Send us Fan MailGrief doesn't just hurt, it reorganizes your whole inner world. I'm Tracy, and I'm talking openly about what happens when trauma and betrayal blow up your sense of safety, your memories, and even your ability to make the kind of art you used to love. I've got supplies unpacked and the urge to create, but the quiet can feel brutal, and the blank page can pull up anger, shock, and the life I thought I had.I share what betrayal trauma feels like in real time: the way songs and TV can trigger instant spirals, the loneliness of having no one left to confront, and the heavy reality of selling what I believed was my forever home. Starting over at this stage of life is daunting, especially when trust in your own decisions feels broken. I also talk about the guilt of leaning on my kids for comfort and why I'm trying hard not to make them carry that weight.There are small lights, though. My therapist keeps reminding me to chase micro joys and micro goals, and I'm trying: journaling, writing, moving my body, taking a knitting class, and letting myself consider making darker art when that's what needs to come out. Community helps too, especially mahjong and the chance to teach and share what I'm creating. If you've ever felt like you can create for others but not for yourself, you'll hear your own thoughts in this one. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find honest conversations about grief, healing, and creativity.Support the showCatch the doodles on YouTubeMy socials:Sign up for my monthly newsletterPortfolio website: Brewtifully.comInstagram: /BrewtifullyFacebook: /brewtifullyTikTok: GettingSmallwithGrandmaLinkedIn: Tracy Dawn Brewer

Love doesn't follow rules or boundaries. In a diverse society, it often brings together people from different cultural backgrounds, creating relationships that can be as enriching as they are complex. On Sistas Let's Talk, Natasha Meten explores the shared sense of connection, respect and belonging that couples have despite their cultural differences.  She speaks to Pauline Dorney from Papua New Guinea, Cook Islands Māori woman Mari Unuia Sanga and Fijian Finau Vulivuli about how bringing together different cultures can come with its own unique joys, challenges and lessons along the way. Listen on ABC Radio Australia. 

We often speak about the pressures and heartbreaks of pastoral ministry. But we speak far less about its joys, privileges and eternal rewards.Matt Fuller, Senior Minister of Christ Church Mayfair, joins us to discuss his new book, The Joyful Pastor (Despite Everything).We talk about difficult sheep, false accusations, losing joy, practising thankfulness, avoiding burnout and returning daily to Christ.And we explore something pastors rarely discuss: the reward promised by the Chief Shepherd.“When the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory.” — 1 Peter 5:4An honest and encouraging conversation for weary pastors.To watch or listen to Bible Teaching from Dominic Steele at Village Church Annandale Sydney goto this link.

