Sara Lynne George is an accomplished freelance writer and published author renowned for her insightful books on trauma and toxic relationships, notably "Don't You Dare Text Him Back: Toxic Relationship Recovery," "I've Never Been to France, She/Her," and "I Ma OHW: The Bipolar Poet." Her writings have deeply resonated with many, especially in categories dealing with trauma and relationships. Sarah's unique perspective is drawn from extensive personal experiences, including overcoming trauma bonding and confronting the challenges of bipolar disorder. Episode Summary:Host Myrna Young engages with Sara Lynne George in a deep-dive discussion on the elusive concept of trauma bonding. Sara, who has herself overcome significant personal traumas, shares her experiences about addiction, navigating the challenging waters of high-end escorting, and surviving toxic relationships. Together, they dissect the signs of trauma bonding, distinguish it from genuine love, and explore the psychological underpinnings that make such bonds so hard to break.Sara elaborates on how past traumas, like sexual abuse, can shape adult relationships, leading many into cycles of toxic, addictive love. Sara provides a strategic guide to breaking free from such unhealthy attachments. This episode delves into her journey of addressing bipolar disorder, coping mechanisms gone awry, and reclaiming self-identity. Key Takeaways:Trauma bonding is an addictive attachment where individuals, despite abuse, feel reliant on their partner for emotional understoodness.Distinguishing love from codependency is crucial; needing someone differs vastly from desiring someone in a healthy relationship.Childhood trauma, especially sexual abuse, can persistently influence adult life, manifesting in self-deprecating choices and toxic relationship dynamics.Overcoming trauma bonds involves cutting off contact and redefining self-worth outside of the toxic relationship context.Mental health support and therapy can play pivotal roles in addressing underlying issues like bipolar disorder, leading to more stable, fulfilling lives.NordVPNGet your Exclusive NordVPN deal here → go to  https://nordvpn.com/transform Podcast: Zuzu: All Grown Up To advertise on our podcast, visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/TransformyourMindor email kriti@youngandprofiting.com See this video on The Transform Your Mind YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@MyhelpsUs/videosTo see a transcripts of this audio as well as links to all the advertisers on the show page https://myhelps.us/Follow Transform Your Mind on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/myrnamyoung/Follow Transform Your mind on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063738390977Please leave a rating and review on iTunes https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/transform-your-mind/id1144973094 https://podcast.feedspot.com/personal_development_podcasts/

Steve Bingham, a leader in public engagement and the co-founder of Public Engagement Associations, joins the podcast to discuss his book, "It's Never Been a Level Playing Field," which tackles the pervasive myths surrounding racial equality in America. He emphasizes the need for systemic change across various sectors, particularly in education, housing, and the justice system, highlighting that racial disparities continue to affect opportunities and outcomes for African Americans. Bingham shares personal experiences that shaped his understanding of race and community engagement, illustrating how his journey has informed his work. He advocates for actionable solutions, such as implementing universal early childhood education and reforming local zoning laws to create more equitable communities. Throughout the conversation, Bingham stresses the importance of ongoing activism and education to address the deep-rooted issues of systemic racism and promote meaningful progress.With a wealth of experience in public engagement, Steve Bingham discusses the critical issues surrounding systemic racism and societal inequity in America. His career, spanning over two decades, includes facilitating numerous public engagement projects and addressing complex community issues such as affordable housing and transportation. Bingham's insights are rooted in both his professional expertise and personal experiences, including the profound impact of growing up in an all-white town and later embracing a diverse community in Washington, D.C. This journey ultimately inspired him to write his book, "It's Never Been a Level Playing Field," where he confronts eight racial myths that persistently shape public perception and policy.In this enlightening conversation, Bingham unpacks these myths, starting with the pervasive belief that America offers an equal playing field for all. He shares compelling data illustrating the stark realities faced by African Americans in education, employment, and justice, demonstrating how these disparities are deeply ingrained in societal structures. For instance, he notes that black adults earn less than their white counterparts at every educational level, revealing the systemic barriers that continue to impede progress. Bingham emphasizes the urgency of addressing these issues, not only to foster understanding but also to motivate action towards systemic change. He underscores the importance of recognizing the historical context of racial disparities and encourages listeners to engage in active dialogue about race and privilege.Beyond raising awareness, Bingham advocates for practical solutions to rectify systemic injustices. He discusses the need for comprehensive reforms in education, housing, and the justice system, proposing initiatives like universal pre-K programs and inclusive zoning laws to promote equity. His emphasis on local activism resonates throughout the episode, as he believes that meaningful change often starts within communities. Bingham's message is clear: everyone has a role to play in dismantling systemic racism and fostering a more equitable society. The episode serves as both a call to action and a source of inspiration for those seeking to understand and address the complexities of race in America.Takeaways: Systemic racism persists in America, impacting various sectors and perpetuating inequality. Transforming local policies on housing and education can lead to greater equity. Understanding our historical context is essential for addressing racial disparities today. Encouraging community engagement is crucial for fostering dialogue and promoting change. Support for comprehensive educational programs can significantly benefit Black children and youth. The fight for justice, housing, and education requires simultaneous efforts across all levels.

Wayne emphasizes the need for transparency, honesty, and gathering accurate information to fulfill the role effectively. He shares insights on navigating the delicate balance between supporting decisions and expressing personal disagreements, all while ensuring the smooth functioning of the organization. Tune in to gain valuable insights and practical tips for middle managers aiming to create a strong heartbeat within their teams and organizations. Key Takeaways 1.

