Episode 224: Community Health Workers Dr. Arreaza: Today we will discuss a topic that, frankly, every single person listening, whether you're a medical student, a resident, a nurse, a family doctor, or any primary care provider, needs to really understand. We're talking about community health workers (CHWs). We are joined by our stellar medical student; you may be familiar with her voice from previous episodes about insomnia. Moira, welcome, please introduce yourself.  Moira: I want to be upfront about why Community Health Workers matter to you specifically. If you've ever felt frustrated that your patient with uncontrolled diabetes keeps missing appointments because they can't get a ride, or that your heart failure patient was readmitted because nobody checked whether they could afford their medications, then you already understand the problem that CHWs are designed to solve. Dr. Arreaza: We're going to give you the definition of a CHW, the evidence behind their effectiveness, how they fit into your care team, the return on investment, and practical steps for integrating them into your practice. We have pulled information from a lot of peer-reviewed sources, and we want to share them with you. So, Moira, let's start with the basics. What exactly is a community health worker? Moira: Great question, and it's one that even literature struggles with, because there are so many titles for this role. Community Health Worker is an umbrella term that encompasses more than 20 different titles including outreach workers, promotores or promotoras de salud, community health representatives, lay health workers, peer educators, patient navigators, and many more. The American Public Health Association defines CHWs as frontline public health workers who are trusted members of or have an unusually close understanding of the communities they serve. Arreaza: And that trust is so important in health care. CHWs are not physicians. They are not nurses. They do not diagnose or prescribe. But they are like a bridge connecting the medical environment, social services, and the community to reduce gaps in healthcare delivery.  Moira: Exactly. In the United States, the role was formally recognized in the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which includes several sections highlighting the key roles CHWs play in achieving important goals of healthcare. ________________ References:  Aguerrebere, M., Rodríguez-Cuevas, F.

From Yale to the University of Chicago to the International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA) and beyond, Lear creatively combined his clinical experiences, a rigorous reading of Freud, and a perspective steeped in classical Western philosophical traditions. As Chris, Abby, and Patrick explore, the result is a singular body of work that clarifies otherwise challenging questions of epistemology and hermeneutics while also speaking directly to urgent political questions and the lived texture of contemporary human life. Chris, Abby, and Patrick proceed by close reading a chapter from one of Lear's most celebrated works, Love and Its Place in Nature, unpacking Lear's account of how love underwrites human development by making possible the experience of a “good-enough world.” The three then walk through the ethical implications of Lear's thought for the institutions and practices of contemporary psychotherapy, which often neglect interpretative dialogue and attentive care in favor of alienating and crudely pathologizing both patients and practitioners. The conversation builds to a discussion by Chris of how Lear, together with Fanon, has inspired his own work in community psychoanalysis, in facilitating a working group for practitioners, and in critiquing the power dynamics of the contemporary clinical landscape.Have you noticed that Freud is back?

In this episode of Do Good to Lead Well, I welcome Dr. Jacqueline Sperling, a clinical psychologist, assistant professor in psychology at Harvard Medical School, and the co-founder and co-program director of the McLean Anxiety Mastery Program at McLean Hospital to discuss her latest book, “Find Your Fierce: How to Put Social Anxiety in Its Place.”Motivated by long waitlists at treatment centers and the slow path many face toward accessing help for social anxiety, Jacqueline Sperling shares her mission: to offer practical, evidence-based tools that anyone can use, regardless of clinical diagnosis or age. She grounds her message in empowerment, emphasizing that anxiety is a universal emotion—sometimes adaptive, sometimes disruptive—but always manageable with the right approach.Major themes include: • Understanding Anxiety: Dr. Sperling defines anxiety as a forward-looking form of fear and reframes it as a resource that can help us prepare for life's challenges, provided we don't let it dominate our decision-making. • The Thoughts-Feelings-Behaviors Model: Our discussion breaks down how our internal dialogue, emotions, and actions interconnect. Techniques like “stop, drop, and roll” and identification of unhelpful thought categories (catastrophizing, shoulds, overgeneralizing) are brought to life through questions from the live audience. • Leadership and Team Dynamics: We explore how leaders can compassionately address anxiety in their teams, foster psychological safety, and model healthy boundaries, which are especially during disruptive times and organizational uncertainty.Check out this episode for an honest, caring invitation for how we can create lasting mental health hygiene: a daily, mindful practice to care for ourselves, as we pursue meaningful work and lead with compassion.What You'll Learn- How to flip the script when you always expect the worst.- How leaders can compassionately support team members stuck in negative thought cycles.- Strategies for dealing with imposter syndrome and perfectionism.- Practical tips for receiving feedback without defensiveness.- Ways to maintain resilience in uncertain, disruptive times.- The power of mental health hygiene.Podcast Timestamps02:15 Dr. Jacqueline Sperling's background04:07 Origin story of "Find Your Fierce" book05:48 Understanding anxiety vs. fear07:49 The three-component model (thoughts, feelings, behaviors)10:04 Stop, drop, and roll technique14:23 Managing catastrophizing in team members18:54 Addressing imposter syndrome23:01 Overcoming fear of speaking up in meetings28:08 Values-based anxiety management31:53 The "shoulds" and "musts" trap33:51 Receiving feedback effectively38:03 Managing team anxiety during disruption40:06 Addressing perfectionism44:40 Delegation and leadership anxiety48:33 Overgeneralizing dangers52:07 Mental health hygiene practicesKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Managing Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Thought-Feeling-Behavior Model, Catastrophizing, Mindfulness, Imposter Syndrome, Perfectionism, Exposure Therapy, Behavioral Experiments, Self-insight, Mental Health Hygiene, Resilience, Stress Management, Reframing, Team Dynamics, Sleep Hygiene, Self-care, CEO Success

He bought the URL superintelligence.com back in 2006, and many years before that, in the late 1980s, he co-authored a series of papers with one of the founding fathers of AI, Herbert Simon.Craig started his career as a scientist with IBM, and later founded and ran a venture-backed company called PredictWallStreet that brought the wisdom of the crowd to Wall Street, and improved the performance of leading hedge funds. He sold that company in 2020, and now spends his time working out how to make the first superintelligence safe.

