Dr. Laura welcomes Dr. Joel Davis Brown. Chief Visionary Officer of Pneumos LLC, sought-after speaker, and author of “The Souls of Queer Folk: How Understanding LGBTQ+ Culture Can Transform Your Leadership Practice”, to Where Work Meets Life™ to talk about his journey, leadership, and what we can all learn from the queer community. Joel discusses how he worked to uncover what it means to be queer from an ethnographic standpoint, validating and understanding the community, in order to understand their leadership lessons. Joel and Dr. Laura explore the nine queer leadership principles from Joel's book, including justice, verve, resilience, and interconnectedness, which are core leadership competencies everyone should embrace. Joel highlights the importance of gratitude, differentiating it from toxic positivity, the significance of coming out, how leaders must heal themselves to do transformational work, and how soulful leadership embodies the essence of an individual. The conversation illuminates the depths of experience in the queer community, the insights Joel has pulled from the community to write his book, and the power of interconnectedness and storytelling.“Leadership is a life book. It's not a business book. So leadership applies to how you lead yourself, how you interact and engage with your family, your spouse, your children, your community, and yes, with the world. And so in that space, I think there's an opportunity for people to learn and to benefit from the wisdom of the queer community, asking: how can I be better as an individual? How can I be a better version of myself? How can I have a better relationship with my family? How can I support my organization? And also, how can we create a better planet? So that's in essence what this book is about.” Dr. Joel Davis BrownAbout Dr. Joel Davis Brown Esq., Ed.D., CLC:Dr. Joel A.

In this moving episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat welcome back their close friend and regular guest, Birdy O'Sheedy, for a conversation that speaks to the soul of dog ownership. This time, Birdy introduces us to her new initiative, The Magic in Dogs. While it isn't a training program, it offers something equally valuable—a shift in perspective. Instead of focusing solely on control or obedience, Birdy invites us to reconnect with our dogs in a more present and intentional way. Throughout the episode, Birdy shares her experiences working with dogs and the people who love them. More importantly, she reflects on the quiet moments, the ones that often go unnoticed but ultimately shape the relationship. Rather than prescribing quick solutions, she encourages curiosity, awareness, and a deeper emotional bond. As the discussion unfolds, it becomes clear that building a strong relationship with your dog doesn't always require doing more. Sometimes, it simply requires seeing more, something Birdy explains beautifully. If you've ever felt like there was more to the bond you share with your dog, but you couldn't quite put it into words, this episode is for you. We hope it leaves you with something to reflect on and perhaps something to explore at themagicindogs.com Further Details Are you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

Joseph Bell was born Jewish and raised in Conservative Judaism in his hometown of Newton, Massachusetts (a suburb of Boston). At the age of 29, through a friend's loving encouragement, Joe finally relented to read the New Testament. He then recognized how very Jewish the New Testament is. Through a miraculous work of the Lord, Joe asked Yeshua to come into his life. Joe committed his life to Jesus and immediately dove into serving the Lord. Jews for Jesus invited him to study theology with Dr. Louis Goldberg and train as an evangelist; thus Joe began his formal ministry training in New York City — leading over 100 people to faith in Jesus that summer. In 2007 Joe received full ordination as a Jewish Rabbi by IAMCS[International Association of Messianic Congregations and Synagogues]. Joe currently serves as Executive Director of For Zion's Sake Ministries and as Rabbi of Ari Yehudah Messianic Congregation in the town of Bristol, Tennessee/Virginia.

Eating disorders are complicated illnesses that skyrocketed among teenagers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pediatrician Eva Trujillo says they "literally rewire the brain," decrease brain size, and make it harder to concentrate and to regulate emotions. Malnutrition can slow the metabolism, impact bone density and even lead to cardiac arrest. But Eva says, with the right treatment, people can also recover fully. She's the president of the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals and co-founder of Comenzar de Nuevo, a leading treatment facility in Latin America. Today on the show, host Emily Kwong talks about the physical and mental impacts of eating disorders with Dr. Trujillo and Moorea Friedmann, a teen mental health advocate and host of the podcast Balancing Act. Plus, how to recover in a world steeped in diet culture. Want us to cover more mental health topics? Tell us by emailing shortwave@npr.org! We'd love to know what you want to hear from us!

