Podcasts about screenings

Concordia St. Paul head coach Matt Fletcher joins Slappin' Glass to detail the guard-to-guard screening system his staff built around a roster of multiple point guards and an undersized five. Fletcher explains how “bump, tap, hit” gives screeners three answers—screen-and-roll, ghost, or hit-and-pop—while creating an empty side and forcing the defense into switch-or-stay decisions.The conversation moves into the teaching behind the system: charting each player's screening mix, entering the first action within three seconds, and adjusting traditional deep-corner running to improve timing. Fletcher also separates playing fast from shooting fast through zero-second decisions and green, yellow, and red shots. He lays out their cutting progression from memorized responsibilities to personnel-based reads, including why two feet trigger the cut, how the helper's chest cues movement around Barkley actions, and why late cuts are usually safer than early ones. The discussion also covers second drives, skip passes, and using the dunker spot to organize relocation.In Start, Sub, or Sit, Fletcher weighs transition defense, defensive rebounding, and defensive aggression when playing with pace, then explains why Concordia St. Paul crashes four or five and adapts pressure and ball-screen coverage to its personnel. He closes with staff alignment, developing young assistants like players, rebuilding a program around local recruiting and continuity, and the investment outside basketball that keeps coaching in perspective.What You'll Learn How “bump, tap, hit” gives guard-to-guard screeners three different answers from the same entry.  Why Fletcher charts each player's screening mix instead of allowing a shooter to ghost every time.  How Concordia St. Paul adjusted its corner-running rules to enter the first action within three seconds.  Where zero-second decisions fit within a green, yellow, and red shot-selection system.  Why cutting responsibilities are memorized before players begin making more personnel-based reads.  How the driver reaching two feet and the helper showing their chest trigger movement off the ball.  Why the ballhandler's scoring tendencies change cutting timing around Barkley actions.  How a defense sitting on the cut can expose the skip pass and second drive.  Why crashing four or five can create extra possessions while limiting an opponent's transition opportunities.  How Fletcher progressively expands the responsibilities of young assistants as their comfort and experience grow.To join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 70 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

In this episode, Prof Chapman unpacks extended carrier screening, the test that helps prevent some of the rarest and most serious childhood diseases before a baby is even conceived. He explains how we all carry genetic mutations without knowing it, in fact 98% of us do, and why they only become a problem when both partners happen to share the same one. Prof Chapman walks through the three most common conditions worth testing for, cystic fibrosis, spinal muscular atrophy and fragile X, and shares the good news that Australia now funds this screening through Medicare, along with the IVF needed to avoid passing these conditions on. It’s a warm, clear guide to a topic that sounds daunting but offers real peace of mind for anyone planning a pregnancy.

The government announced on September 1st that cervical screening will become free to all women from March 1st, 2027. While there has been some dispute between National and Labour as to who the credit for this policy should be attributed to, it is a positive step towards making screening for one of the most preventable types of cancer for people with a cervix more accessible. Producer Eloise spoke with Associate Professor Michelle Wise from the University of Auckland's Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences about the potential impact of this policy and what people should know about cervical cancer.

A Navy captain with 24 years of service went to medical for exhaustion, weight gain, and low mood, and was told to see a therapist and eat less. When he asked for a testosterone test his physician asked whether he had erectile dysfunction, and refused to order it when he said no. His level came back at 160; the cutoff we use in this country is 300. I've treated this population for 15 years, and roughly 27% of operators test below that number. Tim Parlatore is the attorney who wrote the Pentagon memo that now puts testosterone on the annual physical, and we get into what it says and why most men never have this hormone checked again after they leave pediatrics.Studies & ReferencesCardiovascular Safety of Testosterone-Replacement Therapy - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37326322/You Can Conquer Trauma and PTSD with Chris Frueh, PhD - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0olunOZM2lcSupport Kaczkowski Family's GoFundMe campaignhttps://impact.navysealfoundation.org/campaign/827807/donate?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bioWant ad-free episodes?

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls:  Blunt cerebrovascular injury (BCVI) BCVI is a traumatic injury to the carotid or vertebral arteries Patients may initially have no neurologic symptoms In some cases, a thrombus can form at the site of the injury and later cause ischemic stroke, sometimes hours after the original trauma CT angiography (CTA) of the neck is a useful screening tool for BCVI HIstorically, CTA was reserved for patients with high-risk mechanisms or neurologic symptoms CTA screening has expanded as understanding of BCVIs and their prevention progresses The Denver criteria were developed to identify patients with increased risk for BCVI High-risk findings include cervical spine injuries and severe facial or skull-base fractures Screening practices still vary between trauma centers, though expansion of proactive CTA is an increasingly common practice   References Kim DY, et al.

