"I think just the nature of having a shelter that's supportive and animal control has really expedited this as a success…And I think that made a big difference in the city." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund. Stacy LeBaron talks with Vanessa Forney, founder and president of Bay Area Cats, an organization in Sunnyvale, California focused on spay neuter for pets and trap neuter return. Since stumbling upon a kitten in her neighborhood in 2020, Vanessa has personally trapped over 2,500 cats and kittens, built an efficient volunteer trapping team, and formed a 501(c)(3) that has helped spay/neuter thousands of cats every year. In this episode, Vanessa shares how she quickly moved from rescue-reactive thinking to strategic targeted TNR, focusing her efforts on Sunnyvale and achieving remarkable results through mass trapping techniques and neighborhood-wide approaches. She discusses the importance of data collection, building collaborative relationships with animal control and open intake shelters, and how her organization achieved over 40% reduction in combined shelter intake and TNR program cats between 2022 and 2024. Vanessa also explains the typical timeline for seeing impact (including the initial uptick in requests during the first 12-18 months), the evolution of a TNR organization through different life stages, and why addressing pet spay/neuter is critical for long-term sustainability. Listeners will come away understanding that successful targeted TNR requires patience, collaboration, detailed record-keeping, and a multi-layered approach that addresses both community cats and owned pets. Vanessa's story demonstrates that even young organizations can make significant measurable impact when they focus their resources strategically, build strong community partnerships, and create volunteer networks that make the work sustainable rather than isolating.

Joining us for this episode of Diverse Thinking Different Learning is Rana Lustyan! Rana Lustyan is the founder of Growing Minds Coaching, where she helps students with learning differences develop confidence, independence, and academic achievement. She combines strength-based coaching, neuroscience-informed methods, and practical executive function tools to create personalized routines that last. Rana shares her personal journey with ADHD and how it inspired her to help students, especially girls and young women, build the essential life skills needed for lasting confidence and independence. She explains that executive functioning coaching is distinct from educational therapy or tutoring; it is a dynamic, strengths-based approach that helps individuals develop practical skills around planning, organization, time management, task initiation, and more. Rana's POSITIVE acronym outlines the key areas of focus, from prioritizing goals to evaluating progress! The coaching process involves an in-depth intake to understand the student's unique challenges and strengths, followed by weekly 45-minute sessions and regular accountability check-ins. Rana highlights the importance of building trust and meeting the student where they are, often sharing her own experiences to help them feel understood and supported. Rana's approach includes periodic family team meetings to celebrate wins and address any additional concerns, with the ultimate goal of autonomy and equipping students with the tools to manage their lives independently. She also discusses the phasing-out process, where support is gradually reduced as the student gains confidence and mastery. Whether struggling with procrastination, perfectionism, or emotional regulation, Rana's executive functioning coaching can be helpful, especially for girls and young women with ADHD. Show Notes: [3:02] - Rana explains how executive function coaching builds strengths-based strategies for planning, time management, autonomy, and lifelong resilience. [6:33] - Girls often go undiagnosed with ADHD, masking symptoms through perfectionism, overwork, and internal hyperactivity. [8:54] - Acronyms such as POSITIVE help students remember EF skills such as planning, self-advocacy, and initiation. [11:39] - Task initiation, time management, and visualization strategies support students in overcoming procrastination and distractions. [14:36] - Intake sessions can help gather detailed family, academic, and personal context to build trust and customize coaching. [16:14] - Rana argues that students gain confidence via productive first sessions and ongoing check-ins between weekly meetings. [18:45] - As a coach, Rana validates feelings while guiding students toward solutions parents often mishandle. [20:55] - Executive function struggles may include procrastination, perfectionism, rigidity, emotional regulation issues, and burnout risks. [23:56] - Misinterpreting EF challenges as laziness or lack of motivation delays vital support, especially for girls. [25:19] - Rana argues that family team meetings celebrate student wins, build autonomy, and align goals between parents and children. [28:24] - Rana's 16-session model promotes autonomy via flexible, individualized coaching cycles. [31:07] - EF coaching normalizes struggles, strengthens family bonds, and equips students for lifelong growth.

