Cystic Fibrosis and obesity? Until recently this has not been a topic of conversation for the CF community. The reason for obesity in the CF community is better health and longer lives, so the concern is now a reality. University of Michigan CF doctor, Carey Lumeng is researching the issue. As he says in this podcast, researchers have a lot to learn about the connection between better health in CF and obesity. We also talk about The Bonnell Foundation fellowship program. A few years ago we started the program to encourage doctors to work in the specialty field of cystic fibrosis. Dr. Lumeng is one of the doctors who oversees this program.Dr. Lumeng is the Frederick G.L. Huetwell Professor for the Cure and Prevention of Birth Defects and Professor in Pediatrics and Molecular and Integrative Physiology. Dr. Lumeng is the Division Chief of Pediatric Pulmonology at the C.S. Mott Children's Hospital and Associate Director of the Michigan MSTP Program.He grew up in Indiana and graduated from Princeton University in Molecular Biology. He received his PhD in Human Genetics and MD from the University of Michigan and completed residency training in Pediatrics in the Boston Combined Pediatrics Residency Program at Boston Children's Hospital and Boston Medical Center. He then completed fellowship training in Pediatric Pulmonology at the University of Michigan and started as faculty in 2006. He runs a research lab focused on the health effects of obesity and the links between metabolism and lung health. The laboratory participates in both basic science and translational research projects in adult and pediatric obesity. He is funded by the NIH and the CF Foundation for new projects studying the changing causes of diabetes in people with CF.To contact the CF pediatric department (the Bonnell girls are pictured on this page): https://www.mottchildren.org/conditions-treatments/cystic-fibrosis-pediatric?pk_vid=6ff46bd2d38fe04c1739891353f5b28b Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

A 70-year-old person with cystic fibrosis. It's a phrase that wasn't just uncommon a few decades ago—it was virtually unheard of.When Luanne McKinnon was diagnosed in 1969 at just 13 years old, doctors told her parents she might live to be 19 years old. Today, Luanne stands on the edge of her 70th birthday—a milestone that not only redefines possibility but embodies resilience, creativity, and purpose.Born in Dallas, Texas in 1955, Luanne was diagnosed at a time when cystic fibrosis was still barely understood. No vests. No targeted medications. No community. And yet, she carved out a life of profound impact. “I stand as a witness to the possible.” says Luanne McKinnonAfter earning a Master of Fine Art in Painting and a PhD in Art History, she launched a celebrated career in the visual arts—owning an art dealership in New York City, directing major university museums, publishing works, and curating over 35 exhibitions. She even became a Fellow at the prestigious Getty Research Institute.And while that would be more than enough for most of us, Luanne continued to pour herself into advocacy—serving as Co-chair for Stanford's Patient and Family Advisory Committee, raising awareness for CF patients before and after transplant. In 2011, she underwent a successful double-lung transplant at Stanford, and fourteen years later, she is still very much living proof.This episode is not about her equally remarkable husband—EMMY award-winning filmmaker Daniel Reeve—though we'll mention him later. This is about Luanne—her life, her art, her truth, and her refusal to let a diagnosis define the limits of her possibility. She says, “I stand as a witness to the possible.”And after listening to this conversation, I think you'll believe in the possible, too.Welcome, to a very special episode of the Living with cystic fibrosis podcast and our incredible guest, Luanne McKinnon.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Sara Reeve (@SaraReeveDraws) Sara Reeve is a Brighton-based painter and tutor with a primary focus on portraiture and painting people. Her work is characterised by strong use of colour, bold shapes, and impactful compositions. Drawing inspiration from both observation and photography, she has a particular interest in portraying women in her paintings. Sara works with oil paints, a medium she finds ideal for capturing the visceral essence of flesh and faces. As a tutor at Draw Brighton, Sara leads regular evening courses on Painting Portraits in Oils, weekend workshops on Self-Portraiture, and weekly online life-drawing sessions. She also teaches Life Drawing and Portraiture to local artist groups and schools in the community. In her personal practice, Sara explores the dynamic tension between subject and viewer, often focusing on a direct gaze. Her work delves into the interaction between what a painting communicates to its audience and the emotional response it evokes. Through her art, Sara aims to uncover deeper layers of connection with both the sitter and the viewer. Sara was participated in Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year, which lead to her being invited to host her own Sky Arts Masterclass episode.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Carrie Jean Goldsmith (@CarrieJeanGoldsmith) Carrie Jean Goldsmith is a Canadian-born artist residing in the UK, celebrated for her abstract paintings that emphasize colour, light, and tonal gradation. Her creative process involves layering various media, embracing diverse brush marks and the luminosity of paint to produce unforeseen outcomes. This method allows her to craft imagery that is both compelling and ambiguous, often evoking a sense of light and occasionally drawing subtle connections to landscapes without being site-specific. Over more than two decades, Carrie's artistic journey has evolved from representational landscapes to a more abstract and gestural approach. Initially inspired by Canadian artist Emily Carr, she began by painting trees and forests, gradually deconstructing these images into shapes and light. The constraints of the COVID-19 lockdowns prompted her to adopt a looser style, characterised by broad swathes of colour and visible brushstrokes, leading to a more intuitive and expressionistic technique. In her studio practice, Goldsmith begins her day by completing ongoing works to reacquaint herself with her materials and techniques before embarking on new pieces.She often prepares multiple canvases in advance, allowing her the freedom to explore and experiment without interruption. This approach underscores her commitment to spontaneity and the celebration of serendipitous discoveries in her art.

