Podcasts about One Woman

Well, I had a juicy interview lined up with a self-proclaimed "tiny dick loser"—yes, he calls himself that—but tech gremlins ate the audio

Kat Hantas is the co-founder of 21SEEDS Tequila, one of the fastest-growing flavored tequilas. She created 21SEEDS because it's what she wanted to drink – something smooth, simple, and casual with a fresh, natural flavor that made drinking infused tequila as approachable as a glass of wine. Before it was a brand, it was just a couple of bottles infused in her kitchen with things she had on hand. What began as one bottle turned into dozens… and eventually, a new beginning. She called her sister Nicole and our friend Sarika, and they started talking about the possibilities. They found a female-led distillery– a perfect fit. They worked on different infusions and got each recipe just right. They came up with a name. Two sisters and one friend: 21SEEDS was born. In today's episode, Nada talks with Kat about her journey as a co-founder in the spirits industry. After a conversation with her doctor, Kat set out to create a cleaner drink to replace her nightly glass of wine and then began making cocktails for her older friends and family who were experiencing similar side effects from drinking. Despite 21SEEDS quick success, Kat experienced several failed endeavors. She and Nada reflect on what success means, the importance of trying new things, and that age is an asset, not a liability.  To find out more about 21SEEDS, check out their website.

Send us a textWhat if the secret to women's health lies not in treating symptoms, but in understanding the unique patterns beneath them? Andrea Corleto discovered this truth the hard way, navigating her own chronic illness journey through a healthcare system that often left her questions unanswered. That frustrating experience sparked the creation of Lyv Health – a personalized longevity platform designed specifically for women.The shocking reality is that women spend 25% more time in poor health than men. While men maintain relatively stable hormonal states throughout their lives, women experience dramatic shifts during various life stages – from postpartum recovery to perimenopause and beyond. These transitions often bring symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, and night sweats that traditional healthcare approaches may dismiss or inadequately address.Lyv Health takes a fundamentally different approach by combining comprehensive biomarker testing with AI-powered analysis and human clinical support. By examining approximately 70 different biomarkers, the platform identifies the underlying causes of symptoms, including hormonal imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, and metabolic issues. This data-driven approach doesn't just address immediate health concerns; it also reveals early warning signs for conditions like cardiovascular disease, the leading killer of women.What makes this approach truly revolutionary is its ability to balance cutting-edge technology with essential human connection. While artificial intelligence processes vast amounts of health data in minutes (tasks that would take human clinicians weeks), real healthcare professionals review all insights and provide personalized support. This combination creates a healthcare experience that addresses both scientific and emotional needs – something Andrea wished existed during her own health struggles.Whether you prefer natural approaches through nutrition and supplements or need medication-based interventions, Lyv Health offers personalized recommendations that fit your lifestyle and preferences. Ready to understand what's really happening beneath your symptoms? Visit lyvhealth.co to learn how data-driven insights could transform your health journey.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Author and fat liberation advocate Amanda Martinez Beck @thefatdispatch joins me to share what it's like to navigate eating disorder treatment while taking a GLP-1 medication for diabetes care. She opens up about her lived experience with atypical anorexia in a larger body, the challenges of muted hunger cues on Ozempic, and how she's learning to embrace nourishment with compassion. This conversation highlights the nuance of recovery, the complexities of body change, and the importance of choosing curiosity over judgment. CONTENT CAUTION This episode discusses eating disorders, fat stigma, and experiences with GLP-1 medications. Please take care while listening. WHAT WE COVER How atypical anorexia is often overlooked in larger bodies Why Ozempic can suppress hunger cues and mimic anorexia symptoms Building structured meals and snacks when appetite cues are muted Holding nuance in fat liberation while navigating diabetes care Practicing curiosity instead of judgment when bodies change Fat accessibility in professional settings and advocating for support The creation of Nozempic Mondays as a community resource on Substack KEY TAKEAWAYS Eating disorder recovery requires intentional nourishment, regardless of body size.

Dr. Colwell shares her insight on the progression of women in science through the years. Framed by her own experiences we learn about her incredible work.

