Report, the suicide rate of veterans receiving recent VA care increased by 1.3%, while the suicide rate among veterans who were not receiving current VA care increased by 11.8%. Another effort to provide a greater understanding of the role that communities play in their prevention of suicide is Operation Deep Dive. The study examines the community-based factors involved in suicide among veterans. It has developed a “sociocultural death investigation” tool to be used by researchers to conduct interviews with family members, colleagues, and friends of deceased veterans to better understand the lives of veterans who recently died by suicide. The goal is to identify the opportunities of prevention before a veteran enters any suicide situation. Operation Deep Dive ultimately looks to where the community might have prevention points to divert an individual on the trajectory to suicidal death. Hopefully this information has increased your knowledge on this serious social issue. If you a veteran in need or you know of a veteran who needs help please use the information below to help them. Veterans experiencing any mental health emergency should contact the Veteran Crisis Line at 1-800-273-8255 and select option 1 for VA staff personnel. Veterans or their family members can also text 838255 or visit VeteransCrisisLine.net for assistance.   References: Bare, S. (2015). The Truth About 22 Veteran Suicides A Day. Task and Purpose.

Megan's pregnancies were both so different.. a lot like her births! Her second birth story was so exciting and fast. She woke up IN TRANSITION! Can you imagine? I loved how her husband tried to complete their labor checklist, even when Megan only had 60 seconds between contractions. So cute! An underlying theme with the accidental unassisted births we have heard is how there seems to be a sense of peace that all of these mamas had. I love that the body and mind just know what to do and how to remain in a peaceful state, even with things going a little off plan! It's so inspirational and it's a good reminder that you CAN do it! My pregnancy update was a little out of order but you get the idea! :) I have changed midwives now and feel very much at ease with my decision! Megan loved the Boba Wrap for baby and muslin swaddle blankets. She's also one of our many Haakaa fans! (PS - Thanks Cait for my pre-baby Haakaa!! Can't wait to use it) Megan has a YouTube channel (featuring a beautiful video of her birth!), Instagram and a website, so there's plenty of ways to follow along on Megan's beautiful journey. As always, thanks for coming along for the ride with us. We appreciate you all!

Astrid Söderbergh Widding is a Professor of Cinema Studies and President of Stockholm University since 2013. Her keynote speech at LIBER 2019 is entitled ‘In Transition to Open Science – A Perspective from a President’s Point of View’. Astrid describes the talk as follows: “While it is easy to agree about the general vision of Open Science, the task to actually make the transition happen is not all that easy. Politicians, publishers, research financers, libraries, university managements – and last but not least the researchers themselves – all want, and need, to have their say. The divergent opinions on Plan S is but one example of the complexity of these questions. This paper attempts to outline some corner stones in a basic strategy for making the transition to Open Science possible, while also taking into consideration the stumbling stones that may threaten the process, from the perspective of university leadership.”

This week we bring you a special episode of InTransition, a one-on-one discussion with Genevieve Bell, cultural anthropologist and leading expert in artificial intelligence. Following her PhD in anthropology from Stanford University in 1998, Genevieve was offered a job at Intel through a chance meeting with a man in a bar at Palo Alto in 1998. This man in question had contacts at Intel who were busy setting up a social science research lab at the time and Genevieve was introduced to the world of anthropology in the high-tech industry. While Genevieve initially turned down this offer, as she was on track for tenure at Stanford, she later accepted. With a career spanning 20 years, Genevieve is now back in Canberra as a professor at the Australian National University. She has founded the Autonomy, Agency and Assurance Institute (3Ai), seeking to advance Australia’s knowledge of artificial intelligence and its role in the future. Discussed in this episode: Genevieve’s humble beginnings on anthropology sites around Australia and the world Her curiosity for change Her life growing up and the influence it had on her field of study “Accidentally” liking anthropology and later pursuing her PhD in that field Looking at her transition from working towards tenure at Stanford to corporate life at Intel A look at Silicon Valley in the late 1990s The importance of cultural anthropology in technology The role empathy plays in leadership and innovation People always come first, “if it isn’t meaningful, it doesn’t matter” “Why” is more powerful than “what” The future of AI Find contentgroup on Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter.

What do you do when a reality TV show takes the name of your town and uses it in a not-so savoury comment? Steer into the mess and use it as free publicity (and make the most of a Taylor Swift.gif). Shannah Hayley, Director of Marketing and Community Engagement for the city of Plano, TX, found this tactic useful in 2016 when a cast member of the Real Housewives of Dallas compared the city to an uncomfortable conversation. Knowing all eyes were on her, she used the opportunity to raise awareness for Plano, turning "it's a little Plano in here" into part of a clever marketing campaign.

Editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy and Clinical Editor Betsy Todd present the highlights of the June issue of the American Journal of Nursing. This month's cover photo evokes the isolation faced by victims of intimate partner violence. Our first CE, “Original Research: Intimate Partner Violence: The Knowledge, Attitudes, Beliefs, and Behaviors of Rural Health Care Providers,” analyzes the perceptions of rural health care providers regarding intimate partner violence prevalence, how comfortable they feel asking about emotional and physical abuse, and whether they feel able to help those women who disclose it. In our second CE, “Late and Long-Term Sequelae of Breast Cancer Treatment,” the authors provide an overview of the potentially debilitating physical problems that many breast cancer survivors experience after treatment, and address assessment and management strategies. Our next article, “Perspectives on Palliative Nursing: Palliative Chemotherapy,” addresses the use of chemotherapy in patients with end-stage cancer, and explores the nurse's role in discussing palliative options with patients. In “Transition to Practice: A New Nurse's First Days at the Bedside,” the author shares preparation tips for new nurses the first day on the job. “Special Feature: Nurses in the Civil Rights Movement” highlights the experiences of five nurses and one nursing student who fought for racial equality in the 1960s. In addition, there's News, Reflections, Drug Watch, Art of Nursing, and more.
