Learn how to write authentic, diverse characters without over-explaining or fearing criticism.Writing diverse characters can feel intimidating. You want to include different voices in your story, but worry about misrepresenting them. This leads many writers to either avoid diversity altogether or fall into the trap of over-explaining everything for a mainstream gaze, thereby diluting the power of their story.In this episode, I sit down with Tiffany Grimes, founder of Burgeon Design and Editorial and an MFA-trained editor who specializes in amplifying marginalized voices. After recognizing areas for growth in her own feedback, Tiffany has spent years helping writers shed performative expectations and write with radical honesty.Here's what we cover:[05:50] Tiffany's vulnerable experience writing about a Vietnamese character and learning she wasn't the right person to tell that story.[09:00] The core framework that separates writing "about" a community versus writing "to" your community from the inside.[19:00] Why you should give yourself permission to write the stereotype first in early drafts.[20:25] How Jesinia (a deaf character in the Fourth Wing) shows why trusting your audience creates better representation.[21:00] The protection question that helps you identify when you're diluting your story for mainstream audiences.[26:45] Understanding emotional clarity and how readers' experience goes deeper than just character representation.Whether you're writing characters from your own experience or exploring different perspectives, this conversation offers compassionate guidance for creating authentic, powerful stories that honor both your characters and your readers.

Why does brain inflammation happen during the freeze response? How do you explain the difference between stress and trauma to patients? What's the single most important starting point for nervous system regulation? This episode answers these critical questions while revealing why emotional eating isn't a willpower problem and introducing the simple three-day tracking tool that changes everything for healing. You'll discover the critical line of overwhelm - that invisible threshold where stress becomes trauma - and learn practical strategies you can implement immediately to support your nervous system and begin the repair process. In this episode you'll learn: [01:19] The Biggest Myth: Why confusing stress and trauma leads to minimizing experiences and self-shame  [02:11] Physician's Lens on Trauma: If it makes you sick 20 years later, it wasn't just stress  [06:04] Three Nervous System States: Understanding polyvagal theory and the critical line of overwhelm  [09:52] Brain Inflammation During Freeze: Why immune cells unleash inflammation as protective survival strategy  [13:25] Dysregulation Multiplied by Time: Why autoimmunity takes 20 years of nervous system dysregulation to appear  [14:40] Three-Day Nervous System Journal: Simple hourly tracking tool that reveals hidden patterns  [19:00] The Gut-Brain Connection: Why your gut is inseparable from brain health and trauma loops  [21:22] Emotional Eating and Functional Freeze: Understanding food's hidden functions beyond willpower  [24:40] The #1 Starting Point: Why quality sleep has greatest impact on nervous system regulation  [25:44] Aligning with Circadian Rhythm: Morning sunlight, red light therapy, and working with your body's healing strategies Main Takeaways: Stress vs. Trauma Requires Different Repair: If it makes you sick 20 years later, it was trauma requiring fundamentally different approaches than stress management The Critical Line of Overwhelm: Personal capacity threshold where activation becomes trauma and the body automatically hits emergency brake Brain Inflammation Serves Protection: Immune cells unleash inflammation during freeze to facilitate disconnection and energy conservation for survival Time Compounds Dysregulation: Autoimmunity requires approximately 20 years of nervous system dysregulation to manifest as diagnosable disease Three-Day Tracking Creates Awareness: Hourly nervous system tracking reveals patterns showing time spent in shutdown, stress, or calm aliveness Innate Healing Requires Right Conditions: Surgical incisions prove the body heals itself when blocks are removed and proper support provided Gut-Brain Creates Stuck Points: Imbalanced gut causes neurochemical problems feeding back to worsen gut issues, limiting therapy progress Food Function Reveals Need: Emotional eating serves specific purposes - staying awake, avoiding feelings, managing energy - not willpower failure Sleep Impacts Everything: Quality sleep has greatest single effect on nervous system regulation and reduces sugar cravings Notable Quotes: "If it makes you sick 20 years later, that was not just stress. That was trauma your body was experiencing in childhood. You're looking at it through the lens of your adult self now, but that's not how you were experiencing it back then." "The critical line of overwhelm is where you've done your best. Your best wasn't good enough, and hitting the wall means there's no point in trying anymore." "Brain inflammation is part of a trauma response. Sometimes it triggers it. Sometimes it's triggered by the freeze response, but they always happen together." "Dysregulation multiplied by time becomes diagnoses. It's predictable." "Track your nervous system, and you'll be amazed at how much you learn about yourself in a week."   Episode Takeaway: The critical line of overwhelm represents your personal threshold where stress becomes trauma and your body automatically engages the emergency brake. Brain inflammation during freeze is part of the deliberate survival strategy - helping you disconnect, go numb, and conserve energy for survival. The insight: dysregulation multiplied by time becomes disease. Autoimmunity takes approximately 20 years of compounded nervous system dysregulation to manifest. This explains why short-term stress doesn't cause chronic illness but prolonged trauma patterns do. The three-day nervous system journal - tracking your inner state hourly - reveals patterns invisible to both practitioners and clients. This tracking tool shows how much time you spend in each of the three states and guides targeted intervention. Quality sleep stands as the single most powerful starting point for nervous system regulation. Better sleep reduces emotional eating, decreases sugar cravings, and increases your capacity to handle stress before crossing that critical line into trauma territory.

