Get ready for a uniquely enlightening and empowering episode! Today, we embark on a mind-expanding journey through menstruation and micro-dosing! If you're wondering how these two worlds collide, you will soon understand because we have an expert joining us! Leslie Draffin is a passionate advocate for activating the divine feminine within women! She joins me to unravel the mysteries of hormonal changes in women, and shed light on what unfolds as we age and begin paying attention to our bodies. But that's not all! With her extensive studies into maternal mental health, Leslie has become a go-to resource for the increasingly popular practice of micro-dosing. As a menstrual cycle coach and proponent of cyclical living, Leslie empowers women to embrace their innate power through intentional practices like micro-dosing, psychedelic use, and feminine embodiment. Her mission is to permit people to step fully into their magnificence and recognize the sacredness that resides within every one of us. Prepare to be inspired as Leslie guides us on a transformative journey towards self-empowerment and embracing the sacred within ourselves! Leslie's menstrual coaching journey Leslie's journey into menstrual cycle coaching stemmed from a profound desire to connect with her body. She was raised in a religious household where talk of menstruation was taboo, and she felt disconnected and isolated. When she experienced her own menstrual cycle, she finally understood the cyclical nature of womanhood. In 2019, Leslie had a spiritual awakening. It prompted her to embrace her authentic femininity by discontinuing the pill after years of use. She embarked on a transformative path but continued facing difficulties such as irregular periods, hair loss, and cystic acne. Through listening to Gemma Lee's podcast, she found solace and recognized the significance of menstrual cycle coaching. In 2021, after reclaiming her cycle and developing a deeper connection with her body, she joined a coaching program. Now, as an educator and coach, she is on a mission to empower others by dispelling misconceptions about menstrual cycles and uncovering the incredible power within each unique cycle. Leslie's coaching services There are currently three options available through Leslie's coaching services. The first focuses solely on menstrual cycle work, offering support and guidance in understanding and embracing the natural rhythms of the cycle. The second option centers around integration and support for micro-dosing or general psychedelic use. The third option, the cyclical micro-dosing protocol, is Leslie's newest creation and her most exciting endeavor. This unique protocol combines the principles of well-known micro-dosing protocols with a cyclical twist, aiming to use plant medicine to address cycle-related issues and promote overall well-being throughout the month. By dividing the cycle into two halves and adjusting the frequency of micro-dosing accordingly, the protocol seeks to address challenges associated with PMS and PMDD. Leslie is thrilled to guide individuals through this transformative journey, and she is currently offering a 10-week group integration program during the summer, providing support in cyclical micro-dosing, reconnecting with the cycle, and embracing the divine feminine. It represents a culmination of her passion and expertise in these areas. Leslie's Holy Trinity The combination of micro-dosing, cyclical living, and womb work forms what Leslie calls her Holy Trinity. Those three elements work together to activate the authentic self. By peeling away layers through micro-dosing, individuals gain a deeper understanding of their true nature. Cyclical living and aligning with the natural rhythms of the menstrual cycle will further support this process. Womb work and reconnection also play a crucial role in this transformative journey. Whether someone is new to these concepts or familiar with micro-dosing, Leslie's Holy Trinity offers a magical path of self-discovery and self-knowledge. Microdosing Microdosing impacts the brain profoundly by quieting negative thought loops and creating space for new neural pathways and patterns to emerge. When micro-dosing, it is helpful to have some support because working with someone who can hold space, encourage, and engage in meaningful discussions can facilitate deeper and more impactful experiences than one would have when going through the process alone. Creating a healthy cycle Resting and doing less during your period is crucial for a healthy cycle. Pushing yourself too hard in the second half of your cycle can lead to fat gain and muscle loss due to hormonal changes. Instead of intense workouts, prioritize rest and take naps during your period. Another crucial step is to eat enough food, as restrictive diets can negatively impact your cycle. Permitting yourself to eat when you bleed is essential. Even small adjustments like going to bed earlier, sleeping in, or doing a digital detox can make a difference. Avoid excessive screen time during your period to enhance sleep hygiene and tap into your heightened intuitive abilities. Consider the content you consume, including social media and news, as it can influence your subconscious during this time. It is essential to approach cyclical living with small, sustainable steps rather than overwhelming yourself with drastic changes. Leslie's 10-week Cyclical Microdosing Journey Doors open on the 1st of May for Leslie's 10-week journey called Cyclical Microdosing, which focuses on reconnecting with the cycle, womb, and divine feminine. The program consists of 10 live calls, each lasting 75 minutes, supplemented by audio and video lessons. Participants will also have access to a Signal chat for community connection. The aim is to create a sacred sisterhood where individuals can feel safe, vulnerable, and supported in their healing journey within a circle of women. The program draws inspiration from historical practices like Red tents, where menstruating individuals would come together to celebrate the sacredness of their bleeding. The intention is to cultivate a space for deep learning and unlearning, empowering participants to overcome obstacles and embrace their true potential. What am I noticing? This week, I want to share my thoughts on two TV shows that captured my attention. The first is Queen Charlotte, a spin-off from the popular series Bridgerton. It offers a unique perspective by intertwining the Bridgerton era with historical context, shedding light on the characters' origins and providing further depth to the storyline. Unlike the steamy nature of the first two seasons, Queen Charlotte approaches the narrative from a woman's perspective, resulting in scenes that are hilariously entertaining and heartbreakingly poignant. Shonda Rhimes masterfully addresses themes of misogyny and women's work, creating a well-executed and captivating show that Bridgerton fans will undoubtedly adore. The second show I want to discuss is The Diplomat, starring Keri Russell. It has been compared with The West Wing, a show my husband and many others loved. While I appreciated The West Wing, I found The Diplomat even more enjoyable! It features quick dialogue, rich character development, and engaging plotlines. The fast pace and intriguing storyline make the show an excellent choice for couples with different viewing preferences. It strikes a balance between suspense and character-driven narratives, showcasing the complexity of the relationship between Keri Russell's character and her partner, a former diplomat. Both Queen Charlotte and The Diplomat can be found on Netflix. I hope you find these shows as captivating as I did. Links and resources Leslie's website Reinvention Mom

