As we wrap up 2025, this final episode of The Fertility Podcast is a heartfelt reflection on the year we've had and a look ahead to what's coming. I'm joined by Katie Rollings, founder of Fertility Action, for a candid chat about the emotional toll of trying to conceive at this time of year, what has changed in the support landscape, and why we need more trust, better information, and continued compassion in the fertility space.If this time of year feels like a gut punch, you are not alone. Whether you are grieving a loss, recovering from a failed cycle, or quietly carrying the weight of infertility, I hope this episode reminds you that your experience matters and that support is out there.What we discuss in this episode:Why it is okay to feel conflicted or overwhelmed during the festive seasonCreating your own boundaries, traditions, and safe spaces during the holidaysWhat Fertility Action's support groups are hearing most including pregnancy announcements, TTC burnout, relationship issues and intimacy questionsHow the groups are structured (TTC versus positive test and beyond) and why that mattersThe rise in patients feeling confused by medical advice, conflicting information online and social media rabbit holesFertility as both emotional and transactional and how clinics need to do better at meeting patients with empathy and psychological safetyThe importance of honest, regulated medical guidance and why peer support should not replace professional adviceProgress on fertility education and policy change and why 2026 is shaping up to be a big year for advocacyKatie's hopes for empowering patients and reaching earlier stages in the fertility journey through GP education and accessA note on the mental load this season:If you have found yourself thinking “I really thought this would be our year”, you are not alone. That sense of grief, reflection, and uncertainty can be especially heavy during the holidays. But you are allowed to set limits. To say no. To opt out of conversations or events. You are not selfish for protecting your peace.Whether it is preparing a few phrases for difficult family questions, giving yourself permission to decline invites, or joining a support group for the first time, do whatever helps you feel grounded.And if you need a glimmer of hope, plan something just for you. Something small, comforting, or creative such as making a Christmas bauble while you chat with others who get it.Let's keep the conversation going:Follow me on Instagram: @fertilitypoddyEmail your thoughts or guest ideas: natalie@thefertilitypodcast.comLearn more about support groups and resources at fertilityaction.orgSubscribe on your podcast app to stay updated for 2026Leave a review or share this with someone who might need itThank you again for listening this year.

In this episode of Get Scene Unscripted, Jesse Malinowski breaks down the big industry news everyone is talking about: Disney's partnership with OpenAI and the release of Sora — and what it actually means for actors.Instead of feeding fear, Jesse offers a grounded, long-term perspective rooted in history, creativity, and mindset.In this conversation, Jesse covers:What Disney's partnership with OpenAI really involvesWhy AI-generated characters are not the same thing as replacing actorsHow fear and anger shut down creativity — and opportunityWhy actors are not at the “top of the food chain,” and why that mattersThe parallels between AI and past industry shifts like television and CGIA powerful story about someone using AI to finally become an artistWhy curiosity is the only mindset that creates momentumHow assumptions — not facts — derail acting careersWhy most actors don't fail because of technology, but because they stop enjoying the journeyJesse challenges actors to stop clenching their fists and start asking better questions:What's possible now? How can I adapt? How can this serve my creativity instead of killing it?This episode is about choice — fear or curiosity — and why one leads to stagnation while the other leads to opportunity.

227. Will Running Ruin My Knees or Make Them Healthier?

From cardiovascular and cancer mortality to mental health and weight management, the evidence is clear: running is one of the most powerful health tools we have.We discuss:Why running doesn't “wear out” your jointsThe real evidence based reasons why people get osteoarthritisHow little running you actually need for major health benefitsThe link between running, body composition, and metabolic healthMental health impacts: mood, confidence, resilienceWhy challenging the “running is bad for your knees” narrative mattersThe surprising longevity benefits seen in recreational runnersIf you've ever been told to avoid running to “save your knees,” or if you work with runners who fear arthritis, this episode will change the conversation.

