Dr. Amy Bantham is founder of Move to Live More, an organization dedicated to building bridges between healthcare, the fitness industry, and community organizations to help more people live healthier, more active lives. Amy is the Past President of the Physical Activity Alliance, a certified health and wellness coach, personal trainer, and group fitness instructor, and holds a Doctor of Public Health from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.We explore how the language we use shapes beliefs about aging and movement, why phrases like "exercise keeps you young" can do more harm than good, and how we can shift the conversation from fear and decline to strength, confidence, and possibility.We also discuss what really keeps people coming back to movement programs. Spoiler alert: it's rarely the workout itself. It's the relationships, the laughter, and the sense of belonging. From simple ways to build social connection into your classes to rethinking how we talk about falls, strength, and confidence, this conversation provides practical ideas for movement leaders and anyone passionate about creating healthier communities.Links for Amy:https://www.movetolivemore.com/ LinkedInhttps://www.agentsofmovement.com/

Generic messaging fails for a simple reason. It speaks to everyone, which means it actually speaks to no one. The messages that stick, the ones people repeat, forward, and act on, are never written for "employees" or "stakeholders" or "our valued customers." They are written for one person, with one specific frustration, in one specific moment. That's not a nice idea about storytelling. It's a framework, and once you see it, you can't unsee it in every all-staff email that gets ignored and every campaign that gets remembered. In this episode we get the five tip framework behind stories that actually stick, from a communicator who has spent her career studying why some messages disappear the moment they're sent while others get repeated for years.Listen for:3:17 The Five-Step Framework for Sticky Stories7:12 Finding the Frustration: Real Communication Examples10:34 Break the Fourth Wall to Make Messages Memorable13:54 The Recipe for Stories People RememberGuest: Eduvie Martin, FCIPR, Past President of IABC UK and IrelandLinkedIn | Comic Republic Doug DownsSubstack | Website | LinkedIn Subscribe to the Stories and Strategies PR podcast newsletter Are you a brand with a podcast that needs support?

Why is Dr Tif Qureshi doing Blood Tests for his Patients? Should YOU? – PDP275

Your patient brushes well, avoids sweets — and still keeps getting decay. What if the answer isn't in their mouth at all? What if two inexpensive finger-prick tests told you more about a patient's gum disease and implant prognosis than anything on the radiograph? And here's the uncomfortable one: if the science is this clear, is not checking starting to look like a medico-legal risk? Especially for imlpant surgery! This is a conversation with Dr Tif Qureshi — the dentist who changed how the profession thinks about the lifelong patient, the envelope of function, and Align, Bleach, Bond. He's gone down a new rabbit hole: metabolic health. In general practice he's now doing blood tests — HbA1c and vitamin D — and making the case that the mouth isn't connected to the body, it is the body. This isn't about becoming a “biological dentist” (as you'll hear, Tif is refreshingly blunt about the wilder end of that world). It's about respecting the biology, screening sensibly, and helping patients where we're genuinely placed to help. https://youtu.be/mt1MXLFCTp0 Watch PDP275 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Test Yourself First Before you even think about introducing blood tests for your patients, ask whether you're checking your own biomarkers at a sensible interval. The deepest way to understand this topic is to learn it on yourself and your family first — run your own HbA1c, vitamin D, iron, and liver and kidney markers, and see what the data tells you. Start quarterly, like hygienist visits, then stretch to six-monthly or annual once things look good. Getting invested in your own numbers is what makes better food and lifestyle choices actually stick — and it's the honest starting point for ever offering this to a patient. What You'll Take From This Episode The metabolic lens — why one disordered glucose-and-insulin system sits under so much chronic and dental disease, and why dentistry is well placed to act on it. Sugar, redefined — why patients who avoid sweets still get decay, and how frequency of starchy carbs drives the problem. The two biomarkers that matter most — what HbA1c and vitamin D each tell you about caries, perio and healing. How to run it in practice — finger-prick logistics, what to test, and how to raise it on the medical history form. The medico-legal case — why documenting these markers can protect you before implant, graft and perio work.

