Florida's 2027 recruiting class just hit #3 in the country — and it's not slowing down. We've got a massive commitment to break down, a linebacker from a serious NFL bloodline joining the fold, a Friday Night Lights recap, and former Gator Thomas Holley sitting down to talk about his journey through one of the toughest injury stories in recent program history.This Episode Covers:

It was a pleasure to speak with Jessica and listen as she shared  all that she experienced as a high school drop out and single mother with a husband behind bars.   This major turning point in her life,  motivated her to complete her GED as well as complete college and law school, with honors, in order to help those similarly unfamiliar with the way the criminal justice system works.  When you hear the compelling stories about both  Jessica and her mother, you'll say, 'the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.'   Both women have been working tirelessly for decades in order to educate victims and their family members,  as well as inform  society to be more compassionate and aware and to update the parole and probation system. Resilience is one of the words that Jessica uses over and over again when describing her mother Maria who is originally from  Stockholm, Sweden.  Jessica also describes her mom as "a pioneer in her field." Very early on in the AIDS epidemic, Maria was involved with helping patients and their families maneuver the scary waters of a frightening disease.  While in graduate school, Maria brought her days old daughter Jessica with her to class.  Jessica went where ever her mother took her, to HIV/Aids conferences, seminars, etc. "She showed us"  says Jessica, when referring to her mother, "by her actions, not her words, on how to live life." Jessica was adamant about how her mom had a "show them, don't tell them" philosophy about life. In other words, Maria was an  example by her actions, not her words. Jessica reflects, "I never once saw my mom give up." Again, the parallels between mother and daughter are striking, Maria working with HIV/AIDS patients and Jessica with people in prison. Again, those whose lives were turned upside down, found a smart, caring and devoted women to make a difference in these unfortunate individuals lives. When Kim Kardashian West wanted tutoring in law once aware of wrongfully incarcerated first time offenders, she went to Jessica Jackson for help.  On November 29, 2019, USA Today wrote "Kim Kardashian West came on board with the campaign after she heard about Alice Marie Johnson, a grandmother who had served 21 years of a life sentence for her first-ever drug conviction, and was moved to help. Kardashian West was instrumental in convincing Trump to grant Johnson clemency. "  That's just one of thousands of cases that Jackson has had overturned and continues to fight in order to get families back together under one roof. Both of these women with all that they have accomplished and continue  to accomplish is living proof that if you set your mind to something, anything and everything is possible. As Maria said to her daughter "you can do anything, you can achieve anything, if you work hard enough."    REFORM Alliance Mission Statement: REFORM Alliance aims to transform probation and parole by changing laws, systems and culture to create real pathways to work and wellbeing. A justice system that holds people accountable and redirects back to work and wellbeing leads to stronger families and safer communities. Instead of keeping people trapped in a revolving door from probation/parole to prison — which costs taxpayers billions of dollars — we're working to move people from the justice system into stability.  History REFORM's story starts with the unjust re-imprisonment of recording artist Meek Mill. The shocking two-to-four year sentence he received for popping a wheelie spurred the international #FreeMeek movement, which led to release on bail and eventually his freedom. Although Meek had the resources and public platform to fight his case, his case is only one of millions. The vast majority of people trapped in the system don't get their stories told, or have the resources to fight back. On January 23, 2019, a world-class group of philanthropists and activists came together to launch the REFORM Alliance to change this REFORM Alliance 1675 Broadway, 21st Floor New York, NY 10019-5820 If you would like to learn more about how to support REFORM, please contact us at development@reformalliance.com. #cut50-Co founder along with Van JonesAn organization designed to cut prison populations, but also wipe out the stigmas associated with being incarcerated because of the current criminal justice system.

