Vanesa lleva 13 años en prisión por un secuestro que ocurrió en el terreno que su mamá rentaba para pensión y fiestas, sin que ninguna de las dos supiera que habían metido a una víctima ahí.00:00:00 - 00:05:25 | Condenada por un crimen ajeno / Convicted for someone else's crime00:05:26 - 00:14:45 | Quedar embarazada en prisión / Getting pregnant in prison00:14:46 - 00:23:30 | Dar a luz sin anestesia / Giving birth without anesthesia00:23:31 - 00:32:15 | Criar a mi hija entre rejas / Raising my daughter behind bars00:32:16 - 00:38:47 | El debate: niños en prisión / The debate: kids in prison--------------------Vanesa has been in prison for 13 years for a kidnapping that happened on property her mom rented out for parties and storage—neither of them had any idea someone had stashed a victim there.----------------------En este episodio hablamos de un tema que México debe poner en la agenda: la maternidad en prisión. Vanesa se embarazó estando privada de la libertad, dio a luz por cesárea en condiciones precarias y hoy cría a su hija dentro del penal mientras lidia con el estigma social, las carencias del sistema y la separación de su otra hija de 15 años que está afuera.Conversamos sobre las duras realidades que enfrentan las madres en prisión: desde el parto sin anestesia hasta la falta de recursos básicos como pañales, las visitas conyugales que permiten embarazos pero no garantizan condiciones dignas para criar, y el debate sobre si los niños deben crecer en prisión o separarse de sus madres. También abordamos la paternidad en prisión, donde los hombres no tienen las mismas responsabilidades ni limitaciones.Este episodio expone las contradicciones de un sistema que permite que niños nazcan y crezcan entre rejas, pero no garantiza sus derechos ni los de sus madres. Vanesa nos recuerda que detrás de cada mujer privada de la libertad hay una historia compleja, y que los niños que nacen en prisión merecen dignidad sin importar dónde estén sus madres.-------------------------In this episode, we talk about something Mexico needs to put on the table: motherhood in prison. Vanesa got pregnant while locked up, gave birth by C-section in terrible conditions, and now she's raising her daughter inside the prison while dealing with the social stigma, a broken system, and being separated from her other daughter—who's 15 and on the outside.We get into the harsh realities mothers face in prison: everything from giving birth with no pain meds to not having basic stuff like diapers, conjugal visits that allow pregnancies but don't guarantee decent conditions to raise a kid, and the whole debate about whether children should grow up in prison or be separated from their moms. We also touch on fatherhood in prison, where men don't have the same responsibilities or restrictions.This episode shows the contradictions of a system that lets kids be born and grow up behind bars but doesn't guarantee their rights—or their mothers'. Vanesa reminds us that behind every woman in prison, there's a complicated story, and that kids born in prison deserve dignity no matter where their moms are.---------------------------Para ver episodios exclusivos, entra aquí: https://www.patreon.com/Penitencia_mx¿Quieres ver los episodios antes que nadie?

If you've been feeling quietly uncomfortable—less patient with certain patterns, more aware of what drains you, and more sensitive to what feels misaligned—this episode is for you. Raising your standards isn't about judgment or superiority. It's often the Holy Spirit gently preparing you for expansion. In this episode of the God's Vibes Podcast, we talk about how growth in Christ naturally changes what you tolerate, agree with, and make room for. As God increases your capacity, He also refines your discernment. Things that once felt normal begin to feel heavy—not because they're evil, but because they no longer fit where you're going. This is a conversation about: recognizing when God is raising your internal standards releasing survival patterns without shame learning to honor peace, clarity, and obedience trusting the quiet shifts that come before promotion If you've been sensing a change you can't fully explain—but you know you can't go back—this episode will help you name it, trust it, and move forward with grace. If this message resonated with you, I want to invite you deeper. ✨ Become a God's Vibes Insider That's where I share behind-the-scenes teaching, prophetic insight, and first access to what God is building in this season.

