Wir haben im Archiv gegraben und veröffentlichen (endlich) das Panel von Mario, Tina, Keshia und Chris zum Thema Improvisation im Pen & Paper Rollenspiel. Stattgefunden hat die Diskussion im Rahmen der 3W6 Online Convention 2024.
In episode 96 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe and Keshia sit down with Dr. Cameron Chesnut to explore the nuanced world of cosmetic procedures, aging, and beauty culture. Together, they unpack the increasing use of Botox and fillers, particularly in Australia, which holds the highest per capita use globally. Dr. Cameron Chesnut is the facial plastic surgeon for the world's high-performers. He is truly on another level. People from all corners of the globe seek his next-level results—achieving astonishing outcomes through minimally invasive procedures that leave patients looking natural, rejuvenated, and seemingly untouched. He's renowned for his progressive use of regenerative medicine and cutting-edge postoperative recovery techniques, as well as his meticulous personal preparation for performance readiness. Dr. Chesnut explains how these procedures work on a physiological level—Botox, by paralyzing facial muscles to reduce wrinkles, and fillers by restoring volume. However, he cautions that fillers don't simply “dissolve” as many believe. They can migrate over time, sometimes altering a person's appearance in unexpected ways. These shifts can create a disconnect between how someone looks and how they feel inside, especially as aging brings about deeper psychological reflections and, often, fear. The conversation highlights how beauty standards are constantly shaped by cultural and societal norms. We often associate youth with beauty and vitality, which fuels the desire to maintain a youthful appearance. But this comes at a cost. Dr. Chesnut discusses how immobilizing facial muscles can hinder nonverbal communication, affecting everything from emotional connection to child development. Our faces play a critical role in expressing emotion—and when expression is lost, so too is a piece of our humanity. Rather than relying solely on injectables, Dr. Chesnut advocates for a more regenerative, holistic approach to aging. He shares insights into therapies like red light treatment and the use of vitamin A derivatives, which support the skin's natural collagen and elastin production. Nutrition, lifestyle, and a deeper understanding of the emotional and psychological aspects of aging also play a vital role in preserving both health and appearance. Ultimately, this conversation challenges us to think critically about the beauty industry's influence, the identity shifts that come with cosmetic intervention, and the deeper reasons behind why we seek to change the way we look. Dr. Chesnut encourages a more conscious and informed path forward—one that honors both our biology and our emotional well-being.

In episode 94 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe and Keshia chat with comedy gal Lisa Spencer. We have a lively and thought-provoking conversation about the power of comedy to tackle controversial and complex issues. We explore how humor helps us cope with difficult topics, challenge societal norms, and spark meaningful conversations. This discussion dives into the process of creating parodies and how research plays a key role in making comedy both clever and relatable. This conversation also turns to the rise of platforms like OnlyFans, looking at the reality behind its business model. We break down the financial pressures creators face, the escalating nature of explicit content, and the long-term impact of sharing personal material online. Reflecting on how social media shapes choices, the importance of accountability, and how society responds to offense and criticism. Another highlight of the episode is the recent wombat controversy, which opens up a broader discussion about animal rights, cultural awareness, and the way comedy can be used to approach serious topics. Lisa shares her personal journey into stand-up comedy, and the hosts talk about how performing and even failing on stage offers a space for growth and exploration. Through it all, our conversation weaves together themes of humor, media influence, public outrage, and the divide between urban and rural perspectives. At its core, this episode is about the importance of laughter, the courage to speak honestly, and the power of comedy to open up hard conversations in a world full of noise.

In episode 93 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe and Keshia speak with Stuart James Fischbein, MD was Board Certified in 1989 by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and became a Fellow of the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology. In this episode, we open up a raw and deeply layered conversation about abortion—one that goes beyond headlines and politics, and into the personal, emotional, and medical realities that so many women face. We explore what actually happens during abortion procedures, the resilience of the female body (especially the uterus), and how hormonal shifts post-abortion can affect women both physically and emotionally. This is a space where we unpack the many myths and misunderstandings that surround abortion, from questions about fertility and medical necessity to the often-overlooked emotional aftermath. We talk about the importance of truly informed consent, the variability in procedure quality depending on the provider, and why so many women walk away from these experiences feeling blindsided. The conversation also touches on contraception—what works, what doesn't, and why education around it still has such a long way to go. We dive into the ethical grey zones, especially in life-threatening scenarios, and even explore the unique dilemmas that come up in cases involving surrogacy. There's no denying that abortion is a deeply personal and often polarizing topic. But here, we try to approach it with honesty and compassion, creating space for complexity rather than soundbites. We also consider the role of healthcare providers, the pressures they face under certain laws, and the broader societal responsibilities when it comes to preventing unwanted pregnancies. Whether you're looking to better understand reproductive health or just want to hear a thoughtful, nuanced take on a topic that touches so many lives, this conversation is an open-hearted place to begin.