Haruto exclaimed from the driver's seat.Ja: 「新しい冒険も待ってるかもしれないよ！」En: "There might be new adventures waiting for us!"Ja: Yukikoは微笑み、窓の外を眺めました。En: Yukiko smiled and gazed out the window.Ja: 「昔、家族とこの道を通ったときのこと、よく覚えているの。En: "I remember passing this way with my family long ago.Ja: どこかに寄り道できたらいいな。」En: It'd be nice if we could make a little detour somewhere."Ja: Aikoは地図を見ながら、優しく答えました。En: Looking at the map, Aiko replied gently,Ja: 「きっと昔の思い出が蘇るね、En: "I'm sure the old memories will come back to life.Ja: どこに行くのかワクワクするわ。」En: I'm excited about where we'll end up."Ja: しかし、進んで行くと、予定外の渋滞が三人を待ち受けていました。En: However, as they continued, an unexpected traffic jam awaited the three of them.Ja: 車の列は停滞し、空気はどこか重たくなっていきます。En: The line of cars stalled, and the atmosphere became somewhat heavy.Ja: 「目的地に遅れちゃうかもね。」Harutoは心配そうに言います。En: "We might be late to our destination," Haruto said worriedly.Ja: Yukikoはしばらく考え込みましたが、その後に微かな笑みを浮かべました。En: After pondering for a moment, Yukiko gave a slight smile.Ja: 「昔、知っている場所があるの。En: "There's a place I know from the past.Ja: そこで少し休めるかもしれない。」En: We might be able to rest there for a bit."Ja: 彼女の言葉に二人は顔を見合わせ、そして頷きました。En: Both friends exchanged glances at her words and then nodded.Ja: 計画を変えて、Yukikoの案内で車を走らせました。En: Changing their plans, they drove on with Yukiko leading the way.Ja: 小さな差し掛けを過ぎると、古びた小道が広がりました。En: After passing a small crossing, an old path opened up.Ja: そこは、緑の中にひっそりと佇む竹林で、どこか懐かしい風景が包み込みます。En: There, nestled quietly in the greenery, was a bamboo grove that embraced them with a nostalgic landscape.Ja: 「ここがその場所だよ。」とYukikoは静かに言います。En: "This is the place," Yukiko said calmly.Ja: 三人は竹林を進み、清流の音が近づいてきました。En: The three of them ventured into the bamboo grove, with the sound of a clear stream drawing near.Ja: その場所に立ち止まると、心が洗われるような静けさが広がりました。En: When they stopped in that place, a serenity that seemed to cleanse the soul spread around them.Ja: Harutoは驚きました。En: Haruto was amazed.Ja: 「Yukiko、こんな素敵なところを知ってたなんて！」En: "I didn't know you knew such a wonderful place, Yukiko!"Ja: 「そう、ここで毎年家族と遊んでたの。」Yukikoは目を閉じ、過去の記憶をたぐり寄せます。En: "Yes, I used to come here every year with my family," Yukiko said, closing her eyes and recalling past memories.Ja: Aikoは友達を見て微笑みます。En: Aiko looked at her friends and smiled.Ja: 「時には、こうして計画を変更するのも悪くないね。」En: "Sometimes, it's not so bad to change plans like this."Ja: 三人はしばらく静かにその場に佇み、過去と今を繋ぐ時間を感じました。En: The three stood there quietly for a while, feeling the time that connected past and present.Ja: そして、彼らは再び旅を続けるために戻りました。En: Then, they returned to their journey to continue their trip.Ja: 道中に戻ると、今度は心が軽くなり、笑い声が絶えませんでした。En: Back on the road, their hearts felt lighter, and laughter was constant.Ja: 最初の目的地にたどり着くまでの時間を、せわしく考えないことに決めたのです。En: They decided not to worry about the time it would take to reach their original destination.Ja: 「旅の途中の方が、結局楽しいかもしれないね。」とHarutoが言うと、Yukikoは頷きました。En: "The journey along the way might end up being more fun," Haruto said, to which Yukiko nodded.Ja: 「そう、どこに辿り着くかより、一緒に過ごす時間が大切なんだよね。」En: "Yes, what's important is the time we spend together, rather than where we end up."Ja: こうして彼らは、目的地に辿り着くだけでなく、友情の絆をより深めたのでした。En: Thus, not only did they reach their destination, but they also deepened the bonds of their friendship.Ja: 旅の最後に、三人は清々しい気持ちで温泉に浸り、過ぎ去った夏の日々を思い返しました。En: At the end of the journey, the three of them soaked in the onsen with a clear-hearted feeling, reminiscing about the summer days that had passed.

Summer is here - we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious - but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardener's tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after their planty spaces, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.The lack of rain in many parts of the UK (not all) has been the number one issue for weeks now - rain dances, water bowsers and talk of changing plantings are now a regular feature of conversations throughout gardens as the  Environment Agency declares half of the UK to be in official drought status! But although there have been many losers in this hot, dry weather its not all bad and Saul and Lucy wanted to bringing a little positivity in this weeks podcast with talk of juicy peaches, luscious exotic planting and of course, the wood-fired hot tub!Instagram links:Saul plantsmansaulLucy lucychamberlaingardensIntro and Outro music from https://filmmusic.io"Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)Support the show

I am back with a brand new episode and I want to share with yiu guys what I've been up to recently and a hobby that I developed a love for....Cycling.I'll talk about all this and more in this episode!also I'm back with a spoken word poetry performance in which I hope you all enjoy!

