Episode Notes Understanding Neurodivergence: Beyond the Buzzword Join us for a powerful conversation with Sierra Grandy—attorney, speaker, and advocate—as we dive deep into what neurodivergence really means beyond the popular buzzword. Sierra brings both professional expertise and lived experience to this essential discussion, sharing her journey from childhood mental health struggles through electroconvulsive therapy to eventual diagnosis with autism and ADHD as an adult. In this episode, we explore: What neurodivergence actually means (and why it's more than just a trendy term) The difference between neurodivergent and neurotypical experiences How masking works and why it's both protective and exhausting The intersection of mental health, chronic pain, and neurodivergence Why accommodations benefit everyone, not just neurodivergent individuals Practical advocacy and the importance of "nothing about us without us" Sierra candidly discusses her path from surviving multiple hospitalizations to becoming a thriving advocate, revealing how proper diagnosis transformed her understanding of decades of struggles. This conversation challenges assumptions about disability, accommodation, and what it means to create truly inclusive systems. Whether you're neurodivergent yourself, support someone who is, or simply want to better understand the diverse ways brains work, this episode offers invaluable insights into building a more accessible world for everyone.

Send us a textConflict is inevitable in relationships. There is no way to avoid disagreements, different perspectives, or misunderstandings. However, when it comes to conflict in a relationship knowing how to Fight Fair is essential.  Despite the rules of engagement, we have all been guilty of doing and saying things that we later regret or that were unproductive to the overall health of the relationship. This episode goes beneath the surface of basic “rules” and explores why we do certain things, despite knowing better.  Why do we consistently apologize for the same things, but then react when triggered? How do we get off the roller coaster of unhealthy cycles or use conflict to propel us forward instead of backward? Drawing from decades of clinical experience and research, Dr. Demas answers many of these questions and more. If you are in a relationship or looking to improve how you do relationships, this is a must listen. Whether at work, in your family, or in an intimate relationship, improving how you deal with conflict critically important. Don't forget to subscribe to the Untherapeutic Podcast on your favorite streaming platform and follow Dr. Demas online. You can also schedule a counseling appointment with Dr. Demas online or with Dr. Nic Hardy.  About Dr. Glenda Demas As an experienced psychotherapist, I offer a warm and welcoming therapeutic atmosphere that fosters personal growth.

In the gripping continuation of "No Way, Jose!", host Jose Galison delves into Part 3B, titled “Looking For An Army,” exploring Dr. Wendy Painting's revelatory research on Timothy McVeigh's activities in Kingman, Arizona, during 1993. This episode uncovers McVeigh's efforts to connect with both prominent and obscure figures within the white power movement (WPM), spotlighting his initial interactions and proximity to individuals tied to the National Alliance. Dr. Painting's research reveals the intricate relationships between these figures, Reverend Jack Oliphant, and the Aryan Nations, painting a vivid picture of the extremist networks McVeigh sought to infiltrate or align with. Jose meticulously unpacks these connections, highlighting how McVeigh's movements in Kingman positioned him at the heart of a broader, shadowy web of far-right actors.Part 3B also revisits the role of PATCON and its handler, Don Jarrett, whose involvement in the FBI's subsequent investigation of specific individuals in this network adds a layer of intrigue to the Oklahoma City Bombing probe. The episode further explores McVeigh's use of alternative communication methods beyond the well-known ‘Daryl Bridges Calling Card,' shedding light on his covert efforts to build alliances. With Dr. Painting's research as the foundation, "NWJ 557" offers a compelling deep dive into McVeigh's strategic maneuvers and the FBI's monitoring of these extremist circles. Tune in to "No Way, Jose!" for a thought-provoking examination of these critical yet often overlooked facets of the OKC bombing saga, as Jose Galison continues to unravel the hidden truths behind one of America's darkest chapters.Please consider supporting my work-Patreon- https://www.patreon.com/nowayjose2020Only costs $2/month and will get you access to episodes earlier than the publicNo Way, Jose!

Per Emile, “I wrote this book for many reasons. I'd been organizing for a decade in prison, and I witnessed the ways we in justice work have beautiful, courageous intentions and yet we often exacerbate the problems we fight against. Back then I felt like I didn't have the right frameworks to have this conversation. I dedicated the next ten years to thinking them through. I wrote Ghost in the Criminal Justice System not as a solutions book. I wrote it as an offering of these frameworks in the hopes that you will share them in your communities, so that we can come up with solutions together.”Confirmed Book tour dates in Oakland, San Francisco, Santa Cruz and Chicago: https://www.reframeconsults.com/events - please RSVP!Ghost in the Criminal Justice Machine: Reform, White Supremacy, and an Abolitionist Future is also a great teaching tool.