Jenn is a long-distance walker, community leader, and passionate advocate for women's wellbeing in the outdoors — especially during menopause. From battling endometriosis, PCOS, and the trauma of an early medical menopause in her 20s, she was once told she couldn't live the active, adventurous life she craved. She's spent the last few years since proving otherwise — one footstep at a time. What began as a personal outlet for healing has evolved into something much bigger: being able to connect women to their strength through hiking, movement, and community. Whether she's leading local walks, multi-day hikes, backpacking or pushing her own limits, she walks with the intention that creating space for people to feel heard, safe and be around nature is of the upmost importance. A qualified lowland leader, speaker, and founder of a thriving women's walking community in Kent, she brings insight, humour, and unflinching honesty to conversations about menopause, mental health, leadership, and what it means to feel powerful in your body again — especially when the world told you not to try. Through her trail stories — from ultra hikes to quiet woodland days — she shows that adventure isn't about speed or summits. It's simply about showing up.

Key Points Zoe was diagnosed with endometriosis at age 17 after experiencing symptoms for four years, which was considered fortunate since the average diagnosis period for women is typically eight years.Medical professionals initially dismissed her severe pain as heavy periods, with male gynecologists showing less empathy than female healthcare workers, and doctors wanting to induce early menopause through injections rather than natural surgical menopause.Treatment protocol included multiple contraceptive methods like implants, injections, coils, and hormone replacement tablets that caused negative mental side effects, followed by laparoscopic surgery for definitive diagnosis.Psychological impact was severely negative, especially during her formative years, leading to lifestyle changes and the realization that lifestyle factors can minimize endometriosis pain and symptoms.Heavy pharmaceutical dependency developed with doctors prescribing tramadol eight times daily for two years, morphine, and gabapentin, creating withdrawal issues that required gradual tapering under medical supervision.Six operations were performed over the years, with endometriosis affecting her bowel, uterus, and tubes, including the controversial removal of her left ovary despite right-side pain and ongoing right-side cysts.Decision to pursue holistic alternatives occurred around COVID-19 after her husband advocated for proper hospital treatment, leading to research into detoxing and healthy lifestyle implementation.Medical cannabis journey began with recreational use that showed benefits, progressing to obtaining a UK can card for legal protection, then transitioning to a proper medical cannabis clinic three years ago.Cannabis treatment includes THC and CBD capsules for bowel-related symptoms, THC drops taken sublingually, and flower consumed through a Mighty Medic vaporizer, with monthly prescriptions and quarterly reviews.Remarkable recovery occurred post-surgery with no nausea or sickness, appetite restoration, and four kilograms weight gain after losing eight kilograms over three months of severe illness.Family support system including her husband with PTSD, two children aged 11 and 12, and her father who raised her from age five provides the primary motivation for maintaining health and recovery.Victoria, a woman who achieved 11 years of pain-free living through magnesium, supplements, yoga, and lifestyle changes, inspired Zoe's holistic approach combined with positive mindset training.Encouragement for newly diagnosed women emphasizes personal strength, connecting with online endometriosis communities, open family communication, independent research beyond doctor recommendations, and daily gratitude practices.

Donna Adelson spent years controlling every aspect of her family's life, but in the end, she became the very person who destroyed them. Once seen as the matriarch holding everything together, Donna was recently convicted of orchestrating the murder of her ex–son-in-law, Dan Markel. In this video, we dive deep into the mind of Donna Adelson—a woman who could have saved her family but instead chose a path that ultimately tore them apart. They had it all…until they decided to hire a hitman. Was it worth it? Who really wins when a family is built on lies, control, and crime?

