One of the most legendary couples on the New Zealand theatre scene, Jennifer Ward-Lealand and Michael Hurst have acting resumes that range from pimps, to politicians, to animated versions of Buzzy Bee. They've been in countless productions together, but it had never been just the two of them on stage until their most recent stage work - In Other Words. In the show, the two play a married couple dealing with the onset of Alzheimer's, and it had a sold out run in Auckland last year. This year, Ward-Lealand and Hurst are taking the show across the nation, which Ward-Lealand told Jack Tame they're thrilled to be doing. “It would be rare to find a New Zealander who hasn't had some connection in some way to some, either member of their Whanau or friends, or friends of friends who've experienced dementia,” she said. Despite the serious topic, Hurst says the play isn't particularly heavy. “It certainly confronts it, but it's levity and uplifting and the human condition, and caring, and all of those things – and music. So all of those things which are part of the dealing of it.” Although there is levity in the play, Ward-Lealand and Hurst have taken care to represent the symptoms and reality of Alzheimer's, which they say has been well received by audiences. “The feedback that we've had from people has been really, really humbling,” Ward-Lealand said.

Dr. Karisma Morton, Understanding and Supporting Math Identity   ROUNDING UP: SEASON 3 | EPISODE 11 In this episode, we will explore the connection between identity and mathematics learning. We'll examine the factors that may have shaped our own identities and those of our students. We'll also discuss ways to practice affirming students' identities in mathematics instruction. BIOGRAPHIES Dr. Karisma Morton is an assistant professor of mathematics education at the University of North Texas. Her research explores elementary preservice teachers' ability to teach mathematics in equitable ways, particularly through the development of their critical racial consciousness. Findings from her research have been published in the Journal for Research in Mathematics Education and Educational Researcher. ​ RESOURCES The Impact of Identity in K–8 Mathematics: Rethinking Equity-Based Practices by Julia Aguirre, Karen Mayfield-Ingram, and Danny Martin Rough Draft Math: Revising to Learn by Amanda Jansen Olga Torres' “Rights of the Learner” framework Cultivating Mathematical Hearts: Culturally Responsive Mathematics Teaching in Elementary Classrooms by Maria del Rosario Zavala and Julia Maria Aguirre TRANSCRIPT Mike Wallus: If someone asked you if you were good at math, what would you say, and what justification would you provide for your answer? Regardless of whether you said yes or no, there are some big assumptions baked into this question. In this episode, we're talking with Dr. Karisma Morton about the ways the mathematics identities we formed in childhood impact our instructional practices as adults and how we can support students' mathematical identity formation in the here and now.  Welcome to the podcast, Karisma. I am really excited to be talking with you about affirming our students' mathematics identities. Karisma: Oh, I am really, really excited to be here, Mike. Thank you so much for the invitation to come speak to your audience about this. Mike: As we were preparing for this podcast, one of the things that you mentioned was the need to move away from this idea that there are math people and nonmath people. While it may seem obvious to some folks, I'm wondering if you can talk about why is this such an important thing and what type of stance educators might adopt in its place? Karisma: So, the thing is, there is no such thing as a math person, right? We are all math people. And so, if we want to move away from this idea, it means moving away from the belief that people are inherently good or bad at math. The truth is, we all engage in mathematical activity every single day, whether we realize it or not. We are all mathematicians. And so, the key is, as math teachers, we want to remove that barrier in our classrooms that says that only some students are math capable.  In the math classroom, we can begin doing that by leveraging what students know mathematically, how they experience mathematics in their daily life. And then we as educators can then incorporate some of those types of activities into the everyday learning of math in our classrooms. So, the idea is to get students to realize they are capable math doers, that they are math people. And you're showing them the evidence that they are by bringing in what they're already doing. And not just that they are math doers, but that those peers that are also engaged in the classroom with them are capable math doers. And so, breaking down those barriers that say that some students are and some students aren't is really key. So, we are all math people. Mike: I love that sentiment. You know, I've seen you facilitate an activity with educators that I'm hoping that we could replicate on the podcast. You asked educators to sort themselves into one of four groups that best describe their experience when they were a learner of mathematics. And I'm wondering if you could read the categories aloud and then I'm going to ask our listeners to think about the description that best describes their own experiences. Karisma: OK, great. So, there are four groups. And so, if you believe that your experience is one where you dreaded math and you had an overall bad experience with it, then you would choose group 1. If you believe that math was difficult but you could solve problems with tutoring or help, then you would select group 2. If you found that math was easy because you were able to memorize and follow procedures but you had to practice a lot, then you'd be in group 3. And finally, if you had very few difficulties with math or you were kind of considered a math whiz, then you would select group 4. Mike: I had such a strong reaction when I participated in this activity for the first time. So, I have had my own reckoning with this experience, but I wonder what impact you've seen this have on educators. Why do it? What's the impact that you hope it has for someone who's participating? Karisma: Yeah. So, I would say that a key part of promoting that message that we started off talking about is for teachers to go back, to reflect. We have to have that experience of thinking about what it was like for us as math learners. Because oftentimes we go into