How to Successfully Navigate the Mil Spouse Life – Alison WoehrmanThere is so much more to someone's identity than what a podcast title suggests. Meet Alison Woehrman, who is not only a 20-year mil spouse, but also a mother, strength and conditioning coach, and podcast host.After college, Alison spent almost 10 years as a dolphin and sea lion animal trainer with the Navy Marine Mammal Program. After several PCSs, and due to the fast-pace of her husband's Navy career, Alison and her husband made the decision that she would stay at home with their two children. Alison and I talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly of the military spouse life. It can be fun and exciting while also being lonely and isolating. While the military member has their identity connected to their military branch, a mil spouse is often forced to recreate themselves and their lives with every move.  With 8 cross-country moves in 20 years, Alison has become a pro at this! From building a career and community within the health and fitness space to launching her own podcast, Alison has become an expert out of necessity. We talk about all of this and more in this episode! Alison is married with two children and currently lives in Denver, CO with her husband, a 20-year Navy veteran. Alison just launched her own podcast, The Unspoken Life of the Military Wife. To connect with Alison:The Unspoken Life of the Military Wife podcast: https://podbay.fm/p/the-unspoken-life-of-the-military-wifeInstagram Page: https://www.instagram.com/alisonsfitfamily/ To connect with Erin:Life After the Uniform Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/lifeaftertheuniformLife After the Uniform Facebook Podcast Page:https://www.facebook.com/ErinSilverPodcastInstagram Page: https://www.instagram.com/erinsilverpodcast/Moving help resource mentioned in this episode:https://www.hireahelper.com/

Most of us already know the story behind the herbivore man not wanting sex or relationships with women in Japan. But we also know that human beings have sexual needs that we can't simply walk away from. So pornography in Japan caters to almost any and all sexual fantasies from normal to depraved. And I was shocked to hear that only yesterday Japan banned the possession of photographic images of child pornography. And this was due to international pressure to do something about that problem. And I'm putting a link in the description below for you to read on the subject. But in this video I want to explain how sex crimes and pornography are related to each other because in Japan the availability of pornography from the nineteen sixties and nineteen seventies on-wards might have actually reduced the amount of sex crimes in that society. Critics will say women are reporting sex crimes less because it reduces their chances of finding a husband. But as marriage rates have continued to fall the idea that women in Japan are hiding their abuse because it can effect their future prospects is kind of silly. With the rise in industrialization in Japan in the late nineteenth century Japan started imposing Western ideals governing the pornography. The government of the Meiji era started the Meiji Restoration in 1868 and started imposing restrictions on human sexuality. As a result communal male and female nude bathing were forbidden in the Japanese bath houses. The Japanese went Victorian with their attitude towards sexuality. Sexuality and the human body became something to be ashamed of instead of enjoyed. As the body became taboo the birth rate in Japan began to rise. If you make the body and sexuality forbidden people will crave it more then ever and the way I see it they will start having more sex and not less. As a result people will start getting married more because they need an outlet for their pent up sexual desires. With the birth rate rapidly declining in Japan it was only a time before they started taking more radical actions against pornography or any other personal liberty that threatens the state. Pornography is a liberty that deprives the government of future citizens because current citizens choose not to have children. It takes about twenty to thirty years for the consequences to become apparent. In Japan print pornography started expanding rapidly in the nineteen seventies and nineteen eighties. Anime porn was everywhere as a result. Women getting penetrated by giant squid like monsters without their permission.

Show Notes | June 1, 2021 | Episode 105 Have you ever been caught in the experience paradox? It's when you can't get the required experience from not having enough years of experience in the first place. Frustrating! That's where milspouse Ellen Harrison found herself after staying home for 7 years to raise her small children. Same for Army wife Kimberly Grant-Holliday, who had gaps in her resume from frequent PCSs, all while homeschooling her 3 children. After discovering VirtForce, Ellen and Kimberly underwent online training, became certified, and ultimately got #hired at QuickBooks Live and TurboTax.  Last year, Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, QuickBooks and Mint, partnered with VirtForce in an effort to hire more military spouses like Ellen and Kimberly. Since then, Intuit received a lot of feedback about how milspouses would love to be a bookkeeper with QuickBooks Live, but they can’t fulfill the 1 year of experience requirement. So, Intuit decided to take action and do something about it.  Intuit is putting an end to the experience paradox by CANCELING the 1 year of bookkeeping experience requirement for its remote QuickBooks Live bookkeeping roles. Intuit has heard military spouses' struggles with resume gaps, so they are partnering with Coursera to offer a FREE 80-hour, self-paced bookkeeping course that will replace the 1 year of experience requirement for the military community.  Tune in to hear more about how this major player is listening to the challenges of military life and setting a new standard for the bookkeeping industry.

