In this conversation, disability advocate, artist, and author Jayne Mattingly joins Dr. Marianne to explore body grief: the very real mourning that happens when your body, health, or identity do not match the life you imagined. Jayne traces how she coined the term from years of counseling work in eating disorders and body image, and from her own shift into disability after sudden illness and 19 brain and spine surgeries. Together, we unpack how ableism, intersectionality, and systemic oppression shape what we grieve about our bodies and how we heal. You will hear practical ways to name body grief, honor it, and build community care that creates room for joy, creativity, and resistance. This episode covers body grief, disability advocacy, chronic pain, eating disorders, antifat bias, medical dismissal, grief phases, and neurodivergent-affirming, sensory-attuned care. We discuss how ableism and overlapping identities influence recovery, why harm reduction and community care matter, and practical tools for regulation, access planning, and self-advocacy. CONTENT CAUTION We discuss medical trauma, dismissal in healthcare, chronic pain, disability, diet culture, and systemic oppression. Please listen with care and pause when needed. WHAT WE COVER What “body grief” means and why naming it matters How eating disorders can function as regulation and why recovery can feel like loss Jayne's personal story of sudden illness, surgeries, vision loss, and becoming a wheelchair user Everyday ableism and why language like “non-disabled” helps decenter harmful norms The seven phases Jayne observes in body grief and how people move through them Dismissal in medical settings, internalized dismissal, and how to advocate for yourself Why body grief grows inside systems of racism, antifat bias, sexism, homophobia, and ageism Neurodivergence, disability, and how a more accessible world would change the grief we carry Community care, harm reduction, and finding light without forcing a tidy destination KEY TAKEAWAYS Body grief is universal. We all live in bodies that change. Naming the grief opens space for honesty, compassion, and skills. Oppression intensifies grief. Systems teach us which bodies are “acceptable.” Healing includes unlearning those messages and changing the conditions around us. Hope and grief can coexist. Progress is nonlinear. You can move in and out of phases and still build a meaningful life. Language matters. Shifting to terms like “non-disabled” helps challenge ableist defaults. Community care is protective. Healing grows when we practice access, mutual support, and self-advocacy together. FAVORITE MOMENTS Jayne on seeing ableism inside “love your body for what it can do” messages and why that left disabled people out The dismissal chapter story that shows how easily young people internalize “you're fine” when they are not fine “If you design for disabled people first, everyone benefits.” Body grief as a unifier that crosses political lines through storytelling and clear psychoeducation PRACTICAL TOOLS MENTIONED Name your current phase of body grief and set one tiny supportive action for today Track dismissal patterns you have internalized and write one replacement script for your next appointment Build a personal access plan: sensory needs, mobility needs, communication needs, and who can help Use harm-reduction mindset for recovery work and daily life Create a small “joy and regulation” list that is available on hard days ABOUT JAYNE Jayne Mattingly is a nationally recognized disability advocate, body image speaker, and author of This Is Body Grief. She founded The AND Initiative to shift conversations around accessibility, ableism, and healing. Jayne is also the artist behind Dying for Art, a bold abstract series created in partnership with her changing body and chronic pain. She lives in Charleston, South Carolina with her service dog Wheatie. Find Jayne: Instagram @jaynemattingly, janemattingly.com, and Substack This Is Body Grief.

Pastors Justin Alexander and Eric Williamson continue a series based on Rosaria Butterfield's book, Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age.This episode was recorded live during the Wednesday Night Bible Study at FBC Hendersonville, NC, on September 3, 2025.

