Throughout the last few decades, our lives have drastically changed along with the advancements in technology. In today's society, some sort of electronic technology is involved in almost anything we do. This brings us to a point where we have to question whether we're too dependent on technology. In this week's episode of the Tech Savvy Lawyer, we have a deep conversation about when technology becomes too much and not needed. Joining us today is Wendy Meadows, a family law lawyer, a mediator, and a certified life coach who also helps fellow lawyer parents transform so that they can combat overwhelm and burnout. Wendy prides herself on her ability to guide clients through one of the most difficult situations they may ever have to experience. She is compassionate yet results-oriented. Wendy concentrates on the specific goals of each client's case, along with a special focus on their life after divorce. She understands that the practice of law, and methods of resolution, are not a “one-size-fits-all” solution. Wendy focuses on helping clients evaluate all aspects of their cases, determining the optimal options for resolution, and making recommendations about the best approach for their divorce, custody, or support matters. Through this experience, she realized she could make an impact in someone's life in a way that was deeper and more profound than litigation - this led her to life coaching. Join Wendy and me as we discuss the following three questions and more! What are three myths the working parents in the legal field need to dispel about their use of technology at work? What are three software/hardware you see or recommend that help lawyers regain their time? and What are three software/hardware you see or recommend that help lawyers reduce burnout?

This is Part 2 of a two-part LTI provider discussion, where we look at the latest research and commentaries on laser therapy for low back pain. The discussion is expanded to include discussion on medical research and what it can or cannot tell us about medicine in general. Why does the medical field demand more and more extensive research for a clearly safe intervention like laser therapy while commonly performing irreversible surgeries with almost no evidence for efficacy? Are there medical practices and procedures that happen every day, without the proper research to back them?   Studies mentioned in this episodeAmerica performs far more CT and MRI scans than other countries.

Under a new health order, San Franciscans no longer need to wear a mask while doing outdoor activities like walking or biking when they’re alone or with members of their household. Unvaccinated people should wear a mask if social distancing can’t be maintained. Fully vaccinated people can almost entirely forgo masks outdoors, with some specific exceptions. Dr. Susan Philip, San Francisco's health officer, explains the details of the new order and how these decisions are made.

Members of San Francisco's Homeless Outreach Team — also known as the “HOT team” — walk neighborhood beats to offer support, information, and referrals to services for people living on the streets. During the pandemic, the resources available, particularly shelters, changed significantly. Meanwhile, our collective understanding of what would work best to contain the spread was changing too. Mark Mazza, outreach manager for the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, shares how those changes have affected members of this team.

Advocates for residents of long term care facilities like nursing homes have been pushing for San Francisco to ease pandemic-related restrictions on people visiting their loved ones for weeks. Just a day before, the city health department had issued an order expanding visitation by removing strict local guidelines and aligning with state policy that allows for indoor, in-person visits when they can be done safely. Two advocates with the San Francisco Long Term Care Ombudsman program explain why visitation is so important to facility residents.

Limiting social interaction to be almost entirely online has had serious mental health consequences, particularly for young people who would otherwise be in school. But the pandemic means that help in any form, from new friendships to sessions with a professional therapist, must also take place primarily online. High school sophomore Sadie Crawford and Dr. Martha Merchant, a clinical psychologist, share how they are building those highly personal connections virtually.

Youth mental health was a growing concern even before the pandemic, but the isolation of sheltering in place has come with an increase in depression and unhappiness among young people. San Francisco high school students have been reaching out to one another despite schools being closed to offer some support. Alan Wang, Joyce Truong and Abigail Ault, who have been active in peer wellness programs, share their perspectives.

Undocumented workers have suffered severe income losses and are shut out of many types of government support. A mutual aid effort called Undocufund has raised and distributed more than $3 million. But thousands of applicants are still on a waitlist. Alejo, a co-director with Trabajadores Unidos Workers United, one of the organizations that run Undocufund, recounts the story of how the collaboration began and what impact the grants can have.

In these highlights from a recent reporter roundtable discussion, journalists share their experiences with local government agencies reducing access to records, data and interviews during emergency health orders. Hear from Lydia Chávez, executive editor at Mission Local, Trisha Thadani, a city hall reporter with the San Francisco Chronicle, Scott Morris, an investigative reporter, and independent journalist Nuala Bishari.

Providence Heights offers a revolutionary model for empowering Seattle's at-risk women, with plans to build a model for all of the U.S. The Christian-based nonprofit provides housing, counseling, job training and certification without relying solely on donations or government funding.

They are an intentional training center that will help women discover their purpose.
