#LeoFinelli #TheNutcrackersWorld #NutcrackerBook #KidsBooks #ChildrensBooks #PictureBook #ReadAloud #WinterBooks #HolidayBooksForKids #MulticulturalKidsBooks #HanukkahBooks #KwanzaaBooks #WinterSolstice #LunarNewYear #StorycomicPresents In this episode of Storycomic Presents, I'm joined by Leo Finelli, the author and photo-illustrator of The Nutcracker's World—a fresh, kid-friendly take on the classic Nutcracker story that widens the spotlight to include multiple winter holidays. Alongside Clara's magical journey, Leo builds in a “world of winter traditions,” weaving in symbols and celebrations connected to Hanukkah, Christmas, the Winter Solstice, Kwanzaa, and Lunar New Year.  We talk about what made Leo want to create his own Nutcracker version (a dream he's held since childhood), how he approached adapting a public-domain classic while keeping the heart of the 1892 ballet, and why he chose photo-collage illustrations—including photographing neighbors, local dancers, and friends to bring the cast to life.  Leo also shares how his storytelling connects to his other creative work, including his podcast Generation Change with Leo Finelli, where he spotlights young voices and changemakers.    The Title sequence was designed and created by Morgan Quaid.

Kaito picked up a strange decoration that shone blue.Ja: 「これ、面白そうじゃない？」En: "Doesn't it look interesting?"Ja: 「でも、これは家の伝統的な飾りじゃないし…」遥は少し考え込みます。En: "But it's not one of our traditional decorations..." Haruka pondered for a moment.Ja: しかし、海斗の笑顔を見ていると、少し心が揺れました。En: Yet, seeing Kaito's smile, her heart wavered a little.Ja: 「新しいことを取り入れるのもいいかな？」彼女は少しだけ思います。En: "Maybe it's good to incorporate something new?" she thought slightly.Ja: 市場を回り、たくさんの飾りを見ましたが、まだ決めかねていました。En: They wandered around the market, viewing many decorations, but were still undecided.Ja: そんな時、目を引く一つの大きな飾りがありました。En: Just then, a large, eye-catching decoration stood out.Ja: 色鮮やかな模様が特徴で、普通の飾りとは一味違うものでした。En: It featured vibrant patterns and had a unique flair unlike any ordinary decorations.Ja: 「これ、すごくない？」海斗はその飾りを指差しました。En: "Isn't this amazing?" Kaito pointed to the decoration.Ja: 遥も興味を持ちました。En: Haruka was intrigued, too.Ja: 「確かに…すごい。でも、これを買うと、他の伝統的な物は買えなくなるね」En: "Indeed... It's impressive. But if we buy this, we won't be able to get other traditional items."Ja: しばらくの間、二人は飾りの前で静かに考えていました。En: For a while, the two stood quietly in front of the decoration, thinking.Ja: そこへ市場のおばさんが話しかけてきました。En: It was then that a market lady approached them.Ja: 「これは特別な飾りよ。ぜひ、家族の伝統に取り入れてみて。」En: "This is a special decoration. You should definitely consider incorporating it into your family traditions."Ja: その言葉に遥は何かを感じ、決心しました。En: Those words stirred something in Haruka, and she made up her mind.Ja: 「これにしよう。この美しい飾りで、新しい年を始めよう。」En: "Let's go with this one. We'll start the new year with this beautiful decoration."Ja: 海斗もうなずきました。En: Kaito nodded in agreement.Ja: 「そうだね、きっといい年になるよ！」En: "Yeah, I'm sure it will be a great year!"Ja: 家に帰り、遥はその飾りを部屋に飾りました。En: Back home, Haruka placed the decoration in her room.Ja: 家族もその新しい飾りを気にいり、いつもとは少し違う新年を喜びました。En: Her family also liked the new decoration and enjoyed a slightly different New Year.Ja: その夜、満足そうに窓越しに雪を眺め、遥は思いました。「新しいこと、いいかもしれない」。En: That night, gazing out the window at the snow, Haruka thought, "Trying new things might be good."Ja: 彼女は自分の決断に自信を持ち、伝統と創造力を混ぜ合わせることの大切さを学びました。En: She felt confident in her decision and learned the importance of blending tradition with creativity.Ja: 新しい年が向こうに待っていました。En: A new year awaited just around the corner.

Merry Christmas! Today's episode of Bri Books 'BriCember' is an honest and loving reflection on the holiday season, grief, and where we meet in the middle. In this episode, we reflect on the experiences of people who are sitting with parental loss (or any loss TBH) during the holiday season. I'll be sharing my own reflections on my holiday memories with my mother, the feeling of an invisible missing 'seat at the table' that we may notice during this time of year, the power of reliving and remaking traditions, grieving the holidays and fantasies that never were, and the glimmer of light that's visible in our shared memories.  Listen to my Mother's Day episode of Bri Books inspired by my mother, Michele Jimerson.

