La Porta | Renungan Harian Katolik - Daily Meditation according to Catholic Church liturgy
Delivered by Ria from the Parish of Good Shepherd in the Diocese of Surabaya, Indonesia. Exodus 16: 1-5.9-15; Rs psalm 78: 18-19.23-24.25-26.27-28; Matthew 13: 1-9.HUNGRY FOR THE WORD OF GOD The title for our meditation today is:Hungry For The Word of God. There was a 5th grade elementary school boyapproached the Pastor after the Holly Mass was celebrated. In his homily, thePastor described how the hearts and minds of human beings are like fertile soilwhich is hungry for planting crops. The boy said to the Pastor in this way:"Earlier before Mass I felt hungry, but after hearing the Pastor's sermonand until the Mass finished I do not feel hungry anymore." The priest then said to a number ofpeople who were there, that if all the people who attend the worships andcelebration of the sacraments, have the attitude like that elementary schoolboy, our Church would be an ideal Church desired by the Lord Jesus. Because Godalways says, as stated in the scriptures, whoever is hungry for Him and comesto get food from Him, he will not be anymore hungry. When the Lord Jesus says that"The seed that falls on good soil produces hundredfold fruits", Hewants to teach us about hunger for the Word of God. Good and fertile soil is asymbol of ourselves as individuals and groups both in families and incommunities. That elementary school boy is a representation of all of us, whichmakes the Word of God a special gift of God that is poured out and falls intous, and is expected to grow there. How God's word can grow and ultimatelymultiply, as we all know, then eventually bear fruits? A growth that gives noresults, just like the fruitless fig tree that the Lord cursed. We really needsupporting factors in order to provide growth and give the expected results. Inthis reflection we can mention a number of these factors. First, in various spiritual activitiesthat serve the Word of God, our most fundamental attitude needs to bemanifested, that is our feeling of hunger for the Word of God. We depart fromthe conditions and life experiences that show we are hungry and really want tobe given spiritual food. Without feeling hungry, one can be considered asinfertile land. Furthermore, in order to have satisfaction and to provideenergy for our continual growth, we need two qualities, namely understandingand practice the Word of God. The ability to understand the word ofGod requires us to listen carefully and earnestly. The ability to carry out theWord of God requires us to understand correctly, continually and in relevance with our real lives. Be yourselfhungry for God's Word. Let's pray. In the name of theFather... O God, may the word of Jesus Christ Your Son grow and bear fruitalways in us. Hail Mary full of grace ... In the name of the Father...

Ep 99 (http://ibit.ly/Re5V) Karen Yates on how dual qualified and rural midwifery demands different skills but offers unique rewards.@PhDMidwives #research #midwifery #education #dualqualified #rural #retirementtravelresearch link - ibit.ly/H5wrqWhat does it take to stay true to your passion while adapting to life's changing demands? In this enlightening conversation, recently retired midwifery academic Karen Yates shares her remarkable journey from accidental midwife to respected researcher and mentor.Karen's story begins unexpectedly in Darwin, where a brief student placement ignited a lifelong devotion to midwifery. After moving to Cairns, she navigated the challenges of the private healthcare system while raising young children, taking on night shifts that offered both family flexibility and greater clinical autonomy. Her gradual transition to education and research wasn't planned—it evolved organically from her interest in supporting midwives across Queensland's vast rural and remote communities.The heart of our discussion explores Karen's PhD journey, which examined rural midwives working across dual roles. Her findings revealed professionals who identified passionately as midwives but accepted nursing duties as the necessary compromise for maintaining their cherished rural lifestyles. What began as a workplace investigation became a profound exploration of professional identity and work-life priorities. Most remarkably, Karen completed this rigorous research while unexpectedly serving in a demanding leadership position, demonstrating extraordinary determination and focus.We also delve into how Queensland's rural midwifery landscape has transformed in recent years, with midwifery group practice models now established in areas where practitioners once couldn't imagine midwifery-only roles. Karen shares eye-opening stories about the stark differences between urban and rural practice, highlighting how simulation courses that deliberately mixed practitioners from different settings created powerful learning opportunities.Now enjoying retirement, Karen continues mentoring PhD students while embracing travel, family time, and theatrical adventures. Her practical wisdom about maintaining balance, pursuing passionate research, and valuing lived experience provides inspiration for midwives at all career stages. Whether you're considering postgraduate study, navigating multiple professional roles, or seeking greater work-life harmony, this conversation offers valuable insights from someone who's navigated the journey with humour, pragmatism and unwavering commitment to midwifery.

