What does it really mean to be supported when you're living with Long Covid? In this special community episode, I share stories submitted by long haulers, caregivers, and allies...real voices answering questions about isolation, chosen family, and the kind of help that actually helps.Contributors include Dr. Julia Moore Vogel, pacing buddy extraordinaire Katrina Dreamer, Nina Storey, Katherine Fox, and members of the Covid Long Haulers podcast Discord, (Thank you to Emerson, Jessie, Mika, Vic, Kai, Robyn, Joyce, Jojo, and more) along with a handful of anonymous long haulers who remind us that sometimes the people who understand us most are the ones whose legs we've never seen.This episode explores what it looks like when community shows up: friends attending doctor's appointments to combat medical gaslighting, online friends building their own Covid-conscious community across Switzerland, a rental cat named Katja who has thoughts about pacing, and two little boys - Ellis and Holden - who became besties on PlayStation because their moms both have Long Covid and, as Ellis put it, "we understand each other."Contributors also talk about what people get wrong when they try to help, and what "let me know if you need anything" actually sounds like to someone who's already been fighting for their life for years.This is an episode about what we've built together. Not in spite of this illness, but because of it.Topics covered include:Long COVID community and chosen familyIsolation and online support for long haulersWhat caregivers and loved ones get wrong about supportCovid-conscious community buildingPeer support, pacing buddies, and mutual aidChildren of long haulers finding connectionLong Covid Awareness Month 2026Mentioned or featured in this episode:The Covid Long Haulers Podcast (Emerson & Jessie)Dr. Julia Moore VogelNina Storey (singer-songwriter & long hauler)Katrina Dreamer (my pacing buddy, ep. 1, season 2 & season 3)Lissy Donovan (long hauler and business owner, ep. 9, season 3)@alecbradburyfnp, @_jemma_bella, @dougieslifewithmecfs

Die Literaturagenten wünschen Happy Welt-Frauentag! Wir sprechen mit Yade Yasemin Önder über ihren "Anti Müller", einen Roman, der ungemein wütend und schreiend komisch auf Beziehungen, Kinderwunsch, Kulturbetrieb und die subtilen Fortsetzungen des Patriarchats schaut. In der Rubrik "Autorinnen sind auch nur Leserinnen" holt Katja Kullmann einen fast verschollenen feministischen Klassiker zurück ins Scheinwerferlicht: Helen Hodgmans "Gleichbleibend schön". Dazu verrät Comic-Künstlerin Ulli Lust ("Die Frau als Mensch") welches Buch, sie umgehauen hat, und Literaturagentin Anne-Dore Krohn rezensiert Judith Hermanns "Ich möchte zurückgehen in der Zeit". Deutschlands führende Frauenmedizinerin Prof. Dr. Mandy Mangler liefert mit "Don’t miss the Clitoris – Eine Bedienungsanleitung" ein nötiges und sehr unterhaltsames Aufklärungsbuch, und als "Lesegold" hören wir in die Hörbuchfassung von Irmgard Keuns Klassiker "Kind aller Länder".
Katja, besser bekannt als DJ Pandora, zählt seit vielen Jahren zu den prägenden Figuren am Wiener Drum & Bass-Himmel. Kaum eine Künstlerin der Szene hat einen derart langen Atem bewiesen und über so viele Jahre hinweg kontinuierlich Veranstaltungen organisiert - „diszipliniert“, wie sie selbst sagt. Nun steht für sie ein neuer Lebensabschnitt bevor. Ein „Switch“, könnte man sagen - im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes. (superfly.fm)

In der heutigen Folge des Experten-Podcasts spricht Katja Fesselmann, Heilpraktikerin, darüber, warum wir als „Marie Kondo des Lebens" Ordnungen wiederherstellen müssen, statt mit Ursprung oder Eltern zu hadern. Das heilt chronische Krankheiten wie MS, Krebs oder Autoimmunleiden sowie Beziehungs- und Berufsprobleme. Unbewusste Glaubenssätze, Muster und abgespaltene Anteile nach Trauma verursachen Symptome.

AI shopping agents aren't just on the horizon, they're here, already transacting, and already raising some important questions.In this episode, we speak with Katja Forbes an award winning customer experience futurist, business strategist, and keynote speaker recognised for her insights into the intersection of AI, design, and human behaviour. She is also the author of Machine Customers: The Evolution Has Begun, a book about what happens when your best customer is no longer human.In this fascinating conversation we cover everything from what's already happening with agentic commerce right now, to an incredible story out of China that reveals just how fast consumer behaviour can be reshaped at massive scale.In this episode you'll hear:• Why the shopping agents built by the retailers you already use may not be working in your interest • What it means that AI agents now have access to their own credit cards and the guardrails (or lack thereof) around them• How some of the world's largest businesses are already using AI to handle a significant share of their procurement • The practical steps marketers and business owners should be taking right now, before agentic commerce becomes the norm, and . . .• Why your website could become largely irrelevant and what that means for how you show up to both humans and machines.Katja also shares a candid look at the environmental and ethical questions we need to be asking as frictionless purchasing increasingly becomes a reality. This conversation is set to change how you think about your next online purchase and, if you're in marketing or procurement or e-commerce, then this is one you simply cannot miss.