Welcome to the 500th episode of We Don't Die Radio! My guest today is Omar Perez, a father who was navigating the unimaginable grief of losing his young daughter, Chloe, a journey that left him a skeptic, feeling lost and without purpose. Then, just a few months ago, a sudden and dramatic turn of events brought him to the brink of death himself. In that space between worlds, he was given a gift: an experience so profound and filled with such undeniable evidence that it answered his deepest questions, transformed his understanding of life, and gave him an incredible new mission. Join us to hear Omar's full story, from his own critical illness with sepsis and collapsed lungs to his journey down a path on the other side. Learn about his beautiful, telepathic conversation with his daughter Khloe and the stunning, verifiable evidence involving their family dog that provided undeniable proof of his experience.

What was it like to be a Christian in the earliest centuries after the resurrection of Christ? How did theological thinking and the understandings of authority develop? Dr. George Kalantzis helps us consider the layers of complexity that early Christians wrestled with as the church was established. George points out the important place of canon, creeds, apostolicity and ethics, underpinned by submission to the Holy Spirit. Born and raised in Athens, Greece, George brings a unique perspective to the study of the patristic period, so bring your questions into the classroom for “The First Christian Centuries” (July 28–Aug 1). You can also catch his Evening Public Lecture on July 28 at 7:30 pm: Migration and Refugees (and the Re-humanizing Role of the Church).Note: At 49:50, Dr. Kalantzis references Project 1611, but he intended to say Project 1619 and the 1776 Commission when reflecting on competing historical narratives in the United States.George's BioDr. George Kalantzis is Professor of Theology and Director of The Wheaton Center for Early Christian Studies at Wheaton College. A native of Athens, Greece, he specializes in historical theology with a focus on early Christianity, particularly the development of Christological and Trinitarian thought, ecclesial ethics, and the Church's engagement with Greco-Roman culture. Dr. Kalantzis is the author and editor of several volumes, including Caesar and the Lamb: Early Christian Attitudes on War and Military Service. He is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and a Senior Fellow with the International Association for Refugees, where his work intersects theology and humanitarian advocacy.

A devastating fire broke out at The Gabriel House, an assisted living facility in Fall River, last Sunday, killing now 10 people as another person has succumbed to injuries because of the fire. Was this a preventable tragedy and if so, how? Was the assisted living facility up to code? Investigators have not yet determined the cause of the fire but have said it is not considered suspicious. However, there is speculation over whether higher firefighting staffing levels would have saved more lives. This fire has shone a light on what has been a long simmering dispute over fire department staffing. Edward Kelly, president of the International Association of Fire Fighters and Lt. Jay Burns with the Fall River Fire Department joined us to discuss.

In the world of leadership, influence, and workplace culture, few things are more delicate—and more impactful—than how feedback is delivered. As a keynote speaker who's worked with countless organizations, I've seen firsthand how a single comment can change the tone of an entire event.

Near-death experiences have been reported since the dawn of humankind. In almost all cases, the stories are very similar.Every year, around 350,000 people in the United States experience cardiac arrest outside of a hospital setting. Worldwide data is staggering. Very few of these people survive; of the ten percent who do, a few report experiencing a life-after-death memory. The International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS) has estimated that 85% of children who experienced cardiac arrest have had a near-death experience. This rate is more than twice that of an adult.In this book, you will read personal accounts of people who have been successfully revived after they were pronounced dead. Each has their own account, but you will see a similar theme in each - how each of them had to face their decision-making during their lifetime and whether those decisions were bad or good. Each had to stand in some form of judgment. This correlates to the principles taught in the Jewish, Christian, and Islamic religions.BioJonathan Gregory Reed was born and raised in southern Virginia, in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. His southern, conservative values are evident throughout his books. He presently lives in Southern California with his wife, Jeanette, but has never forgotten his roots.Jonathan Gregory Reed worked for the Richmond City Sheriff's Office and later for the Virginia State Police. In 1984, he developed spasmodic dysphonia and had to change professions due to his voice disorder. He worked for thirty years as a nurse in the operating room and discovered he liked writing during this period.