Just one year after Zohran Mamdani's rise to City Hall, New York City voters are headed into one of the most consequential primary elections of the 2026 cycle. With more than 200 offices on the ballot, the results could reveal whether the coalition that helped propel Mamdani to victory—a multiracial alliance of young voters, immigrants, and progressives—has the power to reshape New York politics for years to come. In this episode of The Margin, host Jen Taylor-Skinner speaks with Mitra Kalita, co-founder and CEO of URL Media, former Senior Vice President for News, Opinion and Programming at CNN Digital, and founder of Epicenter-NYC. Together, they unpack the races drawing national attention, the candidates aligned with—and challenging—the city's political establishment, and the growing influence of issues like immigration, affordability, and economic justice on local elections. They also explore what some are calling the "Mamdani Effect": the emergence of a new generation of candidates, a changing Democratic coalition, and whether New York's political transformation offers a roadmap for Democrats heading into the 2026 midterms and beyond. Topics include:• The candidates and races to watch in New York City's primary elections• Zohran Mamdani's endorsements and political influence• Immigration, affordability, and economic justice in local politics• The future of progressive politics in New York• What New York's elections could signal for Democrats nationwide Mitra Kalita is the co-founder and CEO of URL Media, a network of Black and Brown community news organizations. A veteran journalist and media executive, she previously served as Senior Vice President for News, Opinion and Programming at CNN Digital and has held leadership roles at The Wall Street Journal, Quartz, and the Los Angeles Times.

Teagasc researchers, Paul Smith and Emily Roskam, discuss the latest research on growing and finishing cattle, how this is being implemented on farms and look ahead to the upcoming National Beef Open Day, BEEF2026, taking place on July 1st at Teagasc Grange. Emily says the biggest opportunities to improve feed efficiency in growing cattle without increasing costs on farm is through good grassland management and silage quality. Teagasc research shows that increasing concentrate levels increases liveweight gain and carcass gain. This is hugely influenced by the dry matter digestibility being fed in silage and Emily highlights the various feed rates depending on silage quality and animal type. The national age at slaughter remains significantly higher than that achieved on research and top-performing commercial farms and Paul discusses the main barriers preventing farmers from finishing cattle at 22–23 months of age. Many listeners will have heard of the Beef Quest project, Paul outlines some of the key findings. At the BEEF 2026 Growing and Finishing village a central feature of the event will be a live cattle handling and finishing demonstration, facilitated by Teagasc specialist and advisory staff alongside factory procurement personnel.  Farmers will see first-hand the key areas to assess when selecting animals for sale, including the correct and incorrect levels of carcass fatness and the fat scores and grades required under the Quality Payment Scheme (QPS). Nationally, a relatively high percentage of cattle are being slaughtered at excessively high fat scores. This represents an economic cost through the use of grazed grass, silage or concentrate on animals with declining carcass performance efficiency. Selecting animals at the appropriate fat score is a must have skill for all farmers finishing beef animals.  Frank O'Sullivan, vet at Teagasc Grange, will outline key animal health considerations, while space allowance will be covered, including the correct areas required and their impact on performance.  Nutritional factors will also be discussed, focusing on winter and finishing diets. Further details at:https://teagasc.ie/event/beef2026/https://teagasc.ie/animals/beef/grange/beef2026-open-day/ For more episodes from the Beef Edge podcast, visit the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/thebeefedge Produced on behalf of Teagasc by LastCastMedia.com  

John Medina's short film, The Cure Complex, explores the epidemic of drug addiction in prison and the systemic failures that perpetuate Substance Use Disorder (SUD) in the prison system. "Recovery is an industry, and industries need customers. Rehabs don't succeed when people move on, they succeed when people stay," says Medina, whose own journey through addiction and incarceration motivated him to be an agent of change. His film highlights the importance of addressing the root causes of substance use — including trauma, poverty and isolation. Nationally, approximately 58% of the US prison population has active SUD. In California, where Medina's film is based, it's 65%. Yet, treatment behind bars is limited, inconsistent and often deadly. Only 15% of those assessed as needing help actually receive it. "True recovery isn't about quitting something, it's about building something,” says Medina. By investing in people, not just prescriptions, we can build more humane and effective pathways to healing addiction and staying clean, so that people can move onto meaningful and productive lives. Sadly, the current system, through ineffective, "evidence-based" practices, actually keeps people dependent on substances from which Big Pharma extracts enormous profit. Medina's raw and touching film uncovers how these profit-driven systems trap individuals in cycles of dependency through fear and control instead of empowering them to rebuild their lives. The film champions new and humane healing models that prioritize promoting self worth and purpose to manifest  healing and dignity. Medina is a proud Film Ambassador with Represent Justice, and The Cure Complex was selected to be one of five Represent Justice films streamed on Tubi to 100 million viewers. Watch The Cure Complex here!Have a Swan Dive to share?