A milestone celebration and heartfelt reflection on 100 episodes of authentic storytelling Episode Overview What started as a simple mission to capture immigrant workplace and career stories in August 2022 has blossomed into something far more profound. Join Dr. Lola Adeyemo as she reflects on the incredible journey from "Immigrants in Corporate" to "Thriving in Intersectionality" – a transformation that mirrors the deeper truth she discovered: our careers and sense of belonging are shaped by the beautiful complexity of our intersecting identities. This milestone episode is a love letter to every guest who trusted their story, every listener who found connection, and the transformative power of authentic storytelling in professional spaces. Key Moments & Reflections The Evolution: From Simple Stories to Deep Purpose August 2022: First podcast episode recorded, originally focused on the immigrant professional's workplace experiences and a follow-up to Dr. Lola's Book research conversations. September 2022: Dr. Lola's TEDx talk "Belonging is Not About Fitting In" shaped the podcast's direction January 2024: Rebranded to "Thriving in Intersectionality" to reflect the broader truth emerging from conversations and named after Dr. Lola's book Thriving in Intersectionality The realization: It's not just about immigrants – it's about the power of intersectional identities in professional growth Personal Lessons: Discovering the Storyteller Within Owning the Role of Storyteller: Dr. Lola shares how this podcast journey helped her embrace storytelling as her core identity – not just recording conversations, but crafting narratives that bridge gaps, clarify concepts, and bring people along for the journey. Sharpening Advocacy Skills: Every published episode became an act of advocacy, amplifying voices that deserve boardroom representation but don't always get it. This wasn't just content creation – it was purposeful amplification of underrepresented perspectives. Mastering the Craft: From outsourcing everything to loving the technical details – listening deeply, drawing out themes, crafting titles that capture the essence of each guest's wisdom. Community Lessons: The Wisdom in Our Intersections Identity as Bridge, Not Just Barrier: The most powerful revelation – our layered identities bring perspective, resilience, and creativity. They're not obstacles to overcome but tools for thriving. Community Accelerates Careers: A common thread among guests – breakthrough moments happen when we stop walking alone and find our people, our advocates, our spaces of belonging. Leadership Grows Everywhere: From C-suite executives to early-career ERG leaders, the spectrum of guests revealed that leadership isn't about titles – it's about stepping up with courage and creating belonging for others. Standout Insights "Stories don't just shape the listener. They shape the storyteller too." "Leadership grows in unexpected places... without a title, with a title, in different spaces, you can play different roles." "Identity could also be a bridge, a really important, much needed bridge when it comes to growing and advancing in the workplace." Looking Ahead: The Next 100 Episodes Dr. Lola's vision continues to expand – more diverse voices, deeper career lessons, and ongoing proof that belonging isn't about fitting in, it's about showing up fully as yourself and finding community in that authenticity. Your Voice Matters #ThrivinginIntersectionality Question for Reflection: What's the most important career lesson your layered identity has taught you? Dr. Lola wants to hear from you – your story could inspire someone who shares your intersection.

In this episode I talk with Dr. Christy Cobb and Dr. Katherine Shaner about the new book they coedited entitled Ancient Slavery and Its New Testament Contexts, out now on Eerdmans. They explain the institution of slavery in antiquity, its pervasiveness in Greco-Roman society, and how Romans and Jews alike thought about slavery. Dr. Cobb explains her chapter on gender roles, noting how men and women experienced slavery differently, and Dr. Shaner explains her chapter on New Testament household codes and their complex presentation of slavery. We then talk about the conflicting instructions regarding slavery in the New Testament, the Bible's role in the abolitionist movement, and why Christians should seriously think about this issue. Dr. Cobb also wanted to refer curious listeners to the following article, which explores slavery in the Rabbinic tradition in greater detail: Hezser, Catherine. “Part Whore, Part Wife: Slave Women in the Palestinian Rabbinic Tradition.” In Doing Gender - Doing Religion: Case Studies on Intersectionality in Early Judaism, Christianity and Islam, edited by Ute E.

