Are you constantly pouring your energy into everything and everyone, yet ending the day feeling completely wiped out? In this episode, Whitney sits down with Dr. Diana Hill, author of Wise Effort: How to Focus Your Genius Energy on What Matters Most, to explore what it really means to spend your energy in ways that align with who you are. Dr. Hill introduces the idea of “wise effort,” a mindful approach to work, motherhood, and personal growth that helps you focus on what truly matters rather than simply doing more. She explains how to identify and direct your “genius energy”—the natural strengths that help you thrive when used wisely but can lead to exhaustion when misused. Whitney and Dr. Hill also discuss The Nightmare Review, a self-reflective practice that reveals what you value most by imagining the story you don't want to live. Through this conversation, you'll learn how to move from overdoing to intentional action, reconnect with your body's signals, and bring vitality and joy back to your days. If you've been feeling overextended, uninspired, or out of alignment, this episode will help you reclaim your energy and live with more clarity, curiosity, and ease. Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: Wise effort vs. unwise effort Understanding genius energy When your genius can become a problem The positives and negatives of being a planner What it looks like to treat ourselves with wise action The “Nightmare Review” practice How environment can impact wise effort “One Eye In, One Eye Out” practice Reflection question to ponder: If there's no problem to be solved, what's left?

In this episode, Tanya and Sabrina explore what it means to embody Earth energy—the qualities that keep us steady, grounded, and dependable when life gets chaotic.Building on last week's episode about Air (and the unskillful energy of lying), Tanya and Sabrina unpack how Earth brings structure, trust, and stability back into our relationships—especially between moms and teens. They share a real-life moment where trust was tested and how grounding practices, honesty, and consistency helped rebuild it.Tanya explains how Earth represents the physical world, structure, and stability—and how too much of it can make us rigid, while too little leaves us scattered. Sabrina shares her take on what it feels like when things get too “earthy” (stubbornness, guilt, or control), and how we can soften that energy with awareness and compassion.Together, they reflect on how Earth energy helps us navigate “the juggle” of modern family life—work, school, friendships, and responsibilities—with more patience, steadiness, and connection.Timestamps / Chapters00:00 – Introduction: Welcome to The Juggle Is Real00:18 – Element Recap: From Air (Lies) to Earth (Truth & Trust)01:00 – What Is the Earth Element?

Ever feel like your body is waving a white flag while your to-do list keeps growing? Today's guest, health coach Amber Swift, shares her journey from ministry heartache and health crisis to hope, healing, and helping other overwhelmed moms find their way back to thriving. Amber's wisdom comes from walking through the fire herself. After years of saying "yes" to everything in ministry, raising five kids, and pouring herself out for others, her body said STOP. A trendy detox layered on top of hidden stress led to early-onset menopause, severe fatigue, sleepless nights, and so much more. That breaking point became her turning point. ✨ Join Amber and me for this fun, honest, and hope-filled conversation. We talk about: ✅ The moment God met young Amber in her bedroom and became the Father she desperately needed ✅ Why the "oxygen mask principle" isn't selfish—it's survival (and biblical!) ✅ How a perfect storm can take you out. ✅ Daily Practices that can help ground you. ✅ Why "one man's food is another man's poison" and how to find YOUR path to health If you're an overwhelmed mom who's been running on empty, feeling trapped in a season you didn't choose, or wondering if this exhaustion is just "the new normal"—this episode is your permission slip to stop settling and start taking the next step. Don't give up. Don't just stay there. This is NOT God's best for you.

This week on Mom Group Chat, we're getting real about one of the most common — yet least talked about — parts of motherhood: loneliness. Motherhood has a way of filling your heart while emptying your social cup, and sometimes the contrast between being never alone yet feeling deeply lonely is… a lot.In this episode, we open up about: The first moments we realized motherhood can feel isolating Why losing spontaneity (and free time) can shrink your world before you even notice The shift from “I'm fine” to actually admitting we need connection How we're filling our cups again — friendships, hobbies, community, and asking for help The hard truth that if we want a “village,” we also have to be a villager What genuine support looks like in the season of young kids Ways to reconnect with YOURSELF (because that counts as connection too)If you've ever felt disconnected from the world you used to be part of — or from pieces of yourself — this one will make you feel seen, understood, and a little less alone. Come sit with us, laugh with us, and exhale with us. We're rebuilding the village together.Keep up with the Moms and join the conversation on our socials:

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/advances-in-type-1-diabetes-science-and-tech/ This article is part of “Innovations In: Type 1 Diabetes,” an editorially independent special report that was produced with financial support from Vertex. XX More evidence linking COVID 19 to type 1 diabetes.. but still exactly why is a mystery. During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an unexpected increase in the number of cases of type 1 diabetes in Sweden, particularly among children under 5 and young adult men. The infection accelerated the onset of diabetes among children between the ages of 5 and 9. The researchers looked at data from a 17-year period on the incidence of type 1 diabetes among all people under the age of 30 in Sweden. In addition, they compared the risk of developing diabetes among 720,000 individuals with positive COVID-19 tests against a control group of 3.5 million people. The findings are published in the journal Diabetologia. The number of diabetes cases increased by 12% in 2021 and 9% in 2022 compared with previous years. In 2023, the number of cases was back to a normal level. Despite this, the researchers cannot distinguish a clear connection between COVID-19 infection and diabetes, except for children between 5 and 9 years old. They had an increased risk of type 1 diabetes about one month after a COVID-19 infection even though their total risk did not increase. "However, it's clear that the COVID-19 vaccine can be ruled out as a cause of the increase in diabetes cases. The recommendation for the age group where we saw the strongest increase was not to get vaccinated. In addition, other studies on adults have shown that vaccination reduces the risk of developing type 1 diabetes after a COVID infection." https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-diabetes-young-people-pandemic.html XX A new gene therapy approach aimed at protecting people with type 1 diabetes from developing diabetic kidney disease—a serious and common complication of the condition, has shown promising results in a University of Bristol study. Findings from this new study, published in Molecular Therapy, demonstrated a 64% reduction in a damage indicator for kidney disease, paving the way for a potential new treatment. The study, explored the potential of delivering a protein called VEGF-C directly into kidney cells. Previous studies have shown VEGFC could protect against kidney disease as it helps keep blood vessels in the kidney filter healthy, repairing early signs of diabetes-related kidney damage. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-gene-therapy-kidney-disease-diabetes.html XX The FDA has agreed to consider Afrezza inhaled insulin for children and teens. The company said in August that it submitted a supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Afrezza in the pediatric population and it's been assigned a decision deadline date of the end of May, 2026. Afrezza first recieved FDA approval for adults (age 18 and up) in June 2014 https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/fda-accepts-application-mannkind-inhaled-insulin-kids/ Update on inhaled insulin for kids.. in the open-label, randomized, phase 3 INHALE-1 clinical trial Afrezza demonstrated safe and effective replacement for rapid-acting meal insulin in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D and demonstrates comparable glycemic control to injected rapid-acting insulin. The INHALE-1 clinical trial assessed the safety and efficacy of Afrezza among children and adolescents with T1D, including a total of 230 patients aged 4 to 17 years. Researchers used basal injected insulin and randomly assigned inhaled insulin or rapid-acting analogue for meals, evaluating the change in hemoglobin A1c levels at 26 weeks. After completing 26 weeks of randomly assigned treatment with either Afrezza or rapid-acting insulin injections combined with basal insulin, participants continued receiving the inhaled insulin until week 52 for an extension phase to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Afrezza with continued use.1,2 https://www.pharmacytimes.com/view/inhaled-insulin-demonstrates-comparable-safety-lung-function-and-efficacy-to-injectable-insulin-in-type-1-diabetes XX Eli Lilly released the results of two new Phase 3 trials of an experimental GLP-1 pill that the company says could become a “foundational treatment” for type 2 diabetes. The Indianapolis-based drugmaker plans to submit global regulatory applications for orforglipron in the treatment of type 2 diabetes next year. The company said it will seek approval of the drug as an obesity medication by the end of 2025. Lilly is trying to build on the success of its Mounjaro/Zepbound franchise by offering patients a pill instead of an injection. But the company is trailing behind rival Novo Nordisk in developing an oral alternative, and data released so far has raised some skepticism among investors. A study released in August showed that orforglipron could help patients lose an average of about 12% of their body weight. Wall Street had been expecting more; Lilly's injectable drug Zepbound produced weight loss of as much as 21%, and Novo Nordisk has achieved 15% weight loss percentages for both oral and injectable versions of its Wegovy medication. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/eli-lillys-orforglipron-bests-farxiga-padding-oral-glp-1-case-pair-phase-3-diabetes-wins XX XX UF Health Cancer Center researchers have found a surprising culprit behind common health problems such as obesity, diabetes and fatty liver disease: silent genetic glitches in the blood system that occur naturally as people age. The findings, published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, mean that in the future, simple blood tests could be developed to identify people most at risk early on, helping prevent chronic illnesses and cancer through strategies like diet or lifestyle changes. As people age, stem cells in the bone marrow that produce blood cells gradually accumulate mutations in their DNA. Most mutations don't cause any issues, but sometimes blood stem cells with a mutation can start crowding out their peers. Called clonal hematopoiesis, this condition affects about 10% of older people and is associated with an increased risk of blood cancers like leukemia. It's also linked to a higher risk of obesity and diabetes. But the prevailing thinking was that obesity and related conditions promoted blood cell changes, not the other way around. The new study reverses that. The implications could be far-reaching, particularly as obesity has now overtaken smoking as the most significant and preventable risk factor for cancer. The team is studying how the mutations drive disease. Next, they plan to test how drugs like those commonly used to treat diabetes and new popular weight loss drugs might help reverse or prevent diseases caused by blood cell changes. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-10-hidden-blood-mutations-obesity-diabetes.html XX A new ultra rapid insulin continues to move forward. A phase 3 clinical trial of BioChaperone Lispro (liss-pro) conducted in China found it safe and effective compared with Humalog along with a significant reduction of the rise of blood glucose after a test meal. These results complete and confirm the positive outcomes previously obtained with THDB0206 injection in people with Type 2 Diabetes It combines Adocia's proprietary BioChaperone® technology with insulin lispro, the active ingredient in the standard of care, Humalog® (Eli Lilly). This innovative formulation acts significantly faster https://pharmatimes.com/news/ultra-rapid-insulin-shows-promise-in-phase-3-trial-for-type-1-diabetes/ Poor blood sugar control in adolescent patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) may be associated with a higher risk of neuropathy in adulthood, according to recent research from the University of Michigan.1 The study included children diagnosed with T1D between 1990-1992 who were recruited into the Cognition and Longitudinal Assessment of Risk Factors over 30 Years cohort study in Australia. Investigators collected HbA1c from medical records, and microvascular complications were assessed through self-reports, clinical screenings, retinal photographs, and urinary albumin-creatinine testing.3 A total of 30 children were recruited from the original cohort with a mean diagnosis age of 2.9 years. After an average of 29.7 years (standard deviation [SD]: 3.9 years), 33% of participants (n = 13) developed neuropathy, 63% (n = 19) developed diabetes-related eye disease, and 10% (n = 3) developed neuropathy.3 Mean HbA1c estimates during adolescence (9% [74.9 mmol/mol]; 95% CI, 8.6-9.3 [70.5-78.1]) were substantially higher than childhood (8.2% [66.1 mmol/mol]; 95% CI, 7.8-8.5 [61.7-69.4]; P
We are revisiting one of the most brutal and complex crimes we have ever covered: The Pike County Massacre, also known as the Rhoden Family Murders. Six years ago, we first discussed the shocking event where eight members of the Rhoden family—four adults, three young men, and a teenage boy—were executed at four different homes in rural Ohio on the same night. At the time of our original episode in 2019, the Wagner family had just been arrested. Now, years later, the trials and sentencing of the four members of the Wagner family are complete, and we are bringing you a comprehensive update on the fate of George Wagner IV, Jake Wagner, Angela Wagner, and Billy Wagner. In this update, we detail the chilling motive that led to the execution-style murders: Custody and Obsession: The motive was centered on a heated custody battle over a young child shared by killer Jake Wagner and victim Hanna May Rhoden. The Plea Deals: We discuss the shocking plea deal struck by Jake Wagner, who pled guilty to all eight murders to spare his mother and father from the death penalty. The Sentences: We cover the emotional and tense courtroom proceedings that led to the sentences for all four family members, including the life without parole sentences handed down. The Unanswered Questions: While justice has been served in the eyes of the law, we still explore the lingering questions surrounding the planning, the execution, and the sheer ruthlessness required to wipe out an entire family. Join us as we close the chapter on this dark episode in Ohio's history, examining the convictions, the sentences, and the final search for peace for the surviving Rhoden family members.

