Graham Coath talks to Olly (Oliver) Forget Them WendyWhat happens when music is allowed to be beautiful, catchy and accessible — but still has something slightly uncomfortable going on underneath?In this episode of MyMusic, Graham Coath talks to Edinburgh-born producer and guitarist Oliver Price of Forget Them Wendy, the project he created with songwriter Laura James.Forget Them Wendy brings together Laura and Oliver to make music that draws on the sounds they grew up with while exploring something much more current: growing up, finding your place in the world and trying not to lose the creativity and magic of childhood.And that idea is right there in the name.Forget Them Wendy comes from Peter Pan and that tension between growing up and wanting to hold onto the part of ourselves that still wants to play, explore and create. As Oliver explains, when Laura suggested the name, it seemed to capture what they were already making almost perfectly.The conversation goes far beyond the story of the band.Oliver talks about the reality of being a working songwriter and producer and why creativity isn't necessarily about waiting for inspiration. Some days you walk into the studio feeling inspired and make something terrible. Other days you drag yourself in when you don't feel creative at all — and something brilliant happens.There isn't a formula.You turn up. You make things. And occasionally something good happens.Graham and Oliver also explore how much the music world has changed. Technology has lowered the barriers to making and releasing music, giving more people the opportunity to create than ever before. But that creates another problem: an enormous amount of music is now released that almost nobody ever hears.Which leads to one of the big ideas in this conversation:If a song falls in the forest and nobody hears it, does it really exist?Oliver describes music as a social language — something that gains its power when it reaches another human being. Creating may be rewarding in itself, but music is also about connection, sharing, understanding and creating ripples of human expression.Stories also lie behind the songs.Wise Guy grew out of an argument involving Oliver — with Laura turning his behaviour into a song.Apple Pie takes something apparently simple and summery and puts something darker underneath it: enjoying the warmth and apparent permanence of summer while knowing that eventually it has to end.Then there is AI.Forget Them Wendy aren't particularly interested in becoming influencers. Their online identity is built largely around their music and distinctive painted artwork rather than endless photographs of themselves.The unexpected consequence?Some people have assumed Forget Them Wendy must be an AI band.That takes Graham and Oliver into a much bigger conversation about authenticity. If AI can create convincing people, voices, images, and even online personalities, does seeing someone's face online still prove they're human?And could the growth of AI ultimately make genuinely human experiences more valuable?Along the way there is surfing, Scotland, Hackney, tape machines, The Cranberries, Garbage, The Sundays, the disappearance of the old-fashioned music legend and the importance of having something outside your creative obsession that allows you to come back to your work with fresh energy.Forget Them Wendy haven't played live yet, but the album is nearly finished.Oliver's request is wonderfully straightforward:Go and listen.Love it or hate it, have an opinion.And if you love it, share it.Because perhaps music really is a social language.And a song nobody hears really is a little like a tree falling in a forest.MyMusic with Graham Coath — talking to Oliver Price from Forget Them Wendy.This episode is sponsored by 13th Floor Sound, an independent record label based in Las Vegas dedicated to keeping real music alive.

Together, they explore why modern healthcare leaves so many women confused, exhausted, and unsupported, especially while they are managing work, family, caregiving, and their own health.Dr. Laura explains how rushed appointments, fragmented care, and authority driven medicine limit understanding and undermine trust. She shares why education, inquiry, and listening are essential to better health outcomes, and how integrative approaches can support conventional care without replacing it.They also discuss supplements, misinformation in the wellness industry, menopause, energy depletion, and why fewer, well designed tools often work better than endless advice. This is a grounded conversation about resilience, boundaries, and how women can protect their health and capacity in systems that were never designed to support them.Notes:Overwhelm is often more damaging than the diagnosis itselfSeven minute doctor visits do not leave room for real understandingWomen need guides in healthcare, not just authority figuresAsking better questions leads to better decisionsMidlife women are often caring for everyone while neglecting themselvesSupport only helps when it matches what someone actually needsLearning to ask for specific help reduces stressBoundaries are a health strategy, not a personal failureThe supplement industry is confusing and poorly regulatedFewer, targeted supplements work better than long listsMenopause during illness adds another invisible layer of strainEducation is one of the most powerful forms of careThe healthcare system is breaking under capacity pressureResilience is built through clarity, support, and agencyGuest ContactDr. Laura James NDWebsite: https://www.laurajamesnd.comSupplement line: https://bestforbreast.com--- Subscribe and ReviewIf you loved this episode, drop us a review, share it with a badass woman in your life, and subscribe to Badass Women in Business wherever you get your podcasts.

