Preseason coverage of Glittergate: Embrace the Sparkle fantasy football league

300 Folgen. Sechs Jahre. Und eine Frage, die alles verändert hat.Als ich vor über sechs Jahren die erste Episode von Sparkle & Shine aufgenommen habe, dachte ich, Spiritualität bedeutet, Antworten zu finden.Heute – 300 Folgen später – glaube ich etwas anderes.Ich glaube, dass jede spirituelle Reise mit dem Blick nach außen beginnt. Wir lesen Bücher, hören Podcasts, besuchen Seminare und suchen nach Menschen, die uns den Weg zeigen können. Und genau das ist wichtig.Doch irgendwann verändert sich etwas.Plötzlich suchen wir nicht mehr nach der nächsten Antwort, sondern beginnen zu spüren, welche Wahrheit in uns selbst längst darauf wartet, gehört zu werden.In dieser Jubiläumsfolge nehme ich dich mit auf meine ganz persönliche Reise der letzten sechs Jahre. Ich teile mit dir die Erkenntnisse, die geblieben sind, nachdem unzählige Bücher gelesen, Ausbildungen absolviert und hunderte Podcast-Episoden aufgenommen wurden.Vielleicht ist Spiritualität am Ende gar nicht die Suche nach immer mehr Wissen.Vielleicht ist sie die Erinnerung daran, dass deine Seele den Weg oft schon lange kennt, bevor dein Verstand ihn versteht.In dieser Episode erfährst du:✨ Warum jede spirituelle Reise mit der Suche im Außen beginnt.✨ Weshalb Bücher, Lehrer und Methoden wertvolle Wegweiser sind – aber niemals das eigentliche Ziel.✨ Woran du erkennst, dass sich deine Spiritualität verändert.✨ Warum deine Seele andere Fragen stellt als dein Ego.✨ Weshalb manche Erfahrungen erst Jahre später ihren Sinn offenbaren.✨ Die wichtigste Erkenntnis, die nach 300 Folgen Sparkle & Shine für mich geblieben ist.Drei Gedanken aus dieser Folge:„Früher dachte ich, Spiritualität bedeutet, immer mehr Antworten zu finden. Heute glaube ich, Spiritualität bedeutet, immer mehr Frieden mit den offenen Fragen zu schließen.“„Die besten Lehrer wollen nicht, dass du ihnen dein Leben lang folgst. Sie freuen sich über den Moment, in dem du beginnst, dir selbst zu vertrauen.“„Vielleicht fragt deine Seele am Ende nicht, wie erfolgreich du warst. Sondern nur: Bist du durch all das mehr du selbst geworden?“Ich wünsche dir von Herzen, dass diese Folge dich daran erinnert, deiner eigenen inneren Stimme wieder ein Stück mehr zu vertrauen.Schön, dass wir diesen Weg seit mittlerweile 300 Folgen gemeinsam gehen.

We are two games into the RGR Tour (Phil has exhausted our free tokens for the full name) and the All Blacks have as many questions as they do answers. Cape Town was treated to a spectacle on and off the field against a second string side, while Durban was a damp downer against a more formidable lineup. The Boks out-gritted the Argentinians away but at the cost of their captain, while the All Blacks have also been losing men early. How will the two teams cope over the coming weeks? Who will be first choice come the Ellis Park opener on both sides? We try to channel our inner Rassie and we're probably way off, but please have a listen anyway. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.

Full Episode 8-10-26 - In this episode, we discuss the Nolan Wells case, Flock taking care of itself, and the philosophy that causes homelessness. Sparkle has a surprise!

Journalist Gil Durán argues that a small circle of Silicon Valley billionaires and venture capitalists have concluded that democracy is in their way — and that they should be governing in its place. Durán traces their fringe ideologies from blogs, manifestos and private talks straight to the White House. “The weird stuff these guys say in their blogs or in their speeches is not just eccentric fluff. Because they have so much money, they can turn these weird ideas into policy and cause tremendous damage.” His book is The Nerd Reich. Also, Ken Tucker has a 50th anniversary appreciation of the Sparkle soundtrack. Loosely based on the girl group The Supremes, the 1976 film starred Aretha Franklin and the music was written and produced by Curtis Mayfield. Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter Follow us on Instagram Subscribe to our YouTube channel Check out the Fresh Air ArchivesSupport public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

