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.

From a $3,500 investment to an eight-figure tech company—all without VC funding. Neelima Parasker's story spans 25 years in corporate tech before making the leap to entrepreneurship at age 40+. This isn't just a business success story—it's a masterclass in career evolution, strategic risk-taking, and turning industry frustrations into innovative solutions. About Our Guest Neelima Parasker is the Founder, President, and CEO of SnapIT Solutions®, an innovative technology company delivering IT services, software product development, and inclusive tech workforce training. With a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering and a Master's in Computer Science, Neelima brings over 25 years of experience in the high-tech industry. Neelima created SnapIT's proprietary SPRNT® model, which develops and deploys tech talent from unconventional communities through certified training programs across 10 states (expanding to all 50 by 2030). Her approach combines education with real-world apprenticeships, addressing the tech talent shortage by training brilliant people who never considered technology careers. In July 2023, she was nominated by Kansas Governor Laura Kelly to serve as a Regent on the Kansas Board of Regents. Her visionary leadership has earned numerous accolades, including Enterprising Women of the Year and Women Who Mean Business by Kansas City Business Journal. She is also co-founder of Lotus TMS, Inc, a trucking management software company. The Career Evolution: From Engineer to Innovation Leader Neelima's career path defied expectations at every turn. Born in India, she came to America for her Master's in Computer Science and decided to build her career here instead of returning home. Her corporate journey took her through 15 years at major tech companies, where she learned a crucial lesson: "I was very inquisitive about what's happening, and I would always let whoever is managing my work know that I'm done with this work. I need more." This hunger for growth and learning became her career superpower. The transition from employee to entrepreneur came gradually: "People around me kept saying 'you gotta get out of there and start your own.' I'm like, why? I'm happy in my job." But eventually, her drive for innovation and impact outgrew the corporate structure. From Corporate Security to Entrepreneurial Reality One of the most honest parts of the conversation was Neelima's comparison of corporate life versus entrepreneurship: "Corporate job gives you flexibility. You could spend a lot more time on things you want to do after work. You can go on vacation and not worry about it because there are people to back you up." But entrepreneurship? "You're a parent—even if you walk out the door, you're still responsible." She learned this the hard way, working 2-3 AM every night in the early days until her body couldn't keep up. Her advice to aspiring entrepreneurs is strategic: master your core service first. "Because of my 15 years in the corporate world, when I got into entrepreneurship, I knew what I was bringing to the table for the client. I just needed to know the ropes of how to go about it." The Gems: Neelima's Game-Changing Insights On Real vs. Fake Experience "You can have 10 years of experience on paper, but if you've done the same thing for one year 10 times, then you only have one year of experience." On Corporate vs. Entrepreneurship "Being an entrepreneur is like being a parent—even when you walk out the door, you're still responsible. Corporate life is like babysitting someone else's baby—when you walk out, you're done." On Breaking Limiting Beliefs "Someone said, 'You've done so great even though you immigrated and have an accent.' Those are limiting beliefs. I've never thought about that. If I can talk and another person can understand, there's no barrier." On Smart Business Funding "Your clients are your investors if they're ready to pay for what you bring. Don't run to an investor the second you have a brilliant idea." On Learning What Can't Be Taken Away "There is no IP on what you can learn. They can't IP your brain." On Corporate Career Growth "I was very inquisitive about what's happening, and I would always let whoever is managing my work know that I'm done with this work. I need more. You gotta make sure you are the product—your experience counts." On Setting Entrepreneurial Boundaries "I had to learn to set boundaries for myself. I would work until 2-3 AM, then wake up at 6 AM and start again. Even though I love what I do, doesn't mean my body can catch up with my spirit. You gotta be more mindful about taking care of your health." The Intersectional Advantage Neelima embodies her philosophy: "I've never wanted to box myself because it doesn't make sense. Intersectionality equals out of the box. We are defined by what is inward, inside, within us—not by how society looks at us." As an Indian immigrant, engineer, entrepreneur, mother, and workforce development champion, she brings multiple perspectives to solving complex problems. Her refusal to choose just one identity became her business superpower. Connect with Guest Neelima Parasker Website: https://snapit.solutionsLinkedIn: Neelima ParaskerAlso Co-founder: Lotus TMS, Inc.

