“Delicious, decadent, and utterly diabolical. No one serves up a scandal like Asha Elias,” writes author Kirsten Miller about this writer, mother, and reluctant socialite. Asha's acclaimed debut novel, Pink Glass Houses, is a seductive social satire about the wealthy PTA moms of an elite elementary school in Miami Beach. We read it and loved it. Her much-anticipated second novel, The Namaste Club is another delicious page-turner about rich people behaving badly, set among the wellness industrial complex, rich ladies doing yoga, and all things fabulous and Florida. It drops next month with a third in the pipeline as part of a multi-book deal with HarperCollins. Asha graduated from the University of Miami with a degree in print journalism then, fresh out of college, landed at Ocean Drive Magazine, where she spent a decade in ad sales and promotion, becoming intimately familiar with the crazy underbelly of the singular South Beach scene. During this time she became an accomplished yogi. When her first child arrived, Asha opted to be a stay-at-home mom for a few years. Until the lifelong itch to write her first novel became too strong to ignore. Asha has contributed to Cosmopolitan magazine and is currently the sex and dating columnist for Miami New Times. She lives with her family in Miami Beach, Florida.Have a Swan Dive to share?

Men and their obsession with powerful women - EP 58

When Karen Lynch became CEO of CVS Health, it was more than a milestone, it was a signal. Millions were watching. She led through the pandemic. She raised wages. She centered the patient. She broke glass ceilings again and again. “I remember the day Karen became CEO,” says host Laurie McGraw. “I think the world stood still for a minute. I smiled. I took notice. And so did everyone else.” The accolades poured in: Forbes Most Powerful Women, Fortune's Most Admired. But the impact went far beyond headlines. This conversation isn't just about what Karen accomplished at the top—it's about the experiences that shaped her long before she got there, and the values driving how she leads today. Like many leaders, Karen's path was forged in her beginnings. For her, those beginnings were marked by unimaginable loss: losing her mother to suicide at age 12, and just a decade later, losing the aunt who raised her. That grief left an indelible mark—a sense of urgency to fix a healthcare system she had experienced not as a leader, but as someone failed by it. That lived experience has been her North Star. From her early days in finance to leading one of the largest healthcare organizations in the world, Karen has consistently asked: What does the patient need? And how can we make it simpler?  As a leader, she learned that courage isn't a talking point, it's a practice. And sometimes, it means making a hard decision that costs you. When her tenure at CVS ended, it wasn't scandal. It wasn't a failure. It was a choice, grounded in accountability. Because real leadership isn't just about celebrating the wins—it's about owning the moments that hurt. Now in a chapter of reinvention, Karen is clear: she's not stepping back, she's stepping into purpose. From helping future CEOs find their voice, to launching a women's leadership institute, to urging healthcare leaders to rebuild public trust before it's too late, she is focused on impact over position. The title may be different. The mission is not. In this episode of Inspiring Women with Laurie McGraw, Karen also speaks about: What would healthcare look like if we designed it around the patient? Can simplicity heal what complexity has broken? How do we rebuild public trust in healthcare—and what happens if we don't? How can we better prepare the next generation of women leaders? Is technology the single most powerful lever for healthcare transformation? What does it take to navigate reinvention with optimism, purpose, and grace? Thank you Karen Lynch.

We are beyond delighted to have Rachel Halverson a part of the Not Just a Patch team. She has already done a mini podcast series about Powerful Women in Diabetes - so we thought it was time to ask her about her story. Expect to hear & see her more on our channels.

Many modern Western cultures don't have a deep understanding of land as a source of collective identity, story, or purpose. There is a sense that, yes, land can be lovely—but it is mainly seen as a source of recreation or extraction, not necessarily as an integral part of what shapes us and future generations.   In this guided practice, Indigenous scholar and teacher Yuria Celidwen introduces a fresh way to consider our connection to the natural spaces around us. This is a practice that invites reverence, gratitude, and belonging, where our experience of the earth moves from being strictly transactional to being interconnected and relational.  This meditation is part of our Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement series, where we're sharing guided practices from the women featured in our 2025 special edition of Mindful magazine.   If you'd like the transcription of this guided meditation, it will be online on Mindful.org next week.  Curious about the many benefits of being a member?