This fascinating conversation takes us from her PhD findings on midwifery obedience to the creation of the internationally recognized Birth Satisfaction Scale now validated in 23 countries and counting.At the heart of this discussion lies a profound truth: hierarchical structures in healthcare often prevent midwives from providing truly woman-centered care despite their best intentions. Caroline describes how this realization led her to develop a practical tool that captures women's birth experiences in a user-friendly format suited to new mothers. This scale has become the international measurement tool of choice for assessing birth satisfaction.Particularly illuminating are the discoveries about cultural differences in birth satisfaction. The scale manifests as a three-factor structure in Western countries but a two-factor structure in East Asian nations—reflecting how cultural expectations around obedience and choice significantly shape women's birth experiences. This research has expanded to include partner perspectives through matched scales that measure how birth partners experience the same events.The conversation doesn't shy away from concerning trends in modern maternity care, including rising cesarean rates and the physiological implications of bypassing natural birth processes. "Oxytocin is the hormone of love," Caroline reminds us, highlighting what women may miss when natural birth processes are interrupted unnecessarily. She also addresses the challenges facing midwifery today, from retention issues to the need for expanded scope of practice.Whether you're a midwife, researcher, expectant parent, or simply interested in how birth culture affects families, this episode offers profound insights into how measuring birth satisfaction can transform maternity care globally.

On Sunday we continued along inour Micah series, looking at 6:1-8. Inthis lawsuit dialogue, the Lord tries to see what caused the breakdown with their covenant. The people offer many things to set things right, all which miss the point. Micah famously then says what God truly wants is us to practice justice, promote hesed love and walk humbly with Him.
On Sunday we continued along inour Micah series, looking at 5:1-5. Inthis back and forth message of hope and doom, the prophet speaks of a day when Bethlehem will save all people. This is a theme picked up by Matthew as he writes about the birth of Christ.We as humans often think God only shows up in the mighty and the powerful, but the path of Jesus is one marked by simplicity, humility and welcoming in the least.

Caroline Hollings-Martin takes us on her extraordinary journey from the moment she witnessed a birth video in secondary school and thought, "That is a miracle" to becoming a professor with over 139 published papers spanning midwifery, psychology, and birth trauma.Travelling through four decades of healthcare evolution, Caroline shares fascinating contrasts between midwifery training then—with its starched caps and strict hierarchies—and now. Her vivid descriptions transport us to delivery rooms where she discovered her purpose and academic halls where she pushed boundaries by combining midwifery with psychology long before interdisciplinary approaches became mainstream.The conversation reveals powerful insights about evidence-based practice, exploring why healthcare professionals sometimes struggle to challenge authority even when research supports them. Caroline's groundbreaking work on birth satisfaction (creating the BSS-R scale now used globally) and birth trauma offers practical tools for identifying women needing support, while her work with Turner syndrome demonstrates how midwifery skills extend beyond traditional settings.Most compelling is her candid account of completing a PhD while working full-time—comparing the process to labor itself: "Every contraction is one less. It's like three feet forward and two back, but you're inching forward with every contraction." Her purple graduation shoes story perfectly captures the determination that drives her work and inspires listeners to pursue their own academic dreams.Whether you're considering advanced education, seeking to blend disciplines in your career, or simply fascinated by the evolution of healthcare, this episode offers both practical wisdom and heartfelt inspiration.