In this episode of The Balance, Jessica Vance joins me to discuss her new book, Evidence of Inquiry: Exploring, Questioning, and Documenting with Learning Walls. We explore what it means to “follow your learners” and how inquiry shifts the way teachers engage students around the topics and concepts at the center of the curriculum. Jessica unpacks the purpose and power of learning walls, explaining how they make student thinking visible, create space for collaborative meaning-making, and even serve as professional playgrounds for teachers themselves. Together, we reflect on the mindset, culture, and practical strategies that help both teachers and students embrace uncertainty, curiosity, and deeper learning.

In this episode, we peer through three lenses of biblical interpretation. Each lens represents a phillosophy of sorts for how to approach interpretation, now that we've made our observations (see prior episodes). Lens #1 is INTENT. Understanding the author's intended message is key to accurate interpretation. Lens #2 is INERRANCY. Understanding that the Bible is true is key to accurate interpretation. Lens #3 is INQUIRY. Asking 'why' is essential to the interpretive process.Thank you for joining us - father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner - on the trail to a deeper walk with God!

Welcome to The Rose and Rockstar - with the Chief Troublemaker at Seventh Bear, Robert Rose, behind the bar serving one of his splendid cocktails while our host Ian Truscott, a CMO but not a rockstar, picks his brain on a marketing topic.  This week, with a nod toward the Dude of the Big Lebowski, Robert keeps his Russian dark, and Ian asks what Robert makes of the trend for fractional marketing leadership. Key talking points this week: The term 'fractional' may be more of a sell-side term than a buy-side term. Independent consultants are increasingly preferred over large agencies. AI is disrupting traditional consulting roles, emphasizing the need for individual expertise. Understanding the job to be done is crucial.

From Scream Queens to Final Girls, women have been at the center of horror cinema since its rise in the late 60s. Violence on screen mirrored the violence real women faced off screen. From the allusions to reproductive control in Rosemary’s Baby, to the undertones of domestic violence in The Shining, horror’s female protagonists cannot be divorced from political and social commentary. In her new book “Scream with Me: Horror Films and the Rise of American Feminism (1968-1980), Eleanor Johnson, professor of English and comparative literature at Columbia University, views some of our most popular scary movies through a feminist lens. And once you see the themes of women’s oppression, it’s hard to look at a horror film the same way again. This week on FilmWeek, Larry speaks with Johnson about her new book and reanalyze some horror classics together.