In this episode, Emily Berning, co-founder of Let Them Live, joins the conversation to share how one act of radical obedience turned into a national movement that has helped hundreds of women choose life. Emily and her husband started with nothing but conviction—emptying their own bank account to meet the needs of one mother in crisis. From that single step of faith, God multiplied their “yes” into an organization that's now rescued over a thousand babies from abortion. Our conversation isn't just about the incredible work of Let Them Live—it's about what it means to say yes to God when it feels terrifying. Emily's story is a testimony to how obedience, even when it doesn't make sense, becomes the catalyst for miracles. We talk about the power of meeting people where they are, how God provides when the numbers don't add up, and what it looks like to keep walking when fear tells you to stop. Whether you're passionate about defending life, feeling called to start something new, or simply need a reminder that God honors faith over comfort, this episode will challenge and encourage you to step out and trust Him with what you have.

Have you ever said your child, “Don't yell at your brother!” If so, were you yelling? What's happening in a child's body filled with angry is louder than what's going on in their brain. As Christi says in this episode, “Our body sends 10 messages to our brain for every 1 our brain sends to our body.” In other words, our body speaks louder than our brain. So why have we stopped listening to the body? What's actually going in our child's body in their anger? What's happening on our body in our anger? And why, for our children, is loving touch the most powerful way for the body to know “felt safety?”As we close out season 6 on Relational Intelligence in Kids, Christi answers these questions and shares why the body protects our children anytime there is a threat to their connection, belonging, safety, and dignity. She also explains how we as parents can help our kids restore felt safety and why these principles will be an integral part of KidsRQ.Time Stamps:0:00 KidsRQ and body-based tools3:00 Why the body matters for healing5:20 The tripartite God and what it means for us created in His image9:12 How the nervous system and emotions protect children17:47 Relating to our kids on earth as in heaven21:52 Moving emotion through your body25:27 Ways to learn this through Famous at Home Show Notes: Sign up for a free trial of KidsRQ! https://www.kidsrq.com Join KidsRQ at the Founding Members rate: https://www.kidsrq.com Interested in Tender & Fierce?

This episode concludes our series on one of the most painful lies widows and single moms often believe—that it was somehow our fault our husband died, or that our children are growing up without their dad because of something we did or failed to do. Regret is real, but it never gets the final word. God does, and He is our Redeemer.We will look at the character of God as Redeemer, explore how to rest in His care, and share practical encouragement for guiding our children when regret creeps in or when they begin to believe the lie that their father's absence is somehow their fault.Key TakeawaysGod is our Redeemer: From Exodus to Ruth, Isaiah to the New Testament, Scripture reveals God's heart to redeem, restore, and make new. Redemption is not only what God does—it is who He is.Scriptural Anchors of Redemption: Job 19:25, Psalm 103:4, and 1 Peter 1:18–19 assure us that redemption is God's promise and His nature.Helping Children Process Regret: Recognize the lies children may believe about their father's absence and gently replace them with biblical truth about God's love and presence.Practical Tools for Moms: Model honesty before God, replace lies with truth, affirm children's love for their dad, and encourage expression and lament as steps toward healing.Living in Trust: Show your children how to rest in God's redeeming care by pointing out His provision and sharing testimonies of His restoration in your own life.Every widow, every single mom, every child has a Redeemer. Even when loss feels final and regret whispers lies, God redeems, restores, and renews. Regret does not have the final word. Christ our Redeemer does. May you and your children walk in His redeeming love.Other Resources:Link to Pt. 1-2
In the heart of Beverly Hills, just after a red-carpet movie premiere, the life of Ronni Chasen, one of Hollywood's most connected and beloved publicists, came to a violent and mysterious end. On November 16, 2010, the 64-year-old was gunned down in her Mercedes-Benz while stopped at a red light. The shocking murder of the woman who helped secure Oscar Gold for films like Driving Miss Daisy and The Hurt Locker instantly made national headlines. Ronni's influential friends quickly offered a combined $125,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. This massive reward signaled that her inner circle wasn't convinced the killing was a random act. A tip to America's Most Wanted led police to Harold Martin Smith, a man with a lengthy criminal record living in a rundown apartment complex. When confronted by detectives, Smith ended his own life with a .38 caliber revolver. The Beverly Hills Police Department officially closed the case in 2011, declaring Smith the sole killer and the motive of a random robbery gone wrong. However, this "solved" status remains highly controversial due to several glaring contradictions: Ronni's purse was untouched and nothing was taken, contradicting the robbery motive. Police claimed Smith was on a bicycle, but her autopsy report suggests an unknown vehicle pulled up beside her car. The ballistic evidence was inconclusive; documents revealed the findings were "insufficient for an identification" to definitively match the bullet to Smith's gun. Law enforcement was criticized for failing to interview multiple residents and for poor evidence collection. Thank you to this week's sponsors!