Theseverses 17-19, continue the confrontation that Jesus has on Tuesday of PassionWeek with the scribes, the priests, and the elders, just days before He iscrucified. Jesus has just finished telling a parable to the people that thesereligious leaders were also carefully listening to. It was the story of the ownerof a vineyard who finally sent his beloved son to receive the fruit, but he isrejected and killed by the vinedressers. They realize Jesus is claiming to bethe son in the story who is being rejected and killed. NowJesus turns back from the crowd to these leaders of the Jews and speaks directlyto them and quoted Psalm 118:22. The rulers knew that this was a messianicpsalm, and they had heard some verse from this same psalm shouted by the crowdwhen Jesus rode into the city (compare Luke 19:38 with Ps. 118:26). By applyingthis verse to Himself, Jesus was clearly claiming to be the Messiah. The"builders who rejected the stone”, were of course, were the Jewishreligious leaders (Acts 4:11). Inthe Old Testament, the "stone" is a familiar symbol of God and of thepromised Messiah (see Gen. 49:24; Ex. 17:6; 33:22; Deut. 32:4, 15, 30-31; Isa.8:14; 28:16; 1 Cor. 10:4). Because the Jews did not believe, they stumbled overHim and were judged. Those who trust Jesus Christ find Him to be the foundationstone and the chief cornerstone of the church (1 Cor. 3:11; Eph. 2:20). ButJesus is also referring to Daniel 2:34-35, 44-45. This is where Daniel is interpretingthe dream of King Nebuchadnezzar where the Messiah is pictured as a"smiting stone" that crushes all that gets in its way. He was warningthe Sanhedrin that they would only destroy themselves if they condemned Him. Weneed to realized that this same principle applies today, and unbelievers shouldcarefully heed His warning. Youmight think about it this way. When the rulers rejected John the Baptist, theysinned against the Father who sent Him. When they crucified Jesus, they sinnedagainst the Son. Jesus had told them that they could sin against Him and stillbe forgiven, but when they sinned against the Holy Spirit, there could be noforgiveness (Matt. 12:24-37). Why? Because that was the end of God's witness tothe nation. Thisis the so-called "unpardonable sin," and it was committed by theJewish leaders when they finally rejected the witness of the Spirit of Godthrough the Apostles. The evidence of their rejection was the stoning ofStephen (Acts 7:51-60). Then the Gospel went from the Jews to the Samaritans(Acts 8) and then to the Gentiles (Acts 10). Even today the Jewish people havea double veil over their eyes that keeps them from acknowledging that Jesus istheir promised Messiah (2 Corinthians 3:7-18). Inthis parable of the vineyard and vinedressers who rejected the servants of theowner and kill his son, Jesus illustrated the insidious nature of sin: the morewe sin, the worse it becomes. The tenants started off beating some of theservants and wounding others, but they ended up becoming murderers! The Jewishleaders permitted John the Baptist to be killed, they asked for Jesus to becrucified, and then they themselves stoned Stephen. They sinned against theFather and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and that was the end of God's witnessto them. Itis a serious thing to reject the message of God and the messengers of God (seeJohn 12:35-43) Remember the warning we read in Hebrews 2:1-4; “For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and everytransgression and disobedience received a just reward, how shall we escape ifwe neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by theLord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him, Today,if the Holy Spirit is dealing with you heart about salvation or some sin inyour life, respond in humility and repentance, trusting and receiving theforgiveness that only Jesus can give you!