I'm delighted to speak with Katja Rewitz in this week's episode. Katja is a second year PhD student at the Dynamics of Human Performance Regulation Laboratory at the University of Hamburg. Her research focuses on human sensations and their influence on decision-making and performance behaviour. In this episode, we discuss a fascinating paper led by Katja which examines the explore-exploit framework related to decision making in sport and exercise. The explore-exploit framework has been instrumental in advancing our understanding of decision-making across fields such as cognitive science, behavioural economics, and clinical psychology. The authors propose that the explore-exploit framework could provide valuable insights into decision-making processes in sports and exercise where decisions naturally occur in dynamic, uncertain environments with fluctuating rewards and inherent costs.

Katja Hrobat Virloget"Esodo. Il silenzio di chi resta"Traduzione Lucia Gaja ScuteriBottega Errante Edizioniwww.bottegaerranteedizioni.itIo avevo chiesto a casa, avevo fatto delle domande, me lo ricordo, nel '54, '55, perché in prima elementare eravamo in quarantatré, ma ogni giorno mancava qualcuno. E io tornavo a casa e dicevo: “Mamma, non c'è questo e questo, non c'è Vinicio, non c'è Lucio, non c'è più Maria, ma dove sono andati?”. “Ah, sì” mi diceva “vedrai che torneranno”. Ma io ero piccola, vivevamo molto isolati… Guardi, ora le dirò una cosa: io l'esodo l'ho scoperto soltanto quando ho letto i libri di Tomizza. E questo all'Università di Belgrado! Non se ne parlava, ecco.Un'antropologa e ricercatrice indaga le memorie dei rimasti dopo l'esodo: uomini e donne che nei turbolenti anni del secondo dopoguerra non hanno lasciato l'Istria assieme a gran parte della comunità italiana per raggiungere l'Italia; persone che sono rimaste in Jugoslavia e da maggioranza sono diventate minoranza. Voci scomode sia per chi vorrebbe raccontare l'esodo solo come migrazione di vittime sia per chi invece lo intende solo come opzione di scelta. Voci ridotte al silenzio per decenni che finalmente raccontano la propria storia.Nel complesso mosaico di ciò che è stato l'esodo giuliano-dalmata, si inserisce ora un tassello mancante: il racconto dei destini delle persone comuni che rimasero, che si adattarono, che ricostruirono una società assieme a coloro che arrivarono dall'interno della Jugoslavia a colonizzare il “selvaggio West” istriano.Un racconto composto da testimonianze toccanti, raccolte in dieci anni con rigoroso metodo antropologico nell'area litoranea slovena e con un obiettivo principale: abbandonare gli stereotipi e lasciare finalmente parlare il silenzio.Katja Hrobat Virloget (Koper/Capodistria, 1976) Professoressa ordinaria e direttrice del dipartimento di Antropologia e Studi culturali della facoltà di Studi umanistici dell'Università del Litorale di Koper/Capodistria.

Landschaften, Stillleben, Gesichter, Kinderbilder – Paula Modersohn-Becker hat gemalt, wie sie die Welt sah. In ihrer Zeit war die junge Künstlerin eine Ausnahmegestalt. Stur und willensstark hat sie sich als Frau mit ihrer Leidenschaft für die Kunst und Malerei, auch gegen familiäre Skepsis, durchgesetzt. Ihre Bilder zeigen Menschen und Natur neu, modern, anders, schonungslos und ungeschönt. Bahnbrechend wurde ihr weiblicher Selbstakt von 1906. Bereits 1907, kurz nach der Geburt ihrer Tochter, starb die junge Künstlerin im Alter von 31 Jahren.Wer war diese unangepasste, selbstbewusste Pionierin des deutschen Expressionismus? Das Landesmuseum Hannover beherbergt eine der weltweit größten Sammlungen von Werken Modersohn-Beckers. Aus Anlass des 150. Geburtstages der Künstlerin, am 8. Februar 2026, ist Katja Lembke, Direktorin des Landesmuseums, zu Gast in NDR Kultur à la carte. Sie hat als Archäologin und Ägyptologin auch einen besonderen Blick auf die weniger bekannten Zeichnungen und Skizzen von Paula Modersohn-Becker, die während ihrer Paris-Aufenthalte im Louvre entstanden.