On stage alone for two hours, her performance has already sparked two sell out runs in London and Manchester, and now she's back in the West End for a month. Maureen joins Anita live in the Woman's Hour studio. Blended families are created for all sorts of reasons. Because of break-ups or the death of a parent, through fostering or adoption. Kate Ferdinand married the former footballer Rio Ferdinand in 2019, four years after his first wife Rebecca and mother of their three children, had died. Now Kate has written How to Build a Family, the book she wished she'd had when she started out being a step mum. Woman's Hour Power List Leader Rimla Akhtar joins Anita to talk about her ground-breaking work in the world of women's sport. She was ranked by Forbes and The Independent as one of the most powerful women in international sports, and was awarded an OBE in 2021 for her contribution to diversity and equality in sport. What is it really like to be a female ambassador? A new Netflix show, The Diplomat, has got people talking about the role. It stars American actress, Keri Russell, as a new US ambassador to the UK, parachuted into the role in the midst of a crisis. It debuted at No 1 on Netflix's weekly global Top 10 list. So, we wanted to know - is the life of a real diplomat as exciting? What do they get up to? We are joined by former ambassadors Jules Chappell and Laura Clarke to find out.
We will make every possible effort to go deep, staying away from hackneyed talking points. If you hear one, call us out on it! Let's admit to all the lies we all swallow…. How the continuing thirst for click bait and fame has lowered our standards to previously unthinkable low levels of honesty. Wait, you think it's only other people who are brainwashed? Zip always looks on the bright side of life. After years of paying in, he's finally costing Medicare real money. So cool! Donald found liable for sexual assault that happened we're not sure when, and ordered to pay millions. Are we starting to see enforcement of laws on the rich and powerful? Don't bet too much on it. Look for a settlement while it's on appeal. Billionaires only get speeding tickets. If West Wing and Homeland had a baby it would be this new Netflix series called “The Diplomat”. It stars Keri Russell. Listening to the audio on Podcast Service?

Film and TV reviewer Tamar Munch joins Kathryn to talk about Pathfinders (TVNZ), a local series that looks at Maori leaders who were raised through the challenging years where te reo Maori was shunned. She'll also talk about Netflix's The Diplomat starring Keri Russell as the newly-appointed US Ambassador to the UK and the turbulent relationship to a political star. And A Small Light (Disney) looks at the story of Miep Gies, the Dutch woman who risked her life to shelter Anne Frank's family during World War II.
Once again, we're arrived at the season finale. Will Ilan take his second crown, or will Keegan or Abhi upset the returning champion? To answer that, we'll need to start at the beginning, so it makes sense that we start round one with a game all about TV and movie prequels, put through the lens of a certain iconic butler. Then, it's the big game in round two where we'll identify not only some TV theme songs, but the other works of the iconic musicians responsible for them. And course, a lightning round!

This week's Nose traded one fatted goose for ten radishes. The Diplomat is an eight-episode political thriller romantic-comedy (sort of?) Netflix limited series created by Debora Cahn. It stars Keri Russell as the title character and Rufus Sewell as her husband, who is also a diplomat, though a somewhat less diplomatic diplomat. Here's Netflix's logline: “In the midst of an international crisis, a career diplomat lands in a high-profile job she's unsuited for, with tectonic implications for her marriage and her political future.” The Diplomat is currently No. 2 in TV Shows Today on Netflix. And: Baby J is John Mulaney's fifth comedy special, his fourth for Netflix, and his fourth standup special. It's also his first special since his divorce, his time in rehab, and the birth of his son. As Mulaney says early on in Baby J, he has “kind of a different vibe now.” Baby J is currently No. 10 in TV Shows Today on Netflix.

