This week on Clover, I had the honor of sitting down with Celeste Mergens, bestselling author and founder of Days for Girls, a global movement that has reached nearly 4 million women and girls in 145 countries.Celeste's story is a powerful reminder that leadership doesn't always begin with a master plan. She started out wanting to be an electrical engineer. Life rerouted her into motherhood, raising six children, and later completing two master's degrees. Celeste is also the author of The Power of Days, where she shares the extraordinary story behind the global movement she founded. What she models so beautifully is that nothing is wasted; every season prepares you for the next.Days for Girls began with a moment of awareness in rural Kenya. Celeste discovered that girls were missing school because they lacked access to menstrual products—and in some cases were being exploited just to obtain one. What began as 500 handmade kits sewn by volunteers grew, step by step, into a global movement.In this conversation, we explore:Why menstruation remains one of the world's most persistent taboosHow silence around women's bodies shapes power and opportunityWhat happens when girls reclaim authority over their biologyThe power of invitation over imposition in global leadershipWhy listening—not telling—has been central to Days for Girls' impactWhat it means to trust the next step without seeing the full pathWhat struck me most is that this isn't just about menstrual equity. It's about dignity. It's about rewriting a narrative that has labeled women's bodies as shameful or untouchable—and choosing instead to see them as powerful.Celeste didn't set out to build a global organization. She followed invitations. She paid attention. She acted when she saw injustice. And she held a vision bigger than what felt “measurable and achievable.”Without periods, there would be no people.This episode is about shifting from silence to celebration—and what becomes possible when we're courageous enough to talk about what the world told us not to.ResourcesDays for Girls - WebsiteCeleste Mergens - LinkedInThe Power of Days - Book

As a child in rural Kenya, conservationist Seif Hamisi fell asleep to the sound of lions outside his village. Today, the lions are gone, mirroring a continent-wide trend: African wildlife populations have plummeted in recent decades, despite billions spent to protect nature. Drawing on examples of successful conservation efforts from the grasslands of South Africa to the woodlands of Kenya, he shows how we've been attempting to solve the wrong problem — and makes the case that conservation works best when it makes economic sense.Learn more about our flagship conference happening this April at attend.ted.com/podcast Hosted on Acast.

I recently traveled to Kenya for a journalism and AI conference. While I was there, I really wanted to meet with Michael Geoffrey Asia, the secretary general of the Data Labelers Association. Data Labeling is a huge job in Kenya. Data labelers are the people who train AI, and who also work on ensuring the outputs are accurate. In some cases, data labelers are themselves pretending to be AI, in order to train AI. Often, data labelers don't know exactly what they're working on, because the work usually goes through a platform, a subcontractor, or a combination of both. So basically they can be presented with a backend where they're asked to perform tasks or answer questions; in some cases their answers may be presented in real time as AI. Data labeling is notoriously brutal and underpaid work. Workers sometimes earn as little as a few dollars a day, work under algorithmic management, and, because they're sometimes trying to train AI what not to do or show, they are often shown graphic, violent, or sexual content for hours at a time. It's kind of similar to content moderation jobs, and lots of people do both data labeling and content moderation, or switch back and forth between the industries. It's such a big thing in Kenya that I mentioned it to the driver who took me to meet Michael for this interview, and she told me that she too was a data labeler, as are many of her friends. Michael has since become critical at the Data Labelers Association, a group that is fighting to organize people who do data labeling work and who is advocating for better working conditions, higher pay, and more protections for data labelers. I met Michael at a coworking space in Nairobi in a very tiny room, so I'm not on camera after this, but here's my conversation with Michael.

