Speech Dude Chris Wenger joins Emily Kircher-Morris to discuss the importance of shifting from compliance-based educational strategies to more affirming practices for neurodivergent students. They explore the significance of creating safe and regulated environments, the difference between belonging and fitting in, and the need to redefine social goals to foster authentic connections among students. They talk about the value of autonomy, community building, and understanding the unique challenges faced by high school students in the context of neurodiversity. TAKEAWAYS The shift from compliance-based strategies to affirming support is crucial for neurodivergent students. Belonging is more important than fitting in for neurodivergent individuals. Social goals should focus on authentic connections rather than masking behaviors. Autonomy in decision-making enhances both student and teacher experiences. Intersectionality plays a significant role in the experiences of neurodivergent individuals. After school clubs can foster connections between neurodivergent and neuro-normative students. Normalizing neurodivergent behaviors can enhance acceptance in schools. The DASL assessment tool focuses on strengths rather than deficits. Language used in reports can affect parent-child dynamics. The Neurodiversity University Therapist Hub is now open for you to join! Be among a group of like-minded peers in a vibrant community, where learning and sharing are front and center. We're building a world that works for all neurotypes, and we need you! Chris Wenger is a neurodivergent high school speech-language pathologist with over 20 years of experience, an international speaker, and the creator of the Dynamic Assessment of Social Emotional Learning, a strengths-based assessment designed for autistic students. He is also the founder of NeuroAffirm, a groundbreaking global directory that connects neurodivergent individuals and their families with affirming providers. Widely known as Speech Dude, Chris has built a global following of nearly one million on social media, where he shares educational and inspiring content infused with humor. His work focuses on making neuroaffirming practices more accessible while empowering educators, therapists, and families to better support neurodivergent learners.

Have you ever wondered why anxiety in children can look and feel so physical—and what we as pediatricians, parents, or caregivers can do about it? We're visiting a fan favorite from Episode #26 of Pediatric Meltdown, Dr. Lia Gaggino sits down with Dr. Colleen Cullinan, a leading pediatric psychologist, to dissect the powerful 3 B's approach: Brain, Body, and Behavior. Together, they reveal eye-opening truths about integrated behavioral health, the ways anxiety manifests in kids, and practical, actionable strategies for managing emotional meltdowns in real-time. This is not just about recognizing anxiety—it's about transforming how we support kids inside and outside the exam room. If you want to empower families, level up your clinical skills, and make a tangible difference, don't miss this conversation. This episode could change the way you think about pediatric care—forever.[00:00 - 11:35] Integrated Care Foundations: Building Partnerships in Pediatric PracticeIntegrated behavioral health bridges the gap between physical and mental health, creating seamless care experiences for families.Primary care is often the first—and sometimes only—entry point for children facing emotional or behavioral challenges.Partnerships between pediatricians and behavioral health providers increase accessibility, reduce stigma, and foster earlier intervention.The synergy and trust between pediatricians and psychology professionals leads to holistic, effective patient care.[11:36 - 15:49] The Role of Primary Care in Managing Anxiety and Emotional HealthPrimary care providers serve as trusted anchors, introducing mental health as an essential component of overall health.Familiarity with a child's history allows pediatricians to recognize subtle behavior changes and collaborate meaningfully with behavioral specialists.Normalizing physical symptoms of anxiety (like stomachaches and headaches) helps bridge conversations from medical to emotional concerns.Educating families on the inseparability of physical and emotional health empowers them to seek support without shame.[15:50 - 28:55] Anxiety Explained: The 3 B's and Practical Strategies for KidsThe "3 B's": Brain, Body, and Behavior, are interlinked—anxiety in the brain triggers body sensations, which guide behavior, often leading to avoidance.Psychoeducation is key: Emphasizing to families and youth that everyone experiences anxiety validates their feelings and reduces shame.Simple, actionable distress tolerance tools—breathing exercises, grounding techniques (like the “five senses” method), and focusing attention—can be taught in minutes during a regular visit.Providers can help children recognize “worry thoughts” and redirect their response before anxiety spirals into withdrawal or meltdown.[28:56 - 49:20] When to Escalate: Distress Tolerance, Prevention, and Team-Based SolutionsDistress tolerance techniques can bridge the gap until a child can access specialized behavioral care—or be sufficient for milder cases.Functional impairment is the marker for when anxiety moves from “manageable” to requiring traditional CBT or higher-level intervention.Exposure therapy explained: At its core, CBT for anxiety involves identifying fears and encouraging gradual, manageable exposure to them, with improvement through repetition.Advocacy for integrated behavioral health, resource sharing, and ongoing partnerships with community therapists are essential for sustainable, high-impact child mental health care.[49:21- 53:34] Dr. Lia's...

