    What happens when you're crushing your break, feeling better than you have in years, but that little voice starts whispering, "Okay, but what about day 31?" In this episode, Coaches Soraya and Hayley help two Path members figure out exactly that. Christine opens up about her "Hellcat" pattern of achievement and escape, learning how to stay on track after a 30-day alcohol break by understanding the anxiety underneath it all. Alex discovers he doesn't need a task to check off—he can follow how good he feels as his GPS. These conversations get real about navigating life beyond the break, being with uncomfortable feelings, and building momentum that lasts. In Christine's session: Understanding binge drinking cycles as responses to anxiety and perfectionism Learning how to stay on track after a 30 day alcohol break by addressing underlying emotions Why seeking worthiness through external validation fuels the urge to escape The "Hellcat" pattern of going full speed then crashing with alcohol to decompress Discovering anxiety isn't the enemy—it's a signal asking for attention and care Tools for being with uncomfortable emotions instead of numbing or escaping them How transforming your relationship with anxiety breaks the drinking cycle And more breakthroughs about worthiness, self-compassion, and finding calm... In Alex's Session: Why day 31 feels more uncertain than day 30 when the break structure ends Practical strategies for how to stay on track after a 30 day alcohol break using emotion-based goals The difference between completing tasks versus building a life you don't want to escape from How lengthening your break can provide vital feedback and create new goals Reframing potential setbacks from disappointment to curiosity and valuable data points Choosing "renewed" over "horrible" and why emotional shifts drive lasting change And more insights...

    NEWS WEAKLY 202, 28 Feb 2026Episode title: Difficulty Level: NationalHello and welcome to News Weakly, where we punch the news in the headlines weakly. This week, the world is in multiple active spirals, but Australia has bravely chosen to centre a word association game like it is the Cuban Missile Crisis with better catering.Top Stories of the Week1) Things get difficult for AlboAnthony Albanese describes Grace Tame as “difficult” during a Herald Sun conference word association game, and suddenly the nation discovers that adjectives can carry freight. The real story is not just the word, it is what the word has historically meant when men apply it to women, and how quickly a flimsy media moment becomes a full week of moral theatre. Then Tame responds on Instagram, politicians demand titles be stripped, commentators run their diagnostics, and Australia convinces itself it is doing political analysis while mostly doing a social media reading comprehension test.2) Geneva Conventionally InsaneThe US and Iran meet in Geneva for indirect nuclear talks, mediated by Oman, with messages passed back and forth like divorced parents refusing to make eye contact at a school recital. Everyone says they want to avoid war while moving military hardware around like it is a hobby. The argument is about enrichment and rebuilding, but the anxiety sits in the region, especially Lebanon, where Hezbollah and Israel both know how quickly “posturing” turns into “miscalculation.”3) Can we ban all teenagersNSW Police data records 197 incidents of anti LGBTQIA+ hate related violence since 2023, with a disturbing pattern of teenage boys luring victims on dating and hook up apps, then assaulting and robbing them, sometimes filming it. The ideology varies, the method does not. Extremism is a franchise model now. Different uniforms, same obsession, same fixation on queer bodies as a site for performance, humiliation, and cruelty.Quote of the Week“We are treating a throwaway word in a word game as if it were a constitutional crisis.”Support the showYou can back the show on Patreon.com/samishah.

