On today's episode of She Believed She Could™, host Allison Walsh welcomes Jessica Galo, Director of Specialty Care at AdventHealth for Children. With over 16 years of experience in pediatric care and a background in social work, Jessica has dedicated her career to supporting families facing the challenges of both physical and mental health.Jessica oversees the Be a Mindleader initiative, a community-wide effort powered by AdventHealth for Children and Heart of Florida United Way. This movement encourages open conversations about mental health, equips parents and educators with actionable tools, and empowers kids to step into leadership roles as advocates for themselves and their peers. Together, Allison and Jessica discuss:The rising pediatric mental health crisis and the importance of early action. How Be a Mindleader is reducing stigma and creating safe spaces for conversations at home, in schools, and across communities. The importance of community collaboration in making resources accessible for families. The growth of the Mindleader Ambassador Program and why peer leadership is so powerful. Expanding support through multilingual resources and grassroots partnerships across Central Florida. Listeners will also hear about real success stories, such as how AdventHealth's embedded mental health counselors in primary care practices are helping families uncover the root causes of children's struggles—including bullying and anxiety—and connecting them with the right support. This episode delivers inspiration, practical resources, and a reminder that one conversation can change, or even save, a life.Memorable MomentsOn starting the movement: “This idea to have a stigma reduction campaign—or destigmatization campaign—which is what the Be a Mindleader movement is, really bubbled up… If you can have conversations when things are not in crisis, when they're maybe littler feelings, then that allows you to have those bigger conversations later when the feelings are bigger and the stakes are higher.” On pandemic lessons: “The pandemic really shone a light on the impact to not only adults and mental health, but kids and mental health and well-being… that kind of was a spark to really get the attention of people that needed to be paying attention, including the healthcare world, but also donors, people in the community.” On community reach: “This is the first time in AdventHealth history where we have had a campaign in three different languages out in our community, and really targeted and meant to support the community.” On everyday parenting: “Car rides are a great time for us to connect with our kids. All of a sudden, they start opening up… And so it's really just being intentional about providing that time, providing that space.” On empowering youth: “Being a part of the ambassador program, it allows a kiddo to say, ‘I am a Mindleader'… And kids are so excited to do this work.” About Jessica GaloJessica Galo serves as the Director of Specialty Care at AdventHealth for Children, where she has spent more than 16 years leading efforts to support children with complex healthcare needs and their families. Trained as a social worker, Jessica has a passion for addressing the ripple effects of both physical and mental health challenges.She leads the Be a Mindleader initiative, a groundbreaking campaign in partnership with Heart of Florida United Way that equips parents, educators, and kids with resources to strengthen mental wellness and remove the stigma around asking for help.Jessica is also a proud mom of two and is passionate about teaching parents how to create intentional moments of connection with their children, fostering resilience and emotional well-being.Resources & LinksConnect with Allison: www.allisonwalshconsulting.comSubscribe to the Podcast: https://pod.link/1505347834Learn more about AdventHealth for Women: www.AdventHealthforwomen.comGet involved with Be a Mindleader: http://beamindleader.com/https://www.facebook.com/LifeAtAdventHealthCFL/https://www.instagram.com/lifeatadventhealthcfl/https://www.linkedin.com/company/adventhealthcfl/ Connect with AllisonInterested in working together?

In honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, Tara sits down with psychologist and author Jessica Zucker, founder of the viral #IHadAMiscarriage movement, to discuss the profound impact of sharing personal stories about miscarriage and women's health. Together, they unpack how storytelling can be both a form of healing and a catalyst for cultural change. Tara shares how Jessica's work personally impacted her and gave her the confidence to share with her own story of loss. From breaking the silence around pregnancy loss to challenging long-held stigmas, Tara and Jessica explore how vulnerability can create connection and why open, honest conversations are essential for women everywhere. Their discussion explores the modern realities of motherhood, including the pressures shaped by social media, the influence of cultural expectations, and the importance of raising daughters who feel empowered to speak openly about their bodies and emotions. Ultimately, this episode is a call to normalize women's health conversations, celebrate the strength in shared experience, and remind listeners that no one has to navigate these challenges alone.