As host of SHLTMM, I wanted you to know that this episode of my podcast contains some graphic or sensitive content that some may find disturbing. Gregg's podcast, "The Compulsive Storyteller" which can be found where ever you listen to podcast, is Gregg continuing the art of telling stories handed down from past generations. Worth a listen for sure. (Link is below.) When Gregg was a little boy the family had moved to the Albany, New York area. Betty owned a plane, so who better to fly with his mom on a regular basis. He loved seeing the landscape from way up in the sky. It was quite an experience for a little boy. They'd go out to lunch and fly from one location to another. Gregg really cherishes his memories of his mom. Gregg's parents were apparently too similar personalities to make a good match according to Gregg. When Betty was checked out of  the WASP at the end of WWII, she received a job offer as the first ever female flight controller at LaGuardia Airport. Her husband sent her a telegraph ordering her to go back to buffalo and wait for him and not to take the job. Gregg shares a few very telling stories about his mother's experience in the military. Unfortunately a strong, talented, fearless  women had a  tough time in a male dominated industry such as the military. Gregg often says, "she was a woman ahead of her time." Betty flew an AT-6 which was considered the best fighter training aircraft during WWII, P38 Fighter Bomber and more. Over the 32 years that Gregg knew his mother, he laments  "she never once said 'I'm sorry,' nor did she say so to my sisters or my father. That was a real disability she had.  She was very proud."  Unfortunately, Gregg's maternal  grandmother held onto grudges similar to his mother. Anyone who went against his grandmother, they also were crossed off the list forever. Being in the military was not always easy, the most challenging  was when confronted by misogynistic men. That happened on a regular basis. Unfortunately, the harassment continued after the military while working in the real estate business. "A woman who was strong and decisive and stood up for herself was basically a difficult woman," Gregg explains out of frustration. Unfortunately, Betty LeFevre, even with all her accomplishments,  was more unhappy than anyone  could have understood.  * About Gregg In His Words I'm a public artist with permanent commissions around the world, a passion for the art world, entrepreneurship, multiculturalism, & stories. I have completed over 200 permanently installed public art projects all over the world, many in the USA and a dozen in Manhattan. Library Walk, at Fifth and 41st, is the latest work of public art in NYC. Many of my projects are unique in that they consist of a series of bronze panels with text and imagery that are set in sidewalks, parks and plazas. Library Walk is two blocks long, and it's 96 bronze panels lead the viewer toward the front door of NY's central Schwarzman Library.  My public art is all about exploring the history and character of the places where it is set. I have a particular interest in telling the lost and forgotten stories from African American history, women's history, Hispanic history, natural history and those of other minority cultures. I have also turned many my experiences in and around the world of art into a podcast of short personal stories that proves truth can be stranger than fiction. The Compulsive Storytelleris my podcast of intriguing comic, tragic and weird stories, many of which involve getting myself into and out of trouble. It is available on Apple, Spotify and most other platforms.  Reviews of my public artworks can be found in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Boston Globe, the Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune, and many other newspapers, magazines and online publications.   Discover More http://andrewslefevre.com/ https://www.gregglefevre.com/nyt-bronze-star https://www.gregglefevre.com/nyt-what-lies-beneath    https://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/the-great-library-way-1411003094    https://www.grandcentralpartnership.nyc/our-neighborhood/library-way    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqwr1WdayQ0&feature=emb_imp_woyt https://open.spotify.com/show/5MllPsrmeipHqZ0vtiw2Mx https://www.thecompulsivestoryteller.com/ https://www.instagram.com/thecompulsivestoryteller/ https://www.facebook.com/TheCompulsiveStoryteller "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Kathryn was born in the Himalayas. However, both her parents were English and had the same desire of "going out to India, spreading the Gospel message and serving the poor," explains my guest. Living in Vienna as a young girl, Kathryn remembers her parents taking in refugees who were seeking political asylum and it was normal to have refugees sleeping on their floor regularly. These memories had a profound effect on Kathryn and she was certain that this is how her interests in helping the less fortunate  came to be.  Kathryn shares that her mother was not warm and fuzzy but she was from the generation of tough and strong women. Kathryn always felt very loved. Ruby was a teacher and taught her daughter and other children from the Embassy. Ruby was determined that Kathryn would not be spoiled. Kathryn was soon sent to boarding school because her parents were working and traveling regularly. "A little pencil in God's hand" is how Mother Teresa would refer to herself. She never wanted credit  or accolades for her work. "She could be a tough cookie," Spink reflects however, "she was difficult to deal with sometimes, because God was so definitely on her side and that could make things tough. Mother Teresa was so determined, nothing could get in her way." "Poverty saddened Mother Teresa the most according to Kathryn,  "I don't think it angered her not in relation to God. Waste most likely angered her the most but never with God." Mother Teresa was always seeing the presence of God in the poor and it helped her persevere.  "Tolerance was deeply ingrained in Mother Theresa" explains Ms. Spink. "Mother Teresa believed that God was at work in every soul, so it wasn't up to her to try and convince others of the 'correct/best religion." My guest remarks "Mother Teresa used to say "come to Calcutta and I'll put you to work".  This is what this demure but mighty  woman believed with her whole body, mind and spirit. Kathryn even shared stories of the similarities between Mother Teresa, whose birth name was Agnes, and her mother Drana. "The family that prays together, stays together" was one of Drana's favorite expressions according to Spink. Caring for the sick was a common thread for the two woman.  "It's not always about the physical suffering, but the whole process of being abandoned by people" was one of the toughest things for Mother Teresa to comes to terms with, comments Spink. Mother Teresa founded the order, "The Missionaries of Charities." She wanted to give shelter to  abandoned babies and to help the poorest of the poor. In 1979 she received the Nobel Peace Prize and after her death was canonized as Saint Teresa.  I could have listened for hours to my guest share her stories of all of these selfless women. Mother Teresa was known as 'Mother' because when a nun/sister is appointed to a superior position within  the church, they are known as 'Mother.' INFORMATION: Kathryn Spink is the author of several books on the work of Mother Teresa and her coworkers, as well as other inspiring contemporary figures, including Brother Roger of Taize, Beede Griffiths, Dominique LaPierre, Prince Charles' and Lady Diana Spencer and more.  My guest is also the chronicler of the “South African Women's Human Rights Organization.”  https://www.kathrynspink.com/ https://www.harpercollins.com/blogs/authors/kathryn-spink-20167212026170   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Beyond the Gun – Creative Partnerships There's a distinct difference between being cast as an actor in a theatre production and working as a creative collaborator and developing your own work. This session examines how actors can step into producing and move into the developmental life of a project—contributing ideas, shaping the script, and influencing the work as it develops. Actors such as Ngoc Phan, Nicholas Brown, Julia Robertson, Amy Ingram, and Cameron Hurry have expanded their work into producing, writing and directing. This conversation explores how actors can evolve their practice, build a reputation for meaningful creative input, and become initiators and collaborators whose contributions extend beyond performance into the heart of the work itself. Amy is a multi-award-winning actor and theatre-maker based in Brisbane, later this year she will appear in the return season of Pride And Prejudice at QTC and the World Premiere of Suzie Miller's Strong Is The New Pretty touring Nationally.