Is your child a picky eater, or is it something more serious — and how can you tell? Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) goes far beyond food preferences. It's driven by deep-seated fears of choking, vomiting, or other anxieties that can lead to dangerous nutritional deficiencies. In this episode, Gabe Howard sits down with ADAA member expert Dr. Jacqueline Sperling, a clinical psychologist and Harvard Medical School professor, to break down the signs of ARFID, outline how it differs from typical picky eating, and mention when parents should seek professional help. Learn how to spot the red flags, understand the role of anxiety in food avoidance, and discover ways to support kids managing this lesser known eating disorder. If mealtimes are a battle in your home, this episode is a must-listen! Special thanks to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America for sponsoring this episode.  “They could have different obsessions of what might happen should they eat any of those foods. Some could have a fear that there's contamination. Some can have a fear that it's cooked all the way. Some can have a concern that something separate from the food, but a negative consequence may happen if they eat those foods. It can also happen that someone is worried about having IBS symptoms in public, so they don't want to eat certain foods. And so they limit the foods that they eat, or even when they're at home because they're worried about when they go out in public afterward.” ~Jacqueline Sperling, PhD Our guest, Jacqueline Sperling, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist, assistant professor in psychology at Harvard Medical School, and the co-founder and co-program director of the McLean Anxiety Mastery Program at McLean Hospital. She is the author of the young adult nonfiction book “Find Your Fierce: How to Put Social Anxiety in Its Place” and a contributor for Harvard Health Publishing. Dr. Sperling specializes in implementing cognitive behavioral therapy with exposure and response prevention and working with youth with anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder. She also focuses on caregiver guidance, such as by using behavioral parent training, to help families address children's internalizing and externalizing behaviors. In addition, Dr. Sperling is passionate about disseminating evidence-based information to the community, and she frequently speaks about the impact of social media use on mental health. Moreover, Dr. Sperling is committed to increasing access to care and participates in advocacy at state and federal government levels.

Have you ever felt the weight of being a man in today's rapidly changing world? Join me and men's coach Nico Lagan as we tackle the complexities of modern masculinity, shedding light on the struggle of reconciling traditional values with contemporary societal expectations. We wade through discussions on stoicism, the contentious idea of toxic masculinity, and how these concepts are reshaping men's identities. Nico's transformative journey from a troubled past to guiding others towards purpose serves as a beacon for those navigating the choppy waters of self-discovery and growth. Fatherhood, or the lack thereof, casts a long shadow over the lives of many men. In this heartfelt segment, we don't shy away from the tough questions, probing into the effects of absent fathers and the emotional voids they leave behind. From my own story of growing up without a father to the broader societal consequences of paternal absence, we examine the critical role of both parents in nurturing emotional intelligence. We emphasize that through love and accountability, life's hurdles can not only be overcome but can pave the way for a legacy of strength and vulnerability.As we wrap up, we hone in on the essence of what it takes to be a complete modern man. The conversation spans the importance of virtues like faith and courage, the life-altering impact of self-improvement activities such as martial arts, and the enduring relevance of traditional masculinity. We dissect the intrinsic qualities of a man as a protector and provider and lay out the essential virtues that carve out a meaningful existence. Thank you for joining the Revolutionary Man podcast, and remember—we're not just talking about change; we're embodying it, one man at a time.Key moments in this episode:03:12 Niko Lagan's Transformation: From Darkness to Light20:33 The Power of Accountability and Purpose in Manhood26:08 Exploring the Five Virtues of a Good Man31:16 Navigating Life's Challenges with Determination31:31 The Transformation Journey: From Corporate to Creator32:56 Mastering Your Body to Master Your Mind36:02 Becoming a Protector: The Essence of Masculinity38:03 The Role of a Provider: Beyond Financial Stability41:37 Temperance and Emotional Control: The Internal Battle45:58 Exploring Faith and Its Place in Modern Masculinity50:29 The Impact of Mentorship and Personal AccountabilityHow to reach Nico:

Kathy Hines, former Chief Marketing Officer at brands like Kipling, The North Face, and Dickies, shares her experience at VF corporation. She started her career in career management consulting at Bain and later went on to Nike, where she gained foundational experience in lifestyle and sports marketing. At Kipling, she led marketing strategy and E-commerce. She then led marketing and strategy for the North Face in Europe. After a four-year stint in VF Europe, she returned to the US and took on the role of global chief marketing officer for Dickies in Texas, where she was also responsible for licensing. Her experience at VF has given her a broad range of skills and experiences. Developing a Professional Marketing Plan Using a sports and lifestyles brand as an example, Kathy shares her process for developing a professional marketing plan. She begins by identifying the brand's aligned corporate strategy and working closely with the leadership team to understand financials and operational opportunities. The team then collectively develops long-term objectives, such as being the leader in performance and lifestyle apparel across key markets. For example, strategic choices include improving gross to net profits, targeting specific geographies, such as the UK, China, and the US, or focusing on elevating iconic products to consumers. The latter approach allows the brand to ensure it is the best in the world at that product. The marketing strategy should align with these strategic objectives and align with the brand foundations, which include the purpose of the brand, brand values, and brand personality. The Importance of Brand Foundations The brand foundations are essential for the marketing team to align on who they are and why they exist. These foundations include the brand purpose, the brand values, which define the brand, and the brand personality, which guides the direction of the brand in terms of the brand and design guidelines which are visual manifestations of the brand, while the tone document informs global communications, PR, and social media. The marketing plan should also include a clear vision for the brand, a clear mission statement, and a clear communication strategy. By focusing on these areas, the marketing team can create a comprehensive and effective marketing plan that aligns with the brand's long-term objectives and strategic choices. Examples of Brand Purpose and Its Place in the Marketing Plan Kathy shares several examples of brand purposes, including Kipling's brand purpose of making happy, and Napa's brand purpose of unlimit. These examples demonstrate the power of brand purpose in shaping a company's identity and strategy. A marketing plan can be a singular page or a series of sub-chapters, with the brand purpose at the top. The purpose is the pinnacle of the brand, defining its values, personnel, and personality. Sub-chapters can include marketing-related details and strategic choices to align the brand foundations with corporate strategy. If the brand purpose is a one-page manifestation, subsequent pages can further explore the brand purpose, values, personality, and how these factors inform communications in PR, social media, and ecommerce. These drill-downs are crucial for ensuring alignment with the brand's overall vision and strategy. Segmentation in Marketing Kathy discusses the importance of segmentation in marketing, stating that while it is important to understand a brand's core consumer base, it is also crucial to consider the potential of the audience and the growth of that audience. For example, if a brand is rooted in an extreme sport, and the core consumer is an extreme athlete, branching out from there to less extreme athletes who do not compete, or a consumer who is inspired by the sport can help unlock and grow the brand by connecting the core consumer to concentric circles that ripple out from the center.  Price Strategies in Marketing Price strategy is another important aspect of marketing, often set by the product team. However, when a brand is priced too low or has a multi-geographic product, it can lead to consumers seeking out the product at a higher price. This can lead to a higher potential for the brand. To address this issue, a cross-functional team from product design, merchandising, marketing, and leadership teams should conduct a full pricing study to understand the brand's potential. In ecommerce, it is essential to be cautious about discounting the product to maintain a healthy, profitable business. Ecommerce growth often drives top line sales through occasional sales, but if the product is discounted, the rest of the market will follow, making the brand less profitable and less desirable. Full price sell-through is another key metric for identifying a strong brand. This indicates that a significant percentage of the product is selling through at full price without any discounts, which is a strong indication of brand health and helps avoid market degradation. The Importance of Monitoring Metrics  Kathy emphasizes the importance of clear tracking of KPIs and simple KPIs and to collect data that can be informative. One favorite metric for brands is Google brand interest, which is an intuitive index measuring search volume for the brand. By tracking this consistently, businesses can see whether interest is increasing or decreasing, which is important for understanding brand health. Additionally, tracking global brand interest allows for a more accurate understanding of geographic differences. A regression analysis from Google suggests that increased consistent increase in Google brand interest is directly tied to increased sales for the brand. Brand engagement is also important in social channels, as high engagement indicates people are interested in the content being posted. Full price sell-through is another key indicator of a brand's success. Lastly, tracking direct-to-consumer offerings through ecommerce or retail can help determine if the customer base is growing or if there is a growing number of opt-ins to communication. By focusing on net new people, businesses can ensure their total pie of customers grows each month. Kathy mentions that the degree to which a marketing technology stack is included in a marketing plan depends on the brand's unique circumstances and the technology partner team. Strategic Partnerships in Marketing Strategic partnerships can manifest in various ways, such as collaborations with emerging designers, faster go-to-market processes, agency partners, and effective partnerships with wholesale retailers. Agency partners, if treated as an authentic member of the team, can be magical. By addressing these partnerships in a comprehensive and effective manner, brands can create unique and valuable products and experiences. Blue Moon Marketing Kathy's company focuses on three areas: private equity portfolio companies, consulting companies, and public and private companies. She assists in due diligence, diagnostic phase, and client work for private equity funds. Her company also provides additional support to consulting companies by assisting with pitches and client work. They also offer project-based support for public and private companies, focusing on business strategy, marketing strategy, segmentation, go-to-market strategy, budget analysis, and design.  Timestamps: 04:01 Business strategy and marketing plan development 08:58 Brand purpose, values, and personality for various companies 13:28 Brand segmentation and its importance in growing a brand 20:17 Pricing strategies and metrics for brand health 25:25 Tracking KPIs for brands using Google brand interest, social media engagement, full price sell through, and customer base growth 30:09 Marketing strategies and partnerships Links: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathy-hines-1194851/?originalSubdomain=uk Unleashed is produced by Umbrex, which has a mission of connecting independent management consultants with one another, creating opportunities for members to meet, build relationships, and share lessons learned.

As Alex says, the ground is shifting more and faster than it has in some time in the tech world, which usually means gaping craters are opened to swallow up media companies. We discuss the Reddit IPO, X apparently pivoting to video – we recorded this prior to Don Lemmon announcing he wouldn't be launching his show on X after an apparently disastrous interview with Elon Musk pissed off Musk, go figure – and the effort to ban TikTok.We also have a guest this week. Tony Stubblebine joined us to discuss where Medium fits in the information space. We talked to Tony about how Medium aims to be the place for expert content, why journalism is apparently expensive to produce because journalists have to learn about the stuff they cover, and the frequent misalignment of incentives in the media business, particularly ones reliant on advertising.Submit a question or comment for the show here: https://memo.fm/pva/Troy Young's People vs Algorithms newsletterBrian Morrissey's The Rebooting newsletterAlex Schleifer's Universal EntitiesFollow Alex, Brian and Troy on TwitterTopics: 00:00 Introducing the Voicemail Feature: A New Way to Engage01:44 Welcome to People vs. Algorithms: Unpacking Media and Tech Shifts02:06 Deep Dive into Reddit's IPO and the Future of Social Platforms02:44 Exploring Medium's Journey and Its Place in the Digital World04:29 Listener Engagement and the Future of Podcasting05:18 Analyzing Reddit's Strategy and Its Impact on the Digital Landscape16:17 X Pivoting to Video19:46 The Controversial Debate: The Potential TikTok Ban25:20 Apple's Strategy and the Shifting Tech Landscape32:21 Medium's New Direction Under CEO Tony Stubblebine40:44 Evaluating Medium's Pivot to Subscription and Target Author Strategy41:26 The Power of Expert Content in the Digital Age43:03 The Debate Over Text vs. Video Content44:05 The Importance of Writing in an Evolving Internet44:55 Addressing Changing Consumer Habits and Content Consumption48:56 The Future of Twitter and Social Media Platforms50:36 Exploring Federation and Content Distribution Strategies51:37 Navigating Negotiations with AI Companies55:17 The Potential and Challenges of Reddit's IPO58:13 The Role of Medium in Independent Expert Content Creation59:39 Reflecting on the State of Professional Media01:08:33 Closing Thoughts and Future Directions01:11:12 The Impact of Advertising on Business and Culture

