The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn't free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her on children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause.

Your Hope-Filled Perspective with Dr. Michelle Bengtson podcast
Episode Summary: In this episode of Your Hope-Filled Perspective, I’m joined by my friend, Pastor Jessica Van Roekel, as we talk about something so many of us are facing today—the growing challenges of stress and a work-life balance that feels anything but balanced. Together, we share from our personal stories, our professional backgrounds, and, most importantly, from a place of faith. We offer practical strategies to help you reclaim peace, set healthy boundaries, and redefine what true success looks like. My hope is that through our honest conversation, you’ll be reminded that grace and flexibility are available, and that lasting peace is found when we anchor our lives in faith. Quotables from the episode: Stress is something we all face to a greater or lesser extent. We live in a culture that promotes “If it’s going to be, it’s up to me” but if we aren’t careful to attend to appropriate stress management, prolonged stress can have a detrimental impact on our physical, emotional, mental well-being. If we go too long, for too strong, ultimately our bodies will demand we stop. So how do we work toward better work-life balance? Stress comes from a variety of places, but if we don’t learn to manage stress, it will manage us. We as women struggle with the work/life balance in a unique way because culture tells us success is gained or lost in the workplace, yet we are often the primary caregivers for our family (including everything from laundry to holiday costume sewing to permission slip signing to kissing boo-boos). In 1970, about 43 percent of women ages 16 and older were in the labor force. By 2000, 61 percent of adult women were in the labor force and that has continued through today. Arguably, today women have more on their plates than a generation ago, with less down time to rest and restore. Stress is a physiological and psychological response that occurs when we perceive a threat or challenge that EXCEEDS OUR COPING RESOURCES. This perception triggers the body's CENTRAL STRESS MGMT SYSTEM, particularly the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and the sympathetic nervous system (increased Heart Rate, Blood is directed to our muscles, increased alertness so you can face danger or run away) leading to the release of stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. Once stress passes, the HPA axis should return to normal but often doesn’t because we live life in a heightened state of stress. Our brain doesn’t know the difference between good stress and bad stress. While this natural stress response is useful for short-term danger, chronic stress keeps these hormones elevated for extended periods, which can harm both mental and physical health. Perfect balance is a myth; instead, balance is fluid and flexible. Sometimes career demands take precedence, while other times, family needs do. Extending grace to yourself and adjusting priorities based on seasons of life can prevent both guilt and burnout. The myth of “multi-tasking”—it’s physiologically impossible for your brain to multitask. Physically, chronic stress can cause headaches, muscle tension, fatigue, and a weakened immune system. It also raises the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, digestive issues, and sleep disturbances, impacting overall physical wellness. Stress has significant effects on brain function and structure. ACUTE stress can sharpen focus and improve short-term performance by enhancing activity in brain regions like the amygdala and prefrontal cortex. However, chronic stress can have adverse effects and lead to structural changes in the brain, such as a reduction in the size of the hippocampus (affecting memory) and prefrontal cortex (affecting decision-making and executive function), while potentially increasing the size and activity of the amygdala (heightening emotional responses). Chronic stress often leads to constant worry, difficulty concentrating, and memory issues. The brain, under prolonged stress, struggles to function optimally, making it harder to focus and think clearly. Emotionally, prolonged stress can lead to feelings of irritability, anxiety, and even hopelessness and despair. It can cause mood swings and may contribute to depression, as persistent stress wears down emotional resilience. Constant connectivity has been shown to increase stress, as people may feel pressured by comparisons, notifications, and the need to stay updated. Increased academic and career pressures, societal instability, and economic uncertainty can all contribute to heightened stress. Having too much on our plate in one arena of our life leading to insufficient time and energy to devote to other areas of our life can spur stress. Consider adopting both a weekly and daily planning ritual across both your work and personal life whereby you establish the top 10 priorities for the week, then the top 3 priorities for each day, while circling the non-negotiable tasks. This narrows our focus and reduces the overwhelm of a long to-do list. When we consider that stress arises when situations exceed our coping resources and anxiety results from a fear of losing control, if we lower our expectations of others it leads to decreased stress & anxiety when things don’t measure up. Also, we often expect more from ourselves than do others. If you were to list everything you expect of yourself in a day or week, would you reasonably expect the same from others? Set Boundaries: we teach people how to treat us, and part of that is by setting and respecting boundaries. This includes learning to say “no” or “not now” gracefully and asking for help without guilt. Furthermore, appropriate boundary setting includes prioritizing non-negotiable family time, reserving specific hours for work, and protecting time for self-care. Consider Self-Care as Non-Negotiable: Redefine self-care as essential for your mental and physical health, including basics like adequate nutrition, exercise, scheduled rest breaks throughout the day, and consistent sleep-hygiene. Self-care also includes self-compassion especially on challenging days. There are no perfect days, but how we talk to ourselves on both good and challenging days matters! Pay attention to your thoughts and assess if you would talk to a friend the way you talk to yourself? Adopt a growth mindset: understanding that true success includes inner peace and joy, not just career milestones. Redefine “Success” in the Context of Balance: Never has anyone said at the end of their life that they wish they’d worked more. Consider envisioning a successful life that includes time for loved ones, mental wellness, and personal fulfillment. Return to Faith as Your Foundation: Surrender control to God and stay anchored in faith. Scripture References: Ecclesiastes 3 Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Isaiah 30:15 “This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “Only in returning to me and resting in me will you be saved. In quietness and confidence is your strength. But you would have none of it.” Psalm 23 Recommended Resources: Reframing Rejection: How Looking Through a Different Lens Changes Everything By Jessica Van Roekel Sacred Scars: Resting in God’s Promise That Your Past Is Not Wasted by Dr. Michelle Bengtson The Hem of His Garment: Reaching Out To God When Pain Overwhelms by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner AWSA 2024 Golden Scroll Christian Living Book of the Year and the 2024 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in the Christian Living and Non-Fiction categories YouVersion 5-Day Devotional Reaching Out To God When Pain Overwhelms Today is Going to be a Good Day: 90 Promises from God to Start Your Day Off Right by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, AWSA Member of the Year, winner of the AWSA 2023 Inspirational Gift Book of the Year Award, the 2024 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in the Devotional category, the 2023 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in four categories, and the Christian Literary Awards Henri Award for Devotionals YouVersion Devotional, Today is Going to be a Good Day version 1 YouVersion Devotional, Today is Going to be a Good Day version 2 Revive & Thrive Women’s Online Conference Revive & Thrive Summit 2 Trusting God through Cancer Summit 1 Trusting God through Cancer Summit 2 Breaking Anxiety’s Grip: How to Reclaim the Peace God Promises by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the AWSA 2020 Best Christian Living Book First Place, the first place winner for the Best Christian Living Book, the 2020 Carolina Christian Writer’s Conference Contest winner for nonfiction, and winner of the 2021 Christian Literary Award’s Reader’s Choice Award in all four categories for which it was nominated (Non-Fiction Victorious Living, Christian Living Day By Day, Inspirational Breaking Free and Testimonial Justified by Grace categories.)