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Roseanne D'Ausilio, author of the book Pain, Pumpernickel, and Profound Forgiveness. Roseanne D'Ausilio, Ph.D., is an industrial psychologist, consultant, best-selling author, executive coach, customer service expert, and President of Human Technologies Global. Known as ‘the practical champion of the human,' in a high-tech world, she authors 15 mostly non-fiction books. Her first book was Wake Up Your Call Center: Humanize Your Interaction Hub now in its 4th edition. Pain, Pumpernickel, & Profound Forgiveness: A Daughter's Story of her Punishing & Loving Relationship with her Father is Rosanne's first memoir--A very different genre. Rosanne splits her time between Northern Virginia and the Caribbean and can be found doing Zumba nearly every day. It's her body/mind/spirit dance.   In my book review, I stated Pain, Pumpernickel, & Profound Forgiveness is a beautiful memoir. Through the use of short essays, Rosanne helps us understand her relationship with her father - and her mother - the good and the not-so-good.   As I read, I often felt that Rosanne learned the lessons of the book - love doesn't always look like we think it will, we can change how we see things, compassion is possible even when hurting, and you can be at peace with your past - as she wrote down her memories. Her surprise at what she found was evident!   Rosanne's tales are full of what she calls Divine Interventions - times where logic doesn't adequately explain the outcomes and miracles abound. And through these Divine Interventions, Rosanne learns so much about her father, herself, and their often-troubled relationship.   As someone who has struggled with familial relationships, I enjoyed watching the author discover that there is more than one way to see the past - and how you think about the past is entirely up to you! This is a quick, easy read that will leave you thinking deeply.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Roseanne D'Ausilio Website: https://drrosanne.com/ FB: @rosanne.dausilio LinkedIn: @rosannedausiliophd   Purchase Pain, Pumpernickel, and Profound Forgiveness on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/4kT39ia Ebook: https://amzn.to/4kzhZdJ   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

How much would you be willing (and able) to pay to get your knee or hip replaced? Calgarian Linda Slater's knee pain became unbearable during her two-year wait to see an orthopedic surgeon. She drained her retirement savings to pay $30,000 for a new knee at a private Toronto clinic. Dr. Rick Zarnett, an orthopedic surgeon who works out of both a private clinic and public hospital, says the system needs to improve so patients can get surgery sooner.

Labor Day Replay:A divine prophecy, a kitchen cupboard full of auction school applications, and a career-defining first sale scheduled right after 9/11 – these unlikely elements converged to launch Yvette Vanderbrink into the world of automotive auctioneering, where she's spent 25 years specializing in barn finds and collector vehicles that others often don't know how to handle.Vanderbrink takes us behind the scenes of her recent Montana auction featuring 604 vehicles from three generations of collecting, explaining the logistical nightmares of conducting sales in remote locations with no cell service or electricity. With refreshing candor, she shares stories of overcoming sexism in the industry, including the memorable response to a man who suggested she "make a sandwich and let the boys do it" – she simply took away his bidder number.The psychology of car collecting emerges as a fascinating thread, with Yvette noting vehicles are "easier to come home than they are to leave," explaining how modest collections transform into hoarding situations. The thrill of the hunt often supersedes practical restoration plans, leading to expansive collections awaiting "someday" projects – something she witnessed firsthand with her father's 228-car collection.Don Armstrong provides a thorough review of the 2025 Kia Niro Hybrid, highlighting its impressive 53 mpg city fuel economy, attractive styling with Volvo-esque taillights, and competitive $26,990 starting price. The "small station wagon" (according to government classification) earns praise for its unique design elements, simple interior controls, and outstanding efficiency, positioning it as an ideal urban commuter vehicle.Whether you're fascinated by barn finds with stories to tell, considering an efficient hybrid for your daily commute, or simply enjoy authentic car talk from passionate enthusiasts, this episode delivers entertainment and insights that will have you looking at both forgotten classics and modern hybrids in a new light.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Joining us for this episode of Diverse Thinking Different Learning is Barbara Arrowsmith-Young! Barbara is a pioneering author and innovator in neuroeducation, known for applying neuroplasticity to improve cognitive function. Since 1978, her work has helped individuals with learning difficulties, brain injuries, addiction, and age-related decline, and it is now used worldwide. She shares her groundbreaking journey in her bestselling book The Woman Who Changed Her Brain and her TEDx talk, and continues advancing research as Director of the Arrowsmith program. In this episode of Diverse Thinking Different Learning, Barbara shares her deeply powerful journey of overcoming significant learning difficulties she faced from a young age. Growing up in the 1950s, Barbara was labeled as "slow" and was told by her teachers not to have high expectations for her academic future, but despite the challenges, her mother's determination and Barbara's resilience allowed her to learn how to read, write, and do basic math, although she continued to struggle with comprehension and processing language. As an adult, Barbara had an epiphany after reading the work of neuropsychologist Alexander Luria. She discovered that the root of her learning difficulties was due to specific areas of her brain that were underperforming, so inspired by research on neuroplasticity, she set out to create cognitive exercises that could strengthen those weaker brain regions. She reflects in this episode on how, to her amazement, the exercises led to a huge change in her cognitive abilities, allowing her to fully engage in conversations, understand complex concepts, and more. Barbara discusses how she was determined to share this life-changing approach,  founded the Arrowsmith School, and developed the Arrowsmith Program, which has now helped thousands of students around the world. She passionately advocates for integrating neuroscience and cognitive training into education, empowering all learners to enhance their brain's capacity and unlock their full potential. If you enjoy this episode, you will have the wonderful opportunity to learn more about Barbara's work during a live webinar on September 17th, 2025. Don't miss this chance to dive deeper into the power of neuroplasticity and how it can transform the lives of students who struggle with learning differences!