When feeding therapy stalls, it is rarely because a clinician lacks exercises - it is usually because intervention began before the child's foundational systems were fully understood. Trying to fix oral-motor mechanics without addressing postural stability, airway integrity, or sensory overload is like building a house on sand.In this episode, Hallie Bulkin shares a structured, child-centered framework for pediatric feeding therapy that moves clinicians away from reactive "symptom chasing" and toward deep clinical reasoning. She breaks down the critical distinction between preliminary screening and comprehensive assessment, explaining how to connect isolated clinical observations into actionable patterns.Hallie highlights why posture, breathing, and nervous system regulation must be evaluated before asking the mouth to perform. She also discusses how to prioritize barriers based on the whole child, collaborate effectively with medical providers, and implement proactive strategies that build lasting trust with families.Key Topics & TakeawaysFoundation Over Function: Why postural alignment, airway patency, and sensory processing must be stabilized before targeting oral-motor skill development.Pattern Recognition vs. Symptom Chasing: How to connect individual clinical observations into cohesive patterns that reveal the true root cause of feeding difficulties.Screening vs. Comprehensive Assessment: Understanding where screening ends and formal diagnostic assessment begins to avoid premature intervention plans.Proactive vs. Reactive Therapy: Shifting from session-by-session troubleshooting to a clear, milestone-driven roadmap.Interdisciplinary Medical Collaboration: How and when to bring in medical partners (ENTs, GI, bodyworkers, dentists) to address systemic barriers to progress.Soundbites"Feeding does not happen in a silo - it requires the synchronized support of posture, airway, sensory, and nervous system regulation.""Assess the child's foundation before asking the mouth to perform. If the body is fighting for balance or air, feeding will always be secondary.""Symptoms are information, not the starting point.

A federal appeals court ruling has highlighted a growing legal challenge: U.S. laws governing illegal exploitative images were largely written before modern AI could generate highly realistic synthetic images. The judge said existing Supreme Court precedents may no longer fit the technological reality created by generative AI and suggested the Supreme Court should revisit those decisions. In an unusual marketing twist, Chris Hansen, the former host of To Catch a Predator, has purchased theater advertising that will run before every screening of A24's upcoming film Primetime, which stars Robert Pattinson as Hansen himself.

In episode 387 of The Physical Performance Show, host Tim Studley picks up part two of his conversation with fellow Pogo Physio physiotherapist Lewis Craig, continuing last week's deep dive into surf life saving and Ironman racing. This episode shifts focus from injury patterns to managing niggles, optimising performance, and the habits that separate top-tier surf ironman athletes from the rest. Tim and Lewis discuss the collaborative decision-making involved in managing a recurring niggle, the key training and screening recommendations every surf life saving athlete should have in place, the lessons Lewis has learned working with elite athletes in the sport, and his top tips for improving performance — from sand-specific training to fuelling properly for a demanding training load.