What happens behind the sealed doors of a biocontainment laboratory when a patient with a suspected special pathogen—like Ebola or Lassa fever—arrives at a hospital? In this episode of Transmission Interrupted, host Jill Morgan is joined by Vicki Herrera, biocontainment laboratory training and education leader at UNMC, and Colleen Kraft, medical and laboratory director of Emory's Biocontainment Unit. Together, they break down the critical question: what are “basic labs,” and how can frontline healthcare facilities prepare to deliver essential diagnostics safely during a special pathogen event?Listen in as Jill, Vicki, and Colleen demystify the realities of emergency lab testing, exploring the tension between the rapid results clinicians want and the vital safety measures laboratorians must uphold. They discuss point-of-care devices, the nuances of risk assessments, and the keys to interdepartmental communication that ensure both effective patient care and laboratory safety.

He also discusses health disparities between men of color as compared to those who are not of color. June is Men's Health Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about the health challenges facing men and encouraging them to take proactive steps toward better physical and mental health. As conversations around Men's Mental Health Month continue to grow, Vernon closes out the month with a discussion about how cooperatives create opportunities for connection, shared responsibility, mutual support, and community engagement—factors that can play an important role in improving men's overall health and quality of life. This year's Men's Health Month theme, "Partners in Care: Advancing Men's Health Through Connection, Education, and Advocacy Across the Lifespan—for Better Lifespans," emphasizes that men's health is not an individual responsibility alone. The theme highlights the important role that families, friends, workplaces, healthcare providers, and communities play in supporting men's physical, emotional, and mental well-being throughout every stage of life. Vernon Oakes is a dedicated advocate for cooperatives who was inducted into the Cooperative Hall of Fame in 2024.

