In this segment, our guest Sandra Barros shares with us her family life to decode immigrant parenting choices and how generational messages of identity are internalized. We explored "Spanish only" homes discussing how assimilation, discrimination, and collective trauma influence the choices of parents. Sandra reflects on her therapeutic work and draws how these internalized messages produce shame, while offering strategies for finding healing through collective action during times of political distress and decompressing on an individualistic and collectivistic level. About today's guest: Sandra Barros, LCSW-QS (she, her, ella) believes that everyone deserves a life grounded in purpose, empowerment, emotional well-being, and fulfilling relationships. She believes we do this together, in community. Through a warm, nonjudgmental approach, she works collaboratively with clients to build on their strengths and inner wisdom to address life challenges. Some of her areas of passion include nurturing self-confidence, cultivating fulfilling relationships, transforming trauma and loss into strength and meaning, overcoming imposter syndrome and anxiety (moving from perfectionism and fear toward grounded purpose), and fostering healing and empowerment from racial injustice for BIPOC folks, activists and community organizers. She also supports harm reduction, mindful self-care, and 12-step recovery approaches that emphasize self-kindness, for both alcohol use and challenges with emotional eating. As a racial justice organizer for over 20 years and the daughter of Colombian immigrants, Sandra is passionate about racial, immigrant, gender, and 2SLGBTQIA+ justice. Sandra provides Clinical Supervision for Social Workers wanting support developing a Liberation Psychology and De-Colonial approach to therapeutic practice. She can often be found on the salsa dance floor or participating in social causes as part of her self-care and community care.

Sports Social Work Is Booming: NIL, Athlete Mental Health & Careers | Dr. Matthew MooreDr. Matthew Moore joins Diversified Game to break down the rapidly growing field of sport social work and what it actually takes to build a career helping athletes beyond the scoreboard.Dr. Moore is Associate Dean of Academic and Student Affairs at the University of Kentucky College of Social Work, co-founder of the Alliance of Social Workers in Sports, founder/editor of the Sport Social Work Journal, and a leader in sport social work education and research.We get into the questions people usually avoid: Do sports social work certificates actually help you get hired? Are relationships and real athletic experience more valuable than credentials? Should social workers pursue a PhD or DSW? Why are many PhD programs funded while DSW programs often are not? Where does AI help research, and where does it fall short?The conversation goes deeper into NIL, athlete protection, dual relationships, financial literacy, youth burnout, international athletes, recruiting in Africa, and the danger of making athletic identity a young person's entire identity. Dr. Moore explains why collegiate and community sports are seeing some of the strongest growth opportunities for social workers and why social work, psychology, psychiatry, coaching, and athletic training should work together instead of competing.We also discuss the University of Kentucky's sport social work education pathways, career networking, his sport social work textbook, and a new comprehensive sport social work handbook being developed with more than 100 international experts.GUESTDr. Matthew MooreUniversity of Kentucky College of Social WorkEmail: mattmoore@uky.eduAlliance of Social Workers in SportsSport Social Work JournalLearn the mindset and moves that lead to real results.

