Podcasts about PD

It's go-time. The halls are getting decorated, the PD agendas are set, and you're knee-deep in first-day prep. But here's the hard truth: all that effort? It won't build alignment. And if you're not intentionally building alignment from Day 1, the best you can hope for is short-term compliance—and even that fades by fall. In this episode, I'll unpack: Why alignment feels impossible during the back-to-school scramble (and why it's not your fault) The hidden trap even good principals fall into this time of year 3 simple shifts that can turn your staff from compliant to committed—even before school starts If you've ever felt like you're working harder than ever and still not getting the traction you want, this episode will show you what to do instead #LikeABuilder.

Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova is back on the podcast to discuss the latest update of the living guideline on therapy for stage IV NSCLC without driver alterations. She shares the studies the Expert Panel reviewed in the first- and second-line settings, including NIPPON, HARMONi-2, and DUBLIN-3. Although these studies do not impact the existing guideline recommendations, Dr. Bazhenova provides context and comments on ongoing trials that will influence the next iteration of the living guideline. Read the full living guideline update “Therapy for Stage IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Without Driver Alterations: ASCO Living Guideline, Version 2025.1” at www.asco.org/thoracic-cancer-guidelines TRANSCRIPT This guideline, clinical tools, and resources are available at www.asco.org/thoracic-cancer-guidelines. Read the full text of the guideline and review authors' disclosures of potential conflicts of interest in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, https://ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JCO-25-01062 Brittany Harvey: Hello, and welcome to the ASCO Guidelines podcast, one of ASCO's podcasts delivering timely information to keep you up to date on the latest changes, challenges, and advances in oncology. You can find all the shows, including this one, at asco.org/podcasts. My name is Brittany Harvey, and today I'm interviewing Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova from University of California San Diego Moores Cancer Center, co-chair on "Therapy for Stage IV Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer Without Driver Alterations: ASCO Living Guideline, Version 2025.1." It's great to have you back on the show today, Dr Bazhenova. Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova: It's my pleasure to be here. Brittany Harvey: And then before we discuss this guideline update, I'd like to note that ASCO takes great care in the development of its guidelines and ensuring that the ASCO conflict of interest policy is followed for each guideline. The disclosures of potential conflicts of interest for the guideline panel, including Dr. Bazhenova, who has joined us here today, are available online with the publication of the guideline in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, which is linked in the show notes. So then to dive into the content here, Dr. Bazhenova, this living clinical practice guideline for systemic therapy for patients with stage IV non–small cell lung cancer without driver alterations is updated on an ongoing continuous basis. So what prompted this latest update to the recommendations? Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova: Living ASCO guidelines are designed to keep pace with rapidly evolving evidence that impacts treatment of our patients with lung cancer. As a committee, we are tasked with regular review of the published literature and determine if the new data warrants changes to existing recommendations. So in this recently published update, we evaluated new trials related to treatment of patients with metastatic lung cancer without driver alterations. Brittany Harvey: Excellent. Thank you for that explanation of the process. So, you just mentioned that the panel reviewed new trials for this update. So, which particular updated evidence did the panel review on first-line treatment options for patients with good performance status across histology and PD-L1 expression status, and how did this impact the recommendations? Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova: For the first-line treatment option for patients without driver alterations, two studies met our criteria for review. One was the NIPPON trial from Japan, the second was the HARMONi trial. None of those two trials resulted in change in our guidelines, but I think they are giving us some additional information that would be useful for the way we treat patients with non–small cell lung cancer without driver alterations. For example, if we take those patients, we currently have several treatment options as a first line. One is monotherapy immunotherapy. You can give pembrolizumab as an example, and that was based on the KEYNOTE-024 and KEYNOTE-042 trials. Then we have a platinum doublet plus immunotherapy, and there are several trials that did that pathway. And then we have also an option of giving our patients dual IO immunotherapy combination, such as CheckMate 9LA and POSEIDON. At this point, we do not have any randomized trials comparing those three treatment modalities head-to-head. And the NIPPON trial was interesting to us because it was the first trial to compare CheckMate 9LA regimen, which is again, dual immunotherapy plus chemo, versus KEYNOTE-189 or KEYNOTE-407, which is a chemotherapy plus immunotherapy. And as a result of the study, while chemotherapy plus ipilimumab-nivolumab led to numerically higher overall survival, the difference was not statistically significant. And what is concerning in that trial is that we saw a higher number of treatment-related death