In this inspiring and candid interview, Dr. Marianne Miller speaks with psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner Kirsten Book @bookconciergepsych about her powerful journey from living with bulimia for more than a decade to building a successful career in mental health care. Kirsten reveals how her early struggles were shaped by inadequate treatment, provider misconceptions, and the absence of neurodivergent-affirming approaches, especially before her ADHD diagnosis at age 30. Kirsten describes the turning point that came when she became pregnant with her son, which motivated her to pursue lasting recovery. She discusses her imperfect but determined healing process, her career change from business to nursing, and her passion for treating eating disorders, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders. Content Caution: This episode contains discussions of eating disorders, bulimia, anorexia, substance use, and experiences with psychiatric care. Key Topics Covered Early signs of bulimia and anorexia, and how puberty shaped her body image and self-esteem The emotional toll of being dismissed or misunderstood by treatment providers Why early emotional education should be part of every child's learning experience How hope can sustain recovery even in the most difficult moments The role of a late ADHD diagnosis in helping her maintain stability in recovery The connection between undiagnosed ADHD, eating disorders, and substance use Why thorough assessments are essential beyond the presenting symptoms Benefits of collaborative treatment teams in both higher levels of care and private practice Designing a concierge psychiatric practice with a focus on quality and accessibility About Kirsten Book, PMHNP-BC Kirsten is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner treating children, adolescents, and adults.

I'm not sure on this one. On the one hand, Isabelle Boemeke is a pin-up of an environmentally activist generation - going from superstar Brazilian model and Instagram influencer to the author of Rad Future, a manifesto about how nuclear electricity will save the world. On other other hand, there's something slightly troubling in our social media age about this kind of dramatic trajectory - especially given the existential stakes here. Especially since Boemeke - who happens to be married to Joe Gebbia, Airbnb co-founder and one of the world's richest men - acknowledges her lack of scientific knowledge about electricity, nuclear or otherwise. The New York Times just ran a piece about Boemeke , describing her appearance as “like the heroine of a dystopian novel”, and expressing similar concerns, even wondering is she might be in the pay of the nuclear electricity lobby. I guess my worry is less about Boemeke and more about a culture that is comfortable transforming “saving the world” into an Instagrammable meme. Or maybe, as Boemeke suggested in our feisty conversation, I'm just an old fart who just doesn't get the immediacy of the existential environmental crisis that the world now faces. 1. Nuclear Energy Has Surprising Bipartisan Political SupportUnlike most energy sources, nuclear power enjoys support from both Trump and Biden administrations. This rare political consensus suggests nuclear might transcend typical partisan energy debates, making it more viable for large-scale implementation than other clean energy sources.2. The Weapons-Electricity Connection Is Largely OverblownOnly 7 of the 31 countries with nuclear electricity have weapons, and 5 of those had weapons before developing civilian nuclear programs. The data suggests the fear of proliferation from civilian nuclear programs may be largely unfounded, challenging a core anti-nuclear argument.3. Nuclear Safety Data Contradicts Public PerceptionNuclear power has a death rate per terawatt hour comparable to solar and wind, and significantly lower than hydropower. Boemeke argues that Three Mile Island wasn't actually a disaster (no health impacts), and that safety fears are largely based on outdated perceptions rather than current data.4. Shutting Down Nuclear Plants Increases Fossil Fuel UseEvery time a nuclear plant closes (like Indian Point in New York), it gets replaced by fossil fuels, not renewables, despite political promises. This pattern suggests that nuclear closures may actually harm climate goals rather than help them.5. Expertise vs. Influence Raises Troubling QuestionsBoemeke's transformation from model to nuclear advocate highlights broader questions about who gets to shape critical policy debates in the social media age. Her acknowledged lack of scientific expertise, combined with her massive platform and wealthy connections, exemplifies tensions between technical knowledge and cultural influence in addressing existential challenges.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

