    Pregnancy should be a time of joy and anticipation, but for thousands of American women each year, it becomes the most dangerous period of their lives. In this eye-opening conversation with Professor Elizabeth Tobin-Tyler of Brown University, we explore the shocking reality that homicide is a leading cause of traumatic death for pregnant and postpartum women, accounting for 31% of maternal injury deaths.Professor Tobin-Tyler draws on her unique background spanning both law and public health to explain how pregnancy often triggers escalating violence in abusive relationships. When an abuser's need for control meets the shifting attention and resources that accompany pregnancy, the results can be deadly—particularly for Black women, who die at five times the rate of white women from homicide during pregnancy.We dive into the complex systems that fail pregnant survivors, from healthcare settings where brief appointments and the presence of abusers make disclosure difficult, to legal frameworks that inadequately protect women from armed abusers. The conversation explores innovative solutions like medical-legal partnerships that bring lawyers into healthcare settings to address both medical and social determinants of health simultaneously.The ripple effects of this violence extend far beyond individual families. Children exposed to domestic violence face lifelong health consequences, creating an estimated $8 billion annual economic burden across healthcare, education, and criminal justice systems. Despite these staggering costs, funding for research and services continues to face cuts.You'll come away from this conversation with a new understanding of how Medicaid access, firearm regulations, and community-based services can save lives, along with practical advice for supporting pregnant survivors in your own community. Professor Tobin-Tyler challenges us all to stop normalizing violence against women and to recognize pregnant women as valuable human beings in their own right—not just as vessels for their children.

    Sunnie Ray: sMothered in Recovery | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this deeply moving episode of The Hopeaholic Podcast, Sunnie Ray, a dynamic reality TV personality, entrepreneur, author, and passionate advocate for recovery and animal welfare, opens up about her extraordinary journey through addiction, trauma, and triumph. Best known for her heartfelt appearance on TLC's sMothered, where she highlighted her close relationship with her mother, Eva, Sunnie has built a multifaceted career as a stand-up comedian, radio host, and the host of The Sunnie Ray Show on Amazon, produced by Nerd Thug Radio. Having survived two overdoses before age 21 and battled postpartum depression exacerbated by prescription drugs like Xanax, Sunnie faced multiple relapses before achieving sobriety on Valentine's Day—a milestone she credits to divine timing. This pivotal moment inspired her to write a book, released on her sobriety anniversary, and to establish Rewind, a nonprofit dedicated to animal welfare. Raised in a household blending three major religions—Catholicism, Judaism, and Islam—Sunnie grappled with a sense of isolation and childhood trauma that shaped her early years, including incidents that left her in fear. Despite enduring profound losses, including the suicide of a friend of 24 years and multiple deaths linked to substance abuse, Sunnie's resilience shines through as she channels her experiences into advocacy, making recovery relatable and inspiring.#TheHopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover  #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #RecoveryIsPossible #Hope #wedorecover Join our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Follow the Hopeaholics on our Socials:https://www.instagram.com/thehopeaholics https://linktr.ee/thehopeaholicsBuy Merch: https://thehopeaholics.myshopify.comVisit our Treatment Centers: https://www.hopebythesea.comIf you or a loved one needs help, please call or text 949-615-8588.

    Send us a textThis week I talk about the types of sports, exercise, and training you can and can't do whe you're pregnant.This on the back of someone asking me if Olympic Lifting is a good sport to get in to.The do's and don'ts of exercise during pregnancy usually get massively exaggerated. As always, it isn't really rocketscience.I am talking about this and going through all levels; whether you're already training or not. What to do if you're an athlete, how to adapt your training to still keep improving during pregnancy. And, of course, for people new to exercise who just want to have a healthier pregnancy, labour and postpartum period.I'm covering all the bases so enjoy!! As always; HPNB still only has 5 billing cycles!So this means that you not only get 3 months FREE access, no obligation! BUT, if you decide you want to do the rest of the program, after only 5 months of paying $10/£8 a month you now get FREE LIFE TIME ACCESS! That's $50 max spend, in case you were wondering.This means you can sign up after your first child, use the program and recover and then still have access after giving birth to child 2 and 3!None of this "pay X amount a year" nonsense, once you've paid..you've paid!This makes HPNB not just the most efficient and complete post-partum recovery program, it's also BY FAR the best value.Though I'm not terribly active on  Instagram and Facebook you can follow us there. I am however active on Threads so find me there!

    In this episode, I chat with Erin Azar (@immrsspacecadet) about what it took to go from quitting everything she started to training for—and finishing—her first marathon. Erin opens up about running postpartum, the mental battles that came with starting from zero, and how documenting her journey online helped her stay consistent when things got hard. We talk about what it felt like to run in a body that didn't feel like hers, how working with a coach changed her approach, and what it was like to train for a marathon during the early days of COVID. Erin also shares what finally helped her break the cycle of giving up, what fueling strategies worked (and didn't), and how the Galloway method led to a breakthrough PR. If you've ever struggled with consistency, self-doubt, or starting over, this conversation is a reminder that slow progress is still progress—and it can take you farther than you think.
