Season 8, Episode 116 "Alone, but never lonely."I'm recapping my Valentine's Day weekend and my Grandma's 69th birthday celebration. This week reinforced that while I may be alone in my relationship status, I'm never lonely. I reflect on the importance of self-love, self-treatment, and how being whole within yourself prepares you for a monogamous relationship. As a certified lover girl, I value genuine connections, but I admit that love can feel scary when you realize you can't control how someone else feels about you. And what does it even mean when someone says “let's just try”?Beyond love and relationships, I dive into an important conversation about safe sex and procreation, discussing the heartbreaking case out of Detroit where two children tragically lost their lives to hypothermia after their mother, who was homeless, reached out to their father for help, but he declined. This leads me to reflect on the importance of being intentional about who you have children with, as well as my estranged relationship with my father.Plus, exciting updates—I'll be a guest on the Hurtbros Podcast this Thursday, and I'm hosting Nail Nation VA's 3rd Annual Nail Tech Battle!Main Topics Discussed:1.

Me and My Grandma (the OG Hot Literati) discussing her early experiences with media, her love of reading, and more. hotliterati.com

This is a story that my Dad told to me when I was younger, about his Mom (my Grandma) and her next door neighbor who was a thief. My Grandma caught and confronted her neighbor stealing from her, right in front of her nose.  The way she put an end to the robbery, was genius. It will bring you a chuckle... and also some wisdom. Here is the story in detail.  Enjoy!   P.S. My daughters Anna and Gracine took this story and wrote and illustrated an entertaining children's book based on this story.... as you can probably guess. I highly recommend. You can order it on our website here, and get it for Christmas: https://mcfieinsurance.com/store-detail/#GrandmasCoffeeCan

January 2, 2024 Today's Reading: Isaiah 61:10-62:3Daily Lectionary: Isaiah 62:1-12; Luke 2:1-20I will greatly rejoice in the Lord;  my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation;  he has covered me with the robe of righteousness (Isaiah 61:10)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Merry Ninth Day of Christmas!Did you receive a new dress, sweater, or even a new coat for Christmas? My Grandma and Grandpa usually gifted each of us eight grandchildren with some new clothes every year at our celebration on Christmas Eve.  When we were little and only wanted toys, these weren't the most popular gifts, but as we matured and grew older we enjoyed them.There are times when we might not think of Baptism as the best gift.  Moments of Old Adam selfishly and shamefully saying, “I'd rather have toys.”  “I'd rather have all the fun promised by temptations that surround me.”  Your sinful flesh teams up with the devil and the world, trying to sway you from appreciating the good gifts with which the Lord covers you with His righteousness.But God is the Giver of every good and perfect gift.  He used the hands and voice of your pastor to baptize you into Christ and clothe you with Christ.  “For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” (Galatians 3:27)  You have been clothed with Christ!  Jesus IS the robe of righteousness given to you at Baptism, covering you with His salvation.  And in those moments of unappreciation of His gifts, the Holy Spirit is bringing you to repentance, calling, gathering, enlightening, and sanctifying you.  He keeps you under that blessed covering of Christ – the garments of salvation – robe of righteousness – Jesus Himself!Holy Baptism is a gift that is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.  You don't need to be baptized more than once.  It remains.  So once you have put on Christ and been clothed with Him, you can always rejoice.  WIth the simple gift of water in and with the Word of God's name, He claims you and covers you.  The Holy Spirit keeps you in that one true faith given at your Baptism, and you just can't help but rejoice and exult!The new sweater you got from Grandma; the college sweatshirt from Mom and Dad; even the HT gear you got yourself – they are all great!  But infinitely greater is the gift that in Baptism, you have put on Christ, and were clothed with salvation and covered with righteousness!I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; he has covered me with the robe of righteousness.  In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.In Baptism we now put on Christ –  Our shame is fully covered  WIth All that He once sacrificed  And freely for us suffered.For here the flood of His own blood  Now makes us holy, right, and good   Before our heav'nly Father.  (LSB 596:4)-Pastor Richard Heinz is pastor at Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church, Lowell, IN.Audio Reflections Speaker: Pastor Jonathan Lackey is the pastor at Grace Lutheran Church, Vine Grove, Ky.Study Christ's words on the cross to see how you can show more Christlike grace in your life. Perfect for group or individual study, each chapter has a Q&A at the end, and the back of the book includes a leader guide. Available now from Concordia Publishing House.