Stigma eli häpeäleima viittaa ilmiöön, jossa henkilöön liitetään taustan, elämäntilanteen tai ominaisuuden vuoksi kielteinen leima. Esimerkkejä tästä ilmiöstä voi olla vaikka se, että työttömyyttä pidetään automaattisesti yksilön omana vikana tai että tietyistä mielenterveyden häiriöistä kärsivien ihmisten ajatellaan olevan vaarallisia. Tällaiset vahingolliset ja usein harhaanjohtavat stereotypiat syrjivät ja asettavat ihmiset eriarvoiseen asemaan. Sosiologiassa stigma jäsennetään nykyään usein niin, että huomio kiinnittyy leimatun yksilön tai ihmisryhmän sijaan niihin sosiaalisiin prosesseihin, jotka luovat ja ylläpitävät stigmaa. Stigmaan liittyviä psykologisia ja kognitiivisia prosesseja on yritetty selittää mm. evoluutioteoreettisesta näkökulmasta. Jaksossa avataan stigmaa ilmiönä ja tutustutaan stigman eri lajeihin. Lisäksi kuulet Suomessa vaikuttaneesta Liikalihavuuden vastustamisyhdistyksestä, joka pyrki aktiivisesti liittämään ylipainoon häpeällisiä mielikuvia. Haastateltavina ovat Itä-Suomen yliopiston projektitutkija Essi Rovamo, sekä lihavuuden historiaan perehtynyt Oulun yliopiston tutkija Eve-Riina Hyrkäs. Toimittaja on Juuso Pekkinen Äänisuunnittelija jaksossa on Matias Puumala

Send us a textIn a healthcare system that routinely dismisses, blames, and denies treatment to fat patients, it's easy to doubt whether choosing to stay fat is the right decision. But here's the truth: you deserve a doctor who listens, believes, and validates you—regardless of your size. You have the absolute right to refuse to be weighed, to refuse weight loss, and to demand treatment without prerequisites. The ethics are clear, even when the reality feels impossible. This episode is your reminder that you're making the right choice, and that the fight for dignified healthcare is both justified and winnable. Make sure to get your copy of the Stop Dreading Doctor's Appointments toolkit. Got a question for the next podcast?

This week we are talking the outcome of the PLE's that happened over the past weekend. We give our 2 cents on what we thought and what could be better. We also took the show on the road to watch local Indy show SSW Suplex the “stigma”. Here what we have to say about that.

Prenups aren't romantic, but they are powerful. In this episode, NY matrimonial attorney Evan Schein explains what a prenup can and cannot do, why early conversations matter, and how precise drafting prevents costly fights later. We talk disclosure, fairness, and how to keep agreements current as life changes. What you'll learn What a prenup is, and isn't: A financial agreement signed before marriage that can cover assets, debt, and spousal support. In New York, it cannot set child support, kid expenses, custody, or parenting terms. Disclosure that holds up: Why both partners should list assets, accounts, businesses, and premarital property with as much detail as possible. Separate vs. marital property: How to define each, and why you must specify how income from a separate business is treated during marriage. Fairness and enforceability: Factors courts look at later, including independent counsel, full disclosure, and whether terms were unconscionable then or now. Avoiding the “muddy middle”: Clear drafting prevents contradictions and vague catch-all clauses that derail enforcement. Pressure is a red flag: Don't sign because the date is set. Start early, get your own lawyer, and understand real-life implications. Amend as life changes: You can update with a postnup or amend the prenup. Revisit every 3 to 5 years or after major life events. Start the conversation sooner: Talk money, lifestyle, goals, and expectations before venues are booked. With the right strategy, you can protect love and money, reduce conflict, and set expectations that age well. You don't have to figure this out alone.

Under President Donald Trump and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the federal government is putting a lot of attention on autism. Scientists and doctors criticized Trump's debunked statements about the causes of autism from a press conference he held earlier this week. Advocates of autistic people and their families are also raising concerns about the way the president talks about autism. The Autism Society of Minnesota released a statement Wednesday calling this language dehumanizing and harmful. The federal rhetoric comes as autism centers in Minnesota are under scrutiny for fraud. Federal prosecutors on Wednesday charged the owner of an autism treatment clinic with stealing $14 million from a state program that funds services for young people with autism spectrum disorder.Joining MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about this is the Autism Society of Minnesota's executive director Ellie Wilson and communications director Zephyr James, who was diagnosed with autism as an adult.

Redefined:Ending Menstrual Stigma at Home: muallimah Farhana Hathurani by Radio Islam