Her diverse theatre work includes Vietgone, Boy Swallows Universe and Good Grief (Queensland Theatre), Laurinda (MT), Love Stories (Brisbane Festival/QPAC), Horizon (Playlab Theatre), Medea (Shock Therapy Productions), We're All Gonna Die, Away, A Streetcar Named Desire and Stunt Double (The Farm). Julia Robertson is a multidisciplinary theatre maker, director and actor living and working on Gadigal land.

Julia was recently nominated for Best Direction of a Musical at the Sydney Theatre Awards for The Producers (Hayes Theatre Co. / Riverside Parramatta). In 2026, Julia will direct the premiere production of STELLA, The Musical in Melbourne, as well as The Addams Family for Hayes Theatre Co. She will also work as Movement Director on 84 Charing Cross Road for the Ensemble Theatre, and as Assistant Director on Suzie Miller's new work Strong Is the New Pretty for Sydney Theatre Company, Queensland Theatre and Brisbane Festival.

He plays a lead role in upcoming Alex Proyas science fiction musical film R.U.R. As a playwright, Nicholas won the prestigious Nick Enright Prize for Playwriting in the 2024 NSW Premier's Literary Awards for his play Sex Magick which was performed in the 2023 Griffin Theatre season. It was also nominated for a 2025 AWGIE and a 2024 Sydney Theatre Award. Cameron Hurry is a Brisbane based actor and writer. He completed his actor training at the University of Southern Queensland.