The 4 Phases of Betrayal Recovery: Are You Healing—or Just Learning? After betrayal, it is easy to become trapped in an endless cycle of learning. You listen to more podcasts, read more books, study nervous system regulation, attachment, boundaries, narcissism, reconciliation, and divorce—hoping the next piece of information will finally make you feel clear. But there comes a point when gathering more information can become its own form of hypervigilance. In Part One of this two-part series, Lora Cheadle introduces the four phases of her Life Choreography® Method: Regulate, Reorient, Reconnect, and Rechoreograph. She guides you through each phase as though you were in a private session together, helping you identify where you are, where you may have skipped ahead, and what kind of support you actually need now. This episode also explores the difference between conscious insight and subconscious change, why the right tool used at the wrong time can feel like another failure, and how hypnosis can help update the old survival rules that continue operating beneath the surface. Top 3 Takeaways Learning more is not always the same as healing. Learning can be an important first step, but endless information gathering can keep you focused on the problem and safely outside your own transformation. At some point, the next step is no longer another book, podcast, or tool. It is allowing what you already know to change how you live. Betrayal recovery has an order. The four phases of the Life Choreography® Method are Regulate, Reorient, Reconnect, and Rechoreograph. You cannot force clarity while your nervous system is still in survival, reconnect with yourself before orienting to the truth, or rebuild a life that reflects who you are before knowing who you are now. Conscious understanding may not change a subconscious survival pattern. You can consciously know that you are safe, worthy, and capable of making decisions while your body continues reacting from fear, abandonment, or helplessness. Hypnosis helps update the subconscious beliefs, conditioned associations, and old survival rules that keep recreating the same emotional response.

From Powerless to Sovereign: Reclaiming Your Voice, Intuition, and Financial Power After Betrayal with Soochen Low Betrayal can leave you feeling as though you have lost control over everything—your relationship, your future, your finances, and even your ability to trust yourself. You may question your judgment, second-guess every decision, and become so afraid of making another mistake that you stop moving forward altogether. But sovereignty is not about always knowing the right answer. It is about reclaiming your authority over your own life. In this episode, Lora Cheadle is joined by creative power business alchemist and sovereign leadership catalyst Soochen Low for a conversation about rebuilding self-trust, listening to your heart, reclaiming your financial power, and creating a life that belongs to you. Soochen shares her experience of leaving a controlling and emotionally abusive marriage after ten years of feeling that she was never doing, earning, or contributing enough. Although she had built successful businesses and generated significant income, she had allowed someone else's story about her worth to become more powerful than her own. Together, Lora and Soochen explore what it means to trust your heart after it has been broken—and why listening to your intuition does not guarantee that life will always be easy or painless. Sometimes your inner wisdom warns you away from something. Other times, it leads you directly into an experience that becomes part of your growth, awakening, and evolution. They also discuss the financial fear that often accompanies betrayal and why earning, receiving, and building wealth are not selfish. Money can become an expression of agency, creativity, generosity, and freedom. Reclaiming your financial power is not merely about making more money. It is about recognizing that you are capable of supporting yourself, directing your life, and making choices based on what is right for you. This conversation is an invitation to stop waiting until you feel completely certain, stop demanding perfection from yourself, and begin moving forward one choice at a time. Because becoming sovereign does not mean you will never make another mistake. It means the choices—and the life—are finally yours. Top 3 Takeaways Your heart may not have betrayed you. After betrayal, it is common to believe that your intuition failed because you trusted someone who later hurt you. But you may have heard your inner wisdom and not yet understood it, or your path may have contained lessons and growth that you could not have anticipated. Rebuilding self-trust begins with curiosity and compassion rather than blaming yourself for what you did not know. Financial sovereignty is part of recovering yourself. Betrayal can create intense fears about money, security, and survival. Reclaiming your financial power means recognizing your ability to create, earn, receive, and make decisions for yourself. Money does not have to be associated with greed, selfishness, or proving your worth. It can support freedom, generosity, service, and choice. Sovereignty is not perfection—it is agency. You do not have to know exactly how everything will turn out before you move. You are allowed to choose, make mistakes, change your mind, and choose again. Your power is not found in getting every decision right. It is found in knowing that you can respond, adjust, and continue creating a life that reflects who you are now. Favorite Quotes “I thought I was going to crash and burn. But I didn't. I discovered I had wings—that I could actually fly.” —Soochen Low About Soochen Soochen Low is a creative power business alchemist and sovereign leadership catalyst who supports creative, conscious, mission-driven women in building financially sustainable businesses without abandoning their integrity, creativity, or values. Her work helps women move beyond people-pleasing, proving, and self-sacrifice so they can reclaim their creative power and lead their businesses, income, lives, and destinies with greater sovereignty. She is also the author of the forthcoming book From Servant Girl to Sovereign Queen, which explores rewriting the stories that keep women small, transforming their businesses, and leading from the wisdom of the heart. Are you tired of feeling as though you must choose between profitability and integrity, financial success and creative freedom, or growing your business and remaining true to yourself?