For Qorinah Estiningtyas Sakliah Adnani, it was a deeply personal mission born from tragedy.When Qorinah lost her mother at just 13 months old, the experience silently shaped her childhood in rural East Java, Indonesia. Decades later, this loss would fuel her extraordinary journey to strengthen midwifery education across Indonesia's 17,000 islands and beyond.In this powerful conversation, Qorinah reveals the remarkable path that took her from a small village to becoming the first in her family to pursue doctoral education. With stunning candor, she describes learning English from scratch, improving her IELTS score from 4 to 6.5, and relocating to New Zealand for PhD studies – all while colleagues back home mocked her ambitions as impossible.The conversation explores Indonesia's established midwifery continuity of care model, where one midwife serves an entire village, creating intergenerational relationships rarely documented in research literature. Qorinah's groundbreaking work bringing these practices to international attention has earned her recognition among the world's top 2% of scientists.Perhaps most inspiring is her discussion of resilience through setbacks – from language barriers and homesickness during her PhD to returning home only to face career obstacles that ultimately led to new opportunities at one of Indonesia's premier universities and as the first Asian midwife visiting scholar at Yale.This episode isn't just about midwifery or academic achievement. It's about how determination, supportive communities, and what Qorinah calls "greed and commitment" can transform personal loss into global impact. Whether you're facing seemingly insurmountable barriers or seeking inspiration to pursue your own impossible dreams, this conversation reminds us that with persistence, even the most challenging journeys can lead to extraordinary destinations.

Some bearings are tough enough to survive 3000 horsepower, but that doesn't mean you should use them in your street build.Choosing the right bearing isn't as simple as just picking the toughest option and sometimes what seems like a part from 'the top shelf' can do more harm than good. In this interview, Christian from Nitto Performance Engineering breaks down some small but key differences between OEM-style bearings, ACL Race Series bearings, and coated bearings like those treated by Calico. While high-end coatings offer increased durability for extreme horsepower builds, they come with trade-offs in embeddability and long-term street reliability.Use ‘PODCAST75' for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-inThis conversation clears up common misconceptions around bearing selection, including how coatings affect clearance, what embeddability actually does, and why some “race-spec” parts can do more harm than good in the wrong application. Christian explains that coatings like Calico are better suited to high-power engines with short service intervals, not long-life street builds.If you're chasing reliability and performance, this video will help you make an informed decision and avoid common (and expensive) bearing mistakes. Whether you're building a 3000hp drag monster or a 1000hp weekend car, it's about matching the component to your use case, not just chasing specs.
If you feel stuck, invisible, or like your life is playing on mute — this episode is your wake-up call.You are NOT broken. You've just been dimming your light to fit into places that were never meant to contain your greatness. In this raw and powerful episode, I'm calling you out (with love) and showing you exactly how to flip the internal switch that's been holding you back.We're diving into:
Today,we're looking at Luke chapter 18, specifically verses 35-43, the last verses ofthe chapter. Jesus began this chapter by teaching about prayer, that men oughtalways to pray and not to faint. He gave us several stories about prayer. Inthese last verses Jesus teaches us that the prayer that always turns the ear ofGod to see our need, and give us the miracle that we need, is the “desperate prayer”.Now, as Luke ends this chapter, he points out a certain man who was a beggarand blind, who came to Jesus. Inthis chapter, we've seen contrasts between different people and situations.Here, we see the contrast between this beggar who was blind and the rich manwho came to Jesus. Matthew's and Mark's gospels tell us there were two beggars,but in the Gospel of Luke, it appears Luke loves to point out how Jesus isinterested in the individual. It didn't matter if there were a hundred sheep;he's interested in one. If there are ten pieces of silver, there's one. Ifthere are two sons, there's one. If there are two beggars, here in Luke's Gospel,there's one. God is interested in you. He knows your need. He wants you to cryout to him. Ifthere's anything we learn about prayer in this chapter, it's that men oughtalways to pray. We're not to pray like the Pharisee, but we come desperately toJesus. The rich young ruler came, thought well of himself, and bragged abouthis goodness. This beggar wouldn't be quiet when he heard Jesus was passing by.He was desperate for his need to be healed and would cry out, even when peopletold him to be quiet. That's another