In episode 91 of The Road to Wisdom podcast, Chloe & Keshia speak with "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus" Author, John Gray. This is a 2 part series , please go back to part one if you haven't already! We invited John on for a second time to discuss what it takes to deepen our connection in partnership. Relationships are complex, shaped by communication, emotional needs, and cultural expectations. In this episode, we explore why relationships break down, the impact of unresolved complaints, and how emotional availability—or the lack of it—affects connection. We discuss how cultural influences and evolving gender roles shape modern relationships, often creating tension between tradition and personal fulfillment. Safety, both emotional and physical, is essential for trust and intimacy, while community support can make or break a partnership. The conversation shifts to monogamy, emotional fulfillment, and the role of intimacy in long-term commitment. Communication styles often differ between men and women, leading to misunderstandings that fuel conflict. We break down how to navigate disagreements effectively and whether silence is a tool for healing or a sign of disconnection. Loved what you heard in this episode? Your support means the world.

In episode 90 of The Road to Wisdom podcast, Chloe & Keshia speak with "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus" Author, John Gray. We invited John on for a second time to discuss what it takes to deepen our connection in partnership. Relationships are complex, shaped by communication, emotional needs, and cultural expectations. In this episode, we explore why relationships break down, the impact of unresolved complaints, and how emotional availability—or the lack of it—affects connection. We discuss how cultural influences and evolving gender roles shape modern relationships, often creating tension between tradition and personal fulfillment. Safety, both emotional and physical, is essential for trust and intimacy, while community support can make or break a partnership. The conversation shifts to monogamy, emotional fulfillment, and the role of intimacy in long-term commitment.

In this episode of CHRISTIANISH Podcast, Dating Coach and Hypnotherapist Keshia Rice breaks down what it really means to decenter men. While social media is full of talk about rejecting relationships, many women are still unknowingly making men the center of their lives. Keshia explains why true decentering isn't about avoiding love—it's about making yourself the priority and only allowing relationships that align with your values. Keshia shares: ✨ The one question you need to ask yourself to stop chasing relationships ✨ How unhealed wounds (validation, security, father figures) shape your dating patterns ✨ Why balancing your masculine and feminine energy changes everything ✨ The key to attracting a healthy, fulfilling relationship—without settling When you give yourself what you've been seeking, love becomes a choice, not a necessity.

In episode 89 of The Road to Wisdom podcast, Chloe & Keshia speak with demographer and author Paul Morland about the pressing issue of declining birth rates and the far-reaching implications for society. Paul highlights the economic and social consequences of low fertility, using Japan as a case study to illustrate how an aging population can lead to labor shortages, increased tax burdens, and a decline in innovation. The conversation also delves into the environmental concerns often associated with population growth, challenging common misconceptions about overpopulation. Paul emphasizes the financial pressures that deter many families from having more children and argues that wealthier societies paradoxically experience lower birth rates. He advocates for a fundamental shift in societal priorities, calling for stronger government support, cultural changes, and a reevaluation of education and career structures to better accommodate family life. Beyond the economic and logistical challenges, we explore the emotional and societal implications of anti-natalist perspectives. He makes a compelling case for a more pro-natalist approach—one that not only acknowledges the challenges of raising children but also celebrates the profound joys and long-term societal benefits of parenthood. Ultimately, the discussion underscores the urgent need to support family growth as a cornerstone of a sustainable future. Without children, economies will stagnate, innovation will decline, and societies will struggle to thrive. Paul argues that housing affordability, tax incentives, and community support must become priorities to help young people start and sustain families. Shifting the narrative around family life from one of burden to one of fulfillment is essential in countering anti-natalist sentiments and ensuring a thriving future for generations to come.

