We find ourselves in divided and frightening times. How do we stay grounded in who we want to be? And how can each of us work toward a better world?Psychologist Traci Stein gets personal about navigating this moment while staying true to a core belief: real change begins within each one of us. When everything feels overwhelming, our individual clarity, compassion and action matter more than we think. How we extend basic dignity to everyone, even across our deepest differences, is what will create a better world. The episode invites us to reexamine: Who do we want to be right now? And what does that require of us?For more on Traci Stein, visit: https://www.drtracistein.com/

Send us a textWhen a child is emotionally dysregulated, it's easy for parents to feel unsure, exhausted, or like they're constantly reacting instead of responding.In this episode of Mother's Guide Through Autism, host Brigitte Shipman sits down with Sara Lewis Hartley, a healthcare leader with over 20 years of experience and the author of the Purposefully Me children's book series, to explore what emotional regulation really means—and how parents can support it without burning themselves out.This conversation goes beyond surface-level tips. Sara shares practical, compassionate insights about creating emotional safety at home, why regulation starts with the parent, and how understanding emotions—rather than trying to control them—can change the dynamic between parent and child.

Welcome back to Activate Now with Lucy Colangelo.Today's episode came together in the most spontaneous, unexpected way — and I'm so glad it did. Recently, I presented my ShineOn Digital Reset Programs to parent council leaders from across the province in partnership with OAPCE, the Ontario Association of Parents in Catholic Education. In that audience was Greg Jones, a dad who really connected with the message. Afterward, he visited my website, discovered the Great Discovery Project Community on Skool, and joined. We started chatting inside the community, one conversation led to another… and before we knew it, we decided to hit record.This episode is completely unscripted — just two people digging into what's happening with kids and technology, the pressures families are feeling, and why a digital reset is becoming a critical part of supporting young people today.Let's jump in.__ABOUT ACTIVATE NOW WITH LUCY COLANGELOActivate Now is a podcast about awakening potential, building strong identities, and helping young people thrive in a rapidly changing world.

It's easy to blame algorithms and AI for corroding our information ecosystem, but our guest this week argues that we have a just as much, if not more of a role to play in creating the environment we want to see. Ray Block Jr. is the Brown-McCourtney Career Development Professor at Penn State and the Michael D. Rich Chair in Countering Truth Decay and RAND Corporation. He joins us to discuss the new report, "Rebalancing the Information Ecosystem and Renewing Shared Societal Commitments for Information Use," published by RAND earlier this fall. Block's scholarly research includes community organizing and social identity. You'll hear that perspective come through in this conversation, which focuses on how social fabric — not fact checking or tech policy —is the key to creating a healthy information environment and, in turn, a healthy democracy.

Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Kevin Jones to the Restorative Works! Podcast.  Kevin joins us to explore how vulnerability and authenticity transform leadership, build stronger teams, and repair workplace divides, especially in times of conflict. Through real stories, Kevin illustrates how restorative circles and authentic conversations can turn tension into trust. From school districts integrating restorative practices-based language into policy to juvenile justice departments adopting restorative practices frameworks, Kevin shows what happens when organizations lean into the heart of this work. He reminds us that restorative practices belong everywhere — from boardrooms to sports teams to family Zoom calls, emphasizing how this framework helps communities move from reacting to crises toward proactively creating cultures of care and belonging.  Kevin is a lecturer at the IIRP and has spent more than 40 years working in the fields of social services, mental health, and education philosophy, with particular emphasis on working with youth and their families. He honed his practice through direct care and as an administrator in residential treatment programs, group homes, mental health organizations, and alternative schools. As a retired administrator, Kevin continues to work with Central Illinois at the Regional Office of Education #17 to support the development of restorative leadership teams. He has explicit experience training law enforcement, school resource officers, government officials, community leaders, security officers, and educators throughout Central Illinois, the United States, and internationally. He designs and implements professional development opportunities as well as coursework in the areas of applied restorative practice that include topics such as social-emotional learning, trauma-informed, social justice, diversity, equity, inclusion, connecting communities, classroom transformation, leadership, and more. Kevin earned a Master of Science in Restorative Practices from the IIRP and a Master of Science in Educational Leadership, Organizational Policy/Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion from the University of Illinois.   Tune in to hear practical wisdom and heartfelt insight on what it means to show up proactively and authentically, at work, at home, and with yourself.  

