Many experts say it's best to follow your baby's hunger cues rather than adhere to a strict feeding schedule — especially in the newborn stage. This is often called "on demand" or "responsive feeding," and you can do it whether you breastfeed or feed your baby through a bottle. What are typical cues moms should be aware of? What does responsive feeding look like after a baby starts eating solids? And why do some moms choose to continue responsive feeding into toddlerhood? Learn more about your ad choices.

Starting solids can feel like a confusing milestone but it does not have to be. In this episode, registered dietitian and infant feeding expert Malina Malkani joins us to unpack the latest research and practical strategies around baby led feeding, allergen introduction, and responsive feeding. Whether you are just starting solids or navigating food allergy concerns, this episode offers a reassuring and evidence-informed roadmap to help you feel confident in your feeding decisions. We explore the difference between baby led feeding and traditional purees, when and how to safely introduce top allergens like peanut and egg, and how early feeding habits can shape a child's long term relationship with food. Malina also shares common myths around choking, how to recognize readiness for solids, and why a flexible feeding approach often leads to less picky eating down the road. This is a must listen for parents looking to reduce the overwhelm, ditch the food fears, and start solids with clarity and calm.  Topics Covered In This Episode: Baby-led feeding versus traditional purees How to prevent food allergies through early exposure Signs of readiness for solid food Responsive feeding and hunger cues How to reduce choking risk with first foods Safe ways to introduce peanut butter egg dairy and more How feeding flexibility supports picky eating prevention Tips for easing the mental load of starting solids Show Notes: Order my new BLW + FOOD ALLERGY PREVENTION cookbook!

In this conversation, you'll get key insights on things like: • Why many nonprofits leave donor potential on the table after events • What behavioral signals to look for to identify committed supporters • How auctions, raffles, and follow-up strategies can drive donor lifetime value • Why a responsive mindset is key to connecting donors with your mission beyond the ballroom Trevor reminds us that if you're only thinking about dollars raised that night, you're missing the real opportunity.

70: Antioxidants to Consider for Horses with Poor Eye Health

This week, we continue where we left off last week, exploring equine eye conditions through a holistic lens.A holistic approach focuses primarily on optimizing the diet and lifestyle of horses, providing everything they need to support their overall health and maintain healthy eyes.Long-Term Health Issues Often Begin with DeficienciesChronic deficiencies, prolonged stress, and toxin exposure are often the root causes of long-term health issues in horses. Those problems develop slowly, sometimes taking years to show symptoms. Even though genetics may be an underlying factor, nutrition is crucial in determining health outcomes.Protecting the Eyes of Prey AnimalsEyesight is critical for horses to feel safe. Vision loss increases their anxiety and vulnerability. Keeping blind or visually impaired horses calm, secure, and well-supported within a herd can help to reduce their stress and improve their quality of life.Antioxidants Play a Crucial Role in PreventionAntioxidants help reduce oxidative stress, support immune function and detox systems, and protect the sensitive eye tissues. Even without eye symptoms, improved nutrition supports clearer and healthier eyes. A targeted supplement plan should always match the specific needs of each horse.Selenium: An Underrated PowerhouseSelenium deficiency is common in horses, affecting their coat, muscles, metabolism, and more. Selenium indirectly supports the eyes by boosting antioxidant defenses, especially when paired with vitamin E. While it is not an eye-specific nutrient, selenium does contribute to overall equine resilience.Vitamin E is Essential and Often DeficientVitamin E is often lacking in hay-fed horses. Vitamin E protects the tissues from oxidative damage and plays a key role in eye health and detox support. High doses may be required to correct deficiencies in horses, especially for performance or aging horses.The Right Dosage and Timing MatterToo many antioxidants at once can overwhelm the body. Start with one or two at low doses and monitor progress over several weeks. Horses with autoimmune issues, like uveitis, need especially careful and gradual supplementation.Zinc: The Surprise Ally for Eye HealthZinc supports metabolism, thyroid function, liver health, and immunity. It also helps with weepy eyes and visual clarity, likely due to its high concentration in ocular tissue and role in processing light. Zinc works well with vitamin A to support vision.Be Cautious and Responsive with ZincNot all horses need zinc. Try using low doses of about 150 mg elemental zinc in an organic form and observe. If there is no visible improvement within 6–8 weeks, zinc might not be the right solution. Beta Carotene: A Natural Source of Eye SupportBeta carotene, found in fresh forage and colorful foods like carrots, supports vision and immune health. It converts to vitamin A, which helps with light processing. Forage-based diets naturally provide more beta carotene than hay.Support Through Food Whenever PossibleWhole foods and high-quality forage offer the best long-term nutritional support. While supplements are valuable, a varied, nutrient-dense diet reduces dependence on pills and powders and supports holistic, sustainable health.Links and resources:Connect with Elisha Edwards on her website Join my email list to be notified about new podcast releases and upcoming webinars.Free Webinar Masterclass:

In this episode of Everyday Injustice, we sit down with Emily Salisbury, Director of the Utah Criminal Justice Center and associate professor in the University of Utah's College of Social Work. Trained as a criminologist with a background in forensic psychology, Salisbury has spent her career focusing on justice-involved women and the unique pathways that lead them into—and out of—the criminal legal system. Her early mentorship in graduate school, she explains, inspired her to pursue gender-responsive research and advocate for policy reforms that meet women where they are. Salisbury breaks down why women are the fastest-growing population in U.S. carceral systems, pointing to decades of tough-on-crime policies, mandatory minimums, and drug sentencing laws that disproportionately ensnare economically marginalized women of color. She underscores how trauma, mental illness, and unhealthy relationships often drive women into the system—noting that traditional correctional strategies, built with men in mind, fail to account for these realities. Salisbury stresses that trauma affects women differently than men, often manifesting as internalized harm rather than outward aggression. A central part of her work has been developing the Women's Risk Needs Assessment (WRNA), a validated, trauma-informed tool that identifies the specific challenges and strengths of justice-involved women. Unlike traditional assessments, WRNA includes questions on trauma, unhealthy relationships, and personal resilience—offering a more holistic picture of what women need for successful reentry. Salisbury shares how correctional institutions are beginning to embrace gender-responsive probation models and notes the importance of rigorous research, including randomized controlled trials, to ensure these approaches are effective and evidence-based. The conversation concludes with a powerful takeaway: women in the criminal legal system pose far less risk to public safety than men, yet they continue to be over-incarcerated. Salisbury discusses the broader implications of abolitionist thinking, international models of humane incarceration, and the urgent need to invest in early intervention and community-based support. As Salisbury puts it, the key to justice reform isn't more surveillance or punishment—but understanding, compassion, and policies that treat people with dignity.

Have you ever felt that God was silent or distant? It may be His invitation for you to know Him in a deeper way. In our spiritual journey, God sometimes trusts us with silence. It's not absence - it's intimacy. He's calling us beyond goosebumps and feelings, into a mature relationship with Him. Join us in this episode, where Nancy McCready draws from Oswald Chambers' suggestion that God's silence is not an absence of His presence, but a sign of His intimacy and a means of bringing you into a deeper understanding of Himself. Let's not mistake the absence of feelings for the absence of God. He desires mature sons who know Him deeply in spirit. He wants intimacy with you that goes beyond the surface level.