thing you learn from this chapter: thewidow in the first verses of the chapter kept crying out, even though the judgewouldn't listen. The beggar, even though people told him to be quiet, cried outanyway. Ilove the contrast here, and we're encouraged to cry out in desperation. TheScripture says, "You shall seek me and find me when you have searchedfor me with all your heart." That's how you come to Jesus; that's howyou come in faith, believing. This man was blind and acknowledged it. He had nospecial merits to cry out and say, "Oh, I've been good; I've donethis." He had nothing. He came empty and went away rich. The rich man camevery rich and left eternally poor. Myfriend, there's so much we learn from this. I encourage you today: you mightfeel like you have nothing, no merits to come to Christ, or that you've lived alife that merits none of his grace. But you can come in your desperation. If Iknow and have learned one thing from my years of ministry it is that God hearsthe prayers of desperate people. Honestly, I don't know if we really pray untilwe get desperate. The fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much because wemeet Jesus where He is, and we cry out to Him. The"human stories” we have "read" in this chapter should also encourageus to put our faith in Jesus Christ, no matter what others may say or do. Thewidow was not discouraged by the indifferent attitude of the judge, nor thepublican by the hypocritical attitude of the Pharisee. The parents broughttheir little ones to Jesus in spite of the selfish attitude of the Apostles,and the blind men came to Jesus even though the crowd told them to keep quietand stay put. Jesus always responds to faith and rewards those who believe. Whata wonderful story to end this chapter. This poor blind beggar left rejoicing,and the people were praising God. Remember, the rich man left very sad andsorrowful. Don't leave that way, my friend. Come to Jesus, meet Him, have yourlife changed, and let Hm give you your sight. Jesusasked this blind man, "What do you want Me to do for you?"? Theman said, "Lord, that I may receive my sight." God made himpoint out his need, and Jesus met that need right where he was. I trust thatyou'll trust the Lord today to meet your need. Jesus is always ready to answerthe prayer of a desperate person!

Ep 95 (http://ibit.ly/Re5V) 2025 Virtual International Day of the Midwife (VIDM), a 24-hour FREE ONLINE CONFERENCE wrap up@PhDMidwives #research #midwifery @VIDofM #VIDM2025 @ICM program - vidm.orgrecordings - YouTube @VirtualMidwivesThe global midwifery community came together in an extraordinary display of connection, solidarity, and knowledge exchange during the Virtual International Day of the Midwife 2025. With participation spanning 57 countries and content delivered continuously over 24 hours, this barrier-breaking event showcased the diversity, resilience, and innovation driving midwifery care worldwide.At its heart, VIDM2025 celebrated the power of professional relationships. The evidence was clear – midwives thrive when supported by strong professional networks, with positive ripple effects extending to maternal and newborn outcomes. This theme of connection wove throughout the conference, from Bangladesh's peer mentoring program for midwifery educators to collaborative frameworks addressing workplace abuse.Cultural responsiveness emerged as a crucial component of effective care, with several presentations examining how midwives navigate cross-cultural interactions. These presentations confronted uncomfortable truths about racism and cultural misconceptions in healthcare while offering practical pathways toward more equitable care.The conference showcased remarkable resilience in challenging circumstances, perhaps most powerfully demonstrated by Afghan midwives who've created online education programs in response to Taliban bans on women's higher education. This determination to preserve midwifery knowledge despite extreme adversity spoke volumes about the profession's commitment to women's health against all odds.Clinical innovation flourished throughout the program, from Ethiopia's successful implementation of midwifery-led pelvic floor training to Ireland's Labour Hopscotch tool that significantly reduced intervention rates. Presentations on artificial intelligence applications, water birth perceptions in Nigeria, and acupressure for labor induction demonstrated midwifery's embrace of both traditional wisdom and cutting-edge approaches. Kate Greenstock beautifully captured the conference's spirit with her message about "flourishing in heartbreak and hope." Her insights on staying connected to purpose while facing healthcare challenges resonated deeply, as reflected in the word cloud where "empowered" emerged as participants' strongest feeling when connecting with fellow midwives.Whether you're seeking evidence-based clinical approaches, strategies for professional sustainability, or inspiration from global midwifery leaders, the recordings available on YouTube (search "Virtual Midwives") from July onwards offer an invaluable resource. Experience the global midwifery community's collective wisdom and discover how connection strengthens our profession worldwide.