Christmas is a beautiful time of the year, but it can also be a melting pot of triggers, emotions, stress, leading to very dysregulated nervous systems.. which can lead to poor choices or even some self sabotage. Me and a host of other beautiful previous guests, experts and people who have made it through these times have got your back. For the 25 days of Christmas I will be posting 25 mini episodes with a tip every single day to help get you through.To do one of the HIQA challenges, private coaching or retreats go to www.iquitalcohol.com.au Hosted on Acast.

Fluent Fiction - Serbian: Rekindling Christmas: A Journey of Memories and New Traditions Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/sr/episode/2025-12-23-23-34-02-sr Story Transcript:Sr: Снег је прекрио Аду Циганлију, а удаљени звукови града губили су се у тишини.En: The snow had covered Ada Ciganlija, and the distant sounds of the city were lost in the silence.Sr: Милан и Весна полако су корачали љуштећи летаргију коју је зима носила уз реку Саву.En: Milan and Vesna walked slowly, shedding the lethargy that winter brought along the Sava River.Sr: Милан је био мислима далеко, док је Весна покушавала да се носи са осећањем губитка.En: Milan was far away in his thoughts, while Vesna tried to cope with the feeling of loss.Sr: Њихова мајка је недавно преминула, а празници више нису имали исту топлину.En: Their mother had recently passed away, and the holidays no longer held the same warmth.Sr: "Мислим да је време да вратимо наше старе божићне традиције", рекао је Милан, прекидајући тишину.En: "I think it's time to bring back our old Christmas traditions," Milan said, breaking the silence.Sr: "Она би то желела.En: "She would have wanted that."Sr: "Весна је уздахнула, тугом притиснувши своје срце.En: Vesna sighed, her heart heavy with sorrow.Sr: "Милан, не можда то није добра идеја.En: "Milan, maybe that's not a good idea.Sr: Време је да створимо нове успомене.En: It's time to create new memories."Sr: "Милан је био упоран, али мека линија упорности у његовом гласу натерала је Весну да се замисли.En: Milan was persistent, but the soft line of persistence in his voice made Vesna reflect.Sr: "Зашто све ново?En: "Why everything new?Sr: Зашто не бисмо сачували старо, барем делимично?En: Why don't we preserve the old, at least partially?"Sr: "Како су се шетали, слике из детињства почеле су да им плове свешћу.En: As they walked, childhood images began to drift into their consciousness.Sr: Присетили су се како су украшавали јелку, како су скијали низ мали брежуљак, и како су њихова мајка и бака спремале врући чај с циметом док снег пада.En: They remembered decorating the Christmas tree, skiing down a small hill, and their mother and grandmother preparing hot cinnamon tea while the snow fell.Sr: "Погледај ово место", рече Милан, показујући на језеро прекривено ледом.En: "Look at this place," said Milan, pointing to the lake covered with ice.Sr: "Сећаш се кад смо ту пецали и упознали нове пријатеље сваке године?En: "Do you remember when we used to fish here and meet new friends every year?"Sr: "Весна је застала, срце јој се стегнуло, али је осетила топлину у успоменама.En: Vesna paused, her heart tightened, but she felt warmth in the memories.Sr: "Да, сећам се.En: "Yes, I remember."Sr: "Убрзо, ниједно од њих више није желело раскид са прошлошћу.En: Soon, neither of them wanted to sever ties with the past.Sr: Одлучност у Милановим очима нестајала је, а Весна је видела нову перспективу.En: The resolve in Milan's eyes faded, and Vesna saw a new perspective.Sr: Сетила се како су за Бадње вече палили бадњак и певали божићне песме.En: She recalled how they would burn the Yule log and sing Christmas carols on Christmas Eve.Sr: "Можда можемо да комбинујемо", предложила је Весна.En: "Maybe we can combine," Vesna suggested.Sr: "Не морамо да се држимо сваке традиције, али можда можемо задржати неке, на наш начин.En: "We don't have to stick to every tradition, but maybe we can keep some, in our own way."Sr: "Милан се насмејао, олакшан.En: Milan laughed, relieved.Sr: "Баш то, желим да нас уједињавају.En: "Exactly, I want them to unite us.Sr: Ма какви били, стари или нови.En: Old or new, whatever they are."Sr: "И тако, док снег је наставио да пада, Милан и Весна пронашли су компромис.En: And so, as the snow continued to fall, Milan and Vesna found a compromise.Sr: Одлучили су да сваке године за Божић поздраве прошлост док стварају нове успомене.En: They decided to greet the past every Christmas while creating new memories.Sr: Успомене које ће их подсећати на љубав и на топлину која никад неће нестати.En: Memories that would remind them of the love and warmth that would never fade.Sr: Схватили су да, као и зима што доноси снег, су и традиције обликоване веком и временом, увек нове, увек другачије, али увек припадају њима.En: They realized that, just as winter brings snow, traditions are shaped by century and time, always new, always different, but always belonging to them.Sr: И тако су закорачили даље, лагано и са осмехом, у снежну будућност.En: And so they stepped further, gently and with a smile, into a snowy future.

