Dana Cardinas loved podiatry, and she was damn good at it. But a surprise diagnosis of idiopathic ulnar neuropathy, followed by a shocking discovery of Stage 3C colon cancer, forced her to step away from the profession she adored. In this episode, Dana opens up about how she handled early retirement, battled cancer, and found purpose again through helping others and launching a new business, 1 Stop Promotional Products. From laughing down clinic hallways to launching a neuropathy support group that's changing lives in Colontown, Dana proves that purpose doesn't end with a job title. If you're a podiatrist, business owner, or just someone navigating life's curveballs, this conversation is for you.

The podcast designed to help you feel, see, and think differently about the Podiatry profession. With me today is an old friend, well...not that old. We've only known each other for about 12 years. It is Dana Cardinas, and we met in 2013 in Nashville, Tennessee, at REM Jackson's top practices. But our friendship got bonded even more from about 2015 onwards, when we were at Dave Free's business Black Ops event, which people have heard that I go to on a regular basis. So Dana, how you doing today? Dana Cardinas: I'm so good. I'm so happy to be here, Tyson. Thank you. Oh my gosh, I'm so excited. Tyson E Franklin: I knew you'd bring the energy and I should mention to people that Dana lives in Texas, so there is a slight accent. Dana Cardinas: Yes, most definitely. And I apologize for my attire today. I literally just got out of the pool. It's hot and it's summertime and it was pool time tonight, so, yes. Tyson E Franklin: [00:01:00] So are you born and bred Texan? Dana Cardinas: Yeah, I was born and raised in central Texas. Yes. On a ranch. 300 acre ranch? Tyson E Franklin: I have seen photos of you driving tractors. Dana Cardinas: Yes. Yeah. So most recently convinced my dad to teach me how to drive the bulldozer. So finally was able to get on that machine after 50 something years. Tyson E Franklin: He wouldn't let you drive it? Dana Cardinas: No. He's very protective of that thing, so understandably he didn't want me to take it out any fences, but I did pretty good for my first go. Tyson E Franklin: So what we're gonna be talking about today, I'm gonna tell give people a bit of a rundown. We're gonna talk about what got you into Podiatry and also what got you out of Podiatry and what you're currently doing now, which I think is pretty cool. So yeah, let's go to that first question. Why Podiatry? How did you get into Podiatry in the first place? Dana Cardinas: So I always, my entire life, since I was wee little, I wanted to be a doctor. I didn't have a specific profession. I just knew I wanted to be a [00:02:00] doctor. But as I went through undergrad and spent time shadowing different professions I narrowed down things that I didn't wanna do. I knew I didn't wanna do certain things, and after I graduated from undergrad I needed, I just needed some time to figure out what was gonna be next. While I was studying for my MCATs, getting ready to, try to get into med school. And I worked in a large Podiatry practice in Carrollton, Texas. And I loved it. I absolutely loved it. And I started, just in their front office answering phones. I needed a job to pay bills, and I went from answering phones to being a medical assistant because I was very interested in what they were doing back there. And at one point, one of the docs pulled me aside and said, Dana, you need to do [00:03:00] this for a living because you're diagnosing and treating my patients. And really, you should be paid for it if you're gonna do it. And I, and we had a long talk about it, and I really picked his brain about why he wanted to be a Podiatry. Yeah. What did he get outta it? Why did he like it? And what was happening in Podiatry that I didn't see and what did I not know? I really wanted to know about it. Tyson E Franklin: That's a really good question though that you asked because Yeah. I do think sometimes when people are choosing careers or even when they're in Podiatry now and they may have only been in for a couple of years and go, oh, I don't know if I should keep doing this. They need to talk to people. Yeah. Even if they'd send an email and say, can we jump on a Zoom call with someone like myself, it's been in the profession for well over 30 years is reach out to those people and say, why are you, why did you stay in this profession for so long? When I feel like giving it away after two or three years. Dana Cardinas: Right. And he and that is key, honestly for any profession. Honestly. I think it's reaching out to people in your [00:04:00] profession and asking them, if you're burned out, find out, what's the other person doing that They love it so much, that they can help you. But this practice had seven docs in it. I talked to all of them and they all had such good things to say about the specialty. They loved it. And that from a doc that had been out for two years to, I wanna say, the one doc that started the group had been out for 30 something years. So at the time, so like they were in it, they loved it, they loved the business side of it, but they loved treating the patients. Just the whole aspect of it. Yeah. So that's when I said, okay I'm doing this because I really liked it. I just, I loved the idea that you could see a patient. And maybe fix their problem right away. Maybe it was just a simple ingrow toenail boom, you fixed it and they feel better. Or you could offer them something that wasn't [00:05:00] surgically, related like orthotics or just talking to them about improved running, anything like that could just make them feel better almost instantly. But then there was also that other side of it for me that really grabbed my attention was. Taking something structural that wasn't working right and fixing it so that they could function either without pain or more appropriately. So, that, that was a big draw for me. That was my draw. Okay. 'cause that was, I loved working with my hands. Again, I grew up. That way. I didn't grow up in the city. I grew up on a farm and we fixed things and so I, that was my track. And so that's how I got into Podiatry. So I applied to four or five different schools. And so I ended up going to Temple University of Philadelphia. Which blew my mind. I was not from a [00:06:00] size of a city that big, so that was like, a culture shock for this West Texas girl. But I loved it. I loved every bit of it. I just soaked it up. I traveled while I was there a ton, but I also made such great friends, but I really. I really just dove right in it, man. I dove right in it. I wanted to know everything about Podiatry and loved it. Went to residency back here in Texas, so a year in San Antonio, and then two years with lake Great Sam Mendocino in Houston. God rest that guy. But from that point knew that, okay, this is where I was supposed to be. Yeah. This is what I was supposed to be doing. And then ended up in practice in Grapevine, fantastic practice in Grapevine and we grew that practice to two locations actually. So we had one in Grapevine and one in Keller. So I joined Foot Ankle Associates of North Texas and then ended up [00:07:00] becoming a partner there about a year and a half after I joined. So yeah, it was awesome. Loved it. And that's Tyson E Franklin: where you were, right up through to you finishing? Dana Cardinas: Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. And I really didn't have plans of retiring when I did, yeah. I just didn't have an option. Tyson E Franklin: We'll get to that in a sec. But the one thing I noticed when I first met you too and why we've probably remained friends is I've always loved your energy. And if, and I'm sure people whether watching the video on YouTube or they're listening to the podcast, they can pick up your energy. Yes. And I would say that was a big part of what made you a good Podiatry too. You took that energy into the room. Dana Cardinas: I did. I who I am is exactly who I was when I walked into a patient's room. It didn't matter if you were three years old or 103 years old, you got the same me. And we smiled and we laughed and we talked about [00:08:00] your life not mine. And we talked about your kids and your family and I got to know you. And when some of my patients hit huge milestones in their treatment, whether that be my diabetic patients when we healed ulcers or we saved limb. Or my ankle fracture patients, when they could actually put their boots back on and go back to work. We would dance down the halls. Yeah, we would party down the hall. That's who I was. And that's, you got this when you came to see me, which was usually quite a mess, let me tell you that. It was fun. Tyson E Franklin: I just love it. And you worked for a couple of years at the practice that you ended up becoming a partner in, was that always part of your plan to become a partner or you never even thought about that? It took you by surprise that they wanted this loud text and, Hey, by the way, is everyone in Texas loud? Dana Cardinas: No. Tyson E Franklin: No. Okay. Most Dana Cardinas: of us are. Yes. [00:09:00] Yes. Most of us are. There are just some that are a little louder than others. But yeah. Yes. Tyson E Franklin: Are you one of the louder ones? Dana Cardinas: Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. Okay. Just checking. Just wanted to check, just see. So I'm prepared in December. Get ready man. Tyson E Franklin: So, so when they approached you by buying in the practice, were you sort of like, yeah, that's great. That's what I was hoping would happen. Or did it take by surprise? Dana Cardinas: I think timing wise took me by surprise 'cause it happened a little sooner than what I thought. But the way the three of us at the time, there was only three of us. We just were, we jelled so well together that it just seemed like a natural fit for that to happen. And so it, it was perfect timing. And I, in residency, you always heard, oh, you wanna be a partner in a practice, that's where you wanna head. And now looking back on it and talking to other, my residency mates that were not partners in a [00:10:00] practice because they chose not to go that route, that it didn't fit their lifestyle. So I would say anybody listening, you don't feel like if you're not a partner, you're not successful by any means. Yeah. It just might not be the track that it fits your life for us. In that particular moment, it was perfect. It was the right scenario for us to do that. And it worked out phenomenal. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah I think that's a really good point because I think some people meant to be business owners, like I was always meant to work for myself . I just always knew that was gonna happen. And the funny part is. Neither of my parents owned their own business. Nobody in my family that I even know had their own business. So why I was that way. I have no idea that was just me. Yeah. But I think there's certain people that they should never own their own business. They should stay as employees because they are really good employees. Yeah. And what, like you said too, it's a different level of pressure you get when you are actually the business owner that when you're an employee, [00:11:00] you go away on your four weeks holiday, you don't have to think about anything. Dana Cardinas: Yeah, right. Tyson E Franklin: Two weeks in America, you only get two weeks holiday in America, don't you? Dana Cardinas: It depends on how much you negotiate, man. Tyson E Franklin: But in general. In general, in America, two weeks is all you get. Dana Cardinas: Depends. Most of the docs that we, you know, when we brought in docs as associates, we gave them three weeks in the beginning. So I, that's pretty good. Tyson E Franklin: But yeah, two weeks in, in Australia. In Australia, mandatory, four, four weeks holiday. Dana Cardinas: I honestly, I'm not gonna lie, everybody should move to Australia. Numerous reasons just to like hear you guys speak all the time. But if you can get four weeks automatic man, sign me up. Tyson E Franklin: Being an employer, you used to sometimes go, god dammit, when people are on holidays. But as a society, I think it's a fantastic thing because you need to have those mental breaks away from your business. And this is a problem that business owners don't do, is they work from morning [00:12:00] till night. They don't take holidays, they do it year after year and they burn themselves out. And I think you've gotta have that break. Dana Cardinas: Right. And it's hard as a business owner to take the break. It's hard to walk away 'cause you're you get in this, in your mind that, I'm not making any money if I'm not there and if I've got to have the money so I can't take off. You just get into that cycle, but when you take the time away is when you have clarity and you can think, and then you usually end up making better decisions, which make you more money in the long run. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah I remember my first, we, I'd take a week off here and there but it wasn't until, I think it was 2012. I took my first three week break. Away from clinic, went overseas, went to America, did the trifecta of Disneyland, Las Vegas, and then San Francisco. Dana Cardinas: Oh my gosh. That's amazing. Tyson E Franklin: And I had a daughter with us and my wife and [00:13:00] we went with another family. Had such a good trip. I came back to work and nothing had changed. Everyone was still working, in fact. Right. They were probably enjoying me not being there better. And from that year onwards, I realized I can take time off. So I was taking two, three week holidays a couple of times a year. Never looked back. Right, right. So I think you gotta trust, you gotta trust your team. Dana Cardinas: Yeah. And that's it too, like. If you build a team that you've trained well, they know what they're doing. They know how to handle the situations, and they know how, like who to call when they don't know the answer. Like that situation's gonna come up. But when you've got that training in place. Oh, you can leave. Trust me. They want you to go, they want you to go. They do, but you're getting cranky and you're getting agitated and they want you out as much as you need to take a [00:14:00] break. Tyson E Franklin: Oh, yeah. But I totally get it. And I totally understand if someone is a solo practitioner and they feel that they can't do it. But I think if you're a solo practitioner, go back to one of my earliest episodes on this podcast. It was episode 10 with Andrew Snyder and it's running a successful solo practice. This guy is the most relate. He's been doing this for 30 years or something. Now. Love that guy. Solo practitioner. Tyson E Franklin: Has never employed another Podiatry. He goes to Disneyland more often than anybody else I know, right? Right. Tyson E Franklin: If you're a solo practitioner, go back and listen to episode 10 because it will change the way you think about having a solo practice. Dana Cardinas: Yeah. Oh yeah. A super good friend of mine that we went to residency together, he was a solo practitioner for, gosh. At least 10 years before he brought on an associate. Tyson E Franklin: [00:15:00] Yeah. Dana Cardinas: And in the beginning he was this, I can't take, I can't leave, but once he figured out, okay I've got someone local that can cover my call if I'm out, they can take phone calls for patients that, call in after hours or have an emergency, whatever it might be. So he had coverage for that. They didn't come in the office, but it was just a quick phone call if necessary. He, when he figured that out. He would take vacation about once every eight weeks. It might be a short little, like four day or thing. Yeah. But he was gone somewhere and his practice grew immensely. Just simply because he was getting that mental break because it, let's just get real, it's not easy, Tyson E Franklin: no. To Dana Cardinas: do what we do. It's Tyson E Franklin: not. And it's one of those things too. Every patient that comes through the door could be a potential lawsuit. [00:16:00] And that's something that's, and that's why we have insurance and that Right. But we choose this profession and Right. And you know that 99.999% of patients come in. That is never going to happen. Dana Cardinas: No, it's never gonna happen. Right. And majority Tyson E Franklin: of patients are nice. Dana Cardinas: Right. Majority or. There's always a potential that patient's gonna walk in your front door that you don't know is going to absolutely kill your day. Just kill it. It's over done. There goes the schedule. Forget it. You're not getting home till way late because that one person entered your office, but it's what we signed up for. Yeah, and honestly i'm not gonna lie, I don't think I'm not different than anybody else. I think we thrive on that a little bit. I think we do love that little bit of excitement it's like you get excited about walking in that door to the patient room of, okay, what kind of shit am I gonna see on this one? Yeah. Like, what crazy crap did this guy just do that I'm [00:17:00] gonna have to fix? And that was always my favorite. Tyson E Franklin: That's the thing I think in life in general you, everybody wants a certain amount of certainty, which you need. It makes you feel comfortable and secure, but you also need that little bit of uncertainty to keep life interesting. And I, yeah, and I feel when I hear someone's, oh, I'm bored with Podiatry, I wanna leave. It's the same thing, day in, day out, I'm going, we need to, you need to change things up. Yes. Tyson E Franklin: It's obviously what, however you are running your day, you've got too much certainty. You need a little bit of uncertainty to spice things up a little bit. And that doesn't mean just going walking into work and sack somebody and create chaos. It's just your approach to work. Dana Cardinas: Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: Hey, make it a little bit different. Dana Cardinas: I totally agree. And that might be why you're bored. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. Oh yeah. I like, if I wanted to, I could pick a certain part of Podiatry, keep doing that, and I would be bored, senseless. I needed different types of patients coming through with different types of injuries to make it interesting. Yes. But some days I did wanna just switch my brain off. Yeah, [00:18:00] I did wanna to use it. Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: So, okay, I'm gonna pivot slightly because you love Podiatry so much. Everyone must be listening to this. You hear your energy, your enthusiasm, you loved it, and why'd you leave? Dana Cardinas: So, in December about mid-December of 20 2015, and I thought I had carpal tunnel. I, my hands were just killing me at night. In, in, in here, in the us. The end of the year is always slamming busy because everybody's met their deductibles. They want everything done before the end of the year. Okay? And so we are all just maxed out. We've had surgery schedules full for three months or more. Patients are just like, I gotta get in, I gotta, again, I got it in. So we're busy and we make it happen. That's what we do. We make it happen. So I would go to bed at night and , wear these wraps on my [00:19:00] wrist because it just felt better. I kept thinking, all right, I gotta go get this checked out. My hands just really hurt. But the next day I was like, it's okay. It's not hurting as much. But by the end of a long surgery day, they were just, it was pain and it was pain, especially on my right that was going up to my elbow. And I was like, all right I just gotta go get this checked out. So get through December, I'm in the first week. January and I, it was fairly quiet, which was unusual, and I had one case booked on a Friday afternoon, and it was a tiny fifth toe arthroplasty. Literally anybody that does these on a regular basis, skin to skin, you're looking at max. Six minutes to me. Yeah. That was me, max. Boom. It's not hard. And it took me 20 minutes and I couldn't feel [00:20:00] what I was doing and I was terrified. And I, it had, I had another case, I would have canceled it. And I left, I got in the car and I called the office. Canceled all of my cases that were coming up. Put 'em onto one of the other partners and called my friend, who's a neurologist and said, I'm coming over something's wrong. And she was awesome. I had actually done surgery on her two, two years prior because she had some really cool ganglion cyst on her foot, which was amazing. But another story. And so she's yeah, come on over. She did a, what is that nerve conduction study? Yeah. On me. And she's Dana, how long have you had this? And I was like, this week, like today, like I today. And she's like, how did this not, how did you not see this happening? Because as she showed me at the time, and I'll show you my hands in the camera, all I had [00:21:00] lost the muscle mass on both of my hands. Along my thumb, especially along my ulnar side on my right, a little bit more or a little bit on my left. And the nerve conduction study showed that I had severe ulnar neuropathy on both sides. She's like, that doesn't just happen overnight. I'm like, I'm telling you. I had pain, but I could feel until today. And so, we did some further studies and over the next, the course of next two to three weeks and then really realized that what I had was not gonna be reversible. I had severe loss of my muscles in my hands, but also nerve damage. I didn't have an option, but I had to retire. If you Tyson E Franklin: had picked it up earlier, could you have prevented this from happening or was it inevitable that it was going to happen? Dana Cardinas: Well, it was inevitable [00:22:00] because I didn't know what I had at the time. Yeah. Which as we'll continue the conversation you'll hear. At she diagnosed me with idiopathic ulnar neuropathy. Because we went through all the tests, all the blood work tests, the MRIs of my neck, you name it, trying to find a reason for this to have happened suddenly , which we never came up with a reason. I ended up getting an ulnar release on my right side that helped the pain. And, but I was officially retired March 31st. Of 2016. So within 90 days I found out I had basically permanent neuropathy in my hands. That was with a sudden onset and I was retired, but out. Tyson E Franklin: How old were you then? Dana Cardinas: I was, at the time I was 46. Tyson E Franklin: Unexpected. Yeah. Dana Cardinas: Very unexpected. That was not on the [00:23:00] bingo card for that year, Tyson at all. Tyson E Franklin: It's, yeah, it's like those yeah, one of those things like death pill, you people bet on who's gonna pass away that year. You never would've thought in 2015 and we had caught up in October, 2015. Yeah, within six months you'd be retired. That'd be it. And I still remember the photo of us in 2015 where I had my cactus shirt on. Remember before, before we went out into the desert and you thought it was hilarious. Dana Cardinas: I just, that photo just popped up on my phone as a memory the other day. Yes. Tyson E Franklin: It is a great photo. Dana Cardinas: It's the best. Yeah. And Tyson E Franklin: I always tell people that too, that it's one of those things, just life in general, you don't know. What's going to happen. And it's, and you can't sit there in fear thinking, oh, is this going to happen? But every now and then you will be thrown a, a curve ball and it's how you bounce back. Dana Cardinas: Right. It's true. I I was not expecting the curve balls that would happen [00:24:00] after that. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah, for sure. I know there were more curve balls. Dana Cardinas: And they kept coming for a while. But, so here I am, I'm done. I had no idea what I was gonna do next. So tried a few things here and there, but it just didn't, that, it just didn't, wasn't supposed to pan out, to be honest. It just wasn't supposed to because. In January of 2018 I was having some pain in my abdomen, my lower abdomen like right lower quadrant pain, and I kept putting it off to, oh, it's probably gas. It's probably this, it's what we all do as physicians. Ah, I'm fine. It's whatever. Yeah. We think we know. And so, my wife Becky said, will you just go get it checked out? You are really complaining about it, you should actually get it checked out. So I go see the GI doc, explain what I've got going [00:25:00] on, and he was like, you know what? It sounds like it's nothing because I did have a history of like acid reflux and some GI stuff. And he is like, it's probably nothing but let's just do an upper or lower endoscopy and let's just see. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. And were you the, and were you the windy one in the relationship? Dana Cardinas: Yes, most definitely. Tyson E Franklin: And that's why always when you had that pain, first thing you think, oh, it's just gas again, right? Yeah. Dana Cardinas: Just gas, whatever. Yeah. And so, I won't ever forget January 8th, 2018, I have my scopes and as I'm laying in recovery, waking up, I hear the GI Doc tell Becky. The upper is fine. She has colon cancer though. She has a large tumor in her colon. And I was like, and I just remember laying there thinking what the, [00:26:00] I have cancer. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. Be thinking of the same thing. Dana Cardinas: I have cancer, like the real cancer. And so, Tyson E Franklin: the real one. Dana Cardinas: Yeah, like the real one. So I ended up he couldn't complete the colonoscopy because the tumor was too big for him to pass it. So, that, that day was a blur. And then the next day I called my friend, who was a colorectal surgeon that I sat on a board with at one of the hospitals. And said, cliff guess what? I need you. And he basically said, I'll see you in the morning. And then right after that phone call, I called my good friend who is an oncologist who I used to call. When I got those reports back, you know when you do biopsies in the office and it comes back melanoma and you're like, oh shit, melanoma on a [00:27:00] toe. I don't need to be seeing this. Yeah. This is not my, she was the one that I would call to say, Heidi, who's the best oncologist? Oncological surgeon that needs this. She was my sounding board when I got those strange things back, and so I called her and said, Heidi. Guess what? I need you. And she said, okay, I'll see you when Cliff is done with you. And they literally became my team overnight. And they talked to each other before I even got to the, his office the next morning. They had a plan in place for me. And so I had CT scans. The next day saw him. I've come to find out I had a very large tumor that was over 10 inches long, and it was almost 99% occluding in my colon. So likely had I gone another couple of weeks, a month I probably would [00:28:00] not be here. Yeah. Because Dana Cardinas: it, it would've just ended me. So, then. Fast forward after that, he did surgery. I lost 27 inches of my ascending and transverse colon, but he was able to reconnect re anastomosis both ends so that I did not end up with a bag, which I wasn't excited about, if I was gonna have to have one. But if it kept me alive, okay, fine. Me, I would've made a ton of jokes out of it, and it would've been like, Tyson E Franklin: Oh, you've carried around like a handbag. Dana Cardinas: Oh God, yes. It would've happened. Yeah. But for me it did not have to happen. So, once I healed from that, six weeks later started chemo, went through eight months of chemo that was probably the worst thing I've ever been through. Because now let's flash back a little bit. Yeah. On the neuropathy part. [00:29:00] Okay. We didn't know at the time in 2016 why I had neuropathy. But after I retired and before I found out I was diagnosed with cancer, I kept breaking out on these full body hives. And I don't mean like itty bitty tiny hives, hives, massive four six inches hives all over my body. I was going through the treatment of trying to figure out what environmental food, what allergy did I have that was causing this. But in talking with my oncologist, she put all of my picture together. And what I had was perine neoplastic syndrome, which is rare. But it's the cancer that I had growing in me that I didn't know I had. Was causing the hives that gave me the wonderful neuropathy and a few other things. And so that's so that Tyson E Franklin: there are all signs of something else was actually happening anyway. Dana Cardinas: Yes. I just didn't, I just didn't know that's, and per neoplastic syndrome is something that is diagnosed. After the [00:30:00] fact. It is rarely something that some physician would put together and say, oh, you have cancer because you have all these things happening. Yeah. It just doesn't work that way. Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: Real cancer. Dana Cardinas: Real cancer. Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: A another friend of mine exactly the same diagnosis around exactly the same time and that's why I, I. Way back. I wanted to get you on here way, way back. And I said the same thing to him. I wanted to get him on the podcast as well. And he's not with us anymore. Right? Tyson E Franklin: He didn't, he he got the bag and last time I saw him was actually on my birthday. I had to make him breakfast on my birthday. At his house? Yeah, at his house. 'cause he said, I want your favorite breakfast that you make. And I saw him then. He said, oh, they've told me I've got heaps of time. I'm gonna beat this. Everything's gonna be absolutely fantastic. And five weeks later he passed away. Dana Cardinas: Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: [00:31:00] And so, yeah, that, and that's why, Dana Cardinas: and I'm, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to hear that. Tyson, I, that breaks my heart, Tyson E Franklin: but Oh geez. That's why I think it's important to talk about this. Dana Cardinas: It's hugely important because I'm lucky. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. Dana Cardinas: I know I'm lucky. I, when I was diagnosed stage three C. So I only had one more stage to go before I was stage four, and I was lucky that it had not spread to any other organs. But that was that I'm lucky in two regards in educating myself on colon cancer because as I was diagnosed, yeah, once you get past that first initial part of it and you get a plan. Once you get a plan, it's almost, that's when you can breathe. You can't breathe until you get a plan. But once you know [00:32:00] the, these, X, Y, and Z need to happen, and this is when we're gonna do it. That's when I started researching and and finding out more about the diagnosis and what does it mean and what does treatment mean and what am I looking at here? What, where am I gonna be here? And so, I was lucky enough that, someone else who had a family member that was going through colon cancer. She this wonderful person connected me with her and through her I got connected with a wonderful organization called Colon Town. And Colon Town is an online um, resource for patients that are going through colon cancer, but it's also for the caregivers and the, your, the spouses, the friends, anybody who is either affected by it, is a patient, any of [00:33:00] that. You can go to colontown.org to get more information about it. But I dove into it and it's right now it is on online, on Facebook. It's private. So you, everything we discuss in there, you, nobody else is gonna see it. It's just us. They are working their way off to a separate platform. That's even better, to be honest. But so I dove into it. And it made me feel better because I could talk to other people that were just like me, that were going through exactly what I was going through. But what the crazy part Tyson is while I'm going through chemo and my dang numbness is getting worse because the chemo that we have to go on that keeps us alive. Its number one side effect is peripheral neuropathy. Okay. And cold sensitivity. Oh God, it sucked. Oh, so my neuropathy went off the charts. Like, Tyson E Franklin: I shouldn't, I shouldn't be giggling when you say that. I, but you Dana Cardinas: [00:34:00] can because you, I mean you, oh God. The stories. But I would have my, had I ended up with full facial numbness, my tongue was numb most of the time. My, my chest was numb. Just there wasn't much of me that wasn't numb except my butt. Go figure. So there were so many questions that would come up in this group about how to deal with neuropathy that I noticed I was answering them because it was what we treated. And I knew the answer and I knew what could help. 'cause I was helping myself. That I reached out, eventually reached out to the creators of Colontown because in Colontown there's these little neighborhoods. So if you're stage four, you're in a certain neighborhood, so you can just have those specific conversations. Or if you are a certain genotype, then you have those conversations in that trials group maybe. And so I said, Hey, can I start a group for neuropathy? And they were like, yes, please, because we all have it. [00:35:00] And so I started a group inside Colon Town that is only for neuropathy and I it. Warms my heart because we have, within that group now created some treatment processes for those that are now going through chemo with the certain drug that we have to take where we now ice our hands and our feet so that it's reducing the neuropathy that people are getting now. And we started that as a patient led. Research project basically, and it is now becoming standard of care and it's the most fucking awesome thing I think I've ever done in my life. Tyson E Franklin: I think that is absolutely fantastic and what I like about it is you've used your knowledge in your experience as a Podiatry to actually help this group of people. Dana Cardinas: Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: I didn't see [00:36:00] that Dana Cardinas: coming. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. Right. Dana Cardinas: Unexpectedly. I didn't see it coming. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. I always say everything's supposed to happen for a reason. Exactly. And sometimes I do question a lot of things that happen and I like to think there's a reason behind it. Yeah. My dad passed away when he was 49. I was only 17. I kept thinking, where's the reason? And that, yeah, Tyson E Franklin: there's certain things I changed in my life around that time afterwards that I wouldn't, probably wouldn't be doing what I'm doing now or had the career I had if. I hadn't got that kick back then. Yeah. I would've had a different path that I was on. So I think it's the same with you. You've had a few crazy things happen and now you're on this completely different path. So when did you get the the tick, the all clear Dana Cardinas: so I got the all clear? October of 2018. That we call it no evidence of disease. Yeah. Because I'm a stage three CI never get cured. I, I will forever, my whole life be monitored. [00:37:00] But I've been clear ever since. I just saw the, my oncologist, in fact, I retired, my friend she left me to go travel the world and so I'm working, I'm breaking in a new one, and I like her a Tyson E Franklin: lot. So how often needs to get checked? Dana Cardinas: So now I just graduated, so once a year. Woo. It's awesome. Tyson E Franklin: That is good news. Dana Cardinas: I know it is. Tyson E Franklin: So now, now you've got through all that and retired from Podiatry, your Helping ColonTown I, oh, by the way, I love that t-shirt. Was that your design? That t-shirt? Dana Cardinas: The. Tyson E Franklin: The one I read out before that says colorectal cancer awareness, because that shit matters. That shit matters. Yes. Tyson E Franklin: That's a great t-shirt. And then you've got, on the t-shirt, you've got all the names of what people who have had colon cancer, what they would call their poo. Dana Cardinas: Yeah, their poo. And Tyson E Franklin: I like dookie. I haven't heard dookie for a while. [00:38:00] Dana Cardinas: Oh my gosh. The stink pickle. That's my favorite one. Tyson E Franklin: That's my favorite one. I like the Corn Eyed butt snake that this is all by the way. People just let you know this is all on a t-shirt, which I think is very funny. Um, Code brown goat pellets nuggets. Dana Cardinas: I did, I asked all of my friends, okay, what do you call it? And I had my good friend Lauren, who is a graphic artist I said, okay, Lauren, here's all the name here. Here's what we call it. And I used the poop emoji and put it all in there. And he did a phenomenal job. Tyson E Franklin: In the show notes, I'm gonna put a copy of this shirt, the front and back because it is a hilarious shirt. And I think you give everyone a bit of a laugh too. I like the head of, they have put here turd. It's basic. It's basic. It's very basic. And somebody else did put shit. Dana Cardinas: Yes. Tyson E Franklin: Basics. I dunno what a shoey is. That's a little bit weird. In Australia shoe's called a [00:39:00] Completely a shoey is drinking a beer out of a, out of a jogger. That's called a shoey. Oh Dana Cardinas: No. A shoe chewy that, yeah, that's a stinky one. Yeah. Whoof, that's That's a big one. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. Ah, that's like shoe fly pie. Dana Cardinas: No, Tyson E Franklin: No, that's completely different. That's actually quite nice. Dana Cardinas: Good. That's awesome. Have you had Tyson E Franklin: that? Have you had shoe fly pie? I Dana Cardinas: did when I was in Philly. Yes. Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: Yes. That's pretty good in the I got it. Good. I got it from this town called Intercourse. Dana Cardinas: I, that's where I had it too. That's right next to Birden hand. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. Where the arm where the Amish. The Amish had the shop there. Yes. And they were selling shoe fly pie where I Dana Cardinas: had it. Yeah. That's awesome. Tyson E Franklin: And people don't think this podcast is education. Dana Cardinas: There's so much education here. Tyson E Franklin: Some people think this show's not educational. Dana Cardinas: Tyson, I could go on and on about poop. Tyson E Franklin: So now you have your own business. You've set up something else called One Stop [00:40:00] Promotional Products. And if people are looking for it, it's one. The number one. One stop promotional products.com. Dana Cardinas: Yes. Tyson E Franklin: People can go check it all out. Actually, Dana Cardinas: either way, you can put one, the number one or spill out one both ways. We'll get you there. Tyson E Franklin: Oh, cool. Okay. I wasn't quite sure. So OneStop promotional products.com. So this is your business that you're doing now. All promotional products? Yeah. You are servicing mostly America. Do you ship it overseas or anything like that? Dana Cardinas: No. Right now we're not doing anything overseas 'cause it's a little too crazy for that right now. Yeah. But we do we are. Mostly 95% B2B. And we love it. We love it. We have two airlines and 175 active companies that we work with monthly. Oh, cool. And adding more, we add more weekly. It's a lot of fun. Tyson E Franklin: Who? Yeah. Well, I'm gonna order something and pick it up when I come over. In December. Dana Cardinas: Oh my God. Oh my God. And I'm gonna put [00:41:00] a big stink pickle on it. I'm gonna say you that right now, Tyson E Franklin: but the get ready. So how did you get into this? What was the OO Obviously like you retired young. Dana Cardinas: Yeah. Tyson E Franklin: And you, did you end up selling the practice? Dana Cardinas: I sold my shares in the practice. So the other docs were still there practicing. Yeah. And so they were not ready to retire yet, obviously. No, they were still doing it. They were, they, we were all pretty much the same age, so they were still doing their thing. So I, I sold my shares and got out. Tyson E Franklin: Okay. And then being young, as you still are. In my eyes Dana Cardinas: absolutely Tyson E Franklin: is this, how, why you, we gotta do something else. And that's how this came about. Dana Cardinas: It was totally by accident, a hundred percent accident. I go going through the cancer thing. I didn't do anything that year. Obviously. Yeah. Dana Cardinas: But in 2019 my wife and I were. Talking about, well, you know, let's, let's do something for fun. I'm getting bored. I need to do something with my hands. I like building things. [00:42:00] And somebody said, Hey, what, why don't you get one of those cricket machines and make signs? And a cricket machine is like a machine that you can send a design to. And it'll cut it out for you and then you can, put the vinyl or whatever Yeah. On side. Okay. That sounds fun. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And so, I was just doing it for fun and our local Mexican food restaurant that we go to entirely too much. But I refuse to stop going. They were like family and they said, Hey, you're doing some fun stuff. Do, can you make t-shirts? Because their staff, their shirts were horrible. They were truly horrible. And I, that night, we said, you know what? We don't know how, but we'll figure it out. Yeah. Dana Cardinas: 'Cause they needed shirts, so we went home. We bought a cheap Amazon press. I watched about 10 YouTube videos and was like, screw it. Let's make some shirts. And so we literally did their, that year it was their Cinco de Mayo shirts and they all it said was [00:43:00] Margarita's Mexican restaurant on it. That's it, that's all it said. But we made them and they could not have been happier with them. And. Customer said, Hey, where'd you get your new shirt? And they said, Dana. And Becky. And then next thing you know, they, we got more business and more business. And it got to where we said we might need to figure out how to do this with more professional equipment. Yeah. And Dana Cardinas: so we upgraded to more professional equipment, as you can see behind me. Tyson E Franklin: Yep. You can see it all there. Dana Cardinas: And now we run two heat presses, two professional heat presses on a regular base daily and just added this fabulous two head embroidery machine behind me. So we didn't have to outsource that anymore. And so, we do apparel, no minimums in house, which is awesome. But then if you need things like pens or name badges or you name it, literally anything you can think of, [00:44:00] lip balm. Lip balm. Yes. Lip balm. Lip balm. Dana Cardinas: We work with wholesalers for that and so we can, we have access to over 2 million products, which is fun. Tyson E Franklin: I know when I was on the website having a look around there was, it was so much fun looking at everything. And I was think as a Podiatry business, and I've got some Podiatry. One particular Podiatry friend called Carly who just loves swag. But Tyson E Franklin: anything that's branded and got names on it. Right. Just, Tyson E Franklin: and I must admit, I've got so many t-shirts, I've got like 200 t-shirts that I won't part with half my t-shirts. I've picked up at events, podcasting conferences and I just love, I'm the same thing. I just love that sort of stuff. Dana Cardinas: Right. Well, and the so again. Something I didn't see heading my way was all the things that I learned at top practices in day freeze and reading Jim Palmer, all those things. That is [00:45:00] now what we do. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. Dana Cardinas: So we are that, that aspect of your business that keeps people top of mind. And that's the fun part because I have a little different spin on how we present products. I'm not gonna present you just a cheap cozy which a lot of companies will do because it's a cheap, cozy. Yeah. I'm gonna, if you are an electrician, I'm gonna present you something that is for your field that a customer is gonna want for the rest of their life they're never gonna get rid of. They're gonna keep it, and they're gonna call you over and over again. And that's why we keep getting business. Tyson E Franklin: Yeah that's a really good point. I've been to places where they'll have promotional products and it is cheap. I mean, You'll, you're trying, it's cheap. You're write with the pen and you've got RSI before you've written about the fourth word. 'cause it's just, there's so much resistance against the paper. Yeah. Or you'll bring something home [00:46:00] and your first time you use it, it just breaks. And to me, that makes a business look bad when they hand out crap swag. Exactly. Whereas if they hand a quality swag that you use again and again, then all of a sudden it, it actually puts that business in a positive light in your mind. Dana Cardinas: Right. And it keeps them top of mind. Yeah. Like, it truly does. Give them that up. Advantage over maybe somebody else. We and a lot of times I talk to customers, potential clients that say, okay, I want five different things. And I'm like, well, what's your budget? And they made me say, 500 bucks, $500. I'm like, all right, let's get one really good quality. Swag item. Yeah. For $500, let's not get a hundred of all these other little things, because all those other little things are gonna go in the trash. But this one really cool thing is gonna sit on somebody's desk and they're gonna look at it every day.[00:47:00] Tyson E Franklin: Yeah. I, well, I got stubby holders done stubby coolers. Your coozies as you call 'em over there 15 years ago before I sold the clinic. And I've still got a number of 'em here at home that I still use, and I've gone to people's places and I've seen them sitting with their stubby holders. Right. With a stubby in it. 15 years, after having them made. And they are still looking solid. They're still, yeah. Right. Dana Cardinas: Yeah. That's Tyson E Franklin: quality. Dana Cardinas: That's what we're all about. And that's one of our taglines is quality products only. That's the focus. Tyson E Franklin: I don't Dana Cardinas: want just walking around with a bunch of cheap shit. Let's go with some something good quality. Tyson E Franklin: Well think everyone listening to this, they that. To me that just applies to everything in life. Even your Podiatry business is provide a quality service. If you are gonna buy machinery, get the best that you can. Just get the best. Exactly. 'cause it will last longer. Give the patients the best. Whether it's covering [00:48:00] material or what you're getting the orthotics made of, just do, I think just always do the best you can. Dana Cardinas: Right, right. And if it costs a little bit more, explain to the patient or the customer who, whoever you're talking to. Tell them, okay, it's, it costs more because there's more going into this one. I've there's more time. The product's better. The craftsmanship is better. There's education behind it. It's not just, oh, I went online and ordered a pin from I don't know where, and I don't know who makes it and whatever. Spend the time and talk to your patients, especially because if there's something that you should be offering, but you're not because you don't think they'll buy it, they're buying it on Amazon, so why can't they buy it from you? But it's a better product if you're getting it from a reputable vendor or you know that, okay, this product is a better product than what they're getting on Amazon. Why can't they spend money with you versus Amazon? [00:49:00] Tyson E Franklin: It's true, and even the pen that I use most. This one is from a Podiatry clinic friend of mine, sole focus in Toowoomba. Nice. Dana Cardinas: Ooh. It is a, it is my God. SAT is my top seller. This is a Tyson E Franklin: beautiful pen to write with. And whenever I run out she usually sends me a few more. Dana Cardinas: I'll get you some. Tyson E Franklin: Just, they just really good pens. It just the feel of it. And because, and she got the whole pen done, like in her corporate colors, what her clinic is all about as well. And yeah. And she said the same thing. Wanted a quality pen, wanted something. When people write with it, they go, I want another one of these pens when they run out. And that's exactly what I do. But I do see it so she doesn't have to send it to me. I'll just pick some up next time I'm down there. So on. On that note, I want to thank you for coming on the podcast, sharing what got you into Podiatry, what got you out of Podiatry, which I think is just as important and what you're doing there. And like I said at the start, I just, I've [00:50:00] always loved your energy. Love chatting with you. You're so much fun to be around. Dana Cardinas: Thank you, Tyson. I, well, same is right back at you. I think as soon as we met. There was no doubt we were going to be destined to be lifelong friends because we laughed too much together. For sure. So, and before we get off, I will just say this if you are 45 or older and you haven't had a colonoscopy, please get one. They're not scary. All you do is poop the night, the day before and everybody poops. So it's, that's not scary. But get it done. And if you are not 45, but you're having symptoms force your doc to get you in to get it done you really just need to get it checked out. So, it'll save your life. Tyson E Franklin: That is fantastic. So I look forward to talking to you again soon. Oh, and I'll see you in December anyway. Dana Cardinas: Yes. Can't wait. Tyson E Franklin: Okay. Talk to you later. Bye. Dana Cardinas: Bye.