We have been going mainly chronologically thus far, and with 2026 being the 250th anniversary of our country, we decided to mix in some different types of episodes to recognize where we have been, along with reminders of how we got there, and what we need to do to keep it going!   Today's podcast title, It Starts with Us: Keeping Democracy Alive for the Next 250 Years, delves into the responsibilities we have as citizens to stay educated and remember that the power is in the hands of the people. We assign that power to our elected officials in order for them to represent US! Today, Jeananne is joined by Ira Chaleff   Ira and Jeananne discuss open dialogue with people who have differing views, not being closed off to other opinions, and more importantly, educating yourself with the viewpoints from the political left, center, and right.   There is always more to learn, talk to you soon! -Jimmy & Jean

What if the way we move through the world—our energy, awareness, and communication—has the power to shape how others move, too? This week on The Found Podcast, I'm sitting down with Terryn Drieling of The Good Movement Draws Good Movement Podcast to explore what she calls “good movement”—a principle inspired by her life on ranches in the Sandhills of Nebraska and rooted in stockmanship, connection, and emotional awareness. Terryn believes that, just like animals respond to calm, intentional movement, humans thrive when we learn to regulate our energy, validate others, and lead with love instead of fear. Through her coaching, podcast, and workshops, she helps rural folks improve communication, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with themselves—all while honoring the unique rhythms of small-town life. Our conversation dives deep into friendship, resilience, and the importance of self-understanding in order to create “good movement” in every relationship you're part of: at home, at work, and in your community. What You'll Hear in This Episode: How Terryn's ranching roots inspired her “good movement” philosophy. Why grit and resilience aren't the same and how to cultivate both. The difference between validation and agreement, and why it matters in relationships. How love- and trust-based communication creates deeper connection than fear-based compliance. The power of emotional awareness and self-regulation (and what animals can teach us about it). Terryn's personal story of friendship, healing, and mental-emotional growth through her cancer journey. Key Quote: “Good movement starts with us. When we understand ourselves, we can show up with more grace, compassion, and awareness—and that draws good movement from everyone around us.” Links: Visit Terryn's Website Listen to her podcast Connect on IG

Are you ready for a wake-up call? Property management is evolving at lightning speed, and if we don't make a shift now, we risk being left behind. But here's the thing—change doesn't start with the market, the clients, or the economy. It starts with us. As property managers, we hold the power to shape the future of our businesses, our teams, and our industry.No more waiting for the perfect moment—the moment is now. From embracing new technologies to rethinking outdated processes, the time to transform is today. Taking ownership of our actions and mindset is the key to creating powerful shifts in our success. It's time to step up and lead the change!In this episode of the Property Management Podcast, I share a personal update about my recent move from my long-time family home to a rental property, and the emotional challenges that came with it. As I reflect on my own experience, I also think about the struggles we face in the property management industry, particularly around burnout and shifting expectations. It's clear to me that the key to overcoming these challenges is empathy, accountability, and personal growth.I truly believe that meaningful change starts from within. As property managers, we have the power to lead with compassion and self-awareness, not just for our clients but for ourselves and our teams as well. I invite you to connect with me on social media, leave a review, and share this podcast so we can work together to foster a positive shift in our industry."I want to be really real with you, as I always am. I didn't always know how to be a leader. Heck, I didn't even know property management when I first started. I absolutely, 100% winged it. And guess what? I failed a lot. The revolving door of property managers was a reality in my business because I didn't know how to lead, manage, or even how to manage myself, if I'm completely honest."Kylie WalkerWe explore:Personal life update regarding a move from a family home to a rental property.Emotional challenges associated with downsizing and adapting to a new living environment.Reflections on the property management industry and its current state.Challenges faced by property managers, including burnout and lack of support.Evolving expectations and responsibilities of property managers.Importance of empathy, accountability, and personal growth in property management.The significance of human-to-human connections in the industry.The role of individual accountability in improving the image of property managers.Encouragement for property managers to reflect on their motivations and lead with compassion.Call to action for audience engagement and support for the podcast.Kylie's Resources:Property Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchool Digital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschool That Property Mum Courses: https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/courses/ The PM Accelerate Membership: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/accelerate Book a Strategy Call with Kylie:...