We explore how overprotecting children is not only hurting their resilience—it's fueling entitlement, anxiety, and a lack of real-world grit.This episode breaks down how these trends ripple into adulthood, including the link between low frustration tolerance and increased risk for substance use and addiction. Through raw conversations, real stories, and expert insight, we challenge the norms and ask the question no one wants to ask:Are we loving our kids… or weakening them?If you're ready for honest discussions about accountability, resilience, and what kids truly need to thrive—this is your podcast.
Bekkersdal mass shooting leaves nine dead, raising alarm over safety in Gauteng by Radio Islam
The original and primary activity of the Guardian Angels is "safety patrol", in which members walk the streets or ride public transit. Guardian Angels must be in uniform to represent the organization.As if there wasn't enough violence on the streets of American cities, Curtis Sliwa has been busy inventing some. Sliwa, founder of the New York-based Guardian Angels, recently acknowledged that he faked a half dozen of the crime-stopping interventions for which his security group has gained national attention. Current and former associates of Sliwa say there are even more.Why would a group that claims to work in the public interest stoop to such behavior? Sliwa said he did it to gain publicity and support when the idea for a security force was a new idea, and later when something was needed to keep the Angels' public profile high. With no authority and no credibility beyond what they could win through their own good deeds, the fledgling citizen patrollers started small when they staged their first trick, the return of a stolen wallet. Sliwa has been quoted as saying that a parish priest dreamed this up in 1978. While the priest, who is now retired, told the New York Times that it wasn't his idea, he acknowledged playing along because the young do-gooders needed positive attention.A staged crime is never harmless, however, no matter how noble the motive. In a society beset by violence and the fear of harm, trust is the ultimate victim. It is hard enough for people who live in high-crime areas to conduct normal activities, faced with the constant awareness that they might be mugged _ or worse. Raising that anxiety level by creating artificial victims can only harm the fragile trust that allows community life to continue despite drive-by shootings and other random violence.The Guardian Angels allegedly staged more serious stunts as well, including one in which a group member was soaked with gasoline by two would-be "robbers." Tony Mao, the former Angel who now says he doused himself with gasoline, told the New York Times that the idea came from an actual incident.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Episode 2847: Rachel Jones offers a refreshingly practical approach to raising capable, responsible kids by integrating cleaning habits into daily family life, without rigid charts or power struggles. With patience, consistency, and a focus on teamwork over task lists, children naturally begin to take ownership of their spaces and routines. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://nourishingminimalism.com/teaching-children-tidy-habits-early-on/ Quotes to ponder: "We can't just assign tons of chores to each child and be done, no, we will have to follow through with instruction, patience, and consistency." "When children grow up with the belief that 'we do what needs to be done,' it makes the transition to adulthood less overwhelming." "Teaching children to do household tasks means when they are older they won't be paralyzed with certain tasks, instead, they will be capable."

Parenting is full of tension—especially when love tempts us to smooth every bump in our daughter's path. In this "Best of Raising Godly Girls" episode, we revisit Episode 271: "How Making Life Too Easy Hinders a Girl's Character, Mental, and Spiritual Growth" featuring AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay and Erin Kunkle, co-founder of MAVEN Ministries. Originally aired September 20th, 2025, this conversation explores the pitfalls of "lawnmower" or overprotective parenting and the lasting impact it can have on a girl's growth in character, resilience, and faith. Erin and Patti dive into Biblical principles for equipping girls to persevere through challenges, problem-solve, and depend on Christ in everyday life. They offer compassionate insight for parents learning to step back, trust God's guidance, and allow daughters to face age-appropriate struggles—knowing that these moments cultivate courage, independence, and spiritual maturity. Whether you're listening during a busy holiday morning, on a drive to church, or sipping cocoa by the fire, this episode offers encouragement and actionable wisdom. Parents will walk away with clarity on when to intervene and when to let God—and life—teach their daughters lessons that build lasting strength. Scripture References: James 1:2-4 Proverbs 22:6 Three Takeaways for Parents: Step back and allow age-appropriate challenges to shape your girl's growth. Encourage perseverance and problem-solving rooted in faith. Trust Christ to lead your daughter's journey while guiding with wisdom and grace.

