Podcasts about safe spaces

Sabine ist Gerichtsreporterin und Stimme von ZEIT Verbrechen, Filiz ist Comedienne und tourte dieses Jahr mit ihrer ersten Solo-Show, Fahri ist Schauspieler und Produzent und Aki Bosse ist Musiker, der gerade mit neuen Songs unterwegs ist. Ich wollte von den vier wissen, wie ihr Jahr war, welche Veränderungen sie beschäftigt haben und warum rund um Weihnachten manchmal die ehrlichsten Momente des Jahres entstehen. Wir sprechen über Midlife-Crisis, Stress ohne Urlaub, Hangover, Mordprozesse, Shitstorms, Kinder, die ausziehen, Safe-Spaces für Humor, Frühlingsenergie und Wintertief, Weltlage-Frust und Hoffnung. Es war eine sehr besondere Weihnachtsfolge inklusive Live-Experiment von Fahri – und ich freue mich, das Jahr mit so viel Lachen abschließen zu können.

Dive into Episode #160 of the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast, featuring host Dr. I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, and special guest Dr. Heliana Ramirez, a licensed clinical social worker, trauma therapist, and nationally recognized expert in workplace trauma recovery, and a guest from episode 96 of the podcast. In this episode, Dr. Ramirez shares her research on the challenges pregnant workers face in the workplace. The research also served as the basis for her contribution to a new book, “Corporate Blues,” which includes a series of stories about women in Toxic workplaces.

“Creating safe spaces has always been important to me,” says Kayana Sessoms—and that truth runs like a healing current through this Detroit is Different conversation with the founder of Hitha Healing House, a sacred space born from legacy, loss, and love. Kayana traces her roots through Mississippi, Arkansas, and Detroit's west side, grounding her story in three generations of Black migration, creativity, and care. From being a “JoAnn Fabrics kid” turning her childhood home into a museum of imagination, to becoming a teenage peer mentor holding space for families in crisis, Kayana shares how affirmation, artistry, and community shaped her calling. She reflects on learning early that healing requires ritual—“ground yourself,” “protect your energy,” “listen in silence”—and how Eastern practices, mind management, and ancestral wisdom became tools for survival and service. Her journey stretches from Detroit to Sierra Leone, Atlanta to Osborne High School, always circling back to access, equity, and Black maternal wellness. The founding of Hitha Healing House after the loss of her father and the birth of her son becomes a powerful meditation on legacy Black culture—how we carry the past, heal in the present, and build futures rooted in care. This episode is a masterclass in why healing is culture, and why Detroit has always known how to do it. Detroit is Different is a podcast hosted by Khary Frazier covering people adding to the culture of an American Classic city.

On this week's Weathering The Run, I sit down with Chris Glover who is a cornerstone of the Columbus running community known for bringing people together, spreading joy in the sport, and building connection one mile at a time.

In this deeply reflective holiday episode, Dr. Judith explores a forgotten truth: there is a stillness inside you more constant than storms, more faithful than circumstances, and more luminous than fear. Through stories, soul-dialogue, and practical spiritual tools, she guides you into what it means to “Become Your Own Safe Space”—a place where identity isn't built on outcomes, approval, or perfection, but on the indestructible depth of the soul. Whether you're navigating the emotional complexity of the holidays, healing from loss, or simply longing for inner steadiness, this episode reminds you that the quiet flame within—the I AM Presence, the Christ-light, the eternal spark—never fades. Dr. Judith weaves narrative stories, analogies of winter storms, biblical anchors, and spiritual psychology to help you remember who you really are beneath fear, doubt, and self-deception. You'll learn how to root yourself in your inner wholeness, how to reconnect to presence through simple but transformative practices, and how to carry your soul's peace into family gatherings, solitude, or seasonal overwhelm. This is a powerful December teaching on moving from anxiety to anchoredness, from external seeking to internal knowing, and from emotional storms to spiritual stillness.TIMESTAMPS

