Podcasts about Matriarchs

Stephanie Trenchard's multi-disciplinary creative process includes painting and poetry along with cast glass. With a focus on biographical stories of how women artists have navigated careers and partnerships, motherhood and making a living while still focusing on their creative practice, the work also discusses the price the art has to pay in this grand juggling act. The artist prioritizes the actual experience of the work, making and seeing it, over the classification of genre or ownership of an idea.  Says Trenchard: “I create my own visual vocabulary in storytelling. Using these totems, I tell stories about the artistic experience and the ensuing personal relationships usually based on true stories of artists from history. The subject of these narratives is often revealed in the title of the piece, but it is not necessary that the viewer be familiar with the subject in order to understand the concept because the metaphors are universal to the human condition.” Her work also involves using art as a way to communicate local activism as seen in her project About Sturgeon Bay. Born in Champaign, Illinois, in 1962, Trenchard earned her BFA in painting from Illinois State University in 1984. Subsequently, she and glass artist husband Jeremy Popelka relocated to San Francisco, California, where Trenchard designed textile patterns, licensed and sold under a private label. Upon returning to Sturgeon Bay Wisconsin in 1997, the couple built a hot shop and gallery that they share to this day. They assist each other with work as well as teaching projects, such as their recent classes in Thailand. As she assisted Popelka, Trenchard began to see glass casting as a means of translating textile patterns and other imagery to glass. The discovery of Paradise Paints allowed her to combine painting skills with glass art in the development of her award-winning body of work. Trenchard has developed a unique method of creating art using glass combined with paint. She first creates fully realized figures or objects in clear glass, which are then painted with high-fire enamels that are mixed and blended just as with oil or acrylic paints. Next, these three-dimensional objects or figures are submerged into molten glass encased in cubes and rectangles of clear sand cast glass. Each cube or rectangle is created so that they can be fitted tightly next to one another or on top, making a totem like structure. Coldworking is required to achieve the perfect fit. She states: “I have been following my own interests and curiosities concerning how these women have navigated their careers and artistic practices. I represent these ideas in glass through the details that speak to me, particularly the ephemera of material culture, furniture and clothing that encapsulate their era and class. I also rely on posture and facial expression to reveal the nature of the subject as I intuit it.” In addition to teaching in her studio, Trenchard has taught workshops at Pratt Fine Art Center, University of Wisconsin, The Studio at the Corning Museum of Glass, The Bergstrom Mahler Museum of Glass and others. She was a lecturer at the Glass Art Society Conference, Murano, Italy, and established the first hot glass school in Southeast Asia, at Bangkok Glass, Thailand. Recent exhibitions include: Beyond Giving, Inspiring Change, Singapore Art Week, Singapore; Matriarchs of Mastery, Habatat Gallery, Detroit, Michigan; A Creative Place, Trout Museum, Wisconsin; and Beyond the Ceiling – Women of Studio Glass, Sarasota, Florida, Habatat Invitational, Michigan. Awards include Trenchard's 2025 Featured Poet award, presented by After Hours Journal, Chicago; 2023, 2024 Prize Winner at Habatat International Exhibition; and the 2020 AACG Wisconsin Artist Series at Bergstrom-Mahler Museum of Glass. Says Trenchard: “Telling stories is what cultures do to understand the history and identities of the people. The small details in my work open up a conversation about the personal experiences of women in the arts as interpreted through history.”  