the classroom and we're like, “All right, I got to do this thing.” But we don't take a minute to reflect: “What was it like for me as a math learner?” And I wanted to first also say that I did not develop this activity. This is not a Karisma original. I did see this presented at a math teacher-educator conference about five years ago by Jennifer Ward. I think she's at Kennesaw State [University] right now. But the premise is the same: We want to give teachers an opportunity to reflect over their own experiences as math learners as a good starting place for helping them to identify with each other and also with the students that they're teaching. And so, whenever I have this activity done, I have each of the participants reflect. And then they have conversations around why they chose what they chose. And this is the opportunity for them to have what we call “windows,” “mirrors,” and “sliding glass doors,” right? So, you either can see yourself in another person's experience and feel like, “Oh, I'm not alone here,” especially if it were a negative experience. Or you may get to see or take a glimpse into what someone else has experienced that was very different from your own and really get a chance to understand what it was like for them. They may have been the math whiz, and you're looking at them like they're an alien that fell from the sky because you're like, “How did that happen,” right? But you can begin to have those kinds of conversations: “Why was it like this for you?” and “It wasn't like that for me.” Or “It was the same for me, but what did it look like in your instance versus my instance?”  I honestly feel like sometimes people don't realize that their experience is not necessarily unique, especially if it's coming from a math trauma perspective. Some people don't want to talk about their experience because they feel like it was just theirs. But they sometimes can begin to realize that, “Hey, you had that experience too, and let's kind of break down what that means.” Do you want to be that type of teacher? Do you want to create the type of environment where you felt like you weren't a capable math doer? So powerful, powerful exercise. I encourage your listeners to try it with a group of friends or colleagues at work and really have that conversation. Mike: Gosh, I'm just processing this. One of the things that I keep going back to is you challenging us to discard the idea that some people are inherently good at math and other people are not. And I'm making a connection that if I'm a person who identified with group 1, where I dreaded math and it was really a rough experience, what does it mean for me to discard the idea that some people are inherently good or inherently not good at math versus if I identified as a person who was treated as the math whiz and it came easy for me, again, what's required for me?  It feels like there's things that we can agree with on the surface. We can agree that people are not good inherently at mathematics. But I find myself really thinking about how my own experience actually colors my beliefs and my actions, how agreeing to that on the surface and then really digging into how your own experience plays out in your practice or the ways that you interact with kids. There's some work to be done there, it seems like. Karisma: Absolutely. You hit the nail on the head there. It's important to do that work. It's really important for us to take that moment to reflect and think about how our own experience may be impacting how we're teaching mathematics to children. Mike: I think that's a great place to make a shift and talk about areas where teachers could take action to cultivate a positive mathematics identity for kids. I wonder if we can begin by talking about expectations and norms when it comes to problem solving. Karisma: Yes. So, Julia Aguirre, Karen Mayfield-Ingram, and Danny Martin wrote this amazing book, called The Impact of Identity in K–8 Mathematics: Rethinking Equity-Based Practices. And one of those equity-based practices is affirming math learners' identities. And so, one of the ways we can do this in the math classroom is when having students engaged in problem solving. And so, one of the things that we want to be thinking about when we are having students engaged in math problem solving is we want to be promoting students' persistence and reasoning during problem solving. And you might wonder, “Well, what does that actually look like?”  Well, it might be helpful to see what it doesn't look like, right? So, in the typical math classroom, we often see an emphasis on speed: who got it done quickly, who got it done first, who even got it done within the time allotted. And then also this idea of competition. So, that is really hard for kids because we all need time to process and think through our problem-solving strategies. And if we're putting value on speed, and we're putting value on competition, are we in fact putting value on a problem-solving strategy or the process of problem-solving? So, one way to affirm math learners' identities is to move away from this idea of speed and competition and foster the type of environment where we're valuing students' persistence with the problem. We're valuing students' processes in solving a problem, how they're reasoning, how they're justifying their steps or their solutions' strategies, as opposed to who's getting done quickly.  Another thing to be thinking about is reframing making mistakes. There's so many great resources about this. What comes to mind immediately is Rough Draft Math by Amanda Jansen, which is really helping us to reframe the idea that we can make some mistakes, and we can revise our thinking. We can revise our reasoning, and that's perfectly OK.  Olga Torres' “Rights of the Learner” framework talks a lot about the right to make a mistake is one of the four rights of the learner in the mathematics classroom. And so, when having kids engaged in problem-solving and mathematics, mistakes should be seen more like what Olga Torres calls “celebrations,” because there are opportunities for learning to occur. We can focus on this mistake and think about and problem-solve through the mistake. “Well, how did we get here?” Use it as a moment that all students can benefit from. And so, kids then become less afraid to make mistakes because they're not ridiculed or made to feel less than because they've done so. Instead, it empowers them to know that “Hey, I made this mistake, but in actuality, this is going to help me learn. And it's also going to help my classmates.” Mike: I suspect a lot of those moments, people really appreciate when there's the “aha!” or the “oh!” What was happening before that might've been some struggle or some misconceptions or a mistake. You're making me think that we kind of have to leave space for those mistakes or those misconceptions to emerge if we really want to have those “aha!”s or those “oh!”s in our classroom. Karisma: That's exactly right. And imagine if you are the one who's like, “Oh!”