In Episode 224, Dr. Chris Fuzie joins Darrin for a fascinating conversation on behavior-based leadership and the concept of “liminal space”—the space where individuals lead and follow simultaneously. Drawing from his 28 years in law enforcement and extensive leadership consulting experience, Chris breaks down how leadership is not a position but a behavior, and how great leaders also embrace the role of the follower. This episode explores what gets in the way of effective leadership, why behavior matters more than titles, and how reshaping the leadership-followership dynamic is the next evolution in the field.Guest Bio: Dr. Chris Fuzie is the owner of CMF Leadership Consulting and currently serves as the Business/HR Manager for a District Attorney's office in California. A Leaderologist II and President of the National Leaderology Association, Chris holds a Doctor of Education (Ed.D.), M.A., and B.A. in Organizational Leadership, with graduate certificates in Human Resources and Criminal Justice Education.Since 2010, he has developed and delivered leadership training for public, private, profit, and non-profit organizations.

Chris is the author of Because Why... Understanding Behavior in Exigencies, S.C.O.R.E. Performance Counseling: Save the Relationship, Change the Behavior, and his latest book, Liminal Space: Reshaping Leadership and Followership.Chris is honorably retired from the Modesto Police Department after 28 years of service, having led teams including the Homicide Team, Hostage Negotiations Team, Street-Level Drug Team, School Police Officer Team, and the Traffic Motor Unit.Dr. Fuzie on Social Media: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-chris-fuzie-ed-d-m-a-ol-vl2-37587934/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090255232861https://www.facebook.com/chris.fuzie/https://x.com/CMFLeadershipWEBSITE:https://www.cmfleadership.com/https://www.scoreperformancecounseling.com/

In this powerful episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat reconnect with one of their favourite guests, Dr Melanie Uhde. Known for her no-nonsense, science-first approach to canine behaviour and training, Melanie has become a respected but polarising figure in the dog world. Her deep dives into peer-reviewed research and willingness to challenge misinformation have been applauded by many, but they've also drawn the ire of some high-profile dog trainers more concerned with protecting their brand than evolving with the truth. We discuss the toll of speaking out in a field still dominated by ego, outdated narratives, and commercial agendas. Melanie opens up about some of the shocking threats and intimidation she's received simply for presenting facts. But through it all, her resolve remains: stay true to the science and protect dogs from the fallout of flawed ideologies. If you care about what's real and what works, this is an episode you don't want to miss. Further Details Are you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

Episode Summary: In this deeply moving and honest episode, Amy Wheeler welcomes Lisa Becks—a yoga teacher, clinical social worker, and long-time practitioner—who shares her lifelong journey with yoga as a steady companion through grief, motherhood, cancer, and healing. Lisa recounts how she first encountered yoga in her early twenties while grieving the sudden loss of her mother, and how that one class at a Zen Buddhist center in Michigan led to decades of inner transformation.From the profound influence of her first teacher Barbara Linderman (a direct student of Śrī T. Krishnamacharya) to her healing experience with Kate Holcombe after a breast cancer diagnosis, Lisa's story reminds us that yoga isn't about performance or ambition—it's about returning to ourselves, again and again. Throughout this conversation, Amy and Lisa reflect on parenting without a mother, the reverberations of our actions and emotions, and how the most healing practices are often the simplest and most sincere.Listeners will be inspired by Lisa's vulnerability, her gentle wisdom, and the way she lives the teachings she practices.
