In this episode of the award-winning Caregiver S.O.S. On Air, hosts Ron Aaron and Carol Zernial sit down with Dr. Grace Macalino, a public health researcher and the founder and CEO of CAPWA AllCare. Drawing from her personal experience navigating the complex journey of caring for her aging parents, Dr. Macalino discusses a critical yet often overlooked aspect of caregiving: the massive shift in personal identity. When we become caregivers, we easily get swallowed up by "the doing"—the endless list of daily tasks, doctor appointments, and logistics. But what happens to who we are? Dr. Macalino introduces her Evidence-Informed Caregiver Identity Framework, offering listeners a much-needed language to understand the emotional evolution, isolation, and unspoken guilt that comes with stepping into a caregiving role. Whether you are balancing a career, managing long-distance care, or learning how to transition a loved one into memory care, this episode offers a compassionate roadmap to finding agency, setting boundaries, and reclaiming moments of joy. Key Takeaways The Distinction Between 'The Doing' and 'The Being': Caregiver burnout and isolation often don't stem from the physical tasks themselves, but from the unaddressed emotional toll of an eroding personal identity. The 'Deafening Silence' of Caregiving: Unlike becoming a parent, society rarely acknowledges or celebrates the massive identity shift of becoming a caregiver, leaving many to feel entirely alone. Reclaiming Your Original Role: When the scale tips and you forget you are a daughter, son, or spouse because you are only acting as a caregiver, it is a sign of trouble. Transitioning a loved one to professional care (like memory care) can painfully but beautifully allow family members to step back into their original roles as husbands, wives, or children. The Power of Bahala Na: Embracing a cultural mindset of letting go of control—acknowledging that you have done your absolute best and accepting that "it is what it is"—is essential for releasing caregiving guilt and shame. Moving from Survival to Agency: By understanding the stages of the caregiver identity, individuals can move past mere survival and gain the agency to keep themselves in control of their own journey. About Dr. Schauf Dr. Grace Macalino Schauf, PhD, MPH, is the Founder and CEO of Kapwa AllCare. Drawing on her background in public health and her personal caregiving experiences, she developed the Caregiver Identity Framework, an evidence-informed approach that helps caregivers better understand their journey, reclaim agency, and build sustainable support systems for themselves and their loved ones. Hosts Ron Aaron and Carol Zernial, and their guests talk about Caregiving and how to best cope with the stresses associated with it.

Mandy J. Hill, DrPH, MPH, HIVPCP, is a first-time guest on the Faculty Factory who is highly aware of the unique challenges leaders face. She joins us this week to explore a critical yet often overlooked issue: the toxic feeling of a need to overperform in this field. Dr. Hill currently serves as Professor and Chair of the Department of Population Health and Health Disparities, and Centennial Chair in Preventive Medicine and Community Health, in the School of Public and Population Health at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB). Overperforming is frequently normalized because faculty are conditioned to exceed expectations rather than simply meet them. But "when that becomes the norm, you can create a toxic condition," as Dr. Hill points out in the interview's opening moments. “If you are an early-stage investigator without mentors and champions willing to bring you into that ‘winning team,' the default way of thinking is to do more,” Dr. Hill said. Overperforming is quickly becoming (if not already) the baseline in academia. It is the overwhelming reality of the culture, so what can be done? Autonomy and investing in ourselves are the only paths forward, and choosing when enough is enough has to be implemented or we risk creating a profession that no one will want to enter.

When a disaster is prevented, it doesn't make the news and most don't hear about it; and that's exactly the problem. In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast with Dr. Barry Davis, biostatistician and author of The Preventioneers, we explore why prevention's biggest successes stay invisible. We discuss why climate warnings have gone unheeded for 170 years, why treatment beats prevention for the "popular vote," and how to rebuild trust with a public that distrusts experts. The answer isn't more data, but humility, storytelling, and trusted messengers.References for Our Discussion◼️[NEW BOOK] The Preventioneers: Diseases, Disasters, and the Discoveries That Changed Our World◼️An Ounce of Prevention: A Substack by Barry R.