—what that does for your self-confidence. And even having your peers recognize that you've come to this answer or this understanding. It almost becomes like a collective win if you have fostered a type of environment where it's less about me against you and more about all of us learning together. Mike: The other thing that came to me is that I'm thinking back to the four groups. I would've identified as a person who would fit into group 2, meaning that there were definitely points where math was difficult for me, but I could figure it out with tutoring or with help from a teacher. I start to wonder now how much of my perception was about the fact that it just took me a little bit longer to process and think about it. So, it wasn't that math was difficult. It was that I was measuring my sense of myself in mathematics around whether I was the first person, or I was fast, or I got it right away, or I got it right the first time, as opposed to really thinking about, “Do I understand this?” And to me, that really feels connected to what you're saying, which is the way that we as teachers value students' actions, their rough-draft attempts, their mistakes, and position those as part of the process—that can have a really concrete impact on how I think about myself and also how I think about what it is to do math.  Well, let's shift again and talk about another area where educators could support positive identity. I'm thinking about the ways that they can engage with students' background knowledge and their life experiences. Karisma: Hmm, yeah. This is a huge one. And this really, again, comes back to recognizing that our students are whole human beings. They have experiences that we should want to leverage in the math classroom, that they don't need to keep certain parts of themselves at the door when they come in. And so, how do we take advantage of what our students are bringing to the table? And so, we want to be thinking a lot about, “Well, who is the student?” “What do they know?” “What other identities do they hold?” “What's important to them?” “What kinds of experiences do they have in their everyday life that I can bring into the math classroom?” “What are their strengths?” “What do they enjoy doing?” The truth of the matter is really great teachers do this all the time, you know? You know who your students are for the most part, right? And students come to us with a whole host of experiences that we want to leverage and come with all sorts of experiences that we could use in the math classroom. I think oftentimes we don't think about making connections between those things and how to connect them to the mathematics that's happening in the classroom. So, oftentimes we don't necessarily see a reason to connect what we know about our students to mathematics. And so, it's really just a simple extra step because really amazing teachers—which I know they're amazing teachers that are listening right now—you know who your students are. So how do we take what we know about them and bring that into the mathematics learning? Again, as with problem solving, what is it that we want to stay away from? We want to be staying away from connecting math identity only with correct answers and how fast a kid is at solving a problem. Their math identity shouldn't be dependent on how many items they got correct on an assessment. It should be more about, “Well, what is it that they know? And how are we able to use this in the math classroom?” Mike: You're making me think about how oftentimes there's this distinction that happens in people's minds between school math and math that happens everywhere in the real world. Part of what I hear you suggesting is that when you help kids connect to their real world, you're actually doing them another service and that you're helping them see, like, “Oh, these lived experiences that I might not have called mathematics, they are,” right? “I do mathematics. I'm a doer.” And part of our work in bringing that in is helping them see what's already there. Karisma: I love that. Helping them see what's already there. That's exactly right. Mike: Well, before we go, I'm wondering if you could talk about some of the resources that have informed your thinking about this and that you think might also help a person who's listening who wants to keep learning. Karisma: Yeah. There's a lot of great resources out there. The one that I rely on heavily is The Impact of Identity in K–8 Mathematics: Rethinking Equity-Based Practices. I really like this book because it's very accessible. It does a really great job of setting the stage for why we need to be thinking about equity-based practices. And I really enjoy how practical things are. So, the book goes through describing what a representative lesson would look like. And so, it's a really nice blueprint for teachers as they're thinking about students' identities and how to promote positive math identity amongst their students. And then I think we also mentioned Rough Draft Math by Amanda Jansen, which is a good read. And then there's also a new book that came out recently, Cultivating Mathematical Hearts: Culturally Responsive [Mathematics] Teaching in Elementary Classrooms. And this book goes even deeper by having vignettes and having specific classroom examples of what teaching in this kind of way can look like. So those are three resources off the top of my head that you could dig into and have book clubs at your schools and engage with your fellow educators and grow together. Mike: I think that's a great place to stop. Thank you so much for joining us today. This has really been a pleasure. Karisma: Oh, it's been a pleasure talking to you too. Thank you so much for this opportunity. Mike: This podcast is brought to you by The Math Learning Center and the Maier Math Foundation, dedicated to inspiring and enabling all individuals to discover and develop their mathematical confidence and ability. © 2025 The Math Learning Center | www.mathlearningcenter.org

