Podcasts about New normal

In this first of two episodes, Julie and Savannah read your listener letters! This time, Julie reached out and asked the question, "What didn't you know about or what didn't THEY tell you?" before or as you embarked on their transgender journey. From the difficulties of dating in a post-transition world, to the switch from clothing being euphoric to the transition being euphoric, from surprise reactions at home when bedroom play and underdressing becomes more, from finding strength in unlikely places when those most loved take a step back, these letters hit the heart of the varied and individualized life experiences that may resonate with others.-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“. While both focus on the male-to-female (mtf) crossdresser, “Defining a New Normal” delves into crossdressing and relationships and “Discovering Your True Identity” looks at the individual crossdressing journey. Her latest achievements are two TEDx Talks, one entitled "Demystifying the Crossdressing Experience" and the other "13 Milliseconds: First Impressions of Gender Expression". Savannah is a male-to-female dual-gender crossdresser who is visible in the Upstate of South Carolina, active in local groups and advocating as a public speaker at LGBTQ+ conferences and workshops across the United States. At the moment, Savannah is working on more books, blogs, and projects focused on letting every crossdresser–young and mature–find their own confidence, expression, identity and voice.IG @savannahhauk | FB @savannahhauk | FB @livingwithcrossdressing | web @livingwithcrossdressing.com------JULIE RUBENSTEIN is a dedicated ally to transgender community and the certified image consultant and co-owner of Fox and Hanger.

For decades, the assumption was simple: by the time Australians reached retirement, the mortgage was gone. But that reality is changing fast.Today, more than half of Australians approaching retirement still carry housing debt—and it's reshaping how households think about superannuation, the Age Pension, and the role of the family home.In this episode, Veronica and Chris sit down with retirement specialist Harry Chemay to unpack the growing debt burden among pre-retirees and what it means for the next generation of retirees. They explore why the traditional “pay off the home before retirement” rule is breaking down, how rising property prices and refinancing behaviour have changed the way Australians use housing equity, and why more people are drawing down their super simply to clear their mortgage.Harry explains the financial trade-offs between paying off your mortgage versus preserving superannuation, and why this decision can dramatically affect long-term retirement cash flow. The conversation also dives into reverse mortgages, equity release strategies, the Age Pension means test, and why downsizing isn't always the straightforward solution many assume it to be.This episode challenges long-held assumptions about debt in retirement and highlights the need for better coordination between financial advisers, mortgage brokers, and retirement planners. Because in today's housing market, the biggest asset most Australians own—the family home—may also be the key to making retirement work.Episode Highlights01:13 – Meet Harry Chemay: Retirement and Wealth Strategy Expert01:55 – From Robo Advice Startup to Retirement Strategy Specialist03:33 – Why More Australians Are Reaching Retirement With Mortgages08:46 – Generational Shifts, Lifestyle Choices and Mortgage Refinancing10:36 – Why Retirees Are Using Super Withdrawals to Clear Housing Debt25:14 – The Trade-Off: Paying Off Your Mortgage vs Preserving Super26:22 – A Simple Cashflow Test for Retirees Carrying Mortgage Debt27:17 – Case Study: Super Withdrawal vs Equity Release Outcomes29:17 – Will Banks Start Lending More to Retirees and Older Borrowers?32:07 – Australia's $12 Trillion Housing Wealth Reality Explained38:55 – Downsizing vs Aging in Place: The Retirement Housing Debate42:04 – The Rise of New Retirement Living and Lifestyle Developments43:31 – Rising Homeownership Costs and Why Early Planning Matters46:20 – Rethinking Retirement Living: Building Your Own Community47:37 – A Real Family Story of Moving Parents Later in Life49:08 – Why Retirement Planning Needs a Holistic Advice Team52:12 – Final Takeaways on Retirement Debt, Super and HousingLinksThe growing debt burden of retiring AustraliansAbout the GuestHarry Chemay is a retirement and wealth specialist with nearly three decades of experience across financial planning, wealth management, asset consulting, fintech, and superannuation product design.