Anthony Gantt and the birth of At Ease Rentals:  Anthony is a smart Marine Corps officer  who saw an opportunity and jumped on it. He was changing duty stations (in military terms, “PCS” or permanent change of station) and when he turned in his reimbursement request, it was denied.  Why? He had stayed in an Airbnb instead of a hotel.  Anthony had made several PCSs before and never had a reimbursement be denied, and this really burned him up.  So he began the process of getting the rules changed.  We hope you will find this interview along with interviews with   Kevin Rhea and CL Reed to be educational.  He began the paperbound process of changing government regulations and had a breakthrough.  After a surprising meeting with some government travel officials, he notified the military that he was going to work on a platform that would be an OTA (online travel agency, like Airbnb) for the military.  This platform would be one that meets all the various rules for military and civilian government travel.  It would allow federal travelers to stay in short term rentals if they so choose.  And the other side of the platform works by inviting vacation rental managers and individual STR hosts to list on the platform.  The result is his platform At Ease Rentals. Debi asked him about new hosts on his platform, and about safe travel.  Anthony says that bookings are difficult for travelers of color.  Hosts would often reply that the dates were not available. Frustrating. And looking out of place in a given neighborhood, for example.  But of all the cities he’s traveled to, he finds Orlando to be the model for a good vacation rental experience.  He feels that it’s not so much about safe travel as just having to deal with prejudicial bias. Debi asked if Anthony knows about Airbnb’s changes such as not showing the picture until the reservation is made. She also made the point that it seems like no other OTAs besides Airbnb seem to address the issues of discrimination and bias, and while Airbnb hasn’t cracked the code altogether, they at least make earnest attempts to solve the problem.   Anthony spoke about his four daughters, teaching them to be proud and that the only thing that can bring us down is divisiveness.  Anthony made the point that diversity just adds higher returns on the investments. From his standpoint, Anthony sees us as Americans first, like I’m American, African descent. American, Italian descent etc.  He doesn’t really like the term like Black American.  American first. What can I do to be a contributing member of society? We need to be the beacon and the role model for the rest of the world.   Debi asked, how can we make guests feel more comfortable?  Anthony's response:  You can’t fix stupid. If I told you no green eyed person could stay in this house on the lake, you’d be upset.  It’s like that. Everyone wants the same thing and be able to book a place without worrying about anything. Debi  brought up Krhea’s comment that it’s weird when people say they “don’t see color”.  Anthony said it would be like “I don’t see women.  I see everyone as a man”.  We just want to go to a booking platform and book.   Debi mentioned her picture on her listing websites that says “all are welcome here, no matter your…..”  Anthony recommends to look at stock photo site PEXEL. Stock photos of everyone. His point is, use these pix of diverse people with your listing, which is a GREAT idea.  Anthony  just got goosebumps.  Wanting to reach different travelers, he went to groups on Instagram - black people travel a lot. Anthony talks about spouses of military being 95% women; he looked at their Pinterest and came to a realization of how to market: PINTERIST! Anthony talks about how hard he’s working on the company, and said he’s acting like it's one of the 20 hour deployments he knew of from previous military assignments, to work on At Ease while he's a full time marine. Deb asked about the meaning of “walking when black”. His answer was that you have different concerns depending on the situation, like if you're in a mall, high end store, there are eyes that automatically come to you about shoplifting. Traveling while black, you can’t wear sweatshirt and hoodie, and at work while black, is it ok to let hair naturally grow out or is is non professional or not serious.  He went to a golf thing, one of the guys had an NBA mask, but none of them are basketball athletes, one of the ladies asked if they were from the NBA, even though most were not exactly athletic anymore... Talking to his kids:  Anthony  tells them to be aware of what's going on.  If it’s negative, figure out how to get out of the situation.  The one thing that can protect you is education. You have to be aware of the situations you’re in.  Strive to be an American first, who happens to look like that. LINKS: https://www.facebook.com/ATEASERentals/ At Ease Rentals