#210 - What if travel wasn't a checklist but a classroom? I sat with Joy Owens—mother of two, CEO and co-owner of Butler Travel, and veteran of 60 countries—to explore how faith, service, and slow travel can shape a family and a life. From a grandmother who's visited more than 80 countries to Joy's first trip at three months old, her story moves through mission work in Zambia and Kenya, a scrappy road journey toward Argentina, and a solo $10-a-day push to Panama that turned from a rat-infested night into radical hospitality.Joy walks us through teaching in Honduras and Taiwan, the culture shock of moving to Alaska, and why she and her husband bought Butler Travel to serve nonprofits and missionaries with complex ticketing and group logistics. She shares a gripping emergency reroute for a family in Tanzania that helped their daughter reach lifesaving care, and she opens up about surrendering control when December bills loomed, only to witness the agency's busiest month on record. For Joy, faith isn't an accessory; it's how she navigates risk, money, parenting, and purpose.We also dig into the messy magic of traveling with little kids: babies on planes during the quiet months of 2020, a six-week Europe adventure with bikes and tents, and the art of choosing your hard when tantrums and missed trains collide. Joy makes the case for slow travel—one hub, deeper days, fewer repacks—and tells unforgettable stories, from crossing open water in foldable kayaks to a budget misadventure on a Greek island complete with a kindly, very unbothered nude local offering fruit and cheese.If you lead mission trips, plan family journeys, or crave meaningful travel that builds resilience and empathy, this conversation is your map.

When Insurance Gets Between Doctors and PatientsDr. Elizabeth Ames and Dr. Caleb Bupp are deeply committed to their patients. But like so many clinicians today, they're spending an extraordinary amount of time battling insurance companies instead of practicing medicine.Between prior authorizations, step therapy requirements, and outright coverage denials, physicians and their teams are buried in paperwork, often at the direct expense of patient care. Time that should be spent listening, diagnosing, and treating is instead consumed by forms, phone calls, and appeals.Boston Globe reporter Jonathan Saltzman raised the concern and Dr. Ames brought it to my attention. The reporter talks about, a new program rolled out by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts. The insurer says the initiative is designed to control rising healthcare costs for its 3 million members, noting that costs have increased by 30 percent since 2021. But, the program specifically targets physicians who bill for the most expensive visits. The reason for the increased expense, which is discussed in our podcast, is because doctors are choosing to spend more time with rare disease patients who have complicated health issues. They need to spend more time with complex medical needs patients than say, someone with a sore throat.Drs. Ames and Bupp warn that this approach fundamentally misunderstands patient care, particularly for those with complex or rare conditions. “These patients don't need less time; they need more” says Dr. Ames. Physicians argue that policies like this risk rushed appointments, strained doctor/patient relationships, and poorer outcomes. Nowhere is this more concerning than in the rare disease community, where delays and denials can be devastating.Dr. Elizabeth Ames and Dr. Caleb Bupp talk about what this looks like in real life. As pediatric geneticists, they see firsthand how insurance barriers impact families already navigating diagnostic odysseys, uncertainty, and fear. Their work sits at the intersection of cutting-edge science and deeply human stories, and insurance interference often disrupts both. Dr. Ames, “Usually we get faxes saying, this has been denied and we start working on it. But the family gets a letter that the drug they need, the process is delayed by a “no”. We try and have good communication and say, “hey, we got this denial,” we're working on it. But I think it's deaths by a thousand cuts for the family. Families take the denial as, “I'm not worth of coverage, and that's really hard”. Dr. Bupp says they have had to hire genetic counselors, a job that didn't exist even 5 years ago, “We have a job description in our organization for it now because of the complexities that come with trying to unravel these insurance situations”.We should also note that Dr. Ames, Dr. Bupp, and I all serve on the Rare Disease Advisory Council (RDAC) in Michigan. “I think rare disease advocacy, there is power in numbers. One person can be a huge difference maker, but it's not one plus one equals two. It really exponentially grows, and I think with things like rare disease advisory councils, that gives you a better connection within your state, for state government and for advocacy. And I also think, or I hope, that it gives a place for an individual to plug in and that can then magnify and amplify. their voice so that they're not alone”. Many states have RDAC's, You can see if your state has an RDAC. For more on the Michigan RDACIn this article and in the podcast we are not speaking on behalf of the council, but it's important to understand why bodies like RDAC exist in the first place. Michigan is home to approximately one million people living with rare diseases, and the RDAC was created to ensure their voices, and experiences help shape policy. RDAC meetings are open to the public, and anyone in Michigan can participate and offer public comment. We hope you join our meetings via zoom (sometimes hybrid).This conversation isn't just about insurance policies. It's about time, trust, and whether our healthcare system truly serves patients, especially those with the most complex needs. Speak up, share your story. Advocate. Make a difference, Mold the future, for future generations.To look at the Everylife Diagnosis Odyssey https://everylifefoundation.org/delayed-diagnosis-study/ discussed in the podcast.  Everylife impact of diagnosis: https://everylifefoundation.org/burden-study/ Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/enRead us on Substack: https://substack.com/@lstb?utm_campaign=profile&utm_medium=profile-pageWatch our trailer of Embracing Egypt: https://youtu.be/RYjlB25Cr9Y