When Savannah Miller found out she was pregnant with her fourth child at 47, she knew this was going to be a learning moment.  “I can't have a home birth these days.  It's not considered to be safe. So I'm having to kind of adjust my expectations around what my birth is gonna look like and just hope that I can kind of retain some of that peaceful, beautiful, connected time with the baby however he comes out,” she told Chioma on this week's episode of The Run-Through with Vogue.  Inspired by her younger sister, actress Sienna Miller who recently had her third child at 44, Savannah is excited to see her blended family grow and for her husband James (who she married four years ago) to experience being a first time dad. “He's stunned, to be honest. There are still moments where he's, like, disbelieving, but mostly, he talks to him all the time. And he, plays The Beatles, relentlessly. He's like, "That will be your favorite music."  As for the misconceptions of being an older parent, Savannah believes there are actually more positives than people realize. As someone who had to balance being a young mom to three kids while building a fashion brand, she's ready to embrace ease and also confide in her support system when needed.  “My son's 21 so he's gonna be more like an uncle to this child. Knowing that I have those people that will really kind of hold this child up in his life was a massive kind of helper in deciding that this was a good thing to do.” Earlier in the episode, Chioma breaks down her August Cover with Daisy Edgar Jones to Chloe. The pair also chat about sports (BTW: we are sad about England!), Charli xcx's secret concert in London, Chloe's trip to the Hamptons, and Teen Vogue Fest! The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Most of what builds a great business doesn't happen in one big move. Gautam Baid, fund manager and author of The Joys of Compounding, joins the Rental Roundtable to talk about how small, steady habits compound into extraordinary results over time — in investing, in business, and in life. From persistence through 1,300 job rejections to why quality always wins in a downturn, this conversation has as much to teach a rental operator as it does an investor.

What is it really like to become a radiologist? In this episode of The Joys of Radiology, Dr. Gautam Agrawal sits down with three Johns Hopkins radiology residents, Dr. Selin Ocal, Dr. Molly Pasque, and Dr. Shefali Jain, for an honest conversation about training, mentorship, AI, and the moments that make radiology so rewarding. They share how they first discovered radiology, the misconceptions they had before residency, and why the specialty is far more collaborative, social, and subjective than many people realize. They also discuss how confidence develops one case at a time, the role of case-based learning and oral boards, and why mistakes can become some of the most memorable learning experiences. The conversation also explores what AI could mean for the future of radiology, how radiologists can remain visible and valuable as clinical consultants, and the patient cases that reminded each resident why their work matters. Whether you are a medical student considering radiology, a resident navigating training, or an experienced radiologist reflecting on your own career, this episode offers a thoughtful look at the joy, growth, and responsibility that come with learning to see what others cannot.

People often assume that someone with brown eyes appears more trustworthy than someone with blue eyes. Research suggests there may be something to that belief—but not for the reason most people think. In fact, eye color may have very little to do with it. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3541379/ Pain seems simple. You get hurt, you feel pain. Problem solved. Except it isn't that simple at all. Why can two people experience the same injury yet report very different levels of pain? How can amputees feel excruciating pain in a limb that no longer exists? Scientists now understand that pain is not merely a signal sent from the body to the brain. Instead, pain is a complex experience shaped by biology, psychology, memory, expectations, emotions, and environment. Dr. Rachel Zoffness, a leading pain expert on the faculty at UCSF School of Medicine, joins me to explain what modern science has discovered about pain, why many traditional assumptions about it are wrong, and how understanding pain differently may help people suffer less. She is author of Tell Me Where It Hurts: The New Science of Pain and How to Heal (https://amzn.to/4afunMR). Life has become incredibly convenient. We no longer unfold paper maps, collect ticket stubs, browse record stores, save newspaper clippings, or carry around many of the physical objects that once filled everyday life. Digital technology has made countless tasks faster and easier—but has something been lost along the way? Ian Bogost believes the answer is yes. He argues that many of the small physical experiences we've eliminated weren't just clutter or inefficiency. They added texture, meaning, memory, and satisfaction to life. In our conversation, he explains how the disappearance of these seemingly insignificant things may be quietly changing our relationship with the world and what we can do to reclaim some of what we've lost. Ian is a staff writer at The Atlantic and author of The Small Stuff: How to Lead a More Gratifying Life (https://amzn.to/3SDVFXf). You've probably heard the travel hack: search for airline tickets too many times and the price will go up. That's why some people clear their browser history, use incognito mode, or switch devices before booking a flight. But does any of that actually work?

