This season, we're looking at books that inspire the minds of the future presidents in your family. Those kiddos who write carefully-crafted pleas to the Tooth Fairy. Or rally their classes around calls for longer recess. The ones who inspire the family to shirk plastic straws in the new year. Or who would really just like a healthy planet to live on, thank you very much. Theirs are the little voices with the big ideas that stand to shape our shared futures, and we are HERE it. We close this season of ‘Little Voices, Big Ideas' with Sofia Valdez, Future Prez. This 2019 title, written by Andrea Beatty and illustrated by David Roberts, tells the story of what one girl–”just a kid”--can accomplish through summoning the courage to speak up. In Sofia's case, the truth that needs speaking is that a dangerous garbage pile stands to harm the town of Blue Creek. Once Sofia rallies her friends, family, and neighbors around her, a movement grows, and a park gets built where Mount Trashmore once stood. Host Sarah DeBacher is joined by fellow bookworms and co-conspirators in using picture books to change the world, Susan Larson, host of the podcast “The Reading Life”, children's book author and public scholar, Freddie Evans, and philosophy professor and author of multiple books on teaching philosophy to the youngest among us, Thomas Wartenberg. We will also hear from 8-year-old Leah and her father, Thomas, who you may recognize from another episode, recorded back when Leah was just 5. The two of them let Sofia Valdez, Future Prez lead them–and us–through a broad range of topics on what it means to live, young and old, in a country built Of, By, and For the People. Let's do it. Let's go… beyond the bedtime story.
Farmer Brown has a problem. Not only have his cows taken up… typing, but they've used their newfound skill to put their hooves down. The barn, they say, in typewritten notes tacked to its door, is cold. And unless Farmer Brown supplies them with some electric blankets to help them brace the herd against the biting chill? Well? No more milk. Not one to be cowed by the threats of… cows, Farmer Brown lets the herd know it's a no-go. But then hens cluck up, too, hatching a plan to join the cows. No blankets? No eggs. What's a Farmer Brown to do? ‘Little Voices, Big Ideas' organizes itself around the idea that children's picture books build solidarity–and allow us to have collective conversations–brothers and sisters and grownups, alike–about the big ideas that strike chords in all of our hearts. This season, the big deal of democracy. Each episode, we explore a story with themes like justice, liberty, and speaking truth to power… or, speaking MOO to power. On this episode, Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin's Caldecott Award-winning book, Click Clack, Moo: Cows That Type. Published in 2000, this barn-raiser of a book uses anthropomorphism (that's when non-human things, like cows, take on human characteristics, like announcing a milk-strike through type-written notes) to help the youngest among us understand labor moooovements. Joining the herd on this episode are children's book author and historian, Freddie Evans, philosophy professor to the youngest among us, Thomas Wartenberg, and literacy scholar and writer, Kyley Pulphus. We will also hear from 7-year-old JoJo and his uncle James, and from some familiar voices from season 1, host Sarah DeBacher's 9- and 12-year-old sons, Charlie and Robin. We hope you'll join us, too! Find Click Clack Moo, Cows that Type at your local library and go with us… beyond the bedtime story.

Mr. Plumbean lives on a neat street, where all the houses are the same. That is, until a seagull drops a giant can of bright orange paint on the roof of Mr. Plumbean's house. Will Mr. Plumbean “fix” that splot, returning his house to the ticky-tacky neatness that existed before? Or, will he do something altogether… different, changing his block, and his neighbors, forever? The second season of Little Voices, Big Ideas, kicks off with a SPLOT. Daniel Manus Pinkwater's 1977 book, The Big Orange Splot, highlights a key tension encountered by all of us living in a shared democracy: that of individual freedom versus collective responsibility. Where does one end and the other begin? Host Sarah DeBacher, along with panelists Tom Wartenberg and Freddi Evans, discuss the book's themes and approaches to discussing them with young people. Highlights from a conversation about The Big Orange Splot between eight-year-old Jude and his mother, Kelly, are also included. This podcast is a production of Prime Time Family Reading, a project of the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities, and is funded by generous grants from the Community Foundation of Northwest Louisiana and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.