In this episode, we sit down with David Hall, Senior Pastor of Midway Presbyterian Church in Powder Springs, GA, and a prolific author, to discuss his latest book, Irony and the Presbyterian Church in America: The First Fifty Years. Hall's work, a historical and analytical exploration of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), offers a unique perspective on the denomination's fifty-year journey since its inception in 1973. Through the lens of irony, reminiscent of Greek dramas, Hall examines the PCA's evolution within the wider context of American Presbyterianism. David Hall is the author of over 40 books, including influential titles like Savior or Servant? Putting Government in Its Place and The Legacy of John Calvin. As the Founder and Senior Fellow of the Kuyper Institute and a leading figure in the Calvin500 celebration, Hall's expertise offers a profound look into the PCA's successes, challenges, and the critical question: can it avoid the decline that other religious communions have faced?

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the idea that some kind of consciousness is present not just in our human brains but throughout the universe, right down to cells or even electrons. This is panpsychism and its proponents argue it offers a compelling alternative to those who say we are nothing but matter, like machines, and to those who say we are both matter and something else we might call soul. It is a third way. Critics argue panpsychism is implausible, an example of how not to approach this problem, yet interest has been growing widely in recent decades partly for the idea itself and partly in the broader context of understanding how consciousness arises.WithTim Crane Professor of Philosophy and Pro-Rector at the Central European University Director of Research, FWF Cluster of Excellence, Knowledge in CrisisJoanna Leidenhag, Associate Professor in Theology and Philosophy at the University of LeedsAnd Philip Goff Professor of Philosophy at Durham UniversityProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Anthony Freeman (ed.), Consciousness and Its Place in Nature: Does Physicalism Entail Panpsychism?

“In the end, no place was truly safe.”Zombies Are On the March in Peninsula!It's no surprise that the studio and filmmakers wanted to return to the Train to Busan well after its initial success. And crafting a sequel that's less an immediate sequel but more of a story in the same universe taking place four years after the original sounded intriguing. But a bigger budget and expanded scope doesn't always mean better. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we wrap up our Train to Busan series with a conversation about Yeon Sang-ho's 2020 film Peninsula.Here's a hint at what we talk about.The film starts with a great premise. We're following two survivors, now living in Hong Kong four years after South Korea was taken over by zombies, as they're recruited by criminals to return to the country and find a truck full of money. Once they get there, however, things start shifting in ways that bring the story down. The plot contains many elements that are there simply for convenience. Even their own zombie rules, established in the last film and (mostly) adhered to, seem to be used as needed. With all of that, it seems like things aren't great but passable for a genre zombie film.Unfortunately, it goes downhill from there. We're introduced to some young daughters who drive like Dominic Toretto in sequences that are on par with video game action. We get the rogue militia catching survivors and running their own zombie survival games. The characters in the first film were archetypes, but largely felt human. Here, they feel like poorly written and performed video game characters. We do have a few that stand out and pique our interest. Our protagonist, for one, is easy to enjoy and watch go through this story. The political leader of the militia makes for an interesting psychological study, along with his sidekick. Even the mom who survived the attacks and made it this far with her daughters and father makes for an interesting story.Unfortunately, they're all saddled with a sloppy story and weak effects that just makes the whole thing a struggle. Still, it's awfully fun to talk about. We have a great time talking about it, so check it out then tune in.