When we teach children to trust their feelings, we give them one of the most powerful tools they'll ever have for staying safe. In this important conversation, Ginny sits down with attorney, child wellness advocate, and author Joy Stevenson-Laws to explore why feelings—not rules—are often a child's first line of defense. Inspired by her own family's experience, Joy explains how children process the world through emotions long before they can fully understand logic, and why validating those feelings can create the trust children need to speak up when something doesn't feel right. Together they discuss Joy's new picture book, Secrets That Sparkle and Secrets That Sting, a beautifully written resource that helps families distinguish between joyful, harmless secrets and unsafe secrets that should always be shared with a trusted adult. They also explore practical ways parents can foster meaningful conversations, help children recognize what their bodies are telling them, and create homes where every feeling is welcomed without shame or dismissal. This episode is an encouraging reminder that emotional awareness isn't about raising fearful children—it's about raising confident, connected kids who know their voices matter. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, teacher, or caregiver, you'll come away with practical tools to strengthen trust, deepen communication, and help children develop the lifelong skill of listening to their intuition.

They know that the intense heat is not good for him, so they devise a plan to create a cool house under the Junkyard Warden's air-conditioned office. But how will they construct this space without the Warden knowing? And how will they sneak in Mr. Flinch? And what happens when all the other animals hear about this deliciously cool house?

"As algorithms and AI increasingly automate the ""what"" and the ""how"" of marketing, what is the enduring value of human creativity, and how do we prove its worth?Agility requires not just adapting our tools, but fundamentally rethinking how we define, nurture, and measure creative value in a world increasingly guided by machine logic.Today, we're going to talk about the intersection of brand creativity and artificial intelligence. We'll explore:- Why brand distinctiveness becomes a critical differentiator when algorithms favor homogeneity.- The new operational model for creative teams, where human judgment guides machine-speed execution.- Strategies for building lasting brand memory in a media landscape optimized for short-term performance.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Jason Ippen, Vice President, Brand Strategy & Content at Georgia-Pacific.

Episode 276: Every 10 Years, A Whole New You! Welcome back to another episode of the Life Coach BFF Show! We're kicking things off technical-difficulty-free and giddy with laughter today. Grab a cup of coffee (or a glass of wine) and settle in for a fun, heartfelt chat about how much we evolve over a decade, navigating changing friendships, and finding joyful new hobbies as we age. In This Episode, We Discuss: The 10-Year Evolution: Reflecting on how much our lives, priorities, and personalities change over a decade. The Midnight Library Perspective: A nod to Matt Haig's book and why looking back with grace beats getting stuck in the "Book of Regrets." Growing & Changing Together: How keeping long-term friendships and marriages strong requires flexibility as everyone evolves. Hobbies & New Passions: From BTS super-fans and golf lessons to gardening, bird watching, and gentle yoga classes. Inspiration for the Soul: A beautiful message by Brianna Weiss on letting your life be bigger and bolder than you ever imagined. Episode Highlights & Quotables "Studies show that you become a new person every 10 years... We did the best we could with our 10-year-ago self. Maybe it wasn't perfect, but we grow, our priorities change, and we keep moving forward." 10 Years Ago vs. Now: Moving from being uptight about dishes in the sink to adopting a practical "it'll be there tomorrow" mindset. Friendship Milestones: Celebrating best friends who jump into creative hobbies like 30-year-old hydrangeas or renting sprinters to see K-Pop concerts in their 50s! The Healing Power of Yoga: Why swapping physical therapy for a gentle 2–3 day a week yoga routine has been a game-changer. Featured Quote "I hope you allow your life to be bigger than you ever thought it could be. I hope you allow it to embody more beauty than you ever thought possible. I hope you don't get trapped by the small stories... Most of all, I hope you recognize the light when it hits you." — Brianna Weiss Resources & Links Mentioned Book Recommendation: The Midnight Library by Matt Haig Featured Recipe: Easy Baked Lemon Pesto Chicken (made with Trader Joe's seasonal Lemon Pesto over linguine!)