Lisa is joined by Wyatt Forte who talks about his memoir, Those Not So Little Voices: From Adolescent Psychosis to Wellness and EmpowermentSummaryIn this conversation, Lisa Davis and Wyatt Forte discuss Wyatt's personal experience with mental illness, specifically hearing voices and dealing with paranoia. Wyatt shares his journey from the onset of his symptoms at a young age to his diagnosis and treatment. He discusses the impact of his parents' divorce and the fear and trauma associated with his experiences. Wyatt also provides tips for dealing with voices and hallucinations, emphasizing the importance of seeking professional help and finding coping mechanisms. In this conversation, Wyatt Forte discusses his book 'Those Not So Little Voices' and shares his experiences with mental illness. The conversation covers the importance of physical activity in managing mental health, the lack of resources for mental illness in children, strategies for avoiding arguments with someone experiencing mental illness, the importance of building a supportive community, the benefits of cognitive behavioral therapy, and grounding techniques for overwhelm and anxiety.TakeawaysMental illness can have a significant impact on relationships, causing stress and strain on both the individual and their loved ones.The onset of hearing voices can be sudden and terrifying, especially for a young child who may not understand what is happening.The fear of speaking out about mental illness and the stigma associated with it can prevent individuals from seeking help and support.The journey to a diagnosis and effective treatment for mental illness can be complex and may require trying different medications and therapies.The disappearance of voices and symptoms may bring mixed emotions, as individuals may struggle to define their identity without the presence of their illness.It is important to challenge stigmatizing beliefs and misconceptions about mental illness and to promote understanding and empathy. Physical activity can have significant benefits for mental health, even though it may initially seem unrelated to mental illness.There is a lack of resources and support for children with mental illness, particularly for disorders like schizophrenia that typically present later in life.When interacting with someone experiencing mental illness, it is important to avoid arguments and instead provide support and understanding.Building a community of understanding and supportive individuals is crucial for individuals with mental illness.Cognitive behavioral therapy can be helpful in managing mental illness and building skills for long-term well-being.Grounding techniques, such as focusing on reality and naming tangible things, can help manage overwhelm and anxiety.The book 'Those Not So Little Voices' by Wyatt Forte is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble's website.Chapters00:00Introduction and Personal Experience with Mental Illness01:29Impact of Mental Illness on Relationships02:44Onset of Hearing Voices and Fear04:01Discovering the Society and Threats05:43Fear of Speaking Out and Trauma06:27Alice in Wonderland Syndrome08:18The Society and Paranoia09:12Fear of Father's Involvement10:52Impact of Parents' Divorce11:54Diagnosis and Treatment Journey19:38Lying About Voices to Get Out of Hospital25:57Mixed Emotions After Voices Disappeared29:31Lack of Definitive Diagnosis36:07Tips for Dealing with Voices and Hallucinations37:53The Importance of Physical Activity39:23Lack of Resources for Mental Illness in Kids40:35Avoiding Arguments with Someone Experiencing Mental Illness43:30Building a Supportive Community45:18The Benefits of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy46:16Grounding Techniques for Overwhelm and Anxiety46:28Where to Find the BookThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5948889/advertisement

TW: This episode mentions experiences of sexual violence, child abuse, and psychological trauma.--Kiersten dubbed herself initially as a relucant medium, when she realized she could communicate with people, children specifically, who had passed away. Initially, she didn't believe it herself and wasn't sure what to do with it. But then, when it was most needed in her life, the voices of those she communicates with (and those alive and well in her life today), stood by her through a disruption of chaos and then a healing journey of her own like no other. Listen in today with my interview with Kiersten to hear her lessons, and even if you're not able to communicate with those who have passed (or fully skeptical about it anyway), she shares points of wisdom that any of us can take home and try.Learn more about Kiersten and get her book, here: https://www.kierstenhathcock.com/ Support the show

