Nineteenth-century Americans regarded Paris as a libertine paradise: a smorgasbord of food and fashion, of night life and sex. Today, the pull toward France endures, though the precise nature of its appeal has shifted. On the second in a series of Critics at Large interview episodes, Alexandra Schwartz talks with the staff writer Lauren Collins about her work as The New Yorker's woman on the ground in France and the long lineage of Francophilic Americans—from Edith Wharton to James Baldwin and, yes, even “Emily.” The two consider how French femininity has been marketed to American women and how modern influencers transmit an incomplete picture of Paris. “Yes, it's romantic, and, yes, it's picturesque, but it's also a big, loud, dirty, profane, complicated city that evolves and changes like everywhere else,” Collins says. “There's a lot of misbegotten essentializing that happens when Americans start talking about France.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Ces restaurants qui gonflent l'addition des touristes américains,” by Mathieu Hennequin (Le Parisien)“Can Emmanuel Macron Stem the Populist Tide?,” by Lauren Collins (The New Yorker)“The Unlikely Rise of French Tacos,” by Lauren Collins (The New Yorker)“Dearest Edith,” by Janet Flanner (The New Yorker)“The Custom of the Country,” by Edith Wharton“Go Tell It on the Mountain,” by James Baldwin“Giovanni's Room,” by James Baldwin“The Discovery of What It Means to Be an American,” by James Baldwin (The New York Times)“Emily in Paris” (2020–)“Sex and the City” (1998–2004)“French Women Don't Get Fat,” by Mireille Guiliano“Bringing Up Bébé,” by Pamela DruckermanNew episodes drop every Thursday.

Sponsored by KPMGNegotiations currently taking place on Capitol Hill stand to have a dramatic impact on tax incentives in the Inflation Reduction Act that have powered tremendous growth in clean energy and domestic manufacturing. With so much chatter coming out of Congress, Alfred Johnson, the co-founder and CEO of Crux, and Lauren Collins, a partner at Vinson and Elkins LLP, return to the show to help separate the signal from the noise -- or in this case, decipher the difference between a scalpel and a sledgehammer.

The Canadian actor Lauren Collins became famous for playing a gutsy, outspoken high school student on "Degrassi: The Next Generation.” But now as she approaches her 40s, she's matured into roles that portray women with new kinds of problems, such as when to have a baby, how not to work so much, and what to do about the ghost of your mother who won't shut up. Lauren sits down with Tom Power to talk about her new show, “My Dead Mom,” and how it strikes the perfect balance between anger, humour, grief and the conflicting emotions around losing a parent who drove you crazy.
Today on The Social, hotels are charging up to 10 times more during Taylor Swift tour dates! And, adults are less inclined to mix friends from different social circles. Then, celebrities open up about open marriage. Plus, a Reddit thread lists the customs that people would like to get rid of. And, one woman says refusing to do her husband's laundry saved her marriage. Then, Toronto unveils new “Taylor Swift Way” streets signs in honour of the pop star. Plus, “Degrassi” alum Lauren Collins explores grief with humour in her new Crave Original series, “My Dead Mom”.
Since Lauren Collins is starring in the new Crave series My Dead Mom – and since the US election is all anyone can think about right now – here's her 2015 episode on Gillian Robespierre's breakout comedy Obvious Child, the one where Jenny Slate plays an aspiring Brooklyn standup trying to build a set while dealing with an unplanned pregnancy. Your genial host Norm Wilner really hopes America holds itself together this week.

Robin **** Lauren Collins is a registered nurse, wellness coach, life coach, follower of Jesus, and mama who helps women struggling with anxiety, overwhelm and the emotional rollercoaster that comes in the week leading up to their period.

When she started implementing whole body wellness, being an active participant in her own health and gaining awareness of her own cycle and body, she started to see a shift. Now she teaches women how to do the same thing through holistic, faith-based and whole body wellness, so they can also find the "medicine" that keeps their body well, their mind clear and their identity in God strong.