Hi, loves! Welcome back to The Awakening Her Podcast.  Today we're talking about the stage called The Shift — that pivotal moment when the risk to remain the same finally outweighs the risk it takes to blossom. We change our lens, throw our hands up and say “enough,” where we stop hiding from life and decide to become the deliberate creator of our reality. One of the most powerful lessons I've learned is that perception is everything. How we interpret what happens in our lives shapes our reality. Your perception is the lens through which you experience life. And you have the power to choose it. It doesn't matter what happens — it matters what you choose to make it mean. I am excited for you to dive in. In this episode I also share some updates for the show and my business.   MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE ✨ Life Of Magic - 21 Day Quantum Upgrade Experience - Join the 10/10 live round here! ✈️ 2026 Retreat Waitlist - Stay on the inside with the dates, location and waitlist only pricing! 

0:00 - Think about the KC Chiefs last season...they seemed mortal and beatable...and yet they kept winning somehow! That's how Brett feels about the Eagles this season. Is that a fair comparison? 20:22 - A Guardians player hit a foul ball DIRECTLY into a camera lens yesterday and it gave us possibly the cleanest glass-breaking sound effect of all time. 33:17 - Bill Schmidt stepped down as Rockies GM. What's next for the Rockies? Will they finally hire someone from outside the organization who knows how to make smart personnel decisions?

The Media Lens: Morocco's GenZ 212 Protests Expose Deep Inequalities by Radio Islam

Today I share a recent conversation I had with a two-time suicide loss survivor, including her beloved son Zack in Sept. 2024.Meet Zack's MomPatty Born is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, licensed massage therapist, and nurse coach-in-training who integrates mind-body care. A two-time suicide loss survivor—her ex-husband (2012) Cahrlie, and her 19-year-old son, Zachary (Sept 2024)—Patty speaks openly about grief, stigma, and what truly supports healing. Her mission: normalize mental health conversations in healthcare and everyday life, and honor Charlie and Zack through the work she does.What we discuss:Awareness as education: why information isn't enough without honest, ongoing (hard) conversations.Reaching in vs. waiting for a reach-out: how to show up—practically, consistently, without tiptoeing.Disconnection as a health issue: the social and communal fractures driving distress—and what rebuilds belonging.Mental health is health: integrating mind-body care and making support an ordinary part of life, not a crisis add-on.Broadening risk: suicide can touch any family; dismantling stereotypes and widening our “who might need help” lens.Inner-circle codes: creating a shared signal for “I need to talk” vs. “I really need to talk”—and how to respond.Trauma aftercare: recognizing trauma (acute and cumulative) and the long-tail support people actually need.Parenting and loss: honoring Charlie and Zack while navigating meaning, purpose, and the day-to-day.Healthcare culture shifts: what clinicians can do differently tomorrow to reduce shame and increase safety.At the core, this episode insists that connection is protective—and that we can't wait for people to reach out; we have to reach in. Make help easy with clear signals and simple plans, and treat trauma care like rehab: structured, paced, and long-term. Ditch stereotypes about “who's at risk,” widen the lens, and talk about mental health the way we talk about any health—openly, without shame. That's how we honor the people we've lost and keep showing up for the ones still here.

Send us a text"When someone asks you where you're from, what's the first thing that comes to mind?" This seemingly simple question opens a window into the complex world of cultural identity for Caribbean people living in diaspora communities. Your answer likely depends on who's asking, where they're asking, and your unique migration journey.The Caribbean Diaspora Experience Model (CDEM) provides a way for understanding how our cultural identities form and evolve outside the region. Unlike academic theories, this model emerges from real lived experiences – my own family's migration story, countless conversations with community members, and insights gathered through years of podcast interviews. It offers six interconnected lenses that help us articulate what many have felt but struggled to express about our complex cultural journeys.In this deep dive into the first lens – "Where You Start Shapes the Journey" – we explore how your starting point profoundly influences your relationship with Caribbean culture. Whether you migrated as an adult with established cultural connections, came during formative teenage years like I did at 14, arrived as a young child with few concrete memories, or were born in the diaspora with varying degrees of cultural connection, each starting point creates a different foundation with unique challenges and strengths. The model acknowledges that even within families, different starting points create entirely different relationships to culture. My brothers and I all left Jamaica together, yet our age differences mean we each carry very different connections to our homeland.The model also considers what was happening when your cultural journey began – the decade, political climate, and social context that shaped how freely Caribbean culture could be expressed in your new home. Someone who migrated during the dancehall explosion of the 1990s had vastly different opportunities for cultural expression than someone who arrived during earlier decades when Caribbean cultural visibility was more limited in diaspora spaces.Understanding your starting point isn't about determining who is "more Caribbean" – it's about gaining clarity on your unique journey and extending grace to others whose experiences differ from yours. As we continue exploring the remaining lenses in future episodes, you'll discover how location, cultural anchors, identity shifts, professional expression, and embracing multiplicity all build upon the foundation established by where you began.How has your starting point shaped your cultural journey? Reflect on this question as we continue unpacking the language and framework that helps us make sense of our beautiful, complex Caribbean diaspora experience.