1Thessalonians 5:17 - “Pray without ceasing”. Ifwe don't pray, we will faint; it's as simple as that! The word faint describesa believer who loses heart and gets so discouraged that he or she wants toquit. There is a connection between what our Lord said in Luke 18:1 and Hisstatement in Luke 17:37. If society is like a rotting corpse, then the"atmosphere" in which we live is being slowly polluted, and this isbound to affect our spiritual lives. But when we pray, we draw on the"pure air" of heaven, and this keeps us from fainting. Inother words, we're living in a polluted, ungodly, wicked world, it appears tobe controlled by Satan, and if we're not careful we will faint. On severaloccasions, I have fainted. It is usually when a doctor or nurse sticks a needlein my arm to draw blood or put something inside me. It causes me to start goingout, and I'll say to the people around me, "I'll see you later." Myblood pressure drops, my pulse drops, and I faint. Have you ever notice that onething they always do when someone faints is give them air or some good oxygen. Inthis passage in Luke 18, Jesus said men ought always to pray and not to faint.Then he tells the story of the widow and the unjust judge and talks about theadversary that's out to overcome this woman. My friend, we live in a pollutedworld, breathing its air, and if we're not careful, we won't get enoughspiritual oxygen, the pure atmosphere of heaven in our spiritual life. We willthrow in the towel and quit, looking at the circumstances rather than the greatGod who is in charge and has already defeated Satan on the cross. We need to breathethe spiritual air of heaven. That'swhat praying is all about. Men ought always to pray, as the scripture teachesus. We are to pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Thisdoesn't mean repeating the same prayer over and over, but that praying should becomeas natural as breathing. We don't think about breathing until we can't breathe,until we need oxygen in our body. That's when we learn to pray always, withoutceasing, because prayer becomes as natural as breathing. We're always thinking,"God, you're right here with me, you're going to answer our prayers,you're a Father who cares about me." Prayeris much more than the words on our lips; it's the desires of our heart. Ourhearts are constantly desiring Him. If you're desiring the things of the worldand the flesh, looking at circumstances, problems, and difficulties, you'll beoverwhelmed and faint. You won't have enough spiritual oxygen. That's when ourheart cries out to God, "Oh God, help me, meet my needs, speak to me,strengthen me, give me the grace I need to face this situation." Prayingwithout ceasing means that we have holy desires, we want to do the will of God,we're constantly loving Him and in communion with our Father in heaven,desiring His blessings. That's what real prayer is. Myfriend, we're either going to choose to pray or we're going to faint, throw inthe towel, and quit. We'll lose heart in the battle. But we need to rememberthat the battle's already won through Jesus Christ and His cross. Yesterday, Isaid we're kind of like the woman, hopeless and helpless, with no standingbefore the court. But in another way, it's just the opposite. We're not likethis woman; we are children of God. We have access to the Father. (We will talkmore about that tomorrow). Today,remember you're a child of God. God delights for you to be in His presence. Hewants you to have Him on your heart continually. When you do that, you'repraying without ceasing, breathing the spiritual air of heaven. You'restrengthened, encouraged, you sense His presence, and everything's okay. “Iwill not fear, even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,for Thou art with me” (Psalm 23:4). Itrust you will have a wonderful day thinking about these things.