In Episode 87 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast, Chloe and Keshia have a deeply moving conversation with Lucette Romy as she courageously shares the story of her pregnancy, birth, and the unimaginable loss of her baby, Dash Ra, just hours after he entered the world. Lucette reflects on her pregnancy—one that was filled with ease and trust in her body—and explains her decision to free birth at home, supported by a birth keeper rather than a hospital setting. She takes us through her labor, the intensity and triumph of birth, and the moments that followed, leading to the heartbreaking loss of her and her partner Tom's baby boy.

Rethinking the Proverbs 31 Woman: More Than Just a Wife and Mother One of Keshia's favorite scriptures is also one of her least favorites—Proverbs 31. It's a beautiful passage about a woman of faith, but too often, it's only used to define women by their roles as wives and mothers. In this episode of CHRISTIAN-ISH Podcast, Dating Coach and Hypnotherapist Keshia Rice shared a past workshop where she broke down the Proverbs 31 woman in a fresh way. She's not just a wife—she's a businesswoman, a leader, and a woman of strength.

In episode 85 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe & Keshia invite the amazing Alison Armstrong to explore the intricate dynamics of modern relationships, drawing insights from Alison's transformative work and one of her many books *The Queen's Code*. They discuss the differences between masculine and feminine energies, the societal consequences of emasculation, and the ways in which behaviors modeled in relationships can shape healthier interactions. Alison emphasizes the need for understanding and empathy as the foundation for meaningful connections, particularly in navigating the complexities of attraction, communication, and intimacy. A central theme of the discussion is the importance of embracing the unique qualities of both genders. Alison highlights how women can reconnect with their femininity and how recognizing men's strengths fosters harmony and balance. They delve into the societal shifts that have blurred traditional roles, pointing out that the fight for equality has sometimes led to misunderstandings and friction in relationships. Men and women are naturally complementary, and appreciating these differences can pave the way for deeper emotional connections and mutual respect. The conversation also examines the challenges of modern relationships, where traditional courtship dynamics have often been replaced by less intentional interactions. Alison explains how storytelling can effectively convey lessons about gender dynamics and the ways emotional and physical attraction contribute to intimacy. Sex, as she notes, is not just a physical act but a deeply emotional experience that can strengthen bonds when approached with intention and understanding. Listening and communication are emphasized as vital tools for connection, as is the need for awareness of how societal conditioning may influence behaviors. Women, for instance, may reject help from men due to a strong sense of independence, while men naturally seek to provide and protect in relationships. Alison also touches on how motherhood shifts perspectives on gender roles, adding another layer to the complexities of partnership. Ultimately, the conversation underscores the transformative power of empathy, awareness, and mutual growth in relationships. By understanding the interplay between masculine and feminine energies and addressing the emotional and physical aspects of attraction, couples can cultivate deeper intimacy and forge lasting, fulfilling partnerships.

In episode 85 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe & Keshia invite the amazing Alison Armstrong to explore the intricate dynamics of modern relationships, drawing insights from Alison's transformative work and one of her many books *The Queen's Code*. They discuss the differences between masculine and feminine energies, the societal consequences of emasculation, and the ways in which behaviors modeled in relationships can shape healthier interactions. Alison emphasizes the need for understanding and empathy as the foundation for meaningful connections, particularly in navigating the complexities of attraction, communication, and intimacy. A central theme of the discussion is the importance of embracing the unique qualities of both genders. Alison highlights how women can reconnect with their femininity and how recognizing men's strengths fosters harmony and balance. They delve into the societal shifts that have blurred traditional roles, pointing out that the fight for equality has sometimes led to misunderstandings and friction in relationships. Men and women are naturally complementary, and appreciating these differences can pave the way for deeper emotional connections and mutual respect. The conversation also examines the challenges of modern relationships, where traditional courtship dynamics have often been replaced by less intentional interactions. Alison explains how storytelling can effectively convey lessons about gender dynamics and the ways emotional and physical attraction contribute to intimacy. Sex, as she notes, is not just a physical act but a deeply emotional experience that can strengthen bonds when approached with intention and understanding. Listening and communication are emphasized as vital tools for connection, as is the need for awareness of how societal conditioning may influence behaviors. Women, for instance, may reject help from men due to a strong sense of independence, while men naturally seek to provide and protect in relationships. Alison also touches on how motherhood shifts perspectives on gender roles, adding another layer to the complexities of partnership. Ultimately, the conversation underscores the transformative power of empathy, awareness, and mutual growth in relationships. By understanding the interplay between masculine and feminine energies and addressing the emotional and physical aspects of attraction, couples can cultivate deeper intimacy and forge lasting, fulfilling partnerships.