Tune in and hear Steve speak directly to one of the main reasons why so many people fail to be successful: they make excuses instead of taking accountability. When you stop making excuses and start taking ownership for your actions, you will be way down the road towards success.In this episode of Right Thinking, I explore the barriers self-imposed excuses create on the path to success and the importance of personal accountability. Inspired by a conversation with my wife, I reflect on Matthew 7:3-5, emphasizing the hypocrisy in focusing on others' shortcomings while neglecting our own.I discuss insights from my book, "From the Lip to the Hip is a Pretty Far Distance," and highlight Napoleon Hill's concept of alibis, detailing 57 common excuses that hinder true potential. I urge listeners to confront their mental barriers and redefine their mindsets to embrace personal responsibility and proactive behavior. The episode concludes with actionable strategies for overcoming excuses and fostering a culture of self-improvement and accountability.https://www.talknetworkradio.com/hosts/right-thinking

To enter God's kingdom, one must do His will. Lip service won't suffice. God won't tolerate those who don't produce fruit in the kingdom. It's not about good works; it's about your heart for God and people. God's invitation to His table is gracious and costly, but the benefits are beyond compare.

On this week's show we take a first look at the proposed HDMI 2.2 specification. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: YouTube Once Again Dominates TV Usage In May SunBrite Debuts Full Sun 4K Smart TV Series XGIMI Releases MoGo 4 Series Projectors Amazon to Shutter Freevee in September 2025, Merging Content into Prime Video HDMI 2.2 Specification The HDMI 2.2 specification, announced by the HDMI Forum at CES 2025, introduces several advanced features to support higher resolutions, refresh rates, and enhanced audio-visual performance. Below is a summary of the key features included in the HDMI 2.2 specification based on the information we have today: Increased Bandwidth (Up to 96 Gbps): HDMI 2.2 doubles the bandwidth of HDMI 2.1 (from 48 Gbps to 96 Gbps), enabling support for higher resolution and refresh rate combinations, as well as data-intensive applications.  This increased bandwidth supports uncompressed and compressed video formats, making it suitable for advanced applications like AR/VR, spatial reality, light field displays, medical imaging, and machine vision. Support for Higher Resolutions and Refresh Rates: Uncompressed Formats 4K at 240 Hz and 480 Hz (4:4:4 chroma sampling, 10-bit and 12-bit color). 8K at 60 Hz and 240 Hz (4:4:4 chroma sampling, 8-bit and 10-bit color). 10K at 120 Hz. 12K at 120 Hz. 16K at 60 Hz. Compressed Formats (using Display Stream Compression or similar): Supports higher refresh rates like 4K at 480 Hz, 8K at 240 Hz, and 10K at 120 Hz, which require compression to achieve these rates within the bandwidth constraints. Next-Generation Fixed Rate Link (FRL) Technology: HDMI 2.2 introduces an advanced version of Fixed Rate Link signaling technology, optimized for better support of uncompressed content at high resolutions and refresh rates, ensuring pristine image quality and low latency Ultra96 HDMI Cable: A new cable type, the Ultra96 HDMI Cable, is introduced to support the full 96 Gbps bandwidth and all HDMI 2.2 features. These cables are backward compatible with older HDMI devices but are required to fully utilize HDMI 2.2's capabilities. The Ultra96 cables are part of the HDMI Cable Certification Program, requiring testing and certification with a visible Ultra96 certification label to ensure compliance. Features low electromagnetic interference (EMI) for stable and reliable data transmission. Latency Indication Protocol (LIP): A new feature designed to improve audio and video “‘video synchronization, particularly in multi-hop setups involving devices like AV receivers or soundbars. LIP enhances synchronization over existing methods, reducing issues like lip-sync lag, especially for fast-paced content or gaming. Support for Advanced Color and Chroma Formats: Supports high-quality color spaces like BT.2020 with 10-bit, 12-bit, and 16-bit color depth. Enables uncompressed full chroma formats (e.g., 4:4:4) at high resolutions, ensuring richer colors and pristine image quality. Additional Notes Availability: The HDMI 2.2 specification was announced at CES 2025, with Ultra96 cables expected to be available in Q3/Q4 2025. HDMI 2.2-compliant devices (e.g., TVs, monitors, GPUs) are expected to appear in late 2025 or 2026 Optional Features: Like previous HDMI versions, features such as Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), Quick Frame Transport (QFT), and Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC) remain optional and depend on device manufacturer implementation. Consumer Guidance: The Ultra96 feature name helps consumers identify cables and devices capable of supporting 64 Gbps, 80 Gbps, or 96 Gbps bandwidth, ensuring optimal performance.

What would you do if your world slowly started going silent—and you didn't know why? This week on Pushing Limits, we bring you the story of Claire, a young student in Utah who began losing her hearing in fifth grade, despite having no family history of disability. When Claire was in fifth grade, she noticed the hearing in her right ear dropped, followed by her left ear. Now entering ninth grade, Claire reflects on her journey of obtaining hearing aids, a cochlear implant, and how she and her mother, Michelle, are learning to navigate a new language, a new identity, and a new understanding of access. Tune in as we ask what her audiologist and ENT did to help her, what made her decide to get a cochlear implant in her right ear, and how she learned to adapt to the cochlear implant. How do mother and daughter feel about learning American Sign Language? This week, Denny Daughters talks to Claire and her mother Michelle to answer all these questions and more. Plus, for a full transcript of the entire program, scroll down. The idea for this episode of Pushing Limits came from Denny's wife, Deah Daughters. This show was hosted, edited, and produced by Denny Daughters. Audio transcription was by Nicole Struthers.   Pushing Limits – Sudden Changes [Opening intro music]   Denny:  Hello, and welcome to Pushing Limits, KPFA's program by and about people with disabilities. We air every Friday afternoon at 2:30 p.m.  I'm your host, Denny Daughters. Today, I have two guests, Claire and her mother, Michelle. Both live in Utah. Claire will be going into ninth grade this fall. This is her final year of junior high. Claire's mom, dad, and three siblings don't have any disabilities.   In fifth grade, Claire was a typical kid without any disabilities. That year, she lost her hearing. She went from having hearing aids in both ears to having a hearing aid in her left ear and a cochlear implant in her right ear. Welcome to Pushing Limits. Let's start out with a brief introduction from both of you.   Claire:  I'm Claire, and I lost my hearing in fifth grade, so it's been almost four years.   Michelle:  My name's Michelle, and I'm Claire's mom.   Denny:  How many people are in your family?   Claire:  I have two brothers, one sister. I'm the youngest.   Denny:  Do any of your family members have disabilities?   Claire:  No.   Denny:  Do you remember what you were doing when you lost your hearing, and what was it like for you after you lost your hearing?   Claire:  I remember very well. I was just playing Legos, and then it just dropped, and it started ringing, and it never stopped. So, I'd be like, “Mama, it's still in my ear,” and I could still hear out my other ear. It's kind of like a bunch of buzzing or like the ringing in your ears, but also sometimes it'll sound like there's a fly in your ear or something. We would put stuff in my ears trying to get a fly out, because I thought there was a fly in my ear.   Michelle:  She wouldn't believe me that there was no fly in her ear and would ask me to check over and over –   Claire:  Every day.   Michelle:  — because she just felt like there was —   Claire:  It sounded like it.   Michelle:  — a fly, but it was ringing so loud that I was having to yell really loud for her just to be able to hear me.   Claire:  Yeah.   Denny:  When the buzzing in Claire's ears wouldn't go away, it took about a week for them to get in to see her pediatrician, and then it was two weeks after that for them to see the ENT.  Here's Michelle.   Michelle:  It started to ring, and we talked to her pediatrician –   Claire:  Oh, yeah.   Michelle:  — right away.   Claire:  I don't remember that.   Michelle:  And he thought that maybe she had some fluid in her ears, and so we went and got that checked out, and it looked okay, but they put her on a medication in case there was some fluid that they couldn't detect, and then he had us wait.  At that point, when it didn't come back, then he had us go see an ENT.   We got her in pretty quickly. The thing that was tricky is that I started calling around to different ENTs, and no one could get her in.  They were all booked out pretty far, even just a month or two, but I was trying to explain, “She can't hear. I feel like this is kind of an urgent thing.” So, I finally found a place that could get her in, you know, it was a week or two after I called. They weren't pediatric, but it was fine.   They did an audiology test, and then she met with the ENT. They at that point just said – and this was our first doctor appointment – but they said, “Oh, she's going to need hearing aids,” and it just caught me so off guard, because everything up to that point you'd fixed. Right? She gets strep throat, you get medication, you fixed it. For them to just flat-out say, “Oh, she lost her hearing,” it was just shocking to me.  I don't think Claire even knows this, but I cried the whole way home, and she couldn't hear me in the back seat because she couldn't hear, and I was just devastated.   Claire:  Oh, yeah.   Michelle:  So, I came home and started researching more, and I saw that sometimes with sudden hearing loss, steroids would help.  I called my pediatrician that night. He's a friend of ours, and so I called him at 9:00 at night and said, “Would you prescribe some steroids for her to try?” He said, “You need to get in to this one specific ENT as soon as you can,” and I said, “I actually have an appointment with him, but it's not for another month and a half,” and he said, “I will get you in tomorrow.”   The next morning, I got a call from their office, and they got Claire in that day, and they did another audiology test with her, and then they gave her a round of steroids, which did bring her hearing back a little bit.   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  But we had to go through all of the motions to see if there was anything that we could do to help with that, and it didn't, and so at that point, they decided the hearing aids would be the best option.   The first time we went in to this office that we're with now, the pediatric audiologist that we're with was on a humanitarian trip, and so they just had her seeing whoever was available at the time for her appointments.  But once we got in with this specific audiologist, she has just been –   Claire:  She was perfect.   Michelle:  — so incredibly amazing.   