Send us Fan MailIt's a Super Special Baby-Sitters Club episode! We were thrilled to be joined by special guest, author Lakita Wilson (Be Real, Mercy Weaver, Sparkle, Pretty Girl County) for this episode. She's a BSC super fan and we have so much to say about Stacey. We're tackling two books, The Truth About Stacey and Stacey and the Fashion Victim. We are discussing whether Stacey's diabetes (diabeetus?) is just a stand-in for bigger issues in the 80s, her very weird parents and their truly terrible parenting decisions, and sleepover antics. We're also discussing the truly disturbing events at the heart of Stacey's mystery at the fashion show. Will Stacey become the Fresh Princess of Bellair's or will she have a tragic rooftop accident? Were the gang wars between the BSC and The Agency justified and did they need to involve wearing sandwich boards? We also have thoughts on Watson and his weird relationship with cigars and whether rompers are truly workwear. These Books Made Me is a podcast about the literary heroines who shaped us and is a product of the Prince George's County Memorial Library System podcast network.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Queerly Beloved, Wil is joined by Rev. Yolanda Mapes, a trans femme genderqueer actor, singer-songwriter, performance artist, and interfaith minister. Yolanda is currently working on her tenth studio album and recently released the singles “Did Ya Know” and “Sparkle.” She also guest-starred in episode six of Ryan Murphy's television series The Beauty.Yolanda shares her journey of gender expression, spirituality, and artistic self-discovery from growing up as a feminine child in Alabama to finding freedom and affirmation within the Radical Faerie community. She reflects on the limitations of binary gender and the importance of creating enough safety for each person's unique expression to emerge.The conversation moves into Yolanda's longtime practice of A Course in Miracles and its teachings about forgiveness, ego, nonattachment, and remembering who we truly are. Yolanda also speaks movingly about her relationship with her late husband and soulmate, Rev. Glen Ganaway. His unconditional love helped her feel at home in herself, and their shared spiritual practice became a foundation of their life together.After Glen's sudden death, Yolanda experienced a profound shattering that eventually opened into what she describes as a second awakening. She shares how grief, spiritual community, and experiences of Glen's continued presence have deepened her trust in the eternal nature of love—including an extraordinary experience while filming her role in The Beauty around the first anniversary of his passing.Together, they explore: Growing up gender-nonconforming in Alabama before language for trans and nonbinary identities was widely available  Finding affirmation, freedom, and possibility through the Radical Faeries  How unconditional love can create safety for our authentic identity to emerge  Moving beyond binary gender and releasing judgments that block connection  Building bridges of compassion through music, performance, drag, and ministry  Using A Course in Miracles to recognize ego-based thoughts and return to love  What it means to be sustained by the love of God  Grief as a second spiritual awakening  Trusting the ongoing connection between souls beyond physical death  Letting things be exactly as they are instead of resisting life's natural changes This soulful conversation invites us to welcome every moment—whether it contains grief, fear, anger, joy, or infinite love—as part of our healing and spiritual unfolding.Connect with Rev.

