Donald Trump was all set to sign a bill passed by Congress that's designed to reduce housing costs for the American people. But an angry Trump abruptly canceled the signing and blurted out a demand that Republicans pass voter suppression legislation instead. This surprised Trump's own advisers and shocked Republicans in Congress. Why? They apparently couldn't fathom that he'd so openly prioritize disenfranchising voters over helping Americans overcome their economic travails. We talked about all of it with Salon's Amanda Marcotte, author of a new piece on Trump's narcissism as the through line for many recent follies. We discuss now Trump's pathological self-regard led right to this moment, why this voter suppression effort would likely backfire on Trump if it were to pass, and what's likely to come next as Republicans seek to flatter their way out of this latest impasse.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Carol Odell joins Let's Talk Memoir for a conversation about being methodically sexually groomed as a girl during her time working at a stable, sexual grooming as a slow desensitization process,  interrupting the patterns created from unprocessed trauma, including her experience as a therapist in her pages, trying to trace our behavior and thread the story in the narrative, taking risks and doing deeper work, the divisions within ourselves, writing self back into scenes we've emotionally splintered off from, recognizing ourselves as victims, hybrid publishing through She Writes Press, turning down the volume on critical self-talk, and her new memoir Girl Groomed: A Therapist's Memoir of Trauma.   Ronit's upcoming workshop: Writing Dynamic Memoir: From Lived Experience to Gripping Story https://www.lmcmurtrylitcenter.org/workshops/writing-dynamic-memoir-from-lived-experience-to-gripping-story   Also in this episode: - vulnerability - practicing good self-care - being compassionate with ourselves   Books mentioned in this episode:  - Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls - Educated by Tara Westover - Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott - Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg Carol Odell, LICSW, grew up riding horses on the show jumping circuit in Virginia.

Headlines this week from: St Mary's in Chicago, Stanford University, the UAW Convention, Labor Notes, the Rochester Minnesota bus system, TF Green Airport, Embassy Suites Seattle, Salon 1884, and Safeway. The uprising in Bolivia reached a new pitch this week as an agreement was signed with the central union body to roll back privatizations and reforms, but simultaneously the state declared martial law against them. The Labor Notes conference was just held, and we break down some of the hot button issues and organizing lessons that were discussed by the organizers in attendance. Finally, in response to the working class victory in Minneapolis in January against ICE, the FBI this week charged 15 community defenders with a series of trumped up conspiracy charges, but the labor movement has vowed to defend them and continue the fight against ICE terror.   Join the discord: discord.gg/tDvmNzX  Follow the pod at instagram.com/workstoppage, @WorkStoppagePod on Twitter,  John @facebookvillain, and Lina @solidaritybee

Women and money is a conversation most people only have in private, if at all. Alicia Umpierre is a patent attorney with a Ph.D. in chemistry. She built her career with no family blueprint and no financial network to draw from. On Getting Rich Together, host Syama Bunten draws out the story behind the credentials. What emerges is the women and money conversation you know but rarely hear spoken out loud. Alicia grew up in Southern California not thinking about finances. No one around her had a Ph.D. She didn't even know what one was until college. Without mentors, she says she might still be testing wastewater in a lab in Ontario, California. People told her what was possible before she knew to ask. Her patent attorney career path didn't come from a plan. She followed what felt right. She left behind what didn't. A career change to law came from recognizing a dead end, not a vision. She passed the patent bar in two months, went back to school for her J.D. while raising a toddler, then had her second son during law school, and built a career most people don't even know exists. What Alicia is still working on is teaching kids about money the way she wishes she'd been taught. Her own financial goals now center on a question many women know well: how do you build wealth as a woman when you know what you have, but don't have a trusted network to help you decide what to do next? She watched her immigrant father work without rest his whole life. She doesn't want to do the same. Syama built Wealth Catalyst because women and money deserved a better conversation. If you're ready to be in the room where that conversation happens in person, the Freedom Tour salons are gathering women across 32 cities this year, and the Wealth Catalyst Summit comes to San Francisco this October.