What if the "wrong" career moves are actually the right ones? And what happens when a physician decides the traditional path isn't enough? For Dr. Meklit Workneh, the answer to these questions was a journey that took her from Ethiopia to Stanford, through public health fieldwork, FDA regulatory medicine, and ultimately to leading AI-integrated clinical trials at Moderna. Her story proves that curiosity, courage, and strategic career pivots can transform not just your own trajectory—but also advance global health innovation. From arriving solo in California at 17 to becoming a triple board-certified physician pioneering the intersection of artificial intelligence and clinical development, Dr. Workneh's path offers practical insights for anyone ready to create their own career rather than follow someone else's blueprint. The Intersectional Advantage Dr. Workneh brings a unique perspective shaped by multiple intersections: An Ethiopian immigrant who arrived in the US solo at 17 for college Triple board-certified physician with expertise spanning clinical care, research, and pathology Mother of young children balancing executive leadership with family life First-generation professional navigating American corporate structures Bridge-builder between medicine, technology, public health, and industry Black woman in biotech leadership championing diversity in clinical trials As she puts it: "I've always been that person where I'm going to find all the things I like doing and bring them all together and find a way to do it." The Journey: From Ethiopia to Stanford to Biopharma Early Life in East Africa: Born in Ethiopia during the communist era, experienced family relocation to Kenya during political upheaval, and returned to Ethiopia for high school education. Bold Educational Move: At 17, made the independent decision to attend Stanford University, arriving solo in California—a culture shock that required significant adaptation and resilience. Strategic Academic Path: Studied biology at Stanford, then pursued an MPH at Yale focused on public health, worked in field research in Ethiopia before medical school. Medical Training Excellence: Earned MD from UCSF, completed internal medicine residency and infectious diseases/microbiology fellowship at Johns Hopkins. Government Service: Joined the FDA's Division of Infectious Diseases, working on neglected tropical diseases, antibiotic resistance, and the COVID-19 pandemic response. Industry Leadership: Transitioned to Moderna as Senior Director of Clinical Development, pioneering AI integration in infectious disease clinical trials. Essential Career Insights Maintain Curiosity Above All: "I think it always helps to maintain a degree of curiosity, no matter what you do, and just keep learning. Keep exploring. You never know the opportunities that your curiosity will open up." Think Holistically About Life Design: Consider how your career choices align with your personal goals, including family, lifestyle, and values. "I wanted to have children, to get married, all of those things were important to me….so thinking about how do I merge all of these things." Create Your Own Specialization: Don't be limited by traditional career tracks. "I was always exploring all these interests…like Africa, public health, infectious disease... And I'm just gonna take a bunch of things and just merge them together." Seek Information Through Relationships: "I just really try to keep an open mind. You know, went to things that were sort of outside my comfort zone and I talked to a lot of people... let me see what they're doing and sort of keep a very open mind." Embrace the Non-Linear Path: "I didn't even know this was a career path when I started out... it wasn't necessarily a well-crafted plan to end up exactly where I am now. But, you know, I'm very happy with where I am now." About Our Guest Dr. Meklit Workneh is a Senior Director of Clinical Development in Infectious Diseases at Moderna Therapeutics, where she leads teams designing clinical trials and developing strategies that bring life-saving vaccines and therapeutics to patients worldwide. She is triple board-certified in internal medicine, infectious diseases, and pathology (microbiology) with over 15 years of experience bridging clinical medicine and research. Her groundbreaking work at the intersection of AI and clinical development recently gained national recognition through Moderna's partnership with OpenAI, showcasing how intelligent technology can accelerate the path from discovery to treatment. Before joining industry, she served at the FDA's Division of Infectious Diseases, working on neglected tropical diseases, antibiotic resistance, and COVID-19 initiatives. Dr. Workneh holds a BA from Stanford University, an MPH from Yale School of Public Health, and an MD from University of California, San Francisco. She completed her residency in internal medicine and fellowship training in infectious diseases and microbiology at Johns Hopkins.