Rabbi Adam Kligfeld's Shabbat Teaching at Temple Beth Am, Los Angeles, February 14, 2026. (Youtube/Zoom)

I. Introduction Welcome to the Victory Church podcast and Sunday worship gathering. Victory's mission: reaching the lost, restoring the broken, reviving believers.​ Joy and gratitude for being in God's house where worship, prayer, the Word, and fellowship occur.​ Emphasis that God's grace enabled people to be present, overcoming hindrances.​ II. The Nature and Purpose of Prayer Prayer and the Word as central priorities at Victory Church.​ Biblical commands to pray: “men ought always to pray,” “pray without ceasing,” “watch and pray,” “continue earnestly in prayer.”​ Clarification: prayer is not a religious ritual but a relational conversation with a loving Father.​ Prayer as sharing cares, dreams, concerns with God; Scripture as God sharing His thoughts and heart with us.​ III. Reactive vs. Proactive Prayer A. Reactive Prayer Definition: responding to events, crises, and immediate needs after they happen.​ Typical reactive requests: jobs, finances, housing, healing, family and school pressures.​ Affirmation: these needs matter to God; believers should cast all cares on Him.​ Problem: if this is the only kind of praying, discipleship and prayer life are out of alignment with God's best.​ B. Proactive Prayer Definition: creating or shaping situations by praying God's will in advance, not only reacting.​ Example from the Lord's Prayer: “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven” as a proactive request.​ Goal: move believers beyond crisis-only praying into kingdom-focused, forward-looking prayer.​ IV. Acts 4 as a Model of Prayer A. Context of Acts 4 Acts as early church history, showing the Spirit-empowered beginnings of the church.​ Peter and John preaching, healing a crippled man, and provoking opposition from religious leaders.​ Authorities command them not to speak or teach in the name of Jesus.​ Connection to today: pressure in culture to silence biblical truth and the name of Jesus.​ B. The Disciples' Response They return “to their own” (the church, fellow believers) when threatened.​ Principle: where you turn in crisis reveals much about your heart.​ They share the report as a prayer request and turn immediately to corporate prayer.​ They pray in alignment with Scripture (Psalm 2) and God's will, not just emotions.​ C. Content of Their Prayer (Acts 4:24–31) Acknowledge God as Creator and Sovereign Lord over heaven and earth.​ Rehearse Scripture about nations raging and rulers opposing the Lord and His Christ.​ Interpret persecution as part of God's sovereign purpose in Christ's suffering.​ Reactive element: “Lord, look on their threats.”​ Proactive element: ask for boldness to speak the Word, and for God's hand to heal with signs and wonders in Jesus' name.​ Result: the place is shaken, all are filled with the Holy Spirit, and they speak God's Word with boldness.​ V. Praying with the Word and God's Will Call to pray not only from need or emotion but aligned with Scripture.​ Examples of praying Scripture over needs (provision, healing, emotional and spiritual needs, relationships).​ Recognition that God's will includes timing; believers must be sensitive and obedient.​ Emphasis: there is power when prayer and the Word are joined.​ VI. From Problem to Launching Pad Observation: in Acts 4, the crisis launches the church into deeper proactive prayer, not retreat.​ Instead of praying primarily for safety and comfort, they pray for greater boldness and impact.​ Application: believers today should ask God to use trials to produce testimony, messages, and greater influence for His glory.​ VII. Call to a Proactive Kingdom Focus A. For Truth and Witness in a Confused Culture Culture tolerates generic “god talk” but reacts strongly to the exclusive claims of Jesus.​ Expect opposition when living and speaking biblical truth, without being obnoxious or hypocritical.​ The church must stand firm on Scripture, not be shaped by social media or worldly opinions.​ B. For Local and Global Mission Victory Church's call: reach Providence and the nations through evangelism and missions.​ Example: missions trips (Kenya, Sierra Leone, Liberia) and conferences to strengthen pastors and churches.​ Appeal for proactive prayer for missions: bold preaching, anointing, signs and wonders, and lasting fruit.​ C. For Revival and Awakening Distinction: revival for the church (bringing believers back to life), awakening for the lost.​ Invitation to pray for souls, discipleship, anointing, revival in churches, and awakening in the nation.​ Desire to create cultures of discipleship, evangelism, missions, and deep engagement with Scripture.​ VIII. Illustrations of Proactive Prayer in History and Life Personal testimony: long season in temporary housing, choosing contentment and kingdom focus while trusting God's timing.​ Application of Matthew 6:33: prioritizing God's kingdom and righteousness, trusting Him to add needed things.​ Biblical example: Job praying for his friends and receiving double restoration.​ Historical examples: John Knox's burden “give me Scotland or I die” and its influence.​ David Brainerd's fervent prayer for Native Americans and resulting impact.​ William Tyndale's martyrdom for translating Scripture and the later spread of English Bibles.​ The Moravians' 100-year prayer meeting and remarkable missionary sending.​ IX. Practical Application and Invitation Challenge: move beyond “needs-only” praying to kingdom-centered, proactive prayer.​ Specific areas to pray proactively: personal walk, church, ministries, missions, national awakening, and social issues.​ Encouragement to stay for times of corporate prayer, lifting up pastors, leaders, and global work.​ Final appeal: cultivate a passion that cries, “Lord, give us souls, give us revival, use my life and this church for Your glory.”