Markets continue a pattern of opening weakly, enticing buyers in the afternoon, and closing higher on the day. Markets on Tuesday completed a nice rally, breaking above a previous line of resistance. Markets will again today have a weak opening after six-straight days of advances, but we expect another round of late afternoon buying. Markets have had a 19% drop, peak to trough, followed by a 50% retracement. If you were nervous at the bottom of the decline, NOW would be a good time to shed risky investments, take profits, and rebalance your risk during these rally moments. Interest rates look to be heading back down; oil prices are also falling.    Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch the video version of this podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgzHlYeVdYM&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1&t=6s  ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "A Rare Zweig Breadth Thrust Provides Optimism" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/a-rare-zweig-breadth-thrust-provides-optimism/ ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- REGISTER FOR OUR NEXT CANDID COFFEE (5/3/25) HERE: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/events/live-chat/  ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #TakeProfits #RebalancePortfolio #ReduceRisk #MarketRally #MarketRisk #MarketNormalization #RiskOff #MarketLows #ReflexiveRally #DownsideRisk #MarketVolatility #InterestRates #OilPrices #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

Welcome to The Happy Mama Movement Podcast.This week's guest is Ilana Yahdav — a certified grief educator, storyteller, and advocate for reimagining our relationship with grief, especially during the profound identity shift of motherhood. In this deeply affirming conversation, we explore the powerful intersection between matrescence and grief, and how validating our emotions can lead to profound healing.We talk about:The transformative power of grief: Ilyana shares how the loss of her father plunged her into a decade-long journey through grief, and how discovering grief recovery changed the course of her life, helping her validate her feelings and eventually support others through their losses.Grief and matrescence as deeply intertwined: Ilyana reflects on the layered grief of becoming a mother—especially during the pandemic—and how discovering the concept of matrescence helped her finally name what she was experiencing. She emphasizes that grief is not just about death, but any significant change in life, including motherhood.Normalizing grief in motherhood: From the loss of identity to everyday transitions like a child's first steps or starting school, Ilana explains how grief is a natural part of motherhood. She highlights the importance of language, validation, and grief recovery tools in helping mothers understand and move through these complex emotions.Grieving who we were while embracing who we're becoming: Ilyana explores how we can hold both grief and gratitude—acknowledging that it's normal to mourn parts of our past selves, even while deeply loving our children and the life we've built.Leaning on community through nonlinear journeys: From motherhood to loss, Ilana reminds us that healing isn't meant to happen in isolation. We need each other. Both grief and matrescence unfold in unpredictable ways—and having a supportive village makes all the difference.If this episode resonated with you, please share it with loved ones who might need this reminder today.

She reveals the inspiration behind her book A Musculoskeletal Mystery: How to Solve Your Pelvic Floor Symptoms, outlines practical strategies for mentorship and collaboration across healthcare disciplines, and calls listeners to champion pelvic health as a public health priority throughout women's lifespan.Guest BioIngrid Harm-Ernandes, PT, DPTBackground:40 years as a physical therapist; 28+ years in pelvic healthCo-Director & Mentor, Women's Health PT Residency Program, Duke UniversityCourse Development Director, International Women's Health CoursesAuthor of A Musculoskeletal Mystery: How to Solve Your Pelvic Floor SymptomsInternational speaker, educator, and illustratorAreas of Expertise: Pelvic floor rehabilitation, orthopedic integration, interdisciplinary care, women's health through life stagesKey Topics & Timestamps00:00 – 05:00 | Origins of Pelvic Health PT Ingrid recounts the early 1990s landscape—scarce training in the U.S., skepticism from physicians, and her orthopedic foundation that shaped today's best practices.05:00 – 12:00 | Building Residency & Education How Duke launched one of the first pelvic PT residencies, the slow but steady growth of programs, and the power of “book clubs” and clinical mentoring to integrate pelvic health into standard curricula.12:00 – 20:00 | Mentorship Beyond the Discipline Strategies for new grads: start generalist, shadow diverse providers (OB-GYN, urogynecology, cardiopulmonary PT, even acupuncturists and sex therapists) to build confidence and referrals.20:00 – 30:00 | Writing A Musculoskeletal Mystery The pandemic-sparked book project: filling the education gap for patients and practitioners, demystifying pelvic floor anatomy, evaluations, treatments, and including a self-help toolkit.30:00 – 40:00 | The Continuum of Life & Menopause Care Reframing women's health as a lifelong continuum—pregnancy, perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause—and the alarming statistics: 50% of life spent in menopause transition, rising cardiovascular risks, and the need for strength training over cardio.40:00 – 50:00 | Interdisciplinary Teamwork & Advocacy “Teamwork, teamwork, teamwork”: integrating PTs with physicians, nurses, nutritionists, mental health professionals, and corporate stakeholders.