DESCRIPTION Today's AMPERWAVE DAILY episode pulls together a full day of political coverage centered on South Carolina's tightening governor's race, escalating internal GOP conflict, immigration enforcement actions, and national implications from newly surfaced allegations involving H-1B visa fraud and foreign credential verification. As political mailers flood key districts and accusations of misinformation intensify, Freedom Caucus lawmakers push back against what they describe as coordinated efforts to mislead voters ahead of a critical runoff election. Meanwhile, broader national debates over immigration enforcement, workforce integrity, and election security continue to collide with state-level political battles. EPISODE SUMMARY South Carolina's governor's race is heading toward a high-stakes runoff, with polling showing a tightly packed field and no clear frontrunner. Campaign dynamics shift rapidly as candidates jockey for position and outside political forces intensify messaging across the state. Freedom Caucus members face aggressive mail campaigns they say misrepresent their voting records, sparking accusations of coordinated political manipulation. Lawmakers argue that establishment-aligned groups are targeting conservative candidates with misleading narratives about taxes, pay raises, and legislative votes. On the enforcement front, a recent ICE-related operation in Abbeville continues to generate debate after reports surfaced of management-level arrests and broader questions about employer accountability in illegal hiring practices. Nationally, the discussion expands into a major controversy involving H-1B visa programs and allegations that fraudulent educational credentials may be far more widespread than previously understood. Reports suggest large numbers of counterfeit degrees could be circulating, raising concerns about professional licensing in engineering, healthcare, and technical fields. The conversation also touches on broader themes of immigration policy, labor market competition, wage suppression arguments, and the long-term effects of visa systems tied to employment-based residency pathways. Finally, concerns over election integrity, dark money influence, and transparency in political advertising add another layer of tension to an already volatile political environment. KEY TOPICS South Carolina Governor's Race & Expected Runoff GOP Primary Fragmentation Freedom Caucus Political Mailer Controversy Allegations of Misleading Campaign Messaging Abbeville ICE Raid & Employer Accountability Immigration Enforcement Policy Debate H-1B Visa Program Scrutiny Foreign Degree Fraud Allegations Labor Market & Wage Competition Debate Election Integrity & Ballot Security Concerns Dark Money & Political Influence in State Politics Federal Document Transparency Questions BIGGEST TAKEAWAYS South Carolina's governor's race remains extremely close and likely headed for a runoff. Freedom Caucus lawmakers are under heavy political pressure from outside messaging campaigns. Immigration enforcement actions are fueling broader debate over workplace compliance and accountability. Allegations of widespread foreign credential fraud are intensifying scrutiny of visa programs. Election integrity and political transparency remain central voter concerns. State and national political issues are increasingly interconnected. SOCIAL MEDIA TEASER South Carolina politics is hitting a breaking point—tight races, political mailer wars, immigration enforcement drama, and shocking allegations tied to visa fraud and foreign credentials.

Clare is one of only four counties in Ireland where there are fewer learner drivers on the roads than a year ago. Figures released by the Road Safety Authority to the Irish Road Haulage Association show there were 7,531 learner permit holders in this county at the end of March, down from 7,659 during the same period in 2025. Nationally, however, more than one in ten drivers are on a learner permit, with 6,219 more learner drivers on Irish roads compared to a year ago. Clare-based former IRHA president and Ennis haulier, Eugene Drennan, has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons while Clare is going "in the right direction", the RSA is "too big" to tackle the problem at a national level.

Christen Horne refers to herself as a nerd, geek and gamer. She's a big fan of reading and loves Star Wars. As an accomplished singer, she received her Masters in Opera Performance. In addition to the entire family being singers and musicians, archery became a big part of their lives as well.  When Karla, Christen's mother, was in high school she became the California State Champion Archer and the family still enjoys the sport today.  Having a mom that worked wasn't that unusual for Christen. Her mom had been a paralegal for years after completing her associates degree.  As the three children were growing up, Karla was  leading worship at the local church.  They spent a lot of time at the church. But my guest says she enjoyed it because they were always singing. Ms. Horne fondly remembers her mom embracing whatever fun activities the kids would be involved in, including  going to water parks and going down the water slides together, playing board games and spending quality time involved with the family. Years ago, Christen was actively involved in her community theatre programs.  She fondly retells the story of  the production of  "Fiddler On The Roof," when her mom and aunt  were  "volun-told' that they  had to play village fathers.  There were no other boys/male actors to play the part.  They still laugh about it today. Christen considered her mother as being firm yet compassionate when it came to disciplining the three kids.  Homework definitely took the priority especially over video games. Homework wasn't done, no one got  to play. Christen says  "mom was always really good about helping us find the balance in things. Making sure we had time to play  and making sure we got our homework done."   It wasn't until Christen started to realize  that she often hid her emotions, that she started to recall other instances from her childhood that were clearly  unhappy. She had suffered from depression at a young age that was left undiagnosed. She felt that her mother was embarrassed when Christen showed her true emotions. Horne shared with me that "through my mental health journey, I've gotten more comfortable being more myself around my mom."  Often feeling "this is my fault," Christen often blamed herself and felt that if her mother rejected her, it would be devastating.  It's scary to be a young child and not understand complicated emotional situation. Working with coaches on a regular basis has helped Christen tremendously. "You pick one hurt, then move on to another," reflects Horne. Through working with her coaches she says her relationship with her mom is so much better and she's very grateful for all the support. Christen is now working on her fantasy book which features her main character 'Alkara' who's named after mother and who also is an archer.