There is a growing segment of our American society, this so-called new woke aspect, which seeks to redefine the meaning/definition of a man, a real man, a Biblical man.The definition of a man, by both Biblical and Societal definitions, was clear, not subject to debate or change. That man, created by the Great G-d Jehovah, the Great I Am, was created in His image and was to be like Him, ordained by God to be the ruler of the planet and to be head of all things. That man was biologically determined, and both sex and gender unchangeable. But, a man today, accordingly to the radical woke element of our society, can both decide and determine his sex/gender, and should he choose a different gender identity, he can do so, no matter any Biblical or biological determination.And, that changing definition is today a work-in-progress. A man today can now be gay, that is homosexual, bi-sexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ), or some different alternative with which the individual may identify.It is really a tragedy what is happening to God's first man, His creation. This new definition of man makes him not like HIM the Great Creator, but made in mans image and definition.But, let us review what the Bible says about a real man. He is called upon to be strong, not only in body, physically, but in mind, will, spirit, and soul. The real man is possessive of a God-made body, which is, as described by the Bible:THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.That physical body of a real man should be honored, respected, cared for, and kept in the best physical shape possible by that man, never forgetting that it is the housing of the spirit, The Holy Spirit of the Great Divine Triumvirate.That real man, like our Lord Jesus Christ, may enjoy the fruit of the grape, the wine which Jesus himself drank, if he so chooses, but should never, ever, be drunken. Drinking wine or alcohol to excess is the ruination of the temple of The Holy Spirit. No real man can function mentally or spiritually under the influence of drugs or alcohol. None.The real Biblical man respects his body and his sexuality, and will not be given to adultery, fornication, lascivious living, and always respects, protects, and honors marital intimacy. He is a man with strong fidelity and ultimate respect for:ONE WOMAN. ONE WIFE.The real man constantly strives to learn, educate himself, and in all things, asks for the wisdom for his life and decision making, which only God can give. The request for God given wisdom is constant, continuous, and totally sincere in all things, everything. God honors the sincere request of any real man for HIS wisdom.That real man is strong spiritually. Learn-ed in the Bible, and always learning. studying, sharing, witnessing, and teaching, always growing in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. That is the only way that man can be a real father and train up his children in the way they should go, the way of the Lord.That real Biblical man is a protector of the Christian faith, and to that extent, politically active. He renders unto Caesar the things which rightly belong to Caesar, but demands morality, truth, respect, and honesty in all things political. The real man is a watch dog, a watchman on the wall, making certain that Caesar functions in the way that Caesar should, so that the things of God Almighty are never interfered with.The real man discharges his duties as HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD. That ethical principle has become more unpopular today. Far too many men abandon their responsibilities and any substitute for a real father is never enough, inadequate, and most importantly, not Biblical.If the real man is privileged to have a real family, then that man, husband, father, friend, and teacher spends time, quality time, consistent regular and respectful time, with every member of that household lovingly together as one family unit but also, lovingly and respectfully individually with each member. Only by implementing both, together and individual, can the individuals of that family thrive and grow.The real man is truthful. That Biblical man does not lie. He is known for telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, transparency in all things. Any in the family, even the youngest, can sense hypocrisy, and can even more easily ascertain the lie of any kind. Nothing sabotages the credibility and integrity of a man/father than the lie, nothing.The Biblical man/father never fails to discipline when necessary. That discipline is not physical, but lovingly confrontational. That real man, and the real woman of the household, must be living examples of any rules and regulations which are established for the operation of the family and the household.The real man, and of course the real woman, must spend quiet time, time and prayer, meditation, and thoughtful evaluation and in the study of Scripture. And so much to every family member.The Bible, Old and New Testaments, has so much more to say about a man, a real man. It is difficult, if not impossible, to be a real man without that Biblical knowledge, definition, and encouragement of what a real man is. Today, the challenges of this world make it far too easy to compromise, surrender, and succumb to the definitions, pleasures, and lusts of the modern society. It is our prayer, our revival prayer, that the Biblical man, the man God and our Lord Jesus Christ intended, reemerge, become the shining light for society and for any family, and once again, both do and become the man/person which God intended. That man is always humble before the Lord, ready to admit wrong, apologize, to shed a tear, and to show love and respect to everyone. If a man, a Biblical man, lives and loves like the Bible intended, there is nothing in life any better, no greater force than that of a:REAL BIOLOGICAL AND BIBLICAL MAN.