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

Nathalie BajosSanté publique (2024-2025)Collège de FranceAnnée 2024-2025Colloque - La production sociale des inégalités de santé : approches théoriques et données empiriques. Perspectives internationalesSession 3 : Interroger la structuration sociale des inégalités de santé en anthropologie et en épidémiologieGreta Bauer : A New Framework for Understanding Social Privilege and HealthGreta BauerProfessor and Director, Eli Coleman Institute for Sexual and Gender Health, University of Minnesota Medical SchoolRésuméWhile health research has increasingly included a role for stigma and discrimination in impacting health, privilege is often left to be implicitly understood as a lack of these. This undertheorization of privilege limits our understanding of how social power shapes health. I present a seven-fold model of privilege and its intersectional formation. Privilege is conceptualized as taking seven forms: just and fair experience, allowed harmful ignorance, promotion and facilitation, implicitly understood meaning, respect for autonomy and bodily integrity, successful moves to innocence, and assumed good intentions. Each form can be enacted through interpersonal or structural mechanisms. While this seven-fold model can be applied to individual conceptualizations of privilege (e.g., heterosexual privilege, white privilege), an intersectionality framework is key to understanding how power and privilege differentials operate relationally to affect health. Intersectionality helps explain, for example, why the traditional socioeconomic gradient of health has differential returns for people of different races, gender expressions, and disabilities, or why a generally privileged position such as maleness may not present an advantage when considered in relation to other social positions and contexts. I provide a set of thinking tools for incorporating this seven-fold and intersectional understanding of privilege into public health work.Greta BauerGreta Bauer, PhD, MPH is a Professor and Director of the Eli Coleman Institute for Sexual and Gender Health in the University of Minnesota Medical School. She holds the endowed academic chair in sexual health. Prior to 2022, Dr. Bauer was a Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics in the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry at Western University in London, Canada, where she held a Sex and Gender Science Chair through the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR). Dr. Bauer has authored more than 150 peer-reviewed papers, book chapters, and technical reports related to health equity. As an epidemiologist, her focus on sexual and gender health has been both substantive and methodological, with a focus on the impacts of social marginalization. She is a leader in transgender and non-binary health, and in incorporating intersectionality into quantitative research methods.

In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne explores how the growing popularity of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, and Mounjaro is reshaping the body diversity movement. As weight loss drugs become more widely used and celebrated, messages of fat liberation and weight-inclusive care are being challenged in new and complex ways. Dr. Marianne discusses the cultural effects of GLP-1s, the pressure many people feel to conform to changing body ideals, and what this means for fat humans, eating disorder recovery, and those committed to body autonomy. This episode offers a compassionate and honest look at the grief, confusion, and questions arising in this new era. If you're navigating the intersection of weight stigma, eating disorders, and the rise of GLP-1 medications, this conversation will help you feel grounded, supported, and less alone.

Abhay welcomes Sanjay Sharma, founder and CEO of Marginal Media Works, for a candid and thought-provoking conversation about the power of the margins in shaping culture, creativity, and identity.Sanjay shares his journey from growing up immersed in subcultures like skateboarding, heavy metal, and hip hop, to building a media company dedicated to amplifying voices and stories that exist at the intersections—across race, gender, sexuality, and more. Together, Abhay and Sanjay explore how “the coolest shit happens in the margins,” why authenticity matters in an era of rapid commercialization, and how intersectionality and fluid identity are transforming both the business and art of storytelling.The discussion touches on reimagining classic genres through new perspectives, the evolving landscape of representation in Hollywood, and the challenges and opportunities of navigating today's shifting sociopolitical climate. Sanjay also reflects on the importance of pattern recognition, staying connected to emerging trends, and the ongoing need to redefine what it means to belong—both on screen and off.(0:00 - 3:13) Introduction(3:13) Part 1 - prioritizing margins, politics and the moving margins(20:45) Part 2 - centers of capital and power, intersections of tech and media(34:10) Part 3 - labels and identity, optimismDon't forget to subscribe, review, follow along, and share!