How technocracy replaced burning books with programmable compliance — and why your ability to think, speak, and dissent is now the primary target. In this raw, unfiltered Technocracy Roundtable, I'm joined by Patrick Wood, Aaron Day, and Craig Wenclewicz to expose how the war on free speech has evolved from crude deplatforming and visible strikes into something far more dangerous: an invisible, AI-driven operating system designed to control what you think, say, and believe. We map the full control stack in real time — from algorithmic throttling and shadow banning, to conversational AI that permanently rewires political beliefs, cohort targeting, bot swarms, deepfakes, debanking, the UN Global Digital Compact, and the Brussels Effect that routes around the First Amendment. This isn't theory. This is the operating system already running the digital world. We also lay out real parallel systems and local action steps you can take right now to preserve sovereign voice before the window closes.

Episode Notes On this week's episode of Orange Juice Optional, Suzanne and Michelle talk about the act of becoming — how life events ask us to shift, pivot, and rediscover who we are along the way. Change is rarely linear, and learning to move with it is part of personal growth. Together, we explore: • Navigating life transitions and redefining your “new normal” • Emotional growth through uncertainty and personal change • Mindset shifts that help you move forward with intention • Letting go of expectations while embracing transformation • Finding steadiness while life evolves around you This is a reflective conversation for anyone experiencing change, growth, or a season of becoming. Because transformation isn't about starting over, it's about evolving forward. And then…to close out this episode, the ladies share this week's ‘Something to Sip On'. ‘Something to Sip On' is a quote or saying meant to spark reflection — something to think about and carry with you until we meet again.  Cheers. Orange Juice Optional Podcast is a lifestyle and personal growth podcast centered on navigating change, emotional growth, and finding clarity through life's transitions. __ __ Mixed & Edited by Next Day Podcast info@nextdaypodcast.com

Unfortunately King Andreas is chilling out back on Amphibia with a portal that he can use to throw all of the terminators he wants at them. There’s no way they’re going to keep Cathy Coven out of his hands if he has that much power at his disposal.

In this episode, Julie and Savannah talk about the upcoming Keystone Conference in Harrisburg, PA, and how difficult it can sometimes be for some attendees (returning or first-timers) to be able to "show up" in a more extroverted fashion to get dressed up, meet people, and make connections. The conference can be overwhelming just by the sheer number of attendees and can be daunting as so many sisters are returning and meeting up with their chosen peer sister groups. Our hosts' advice is to relax, make a plan, and try to go up to at least one person a day that seems interesting!-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

If you've been waiting for the world to "get back to normal," Rafat has news: the volatility of the last few years isn't a phase—it is the new permanent baseline. Whether discussing the rise of AI or the importance of showcasing local creative energy over traditional "sun and sand" ads, Rafat's message is clear: you can outsource your tactics, but you can never outsource your vision.