Raising Expectations with Pastor Joe Schofield, Melba Schofield, Stefanie Thayer, Dr. Craig Thayer, Dr. Paul Hall, and Ron Greer Faith, Freedom, and the Future of America A spirited conversation about America's founding principles, the responsibilities of citizenship, and the sustaining power of faith during times of national change. Guest: Janet Price, Past President of GSRW (Golden State Republican Women) Janet Price is a faith-centered civic advocate and a leader involved with Golden State Republican Women. During the conversation, she speaks about public education, constitutional awareness, election concerns, and her belief that citizens should remain informed, prayerful, and actively engaged in the future of their communities. Her enthusiasm for American history and her commitment to California shape much of the episode's discussion. Friends, We are blessed and thrilled to have Janet Price: past President of GSRW, back with us on Monday night helping us celebrate our nation's 250th Birthday and rejoice in what God is doing all around us through answered prayers! We will look back at our Founding Fathers and the sacrifices made to procure the Constitution and win an impossible war against the most powerful nation in history. She often says as people of faith know... “God is in Control!”. As a woman of great faith and leader in the creation of “Golden State Republican Women” , Janet shares heartfelt insight into the political situation and what it means to all of us in America today. Her enthusiasm is contagious and anchored in her deep relationship with God through Jesus Christ! Janet is part of our Raising Expectations family and loved by countless people of our audience in California, across the nation and around the world. The discussion and interaction will be contagious and very enlightening for everyone… so tune in , call in, watch and listen. A Celebration of Faith and American Heritage Pastor Joe Schofield, Melba Schofield, Stefanie Thayer, Dr. Craig Thayer, and Dr. Paul Hall welcome Janet Price for a wide-ranging conversation inspired by the nation's 250th anniversary celebrations. The participants reflect on Independence Day events, patriotic traditions, and the emotional significance of remembering the sacrifices made by previous generations. They also discuss the enduring influence of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the nation's founding ideals. Throughout the opening conversation, the speakers connect their appreciation for America with their Christian faith and their belief that gratitude should lead to greater personal responsibility. Remembering the Sacrifices Behind America's Freedom The panel looks back at the courage, hardship, and personal sacrifice associated with America's founding and later generations who defended the country. Pastor Joe and Janet emphasize that freedom should not be treated casually because it was secured through the efforts of people who risked their lives, families, property, and reputations. The discussion touches on George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, the Revolutionary War, and the spiritual convictions the speakers believe influenced the nation's early leaders. They encourage listeners to study history more deeply rather than relying on simplified or incomplete accounts. The participants present historical understanding as an important safeguard against manipulation, political apathy, and the loss of national identity. Education, History, and the Responsibility to Participate Janet describes her efforts to promote education about the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, flag protocol, and election integrity. She argues that many younger Americans have not been adequately taught the history of their country and may therefore be more vulnerable to misleading political messages. Stefanie adds that civic responsibility also requires participation, pointing to low voter turnout and the influence that small but highly organized groups can have on elections. The panel encourages listeners to research candidates, examine their records, and evaluate the principles demonstrated through their actions. Rather than simply complaining about political outcomes, the speakers urge citizens to vote, speak thoughtfully, and take responsibility for the direction of their communities. Speaking the Truth Without Losing Compassion A central theme of the episode is the challenge of expressing strong convictions without becoming consumed by anger or hostility. Dr. Paul Hall reflects on the dangers of silence when people recognize wrongdoing but choose not to speak, while other panelists stress that truth should be communicated with love and humility. The speakers discuss how arguments often create more conflict than understanding, especially when people feel personally attacked. Stefanie explains that she frequently returns to the Bible as her moral compass when difficult ethical questions arise, allowing the conversation to focus on principles rather than personal opinion alone. Together, the panel encourages listeners to develop courage, patience, and emotional steadiness while remaining willing to stand for what they believe. Trusting God Through Uncertainty and Cultural Change The participants share personal examples of turning to prayer when faced with anxiety, confusion, or unexpected circumstances. Janet describes beginning her day with devotionals and reminding herself that God remains in control even when current events feel overwhelming. Melba recounts moments when people unexpectedly approached her for prayer, guidance, or encouragement, reinforcing her belief that spiritual opportunities often appear without warning. Stefanie discusses surrendering her daily plans to God and allowing faith to replace the pressure of trying to control every outcome. These stories highlight the episode's broader message that believers can remain peaceful and purposeful even while confronting difficult political, cultural, and personal realities. Hope for California, the Nation, and the Next Generation As the program moves toward its conclusion, Janet asks listeners to pray for honest and principled leaders in California, greater public awareness, and protection for the president, his family, and his administration. She expresses confidence that California can experience meaningful change and that citizens are becoming more willing to question deception and demand accountability. The hosts join her in emphasizing hope rather than despair, encouraging listeners to remain engaged while trusting that lasting transformation does not depend on one person alone. The episode closes with prayer, expressions of affection among the participants, and a reminder to seek God's direction in everyday life. Listeners are invited to approach the future with courage, faith, informed participation, and a renewed commitment to serving others.

"As analysts, we have our own development - as humans, we have our own development. My view is that the work of analysis, if the developmental piece is present, requires some relatively sophisticated developmental capacity on the part of the analyst. The work is intimate, and the patient is going to know something of our inner lives, despite the fact that we work hard not to let our own selves interfere with the work. I think to truly trust the analyst, the patient has to believe that the analyst can tolerate knowing all of him or her. If you think about it, how many times have you heard patients say that nobody in the world quite knows him the way the analyst does? There's going to be something in that connection that doesn't happen anywhere else." Episode Description: We begin by outlining the distinctions between serving as a transference vs. a developmental object for a patient. Carla writes about "affective honesty," which concerns the analyst's willingness to have their heart be experienced by a patient as malevolent or compassionate based on the patient's needs. We consider similarities between child and adult work, the differences between the 'corrective emotional experience' and being a developmental object, and her sense that a patient's "intimate experience can bring structural change." She presents a clinical example where her own authentic sadness helpfully enabled the patient to recognize her own - "we take on what the patient can't bear." We close with Carla sharing her personal analytic journey and stating, "I expect I will keep searching, as that is what analysts do."   Our Guest: Carla Neely, PhD, adult and child psychoanalyst, guest faculty, Cincinnati Psychoanalytic Institute.  Past President, Association for Child Psychoanalysis. Past faculty member at the Denver Institute for Psychoanalysis and the Washington, Baltimore Psychoanalytic Institute.