When does the "baby blues" become postpartum depression? What separates an intrusive thought from an intention to cause harm? And what does postpartum psychosis actually look like? In this episode of Confessions of a Male Gynecologist, Dr. Shawn Tassone sits down with psychiatrist Dr. Kristin Lasseter for an important conversation about the mental health conditions women can experience during pregnancy, postpartum, and throughout their reproductive lives. They break down the differences between postpartum blues, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and postpartum psychosis — including why these conditions can sometimes be misunderstood, overlooked, or misdiagnosed. Dr. Lasseter explains the relationship between postpartum psychosis and bipolar disorder, why a person experiencing psychosis may still have periods of lucidity, and why intrusive thoughts, although frightening, are not the same thing as wanting to act on those thoughts. The conversation also tackles one of the most complicated parts of psychiatric care: medication. Dr. Tassone and Dr. Lasseter discuss psychiatric medication management, polypharmacy, changing diagnoses, and the importance of understanding the complete clinical picture instead of treating individual symptoms in isolation. But postpartum mental health is only part of the discussion. Dr. Lasseter also shares how the field of reproductive psychiatry has evolved, why there still aren't enough specialists to meet the demand, and why mental health screening should be a more routine part of women's healthcare — not something addressed only after a woman reaches a crisis. They also explore the difference between psychiatrists and psychologists, the role of therapy alongside medication, the connection between mental health and libido, and the stigma that still prevents many women—especially during pregnancy and postpartum — from admitting that they are struggling. Women are routinely monitored physically throughout pregnancy and after delivery. This episode asks an equally important question: Are we paying enough attention to what is happening mentally and emotionally? In This Episode, Dr. Tassone and Dr. Lasseter discuss: The difference between baby blues, postpartum depression, and postpartum psychosis Why postpartum mental health disorders can be difficult to recognize Whether current diagnostic definitions adequately reflect the postpartum experience How bipolar disorder can intersect with postpartum psychosis What intrusive thoughts actually mean and why they should not automatically be confused with intent Why someone experiencing psychosis may still appear completely lucid at times Psychiatric medications during the reproductive and postpartum periods How polypharmacy can complicate symptoms, diagnoses, and treatment Why communication between patients and psychiatrists matters The growing field of reproductive psychiatry and why access still falls short How women are typically referred for reproductive mental health care The difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist Why psychiatrists may use both medication and psychotherapy How women's mental healthcare has changed over the past several decades The connection between mental health, sexual health, and libido Why better mental health screening is needed during reproductive transitions The stigma that still keeps pregnant and postpartum women from asking for help Key Takeaways Postpartum mental health exists on a spectrum. Temporary emotional changes after delivery are common, but persistent or worsening symptoms deserve evaluation rather than being dismissed as part of becoming a mother. Postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis are not the same condition. Understanding the distinction matters because the symptoms, risks, and level of intervention can be dramatically different. Intrusive thoughts do not automatically equal intent. Unwanted, disturbing thoughts can occur in postpartum mental health disorders and can be terrifying for the person experiencing them. The clinical context matters. Postpartum psychosis can be associated with bipolar disorder. A woman's psychiatric history, symptoms, sleep, behavior, and changes over time can all be important pieces of the diagnostic picture. Psychosis does not always look the way people imagine it does. Someone experiencing severe psychiatric symptoms may still have periods where they appear lucid, organized, or completely like themselves. Medication management requires context. Adding medication after medication without continually reassessing the diagnosis and full clinical picture can make psychiatric care more complicated. Reproductive psychiatry remains an underserved field. Interest and training have grown, but access to clinicians specifically trained in women's reproductive mental health still does not meet the need. Mental healthcare should be part of reproductive healthcare. Pregnancy, postpartum, fertility changes, PMDD, perimenopause, menopause, sexual health, and libido can all intersect with mental wellbeing. Screening needs to happen before a crisis. Mental health should be discussed routinely throughout reproductive transitions instead of waiting until symptoms become severe enough that a woman is forced to ask for help. Stigma still keeps women silent. Fear of judgment—particularly during pregnancy and postpartum—can prevent women from admitting what they are experiencing and seeking appropriate care. Postpartum mental health deserves the same seriousness, attention, and follow-up we give physical recovery after pregnancy. Whether the issue is depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, psychosis, medication, libido, or simply feeling unlike yourself, women should not have to reach a breaking point before someone starts asking the right questions. A note from Dr. Lasseter I'm Dr. Kristin Lasseter, a board-certified psychiatrist and the founder of Reproductive Psychiatry & Counseling (RPC). Since starting RPC in 2018, it has grown to be a practice devoted to expert, compassionate care for individuals navigating mental health concerns across the reproductive lifespan—including pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, pregnancy loss, premenstrual mood disorders, and perimenopause. My interest in reproductive mental health began in college, when I took a course in reproductive endocrinology and became fascinated by the powerful influence of sex hormones on both physical and mental well-being. That curiosity—paired with my love of medicine and commitment to improving mental health care—led me to the field of reproductive psychiatry. When I moved to Austin in 2014, I was surprised and disheartened to find a lack of local services for patients experiencing hormone-related psychiatric symptoms. That gap inspired me to build RPC—now one of the leading reproductive psychiatry clinics in Texas. Since founding RPC, I've been committed to increasing access, awareness, and education around reproductive mental health through clinical care, professional training, and community advocacy. My clinical work focuses on helping patients find clarity, relief, and confidence through personalized, evidence-based care. Whether you're navigating perinatal anxiety, postpartum depression, PMDD, pregnancy loss, or medication decisions during pregnancy or lactation, I take time to understand your values, your goals, and your story. My approach is collaborative and nonjudgmental—centered on helping you make informed decisions that feel right for you. I believe the mental health needs of women and birthing people—especially during reproductive transitions—have been historically overlooked. At RPC, we're working to change that. ‍Please help break the stigma: Share a resource, start a conversation, and join us in raising awareness about maternal and reproductive mental health.