Ep 94 (http://ibit.ly/Re5V) Ep 94 Elise Erickson on how oxytocin shapes our birth experience and trying to predict birth@PhDMidwives #research #midwifery @uarizona #epigenticaging #hormones #pphresearch link -t.ly/ea0x1MuMH lab -https://www.mumhlab.com/From witnessing her first birth as an undergraduate to pioneering research on the biology of childbirth, Elise Erickson takes us on a compelling journey through her evolution from midwife to maternal health researcher.Elise, associate professor at the University of Arizona and certified nurse midwife of nearly 20 years, shares the moment that changed everything—a women's health course that aligned her interests in biology, healthcare, and feminist theory. Her subsequent path through midwifery education revealed the power of community-based care, particularly in group prenatal settings where women support each other through pregnancy and beyond.What truly stands out is Elise's ground breaking research at her MUM Lab (Mechanisms Underpinning Maternal Health). She's challenging conventional wisdom about maternal age, investigating biological aging markers that may better predict pregnancy outcomes than simply counting birthdays. Perhaps most exciting is her innovative work using smart rings to track body temperature patterns that could predict labour onset—potentially transforming how we approach inductions and birth timing.The conversation delves into the complex relationship between synthetic oxytocin (commonly used in labour) and postpartum outcomes. Through meticulous research, Elise explores how this medication might affect everything from postpartum haemorrhage risk to breastfeeding success by altering oxytocin receptor function. Her work exemplifies the vital connection between clinical observation and scientific inquiry.Looking forward, Elise envisions truly personalized maternal care that integrates biological markers, personal preferences, and social contexts—moving beyond one-size-fits-all approaches while maintaining safety standards. Her story reminds us how curiosity and compassion can drive scientific discovery that transforms lives.Want to learn more about the cutting-edge research happening in maternal health?

Linda Sweet's remarkable journey provides a masterclass in connecting clinical challenges to academic solutions that genuinely improve care.Growing up in rural Australia without knowing what a midwife was, Linda's career trajectory took her from nursing to neonatal intensive care, where her passion for supporting new mothers was ignited. Her PhD research on breastfeeding experiences for parents of very low birth weight preterm infants revolutionized how we understand maternal experiences in neonatal units. Linda's discovery of the "objectification of breast milk" – where visible storage created harmful comparison between mothers – has influenced modern practices like using brown paper bags to preserve privacy and dignity.The conversation weaves through Linda's impressive research portfolio, from ground breaking work on pregnancy after bariatric surgery to creating visual heat maps showing obesity prevalence across Victoria. What stands out is her commitment to research that solves real problems she witnessed first hand. Linda embodies the clinician-researcher who bridges the gap between evidence and implementation.Perhaps most significant is Linda's dedication to building research capacity in midwifery. Through innovative approaches like research internships, small grants, and mentoring early-career midwives, she's creating pathways that didn't exist when she began. Her international collaborations in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea demonstrate how midwifery research can transcend borders and improve global maternal health.For anyone considering a research career or wondering how to balance clinical practice with academic pursuits, Linda offers invaluable insights about creating your own celebration rituals, finding supportive communities, and choosing paths aligned with your long-term goals. Her story proves that whether you're rescuing research from crashed computers or changing practice through heat maps, persistence and passion are the cornerstones of impactful midwifery research.