In episode 84 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe & Keshia speak to Author Public Speaker & researcher Dr Paige Williams. We invited Paige on after coming across her book "Becoming Anti-Fragile". Anti-fragility is about embracing challenges as opportunities to grow stronger. Dr. Paige Williams explains how small, everyday struggles can build our resilience over time. These "paper cuts" might feel overwhelming in the moment, but they prepare us to handle larger disruptions with greater ease. Self-compassion is a vital part of parenting. Many parents feel the weight of societal pressures and expectations, leading to feelings of inadequacy or anxiety. Dr. Williams emphasizes the importance of being kind to ourselves and recognizing that parenting is a journey of learning and growth. By focusing on our choices and reconnecting with what truly matters, we can navigate this journey with greater confidence and intentionality. Parenting is not meant to be done alone. Collective support plays a crucial role in building resilience for both parents and children. Dr. Williams encourages creating a strong community where parents can share their challenges and support one another. Practical tools like the circles of control can also help parents focus on what they can influence, reducing overwhelm and fostering a sense of control. Flexibility is essential when navigating the gap between expectations and reality. Holding expectations loosely allows parents to adapt to the unpredictability of family life without unnecessary stress. At the same time, drawing on intergenerational wisdom can provide valuable guidance, blending the lessons of the past with the demands of modern parenting. Dr. Williams highlights the importance of breaking harmful societal norms, such as the "good girl syndrome," which affects both boys and girls. By challenging these stereotypes and modeling healthy behaviors, parents can lead their children toward a more resilient and empowered future. Parenting is a form of leadership, requiring boundaries, intentionality, and a commitment to raising emotionally healthy individuals. In essence, this conversation reminds us that while parenting can feel overwhelming at times, it also offers countless opportunities for personal growth, connection, and transformation. By embracing these principles, parents can not only navigate the challenges of today but also shape a stronger, more resilient next generation.

In episode 83 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast Chloe & Keshia discuss a polarising, and at times difficulty to tackle, topic: Abortion. The aim is to shine a light on the current situation taking place in Australia that we, personally, didn't know anything about. Dr. Joanna Howe who courageously speaks on failed abortions and the side of abortion many of us do not know about, was introduced to us and has made a huge impact on us both. Dr Joanna Howe is a Professor of Law at the University of Adelaide and a consultant with Harmers Workplace Lawyers. She holds a Doctorate of Philosophy in Law from the University of Oxford where she studied as a Rhodes Scholar. We delve into the deeply complex and controversial issue of late-term abortion and the implications of Australia's proposed Birth Equality Bill. She sheds light on the realities surrounding failed abortions, the laws that govern them, and the ethical questions they raise. Dr. Howe also shares real-life cases that reveal the emotional and medical complexities of abortion, emphasizing the need for compassion, informed choice, and a deeper recognition of the humanity of unborn babies. This discussion explores the care that should be required for newborns who survive abortion procedures, the psychological toll on mothers, and the cultural and systemic factors contributing to the prevalence of abortion. Dr. Howe advocates for open communication, education, and support systems to empower women and reduce the number of abortions through awareness and informed decision-making. Key Takeaways: - Abortion, particularly in the second and third trimesters, can sometimes fail, resulting in babies being born alive. - The **Birth Equality Bill** seeks to ensure that these babies receive the same medical care as any other newborn. - Laws governing late-term abortion vary across Australia, with all states permitting abortion up to birth for psychosocial reasons. - Many late-term abortions are performed on healthy babies, and the procedures can be distressing for both medical staff and mothers. - Informed consent is crucial, yet many women are not fully aware of the possibility of their baby being born alive or the details of the procedure. - Dr. Howe highlights the need for cultural change and education to address misconceptions and provide women with better support during crisis pregnancies. - Providing care and dignity to newborns born alive during abortion procedures is essential. - Societal recognition of the responsibilities of parenthood, starting at conception, is necessary to foster a culture of respect for life. - Education about abortion methods and their implications is vital to empower young people to make informed decisions. This conversation challenges polarizing narratives and underscores the importance of nuanced, empathetic discussions about abortion, women's rights, and societal responsibilities. Dr. Howe's insights provide a compassionate and balanced perspective on a sensitive issue, encouraging dialogue and reflection.