Today, Tahnee welcomes Naturopath Jennifer Ward of Halsa Health onto the show. Jennifer specialises in women's health, particularly in preconception, pregnancy and postpartum care. The women share a beautiful conversation surrounding preconception, what it is, what it entails, the role diet, lifestyle and stress play in hormonal health and why both women and men need to share the load when it comes to fertility and conception. Throughout their chat, Tahnee and Jennifer explore the intricacies of preconception, delving into the many elements that are involved on the journey of preparing the body and psyche to carry and birth a child.  Jennifer, through her extensive work within a holistic and clinical setting, emphases the importance of an individualised approach, one that involves simple, sustainable, daily health practices to create an environment in which the body feels safe to host a growing child. Jennifer highlights that ideally fertility is engaged with as a daily practice, and not thought of as something that is only tended if and when a woman wants to become pregnant. Offering practical advice on managing stress and tuning into the body's natural rhythms through simple acts such as getting enough sleep, spending time in nature, and practicing gratitude. The women explore the nuanced balance between being informed and becoming overwhelmed by the plethora of information available on preconception care, and the often overlooked role that male partners play in the preconception process overall. With attention called to the fact that their health and stress levels also play a crucial role in a successful conception. This episode is a reminder that the journey to motherhood and beyond is deeply personal, and that women, by taking the time to listen to their bodies and seek support from the modalities and practitioners that feel aligned with their innate and individual needs can make all the difference. After all each woman is the oracle of her own living system.  For those interested in learning more about Jennifer's work or seeking personalised support, find her at Halsa Health, and the links below.  Jennifer & Tahnee discuss: - Body literacy and the menstrual cycles. - The importance of preconception care for both women and men.  - How diet, lifestyle and stress influence fertility and hormonal health. - Embracing preconception as a long term daily practice. - The connection between diet culture and nutrient deficiencies in women.    Resource Guide: Guest Links Jennifer's Website Jennifer's Instagram Jennifer's Facebook Halsa Health Website Halsa Health Instagram Halsa Health Facebook Mentioned In This Episode Jennifer's Preparing The Body For Pregnancy Online Course Related Podcasts Nurturing All Phases of Birth with Nutritionist Tahlia Mynott (EP#138)   Connect With Us: SuperFeast InstagramSuperFeast FacebookSuperFeast TikTok SuperFeast Online Education   Check Out The Transcript Below: https://www.superfeast.com.au/blogs/articles/preconception-naturopathic-care-with-jennifer-ward-217