Why Feeling Good About Yourself Matters After Betrayal with Jasmin El Kordi of Bluelene After betrayal, it can feel like every thought, every conversation, and every part of your life gets hijacked by infidelity. You are trying to understand what happened, protect yourself legally and financially, regulate your nervous system, and figure out what comes next. But what if part of healing is also allowing yourself moments of normalcy, confidence, curiosity, and even fun? In this episode, Lora Cheadle talks about the importance of titrating betrayal recovery so your entire life does not become consumed by pain, processing, and problem-solving. She shares why simple experiences such as listening to music, dancing, learning something new, taking care of your skin, or feeling good in your body can help interrupt obsessive loops and support nervous system regulation. Lora is joined by Jasmin El Kordi of Bluelene Advanced Skincare for a conversation about stress, aging, confidence, skincare, and the science behind topical methylene blue. Together, they explore how stress can affect the skin, why looking in the mirror after betrayal can feel so painful, and how caring for yourself on the outside can sometimes help you reconnect with yourself on the inside. This is not about vanity. It is about remembering that you are still alive, still worthy, still allowed to feel beautiful, and still allowed to enjoy your life while you heal. Top 3 Takeaways Betrayal recovery has to be titrated. Healing matters, but not every moment of your life has to revolve around infidelity, deep processing, or hard conversations. Feeling good about yourself supports regulation. Confidence, beauty, laughter, music, movement, and small acts of self-care can help your nervous system exhale. Your body knows when something feels aligned. Whether you are making decisions about your relationship, your work, your healing, or your next chapter, your body often registers truth before your mind can explain it. Favorite Quote “Not all betrayal recovery has to be specifically about betrayal recovery.” About Jasmin El Kordi Jasmin El Kordi is a highly accomplished entrepreneur and senior executive with over 30 years of experience in the technology, telecommunications, and wellness industries. Prior to co-founding Bluelene, she held executive and leadership roles at Fortune 500 companies including Sprint, Cisco, and NCR, as well as serving as Vice President for the European consumer goods company Prisma Natural. After graduating Summa cum Laude from the University of Maryland, she shifted her focus to the intersection of longevity science and personal care. As CEO, Jasmin has led Mblue Labs from a university research project into an award-winning, globally recognized biotech platform. Bluelene  is a patented, biotech-driven skincare and hair growth brand built on the anti-aging powers of Methylene Blue The Science: Originally researched as a treatment for Progeria (a rapid-aging childhood disease) at the University of Maryland, scientist Kan Cao discovered that Methylene Blue continuously cycles to support cellular defense and energy. It continuously stimulates skin cells to produce collagen and elastin while extending the healthy lifespan of the cells themselves. The Benefits: Unlike traditional anti-aging ingredients like retinol—which can encourage cell death—Methylene Blue actively repairs DNA damage, reduces oxidative stress, and significantly boosts skin hydration and firmness. Product Line: Bluelene offers a wide range of products tailored to all ages, from Gen-Zers preventing damage to older demographics focusing on deep anti-aging. The line features bestsellers like their Daily Moisturizer, Eye Cream, and an elasticity cream specifically formulated to maintain skin structure.

Folks, there's never a shortage of material when Leftism decides to put on a full-court press of crazy. Today's no different.We start with former NFL linebacker Jason Short, now accused of being a racist. In this day and age that charge gets tossed around like a bad handoff on fourth-and-one. Buckle up—we're going to take a look at this one because, trust me, the laughs are already writing themselves.Then there's Andrew Gillum, the man who came within a whisker of becoming governor of Florida. He just got himself arrested for dope. I'm not saying the state dodged a bullet… but did Florida dodge a bullet or WHAT? We'll check the scoreboard on what he's been up to since that narrow loss to DeSantis and see how the “almost governor” chapter is playing out.Over on the international side, Iran is back doing what Iran does best—acting like the neighborhood bully who keeps getting surprised when somebody finally punches back. This country has been a rolling disaster for decades, and I'm glad the guy in charge right now isn't treating them like a diplomatic science project. President Trump is putting another whoopin' on these folks, and he's calling them exactly what they are: liars and crazy. [X] SB – Pres Trump calls Iranians liarsIran's apparent game plan? Stretch this thing out until the midterms so Democrats can use it as campaign fuel. Good luck with that strategy.Word is Trump's also been giving Italian Prime Minister Meloni the business. That's not going to end well for her. Expect the back-channel calls to start immediately and a very public olive branch to show up in the next couple of weeks. She'll figure it out.Meanwhile, Trump is out here doing what he does—kicking over tables and making people deal with the consequences.In Florida a federal judge just reversed a ruling from Judge Sparkle Sooknanan—yes, Sparkle—who had blocked the federal government from using SSN searches and bulk uploads to verify citizenship on voter rolls. That roadblock just got removed. At the same time we're finally deporting people who've been treating America like an all-you-can-eat buffet they never intended to pay for.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When Betrayal Hits the Body: Sleep, Stress, Hormones & Healing With Karyn Shanks, MD Betrayal doesn't just affect your heart and mind — it affects your body too. In this compassionate conversation, Lora sits down with physician and functional medicine expert Dr. Karyn Shanks to explore the very real physical impact of betrayal trauma, chronic stress, and emotional overwhelm. Together, they discuss how trauma affects sleep, hormones, inflammation, energy, digestion, nervous system regulation, and overall health — and why these responses are not signs that you're weak or broken, but signs that your body is trying to protect you. This episode also explores self-compassion, the stories women carry around productivity and worthiness, and how healing begins when we stop fighting our bodies and start listening to them with curiosity and care. Top 3 Takeaways Betrayal trauma affects the entire body — including sleep, hormones, digestion, energy, and nervous system regulation. Your body is not betraying you. Many physical symptoms are intelligent survival responses. Healing does not require perfection. Small moments of rest, nourishment, support, and compassion matter deeply. Favorite Quote “Your body isn't broken. It's trying to protect you.” “You don't need to rush your healing. But you do need to take care of yourself first.” About Karyn Shanks KARYN SHANKS MD is a physician, author, and teacher who helps clients recover their lives from chronic complex Illness—a journey she's walked herself. Her work integrates the sciences of directable human potential—epigenetics, neuroplasticity, systems-based functional medicine, and transformational psychology—with the lived wisdom that safety, compassion, and story are the true foundations of healing. Over four decades, she's learned one enduring truth: everyone can heal, and the best medicine comes from within.  She is the author of Heal—A Nine-Stage Roadmap to Recover Energy and The Wisdom of COVID-19—How to Rejuvenate, Reclaim Hope, and Heal in the New Post-Pandemic World.