If Part 1 was about the field of sexual medicine, Part 2 is about the marriage at the center of it. Dr. Jenni Skyler and Daniel Lebowitz return to their conversation with Dr. Irwin and Sue Goldstein, and this time, the questions get more personal. How do you stay married for fifty years? What does great sex actually look like across the decades? And what happens when a woman who has spent her career in sexual medicine starts experiencing low desire herself? Sue Goldstein opens up about her own journey through peri-menopause and the slow erosion of her libido- what she calls "duty sex", and the medications that brought not just her sex drive back, but a playfulness in her marriage she hadn't realized had gone missing. She walks listeners through her menopause toolbox of five treatments, explains why she's "76 and feels like she's in her 50s", and dismantles the lingering fears from the Women's Health Initiative that have kept generations of women in what she calls hormone prison. Dr. Irwin shares his own daily protocols for sexual health, why he believes most older men are leaving capacity on the table, and the surprising data from their own clinic- that more than half the Vyleesi prescriptions they write are off-label for men. They explore why dopamine is dopamine, regardless of gender. The reality of persistent genital arousal disorder. And a remarkable story of a teenage horseback rider whose chronic arousal turned out to be a herniated disc. This episode is full of practical wisdom, clinical innovation, and one of the most real conversations about long-term love you'll hear all year. The Goldsteins' secret to fifty years of marriage? Best friends, good sex, and the willingness to keep trying new things — including a chocolate sauce on the day before you change the sheets. Irwin Goldstein, MD, IF (he/him/his).

Today I'm with Bob Arrington, funeral director, Past President of the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA), and a lifelong leader in funeral service, to talk about a topic most people avoid—but one that has a profound impact on the people we love. We talk about end-of-life planning, funeral pre-planning, and why these decisions matter long before they're needed. Bob shares insights from more than five decades in funeral service, offering a clear and compassionate perspective on how planning ahead can reduce both the emotional and financial burden placed on families during times of grief. This conversation breaks down what many people don't realize: when nothing is planned, families are often left making difficult decisions in the middle of shock and loss. And those decisions can be overwhelming. Bob explains how pre-planning gives families clarity, removes guesswork, and creates space to focus on what truly matters—grieving, honoring, and remembering their loved one. We also explore how conversations around death don't have to be morbid—they can actually be one of the most meaningful ways to care for the people you leave behind. This episode is about preparation, compassion, and protecting your family—and understanding that planning ahead is not about death, but about love.

Past President of the American College of Trial Lawyers (ACTL) Fran Wikstrom joins host Vince Citro to reflect on a journey shaped as much by loading docks and dishwashing jobs as by his time at Yale Law School. He discusses how he developed a straightforward, conversational style with juries – relating to them as people rather than an audience. He shares the story of his first jury trial, a homicide case built on self-defense, where difficult facts forced him to rely on authenticity, clarity, and a cohesive narrative rather than theatrics. The conversation traces Wikstrom's journey from defense attorney to federal prosecutor to a wide-ranging civil practice, including complex patent disputes, all tied together by his ability to distill complicated cases into simple, relatable themes. He also addresses the decline of trials and the challenges it poses for developing trial lawyers, emphasizing the need for mentorship and real courtroom experience in a changing legal landscape.