If your salon doubled tomorrow, would it actually feel easier? Or would the same problems simply get bigger? More revenue does not fix team drama. More clients do not fix retention. More growth does not fix a salon built around one person. In this episode, Larissa Macleman is talking about the part most Salon CEOs skip before they chase the next level. Because the goal is not a bigger business that burns you out. The goal is a salon that runs as if you were there, even when you are not in the room. 3 Reasons Why Every Salon Owner Should Listen Why growth can amplify the problems you already haveThe hidden reason clients leave (and why it's putting your salon at risk) What makes a salon brand strong enough to scale to $1M.

This episode is part ten in an ongoing series about brands and how they influence our identities and drive consumerism.

Impact investing for women does not have to mean choosing between profit and purpose. Lucy Rogers built a global network connecting more than 3,000 family offices, investors, and founders by asking one simple question in every room she entered about what that person actually needed. On Getting Rich Together, host Syama Bunten sits down with Lucy to explore how that instinct became the foundation for a new model of values-based investing that is quietly outperforming expectations. Lucy's path was anything but conventional. She was expelled from two schools, dropped out of college at 17 to travel solo through Thailand, Australia, and New Zealand, and left university a second time to chase work experience instead of a degree. She bought her first flat at 24 through sheer discipline and eventually built a career spanning creative direction, entertainment, and capital. None of it followed a straight line, and that turned out to be exactly the point. The conversation gets into what family office investing looks like from the inside, how Lucy positions impact investments to skeptical investors without ever leading with the impact angle, and why the most oversubscribed deals in her network are increasingly backed by women in venture. Lucy shares the story of an investor who said he wanted nothing to do with climate, and how she got him to fund a climate company anyway. For anyone thinking seriously about impact investing for women and wealth building, this episode changes what it means to put capital behind values. The return data is catching up to the conviction. Lucy Rogers is proof that when you build from alignment, the numbers tend to follow. If this conversation sparked something, the next step is a room of your own.

What happens when a business opportunity looks perfect on paper... but your gut says no?In this episode of The Samantha Parker Show, I sit down with returning guest Kailey Graziano, founder of Kéya Salon in St. George, Utah, to talk about one of the biggest business decisions she's ever made.After nearly signing a contract to open a third salon location across town, Kailey made a surprising pivot. Through prayer, intuition, conversations with her family, and trusting her instincts, she walked away from the expansion and chose a completely different path.The result?Kéya Salon is now expanding from 6 chairs to 15 chairs, growing its team to nearly 20 stylists, creating space for future services, and exploring opportunities that may include a day spa and even purchasing the building.Kailey's story is a powerful reminder that growth isn't always about doing more. Sometimes it's about trusting yourself enough to choose a different path.If you're a salon owner, entrepreneur, business owner, hairstylist, realtor, working mom, or someone navigating a major life decision, this conversation is packed with insights you won't want to miss.

A Salon author reads his own progressive mindset into LotR and then doesn't understand why some popular right-wingers love the books so much. So, par for the course for Salon.Glance – inkl news

Let's be honest: one of the biggest challenges salon owners are hitting right now is figuring out how to actually attract, motivate, and retain the modern generation of talent. You've heard me say it many times, but if you want a team of self-motivated, hungry stylists, your brand positioning, your backend education system, and your own digital footprint have to be completely aligned. I'm sorry, but you can't fix your team until you look at how you're presenting your business to the world, and I'm diving deep into the data here to help you do it.  It doesn't matter if you're an established owner struggling to fill empty chairs, a leader trying to transition from a cozy "shadowing" model to a highly profitable, structured education system, or an entrepreneur who needs to optimize your digital footprint to fuel consistent growth behind the chair. This episode is exactly what you need to start shifting your business into its next phase of growth!  The beauty industry is changing faster than ever. What worked in 2022 or even 2024 won't cut it in 2026, so are you ready?