In this episode of Christian Formation and Homeschooling in a Distracted Age, Brendon Naicker addresses the immense influence of modern media on children and the urgent need for Christian parents to cultivate discernment in a digital culture.Brendon explores how news cycles, entertainment, and social platforms shape identity and values, often more powerfully than traditional education or even church involvement. He challenges parents to recognise that media is not neutral—it forms beliefs, desires, and worldviews.Rather than responding with fear or withdrawal, Brendon presents networked homeschooling as a means to teach children wisdom, critical thinking, and biblical discernment within community. The episode highlights the role of Solavia.UK in helping families navigate media pressures together and raise children who can stand firm in Christ amidst a saturated digital age.#ChristianHomeschooling #SolaviaUK #BrendonNaicker #HomeEducationUK #MediaWiseKids #ChristianParents #DigitalDiscipleship #HomeschoolNetwork #FaithFormation #IntentionalParenting #CounterCulturalParenting #RaisingDisciples #LivingTheology #UKHomeschooling #DiscerningChildren #ChristCentredEducation #KingdomEducation
In this week's episode, I'm joined by Amy Griffin for a deeply personal conversation about what it means to re-parent yourself—and how that inner work quietly transforms your parenting. We talk about the pressure to be perfect, the role of control and trust in family relationships, and how healing your own story can create more safety for your kids. Amy shares how telling the truth, setting boundaries, and staying in the light reshaped the way she shows up as a mother, partner, and person—and why parenting isn't about having the answers, but about doing the work with honesty and compassion.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

A Taoist guide to parenting with trust instead of fear — so love flows without control, criticism, or comparison.Parenting often pulls us between overprotection and emotional distance — both driven by fear, not love. In this episode, we explore the Tao of parenting, the art of guiding without controlling, and how to raise resilient, confident children through trust, presence, and balance. Drawing on Taoist wisdom, Inner Child awareness, and the release of criticism, comparison, and judgment, this episode reveals how fear-based parenting patterns form — and how aligning with wu wei creates freedom, emotional safety, and unconditional love for both parent and child.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's FREE Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:INNER CHILD PLAYLIST https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqSHEN (THE SPIRITUAL SELF) PLAYLIST https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zIBmp50wYcmU7jCBLp1Qvl-jIs there a question you'd like answered on the show?

Raising confident girls starts with how moms regulate emotions, make decisions under pressure and talk to themselves when parenting gets hard. This year-end episode reflects on self-confidence through the lens of motherhood, offering insight for raising self-confident girls who grow into confident teens and confident women. Drawing from conversations with Dr. Lisa Klein, Nina Badzin, Abby Gagerman, Emily Gordon, Heather Redisch, and Simone Knego, these moments stayed with me long after the mic turned off because they speak to what actually shapes confidence in real life, especially during the emotionally charged seasons of raising teens. Again and again, the conversation returns to the same truth. Kids are still figuring themselves out emotionally and neurologically, which makes the intensity make sense even when it feels overwhelming. Belonging matters, but tying worth to approval creates fragile self-confidence. Painful moments do not need to be erased to be survivable. When we lead with regulation, patience, and repair, we give our kids something far sturdier than quick solutions. The lens also turns inward. What happens when we release the pressure to make the perfect call every time? How does parenting shift when self-trust replaces second-guessing? The way we speak to ourselves quietly teaches our children how to respond to their own doubt, disappointment, and discomfort. As the year comes to a close, this episode offers a steadier way to think about self-confidence. Not something to manufacture or guard, but something practiced daily through presence, perspective, and self-respect.