Send us a Positive Review!In this episode of Latter Day Struggles, Valerie and guest Maxine Hanks dive into the complexities of reform and personal wellness within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.This fascinating conversation explores the first-hand experience of two women whose influential work spans a half-century in the LDS spotlight. With this time-span as a reference point, they discuss how the focus of institutional reprimand and control has shifted from scholars to mental health professionals, especially mental health workers who publicly address complex issues at the intersection of identity development, mental health, and its connection to LDS theology and practice. Further, they explore the phenomenon of "diffuse policing," where in some wards and stakes, fellow members, rather than just church leaders, report and judge one another, leading to a sense of danger and exclusion within spiritual communities. Ultimately, they call for continued efforts to embody love, create safe spaces, and support the health and healing of all members, at every stage of the faith journey. Books Referenced in this episode:"The Ghost of Eternal Polygamy" by Carol Lynn Pearson"Women and Authority: Re-Emerging Mormon Feminism" by Maxine HanksTimestamps:00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:49 Reflecting on Sacred Work01:49 Comparing Different Eras03:01 The Impact of the Internet06:02 Public vs. Private Scholarship09:09 Mental Health Workers Under Fire14:07 Balancing Individual and Institutional Needs18:38 The Role of Mental Health in Faith Journeys24:18 The New Taboo: Mental Health and LGBTQ Issues25:40 Identity and Wellbeing: A Personal Journey27:31 The Role of Mental Health Workers in the Church30:32 Institutional Insecurity and Individual Growth33:09 Policing and Persecution Within the Church37:35 The Erosion of Safe Spaces in the Church45:20 The Greatest Danger to the Church Today49:51 Concluding Thoughts: Embodying Love and CompassionAdditional Episodes Referenced:Ep. 179 - 182: Maxine Hanks Life StoryEp. 222, 272: Maxine Hanks and Jody England Hansen on the recent garment changesSupport the showSupport the show Listen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODES Friday Episodes Annual Access $89 Friday Episodes Monthly Access $10 Valerie's Support & Processing Groups Gift a Scholarship Download Free Resources Visit our Website

We recommend using a product kit like Lux Rock or Marble Dream from Daich Coatings, noting that she should lightly sand the Formica surface beforehand to ensure the coating adheres well. - Jeremy from Pennsylvania was dealing with a small leak and musty smell in the corner of his finished basement with a block foundation. We suggest that the problem is caused by exterior drainage, advising him to extend his downspout and fix any grading issues to relieve water pressure. - Taylor in Michigan reported that her doors were sticking, specifically toward the top, due to swelling. We advise checking the hinges for loose screws and using chalk or dark lipstick on the door edges to identify the exact sticking point before attempting minor adjustments to realign the door in the jam. - Robin was dealing with mold growth coming out of the jets of her jacuzzi tub. We suggest filling the tub with hot water and either bleach (if not on septic) or an environmentally safe dish soap like Simple Green to sanitize the pipes. - Carolyn in Pennsylvania had a lingering musty odor in her kitchen's lazy Susan cabinet after mold grew inside.

Welcome back to Pep Talk Friday! In this episode of Raising Confident Girls, Melissa Jones dives into something so many parents quietly worry about: How do I really support my daughter when I'm not even sure what she's feeling?

Your warm, steady presence creates the space your daughter needs to process her feelings, move through tough moments, and feel deeply supported.If you know a parent who might need this encouragement today, share the episode with them. We're all growing, learning, and showing up the best we can—and together, we can raise daughters who feel safe, seen, and understood.Melissa's Links:• Website • Instagram • Facebook• TikTok• LinkedIn