occurring in nivolumab and ipilimumab arm compared to the pembrolizumab-chemotherapy arm. As a matter of fact, the trial was terminated early because of the increased risk of death. If you look at the treatment-related death in CheckMate 9LA, the 9LA study reported the treatment-related death to be 2%, and then in the NIPPON trial, the treatment-related death was 7%. Why is that happening? It's really difficult to say. The study was done in Japan. Maybe there is some pharmacogenomic differences between global population and Japan population. But certainly the higher rate of adverse events needs to be taken into account. Another interesting thing about this trial is that it did not show any differences in a subset analysis for patients with squamous histology as well as PD-L1 negative tumor. So while this does not change our current guidelines and CheckMate 9LA treatment still remains an appropriate treatment option, it kind of raises the possibility that this combination could be associated with a higher toxicity. And we do have a randomized US-based trial that is ongoing, and we are hoping that eventually we will be able to answer that question after the trial will be completed. The second trial we reviewed is HARMONi-2. So HARMONi-2 was a randomized, double-blind study which is conducted primarily in China, looking at bispecific PD-L1 and VEGF antibody called ivonescimab. And that took patients who were PD-L1 positive, as defined as more than 1% expression, and patients were randomized to pembrolizumab versus bispecific ivonescimab. And the study was positive. It showed improvement in median progression-free survival of 11 months versus almost 6 months in bispecific versus pembrolizumab. There were, however, higher grade 3 events in the ivonescimab arm. At this point, we are not changing our recommendations because this trial was done in an ex-US population, and we are awaiting a similar trial ongoing in the United States before we change recommendations and decide if ivonescimab needs to be included in our guidelines. Brittany Harvey: This context is very helpful when clinicians think through the data behind these options. And it's important that the panel reviews this evidence, even if it doesn't prompt a change to the recommendations. And we'll await results of those trials that you mentioned to further inform this guideline. So then beyond those studies for first line, what updated evidence did the panel review for second-line and subsequent treatment options for patients with good performance status, and how did this impact the recommendations? Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova: So for second line, only one trial met the criteria, and that was DUBLIN-3. DUBLIN-3 is a phase 3 single-blind randomized trial comparing docetaxel versus docetaxel plus plinabulin. And the study enrolled patients with second or third line. They have to have had platinum-based chemotherapy and progressed. Plinabulin is an interesting compound. It's a small molecule tubulin binder that prevents polymerization of tubulin and appears to impact dendritic cell maturation and T-cell activation. This study enrolled 559 patients, randomly assigned them to two groups. And one important information about this study is that was a study that was envisioned before immunotherapy became a standard mainstream treatment for first-line therapy. And only 20% of patients had prior PD-1 exposure. So therefore, the results of that study need to be taken into context of this population no longer existing in the United States because we use PD-L1 inhibitors in the first line. And we saw that interesting in the plinabulin arm had lower rates of neutropenia but higher rates of serious adverse events. And at this point, we are not changing our guidelines for mainly two reasons. Number one, low number of patients that received prior treatment with first-line immune checkpoint inhibitors, as well as a modest overall survival benefit of this trial. Brittany Harvey: Understood. I appreciate you describing that study as well and why that evidence didn't prompt a change to those particular recommendations. So then, what should clinicians know as they implement this living guideline, and how does this new evidence impact clinicians and patients? Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova: At this point, none of the studies that we reviewed resulted in a change in guidelines. We are still waiting for more global results from some of the studies that I highlighted. It shows that there's still a lot of questions we need to be answering in those patients. And I'm hoping that with future clinical trials, we will be able to definitively maybe recommend one treatment over another. But at this point, all the treatments that I mentioned before remain appropriate for patients with stage IV non–small cell lung cancer without driver alterations. Brittany Harvey: Definitely. And then you just mentioned that there's still a lot of outstanding questions in this field. You've mentioned a couple different studies where we're awaiting evidence. Beyond those that you already mentioned, what is the panel examining for future updates to this living guideline? Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova: Right now, our next task is to come up with a full guidelines update. ASCO have certain rules for the guidelines committee members. And so we are gearing for a full guideline update, which hopefully will be ready by the end of 2025. Brittany Harvey: Excellent. We'll look forward to that full update of the living guideline, and we'll still await results of these ongoing trials to further inform this living guideline. So I want to thank you so much for your work to rapidly and continuously update this living guideline, and thank you for the time today, Dr. Bazhenova. Dr. Lyudmila Bazhenova: My pleasure.