Our final episode in our Ghosts and Ghouls series concludes with a discussion about Mediums; Are they for real? What does the Bible say? How to spot a fake! PLUS, our Heretic of the Week is medium Kiersten Hathcock, author of Little Voices.Check out all the QuoirCast podcasts at quoir.com.
Intuitive Medium Kiersten Hathcock and Retired NYPD Detective Mark Pucci discuss their decade-long partnership working on missing persons and homicide cases. About my guests: Kiersten Parsons Hathcock is a Shark Tank-winning, self-taught carpenter & furniture designer who defied the odds and built an internationally-known furniture company out of her garage. But what most don't know is that she's also an ordinary woman who was thrown into extraordinary circumstances at the age of 36 when she suddenly started seeing and hearing the spirits of dead children, some of whom were killed by predators. Her intuitive awakening led to partnerships with detectives around the country and a publishing deal for her memoir called Little Voices, which was released in September 2022. But it doesn't end there. Little did Kiersten know at the time, the kids weren't just coming to her for help...they were coming to save her life. Kiersten is an incredibly vulnerable, well-spoken, down-to-earth, credible mom-of-two (and childhood sexual abuse survivor) who inspires people of all ages to trust their intuition as a roadmap for life and healing. Detectives and families around the country are ardent supporters of her decade-long work as a volunteer medium. Her story is unique in many ways (see below). Topics include but are not limited to: Developing Intuition, Life as a Psychic Detective, Healing from Narcissistic/Sociopathic Abuse, Using Intuition in Business, Surviving and Escaping from Domestic Violence, Healing from Childhood Sexual Abuse, What I've Learned as the Parent of a Transgender Adult. Retired NYPD Detective Mark Pucci is the founder of the National Institute for Law & Justice. According to the National Missing and Unidentified Persons (NamUS) database, which is funded by the U.S. Department of Justice, more than 600,000 persons of all ages go missing every year, and approximately 4,400 unidentified bodies are recovered every year. It's no wonder law enforcement partners are struggling to devote the time they want and need to solving missing persons cases (and homicide cases). Families are forced to look for additional investigative help, and this can be costly. This is the very reason Mark Pucci founded NILJ. Our goal is to ensure that each family does not have to pay out-of-pocket for much-needed investigative services. Generous personal and corporate donations as well as grant monies provide funds our services for families desperately searching for answers and hope. #truecrime #trauma #mentalhealth #criminaljustice #lawandcrime #courttv Collier's Links: ➡️ Wanna say thanks for a great episode? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/collierlandry ➡️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/collierlandry ➡️ Check out my Merch Store: https://www.collierlandry.com/store ➡️ Amazon Affiliate Link: https://www.collierlandry.com/amazon ➡️ YouTube- https://www.youtube.com/collierlandry Collier's Live Schedule, updated on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook: Instagram: Tuesday 2 pm ET / 11 am PT YouTube: Wednesdays & Thursdays @ 6pm ET / 3pm PT ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/collierlandry/ ▶ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@collierlandry ▶ Twitter: https://twitter.com/collierlandry ▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/collierlandry ▶ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/collierlandry/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode we chat to Jane James, the Founder and CEO of a wonderful company called Little Voices that works with young people across the UK. Jane talks to us about the benefits she felt when she decided to go alcohol-free, and how she navigated her sobriety when she was starting a new relationship with her now husband (she met him after she'd just completed a 30 day break from alcohol, but it took her a little longer to go completely AF). She also talks to us very honestly about the physical and mental breakdown she experienced when she was 18 months alcohol-free due to stress - and how becoming alcohol-free isn't the magic solution to all of life's problems. We talk about how being alcohol-free is often the first (and crucial) step in a much bigger health and wellness journey - and how finding ways to switch off and unwind without alcohol is a massively important part of the process. If you'd like to find out more about Jane or her company Little Voices, just search for "Little Voices" on social media - and don't forget to listen to her new podcast, The School Run, which is available now on all podcast apps! --- Get In Touch: Of course, you can always get in touch with us (publicly or privately) on our socials - @alcoholfreepod on Instagram, or search for "Over The Influence" on Facebook.

There's this reel that always pops up in Instagram feed, I'm not sure if you've seen it but people upload videos of their daughters along with a voiceover that says “to all the parents of stubborn little girls with fierce attitudes. Don't put out that fire, she's going to need it.”I chuckle to myself, picturing my own little dynamo - but at the same time, I feel conflicted. So much of me wants to raise children who are vocal activists, fierce advocates, and people who aren't afraid to stand up for what's right and call out what's wrong. But then of course, there is the other side of me who wants to make sure my kids are respectful, considerate, and open to the plain and simple fact that sometimes we do just have to take “it”. We are living in a time when people and especially females are finally getting comfortable with using their voice and that thrills me. Women are showing up and taking over in politics, climate change is being propelled by a teenage girl. The way it's always been isn't good enough anymore and I for one am here for it. So that's what we are going to talk about today. How can we as parents stoke the curiosity of our little people in a way that enables them to feel comfortable advocating for themselves and calling out injustice while still understanding the importance of respect and consideration for others? How can moms who maybe aren't comfortable shouting from the rooftops or putting themselves in front of a microphone raise kids who are and who can? Let's find out.With me today is Dr. Ashley Solomon, a licensed clinical psychologist, leadership coach, and founder of Galia Collaborative, a Cincinnati, Ohio-based mental health practice that works to provide women with the resources they need to overcome obstacles at home and at work to reclaim their power. From mental health and managing relationships to raising changemakers and advocating for support, freemom is a podcast dedicated to ensuring that every mom feels heard.

Music fans, festival fans, you are in for a treat on this episode of FestivalPass Stories as our Host, Pat Tully, interviews award winning recording artist, Crystal Starr...and yes, she would like you to know that is her real name! Crystal takes us inside the “Starrship,” her home recording studio, to share with us her life in music and how she taken her talent to the ‘stars.' From a young age, Crystal was performing for her family and friends with ease. There's talent, but when that talent is combined with a stage presence, you have the making of a star and that was evident at an early age with Crystal. It was no surprise that SOURCE Magazine dubbed her “The girl with the golden voice” because we heard it ourselves. Her influences come from many genres but the 80's simply drip from her music. From playing festivals like “Electric Forest” to her philanthropic work with “Little Voices,” her style and passion shine through. We had a great time in the Starrship and we know you will too.

