In this episode of The Pleasure Priority Podcast, Amber discusses the current FAFO (Fuck Around and Find Out) movement, emphasizing its relevance to Black women resting and self-care. The conversation reflects on the critical role black women have played in pushing social movements forward and the need for us to rest following the 92% turnout in recent U.S. elections that still didn't produce favorable results. The FAFO movement encourages black women to focus on self-care and allow others to take up the mantle of activism while we take the next four years to rest. Amber highlights various forms of rest, including physical, creative, mental, social, emotional, and sensory rest, as essential practices for resting intentionally ad sustaining well-being. In addition, the episode promotes National Day of Rest for Black Women on March 10th, honoring the legacy of Harriet Tubman, and invites listeners to join her for the Black Girl Burnout Society's virtual event celebrating and discussing the National Day of Rest for Black Women on March 9th. Black women resting and prioritizing personal well-being are revolutionary acts that deserve to be honored and recognized.

Your Hope-Filled Perspective with Dr. Michelle Bengtson podcast
Episode Summary: In this episode of Your Hope Filled Perspective, we honor National Caregivers Month by shining a light on the often unseen challenges and rewards of care-giving. Whether you’re a caregiver yourself or know someone who is, this conversation will provide encouragement, practical tips, and faith-based hope to navigate the emotional, physical, and spiritual toll of caregiving. Carole Leathem and I discuss the misconceptions about caregiving, the importance of self-care, and ways communities can better support caregivers. Join us as we explore how faith and community can sustain caregivers through their most challenging moments while also revealing the unexpected blessings caregiving can bring. Quotables from the episode: There are 55 million caregivers in the world. Caregiving often comes with, as you've alluded to, a range of emotions. You called it a roller coaster of emotions, which I think is a beautiful picture of just exactly what's that like. It comes with grief, it comes with guilt. Sometimes it even comes with resentment. How can caregivers process these feelings in a healthy way? Well, for me, it really boils down to what I call asking the right questions. Because early on, I was asking, why in the heck is this happening? What did I do to cause this? I would cry out to God and say, why are you allowing this? I would say all of these why, why, why, why, why questions. And the why questions would get me nowhere. And one day, God, in my quiet time, said to me, “Carol, you're asking the wrong question.” And the question I needed to be doing asking was “okay this is happening, now what?” What I have now done is, I have taken the focus off the why which is the focus on me and what I'm going through and what I'm feeling now I'm not diminishing those emotions but when I am focused on me and my hurt and my pain and my resentment, then I'm not doing anything to get myself off that hamster wheel or that roller coaster. When I ask the right question, which is, I make a statement to God, “okay, this is happening. Now, what?” Then I can take a step back, my eyes are us back on God. My heart is now open to the mistakes that I'm making. And the emotions now can one by one be dealt with. How do I deal with the resentment? Well, when I say to “God, you know, I didn't sign up for this.” God says to me, “Oh girl, yeah, you did. Remember those vows that you took 48 years ago.” And I'm like, yeah, you're right. And all that does is it just kind of puts it back into a perspective, because the perspective of focusing on me is not as healthy as the perspective of focusing on God. God didn't answer Job. When Job said why, God had something else for Job to learn. And when you say now what that offers God the opportunity to teach you either something about yourself, something about your spouse, or something about him. Yeah,… those are hard fought lessons. But I'm convinced that sometimes the only way we learn those lessons is walking through the hard times. I agree. I agree with you 100%. “ I have this space created so that when I walk into this room, it's me. It's my safe place. It's my place where I do my quiet time. It's my place where I work. It's my place where I do my podcasts. It's where I do everything in this room. I had to create a space. And fortunately, I had a room that I could do that with. So I come in here and if life is particularly hard, I have to tell myself 15 minutes is not going to change anything outside these walls, but it can make a big difference in me. We make time for the things that are important. We can always find time if we make it important enough. The real bottom line is, and I deal with a lot of caregivers, we make time for what's important, and that is the honest truth. … we can always find time if we make it important enough. So we have to make it important. And I hope that you're listening because that is such a valuable nugget because we really do make time for what's important. The number of times that I hear people say, oh, I just don't have time. You know, we all have 24 hours in a day, And we are all going to spend every minute of those 24 hours, but we will spend it on what we deem is important. And so if your loved one that you are caring for, if you deem them as important, you need to also deem your own self -care as important. You can still experience joy even in the midst of sorrow. It comes down to perspective and how we’re looking at it. It’s not about me, even though it feels like it’s about me. We have to know our limits. There are some things when we’re dealing with caregiving there’s things I can do, and then there’s things I can’t do. The hardest thing is to understand where those boundaries are. What am I responsible for? What am I not responsible for?

In a perfect world we could just sit at our benches and create while someone else handled the business side of things, marketing, and social media. But for most of us, we need to do it all and some days doing it all feels defeating and like we just can't do enough. Today, you'll hear my conversation with Carrie Hasse which happened right after she finished a couple of very demanding shows including One of a Kind Chicago. I have been a big fan of Carrie's work with her rich patinas and bold stone choices, but boy did I fall in love when I got to see it in person at One of a Kind. During our conversation you'll hear Carrie share that being a working artist and solopreneur isn't easy, but her love for the craft drives her desire to push through the challenging moments. We talk about balancing work with the things that nourish us, physical challenges that can result or flare up from our metalsmithing, and the importance of self care.Carrie Haase has been designing and creating jewelry for over 20 years. Her jewelry celebrates geometry and geology, and the meeting of the two. When she's not in her home studio working, she can often be found rummaging for unique gemstones in and around the Chicago area.Follow Carrie...Instagram:@carriehaasejewelryWebsite:carriehaasejewelry.comLove the Podcast?Support an episode:Click here to learn more!Without your support I couldn't continue the Slowmade Podcast.