Acts 10:34-48 with Special Guest Dr. Erez Soref, President of One For Israel

Creating spaces where people feel safe, respected, and able to show up as their full selves isn't just “nice to have” anymore—it's necessary. As conversations about diversity and inclusion get quieter in some rooms, the need for brave, supportive communities grows louder. Whether you're learning, leading, or simply trying to navigate today's workplace culture, empathy, curiosity, and belonging are the foundation of any environment where people can thrive.This theme came through powerfully in my conversation with Gemma Toner of Tone Networks. Her work offers a clear example of what's possible when we intentionally build communities that put people first.Safe Spaces Are a LifelineIn a moment where formal DEI programs are being scaled back or eliminated, people still need places to learn, ask questions, and connect without fear of being judged. That's where platforms like Tone Networks shine. Their community was built with accessibility in mind—not just in terms of content, but in terms of comfort.Instead of traditional, rigid learning structures, they create experiences where people can engage, reflect, and grow at their own pace. Anonymous questions, bite-sized content, and a truly welcoming environment make it easier for folks to step in without feeling like they need to perform or “get it right.” When people feel safe, they're more willing to stretch, listen, and understand.And that matters now more than ever.Empathy as the Entry PointIf safe spaces are the goal, empathy is the door we walk through to get there.Empathy doesn't require us to agree with someone; it requires us to try to understand them. It's slowing down long enough to ask, “What might be true for them right now?”When we give people grace—recognizing that a tough moment doesn't define their whole character—we build trust. That trust becomes the foundation for deeper conversations, more honest reflection, and more courageous learning.And it doesn't end with others. Empathy toward ourselves—especially when we're overwhelmed or unsure—helps us stay grounded and curious rather than defensive.Curiosity Keeps Us ConnectedCuriosity helps us move beyond our own lenses. Every one of us brings multiple dimensions of identity into a room—race, gender, family roles, lived experiences, culture, values, and more. Some of those things are visible. Others are not.When we lead with curiosity instead of assumptions, we create space to understand the fuller picture of someone's identity. This shift moves us from “I know what you need” to “Help me understand your experience.”That mindset makes room for people to bring their whole selves—not just the parts they think will be accepted.Inclusion Means Embracing Our Multidimensional LivesInclusivity isn't about building spaces for one group—it's about building spaces where people with a range of identities feel seen, heard, and supported.Yes, some spaces intentionally center marginalized voices to address the gaps they experience. But that doesn't make them exclusionary. It means there's a purpose and a point of connection. It means people get the chance to be understood without having to defend their existence.When everyone is welcomed and encouraged to learn from each other's lived experiences, communities become richer and more resilient. It's the opposite of division—it's intentional connection.Respect and Community Hold It All TogetherA community can only be as strong as its agreements. Tone Networks models this beautifully by setting boundaries around respect, accountability, and compassion. Those expectations help shape a culture where people feel like they can speak freely and know the space will be held with care.The same applies in workplaces, classrooms, and everyday life.Clear expectations help us protect the emotional safety of the people around us. And when people feel safe, they show up more fully—not just as employees or learners, but as human beings.Personal Growth Is Part of InclusionInclusion isn't just about policy. It's also about personal practice.It's the gratitude list you write in the morning.It's the cup of tea that anchors your day.It's the small moments of self-care that refill your energy.It's helping someone when you can, because your cup feels full enough to share.Those grounding practices strengthen our capacity to lead with empathy and patience. When we're running on empty, it's much harder to be open, curious, or generous. Self-care isn't separate from inclusion—it fuels it.Meeting People Where They Are MattersWhether you're nurturing a community or leading a team, understanding your audience is key. People engage when the message fits their needs, their pace, and their lived experience. It's not about diluting the truth—it's about delivering it in a way that people can actually receive.Customized messaging shows care.Listening to your people shows respect.Creating access shows commitment.And that's how communities grow—in trust, not in fear.Our Charge Moving ForwardSafe spaces don't happen by accident. They're built with intention, compassion, and a willingness to learn from one another. When we anchor ourselves in empathy, stay curious, and honor the full identities of the people around us, we lay the groundwork for environments where everyone can breathe a little easier.Platforms like Tone Networks remind us that inclusive learning is still very much alive—and deeply needed. But this work doesn't just live in virtual communities. It lives in our homes, workplaces, friendships, and leadership choices.If we want a more equitable world, we must create the conditions for people to feel seen and safe. That starts with us—how we listen, how we show up, and how we treat one another.And when we commit to building these spaces with care, we help create a culture where people don't just survive—they thrive.