John welcomes Avett Brothers bassist Bob Crawford to discuss his new book, “America's Founding Son: John Quincy Adams, From President to Political Maverick.” Crawford explains how JQA, after a mediocre single term in the Oval Office, blossomed into America's “most extraordinary ex-president” and arguably its greatest all-around public servant; the evolution of his popular history podcast The Road to Now; and the genesis of the recent, seemingly unlikely collab between The Avett Brothers and Faith No More frontman Mike Patton.

This piece is essential listening for anyone interested in modern academic publishing. Recorded at the Collaborative Clinical Trials Meeting in Prato, Italy, TopMedTalk hosts Kate Leslie and Mike Grocott speak with Eric Rubin (Editor-in-Chief, New England Journal of Medicine) and Jocalyn Clark (International Editor, BMJ) about medical publishing. The conversation covers, engaging with clinical researchers and seeing impactful work. How AI can help authors—especially non-native English speakers—while raising concerns about confidentiality, inaccurate or fabricated content, reviewer misuse, governance policies that struggle to keep pace, and AI-generated correspondence overwhelming journals. They explore how AI affects originality and idea generation, note an NEJM AI experiment using AI reviews, and consider how journals should communicate beyond clinicians to address misinformation and declining attention, while maintaining trust and collaborating more across publishing and science. -- The 2026 International Practicum on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing will be held at the Balmer Lawn Hotel in Brockenhurst, UK, from September 16th to 18th this year.

