Podcasts about pathways

#253: Farmer, researcher, and author Helen Atthowe has spent 40 years building soil ecosystems that feed themselves while offering their own, living biologic controls In this conversation with Dave Chapman, she explains how living pathways - strips of cover crops and mulches between beds and orchard rows  - can replace tillage, fertilizers, and pesticides. Drawing from her experiences with Masanobu Fukuoka, and her own long-term experiments in Montana and Oregon with her late husband farmer Carl Rosato, Helen shares what it means to farm in partnership with nature rather than against it.https://realorganicproject.org/helen-atthowe-living-pathways-living-mulch-253The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

#946 | Ed and Dharnish reflect on United's recent run, using the games against West Ham and Wolves as a lens to assess where Ruben Amorim's side is making progress and where problems persist. They dig into tactical patterns, selection decisions, and how absences for AFCON are exposing the limits of the squad. The conversation broadens into the issues shaping United's season – financial constraints, January options that look more theoretical than realistic, and the ongoing tension between short-term fixes and long-term planning. There's also a discussion on the club's relationship with its academy, why pathway matters culturally as well as competitively, and what it says about United when young players are trusted – or overlooked. The episode also covers the women's team's recent struggles, a positive note from the Youth Cup win over Peterborough, and the emergence of JJ Gabriel as a player to watch. The show closes with a look ahead to Bournemouth and growing concerns about depth as the calendar tightens. 00:00 Introduction 02:03 Looking back on West Ham and Wolves 07:21 Assessing Amorim's Progress 12:22 United's Financial Situation 17:36 January Transfer Window 27:51 Women's Team Update 30:57 Youth Cup and JJ Gabriel 36:16 Bournemouth Preview 46:18 World Cup Ticket Prices 53:30 Wrap Up If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

After an extended break, Kris and Melon reunite behind the microphones for a powerful and deeply honest conversation. Life hasn't exactly taken it easy on either of them during the time away, and this episode dives straight into the real-world challenges that have tested their leadership, their resilience, their emotional regulation, and ultimately—their commitment to keep pushing back chaos. • Leadership Under Fire Kris and Melon open up about situations that forced them to lead under pressure, make hard calls, and stay grounded while others leaned on them for stability. • Family Hardship & Unexpected Tests Both share personal updates about family struggles and the emotional weight that comes with wanting to protect, guide, and serve the people you love most. • Emotional Regulation & Dysregulation They unpack moments where they rose to the occasion… and moments where they didn't. This is a raw and relatable look at how even seasoned leaders have to continually train the emotional muscles. • Coaching, Mentorship & Being the Student Again The guys reflect on recent coaching conversations—both the ones they've given and the ones they've needed. They explore how mentorship shapes their pathways forward and why humility remains non-negotiable in personal growth. • Building Healthy Pathways Forward From habits and mindset to faith and support systems, Kris and Mellon detail the intentional choices they are making to move forward with strength, clarity, and purpose—not just for themselves, but for the people they lead. A Special Update: Australia Awaits The episode closes with something long overdue—Kris's upcoming trip to Melbourne to ring in the New Year with the McFadden clan. The two share their excitement, some friendly banter, and what they hope this long-awaited rendezvous will mean for their friendship, their families, and the future of Pushing Back Chaos. Why This Episode Matters Episode 98 is not a highlight reel. It's a reminder that chaos never truly disappears—but with honesty, accountability, brotherhood, and faith, we can always push back. This conversation invites listeners to reflect on their own leadership, their own struggles, and the intentional choices they can make to step into healthier, stronger versions of themselves.