In this episode, we sit down with Jessie Fischbein, author of 'Infertility in the Bible: How the Matriarchs Changed Their Fate; How You Can Too.' Jessie's book stands out for its informal, accessible style and its ability to resonate with readers beyond just Jewish or theistic audiences. We discuss what inspired her to write it and how readers struggling with infertility have responded. We also dive into her rational approach to prayer, addressing a common struggle—why pray if God is unchanging? Jessie clarifies what prayer truly is and how it differs from common misconceptions. Exploring biblical narratives, we examine how emotions played a critical role in fertility, from Leah and Rachel's sibling rivalry to Hannah's prayers. Jessie shares insights on the connection between emotions, prayer, and transformation, offering lessons that couples facing infertility can apply in their own lives. Finally, we discuss divine intervention and personal agency. Jessie unpacks the Torah's view on providence and how individuals can actively work on themselves to reshape their path. Don't miss this thought-provoking conversation!---• Bio: Whenever Jessie Fischbein visits a new community, she hopes she will get the privilege to learn Torah with them. Jessie taught high school for over twenty years in yeshiva day schools, and she homeschools her children, giving her a unique perspective on Jewish education and learning disabilities. She is the author of the book Infertility in the Bible, about how our Matriarchs handled their challenges and what that means for us, and the book Scandals in the Bible, about some of the most challenging and difficult to understand stories in Tanach. Jessie believes that the Torah's wisdom is eternally relevant and fun to learn and strives to share that wherever she goes.---• Welcome to JUDAISM DEMYSTIFIED: A PODCAST FOR THE PERPLEXED | Co-hosted by Benjy & Benzi | Thank you to...Super Patron: Jordan Karmily, Platinum Patron: Craig Gordon, Rod Ilian, Gold Patrons: Dovidchai Abramchayev, Lazer Cohen, Travis Krueger, Vasili Volkoff, Vasya, Silver Patrons: Ellen Fleischer, Daniel Maksumov, Rabbi Pinny Rosenthal, Fred & Antonio, Jeffrey Wasserman, and Jacob Winston!

If any season is movie-watching season, it's now. When we knew we wanted to make a Christmas movie-focused episode, 2008's A Christmas Tale and 2005's The Family Stone sprang to mind right away: These are matriarch-centric Christmas movies that take the whole mom-at-Christmastime thing to the Nth degree. Each in their own way, they put the intense time we spend gathered together with our families of origin at the holidays under a microscope. So, what do The Family Stone and A Christmas Tale have in common? Just about everything, except that one is American and has Dermot Mulroney at his hottest(?) and the other is extremely French and involves a LOT of people smoking cigarettes non-stop. We get dig under the surface of these two films — both of which are centered around big families gathered at the holidays around powerful, complicated matriarchs — with our (new) friends Andie and Sabrina of the Pop Culture Moms podcast.Links: * A Christmas Tale* The Family Stone* Pop Culture Moms on Apple Podcasts, Instagram, and Spotify This is a public episode.

Gather community member Callina Anderson teaches on reimagining Sarah in her full humanity.

Hebron is one of the most significant cities in Israel, Biblically, in the recent modern history of Israel, and today. Abraham purchased a cave there in which to bury Sarah, which became the family burial plot for the Patriarchs and Matriarchs. In many ways, the history of Hebron foreshadows events in Israel's present, and it's future is uniquely tied into the future of Israel on the whole.

Darren Croft studies one of the ocean's most charismatic and spectacular animals – the killer whale. Orca are probably best known for their predatory behaviour: ganging up to catch hapless seals or attack other whales. But for the last fifteen years, Darren Croft's focus has been on a gentler aspect of killer whale existence: their family and reproductive lives . Killer whales live in multi-generational family groups. Each family is led by an old matriarch, often well into her 80s. The rest of the group are her daughters and sons, and grand-children. Especially intriguing to Darren is that female orca go through something like the menopause - an extremely rare phenomenon in the animal kingdom, only documented in just five species of toothed whales and of course in humans. Halting female reproduction in midlife is an evolutionary mystery, but it is one which Darren Croft argues can be explained by studying killer whales. Darren is Professor of Animal Behaviour at the University of Exeter. He talks to Jim Al-Kalili about his research on killer whales, his previous work revealing sophisticated social behaviour in fish, his life on the farm, and the downsides and upsides of being dyslexic.Presented by Jim Al-Khalili Produced by Andrew Luck-Baker