It is a pleasure to welcome award-winning singer, songwriter, and philanthropist Crystal Starr to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. Crystal is known as “The Girl with the Golden Voice.” She has captivated audiences worldwide through her well-crafted brand. Her colorful visuals, powerful voice, and pop-feel-good aesthetic are thrillingly mesmerizing, and her style has a modern day twist to the 1980s and 1990s pop music. At 16-years-old and without a single voice lesson, Crystal landed her first professional gig singing for Jessica Simpson. Since then, she shared the stage with a plethora of recording artists such as Ariana Grande, Drake, the Jacksons, Lady Gaga, Paul Stanley, Pitbull, and Stevie Wonder. She also had a starring role in the hit Broadway show Baby It's You. Recently, she also performed at the 2022 Electric Forest Festival, which was attended by over 100,000 people and shared the stage with the String Cheese Incident. Crystal has released three albums and her second record, #SHE, had two singles in the top 100 music charts. Several singles include: “All Mine,” which Crystal Starr co-produced with Grammy-nominated producers Bizkit and Butta, and “Head Over Heels,” produced by Renard Hughes and Grammy-winning producer Keith Harris. In addition to her music endeavors, Crystal founded the Little Voices Nonprofit after having seen first-hand the many hardships and disappointments foster kids endure, she realized that she could combine her passion for music and serving others to help represent those who feel they are voiceless. Since its inception, the Little Voices Nonprofit has impacted the lives of over 1 million kids in foster care or inner cities. In this edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Crystal Starr spoke about the stories behind some of her songs, such as “I Still Love You” and “Goodie Two Shoes.” She also spoke about sharing the stage with the Jacksons, Lady Gaga, and Stevie Wonder, plus Little Voices.

Kiersten Parsons Hathcock was a self-proclaimed "reluctant medium": One day, her life was about making her line of kids furniture and trips to Target, and the next, she was hearing and seeing children who had died, most of whom had suffered intensely and died at the hands of predators. She went on to use her gifts to assist law enforcement in the unsolved cases of these children. But the story doesn't end there - as much as she helped the children, they ended up helping Kiersten heal from her own horrific abuse. It's all chronicled in her new book, Little Voices: How Kids in Spirit Helped a Reluctant Medium Escape and Heal from Abuse. Listen in for a fascinating story about learning to trust your intuition and using it as a roadmap for life!
LITTLE VOICES FROM BEYOND with KIERSTEN PARSONS-HATHCOCK “The biggest lesson I've learned is that I have to trust that quiet inner knowing.” – Kiersten Parsons-Hathcock, medium who channels messages from children from beyond Episode Summary: What would you do if you started hearing the voices of murdered children? Today we talk with Kiersten Parsons-Hathcock, author of Little Voices: How Kids in Spirit Helped a Reluctant Medium Escape and Heal from Abuse. Kiersten is an award-winning carpenter/furniture designer, and founder of Mod Mom Furniture, a kids' furniture company featured on ABC's Shark Tank. She's also a TEDx speaker and an intuitive medium who works for the National Institute for Law and Justice helping detectives and families uncover truth in missing persons and homicide cases. Listen in to hear Kiersten's fascinating journey into channeling the little voices who needed to be heard. Topics We Discuss: [4:19] How Kiersten's psychic gifts showed up – as little voices coming to her. She didn't ask for it; it just happened. [8:05] What Kiersten experiences when she hears from these children. How she manages what she finds out. [10:11] How the Universe connected Kiersten with law enforcement. She now works with law enforcement and with parents of lost kids. [12:47] After the channeled messages from children were validated by law enforcement in the physical world, and Kiersten's confidence grew, she was able to recall own sexual abuse at age five. [13:46] Kiersten's accuracy when channeling information about murdered children has increased with experience. She describes her gift as a blessing and a curse. [17:46] How Kiersten's repressed memories emerged. She eventually confronted her abuser. Later she found herself in extramarital relationship with another abuser. Standing up to an abuser as an adult healed her childhood abuse. [29:40] How Kiersten was groomed by her adult abuser. There were no intuitive warnings at first. But later, she started hearing how she was meant to have that experience, leave it, and write about it. [34:17] How common it is for adults who experienced childhood abuse to repeat experiences as an adult, with an unconscious intention to break the cycle. The psychological and the spiritual come together in a soup of dissociation, mental health and spiritual connection. [37:32] How Kiersten's little voices guided her, allowing her to safely escape from a potentially dangerous relationship with a predator.