Chris Holman welcomes Karley Abramson, Research Associate-Health Policy, Citizens Research Council of Michigan, Livonia, MI, but working out of Lansing. Welcome Karley, remind us about the Citizens Research Council of Michigan and your role at the CRC? Your new report connects social determinants of health directly to Michigan's economic performance. What should business leaders understand about how poor population health affects workforce productivity and long-term competitiveness? Michigan's health outcomes are lagging behind neighboring states and even international peers. From a business perspective, what are the cost implications—such as absenteeism, healthcare spending, and labor force participation—of failing to address these root causes? The research shows a strong link between financial resources and health outcomes. How might Michigan employers play a role in improving these conditions through wages, benefits, or community investment strategies? As the report highlights the interconnectedness of social determinants of health, what partnerships between the private sector and policymakers could most effectively improve health and economic prosperity statewide? If Michigan wants to reverse deteriorating trends, what business-aligned policy changes or corporate practices does your research suggest could move the needle the fastest? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ Lack of Financial Resources Central to Michiganders Lagging Health Outcomes New Research: Social Determinants of Health: Pathways to a Healthier Michigan Livonia, MI, Nov. 18, 2025 – Citizens Research Council of Michigan today released exhaustive research that drills down to root causes of why Michiganders suffer from worse health outcomes than our fellow citizens in comparable, neighboring states, across the U.S., and among our international peers. The report, Social Determinants of Health: Pathways to a Healthier Michigan, outlines what Social Determinants of Health are and how they directly affect individual residents, Michigan's economy, and the state's future. Financial Resources as Pathways to Health Outcomes Policies in Michigan, like many other states, focus on the health care industry or individual health issues, but to impact health outcomes, policymakers need to consider a wider range of solutions, which is where Social Determinants of Health come in. The all-encompassing nature of Social Determinants of Health can make it difficult for policymakers to translate them into tangible actions. This report unpacks Social Determinants of Health by focusing on the evidence-based fundamental resources that are necessary for individual health: Financial Resources; Health Care; Food and Nutrition; Safety; and Social Support. “Each of these categories covers a vast number of overlapping issues and their interconnectedness is central to any discussion about health policy,” said Eric Lupher, Citizens Research Council president. “The centrality of financial resources – education, employment, and income – is the story of Michigan's lagging health outcomes.” ### Founded in 1916, the Citizens Research Council of Michigan works to improve government in Michigan. The organization provides factual, unbiased, independent information concerning significant issues of state and local government organization, policy, and finance. By delivery of this information to policymakers and citizens, the Research Council aims to ensure sound and rational public policy formation in Michigan. For more information, visit www.crcmich.org.

L-arginine is usually treated as a simple nitric-oxide precursor, a molecule with a narrow vascular role. But across multiple lines of research, it keeps appearing in places it shouldn't: improving cerebral blood flow in older adults, shifting cognitive performance, and, most unexpectedly, altering how amyloid-β proteins aggregate in the brain. This episode unpacks why these effects are so unusual, and how they connect to the long-standing arginine paradox: the biochemical mismatch between how much arginine the body already has and how much it still seems to respond to.The goal: reveal how one seemingly ordinary amino acid can influence two entirely different biological domains (vascular regulation and protein-folding dynamics) and clarify what is supported in humans, what remains strictly preclinical, and how diet or supplementation can realistically support the pathways where arginine does matter.00:00 Introduction to Unexpected Research Findings00:49 The Multifaceted Role of L-Arginine02:09 The Arginine Paradox and Protein Misfolding03:25 New Research on Arginine and Amyloid Beta07:05 Practical Applications and Dietary Recommendations09:23 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsPMID: 28179487PMID: 10759111PMID: 35498050

Thinking of moving to the USA as a dentist? Wondering what exams, applications, and documents you'll need to practice or specialize there? Curious about how much it costs — and what life as a dentist in the States is really like? Dr. Hazel Kerr and Dr. Dorrin Reyhani join Jaz for a deep dive into everything you need to know about moving to America as a dentist. Both UK-trained and now faculty at UPenn, they share their personal journeys and break down the full pathway — from exams like the INBDE and TOEFL, to transcripts, personal statements, and application timelines. They also discuss what it's like working in the US compared to the UK, including earning potential, patient culture, and training opportunities. Whether you want to complete an advanced standing program, pursue a specialty, or bring your skills back home, this episode gives you a clear roadmap to make it happen. https://youtu.be/Ro9dljETKpc Watch IC065 on YouTube Key Takeaways The journey to becoming a dentist varies significantly by country. Specializing in dentistry can open more opportunities than general practice. Board certification enhances professional status and may offer insurance benefits. International dentists have specific routes to practice in the US. Scholarships can significantly reduce the financial burden of dental education. Teaching positions can provide pathways to practice without additional costs. Faculty primarily teach and supervise dental students in clinics. Early preparation for the INBD exam is crucial for success. Clinical experience and a strong portfolio are essential for applications. Networking and externships can enhance application prospects. Understanding the application process can alleviate stress for international students. Cultural differences impact how dental care is valued and perceived.