People with Parkinson's disease (PD) may hear, whether through word of mouth or the internet, about herbs or supplements that claim to ease PD symptoms. It's important to recognize that nutritional supplements are not federally regulated, and there is limited research supporting their overall effectiveness. You should always speak with your healthcare provider before starting a new medication or supplement.  Nutritional supplements can include herbs, vitamins, or other drugs that are often available without a prescription. Since these products are not formally regulated, there is a high risk for potentially dangerous drug interactions when mixed with other medications, regardless of if they are prescribed by a doctor or available over the counter.  In this episode, we speak with Dr. Angela Hill, a pharmacist and professor at the University of South Florida, to better understand the precautions of taking supplements while living with PD. She discusses the potential side effects and risks of taking drugs without fully knowing what's in their ingredients, as well as the warning signs to watch for. She shares tips for reading and evaluating labels and offers guidance on the type of questions to ask a pharmacist to help decide whether the supplement may be a good fit based on your specific health condition.  During the episode, Dr. Hill mentions additional resources for evaluating herbal medications and understanding medication timing.

Mutations in LRRK2 are a common cause of familial and sporadic Parkinson's. Though clinical features resemble typical PD, about half of cases lack Lewy pathology. Doctors Hiroaki Sekiya and Nanna Møller Jensen discuss their recent studies on the neuropathology of LRRK2-PD patients. They dive into their methods and how proximity ligation assays may compare to alpha-synuclein seeding assays in identification of alpha-synuclein oligomers. Together they explain their surprising results on how alpha-synuclein oligomers may be a key early feature in LRRK2-PD. Read the first article. Read the second article.

In the first part of this two-part series, Dr. Jeff Ratliff and Dr. Claire Henchcliffe discuss the important lessons learned from these results. Show reference: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-08845-y   

In this episode, Dr. Woods reflects on a common leadership dilemma: knowing the difference between a good idea and a true priority.With so many initiatives, programs, and “must-dos” in education, it's easy to get overwhelmed or lose focus. Dr. Woods breaks down how leaders and educators can filter the noise, align their work with meaningful goals, and stay grounded in what really matters for student success.

Dr. Jeff Ratliff talks with Dr. Claire Henchcliffe about the study's key findings while emphasizing the importance of educating patients about stem cell therapies and the ongoing advancements in this field.  Read the related article in Nature. Disclosures can be found at Neurology.org.

Throwback Thursday! Student Content Creator featuring Rachelle Dene PothOriginally Released On: 3-12-2021This week, we're revisiting one of our timeless episodes from Leading Out The Woods! In this episode:✅ Rachelle shares her thoughts on students having input on the content they create in classrooms.✅ Rachelle discusses the paradigm shift from teachers being the “gatekeepers” of knowledge to more a facilitator of learning.Whether you're hearing it for the first time or revisiting a classic, this conversation is packed with insights that still resonate today.