Nationally, I'm keeping an eye on three big stories this week. Robinhood is rolling out AI agents designed to help users manage investments and make purchases, while NASA prepares to introduce the astronauts who will help test technologies needed for future Moon landings. Meanwhile, a Blue Origin rocket explosion in Florida could have implications for NASA's lunar ambitions, making the future of commercial space partnerships a story worth watching.

PPD survivor & outpatient therapist soleowellness.com When I finally sat down to write my postpartum depression story, the words just came pouring out.  -Lindsey Disch  In this latest episode,  we meet Lindsey Disch, whose journey through Post Partum Depression or PPD casts a bright light on a condition many people still don't understand. Profiled in a prominent women's magazine,  Lindsey's “A Letter to My Daughter” essay caught my heart and my attention.  https://www.pinkchairstorytellers.com/storytellers/lindsey-disch.   Back in the day, people would see a mom who felt sad after childbirth and wave her off, saying, “she's got the baby blues,” but thanks to heightened medical protocols regarding PPD, more women are getting the help they need.  For Lindsey, that meant admission to a mental hospital during the first year of her daughter Alexa's life.   In this interview, she reveals what it was like to give birth after a complicated and unexpected pregnancy and shares the story of how ashamed and overwhelmed she was in the weeks following her daughter's birth.  “I just didn't care about anything anymore. All I wanted to do was lay in bed, and I thought this horrible feeling would never end.” It was during this time that her husband found her crying in the closet.  A certified mental health clinician herself, Lindsey knew there was something wrong with her.  She sought counseling and was prescribed medication, but nothing worked.  A trip to the ER resulted in Lindsey being admitted as an inpatient at McLean Hospital in Belmont, Massachusetts (mcleanhospital.org).   Nationally recognized as the #1 psychiatric care facility in the nation, Lindsey followed the advice of her care team and received 30 rounds of ECT or Electroconvulsive Therapy.  Administered under anesthesia, ECT treatment sends small electric currents through the brain, changing its chemistry, often improving symptoms of certain mental health conditions, including severe depression. However, this treatment has side effects, including difficulty with thinking, word retrieval, and memory loss. Lindsey experienced all of them.  Thriving now and back at work as an outpatient therapist at soleowellness.com in her hometown of Duxbury, Massachusetts, Lindsey lives by the wisdom her father taught her:  “the biggest challenges can present the biggest opportunities.” She is completely bonded with her daughter and is now sharing her expertise with other women experiencing depression after childbirth.   Says Lindsey:  “I want women to know that there is no shame in asking for help, and you will not recover if you try to do it alone. “ When I asked her if she'd do those treatments all over again, Lindsey replied without hesitation:  “1000%.  I'm a total badass now.  Throw something at me?  I got it.   This is my life, and I'm so lucky to be here.”  #postpartumdepression #womeninspiringwomen #thestorybehindhersuccess #mentalhealth

 Erik has always loved music, performing, dance and laughter. He didn't like school. Erik's mother, Gerri, was very clear from the beginning  on how exactly he was to get through high school. As an english teacher, she knew the benefits of a great education and wasn't about to let him slip through her fingers. Nor was she going to take any part in his decision to not get out of bed, which meant, she wasn't going to be responsible for him not graduating. She was very specific when she said she wouldn't be attending any parent teacher conferences or discussions when Erik had issues at school. It was his responsibility. If he had to repeat a grade, "he'd have no one to blame but himself." That said, Erik and his mother were extremely close. She was a devoted  and committed mother.  She found the joy and humor if life. Having a role model like his mom has helped him raising his two daughters.  Erik says one important lesson he learned from his mom is  "she was present. She was not 'unavailable' when she was physically present." With all the distractions that we have in life now, this one memory of his mother really helps him with his girls. They are his priority when they're together. Looking back, Erik recalls how his parents fostered self reliance and individuality. His mother taught english at night to help others who wanted to empower themselves.   She often worked with bartenders, cashiers and workers who hoped to get a business degree and  change their lives.