    Rencontre avec Julien Princesse Didier, co-traducteurice et préfacier·e du livre, Sorcellerie et contre-culture gay d'Arthur Evans, publié aux éditions du Passager Clandestin.Dans cet essai audacieux publié en 1978, Arthur Evans revisite l'histoire occidentale depuis ses marges. De l'Antiquité à l'époque coloniale, en passant par le Moyen Âge, il retrace l'essor d'une civilisation patriarcale et capitaliste qui n'a cessé de traquer, d'effacer et de domestiquer toute forme de liberté sexuelle et de transgression de genre.Face à cette normalisation violente, Evans exhume une contreculture longtemps occultée, fondée sur des pratiques religieuses, sociales et sexuelles enracinées dans la nature, la sensualité et l'insoumission. De figures mythiques en rites interdits, il esquisse une généalogie des résistances queers à la répression.Alors que les discriminations envers les personnes LGBTQIA+ persistent, voire s'aggravent, cette traduction inédite résonne comme un appel à renouer avec nos ancêtres queers et à raviver notre esprit de subversion.Saison #6 : Univers graphique : Mirion Malle | Habillage sonore : Pierre-Antoine Naline, accompagné de la chorale Dònas d'Òlt d'après le chant La Rota composé par Nadèta Carita | À la conversation et à la réalisation : Soazic Courbet.

    For this Out Takes, we celebrated the release of two highly anticipated queer films for February that celebrate the diversity of our community, the importance of representation and the ability for LGBTQIA+ folks to tell our own stories in an authentic way while still been given the opportunity to have them out in the mainstream. First up was ‘Jimpa’, the latest film from Adelaide based writer, producer and director Sophie Hyde. Inspired by Hyde’s own life with a direct link to her gay activist father Jim, this film is a multi-generational queer family story starring award-winning favourites Olivia Colman and John Lithgow plus it introduces us to the extraordinary talents of Aud Mason-Hyde. Along with our review of ‘Jimpa’, we were delighted to be joined in the JOY studios by Sophie and Hyde where we covered a wide range of topics and themes including how this very personal story developed into a feature film, how audiences have responded to the performances and characters, plus we discuss the connection that their father and grandfather Jim Hyde had to JOY and his impact in the queer community. We then reviewed ‘Pillion’, the debut feature film from British director Harry Lighton that tells the story of Colin (Harry Melling) who lives a small, carefully ordered life with his parents until Ray (Alexander Skarsgård), the charismatic leader of a gay biker gang, claims him as his submissive. Drawn into Ray’s world of leather, ritual, and unspoken codes, Colin awakens to intoxicating new dimensions of desire and belonging and the film traces the ecstatic and uncomfortable contours of a dom-sub relationship that evolves into something far deeper – a meditation on identity, control, and the unsettling shapes devotion takes when boundaries dissolve. The post ‘Jimpa’ with special guests Sophie Hyde and Aud Mason Hyde plus ‘Pillion’ appeared first on Out Takes.

The Boys have reviewed the details of the controversial bill and are bringing you what you need to know in this week's Midsection.Conceptually it may all make sense -- and the talking points by it's supporters will have you believe it's about protecting election integrity and being sure non-citizens (read illegals) (and the dissenters) do not vote.  After looking into the bill, The Boys have found this bill is full of challenges to basic voting right among US citizens.  What are those challenges?   Who is affected by the proposed rules?  Also what about the timing? You'll get what you need to know and what you can and need to do about this dangerous and illegal bill.  Suffice it to say -- you gotta fight for your right (and the rights of everyone) to VOTE!!Kicking things off this week in The Tea Party, Casey and Mark are discussing some of the scoring at the Winter Olympics this year and the trash scoring that seems to happen season after season. In Trash Talk this week include the Scarecrow From Hell embarrasses herself not just with her terrible hair but her abhorrent behavior during a Congressional hearing; Jill Zarin is bac... wait -- just kidding, she's fired; and a new movie announces AI casting to bring a tubber back to the silver screen.All of this and recommendations too??  You betcha!  With all of this tea and discourse, you're gonna want a fresh diaper and a full glass of a tasty port vintage.  So grab yourself both and pull up a seat to the table with your GBFFs.  It's time to paint!=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-Let The Boys of Painted Trash know your thoughts on this week's topics and episode!