What if the problem is not your motivation to recover, but a system that makes eating disorder treatment almost impossible to afford? In this conversation, I sit down again with Leslie Jordan Garcia @liberatiwellness. Leslie is a wellness strategist, certified eating disorder recovery coach, and Treatment Access Program Manager at Project HEAL. In this episode, we discuss real, concrete pathways to free and low-cost eating disorder care. We also talk about why you cannot separate eating disorder recovery from social justice, intersectionality, and body hierarchies. Leslie breaks down how Project HEAL removes financial and systemic barriers, how people from marginalized communities can apply, and how providers can join the Healer's Circle to offer justice-focused, values-aligned care. In this episode, we talk about What Project HEAL is and how it works to remove financial and systemic barriers to eating disorder care in the United States The four major Project HEAL programs and how to apply for: Community Care groups for BIPOC folks Cash assistance that covers tertiary costs like rent, pet boarding, and transportation Outpatient treatment placement with sliding scale and pro bono providers Insurance navigation support and help with single case agreements Who qualifies for Project HEAL services, including people in all U.S. states and territories, and how they prioritize folks from communities that are historically and systemically marginalized How Leslie matches people with “unicorn providers” who are fat positive, HAES aligned, queer affirming, trauma aware, and non Christian based when needed The difference it makes when someone helps you navigate insurance, access care, and complete applications, especially when executive functioning is low or things feel overwhelming How economic precarity, layoffs, food insecurity, and shifting insurance policies are driving an uptick in applications for eating disorder treatment assistance Why intersectional, identity affirming care is not optional in eating disorder recovery, especially for BIPOC, queer, trans, disabled, and fat clients How Leslie's social justice consulting work with universities, community colleges, and health organizations helps them: Reimagine intake forms and client facing processes Address promotion and salary inequities Create transformational circles where teams talk about harm, stereotypes, and systemic barriers How body hierarchies, food moralization, school fitness testing, and lunch shaming fuel eating disorders for kids and adults Why many people use eating disorders as a survival tool in the context of trauma, capitalism, surveillance, and unsafe systems What true equity and belonging could mean for decreasing the occurrence and severity of eating disorders About our guest: Leslie Jordan Garcia Leslie Jordan Garcia is a wellness strategist, certified eating disorder recovery coach, and social justice consultant dedicated to healing and liberation. She holds dual master's degrees in business and public health and has more than a decade of experience across military, public health, and nonprofit sectors. Through her practice, Liberati Wellness, Leslie offers HAES aligned eating disorder recovery support, inclusive movement support, and equity and identity affirming care. Leslie also partners with organizations like Austin Health Commons and the Hogg Foundation to embed equity and justice into health systems and helping professions. She currently serves as the Treatment Access Program Manager at Project HEAL, where she manages cash assistance and treatment placement and works to match clients with values aligned, culturally responsive providers. You can find Leslie's coaching and consulting work at Liberati Wellness and on Instagram at @liberatiwellness. Inside Project HEAL's pathways to care In this episode, Leslie explains how Project HEAL supports people who are struggling with eating disorders and facing financial and systemic barriers to treatment. She walks us through the main programs: Informed ED (for professionals) A learning program for clinicians and dietitians who are newer to eating disorder treatment. It helps them build skills, reduce harm, and align their work with justice focused values so they can better support clients whose eating disorders are uncovered in general mental health or medical settings. Community Care A free, BIPOC only, 8 week support and process group focused on body liberation, community care, and healing from white supremacist body hierarchies. Cash Assistance Program A program that does not pay individuals directly, but instead covers tertiary costs that often block access to care. This can include rent, transportation, pet boarding, or other essential expenses so that people can actually attend the level of care their team recommends. Treatment Placement Leslie coordinates outpatient treatment placement, connecting people with dietitians, therapists, and other providers who offer sliding scale or pro bono care, especially when insurance does not cover enough dietitian sessions or mental health support. Insurance Navigation Project HEAL helps people understand their insurance benefits, locate in network providers, and pursue options like single case agreements when an appropriate provider is out of network. Leslie also mentions a time limited clinical assessment program for people who know they are struggling in their relationship with food and body but have never had a formal diagnosis. All of these services are free to applicants, and one application can cover multiple programs at once. Who can apply to Project HEAL Leslie shares that Project HEAL is U.S. based, and that includes all 50 states, Alaska, Hawaii, and U.S. territories such as Guam. Anyone in those locations can apply. Project HEAL prioritizes people from communities that have been historically and systemically marginalized, including: BIPOC communities Queer and trans communities People in larger bodies Disabled and chronically ill folks People navigating religious trauma and other layered identities Leslie's role includes reading applications through an intersectional lens, tracking diversity demographics, and making sure that people who face the largest gaps in access are not overlooked. She also notes that if the application itself feels overwhelming, Project HEAL can connect applicants with someone who will help them complete it, which is especially important when executive functioning is low. Intersectionality, social justice, and eating disorder recovery Throughout the conversation, Leslie and I look at how eating disorders are never just about appearance. They are deeply tied to: Trauma and chronic stress How we perceive our bodies and how we believe others perceive our bodies Economic instability, job insecurity, and food insecurity Surveillance of bodies in workplaces, schools, and medical settings Racism, anti-fat bias, ableism, transmisia, and other forms of oppression Leslie talks about clients who restrict food so their children can eat when jobs cut hours, and how people in larger bodies often avoid eating at work because of constant surveillance and judgment, only to experience intense hunger and binge episodes later. We explore how body hierarchies, moralization of food, school fitness testing, and lunch policing create conditions where an eating disorder can become a primary coping strategy. Leslie describes how, over time, this can become deeply embedded, with the brain chemistry colluding with the eating disorder to create a sense of safety that the larger system fails to provide. For Leslie, social justice work is inseparable from eating disorder work. If people had secure access to food, safe housing, living wages, and genuine body equity, many would not need to rely on eating disorders to feel safer, visible, or invisible. Justice work inside systems Leslie also describes her justice work with institutions, including: Facilitating Transformational Circles where diverse team members connect as humans and then talk honestly about processes that exclude or harm people Supporting clinics that operate in queer neighborhoods yet do not see queer clients, and helping them examine what in their client facing processes is pushing people away Working with community colleges on salary and promotion inequities, examining reviews, ranking systems, and feedback processes that keep certain groups from advancing Helping organizations rework intake forms, policies, and internal culture so that equity, belonging, and justicebecome real practices rather than buzzwords She reminds us that what often gets labeled as “DEI” is actually about justice, accessibility, and belonging for everyone, including veterans, people who breastfeed, people who need ramps and accessible bathrooms, and more.