Traditionally women often take on much of the responsibility for practical and emotional support for a family as well as passing on family knowledge and traditions. But is the role still relevant? Datshiane Navanayagam talks to women from Canada and the UK about being a modern matriarch.All her life, Helen Knott has looked to the strong women in her indigenous community for guidance, absorbed their stories and admired their independence. When her mother and grandmother died she tried to step into the roles they'd held in community. Her book Becoming a Matriarch is a love letter to the eldest daughters of families who often carry invisible responsibilities.Tanika Gupta is an award-winning playwright British playwright whose work celebrates her Bengali culture and often challenges gender and race stereotypes. She has worked across theatre, television, radio and film. Her latest play A Tupperware Of Ashes is about a restaurateur with dementia and the impact on her three children of looking after her. Tanika wrote the play after her own mother died from cancer. It will be screened internationally by the National Theatre later this year.

Today's poem is We Never Stop Talking About Our Mothers by Diannely Antigua. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “I treasure the elder women in my life for their conscious, yet easy-going transference of soul-nourishing values. Matriarchs mediated conflicts among family members. They put into play care and cohesion. They lovingly told stories, recalled important family members, and carried on cultural traditions, passed down like charms.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

Barbara Campbell Thomas had a long-established painting practice when, about a decade ago, her mother bought her a sewing machine. Little did she know, but that gift provided her the perfect missing piece to her creative practice.What draws me to Barbara's work is the balance between tautness and texture. Her stretched and pieced canvas quilt works pushes back an “all or nothing” perspective on genre. Her work is naturally generative and generous, creating expanses for so much.In this SEAMSIDE conversation, Barbara and I explore ① the value of a regular sketchbook practice (even if you don't draw) ② what even is abstraction ③ how you can detect your matriarchs at work→ Get your free trial to the QUILTY NOOK → Claim your free copy of 10 THINGS I WISH I KNEW BEFORE I STARTED QUILTING → See images and more at the EPISODE WEBSITE → Nominate a GUEST for SEAMSIDE → Follow Zak on INSTAGRAM

Years ago, Karla Tatiana Vasquez tried to search up a recipe for one of her favorite Salvadoran dishes, Salpicón Salvadoreño. The scarce results not only disappointed Vasquez, but created a new mission: to collect and preserve the recipes of the Salvadoran diaspora along with the stories of the women who've been passing them down for generations. In today's episode, NPR's A Martinez visits Vasquez's kitchen to discuss The SalviSoul Cookbook and the relationship between food, migration and trauma.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

התוכן 1) השיעור ברמב"ם בימים אלו הוא ב"הלכות נחלות". ולכאו' מהי ההוראה מלימוד דיני ירושה כעת, כאשר משיח בא "נאו", שאז יחיו כולם חיים נצחיים?! אלא המדובר הוא על ירושה רוחנית שיורשים מהאבות והאמהות של כלל ישראל – אברהם יצחק ויעקב, שרה רבקה רחל ולאה! כל ילד/ה יהודי/ה צריכים לדעת שניתנה להם "ירושה" ו"נחלה" הכי יקרה – "תורה צוה לנו משה מורשה קהלת יעקב", ובמילא עליהם לשמור ולהשתמש ב"ירושה" זו באופן המתאים. 2) השיעור ברמב"ם בימים אלו הוא ב"הלכות נחלות". ביאור הענין ד"נחלה" בעבודת האדם: בכ"א מישראל ישנם ג' הענינים ד"אשרנו מה טוב חלקנו .. גורלנו .. ירושתנו". "ירושה" קאי על האהבה ויראה שיש לכאו"א בירושה מהאבות. אמנם, מכיון ש"ירושה" הוא דבר הבא ממילא, ה"ז באופן ד"נהמא דכיסופא", ולכן צ"ל גם ענין העבודה בכח עצמו: "חלק" – העבודה בכחות פנימיים, ו"גורל" – העבדוה בכחות המקיפים. והיינו, שה"ירושה" שכאו"א מישראל "יורש הכל", תחדור בכל מציאותו. 1) משיחת יום ד' פ' תשא, י"ב אדר ה'תשמ"ה, להתלמידים ולהתלמידות, "צבאות השם" שיחיו 2) משיחת תענית אסתר ה'תשמ"ה ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=28-02-2024 Synopsis (1) In today's Rambam we learn about the laws of inheritance; seemingly, what lesson can we derive from the laws of inheritance nowadays, if Moshiach is coming now, and we will all live forever? But the point is the spiritual inheritance passed down from the Patriarchs and Matriarchs, Avraham, Yitzchak, and Yaakov, and Sarah, Rivkah, Rachel, and Leah. Every Jewish boy and girl should know that they have been given the most precious “inheritance” and “heritage”: “The Torah that Moshe commanded us is the inheritance of the congregation of Yaakov,” and it must be cherished and used properly. (2) The idea of an “inheritance” in Divine service: Every Jew has three aspects: “We are fortunate, how goodly is our portion…our lot…our inheritance.” “Inheritance” refers to the love and fear every Jew inherits from the Patriarchs. However, since an inheritance comes automatically and without effort on the part of the heir, it is like “bread of shame”; therefore, one's personal effort is also required, namely, “our portion” (the service with the inner faculties) and “our lot” (the service with the encompassing faculties). That is, the “inheritance” every Jew has, should permeate their entire being (“inheriting everything”).(1) Excerpt from sichah of Wednesday, Parashas Ki Sisa, 12 Adar 5745, to members of Tzivos Hashem.