What if the pop culture you loved growing up was quietly teaching you to shrink, perform and turn on other women? In this episode, Pulitzer Prize–nominated journalist Sophie Gilbert joins me to revisit the legacy of the 90s and 2000s — a time that likely shaped how you see yourself & other women. We talk about the toxic version of ‘empowerment' that dominated the era, why so many of us still feel stuck in competition mode and how we can start untangling the stories we were sold.

What does gender inclusivity have to do with pet behavior consulting? (Spoiler: everything.) In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, Emily Strong (she/they) chats with Sami Griffin (they/them), a cat and dog behavior consultant with a passion for creating safer, more inclusive spaces—for pets and their people. Sami helps us move beyond surface-level performative action into real, effective inclusivity that doesn't just sound good, but does good.From busting myths around sex and gender to sharing tangible ways to practice using pronouns and avoid assumptions, this conversation is packed with insight, empathy, and action. You'll also hear how the same principles we use in behavior work—intentional practice, meeting learners' needs, and using a descriptive approach—can help us grow as inclusive professionals. Whether you're already deep into this work or you're just starting to explore how gender inclusivity fits into your role, this episode offers guidance, support, and that gentle-but-firm nudge to do better—for everyone's benefit.Meet Our Guest: Sami Griffin (they/them)Sami (they/them) got a bachelor's degree in music and gender studies (with a lot of philosophy). They worked as a veterinary assistant in veterinary emergency, in shelters in the foster and behavior departments, and with a Veterinary Behaviorist as a behavior therapist focused on behavior modification. Amongst all things animal behavior, they are passionate about educating people on queerness and how all systems of oppression are interlocked. If they aren't teaching people about the animals in their lives, they're likely teaching people about queerness and LGBTQ inclusivity, playing indie video games, puzzling, or embroidering.Connect with Sami on Instagram or their websiteTLDL (Too Long, Didn't Listen): Mistakes are Normal – Nobody gets it right 100% of the time, and that's okay. The key is how we respond: with openness, humility, and a willingness to keep learning. Behavior Principles Apply to People, Too – Just like teaching a dog to sit or helping a cat love their cat tree, changing our language and habits takes practice, reinforcement, and support.Take a Descriptive Approach – Instead of making assumptions about pets or people, taking a descriptive, curiosity-centered approach will build trust, reduce harm, and create space for authenticity.Links & Resources from the EpisodeFind the transcript in Arial l Find the transcript in OpenDyslexicLearn why Emily and Sami said it's so important to speak outGoing Down a Rabbit Hole?Want more ways to expand your inclusive, science-smart behavior toolkit?

This episode focuses about Intersectionality. An analytical framework for understanding how groups' and individuals' social and political identities result in unique combinations of discrimination and privilege. We chat with Therapist Loanna Abreu, who helps us understand the definition, why it matters and how it affects our BIPOC community, especially Latinas.

Dr. Kehaulani Fagatele-Folau joins this episode to introduce her doctoral research. We begin with Indigenous concepts and methods she used from the Madau-Moana to make sense of some of the colonial contexts Indigenous women of Oceania traverse in the academy. Some themes we discuss include Indigenous feminism, interconnectivity, sharing space, and relational ethics by using Niu/Neo/Knew Tā-Vā. Fagatele-Folau shares a re-imagined R.I.P. acronym, and deploys it as metaphor for laying to rest systems of power, as they work through the process of ‘becoming' a Madau-Moana cosmopolitan. We reflect on the possibilities in being rooted and mobile, and continuing to learn confidence with care through a broad sense of kinship. “Not all the powers that be are all the powers that are” – Kehau Fagatele-Folau Terms with introductory definitions: Madau (Pohnpeian for Ocean/Thought); Moana (Ocean in Tongan); Talanoa (Critical relational dialogue); Iroir (reflection/beautiful view/to position yourself for a beautiful view); Hoa (pair/partner/companion/connection); Hoamālie (harmonious partnership); Hoatamaki (imbalanced partnership); R.I.P. (Relationality, Intersectionality, Positionality); Mana (honour, prestige, potency, authority).