A memorandum of understanding (MOU) between Alberta and the Canadian federal government was signed on November 27, 2025. It declared a shared goal of making Canada a global energy superpower by building one or more privately financed oil pipelines, co-owned with Indigenous Peoples, to ship at least 1 million barrels per day of low-emission Alberta bitumen, prioritizing routes to Asian markets, and submitting an application to the Major Projects Office by July 1.   Building the pipeline requires building the large-scale oil sands Pathways carbon capture and storage (CCS) project. Alberta and the federal government will also engage with the Government of British Columbia on the pipeline initiative. Among other commitments, the MOU pledges to suspend the Canadian Electricity Regulations (CER) as they apply to Alberta and to scrap the proposed nationwide oil and gas emissions cap for producers. Further details are expected to be finalized by April 1. To unpack this tectonic shift in Alberta–Ottawa relations—along with the first wave of media coverage and the deal's potential benefits for Canada —Peter and Jackie are joined by guest Deborah Yedlin, President and CEO of the Calgary Chamber of Commerce. Content referenced in this podcast:Canada-Alberta Memorandum of Understanding (November 27, 2025) Angus Reid Institute Polling on Support and Opposition for Alberta-BC Pipeline (November 27, 2025) CBC At Issues Panel on Carney's Alberta Pipeline Partnership (November 28, 2025)Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/ Check us out on social media: X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research Institute Subscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

otes:Melissa completed her PhD after two decades of operational work, bringing a pracademic perspective to cyber profiling and offender pathways.Her research focuses on understanding the human behind the keyboard through developmental history, motivation and lived experience.Initial motivations among hackers often centre on curiosity, challenge seeking and belonging rather than financial gain.Many participants reported early interest in technology, solitary online activity and experiences they described as destabilising events.Melissa distinguishes between lawful and criminal pathways using indicators such as modifying games, low self-control and a history of property offending.Her work highlights misunderstandings about intent, the role of gamification and the abstraction of harm when offending takes place online.She argues that cybercrime is a societal problem requiring early education, parental and teacher capability building and partnerships with tech and gaming companies.Diversion programs are essential to guide youth with technical interest toward prosocial cybersecurity roles rather than criminalisation.About our guest:Dr Melissa Martineauhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/melissa-martineau-369bb5258/https://www.captechu.edu/webinar-series-melissa-martineauPapers or resources mentioned in this episode:Martineau, M.