In this Hot Topic episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott respond to an Independent article exploring whether undiagnosed ADHD increases the likelihood of young people going missing — and why headlines like this often oversimplify a much deeper issue. Jordan shares raw, personal stories of repeatedly running away as a child and how abuse, zero support, and misinterpretation shaped his behaviour — not ADHD itself. Simon unpacks why articles tend to blame neurodivergence rather than the environmental failures, lack of safeguarding, and lack of understanding that actually create crisis responses.Together, they discuss:Why “ADHD made me run away” is an oversimplificationHow unsupported neurodivergent kids end up in crisisSensationalist headlines vs. lived realityThe role of schools, police, and mental health servicesHow mislabelling kids as “naughty” shapes lifelong self-worthWhy early identification and whole-profile neurodivergent understanding mattersThe urgent need for empathy-driven support systemsThis is a validating and eye-opening conversation for anyone who grew up misunderstood — and for anyone working with vulnerable neurodivergent young people today.Our Sponsors:

In this compelling episode of Book Spectrum, host Chris Cordani welcomes Dinesh Danny, a parent, researcher, and author whose groundbreaking book AUTISM CAUSES UNVEILED challenges the conventional wisdom surrounding the rise in autism diagnoses. Through personal experience, medical records, and extensive research, Dinesh makes the case that a hidden traumatic brain injury at birth—often connected to induced labor and excessive contractions caused by Pitocin—may be the most overlooked factor fueling the autism epidemic. S7 E04 - Dinsesh Dav_otter_ai The conversation explores the science, the controversy, and the barriers that prevent open discussion, including medical suppression, legal obstacles, and social-media censorship. Dinesh also explains how MRI findings in his own son led him to uncover what he believes is the true cause at the heart of most modern autism cases. In this episode, Chris and Dinesh discuss:Why autism diagnoses have surged over the past two generationsMRI evidence of white-matter brain injury and what it revealsHow labor induction practices have changed since the 1980s—and why that mattersThe risks associated with Pitocin and why its warning labels are often ignoredWhy genetics alone cannot explain the current autism ratesThe four “causation tracks” outlined in AUTISM CAUSES UNVEILEDWhy doctors are limited in what they can publicly say about autism causationHow legal precedent blocks many families from pursuing malpractice casesThe mission behind Autism PI, a parent-driven initiative collecting birth data nationwideDinesh's work shines a light on a topic many families sense instinctively but rarely hear acknowledged: that the birth process itself may hold the key to understanding—and ultimately reducing—the autism epidemic.

Send us a textMost people donate because they want to help. Few ever find out what actually happens to their money. Philanthropy has a trust problem. Nonprofits have a transparency problem. Donors want clarity but rarely get it. And donor-advised funds have become a quiet holding place for billions of untapped charitable capital.After fifteen years working inside philanthropy, Sarah Angello could not ignore the friction anymore. She saw the outdated systems. She saw the lost potential. She saw how giving had become complicated when it should feel meaningful.So she left a stable career, stepped into tech, and cofounded Daffodil, a fintech platform designed to rebuild trust in the nonprofit sector by making charitable giving transparent, simple, and accessible.In this conversation, Sarah explains the gap no one was addressing, how donor-advised funds actually work, why impact reporting is broken, and how she is solving a systemic problem with zero-burden, real-time data. She opens up about raising capital as a woman, choosing cofounders, navigating risk, and the lesson that shaped her leadership: almost everything is fixable.If you have ever given to a nonprofit, wondered where your money went, or thought about starting something meaningful, this episode will change the way you see philanthropy and the business behind it.Chapters this episode explores:The moment Sarah realized philanthropy needed a complete resetWhy donor-advised funds hold more than 250 billion dollars that rarely reaches nonprofitsWhat the GoFundMe controversy revealed about trust in the sectorHow Daffodil built a system to deliver real-time impact reporting with zero burden on nonprofitsWhy transparency is the next frontier in charitable givingWhat she learned moving from nonprofit bureaucracy to tech speedHow she chose her cofounders and why their history mattersThe reality of raising money as a woman in a male-dominated funding environmentWhy she believes fear of being copied is fear of weak executionThe early mistake that taught her that almost everything is fixableKey lessons:Transparency is not optional; it is the foundation of impactGood ideas are everywhere; execution is the differentiatorDonors do not stop giving because they lack generosity but because they lack visibilityFounders should build in public, not hide in fearCareers are long, and mistakes rarely ruin themContactWebsite: www.getdaffodil.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/getdaffodil/ Email: sarah@getdaffodil.com--- Subscribe and ReviewIf you loved this episode, drop us a review, share it with a badass woman in your life, and subscribe to Badass Women in Business wherever you get your podcasts.