Enterprise Connect Podcast | Technology Reseller News “AI isn't here to replace humans — it's here to make customer service smarter, faster, and more efficient.” – Jill Blankenship, CEO, Frontline Group In this special Enterprise Connect 2025 episode, Technology Reseller News publisher Doug Green sat down with Frontline Group CEO Jill Blankenship and CRO Matt Bramson to explore the company's dual mission: delivering cutting-edge customer experience technology while keeping the human touch front and center. Frontline's Edge: A Foot in Both Worlds Frontline isn't just advising businesses on CCaaS — they're living it daily through their own 350-seat contact center. This real-world expertise enables them to offer something unique: deployment strategies informed by frontline operations. That hybrid approach — combining software like NICE CXone and Zoom with agent services and consultative support — is what sets them apart. AI That Supports Agents — Not Replaces Them Rather than jumping on the “AI-first” bandwagon, Frontline brings a pragmatic view. AI is already embedded in their analytics, quality management, and workforce tools. Their focus? Using AI to empower agents, reduce repetitive calls, and improve both CSAT and agent retention. “We envision a future with AI-driven service,” said Bramson, “but customers still need human empathy.” Resilient, Responsive, Ready When a global company with nearly 10,000 agents lost its internal CX team overnight, Frontline stepped in — not in months, but in days. They deployed a full support team, onboarded agents, and stabilized operations fast. That kind of agility is made possible by deep platform expertise and decades of team experience. Built for SMB & Mid-Market Success Unlike traditional CCaaS vendors focused on large enterprises, Frontline tailors solutions for SMBs and mid-market firms in regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and government. Whether it's compliance, rapid onboarding, or integrating omnichannel AI solutions, Frontline helps these clients scale without sacrificing quality. Looking Ahead: Human-Centered AI Blankenship founded the company to solve real-world customer service challenges. Now, she's leading it into a future where AI and human agents work in tandem. With a 98% client retention rate and a reputation for fast, flexible implementations, Frontline is poised to help more businesses navigate CX transformation in the AI age.

Danielle Allen and Mark Fagan say that when tested, thoughtfully deployed, and regulated AI actually can help governments serve citizens better. Sure, there is no shortage of horror stories these days about the intersection of AI and government—from a municipal chatbot that told restaurant owners it was OK to serve food that had been gnawed by rodents to artificial intelligence police tools that misidentify suspects through faulty facial recognition. And now the Trump administration and Elon Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE say they are fast-tracking the use of AI to root out government waste and fraud, while making public virtually no details about what tools they are using or how they'll be deployed. But Allen and Fagan, say that while careless deployment creates risks like opening security holes, exacerbating inefficiencies, and automating flawed decision-making, AI done the right way can help administrators and policymakers make better and smarter decisions, and can make governments more accessible and responsive to the citizens they serve. They also say we need to reorient our thinking from AI being a replacement for human judgement to a partnership model, where each brings its strengths to the table. Danielle Allen is an HKS professor and the founder of the Allen Lab for Democracy Renovation. Mark Fagan is a lecturer in public policy and faculty chair of the Delivering Public Services section of the Executive Education Program at HKS. They join PolicyCast host Ralph Ranalli to explain the guidelines, guardrails, and principles that can help government get AI right. Policy Recommendations:Danielle Allen's Policy Recommendations:* Support the "people's bid" for TikTok and generally promote an alternative, pro-social model for social media platforms.* Establish AI offices in state governments: Create offices that use AI to enhance openness, accountability, and transparency in government.Mark Fagan's Policy Recommendations:* Implement "sandbox" spaces for regulatory experimentation that allow organizations to test different policy ideas in a controlled environment to see what works.* Adopt a risk-based regulatory approach similar to the EU that categorize AI regulations based on risk levels, with clear guidelines on high-risk activities where AI use is prohibited versus those where experimentation is allowed. Danielle Allen is the James Bryant Conant University Professor at Harvard University. She is a professor of political philosophy, ethics, and public policy and director of the Democratic Knowledge Project and of the Allen Lab for Democracy Renovation. She is also a seasoned nonprofit leader, democracy advocate, national voice on AI and tech ethics, and author. A past chair of the Mellon Foundation and Pulitzer Prize Board, and former dean of humanities at the University of Chicago, she is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and American Philosophical Society. Her many books include the widely acclaimed Talking to Strangers: Anxieties of Citizenship Since Brown v Board of Education;  Our Declaration: a reading of the Declaration of Independence in defense of equality; Cuz: The Life and Times of Michael A.; Democracy in the Time of Coronavirus; and Justice by Means of Democracy.