What are the best herbs for happiness? How can herbs make you happy? What does “happiness” even mean? These questions are important to consider before we dive right in, searching for “herbs for happiness.”When we say it, we're thinking: what are the things preventing you from being calm & steady? It's not so much about finding the herb to “make” you happy, as it is finding the herbs that alter your state such that happiness is something you can access.If you've ever heard “mimosa is the herb of happiness”, well, you've come across a very common but not very nuanced approach to herbalism. Instead, we need to ask: what's in the way of feeling happiness, and how can we help you get past it? More important than any list of herbs is the method of thinking through how we can identify the herbs that are likely to help a specific person.In the episode we share a couple common tendencies – excess tension and laxity, stuck heat – and describe how those can show up as happiness blockers. Then we share a few herbs we've found helpful in opening the way to happiness for ourselves, our students, and our clients.Keep Calm and Help Your Neighbors with the Birthday BOGO Bundle!Every year for Katja's birthday, we choose a course to offer at 50% off – but this year, we couldn't pick just one course.So instead, we're offering a bundle with the herbs and skills to help you stay steady & grounded, and to help you help your community, and it's more than 50% off!Click through for all the details!You might also want to check out our…Herbs to Help You Feel Happiness – a living/growing list we'll work on all year!Herbal Activity CalendarIf you have a moment, it would help us a lot if you could subscribe, rate, & review our podcast wherever you listen.

In this episode of The BPD Bunch, Xannie and Carys chat with Katja about publishing her first book “Sorry, My Mental Illness Isn't Sexy Enough for You”, going straight for the parts of BPD people never say out loud: shame, “unsexy” symptoms, misdiagnosis, self-sabotage, and why BPD can look totally different from person to person (quiet vs loud presentations, comorbidities, and stigma).If you've ever felt like “I don't look like the BPD stereotype”… this one might feel like a hug.Here's a quote from co-cauthor Kay on why she wrote the book:"Sorry my mental illness isn't sexy enough for you, started out as the title of a blog I wanted to write after witnessing first-hand the difficulties of having mental illness, lack of support and the prevalence of poor treatment. Naturally, I wanted to make a difference but being unwell, combined with my human nature of not being a starter finisher, it lived as an idea in my head for a while. Then came along came Katja with this amazing idea of launching our own mental health project using the name, which is the website we know and love today. If you had told me our little project would be as successful as it has been and that we would be publishing our first book because of it, I would have laughed, but here we are. I'm so incredibly lucky to have been given this opportunity to achieve my wildest dream, and to achieve it with my best friend. Asking why I wrote the book is multifaceted, since the age of 14 I have been involved in Mental Health Activism with the purpose of reducing suffering in people who experience mental health difficulties. I raised awareness in a variety of projects and focused on bringing together people with lived experience and services to work together to improve mental health services. I wanted the book to share my story so that others do not feel alone, and so that I could provide understanding and hope, and to talk about ways people can have agency over their own recovery. Mental illness can sometimes be seen as a moral failing, especially the ‘unsexy ones' that we spend our days challenging. I absolutely feel called to break down this dangerous concept that divides people and communities. I didn't write the book to be cathartic, but I think the process has provided relief in some ways – taking painful and difficult experiences and turning them into something that can help others."Buy the Book

What actually happens when a relationship involving Borderline Personality Disorder ends...from the exes' perspective?In this episode of The BPD Bunch, Xannie sits down with Katja, Raf, and their former partners, John and Danni - who are still in each other's lives - to talk honestly about breakups, impulsivity, communication breakdowns, fear of abandonment, and what recovery actually looks like after the relationship ends. This conversation explores:– What ex-partners noticed (and didn't notice) about BPD symptoms– When “normal” behavior crosses into something harmful– Why some breakups stay amicable, and others don't– The difference between blame and responsibility– How insight, accountability, and communication change outcomesIf you live with BPD, or have loved someone who does, this episode offers nuance, compassion, and reality, not stereotypes.UPLOAD SCHEDULE UPDATE: BPD Bunch brunch episodes will now standalone from the season, and will be uploaded the first Sunday of every month!
Katja wrote this essay years and years ago, and it's still a favorite. Today she needed to hear it again – yeah, you can do that with your own writing, it's allowed, don't worry – and she decided to share it with you. It's about how so many of us think we're the only trainwreck in any given room, and how we all have That Person in our lives (or just in our minds) who seems to really Have It All Together.Why can't I just get it together like That Person?, you think, like everyone does. Like even That Person does, Themselves, sometimes. Like someone might very well be thinking about… you! We are all trainwrecks. Outward appearances aren't the whole story, and it's hard to get to know the people around us. So this experience is super common.But don't worry! There's a lot we can do about it, starting with acknowledging the reality, then asking for help, then getting outside… and also – never doubt it – with a drink of tea. Some of our favorite nervines for these feelings include tulsi, betony, and calamus – but finding your own favorite herbs for these moments is the best way to help yourself.Need to reign in your trainwreck?Check out our Neurological & Emotional Health course.