This episode, we're stepping back to the golden age of natural history podcasting by resurrecting the format of the classic show Wild Ideas: The Podcast. Joining us on the trail is one of the OG hosts: the man himself, Gordon Maupin. It's a 3-way team-up where each of us brings a heavy-hitting seasonal mystery to the table.First, Steve unravels the rule-breaking world of the Ambystoma polyploid salamander complex, where unisexual lineages are mixing up DNA from different species and blurring the lines of what makes a species a species. Then, Gordon shrinks things down to look at the world of duckweed ecology, a group that includes the smallest flowering plants in the world. Finally, Bill turns our eyes to the skies over the marsh to pull back the curtain on dragonfly migration, looking into the recent science that shows some dragonfly species are multi-generational continental travelers (as well as badass predators).Come listen in as Gordon and the guys answer the question, “What's going on outside?” (Wild Ideas fans, that's for you)This episode was reecorded at the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge in Alabama, NY on May 13, 2026.Episode LinksCheck out the Iroquois National Wildlife Refige and their Bald Eagle Cam.Here's the New York Times article about 7 Podcasts About the Joys of Bird Watching that includes a mention of our show.Episode NotesGetting The Great Egret's Latin Name RightDuring a quick aside this episode, Gordon spotted a Great Egret and Steve tried to recall its scientific name, tentatively going with Erodea alba. He wasn't entirely wrong! The correct name is Ardea alba.While alba means "white," Ardea is Latin for "heron." It also ties back to the ancient myth by everyone's favorite Roman poet Ovid, who wrote about a bird rising directly from the ashes of the burned city of Ardea. What's the Deal With Axolotls?We wondered if the axolotl is in the same genus as the Jefferson and blue spotted salamander (Ambystoma) and yes they are!Species: A. mexicanum (Axolotl) Unlike most members of Ambystomatidae—which typically metamorphose into terrestrial adults—the axolotl exhibits a trait called neoteny (or paedomorphosis). This is where an organism retains juvenile or larval traits into adulthood. Axolotls retains its aquatic, larval features (like its signature feathery external gills) into adulthood and spends its entire life in the water Bill's Hard Claim on ID'ing Jefferson Salamanders Bill said there is no way we could tell if it was a Jefferson salamander: is that true? Bill was basically right if we're talking about visually confirming a female-looking salamander in a blue-spotted/Jefferson overlap zone. Many unisexual individuals cannot be confidently identified by sight, and genetic testing is the clean answer. But during the breeding season, a male with a swollen cloaca is not part of the all-female unisexual lineage, so that can help narrow things down. So, a male in breeding condition can sometimes be identified much more confidently than a female/unisexual-looking animal, but you need to have serious knowledge about species location, morphology, and breeding-season characteristics. The Jefferson Complex vs. the Bigger Unisexual Salamander SituationDuring the episode, Bill had a “wait, what are we even talking about?” moment while Steve was explaining the huge all-female/unisexual Ambystoma salamander lineage.Steve was talking about the big-picture version: a bizarre evolutionary group that can involve genomes from several mole salamander species, including Blue-spotted, Jefferson, Small-mouthed, Streamside, and Tiger Salamanders.Bill, though, was thinking what we hear more about in the Northeast and Great Lakes region: the “Jefferson complex,” or the Blue-spotted/Jefferson Salamander mess. Around here, that usually means you can't usually ID a Jefferson Salamanders or a Blue-spotted Salamander down to species because the sally in front of you may belong to the all-female, polyploid lineage that can't be confidently sorted out just by looking at them.So Bill's question was basically: “Hold on. Is this identification nightmare only a Jefferson/Blue-spotted thing, or does it happen with the other species too?”And the answer is: yep. It can happen with the others too.The narrower Jefferson complex usually refers to the Blue-spotted/Jefferson part of the story, especially in places where those are the main overlapping species. But when scientists zoom out and include the other players (Small-mouthed, Streamside, and Eastern Tiger Salamanders) they usually refer to the whole thing as the unisexual Ambystoma lineage.So the practical field takeaway is this: in places where these species overlap, a female-looking Ambystoma salamander may be impossible to identify with confidence by appearance alone. Even experts may only be making an educated guess unless they use genetic testing. Measuring red blood cell size can help estimate ploidy (basically, whether the animal has extra chromosome sets) but DNA testing is the real way to know which genomes are actually in there. Is Duckweed the Smallest Flowering Plant? Yes, but specifically a microscopic type of it. The world's smallest flowering plants belong to the genus Wolffia - Often referred to as "rootless duckweed" or "watermeal," they are the tiniest members of the duckweed family (Lemnaceae) Individual Wolffia plants are usually less than 1 mm long, roughly the size of a pinhead or cornmeal, and the flowers are correspondingly microscopic.Unlike standard duckweed (Lemna), Wolffia plants do not have roots and appear simply as tiny floating green spheres or oval seeds.The plant produces the world's smallest flower, which forms in a tiny depression on the plant's top surface.Because they are so small and have highly efficient asexual budding, they can easily cover a pond in dense mats before you ever notice an individual plant. Can be found across temperate and tropical regions of North, Central, and South America Correction: Ed Yong's An Immense World (UV, not Infrared)During the episode, Bill mentioned Ed Yong's phenomenal book, An Immense World, and noted that researchers are increasingly discovering how many animals can see in the infrared spectrum. His memory slipped slightly on this one! Yong actually discusses the growing scientific realization that many animals see in the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum, not infrared. (Though as you'll see below, dragonflies do have a few tricks up their sleeves on the other end of the spectrum). Gordon's Question: Infrared Vision & Dragonfly MatingBill's misremembering of what was in An Immense World was prompted by Gordon asking a fantastic question during the recording: Can dragonflies see