Every T1D parent feels the compulsion to tightly control the food, the doses, and every aspect of diabetes management for their child. We have to realize that the goals should be to normalize T1D as much as possible, keep the numbers in the “good enough” range, and keep a good relationship with the child. We are NEVER going to achieve perfection, and we can't expect perfection from our kids in T1D management. Sometimes the best thing we can do is to loosen the pressure we put on our T1D kid and keep the communication lines open. Join us to hear the conversation between Paige and JoAnne. Show Highlights:Guest: Paige, the mother of an 11-year-old son who was diagnosed at age 8Since he was diagnosed just a few months before the pandemic occurred, management became routine as the family was together all the time.As of January 2022, Paige's son is back in school but struggling to independently manage his T1D throughout the school day.How her son has recently cut back on logging his food intake precisely, which has brought more chaos into the situationHow his “guesses” at dosing are leading to rollercoaster moments and scary highs and lowsPaige's Question: “Is this ‘rage dosing' just a phase of his management? Will he at some point go back to logging his food correctly? How do we handle this loss of control when he's dosing himself or when we leave him with other people?”JoAnne's Answer: “I feel like you had a double-edged sword with the pandemic, with the upside being the ease in taking care of him all the time because he was at home. The downside is that you became used to keeping a flatline of his blood sugar numbers all the time, which is not realistic, especially for children. I think you need to loosen some of your idea of what he should be doing in T1D management because that probably feels like a noose to him. With the lived experience you've shared about your T1D family history, that ramps up your anxiety about T1D management and the worst scenario outcomes. What I know is that you want your child to have a positive relationship with diabetes, as much as possible. We want him to embrace the care of T1D while hating the T1D; the more rigid it becomes, the harder it is to embrace the care. You'll have to figure out where you can let go so that his life can be as normal as possible. I feel like a visit to family camp will be really, really helpful for you. The question is how you can keep your relationship with him strong enough as he goes through the upcoming teen years so you have a positive connection into which diabetes is woven. Where you are now is not the total story, so you need to figure out how you can quiet your own nervous system around diabetes so you can allow some normalcy into your son's life. You can be the superstar diabetes manager, but at what cost? Your relationship with your son should be at the forefront. My Put Diabetes in Its Place might be helpful for you because it teaches you to identify a place where you can be more flexible and work from there. This is a marathon and not a sprint. At this point, you need to aim for ‘good enough'. You have to take a breath and realize that the end of the world is not coming when he is out of range with his numbers sometimes. My Self-Care Kit might be helpful in helping you turn down the volume on your dysregulation when his numbers are high. I would ask your endocrinologist about using a mini-gluc dose to help him come up from a low; some doctors will support that use. You can work with your endo team and adjust the doses to cover those pre-bedtime snacks he wants without them keeping you up all night. My free webinar (coming on December 14), Let Them Eat Cake? will benefit you.” Resources:Visit my website for available resources:

Having a newly diagnosed T1D child sends parents on a new and unexpected journey. Today's question is from a mom who is struggling with all the pieces of the T1D journey with her preteen daughter. As is expected, her daughter wants to be private about her diabetes because she wants to fit in with her peers, and she just wants life to be about other things besides T1D. This shows up in anger and frustration with what is now required of her in diabetes management. Join us for the conversation.Show Highlights:Guest: Amy's daughter, Katie (12), was diagnosed with T1D just two months ago in September, and she's being homeschooled now for 6th grade. How Amy's family has felt flooded and emotionally overwhelmed with this diagnosis and all the pieces to the T1D puzzleHow Katie is super private and embarrassed about T1D and refuses to let anyone else be around when she has an injectionAmy's Question: “I want to ask about the grief piece that seems to be lingering and unending. It sometimes shows up in Katie as anger, especially in the mornings as we have transitioned to homeschool until she's ready to get back into school, so I need strategies for managing those emotions in the moment. I also need to know how to handle the fact that she doesn't want anyone to know that she has T1D.”JoAnne's Answer: “I think it's important to normalize her life as much as possible, and a big piece of that is having her return to school instead of being homeschooled. She needs to know that her life can be normal and stay on track even though the T1D diagnosis has derailed you for a time. The most important aspect is to figure out how you both will live normal lives while managing T1D. By having her at home, you are communicating to her that “this” is too much and too big. Look to partner with the school nurse and teachers to make sure they know what she needs. You have to find the line between what Katie wants and what the reality is. You may have to push her to get her on board with doing what she needs to regarding dosing at school, and get her to understand that her T1D cannot be private from the adults who care for her at school. We, as parents, have to be practical about the suffering our T1D kids are enduring because they have to learn to tolerate it. They don't have a choice about the pain of injections, but their lives can remain intact. It might be helpful to find a T1D mentor for her from the local high school, and it's not something you give her a choice about– because she doesn't know what she needs.”Resources:Mentioned in this episode: Anxious Kids, Anxious Parents by Reid WilsonVisit my website for available resources: www.diabetessweettalk.com*Visit my website to get my Self-Care Kit to bring more ease and balance into your diabetes management routine!

Today's question comes from a mom who sees her son go into full-meltdown mode at pump change time, but this behavior differs, depending on who is observing him. As with any outward behavior, the internal emotions behind it are the key. Join us as we discuss how this mom can be supportive and allow his independence while giving her son the space to express his frustration with T1D. Show Highlights:Guest: Terezinha lives in Ontario, Canada. Her 11-year-old son, Theo, was diagnosed in 2021.How healthcare in Ontario provides a pump for diabetes care one year after diagnosisHow both Terezinha and Theo notice that T1D life is much easier with a pump, with sleeping, keeping numbers in range, etc.How Theo wants to be in control and put his pump in himself but has problems and pain which spiral into a meltdown of anger, name-calling, and frustrationHow Terezinha has noticed that if any friends or family members are around at pump change (other than his parents), he gets it in on the first try with no meltdownTerezinha's Question: “What can we do to improve this situation around Theo's pump changes?”JoAnne's Answer: “With all of our kids, there will always be an edge where they push the limits of what they are capable of doing. It sounds like he's telling you that he CAN do this when he is out in the world, but at home, his message to you is that this is profoundly hard for him. I would wonder what the difference is on the inside for him when someone else is around, and why it is easier then. Your eye should be on helping him tap into whatever that capacity is that allows a “normal” pump change. Before the next pump change, choose a mellow moment to ask him about these internal differences in the situation. Talk with him about what you can both do to make the next time easier. I think it's important not to have the conversation in a pump change moment because you won't get clear answers. Talk about it regularly when things are calm and start the conversation about the difference when he CAN and CAN'T do the pump change. Be careful about saying things that ramp up his shame, and maybe you need to leave him alone to handle pump change a little more often. You want to be there for him, but that creates a dysregulated space for both of you. Let him know that you are stepping away to de-escalate the situation to take a break because you are dysregulated. That's a good thing to model for him so he knows it's OK to step away and take a break. Make space at other times for his distress and give him permission to talk about diabetes, his frustration, and how difficult it is.”Resources:Visit my website for available resources: www.diabetessweettalk.com For help with the emotional and parenting challenges of facing T1D management, join one of our live recording sessions by clicking the banner at the top of the homepage.For a more hopeful future for you and your T1D child, consider the After Diagnosis coaching course at www.diabetessweettalk.com/courses.