Send a Text to the Moms - please include your contact info if you want a response. thanks!Guest: , Melissa Dalhoe, Social Worker, Asst Professor, University of Minnesota Dept of Psychiatry & Behavioral SciencesFor parents of loved ones with serious mental illness, one question often lingers beneath the surface: Will they ever find love? Will they date, build relationships, or have a partner to share life with?Dating and Mental Illness DiscussionThe podcast team welcomed Melissa Dalhoe to discuss dating and serious mental illness. The discussion focused on the concept of "frozen in time," where a person's emotional growth stops at the onset of their mental illness, potentially affecting their ability to form relationships. Melissa was brought in to discuss this topic after a listener requested information about someone with schizophrenia who missed out on dating during their teenage years due to their illness.Dating Curriculum for Psychosis PatientsMelissa explained how she became interested in developing a dating curriculum for individuals with first-episode psychosis, noting that it was driven by the wants and needs of the people she works with. She described the curriculum development process, which included input from multiple professionals and individuals with lived experience, as well as a survey of program participants. The curriculum, which is set to launch in August, focuses on skills training for dating and relationships, with an emphasis on interprofessional perspectives and lived experience input.Dating Curriculum for Psychosis PatientsMelissa discussed a new dating skills curriculum being implemented in the University of Minnesota's Navigate program for people with first episode psychosis, aged 18 and over. The curriculum covers topics like values, goals, dating apps, messaging etiquette, emotional intimacy, and social cognition specific to interpreting emotions in relationships. The program will offer both in-person and online classes over the course of a year, with social activities and potential membership opportunities to support skill development outside of formal classes. Melissa emphasized the importance of ensuring dating goals are self-directed rather than imposed by family, and noted that while recruitment is ongoing, there has been strong interest from potential participants.-Social Skills for Schizophrenia: A Step by Step Guide - https://www.amazon.com/Social-Skills-Training-Schizophrenia-Second/dp/157230846XMove to Heal in Connecticut:https://www.movetohealct.org/-Melissa Dalhoe, DSW, MSW, LICSW, mdalhoe@umn.edu, https://med.umn.edu/bio/melissa-dalhoe -UMN Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences Affiliated Psychosis Program InformationM Physicians NAVIGATE Program - https://mphysicians.org/our-clinics/st-louis-park-clinic-navigate-programM Health Fairview Adult Strengths Program - https://www.mhealthfairview.org/treatment/adult-strengths-program STRIDE for Bipolar Disorder - https://www.mhealthfairview.org/treatment/stride-first-episode-bipolarM Health Fairview Child & Adolescent Strengths Program - https://www.mhealthfairview.org/treatment/university-minnesota-child-and-adolescent-strengths-program-caspM Health Fairview Early Strengths Program - https://www.mhealthfairview.org/treatment/early-strengths-programReferral PathwaysCall 952-525-4500 (M Physicians St Louis Park psychiatry clinic location) or 612-273-8700 (M Health Fairview Riverside psychiatry clinic location)https://www.mhealthfairview.org/early-intervention-program-referral-informationThanks for liking and sharing the podcast!

Dave Temkin notes, "My work is rooted in the fact that each of us already holds the capacity for healing, growth, and meaningful change. Sometimes, life experiences—stress, trauma, loss, or transitions—can make that harder to access. My role is to help you reconnect with those inner strengths. Your True Self can be uncovered using therapy combined with ancient healing wisdom. Oftentimes, clients talk to a therapist for years. When they enter my office, I always ask what tools they have learned. Sadly, few have them. I listen, but I also teach skills that you can use every day to achieve and maintain balance.

In this episode I'm back after a quieter month, off Instagram, in therapy, having acupuncture, and thinking about a lot of things. This one covers the personal and the professional in equal measure.I'm talking about the naming of social workers in the media following the Preston Davey case, why the way decisions in social work are actually made is so consistently misrepresented, and what I think our response as a profession needs to look like. I'm also getting into the social workers are superheroes narrative and why it worries me, what's been happening with BASW and the International Federation of Social Workers and why I think members should be paying attention, and what starting therapy taught me about the connection between body and mind in a job like ours.It's a long one.

EPISODE 731 - Lance Hillsinger - Child Welfare Social Worker to Author - Navigating Legal Documents to AuthorshipIn this thoughtful episode, author and retired social worker Lance Hilzinger joins us from San Luis Obispo, California, to reflect on a lifetime of service in the child welfare system and his journey into writing. With three decades of experience advocating for children and families in Los Angeles and San Luis Obispo Counties, Lance offers a candid look behind the courtroom doors of juvenile and foster care cases. He shares how both frustration and hope became the foundation for his writing, leading to several books that examine social policy, history, and faith.Lance began his career with a master's degree in psychology from Vanderbilt University before realizing that academia wasn't his calling. A twist of fate led him to a social work position where he found his true purpose—helping families heal, understanding parents struggling with addiction, and advocating for vulnerable children. Over the years, he witnessed the evolution of the foster care system, including new programs supporting youth up to age twenty‑one, and the ongoing challenges of poverty, substance abuse, and a shortage of foster homes.Discussing his writing, Lance explains how technical report writing in court shaped his clear, factual, and concise storytelling style. His first book captured the evolution—both progress and pitfalls—of child welfare practices, inspiring readers to consider becoming foster parents or court advocates. Later works broadened his focus: “Build a Better Bridge: Social Policy for the Twenty‑First Century” revisits America's War on Poverty, calling for smarter, long‑lasting solutions to chronic social issues, while “Beyond Amelia: Lesser Known Women of Yesteryear” celebrates unsung female pioneers in science, leadership, and exploration. His newest book, “Matthew, Mark, Luke and John: A Court Investigator Examines the Gospels,” blends logical analysis and faith, exploring timeless biblical truths through a modern lens.Lance also shares his experiences with publishing—its rewards, challenges, and lessons learned about contracts, editing, and choosing the right partner. Throughout the conversation, he returns to one unshakable theme: the importance of compassion, honesty, and consistency, whether in social work, writing, or personal faith. He reminds listeners that real change happens slowly but meaningfully, through persistence and integrity.Key Takeaway:Lance Hilzinger's story is a testament to serving others with empathy and endurance. Whether guiding a family through hardship or crafting a book that bridges understanding, his work invites us to believe that steady, thoughtful effort can make systems—and lives—better.https://www.lancehillsinger.net/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