Our watches gave us some harsh (but necessary) feedback before this amazing episode! The main science topics were quick hitter studies on massive one-time Vitamin D intake, short-term heat acclimation protocols, and sodium bicarb. If you combine all of the protocols at once, that's what we call a PARTY.We also talked about the World Trail Champs, which saw the highest-scored performances of all time. Our discussion included a hot take on course choices that is probably wrong and please don't tell anyone we said it. And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: the total domination of the sleepwithmegan25 code, training readiness scores in a time of teething, our reactions to comments on the documentary “Nothing to Lose,” why Nomio is the supplement sweeping Europe, the improbable win at the women's cycling World Champs, and Strava's IPO announcement, plus a Q+A on the high-carb life, the mountain legs strength routine, long-term heat training, time equivalents for cross training, training principles for less fast runners, and self-talk.Yes, David brutally mangled a 50 Cent reference, proceeding to call back the mistaken reference multiple times.

Erin Stern, BCBA, Founder and President of STEPS Behavioral Health, shares how her clinic takes an integrative approach by combining ABA, Speech, OT, and PT to support early learners. With a strong focus on flexibility and tailoring every goal to the individual, Erin highlights the importance of thoughtful intake and assessment, working closely with families, preparing children for school, and weaving in everyday experiences and milestones.Erin discusses the clinic's Early Steps Program, which supports newly diagnosed learners through Kindergarten and beyond. With no “hard lines,” the focus is always on finding the right placement, environment, and balance of clinic- and home-based services. Erin explains how determining intervention hours involves multiple factors—age, behaviors, skill needs, family dynamics, and insurance—while maintaining flexibility to meet each learner's individual needs.Our conversation also highlights the value of providers immersing themselves in a learner's AAC system, staying committed to professional growth, and never forgetting the power of play. As Erin reminds us, “Don't forget to play,” because natural learning and connection thrive in those moments.#autism #speechtherapy What's Inside:STEPS Behavioral Health and the Early Steps Program.Tailoring early intervention to individual learner needs.Important factors to consider when determining intervention hours.Why play is one of the most important factors of a learner's success.Mentioned In This Episode:Stepsbh.comJoin the aba speech connection ABA Speech: Home

So what happens when trans youth are old enough for puberty blockers? What do they have to go through to get access to that care? Let me tell you how difficult it was for me, as an adult, and you'll maybe see how many barriers trans kids actually face. And we discuss the lengths good parents will go to in order to keep their kids safe. Karla, the cis mom of a trans kid, returns to discuss finding your humanity.

A new study in the journal Food Quality and Preference investigated if increasing the spiciness of a meal could influence eating behaviors and reduce how much food people consume. In a series of experiments, researchers had adults eat either a mild or a spicy version of beef chili or chicken tikka masala in a lab setting. The results were significant: when participants ate the spicy beef chili, they consumed 11% less food (about 46 grams) and ate 11% more slowly compared to when they ate the mild version. A similar outcome was observed with a reformulated chicken tikka masala, where the spicy version led to an 18% reduction in food intake (about 64 grams) and a 17% slower eating rate. Interestingly, this reduction in consumption was not because participants liked the spicy food less or drank more water. The findings suggest that the “oral burn” from capsaicin—the active component in chili peppers—directly leads to slower eating and bite rates, which in turn reduces overall food and energy intake.DisclaimersThis information is for educational purposes only and should not be interpreted as medical advice.The study discussed was conducted on adults in a controlled laboratory setting.