In this week's episode, we'll learn about rapid, high-sensitivity diagnostic assays for TTP, or thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, that can reduce unnecessary treatments. After that: enhancing PD-1 blockade in relapsed/refractory extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma. In a single-arm, phase 2 study, combined CD38 and PD-1 inhibition demonstrated durable responses and manageable safety. Finally, a lymphoma horror story with a happy ending. CREBBP mutations create a zombie enzyme that competes with its wild-type counterparts. By enforcing CD40 signaling, a bispecific antibody overcomes this effect and induces lymphoma cell death.Featured Articles:Rapid ADAMTS13 activity assays for thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura: a systematic review and meta-analysisEfficacy of combined CD38 and PD-1 inhibition with isatuximab and cemiplimab for relapsed/refractory NK/T-cell lymphomaBlunted CD40-responsive enhancer activation in CREBBP-mutant lymphomas can be restored by enforced CD4 T-cell engagement

Are you telling yourself the story that “clients can't afford my fee”? In this episode of the Private Practice Podcast, I break down the common money stories and mindset blocks that keep women in private practice stuck in undercharging, overworking, and feeling undervalued. If you've ever doubted your pricing, questioned your worth, or worried about raising your fees—this episode is a must-listen. I'll walk you through the evidence-backed truth about affordability using the bell curve principle and explain why 88% of people can afford your fee. The real issue? You're likely not communicating the value of what you offer in a way that resonates. You'll learn how to set your fees using the Mind-Business-Spirit approach, including practical business strategies (hello spreadsheets and projections), how your thoughts shape your income, and how to stay aligned with your soul purpose while running a sustainable practice. I also share the behind-the-scenes thinking that went into creating Practice Momentum—my high-touch program for therapists who want more clients, more income, and more freedom without doing more. If you've barely got clients, feel stuck or invisible, or are on the verge of burnout, this was made for you. Action Step for a Quick Win: Use the simple formula I share to calculate your session fee based on your business expenses and personal income goals. Awareness is the first step toward aligned pricing. Links:

Where do you exercise? Is there a place you can take classes specific for people with Parkinson's? Is it convenient? I know of only a handful of cities where there is a one stop fits all approach to PD wellness. Most are created and managed by someone stepping up and doing the work to make it happen for their community and beyond. I am excited to highlight some of these magical places where people with Parkinson's take classes designed for their needs, provide social support, and community. I am thrilled to bring. you this first magical place. It is in the greater the Austin, TX area and on their YouTube chamnnel. Power For Parkinson's was founded by two women, Dr. Nina Mosier and Susan Stahl. They both had fathers with Parkinson's and saw a need, so they found a way to provide research-based exercises while offering them for FREE. With nine locations, the classes are very accessible. Add in the YouTube channell with available streaming and on demand videos all for free, well that is magical. After listening to my guest today, you are going to want to have a similar opportunity in your area as well.