Interviewer: Jasmine Lopez Interviewees: Jennifer Biggers  Language: English & Spanish | Bilingual transcript available Description: In this special bilingual episode—the first ever in Spanish on the Docs With Disabilities Podcast—we explore the intersection of disability, culture, and education through the lens of a powerful personal and professional journey. Jasmine Lopez sits down with Jennifer Biggers, M.Ed., a first-generation Latina Disability Resource Professional at the University of California, Riverside. With warmth, vulnerability, and insight, Jennifer shares how her identity as a Honduran-Ecuadorian American, former special education teacher, and parent of autistic children informs her deeply empathetic and culturally responsive approach to supporting disabled learners. Together, they discuss: The unique challenges and strengths of Latinx and first-gen students with disabilities How stigma around mental health shows up in Latinx communities—and how to push back Strategies for building trust between students and DRPs Culturally relevant resources for learners and families Why representation in medicine (and DRP offices) matters more than ever This episode is a love letter to students navigating multiple marginalizations—and to the professionals working to ensure they thrive. Whether you're a student, educator, clinician, or ally, you'll leave this episode with new insights and a deepened appreciation for the power of culturally grounded support.

Hey, Scorekeepers! On our off weeks for the next few months, we're revisiting ART CLASS, the 12-episode series all about arts and arts education that we released last year. We hope you enjoy this stroll down memory lane!--This episode was originally released on January 30, 2024.Welcome back, Classmates! And thank you so much for joining us for episode 2 of Lincoln Center's ART CLASS! This week is all about preserving the legacy of Black art and culture, specifically Black music. COVID-19 and the murder of George Floyd in 2020 brought about a racial reckoning here in the US, the likes of which hadn't been seen in decades. In 2024, however, with the conservative backlash against progressive ideals and initiatives like Critical Race Theory and DEI gaining momentum in many places, it seems the pendulum has swung hard back in the other direction. This week, we talk with two scholars and artists working tirelessly to keep Black stories, Black culture, and Black art at the forefront of the national imagination. First, we chat with Dr. Michael C. Mason, PhD the first chair of the new Africana Studies Department at the Berklee College of Music, all about the creation of this exciting new program at one of the most prestigious music schools in the country (0:26:37). And later, Paige sits down with Christopher Fuller, the creator of the Black Music Project, for the first installment of their series, Kinfolk (0:57:49). They talk all about how this invaluable repository of Black history and art came to be and make the case that the story of Black music is the story of American music. All that plus, the Morning Announcements with Emile (0:54:52) and a bit of Pure Black Joy (1:32:06) to get you through the rest of the week. Class is in session, y'all!--Hosts: Lee Bynum, Rocky Jones, Paige ReynoldsGuests: Christopher Fuller, Dr. Michael C.

Hey team! Today I'm talking with Katie Friedman and Alex Campbell, the brains and heart behind Gold Mind Academy, an ICF-accredited, ADHD-friendly training program, crafted to support ADHDers on their journey to success. And their new book, “ADHD… Now What?”, aims to give you the tools you need to find a coach that is right for you and how to advocate for your needs. And honestly, I love this approach to the book because while there are a lot of ADHD coaches out there, it's important to find someone who is going to work best with you. So who are these people? Katie is a long time educator turned ICF-accredited ADHD coach and also a TEDx speaker. Alex is also an ICF-accredited ADHD coach, but also a psychotherapist and one of the first children in the UK to be diagnosed with ADHD back in 1990. In our conversation today, we explore what coaching really looks like beyond surface-level goal setting. Alex and Katie break down how understanding your strengths can lead to better self-advocacy and less burnout. We also talk about survival mode, how internalized ableism and societal “shoulds” trip us up, and why connection, with ourselves and with others, is essential for building sustainable strategies. I had a great time with this conversation and it gave me a lot to think about, so I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Work on shifting from a deficit lens to a strengths lens. We want to understand not just what we're good at but what we need in place to express those strengths effectively. 2. It's important that we integrate identity first and strategy second. For real change to happen, we need to understand and accept who we are before trying to layer on productivity tools. 3. ADHD isn't easy to manage in isolation. With teamwork and support systems, we can drastically reduce burnout and overwhelm, so it's incredibly important that we work on building connection and community.