In this powerful and heartfelt episode of Happy Hour with Bundle Birth Nurses, Sarah Lavonne sits down with the brilliant and unapologetically real Dr. Monica McLemore for a conversation that will shift the way you think about nursing, reproductive health, and your role in this work. From their first meeting to this moment of connection, Sarah and Monica reflect on humility, curiosity, and the humanity at the core of nursing. Dr. McLemore shares her journey—starting as born a preemie to becoming a nationally respected nurse scientist, public health expert, and fierce advocate for reproductive justice. Monica calls out the myth of political polarity to issuing a bold challenge for nurses to build something better. She urges us to stop playing small, activate our gifts, and remember that nursing is—and always has been—a political act. Whether you're a preceptor, student, bedside nurse, or leader, this episode will wake you up, call you in, and remind you of the shared work ahead.Helpful Links!Mentorship ProgramAmerican Nurses Association's Code of EthicsChanel Albert-Porsche, founder of Ancient Song Doula Services

In this episode reissue, Candace shared the final part in our series, “Strong Faith, Contagious Hope, and Enduring Love”. She spoke to the role that we all play in elevating those around us and contributing into the spaces where we live. God never meant for blessings to stop with us, but that we are to be salt and light wherever we go. In Proverbs 11:10-11 it says,When the righteous prosper, the city rejoices; when the wicked perish, there are shouts of joy. Through the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, but by the mouth of the wicked it is destroyed.As we think about and pray for our city, let's ask ourselves:1. What do I have to GIVE?2. What can CONTRIBUTE?3. What can I SACRIFICE?We live in an incredible area that is in the middle of it's story right now. Let's love our city well by being people who are willing to take responsibility, contribute, and are willing to sacrifice for those around them.We pray for our city, the people who live here, the land, and for wisdom and guidance as leaders establish vision, culture and values here.May you be blessed and prosper so that those around you experience the blessing and are lifted up!For more info, you can go to our website, check us out on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube.

In today's episode, we're diving into a topic that's so important for families navigating the ups and downs of childhood and parenting: behavioral and Executive Function challenges in kids.I had the pleasure of inviting back to Focus Forward the wonderful Dr. Nerissa Bauer, a developmental pediatrician with a wealth of knowledge and compassion for helping families thrive. Nerissa has been a great partner with us at Beyond BookSmart and I'm so happy to be able to share her wisdom with you all again. Listen today to hear us explore the messages behind children's behaviors, the connection between emotional regulation and executive function, and how parents and caregivers can approach challenges with curiosity, collaboration, and love. Dr. Bauer shared invaluable insights, from understanding the “why” behind behaviors to the power of the pause and how we can model self-regulation for ourselves and for our kids.

If you're listening to this podcast, you're probably concerned by the level of polarization we're seeing in societies around the world.  We can point fingers at social media, the news media, political parties, fear mongering leaders, poor education, broken political systems… the list is long. The divides can seem so vast, the problems so huge. It's easy to retreat into a huddle with people who see the world the same way you do. But our guest for this episode, Columbia University psychology and education professor and author Peter T. Coleman, says there are things each of us can do to help heal these societal wounds. And he says the press and media can play an important role in decreasing polarization. That's the subject of his latest book, The Way Out: How to Overcome Toxic Polarization. Coleman outlines evidence-based practices that you can do on your own- or with a group- to help recalibrate assumptions, and re-create bonds with people you disagree with. Coleman also partnered with the organization Starts With Us to turn the lessons from the book into an online program, called The Polarization Detox Challenge. It's like an exercise routine, for strengthening your compassion muscles. The book is focused on the United States, but the exercises can be done anywhere. This episode originally published in January 2023. Follow Peter T.