I am so excited that this time on the podcast, I am sharing my recent conversation with the great David Coleman. David has been studying astrology for over 30 years and practicing professionally since 1997, working with clients from all walks of life—including members of the British royal family, business professionals,military personnel, budding magicians, anomalous experiencers, and likely, people just like you. David's journey has been a fusion of astrology and magic,developed into a practical system that he published in 2011 as The 26 Keys: A New Approach to Astrology. Over the last decade, he has also maintained a free online journal, Journeys in the Astral Light, supported by his generous patrons, where he publishes monthly in-depth explorations of astrology, magic, and spiritual growth. Now, after over 30 years of research and writing, David hascreated An Archive of Mysteries—a vast, freely accessible collection cataloging over 1,000,000 words of his work. This expanded site is designed to be a deep, structured exploration of astrology, magic, meditation, psychic development, and more. Whether you are a newcomer or a seasoned practitioner,this archive is an open invitation to learn, discover, and grow as we move into an era of revelation and awakening.I met David a few years ago, when we were both foundingmembers of The Experiencer Group. At that time I was still wrestling with my experiences and found in David a generous, safe and wise guide through some of the most perplexing and frightening times of my life. Beyond David's impressive bio, you will find a kind, authentic soul who is doing great work in the work. Capital G, capital W, helping us all progress the Great Work of creation to find its way home, back to the all that is. David will be a returning guest on the podcast. We have somuch to say to each other and he has so much wisdom to share in these unprecedented times, when we will need, as David told me before our talk began, to strengthen our Spirit for what is to come. In this conversation, we talk about Her, Gaia, our Mother planet Earth. David explains why the ETs are here at this time, where we're going, and what we will need to do to get there. We've only scratched the surface here, and yet David expanded my awareness out to the farthest reaches of creation herself,down into the darkness of the current struggle of humanity, and back to a Golden Future that is ours to express, if we can face and bear what we've done, and what's to come.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Louise Duggan (@louisedugganartist) Louise Duggan is a Chichester-based multidisciplinary artist whose work is a journey of discovery. After graduating from Leicester University in 1996 with a BA (Hons) in Art and Design, Louise embarked on a successful career in high-end interior design. She worked throughout London before relocating to Dubai, where she spent 23 years designing and producing bespoke artworks for prestigious clients. Her work is featured in many of Dubai's five-star hotels, including a commission of nine paintings for the world's first 7-star hotel, the Burj Al Arab. Her abstract human figures and bold compositions express ideas rather than subjects, inviting viewers to engage with the emotional and subconscious layers of her art.Louise challenges her own subconscious beliefs through both therapy and her art, capturing and documenting this transformative journey. Her work reflects self-exploration, a medium through which she confronts and evolves her inner world. In addition to her artistic practice, Louise currently runs Ophelia Art Consultancy LTD, with offices in the UK and Dubai, and the Sussex Creative Art Network CIC (Chichester CAN).

Panama has been looking for solutions to a long-term problem. Every time a ship passes through the Panama Canal, more than 50 million gallons of fresh water from Lake Gatun pour out into the ocean. Nobody ever thought Panama could run out of water. It is one of the rainiest countries in the world. But a couple years ago, a drought got so bad that the canal had to reduce traffic by more than a third - which had a huge impact on global shipping.The Panama Canal needs more water. Authorities have decided to get it by building a dam in a spot that would displace more than 2,000 people along the Rio Indio.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.orgEmail us at considerthis@npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
The Gaza Strip – ground zero of Israel's war with Hamas – is only about twice the size of Washington, DC. It has about 25 miles of coastline along the Mediterranean Sea, with a population of about 2 million people. Last week, President Trump proposed relocating those people to other countries in the region, like Egypt and Jordan.Trump has said the Palestinians would not be allowed to return: UN officials and others say Trump's plan would amount to ethnic cleansing. Despite domestic and international concerns that the U.S. is empire building, Trump continues to double down on his plans for the U.S. to "own" Gaza.Trump says the U.S. is going to take over Gaza, though he offers few specifics. What could the proposal mean for Palestinians and the broader Middle East?