Il y a des rencontres qui font voler en éclats toutes nos certitudes. Celle de Karine, cette pétillante suisse, en est le parfait exemple.Tout commence par la lecture d'un simple livre sur les Massaï, une curiosité anodine qui la pousse à s'envoler pour le Kenya. Et puis soudainement, sa vie bascule.Au troisième jour de son séjour, elle croise le regard d'un homme, Koitamet, un guide massaï. Son corps, dit-elle, "part alors sur la gauche". Quand il la prend dans ses bras pour la première fois, tremblant et en larmes, il murmure une phrase qui résonne encore : "Ça fait tellement longtemps que je t'attends." Une prophétie familiale, un rêve du père de Koitamet, vieux de trente ans, qui lui avait prédit une folle histoire d'amour avec une femme blanche.Aujourd'hui Karine, également mère de 3 grands garçons, partage désormais sa vie entre la Suisse et Niakara, un village massaï à quelques heures du célèbre parc Massaï Mara. Dans sa petite case en bouse de vache, sans eau courante ni électricité, elle a appris à filtrer l'eau de la rivière, à cuisiner sur un feu, à partager l'existence d'une communauté où la solitude n'existe pas. Avec Koitamet, elle a bâti un camp qui accueille aujourd'hui des voyageurs en quête d'authenticité et créé une association qui scolarise 158 enfants massaï.Entre deux continents, deux cultures que tout semble opposer, Karine n'a pourtant jamais douté. "Tout était fluide," raconte-t-elle avec sérénité.Aujourd'hui, tous ses proches ont visité ce lieu improbable où elle se sent chez elle. Ils y ont découvert une autre perception du temps, des relations humaines, de l'optimisme – "même quand les Massaï vont mal, ils vont quand même bien," sourit-elle. Un monde où l'on vit pleinement l'instant présent, ce qui peut être aussi merveilleux que frustrant quand il s'agit de gérer des projets à long terme. Dans dix ans, assure-t-elle, "je serai toujours là-bas et toujours ici." Entre un monde qui court trop vite et un autre qui prend le temps de vivre, elle a trouvé son équilibre, à cheval entre deux continents et deux conceptions de l'existence.On restera marquées longtemps par cette rencontre avec Karine et Koitamet.On espère que cet épisode résonnera longtemps en vous.Bonne écoute !Retrouvez-nous sur @beauvoyage !***Ce mois-ci le podcast est soutenu par la marque Rosemood, un atelier de papeterie personnalisé qui confectionne les plus beaux albums de photos !