Quick Notes  A whistle-stop tour through the history of psychological and medical approaches to sex and gender in the 20th century. This episode gives background and context to the formation of WPATH (World Professional Association for Transgender Health) and today's “affirmative model of care” for gender issues.  Extended Notes A little bit of history about gender transitions over the decades. The medical and psychological theories behind gender transition have always been controversial. Why would someone struggle with their gender? Which gender roles should you raise your children in? Sasha shares a case that happened with twin boys, and one transitioned into a girl in 1965. The outcome was not great. People played God on a child. In 1965, only 3% of surgeons took sex change requests seriously. However, by the 70s, these surgeries were commonplace. People pushed for experimental interventions too soon without having long-term data. Instead of saying “should we do this?” doctors said, “can we do this?” No one knows why a trans person exists. A psychologist would be asking questions to figure out this key piece. It wasn't until the 2010s that you'd see a huge uptick in gender dysphoria. Both Stella and Sasha break down why they like Dr. Zucker and the research he's conducted on child gender issues. There are so many variables. It's hard to know or pinpoint what makes a child want to transition. Objectively, it may be better to have people come to terms with their biology vs. going through a very risky medical path. There is a heavy medical burden when you try to transition. It is not an easy thing to do. Even certain trans people admit that, if you can avoid it, you would be better. Sasha shares a gender study that used hormone blockers on children for two years and the reports they found. What is the psychological impact of puberty blockers? The criteria to see if you have gender dysphoria in the DSM, 5 out of 8 of them use outdated and stereotypical gender roles. Like if the boy or girl likes playing with the opposite sex toys. There is such a thing as a placebo effect. Sasha shares another study where 4.5% of males ended up dying from the gender intervention. What's crazy is a lot of these studies are deemed to be successful. Someone dying is not a success. It's a tragedy. From a medical and psychological perspective, there is a big difference between how you treat gay or lesbian people vs. how you treat a trans person. The treatment for a trans person is to take drugs till the day you die. The treatment for being gay is to live your life. How young is too young to get a child to transition? How do you talk to young people about their gender? It can be quite troubling the different doctors' approaches on the matter. There doesn't seem to be any studies showcasing why intervening early is going to be good for the long term wellbeing of a gender dysphoric child. You're halting the development of a young person, we should take that seriously. Feeling distressed about your body? There might be something else going on and it might not just be strictly gender, to begin with.

This is a reading from the 2020 NEC of Article 705 Interconnected Power Production Sources, which features 705.11 Supply-Side Source Connections, 705.12 Load-Side Source Connections and the new in 2020 705.13 Power Control Systems (PCS). 705.13 is new and will be very useful for making interconnections, so that we are not limited by the options in 705.11 and 705.12. When we have very smart electronics coordinating the currents, such as with smart load centers, CTs and smart inverters, PCSs can make sure our busbars do not melt. Artificial Intelligence anyone? For someone who is just learning about PV or energy storage and has no idea about the NEC, this might be overwhelming, or at least a way to get familiar with the terminology while falling to sleep.

Her desire to find flexible work that could fit into her military lifestyle is what inspired her to create TTS. Tiny Troops Soccer is a year-round, developmental soccer program that focuses on teaching the fundamentals of the game as well as developing gross motor and social skills, body and spatial awareness, and the ability to thrive within a group setting. This is accomplished through fun games and activities that are specifically designed to support proper early childhood development. TTS is inspired by military families, with the goal of not only providing flexible employment opportunities for military spouses, but also providing flexible sports for military kiddos. In this episode, Amy shares with Kimber how she went from a position working for the Jacksonville Jaguars to moving across the country and coming up with the idea for Tiny Troops Soccer. Like many of us, Amy knew that she needed flexible opportunities while she balanced frequent PCSs, being mother to three boys, and the general craziness of military spouse life. So who is Tiny Troops Soccer looking for? Unfortunately for some of us, they do require that you have some soccer experience. They have what Amy calls, “Soccer Integrity,” and want to make sure that their coaches have at least a basic understanding of the game so they can best support and coach their troop. However, it’s okay if you haven’t played in awhile!  Most importantly, they are looking for coaches who are fun, silly, and willing to put themselves out there. If you think this describes you, it’s very likely that you have a place on Soccer Island. Time commitment can vary per week, anywhere from 3-8 hours. You are able to set your schedule but you need to be able to have a consistent schedule for the first three weeks of the month. Tiny Troops Soccer is currently hiring at bases nationwide, and is preparing to launch programs overseas. If you don’t see your base listed, Amy encourages you to still apply. They are always open to launching programs at new bases.  For tips and tricks for applying, as well as an insider tip to prepare for an interview, make sure to listen and subscribe to our podcast.