Episode 586: Pickup and Delivery Games Episode release date is July 9, 2025   Show Notes   This week we kick off our discussion of pickup and deliver games. So, we are going to line up a bunch of games and choose some to discuss. Intro of Meeple Nation The World's Most Okayest Podcast Web Page Become a Chanameeple Links to Episodes SaltPOD: A SaltCON Podcast Bios Email us at MeepleNation@gmail.com Patreon Instagram @meeplenation Facebook Meeple Nation Facebook Group Meeple Nation Off Air X Meeple Nation Discord Meeple Nation   Sponsorship Game Toppers  SaltCON   Meeple Nation Gaming Highlights (Highlight-Thirty) Nathan Sequoia Sequoia is a quick, light dice-rolling and area majority game where players compete to grow the tallest trees in 11 different "forests." Objective: Have the tallest tree (most tree tokens) in as many forests as possible to score victory points. Over 10 turns, all players simultaneously roll five dice. They then secretly form two pairs from four of those dice (leaving one die unused). The sum of each pair determines which "forest" (numbered 2-12) they can place a tree token in. Strategy: You have to decide whether to focus on a few forests to dominate them, or spread your efforts to secure second-place consolation prizes. After 10 turns, the player with the most trees in a forest gets the first-place points, and the second-place player gets a smaller consolation prize. Ties are resolved with special tie-breaker rounds. Quick and Portable: Sequoia is known for its fast gameplay (around 10-15 minutes) and small box size, making it easy to bring to game nights. Switchback Switchback is a quick and engaging tile-laying board game where players are trying to create the longest continuous paths of numbers (representing hiking trails up a mountain). Score the most points by having your "hikers" on tiles that form continuous numerical sequences of four or more tiles. Players take turns placing a tile from their hand onto the board. After placing a tile, they either place one of their hikers on that tile, or "buddy up" two of their hikers for a future double move. You'll constantly be making choices like: Where to place your tile to extend your own paths or block opponents. When to place a hiker versus buddying them up for a better placement later. Whether to join an opponent's path to share points or create your own. At the end of the game (when all tiles are placed), only hikers on paths of four or more consecutive numbers score points. Simple rules but tough decisions, all with a quick playtime (10-20 minutes).   Douglas Tiny Epic Cthulhu   This week we are kicking off our discussion of pickup and delivery games. The "Pick-up and Delivery" (P&D) mechanic in board games is a core gameplay loop where players acquire specific items or units from one location on the game board and then transport them to another designated location to complete an objective or earn points. It's a fundamental concept that simulates logistics, trade, and transportation challenges within a game's theme. Here's a breakdown of its characteristics and how it's used: Core Characteristics of Pick-up and Delivery: Goods/Passengers/Resources: There's always something to be picked up. Pick-up Locations (Sources): Designated spots on the board where the goods originate. These can be: Fixed locations: Factories, farms, cities, ports. Player-controlled locations: A player's own production buildings. Dynamically generated: Cards drawn that specify a pick-up point. Delivery Locations (Destinations): Designated spots where the goods need to be dropped off.  Movement/Transportation: Players use their game pieces (vehicles, ships, trains, pawns representing workers) to move from the pick-up location to the delivery location. This often involves: Movement costs: Spending actions, money, or specific movement points. Route planning: Deciding the most efficient or strategic path. Obstacles/Competition: Other players, terrain, or events that impede movement or make certain routes less desirable. Capacity Limits: Players usually have a limited capacity for how many items they can carry at once, forcing strategic decisions about what to pick up and when. Reward/Completion: Successfully delivering an item typically grants: Victory points: The most common form of reward. Money or resources: To fund further actions. Unlocking new abilities: Access to new routes or upgrades. Advancing on a track: Progressing towards an endgame condition. The P&D mechanic is incredibly versatile and appears in many genres: Logistics and Trade Games: Theme: Often about managing a transportation network or economy. Economic Games: Theme: Focus on resource management, production, and supply chains. Adventure and Quest Games: Theme: Characters embarking on journeys, completing tasks, or rescuing individuals. Worker Placement Games (often integrated): Theme: Players assigning workers to perform actions. Overall, the Pick-up and Delivery mechanic adds a layer of logistical challenge and strategic depth to board games, forcing players to think about movement, resource management, and timing to achieve their objectives.   Pickup and Delivery Games Dead Men Tell No Tales Space Dealer Century: Golem Edition - Eastern Mountains Escape Zombie City Forbidden Desert Maglev Metro The Witcher: Old World Pirates Cove Waste Knights: Second Edition Evacuation Pandemic Legacy Season 2

Welcome back to another episode of School Counseling Simplified! Today, I'm joined by a special guest, Sarah Lovell—an executive function and ADHD coach who brings so much value for both our work with students and our own professional and personal lives. Sarah Lovell (she/her) is an executive function & ADHD coach for college students, ambitious professionals, overthinkers, and recovering perfectionists who are tired of feeling stuck and are ready to work with their brains, not against them.  With 11 years of experience, Sarah helps clients who try tool after tool… only to burn out or blame themselves when nothing sticks. She helps you understand why it's so hard to get started (even on things you want to do!) and make sustainable changes in a way that feels good.  Sarah's background in social work grounds her work in compassionate practices, believing self-talk and self-care are the foundations for executive functioning. Along with 1:1 coaching, she runs a membership, Stuck to Started, that gives you extra support and accountability. She also hosts From Stuck to Started podcast, where she shares realistic, actionable strategies in 20 minutes or less.  When Sarah isn't coaching, she enjoys trail walks with her dogs, snuggling up with tea and a good book, and paddleboarding.  Summer Summit Replay Access Did you miss Summer Summit? It's not too late! When you join IMPACT, my monthly membership for school counselors, you'll get access to all of the Summer Summit session recordings, along with PD hours. Sarah's session is one you don't want to miss. She shares how nervous system regulation supports executive functioning and practical tools to apply these strategies in your life and with students. Sneak Peek: Sarah's Summer Summit Session In her session, From Overwhelmed to Organized, Sarah discusses the connection between executive functioning and nervous system regulation: When our nervous system is dysregulated, it becomes hard to access our executive functioning tools. Self-talk is a foundation for executive function, but regulation must come first. She walks through tools for both hyperarousal (anxiety, fight/flight) and hypoarousal (low energy, disconnection), including: Breathing and grounding exercises Somatic movement, like balance or tapping Separating planning from action to reduce overwhelm A Day in Sarah's Life Sarah supports a wide range of adults: college students, women with ADHD, entrepreneurs, and business owners. She holds 1:1 coaching calls, runs a supportive membership, produces podcast content, and handles the daily marketing and admin needs of her business. Advice for Counselors “Self-talk is the foundation!” Whether you're feeling stuck, procrastinating, or overwhelmed, it starts with self-awareness. Understand the difference between procrastination and being stuck. Take a pause, name what you're experiencing, and give yourself credit along the way, not just when you meet the goal. Bonus: Free Live Training This July! School is starting soon, and I'm offering a free live training on how to use a Meet-the-Counselor lesson to connect with students and advocate for your role! You'll get a PD certificate and a ready-to-use lesson.

