Podcasts about Refinery29

This sums up the social media dilemma for me...I met this week's podcast guest on social media, and since forming a friendship online, we now send voice notes (aka mini podcasts) to each other about how much we hate social media. I never would've connected with Melissa if it wasn't for social media, yet a lot of our conversations are about how social media is negatively affecting our mental health.  In one of our voice note convos, Melissa said she'd had the realisation that her mental health would be better off without social media. And I said, "Me too." But in a world where it's normal to share the minutiae of our lives online (and a world where many of us use social media for work), is there a way for us to co-exist with social media and not be anxious?CAN COGNITIVE BEHAVIOURAL THERAPY SAVE US??We decided to bring our voice note conversations to an actual podcast episode. We don't solve the world's social media problems, but it was cathartic.  It's nice to know I'm not the only one that compares my life when scrolling through Insta feeds.  And hopefully, any anxious brains listening will get something out of the convo with Melissa, even if it's just to feel less alone.Melissa's Instagram (lol at the irony... but seriously she's one of my fave people to follow on Insta!): https://www.instagram.com/melissamason_/Melissa's article on Refinery29: https://www.refinery29.com/en-gb/is-social-media-ruining-our-holidays-vacationsAnd the CBT Workbook I mentioned: https://www.amazon.com.au/CBT-Workbook-Mental-Health-Evidence-Based/dp/1647398053Thanks to this week's sponsor Viviology - confusion-free cosmeceuticals by James Vivian at Adore Beauty.

ITT Staff Picks: Shamira Ibrahim writes about the power of photography and photo archives in preserving the rich culture and story of the Black community and rejecting negative stereotypes assigned to them, in this article published in Harper's Bazaar. Maram Ahmed highlights some of the talented Black Muslim women behind the rise of British Hip-Hop, in this article for Refinery29. “Speaking to CNN about McCarthy's proposal, Omar suggested that her religion played a role.

On June 24, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the case that legalized abortion in the country in 1973. The decision shocked many around the world, and has had folks wondering: could this happen here, at home, in Canada? And what led up to this historic moment in the U.S.? What are the real and current issues facing the state of abortion in Canada, and how can we make a difference?This two-part mini series is hosted by Sarah Sahagian, a feminist podcaster, writer, and non-profit executive living in Toronto. Her byline has appeared in such outlets as The Washington Post, The National Post, The Toronto Star, Refinery29, Romper, and Scary Mommy. In her previous life, she was a gender studies academic who studied parenting and mother blame. Sarah is also the co-host of Frequency Podcast Network's The Reheat. 

This year marks the 35th anniversary of the Supreme Court of Canada's Morgentaler Decision. That landmark decision decriminalized abortion across Canada and turned the courageous Dr. Henry Morgentaler into a household name. As pivotal a part of Canada's abortion rights story as Dr. Morgentaler was, many of us are unfamiliar with the stories of woman-identified activists who fought alongside him to ensure people who didn't want to be pregnant wouldn't have to be. So, who were the women who fought for abortion rights – and even helped others access illegal abortions – before The Morgentaler Decision? This two-part miniseries introduces listeners to a few of those voices. Hosted by Sarah Sahagian, a feminist podcaster, writer, and non-profit executive living in Toronto. Her byline has appeared in such outlets as The Washington Post, The National Post, The Toronto Star, Refinery29, Romper, and Scary Mommy. In her previous life, she was a gender studies academic who studied parenting and mother blame. Sarah is also the co-host of Frequency Podcast Network's The Reheat.