Caregiving in the workplace is a conversation too few leaders are having—and it's costing businesses more than they realize. Hidden behind turnover rates, disengaged employees, rising healthcare costs, and inconsistent performance is a workforce silently struggling to manage dual roles. Employees at every level, from entry-level staff to the C-suite, are balancing the demands of their careers while caring for aging parents, children with special needs, or loved ones facing health challenges. Yet most organizations aren't equipped to support them, and many employees never speak up. Sue Ryan, Chief Inspirationalist and a strategist for workplace caregiving solutions, brings this challenge into sharp focus. Drawing from over 30 years of personal caregiving experience and professional leadership, Sue shines a light on what she calls the workforce blind spot—an exponentially growing crisis that's costing U.S. businesses an estimated $33 billion annually in lost productivity and turnover. The issue isn't just personal—it's systemic. And it's avoidable. As the U.S. population ages rapidly, with those over 65 set to outnumber those under 18 by 2030, the pressure on working caregivers is increasing fast. The fastest-growing demographic in the country is now adults over 85. This demographic shift is creating ripple effects in every industry, affecting employee well-being, engagement, and long-term retention. Leaders who ignore this trend risk falling behind—not just in compassion, but in performance. Supporting caregiving in the workplace doesn't mean overhauling business models or adding burdensome policies. In fact, many solutions already exist within organizations; they just haven't been adapted to meet this need. Sue breaks down how simple shifts in culture—starting with top-level leadership—can make a meaningful difference. It begins with normalizing the conversation. When employees feel safe acknowledging their caregiving responsibilities, it opens the door to flexibility, planning, and improved collaboration. Business leaders often assume caregiving is an HR issue. That's a costly mistake. When the executive team leads with clarity and openness, human resources can activate systems, provide training for managers, and integrate caregiving into team planning and scheduling. But without visible, top-down acknowledgment, the conversation stalls before it ever starts. Employees who can't speak up often leave, taking their skills and institutional knowledge with them. Sue also draws attention to what she calls the “sandwich generation”—employees, often in their 40s or 50s, who are supporting both aging parents and dependent children while maintaining full-time roles. These team members bring valuable experience and insight to their companies, but their capacity is being stretched thin. Ignoring their reality leads to burnout, disengagement, and missed opportunity. Normalizing caregiving in the workplace can be as straightforward as updating onboarding conversations, creating safe spaces for disclosure, and encouraging leadership to model openness. Organizations like Deloitte, Starbucks, and Amazon are already seeing measurable results from acknowledging and addressing this reality—improvements in productivity, employee satisfaction, and retention. The shift doesn't require large financial investments—it requires intention. Companies already have many of the operational, legal, and financial structures in place to support this evolution. The missing piece is leadership. When executives set the tone, the culture follows. It becomes easier for teams to adapt, cross-train, and collaborate in ways that support both business goals and employee well-being. This is more than a human resources initiative—it's a business growth strategy.

Renowned author, activist and entrepreneur Paul Hawken joins Mongabay's podcast to discuss his new book, Carbon: The Book of Life, and argues that the jargon and fear-based terms broadly used by the climate movement alienate the broader public and fail to communicate the nuance and complexity of the larger ecological crises that humans are causing. Instead, Hawken argues that real change begins in, and is propelled by, communities: "Community is the source of change, and what we have [are] obviously systems that are destroying community everywhere." The tile of Hawken's book, carbon, is also the fourth most abundant element in the universe, and a fundamental building block of life. He argues it is being maligned in a way that distracts from the root causes of ecological destruction in favor of technological solutions that are not viable at scale, or international agreements that prioritize carbon accounting.