Eventually, all signs pointed to his mother, 22-year-old Leilani, and after weeks of searching through mounds of trash in a landfill, pieces of the toddler were finally recovered.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Materials: https://www.wjcl.com/article/quinton-simon-home-up-for-sale/46306130 https://www.wjcl.com/article/quinton-simon-landfill-search-murder-trial/62674115 Leilani Simon asks for new trial, is transferred to prison Leilani Simon sentenced to life with possibility of parole in death of her son Quinton Oruta Ruth Simon (2021-2022) - Find a Grave Memorial New findings released following investigation on Georgia's foster care system Quinton Oruta "Ruth" Simon Obituary (2022) | Savannah, Georgia ‘My baby's not dead': Heated exchange between grandmother, babysitter of missing Georgia toddler caught on camera | WSAV-TV Grandmother of Quinton Simon sentenced to 10 days in jail for violating court order Babysitter ‘very concerned' about Quinton Simon as mother's trial continues in his killing Quinton Simon family home in Savannah on the market One year anniversary of Quinton Simon's disappearance Quinton Simon | WSAV.com Day 8 of Leilani Simon murder trial ‘Heartbreaking': Day 7 of Leilani Simon murder trial focuses on search for Quinton's remains Week 2 of Leilani Simon murder trial opens with FBI testimony Day 5 of Leilani Simon murder trial Memorial set up outside of toddler's home as investigation continues Leilani Simon murder trial day 4: Prosecution paints picture of abuse for toddler Quinton | FOX 5 Atlanta Leilani Simon, Sentenced to Life for Murder of 20-Month-Old Son, Wants Child's Remains Given to Her Brother Quinton Simon: Grandmother of Slain Tot Calls FBI After Accused Murderer Mom Checks out of Rehab Hours Before Arrest – Crime Online Quinton Simon: Babysitter reveals odd text before toddler's disappearance | The Independent Savannah Murder Trial: Babysitter Testifies Against Leilani Simon Its been almost 2 years since Quinton Simon died.

What if the leadership phrases we rely on—like “clear is kind”—are actually holding us back? In this thought-provoking episode, Casey Watts, educational consultant and creator of the Clarity Cycle Framework, challenges conventional leadership wisdom and invites us to rethink how we lead, grow, and collaborate. We explore how faux collaboration is silently stalling school progress, how to recognize real growth beyond promotions, and the importance of embracing both vertical and lateral leadership opportunities. Casey shares powerful insights into how school leaders can move from surface-level clarity to deep, impactful communication—and how to build cultures where professional growth and authentic teamwork truly thrive. Tune in for a refreshingly honest look at what it means to lead with intention, clarity, and courage in today's schools. About Casey Watts Casey Watts is a Team Leadership Expert and the founder of Casey Watts Coaching & Consulting, LLC. With over 20 years of experience as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and district leader, she's seen how a lack of clarity—not effort—is what keeps teams stuck. Drawing from her time in schools and her own leadership journey, Casey created the Clarity Cycle Framework to help leaders build capacity, improve retention, and create dream teams (on purpose). She now speaks, coaches, and consults nationally, equipping leaders with tools that lead to real alignment and lasting impact.