Her desire to find flexible work that could fit into her military lifestyle is what inspired her to create TTS. Tiny Troops Soccer is a year-round, developmental soccer program that focuses on teaching the fundamentals of the game as well as developing gross motor and social skills, body and spatial awareness, and the ability to thrive within a group setting. This is accomplished through fun games and activities that are specifically designed to support proper early childhood development. TTS is inspired by military families, with the goal of not only providing flexible employment opportunities for military spouses, but also providing flexible sports for military kiddos. In this episode, Amy shares with Kimber how she went from a position working for the Jacksonville Jaguars to moving across the country and coming up with the idea for Tiny Troops Soccer. Like many of us, Amy knew that she needed flexible opportunities while she balanced frequent PCSs, being mother to three boys, and the general craziness of military spouse life. So who is Tiny Troops Soccer looking for? Unfortunately for some of us, they do require that you have some soccer experience. They have what Amy calls, “Soccer Integrity,” and want to make sure that their coaches have at least a basic understanding of the game so they can best support and coach their troop. However, it’s okay if you haven’t played in awhile!  Most importantly, they are looking for coaches who are fun, silly, and willing to put themselves out there. If you think this describes you, it’s very likely that you have a place on Soccer Island. Time commitment can vary per week, anywhere from 3-8 hours. You are able to set your schedule but you need to be able to have a consistent schedule for the first three weeks of the month. Tiny Troops Soccer is currently hiring at bases nationwide, and is preparing to launch programs overseas. If you don’t see your base listed, Amy encourages you to still apply. They are always open to launching programs at new bases.  For tips and tricks for applying, as well as an insider tip to prepare for an interview, make sure to listen and subscribe to our podcast.

It’s something we all want, but how many of us have actually found it? And if we’ve been lucky enough to find it, have we found a way to make a career out of it? US VetLife founder and Army veteran Scott Tucker has not only found his passion and purpose but he is out there every day sharing it with the world. USVetLife is an amazing company that is innovating both the financial and employment spaces for military families. Scott is all about financial wellness. There is a shocking statistic out there that the average military family gets out of the service with only $5,000 to their name. We are so used to benefits taking care of us and, honestly, our financial education isn’t working. Here is the goal: learn how to use our money. We should be positioning ourselves financially for the eventual transition out of the military. There has never been a time like this in the history of the world, where so much information and access is available to us. But here is the catch - you have to want to go out and find the information and opportunities. Then, once you find it, you have to ask. Ask for help, ask for explanations. So how do we tackle this? Scott suggests a modern, proactive approach. “Do we want to leave it to the government? Are we happy with the efficiency of our PCSs or do we want to take control of it our own selves?” I think we all know the answer to this. In regards to finding and following your purpose, Scott says the key is to find a sustainable interest. Once you have that, think about how you can monetize it and make it a career. The more you can customize and find your niche, the more likely you are to align your passion to income. This is truly one of the most exciting conversations yet on the podcast. We cover everything from strategizing financial solutions for your family to overcoming depression and finding your purpose.

Run-DMC (Joseph "Run" Simmons, Darryl "DMC" McDaniels, and Jason "Jam Master Jay," Mizell) was more than just a hip-hop group. They were a force of nature that transformed music, fashion, and history. Their deceptively simple, endlessly catchy lyrics and energetic live performances made them stars, and their use of rock and roll samples helped to break down the barriers between the two genres.In this special bonus Hip-Hop 50 episode of The Story Behind the Song, Peter Csathy talks to McDaniels himself about the group's history, their impact on popular culture, what it means to be a hip-hop legend. Of course, they also go into the story behind what is often cited as one of the greatest hip-hop songs of all time, "It's Tricky." Also, the two discuss Darryl's upcoming appearance at the Park City Song Summit where Darryl will be on a panel with Public Enemy's Chuck D to discuss hip-hop's 50th anniversary.This episode is co-presented by the Park City Song Summit.