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  I would say that's something that's been amazing with Claire's journey is just how amazing the people have been.  Her audiologist, we've gotten to become really close with.  She's just been amazing.  I couldn't ask for anything better. Her ENT, same thing.   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  Just, they've been so good for Claire and done so much and truly cared about her, and it makes such a difference to go through this with that kind of healthcare provider.   Denny:  What were some of the emotions you were going through while all this was going on?   Claire:  I was just confused, because I didn't really know. When I was younger, I thought it was just like silence, so I didn't understand why I just had a ringing in my ear and why I couldn't hear, so I was really just confused. I wasn't really too nervous or anything.   Denny:  How did you feel when you found out first you were going to have hearing aids?   Claire:  I was kind of excited, because I've always wanted to experience stuff like that, and also because I could hear and stuff.   Denny:  Which ear did you lose your hearing in first?   Claire:  It started in the right ear, and then it came to the left, and then they were pretty good. Then my right ear kind of dropped, so then they did a bunch of stuff. They were testing things again, putting me on steroids, trying to see if we could get my right ear up, and then we talked about maybe getting a cochlear implant.   Denny:  Claire, have you ever been around somebody who's deaf before?   Claire:  Yeah.  I've met kids at school.   Michelle:  There was one kid that had hearing aids, but he wasn't really –   Claire:  No, he had two hearing aids, and then this kid with two cochlears and a girl with a hearing aid.   Michelle:  Okay.  But at that time, you didn't really know them.   Claire:  Yeah, and I still don't know them.  Like, I know them, and I knew their names, but it's not like we were friends, and I never really talked to them.   Denny:  Some people in the deaf community feel that it's better to learn American Sign Language, ASL, in order to preserve the deaf culture rather than getting cochlear implants. What are your thoughts on that, Claire?   Claire:  I don't have that many feelings, but I also feel like I tried learning ASL, but I didn't really like doing it, and I felt like it was really hard for me to learn.  Having things like cochlears for kids who might not be able to do it or like – yeah, just not being able to do it or anything.   Denny:  So, for you, learning ASL was difficult?   Claire:  Yeah.  I only tried it for a little bit of time, and then I kind of just stopped.  I know some words and the alphabet, but it's not like I know all of the signs.   Michelle:  Can I share my thoughts on that, too?   Claire:  Yeah, you can share your thoughts.   Denny:  Absolutely.   Michelle:  So, I actually love ASL.  I have always been fascinated with it. When I was little, I took a class during the summer, and I just love it. Anytime we've been anywhere where there's an interpreter that is signing, I just focus on that, and I think it is such a beautiful language. I would still love for Claire and I and other members of our family to learn it, because there are times – for example, we're on the beach, or at night when she's going to bed and she doesn't have her devices on – that I think it would be amazing.   But as we talked about the decision to do a cochlear, we realized that Claire is in a hearing community. She lives in a hearing community. Her family is hearing. Her friends are hearing.   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  Her neighbors are hearing. And so, for Claire to be a part of that community, if there's an option where she can still be hearing, that's her community.  I think that would be different if other members of our family were deaf or other people in our community close to us. But because of that, we felt if there's an option for her to be able to still have that, that was what would make her more successful in the community that she's in.   Denny:  Besides giving you steroids, what were some of the other things they tried with your hearing aids?   Claire:  Not only did my hearing aid test, but they did a lot of cochlear tests, and then they would try stuff other than steroids. They turned up my hearing aid, because they can make the sound on hearing aids lower and less volume and a stronger volume.   Denny:  Were the tests hard that they had you do?   Claire:  No. It's kind of stuff like I go in this booth, and it's like, “Repeat this sentence. Repeat these words,” just to see how well I can hear those things, but if I don't hear it, I just say nothing. A lot of them were like, “Say armchair.  Say hot dog, baseball,” really weird, just random words.   Denny:  Michelle, were you there for all the tests?   Michelle:  Yes, I was there for every one of them. She was in the sound booth, and then I was sitting by the audiologist.   Claire:  Because the audiologist has headphones and a microphone, so she can talk to me and hear me, but she couldn't, but she was at least in the office.   Michelle:  And there was a window, so we could see her.   Claire:  Yeah.   Denny:  For two years, the hearing aids helped, and then without warning, the hearing in her right ear suddenly decreased to almost nothing. When you decided to get the cochlear implant, were you presented with other options, or did you feel like this was the only option that you had?   Michelle:  I mean, first it was deciding if you wanted to get a cochlear.   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  And it was, “The hearing aid will no longer work.”   Claire:  Well, and we tried steroids again.   Michelle:  Yeah, we did. We went through two different rounds of steroids to see if that would help, but it didn't help enough, so it became we can do a cochlear or not. And then once we chose to do a cochlear, they did present us with a few different companies that do cochlears.   Denny:  Did you ever feel like they were trying to push a certain technology on you?   Michelle:  No, never.   Claire:  No. They were asking us about it, like, “Do you want to try hearing aids?”   Michelle:  They talked about all the pros and cons of both hearing aids –   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  — and the cochlear. I sincerely felt that they had Claire's best interest in mind.   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  But the decision very much felt like it was our decision –   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  — and they weren't telling us what we needed to do.   Denny:  Claire talks about the final round of tests she underwent before getting her cochlear.   Claire:  So, there was like a hearing box room for hearing aid and cochlear tests, and they would put me in there to make sure I needed it, and I was telling them afterwards, “I couldn't hear a thing.” I thought it was telling me to do actions, and apparently it was saying sentences or something. I don't even remember it.   Michelle:  Yeah, her audiologist said, “I only had to do that as a formality, but I knew that you wouldn't be able to pass that test,” –   Claire:  Yeah, I couldn't hear anything. I thought it was –   Michelle:  — because she had lost all that hearing in the right ear.   Denny:  How did you feel when you found out you couldn't hear the directions your audiologist was giving you?   Claire:  I wasn't too worried, because I knew that if that didn't work out, I would just have my hearing aid in my one ear and get my cochlear, and I would be able to hear in that ear again with the cochlear. Failing that test would mean I needed the cochlear.   Michelle:  Claire's been very resilient. When we were driving home from that, I wanted to kind of talk with her and say, “How are you feeling? What are your thoughts? Are you okay?” and Claire said, “There's a reason for everything that happens, and there's a reason for this.” I was just amazed at the maturity and the acceptance and the resilience, that she's been able to say, “There's a reason that this is happening,” and she's just gone with it, and she's done so well because of that. She's had such a great attitude.   Denny:  What's the definition of a cochlear implant? A cochlear implant has two parts to it. The processor is surgically inserted. It sits in the inner ear, and it bypasses the damaged cochlea cells. There are some really thin wires that stimulate the cochlear nerve endings. In most cases, they don't physically touch those nerve endings; they just stimulate them. The cochlear nerve endings are attached to the cochlear nerve, which is attached to the brain. The receiver sits outside the skull, collecting sounds in the natural environment. The two components are connected via a magnet.   When they gave you your pre-surgery instructions, do you remember if they said anything besides ‘Don't eat anything after 11 p.m. the night before your surgery'?   Claire:  I don't think so. It was really just like a normal surgery that you would undergo.   Denny:  Were there any scary moments with your surgery?   Claire:  The only scary part for me was if they hit this certain nerve, then I wouldn't be able to move the right side of my face. That's one of the biggest ones. They'll have little things by it so if they get too close with the thing, they'll know.   Michelle:  Yeah. So, to clarify, if they touch that nerve, it will paralyze half of your face, and so during surgery, they have sensors all over your face so that if you get even close to it, the sensor goes off so that the doctor knows that he's getting close to that nerve.   Claire:  Yeah. That was the only part that scared me about the surgery, because I've had other surgeries.   Denny:  The city of Lehi is about 28 miles south of Salt Lake City. Here's Michelle.   Michelle:  Claire was the first child to have a cochlear implant surgery at the new Primary Children's Hospital that they had just opened in Lehi.  So, they got her under anesthesia, and then the doctor realized they didn't have all of the tools that he needed to do it, and so they had to get them from the other hospital in Salt Lake. She ended up being back there double the time, and so they called to give us an update and said, “They haven't started yet.” They didn't go into details at that point, and we were so confused why she had been back in the OR for so long.   Claire:  It was same-day surgery, so I was able to leave after that and go home.  I was excited to go to my bed.   Denny:  The surgery took between five and six hours to complete rather than the usual two or three hours. What was it like for you recovering from the surgery?   Claire:  It was a very long recovery, I'd say. I'd be mainly staying in bed, and people would come visit, and my mom was like, “Come out to the couch.” I didn't really want to walk around too much, because I'd get dizzy and feel nauseous. I was tired a lot of the time, so I didn't really want to talk to people as much, but I still wanted to see them and visit with them.  I mainly just stayed in my room, and I watched shows on my headphones.   I didn't lay on that side of my head for a while, because there was stitches, and it hurt. I would wear clothes that I didn't have to put over my head, like button-ups and stuff, so I didn't have to put anything around that ear. I just laid in bed and rested and had medicine.   