In this Geek Freaks Headlines episode, we break down the news that Sony is bringing Helldivers to the big screen. The film has locked in director Justin Lin, known for his work on the Fast and Furious franchise and Star Trek, signaling that Sony is treating this adaptation as a major project.We also talk about writer Gary Dauberman, whose horror background on Annabelle, Salem's Lot, and the upcoming Until Dawn adaptation suggests Helldivers could lean into intense action with a sharp edge. Beyond the basics, the episode focuses on what really matters to fans: will the movie keep the tongue in cheek propaganda, “for democracy” energy, and chaotic bug blasting that makes the game so beloved, or will it turn into another generic action flick.To wrap up, we zoom out and place Helldivers in the bigger wave of Sony game adaptations like The Last of Us, God of War, Uncharted, and Horizon Zero Dawn, and what this move says about how seriously studios are taking video game stories right now.00:00 – Helldivers movie announcementQuick breakdown of Sony's plan to adapt Helldivers into a feature film.00:16 – Director and writer revealedJustin Lin's involvement and Gary Dauberman's horror resume.00:33 – Why the Helldivers tone mattersThe importance of satire, propaganda vibes, and “for democracy” chaos.00:49 – Sony's growing universe of game adaptationsHow Helldivers fits alongside The Last of Us, God of War, Uncharted, and Horizon Zero Dawn.Sony is developing a Helldivers movie, signaling more confidence in video game adaptations.Justin Lin is set to direct, bringing big action experience from Fast and Furious and Star Trek.Writer Gary Dauberman comes from a strong horror background, which could give Helldivers a sharp, intense tone.The heart of Helldivers is its satire and over the top propaganda style, not just “big guns and big bugs.”Fans are hoping the movie preserves the game's humor, teamwork chaos, and “for democracy” identity.Helldivers joins a growing list of PlayStation adaptations that includes The Last of Us, God of War, Uncharted, and Horizon Zero Dawn.“Hopefully they can keep that satire. To me, it is what makes the game so fun to play around with.”“If it is just boiled down to big guns and big bugs, then we are losing what makes Helldivers special.”“As Sony is making this big move into TV and movies, Helldivers could actually be something worth watching.”Enjoyed this breakdown of the Helldivers movie news?Subscribe to Geek Freaks Headlines so you never miss a quick update on the biggest stories in geek culture.Leave a rating and review to help more geeks find the show.Share this episode with your squad and tag it with #GeekFreaksHeadlines.All news discussed in this episode comes from:GeekFreaksPodcast.comVisit: GeekFreaksPodcast.comStay connected with Geek Freaks across social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thegeekfreakspodcastThreads: https://www.threads.net/@geekfreakspodcastTwitter: https://twitter.com/geekfreakspodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/geekfreakspodcast/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcastHave a question about Helldivers, game adaptations, or a headline you want us to cover next?Send your questions and topic requests to us on social or through GeekFreaksPodcast.com, and we might feature you in a future episode of Geek Freaks Headlines.Timestamps and TopicsKey TakeawaysMemorable QuotesCall to ActionLinks and ResourcesFollow UsListener Questions

In this solo episode, Dee Kei thinks out loud about what keeps creatives going when outcomes are uncertain. He unpacks a hard truth many avoid: results are not guaranteed, and tying your identity to them creates desperation and bad decisions. Instead, build a career around love of the craft, alignment, and service to the song. Along the way, DK contrasts winning vs loving the game through Michael Jordan and Shohei Ohtani, explores ikigai and Japanese craftsmanship, pokes holes in hustle without purpose, and explains why the illusion of control shows up in studio superstitions. The practical takeaway is simple and difficult at once: enjoy the work, separate from the outcome, and your best mixes follow.What you will learnHow detaching from results reduces fear and improves decisionsWhen grit helps and when to keep your head down and take the hitWhy “use your ears” remains the only answer that mattersThe role of ritual and superstition in performance psychologyWhy craft comes first and money follows as a consequence SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LU⁠HIRE JAMES⁠Find Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

In this episode, JoLi breaks down a chance encounter with a "deviant thinker" who thought he was alone, and delivers the truth about why feeling different isn't isolation, it's recognition. From past lives to the illusion of aging, this conversation goes deep into the nature of reality, purpose, and why some of us are wired to question everything.If you've ever felt like you don't belong, like something's fundamentally off about this world, or like you're the only one who sees through the simulation, this episode is your confirmation that you're not broken. You're a flower among spikes.

