Podcast appearances and mentions of rachel wright

I wanted to share our latest episode featuring Rachel Wright, founder of Born at the Right Time and a parent of neurodiverse children discussing ‘Bridging the Gap with Parent Carers'. While schools, social care, and health services may believe they are partnering effectively with parents, the reality can be quite different. Rachel shares her personal journey navigating the healthcare system for her eldest son, who has complex needs. Her story highlights the frustration many parents feel when they are directed by professionals while lacking agency in decisions affecting their children. This episode emphasises the importance of making every interaction as beneficial as possible and build positive relationships with parent carers. It is understandable that relationships between professionals and parents/carers is more fraught than ever, the experience of trauma coupled with implementation gaps can cause the heat to quickly rise in conversations. Often the little things really do make a difference. Listen to Rachel's incredible story and the vital need for genuine communication and partnership between parents and professionals to ensure that the needs of children with special educational needs and disabilities are met effectively. “The single most important you can do to improve my life on a day-to-day basis is talk to me with respect. And work with me and collaborate with me. So that connection and that communication is where the power and the empathy lies.” Rachel Wright About Rachel Wright Rachel is the Founder/Director of Born at the Right Time, a qualified nurse and the parent of neurodiverse and profoundly disabled sons. She's the author of The Skies I'm Under, an award-winning blogger and the host of the popular The Skies We're Under Podcast.

Encore encore Rachel Wright! This episode is hugely important to me as Rachel's mom. I am still getting messages as to how it has helped others by giving them an understanding about other lifestyle choices… “I was SO GRATEFUL to be able to step into a conversation (on this topic) with some knowledge provided so candidly and thoroughly by you and Rachel!“ My daughter Rachel MA, LMFT  is a distinguished psychotherapist and is non-monogamous/polyamorous... and she and her partners Yair and Ashley just had a beautiful baby boy.  In this episode, we talk about how to have tough conversations and improve communication in all of your relationships. The 2nd half is about her non-monogamous/polyamorous life, its challenges, misconceptions and much more. Someone recently said to me that they listened to the first part of the episode but stopped listening to the rest about non-monogamy because it's not how this person chooses to live. While this lifestyle isn't for everyone it is so important to learn about it. Why? In our current divisive climate we all know that when there is ignorance, there is judging and othering, which can lead to bullying, violence, loss of rights, freedoms and isolation. We need more understanding, kindness and love in this world and it starts with getting to know each other better. I hope you'll listen to this episode at least once and share it to help open more minds and hearts and hopefully encourage understanding and acceptance for all kinds of love.

We discuss how they're navigating the pregnancies, what they plan to explain to their children, and Yair's advice for those who have cheated or are new to non-monogamy (he's now taking coaching clients). We also delve into what dating a chef is really like, the valuable lessons he's learned from his sex therapist wife, and how they manage finances in their polyamorous household.

Today on Eyes Wide Open, we sit down with Rachel Wright, a non-monogamous queer woman and licensed therapist who specializes in sex and relationships.    When Rachel and I connected initially, I thought we were going to discuss her work as a therapist, but we ended up getting into a conversation about what she sees as a therapist in reality TV, including her take on The Ultimatum: Queer Love and the impacts that show had on the cast members and the LGBTQ+ community.   We also talk a little bit about tools to help regulate internet hate and how cruel people can be. Rachel shares an experience she had opening up her life to the public eye and sharing some genuine information that would really probably help a lot of people, but how reading the YouTube comments of people judging her life and projecting onto her experience made her upset.   We're going to schedule another episode so we can learn a little bit about Rachel's experience as a non-monogamist, being a queer person, and psychotherapy, but for right now, let's get into this conversation so that you can watch reality TV and interact on the internet with your eyes wide open.

Kate Adie introduces stories from Iraqi Kurdistan's Yazidi community, the streets of Marseille, the former USSR and the Caribbean island of Nevis. From 2011 to 2017, the Yazidi minority in Iraq lived in terror, as the community was targeted by Islamic State's fighters for especially brutal repression. There were fears of genocide - that the whole community might be wiped out. That didn't happen - but as Rachel Wright has seen, Yazidis who survived captivity and slavery under IS are still finding life extremely tough today, trying to eke out a living in tented cities of refugees. After the mass civil disorder across France, there's passionate debate over the root causes of the revolt on the streets, and what the rioters really wanted. Jenny Hill reports from Marseille on what she heard from residents of the city's vast and decaying Frais Vallon housing project. Ibrat Safo reveals a personal story of childhood in the former USSR - and making contact again with the woman who helped to raise him. His family were Uzbek, while his nanny was of Uzbek and Ukrainian descent. They grew up together speaking Russian in a provincial Soviet town. So when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, he felt an urgent need to track her down, and find out where life has taken her. And Rob Crossan reveals why the Caribbean island of Nevis hasn't turned much of a profit from its connection with one of America's Founding Fathers - the celebrated Alexander Hamilton. Producer: Polly Hope Editor: Richard Fenton-Smith Production Co-Ordinator: Gemma Ashman

