    Hello & welcome back to Raw Intentions! This week's episode is a vulnerable, beautiful conversation with Kelly Mazanti - founder of Buttnski and cofounder of Rural is Rad. Kelly grew up in the outdoors, lives in Summit County, and is in the middle of a major life shift after going through a divorce. We talk about rediscovering yourself in your 30's, mindfulness, gratitude, and the practice of not caring what other people think. Kelly shares the highs and lows of owning a business, the story behind her quirky, cozy ski brand, and what it's like to be part of the rural Colorado small business scene. If you're navigating a hard season or just need a reminder that you're not alone, this episode is for you xx  Kelly Mazanti: https://www.instagram.com/kmazanti/?hl=enButtnski: https://www.instagram.com/buttnski/?hl=enShop Raw & Rebellious: https://www.rawrebellious.com/Raw & Rebellious Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/raw_rebellious/Raw & Rebellious TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@raw_rebellious?lang=enRaw Intentions Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rawintentionspodcast/

    In this urgent conversation, Congressman Eric Swalwell breaks down what's at stake with the so-called “Big Fugly Bill” currently making its way through Congress. He exposes the real consequences—skyrocketing healthcare and energy costs, corporate giveaways, and devastating impacts on everyday Americans. Swalwell makes it clear: this bill is wildly unpopular for a reason. He calls on all of us to stay engaged, get loud, and pressure our representatives to vote no before it's too late. What We're Talking About... The 'fugly bill' is facing significant opposition in Congress. Republicans are struggling to gather enough votes to pass the bill. The bill could lead to millions losing their healthcare. Cuts to healthcare will affect everyone, not just those on Medicaid. Rural hospitals are at risk of closing due to the bill. The bill is seen as a favor to wealthy donors rather than constituents. Public engagement is crucial in influencing representatives' votes. Every call to a representative matters in this tight vote. The bill's unpopularity is widespread across party lines. Coalition-building is essential to oppose harmful legislation.

    The case for diversity in healthcare professions is strong. Research shows that a diverse healthcare workforce improves health outcomes, particularly for patients of color, and also increases people's access to care and their perception of the care they receive.  Physicians of color are more likely to build careers in underserved communities, which can contribute even more toward the goal of reducing healthcare disparities. So, what does it take to cultivate a strong and diverse health care workforce? On this week's episode, we gain insights from two knowledgeable guests, who spoke with Dr. Hadiya Green at  Movement Is Life's annual summit: Dr. Cheryl Brewster, Senior Executive Dean for Access, Opportunity, and Collaboration and a Professor in the Department of Bioethics, Humanism, and Policy Roseman University College of Medicine Dr. Jarrod Lockhart, formerly an instructor at Morehouse School of Medicine, now Assistant Vice Provost, Education Outreach & Collaboration at Oregon Health & Science University Never miss an episode – be sure to subscribe to The Health Disparities podcast from Movement Is Life on Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

    Breaking the Stigma: Grace Ogren on Depression, Ketamine Therapy & the Truth About Healing

    In this deeply human and research-informed conversation, clinical research specialist Grace Ogren joins Avik Chakraborty to unpack the complexity of depression and how it's commonly misunderstood. From her personal experience with chronic suicidality and psychiatric treatment to her work with emerging therapies like ketamine, Grace speaks candidly about the real barriers to healing, the misconceptions around antidepressants, and why access—especially in rural areas—remains a critical issue. This is not a conversation about quick fixes but about how healing actually unfolds—messy, nonlinear, and courageous. About the Guest:Grace Ogren is a mental health researcher, writer, and clinical research specialist at Recovery.com. Drawing from both professional expertise and lived experience, Grace brings clarity to complicated mental health topics, including depression, suicidality, psychiatric stigma, and the therapeutic potential of ketamine. She's committed to making mental healthcare more honest, informed, and accessible. Key Takeaways: Depression isn't just sadness—it's a complete shift in how the brain functions, and it affects every aspect of daily life. Ketamine therapy, while not a cure, can provide relief when traditional medications fail, helping patients access deeper therapeutic healing. There's still significant stigma surrounding psychiatric medication—Grace urges we treat it no differently than taking meds for any other chronic condition. Rural communities face serious mental health care shortages, making telehealth a vital bridge. Medications aren't Band-Aids; they're tools that can help stabilize someone enough to benefit from deeper therapy and recovery work.