President Trump's blizzard of executive orders has run into a snowplow of legal challenges. There are dozens of cases challenging the White House's actions. Judges all over the country have found that the White House acted illegally.The challenges, and the rulings, continue to pour in. But Trump's team is punching back. After a judge blocked Elon Musk's DOGE team from accessing personal data and other Treasury department systems, Musk referred to him as "a corrupt judge protecting corruption" and called for his impeachment.Vice President JD Vance made the controversial claim on Sunday that quote, "judges aren't allowed to control the executive's legitimate power." Comments like these suggest Trump's circle may be willing to ignore court orders and defy judicial authority.So what happens if the executive branch ignores the judicial branch? Is that a constitutional crisis? Is the United States already in one?For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.orgEmail us at considerthis@npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency is quickly expanding its reach through the federal government.It recently accessed systems at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Musk and his team now are looking at key payment and contracting systems for Medicare and Medicaid.That was first reported by the Wall Street Journal.On X, Musk said he believes quote "big money fraud is happening." Medicare insures older people. Medicaid offers insurance to low income people and those with disabilities.These two health insurance programs serve tens of millions of people, and they consume a huge part of federal and state budgets. So how could DOGE impact these services?

Project 2025, is a 900-plus page blueprint for a conservative President. It was unveiled in the spring of 2023, well before Donald Trump had won the republican presidential nomination.It outlined a suite of very conservative policies that would, for example, outlaw the mailing of abortion pills and abolish the department of education. It even suggests a return to the gold standard.It became a democratic talking point, so much so that Trump repeatedly distanced himself from the plan and the authors.But now that Trump is in office, releasing his own detailed plans. A lot of them are strikingly similar to the ones laid out in Project 2025. And one of its chief architects is now the head of the critical Office of Management and Budget.Trump disavowed Project 2025 during the campaign. Now, as President, is he using it as a playbook?For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.orgEmail us at considerthis@npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

A lot of labels have been applied to Trump's foreign policy approach. America First, Isolationist, transactional, imperialist, protectionist. "I'm a nationalist and a globalist" he told the Wall Street Journal during his first term. In his inaugural address last month, Trump made comments suggesting his foreign policy will be characterized by restraint, saying, in part, success should be defined by the "wars we never get into."Yet in the same address, he also said, the United States will take back the Panama Canal. In his first campaign, Trump ran on the idea that the cycle of the United States intervening in the Middle East should come to an end. And on Tuesday of this week, he said that the U.S. will "take over" the Gaza Strip, after relocating the Palestinians, who live there.Trump has promised a new approach to American foreign policy. Is there a Trump Doctrine? And what is it?For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.orgEmail us at considerthis@npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
President Trump floated two stunning ideas about Gaza on Tuesday. The first is he said the U.S. would take over the territory, which has been devastated by the recent war.And, he said the entire population of Gaza would be relocated to other countries. Trump offered no specifics for his plans sending Palestinians and Israelis scrambling to understand what he means.President Trump's vague plan to "Make Gaza Beautiful Again" could signal the largest shift in US-Middle East policy in decades and could upend widespread hope for a Palestinian state alongside Israel.

The Panama Canal has sat at the center of global trade for more than a century, connecting two oceans. The things Americans use every day pass through here, from gas to food. And now, this spot is also at the center of President Trump's global expansionist agenda.Secretary of State Marco Rubio has just wrapped up a trip to Panama where he told the President that if China's influence over the canal isn't curbed the United States will take measures to protect its rights.Trump's threat to take back the Panama Canal has the potential to reshuffle global politics.

Most presidents want as much power as they can get. And it's not unusual to see them claim authority that they don't, in the end, actually have. We saw it just last term, when former President Biden tried to unilaterally forgive hundreds of billions of dollars in federal student loans.Or when he announced, days before leaving office that the 28th Amendment, on gender equality, was now the law of the land. So are the opening moves of Trump's presidency just a spicier version of the standard playbook or an imminent threat to constitutional government as we know it?For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.orgEmail us at considerthis@npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

As evacuation orders are lifted, people in Los Angeles are returning to their homes--if their homes survived. But the disaster doesn't end when the fire stops. A single block and a half separates the Altadena home of Jennifer and Ed Barguiarena from complete destruction. Just down the street lies charred, flattened debris. But for families like the Barguiarenas — the seemingly lucky ones, whose houses survived — an altogether different ordeal is just beginning. The water still isn't safe to drink, cook or wash with. There are fine layers of ash and dust in people's homes and yards. And families like the Barguiarenas are also worried about what they can't see – the possibility that toxins like lead and asbestos might have drifted into their homes.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.orgEmail us at considerthis@npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

And his administration would end birthright citizenship — a right explicitly protected by the Constitution.President Donald Trump's executive actions could make fundamental changes to some of the foundations of American government.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.orgEmail us at considerthis@npr.orgLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