In this special year-end episode of the Crisis Lab Podcast, host Kyle King sits down with a panel of industry leaders: Todd De Voe, Matt Green, Anastasia Maynich, Laura James, and Ralph Bloemers. They dissect the chaotic landscape of 2025 and the evolving role of the emergency manager. What it reveals: the dangerous lag between the velocity of modern crises and our traditional response systems. It also exposes the "capacity illusion" which is the belief that government agencies alone can handle the scale of today's disasters. Between the LA wildfires and the cascading infrastructure failures of 2025, the profession learned a hard lesson. Operational confidence can no longer mask the fragility of our communities. The panel tracks how "governance from 30,000 feet" often disconnects resources from the people who need them most. This creates a dangerous gap where policy meets reality. This conversation offers not a celebration of resilience, but a call to action. It reflects on the need to embrace "complex adaptive systems" rather than rigid command structures. It challenges the sector's hesitation to truly engage the public. It forces us to ask a hard question. Are we building systems that protect the status quo? Or are we ready to let communities lead their own recovery?

In this compelling conversation on this week's episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely welcomes naturopathic oncologist Dr. Laura James to pull back the curtain on the breast cancer journey. They dive deep into what it truly means to receive a breast cancer diagnosis and navigate what Dr. James candidly terms "the breast cancer industrial complex." This discussion moves far beyond simplistic narratives to explore the profound importance of personalized, integrative care that addresses the whole person—not just the tumor. Dr. James demystifies complex terminology, explaining the critical differences between receptor statuses and what a genetic link really means for risk. She outlines the distinct phases of treatment and emphasizes why having an informed advocate, like a naturopathic oncologist, can be transformative in helping women understand their options and ask the right questions. The conversation takes an honest look at the often-overlooked emotional and systemic realities, including the burden of shame, the critical need for a "buddy system," and the stark limitations of protocol-driven, siloed medicine. Perhaps most impactful is their exploration of life after treatment, including the controversial yet vital discussion around hormone replacement therapy for survivors. Dr. James provides a nuanced perspective on weighing quality of life and long-term health risks, advocating for women's right to make fully informed decisions for their bodies and their futures. This episode is an empowering resource for anyone touched by breast cancer, offering clarity, compassion, and a bold new framework for healing.

Welcome to a Tale Teller Club Publishing Podcast.Behind the Mask: Understanding Female Masking in Autism and the Push for Earlier Diagnoses.For decades, the narrative surrounding autism has been overwhelmingly male. Diagnostic criteria were originally developed based on studies of young boys, leaving a vast number of autistic girls and women misdiagnosed—or not diagnosed at all. The consequences of this oversight are profound, particularly when it comes to the phenomenon of female masking.What is Female Masking?Female masking refers to the ways many autistic women (and AFAB nonbinary individuals) consciously or subconsciously camouflage their autistic traits in order to blend in socially. This includes mimicking social behaviors, scripting conversations, suppressing stims, and copying facial expressions or body language from peers. It's a survival tactic often developed from an early age to avoid bullying, exclusion, or being labeled as "weird."While masking may provide short-term social inclusion, the long-term costs are significant. Many women report chronic exhaustion, anxiety, depression, identity confusion, and even burnout—a condition similar to chronic fatigue triggered by years of performing neurotypical behavior under pressure.Why Do Autistic Women Go Undiagnosed?There are several intersecting factors:Gender Bias in Diagnostic Tools: Most traditional autism tests were based on male presentations—such as overt repetitive behaviors or obvious communication delays—which may not manifest the same way in girls and women.Social Conditioning: From a young age, girls are often socialized to be more compliant, empathetic, and nurturing. This can make autistic traits less noticeable or easier to mask.Misdiagnoses: Many women are first diagnosed with anxiety, borderline personality disorder, OCD, or eating disorders—conditions that can co-occur with or mask autism.Internalized Ableism: Some women internalize a belief that their struggles are moral failings rather than neurological differences, leading to shame, silence, and missed opportunities for help.What Is Being Done to Change This?The tide is slowly turning, thanks in large part to advocacy by autistic women, researchers, and clinicians pushing for better awareness and tools.1. Redesigning Diagnostic CriteriaEfforts are underway to broaden and update autism diagnostic frameworks to account for female and nonbinary presentations. This includes recognizing more subtle signs like:Social exhaustion after brief interactionsPreference for deep, solitary special interestsEmotional hypersensitivity or meltdowns behind closed doorsExtreme self-monitoring and perfectionismThe use of gender-sensitive screening tools, such as the Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionnaire (CAT-Q) and revised checklists from clinicians like Dr. Judith Gould and Dr. Tony Attwood, are helping professionals identify masking patterns more effectively.2. Increased Awareness Among ProfessionalsAutism training for GPs, psychologists, and school staff is beginning to include modules on how autism presents differently in women and girls. Early years educators are being taught to spot non-disruptive behaviors and social exhaustion as potential signs, rather than only focusing on the more classically male behaviors like aggression or non-verbal communication.3. Autistic Women Sharing Their StoriesThe voices of late-diagnosed women are having a profound impact. Memoirs, blogs, podcasts, and social media accounts have created a thriving neurodivergent community where stories are shared, identities are affirmed, and others are encouraged to seek assessments.Authors such as Sarah Hendrickx, Laura James, and Dr. Camilla Pang have brought autism in women into the public eye, challenging the outdated image of what autism "looks like."4. Advocacy for Earlier, Affordable AssessmentCampaigns are now fighting to:Shorten NHS waitlists for autism assessmentsMake private assessments financially accessibleEncourage school-based referrals that look beyond disruptive behaviorRemove gendered bias from early years evaluationsAdditionally, there's growing awareness of intersectional barriers—for instance, how autistic women of color or those from low-income backgrounds are even more likely to be misdiagnosed or dismissed.Toward a Future of Acceptance and Early InterventionFemale masking is not just a clinical issue—it's an emotional one. It speaks to the lengths so many autistic individuals go to in order to survive in a world that isn't designed for them. By understanding and dismantling the biases that lead to late or missed diagnoses, we're moving closer to a world where girls and women on the spectrum are seen, supported, and celebrated from the beginning.Early diagnosis isn't about labels—it's about liberation. It's about giving individuals the language, tools, and confidence to unmask safely and thrive authentically.This is a LitBits broadcast for tale teller club publishing.