Speech Dude Chris Wenger joins Emily Kircher-Morris to discuss the importance of shifting from compliance-based educational strategies to more affirming practices for neurodivergent students. They explore the significance of creating safe and regulated environments, the difference between belonging and fitting in, and the need to redefine social goals to foster authentic connections among students. 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. The Neurodiversity University Therapist Hub is now open for you to join! Be among a group of like-minded peers in a vibrant community, where learning and sharing are front and center. We're building a world that works for all neurotypes, and we need you! Chris Wenger is a neurodivergent high school speech-language pathologist with over 20 years of experience, an international speaker, and the creator of the Dynamic Assessment of Social Emotional Learning, a strengths-based assessment designed for autistic students. He is also the founder of NeuroAffirm, a groundbreaking global directory that connects neurodivergent individuals and their families with affirming providers. Widely known as Speech Dude, Chris has built a global following of nearly one million on social media, where he shares educational and inspiring content infused with humor. His work focuses on making neuroaffirming practices more accessible while empowering educators, therapists, and families to better support neurodivergent learners.

Long before becoming an award-winning educator, public speaker, and podcaster (of BFF: Black, Fat, Femme), Dr. Jonathan P. Higgins (aka Doctor Jon Paul) was just a kid sneaking movies while mom was at work. One of those films, 1993's This Boy's Life, became one of their favorites. That was in large part thanks to the aspirational friendship of main character Tobias "Jack" Wolff (Leonardo DiCaprio) and the closeted but undeniable Arthur Gayle.

Reproductive Mental Health, Intersectionality, and Systemic Barriers: An interview with Dr. Loree Johnson Curt and Katie chat with Dr. Loree Johnson about the intersections of reproductive mental health, race, and systemic injustice. Dr. Johnson shared powerful insights about the shame, grief, and medical trauma that many clients face, especially Black women and other folks from historically marginalized communities. We dive into how therapists can hold safer, more informed spaces for clients experiencing infertility and pregnancy loss, and how systemic racism and historical harm continue to shape reproductive healthcare today.

In this podcast episode, we talk about reproductive trauma, systemic barriers to care, and the need for cultural humility in therapy We were honored to sit down with Dr. Loree Johnson, LMFT, PhD—an expert in reproductive mental health who brings both clinical expertise and lived experience to the conversation. We explore how therapists can better support clients navigating infertility, pregnancy loss, and trauma, especially clients from marginalized communities. What do therapists often get wrong about reproductive mental health? ·    Avoiding the conversation about infertility and pregnancy loss because therapists feel undertrained or uncomfortable ·   Therapists overlook the impact of race, history, and oppression in reproductive trauma ·   Assuming fertility issues affect only straight, cisgender couples ·   Minimizing or misunderstanding the grief associated with pregnancy loss and infertility What is the role of systemic racism and historical trauma for Black women seeking reproductive care? ·    Mistrust of the medical system due to real, generational harm (e.g., J. Marion Sims, Henrietta Lacks, Tuskegee) ·    Myths of hyper-fertility in Black women and the erasure of infertility struggles in communities of color ·   Disenfranchised grief and cultural stigma around fertility challenges ·   Weathering: the cumulative impact of chronic stress and racism on physical and reproductive health How can therapists show up better for clients who are experiencing infertility and pregnancy loss? ·   Learn the terminology and processes around fertility treatments and pregnancy loss ·   Create space for conversations around sex, reproduction, and grief—even if it's uncomfortable ·   Practice cultural humility and intimacy: be willing to be wrong, to sit with pain, and to build trust ·   Acknowledge your own limitations and biases while staying curious and committed to learning ·   Be prepared for these conversations—even if you don't specialize in reproductive mental health Stay in Touch with Curt, Katie, and the whole Therapy Reimagined #TherapyMovement: Our Linktree: https://linktr.ee/therapyreimagined Modern Therapist's Survival Guide Creative Credits: Voice Over by DW McCann https://www.facebook.com/McCannDW/ Music by Crystal Grooms Mangano https://groomsymusic.com/