TWiP solves the case of the pregnant woman from Tanzania with dehydration and 3 weeks of bloody stool, a situation that would confuse Ockam but not Dr. Hickam.

The new PD 8th Edition is posted on our website so please download a copy and extra points to anyone who can tell us what that is on the cover. Three individuals are involved here with a rather impressive travel history. We have a mom, a daughter and a son who reach out for guidance. Initially one of them found something small dark and about the size of a poppy seed embedded in their skin. This led to a more involved investigation where they found that all three had similar findings but some of these were larger, some a bit larger, one was actually described as mobile. They all feel fine and report no skin rashes. They have a number of concerns about what these are, if they might carry disease, what to do about removing them and should there be testing or treatment. The interesting travel and exposure history. They report that just prior to this they spent a week on a remote island off the coast of Scotland with extensive hiking in tall grass and boggy areas with deer, rabbits, and lots of sheep. An Island called Harris and Lewis and then just that Saturday hiking in wooded areas around Loch Ness and in the Cairngorns. Sunday out hiking and running on Long Island and then Wednesday when these mystery objects were found they had just been hiking and going for a run in Cape Cod. They report on Cape Cod the trail they followed had a fallen tree and they had to crawl underneath it prompting this skin inspection. -lots of questions here…  What might these be and how do we identify them? Is the travel history relevant? Are there any timing issues that impact what we do? Should we try to remove these and if so how? Any testing or treatment indicated?

Throwback Thursday! Mindfulness Awareness for Educators featuring Danielle NuhferOriginally Released On: 5-31-2024This week, we're revisiting one of our timeless episodes from Leading Out The Woods!

Welcome back to School Counseling Simplified! This week, I'm sitting down with Elissa Hughes, a middle school counselor who shared a standout presentation during Summer Summit. If you didn't get a chance to attend live, don't worry—Summer Summit recordings are available inside the IMPACT membership, along with PD certificates and hundreds of other school counseling resources. Elissa Hughes is a middle school counselor with experience at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. She is a member of her school's attendance committee, focusing on tiered supports, student engagement, and family communication. Elissa is passionate about creative, practical strategies that build positive habits, foster resilience, and strengthen connections between schools and families. She is a certified RYT-200 yoga instructor with additional training in children's yoga and enjoys weaving mindfulness into her work to support student well-being. She holds a Specialist degree in Professional Counseling, a Master's in School Counseling, and a double major in Psychology and Sociology. In today's episode, Elissa walks us through how her team approached improving attendance this school year through a tiered, relationship-driven strategy—and saw real results. In this episode, Elissa shares: Tier 1 Strategies: A fun, low-effort incentive program involving 7th period attendance tracking and Dairy Queen Blizzard rewards (yes, Dairy Queen donated them!). Teachers submitted attendance data daily, and one class per grade level was rewarded with a treat. Tier 2 Support: A more individualized approach focused on understanding student and family challenges around attendance. Elissa discusses the importance of genuinely getting to know students, building trust, and having honest conversations with families to problem-solve together. She walks through common barriers like anxiety, transportation, trauma, and basic needs, and how to respond with empathy and actionable support. Results: Their school's chronic absenteeism rate dropped significantly within just one year. Elissa credits this to consistent team collaboration, community involvement, and a mindset focused on connection over compliance. Elissa also shares: What her daily schedule looks like as a middle school counselor, including mindfulness groups, classroom lessons, and flexible student support Her team's collaboration with counselors, a social worker, and a family engagement coordinator, and plans to integrate PBIS more deeply next year Practical tips for embedding student wellness practices throughout the school day Advice for New School Counselors:  "Always try to see things from another person's perspective and point of view." Elissa reminds us that the foundation of strong counseling work is empathy, curiosity, and a willingness to learn from the lived experiences of others.