Episode 148: Leg CrampsFuture Dr. Weller explains the pathophysiology, management, and prevention of leg cramps. Hector Arreaza adds comments and anecdotes about leg cramps.  Written by Olivia Weller, MS4, American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine. Comments by Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Definition: Known also as “Charlie horses,” leg cramps are defined as recurrent, painful, involuntary muscle contractions. They can last anywhere from seconds to several minutes, with an average of nine minutes per episode. They are usually nocturnal and thus may be associated with secondary insomnia. Location: A muscle cramp can happen in any muscle in the body, but they occur most commonly in the posterior calf muscles, but they can also involve the thighs or feet. They are more common in women than men and the risk increases with age.Although they are experienced by 7% of children and up to 60% of adults, the exact mechanism remains unknown and there is no definitive treatment at this time. PathophysiologyThere is one leading hypothesis for nocturnal cramps that occur in the posterior calf muscles, and it is related to your sleeping position. When you are laying down in bed your toes are pointed which causes passive plantar flexion while the muscle fibers are shortened maximally. This causes uninhibited nerve stimulation with high-frequency involuntary discharge from lower motor neurons, which causes cramping. Another possible etiology is nerve damage because neurologic conditions such as Parkinson's disease are associated with a higher-than-normal incidence of cramps. Peripheral neuropathy, or damage to the connection between motor nerves and the brain can lead to hyperactive nerves when they are not being properly regulated. Thus, diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for nocturnal cramps due to the high blood sugar levels damaging the small blood vessels which supply the muscles. Decreased blood flow has also been attributed as a cause of leg cramps. People with diseases that affect their vasculature, such as varicose veins or peripheral arterial disease also have a higher incidence of leg cramps. Decreased blood flow to the muscles means less delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles which makes them more susceptible to fatigue. Muscle overuse is one of the dominant explanations for cramping. This can be related to doing too much high-intensity exercise without adequate stretching before and after. Pregnant women have added weight which puts extra strain on the muscles, along with sitting or standing for long periods of time, poor posture and flat feet. Notably, when we age, our tendons naturally shorten and they cannot work as hard, or as quickly which makes them more susceptible to overuse. Additionally, there are mineral deficiencies such as magnesium and potassium or decreased levels of B and D vitamins. With this in mind, people with renal failure that are on hemodialysis have an increased risk of nocturnal leg cramps. And finally, we have medications, some of which are related to mineral deficiencies. The main contributors are statins, diuretics, conjugated estrogens, gabapentin or pregabalin, Zolpidem, clonazepam, albuterol, fluoxetine, sertraline, raloxifene, and teriparatide (analog for parathyroid hormone). Management and preventionThere is no magic treatment to make them go away immediately, however, there are different remedies you can try to help facilitate. My Grandma told me about an old wives' tale, that if you put a bar of soap in your bed at your feet while you sleep, you won't get cramps at night. Maybe it works by the placebo effect, maybe there's a mechanism going on there I don't understand who knows, I'll have to do a study on it. If you get them very often, you can keep a foam roller or a heating pad next to your bed in preparation for when they come. Stretching the muscle is known to be very effective, as well as applying heat or ice to the affected area. You can also try massaging the muscle with your hands or getting out of bed to stand or walk around. Elevating the leg while laying down in bed can also be beneficial. In terms of prevention, you can try out different sleeping positions to see if one works better for you. If you usually sleep on your back, you can stick a pillow under your feet to help keep your toes pointed upward. Or, if you sleep on your stomach you can try to keep your feet hanging off the bed. Another tip is loosening the sheets or blankets around your feet. Daily stretching, especially before and after exercise as well as before bed is useful. Make sure to exercise, stay hydrated, and limit your alcohol and caffeine consumption. You also want to wear supportive shoes or use orthotic inserts in your shoes, especially if you spend lots of time on your feet during the day. Medications/supplements: Since various deficiencies can cause cramps, one way to prevent them is to take supplements such as magnesium, vitamin D, and B12 complex. And as a last resort, you can try medications. Calcium channel blockers such as diltiazem or verapamil have been used, and muscle relaxants including Orphenadrine (Norflex®) and Carisoprodol (Soma®). Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant commonly used as a neuropathic pain medication; this used to be used to treat leg cramps but later it was found that they can actually increase the frequency of muscle cramps so they are no longer used. Quinine was also used for many years to treat leg cramps; however, it is no longer recommended because of drug interactions and serious hematologic effects such as immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). Summary: Leg cramps are common, the pathophysiology is unclear, but may be related to problems with blood flow, the nervous system, sleeping position, and muscle overuse. Treatment includes nonpharmacologic therapies such as changes in sleeping position, heat, and massaging; and medications/supplements that may be useful include Carisoprodol (Soma®), diltiazem, gabapentin (Neurontin), magnesium, orphenadrine (Norflex®), verapamil, and vitamin B12 complex.____________________________Conclusion: Now we conclude episode number 148, “Leg Cramps.” Future Dr. Weller explained that the etiology of leg cramps is multifactorial. Some theories about why leg cramps happen include poor circulation, muscle overuse, dysfunctions in the nervous and musculoskeletal systems, electrolyte imbalances, mineral deficiencies, and more. Some therapies were discussed, including changes in position while sleeping, massage, heat pads, and medications such as calcium channel blockers, muscle relaxants, and supplements of magnesium and Vitamin B12. Gabapentin is a medication that can cause leg cramps, but some sources recommend it as a treatment as well. This week we thank Hector Arreaza and Olivia Weller.