Today, we're focusing on how we can consciously make the holidays meaningful for ourselves, even if old traditions or people are no longer around. Together, we'll explore how to release expectations, how to create soul-nourishing rituals, and how to experience connection in new and supportive ways.Here's what this episode will offer you:You'll learn how to let go of inherited or outdated holiday expectations that no longer fit who you are.You'll discover simple, uplifting rituals you can create for yourself—rituals that bring comfort, meaning, and joy.You'll explore how connection can be built beyond traditional family structures, including spiritual and soul-level support.Reimagining the holidays isn't about erasing the past or dismissing memories. It's about choosing how you want to feel now. When you consciously create moments of intention, you send a powerful message to your heart and nervous system: "I am allowed to feel safe, celebrated, and whole."Connection doesn't always arrive in the form we expect. Sometimes it comes quietly—through shared energy, through moments of synchronicity, or through a sense of unseen support.Know, too, that your spirit is always connected—to divine support, loving ancestors, guides, and unseen allies. Let this season be about receiving support in new ways, from unexpected places.Thank you for being here and for honoring yourself in this moment.BlessingMay your holidays—and your life—be filled with light, joy, and gentle new beginnings.InvitationShare this episode with someone who gives deeply and might need the reminder that their wholeness is a gift.

Send us a textThe “holiday season”  is filled with traditions at every turn. While they anchor us and provide familiarity and predictability, they can also be the source of stress and trigger deep sadness and grief. However, because they create a sense of belonging, gradually introducing new activities can maintain the togetherness and provide needed support for healing. Joy and sadness coexist during the holidays while grieving a loss. The answer to this paradox could be in creating new traditions. It requires great creativity and innovation. Our Founder, Dr. Mary Ellen Collins, gives us an example of both while sharing a personal dilemma for the Thanksgiving holiday. ResourcesPodcast Episode highlights a blog by Mary Ellen Collins:   https://www.motherlessdaughtersministry.com/2022/11/23/create-a-family-thanksgiving-starting-a-new-tradition-in-the-face-of-loss/Want to learn more about our New Connections and conversation Circles?  https://www.motherlessdaughtersministry.com/services/https-www-motherlessdaughtersministry-com-services-online-connections-conversations/. Ways to support MDM financially: https://www.motherlessdaughtersministry.com/giving/Motherless Daughters Ministry is a 501(c) (3) non-profit that depends on the generous support of donations from listeners like you.  To donate or sign up for our newsletter and more resources, visit our website atwww.motherlessdaughtesministry.com  Support the showThanks for listening!

Traditions shape who we are. In Exodus, God established a new tradition through the Passover—a reminder of both His judgment and His mercy. In this sermon, Pastor Brent walks through the tenth plague, the institution of the Passover, and how this moment points directly to Jesus Christ, our true Passover Lamb.

Fast 5 at 5-ish - Calculated leaks, new traditions, BS ''I'm Sorry'' claims by Ed Lane

College football is inching closer to a collective bargaining model. And with it comes big changes: transfer limits, regulated agents, and incentive-based contracts. But will that just bring back the bag men? We break it down. The NFL sold NFL Media, including NFL Network and RedZone, to ESPN in exchange for equity. But there's one problem…Trump could still block the deal. Plus:  • MLB's “Speedway Classic” in Bristol was a total disaster. Think Fyre Fest, but with bunless hot dogs and no cheese for nachos.  • A Portland Pickles “fan” hits a home run and the internet smells a work.  • Brewers manager Pat Murphy keeps pancakes and pizza slices in his pants.  • The WNBA has a dildo problem and we're officially in weird territory.  • Ohio wants to kill prop bets.  • Smelling salts are banned in the NFL.  • And tennis gets its own reality dating show at the US Open.

This week on the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch is joined by some family for a bear hunting conversation.  The family guests are his younger cousins Jacob, Josh, and Isaac Mengel, who've recently begun a journey of starting their own bear hunt tradition at their cabin in northern PA.  Previously their camp did not have a consistent tradition of hosting a bear hunt, and the times it did turned into solo endeavors.  For the last four hunting seasons, they have started their mission to learn how to bear hunt their historic hunting grounds, and how to do it with a group.  The guys share their experiences of how they got started, the obstacles along the way, the mess ups, and the successes, including Isaac's first bear harvested from a drive with only five people!  This conversation sheds light on perspective from new bear hunters and how they overcame the intimidation factor of hunting a new species in a tough environment.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Traditions have to start somewhere. I was present at the birth of a new tradition for a bunch of fellow Okies living in Kansas involving a favorite food from our home state.