Welcome Back, Wellness Warrior! On Tuesday, I shared an interview with Lauren Collins from the PMS Made Peaceful show. Lauren and I have so much in common and have similar stories with main commonality of anxiety. Today, I think it would be a great follow up for you to hear my menstrual cycle testimony. We all have hormones and for those of us that struggle with anxiety, these chemical messengers have been screaming at us since we have gotten our cycles and we aren't and haven't been listening ( myself included)! BUT since realizing ALL these emotions, stress, irritability, overwhelm have been manifestations of anxiety has been so helpful in how to holistically heal. SO to manage my menstrual anxiety, I have taken simple wellness action steps and I want to share them with you. In this conversation, I share: how it affected my relationships how I knew about the body, but my beliefs on the female cycle were lies how God and my faith played a role in healing and the successful way I have handled my menstrual anxiety for the past year! Listen in to my conversation with Lauren on PMS made Peaceful. Let's go to battle!

Welcome Back, Wellness Warrior! Sharing something today that we ALL can relate to…back to hormone health today. We all have HOREMONES, are we listening to these little messengers though?? They are constantly relaying messages, but are we paying any attention? Our guest today started paying attention and discovered something. She went on a journey to pursue peace in her hormone health. We are both nurses and love the body and have similar stories. Unfortunately, we have a lot of mic noises that I couldn't edit out- so sorry for the distracting noises. But gotta listen through it, because it's so good! Lauren is a registered nurse, wellness coach, mom, Christ-follower and the host of the podcast PMS Made Peaceful. For years, Lauren struggled to manage debilitating negative and anxious thoughts that would bombard her in the week before getting her period. She would often feel like a failure as a wife and friend, and that she just didn't have the capacity to care for herself well. When she started to work with her body and the natural rhythms God had created her with through holistic wellness and implementing habits daily, things started to shift. She now also helps other Christian women who are wanting more emotional regulation during their premenstrual phase, so they can feel more calm throughout their whole cycle. Let's go to battle!

There's little more universally enticing than a story about someone setting off on a great voyage: an intrepid adventurer protagonist. This week, the book I'm discussing is just that – a journey into unknown frontiers, both geographically and linguistically. Today I'm speaking with author and journalist Lauren Collins. Lauren, a staff writer with the New Yorker since 2008, published her incredible debut novel, When In French: Love in a Second Language, to huge acclaim in 2016. In this episode, Lauren and I get into the idea of language – the experience of being a person who lives between two languages, the evolution and porosity of language, L'Academie Francaise (the three-headed dog that guards French grammar), and some technical aspects of a few high-impact linguistic theories. In our interview today, Lauren told me about the book Je ne suis pas Parisienne, by Alice Pfeiffer (2019) – a series of essays written by a journalist, repudiating the ‘Parisian woman' cliché. Her favorite book that I've probably never heard of is The Smile Revolution, by Colin Jones (2014), a cultural history of smiling. Her four best books from the last 12 months are We Don't Know Ourselves: A Personal History of Modern Ireland, by Fintan O'Toole (2021), Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiments, by Saidiya Hartman (2019), Biography of X, by Catherine Lacey (2023), and South to America, by Imani Perry (2022). Finally, the book she would take to a desert island is Lucy Sante's The Other Paris: An illustrated journey through a city's poor and Bohemian past (2015), a guided-tour through the Paris of a bygone era.
In today's episode, Amanda drinks some white wine with actor and writer Lauren Collins to discuss her time on Degrassi, pregnancy and motherhood, and what it's like to feel recognizable but not quite famous. Lauren is an actor and writer, best known for her portrayal of Paige Michalchuk on the international hit series, Degrassi. A three-time Canadian Screen Award nominee, some highlights from Lauren's 25-year long career include The Kroll Show, The Strain, Take the Lead starring Antonio Banderas, and Charlie Bartlett starring Robert Downey Jr.. Most recently, you can catch Lauren guest starring on What We Do In The Shadows, Pretty Hard Cases, and the Roku series SLIP from writer/director Zoe Lister-Jones. Lauren's short film Zero Recognition, which she co-wrote and co-starred in with actor Ben Lewis. The film premiered at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival and was a Vimeo Featured Staff Pick. Their follow-up short film, Apart From Everything starring Emmy-winner Tatiana Maslany, was shown at dozens of festivals including LA Outfest and New York Newfest. The duo's first feature film script, More Than A Friend, was selected for the CFC Comedy Lab and the prestigious BlackList Live Read at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.

