Lionel shares his intense personal history with voting, emphasizing that he loves to vote, but warns listeners to check the law before posting pictures of their ballot, as this is illegal in many states.

In this episode of the Workforce Connections Podcast, we meet Anisa Stechert, a Licensed Master Social Worker and psychedelic integration therapist at Nushama in New York City. Born in Las Vegas, Anisa moved to Florida at age 11 but has always considered Nevada home, with fond memories of Red Rock, Mount Charleston, and the YMCA swim team. She earned her B.A. in English in West Palm Beach and began her career as a Title I secondary English teacher, working with students facing trauma and systemic barriers. That experience shaped her passion for people's stories and led her to nonprofit leadership roles supporting adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse, followed by research and policy work with the New York City Mayor's Office of Criminal Justice. Anisa went on to earn her MSW at Columbia University, focusing on advanced generalist practice and program development.Today, Anisa brings her lived experience, research background, and clinical training to her role at Nushama, where she helps patients undergoing ketamine-assisted therapy. She emphasizes that while ketamine provides a neurological “reset,” the true transformation comes through integration, the reflective process of meaning-making after treatment. She recently launched Mythnetics, a Nevada-based consulting practice that maps modern diagnoses to archetypal journeys, reframing them as invitations to healing. Nushama has engaged Mythnetics as it expands into Miami, where Anisa will play a leading role, with future plans to return her work to Nevada. During her recent visit, she connected with state leaders at the Governor's Office of Economic Development, the Vegas Chamber, LVGEA, and UNLV Economic Development to explore how her innovative approach could serve the community.Outside of work, Anisa finds grounding in yoga, reading, writing, creating botanical teas and essential oil blends, and long walks with her golden retriever, Annie Marie. Her advice to young people is simple but profound: pursue training, but more importantly, do your own inner work. Face your shadows, cultivate humility, and build authenticity, because guiding others through change requires first walking through it yourself.Nushama:https://nushama.com/

It's Monday! Sam and Emma are joined by Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter to preview the first round of major elections after the Trump/Musk regime's DOGE overhaul. First, they run through updates on Trump's tariffs, a return of stagflation, the rejection of Mike Waltz, the conviction of Marine Le Pen, DOGE's Social Security crash, RFK's gutting of infection disease and HIV/AIDS policy, Tesla protests, Tesla fires, Iran's response to Trump, and the Senate GOP's budget push, before expanding on Trump's authoritarian crackdown on migrants and watching Elon attempt to rally a Wisconsin crowd of sycophants. Dave Weigel then joins, reflecting on the rapid radicalization of the race for the last seat Wisconsin Supreme Court since the injection of over $20 million of Elon Musk's money, going from the culmination of a decade-long battle by Wisconsin Democrats to break down the GOP gerrymander to a full-scale (in Elon's words) battle for the “future of civilization.” After expanding on the more personal stakes Elon Musk has in the makeup of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, and why, despite that, the messaging has almost entirely centered on supporting Trump's agenda, Weigel, Sam, and Emma shift to the upcoming special elections in Florida, as they unpack the fear the GOP is facing over their dwindling margins over the last few months, highlighting some particularly brutal campaigning from Democrat Josh Weil against “unhinged,” “anti-American” Randy Fine, and the importance of tying the Right to Musk's anti-Medicaid, anti-Social Security agenda. Wrapping up, Dave touches on the potential GOP response if these margins continue to shrink, and how DOGE has allowed them to change their messaging. And in the Fun Half: Emma tackles the Trump/Musk agenda of boosting the immigration of *white* South Africans to the US, unpacks the Working Family Party's endorsement of four candidates for New York City Mayor, and watches Zohran Mamdani continue to absolutely nail his messaging campaign. The MR Team also touches on Vivian Wilson's appearance with Hasan, growing regret from MAGA-voting federal workers, before taking a few calls to unpack Trump's Greenland push, the devastating impact of Trump's authoritarian crackdown on DACA Dreamers, and Canada's Mark Carney, plus, your IMs!

After news this weekend that Columbia student and permanent legal resident Mahmoud Khalil was arrested by ICE agents, hosts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord explain the petition filed from his lawyer and the significance of his case as a harbinger of things to come, as a hearing is set over the effort to deport him. Then, they shift focus to the Trump administration's continued attacks on law firms and universities themselves, after the president cut federal funding to Columbia, and Georgetown was rebuked by the DC US Attorney for teaching principles related to diversity, equity and inclusion. Last up, Andrew and Mary review the latest in the Eric Adams case, with a shocking court filing containing texts from prosecutors, and they break down a few cases making their way through the courts right now: some of which have been touched by SCOTUS, others likely on their way to the High Court.Want to listen to this show without ads?