What would you do if your health insurer suddenly dropped you—and the care you needed cost thousands out of pocket? That's what happened to Lani Gonzales, a former attorney from Florida who thought she understood contracts—until she came face-to-face with America's broken healthcare system. After experiencing medical debt and being denied coverage for vital health treatments, Lani asked herself: Why keep playing a game that's rigged against me? Her search for affordable, compassionate care led her across the border to Mexico – and to some surprising lessons about what health care in America could look like. This is the first episode in a two-part series with Lani.

Send us a textWhen Stefani stepped onto the softball field at Sacramento State on scholarship, no one could have predicted the dark journey ahead. Her story shatters the myth that sex trafficking only happens to certain types of people from certain backgrounds.Raised in a loving home with a law enforcement family, Stefani's path to addiction began subtly through a high school relationship. What started as experimental pill use spiraled after a sexual assault left her traumatized and withdrawn from college. Without support, she found herself gravitating toward increasingly dangerous situations and substances.The most devastating turn came when she lost custody of her infant son. Homeless and desperate, Stefani became vulnerable to traffickers who recognized her isolation. Over three harrowing years, she endured different forms of exploitation before a miraculous escape that she credits to divine intervention. Even then, her battle wasn't over – she was shocked to discover she was pregnant again only when she went into labor.Now six months sober, Stefani speaks with remarkable clarity about how easily anyone can become trapped in trafficking. "They don't go after girls raised in the streets who would call their bullshit," she explains. "They target women like me, women like your daughters." Her insights into traffickers' tactics – from the false savior to the violent controller to the manipulative boyfriend – provide crucial education for parents, educators, and young people.Stefani's journey toward recovery reveals both the depths of human cruelty and the heights of resilience. Her willingness to share her darkest moments serves as both warning and inspiration – a reminder that no matter how far we fall, redemption remains possible. Her focus now? Building a healthy life with her daughter and using her experience to help others recognize the warning signs she missed.This episode contains discussions of sexual assault, addiction, and trafficking that may be difficult for some listeners. It also contains profound insights about healing, forgiveness, and finding purpose in pain.Thank You for Joining Us.. Please share with friends.

What drives someone to bike 631 miles across Idaho for charity, swim five miles through frigid waters with their 70-year-old grandmother, or keep pursuing extreme physical challenges after surviving a rocket attack in Syria? Meet Melisa Creek, an ultra-endurance athlete and military veteran whose extraordinary journey blends adventure with purpose. In this raw, captivating conversation, Melisa takes us from the grueling slopes of Mount St. Helens to the treacherous Aasgard Pass in the Enchantments, sharing what motivates her to constantly push beyond perceived limitations."I love feeling kind of beat down," she admits with surprising candor. "I love that feeling of doing something I didn't know if I was capable of doing." This philosophy has guided Melisa through remarkable feats, including a cross-state bicycle journey just weeks before deployment and swimming Wallowa Lake in 52-degree water only three months after giving birth.Beyond the physical challenges, Melisa offers a powerful perspective on resilience after trauma. Her experience surviving an Iranian rocket attack while deployed fundamentally changed her relationship with everyday stress: "Being at work during a rush—I feel like I'm able to keep my composure because we're not getting blown up. It's just coffee."Throughout our conversation, Melisa reveals how these extreme pursuits have evolved from potential escape mechanisms in her youth to becoming deliberate choices for personal growth and self-discovery. With future goals including qualifying for the prestigious Western States ultramarathon and climbing Mount Rainier, her story reminds us that the human spirit thrives not in comfort, but in challenge.Whether you're an aspiring athlete, outdoor enthusiast, or simply someone seeking inspiration to push beyond your own boundaries, Melisa's journey demonstrates how facing our limits—both physical and mental—can lead to profound transformation and unexpected joy.Shoutout to :Melisa Creek Jose Garcia Ag-Gear Store https://www.aggearstore.com/Use Code: Milesmountains For 15% Off Alter Ego Ambassador: https://alteregorunning.com/Miles & Mountains Promo Code: Milesmountainsyr3Raising Awareness:Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW)Mental Health Send us a text