Send us a textIn this special mental health episode of The Day's Grimm, hosts Brian Michael Day and Thomas Grimm welcome back Licensed Clinical Social Worker Lori Riley of Blue Skies Mindfulness to take a deep dive into EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy! Brian shares his personal journey of finally committing to therapy and his initial, intense experience with the first stages of EMDR, including the crucial process of building a mental "safe space".Lori Riley, LCSW, breaks down everything you need to know about this powerful trauma treatment modality:What is EMDR? Defining Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as psychotherapy that helps heal emotional distress from disturbing life experiences by using bilateral stimulation.Bilateral Stimulation: Discussing the different tools used for bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements, the "buzzies" (vibrating eggs), or tapping.The Safe Space & Container Technique: Explaining the importance of building a mental "safe space" as a pausing mechanism during sessions, and the "container" technique for temporarily putting away triggering thoughts, people, or nightmares.Managing Intensity: Lori explains that EMDR can be intense and draining, and emphasizes the need for a therapist to allow time for processing after each session, rather than immediately ending the appointment.Coping Skills: Discussing practical, in-the-moment coping skills like grounding (focusing on the tangible environment) to manage fear-driven anxiety cycles and developing a personal mantra to combat intrusive thoughts.The History & Stigma of EMDR: Lori recounts how EMDR was once dismissed by professors as a "fallacy" in the early 2000s and why the training is so intensive.Overcoming Barriers to Therapy: The hosts and guest discuss the hurdles of seeking help, such as embarrassment, the "manly man" complex, and the frustration of having to "shop around" to find the right therapist.If you're curious about EMDR, seeking therapy, or looking for new mental health coping skills, this episode is a must-watch!GUEST INFO Lori Riley, LCSW Blue Skies Mindfulness https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/lori-riley-evansville-in/290090TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Episode Start & Guest Intro (Lori Riley, LCSW) 03:13 - Lori's Practice: Blue Skies Mindfulness 03:34 - What is "Grounding"? 05:56 - Brian's Therapy Journey & A Therapist Crying 07:09 - Introduction to EMDR Therapy 08:30 - Building a Mental "Safe Space" 13:17 - The Container Technique & Four Square Breathing 17:35 - How EMDR was viewed 20 Years Ago (A "Fallacy") 26:42 - Official Definition of EMDR 35:20 - The Power of a Mantra/Saying to Combat Anxiety 1:05:20 - Overcoming Barriers to Seeking Therapy (Embarrassment, Manliness) #EMDR #EMDRTherapy #MentalHealth #TraumaTherapy #TheDaysGrimm #LoriRileyLCSW #SafeSpace #AnxietyRelief #CopingSkills #GroundingTechnique #Therap[The Days Grimm Podcast Links]- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheDaysGrimm- Our link tree: linktr.ee/Thedaysgrimm- GoFundMe account for The Days Grimm: https://gofund.me/02527e7c [The Days Grimm is brought to you by]Sadness & ADHD (non-medicated)

Segment 1 • Polyvagal Theory is quietly infiltrating schools just like mindfulness and meditation did. • It seeks to explains the “fight or flight” response, but only addresses our physical body. • The deeper issue? Our slavery to sin and death. Segment 2 • Polyvagal Theory blames issues on perceived “lack of safety”, but the Bible says it's sin. • It's this type of thinking that has brought about the “safe space” trend. • Real, transformative healing begins at the heart, not the nervous system. Segment 3 • A bold woman asks Megyn Kelly: “Would you go to heaven tonight?” • Megyn's unsure, yet searching and says she has been attending (a Roman Catholic) Church. • God wants you to be 100% sure — not just “hopeful.” Segment 4 • Mormon theology misunderstands baptism, family, and the afterlife. • Mormons tie heaven to family lineage — but God wants YOUR heart. • You can't afford to miss the true gospel, and the Mormons get it wrong. ___ Thanks for listening!