Dave Lawn spent 40 years coaching college baseball — Cal, USC, Nevada, Arizona, TCU, and a stop-along-the-way at Cal State Fullerton where he was, by his own count, "the first player development guy" in the country back in 2013. He walked away from the sport six weeks ago. He sat down with Trevor to talk not about pitching or tech or metrics, but about what the game actually teaches you when you give it 40 years of your life.This is an episode about the curriculum baseball hides in plain sight. Coaches, players, parents — the lessons work for anyone who's ever competed or led.A few of the ones Dave lays out:Take joy in the joy of others. The bulk of a coaching career gets spent chasing the dogpile and the next job. The joy that actually holds up is the joy in the players — not your own.The rhythm of baseball is a life skill. Four games a week means kids have to sit on a bad outing for days. That's where the mental training really happens, and it doesn't happen in a sport with a game every night.The real reward isn't the trophy — it's the sheriff, the doctor, and the wedding invite. Dave tells the Bobby Kalon story (Cal fireballer at 82 mph → Navy medical school → 15 years running a naval air station clinic) and the John Hardy story (1987 Contra Costa kid → Solano County sheriff). Both still call. Both still send updates. That's the actual scoreboard."Not blaming, complaining, or explaining." The Peyton Toley postgame interview after a rough start that Dave sent to every pitcher in the room. Own it. Reset. Go pitch six shutout innings against a big-league team the next time out."Uncoachable" is a cuss word. The question a scout should be asking pre-draft isn't "is he coachable" — it's does he let you help?Great coaches are master communicators — and chameleons. One kid walks into an exit meeting needing one thing. The next kid walks in needing the opposite. The best coaches read the room and adjust — and the best of them know when to shut up and get out of the way. Oklahoma's title team as the reference point.The 10,000-foot view is what private instruction is missing. A track-man report and a video clip can't see the conniption fit in the dugout between innings. That's where the coaching actually happens.Why this matters:Development conversations in modern baseball live in metrics and mechanics. This one lives underneath both — in the character architecture that has to be there before the metrics matter. Dave Lawn is exactly the voice for the show that makes that case. 00:00 Intro · Dave Lawn Returns 00:55 Arizona and the High Corbett Facility 01:40 Where They Filmed "Major League" 03:41 40 Years, the Biggest Lessons Question 03:50 Lesson · Take Joy in the Joy of Your Players 05:52 Lesson · Baseball's Rhythm Teaches Patience 07:02 The Recruiting Circuit He'll Miss 08:14 Learning by Watching Other Coaches 10:05 Peyton Toley's Joy on the Mound 12:08 The Big 12 Pitcher of the Year Phone Call 16:40 "Not Blaming, Complaining, or Explaining" 17:25 What Coaching Fulfillment Actually Looks Like 18:29 Bobby Kalon · 82 MPH to Navy Doctor 21:28 John Hardy · From Cal Kid to County Sheriff 23:37 The 18-23 Bad Guy Years 24:37 Tanner Segoosby in the Morgantown Rain 27:31 The Daughter's Retirement Tweet 28:29 Retirement · No Alarm Clock 30:34 First "Player Development" Guy in 2013 35:29 Great Coaches Are Master Communicators 37:02 Michael Jordan Never Said He Was the Best 38:26 Player-Run Teams · When to Get Out of the Way 39:32 The Chameleon Coach 41:10 Kids Taking Coaching as a Personal Attack 43:28 The 10,000-Ft View Private Instruction Misses 46:20 "That Kid's Soft" · No, He's Learning 47:00 "Uncoachable" Is a Cuss Word 48:02 Nobody Pays for the Basics 49:38 Jab vs Haymaker 52:10 Terry Francona's Spring Training Speech 53:14 A 1-0 Changeup Pitches Into the Ninth 55:50 The Lawn Dart · A Nevada Trick Pitch 59:08 The 0-2 Count Is When You Throw It 1:00:11 Closing · Thank You