[00:10:12] Ken mentions that after MIT, JP went to Duke University where he pursued mechanical engineering and also went to law school. Given this workload, Ken asks if JP ever had any free time while studying at Duke. [00:13:26] Tim mentions that while JP was in law school, he got a job at a patent firm. After obtaining his law degree, JP's uncle called and offered JP an opportunity. [00:17:42] Tim explains that JP's career has focused on neuroimmunology, or the study of how the nervous system and immune system interact. Neuroimmunology affects a wide range of health factors including inflammation, mental health and aging. Tim also explains that JP has recently authored a book on neuroimmunology titled “The Vagus Immune Connection: Harness Your Vagus Nerve to Manage Stress, Prevent Immune Dysregulation and Avoid Chronic Disease.” Tim asks JP to touch on the key features of neuroimmunology that people should be aware of. [00:21:59] Tim asks JP to touch on the epigenetic factors regarding neuroimmunology. [00:25:01] Since JP brought up Dr. Kevin Tracey's work, Ken mentions that Kevin was recently interviewed on STEM-Talk episode 172 and encourages listeners to listen to that episode for more context on the vagus nerve and neuroimmunology. [00:25:48] JP talks about how he stumbled upon the idea of how stimulating a nerve may have the same clinical benefit that sometimes occurs as a result of cutting a nerve. [00:28:16] Tim talks about the unintended consequences he observed as surgeon when he cut a patient's vagus nerve. [00:30:50] Ken mentions that another area where JP has had impact with respect to stimulating the vagus nerve is the treatment of asthma and asks JP to talk about his findings in this area. [00:40:10] Tim notes that after JP knew that non-invasive approaches to vagus-nerve stimulation were possible, he went on to optimize a delivery device. These efforts resulted in a device called gamaCore. Tim asks JP to talk about this device and how it works. [00:43:27] Tim asks JP to talk about what it feels like for patients to have their vagus nerve stimulated. [00:44:50] Ken asks if JP thinks that his and others' work in vagus-nerve stimulation inspired the development of similar devices for orthopedic pain, where the device is implanted near the nerve on the knee or other area experiencing pain.