Welcome back to The Literary Life podcast today and our series on Bram Stoker's Dracula. This week Angelina Stanford, Cindy Rollins, and Thomas Banks cover chapters 8-11 of the book. Angelina explains both the “New Woman” and “Angel in the House” ideas of the Victorian era and makes some observations about Dr. Seward's interactions with Renfield in contrast to the nuns ministrations to Jonathan Harker. We are also introduced to Dr. Van Helsing in this section of the book as the foil for Dracula, and we quickly learn that he is more than just a medical man. Our hosts discuss Stoker's own medical knowledge and both the historical and metaphorical context of the blood transfusion procedures in these chapters. Be sure to check out all that is happening at The House of Humane Letters and Morning Time for Moms in this season so you don't miss out on all their current offerings!

Puberty often begins earlier than most parents expect and shows up in subtle, easily missed ways. In this episode, we speak with bestselling author and pediatrician Dr. Cara Natterson to demystify the emotional, social, and physical changes boys go through during puberty. We discuss what early signs to watch for, why silence is often mistaken for disconnection, and how to keep communication open even when your child begins pulling away. You'll learn what puberty really looks like (hint: it doesn't start with facial hair), how hormones affect boys differently than girls, and what parents can do to build trust, connection, and confidence through this critical phase.

Listen to today's episode on our website Caitlyn earned her degree in Dental Hygiene in 2016 from West Los Angeles College after almost a decade in the dental field as a dental assistant in Southern California. In 2020, Caitlyn and her family moved to the Treasure Valley in the beautiful state of Idaho. She has years of experience working in Conventional, Integrative and Airway focused dentistry. Caitlyn is passionate about early identification of craniofacial growth and jaw development deficiencies in children. These negative growth patterns can have profound effects on sleep, breathing and the TMJ into adulthood. Caitlyn believes that Myofunctional therapy is one of the most underutilized treatment modalities in dentistry. Her goal as a therapist is to bridge the gap between oral and systemic health with a focus on nasal breathing, tongue posture, correct swallow and lip seal. She is passionate about encouraging proper craniofacial growth in children and supporting breathing and sleep optimization in all ages.

Even adult children need their parents. But when things get rocky, how can you improve relationships with adult children? In the evolving world of parenthood, maintaining a strong bond with adult children presents unique challenges. As children transition into adulthood, the dynamics shift, often leading to confusion for parents. However, with understanding and a strategic approach, it's possible to improve relationships with adult children and cultivate a healthy, fulfilling family connection. Understanding the Shift in Dynamics Once children turn 18, they are legally considered adults. This milestone often surprises parents who feel uncertain about their new role. As children grow into their independence, they become increasingly determined to make their own choices, sometimes clashing with their parents' ideals. This can lead to emotional chaos and strained relationships. However, understanding these dynamics is the first step to improving relationships with adult children. The Importance of Self-Connection For mothers, connecting with themselves is paramount. As the cornerstone of the family, maintaining inner peace is essential. By prioritizing self-awareness, moms can better navigate the emotional upheavals that come with parenting adult children. Self-care and inner reflection act as the glue that binds the family, providing stability during times of change. Listening and Validating Emotions Open communication is essential for improving relationships with adult children. It is necessary to engage in active listening, validate the emotions of your children, and initiate a dialogue about their feelings and experiences. By acknowledging their perspectives, parents can build a stronger, more respectful relationship. The Role of Faith-Based Strategies For those who treasure faith, integrating it into your parenting approach can help mend and strengthen familial ties. By relying on spiritual guidance, parents can find peace in surrendering their worries and trusting a higher power with their children's paths. This can lead to healing and transformation within the family unit. Read the full show notes and access all links.