Pour tenter d'enrayer ce phénomène, le ministre a annoncé une visite imminente à Moscou. Quelle est la marge de manœuvre des dirigeants africains pour lutter contre les enrôlements ? Ces révélations ne risquent-elles pas de fragiliser les relations entre la Russie et les pays concernés ?  Guerre en Ukraine : des familles détruites par les enrôlements russes   Derrière les milliers d'Africains enrôlés dans l'armée russe et les centaines de morts, des familles plongées dans le deuil et l'incompréhension se retrouvent sans soutien. Concrètement, que peuvent-elles faire pour avoir des réponses ?  Avec Lou Osborn, membre du collectif All Eyes on Wagner.

Hii leo jaridani tunaangazia Siku ya Redio Duniani likitupeleka nchini Tanzania kusikia jinsi ambavyo redio inavyochochea maendeleo ya kijamii, nchini Uganda kumsikia mkimbizi kutoka DRC, na katika ukanda wa Gaza ambako redio inaunganisha tena jamii ndani ya vifusi.Leo ni siku ya redio duniani ambayo msingi wake unatokana na kuanzishwa kwa redio ya Umoja wa Mataifa tarehe 13 Februari mwaka 1946 jijini New York, Marekani. Kwa mantiki hiyo ikiwa mwaka huu redio hiyo ya Umoja wa Mataifa inatimiza miaka 80 tumeangazia mchango wa vipingi vyake vilivyokuwa vinarushwa na redio zingine ikiwemo iliyokuwa Redio Tanzania Dar es Salaam (RTD) nchini Tanzania wakati huo. Assumpta Massoi amemulika suala hilo.Katika maeneo ya migogoro, duniani redio huwa nguzo ya utulivu na wakati mwingine daraja la kuokoa maisha. Na ndivyo ilivyokuwa kwa mkimbizi Bahati Yohane kutoka Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Congo DRC kwani kwake, redio haikuwa tu combo cha habari ilikuwa dira ya kuokoa maisha yake.Kabla ya vita vya sasa kuanza katika Ukanda wa Gaza, eneo la Palestina lilalokaliwa kimabavu na Israel, Redio ilikuwa chombo muhimu kwa umma na kwa hakika umuhimu wake haujakoma isipokuwa huduma ya matangazo ya redio ndio iliyokuwa imekoma kutokana na vituo vya redio kusambaratishwa kwa makombora, lakini sasa juhudi zinafanyika kuirejesha huduma hiyo muhimu.Mwenyeji wako ni Leah Mushi, karibu!

Officials argue that banknotes used in bouquets are often “folded, rolled, glued, stapled, pinned,” or otherwise damaged, which they say compromises their integrity, defaces the national currency, and increases the cost of replacing damaged notes.