On this episode of Talking Church, Logan sits down with Marty Solomon, founder of BEMA Discipleship, to wrestle with “deconstruction” and how pastors can guide people toward a historically informed, Jewish lens that reconstructs faith around Jesus. They explore asking hard questions without losing orthodoxy—from Genesis to Paul, paradox to the Holy Spirit—and how to measure teaching by its fruit, not just its system. It's a thoughtful, multi-denominational conversation full of practical language for shepherding a confused body, strengthening resilient faith, and discipling believers in the real world.

WE ARE BACK!!!!!!!!In this banger of a conversation, Ryley and Doc Brown delve into the profound themes surrounding the Tower of Babel, exploring its implications in biblical history and its relevance today.

The lens of perception--the part of human consciousness that experiences reality--is a core concept in virtually every spiritual and psychological tradition, from ancient Buddhism to Native American shamanism to Jungian psychology. Hal Zina Bennett proposes that if we can comprehend and harness this consciousness, we can shape our experiences and fulfill our greatest potential. By deconstructing the inner workings of the human mind, this skillfully written book unravels the Gordian knot of reality itself. A guided tour of human consciousness that takes the reader from individual self-awareness to becoming the co-creator of reality. An underground cult favorite that was way ahead of its time, reissued as a New Thought classic in a freshly revised third edition. Thanks to the success of the film What the Bleep Do We Know!?, which has grossed over $12 million and inspired hundreds of online discussion groups, "alternative consciousness" is hot again. Hal Zina Bennett, PhD, is the bestselling author of 26 successful books, His work covers a wide range of topics including creativity, health, popular anthropology, human consciousness research, personal and spiritual development, fiction and poetry. A graduate in Language Arts/Creative Writing from San Francisco State University, he holds a Masters degree in Holistic Health Science, and a PhD in Psychology. His doctoral dissertation on the psychology of intuition was published as three popular books under the titles:"The Lens of Perception;" "Inner Guides, Visions, Dreams & Dr. Einstein," and "Mind Jogger: A Problem Solving Companion." He is the co-author and/or developmental editor for more than 20 books, several of them being international bestsellers. These include: The Well Body Book; Be Well; The Holotropic Mind; Move Into Life; Change Your Questions, Change Your Life; Kids Beyond Limits; and Teaching That Changes Lives.

Core 52: New Lens "Love"