In this episode, Dr. Mike Hart sits down with Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy for a wide-ranging conversation on cancer prevention and the factors she believes influence long-term health. Dr. Connealy shares her perspective on why cancer should be approached as a whole-body problem, exploring the roles of nutrition, metabolic health, environmental toxins, sleep, stress, hormones, and mitochondrial function. They also discuss fasting and ketogenic diets, cancer screening, GLP-1 medications, aspirin, peptides, medicinal mushrooms, IV vitamin C, and other integrative approaches, along with Dr. Connealy's concerns about conventional screening and treatment practices. Throughout the conversation, she emphasizes individualized care and looking beyond a diagnosis to understand the broader conditions affecting each patient.   Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy is a medical doctor with four decades of experience who takes a prevention-focused, whole-person approach to health, longevity, and complex chronic disease. Her work spans human optimization through advanced conditions including cancer, dementia, autoimmune disease, and Parkinson's, with an emphasis on identifying and addressing factors that may interfere with the body's ability to function optimally. Her approach was shaped in part by her own health journey after learning that she had been exposed before birth to DES (diethylstilbestrol), which led her to undergo ongoing evaluations at MD Anderson and explore medicine beyond conventional symptom-based care. Over her career, she has incorporated individualized laboratory assessment, natural hormones, nutrition, peptides, and other integrative strategies while emphasizing what she describes as "creating health" rather than simply treating a diagnosis.    [The Cancer Revolution] — Leigh Erin Connealy, MD / Hachette Book Group https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/leigh-erin-connealy/the-cancer-revolution/9780306836688/ [Be Perfectly Healthy] — Leigh Erin Connealy, MD / Perfectly Healthy https://perfectlyhealthy.com/products/be-perfectly-healthy-1 [Celluverse Podcast] — Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy, Alannah Connealy & Jess Donovan https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/celluverse/id1836455844 [Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy Instagram — @connealymd] — Leigh Erin Connealy, MD https://www.instagram.com/connealymd/ [Cologuard Plus] — Exact Sciences Corporation https://www.cologuard.com/resources [QTI Breast Acoustic CT Scanner] — QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. https://www.qtimaging.com/breast-acoustic-ct-scanner/ [UT MD Anderson Cancer Center] — The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center https://www.mdanderson.org/ [Eminence Organic Skin Care — Sun Care] — Eminence Organic Skin Care https://eminenceorganics.com/us/face/sun-care [Primally Pure Sunscreen] — Primally Pure https://primallypure.com/pages/sunscreen [COOLA Sunscreen] — COOLA https://coola.com/collections/sunscreen   Show Notes 00:00 Welcome to the Hart2Heart Podcast 01:07 Root Cause Medicine 02:29 Is Cancer Preventable 05:42 Biggest Risk Factors 09:51 Toxins And Detox Testing 12:26 Sweating And Detox Baths 00:00 Doctors Not Listening 16:58 Does Sugar Feed Cancer 22:37 Fasting And Keto Strategies 26:05 Mushrooms And Supplements 27:21 Thiamine And Nutrient Gaps 29:35 Hormones And Cancer Risk 35:42 Complete Hormone Panels 38:02 GLP-1s and Cancer Risk 39:18 Daily Aspirin Debate 41:12 Peptides to Avoid 43:20 Russian Peptides Cycling 45:43 Non Toxic Sunscreen Choices 47:14 Deodorants and Aluminum 48:18 AirPods and Brain Health 50:26 Cancer Screening Strategy 54:30 Breast Imaging Options 56:05 Biopsy Spread Concerns 58:09 Why Medicine Misses Prevention 01:01:55 Personal DES Cancer Journey 01:03:10 IV Vitamin C for Cancer 01:04:26 Where to Follow and Book   The Hart2Heart podcast is hosted by family physician Dr. Michael Hart, who is dedicated to cutting through the noise and uncovering the most effective strategies for optimizing health, longevity, and peak performance.