Oli Raison, co-founder of Safarini Leadership, designs immersive leadership expeditions in Kenya that combine cultural exchange with Samburu elders, wilderness trekking, and deep reflective coaching. In this conversation, Oli challenges one of leadership's most entrenched assumptions: that resilience is about individual grit and mental toughness. Drawing on the Samburu concept of naboisho—interdependence—he shows how real resilience is built through collective support, not solo endurance. He also names the single most important question leaders need to ask when entering any new culture or organization: What assumptions am I making? The catch? Most assumptions are invisible to us because they feel like "normal." Oli also explores why many wilderness and offsite leadership experiences fail to create lasting change, and shares his solution: a three-phase transformation framework—preparation, immersion, and integration—shaped by the work of past podcast guest, Joe Pine. This episode is an invitation to question your cultural defaults, rebuild genuine human connection, and develop a healthier relationship with time—so your leadership, and your team's resilience, can actually endure. Find episode 498 on The Leadership Podcast, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts! Watch this Episode on YouTube | Oli Raison on Why Grit Isn't Enough: Rethinking Resilience in Leadership https://bit.ly/TLP-498 Key Takeaways [04:12] Oli says the leadership assumption consistently dismantled his resilience—the Samburu are resilient through interdependence called "naboisho," not grit. [07:00] Oli identifies profound learning as the importance of having a shared sense of purpose and a very strong shared set of values. [08:31] Oli responds that people have very different expectations of leadership in different cultures around the world. [10:11] Oli reveals the Samburu doesn't have words for anxiety or depression and you'll certainly never meet somebody who knows somebody who committed suicide. Oli notes loneliness is now as damaging for your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. [12:00] Oli responds I think too much comfort can be a bad thing and people get discombobulated easily if things don't go quite to plan. [14:35] Oli answers the critical question leaders should ask: what assumptions am I making? Because we don't realize we're making assumptions. [17:07] Oli explains African societies have a fundamentally different understanding of time where there's always enough time. [20:10] Oli explains the Samburu are very spiritual people connected with their ancestors and you're also connected with your descendants. [22:30] Oli says mindset adjustment happens organically from just being offline during 10-day expeditions with six days of camel-supported trekking. [24:53] Oli describes their three-phase structure: preparation, immersion, and integration with coaching sessions at two, four, and six weeks after. [29:20] Oli responds his long-term impact is about flourishing, particularly helping men dealing with anxiety, depression, and suicidality. [31:43] Oli states his aspiration: how can we create workplaces, organizations and teams that flourish? Because that's when people really do their best work. [33:45] Jan shares his realization about keeping fingers on the keyboard versus closing the laptop because the most important thing is that person in front of you. [35:56] And remember..."One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure." - William Feather Quotable Quotes "The Samburu, what makes them so resilient is this concept of interdependence, this reliance, this collective reliance on one another...if my cattle get wiped out because of a really challenging drought, I know that my neighbors are going to step in and they're going to give me some of their cattle." "Naboisho is a word in their language which kind of roughly translates to coming together or unity. And they often say things like 'we are because they are,' that we are all sort of in this together." "This is a society that doesn't have words for anxiety or depression. And you'll certainly never meet somebody who knows somebody who committed suicide...loneliness is now as damaging for your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day." "In the west, we think of time as a commodity. We think of time as something that can be saved, it can be wasted, it can be lost. And as a result of that, I feel that time is the master of us and we are not the master of time." "The Samburu always say there's always enough time because they don't think of time as this continuous thing...time occurs when events happen, it's more relational and it's more eventful." "What assumptions am I making? And this is tricky, right, because a lot of the time we don't realize we're making assumptions." "We don't need to be experts, but we do need to be detectives...what assumptions am I making that might be getting in my way?" "All of this technology is actually causing our brains to operate on a frequency that is not conducive with creative thought at all. And by being in nature, just that alone creates an environment for people to have some really powerful insights." "I think one of the things that people come away with is I really need to take more time out to just contemplate and to think. You know, think about your business, think about your life. We don't take time to think anymore. We're just reacting." "This obsession with hyper productivity is actually just, again, it's all distraction, you know, it's taking us away from just being with ourselves in the moment or being with somebody else." "In 1990, the average man had five close friends and now he has one...every minute that we spend on a device, on a phone, on a laptop, thinking that we're connecting is a minute that we're not spending really connecting with somebody."

Kenya St. Lôt is a birth and postpartum doula honoring her African midwife ancestry. Together, they dismantle birth fears by reframing pain as a vital portal to empowerment, connection, and ancestral wisdom in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.In this episode, you'll learn about:How pain forges unbreakable bonds with your baby, turning contractions into intuitive cues that guide positioning and progress for peaceful, even orgasmic births.Dismantling medical fears through education on epidurals, Pitocin, and interventions, using code words to reclaim choice in hospitals, birth centers, or home.Partner care as the grounded "tree" during labor—breathing together, affirming power, and planning conscious parenting to ease postpartum shifts.Ancestral rituals like 40-day rest, closing of the bones with rebozo, and yoni steaming to heal the postpartum portal and prevent energy depletion.Rebuilding the village: Grief in pregnancy, fear as a compass, and intuitive body trust to birth without trauma, honoring African lineage wisdom.Golden Nuggets From This Episode:✨ “Your boundaries, what you need, how you wanna give birth — because that is your birth. It's not the doctor's birth, it's not other people's experience, it's you and your baby.”✨ ”Birth requires safety and ownership; when you feel safe, your body can do what it was designed to do.✨ “If we feel fearful, our body is not going to relax. It will go into adrenaline and not let you dilate, and that's when contraction goes against your baby coming out — because fear tells the body it's not safe, and birth only flows where safety is felt.”✨ “Pain is a really important thing when you're giving birth.”✨ “When the partner has fears, it's valid.”✨ “We don't have the village anymore. One of the most ancestral and easy things is to bring back the village — because birth and motherhood were never meant to be carried alone.”✨ “Being pregnant and giving birth is temporary. Postpartum is for life. The way that you are cared for can impact the rest of your motherhood and your connection with your baby and your partner.”✨ “Having the uncomfortable conversations before conceiving is really important.”Connect More with Kenya:IG: https://www.instagram.com/kenyasaintlot/More Lexy from Heart Snuggles:Soft Girl Season {Instant Access Course}: https://lovelounge.iamlexydavis.com/offers/GCowWYXQEmail: lexy@alivetoenjoy.comDating + Relationship Coaching - https://iamlexydavis.com/Instagram: Alivetoenjoy & Heart SnugglesTimestamps from episode:04:16 Kenya's Journey into Birth and Pregnancy07:15 Understanding the Complexities of Pregnancy and Birth10:28 Empowering Women Through Education and Choices13:28 The Importance of Trust and Intuition in Birth15:28 Navigating Hospital Births and Medical Interventions21:12 The Power of Confidence and Overcoming Fear in Birth25:06 Signs of Labor and Code Words26:35 Navigating Complications During Birth27:56 The Beauty of Birth and Partner Support30:58 Partner Involvement and Postpartum Care38:36 Ancient Traditions and Postpartum Rituals41:14 The Importance of Community and Village Support43:22 Final Thoughts and Romantic Memories48:28 Conclusion and Heart Snuggles