Your body is capable of recovering from absolutely anything that ails you, provided you support it in the healing journey. As we age, it is very important to take time for yourself and to help your body, mind, and soul heal from previous traumas, so that you have more time to enjoy this gift called life. You will learn exactly how to do that with this course.Is it just for men, or can women join?Whilst the course was originally tailored towards men, 95% of it will also be very beneficial for women too! You might notice this male-based origin in the video modules where I refer to men or address you as "my brothers", and in the few parts where we discuss testosterone, male mental health issues etc.However, all of the advice, health strategies, recipes, exercises, stretches, mental health routines etc, can be utilised by both men and women and can vastly improve your life and health. In fact, the content in the Masterclass has already helped a lot of women in my life, including my youngest daughter who has endometriosis. The only thing missing for women is that I don't discuss female hormones or the menopause, as I'm not well versed in these areas.Do I have to be over a certain age to join?My programme has been tailored to those in their Golden Years (usually age 55+), as it is around this time that our metabolic processes change, mobility reduces, energy and hormone levels drop, and nutrition needs fluctuate (although this can happen earlier for some). I noticed changes in my early fifties and had to adapt my approach to match this new chapter in my life, which is why I aimed this course at people around this age, as the knowledge within it is particularly useful for those who are nearing (or are already in) their golden years. How long does the course take? I'm busy and don't know if I'll be able to fit it inThis course has been carefully designed to have all the information you need, without additional fluff or wasted time. There is a vast amount of content, however you choose the speed at which you go through the modules, and you can revisit them as often as you want. Basically, it takes as long or as little time as you choose to invest in it.Show lessSupport the show

Ep 92 (http://ibit.ly/Re5V) Hannah Dahlen on the path of a feminist midwife championing change and a sustainable research future@PhDMidwives #research #midwifery #education @westernsydneyu #bigdata #Yemen #sustainability #perinealwarmpacks #leadershipresearch link - ibit.ly/Y58MLFrom seeing her first baby born as a child in Yemen to becoming a Professor of Midwifery at Western Sydney University, Hannah's journey illuminates the evolution of modern midwifery practice, research, and leadership in Australia.Hannah's story begins in the clinics of Yemen where her mother practiced midwifery, instilling in her a powerful feminist perspective that has guided her entire career. After training in the UK, Hannah returned to Australia in 1991 to find a healthcare system dominated by medical authority where midwives struggled for autonomy. Rather than accepting this status quo, she channeled her experiences into advocacy, rising through the ranks of professional organizations while conducting groundbreaking research. Her world-renowned study on perineal warm packs transformed an "old wives' tale" into level-one evidence now recommended in clinical guidelines worldwide.Throughout our conversation, Hannah weaves together personal experience with professional insights about leading change in healthcare. She shares wisdom about building movements rather than seeking individual recognition, the importance of mentoring future leaders, and how academic research has empowered midwifery's professional standing. Her recent work on birth trauma through the Birth Experience Study (BEST) has gathered responses from over 8,800 Australian women and is now being replicated in fourteen countries, challenging systemic issues in maternity care.Perhaps most compelling is Hannah's reflection on sustainability in leadership and the personal costs of advocacy. As she approaches her sixtieth birthday, she speaks candidly about learning to say no, finding balance, and encouraging a new generation to move midwifery from "surviving to thriving to transformation." Listen for powerful insights on leadership, research, and creating change that lasts generations, not just moments.

This episode offers a heartfelt exploration of the PhD experience, shining a spotlight on the emotional and practical hurdles faced by students studying abroad. Ans continues to unpack stories of resilience and commitment, where supportive supervisors and a sense of duty to research participants become vital lifelines. We also contrast the cultural nuances of celebrating the milestone of completing a PhD in Scotland's communal ceremonies versus Holland's personalized moments, and ponder the impact of digital submissions on the joy of achievement.We then shift gears to explore the often-overlooked world of midwifery, where relationships hold more power than hospital walls. Ans highlight the ethical environment necessary for antenatal care and argue for the acknowledgment of midwives' profound impact, especially in countries where their contributions are undervalued. This segment calls for midwives to transcend institutional boundaries, strengthening their bonds with expectant mothers and redefining healthcare's relational dynamics as a competitive advantage.Finally, Ans delves into the broader themes of academic recognition and community building. The undervaluation of doctorates, particularly among women, and the transformative journey of a PhD, open up discussions on the unique skill sets developed and their potential to drive organizational growth. We also reflect on the essential role schools play beyond academics, as crucial social ecosystems where children learn the importance of caring for each other.