REPLAY! This episode deserves a second listen, so we are bringing back a conversation you do not want to miss.Your body carries a hidden chemical load, and most of the sources sit in your kitchen, your bathroom, and your grocery cart.On Wellness Junkies, host Amy Sherman talks with Jenna Hua, PhD, CEO and founder of Million Marker, about endocrine-disrupting chemicals and how these hidden toxins can interfere with hormones, fertility, and long-term health. Jenna started Million Marker in 2019. The company offers a mail-in urine test for hormone disruptors, informed by her fertility struggles and her research as an environmental health scientist.Jenna explains why BPA-free products can fall short, since manufacturers may swap one molecule for another and leave the label unchanged. She breaks down how phthalates in cosmetics can hide under the single word “fragrance” and shares the moment she found phthalates in her own vitamins and packaging tape.The conversation connects fertility, toxins, and long-term health with clear science, showing why these exposures can build slowly over time. Jenna closes with simple ways to detox your home, from stainless steel cookware to glass food storage to a reverse osmosis water filter.

A doctor proves handwashing saves lives and gets destroyed for it. A president dies of a preventable stroke. Scientists spend decades proving smoking kills while the industry fights back. In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, Dr. Barry Davis, author of The Preventioneers, introduces us to people in history who saw catastrophe coming, built the evidence, and ran straight into resistance from industries, institutions, and a public that didn't want to hear it. If prevention saves lives, protects health, and saves money, why do we keep ignoring it until it's too late? This episode digs into that question.References for Our Discussion◼️[NEW BOOK] The Preventioneers: Diseases, Disasters, and the Discoveries That Changed Our World◼️An Ounce of Prevention: A Substack by Barry R.

I'm on call July 4th for the first time in what feels like forever, and I have fully lost perspective on what call should feel like. 2018 me, fresh out of an Iowa trauma center, would be horrified at how nervous private practice me has gotten about it. I'll report back after the holiday. Today's main event is World Cup eye injuries. Every professional sport needs an ophthalmologist on the sideline, soccer included, and I walk through three I'd be ready for. First, a 50 MPH ball off Erling Haaland the Viking's foot straight to the face, hyphema, open globe risk at the equator and limbus, retinal dialysis in young patients. Second, a player smashing their face on a goalpost, orbital floor fractures, the workup for extra-ocular muscle entrapment, and a full breakdown of eyelid laceration repair: above brow, below brow, eyelid margin, and canalicular. Third, the soccer flop, where grass exposure can deliver a corneal abrasion or an allergic reaction, and the drops I reach for. I've got more on deck if the tournament keeps giving me material. Takeaways: A high-velocity soccer ball to the face can cause hyphema (sheared vessels in the anterior chamber), an open globe at one of the eye's two weak points (the equator behind the extra-ocular muscles and the limbus at the edge of the cornea), or a retinal dialysis, especially in younger patients Hyphema management is driven by eye pressure: normal pressure means strict couch-potato rest until the blood clears, because a second bleed is always worse than the first; very high pressure may require surgical evacuation A face-into-goalpost impact most commonly causes an orbital floor fracture; suspected extraocular muscle entrapment is a PANTS patient, the ophthalmologist comes in, the orbit gets scanned, and forced duction testing rules entrapment in or out Eyelid laceration repair depends on location: above the brow is straightforward, below the brow uses skin-only sutures because there's an eyeball underneath, eyelid margin lacerations require specialized technique, and canalicular lacerations need temporary tube placement Even a soccer flop can cause real eye injury, grass exposure can lead to corneal abrasion or an allergic reaction in the fornix, treated first-line with antihistamine drops like Patanol, Pataday, or Zaditor, with short-course topical steroids for severe cases To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Paul Skenes' velocity averaged 96.3 MPH and was a career low. His breaking ball was not good. It seems something is physically wrong with Skenes. Skenes' velocity keeps declining and is 30th in the major leagues in ERA. MLB and Pirates analyst Matt Clement joined the show. Skenes' velocity is down and Matt said Skenes throwing 35 pitches in an inning on a day near 100 degrees is a reason why the velo was down.