Grab a coffee and join us at the holiday cottage! We're recording straight from our annual Shropshire retreat to catch up on everything happening in our creative lives right now. With the cost of living crisis changing how couples plan their big days, we dive deep into the rising trend of reduced-coverage weddings. Are these shorter, "smash and grab" days a refreshing change of pace, or do they rob us of the chance to truly connect with our couples? We also debate the modern relevance of bridal prep and detail shots - do brides really want a photo of their shoes on a tree, or are we just shooting out of fear of missing something?We're also pulling back the curtain on the very first British Wedding Film Festival! We debrief on the incredible highs of the glamorous night at the Manchester Art Gallery, the financial realities of hosting a major industry event from scratch, and the controversy of international filmmakers dominating the final shortlists. Plus, we talk through our plans and category changes for next year.Finally, we share our weekly highs and lows, featuring the magic of Victorian tintype photography, the sheer terror of M6 traffic, the sting of buying four new car tires, and a painfully relatable vent about couples treating our Zoom consultations like interviews only to ghost us afterward.Timestamps00:00 - Morning Coffee & Shropshire Holiday Vibes02:40 - Are Reduced Coverage Weddings the New Normal?07:30 - The "Smash and Grab" Reality of Short Weddings08:30 - Do Couples Actually Want Detail Shots Anymore?14:50 - The Danger of Missing Crucial Props (The Pen Story)16:35 - Shooting a Bar Mitzvah & Traffic Nightmares20:10 - Our Worst "Late to a Wedding" Stories & Box Breathing23:25 - Identity Crisis: Are We Still Calling Ourselves Photographers?25:55 - The British Wedding Film Festival Debrief33:00 - The Financial Reality of Hosting an Industry Event35:00 - The Controversy of International & Destination Winners42:20 - Highs & Lows: Victorian Tintype Photography in Shrewsbury48:30 - Highs & Lows: £650 Tyres & Toddler Colds50:10 - Why Are Couples Ghosting After Great Zoom Consultations?52:45 - Dinner Debates & Wrapping UpSay hi on Instagram @ourcreativecommuneGet a free 14 day trial of Musicbed: https://www.musicbed.com/invite/935CyThe British Wedding Film Festivalhttps://www.britishweddingfilmfestival.com/Lawson Film School: https://www.lawsonfilms.co.uk/lawson-film-schoolliamandbee.comlawsonfilms.co.uklawsonphotography.co.uk#weddingphotography #weddingvideography #filmphotography #creativepodcast #weddingindustry #ourcreativecommune Hosted on Acast.

Hohe Rabatte, neue Förderung, politische Richtungswechsel – und mittendrin die Städte. Wie gelingt Elektromobilität dort, wo sie am sichtbarsten ist: im urbanen Raum? In der neuen Episode von „eMobility Insights“ spricht electrive-Chefredakteur Peter Schwierz mit Christoph Steinkamp, Geschäftsführer von hySOLUTIONS, über Hamburg als Reallabor der Verkehrswende – und über die Frage, was andere Kommunen daraus lernen können. Hamburg steht beim Hochlauf der Elektromobilität über dem Bundesschnitt. Mehr als 43.000 E-Pkw sind unterwegs, der Anteil wächst kontinuierlich. Für Steinkamp ist das kein Zufall, sondern Ergebnis strategischer Steuerung: frühzeitiger Ausbau der Ladeinfrastruktur, klare politische Zielsetzungen und eine Verwaltung, die nicht nur reguliert, sondern selbst vorangeht. „Wir sind, was die Elektrifizierung des Pkw-Bestands angeht, über dem Bundesschnitt – und das trägt sich seit Jahren“, sagt er. Doch in der „Bubble“ der Elektromobilität ist Geduld Mangelware. Und deshalb hätte auch Steinkamp noch viel mehr erreicht: „Man denkt immer, es könnte alles schneller gehen.“ Besonders eindrucksvoll ist der Blick auf einzelne Nutzergruppen. Hamburg hat den Taximarkt konsequent elektrifiziert – mit Förderanreizen, Übergangsfristen und klaren Vorgaben. Das Ergebnis: Ein Viertel der Taxis fährt bereits elektrisch. Und das ohne Proteste! „Hättest du mich vor fünf Jahren gefragt, hätte ich mit einer großen Taxidemo gerechnet“, so Steinkamp. „Aber wir haben das kommunikativ gut begleitet – und die Branche kann rechnen.“ Auch bei Bussen, Carsharing, Hafenlogistik und sogar im Fährverkehr auf Elbe und Alster geht Hamburg elektrische Wege. Reine Batteriefähren sind bestellt, die Ladeinfrastruktur für den Schwerlastverkehr wird datenbasiert geplant und Ladehubs entstehen dort, wo sie tatsächlich gebraucht werden. Eine Erkenntnis aus Hamburg gilt für Pkw wie Lkw gleichermaßen: Nicht jede Ladesäule gehört in den öffentlichen Raum. „Wenn wir bei ‚Wünsch dir was‘ wären, würde ich Ladeinfrastruktur am liebsten nur auf halböffentlichen Flächen aufbauen – dann hätten wir den öffentlichen Raum für andere Zwecke.“ Aber das reicht natürlich insbesondere für private E-Autos nicht aus. Deshalb baut auch Hamburg – mit sechs Anbietern – weiterhin kontinuierlich aus. Gleichzeitig zeigt das Gespräch mit Christoph Steinkamp, wie fragil der Fortschritt ist. Politische Signale aus Berlin sorgen für Verunsicherung. „Warum soll ich mir jetzt ein Elektrofahrzeug zulegen, wenn gleichzeitig über Technologieoffenheit im Pkw-Verkehr gesprochen wird?“, fragt Steinkamp. Sein Appell an die Bundespolitik ist deutlich: „Im Pkw-Verkehr noch über Technologieoffenheit zu sprechen, ist nicht hilfreich – auch nicht für die deutsche Automobilwirtschaft.“ Die Hamburger Bevölkerung hat sich unterdessen mit einem erfolgreichen Volksentscheid noch ambitioniertere Klimaziele gesetzt: Klimaneutralität bis 2040. Das erhöht den Druck – und macht deutlich, dass Elektromobilität in der Hansestadt vom „Nice-to-have“ zum „New Normal“ werden muss. Nur so lässt sich der CO2-Ausstoß senken. Wie Städte regulatorisch steuern können, warum Wettbewerb bei Ladeinfrastruktur entscheidend ist, welche Rolle Parkraum spielt – und weshalb selbst Toiletten an Ladepunkten ein Thema sind – all' das beleuchtet diese Episode mit überraschender Offenheit. Eine Folge für alle, die Elektromobilität nicht nur als Technologie, sondern als kommunale Gestaltungsaufgabe verstehen. Und für alle, die wissen wollen, ob Hamburg wirklich einen Schritt voraus ist – oder einfach nur konsequenter handelt. Und darum geht es auch bei der ersten Hamburger E-Mobilitätskonferenz am 18. März, bei der Experten aus ganz Deutschland und Europa ihre Ideen für die Zukunft teilen.