In this soul-nourishing and deeply insightful episode of Dr. Marianne-Land: An Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast, Dr. Marianne Miller sits down with fat liberationist author and activist Amanda Martinez Beck to unpack what it really means to live with diabetes in a fat body—especially in a medical system steeped in anti-fat bias. Amanda shares her personal journey of being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes while navigating eating disorder recovery, medical gaslighting, and societal pressure around weight loss drugs like Ozempic. She reflects on how reclaiming the word “fat,” grounding her activism in faith and philosophy, and building fat community have supported her in choosing self-trust over shame. You'll hear about her healing journey, her shift from size dignity to fat liberation, and her vision of a world designed with fat people in mind. In this episode, we explore: Why diabetes stigma in fat bodies is so dangerous—and so common The liberating power of community with other fat people How Amanda's beliefs as a Christian and a philosopher shape her body politics Her experience with Ozempic, including what led her to stop taking it The emotional toll of medical fatphobia—and how she found a weight-inclusive doctor The birth of her substack series Nozempic Mondays, a haven for people resisting GLP-1 pressure If you've ever felt dismissed by providers, pressured to shrink your body for “health,” or like your needs in a fat body are invisible—this episode is for you. You are not alone. You deserve care that honors your whole self. CONTENT CAUTIONS: Discussion of weight loss, eating disorders, diabetes, Ozempic, and medical trauma. GUEST BIO: Amanda Martinez Beck is a fat author, disability advocate, and fat liberationist whose work centers on embodiment, faith, and justice.

Françoise Girard is an activist and founder of Feminism Makes Us Smarter. We discuss Francois' journey from studying law in Montreal to becoming a feminist activist in New York. Francois shares experiences from her work with the Open Society Institute and the International Women's Health Coalition, elaborating on the critical role of grassroots feminist movements in effecting societal change. “Taking a feminist, intersectional lens helps us understand the world better. You can see trends before the regular commentators do.”The conversation touches on misconceptions about feminism, the interconnected nature of various justice movements, and the importance of long-term, flexible support from philanthropists. “If you want to track the health of a democracy, look at what's happening to women's rights. They're the early warning system.”Francois also highlights the power of storytelling in activism and reveals her creative process behind her writing. “When we walk out of a play, we're more in touch with our feelings. That's how movements grow — through stories and emotion, not just policy.”“Each of us won't solve it all, but if we all do something — even something small — that's how things move. That's what gives me hope.”The discussion concludes with insights into successful campaigns, including the decriminalization of abortion in Ireland, and practical advice for individual contributions to social change.Links and 00:18 Francois' Journey to Activism01:50 Working with International Organizations03:39 Founding Feminism Makes Us Smarter04:54 Understanding Modern Feminism05:41 Intersectionality and Feminism10:35 Theories of Change in Activism22:54 Challenges and Learnings in Feminist Movements31:45 The Role of Art and Opera in Life32:17 The Power of Storytelling36:14 Creative Processes and Writing41:51 Successful Movements and Campaigns49:41 Current Projects and Future Plans54:38 Final Thoughts and Advice

They talk about the value of autonomy, community building, and understanding the unique challenges faced by high school students in the context of neurodiversity. TAKEAWAYS The shift from compliance-based strategies to affirming support is crucial for neurodivergent students. Belonging is more important than fitting in for neurodivergent individuals. Social goals should focus on authentic connections rather than masking behaviors. Autonomy in decision-making enhances both student and teacher experiences. Intersectionality plays a significant role in the experiences of neurodivergent individuals. After school clubs can foster connections between neurodivergent and neuro-normative students. Normalizing neurodivergent behaviors can enhance acceptance in schools. The DASL assessment tool focuses on strengths rather than deficits. Language used in reports can affect parent-child dynamics.