"I need to be bold and empower myself to this too! And Nurses are uniquely positioned to do that, and I really think through empowerment and being a bit more bold I can transform healthcare in many different ways." ~Elise H. Peterson MS, MPH, BSN, RN, CPN, AMB-BC, AHN-BC, NC-BCAh-Ha MomentsIntegrative Nurse Coaching empowers nurses to lead with courage, and to be bold. Elise shares how stepping into Integrative Nurse Coaching gave her the confidence to advocate for herself, embrace new opportunities, and create a career aligned with her purpose rather than staying where she had outgrown.From "educating and directing" to partnering and empowering. One of Elise's biggest transformations was learning to shift from telling patients what to do, to partnering with them, honoring each person as the expert in their own life, who is ready for change in their own time.Nurse Coaching skills extend far beyond the bedside. From pediatric critical care and global medical missions with Operation Smile, to a health technology startup supporting caregivers of people living with dementia, Elise demonstrates how coaching principles can transform healthcare in every setting.An exciting new chapter for ALL Nurse Coaches. Elise shares the vision behind the International Nurse Coach Association (INCAssociation), a growing professional organization creating state, regional, national, and international connections, leadership opportunities, continuing education, and community for Nurse Coaches around the world.What's on Elise's heart? Elise reminds us that boldness, connection, partnership, and humanity have the power to transform both nursing and healthcare. When nurses embrace these qualities, they create healing not only for their patients but also for themselves and the future of the profession.Resources and LinksIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcast International Nurse Coaching Association I-NCAInternational Nurse Coaching Association Facebook pageElise's LinkedInElise's email: elisepeterson@hotmail.comIntegrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

For many, the double murder case that put Makcenzie Shirilla behind bars to serve a life sentence comes as one of the most shocking true crime cases in recent memory. Driving on an obscure road in her small town of Strongville, Ohio, Mackenzie slammed her vehicle into the side of a building at nearly 100 MPH, immediately killing her passengers, Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan. While the case garnered much attention at the time, it has recently reentered the public conversation following Netflix's documentary, The Crash. So today, we're reexamining the case, looking at new evidence, body cam footage, text messages, and jail cell confessions in an attempt to provide the most complete picture of Mackenzie and her crimes.

About this episode: Research on the potential impacts of certain medications, vaccines, and interventions on pregnant people and their fetuses is lacking. Much of this is due to culturally perceived risks associated with pregnancy and fears of litigation. In this episode: Ruth Faden, an expert in bioethics, explains how this gap in data can fuel other risks and how to ethically and responsibly include pregnant people in clinical trials. Note: This conversation builds on a recent episode of playing god?, the podcast from the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics. Listen to that episode here.

Think about the last time you had to time something perfectly. Maybe it taking that perfect swing at the baseball, or catching a flight after a commute, or making a high-stakes decision. In the world of high-risk pregnancy, clinicians play a constant game of high-stakes timing with a usual medication called antenatal corticosteroids. Given to moms at risk of giving birth early, these steroids are a gamechanger for a preterm neonate. But there's a catch. If you give them too early, the benefits fade. If you give them too late and she delivers very quickly, they don't have time to work. A brand-new study published in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology by Mark Clapp et al reveals just how incredibly difficult this balancing act is. This data shows that nearly 26% of pregnant individuals who received these steroids actually went on to deliver completely full-term, exposing babies to medications they might not have needed. So how do we as clinicians solve this OB Goldilocks problem where the stakes are a newborn baby's health? On today's episode, we break down the data behind 'maximizing benefit while avoiding overuse' and what it means for real world practice.Strong Coffee Company - Protein Coffee PLUS MORE; Get 20% OFF | Promo Code: CHAPANOSPINOBG https://promocode.to/strong-coffee-company/chapanospinobg-hbv1.