Shannon Hale is the author of more than 50 books for all ages, including the Princess Academy series and her graphic novel memoirs. In this episode, Adam and his daughter Joanna (a longtime fan of Shannon's books) talk to Shannon about the powerful lessons books teach us about empathy, and take a closer look at how stories can either reinforce or dismantle the gender stereotypes kids learn early on. The three lament the decline in leisure reading, and brainstorm ways to nurture new readers and keep students interested in books.Host & GuestAdam Grant (Instagram: @adamgrant | LinkedIn: @adammgrant | Website: https://adamgrant.net/)Shannon Hale (Instagram: @squeetus | Website: https://shannonhale.com/)Follow TED!

Learn how a busy parent finished a novel by following a clear roadmap that made it possible to pause, return, and keep moving forward.Between raising four kids, navigating pregnancy and newborn life, and juggling everything that comes with being a busy parent, Madi didn't exactly have ideal writing conditions. And yet, she finished her novel.In today's episode, I'm sitting down with Madi, a former Notes to Novel student, to talk about what it actually looked like to write a book in the middle of real life. She didn't have unlimited time or perfect routines. What she had was a clear plan, realistic expectations, and a way to keep moving forward even when progress felt slow.Madi shares the mindset shifts that helped her stop waiting for the right time, how outlining gave her momentum instead of boxing her in, and why having a process made it possible to pause without quitting when life demanded her attention.If you've ever wanted to write and finish your novel but feel too busy right now, this conversation is for you.Here's what we cover:[05:15] The mindset shift that helped Madi stop treating her novel like a hobby and start making real progress toward a finished draft[09:00] How outlining gave Madi clarity and confidence without killing creativity or locking her into a rigid plot structure[07:15] What writing a novel looked like during pregnancy, newborn life, and four kids—plus the simple routine that kept her moving forward[14:50] The step-by-step editing process that turned Madi's first draft into a contest finalist manuscript without burnout[24:15] How Madi went from querying literary agents to landing her dream agent at a top Christian Fiction agencyIf you're craving proof that it's possible to write a novel alongside a full, busy life, Madi's story will show you exactly what that can look like.

4th in the puppy series, the upland part. This is often an unpredictable phase, where dogs do what they do, and not always what we expect or want. With a good balance between the control of retriever work and the independence of the upland hunt, a youngster can learn to be an adept and confident partner in both. It is a process, and it takes time; entirely defined by the way your pup's little head works. It is one of the most fun aspects of dog training I have ever experienced.
In this powerful final episode, hosts Kristen Pyrc, M.D. and Wini King announce that Raising Joy is going on a hiatus after five successful seasons and over 125 episodes. They celebrate that the mission of the Joy Campaign—to support the mental well-being of children—will absolutely continue at Cook Children's.To close out their run, they welcome back their very first guest: Kathleen Powderly, M.D. Dr. Powderly was the "canary in the coal mine" who first sounded the alarm on the youth mental health crisis during the pandemic.She shares vital progress:Reduced Stigma: Fewer severe suicide attempts and a massive shift in families being willing to seek help earlier, before the situation becomes desperate.Better Resources: Increased availability of therapists, more insurance options, and the growth of employee assistance programs (EAPs).Success Stories: Dr. Powderly shares the professional "joy" of seeing her former patients—who accessed help during the crisis—now in college and "better".To our listeners, thank you for many moments of JOY! We are grateful for each and every one of you. Remember, Just Breathe, Open Up, You Matter!
In this episode, I kick off Christmas week with a smooth commute from Brandon, scarfing down an energy drink after a late night of show prep. We dive into holiday meats—I'm ditching ham and turkey for ribeyes at family gatherings, loving the sides like green bean casserole. Share your go-to dishes on the text line. I offer solid advice: raise your personal standards right now to make goals achievable and life better—it's transformed mine by cutting out negativity. Shoutout to donors who helped raise $1,500 for local animal shelters, covering 12 adoptions; ignore the haters accusing me of ulterior motives—transparency matters. Address critics who say I don't do positive work: shining light on culture rot and thugs is positive, as is fundraising for disasters and sick kids. No sympathy for chronic bad choices like homelessness from drugs—I've seen it up close. Fascinating update: Zodiac Killer and Black Dahlia murders linked to one suspect, Marvin Merrill. Wrap with JD Vance affirming it's okay to be white, calling out anti-white discrimination in DEI that boxes out talent and worsens society—facts over guilt. Joined by Andrew Gasser for real talk on racism, trans issues, and black fatigue from unchecked demands like reparations. Unfiltered reality to start your day strong.