Let me say something that might hit close to home: you are working harder than ever, your book is full, and somehow the money still doesn't match the busy. You are not alone in this. It is actually the most common problem I see across hundreds of salon owners, and the good news is, it is fixable.But not by getting a better booking system. Not by raising your prices. Not by posting more reels. Those things have their place, but none of them alone will get you where you want to go.In this episode:Why being a fully booked, six-figure stylist does not automatically mean your salon is profitable, and what the difference actually looks likeThe ecosystem shift that changes everything: why your marketing, retention, retail, and leadership have to work together or none of it sticksWhy fixes like booking systems, price increases, and visibility pushes only create temporary relief when your salon is operating as a list of separate problemsThe real story behind one of my Monday Club clients who was slammed behind the chair, barely paying herself, and what we actually changed to turn it aroundWhat busy and profitable looks like when all three pillars, visibility, retention, and leadership, are finally working togetherWhy the door you know is not always the door you want, and the mindset shift that has to happen before any of the strategy can workIf you have been nodding along thinking "that is literally me," this one is your sign.The Monday Club: Business education, community, and tools to build a salon that runs like a real business, with leadership development, a full marketing ecosystem, and Fully Booked all under one roof.

Haare sind ein sichtbares Zeichen, mit dem religiöse Jüdinnen und Juden Zugehörigkeit und Identität ausdrücken - in jedem Lebensabschnitt. Jungen bekommen an ihrem dritten Geburtstag zum ersten Mal die Haare geschnitten; damit sind sie bereit für die religiöse Grundschule. Frauen bedecken nach der Hochzeit zum ersten Mal ihre Haare, mit einem Tuch oder auch einer Perücke, dem sogenannten Scheitel. In Köln erzählt Shira von ihrer Entscheidung für den Scheitel. Und in Fannys Perücken-Salon in Antwerpen probieren Kundinnen die neuesten Scheitel-Styles.

It's Casual Friday on The Majority Report On today's program: Elon Musk is set to become the world's first billionaire as Space X launches its initial public offer today. A More Perfect Union explains how this sketchy IPO could destroy many people's 401(K) accounts. Heather 'Digby' Parton, columnist at Salon and publisher of the Hullabaloo blog, joins to recap the week's news. Topics include the war in Iran, midterm elections and more. In the Fun Half: CNN airs a compilation showing the 39 times that Donald Trump claimed that we a deal with Iran is imminent. Trillionaires Trump is now claiming that Strait of Hormuz has been open the whole time, but we just didn't know it because it was a secret. Shhhhh don't tell the Ayatollah. Department of Energy secretary Chris Wright admits under oath that he lied when he tweeted that the U.S. had successfully escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz back in March. That kind of conflicts with Trump's claim that the strait has been open. Elissa Slotkin issues a press release stating that she believes that Michael Martin, a Trump pick for a U.S. district court, would be different from the president's other picks in that he will admit that Biden won the election in 2020 and that January 6 was an attack on the Capitol. Unfortunately for Slotkin, Martin answered those questions in the exact same fashion as all of Trump's other sycophantic nominees. Marco Rubio cites three examples of what make America so unique; our constitution, the moon landing and the UFC. We take a trip back to 2018 to watch Susan Collins on CNN promising that Bret Kavanaugh would not overturn Roe v Wade. All that and more.

Most salon owners who struggle with their team have never stopped to ask whether the problem starts with them. Salon management is one of the hardest parts of running a salon business, and most people learn it by trial and error, often at the expense of their team's morale and their own sanity. In this episode, I'm sharing five things that will make you a more effective manager and leader, starting with a distinction that changes everything.If your team feels stuck, resistant, or disengaged, this episode will help you figure out why, and what to do about it. You'll finish with a clearer picture of what good leadership in a salon actually looks like, and a few things you can start doing differently this week.IN THIS EPISODE:Why managing people and leading people are two completely different things, and why it mattersThe real reason your team might not be doing what you ask, and why that starts with youHow to delegate properly so that people build confidence, not dependencyWhy your job as a leader is not to motivate your team but to stop demotivating themThe simple habits around accessibility and attention that build trust faster than any team meetingHow to create a culture where your team starts asking "what else can we do?" instead of "that's not my job"EPISODE TIMESTAMPS[00:00] Introduction: are you actually a good salon manager? [00:30] The difference between managing people and leading people [01:17] Why your two main objectives as a leader pull in different directions [02:13] Why people need a completely different approach to processes and systems [02:41] Point one: designing a system that sets your whole team up to succeed [04:00] Point two: learning to delegate properly, and what that actually means [05:38] Why team culture problems are ultimately a leadership problem [07:19] The goal of getting your team to think more like an owner [08:32] Point three: why motivation is not what you think it is [10:28] The habits, traditions, and systems that shape team morale [11:16] Point four: being accessible when your team needs you most [12:25] Point five: the power of paying full attention in the moment [13:24] Final thoughts on building people with unlimited potentialWant MORE to help you GROW?