Irene Fehr, MA, CPCC, Certified Sex & Intimacy Coach, helps couples make love and sex work in long-term relationships and bring sex and passion into sexless ones. Determined to dispel myths about why sex dies in long-term monogamous relationships that cause heartache and broken dreams, Irene's views have been featured all around the world in HuffPost, Cosmopolitan, Shape, Refinery29, ScaryMommy, EliteDaily and Bustle. She is no stranger to her clients' issues, having recovered from the all-too-common story of ‘happy marriage turned sexless' when she lost her libido — all before turning 30.   Listen to this insightful Whinypaluza episode with Irene Fehr about the often-secret subject of loss of intimacy within a relationship and debunking the myths that women have about sex. Here is what to expect on this week's show: The painful feeling of losing one's libido and how it impacts all areas of life, including your sense of worth. Sexual desire is one of our most primal needs as a species. When this is lost, it affects us in myriad ways. Feeling the connection with it is very powerful. Myth 1: Women who are not sexual are broken. In the Western world, media and the greater social community would have women believe they are broken if they have a loss in libido. As a couple in a long-term relationship, it is necessary to deal with multiple sets of factors when desire is lost. Women often feel they need to match the same spontaneous desire that their male partners do. This just isn't realistic. Women generally have responsive sexual desire. Physical engagement and relaxation are precursors to desire and arousal for women. Myth 2: Women can do it all, be it all and still have energy and desire for intimacy at the end of the day. Despite women's capabilities to do much, they are only human and have finite energy and patience. Instead of pushing to do more, focus on removing things from your daily to-dos so you have room and energy left for intimacy. Myth 3: In a long-term relationship, women should want to have sex with the man they love just because they love them. There is not a single, automatic reason for wanting to have sex. It is more complex for women. Intimacy is created in moments of connection and positive stimuli with your partner. Myth 4: Assuming that engaging in obligatory sex will create a desire to engage in sex more. Filling the pleasure cup: small, but frequent moments of joy and pleasure throughout the day will add up and create a state in which you feel desire. These moments can be something a small as enjoying a quiet moment, or smelling a flower. How you and your partner can better communicate their needs and work together to create more intimacy.   Links Mentioned: https://www.irenefehr.com/ How To Want Sex Again video series https://www.irenefehr.com/wanting-sex-again Fee Your Libido program https://feedyourlibidocourse.com/   Connect with Irene: Twitter https://twitter.com/ignitedwoman YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCR09-jgEvU89NH9CwoJ2I1Q LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/irenefehr/ Follow Rebecca Greene Blog  https://www.whinypaluza.com/ Book 1  https://bit.ly/WhinypaluzaBook Book 2 https://bit.ly/whinybook2 Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/whinypaluzaparenting Instagram https://www.instagram.com/becgreene5/ @becgreene5 TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@whinypaluzamom?lang=en @whinypaluzamom Learn more about your ad choices.

An entrepreneur from a young age, Stephanie Cartin walked away from her corporate gig to launch Socialfly, a leading social-first digital and influencer agency based in New York City. Within seven years, Socialfly has blossomed to over 30 full-time employees, helping over 200 brands including the Girl Scouts, Samsung SmartThings, Nest Fragrances, 20th Century Fox and Univision. Stephanie is the Co-Author of "Like, Love, Follow: The Entreprenista's Guide to Using Social Media To Grow Your Business,” and the Co-Host of the Entreprenista Podcast. She has appeared and been featured on Bloomberg, Forbes, entrepreneur.com, Refinery29, and CheddarTV. Stephanie is also a recent recipient of the SmartCEO Brava award, which recognizes the top female CEOs in New York and a Stevie Award for Women Run Workplace of the Year. On the personal side of things, Stephanie Cartin was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) at the age of 27 and it has been tough for her to deal with both the symptoms and the treatments. However, dealing with infertility was something else entirely. She always knew that she wanted to be a mom but had no idea she would have to deal with infertility, especially as early as age 30. She is a successful business owner and has a supportive husband, but no amount of success or support prepared her for the often-shocking, painful, and confusing infertility journey she has been on.  In this episode, we discuss: Her physically challenging and emotional journey into motherhood. Advocating for herself medically. Finding a village of women on Facebook dealing with the same medical and fertility issues she was. How she and her business partner hope to impact the business community with The Entreprenista League.  Her approach to work/life integration.  How she shows up as her best self and overcomes self-doubt.  Resources mentioned in this episode: COR Parenting Conversations by Caley Kukla Good Inside by Dr. Becky Entreprenista Podcast Connect with Stephanie on LinkedIn or Instagram.  Connect with me:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the.motherhood.village1/  YouTube: The Motherhood Village - YouTube LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolegcumberbatch/  Website: https://www.themotherhoodvillage.com/ Loved this episode?