Believe it or not, Jennifer Ward was an artist before becoming perhaps one of the best-known and respected registered dietitians in the region. Just as her own philosophy on diet and nutrition has shifted and evolved based on experience continuing research, the entire industry has changed significantly over time. With that said, Jen says the food industry does not make it easy for people to eat healthy and that the prevalence of GMOs, particularly in wheat products, isn't doing us any favors. However, there are a lot of ways to tweak and find what works for you in eating better, feeling better and having more energy. We cover a lot of ground in the episode including: the process to become an registered dietician whose work is covered by major insurers, the four quadrant diet guide and the pyramid diet guide from the 1990s that led millions astray (and we never received an apology for), how the gluten-free industry has exploded in part because of GMOs, a right way and wrong way to eat gluten-free, listening to your body on foods that work and don't work for you, High Lawn Farm milk, the Paleo Project, oat milk, the grocery store sticker codes on produce, reading labels, common sense on portions, carb loading, changing habits, FODMAP diet, blood type diet, dinner for breakfast/breakfast for dinner concept, intermittent fasting, time-restricted eating, giving your pancreas a break, is breakfast the most important meal of the day (or is it just a marketing ploy by food companies), Fiona's frameworthy VO2 Max, the perfect tapering of Coach Gary Curry, Brendan's shoe-flipping enterprise, intent and the basal ganglia and more. I hope you'll enjoy my conversion with Jennifer Ward.  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/john-krol/support