In today's episode, we are joined by my naturopathic oncologist, Dr. Laura James. As you listen to our discussion, it's essential to acknowledge the whirlwind that accompanies a cancer diagnosis. For many, including myself, the speed at which treatment unfolds can be both a blessing and a challenge. The urgency of medical intervention, coupled with the support of excellent health insurance and the unique circumstances of the COVID-19 era, can lead to a swift entry into what is commonly referred to as the breast cancer industrial complex. But what exactly does this term mean? It's a new concept that encompasses medical advancements, institutional processes, and societal expectations surrounding cancer treatment. While grateful for the prompt attention and care received, there's an underlying need to address the implications of this fast-paced medical industry. For me, and perhaps for many others, navigating the breast cancer industrial complex has raised questions about agency, reflection, and informed decision-making. The speed at which decisions are made can sometimes overshadow the opportunity for thorough consideration, prayer, and seeking second opinions—elements crucial to holistic well-being. Together with Dr. James, we'll explore the importance of empowerment in the face of medical urgency, the role of advocacy in navigating treatment pathways, and the significance of holistic approaches to cancer care. ______ Air Dr. I've been using the Air Doctor air purifier for almost a year and absolutely love it!

Dr. James provided a wealth of information about the role of naturopathic oncology in breast cancer care, emphasizing the importance of integrative medicine. She clarified the distinctions between integrative, complementary, and alternative care, and highlighted the collaborative approach she takes with conventional medical teams to support patients through their cancer journey.We discussed the critical role of the "four cornerstones" of health—diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management—in supporting overall well-being and reducing the risk of cancer recurrence.We also delved into the emotional and psychological aspects of a breast cancer diagnosis, particularly the societal pressures and internalized guilt that many women face. Dr. James emphasized the need for setting boundaries and practicing real self-care, which she defines as self-preservation; it is not selfishness. Throughout our conversation, Dr. James highlighted the importance of building a comprehensive care team and the challenges of integrating naturopathic oncology into conventional cancer care. She shared her experiences in developing relationships with conventional doctors and the ongoing effort to gain acceptance for integrative approaches.This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the holistic approach to breast cancer care and the importance of addressing both the physical and emotional aspects of the disease.