Worried that giving the same talk more than once would box you in - or worse, bore you to tears?I've been there. And if you're a builder-of-slides-at-heart like me, the idea of sticking to one signature talk can feel a little… constraining.But here's the truth: the talk you give again (and again and again) is the one that becomes unforgettable - for you and your audience.In this episode, I'm joined by Thought Leader Academy graduate Kelly Mallery, who proves exactly that. Kelly works in the continuous improvement and lean space, and she discovered that honing one powerful talk didn't limit her creativity, it amplified it.

What if the biggest threat to your franchise system isn't sales, development, or operations but the financial foundation you're quietly ignoring?In this episode, we sit down with the franchise finance authority, Ron Feldman, a 30-year veteran who has advised, funded, and evaluated many franchise brands through ApplePie Capital, FRANdata, and Franchise America Finance. Ron pulls back the curtain on the one thing that separates healthy, scalable brands from the ones that stall out: franchisee profitability and why ignoring it is the fastest path to failure.From the early days of the Goddard School to building lending platforms that have deployed more than $3 billion to franchisees, Ron shares what lenders really look for, why item 19s often fall short, and how emerging franchisors accidentally sabotage their own growth. He breaks down why unit-level economics matter more than any development goal, how to avoid becoming a “churn and burn” brand, and what it takes to become an exceptional franchise system in the eyes of lenders, franchisees, and buyers.Whether you're a founder trying to grow responsibly, a franchisor preparing for scale, or a leader committed to better financial discipline across your system, this episode is a masterclass in doing franchising the right way with clarity, transparency, and profitability at the core.Connect with Ron:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronaldafeldman/Email - Ron@franchisestrategysolutions.comApplePie Capital Contact - Jamie@applepiecapitall.comEpisode Highlights:Ron's early days as a Goddard School franchiseeThe mentor who shaped his entire franchising philosophyWhy franchisee profitability is the #1 indicator of system healthThe biggest mistakes emerging franchisors makeHow lenders actually evaluate an FDDWhy item 19 rarely shows the full storyWhat makes a brand “exceptional” in the eyes of lendersWhy founders need more capital than they thinkThe dangers of undercapitalization (for franchisors + franchisees)The responsible franchising movement and why it mattersThe power of benchmarking, data, and the right tech stackAccelerating time from signed to open and why most brands struggleWhen franchisors should buy back locations to protect validationConnect with Tracy Personal LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-panase/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale JBF Franchise System - https://jbfsalefranchise.com/ Email: podcast@jbfsale.com Connect with Shannon Personal LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonwilburn/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale Website - https://shineexecutivecoaching.com/ Email - shannon@shineexecutivecoaching.com

In this episode, you'll discover:Why everything you need for healing is already inside youHow heart intelligence differs from mental understanding and why it mattersThe two-minute breathwork practice that brings you back to centerWhy do we spend thousands of dollars on healing modalities when the most powerful tool we have is free and already inside us?I've been that person. The one collecting certifications and techniques like they're going to unlock some secret level of consciousness. I've paid for energy healings, bought the crystals, traveled to the retreats. And I'm not saying those things don't have value. Some of them genuinely changed my life. But somewhere along the way, I realized I was outsourcing my power. I was looking for someone else to tell me I was doing it right instead of trusting what I already knew. That's the trap so many of us fall into. We think spirituality is supposed to be complicated. That if we're not studying ancient texts or learning complex breathwork patterns, we're not serious enough. We're not evolved enough.But what if the whole point is to come back to simple? What if all the tools and teachers and techniques are just different roads leading us back to the same truth? Everything we're looking for is already here. In our breath. In our awareness. In the intelligence of our own bodies.Today our guest is Kara Goodwin, host of the Soul Elevation Podcast and meditation teacher who helps people reconnect with their inner wisdom. She's spent years studying energy healing and consciousness, and her message is refreshingly simple.Links from the episode:Show Notes: mindlove.com/429Join the Mind Love Collective here: https://mindlove.com/joinSign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes to wake up inspiredSupport Mind Love SponsorsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of the Business Builder Series, Staci explores a common challenge many small business owners face as they grow: the desire to be liked by their team so deeply that it gets in the way of actual leadership. She breaks down what it looks like to step into the role of a true coach, why clarity matters more than being the “nice boss,” and how avoiding discomfort can quietly limit a business's growth.Key topics covered:Why early hires often feel like family and how that impacts leadershipThe difference between kindness and people-pleasingHow lack of clarity, expectations, and boundaries can sabotage a company's ability to scaleWhat it means to lead from the “coach's view” and see the full pictureKey traits of strong leadership: direct communication, accountability, and empathy with boundariesWhy respect comes before likability, and why that order mattersThe risks of avoiding tough conversations or feedback to keep everyone comfortableChallenge:Listeners are encouraged to identify one area where their desire to be liked is causing them to avoid leadership. They should write down the tough conversation, feedback, or boundary they've been avoiding, and note what could become possible if they addressed it.Staci's Links:Instagram.