Every T1D parent faces fear in relinquishing control to teachers and caregivers as their child grows up, and those fears are magnified further if your child is very young. How to properly educate teachers in T1D care is something every one of us encounters. Today's question is from a mom with a young son just beginning his schooling in preschool, and thankfully, he has supportive and attentive caregivers who are partnering in his T1D care, but questions remain. Join us to hear the conversation.Show Highlights:Guest #1: Julie, a mom of three kids (ages 4, 6, and 8), has a four-year-old who was diagnosed with T1D at only 15 months.Julie's son just entered preschool, which means she's having to train his teachers for the first time and allow others to handle his care.Julie's Question: “How do I not feel bad about having to hand over part of his care to other people when there is so much involved in the situational timing of his dosing needs?”JoAnne's Answer: “Your concerns are not unusual. This issue comes up in many situations, like school and playdates. It's great that you have a supportive team of people who are willing to learn and help, and I understand the internal feelings of not wanting to burden others. I think it's important to build a strong relationship with the person or people who are managing his T1D care when he's away from you. Be super kind and generous with the teacher's assistant when she makes mistakes, but understand that you aren't being ‘too much' in what you are asking. You can kindly advocate for your son without feeling guilty about it, and you will have to take the time to communicate clearly with her about his care. In this, you are modeling for your son that it is OK to ask for what he needs in his T1D care, and that is important for him to see and learn. The second part of this is about all the nuances and situations of his care. Our job as parents is to help his teacher learn and to make T1D care manageable for her with room to grow. Whatever is needed to keep him safe is the guideline, and you can add more nuance to it as she grows in her knowledge. Begin by setting clear guidelines about his dosing, and you can adjust those later.”Resources:Visit my website for available resources: www.diabetessweettalk.com For help with the emotional and parenting challenges of facing T1D management, join one of our live recording sessions by clicking the banner at the top of the homepage.For a more hopeful future for you and your T1D child, consider the After Diagnosis coaching course at www.diabetessweettalk.com/courses.

When Kate was growing up, her grandfather often told her that when he was serving on a Navy ship during WWII, there were two things he and his fellow sailors never talked about: religion and politics.In the present age, we're apt to think that leaving politics off the table like that is inauthentic, or worse, a sign of being an insufficiently engaged citizen. We're apt to think that the more we do politics, the better the health of our politics.My guest would say that the opposite is true. His name is Robert Talisse, and he's a professor of political philosophy and the author of Overdoing Democracy: Why We Must Put Politics in Its Place. Today on the show, Bob and I discuss how democracy isn't just a system of government but a moral ideal; how the fact that it's an ideal gives it a tendency to extend its reach; and how the particular circumstances of modern times have extended that reach into all of our lifestyle choices, from the car we drive to where we shop. But, Bob argues, there can be too much of a good thing. He says the way politics has saturated everything in our lives creates some negative effects, turning politics into something that parties can market like toothpaste, and making each individual's views more extreme, so that we ultimately get to the point that we can't see our political opponents as people who have an equal say in our democracy. The solution, Bob says, is not to build bridges of dialogue with our political opponents, as is so often advised, but to engage with people in spaces, places, and activities where doing politics isn't the point, and you don't even know the political views of the people with whom you interact.Connect With Robert TalisseRobert's faculty pageListen to the Podcast!

Today I'm joined by Katie Roseborough, host of the Sugar Mama's podcast. I've visited with Katie on her show, and she's returning the favor by joining me today with a question about her T1D kid. Join us to hear the conversation!Show Highlights:Guest #1: Katie, mother of three, has a daughter (her middle child) with T1D.Her daughter is 10 years old and was diagnosed about two years ago. She is fairly compliant with her diabetes management IF Katie tells her what to do; if her mom isn't around, it's a different story. Katie's First Question: “How do I get to the heart of the issue to encourage her to be more mindful of what she needs to do even if she isn't with me?”JoAnne's Answer: “I'm hearing that your system mostly works, but there are a few holes. I think future worry is the issue as you wonder if this is ever going to change. It sounds like she isn't quite ready to take this on, and she's happy to let the adults hold this responsibility for her. Try to separate out the future piece and look at the now. Validate that it makes sense that she doesn't want to pick this up and monitor everything she eats. Let her know that you both need to figure out together what the next steps will be. It will take a while, and you will have this conversation over and over before things change. When she does take ownership, set off the fireworks of praise for her in getting older, maturing, and taking on responsibility for these hard, extra things. You may need to back off about the dosing and make it about a strategy. Ask her what you can do to help her remember, and try different strategies to see what might work. She will eventually get it because you are helping her be aware. The data is clear that into their early 20s, our kids struggle to hold onto all the things in their T1D care. You'll probably see a developmental shift as she is more able to remember and more willing to pick it up, and she will still forget.” Katie's Second Question: “In the future, when she's away from home more and more, what do you recommend we do to help her remember to monitor snacks and dose correctly?”JoAnne's Answer: “We have a lot of technology today that allows you to keep a check on her. If she goes for sleepovers and camps, you can still see what's happening, and she will get more autonomy and privacy as she shows you her capacity to handle tasks. You can help her plan for supplies as she is away from home, and it's a great learning opportunity for when she goes to college. Remember that it's always easier to let go of control than to regain control. Begin by keeping more control for sleepovers, and as she gains more independence, you can gradually release some control.”Resources:Connect with Katie: Sugar Mama's podcastVisit my website for available resources: www.diabetessweettalk.com For help with the emotional and parenting challenges of facing T1D management, join one of our live recording sessions by clicking the banner at the top of the homepage.For a more hopeful future for you and your T1D child, consider the After Diagnosis coaching course at www.diabetessweettalk.com/courses.