Balance between supporting decisions and expressing personal opinions: Managers must strike a delicate balance between aligning with leadership decisions and expressing their personal disagreements, all while maintaining their role as effective communicators and leaders. 6.

They suggest that organizations need to understand their employees' needs before implementing return to office policies, rather than relying on perks like foosball tables or bring-your-dog-to-work day. Listeners will gain insight into how to navigate this great mismatch and create a successful hybrid work environment. Key Takeaways The challenges of returning to the office after remote work due to the pandemic. Polarization between organizations that want employees back in the office and employees who prefer remote work. Pilot over policy. Return to office was always going to be a challenge, and it's important to be flexible and adapt plans as needed.

It's Never Been a Level Playing Field: Overcoming 8 Racial Myths to Even the Field by Steve Brigham https://www.amazon.com/Never-Been-Level-Playing-Field/dp/B0D785ZDC9/ In It's Never Been a Level Playing Field, the author embarks on a journey to dissect and challenge the deeply ingrained myths that continue to perpetuate racial inequality in America. Each chapter delves into a specific myth, from the fallacy of equal opportunity to the enduring inequalities in housing, education, and justice systems. In this book, you will: Uncover the pervasive influence of White-oriented systems and beliefs that have shaped American society for centuries. Understand the historical structures, both legal and cultural, that have upheld White advantage and supremacy. Dismantle the illusion of a level playing field and expose systemic biases that disadvantage African Americans in housing, education, and justice systems. Learn how these myths intersect and perpetuate racial inequity and injustice in modern America. Discover a roadmap for systemic change and transformative policies to build a more equitable future. It's Never Been a Level Playing Field is a call to action for all Americans to understand race issues in America and contribute to the fight for equality. Read this book and join the movement toward a more just and inclusive America. It's Never Been a Level Playing Field offers a profound exploration of the deeply entrenched issues of race, privilege, and systemic inequality that have shaped the fabric of our nation. With keen insight, Brigham dissects the myths that perpetuate racial disparities and presents bold ideas for dismantling these longstanding injustices. To those in pursuit of John Lewis' good trouble, this book stands as a vital roadmap for understanding the roots of racial injustice and a compelling call to action for all of us to take part in building a more just and equitable society. A beloved community." State Delegate Jazz Lewis, Maryland House of Delegates, 24th District (Prince George's County) Comprehensive and bold, It's Never Been a Level Playing Field challenges readers to rethink racial inequality in America. Critiquing the fallacy of individual meritocracy, the book exposes the dirty underbelly of White supremacy and domination at the heart of the American project and its consequences for Black Americans. From urban renewal and redlining to the dumping of toxic waste in Black communities, Brigham shows how White Americans and institutions have upheld an unjust system through their action and inaction. In tracing how violent practices have endured and shape-shifted from slavery to our pretense politics, he shows why racial disparities and disadvantage persist in everything from education, health care, and criminal justice to housing and entrepreneurship—and what we can do about it. It's Never Been a Level Playing Field is sure to spark needed debate in classrooms and boardrooms, and around kitchen tables across the country. Willow S. Lung-Amam, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Urban Studies and Planning at the University of Maryland, College Park About the author Steve Brigham is a leader in the public engagement field who, for the past 24 years, has known great success as a facilitator, consultant, and designer of complex public meetings and community-building processes on critical public policy issues.

In the past decade, Steve's work and volunteer time have increasingly tackled racial equity and equitable development issues. Steve is the proud father of two bi-racial children and lives in Prince George's County, MD.

Dennis connects via Zoom with musician Greg O'Conner to talk about his debut album The Place I've Never Been and what it's been like to venture out as a solo artist after decades of writing songs and scores for TV and movies. Greg talks about what inspired him to take such a big swing in his mid-50's, the artists that inspired him like Toto, The Beach Boys, Steely Dan and Bleu, finding collaborators on Facebook and Instagram and posing on a hillside with a piano and live bull for the album's striking cover art. Greg also talks about the real-life experiences that inspired the album and videos, like being ghosted by someone he'd been dating for a while and subsequently falling in love with his fiancé, photographer Kevin Sikorski after meeting on Hinge. He also talks about his extensive work in TV and film, writing music for recent films My Home Unknown and Baby Boomer Yearbook (directed by Grease's Randal Kleiser) and TV shows like The Ben Stiller Show, The Big Gay Sketch Show and MadTV, for which he won an Emmy. Other topics include: falling in love with music at four, writing the viral song "Laura Dern" for the Independent Spirit Awards a few years back, shooting two music videos in one day in Capetown, South Africa and being closeted at USC and waiting in line outside of the Mother Lode bar in West Hollywood and being terrified someone would drive by and see him. www.GregOConnor.com

John and Craig welcome guests Quinta Brunson, Rachel Bloom and Natasha Lyonne to join them for a live benefit for Hollywood HEART. Since they cannot discuss the shows they're currently working on (strike rules!) they instead reflect on the surprising paths of their careers, how acting has influenced them as writers and directors, and how much is learned at every step of production. We're also joined by AMPTP spokesperson Nancy Sullivan to discuss our concerns with the ongoing strike, what she enjoys about her job, and why she finds it so fulfilling! Big thanks to our live audience, the staff of Dynasty Typewriter, and everyone at Hollywood Heart for putting the event together.