The Exodus Way E13 (Bonus Interview) — The exodus from Egypt was a foundational story for ancient Israel, but without a special group of seven often overlooked women, the exodus would have never happened!

In a world that glorifies the hustle, the most powerful thing a woman can do is hold stillness. Not check out. Not shut down. But root deeper into herself. Because when you learn to become the governing energy of your life— rather than reacting to everyone else's—you become magnetic. Grounded. Unshakeable. That's exactly what I'm diving into on this week's podcast episode. We'll explore: Why most women unknowingly abandon their power (and how to stop) The real reason your energy feels scattered—and how to reclaim it What it actually means to lead yourself How to cultivate unwavering clarity—even in the midst of chaos Why stillness isn't something you “fit in,” it's something you lead from Where to Connect: WEBSITE:  https://shyamalakiru.com  BOOK A 1-MONTH PRIVATE INTENSIVE:  https://www.shyamalakiru.com/the-intensives FREE PRECISION-MANIFESTATION SERIES: https://www.shyamalakiru.com/opt-in

What if power didn't have to be loud—and grace was your secret strength? In this episode of Surviving Roots, host Cari Fund sits down with Julie Helms, global business leader and viral content creator, to explore what it really means to communicate with grace, lead with confidence, and set boundaries without losing your kindness. Julie shares her incredible journey from being the “Pitbull in Pumps” in the male-dominated oil & gas industry to becoming a powerful voice on composed communication and elegant authority. Together, we unpack how to stop walking on eggshells, what graceful strength looks like in real life, and how to handle everything from fubs (phone snubs) to backhanded compliments with confidence and composure. Whether you're navigating difficult relationships, trying to find your voice, or just want to feel more grounded in how you show up—this episode is your masterclass in grace, grit, and authentic power.

We've been told self-care is selfish, indulgent—even unnecessary. That being a “good woman” means putting everyone else first and clapping for ourselves last. But what if real self-care isn't a luxury—it's a radical, world-shifting, life-saving act of rebellion?In this episode, I'm joined by Shelly Tygielski, author of Sit Down to Rise Up and founder of Pandemic of Love, a mutual aid movement that's provided over $100 million in direct aid. Named one of Mindful.org's “12 Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement,” Shelly is here to help us rethink everything we thought we knew about self-care.We talk about the toxic messages that keep women burned out and worn down, the myth of positive thinking, and how showing up for ourselves—fully and unapologetically—is the foundation of showing up for anyone else. Because self-care isn't about escape. It's about power. It's about choosing yourself on purpose.In This Episode, We Cover:✅ Why self-care is an act of activism—not selfishness✅ The real reason “positive vibes only” can be toxic✅ How to opt out of burnout culture and still get sh*t done✅ The difference between self-soothing and true self-care✅ Creating community care alongside personal care✅ What it really looks like to walk away from the tightrope (and the circus)Self-care isn't selfish. It's a revolution. And it starts with you.Connect with Shelly: Website: http://www.shellytygielski.comBook: https://a.co/d/j8gsf7MIG: http://www.instagram.com/mindfulskatergirlFB: http://www.facebook.com/shellymeditationRelated Podcast Episodes:Why We Brush Off The Idea Of Self-Care with Dr. Christine Coleman | 223156 / Cell Care with Dr. Monisha BhanoteHow To Eat Lunch with Cheryl K.