Life can be tricky with a newly-diagnosed T1D teenager. Some of them are happy to share and be open about diabetes, and some want to keep it hidden and to themselves. The point is that each of them has the right to decide if, and how, their peers will learn about their T1D. Today's questions are from the mother of a teenager who has very strong feelings on the matter. Join us to learn more!Show Highlights:Guest #1: Sarah's son (16) was diagnosed a little over a year ago “out of the blue” at a routine doctor visit.Sarah's son is doing well in managing his diabetes and is very responsible in his care.Sarah's First Question: “Why is it more difficult for him to accept the permanence of his situation with T1D, and why does he not want anyone to know?”JoAnne's Answer: “There is no right answer to your question. No 16-year-old can understand what life is like with diabetes unless they are experiencing it. There is an issue around his safety when you aren't around, and it's totally OK and normal that you have sadness at what he's going through. There is a normal process of mourning for all of your family, but I like to start with strong validation around the permanence of T1D. Tap into his experience and name it back to him to help him feel seen; this will help him feel calmer about it. If you sign up for my newsletter, you can find information about my Validation Webinar, which might be helpful for you.”Sarah's Second Question: “How does a 16-year-old reach the level of vulnerability required to announce to his friends that he has T1D?”JoAnne's Answer: “I understand that you want everyone around him to be aware of his needs because of your safety concerns and fears that the worst may happen. Every T1D parent has those fears, but the likelihood of those worst-case scenarios happening is very small. Part of this issue is about emotional safety. When he goes to college, he will need to let others know about T1D, and he'll need to advocate for himself. It's OK that he doesn't want to share with others now because he feels very different from others at this point. I would encourage you to find a diabetes camp where he can meet other kids like him and not feel ashamed; you can even find one away from home where he isn't in his normal peer group. Another idea is that he could become a babysitter for a younger T1D kid and become a mentor and hero to that child. This could create a sense of community and inclusion for him, letting him know that he's not alone with T1D.”Resources:Visit my website for available resources: www.diabetessweettalk.com For help with the emotional and parenting challenges of facing T1D management, join one of our live recording sessions by clicking the banner at the top of the homepage.For a more hopeful future for you and your T1D child, consider the After Diagnosis coaching course at www.diabetessweettalk.com/courses.

Welcome to another episode of the podcast! Parents of T1D kids have so many unique experiences that most people don't understand. By finding community and support, we learn that we are not alone, and we have hope through the difficult times. Today's questions revolve around helping our T1D kids learn the skills they need to be independent. We will talk about age-appropriate responsibilities and how to scaffold tasks to help them prepare for being out on their own someday. Join us to learn more!Show Highlights:Guest #1: Lupita is the mother of Nash (9–almost 10), who was diagnosed four years ago.Nash is monitored 24/7 with Dexcom, which means Lupita is on watch 24/7.Nash has seen several different doctors and is being asked to be more independent than Lupita thinks is suitable for his young age.Lupita feels bad that Nash is nowhere near ready to do what the doctors expect him to do in his care; she feels like she is failing as a parent.Lupita's Question: “Is there an age when a child should be independent in their diabetes management? How do I approach this with his doctors without sounding rude?”JoAnne's Answer: “I would agree with you that he is very young to take on all responsibilities for his diabetes management. I've noticed that kids who are diagnosed younger are used to mom taking care of everything for longer, and kids who are diagnosed later, like at age 9, want to do more themselves.There is a transition period in which it's important for you to scaffold his independence around his diabetes management. You will have to learn to tolerate his missteps as he transitions to doing things himself, which typically happens in the mid-teen years. Listen to your instincts about what he needs, and I think it's fine for you to wait a little longer to make the transition. Your message to Nash needs to be that you are here to help and care for him now and that you will help him become an adult by learning to function on his own. Clear the air with the doctors and ask for their help in getting him to his own management when the time is right instead of beating you up about it. Ask them for help in taking the first baby steps.” Guest #2: Nikola, the mother of Olivia (17)Olivia has a continuous glucose monitor and a pump and is doing wel–overalll.Nikola's question: “How do I get her to be more responsible with her supplies and pick up her trash/needles from all over the house?”JoAnne's answer: “You may have to remind her to pick her things up and dispose of them, but be gentle. It's like any other household task with dishes, etc., and it's not diabetes-specific behavior. In terms of her losing her things, I don't have a magical solution. It is something that she will struggle to figure out, and she will have to do better when she is on her own. There is only so much that we, as parents, can do to help them and scaffold for them. Different kids have different executive functioning skills, and it's just something she will have to figure out.”Resources:Visit my website for available resources: www.diabetessweettalk.com For help with the emotional and parenting challenges of facing T1D management, join one of our live recording sessions by clicking the banner at the top of the homepage.For a more hopeful future for you and your T1D child, consider the After Diagnosis coaching course at www.diabetessweettalk.com/courses.