What does it look like to practice Christianity in a country where the government controls religious expression? Jolie, a Chinese Christian, takes us behind the scenes of faith life in modern China, revealing a fascinating world where state churches require government-approved sermons and where house churches operate in a delicate balance with authorities.Raised in China and introduced to Christianity at age eight, Jolie initially viewed God as "almost like a genie" - someone to pray to only when she needed something. It wasn't until facing major life disappointments and a near-death experience that her faith transformed into a genuine relationship with Christ. Her journey eventually led her to Wisconsin Lutheran College in America before returning to her homeland with a deeper understanding of biblical teaching.Jolie offers rare insights into how Chinese Christians navigate cultural pressures in a society obsessed with worldly success. She explains her countercultural decision to stay home with her children in a country where career advancement is paramount and where even having more than one child - despite the relaxation of the one-child policy in 2016 - remains uncommon. "They've developed this culture where both grandparents take care of this one grandchild, and then the parents will be working," she explains. "A lot of my other friends feel like even one child is too much because they want to make sure they have enough time and energy for their career."The conversation explores fascinating aspects of Chinese culture, from the challenges of eldercare in a society with strong filial piety values to the unexpected ways Christianity persists and even thrives under restrictions. For anyone interested in global Christianity, family dynamics in different cultures, or the resilience of faith under challenging circumstances, this episode provides thoughtful perspective on how believers maintain their convictions while navigating complex cultural and political realities.Have questions about faith, family, or other life challenges?

Part 1 Girls & Sex by Peggy Orenstein Summary"Girls & Sex: Navigating the Complicated New Landscape" by Peggy Orenstein explores the sexual experiences and challenges faced by contemporary adolescent girls. Through interviews and research, Orenstein delves into how today's culture influences young women's understanding of sex, relationships, and their own identities. Here are some key points from the book:Cultural Shifts: The book highlights the changes in societal norms surrounding female sexuality, particularly in the wake of technology and social media. Orenstein notes that these shifts can lead to mixed messages about sex, often emphasizing sexual availability while undermining genuine intimacy.Pressure and Expectations: Orenstein discusses the pressure girls face to conform to sexual norms, which can include engaging in sexual activities as a means of gaining acceptance or validation. This pressure is compounded by societal expectations and the influence of pornography.Consent and Communication: A significant theme throughout the book is the importance of consent and clear communication in relationships. Orenstein advocates for better education surrounding these topics, empowering girls to understand and assert their own boundaries.Emotional Complexities: The emotional aspects of young women's sexual experiences are thoroughly examined. Orenstein illustrates how many girls struggle with feelings of shame, anxiety, and confusion regarding their sexual identities and experiences.Impact of Technology: The role of technology, including social media and texting, is a central focus. Orenstein discusses both the opportunities for connection it provides and the potential pitfalls, such as cyberbullying and the pressure to engage in sexual behavior prematurely.Intersectionality: Orenstein also acknowledges that experiences of race, class, and sexual orientation can deeply affect how girls navigate their sexual lives, making it essential to approach these topics with a comprehensive understanding.Hopeful Solutions: Finally, the book concludes with a call for action, emphasizing the need for open conversations about sex, better educational resources, and supportive environments where girls can feel safe to express their desires and concerns.Overall, "Girls & Sex" provides a nuanced portrayal of the complex realities facing modern girls, urging society to foster environments that prioritize their well-being and promote healthier understandings of sexuality.Part 2 Girls & Sex AuthorPeggy Orenstein is an American author and speaker, well-known for her works that explore gender, sexuality, and culture, particularly as they relate to young women.