Annie sold a multi-million-dollar therapy center at 43. On paper, that kind of success should make a person feel safe. But money does not automatically rewrite what the body learned first. Host Syama Bunten sits down with Annie Wright, a licensed psychotherapist and executive coach specializing in trauma recovery for high achievers, for a conversation about what financial success can and cannot fix. For Annie, psychological healing and financial healing have never been separate work. Her childhood financial trauma shaped more than her beliefs about money. It shaped what safety, success, and self-worth felt like. Annie grew up between old-money privilege and real financial instability, watching money appear, disappear, and come with secrecy, shame, and survival. That early relational trauma and money mindset followed her into adulthood, even as she became the first in her family to build the kind of security she once imagined from a distance. This is a conversation about breaking the poverty cycle, first generation wealth building, and the emotional cost of becoming the person no one in your family knew how to model. Annie is honest about ambition as a survival strategy, the nervous system that still braces for everything to disappear, and why the numbers on paper do not always match the feeling of safety inside. Now, her work sits at the intersection of women and financial healing, with books, courses, and education designed to help more women move from survival into lives that feel secure, self-directed, and fully lived. Her 2026 book Decade of Decisions is part of that next chapter. If Annie's story speaks to you, keep going.

Register with this link: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/L40tjKhOSCGCJTR-R-QJvwThe title of Robin Andersen's upcoming book (published next week) is The Complicit Lens: US Media Coverage of the Genocide in Gaza. You can see why Steve wanted to talk with her. Their conversation looks at how the corporate media helped manufacture consent for Israel's war on Gaza by erasing historical context. It is tasked with enforcing cultural hegemony à la Gramsci, and defending the interests of the imperial core.Robin goes into examples of how the media has been used to erase Palestinian history and justify war crimes. Terms like "occupation," "apartheid," and "genocide" are scrubbed from discourse to maintain ideological control. It allows the ongoing dispossession and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians to go unchallenged.As MMTers we understand – and Steve emphasizes – how state resources are mobilized without hesitation for war and geopolitical control, while austerity is imposed at home as a political choice rather than an economic necessity.In this time where journalists are under attack (literally) the episode urges solidarity with truth-tellers like Francesca Albanese who confront imperialist violence.Robin Andersen is professor emerita of media studies at Fordham University and an award-winning author of a dozen single- and co-authored books.

Au sommaire de ce supplément, nous ouvrons avec la situation au Proche-Orient. Chaque jour, Israël poursuit son offensive meurtrière au Liban. Le chaos règne, les négociations ne donnent pas grand-chose, et côté israélien, les plus ultras entretiennent la mécanique guerrière... 2è partie : les agriculteurs ne sont pas contents globalement en France, cours trop bas, polémique sur l'utilisation d'engrais et de pesticides et la sécheresse qui s'aggrave. Comment maintenir l'irrigation malgré tout? Dans le nord d'Israël : une trêve qui n'en est pas une  Quelques jours après le début de l'offensive israélo-américaine en Iran, le Hezbollah libanais se jette, le 2 mars 2026, dans le conflit et attaque Israël. La riposte sera très meurtrière : plus de 3 000 morts au Liban, un million de déplacés. Sur le papier, depuis le 17 avril, il y a un cessez-le-feu, mais sur le terrain, il n'en est rien... Les frappes israéliennes massives sur le Liban se poursuivent et le Hezbollah continue d'attaquer. RFI vous conduit aujourd'hui dans le nord d'Israël. Ils s'appellent Ori, Yuval ou Ella... Après 3 mois de bombardements, ils sont à bout de nerfs.  RFI a consacré, le 3 juin 2026, une journée spéciale au Liban présentée de Beyrouth, le Liban qui a recensé plus de 3 000 morts et plus d'un million de déplacés depuis le 2 mars dernier. Un Grand reportage de Frédérique Misslin qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix.   Agriculture : dans le sud de la France, le grand défi du partage de l'eau À l'heure du Salon international de l'agriculture à Paris, la colère paysanne gronde toujours en France. Normes contraignantes, concurrence exacerbée par l'accord UE / Mercosur, gestion de l'épidémie bovine… et il faut ajouter à cela la sécheresse. À cause du réchauffement climatique, de plus en plus d'agriculteurs manquent d'eau et la question du partage de la ressource est devenue épineuse. Illustration dans le sud de la France, dans la région de Perpignan. L'été dernier (2025) : fleuves à sec, cultures desséchées… squelettes d'abricotiers et de vignes arrachés. En perspective pour résoudre le problème : un tuyau de 10 km pour dériver une partie d'un cours d'eau afin de sécuriser l'irrigation. Mais ce projet ne fait pas l'unanimité, y compris chez les agriculteurs… Un Grand reportage de Laura Salabert qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix.