Send a textSome seasons of life are meant to be intense—but temporary. We tell ourselves, I can do this for a little while, and we push through on adrenaline, determination, and grit. But what happens when that season doesn't end?In this episode, I talk about what happens when a sprint quietly becomes a marathon—and why the strategies that helped you survive short-term stress can actually start working against you over time. We're not talking about changing your circumstances. We're talking about changing how you're running your race so you don't burn out, shut down, or lose yourself in the process.If you've been feeling more irritable, exhausted, emotionally flat, foggy, or like sleep doesn't quite fix things anymore, this conversation will help you understand why—and what to do instead. I'll walk you through how to recognize marathon mode, why self-care becomes non-negotiable (not indulgent), and how to make small, sustainable shifts that protect your energy, your nervous system, and your joy.This episode is for any mom who is carrying a long season with courage—and needs permission, wisdom, and compassion to run it differently.If you'd like to get the show notes for this episode, head to: https://leighgermann.com

In this episode, Julie and Savannah chat about an important topic as it applies to gender-expansive men and their cis-female partners or spouses. So many crossdressing men hide in the shadows, revert to closeting their feminine behavior after sharing their queerdom to their partners. When partners are told, so many emotions are felt and so much understanding and support is needed for both parties. What happens when the novelty wears off? What happens when the man chooses to be smaller than they should be to avoid conflict and keep everyone comfortable? How does each partner maintain the validity of their emotions while not taking agency away from each other?