Mahisha Dellinger, star of “Mind Your Business with Mahisha,” a business show on Oprah Winfrey's Network, pioneered the natural hair care market when she launched CURLS in 2002, a leading organic hair care company that took the natural hair movement by storm. Her journey to the top didn't come without its own set of challenges. Riding the wave of her success seemed effortless from the outside looking in. The taxing demands of entrepreneurship coupled with the stressors of trying to balance it all, while having it all resulted in her search for a way to “power through.” “Like millions of women, I often drank to cope. As life continued to happen & my day-to-day pressure increased...so did my drinking. This daily habit was beyond what any medical professional deemed safe. I knew I needed to make a change for not only me, but for my children. I have this large family that Iove, I have to be around for them…I want to be around for my grandkids. I began to search for a non-alcoholic, functional cocktail that I could enjoy when I needed to wind down. More importunately I was looking for a cocktail that would protect and repair my liver, aide in gut health, and detoxify my body. Impossible right? Not at all…the rest was Huzzy history!” Dellinger crafted Huzzy Smart Sips with a curated list of liver protecting properties, detoxifying antioxidants, and a proprietary blend will help of euphoric enhancing ingredients that'll keep you in high spirits all night long. Every Huzzy sip was made to rejuvenate & protect your liver, cleanse your system, aide your gut and invigorate your vitality. Now she drinks Huzzy Smart Sips to relax and revitalize her body, naturally. Dellinger is an official member of the Forbes Business Council and was appointed a Small Business Advisor for their entrepreneur community. Black Enterprise awarded Dellinger the 2023 Business Disruptor award. Entrepreneur named her 1 of 100 Powerful Women in the US. She served as a keynote speaker for a host of organizations across the nation including Yelp, AT&T, PepsiCO, Black Enterprise Women of Power & their Vision 20/20 Entrepreneur Conference, Essence Fest, Fast Money, Entrepreneur Magazine, and more. Dellinger has also been featured on several television shows throughout the nation and has been seen on OWN, BET, Revolt TV, Good Morning America, etc.. Mahisha's mantra, “To whom much is given, much is required” led to the founding of her MBA style program & non profit, Black Women Making Millions Academy, that is set to help 25,000 businesses scale with over $450 million dollars' worth of free resources to African American women all over the nation.

Being in pain makes being present extra challenging.  On a physical level, being in the present moment while our body is in pain is often extremely unpleasant. There is a part of us, understandably, that wishes we could escape from it entirely.  At the same time, the experience of pain itself can be overwhelming—to our senses, our thoughts, our emotions. It can feel like drowning, when what we long for is just a moment of peace to rest in.  In today's guided meditation, longtime meditation teacher and pain expert Vidyamala Burch offers a tender practice to find a middle way—one that doesn't lean into denial or give in to overwhelm, but rather allows all that is happening to be gently met, as Vidyamala says, with “wholeness, integration, and kindliness.”    This meditation is part of our Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement series, where we're sharing guided practices from the women featured in our 2025 special edition of Mindful magazine.  If you'd like the transcription of this guided meditation, it will be online on Mindful.org next week.  Curious about the many benefits of being a member?

Traditional meditation practices can sometimes be frustrating and alienating for those who are neurodivergent. Bodily discomfort or intense mental restlessness can make even the most mindfulness-curious person feel like classic meditation techniques might not be for them. Sue Hutton believes that mindfulness can be for anyone, and she's dedicated her work to making mindfulness practices like meditation accessible for neurodiverse communities. In this practice, she guides us through what she calls “Dual Anchor,” a kind of meditation that engages the senses to help gently steer attention.  This meditation is part of our Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement series, where we're sharing guided practices from the women featured in our 2025 special edition of Mindful magazine.  If you'd like the transcription of this guided meditation, it will be online on Mindful.org next week.  Curious about the many benefits of being a member?

When we're wrestling with experiences that challenge our identities or our confidence—like failures at work, relationship struggles, or letting go of old belief systems — it can be tempting to reach for positive self-talk that pushes back against the difficult feelings we might be having.   In today's guided practice, Caverly Morgan offers something much sturdier, what she calls unconditional reassurances.  In this practice, we're not just saying the opposite of what we're feeling, hoping that it will be true. Rather, it's about anchoring into a deep-down sense of worthiness and compassion that's always present, regardless of how well things are going for us or how great we feel about ourselves in any given moment.  This meditation is part of our Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement series, where we're sharing guided practices from the women featured in our 2025 special edition of Mindful magazine.  If you'd like the transcription of this guided meditation, it will be online on Mindful.org next week.  Curious about the many benefits of being a member?