    65 – Fighting Stigma: Overcoming Stereotypes in the Workplace

    Blended

    Welcome back to Blended! Today, we're taking on a big topic – stigma and stereotypes.   As laws and recommendations continue to evolve at both federal and state levels, employers face an increasingly complex landscape. According to reports, some of the top challenges for employers in 2026 range from navigating compliance and whistleblowing, to dealing with issues around immigration and mental health and wellbeing. But, below all of this complexity, many employees find themselves dealing with versions of the same old problems. Stereotypes, stigma, and bias are still felt deeply by women, people of color, the LGBTQIA+ and disability communities, and more.  So, whilst the big battles are happening at federal and state level, what can the rest of us do to address what it all means for employees on a day-to-day basis? Our guests are going to be diving into all of that today, and exploring addressing stigma and overcoming stereotypes in your organization.    IN THIS EPISODE: [01.12] Introductions to our Blended panelists.   ·         Jenny – Chief Executive Officer at Catalais Consulting ·         Tedi – President and CEO at MI Diversity Center   ·         Robbin – Founder and CEO at Women Igniting Change   [04.58] The group share their personal experiences, and discuss what stereotypes and stigma really mean, how they show up in the workplace, and their impacts. ·         Gender-based stereotypes, eg. Emotion or working mothers ·         Credibility ·         Belonging ·         Negative perceptions ·         Unfounded truths ·         Assumptions ·         Judgement ·         Blame ·         Inherited beliefs and values ·         Influence of family, society and culture ·         Identity ·         Language – words have power ·         Dehumanization ·         Lived experience ·         Fear/self-protection ·         Privilege ·         Jenny's experience of immigration and assimilation ·         Limiting potential ·         Racism ·         Top down examples/leadership ·         Sources of information/disinformation ·         Asking questions ·         Doing due diligence ·         Control   ·         Us vs them narrative ·         Challenges of multigenerational workplaces ·         Right and wrong, true and false ·         Physical and mental impact ·         Intersectionality    ·         Active listening ·         Robbin's experience of reverse agism and stereotyping around her personality type ·         Misogyny ·         Tedi's experience of identity stereotyping ·         Bias – implicit and explicit, conscious and unconscious ·         Stereotyping and labels within individual communities "Someone who expresses passion and empathy in the workplace is often framed as too emotional, rather than that being seen as a leadership strength. To me, that's a stereotype… The stigma is when we start to internalize that." Robbin "There's no such thing as a true stereotype!" Tedi "Stereotypes are assumptions, shortcuts we take to understand others quickly. Stigma is what happens when those assumptions get loaded with judgement or consequence." Jenny "Our own unexamined beliefs and values tend to ooze out onto other people, either intentionally or unintentionally." Robbin "Privilege is not the issue – what we do with it is... Blind spots are the not issue – refusing to look at them, acknowledge them, and then learn and grow from them IS." Jenny [55.39] The panel explore how to tackle issues around stereotyping and stigma in the workplace.  ·         DEI mapping/auditing ·         Examining attitudes of leadership team and employees ·         Examining policies and practices ·         Tracking, meeting and celebrating goals/milestones ·         Awareness ·         Responsibility ·         Communication ·         Safety/culture  ·         Authenticity ·         Separation between work self and personal self ·         Accountability ·         Respect ·         Equality ·         Impact of current political climate ·         Transparency ·         Vulnerability ·         Value systems "It takes culture to create a safe container for those conversations. When I was in corporate, part of the management style was fear and intimidation. There was no way it was safe enough to have this kind of dialogue." Robbin "It comes down to our core values. If our core values, as human beings, are aligned, it's OK if we have different beliefs. As long as those beliefs don't diminish, harm or dehumanize anybody else based on their identity… Divisiveness is where we lose the ability to bridge our gaps in understanding of different perspectives and to have respectful dialogues." Jenny  "If we stop fixing people, and start redesigning our workplaces and systems… We can start moving the needle and meeting people where they are." Jenny  [01.13.45] The group sum up their thoughts from today's discussion.