Ever realize it's 3 PM and all you've had is coffee and maybe a handful of something from the pantry? It happens. Lunch tends to be the meal that gets skipped, rushed, or thrown together last minute. But if you've been feeling drained, distracted, or dealing with mid-afternoon cravings, what you eat midday could be making a bigger impact than you think. In this solo episode, we're talking about why lunch matters (especially for women over 35) and how to make it work when life is busy. I'll share simple, high-protein meal ideas that don't take forever to prep, tips for meal prep that actually fit into a packed schedule, and on-the-go options for those days when sitting down for lunch just isn't happening. Key Points: ✅ How a solid lunch can keep your energy steady and cravings in check. ✅ The easiest ways to get enough protein without overcomplicating it. ✅ Quick, realistic meal ideas for busy days—whether you prefer to meal prep or need something fast. ✅ Easy grab-and-go options for when you don't have time to cook. ✅ Small shifts that make a big difference in how you feel by the end of the day. ✅ And so much more… If lunch hasn't been a priority, maybe it's time to change that. It doesn't have to be perfect—just something that works for you. A little planning goes a long way in keeping you fueled, focused, and feeling good. Want to stress less and feel better?

We had a 7 day cruise booked and we have been looking forward to this for months. The last few days have really been a nightmare with mum being rushed into Emergency surgery on Thursday night, and then feeling really unwell post operation, to now being the day before we were meant to leave and she is back in Emergency for the week. We've had to cancel our trip and are truely devastated. I honestly don't know what I would do without my gratitude practice to be honest. Moments like this really test you, and I woke up so angry at the world, so frustrated at how unfair life has to be. I opened my journal and it was the last thing I wanted to do but I sat down and did it. It changed the narrative for me. I am so thankful mum is in Sydney for this, not stuck in the ocean on a cruise. It would of been a disaster if she was so sick on our trip. I am so grateful to live in the same city as mum and my family, and to be able to be there for her. I am so grateful for my own health and being able to go for a walk and move my body. The list really goes on and It changed my entire perspective this morning. This story leads us into the solo episode for today which is how to manage stress.

Seeking a way to better navigate these demands, Courtney enrolled in the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Program at the Myrna Brind Center for Mindfulness at Jefferson in Philadelphia, PA.

Happy New Year! In this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast host Elizabeth Cush shares her take on New Year's resolutions and offers listeners a guided meditation. “How I can bring more of the good and the positive into my life from last year to this year, and what I can either eliminate or set boundaries around in the past year that didn't sit right with me.” — Biz Cush Do you make New Year's resolutions? Set intentions? Or dive into the new year figuring it out as you go? No matter how you approach it, the new year can be a good time to reflect on what's working for you and what could be different, on what you would like less of and what you would like more of in your life. If you're thinking along the lines of “less stress” and “better friendships,” you're in luck.

Welcome back! In today's episode, we're diving into a topic that affects us all: stress. I'll share my personal journey of realizing—thanks to my Apple Watch—that I was living in constant fight-or-flight mode. From that wake-up call, I learned powerful ways to calm my body and create a healthier balance. We'll explore the surprising signs of stress that might be flying under your radar and how chronic stress impacts your health long-term. I'll also break down the science of restorative activities and why they're vital for your physical and mental well-being. You'll hear practical tips you can implement today—like breathing exercises, movement, and prioritizing rest—to help you thrive, not just survive. Plus, I'll talk about the concept of toxic resilience, the importance of recovery, and how to recognize the delayed stress response many of us feel after powering through tough times. As always, I'll leave you with encouragement to invest in yourself because your health and strength don't just benefit you—they uplift everyone around you. Let's prioritize rest, embrace balance, and step into the life God has created us for. I'm so excited to coach and encourage you as we tackle stress together. You've got this!