Greg and Jacquie Francis discuss how prioritizing their roles as principals, not teachers, allowed their family to thrive, even when homeschooling wasn't their strength. Moms often feel the pressure of too few hours in the day, but clear boundaries and realistic expectations can transform that struggle into peace and purpose.

Do you find yourself exhausted from constantly juggling everything on your own as a single parent? I know I felt that way at first… In this episode of the Wellness Revolution podcast, divorce attorney turned co-parenting expert Morgan Foster joins me to share her top advice for navigating co-parenting challenges. We discuss letting go of things that are no longer your responsibility and focusing on the big picture of raising healthy, happy kids together. We also dive into setting clear boundaries and expectations early on, handling common co-parenting disputes, prioritizing your own self-care as a single mom, and much more. Morgan Foster is an experienced family law attorney who spent 20 years practicing in the traditional legal system, with a focus on complex divorce and custody cases. Driven by her belief that the best outcomes for families are achieved through chosen resolutions designed by clients and their partners rather than litigation, Morgan started her own company to provide alternative solutions. As a divorced mother of two young boys who has followed the process she now offers to others, Morgan enjoys a positive and supportive co-parenting relationship with her ex-husband and has observed her own children thrive through and beyond divorce.

Divorce itself is not as damaging to children as ongoing parental conflict. By minimizing conflict, encouraging involvement from both parents and supporting children's emotional processing, kids can thrive after divorce.

"The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places." - Ernest Hemingway Guest Introduction: Hey there, friend! Welcome to Exploring the Seasons of Life: Travel Edition! I'm Cindy MacMillan, your host and founder of Pangea World Travel Agency. Whether you're a busy midlife professional, an empty nester, or a woman with a heart for adventure, you're in the right place! This podcast isn't just about travel—it's about how travel connects with the broader themes of life: growth, discovery, and reinvention. Join me and inspiring guests as we share personal stories of adventure and meaningful transformation. We'll explore everything from hidden travel gems to life-changing experiences. So grab your coffee, get cozy, and let's embark on this adventure together! Now, it's my pleasure to introduce today's guest, Susan Houts. Susan Houts is a world traveler, former educator, and current Community Liaison for Assisting Hands Home Care here in Brevard, Florida. After serving as an Associate Professor of Public Speaking and Interpersonal Communication at Eastern Florida State College for 12 years, she transitioned into Senior Care after seeing the need for community education in this area. She grew up in Rockledge, Florida, and currently lives in Palm Bay with her husband of 16 years, Aaron. Here's a glimpse of our conversation: 2:15 I've spoken to many people who are afraid to leave because they're the primary caregiver for someone. But this can be a great opportunity to benefit both the person receiving care and the caregiver, allowing them to continue living their lives without worry. 6:01 In our community, there's a phrase that resonates with travelers: 'Take your oxygen first.' On a plane, they always instruct you to put your own oxygen mask on before helping a child or anyone else. The reason is simple: if you pass out, you won't be able to help anyone. 6:46 It's important to prepare in advance by reaching out to the community and using resources like Assisting Hands and the healthcare community to set up care ahead of time. If you leave it as an afterthought, you might find yourself on your trip, unable to fully enjoy it because you're constantly worried about what's happening at home. 8:35 If you have a company, ask others for recommendations. When we have a loved one in need of care—whether it's a senior or someone with health issues—it often feels like we're the only ones going through it. It feels very personal and can affect every part of our lives. But remember, you're not alone in this. 13:36 The really interesting thing about care, especially that I've learned in the senior care world, is that everybody's needs are completely different. Completely different, right? 34:33 I'd like to share one more tip I got from a friend who is a senior care advisor. I love her advice: when you're looking for support, whether before your trip or even during, focus on getting help with the task you dislike the most.

"By third grade, literacy scores are correlations to if kids or not if kids will end up in prison, but they're directly correlated to imprisonment rates basically." "Kids kind of lose the enjoyment of stories or learning, reading, anything like that. So that's why I promote it. I just want kids to love to read and love to consume content, continue to learn, practice their comprehension skills." "AI should just be a co-pilot, a co-pilot in whatever it is that you're trying to figure out. It's definitely great to help your creative juices start flowing." "Our children go to school for seven, eight hours a day for nine months out of the year, but where are they for that all 365 days for at least 16 hours on those all 365 days a year? They're at home with us." "Libraries are turning into like community centers." "Elimination communication is making yourself available to understand your child's cues." In this episode of the Young Dad podcast, Jey and Rella discuss the importance of literacy and movement for children. They highlight the correlation between literacy rates and imprisonment rates, emphasizing the need for interventions to improve literacy. They also discuss their own experiences with reading and how technology, such as AI, can be used as a tool to enhance learning. They emphasize the importance of books as a tool for bonding and starting dialogues with children, and encourage parents to take advantage of resources like public libraries.

They touch on the importance of continuing education at home, the role of libraries as community centers, and the concept of elimination communication. They also delve into the challenges of postpartum depression and the lack of support for new parents. The conversation highlights the need for awareness, resources, and support in order to create lasting changes and improve the well-being of parents and children. Takeaways Literacy rates are directly correlated to imprisonment rates, highlighting the need for interventions to improve literacy in children. Children's interest in reading often declines after the third grade, and it is important to find ways to engage them and promote comprehension. Technology, such as AI, can be used as a tool to enhance learning and creativity. Books are a valuable resource for bonding with children and starting dialogues about various topics. Public libraries offer a wealth of resources and should be utilized to promote reading and learning in children. Continuing education at home is crucial for children's learning and development. Libraries are transforming into community centers that offer a wide range of resources and events for families. Elimination communication is a method that involves understanding and responding to a child's cues for using the bathroom.