This episode replay from July, 2025 has a special addition to it discussing ways we might avoid controversies like the recent one regarding a disqualification in high school track that had a very significant impact on an entire team. If you've got a topic to share that will benefit youth T&F, contact David Mitchell here.

Pat, my guest's mom, grew up in Washington state. Because her parents had divorced wen Pat was a little girl, Pat spent the school year with her mother on the coast of Washington and summers with her father in the eastern part of the state. Pat learned independence starting at the early age of five years old as her parents  put her on a train by herself, back and forth across the state.  This part of Shannon's journey begins with her mom's Sock Monkey and it's opened up a world of learning and inspiration. Incase you're not familiar with what a sock monkey is, it's a  toy for young and old.  Stuffed Sock Monkeys were very popular in the 1930 and 40's, especially during The Great Depression to help uplift the spirits of children and adults. After Shannon's mother died, she came across a Stuffed Sock Monkey in her mother's possessions. She took it home with her and it's created a life of its own, a significance that Shannon is still surprised by today. In regard to her mother Shannon says "she was a teacher by nature and a teacher by trade. In fact, Pat was a  6th grade teacher for a while in addition to a Special Education teacher. Everything was a teaching /learning experience."  Shannon, her twin sister, Cheryl, and their mother had a very close relationship. All three women have intuitive capabilities and Pat allowed Shannon to make her own mistakes.  Shannon  in her late 20's,  started to develop her own psychic abilities. And as a twin, Shannon and her sister Cheryl, have psychic abilities that they work on together from near and afar.   Shannon shares stories of all the music in their home growing up. "Mom, she was brilliant. She could play any instrument by ear you gave her. Her main instrument in our home was the piano." With an infectious laugh that Shannon most likely inherited from her mom,  my guest fills us in on how funny  her mother was. She just lit up the whole family with her witty sense of humor. Shannon Grissom is an award winning artist, author and illustrator of the book "Monkey Made of Sockies" and most recently the creator of 'Sock Monkey Oracle Cards."   - Each card is a unique painting of a sock monkey which correlates to a specific Oracle Card. What are Oracle cards? Shannon Grissom will explain all of this and share more stories of her mom  Pat. https://twitter.com/ShannonGrissom  FB Page 1.4K FB Personal 2.1K https://www.facebook.com/ShannonGrissomCreations/ YouTube 410 https://www.youtube.com/shannongrissom LinkedIn 1.1K (CENTRAL VALLEY TALK SHOW-APRIL 2022 WITH AUSTIN REED. https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannongrissom/ TikTok 95 https://www.tiktok.com/@shannongrissom IG 1.1 https://www.instagram.com/shannongrissom/   *WEBSITE https://sockmonkeyoracle.com/ "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

In this episode, I'm back with Dr. Sameena Rahman for Part 2 — and we go places most medical appointments never do. We open with PCOS, GLP-1s, peptides, and ketamine, then shift into what may be the most important hormone conversation I've had on this show: is hormone therapy actually safe for women over 60?Dr. Rahman breaks down why the original Women's Health Initiative study was mismarketed, not flawed — and how that bad marketing set back women's health by two decades. She explains how to think about the risk-benefit calculation for starting hormones later in life, and what screenings actually matter before making that call.We then get into the reality of concierge medicine — why so many doctors are leaving insurance-based practices, and what women who can't afford private care can actually do. And we close on a myth that genuinely alarmed me: the idea that women over 65 no longer need pelvic exams. Dr. Rahman sets the record straight — and explains why genitourinary syndrome menopauIn This Episode: 00:00 - Welcome Back & Recap of Part 101:20 - PCOS Explained: What It Is and Who It Affects02:50 - GLP-1s, Peptides & Ketamine: What the Evidence Actually Says05:10 - Hormone Therapy After 60: Is It Safe?07:30 - The WHI Study: Bad Marketing, Not Bad Science09:20 - Heart Health, Bone Health & Who Should Consider Starting Late11:45 - Why Doctors Are Moving to Concierge Medicine14:00 - The Insurance System Is Rigged Against Women16:05 - What to Do If You Can't Afford a Specialist17:45 - The Pelvic Exam Myth Putting Women at Risk19:15 - Genitourinary Syndrome, Vaginal Estrogen & UTI Prevention20:50 - Final Thoughts & Where to Find Dr. RahmanWant a deeper look?