Vi åker till Kenya på 1950-talet och följer det uppror som rasade mot britterna där. Detta under en tid då hittills inga kolonier i afrikanska subsahara ännu frigjorts, och britterna var inte riktigt inställda på att det var dags för något sånt. Det blir blodigt. Dessutom hamnar vi hos historikernas hantering av det hela i efterhand, vad visste man egentligen i England under efterkrigstiden om alla metoderna för att slå ner upproret, och vad visste man om lägren? Vem som egentligen forskat fram vad blir i sig en stötesten när en amerikanska dyker in på scenen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode was recorded "live" from the C. Dorman cupping lab while Tim was in Kenya in January in order to taste and select coffees for purchasing. Like many of our listeners and followers already know, we prefer to work directly with farmers over years in order to improve the quality of their coffees and their farms.  Due to how the Kenyan coffee industry is organised, it is the only origin we buy from where we do not have a direct relationship with a single farmer.   This is because the majority of the best coffees are coming from smallholder farmers who sell their coffee cherries to co-operatives, where the coffees are bulked together for processing and drying. Buying coffees in Kenya is therefore a bit different to what we are used to and Tim visits Kenya on an annual basis in order to taste through hundreds of coffee samples to make his selection every year.  Listen in on Tim's thoughts around Kenyan coffee quality and how he approaches buying coffees in Kenya. 

In this episode, we sit down with Chepchirchir Tirop, a BU historian of Africa, about her journey into African studies and what brought her to campus. She reflects on her research on the Indian diaspora in Kenya, how memory and identity shaped post-independence nation-building, and her dissertation on the political role of athletics in Kenya from 1945 to 2000. This conversation highlights her passion for teaching and what students can expect from her Modern Africa course. She concludes by offering advice to students interested in African history and globally engaged research!

What if the most powerful segment in travel has been hiding in plain sight for decades?Tourpreneur's Mitch Bach talks with Carolyn Ray, CEO of Journey Woman, about her transformation from corporate executive to full-time traveler and advocate for the 50+ woman traveler—a demographic that represents half the world's population yet remains largely invisible to the travel industry.After a life-changing trip to Kenya at age 50, Carolyn sold everything and reinvented herself, eventually acquiring Journey Woman in 2019 and transforming it from a 1990s-era newsletter into a multifaceted platform that includes research, advocacy, a women's travel directory, and speakers bureau.Through her groundbreaking "Invisible No More" research, Carolyn became the first to quantify this market segment, revealing that operators who only market destinations are "doing half the job" because 50+ women travelers are looking for purposeful, intentional experiences beyond simple safety assurances.She challenges the industry's obsession paid media and influencer marketing, and urges women entrepreneurs to reject outdated rules, trust their intuition, and put themselves unapologetically in the spotlight—embodying her company's core value to "make your own rules."The "Invisible No More" studyArticle mentioned: Is it safe to travel to the US right now?The new Women's Travel Directory