I am quite surprised that it took us more than a year to get down with Country Music, but I'm really glad that we have, AND that we're starting this special "mini-series" with our favorite Drinkin' Songs. Annie and I both went to high school in rural Arkansas, and the first thing we ever learned about country music (having just moved from Chicago) was that there were three subjects covered:  My Truck, My Momma (or My Grandma), and My Beer, or whatever other liquor you had around.  Now that's about as simplistic as country music can get but shoot...who doesn't love a country song about drinkin'? Country Music Duets and our favorite tunes in the 2000's are coming next - and if you have any suggestions for country music Top Five LIsts, just shoot us an email:  hello@thetopfivepodcast.com  And you are seriously a big old fool if you don't fall in LOVE with this playlist!  it's pretty freaking epic if I do say so myself!  Check it out HERE.

This episode stretches a bit farther back in time to the childhood of my 98 year old Grandma, a time when nothing went to waste and children truly learned the value of hard work. She is one of the few remaining that can personally recall living in the “Dust Bowl”. My Grandma lived in a time when there was no electricity, no freezers to store food, and no snow plows! However, there was still bacon! After marrying my Grandpa, she continued the life of a farmer. A lifestyle that has been passed down to the next generation and hopefully more to come. Email: ahomegrownfam@gmail.comInstagram: ahomegrownfamLink to the song, "Tell Me 'Bout The Good Old Days"Support the show

Talking to My Grandma by Heidy by 826 Valencia

Family recipes, passed down through generations, are one of life's greatest blessings. In my house, it's a salsa recipe, started in earnest by my mother, fiddled with endlessly by me, and one that I plan to pass down to my son. For Good Beer Hunting community editor and cooking enthusiast Stephanie Grant, it's her grandmother's recipe for red rice, an evolved version of the West African staple jollof, and one that she had to seek out in order to nurture a connection to her Gullah-Geechee identity. In a story for Good Beer Hunting titled “Hidden Heritage — A Search for Culture, Heirlooms, and My Grandma's Red Rice Recipe,” Stephanie describes the culinary treasures of past generations and how they shaped her love and longing to understand the people who came before her. In this episode, you'll hear her talk about how she's been writing this story since childhood, and what it's meant to her to see Black Southern culture be honored in kitchens and cookbooks as a long overdue legacy.  You'll also hear how her search for red rice began, how it ended, and where it's going, as she continues to put her own touch on food and history, which is something she says all generations are born to do in order to keep traditions alive and accessible. Food is a link to our past, present, and future, and it's something we can all look to as a common tie even in divisive times.

Today's guest is solving employee disengagement and retention issues in the workplace. As an international keynote speaker, corporate trainer, and executive speech/acting coach, she works with leaders who need to learn how to create teams that find solutions by parking their egos, playing nice, engaging, and retaining employees. She is an award-winning actor, author, filmmaker, and nurse. She co-founded a stand-up and improv comedy company in the San Francisco area and has taught improv since 1995 to students of all ages and stages. She's the author of “Improv to Improve Your Leadership Team: Tear Down Walls and Build Bridges,” a book where you can QUICKLY discover how to use the principles of applied improvisational exercises from the arts to help teams effectively connect and communicate. As an actor, she's just back from an off-Broadway run with her 3rd solo show, An Evening With Florence Nightingale: The Reluctant Celebrity. Please join me in welcoming Candy Campbell. In this episode we discuss: her thoughts on leadership: “Leadership is less about the slogans and acronyms. Those things don't change the culture. Leadership is changing culture; the only way to do that is to risk being vulnerable and be authentic.” Why she believes changing culture has to start at the top. Candy's perfect origin story is about a fun rivalry that led to something much bigger. How she came to be the first editor of the school newspaper. Her unofficial role as her 4th grade's class resident film critic. “I feel like I'm at the psychiatrist's office.” Candy takes us on a journey from being the oops kid and why she didn't consider herself a leader. Her love of riding horses and being paid to be in the saddle. She got a full scholarship to college in speech communications and could keep it after switching majors if she participated on the debate team. …And then she gave it up. How she got a full-time scholarship in Acting after performing in spring theater at her school. Why she gets so much joy from being a goofball. A moment she stood her ground and quit acting for over a decade over the inappropriate behavior of her costar. How she came to work for PanAm, a different sort of acting. How she combines her nursing and acting skills to help others. What she's looking forward to in the year ahead.