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling a lot more optimistic than I was a week ago. In spite of daily news that can feel pretty daunting, I think we just got a lot of new information out of this past week's elections that give us a ton of reasons for optimism. And I want to share those with you.A number of my clients have said to me in the last few days, give us a reason for optimism. How are you feeling about this? And each time I've had this conversation, I've gotten clearer about exactly what the big things were that represented major shifts.  I believe these shifts are reasons to get really excited about the rising power of a vast majority of people in this country who do not agree with what is happening. Who feel very strongly about it, and who are willing to go to the ballot box and make their voices heard. This election was the first opportunity for voters to weigh in on things since the 2024 elections. And boy did they have a lot to say. In this episode, we share:What the pollsters missed that made a huge differenceThe two most significant factors that drove voters' shift to blueThe most important thing that didn't happen, and why it mattersThe two most critical groups of voters who shifted strongly in our favor, and whyWhy the right's attempts at additional gerrymandering may backfire on themThe very surprising data point that tells us how many strong allies we haveWhat Nonprofit leaders can do to help fight voter suppression and ensure all eligible clients can make their voices heard in the next elections Links:Episode 54 – How to Help the People You Serve Make Their Voices Heard at the Ballot BoxEpisode 62 – How Your Nonprofit can Help Your Clients Register to Vote in the 2024 ElectionsEpisode 66 – How to Help Your Clients Make Sure Their Vote CountsHelp spread the word!

From PMI myths to hard credit pull fears, this listener Q&A episode breaks down the most common first-time homebuyer questions with real math and no fluff. Learn the right order of operations, how to shop for your mortgage, and when to start talking to a lender — all straight from the expert trusted by thousands of new homeowners.This episode dives into 10 of the most frequent and misunderstood questions first-time buyers ask when preparing to purchase a home.

Have you ever ordered something online that looked perfect in the description, only to be completely disappointed when it arrived? Or struggled to explain to a sales associate exactly what you're looking for? Today, I'm sharing why building your style vocabulary is one of the most practical things you can do to make shopping easier, faster, and so much more successful.After 25 years of dressing women, I've seen how knowing the right words transforms the entire style experience. When you can name what you're looking for—whether it's a split v-neck blouse or palazzo pants—you stop wasting time, money, and mental energy on clothes that don't work. This episode breaks down why fluency in fashion terminology isn't about memorizing a dictionary—it's about empowering yourself to get the wardrobe you actually want.In this episode, you'll discover:The three compelling reasons why style vocabulary mattersThe essential categories of style terms that cover everythingMy favorite "vocabulary building in the wild" tactics that turn regular shopping trips into effortless learning opportunitiesThe critical difference between just knowing words and knowing how to USE themWhy retailers play fast and loose with definitions—and how to use this knowledge to your advantage I hope this episode helps you see that becoming style-fluent isn't about perfection or knowing every single term out there. It's about giving yourself the tools to communicate what you want, find what you need, and recreate looks that make you feel amazing. Most importantly, you'll spend less time in those frustrating "nothing looks good on me" spirals and more time feeling confident in clothes that truly work for your body and lifestyle. Don't forget to submit your end-of-season style questions here.Full show notes and resources: https://youreverydaystyle.com/ep-223