This isn't a conversation about fixtures or specifications—it's a deep dive into the forces that shape how we design, who we design for, and why understanding people is the single most important skill a designer can have.Sid walksreveals why uniformity is the death of design, why a 70-year-old client and a 25-year-old client want completely different things from their lighting (even if they live in the same city), and why the most important part of any project isn't the rendering—it's the person-to-person connection that makes everything else possible.But this conversation goes deeper. It's about the tension between creative vision and client expectation, the exhausting reality of juggling five different cultural contexts in a single day, and why lighting design—despite all its challenges—remains one of the most rewarding professions for those willing to treat it like the marathon it is. Cedar shares why he pushes the envelope on every project, why lighting is the makeup that keeps the perfect marriage of architecture and culture going, and why one person's sparkle is always another person's glare.

"I'm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will."This aphorism from political philosopher and journalist Antonio Gramsci is one of our guest Neha Sanghrajka's favorite quotes. When you learn her story, you'll understand why. A Kenyan born lawyer, Sanghrajka spent almost a decade in Mozambique mediating a peace process between the country's president and a guerrilla leader stationed on a remote mountaintop. Sanghrajka and her colleague, Swiss Ambassador Mirko Manzoni, travelled back and forth between the capital of Maputo and the militant headquarters in the remote Garongosa Mountains 45 times – a journey of over 1000 km each way. And when she wasn't hoofing it up the mountain, Sanghrajka spent many hours just listening to local people, without expectation. The peacebuilders walked a delicate line. Knowing that previous processes had failed when they were over-exposed to the media, they protected the negotiations from scrutiny. At the same time, they engaged journalists and civil society with the public implementation of the process. Neha's story presents a fascinating example of how polarized groups can actually buy into a process of reconciliation, despite major setbacks along the way; and how journalists can report responsibly and critically, while still supporting the aspiration of peace. Before moving to Mozambique, Neha Sanghrajka worked with former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan during the 2007 election crisis in Kenya and helped facilitate election reform there. She's now a fellow at the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs at Harvard University.Learn more about Neha SanghrajkaRead Sanghrajka and Mirko Manzoni's report on the peace process in MozambiqueVisit the Maputo Accord website ABOUT THE SHOW The Making Peace Visible podcast is hosted by Jamil Simon and produced by Andrea Muraskin.

Episode Summary:In this episode of Explaining History, Nick continues his exploration of Eric Hobsbawm's seminal work, The Age of Extremes.We focus on the first part of Hobsbawm's "historical triptych"—the Age of Catastrophe (1914–1945). Nick argues that this period was essentially a European Civil War, where the violent techniques of imperialism—gas, machine guns, and racial extermination—boomeranged back onto the continent itself.From the collapse of the liberal order in 1914 to the rise of totalitarian regimes in the 1930s, we examine how the certainties of the 19th century were shattered. We also critique Hobsbawm's Eurocentric view, asking: Was the post-war "Golden Age" truly golden for the colonized peoples of Vietnam, Kenya, or Algeria? Or was the Second World War merely the moment when the violence of empire finally came home?Plus: A final call for history students! Our Russian Revolution Masterclass is on Sunday, January 25th.

More than 3500 athletes from 93 countries will be competing for 195 medals at the Milan-Cortina Games. Three countries will be making their Winter Olympic debuts at the 2026 Games, the African nations of Benin and Guinea Bissau along with the United Arab Emirates. But with the established winter sport nations such as Norway, the United States of America, Canada and Germany looking to dominate the medal table once again, how hard is it for new countries to compete on the world stage?Eight African nations will be represented this time with Eritrea, Kenya, Madagascar, Morocco, Nigeria and South Africa along with the two debutants taking part. South Africa is sending its largest ever team with five athletes, but over six decades since an African nation made its Winter Olympics debut, the continent's first medal remains elusive.Matt Smith only took up the sport three years ago and is now going to be South Africa's sole cross-country skier in the upcoming games. He tells Lee James why he hopes his inclusion can inspire generations to come, and why he's been nicknamed the 'Snowbok'. Simidele Adeagbo became the first Nigerian to compete at the Winter Olympics in 2018 and was the first black female Olympian in the sport of Skeleton. She says with a more than a billion people on the African continent it's important its athletes are proportionately represented when it comes to the Winter Olympics.Every Monday to Friday, More than the Score tells stories beyond the scoreline from all over the world of sport.