    Nigel's guest today is David Archuleta. Singer David rose to national fame in 2008 as the runner-up on American Idol when he was just seventeen, captivating millions with his angelic voice. Behind the scenes, however, he was struggling with a truth he feared would destroy everything: he was attracted to men. David was also a devout member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day-Saints. The two things clashed brutally leading to shame, worthlessness and wanting to take his own life. Now a beautifully open queer man, his book Devout – Losing My Faith To Find Myself details the journey he has had to take to juggle his faith, fame and identity. It is a phenomenal and powerful read. This series is a celebration of a beautiful queer community; people of all ages, people who have had to tread their own path to live their real truth, who have fought with their emotions and emerged victorious, who inspire, who aspire and always entertain. Hosted by Nigel May. Every episode Nigel speaks to a person from the LGBTQIA+ rainbow to hear their story; one person, one life, one conversation.

    Does the urge to drink ever go away, or is it something you're stuck managing forever? In this Alcohol Freedom Coaching episode, Coach Hayley works with Mark, and Coach Soraya supports Michael as they share the real, messy middle of change. Mark talks about years of 30, 60, and 90-day breaks, the weight of the “alcoholic” label, and how an emotion-based goal—making alcohol immaterial in his life—finally eased the mental tug-of-war. Michael opens up about being 45 days alcohol-free, feeling “on display” in social situations, and tracing that discomfort back to a lifelong drive to fit in. These are the exact kinds of questions—about cravings, labels, and belonging—that get coached compassionately daily inside The Path. In Mark's session: Exploring if the urge to drink ever goes away through real-life data points Moving from “I'm an alcoholic who can't drink” to “alcohol is an addictive substance” Why time-based goals kept him chasing “normal drinking” Adopting an emotion-based goal: making alcohol immaterial in his life Using ACT and curiosity to meet cognitive dissonance instead of fighting it Noticing how cravings and thoughts faded dramatically by around 90 days Reclaiming mental real estate, time, and energy for what actually matters And more In Michael's session: Feeling like he has to explain his choice and wondering does the urge to drink ever go away Using an ankle injury as a temporary “cover story” while he builds confidence Linking his discomfort to a deep drive to fit in and avoid conflict Connecting current social anxiety to teen anorexia and years of trying to blend in Learning that friends' reactions often reveal their unease with alcohol Shifting from autopilot drinking to conscious “pilot” mode with curiosity and logic Letting the world adapt to his alcohol-free choice instead of shrinking himself And more Hayley Scherders is a certified TNM Coach with training from the Canadian Addiction and Mental Health Association. Drawing from personal experiences, Hayley understands how tough change can be and provides a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space where her clients can feel supported.

    Janet Walsh-Adams is a neurodivergent PhD candidate at Deakin University, researching a pattern that many autistic people have noticed for years: autistic adults may be more likely to pursue consensual non-monogamy (CNM). We talk about what CNM is (and what it isn't) and how stigma — not the relationship style itself — often creates the biggest risks.Janet shares personal context alongside early findings from her work, including how autism, ADHD, gender diversity, and LGBTQIA+ identity can overlap with relationship structures like CNM, polyamory, kink/BDSM, and relationship anarchy. We also dig into what clinicians still need to learn (and unlearn) about autistic intimacy, and what Janet hopes her research will change — especially when it comes to safety and autonomy.Topics explored include:What consensual non-monogamy actually means (polyamory, monogamish, swinging, and more)Why autistic people are so often miscast as uninterested in intimacy and where myths like these come fromAutism + ADHD overlap, AuDHD, sensation seeking, and moreGender diversity and LGBTQIA+ culture as key factors in relationship stylesWhich group reports higher infidelity — autistics or neurotypicals?Why breakups in non-monogamous relationships aren't "proof they don't work"Watch this episode on YouTube.Follow Janet on LinkedIn.If you'd like to know more about topics discussed in this episode, check out:"Sexuality, Gender, and Autism" by K.