in the infrared spectrum, and if they can, are they using it to navigate during migration?First, a quick clarification: when most of us hear “infrared,” we immediately picture thermal imaging — animals glowing in the dark, Predator vision, that whole thing. That is not what we're talking about here. Dragonflies do not appear to see heat signatures.What they may be able to see is near-infrared — light just beyond the deepest red wavelengths visible to humans. Near-infrared is not heat vision. It is more like an invisible extension of red.According to a recent study published in January 2026 by researchers in Osaka, Japan, some dragonfly species have visual pigments that are sensitive to extremely long red wavelengths, possibly reaching into the near-infrared edge of the spectrum. That alone is pretty wild. But the discovery also highlights a striking example of parallel evolution between insects and primates. Millions of years ago, the ancestors of humans and other primates evolved molecular changes that helped produce red-sensitive vision. This new research suggests that some dragonflies may have independently evolved a similar molecular tuning mechanism for detecting red light. However, while primate red vision operates within the visible spectrum, some dragonflies appear to have pushed that sensitivity even farther, toward the boundary between deep red and near-infrared.So what are they doing with this ability? Probably not navigating migration, at least as far as we know.The better-supported idea is that this long-wavelength vision helps dragonflies identify mates quickly in flight. Male and female dragonflies can reflect red and near-infrared light differently, especially against green vegetation. So for an animal making split-second decisions while zipping around at high speed, that extra visual contrast could be a big deal. So to answer Gordon's question, dragonflies may be seeing farther into the red/near-infrared edge of the spectrum than we can, but based on what researchers currently know, they're probably using that ability for rapid sex recognition, not long-distance navigation. It's more of a high-speed dragonfly dating filter than infrared GPS.The Missing Piece: Visual Cues and "Leading Lines" in MigrationOne big element Bill neglected to mention in covering how dragonfies navigate during migration is the VISUAL piece – that they also use what they're seeing! That is a crucial piece of the puzzle. Dragonflies are also extremely visual animals. Those huge compound eyes are not just for decoration. So, what they're seeing is likely a key piece in their migration toolbox. Migrating dragonflies are often observed moving along major landscape features: coastlines, mountain ridges, river valleys, and other long, continuous edges. Biologists sometimes refer to these kinds of features as leading lines, because they can help guide or funnel migrating animals across the landscape.That doesn't mean a dragonfly is looking down and thinking, “Ah yes, the Susquehanna River. I'll take this south.” But these landscape features can still matter in several ways.Coastlines can keep migrants from drifting too far over open water, which is risky for an insect that eventually needs to land, rest, and feed.Mountain ridges and long hillsides can create useful air currents and updrafts, allowing dragonflies to ride favorable winds and conserve energy.River corridors can provide both a visual pathway and good stopover habitat, with water, vegetation, and plenty of small flying insects to eat when they need to refuel.The overall migration story for dragonflies probably isn't “dragonflies have one magic compass.” It's more like they are combining a bunch of cues at once: the visual structure of the landscape below them, as well as the elements covered during the episode. Steve's Questions: Resident vs. Migratory Green Darners & The Thermal Genetic SwitchDuring the episode, Steve asked two really good questions about Common Green Darners: if some are migratory and some are resident, how do they know which group to mate with? And could temperature be the thing that nudges a young darner down one path or the other?The first answer is surprisingly simple: they probably don't know, and they probably don't care.For a long time, researchers assumed these groups were reproductively isolated, believing residents emerged and died before the migratory cohort reached adulthood, but modern research has overturned this idea. According to a comprehensive review by Michael L. May and John H. Matthews, adult flight periods absolutely overlap in mid-summer, and genetic testing reveals zero genetic differentiation between the groups. The entire continental population belongs to a single, randomly mating gene pool. So when a Common Green Darner is ready to mate, it is probably not checking whether the other darner is from the “resident” or “migratory” team. It is just mating with another mature Common Green Darner in the same airspace. Very romantic. Very dragonfly.Steve's second question gets at something even more interesting: what makes one generation migrate while another stays put?This is where temperature, day length, and seasonal timing seem to matter a lot. A Green Darner nymph developing in warm water during long summer days may be pushed toward faster development. That can produce adults that emerge, feed heavily, build up energy reserves, and migrate south in late summer or fall.But if nymphs are developing as temperatures drop and days get shorter, their development can slow down. Instead of rushing to become adults, they may overwinter as aquatic nymphs and emerge the following year. Those individuals can then become part of the resident breeding population in northern ponds.So Steve's instinct was basically right: environmental conditions appear to play a huge role in shaping whether a darner develops quickly and migrates, or slows down and overwinters.The only thing to be careful about is the phrase “genetic switch.” There probably are changes in gene expression involved. Temperature and day length can absolutely affect how insects develop, but in Common Green Darners, we should probably think of it less as a single switch being flipped and more as a whole developmental pathway being shaped by the environment.The short version: migratory and resident Green Darners are not separate species or rival dragonfly factions. They appear to be part of one big, mixed population whose life cycle can play out in different ways depending on timing, temperature, and local conditions.Sponsors and Ways to Support UsThank you to Always Wandering Art (Website and Etsy Shop) for providing the artwork for many of our episodes.Support us on Patreon.Works CitedHallworth, M.