A laboratory is where we'd expect to find a safe space of discovery and purpose; an environment that supports experimenting with diverse ideas and mysteries in the search for truth. Add in an atmosphere of mutual trust and acceptance, and now we've created an ecology that invites something even deeper — a God lab.Imagine a God lab as an intensified spiritual retreat, a gathering of like-minded and like-souled individuals seeking new understanding and experience with the divine. In this conversation, we are invited to appreciate a metamodern God lab as a community, created through the shared exploration of the sacred by people who each represent a unique expression of universal possibility.In a metamodern God lab, every person is recognized and accepted as they experiment with creating and evolving their own vision, practices and art; an ecology where people find the inner balance that allows them to embody more fully at the spiritual leading edge of themselves.We get to explore in this conversation the nature and possibilities of emergent metamodern spirituality with two metamodern leaders, Layman Pascal and Brendan Graham Dempsey. (This is the latest in a series of conversations sensing deeper into metamodern spirituality.) Layman and Brendan discuss with Aviv Shahar the recently completed Metamodern God Lab at the Sky Meadow retreat in Vermont.This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change.

And if you get a few new ones each time it starts to spread. And ideally, we would have dozens or hundreds of things like this around the world to be a generator of the leading edge of the culture. As much as we need all these different subsets, what we fundamentally need is the right kind of a scene that's just a constant generator of all the different tentacles of the leading edge.” (Layman)“I think there's something deeply important about having a place where we come together and gather, and connect, and feel this vibe and these energies with each other, and sort of remember our connections with each other and to what we're doing, and the sorts of aims and goals that we have, and the shared vision and the friendship, the relational connections. And being able to continue to deepen; increasing deepening into the relational field of it all is something that I find deeply renewing, and it's kind of like returning to that well of relationship with this incredible community.” (Brendan) RESOURCES MENTIONED Portals of Perception WebsiteAviv's LinkedIn Aviv's TwitterAviv's WebsiteNormalizing the Extraordinary: In the Metamodern God Lab with Layman Pascal and Brendan Graham Dempsey

When unresolved trauma lingers in our bodies, it often manifests as chronic health issues or diseases, such as cancer. The medical community is just beginning to uncover the powerful link between trauma, ACE scores, and cancer. With trauma-informed care now being integrated into medical practices, we're seeing a shift towards more holistic approaches to healing—something the healing community has long known. This is a major breakthrough, and it brings us closer to addressing the root cause of illness, not just the symptoms. In this episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer sit down with Dr. Aleksandra Filipovic, a medical doctor, oncologist, and scientist in cancer cell biology, who's at the forefront of creating holistic treatments for cancer and immune-related conditions. Dr. Filipovic shares her insights on ACE scores and their impact on both our physical health and society. She explores the deep connection between mental and physical health, especially in relation to our immune systems, and how nervous system work can be a game-changer in healing chronic illnesses. Dr. Filipovic also opens up about her personal journey with chronic illness and how it led her to develop a trauma-informed practice that integrates nervous system regulation to promote healing. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding the nervous system's role in chronic health issues and how NSI can be used as a tool to address these issues.  It's easy to blame our bodies when chronic health issues arise, but the truth is, these responses are often a call for healing. By reframing how we view health and learning to work with our nervous systems, we can uncover the root causes of disease and begin the journey to true healing. If this resonates with you, tune in to this episode for more insights into trauma-informed healing and the powerful connection between mind, body, and immune health. Don't miss it!

Join us as we sit down with Ellie Rinnick, a longtime NAPS client, Moms Together founder, and fellow romance novel enthusiast, to have a brutally honest conversation about postpartum, newborn life, and the expectations placed on new moms. Ellie shares how she struggled to connect with her newborn, why the idea that motherhood is “natural” set her up for failure, and how finding community changed everything. Motherhood isn't all baby snuggles and magical moments—sometimes, it's wondering if you'll ever sleep again, texting your best friend “What have we done?”, and crying over your nipples. And that's okay.   In This Episode, We Cover:  • Why you don't have to like your newborn—and why that doesn't make you a bad mom • The myth that postpartum is “natural” and why that mindset sets moms up to struggle • The moment Ellie realized she actually liked her baby (hint: it took weeks) • The guilt of not feeling how you're “supposed” to feel after birth • How finding a community of moms helped Ellie navigate postpartum struggles • Reframing expectations for motherhood—because not every moment is magical   Key Takeaway:  • There's no manual for motherhood—but having real conversations like this one makes it a little easier.   Resources & Mentions:  • Moms Together – Ellie's in-person support groups for moms in the Milton, MA area • NAPS Support Groups – Virtual and in-person groups to help parents feel less alone • Mother Brain by Chelsea Conaboy – A book about how becoming a parent changes your brain • Ellie's Podcast: Day in Her Life – Where Ellie interviews women about the details of their daily lives   Feast & Fettle: Use code NAPSPOD for $30 off your first order  SilverPost: Use code NAPSFAMILY for $5 off any plan kozēkozē: Use code NAPS for 20% off your purchase