When fierce professionals and industry leaders in their own right join together in business, it is bound to create a force to be reckoned with. And that's exactly what happened when Jennifer Ward and Jennifer Wood joined together and launched Jump Media LLC, one of the largest comprehensive public relations agencies in North America. Powerhouses in their own right and beyond comparison when teamed up together, these ladies are responsible for much of the Public relations, and industry content that we see today. Both Jennifers still maintain and grow their own business entities in Starting Gate communications from Jennifer Ward and Jennifer Wood Media from Jennifer Wood, which has them covering every inch of the equine industry and reaching the heart and mind of the furthest advocate. I had the wonderful pleasure of sitting down with the Jens recently and remotely of course, and believe me - it was a tall order to keep it all straight but I do believe that if you listen on, you'll discover a pot of gold from the start, and all the way to the end of the rainbow.

I feel fundamentally changed in the best kind of way and it's just a complete joy to have the opportunity to speak and understand. Of course I still consider myself a student, don't get me wrong, I will be until I die. But to have the opportunity to understand this beautiful, poetic, witty, funny, deep, wide language, I couldn't have asked for a better gift."

This week, we have another Denver house hacking treat for you all! We know how high living cost areas can be a burden and wanted to give everyone a few examples as to how you can hack those expensive housing costs. Jennifer and her husband first started with a house in Denver. They soon realized Airbnb was taking off and decided to go house hunt for a property that has an income suite that can easily be rented on Airbnb. Still keeping the original house and renting it out, Jennifer and her husband moved to a new house just outside of Denver. By using a hard money loan, she was able to make short-term payments while getting the Airbnb renovations done. After living 3 years in this house, Jennifer and her husband decided to move back to the original house and renovate it into a similar Airbnb style house. By renting this Airbnb in the original out to travel nurses, Jennifer was able to cut down more than half of her housing costs.

Jennifer Ward has built a full life after a bike accident left her with a traumatic brain injury at 19. In fact she tried to go one with her life like she was largely unaffected after she got out of treatment. She went back to work as a lifeguard and back to college. She did realize she had to slow down a bit over time. And she still managed to get married and have children, become a reiki master and nutritional advisor. She does struggle with memory loss and emotional regulation, like so many of us with traumatic brain injury. In fact she and I met because we both went through the Mt. Sinai Emotional Regulation program in NYC. It's helped us recognize how we are triggered to react with immediate, outsized emotions and try to take action beforehand. Her kids even help her. Jennifer is trying every day to move through this space more elegantly.A Note On The Life Over Pain Theme Music:Emily Bielagus graciously and generously composed the lovely theme music for the Life Over Pain podcast.

We spoke with one participant, Jennifer Ward, who came from Boston to attend The Send.

That tune inspired the CD of the same name. The last CD, in fact, of Jed Marum. I was saddened last week when I learned that Jed passed away on May 2. He was 66 years old. Jed's music has been a big part of this podcast. He first showed up in show #13. But he quickly became an essential part of the show. He even allowed me to share some of his CDs, in their entirety, on the podcast. #42 featured Lonestar Stout. #91 featured Soul of a Wanderer. My first big experience with Jed Marum was at the Texas Scottish Festival in 2011. I shared a stage with him and Hugh Morrison other musicians. I'm not a super outgoing guy. But Jed approached me and made me feel like he did with everyone, like one of the family. He was kind and generous person. So today, I'm gonna highlight his music. I'll share of the music of others as well. But it's mostly about Jed. His passing is a great loss to the Celtic community. I want to celebrate his life with music.

Here he is in character for his role in Road to Valhalla from Lone Chimney Films" Melissa Tatum emailed a voice recording: "I heard you were soliciting memories of Jed Marum for a show.

I have been married to Jennifer Ward for 18 years. I achieved a BA in Business Management from Coastal Carolina University in 1995.  I have been preaching as an Evangelical Preacher since 1997. I was Licensed to preach in 17 March 2010 and Ordained on the 24th of February 2013 by First Family Baptist Church of Columbia, TN.   I have been the Pastor at Allensville Baptist Church in Mt. Pleasant, TN since 24 June 2012 where the church has grown from average worship attendance of 30 to a current average attendance of 65. Jesus Christ has saved 45 souls for Baptism since I have been the Pastor at Allensville. I have preached in many areas in the Southeastern part of the United States as well as in Iraq and Kuwait.  I am a combat veteran who was deployed to Iraq from 2007 to 2008. During that time frame I started a church which led to countless lives being saved. I preached to Muslims who were converted to Christianity and gave their lives to Jesus Christ. We had multi-national members of our church to include countries such as Iraq, Kuwait, Egypt, Sri Lanka, the United States, the Philippines, Kenya and Uganda. The church which started on my deployment in August of 2007 lasted through the end of Iraqi Freedom in December of 2011. We started with 5 members; this church grew to 80 plus members strong from the time we began until the end of the war. I have worked for 20 years with the Federal Government in Nashville, TN.  I have also served in the US Army for the last 31 years and I am currently a Chief Warrant Officer Four in the Tennessee Army National Guard. I have been born to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to the masses and it is a Blessing to do so.