Part one of twoHave you ever sworn off sugar, only to end up eating more of it once it was “off-limits”? In this first official episode of Trust Yourself with Food, Gillian unpacks why common strategies for controlling sugar - like cutting it out completely, keeping it out of the house, or using rigid food rules....tend to backfire.This conversation is NOT about fear mongering sugar or telling you how much you should be eating- it's about the psychology of scarcity, all-or-nothing thinking, and how hidden weight-loss pressures often drive our desire to quit sugar.You'll leave this episode with practical reflection prompts to help you decide what a reasonable sugar intake looks like for your life... without rules, guilt, or constant mental chatter.What you'll learn in this episode:Why past sugar-control attempts haven't worked long-termHow scarcity and “screw it” thinking fuel cravings and overeatingThe link between sugar restriction and hidden weight-loss goals3 reflection prompts to reset your relationship with sweets

DSD 6.8 | That is where you should put your money For years researchers have sought out to better understand control mechanisms for a successful transition into lactation from the dry period. We've learned changing body condition score during the dry period is not acceptable, but what if it changes during late lactation? How does this impact energy partitioning for the next lactation? Well managed high producing cows with high fertility might find themselves bred back in less than the “textbook ideal” condition score heading into the dry period. Can we alter the late lactation ration to successfully increase condition with little impact? Dr. Laura Hernandez from the University of Wisconsin worked with a team of researchers at the Forage Center to better understand what is happening if high energy is fed late in lactation through extensive data collection to determine the possible potential carry over effects for subsequent lactations. Listen into this compelling discussion as we learn more about the “black box” we know as the transition dairy cow and what phase to invest in to maximize your return.

Scientists tracked 829 people for 20 years and discovered that one “embarrassingly named” nutrient, Spermidine, reduced death rates by nearly 40%. This polyamine doesn't just slow aging, it literally stabilises your DNA and activates cellular repair pathways that tell your cells when to grow, heal, and clean house. You can get therapeutic levels from shitake mushrooms, wheat germ, or fermented foods like kimchi, basically turning your dinner plate into an anti-aging protocol.

Most lawyers focus on getting more leads while 97% are losing money at the most critical step: intake conversion. If you're not responding in under 1 minute, following up 12+ times in the first week, or using AI-powered personalization, you're already behind.Sam Mollaei and Neil Tyra reveal the Ultimate Intake Conversion Checklist—the exact strategies top firms use to double client sign-ups in 30-60 days. From weekend coverage strategies to ChatGPT-powered personalization, this episode stops leads from slipping through the cracks.Key Takeaways from Sam and Neil:1. Weekend and Off-Hours CoverageEnsure virtual intakers call leads between 5-9 PM and on weekends, using this "blue ocean" strategy to maximize availability and significantly boost sign-ups.2. Respond to Leads Within 1 MinuteCall leads immediately—waiting even five minutes lowers conversion rates—while automating instant text messages to acknowledge inquiries and maintain engagement.3. Consistent and Persistent Follow-Up StrategyCall leads at least 12 times in the first week, with three daily calls for the first three days, reinforced by automated texts, emails, and personalized video messages.4. Dedicated Intake Team Focused on Lead ConversionUse trained intake specialists—not general virtual receptionists—to handle lead qualification, consultations, and follow-ups, ensuring higher conversions and better client experiences.5. Leverage Technology for Automation and TrackingUse a CRM with automated workflows for lead distribution, reminders, and follow-ups, while tracking "speed to lead" metrics to prevent delays and optimize intake performance.6. Qualify and Personalize Lead Interactions With ChatGPTFeed lead data into AI tools like ChatGPT via Zapier to generate hyper-personalized initial texts that reference case details, building trust, improving response rates, and increasing conversions."A lot of people underestimate the work it takes to make intake successful…. It's a lot of work, and it's ongoing—it doesn't end." — Sam Mollaei"Whenever we do that near-immediate response, almost the first words out of the prospective client's mouth are—'Oh my God...thanks for calling me back so quickly.' It's just—they're not used to that type of customer response—and that sets you apart from people who don't." — Neil Tyra