Are you chasing transformation through peak experiences, but feeling ungrounded afterward?In this solo episode of The Vital Point, Jonathan Schecter introduces a powerful framework: Pathways and Portals. With clarity, heart, and the wisdom of experience, he explores the difference between the slow, sustainable power of daily practices (the Pathway) and the explosive, disrupting nature of peak experiences (the Portal).Drawing from his journey through Somatic Experiencing, psychedelics, meditation, and guiding clients in his Blue Magic Alchemy community, Jonathan makes the case for integrating both approaches. He unpacks common pitfalls in modern spiritual culture—like seeking instant breakthroughs and neglecting the hard inner work—and offers a grounded vision for embodied, lasting change.He also previews his upcoming 2026 four-part course series built around this framework.

In Part 2 of our two-part series with Juan Martinez — founder of JMS Soccer and president of DKSC — we move beyond the academy structure and dig into the deeper layers of development that parents rarely see. Juan opens up about the realities of North Texas soccer culture, the misconceptions around “connections,” and how he uses his network not as a selling point, but as a responsibility to serve disciplined players who put in the work.Juan explains what it really takes for an athlete to earn his recommendation, why truth and accountability matter more than hype, and how he keeps kids grounded while helping them chase college, national team, or professional opportunities. We also explore character development, moral skills, parental influence, pathways beyond club soccer, and why the dream must belong to the player — not the parent.If you're a soccer parent trying to understand the real pathway from ages 12–14 to college or pro, Part 2 delivers the unfiltered truth.

Summary: Book a Free Talent Strategy Call In this episode, Tyler Bloom sits down with Ryan Bain, one of the very first NYSTA Greenskeeper apprentices, and Sue VanAmburgh from the New York State Turfgrass Association to unpack how the apprenticeship program is reshaping career pathways in golf course maintenance. They walk through Ryan's non-traditional journey from business/marketing graduate and landscaper to assistant and emerging leader in turf, and how an "open-minded" superintendent at Noyac Golf Club took a chance on potential over pedigree. Sue then pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to administer a statewide apprenticeship: communication with employers and SUNY Delhi, onboarding expectations, time management, and what happens when apprentices fall behind… or move on. Together, they tackle the questions superintendents and club leaders quietly worry about: Who is actually a good fit for an apprenticeship? What kind of employer environment is necessary? What if it doesn't work out? Along the way, you'll hear how the program balances classroom learning with on-course reps and how networking, peer support, and vendor participation can turn apprenticeship into a true workforce-development engine for the industry. What You'll Learn: Non-traditional backgrounds can be high-ceiling hires. Ryan had limited turf experience but a formal business degree, landscaping background, and clear drive - exactly the kind of profile most clubs overlook but this program is built to serve. Apprenticeship is a partnership, not a recruitment gimmick. NYSTA and SUNY Delhi emphasize that employers should identify someone already on their team they want to grow, then wrap structure, education, and support around that person. Structure + communication make the program work. Clear expectations (3–5 hours of coursework per week, a dedicated apprenticeship director, check-ins between employers, SUNY Delhi, and apprentices) keep the workload manageable and progress on track. It's not for everyone - on both sides. Apprentices need motivation, self-awareness, and a long-term growth mindset. Employers need the bandwidth and desire to mentor, not just get another set of hands on a mower. The hidden ROI is networking and leadership development. Cohort connections, in-person labs at SUNY Delhi, and peer group texts help apprentices feel less isolated — and give emerging leaders like Ryan a platform to coach the next class.