Clare was born in New York City yet her parents were originally from Ukraine. Rich is a very warm and caring son. Looking back, Rich would like to have asked his mom "what she was so worried about all the time." Looking back, my guest also has regrets for his mom's lack of happiness and wellbeing. As a teen he was more concerned with himself than the welfare of his mom. In hindsight,  he wishes she had taken better care of herself- had more friends, etc. As a young girl, Clare's mother, Rich's maternal grandmother, put a lot of pressure on Clare to practice her music. Clare was a phenomenal concert pianist.  She studied piano from a young age and within a few years she suddenly quit playing the piano, defiant to her mother's constant nagging. Rich's mom was overprotected and as he says "kind of spoiled." Interestingly enough, Clare was overprotected by her own mother and then did something similar to her only son. Rich refers to it as a "constant hovering."  As a result, Rich created his own  internal world  or a world of imagination which he found at the library and through books.    A college professor recognized that Rich  showed some true talent in his poetry and encouraged him to pursue it. Today, Rich is a poet and has almost one hundred poems published in the Monmouth Review (Monmouth University) and two in the International Journal of Poetry Therapy and several in other literary publications. Twenty years since his mom's death, he looks back fondly on his memories of his mom . His memories don't rattle him as much now. He's embracing the whole picture of her life and not just the last five years that she endured Alzheimer's.  Poem#1  The Science of Medicine Poem #2  Bringing In The Tide https://www.amazon.com/Writing-Away-Demons-Creative-Transformative/dp/0878393293 Richard's forthcoming book of poetry "Constellations" due to be published late 2022.  "Constellations are our attempt to make sense of the universe. We create patterns in the sky, trying to understand what God might mean, and write our stories as if we knew. These poems are my constellations. The words are stars. May their light be a guide to find your way home." - Richard Fireman "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sameena Rahman — board-certified OBGYN, sex medicine Gynecologist, and menopause specialist — to have the conversation most women never get to have with their doctor. We cover whether hormone level testing actually matters, how to tell the difference between hormone imbalance and hormone optimization, and why a woman's libido is almost never just about one thing.Dr. Rahman breaks down the biopsychosocial framework she uses in her practice, explains why so many women in long-term relationships experience responsive — not spontaneous — desire, and gets specific about the treatments available right now for women with low libido who are bothered by it. That includes testosterone, flibanserin (Addyi), bremelanotide (Vyleesi), and a promising new topical sildenafil being prescribed at leading practices. I share my own experience with testosterone and Wellbutrin, we talk about the gender double standard in sexual medicine, and Dr. Rahman makes the case that women deserve the same range of options men have had for decades.Timestamps:00:00 - Welcome & Introduction01:35 - Who Is Dr. Sameena Rahman?02:50 - Should You Measure Your Hormone Levels?05:20 - Hormone Imbalance vs. Hormone Optimization07:10 - Why Women's Libido Is Never Just One Thing09:30 - Responsive Desire & the Incentive-Based Model11:20 - What Is Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder?13:10 - Testosterone for Women: Does It Work?15:25 - Flibanserin (Addyi) — The Pink Pill Explained17:55 - Bremelanotide (Vyleesi) — The On-Demand Option19:45 - Topical Sildenafil: The Newest Treatment for Women21:20 - Key Takeaways & Closing Thoughts Want a deeper look?

A heated South Carolina redistricting battle is exploding inside the GOP as lawmakers clash over whether to extend the session and redraw congressional maps that could reshape multiple districts—including Rep. Jim Clyburn's seat. At the same time, internal Republican divisions are on display as Senate leadership resists even debating new proposals. Nationally, the conversation shifts to rising socialist-aligned candidates gaining traction inside Democratic politics, sparking debate over ideology, messaging, and party direction.

Today's political cycle is packed with escalating state-level redistricting battles, renewed economic optimism tied to strong labor indicators, and intensifying national debate over immigration, public safety policy, and ideological shifts inside both major parties. From South Carolina map fights to broader conversations about governance, justice policy, and party direction, the political landscape is sharply divided and moving fast.