In this episode, Savannah reads a letter to Julie about late-blooming male-to-female crossdresser Olivia who has come to the realization that their feminine side might want to create a wish list for herself. The idea of giving herself permission to want something for her feminine side is new and seemingly a novel concept. Is this typical for a late-blooming CD? Is it too near adjacent to the Pink Fog? Using a wishlist list is a perfect way to organize, find your style, be mindful about what you want vs need, and a way to share with others who are interested in giving that femme side of you a supporting gift.-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

A resilient jobs report has sparked a relief rally, but Blake Millard warns that the era of easy gains in big tech is likely over as the labor market normalizes. Millard suggests that market leadership is shifting toward undervalued sectors like financials, industrials, and energy while the Trump administration reshapes global trade. He emphasizes that investors must diversify or risk being left behind by the evolving market rotation.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Life doesn't prepare you for what happens after your parents are gone.In this episode, Kenny, Taylor, and I have a raw, vulnerable conversation about life after losing parents, and what it means to redefine “normal” when there's no one left above you anymore.For me, it's the reality of having no parents and no grandparents left. For them, it's navigating life knowing that safety net doesn't exist the way it once did. We talk about the quiet moments no one warns you about: the grief that shows up randomly, the weight of becoming the elder, the responsibility that shifts without asking, and the question so many people are afraid to say out loud—now what?This isn't a clinical conversation about grief. It's real life. We talk about love, loss, legacy, fear, gratitude, and how death changes the way you see time, family, and yourself.If you've lost a parent. If you've lost both parents. If you're trying to figure out who you are after loss. Or if you're living in that strange in-between space where nothing feels the same anymore...This conversation is for you.Not enough people talk honestly about death. We are.

Modeugerne brager løs rundt omkring i verden. Selv om de fleste af os ikke er inviteret med indenfor, giver begivenhederne os mulighed for at snage i, hvad de store modehuse stiller op med tidens kaos. Samtidigt kommer moden og skønheden under både kærlig og kritisk behandling i flere værker, som udkommer netop nu. Om lidt lander en ny dokumentar, hvor Tyra Banks tager bladet fra munden og indrømmer, at de nok gik lidt for vidt, dengang de fjerne unge pigers tænder, hår og værdighed i ’Americas Next Topmodel. Også i Ryan Murphys nye serie ’The Beauty’ får vi lov til at kigge med, mens eksploderende supermodeller bliver omdrejningspunktet for en vaskeægte modemassakre. Alt dette og mere til taler vi om i denne uges afsnit af Poptillægget. PANEL Fuad Gumas, model og modekender. Anbefaling: Se serien. ‘The New Normal’. Esben Weile Kjær, kunstner.

What does it mean to bring home a child whose breathing depends on a piece of medical equipment? For many families, the idea of a trach is terrifying long before it ever becomes reality. And even after, the fear doesn't magically disappear.In this episode of The Rare Life, Alyssa is joined by Ashley Caywood to talk honestly about life with a trach and ventilator. We hear from parents who knew this decision was coming and from others who were blindsided by it, from families who hoped it would be temporary and those who've had to come to terms with permanence. We talk about hypervigilance, sleep deprivation, the impossible responsibility of keeping your child breathing at home, and the strange duality of fear and gratitude that so many trach parents carry at the same time.If you're facing trach conversations now, living with one already, or trying to understand what this life actually looks like beyond the hospital walls, this episode offers realism, validation, and the reminder that you're not alone in holding all of this.Thank you to the generous sponsors for today's episode, Imagine Pediatrics.⁠And don't forget to join us on Feb 1st to kick off our FUEL The Rare Life fundraiser!Links: Learn more about Imagine Pediatrics.Listen to Ep 139: In-Home Nursing.Listen to Ep 90: Living with Sleep Deprivation.Join The Rare Life newsletter andnever miss an update!Fill out our contact form to joinupcoming discussion groups!Follow us on Instagram @the_rare_life!Donateto the podcast or Contactme about sponsoring an episode.Follow the Facebook page.