Ever wondered why Ruth was blessed with the matriarchs, Rachel, Leah and Tamar? Well, prepare to have your curiosity satisfied! In our latest deep dive into biblical history on 'Our Ancient Future Story,' we unravel the curious blessing of Ruth with the matriarchs. This episode takes us on a fascinating journey through the rich tapestry of scripture where we dissect the cultural, historical, geographical, and sociological impacts of this blessing. What makes this blessing so compelling is its intricate connections with the narratives of Rachel, Leah, and Tamar, and how it subtly hints at future events. It's not all about blessings though, we also encounter discord and determination, which hints at the complexity of these matriarch's lives. By weaving together these disparate, tantalizing threads we not only understand Ruth's blessing but also how it reverberated through Israel's vibrant history. This fascinating exploration serves as a perfect prelude to our upcoming examination of Psalms 23, where we uncover the life of David, the outcast shepherd who became a king. So, don't wait, join us on this captivating journey into the past and discover how our ancient history shapes our present. I promise you, this is one journey you don't want to miss!Support the show

What does it mean to bring Indigeneity into colonial spaces, especially into the government? Michelle Friesen, City Councilor for the City of Whitehorse, knows a thing or two about it. In October 2021 she was elected as the first Indigenous woman to serve on Whitehorse City Council – the first Indigenous person to sit in City Council in 30 years. Early this year, Michelle and her son, Theo, were in the media after she faced complaints by fellow city council members to stop bringing her son to meetings, an act that is rooted in her Indigeneity.   Michelle joins Shayla to look at the cultural and historical context of Matriarchy and motherhood in places of decision making and how she views her role, and the role of Matriarchs-in-the-making, in colonial governing institutions. Matriarch Movement is created and hosted by Shayla Oulette Stonechild and produced by Kattie Laur. Theme music is "Sisters" by Wolf Saga, Chippewa Travellers and David R. Maracle.

Why the strange anthropormism that Hashem was "crazy in love" with the Patriarchs and Matriarchs?

Why learn Torah? Why read about Patriarchs and Matriarchs, biblical failures and triumphs, God's anger and delight? What could possibly draw a modern person into its ancient words? Dr. Avivah Gottlieb Zornberg — a renowned biblical scholar who weaves Midrash, biblical commentaries, Hasidic thinkers, and psychoanalysts, literary giants, and more — explores such questions with us. When a soul encounters God's word in the text, something is experienced. The narratives, stories, and lessons in the Torah are meant to touch us—to shatter, comfort, awaken us to the full depths of life. If you are seeking a new mode of connecting to religious texts, religious living, and God, then you will find endless spiritual enrichment from Dr. Zornberg's resonant words.