Can preterm birth be prevented? Historically the answer has been no, and the numbers back that up. In 2006 the U.S. preterm birth rate was about 12 percent. In 2024 it was 10.4 percent. Medicine has gotten dramatically better at keeping premature babies alive, but almost no better at keeping pregnancies from ending early. In this episode, Kristin and Dr. Abdelhak make the case that the answer is yes, preterm birth can be prevented far more often than it is now, and that the field has been looking in the wrong place. Preterm birth is not one condition. It is a grab bag: placental abruption, systemic infection like appendicitis or pyelonephritis, uterine overdistension from twins, triplets, or polyhydramnios, trauma, severe hypertension, stimulant and cocaine use. Every one of those causes announces itself. The woman with triplets is obviously carrying triplets. The woman with an abruption is bleeding and in pain. So what about the woman with none of that, doing everything right, who shows up at 30 weeks contracting and three centimeters dilated? For forty years the answer was "subclinical infection," a diagnosis Dr. Abdelhak takes apart in this episode. If it is subclinical, why is preterm labor the only clinical thing it ever does? Why does an appendicitis start with pain and fever and end in labor, while this mystery infection skips straight to the last step? And after four decades of amniocentesis studies cataloguing cytokines, interleukins, and prostaglandins, where is the treatment? There isn't one, because researchers found exactly what they went looking for. His answer is mechanical, not microbial. The cervix is a timekeeper on the pregnancy. Conventional teaching says contractions open the cervix. He argues it runs the other way: the cervix quietly gives way over weeks, and when it opens far enough, labor starts. That is why he says he is almost never surprised by a preterm labor. He was already watching the cervix shorten. Also covered: why previous preterm birth is the single strongest risk factor (it is the same cervix), why cone biopsy raises risk more than LEEP does, what funneling on ultrasound actually tells you, the difference between classic cervical insufficiency and the milder version that still lets you reach the third trimester, and why a three-hour precipitous labor at 38 weeks may be the same finding wearing a friendlier face. The practical takeaway: serial cervical length measurement for anyone with a red flag, first-time moms included, and cerclage when the cervix starts to open. Screening plus treatment, not a pill for an infection nobody can find. Plus: why the president and Taylor Swift would get their cervix measured every single week, and what that tells you about the standard of care the rest of us are offered. Topics covered, in order Why this topic is worth repeating, and why the framing here is not the conventional one The better question: preventing preterm birth, not preterm labor Fifty years, the March of Dimes, and a rate that has barely moved What we did get better at: neonatal survival and outcomes, not prevention Preterm birth as a grab bag, not a single disease Placental abruption Systemic infection: appendicitis, pyelonephritis, sepsis, severe pneumonia, COVID The subclinical infection theory, and the case against it Why the amniocentesis and cytokine studies found what they set out to find Uterine overdistension: twins, triplets, polyhydramnios Trauma, decidual hemorrhage Severe hypertension, pulsatile flow, and abruption risk before 20 weeks Cocaine, methamphetamine, smoking The patient nobody can explain, and what is actually going on The core claim: dilation causes the contractions, not the other way around Why Dr. Abdelhak is rarely surprised by a preterm labor Mild cervical insufficiency, and "dreamlike" cervical insufficiency at 38 weeks Why previous preterm birth is the number one risk factor LEEP versus cone biopsy, and why cone matters more Normal variation in cervical length, and the big nose analogy Length is not everything: bulk, thickness, and how the cervix feels Funneling on ultrasound as a warning sign The proposal: serial cervical length screening plus cerclage Why the numbers are U.S. numbers, and why international rates are not trustworthy The VIP standard of care, and who actually gets weekly scans Key takeaways Preterm birth is not one condition. Abruption, systemic infection, overdistension, trauma, and severe hypertension each have their own mechanism, and each is usually obvious on arrival. "Subclinical infection" is not a diagnosis, it is a placeholder. Forty years in, it has produced no treatment and no measurable drop in the preterm birth rate. The cervix is the timekeeper. When it is weak, it opens slowly over weeks, and labor follows the opening rather than causing it. Previous preterm birth predicts the next one because it is the same cervix. You cannot order a new one. Cone biopsy raises preterm birth risk more than LEEP, because more cervix is removed. Length is a clue, not a verdict. Plenty of women have naturally short cervixes and carry to term. Funneling, bulk, and change over time matter as much as a single number. The intervention that would move the needle already exists. Serial cervical length measurement in anyone with a risk factor, and cerclage when it starts to open. Screening and treatment, not a mystery pill. Terms mentioned Placental abruption — the placenta separating from the uterine wall before delivery. Pyelonephritis — kidney infection. Polyhydramnios — too much amniotic fluid. Uterine overdistension — the uterus stretched beyond its comfortable capacity, as with twins or triplets. Cervical insufficiency — a cervix that opens without labor. Funneling — the cervix opening from the inside out, visible on ultrasound before any external change. Cerclage — a stitch placed to reinforce the cervix. LEEP and cone biopsy — procedures removing cervical tissue after abnormal Pap or HPV findings. Precipitous labor — a very fast labor, often under three hours. Memorable quotes: "I am telling you what happened was the three centimeters dilated caused the contractions." "If it's subclinical, why doesn't it stay that way?" "The cervix is a mechanical timekeeper on the pregnancy." Got something you want to share or ask? Keep it coming. We love hearing from you.

In this episode, Jackie Sanders and Andrew Johnston sit down with dental hygienist Andrew Lee to discuss the growing role dental hygienists can play in identifying potential airway and sleep concerns. Andrew shares how his more than 20 years in clinical practice led him to look beyond the traditional hygiene appointment and explore how dental professionals can better recognize signs such as bruxism, tooth wear, tongue scalloping, and other indicators that may warrant further airway assessment. The conversation also examines one of the biggest challenges in airway care: what happens after a potential problem is identified. Andrew discusses the gaps that can occur when patients are referred outside the dental practice for sleep testing and how more integrated workflows could better connect dentistry and medicine. He also explains why hygienists are well positioned to champion airway screening in their practices and encourages them to view comprehensive assessment as an extension of the preventive care they already provide.

In this episode, Prof Chapman tackles a question many patients wonder about but rarely ask: should depression and anxiety screening be standard before starting IVF? His answer is a firm no, and he explains why, drawing on the history of mandatory counselling in Victoria that was eventually abandoned because 95% of patients simply didn’t need it. But that doesn’t mean the emotional side gets brushed aside. Prof Chapman walks through the psychological build up of a cycle, from the hope of a strong egg collection to the gut punch of a negative test, and why supporting patients through that drop is such a vital part of the job. It’s an honest look at the real mental toll of IVF, and a reminder that for most people, resilience, not a screening form, is what carries them through.