Kelly talks with medical astrologer and naturopath Kira Sutherland about the joys of the planets, with a focus on the 6th and 12th houses and the joys of Mars and Saturn.Kelly and Kira talk about how benefic and malefic planets link to ideas of good or difficult fortune, and how recent translations of ancient texts have added many new layers to contemporary astrological practice. And they dig into the sixth and twelfth houses from a health perspective, describing the sixth as the place of acute illness and hard work on health, and the twelfth as chronic conditions, confinement, and convalescence.For more on Kira's work with health and medical astrology, check out her website:https://www.astrologyofhealth.com/For Kelly's teaching on the Joys of the Planets and the 12 Houses, pop over tohttps://www.kellysastrology.com/product/planetary-joys-and-the-houses/

Most people wait for opportunity. The best ones sell their way into it. Enjoyed my conversation with Fred Fisher. 50+ years in business. Still sharp. Still curious. 4 things that stuck: 1 - Opportunity is sold — not given. At 17, he talked his way into a French kitchen in Grenoble. Sales isn't a department. It's a life skill. 2 - Listening wins. Great mentors don't preach. They ask questions that flip the light switch. 3 - Technology scales. Humans close. Email is efficient. The phone builds trust. 4 - If you want to grow faster than the people around you — pick up the phone. Never stop learning.   --- Frederick Fisher, J.D., CCP, is a seasoned expert in Professional Liability with a career spanning over 50 years. Renowned for his dedication to client financial security, he advocates for providing clients with strong financial safeguards, letting competitors focus on ""selling some insurance."" Fisher serves on the Editorial Board of Agents of America, is an original faculty member at the Claims College's School of Professional Lines (sponsored by the Claims & Litigation Management Association) and has been the Senior Technical Advisor for over 30 years on a research manual titled Professional Liability Insurance published by the International Risk Management Institute. A founding member and Past President of the over 40,000-member strong Professional Liability Underwriting Society (PLUS), he was awarded the PLUS Founders Award in 2019. In addition to his roles in education and advisory, Fisher is a prolific writer and speaker. He authored the 2024 publication "Claims Made Insurance - The Policy That Changed the Industry" (published by the Insurance Journal/Wells Publishing Co.) and has over 80 industry-related articles to his name, along with more than 150 industry-related presentations and classes. Fisher's career began with two decades as a Professional Lines Claims Adjuster, specializing in Professional Liability claims, qualitative claim audits, risk management, and loss control. Later, he founded ELM Insurance Brokers, where he led as CEO for over 20 years. Currently, he consults as a Subject Matter Expert for several PLUS RPLU courses, advises A.M. Best as a recommended expert, and provides expert witness testimony. Known for his insights into "The Gotchya's that'll Getchya ™ 1" of Executive Liability and Specialty Lines Insurance, he remains a trusted advisor to businesses navigating complex liability landscapes. Fred not only has a remarkable sense of humor, but also knows how to explain complex insurance contract language in a way that is understandable to everyone. Having grown up with an educated palate, Fred is an excellent cook. That comes as no surprise when one learns that, as a student, he spent time in France and convinced a local restaurant to teach him to cook, a hobby he still savors. In the 80s, he also published a cookbook, the Joys of Spice.

Reporting assignments can often lead to unexpected joys and lessons. That was the case when NPR's Natalie Escobar and Ava Berger were sent on the road to tag along with three teenage boys competing in the World Series of Birding. The teens had 24 hours to crisscross New Jersey and tally up the number of bird species they spotted. For this week's Reporter's Notebook we hear from Escobar and Berger about how the assignment was both challenging and illuminating.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