Strap-on energy, group-scene madness, and taboo territory that somehow stays hilarious.We get into her collab with Gia Derza, why she proudly leans into being a hairy creator (bush, pits, all of it), and how she thinks about exploring without shame while still owning her boundaries. Towards the end of the episode we get into the wild stuff fans ask for on OnlyFans — but this episode is truly all about Chloe being Chloe: bold, unfiltered, and out of control.Strap in, strap on, strap down and enjoy EP 212: "Cross The Streams" with Chloe Kreams.Watch the video version of the show on YouTube YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIuCkOl_XummXVdu1t3XOuQFollow Chloe Kreams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chloe_kreams (@chloe_kreams)Follow the showInstagram: https://instagram.com/sexparty.fm (@sexparty.fm)Twitter: https://twitter.com/sexpartyfm (@sexpartyfm)Follow Dustin Instagram: https://instagram.com/dustin.rybka (@dustin.rybka)Twitter: https://twitter.com/dustinrybka (@dustinrybka)Sex Party with Dustin Rybka

    PBS's INDEPENDENT LENS, the film follows a courageous network of besieged librarians as they unite to examine how book restriction policies are shaping library collections. “The Librarians” takes viewers from Texas to Florida and beyond, where local libraries have become unexpected battlegrounds in a national struggle over parental control, intellectual freedom, and democracy itself. Sparked by the controversial “Krause List” in Texas, which targets 850 books centered on race and LGBTQIA+ stories, the film takes a deep investigative dive into the escalating movement against book banning. The film captures the courage and resilience of the everyday heroes, librarians, as well as concerned parents and students flanking them, who have become first responders in the fight for the freedom to read, standing defiantly against censorship at all costs.Director/Producer Kim A. Snyder is the Peabody Award-winning filmmaker of “Newtown” (Sundance 2016, INDEPENDENT LENS, Netflix), “Us Kids” (Sundance 2020 and 14 subsequent awards), “Lessons from a School Shooting…” (Tribeca 2018–Best Documentary Short, Netflix Original, Grierson Award nominee), and “Welcome to Shelbyville” (INDEPENDENT LENS). For more info, visit:https://www.pbs.org/independentlens/documentaries/the-librarians/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

    Living high throughout the 1960s and early ‘70s filled Suzi's life with glitter, dazzle, and celebrities who sadly, broke her heart. As a luxury designer of women's clothing in New York, Suzi was sought after by big name clothiers. This is Suzi's life: from design to yoga to memoirist to children's tales. She always chooses “gratitude over grumpy” and carries with her learnings from Krishna, which hold her steady while living a life in which “nothing stays the same”. “What people forget about when they're living their lives is that everyone dies. “I don't want to waste time with anything negative.” Suzi's latest adventures include The Doggos, her 6-book children's series about the love that dogs bring to children's lives. As a digital artist, Suzi creates all the beautiful illustrations herself. “After success, my whole sense of self changed.” - Suzi K Edwards CONNECT WITH SUZI: Email: suzikedwards@gmail.com.

    A selfie of a beautiful couple posted to Instagram. A whispered secret exposed. And a queer icon found stabbed to death just 24 hours after lawmakers passed a massive anti-LGBTQ bill.When Georgian transgender model, actor and influencer Kesaria Abramidze posted a photo to her Instagram that publicly acknowledged her relationship, some say it triggered a fatal rage in her closeted partner, leading to her stabbing in her Tbilisi apartment. That killing came just one day after Georgia's parliament passed a sweeping anti-LGBTQIA+ bill that critics say entrenches stigma and emboldens hostility toward queer people, fueling fear that what might have been dismissed as domestic violence is actually entangled with state-sanctioned dehumanization of LGBTQIA+ lives. In this episode we explore who Kesaria was, the significance of that selfie and the dynamics of her relationship, and how her death became a flashpoint in ongoing debates about queer history, hate, and justice in a country where anti-LGBTQIA+ laws and rhetoric are on the rise.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light all with a cold one in hand. Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover not just a murder, but the cultural forces that shaped it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