In 2014, militants of the Islamic State group set out to destroy the ancient, minority Yazidi community of northern Iraq. Thousands were murdered, thousands of Yazidi women and children were enslaved and brutalised. Since the defeat of IS in 2017, the traumatized community has tried to recover. And yet, as Rachel Wright reports, more than 100,000 Yazidis remain stuck in camps, unable to return to their homes. Photo: Bahar, a Yazidi survivor, holds a picture of her missing husband and son. She and her family were captured by Islamic State in 2014.

New research from Cancer Research UK and NHS Digital has revealed that Black women from Caribbean and African backgrounds are more likely to be diagnosed with certain types of cancer at later stages, when treatment is less likely to be successful. This study is the first to show that ethnicity is a significant factor in late-stage diagnosis for women with breast, ovarian, uterine, non-small cell lung cancer and colon cancer. Nuala speaks to Kruti Shrotri, Head of Policy Development at Cancer Research UK and Adobea Obeng who sought medical help three times over two years before she was diagnosed with incurable breast cancer. Eleanor McEvoy is one of Ireland's foremost songwriters and has worked with the likes of U2, Sinead O'Connor and Mary Black. She is the composer and co-performer of A Woman's Heart, the title track for the best-selling Irish album in Irish history, and one of Ireland's favourite folk songs, which recently featured in the award winning Derry Girls. One of Eleanor's songs, Sophie, is used in treatment centres to treat patients with eating disorders. She joins Nuala live in the studio to discuss her UK tour, the inspiration behind the tracks of her most recent album Gimme Some Wine and to perform the track South Anne Street. In 2014, thousands of Yazidi women and girls were captured as part of an Islamic State Group genocide. While many of the men were shot, women and girls were forced into sex slavery for IS. Today, many of these women and children still live in camps in Iraq as they have nowhere else to go. Now, the Iraqi government says they're going to close the camps. Nuala McGovern is joined by journalist Rachel Wright and CEO of Bellwether International Rachel Miner to talk about the conditions in the camps and what more needs to be done. Judges from the Special Immigration Appeals Commission have today decided the removal of British citizenship from Shamima Begum, who left the UK as a 15-year-old schoolgirl to join Islamic State, was lawful. In the hearing last year challenging the decision, her legal team said it ignored the fact that she may have been trafficked into Syria.  Nuala is joined by BBC Home Affairs Correspondent Daniel Sandford. In 1838 a middle-class Victorian woman, Mrs Anne Sykes, was given a diary on her wedding day which she filled over the years with snippets of clothes and household fabrics, carefully annotating each one. Nearly two hundred years later Kate Strasdin, a fashion historian, came across the scrapbook.

As Russia's invasion of Ukraine enters a third week, hopes are wearing thin of a ceasefire after several rounds of unsuccessful talks. But a potential mediator tried to enter the fray this week: Israel, as Tom Bateman reports from Jerusalem. Russia's foreign minister is due to meet with his Ukrainian counterpart Dmytro Kuleba on Thursday in the southern Turkish resort of Antalya. It's a city that's in other times popular with both Russians and Ukrainian tourists. Mahjooba Nowrouzi visited the coastal town and found opposing narratives about the conflict surfaced in the chatter of the bazaars Russian warships have been circling menacingly in the waters near the Black Sea port city of Odessa in southern Ukraine. The city's residents are braced for a possible assault and many are leaving their homes. For Damien McGuinness, who lived and worked in eastern Europe, their experiences are horribly reminiscent of the traumas suffered a generation ago in Georgia. In 2015, Jamaica passed a law that decriminalised the possession of small amounts of cannabis and authorised a regulated medical cannabis industry. Initially seen as a boon for cannabis farmers, some traditional growers say they can't afford to meet the strict legal requirements for growing the plant. Rachel Wright visited a farm. The medieval village of Lagrasse in south-west France is home to an eight century Abbey which is divided in two parts – one side is occupied by a group of left-leaning intellectuals, the other by a traditional catholic religious order. This arrangement ran relatively smoothly at first until a contretemps over a festival some fifteen years ago. Since then relations have deteriorated. Chris Bockman went to find out more.