When we're wrestling with experiences that challenge our identities or our confidence—like failures at work, relationship struggles, or letting go of old belief systems — it can be tempting to reach for positive self-talk that pushes back against the difficult feelings we might be having.   In today's guided practice, Caverly Morgan offers something much sturdier, what she calls unconditional reassurances.  In this practice, we're not just saying the opposite of what we're feeling, hoping that it will be true. Rather, it's about anchoring into a deep-down sense of worthiness and compassion that's always present, regardless of how well things are going for us or how great we feel about ourselves in any given moment.  This meditation is part of our Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement series, where we're sharing guided practices from the women featured in our 2025 special edition of Mindful magazine.  If you'd like the transcription of this guided meditation, it will be online on Mindful.org next week.  Curious about the many benefits of being a member?

It is the South African greeting of Sawubona, which carries an intentional willingness to see and to be seen, in our fullness, vulnerability, mutual belonging, and radiance.   This meditation is part of our Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement series, where we will be sharing guided practices from the women featured in our 2025 special edition of Mindful magazine.  If you'd like the transcription of this guided meditation, it will be online on Mindful.org next week.  Curious about the many benefits of being a member?

The Stanford Arts Review described Samantha Rose Williams as a “Mezzo-Soprano with ‘jaw-dropping vocal power.” This opera singer and arts activist is committed to creating space for critical discussion about art, culture, and social change. Her latest project is American Patriots, an opera she created that seeks to examine patriotism from four vastly different perspectives: African-American, Native American,  New American and white Working-Class American. For this piece, Samantha asked 50 Americans from diverse racial, socio economic, political, cultural and gender backgrounds to answer the question, “What is a patriot?” Their verbatim answers became the lyrics for her newest opera, which she sings magnificently. She hopes that through sharing nuanced stories of people of all backgrounds and beliefs, she can be a part of breaking down the walls of “us and other” and help to create a more sympathetic and equitable world.Have a Swan Dive to share?

Join Kristin and Melanie as they discuss one of the most stigmatizing areas of mental health: Borderline Personality Disorder. Melanie Goldman (She/Her) is a leading light in the field of mental health advocacy and helps fight on behalf of those with borderline personality disorder (BPD) based in Toronto, Canada. Melanie has spent the majority of her life working in the music industry, and she has earned a degree in psychology. After realizing she needed to fend for herself after being in a hospital ten years ago. Melanie, who has been diagnosed with BPD and ADHD, decided three years ago that she wanted to use both her music and her Master's degree to help others with the disorders. She went to work and researched everything about BPD after her diagnosis and found the appropriate medical professionals, treatments, and community resources; she then took the next step and began directly aiding communities, gradually coming to understand that her story could help save countless lives. She has volunteered for multiple groups and helped many people find the resources they need.Melanie has been a guest on a number of podcasts from backfromtheborderline to BPDBRAVERY and is a cast member of the YouTube TV series theBPDbunch. Melanie is a trained peer facilitator for 2 non-profits and is currently a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). Since the general public has a skewed conception of BPD within the mental health system, Melanie has many far-reaching ambitions for the mental health communities and BPD, including the establishment of her own Center for BPD. Melanie's sister Jackie and her grandmother who has passed away Rae suffered from BPD and bipolar disorder, and Melanie hopes everyday to help others find their own “Rae of light” as her Grandmother's name was Rae and hopes to carry this name forward with love and keep the legacy alive.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mental-health-news-radio--3082057/support.

The weekly adult Sunday School class at OAG taught by long-time teacher, Mrs. Jeanie Davis. ** Edited to remove personal information shared in the class and extended pauses ** Title: Understanding God's Plan: A Lesson from Football and Faith Summary: In this week's message, Mrs. Jeanie Davis takes us on a journey through the story of Deborah and Barak in the Bible. Drawing parallels to our everyday life, she emphasizes how important it is to trust in God's plan, even when it's not clear to us right away. Just like we wouldn't give up on learning a complicated subject or task, we should keep faith and press on with God's guidance. Mrs. Davis reminds us that every action we take and every decision we make is part of a larger picture that only God truly understands. Her key point is that we are all uniquely chosen for a purpose in God's grand plan, and it's crucial to remain faithful and diligent in our calling. "What you do today matters for eternity," she says, urging us all to walk confidently in faith. Lesson Outline: 00:00 - Understanding the Unexplainable 01:38 - Our Actions Matter for Eternity 04:37 - Generations of Faith 08:10 - Powerful Women of the Bible 20:42 - The Choice is Yours 22:52 - Speak Out for Your Beliefs