It has been a couple of weeks but the gang finally got back together to devote an entire episode to one of our favorite, and longest lived camera brands, the Ihagee Exakta.  If you are familiar with the Exakta name, you probably know them as a maker of high end, but very quirky 35mm SLRs, however there were far more Exaktas produced in the 20th century using three different forms of film and nine different lens mounts.  In Episode 98, the Camerosity Podcast hosts do their best to try and corral all those models and history into a single episode. Joining Anthony, Stephen, Paul, and Mike are returning and first time callers Daniel from Chicago, Eric Lorenz, Fernando Villava, Howard Sandler, Ira Cohen, Michael Boudreau, Mike Toppo, Pat Casey, and Phil Clark. We were unable to find an expert who could speak intelligently on the history and wide range of Exakta models made, so Mike did his best to cover the history, starting with how the company formed, and we go (mostly) in chronological order from the first 127 Vest Pocket Exaktas, the Night Exaktas, the early Kine Exaktas, into the Varex models, the redesigned VX1000 and Elbeflex models, and into the weeds with uncommon cameras like the Exakta Real, Exakta Twin TL, and some other Japanese and Chinese made models. In addition to the Ihagee Exakta, we also dedicate a bit of time to the Exakta's little brother, the Exa, covering that models strengths and weaknesses.  We attempt to explain how the shutter on early Exas work, and Mike tells a story of a hard to find "System Exa" that's not even made by Ihagee at all. Many questions were asked with varying levels of good answers, including how many lens mounts can be found on an Exakta camera, how many different companies produced Exakta cameras, what is the best introduction to the Exakta lineup, and whether or not Exaktas are good for shooting or just for collecting.  We even spend some time on the infamous Exaka with 400mm Kilfitt lens found in the Hollywood classic movie, Rear Window. And just to round it all off, we spend the end of the episode on the Topcon SLRs which use the Exakta mount, including whether all lenses are fully compatible between the two company's models. As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you!  Please don't feel like you have to be an expert on a specific type of camera, or have the level of knowledge on par with other people on the show.  We LOVE people who are into shooting or collecting cameras, no matter how long you've been doing it, so please don't consider your knowledge level to be a prerequisite for joining! The guys and I rarely know where each episode is going to go until it happens, so if you'd like to join us on a future episode, be sure to look out for our show announcements on our Camerosity Podcast Facebook page, the Camerosity Discord server, and right here on mikeeckman.com. We usually record every other Monday and announcements, along with the Zoom link are typically shared 2-3 days in advance. The last several episodes of the show have been wonderfully exciting and informational.  We've had a huge number of guests, many of whom are first time callers who joined a long list of people who have contributed to this show.  And while all the hosts enjoy chatting with all of you, we haven't had an episode to ourselves in a while, so for Episode 99, we are not taking any callers.  We want to spend this time to get caught up on what we've been doing, share with you some of the private discussions we have behind closed doors, but mostly, we're looking for an episode that's easier to edit. Don't worry though, for the next, next episode, we hit triple digits, episode number 100.  It gives me chills just typing that here.  We will be looking for something special for our centennial episode and once we know what that is, and what date we are recording it, we will be sure to let you all know!  Until then, Episode 99 will be recorded sometime in early October.

In this episode, host James Cox— himself a resilient, hands‑on survivor of depression—welcomes a multifaceted friend, Tommy Giorlando. Tommy's journey threads together three passions that seem worlds apart yet perfectly in sync:A lifelong love of music – From teen garage‑band mischief with Opus Podunk, through the folk‑pirate vibes of Boca Musica, to newly‑released pop‑punk tracks like “Bad Intentions.” He'll share the wildest tour memories—like a dreamy canal cruise in Giethoorn, the spontaneous shanty sing‑alongs with international musicians, and the hypnotic crowd‑choreography of his old Opus Podunk finale.The science of sound – Tommy explains how certain frequencies can coax the brain into alpha‑ and theta‑states, making the stage feel like a trance. He'll reveal how he weaves droning ambience, chimes, and even the Benny Hill theme into his comedy‑hypnosis shows, turning ordinary listeners into foot‑tappers, face‑dancers, and even accidental Irish river‑dancers.A faith‑based take on hypnosis – As a committed Christian, Tommy has wrestled with the theological controversy surrounding mind‑work. He'll discuss his newly published book Transformed: Hypnosis Through the Lens of Scripture, the ethical line suggestion and control, and how modern research (even a Harvard study on bone‑healing) proves hypnosis is a neutral tool—like a hammer—shaped by the hands that wield it.Carrying the torch of the Tom Silver Foundation – After a poignant mentorship with the late hypnosis pioneer Tom Silver, Tommy now serves on the board of the nonprofit dedicated to spreading scientifically‑backed hypnotherapy to underserved communities, funding free pain‑relief sessions, and training medical professionals worldwide.Go to the Tom Silver Foundation website here:https://www.tomsilverfoundation.orgVisit Tommy's website here:https://www.likeahypnotist.comAll of this is wrapped in genuine friendship, a few off‑the‑cuff jokes about favorite bands (Beatles, Nirvana, Korn, Linkin Park), and a heartfelt moment when Tommy reveals the one song that still brings him to tears—Chris Tomlin's “Holy Forever.”Tune in to discover how music can crack open the doors of the subconscious, lift the weight of depression, and turn a simple beat into a bridge between science, spirituality, and pure human connection. When words fail, music—and a good dose of hypnotic rhythm—speaks.