Michelle:  It's hard to watch your kid struggle, you know, after surgery, when she was so miserable and she kept saying, “I wish we wouldn't have done this.” That only lasted a couple days, but it hurts to see them go through that.   Claire:  Yeah.   Denny:  How long did it take to recover from your surgery?   Claire:  I want to say like maybe a week or something.   Michelle:  Yeah, maybe. I can't remember exactly.   Claire:  It was like a week or so.   Michelle:  But after a few days, her dizziness was so bad she didn't even want to lift up her head.   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  So, her ENT called in a little patch to put behind her ear, and we tried that, and that actually helped quite a bit, too.   Claire:  Yeah.   Michelle:  So, it was probably four days, five days, maybe.   Claire:  Yeah. And also, I have a small goose egg where the magnet is. It's kind of just popped up a little bit where the magnet is, just a little bump on the back of my head.   Michelle:  But the scar from the surgery, you wouldn't even know it's there, it healed up so nicely.   Claire:  Yeah. Michelle:  It's right at the crease of her ear in the back.   Denny:  It's where your ear joins your skull in the very back, right?   Claire:  Yeah.   Denny:  Right. Okay.   Claire:  It's healed up. It took a while for it to be completely healed, I'd say like two months, but now you can barely even see the scar.   Denny:  94.1, KPFA. You're listening to Pushing Limits. I'm your host, Denny Daughters. Today, I'm talking to Claire and Michelle. Claire just finished telling us how she recovered from her cochlear implant surgery a couple years ago when she was in seventh grade.   While recovering from surgery, did you have a lot of schoolwork to make up?   Claire:  I only took off a couple days, and then I was back to school, and my teachers were very accommodating to me.  So, if I missed a test or I had something past due, like I couldn't turn it in, they would accommodate to me and let me do it because I had my surgery.   Michelle:  One of the things that was nice for Claire is a lot of times, people will get two cochlears at the same time, but because Claire had the one and then she has a hearing aid in her other ear, she was still able to hear through all of that process, which was really a nice advantage for her to have.   Claire:  Yeah.   Denny:  What was it like when your audiologist first turned on your cochlear implant?   Claire:  It was weird. It sounded like everyone was a robot. I couldn't hear out of it as well as my hearing aid, that's what I'm trying to say. If my mom talked, I couldn't really understand what she was saying. At night, I'd take out my hearing aid, and she'd cover her mouth and test, like she'd say words to see how well it improved. Eventually, we got to where my mom and dad would switch off saying words, and I wouldn't be able to say it, and now I can be like, “Oh, that's Mom,” “Oh, that's Dad,” “Oh, that's whoever.”   Denny:  Claire talks about when her audiologist turned on and adjusted the cochlear implant.   Claire:  I'd go in, and they would turn it on, and then I'd go in in another week, they'd test me and turn it up a little, and then in another two weeks, turn it up a little, see how well my tolerance for the sound needed to be and how high it should go or how low it should go. Now, we're to the point where it's like every six months, they make sure my hearing aid's not going down and I need another cochlear or anything like that.   Denny:  Claire, in your opinion, what's the possibility of you getting a second cochlear implant in your left ear?   Claire:  Personally, I think it's low, because my left hearing is good. If I take out my cochlear and my hearing aid, I can still hear out of my left ear a little bit. It's not a lot, but I can still hear a little bit.   Michelle:  Because they don't know the cause of her hearing loss, they said there's a chance that it could. Everything was so sporadic with her hearing loss in the first place, they just keep an eye on it, but they have no idea what that will look like.   Denny:  How long did it take for you to start recognizing different voices?   Claire:  Probably like three to four months, I'd say. But overall, for me to fully adjust, I'd say it'd take a year, because I had my year anniversary, and I'm doing a lot better now. Lip reading was a big thing when I downed my hearing aids at first. I'd be like, “What did you say?” I'm like, “Come closer. I need to read your lips.”   Denny:  Are you still pretty good at it?   Claire:  No.  I can still kind of do it, but it's very hard for me to read lips.   Michelle:  I think with the little bit of sound she was getting and the lips together, the combination…   Claire:  Yeah, with the little bit of sound.   Denny:  Did you have any other problems after getting your cochlear implant?   Claire:  It would give me headaches at first, because we got too strong of a magnet. There's different magnet strengths to stick on your head.   Denny:  The part of the cochlear implant that is detachable and sits on the outside of your ear, do they have a waterproof version of that so you can go swimming and take a shower?   Claire: There's no waterproof hearing aids, but there is an aqua kit for my cochlear implant, which I wish there was one for my hearing aid, because again, I can't hear out of my cochlear as well without my hearing aid, so I sometimes won't wear it, but at least I have that option.   Michelle:  And it's more of an option for swimming, not for showering and things.   Claire:  Yeah, not for showers.   Denny:  What was the support like from your friends and family?   Claire:  It's been good. My friends were really worried at first, because they didn't know why I was not at school for a while, because I didn't really tell them. They were supportive and really friendly. They'd write stuff on pieces of paper in school. I couldn't hear the teacher, so I'd ask them after, because we'd have little talks with our little groups with our teacher, and I wouldn't hear her.  So then, I'd ask my neighbor, and they were pretty accommodating in helping me.   And then, my family was super supportive. They adjusted to it. They would write stuff on pieces of paper or whiteboards to talk to me sometimes, or they would help my mom get my attention if she was further away.   Denny:  Have you ever been bullied or teased by other students?   Claire:  No.   Denny:  As we were talking about school, Claire brought up one of the frustrating things she encountered at school before she got her hearing aid.   Claire:  Before I got my hearing aid — because I didn't have it yet, because they had to make the mold and stuff – they'd give me this hearing aid that connected to a microphone so I could hear my teacher, but I couldn't hear anything else other than in that microphone, which got frustrating sometimes, because my teacher didn't know how to turn it off.   We'd go to art, and then I would hear my teacher talking to other teachers instead of my art teacher or whatever. It got frustrating at times, and I didn't like it as much as my hearing aid, but it was very nice of the accommodation, because then I could at least hear my teacher until I got my hearing aid.   Denny:  What kind of accommodations are you receiving?   Claire:  So, I have these two people who my mom can email. They can give me microphones that I can give to my teachers, which I don't like doing as much, but I can hook them up to a cord which go into my computer, so instead of having to wear headphones, which I can't really hear anyway, I just connected that, and then it goes from the computer into my hearing aid. Then they also will come, and if I need new tubing, which is a little thing that connects the ear mold and the electronic part of my hearing aid – like, my old one broke, and we can't get into my main ENT. My mom emailed her, and she came and fixed it for me. So, they'll just really help me with anything I need if they can.   Denny:  Tell me how the microphone connects to the computer and then to your hearing aid.   Claire:  There's a little thing. So, it plugs into the microphone, and then that thing that plugs in the microphone plugs into the computer, so instead of it plugging into my hearing aid, it plugs into the microphone. I can also use that on airplanes and stuff. I have one for at home that I got with my hearing aid, so I can also use that anywhere I really want.   Michelle:  Or if we were at a really busy place, you know, a really busy restaurant that was super loud –   Claire:  I could bring it with me and bring it to my mom –   Michelle:  She could bring it, yeah.   Claire:  — so I could hear her.   Denny:  Do things like music, listening to the radio, or different musical instruments sound any different with the cochlear implant?   Claire:  They sound about the same. My hearing aid, it's using the sound from my ear. It's not from my brain. With my cochlear, it sounds a little bit different, but with my hearing aid, it sounds basically the same.   Denny:  If you're eating something crunchy, like potato chips or carrots, you can still hear the crunch?   Claire:  Yeah. If I'm talking without my hearing aid and cochlear, I can hear myself, but I don't know how loud I am. Sometimes my friends will be like, “You're yelling,” and I just don't know. I don't have that concept of sound if I don't have any hearing aids in or cochlear or whatever.   Denny:  You have to see an audiologist every six months. Do you have to see an ENT, an ear, nose, and throat specialist, as well?   Claire:  No, just my audiologist. If it's like I'm losing my hearing and I need a cochlear or whatever, then we'll go see the ENT, but it's mainly my audiologist.   Michelle:  She just had her six-month checkup. The cochlear side that they tested, she's getting 68% accuracy in what she hears, which can sound not great, but without the cochlear, she would be hearing 0% and understanding 0% in that ear. Literally, when she was tested before in that ear, she understood zero. It's gone from 0 to 68. Every time she goes in, it does seem to increase some. It's not quite as good as her hearing aid ear, but almost hearing at 70% is a lot better than what she is without it.   Denny:  That's great. Claire, how do you feel about your numbers?   Claire:  I feel good about them. And, like, the sentences are really weird. They're like, “The sister-in-law is toxic poison,” so they're hard ones, too. That's one of the ones that I remember, because it was like I got 100% on them. They're weird ones, so sometimes I'm hesitant to say it, too. I can understand a lot better, too, with my hearing aid, which that was just with my cochlear.   Michelle:  With the combination, she actually hears really well.   Claire:  Yeah, with the combination, it's 100% or something. Michelle:  Yeah, or close to.   Claire:  95, 98 or whatever.   Denny:  Are there any activities that you can't do anymore because you have a cochlear implant?   Claire:  I can still swim, but it's kind of hard sometimes. It's good if it's an indoor place, because it's echoey, but sometimes I won't be able to hear them. It's harder if I'm with people, like at the ocean or whatever, because I don't want to wear my aqua kit thing because I'm worried I'm going to lose my cochlear. I can still do everything, but if I have to take off my hearing aid or cochlear, I'd rather not do it as much, because it's sometimes harder for me.   