John Batchelor is the host of the Friends of History Debating Society. He broadcasts from New England, where he is currently entering autumn, contrasting with Jeremy Zakis's springtime in New South Wales. He refers to Jeremy Zakisas his "good mate." Batchelor often guides the conversation with Jeremy Zakis, asking about: Dallas and the bird collection, noting Dallas's role as a "social worker" or "foreign affairs" diplomat. He initiates the discussion by asking about the "bird collection" and if it has "changed its order of battle." Batchelor notes that discussing springtime with Jeremy is "far more interesting" than preparing his own garden for winter's colder days. He also discusses python sightings, specifically mentioning a photograph of two pythons battling on a library roof on the Sunshine Coast, questioning if such an event is ordinary for an urban area. He emphasizes that he is in New England, in the "northern temperate zone," while Jeremy Zakis is in the "southern temperate zone."

What does it take to challenge centuries of tradition and shift an entire culture's relationship with alcohol? In this episode, I sit down with Moa Gürbüzer, a former social worker and family therapist who saw firsthand how alcohol harms families and communities. Rather than staying in the therapy room, Moa decided to tackle the issue at its roots: our cultural norms and rituals around drinking.At the age of 55, she founded Oddbird, a Swedish winery dedicated to producing world-class, non-alcoholic wines. Partnering with leading oenologists and more than 100 vineyards, Moa has turned skepticism into admiration—her wines are now served in Michelin-starred restaurants, featured at the Nobel Prize after-party, and even gifted to Porsche owners in Sweden.Moa shares her journey from being dismissed as an “outsider” to building a respected brand that blends craftsmanship, science, and social purpose. We talk about why shame is at the core of drinking culture, how women supporting women can accelerate change, and why failure should be celebrated as part of the entrepreneurial process.This is a conversation about innovation, resilience, and rewriting the rules—not only for the wine industry, but for how we celebrate, connect, and care for one another.This season of our podcast is brought to you by TD Canada Women in Enterprise.

Join me, Tammy Roche, for another episode of Social Worker in Private Practice. Not just for social workers anymore—this podcast dives into the work, the life, and the deeper questions in between. In this episode, I'm talking about what it really means to tune in when our body is speaking—often louder than we realize. From fatigue and tension, to those subtle nudges we tend to dismiss, our body is constantly sending us notifications. The question is: are we paying attention, or are we too busy silencing the alerts? I share my own experiences with ignoring the signs until they couldn't be ignored any longer, and what shifted when I finally chose to listen. Learning to honour the signals of our body isn't just about self-care—it's about creating a healthier, more sustainable way of living and working. If you've been feeling worn out, disconnected, or like your body is waving a red flag you'd rather not see, this episode is an invitation to pause, notice, and respond with compassion. The podcast will take a short break and will resume with all new episodes in October.  P.S. – Also in October, I'll be participating in the 2025 Shitbox Rally—a car rally fundraiser raising money for Cancer Council. It's a cause that's deeply meaningful to me, and I'd love for you to check it out. You can learn more and support my journey at tammyroche.com/giving-2025-1.

In Sickness and In Chains: The Human Cost of Prison Medical Neglect w/ Darwin PageIn this episode, we sit down with Darwin Page, who endured a devastating medical ordeal while incarcerated in Michigan's prison system. What began as a surgery spiraled into a nightmare of infections, untreated complications, and neglect so severe that he lost his right toe and required further surgery on the heel of both of his feet. Darwin's story is not an isolated incident—it's part of a much larger pattern of systemic medical abuse and neglect inside the Michigan Department of Corrections.We connect Darwin's experience to the ongoing case of Krystal Denise Clark, who is currently housed at Women's Huron Valley Correctional Facility, who is now fighting for her life after years of untreated medical conditions and exposure to toxic mold. Her case, like Darwin's, reveals the deadly consequences of a prison healthcare system that routinely fails those in its custody.Together, their stories highlight the urgent truth: incarceration should not be a death sentence, and denying medical care is both a moral failure and a human rights violation. Also joining us is Lukey Lawson who was recently exonerated.***Turning A Moment Into A Movement Podcast MISSION:To bring awareness, organize, and create content that will be a resource that will aide families, communities, and those seeking Justice for WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS and Injustice. ...and advocating for Justice & Exoneration for GERARD HAYCRAFT. www.change.org/Justice4GerardTurning A Moment Ino A Moment Team:-Jay Love Host: Founder and Creator of Turning A Moment Into A Movement, The Justice for Gerard Movement, to learn more about The Justice for Gerard Movement go to: ⁠www.change.org/Justice4Gerard⁠Executive Board member of Michigan Coalition of Human Rights, G100 Prison Reforms & Reintegration Global Advisory Council Member-Rev.

AI therapy? Not if you're in Illinois. The state has banned the use of artificial intelligence for mental health therapy. It is just the third state to put restrictions on the use of AI in the field, joining Nevada and Utah. While some therapists support the ban, others are opposed, arguing that AI allows them to be more present in their client meetings. Others also vouch for AI therapy as a cheaper mental health care option for those who cannot afford professional care. Reset hears more about what the ban could mean for mental health care patients and providers in Illinois. Today's panel: Aaron Weiner, PhD, licensed clinical psychologist and addiction specialist; Blase Ur, assistant professor of computer science, University of Chicago; Joel Rubin, executive director, National Association of Social Workers, Illinois chapter; Mario Treto Jr., Secretary of Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation.

Join me, Tammy Roche, for another episode of Social Worker in Private Practice. Not just for social workers anymore—this podcast dives into the work, the life, and the deeper questions in between. In this episode, I explore the different ways we try to “keep the peace,” from the chronic accommodator and the avoider, to the fixer, the chameleon, the overfunctioner, and the self-silencer. For years, I wore more than one of those hats, believing it was my job to smooth things over. I've learned that sometimes you have to embrace discomfort in the moment to protect your well-being in the long term. Avoiding it might keep everyone else comfortable for a moment, but it can quietly drain you over time. I'm sharing what it's looked like to choose real peace over false harmony, and how stepping into the hard moments has brought more calm into my life—not less. P.S. – This October, I'll be participating in the 2025 Shitbox Rally—a car rally fundraiser raising money for Cancer Council. It's a cause that's deeply meaningful to me, and I'd love for you to check it out. You can learn more and support my journey at tammyroche.com/giving-2025-1.

On paper, she had what many clinical therapists would call a “dream job,” but deep down, she knew it wasn't the work she wanted to do for the rest of her career.Like many experienced social workers, she had previously applied to macro social work positions and even interviewed for them, but she wasn't landing the roles. She could find jobs. That wasn't the problem, but the opportunities she was getting weren't in alignment with the kind of impact she wanted to make.Inside the Micro to Macro Career Accelerator, Candice went through my 30–45 day clarity process using my 3 Ps framework. She learned exactly how to translate her skills and experience into the language that hiring managers in macro settings understand. She discovered she was already qualified for macro social work jobs. Roles she would have skipped over before because she didn't think she had the right background.The result? She landed a macro social work job that pays 50% more than she was making before, meets all her personal and professional non-negotiables, and perfectly aligns with her career vision.If you're a clinical or non-clinical (licensed or unlicensed) social worker who is ready to move beyond direct practice and into macro social work, you don't have to figure it out on your own. The blueprint exists, and it works.Enrollment for the next Micro to Macro Career Accelerator cohort opens on 8/17/25.