ESG investing promises to align your portfolio with your values. But an important question remains: Whose values are shaping the standards? Environmental, social, and governance ratings are often presented as measures of corporate responsibility. Yet the assumptions behind those ratings may not always align with biblical convictions. Nick Schmitz, Professor of Finance at The Catholic University of America and a Board Member of the Christian Investing Council (CIC), joined the show today to explain the differences between ESG and faith-based investing—and why Christians should pay attention not only to what they own, but also to how their shares are voted. ESG and Faith-Based Investing Start in Different Places ESG stands for environmental, social, and governance. ESG ratings attempt to evaluate companies based on their performance in each of those areas. But Schmitz points out that ESG standards are developed by secular ratings agencies and can shift with cultural and political trends. Faith-based investing starts somewhere different: with convictions rooted in biblical truth. That distinction matters because a company may receive strong ESG ratings while supporting practices that conflict with a Christian investor's beliefs about issues such as the sanctity of human life, religious liberty, family, or human dignity. There may certainly be areas of overlap. Christians care about justice, responsible stewardship, fair treatment of employees, and care for creation. But agreement on certain issues does not mean the underlying moral frameworks are the same. Faith-based investing asks a deeper question: Does the way this company operates—and the way my ownership stake is used—reflect the convictions I am seeking to live by? Your Shares Come With a Voice One area investors may overlook is proxy voting. Owning shares in a publicly traded company generally gives investors the opportunity to vote on certain corporate matters. But individual investors rarely cast those votes themselves. Instead, asset managers often rely on large proxy advisory firms to provide recommendations or process votes on their behalf. That means Christians may unknowingly own investments whose shares are being voted in ways that conflict with their beliefs. Schmitz offered an example involving shareholder proposals related to Google and crisis pregnancy centers. Some proposals sought changes in how those organizations appeared in search results and were characterized positively within ESG-oriented frameworks. Faith-based investors, however, could reach a very different conclusion because of their convictions regarding the unborn and the work of pro-life ministries. For Christian investors, then, screening a portfolio may be only part of the stewardship equation. How shares are voted can matter too. Moving Beyond Passive Ownership Schmitz has been involved in developing proxy-voting policies designed to better reflect Catholic investment principles. The effort grew from concern that existing guidelines did not always reflect the convictions they claimed to represent. The broader lesson applies to Christian investors of many traditions: we do not necessarily have to outsource our influence without asking questions. Faith-based investing can involve both screening and engagement. Screening considers whether a company's products, services, or practices conflict with an investor's convictions. Engagement asks whether shareholders can encourage companies toward practices that better promote human flourishing. That makes faith-based investing more than a list of companies or industries to avoid. Shareholders can also use their ownership to advocate for positive change. Christians Can Care About Creation Without Agreeing on Every Policy The “E” in ESG stands for environmental, which sometimes creates the impression that faith-based investors give little attention to environmental stewardship. Schmitz argues that this does not have to be the case. Christians may disagree about exactly how environmental concerns should be addressed, but waste, pollution, and responsible care for creation are legitimate stewardship concerns. Investors can support companies working to reduce genuine environmental harm while also considering the economic consequences of particular policies, especially for workers and lower-income communities. The difference is that Christians can recognize room for prudential disagreement. Biblical stewardship gives us principles to guide our thinking, but believers may reach different conclusions about the best policies or business practices to address a particular environmental concern. That calls for humility, wisdom, and careful discernment rather than assuming every issue has a one-size-fits-all solution. Look for Managers With “Skin in the Game” Schmitz also encouraged investors to consider whether the people managing their money have what author Nassim Nicholas Taleb famously called “skin in the game.” When Schmitz worked as a fund manager, for example, he invested his own capital alongside the investors whose money he managed. That kind of alignment can matter. A manager who shares both the potential rewards and the downside risk has an added incentive to exercise discipline and think long-term. For Christian investors, alignment can go even deeper. Do the people managing your investments understand your convictions? Do their investment policies reflect them? Are they transparent about how companies are screened, how proxies are voted, and how shareholder engagement is conducted? Christian investors should not assume that an investment is biblically aligned simply because it carries a faith-related label. Transparency matters. Common Misconceptions About Faith-Based Investing Schmitz highlighted several misconceptions investors should reconsider. First, ESG is not morally neutral. Like every investment framework, it rests on assumptions about what is good, responsible, and worth promoting. Second, faith-based investing is not merely negative screening. Christian investors can encourage good corporate behavior through shareholder engagement, proxy voting, and collaboration with other investors. Third, bringing Christian convictions into investing is not an inappropriate intrusion of faith into an otherwise neutral marketplace. Every investor brings values into financial decisions in some form. Christians should not feel compelled to leave deeply held beliefs outside the investment process. Finally, individual investors are not necessarily powerless. Shareholders can work together, support resolutions, engage company leadership, and influence how large asset managers vote. The question is whether Christians will use that influence intentionally. Questions to Ask About Your Investments If you want to know whether your investments reflect your convictions, start by asking questions. If you work with a financial advisor or investment manager, ask how your investments are screened and how proxy votes are handled. If most of your retirement savings are held through an employer-sponsored plan, ask your plan provider what proxy-voting policies apply to the funds you own. You can also examine Christian mutual funds and exchange-traded funds that publicly disclose their screening standards, voting policies, and shareholder-engagement practices. The goal is not perfection. Investing in a complex economy will always require wisdom and discernment. But greater transparency can help investors make more informed stewardship decisions. Keep Your Investment Horizon Eternal Schmitz closed with advice he regularly shares with young people entering finance: Character matters more than credentials. Work ethic, courage, and integrity can open doors over the course of a career, but ambition must remain submitted to something greater than personal achievement. For the Christian, that means keeping Christ at the center. Financial markets reward investors who are willing to think beyond the next quarter or the next headline. Christians have an even longer horizon. We make financial decisions knowing that earthly returns are temporary and faithfulness to Christ has eternal significance. That perspective changes the way we think about investing. We are not merely asking, “What return can this investment produce?” We are also asking, “What am I supporting with the resources God has entrusted to me?” Faith-based investing is ultimately another opportunity to practice faithful stewardship—seeking to align our financial decisions with our convictions while remembering that our ultimate treasure is not found in any portfolio, but in Christ.