Welcome to the podcast! Parents of T1D kids have so many unique experiences that most people don't understand. By finding community and support, we learn that we are not alone, and we have hope through the difficult times. Today's show tackles questions about helping teenagers become more independent, not letting “diabetes talk” take over the parent/child relationship, and how to combat diabetes burnout and depression. Join us to learn more!Show Highlights:Guest #1: Angela is the mother of Jake,15; he was diagnosed at age 12. Jake is trying to be more independent with his management, but it's been a big struggle to have him remember to check his blood sugar and take his insulin appropriately.How Angela feels like their relationship is focused solely on diabetes management, and she wants it to be differentAngela's question: “How much do I let him do, and how do I balance our relationship beyond diabetes talk?”JoAnne's answer: “I would vote for the relationship to be the primary focus right now. Jake is at the age where higher A1Cs are normal, and it's very difficult to hit the A1C target. Being empathetic toward him about what he's going through is important, as well as keeping your relationship strong with him. I'm not saying to let go of safety concerns, but talk to him and name what has happened in the relationship. Let him know that you would like to ‘talk at him' less about diabetes. Find a way with him to hand over control to him and let him know that you trust him on this important issue, but let him know that he deserves support. Take it one step at a time, and praise him along the way for whatever he is doing right.”Guest #2: Anna is the mother of Charlie, age 5; he was diagnosed in November 2021.Still in the “honeymoon phase” after diagnosis, Charlie takes ½ unit of long-acting insulin; he does not feel his highs and lows.His parents rely 100% on technology to gauge his highs and lows, and his normal personality tends to be irritable and difficult.Why Anna feels caregiver burnout and mourns the ease of their old lifeAnna's question: “How do I combat the depression of being his caregiver and pancreas 24/7? Do you have tips and strategies to get out of the ‘diabetes depression' that we are dealing with?”JoAnne's answer: “I think your experience is normal. Community is very powerful and grounding, and I'm a big proponent of family camp because it's good for everyone in the family. Find ways to get community support into your daily life at home; diabetes is too much of a burden for one parent to carry alone. Charlie needs to learn that there is a big network of people who can help him and you. Do your best to normalize your experience; most of it is just the swing and sway of the first year with diabetes.” Resources:Visit my website for available resources: www.diabetessweettalk.com For help with the emotional and parenting challenges of facing T1D management, join one of our live recording sessions by clicking the banner at the top of the homepage.For a more hopeful future for you and your T1D child, consider the After Diagnosis coaching course at www.diabetessweettalk.com/courses.

Welcome to Episode 2! I'm back with more questions and answers about how to “parent” diabetes. Living with T1D kids is a journey of unpredictability, but you are not alone. Unfortunately, not everyone is compassionate and understanding about parenting struggles with T1D, and today's conversation is about how adult friendships can be packed with envy, comparisons, and reactivity. Join us for a closer look!Show Highlights:Today's guest: Carla, the mother of a T1D daughter who is 4½ years old and was diagnosed just over two years agoHow a recent confrontational interaction with a close friend about her daughter's diabetes left her feeling unseen, unheard, and frustrated–and that the friendship has endedCarla's question: “Is this something that I should be aware of in future friendships–that diabetes will come between my adult friends and me? Is this always going to be an issue? How should I think about this in the future?”JoAnne's answer: “It's not surprising that other adults don't understand how difficult your journey is with diabetes. Unless someone lives this experience, they can't know what it is like. In my experience, it IS rare to have friends who really see me, know me, and understand me. It would be terrible for you to expect all friendships to be like this, but you will certainly run into people who have a weird reactivity to your situation. The friendship issues are reactivity and repair, and the overall problem for this friend may not necessarily be diabetes-related. You have a clear picture now of what the limitations are in this friendship. With what you've shared about the relationship with this person, there are definitely some problems with envy and feeling ‘less than' on her part. The good news is that there are people out there who are attentive and caring and don't need to engage from a reactive place.”Resources:Visit my website for available resources: www.diabetessweettalk.com For help with the emotional and parenting challenges of facing T1D management, register for a live recording session by clicking the banner at the top of the homepage.For a more hopeful future for you and your T1D child, consider the After Diagnosis coaching course at www.diabetessweettalk.com/courses.

Last year, the Journal of Social Computing published a https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.01351 (Special Issue) on the subject of Technology Ethics in Action. The special issue was the product of the Ethical Tech Working Group at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard, which was cofounded by Mary Gray and Kathy Pham. The ideas in the special issue span a range of critical and interdisciplinary perspectives, with essay titles ranging from “Creating Technology Worthy of the Human Spirit” to “Connecting Race to Ethics Related to Technology” to “The Promise and Limits of Lawfulness: Inequality, Law, and the Techlash.”  To learn more about the ideas in it, I spoke to its editor, Ben Green. Ben is a postdoctoral scholar in the Michigan Society of Fellows and an assistant professor at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. His Harvard PhD is in applied mathematics, with a secondary field in science, technology, and society. He studies the social and political impacts of government algorithms, focusing on algorithmic fairness, smart cities, and the criminal justice system. In 2019 MIT Press published his book, The Smart Enough City: Putting Technology in Its Place to Reclaim Our Urban Future. Ben is also an affiliate at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard.

Hank Hanegraaff, president of the Christian Research Institute and host of the Bible Answer Man broadcast, comments on sensationalistic end-time scenarios occasioned by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Let Ezekiel mention the word rosh, and the imaginations of end-time sensationalists go wild. The Hebrew word rosh sounds enough like “Russia” to implicate Russia as the villain in sensationalistic end-time scenarios. However, as documented by credible historians and linguists, the word “Russia” is an eleventh century Viking word and as such should not be semantically linked to the Hebrew word rosh. Moreover, if we fail to understand the history communicated in Scripture, we can come up with all kinds of sensationalistic scenarios. Take Pat Robertson ranting recently about Putin's invasion of Ukraine, citing Ezekiel. The problem is Robertson's failure to understand the historical context of Ezekiel's prophecies, which have nothing to do with current events in Ukraine. The historical principle of biblical interpretation keeps one from supposing—as do modern day prophecy pundits—that Ezekiel longed for a third or fourth temple when the second had not yet arisen from the ashes of the first. For Pat Robertson's statements, see Steve Warren, “‘God Is Getting Ready to Do Something Amazing': CBN Founder Pat Robertson on Russia and Its Place in Prophecy,” CBN News, February 28, 2022, https://www1.cbn.com/cbnnews/2022/february/god-is-getting-ready-to-do-something-amazing-founder-pat-robertson-on-russia-and-its-place-in-prophecy.