A new World Weather Attribution study finds recent blistering heat was five times more likely due to global warming. As south-eastern states brace for another severe heatwave and soaring temperatures above 40 degrees, experts caution that heat poses serious health risks and can worsen bushfire conditions.

In this second of two episodes, Julie asks Savannah about the journey she and other gender-expansive persons have experienced from a tender age of 5-years-old, to the draw to the feminine, to the resulting shame and guilt one might experience during their secretive discovery of self, to accepting and fianlly becoming expansive in a still-gender-rigid world.

Burnout isn't just being tired — and it's not a personal failure.In this episode of Girls Gone Wellness, we're joined by Dr. Emily Bennett, ND to unpack what burnout actually is, why rest and vacations don't always fix it, and why so many high-achieving, purpose-driven people feel like they're failing when the system is the real problem.This conversation goes beyond stress management and self-care clichés. We talk about burnout as an occupational and nervous-system issue, how modern work culture and constant availability are quietly impacting health, and why people who care the most about their work are often the most vulnerable.In this episode, we cover:What burnout actually is (and how it's different from stress or overwhelm)Why vacations and time off don't always workThe three core components of burnoutWhy high-achieving and purpose-driven people are especially at riskWhat's happening in the body and nervous system during burnoutHow modern work culture, constant productivity, and “always-on” expectations contributePractical, realistic steps you can take if you're feeling burnt out right nowThis is a grounding, honest conversation about work, health, and learning to stop treating exhaustion like a personal flaw.Follow along with Dr. Bennett on Instagram and her Website For more information & to join the Confident Clinician check it out here!

What if God were to use you to change your neighborhood or even your community?

Cheryl shares the origin story of the podcast, how it has evolved over time, and why storytelling remains at the center of her mission: helping people feel less alone, more informed, and more empowered to live well alongside chronic illness.Cheryl then walks through nine core themes that keep resurfacing across these conversations, including: validation and belonging, coping with uncertainty, the power of community, navigating medication decisions, redefining “normal,” and why self-compassion, acceptance, identity, and joy still matter after diagnosis. This episode is an honest reflection on what it really means to “thrive” with arthritis, not as a one-size-fits-all outcome, but as a deeply personal, evolving process rooted in realistic hope, credible information, and human connection. Episode at a glance:01:31 The Origin Story of the Podcast06:27 Challenges and Reflections on Running the Podcast13:50 Nine Core Themes from 200 Episodes14:04 Theme 1: You Are Not Alone17:12 Theme 2: The Challenge of Uncertainty20:28 Theme 3: The Power of Community22:41 Theme 4: The Importance of Credible Education26:35 Theme 5: Emotional Medication Decisions29:01 Theme 6: Redefining Normal30:52 Theme 7: Acceptance and Self-Compassion32:58 Theme 8: RA as a Whole Life Condition33:59 Theme 9: Identity, Purpose, and JoyMedical disclaimer: All content found on Arthritis Life public channels was created for generalized informational purposes only.

The count is now up to 18 scholarship players that have entered their name in the transfer portal from Ohio State, with former 5-star WR Quincy Porter being the latest addition. It seems alarming on the surface, but this is the new normal in college football. Just look around at other programs and you will see this is true. In fact, there are some NIL/transfer situations in college football that make OSU's situation seem tame by comparison. Specifically, we're talking about what's transpiring with Washington QB Demond Williams, plus Missouri DE Damon Wilson II. Dave Biddle and Matt Baxendell tackle that and much more on the Wednesday 5ish.

In this episode, Savannah chats with Julie about cis-female and gender-expansive MTF boyfriends or husbands where the genetic woman of the relationship prefers their male partner's feminine identity in many ways over when the male partner is presenting in his own AGAB biology. Why is it that so many gender-expansive partners exhibit personality traits that are more attractive to their partners than when presenting in male mode? From a de-stressed state of being to a more fulfilled and full confident authenticity, our feminine identities can provide us much more than just a pretty outfit for ourselfs and our partners.-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.