Welcome back to The Truth About Addiction (and living sober.) Today's guest is a sober friend and professional mastermind named Devon Craig.  Early into sobriety, Devon's career took off and gave her a life on the outside that culture and years of conditioning tells us we all want. Despite lots of accolades and financial successes, her intuition told her when things weren't right. She continued to pivot and trusted that she would land on her feet. One decision at a time, her recovery proved strong enough to remind her that success doesn't mean much if we are exhausted, lonely and empty inside. Her career story is a beautiful testament to how critical it is to work a 12 step program in all areas of our lives (sober or not!) so that we stay true to what really matters-love, connection and a deep sense of belonging.Check out her bio below!Devon Craig is a purpose-fueled marketer dedicated to creating experiences that educate and deepen the connection between consumers and the way they consume. Devon's formative years with lululemon provided her with an incredible foundation that has inspired her work both in-house and in-agency for brands including Commune, OWN, Spotify, Roc Nation, Live Nation, The Caterpillar Foundation, Refinery29, Well + Good, Wanderlust, Adidas, Ford, and Tidal. Though Devon's professional expertise lies in marketing, digital innovation, and product growth, her personal mission is to deconstruct our perceived sense of separateness to enable people to come together around common values and a shared sense of humanity. Devon's commitment to cultivating impact that elicits change has manifested in her deep passion for storytelling, team building, and an unyielding commitment to Diversity, Inclusion + Belonging (DIBs).#thetruthaboutaddiction#sobriety#the12steps#recovery#therapy#mentalhealth#podcasts

This week the books I am reading from are 'The Book of Seances' by Claire Goodchild and 'The UFO Phenomenon: Should I Believe?' by Dr. Robert Davis.Dr Robert DavisTHE EXTRAORDINARY SCIENCE OF CONSCIOUSNESSWhat is consciousness? No one knows for sure. It's a mystery of modern science. Yet, it's one of the most profound questions confronting humanity. The study of consciousness, from research in biology, psychology, quantum theory, and parapsychology gives us some insight. But the true nature of human consciousness remains elusive. Join us as we explore this profound mystery and look to the world's leading experts, who are searching for the answers to this “missing link” in the new docu-film, The Consciousness Connection.Dr. Robert Davis is an internationally recognized scientist in his field. He graduated with a PhD in sensory neuroscience from the Ohio State University and served as a professor at the State University of New York for over 30 years. Davis has published over 60 articles in scholarly journals, lectured at numerous national and international conferences, and was awarded major grants by scientific organizations to fund research in the neurosciences. He is the author of two popular books: The UFO Phenomenon: Should I Believe? and Life after Death: An Analysis of the Evidence. He has discussed his work at conferences throughout the world and has appeared on many podcast and radio shows. Currently working with David Beaty producing and interviewing the world's leading experts, who are searching for the answers to this “missing link” in the new docu-film, The Consciousness Connection.https://consciousnessfilm.info/https://bobdavisspeaks.com/Claire Goodchild.From an award-winning artist, a beautifully mysterious guide to conducting seances and communing with the spirits in our conscious and unconscious lives.As long as people have lived, they have longed for wisdom and comfort from those who have died.

The Book of Séances provides hauntingly lovely signposts into our own personal mythology as revealed through our conscious and unconscious lives.BioI started Black and the Moon in 2011 because I felt there was a lack of stylish and unique decks on the market, and I wanted my readings to be enhanced by the artwork that I love. I knew if I was feeling this way, other people must be to! My first project was the Antique Anatomy Tarot, which was completed in 2013, and it quickly became a staple in the indie market (now mass-market by Quarto).