In this episode of Dismantling You, I sit down with Jordana Graifman, a genetic counselor at Orchid, to talk about the genetic information most fertility patients are never offered before their next transfer. Jordana walks us through what a genetic counselor actually does, when you might meet one on your reproductive journey, and why so many people leave clinic asking the same painful question: could anyone have told me this sooner? We explore carrier screening, the difference between standard embryo testing and whole genome embryo screening, and why being healthy yourself does not tell the full story about the risks you can pass on to your children.We also dig into the emotional side of this work, the miscarriages, failed transfers, and quiet losses that so many women carry without a place to talk about them. Jordana shares how she counsels patients who are hopeful but terrified, how she responds to fears about designer babies, and what she wishes every hopeful parent understood about family building. Her core message is simple and powerful: see a genetic counselor earlier than you think you should, because the sooner you have the information, the more freedom you have to make decisions that are truly your own. This is a conversation about science, compassion, and deeply personal choices.

In this episode, Miller Johnson employment attorneys Rebecca Strauss and Sarah Willey discuss whether employers should review job candidates' and employees' social media activity, the legal risks involved, and practical steps HR professionals can take to minimize exposure while making informed employment decisions. As social media screening becomes more common and AI-powered tools make searches faster and easier, employers are increasingly weighing the benefits of identifying potential red flags against concerns involving discrimination, privacy, compliance, and bias. Rebecca and Sarah break down what organizations need to consider before incorporating social media reviews into hiring or employment decisions. Tune in as we explore: How social media searches can create discrimination and protected-class concerns Privacy considerations, notice requirements, and state law compliance issues Risks associated with AI-powered social media screening and why human review remains critical Whether you're considering social media reviews for applicants, evaluating screening vendors, or updating hiring practices, this episode provides practical guidance for navigating this increasingly common HR challenge.

In this episode of the WIIRE Podcast, we sit down with Victoria Sydni, owner of Fulcrum Property Management in Corvallis, Oregon, to talk about something every woman in real estate secretly worries about: hard tenant conversations. We walk through real scripts and strategies for: Screening tenants with no credit, no job, or big sob stories Enforcing your lease terms when tenants cause damage Charging back for maintenance issues that are clearly tenant-caused Handling non-responsive tenants and repeated no-shows for maintenance Setting and communicating business hours and true emergency protocols Doing security deposit accounting confidently, with documentation to back you up Navigating breakups on the lease (when one partner wants off) Communicating rent increases without feeling like “the bad guy” We also talk candidly about the mindset shift from “I feel bad” to “I run a business,” especially for female landlords and investors who want to stay kind but firm. You'll hear how we set boundaries, avoid becoming friends with tenants, and still lead with compassion—without getting walked on. If you're a female real estate investor or aspiring landlord who fears the midnight maintenance call or the angry text, this episode will give you language, confidence, and systems to protect both your cash flow and your peace of mind.     Resources: Follow Victoria on Instagram Listen to Episode 158 Get the deets on Steadily Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenant Make sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community  Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts Leave us a review on Spotify Join our private Facebook Community Connect with us on Instagram

After a breast cancer diagnosis, what happens first—seeing an oncologist, having surgery or starting chemotherapy? And how do doctors decide between a lumpectomy and a mastectomy?In this episode of Baptist Health Talk, host Johanna Gomez sits down with Dr. Mehran Habibi, Deputy Chief of Breast Surgery with Baptist Health Cancer Care, to answer common questions patients search online about breast cancer surgery and treatment.They discuss: The difference between a medical oncologist and a surgical oncologist  Who patients typically see first after a breast cancer diagnosis  How doctors decide whether chemotherapy or surgery comes first  Why chemo first does not automatically mean the cancer is more aggressive  Whether chemotherapy can be shortened when a tumor responds well  Why second opinions and breast cancer specialists can matter  The truth about the myth that surgery or biopsy can make breast cancer spread  Why treatment may still be needed after a tumor is removed  How doctors and patients choose between lumpectomy and mastectomy  Why feeling fine is not a reason to delay recommended treatment  How lymph node involvement affects staging and treatment  Options for immediate or delayed breast reconstruction  How AI is beginning to support breast imaging, surgical planning and treatment decisions Subscribe to Baptist Health for more expert conversations on health, wellness, prevention and treatment.Host:Johanna GomezAward-Winning Host & JournalistGuest:Mehran Habibi, M.D.Deputy Chief of Breast Surgery Baptist Health Cancer CareIf you found this episode helpful, we recommend these links for additional information:Diagnosed With Breast Cancer: What's Next?Breast Cancer in Young Women: Signs, Screenings, and When to SpeakLife After Breast Cancer: Fear, Healing, and Hope