Sometimes, the most loving thing we can do for our daughters is…step back. In this "Best of Raising Godly Girls" episode, we revisit Episode 269: "Why Parents Shouldn't Make Life Easy for Their Daughters," originally aired on September 16, 2025. Natalie Ambrose and Rachael Culpepper explore the pitfalls of "helicopter" or "lawnmower" parenting and offer a faith-filled perspective on building resilience in girls. This episode is for parents who want to love well—but struggle with the temptation to smooth every difficulty or shield their daughters from failure. Together, we discuss how stepping back, allowing natural consequences, and letting girls navigate challenges under God's guidance equips them with confidence, problem-solving skills, and a steadfast faith that will serve them for a lifetime. Listeners will be reminded that resilience isn't just a personality trait—it's a spiritual posture. By trusting God to guide our daughters through life's skinned knees, disappointments, and learning moments, we cultivate strength, humility, and perseverance. It's an invitation to parent with intentionality, grace, and courage, trusting the Holy Spirit to shape our girls into women of integrity. Scripture References: James 1:2-4 Proverbs 22:6 Three Things to Remember: Let girls experience challenges—they need space to grow and learn. Parent with grace, not control, trusting God's wisdom and timing. Celebrate resilience as a gift from God, cultivated over time through life's ups and downs. This "Best Of" episode is an encouragement to pause, reflect, and lean into God's guidance as you nurture your daughter's character, perseverance, and Godly womanhood. Visit raisinggodlygirls.com for more encouragement and faith-based parenting tools. Learn how to find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your community at americanheritagegirls.org.
Episode Description In this powerful and deeply moving episode of The Rob Skinner Podcast, Rob sits down with Jordan and Caryn McLeod, longtime missionaries whose journey has taken them from New York City to Jerusalem, Cyprus, and back to the United States. Raised in Jewish homes, Jordan and Caryn share their personal faith journeys, how they became Christians, and what led them to leave everything behind to help plant the church in the Holy Land. They open up about cultural barriers, spiritual resistance, heartbreak, perseverance, and what it really takes to serve God in one of the most challenging mission fields in the world. This conversation goes far beyond missions—it's about marriage, parenting, generosity, resilience, and learning to make your life truly count in every season. If you've ever wondered what faith looks like when it's tested, stretched, and refined over decades, this episode will inspire and challenge you. In This Episode, You'll Hear: Jordan and Caryn's conversion stories and Jewish backgrounds What it's like to plant a church in Jerusalem from scratch Why faith in Israel requires a completely different approach The idea of "completion" rather than conversion for Jewish believers Cultural, religious, and emotional challenges of overseas missions How they stayed faithful during years of slow growth and discouragement Stories of God's provision, generosity, and miracles Raising faithful children on the mission field Transitioning from full-time missions to family-focused ministry Advice for anyone who wants to live a no-regrets life Key Scriptures Referenced: Galatians 5:6 Hebrews (faith and perseverance themes) Acts (church planting and endurance) About the Guests Jordan and Caryn McLeod served for over a decade as missionaries in Jerusalem and Cyprus. They are parents of four children, many of whom are now serving in missions around the world. Their story reflects decades of faithful service, adaptability, and deep trust in God.