Denny:  When you're in a crowd or a noisy environment, is it hard to distinguish one voice from another?   Claire:  No, I can tell their tone of voice. Sometimes if it's really loud, my hearing aid, if it gets too close to something or something's really loud, it will send out a high-pitched noise. It's feedback. If I'm like at the audiologist's place, there's an elevator, and every time it comes down, it's like my hearing aid will give feedback at that event. It kind of hurts my ears when there's feedback, but I can take out my hearing aid, and I'll be fine.   Denny:  How long does the feedback last?   Claire:  As long as the noise is. So, if the noise is going on for a minute, the feedback's going to be going on for a minute, or if I'm laying against a pillow, it will be giving feedback until I get off the pillow. There's no feedback from my cochlear; it's just my hearing aid.   Denny:  Do you ever use the closed caption option when you watch TV?   Claire:  Not really, only if I don't have my hearing aids in or something. If I'm wanting to go to sleep because I'm getting tired, but I don't want to fall asleep with my hearing aids in — because I take them out, I put away my cochlear, I plug it in, my hearing aids on batteries – if I have my hearing aid and cochlear in, then I can just watch it, and I can still hear it just fine. I might turn it up a little louder, and people will be like, “Claire, we don't need to turn it up more. We need to turn it down more,” but I'm like, I can't hear it as well.   I could also put my microphone by the TV if I wanted to, just by the speaker of my TV, or Chromebook, or whatever I'm watching on. My hearing aid can Bluetooth connect to my iPhone, so it's like I'm having an AirPod or something in my ear, or an earbud. I can watch my TV show on my phone, and I can just hear it. Or like I'm cleaning my room, I can listen to my music while I come into the kitchen to grab something. I can still hear it, even though I'm far away from my room. I usually use Siri.   Michelle:  It reads all of her texts to her, so if she gets a text, it just pops up in her hearing aid.   Claire:  Yeah. So, I go to school, and they don't like us having our phones, so I make it so Siri reads me my text messages, so if it's an emergency, I can be like, “Oh, I need to look at my phone,” which is nice, because then I have it at school.   Denny:  Michelle, have you noticed any differences in Claire since she got the cochlear implant and hearing aid?   Michelle:  It was kind of weird, because she was hearing. There was a few months in there, but it was relatively short compared to someone who hadn't heard and then could hear. It was amazing for her to come home that first day with hearing aids and go, “I can hear my footsteps on the floor. I can hear my cup set down on the table. I can hear an airplane,” and it made me wonder a little bit if maybe her hearing had been fading a little bit before that, and she didn't know. I don't know.   Claire:  I think it did, because I'd do the hearing tests at school that they make you do in elementary. They were saying they were lower than normal.   Michelle:  Yeah, but still in a normal range. The hearing aid is kind of like an instant difference for her. Like, she didn't have them, she puts them in, it's like a microphone so she can hear immediately. The cochlear took about a year to adapt to, and so there was that difference, but when she got the hearing aids and could immediately just hear, we were just so grateful for that, because it was hard for her in this environment to not be able to hear.  I would flash the lights if I was trying to get her attention or different things like that.   Claire:  You still do that.   Denny:  Have you ever forgotten to charge one of your batteries?   Claire:  Actually, recently. I was at school, and it was dying because my battery thing for my cochlear was unplugged all night. I plugged it back in, and then right before I went to babysitting, I just switched it and went over and babysat. My hearing aid is on batteries, so it will let me know when it's low on battery, and then I'll switch it. On my phone, I can also look and be like, okay, I have 20%, so I still have time.   Denny:  Claire, what advice would you give to somebody who's thinking about getting a cochlear implant?   Claire:  I'd say it's a very good option, and even though it's frustrating at times, you just have to keep going with it, because there's going to be people sounding like robots, but if you don't wear it, they're going to keep sounding like robots. If you learn ASL beforehand, it helps, because then you can still talk to people after. There's a learning curve with it, is what I'm trying to say.   Michelle:  I agree. I think that it's definitely scary going into anything unknown. That's normal. It does require a lot of patience. With her hearing aid, it was instant hearing, and with this, it's not, and it does require a lot of patience, but given time, it's definitely been the right choice for Claire. I think part of that is getting the right audiologist and ENT, so I think if you don't feel confident or comfortable with how they're treating your healthcare, it's worth trying someone new.   Claire:  Switching, yeah.   Michelle:  So, that has made such a difference. We've seen that as being a big factor in her journey.   Denny:  I'd like to thank both Claire and Michelle for sharing their story with me and for letting me interview them for this episode of Pushing Limits. I'd also like to thank my wife, Deah Daughters, for coming up with the idea for this show.   Today's show was hosted, edited, and produced by Denny Daughters.

Radu Naum s-a întors de puțin timp din concediul petrecut în afara țării, nu foarte departe de casă. O să aflați amănunte în episod. Doar că nici bine n-a venit și iar are nemulțumiri.

Pentru că, așa cum știm, domnul prim-ministru a promis să taie cheltuielile, că va face un stat ergonomic și că va crește niște taxe.

Warrior woman— She's back. The voice. You know the one. Draped in drama. Lip red. Martini in hand. She walks in like she owns the place. And says it, without blinking: “It's not good enough. You're not good enough.” She shows up right when you should be celebrating. After the launch. After the race. After the thing you poured your whole damn self into. Instead of joy? You spiral. This episode is about her. The inner critic. The elegant saboteur. The one who pushes—and punishes. It's about me. And it's probably about you. I'm pulling the curtain back on what's been happening behind the scenes:

Devastation is the distraction, and the world is not being allowed to see. When will the focus shift back to Gaza? Resetting the camera angle for a convincing story. You are never locked out from learning more. Never say you are not good at politics. Gridlock excuses inaction. Leadership thrives when we feel helpless. The dirty details on the Iran debacle. Amplifying the need for clarity. The stage is on fire, and truth gets smoked out in distractions. The problem isn't chaos, it's multi-domain cleansing. Life is about planting the right seeds. The ultimate check play. This war, like others, has the same patterns and shields. The US is desperate to control China via naval assets. Energy supplies are key. By-product that are good for the Gulf. The new land based alternative. Iran is China's back up plan. Strategic disability for planners. Lip wristed pussies with no missile defense. The NATO member to watch is Turkey. They host US nukes. Russia's has real red lines. Chinese rail tech is a Trojan horse on tracks. And they watch everything. Trade flow leverage is real. When man's hand gets into the Bible, the written word is changed. Book two is out and it shows how they skew things. Shadow groups and code words. Let's all recognize the courage it takes to stand against the system that feeds off chaos.

You'll never ever get a chicken in your whole entire life but you can have the only episode we have gotten time to record in 2 months! We hate that new boyfriend so bad and we simply can't stop hating you can't make us.

Aujourd'hui, j'ai le plaisir de vous emmener à Morteau, dans les ateliers de la manufacture Yema. En effet, cette marque, détenue par le groupe Ambre depuis 2009, a subi une transformation, que dis-je, une mutation impressionnante en seulement quelques années. Je me devais donc de vous en parler ! L'objectif de cette évolution ? : concevoir et fabriquer ses calibres en quasi totale autonomie, ce qui est unique en France. En seulement 3 ans, avec l'aide d'Olivier Mory, la marque a été capable de développer et commercialiser ses propres calibres exclusifs, du micro-rotor au tourbillon, en passant par l'automatique classique à rotor central. Et c'est William Germain, directeur de marque, qui nous explique toutes les phases de cette évolution, du rachat en 2009 au premiers calibres maison, sans oublier la fulgurante expansion de ces dernières années. Dans les locaux de la manufacture, on sent clairement qu'un nouvel élan s'est amorcé et les projets semblent fuser dans l'esprit de Christopher Bôle, le DG de Yema, qui nous a fait le plaisir de se prêter à l'exercice de l'interview en fin d'épisode. Enfin, nous parlons aussi d'une montre qui fût présentée en exclusivité lors du Time Fest : la Granvelle. Une étonnante montre élégante abritant le fameux calibre maison CMM20 à micro-rotor. J'espère sincèrement que vous aurez autant de plaisir à visionner cet épisode que nous en avons eu à le réaliser Avant de commencer, sachez que cet épisode est, comme d'habitude, disponible en version audio sur toutes les plateformes de podcast mais également en vidéo sur ma chaine Youtube Des Montres & Vous.

Yes—our hosts are self-proclaimed Elk-Oholics and in this episode, they can all agree on how inspiring this species and the habitat they co-exist in is. This episode was inspired by a listener's question about filming elk, which culminated in a discussion about the unique experience of the elk rut. They discuss the importance of storytelling in capturing the essence of wildlife, the personal connections formed during encounters with these animals, and the dynamics of elk behavior and reproduction. The conversation also highlights memorable experiences in elk country, practical tips for photographing elk, and the significance of safety and awareness in the wild. They share personal anecdotes, pro tips for landscape photography, and the importance of being aware of animal behavior to seize the perfect moment. The discussion also highlights the unpredictability of wildlife encounters and the joy of storytelling through photography.Sound Bites"It's Photo-X week!""I'm having a little bit of imposter syndrome.""I was irresponsible with my drone.""Let's do an episode on filming Elk!""It's the quietness that gets exploded!""Elk are a favorite year round!""You gotta tell the whole life story.""You never know when things happen.""That was probably the best experience I had.""He just kind of ran things.""Canadian elk, not so much.""Lip curling is predictable with a keen eye.""You can literally put it on a billboard.""It's incredible how aware those animals are.""This is my favorite Mark Raycroft elk shot.""You get to know their personalities.""It's wildlife.