…with Dr. Marc Skelton. In this episode we bridge the gap between classroom practice and psychological theory to share actionable strategies for fostering student success. Drawing on years of teaching experience to research at the University of Warwick, Marc breaks down what truly drives student engagement. Marc introduces us to Paulo Freire's "banking model" of education, and advocates for a shift to active, meaningful learning where students are co-creators of knowledge. The core of the conversation centres on Self-Regulated Learning (SRL), exploring Barry Zimmerman's three phases: Forethought (planning), Performance (the "missing middle" of self-monitoring), and Self-Reflection (learning from experience). We then dive into the Transformative Power of Goal Setting, emphasizing that success requires both Agency ("I can do this") and Pathways (concrete plans). Learn about the impact of Goal Diaries and the critical role of Meaningful Talk and Social Support in sustaining motivation. Finally, we discuss how educators can redefine success by celebrating Achievement (personal growth) over mere Attainment (grades), creating classrooms where every student thrives. Bullet points:  Dual role of the speaker as a teacher and researcher in educational psychology. Journey into teaching mathematics and interest in educational psychology. Exploration of student motivation and engagement in learning. Influence of Paulo Freire's pedagogy and Albert Bandura's agency theory on educational practices. Development of a tutor time program focused on metacognition and self-regulated learning. Insights from research on definitions and perceptions of learning among students and teachers. Distinction between attainment (external measures) and achievement (personal significance) in education. Importance of self-regulated learning, goal setting, and meaningful communication in enhancing student motivation. Findings on the impact of social interaction and support on students' goal achievement and well-being. Advocacy for integrating psychological principles into educational practices to foster meaningful learning experiences.

Having committed to the ambitious target net zero by 2070 and 50 per cent energy from green sources, India would need transition planning across sectors. The most important planning would be in the electricity sector which would need to decarbonise faster than any other sector. This transition would depend on India's ability to produce round-the-clock clean energy, or 24/7 carbon free energy (24/7 CFE), at cost and scale to meet the country's rapid economic development. But it faces the challenge of grid management and conducive energy planning which would integrate renewable energy across the power systems of the country. To understand one such model of 24/7 CFE, we spoke with Irfan Mohamed, South Asia Analyst at climate analytics nonprofit TransitionZero to delve into the concept of 24/7 CFE and why, according to TransitionZero's modelling, 24/7 CFE planning and procurement is a ‘no regrets' option for India's energy planners, grid operators, and corporates. Irfan is an energy modeller and analyst with multiple years of experience in modelling electricity markets. Before joining TransitionZero, Irfan worked at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero developing decarbonisation policies for the UK.Full transcript of the episode is available in English.Presented by 101ReportersIrfan Mohamed is on LinkedIn.Follow TIEH podcast on Twitter, Linkedin & YouTubeOur hosts, Shreya Jai on Twitter, Linkedin & Dr. Sandeep Pai on Twitter, Linkedin

In this rich and heartfelt conversation, Amy Wheeler sits down with Canadian yoga therapist and author Leila Stuart to explore her life's journey through yoga, Ayurveda, chronic illness, and the groundbreaking field of experiential anatomy.Leila shares how yoga first saved her as a 19-year-old in debilitating back pain, again when chronic fatigue and inflammatory arthritis nearly ended her career, and finally when Ayurveda and Panchakarma restored her vitality. Through these challenges, she developed a unique approach to anatomy—one that goes beyond memorization to help people truly feel their bodies from the inside out.Together, Amy and Leila unpack the profound role of interoception (the ability to sense internal states), the therapeutic power of somatics, and the importance of teaching anatomy as a lived experience.

Let's talk about something most of us have struggled with at some point - acne that just won't quit.You've tried the skincare, the supplements, the “clean” eating, and still, your skin seems to have a mind of its own.In this episode, I sat down with Katie Stewart, holistic nutritionist and host of The Clear Skin Chronicles, and we had the most down-to-earth conversation about acne, the kind you wish you'd heard years ago.Together, we unpacked so much of what women are experiencing right now when it comes to breakouts and hormone changes, and why clear skin has way more to do with what's happening inside your body than what you're putting on it.Here's what we get into:How birth control, gut health, and detox pathways all connect to hormonal acneThe five pillars Katie uses to help her clients heal their skin from withinWhy emotional health is the most overlooked piece in every healing journeyThis is such a refreshing, honest chat about acne, hormones, confidence, and the things no one explained to us when we were teenagers, standing in a drugstore aisle, grabbing whatever promised fast results.Pop in your earbuds and listen to this week's episode of the Happily Hormonal Podcast. You'll walk away with a whole new understanding of what your skin's been trying to tell you.NEW Private Podcast - 3 Steps to Making Hormones WellBook a FREE Hormone Strategy Call with meCONNECT WITH KATIE:PodcastIG: @katiestewartwellnessNEED HELP FIXING YOUR HORMONES?