SummaryIn this episode of the Neuroveda podcast, host Gillian Ehrlich engages with Dr. John Berner, a Harvard-trained psychologist and neuroscientist, to explore the intricate relationship between mind and body in the context of mental health. They discuss the limitations of traditional medical silos, the importance of cellular communication, and the role of hormones in health. Dr. Berner introduces the concept of intersectionality in psychiatric treatment, emphasizing the need for personalized approaches. The conversation also delves into innovative treatments like rapamycin and the significance of understanding cellular interactions through advanced technologies.TakeawaysMind-body medicine should not separate mental and physical health.The shift from Newtonian to quantum thinking is crucial in medicine.Cellular communication is a localized and complex process.Hormones play a central role in coordinating bodily functions.Understanding evolutionary constraints can inform health practices.Intersectionality is key in treating mental health conditions.Rapamycin shows promise in extending lifespan and improving health.Eavesdropping on cellular conversations can enhance treatment strategies.Innovative technologies can measure cellular responses effectively.Biology is complex and cannot be simplified into binary categories.BioDr. Jon Berner, a Harvard-trained psychologist, UCLA-trained neuroscientist and physician, and University of Washington–trained psychiatrist. With over 25 years in clinical practice, his work bridges rigorous neuroscience, psychiatry, and compassionate patient care. Dr. Berner's publications span from the cognitive effects of cocaine and memory in schizophrenia to pioneering treatments with ketamine, rapamycin, and novel metabolomic approaches for mood and pain disorders. He brings a unique lens—uniting neural networks, biochemistry, and clinical psychiatry—to reimagine how we treat complex mental health conditions with both precision and humanity.

A point-of-view character's experience of the world will shape the information that the reader gets about that world. So, a lot depends on who that character -- or characters -- might be! How can you turn their knowledge -- or lack thereof -- into a plot hook? Does the audience have information before a POV character does? How does their personality affect how information gets communicated to the reader? Guest Martin Cahill joins us to discuss! We also chat about one-off POVs, the context added by interstitial material and ephemera, and whether or not it's possible to write a story from the point of view of a dress.

HIPAA is no longer the only rule that matters in healthcare privacy. State laws, FTC enforcement, and even wiretapping lawsuits are reshaping what health systems can and cannot do with data — and AI is adding another layer of complexity. In this episode, hosts Chris Boyer and Reed Smith explore: Beyond HIPAA: How state privacy laws and enforcement actions are redefining what “compliance” means for digital marketing. Wiretapping lawsuits: Why session replay, chat tools, and pixels are pulling hospitals into new liability risks. AI oversight: Where AI introduces opportunity in marketing workflows, and where it creates risk in advertising and personalization. Compliance as differentiator: How health systems can turn responsible AI and privacy practices into trust-building brand advantages.  In our expert interview segment, Jennifer Everett and Jen Pike from Alston & Bird share their legal perspective on HIPAA's gaps, state law proliferation, FTC enforcement, and what marketers should expect next in AI regulation. Why this matters today: Marketing leaders can no longer treat privacy as an afterthought. Success will depend on integrating legal frameworks and AI governance directly into digital strategy.

Augustin Fresnel didn’t live a long life, but he contributed significantly to the understanding of light and to the safety of coastlines. Neither of those had anything to do with his career.