In this episode we interview Dr. Warren Throckmorton about his book; "The Christian Past that Wasn't; Debunking the Christian Nationalist Myths that Hijack History." We often hear the narrative that America is a Christian Nation and that the Constitution has divine origins. Dr. Throckmorton's book corrects this narrative with the actual accounts of the Constitutional Convention and its aftermath. Dr. Warren Throckmorton  is an author and speaker specializing in psychology and history. Now retired, he worked as a psychology professor at a Christian college and produced, wrote, and hosted the critically acclaimed podcast series Telling Jefferson Lies. His writing has appeared in Salon, Huffington Post, The Daily Beast, Christianity Today, and Religion Dispatches, among others, and he has appeared on CNN, NPR, the Holy Post podcast, and more. Throckmorton is the coauthor with Michael Coulter of Getting Jefferson Right: Fact-Checking Claims About Thomas Jefferson.Support the show

Guest Ronan Perceval began his journey in the beaty industry as a receptionist at a busy salon in Dublin, Ireland. While he loved the salon culture and people, he found that constant "admin-y conversations" -- like explaining the parking situation or cancellation policy -- were sapping taking time away from more meaningful client interactions. Now founder & CEO of Phorest Salon Software, Ronan designs AI tools that handle the admin, so service providers can focus on what we do best -- making our guests look and feel great.  Phorest AI handles admin like booking, consultation forms and self check-in, but now there's so much more. Stylists can use mobile apps to track their tickets, tips and progress toward earling goals, with gamification features. Phorest even integrates with Instagram to help you micro-target ads to the perfect clients in your area.

Melisa Febos joins Let's Talk Memoir for a conversation about romantic obsessions, celibacy as a portal to freedom, living her way into a corner and having to fight her way out, leading with scene and story and plot, taking back the sovereignty of her own mind and body, approaching oneself as a protagonist, leaving out what isn't central to the story, remembering memoir is not a transcription of a time lived, radical feminists, exercising agency and self-reclamation, living an examined life, integrating memories that were indigestible to us in the moment, the project of looking at ourselves honestly, and her most recent book, now in paperback The Dry Season: A Memoir of Pleasure in a Year Without Sex.

What if your money could fund the future you actually want to live in? That is the question Alix Lebec has spent her career trying to answer. On Getting Rich Together, host Syama Bunten sits down with Alix, founder of Lebec, a firm built to mainstream innovative finance and put more capital to work on some of the world's biggest problems. Alix grew up between France, South Korea, and China before finishing high school in Dallas, Texas. That global upbringing shaped everything about how she sees money, risk, and opportunity. She built her career inside global development, philanthropy, and asset management before launching Lebec during the height of the pandemic to bridge the gap between traditional finance and meaningful change. The conversation gets into the real mechanics of innovative finance strategies, including how blended finance can turn $1 million in philanthropy into $50 million in private investment capital that would otherwise sit on the sidelines. Alix breaks down why women in impact investing are not choosing between returns and values, and why that false choice has kept too many people out of the room for too long. Lebec operates across three pillars. The first is strategic advisory. The second is a boutique investment manager that builds diversified portfolios of private market funds across sectors like water, oceans, and deforestation. The third is narrative change through commercial film and storytelling, where innovative finance structures put capital directly in the hands of social entrepreneurs. Alix is also raising a $1 million seed round to scale the vision. This episode is for any woman who has ever wondered whether her money can do more. Impact investing for women is no longer a niche conversation. It is becoming one of the most important conversations in finance.