Screening tools exist because the human eye misses things. There is a ten-question screen built specifically for postpartum mood disorders. Lindsay Clancy took it in November 2022 with a nurse practitioner and scored 23 out of 30. Testimony established McLean Hospital never gave it to her.The three first-degree murder counts against Clancy all carry not guilty pleas. Cora, Dawson, and Callan died on January 24, 2023. She admits causing their deaths. The not criminally responsible claim rests on postpartum psychosis and bipolar disorder. The Commonwealth says she acted rationally and knew what she was doing.This is the full conversation with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott, running all three parts.Part one explains the illness. A 2017 review in BMC Psychiatry puts postpartum psychosis at roughly one or two births in a thousand, and it usually arrives within days or weeks of delivery. Callan was eight months old.Part two examines the clinicians. Dr. Jennifer Tufts treated Clancy across fourteen video sessions without ever meeting her, and testified she relied on Clancy to volunteer whatever mattered. Dr. Alia Goodheart testified her caseload had never included one.Part three covers bipolar disorder, raised by a nurse practitioner in 2022 and written on the McLean discharge as severe depression with no psychotic features noted.Nightbird is her published memoir. Both doctors dispute the malpractice claims.The McLean admission began January 1, 2023 and ended with a discharge four days later. She has been in a wheelchair throughout the proceedings. Shavaun covers what changes in treatment once bipolar disorder is on the chart, and why a mood stabilizer alters the entire prescribing calculus.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In episode 385 of The Physical Performance Show, host Brad Beer sits down with fellow physiotherapist Lewis Craig for a lateral ankle sprain masterclass. Drawing on material the pair recently presented at a Gold Coast orthopedic evening, Brad and Lewis cover the burden and prevalence of lateral ankle sprains, the three-part clinical assessment process, key differential diagnoses, rehabilitation phases, and preventative strategies including bracing and taping. The episode explores why lateral ankle sprains — despite their reputation as a minor injury — carry a significant risk of chronic ankle instability, and why a thorough, structured assessment is essential to a smooth recovery. Brad and Lewis unpack the different ligament and tendon structures that can be involved, the red flags practitioners need to rule out, the impairment categories drawn from Jay Hertel's model of chronic ankle instability, and how rehabilitation should progress from protection through to return to sport and long-term prevention.

"Four out of ten people who have an ankle sprain go on to develop a chronic instability." "The better quality of the assessment, the more likely there's an accurate diagnosis." "It's really hard to sprain your ankle when it's really well strapped or with an appropriate brace." "Once someone gets running... you can run in a straight line really well and have really considerable deficits still." "Get it assessed.

A screening result is only worth something if it travels. Lindsay Clancy scored 23 out of 30 on a ten-question postpartum screen administered by a nurse practitioner in November 2022. Her outpatient psychiatrist testified she never requested records from other providers. McLean Hospital obtained none either.Three children died in Duxbury on January 24, 2023. Every count drew a not guilty plea. The killings are not what the jury has to decide. Her attorney says postpartum psychosis and bipolar disorder are why she is not criminally responsible. Prosecutors argue she should be held criminally accountable for intentional acts.Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott run the full three-part conversation here.The first part is the illness — how rare it is, how it moves between disorientation and clarity, and where psychosis parts company with psychopathy.The second is the clinicians. Fourteen video appointments and no in-person visit. A McLean psychiatrist who testified she had encountered none of these cases. A patient who was herself a labor and delivery nurse and was taken at her word by everyone.The third is bipolar disorder — raised by a nurse practitioner in 2022, ruled out by a psychiatrist for lack of mania, and recorded on the McLean discharge as major depressive disorder, severe, without psychotic features.Shavaun credits what worked too, including a nurse practitioner who handed Clancy her personal cell number. Neither accepts liability in the civil suits.The nurse practitioner who administered that screen, Julie Paul, launched South Shore Hospital's perinatal program in 2018 and saw Clancy for about ten days before leaving for another position. Clancy's lawsuit says a Columbia psychiatrist later diagnosed bipolar disorder with psychosis after an eight-hour evaluation.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Medical screening is often framed as an uncomplicated good: if disease is found earlier, treatment can begin earlier and outcomes should improve. This episode examines why that reasoning is incomplete. Screening can produce benefit, but it can also generate false positives, incidental findings, overdiagnosis, overtreatment and diagnostic cascades. Dr. Austin Baraki discusses the distinction between screening people without relevant symptoms and investigating a clinical problem, the probabilistic interpretation of test results, biases that can make screening appear more effective than it is, and the importance of shared decision-making before a test is ordered.