What if the most important care in the entire healthcare system is also the most underfunded? While hospitals and inpatient reimbursements rise with inflation, the physician fee schedule has quietly declined roughly 33% in real terms over 25 years — and this year it's facing another cut. In this episode, Jamie Preston sits down with Your Health CEO Matt Staub, just back from Capitol Hill, where he spent a record-setting 95-degree day meeting with seven legislative offices to advocate for physicians, providers, and the patients they serve across rural South Carolina, Georgia, and beyond. What follows is part field report, part reflection on why preventive primary care saves money and lives — and why we plan meticulously for weddings, retirement, and vacations, but treat our own health with a "call us if something happens" approach. In this conversation: Why a 2.5–5% physician fee cut hits frontline rural practices hardest The bipartisan doctors' caucus and the real appetite for reform Why winning can come from a loss — the Kobe Bryant mindset on process over outcome How a Disney ride (Spaceship Earth) reframes humanity's whole story around communication The case for proactive, team-based primary care over reactive sick visits Press play for a conversation about advocacy, communication, and a simple, powerful idea: the change you need to make starts with you.

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton were honored to welcome Mari Baxter as guest to the show. About Mari Baxter, Chief Operating Officer, Senior Helpers®: Ms. Baxter began her career with Senior Helpers® in 2008 when there were just 40 franchisees. After working in the field for several years, Mari was promoted to Vice President of Operations in 2011, with the additional responsibilities of all resales, corporate stores, international franchising, and the training department. In 2021, she moved into the position of Chief Operating Officer. As COO, Mari and her field staff, Directors and department Vice Presidents oversee all franchise and corporate store operations, compliance management, advanced training, client care and retention programs, and vendor and national account relations. She has more than 15 years of leadership, operational and management experience in the franchise space, in addition to more than 14 years as a successful business owner and entrepreneur. About Senior Helpers® : Senior Helpers® is the nation's premier provider of in-home, non-medical senior services ranging from specialized care for those with diseases such as dementia, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's to personal and companion care to help individuals looking for a little assistance with daily activities. Our service options are flexible and completely customizable to your specific needs, and your personalized senior care plan can combine aspects of any of our service offerings. When you first contact a Senior Helpers office, we will set up a complimentary initial assessment at the client's dwelling to determine their needs and formulate an individualized care plan. When needed, a qualified staff member, Social Worker, or Registered Nurse (depending on state regulations) will conduct a full assessment to aid in this process and further articulate the care plan. We will then use this assessment in our caregiver matching process to choose the most appropriate caregiver for our clients. Senior Helpers elevates its care for clients through three key programs: the proprietary LIFE Profile assessment tool, the Senior Gems® program, and the Center of Excellence training spaces. LIFE Profile is a research-based technology tool that uses data to identify a client's risk of being hospitalized. The Senior Gems® program provides effective strategies for supporting and caring for loved ones from normal aging through late-stage dementia, focusing on what is precious and unique about each senior at each stage. The Senior Helpers® Center of Excellence is a training space designed to simulate a client's home, allowing caregivers to learn and train in a real-world environment and demonstrate their ability to provide the highest quality of care in a client's home.