Es geht ums Ganze bei den beiden wichtigsten Wahlen des Westens im neuen Jahr 2022: Im April liefert sich der französische Präsident Emmanuel Macron, der mittige Modernisierer, jungenhaft charmant, aber knallhart in seinen Ansagen, ein Match um den Élysée-Palast. Die Konkurrenz wittert nach fünf wild bewegten Amtsjahren, die von islamistischem Terror, wütenden Gelbwesten-Protesten, strikten Corona-Lockdowns und zu allem Überfluss auch noch von Notre-Dame in Flammen geprägt waren, wieder Morgenluft: Aber es ist nicht etwa eine neu erstarkte Linke, die den Sieg über den maximal geschmeidigen Elite-Technokraten nahen sieht, sondern die Rechte – von der konservativen „Eisernen Lady“ Valérie Pécresse über die rechtspopulistische Dynastin Marine Le Pen bis zum reaktionären Radikalen Éric Zemmour. Im Aufwind sehen sich auch die immer extremeren Republikaner in den USA, die Joe Bidens Demokraten im November die mageren Mehrheiten in Kongress und Senat abknüpfen wollen – und damit einem Comeback des verbitterten Altpräsidenten Trump 2024 den Weg bereiten könnten. Mit Lauren Collins, der Frankreichkorrespondentin des New Yorker, Macron-Interviewerin sowie Autorin von When in French: Love in a Second Language besprechen wir, ob dieses Wahljahr in Frankreich und in den Vereinigten Staaten den rechten Backlash gegen die Mächtigen aus dem Mitte-Links-Lager bringen dürfte. Mit Florence Dancoisne, der Direktorin des Centre Culturel Français Freiburg, unseres Schwester-Instituts sozusagen, geht es um die komplizierte Dynamik zwischen den Herausforderer*innen und dem einstigen „En Marche“-Wunderkind im Ringen um den Chefsessel der „Grande Nation“ – aber auch darum, ob die einstige Austausch-Studentin in St. Louis, Missouri Parallelen zwischen beiden Urnengängen ausmacht.

Diversity and inclusion are more than just buzzwords. They are fundamental to an ever shifting societal landscape, with open discourse around these themes becoming increasingly more widespread in day to day life. How do we measure how diverse or inclusive a workforce is? And how do we ensure this data is transparent and self-evident? Diversity for diversity's sake can be just an exercise in checking a box to fit a quota. It's the inclusion of a wider pool of diverse talent that allows businesses to thrive, create, and innovate. In this episode of The Big Question, Detria Williamson asks Frances Frei, Harvard Business School Professor of Technology and Operations Management and Lauren Collins, Chief of Staff, office of the CEO, IDEO… how might we, as leaders, embark on a journey of diversity, inclusion, and transformation in a radically transparent and collaborative way? Frances and Lauren talk about how not only inclusivity of a more diverse workforce, but transparency on the methods used for integration and inclusion, can be achieved through design.
In this episode, IDEO's Lauren Collins and Harvard Business School Professor Frances Frei discuss how to level up your leadership practice by honing the skills and mindsets needed to empower your team and organization. View the full recap at ideou.com/blog.