"First of all, how desperate are all of us for lightness and optimism and hope, and a sense of possibility in the people who are navigating and steering world affairs? That was really important to me to bring that in. And I think that I see all really dramatic moments as kind of streaked-through with a bit of the absurd. Those are always the moments that stand out to me. If you're not just at a funeral, but you're at a funeral where somebody dropped their purse, and there's a now a thousand things on the floor and a lot of people trying to pretend that there aren't. Those moments, for me, are the moments where our humanity really kind of shows through the cracks. And I was interested in this world that's so much about a facade and so manicured and presentational and looking at those like tragically human moments that pop up right in the middle of all of that. The juxtaposition between those two things, I find to be delightful."Debora Cahn is the Emmy-nominated showrunner and executive producer of Netflix's The Diplomat, a political thriller series starring Keri Russell and Rufus Sewell.

In the new Netflix drama, The Diplomat, Keri Russell plays an ambassador who's thrust into an international incident with massive stakes. She's also sorting through a tumultuous marriage with her husband, a hotshot veteran diplomat (Rufus Sewell). The series combines the tension of Homeland with the administrative drama of The West Wing – which makes sense, given that The Diplomat's creator worked on both shows.

This week we are watching the movie-turned-Broadway-musical: Waitress! And if we happen to call it "The Waitress" at any point in the episode, we're sorry. Really feels like there should be a "the". Waitress stars Keri Russell, Nathan Fillion and Jeremy Sisto. On the verge of leaving her abusive marriage, Jenna discovers she's pregnant. Uh oh. Tune in today to hear our thoughts on this romantic dramedy. At the time of recording you could stream this movie on YouTube or rent it!

Characterizing Keri Russell's new show ‘The Diplomat' (Netflix, April 20) is difficult, but that's part of its charm. “The drama of politics, the absurdity of that kind of politics, the pomp and circumstance mixed in with a complicated marriage,” Russell told Newsweek's H. Alan Scott. Sounds intense, but in fact “it's a bit saucy.” Russell plays Kate Wyler, a career diplomat “plucked from the Middle East to go and host tea parties and talk to stylists” as the new U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom amid an international crisis. The tone of the show blends high-stakes drama with the humor of being a fish out of water, which is “part of the joke and the fun.” The seamless blend in tone is credited to the show's creator, Debora Cahn. “I don't think she could write something that is super serious without a joke in it. That's just the nature of who she is.” Russell, who recently starred in ‘Cocaine Bear,' is intentionally focusing on the lighter fare. “The world is so hard, at least since COVID. I just feel like I've been way more drawn to the lighter stuff, something brighter. Because the world is crazy town right now.” Visit Newsweek.com to learn more about the podcasts we offer and to catch up on the latest news.

This week, Andrew and Scotty take a break to powder their noses as they discuss the 2023 movie, "Cocaine Bear". It's the true story of a bear who eats a lot of cocaine dropped from a drug smuggling plane. In reality, the bear died, but in this version of the story, she becomes addicted to the drug, and goes on a rampage, killing anyone who gets in her way. "Cocaine Bear" was directed by Elizabeth Banks and stars Keri Russell, Ray Liotta, Alden Eihrenreich, O'Shea Jackson Jr., and many more. As always, stay tuned to the end of the episode to hear what Scotty chose for their next movie!Follow us on social media:Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/396586601815924Twitter - https://twitter.com/funwhorrorInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/fun_with_horror_podcast/FWH + Fangoria collab:For 20% off at the Fango Shop, just enter FUN_WITH_HORROR_PODCAST at checkout!

We love us some adaptations, so we start round one by quizzing our returning players Ilan, Gal, and Mike about book-to-screen adaptations that changed their titles.

We've joked about Keri Russell's limited role in Mission Impossible III long enough that it's only fair to bring one of her starring roles to the show. Critics went ga-ga for WAITRESS, an indie darling that romanticizes small-town infidelity and fetishizes pie-making, so that makes it the perfect target for The Contrarians' gimmick!

A movie called Cocaine Bear needs two things: a bear, and some cocaine. Both are abundant in the new action comedy about a large quantity of cocaine that accidentally winds up deep in the Georgia forest. And who eats it? That's right: a bear. The movie was directed by Elizabeth Banks, and the cast includes Keri Russell, Ray Liotta, Margo Martindale, and O'Shea Jackson Jr.