Just stop for a moment and take in what's happening across the country right now. Conservatism isn't merely resurging — it's conducting a full forensic audit on the left's greatest hits, and the findings are hilarious.Start with the good stuff. Trump Accounts are live, giving kids — especially black and brown kids — a real shot at building generational wealth. The same guy the media spent eight years calling a raging racist is out here potentially turning minority children into millionaires. And what will the Democrats do once those kids cash in? Tax the hell out of them to fund another round of drag queen story hours and “equity” consultants. It's the circle of leftist life: Trump builds the ladder, Democrats show up to kick it over and charge rent on the rungs.Speaking of people who think they're above the law, meet Zohran Mamdani, the mayor who announced he won't let ICE arrest illegal immigrants in his city. Trump's reply was chef's kiss: “Then we'll arrest him.” The irony is thicker than Newsom's hair gel. The sanctuary-city tough guy who wants to shield lawbreakers from federal enforcement suddenly discovers that “sanctuary” doesn't come with diplomatic immunity for himself. Try playing border cop from city hall and see how fast the feds flip the script.Team Trump is also cleaning house on the judicial side. Articles of impeachment have been filed against foreign-born activist Judge Sparkle Sooknanan for blocking efforts to keep illegal immigrants from voting. Sparkle. A federal judge named Sparkle. Sounds less like jurisprudence and more like the headliner at a Reno casino revue. The left spent years screaming about “threats to democracy,” yet here they are defending judges who weaponize the bench to protect non-citizen voting. The hypocrisy is so thick you could spread it on toast.Now for RINO theater. Mitch McConnell has finally been exposed as the political corpse he's been for years. The establishment kept him upright like a Weekend at Bernie's routine — or should we call it Weekend at Biden's? Now sources confirm he's braindead and on life support. With actual Americans running things, his wife is suddenly getting the full investigative treatment.

How do you choose the right OB-GYN before you're pregnant? Whether you're trying to conceive naturally, planning IVF, or already thinking about starting a family, choosing the right obstetrician is one of the most important decisions you'll make. In this episode, you'll learn the questions to ask, when to start looking for an OB-GYN, how to advocate for yourself throughout pregnancy, and what makes pregnancy care different for IVF patients. In this episode, I'm joined by one my favorite OB-GYNs, Dr. Justin Thompson, to talk about his journey into obstetrics and what every patient should know before choosing the doctor who will care for them during pregnancy and delivery. Justin and I dig into what it really takes to find the right obstetrician (spoiler: don't wait until you're pregnant!), how he creates a safe and positive birth experience, the unique considerations for patients who conceived through IVF, and why patient experience should be a bigger priority in healthcare. We also discuss physician burnout, the future of obstetrics, and practical ways to advocate for yourself and your growing family. If you're planning a pregnancy, going through IVF, or simply want to make informed decisions about your pregnancy care, this episode is packed with practical advice. ✅️In this episode, we cover: - Why you should start looking for an OB-GYN before you're even pregnant - Questions to ask when interviewing potential obstetricians - Why "meet and greet" appointments have disappeared and how to get one anyway - How Dr. Thompson limits his patient load to provide better care - What makes a birth experience safe, positive, and low-stress for both mom and baby - The "Sparkle checklist" and other ways patients can advocate for themselves - Special considerations for IVF pregnancies vs. non-IVF pregnancies - The future of obstetrics and why patient experience needs to be prioritized