Mena Suvari talks about the abusive environment she was raised in as a young model and actor in her bracing memoir The Great Peace. Pop star Billie Eilish on her relationship to fans, fame and social media. Degrassi alum Lauren Collins and Jake Epstein look back on the show's most powerful storylines and legacy in Canadian television.
Dr. Lauren Collins, a chiropractor, and birth worker tapped into the wisdom and experiences of the families she's supported over the years and empowered her during her homebirth. A birth that was peaceful, intense, and also faster than expected. Conception came easy for her and her partner, and they enjoyed a healthy pregnancy. Although she paused birth work during pregnancy, she found that the chiropractic practice was taxing on her body and felt called to rest daily.Preparation for parenthood centered on setting healthy boundaries and family dynamics and expectations were essential aspects of parenting that Lauren sought support within therapy. She hired a doula and leaned into the Bradley method to garner more coping skills for the labor ahead, especially because they were planning for a home birth.The day her labor started, she started to busy herself but again felt led to rest. She eventually became restless and began to move through her contractions. Lauren's doula and husband helped her with position changes and comfort measures. She utilized her home to her advantage to maintain a relaxed state of mind. Allowing is a state of mind that releases our minds from overworking so the body can work during labor according to its design. Her son would come much faster than expected for a first-time birthing parent. The birth team was not there yet as she was "pushy." Realizing her midwife would not make it in time to catch, Lauren tapped into her connection with her son. She said, "Ok, we just have to figure this out now." Her doula Facetimed the midwife to provide virtual support as Lauren successfully delivered her son into her arms in the shower. Lauren credits her preparation with her birthing team and some of the books she read during pregnancy for how she managed her labor despite not marking the typical milestones that she has seen in labors. Allowing space for solitude was vital in keeping her labor moving forward organically.The difficulty in healing was more challenging for Lauren than the birth itself, partly due to her expectations. Learning to rely on other people as she healed proved to be an important opportunity to learn to give herself permission to seek support. Birth teams are critical to the success and overall positive experience of labor. Access to out-of-hospital birth has some obstacles, but whatever is in your power to control, build your team to meet those needs.Resources:Birthing From Within | an extra-ordinary guide to childbirth preparationMultifaceted Mama Podcast | candid conversations for & with multifaceted mamas about transitioning into motherhood & its impact on personal growth, health, career, and finding your rhythm.Abound Chiropractic (Dr. Lauren Collins Practice) | supportive chiropractic designed for aspiring, expecting, and postpartum mamas and babiesRoyal La Mére | birth and wellness support services

A meditation on race and identity from one of our most provocative cultural critics. A reckoning with the way we choose to see and define ourselves, Self-Portrait in Black and White is the searching story of one American family's multigenerational transformation from what is called black to what is assumed to be white. Thomas Chatterton Williams, the son of a “black” father from the segregated South and a “white” mother from the West, spent his whole life believing the dictum that a single drop of “black blood” makes a person black. This was so fundamental to his self-conception that he'd never rigorously reflected on its foundations—but the shock of his experience as the black father of two extremely white-looking children led him to question these long-held convictions. It is not that he has come to believe that he is no longer black or that his kids are white, Thomas notes. It is that these categories cannot adequately capture either of them—or anyone else, for that matter. Beautifully written and bound to upset received opinions on race, Self-Portrait in Black and White is an urgent work for our time. Thomas is the author of Losing My Cool and Self-Portrait in Black and White. He is a contributing writer at the New York Times Magazine, a contributing editor at the American Scholar and a 2019 New America Fellow. His work has appeared in the New Yorker, the London Review of Books, Harper's and elsewhere, and has been collected in The Best American Essays and The Best American Travel Writing. He has received support from Yaddo, MacDowell and The American Academy in Berlin. He lives in Paris with his wife and children. Lauren Collins began contributing to The New Yorker in 2003 and became a staff writer in 2008. She is the author of When in French: Love in a Second Language, which the Times named as one of its 100 Notable Books of 2016. She is working on a second book, about a coup d'état perpetrated by white supremacists in Wilmington, North Carolina, in 1898, and its effects on the city during the past hundred and twenty years. Recorded on 19 November 2019
Surviving trauma can leave behind lots of scars, not just the physical scars, but emotional and psychological scars too. Despite what trauma you may have faced: sexual, domestic violence, natural disaster, they can all do a number on how we are able to cope with how we manage our bodies and move around in the world. Lauren Collins speaks to the work she does as a pelvic floor physical therapist and how she assists with the healing process for sexual assault survivors and what her own self care consists of after being witness to so much trauma. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/themasterfulartofselfcare/support