Ever wonder how certain fragrances make their ways into different publications' ‘Best Of' lists or editorial roundups? Is it determined by the quality of the product OR perhaps just the quality of the PR team behind it? Today, Refinery29's Sr. Beauty Editor Amanda Mitchell is answering all the hard questions. As a beauty editor, Amanda is not only constantly testing new products, she's also trying all the latest beauty treatments, procedures, and experiences. Amanda shares her thoughts on press events/experiences vs. influencer ones (/including some piping hot takes on editors vs. influencers), but we also get into a much more important conversation surrounding these types of events: inclusion (or... lack thereof). Amanda discusses this industry-wide issue as well as how she's helped change it, plus she shares her process for curating her own editorial rounds ups and tells us what she's loving most right now. Oh and PS — if you didn't know, Amanda is single so slideeee into those DMs. FRAGS MENTIONED: Phlur Tangerine Boy, Ourside Nostalgia, Ellis Brooklyn Vanilla Milk, Lake & Skye: 11 11, Midnight 07; Betsey Johnson EDP, Maison Margiela Replica By the Fireplace, YSL Black Opium, Mugler Angel, Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream, Laura Mercier hand cream, Chanel No. 5, Glosser You, Eilish 2, Eilish 1, Moodeaux, Ourside Dusk, Kayali, Byredo, Kilian Love Don't Be Shy, Le Labo Santal 33, Dossier, Kierin Pier NY, The Maker Fire, Malin Goetz x Kith Vapor, Maya Njie Tobak SHOP THIS EPISODE: https://shopmy.us/collections/108488 FOLLOW AMANDA: @lochnessamanda FOLLOW PERFUME ROOM: @perfumeroompod (IG) @emma_vern (TT)

Today's guest is Sarah Levy; she's a writer in recovery and author of the new book “Drinking Games.” At the age of 28, Sarah, on paper, looked like she had it all together, a great job – and a successful life that was on track. The truth was she felt empty and alone, suffered from blackouts, and repeatedly put herself in dangerous situations. Sarah thought using alcohol helped heal her broken heart, empowered her to date, and quenched her thirst for validation. But drinking only numbed her pain and dimmed her light as she dated different kinds of men, feeling perpetually hung over and spiritually bankrupt. When she gave up alcohol, she thought her life was over. But for Sarah, her last sip was the moment when her life started. In sobriety, she fell in love, changed careers, moved across the country, got married, published a must-read book, and became the woman she is today. If you're looking to change your relationship with alcohol, are sober curious, or want to be inspired, then this episode is for you!Sarah Levy is the author of Drinking Games, a memoir in essays from St. Martin's Press. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, New York Magazine (The Cut), Glamour, Elle, Vogue, Refinery29, and Cosmopolitan, among other publications. Sarah has written articles such as “Falling In Love Without Alcohol” and “Giving Up Alcohol Made Me Date Again Like a Teenager.” Drinking Games has been named most anticipated by Good Morning America, Good Day DC, the LA Times, New York Post, Zibby Mag, Buzzfeed Books, Pure Wow, and Apple Books to name a few. And the favorable reviews keep on coming! Sarah is a graduate of Brown University and lives in Los Angeles by way of New York City.I'm excited to feature Sarah on Shot@Love today and admire her greatly for spreading awareness around sobriety and her goals to change the culture around addiction and alcoholism. I hope you enjoy this conversation.To learn more about Sarah Levy, go to www.sarahllevy.com or follow her on Instagram @sarahllevy.

Vice Media Group ended 2022 behind where it thought it was going to be — about $100 million short of the revenue goal of $700 million set by its leadership at the beginning of the year. But Geoff Schiller, VMG's global EVP of commercial & sales strategy is optimistic that events, intellectual property and digital video will be the sellable assets that carry the company forward in 2023. That's because in his first quarter on the job (Schiller joined VMG in September after leaving Group Nine/Vox Media in June after almost three years), those products were the top areas of focus for advertisers, including partnering with VMG's brands at Art Basel in Miami. Where other publishers reported growth in quick-turn campaigns and ads, like programmatic during the fourth quarter, Schiller said branded assets were still top of mind for Vice's clients. In the latest episode of the Digiday Podcast, Schiller discusses his team's strategy for selling new products in 2023, like Refinery29's Twitch programming, as well as his philosophy on how hard to lean into revenue-share programs on social media.