I was SHOCKED to hear that when I buy frozen fish, it's frozen TWICE. It's usually frozen right after being caught, defrosted, processed, and then frozen again. I buy a lot of frozen fish; sometimes, the taste and texture can be inconsistent. Now that I have a better understanding of the processing of the fish before it hits my plate, it makes me wonder about quality. I called a friend who works at ButcherBox and asked her about the process with their salmon. She assured me that BB only freezes the fish ONCE! Which helps preserve the nutrients and taste. The big one for me is texture. When I eat fish, I want a firm texture, not rubbery! After getting over my shock (yes, fooled again by the food corporations) I asked my BB friend if I could pretty-please offer free salmon to my community. She said yes, so if you use the code 'enos', you can get free salmon (2 pounds) free for a year and $20 off of your first box. https://www.butcherbox.com/enos   This podcast is for informational purposes only and none of the information should be construed as medical advice.

Peace Talks Season Seven kicks off with a fascinating conversation with artist Laura James. Vanessa and Laura discuss what it means for art— and Jesus—to be accessible, how art can help us personalize Jesus, and why "art for the people" is a meaningful category. Whether you consider yourself "artistic" or not, this conversation is for you.Laura James has been working as a professional artist and illustrator for over twenty years. In addition to painting sacred images from various religions, she portrays women, families, and scenes of everyday life; blending intricate patterns, text, vibrant colors and sometimes surreal imagery into what she calls “art for the people.” Laura is also a valuable member of her community, and is the originator and Executive Director of BX200: Bronx Visual Artists Directory, an online database of some of the Bronx's best visual artists. Ms. James has recently completed a special commission for the American Museum of Natural History, as well as illustrations for her second children's book. She lives and works in the Bronx, NY.» Subscribe to PEACE TALKS Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/peace-talks/id1590168616About the Center for Formation, Justice and Peace:Justice and peace come from the inside out—from the overflow of a transformed heart.

Because “religion” is often part of the problem, we've created a brave, Jesus-centered space for dialogue, questioning, creating, and exploration.

Lisha invites us to consider - a reclaiming of the faith and practices that have belonged to us - all along. Angels, miracles - knowing, sensing and hearing are our legacy. In a time of collective uncertainty she encourages us to employ these practices - to, with the shepherds, take our place in the story. Belief will save us - vision will save us - listening - dreaming and acting on our faith … will save us. Scriptures: Isaiah 9: 2–7 Psalm 96 Luke 2: 1-14 Cover art is Holy Family by Laura James

30. Can Estrogen Cause Breast Cancer?    I loved this interview with my naturopathic oncologist, Dr. Laura James. She is a wealth of information and was a great support to me during my breast cancer battle.   We discussed estrogen's role in breast cancer and how too much can be problematic. According to Dr. James, excess estrogen (we pick up a lot of additional estrogen from using plastic and cosmetics) may encourage cancer growth. However, she states that the "jury is still out" on whether estrogen causes cancer.   We also talk about consuming soy products (spoiler alert, I eat soy!) and if some soy products are better than others.   We also discussed a few products I use and that Dr. James recommends for those gosh-darn hot flashes!   Her website is a powerful resource for anyone fighting breast cancer or trying to avoid it! Visit LauraJamesND.com.   For the Hot Flash supplement created by Dr. James, visit her website above or click here!     About Dr. Laura James: Dr. Laura James is a naturopathic oncologist in private practice in Bellingham, WA. She is trained in safely managing complementary and alternative therapies for cancer patients undergoing conventional cancer treatments.    She provides complementary medicine consultations regarding whole foods nutrition, botanical medicine, nutritional supplements, and lifestyle modifications to attain optimum health during cancer treatment and after. She founded Red Cedar Wellness Center, an interdisciplinary integrative health clinic for adults in Bellevue, in 2002, and acted as medical director through 2018.     Dr. James has a bachelor's degree from Tufts University in Boston, and her naturopathic medicine doctorate from Bastyr University in Seattle. She is a Fellow of the American Board of Naturopathic Oncology. She has served on the Board of Team Survivor Northwest, and as adjunct faculty at Bastyr University's Center for Natural Health.

She is a sought-after speaker for local and national organizations, including the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Evergreen Healthcare, Overlake Hospital Medical Center, Cancer Lifeline, and the Susan G. Komen Foundation.    This episode is sponsored in part by ButcherBox. I love using Bison! It's very nutrient dense and contains conjugated linoleic acid (I know, what the heck does that mean?), which means Bison has anti-inflammatory properties. Here are the other reasons why I love using Bison in place of ground beef: Higher amounts of omega three fatty acids. More b12, zinc, iron, and selenium than beef. Some studies show it's got four times the vitamin E compared to beef. Lower in calories and cholesterol. It is lower fat, so it will cook faster than ground beef. My friends at BB are offering a deal that they've never offered to anyone! I had to say "pretty please" a couple of times, and guess what? It worked! I can't tell you how long they will offer this deal to me, but here it is:

Many people with autism find navigating a world not designed for them a difficult task. They are forced to spend much of their lives trying to fit in – but what if it is the “neurotypical” majority who should adapt?In this week's episode of The i Podcast we are joined by iMoney and Business Editor Jessie Hewitson to talk about the way her view of the condition has changed dramatically in the years since her son's diagnosis.In the 90s, advocates for a better understanding of autism attempted to reverse the conversation around it, coining the phrase “neurotypical syndrome” – describing “sufferers” as following “impossible social rituals”, finding it “difficult to communicate directly” and lying far more often than autistic people. It's an idea that Jessie has warmed to.Through the process of writing her book Autism: How to raise a happily autistic child she came to appreciate the need to reframe neurodivergence – and look beyond the contradictions of the non-autistic world.One of the people who transformed her view was Laura James – an author and journalist whose autism was only diagnosed in her forties. She joins us to give a unique insight into why neurotypical people should try and “be more autistic”.Read Jessie's writing here: https://inews.co.uk/author/jessie-hewitsonProduced by Julia Webster.

This week - our last episode of the season brings all the horrors of World War I with the additional terror of an unexplained pandemic! In this episode Nicola and Hannah discuss the gendered expectations of soldiers returning from WWI with disabilities, especially facial injuries, and the expectations of women in their lives. There's a brief Robin Williams-diversion, and then a discussion of the work of American artist Anna Coleman-Ladd in restoring confidence to some soldiers with her delicately crafted copper masks that served to mimic the men's pre-war faces. Thanks to everyone who listened through this season of our podcast, we appreciate every single one of you. We will be back sometime in 2022, hopefully recording together and not being hit by things falling off the desks we're recording under. Anything for slightly better audio quality.  Thanks to Dorian (here's his twitter) for his reading of “We Are the Maimed” and “In Flanders Fields.” Dorian is a queer-, disability- and trans- rights activist and artist based in Melbourne.

On today's Story Works Reading Series, Laura James reads "Stuck." When an ex-pat drifts aggressively through Paris, in search of love and belonging, we wonder if she is running away or toward something? With wry humor, the city comes to life as Leah navigates public transit, a classic Parisian building, and her own inner world. After the reading, Laura and I sit down to chat about "Stuck" - Laura in Southern Spain and I in Minnesota - its inspiration in real life, writing during total lockdown, and much more! See Laura and her photo of Paris at www.storyworkspodcast.com

Laura James, Vice President of Innovation at the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership (CVEP), talks about Innovation Month activities in Riverside County throughout the month of April. She also details the Greater Palm Springs Fastpitch competition which will take place on April 14, where entrepreneurs will have an opportunity to present their innovations and possibly be invited to move on to the county-wide competition featuring a grand prize of $10,000. This is similar to Shark Tank, where up and coming businesses vie for financial support of their start-up ventures on network television.

Laura James from the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership talks with John McMullen about the brightening picture for jobless people in the Coachella Valley and the speed with which the economy has turned around for those whose employment has been on shaky ground since the onset of the pandemic.

Laura James is Vice President of Innovation at the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership, where she and the rest of the lean, mean fighting machine that helps drive economic development in the region are working day and night to help business owners weather the storm that COVID-19 delivered with next to no warning. How are businesses in the Southern California Desert Cities adapting to conditions? What services and benefits are out there to help enterprises stay afloat until the marketplace recovers? How has this changed how business will operate forever forward? For people laid off or otherwise out of work who have ideas of their own to get into business, what advice is there to help them succeed? These and other questions are answered by Laura on this episode.

Just to let you know, we briefly talk about suicide (15:35) and racism in this episode (31:44). This week we have a long catch up, firstly starting with the weather because would we be British if we didn't? In Telly Talk it's the penultimate of Liv's ‘Love Island Minute' - Liv also discusses Mamma Mia 2, Disney's Coco and Christopher Robin. Meanwhile Charlotte's been watching Anthony Bourdain's back catalogue, continuing with Dietland, and is now Ladygaga's number fan after watching her documentary Five Foot Two. Alongside TV, we discuss the book ‘Why I am No Longer Talking to White People About Race' by Reni Eddo-Lodge. In shopping we learn what dream Gucci item Liv is lusting over, and Charlotte's new favourite cheese (you really get it all on this podcast). Alongside this we discuss visiting Sheffield, going pescatarian for a week and a few of our favourite new apps.