CELÝ ROZHOVOR V DÉLCE 53 MIN. JEN NA ⁠HTTPS://HEROHERO.CO/CESTMIR⁠⁠⁠⁠ A ⁠HTTPS://FORENDORS.CZ/CESTMIROrnella Koktová se už dávno nesnaží obhajovat před těmi, kdo ji mají zafixovanou jen jako bulvární postavičku. „Časem se to celkově lepší, ale kdo má pevný názor, tomu to stejně nevymluvíte. A kdo se umí podívat i z jiného úhlu, ten to uvidí jinak,“ říká podnikatelka a spoluautorka podcastu s Agátou Hanychovou. Sama přiznává, že bulvár jí v minulosti ubližoval, dnes ho ale dokáže využít – ať už pro byznys, nebo k tomu, aby upozornila na příběhy, které by jinak zapadly. „Na nás vydělávají celé roky. Teď si z toho dokážeme vzít i my, a někdy je to vlastně i zábava,“ dodává k úspěšnému podcastu. Za sebou má přitom složité dětství i komplikovaný vztah s matkou. „Už jsem umrtvená, kdybych to brala vážně, zbláznila bych se,“ vysvětluje. Velký tlak zažívala i v devatenácti, kdy byla těhotná, maturovala a zároveň čelila obrovskému mediálnímu zájmu kvůli vztahu s podnikatelem Josefem Koktou. „Byla to strašná doba. Dokonce jsem přemýšlela, jestli neskočím ze skály na Divoké Šárce. Pak jsem si ale řekla, že to zvládnu. Vždycky jsem si o sobě myslela, že jsem silná,“ říká otevřeně. Dnes s manželem vychovává tři děti, mluví o těžkých porodech i období vyhoření, kdy se cítila v úspěšném podnikání i vztahu prázdná. Koktová ale také hovoří o strachu, že kvůli pracovnímu vytížení nebude „dokonalou mámou“. „Čtete to na sítích – když je žena jenom doma s dítětem, tak je neschopná a když moc pracuje, tak je ‚zlá' workoholička. Tohle všechno se ve mně pere,“ popisuje podcasterka tlaky ve veřejném prostoru a dodává, že se svým dětem snaží zajistit „bezpečné hnízdo“. Nejstarší syn Quentin má pravděpodobně Aspergerův syndrom a Koktová popisuje, jak se učí komunikovat s dítětem, které přemýšlí a reaguje jinak než většina vrstevníků. Přesto mluví o rodině jako o svém smyslu života, ale přiznává i chvíle, kdy s manželem Josefem Koktou měli na účtu „poslední tisícovku“. Jak se jí daří vyrovnávat s tlakem veřejnosti i s vlastními pochybnostmi? Jak balancuje mezi podnikáním, mateřstvím a partnerským vztahem? A jak se žije ženě, o níž se v mládí psalo na titulních stranách, ale která dnes sama určuje, co a jak sdílí? Pusťte si celý rozhovor.

Hosts: Dr. Ashlee Gethner, LCSW – Child of a Police Officer Jennifer Woosley Saylor, LPCC S – Child of a Police Officer In this heartfelt follow-up to their interview with Marian Crossgrove, Jennifer and Ashlee dive deep into the often-overlooked topic of substance abuse in the first responder community. With no guest this week, the hosts reflect on Marian’s story of resilience, recovery, and hope. They use her journey as a springboard for a candid discussion about why substance use is so common among first responders, how it impacts families, and what real recovery can look like. Key Discussion Points: Marian’s Inspiring Comeback: Marian’s story of losing her identity, seeking help, and returning to the first responder field offers hope to those who may feel isolated by substance abuse. Cultural Normalization of Alcohol: The hosts discuss how drinking is woven into the fabric of first responder culture as a means of celebration, coping, camaraderie, and the slippery slope it can create. Family Perspectives: Ashlee and Jennifer describe personal experiences growing up in families where drinking was normalized, and how family members can play a crucial role in identifying when substance use becomes a problem. Defining Addiction: Jennifer breaks down how addiction is identified, emphasizing the importance of looking at functioning and not just frequency or quantity of use. They highlight the clinical criteria and how family concern is a significant indicator. Genetics, Trauma, and Coping: The discussion covers how genetics, trauma exposure, and lack of healthy coping mechanisms can all intersect to increase the risk of substance abuse among first responders. Shame, Stigma & Department Culture: There’s an honest exploration of the double standard within some departmentswhere drinking is both encouraged and shamed, and how this adds complexity to getting help. Moving Toward Wellness: Both hosts stress the importance of departments understanding their resources, building peer support, and knowing treatment options because being prepared can save careers and lives. The Complexity of Recovery: Recovery from substance abuse isn’t easy, especially in a culture where drinking is prevalent. Jennifer and Ashlee share insights on the dedication required for recovery and the ongoing journey of maintaining wellness. Resources and Recommendations: The hosts encourage listeners to explore resources like Alcoholics Anonymous, peer support teams, and to approach the issue proactively within their departments. They remind families and departments to stay educated and ready to help.

Mental health and substance use have been impacting CRNAs and SRNAs, but we've come a long way in recognizing and addressing these challenges thanks to organizations like the Parkdale Center for Professionals. This episode is a powerful one centered on healing, growth, and the critical role of peer support.

Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

 FUBU, BRAVO, CNN, Champion of Change ~National Suicide Prevention Week, an annual week-long campaign in the United States to inform and engage health professionals and the general public about suicide prevention/warning signs of suicideA Noted Film Director, Hezues R, who's been applauded by The U.S. President of the United States & worked with the likes of  Ciroc Vodka, Russell Simmons on successful media campaigns, He addresses the issue of mental health, through a movie called "Suicide Saint".Through all of this madness is one issue that has plagued people of color with very few having the courage to address – mental health. The World Health Organization (WHO) states over 800,000 people commit suicide every year – that's one person every forty seconds. Also, the National Council for Behavioral Health notes that 46% of adults in the USA experience mental illness. In communities of color, according to the non-profit community organization, Mental Health America, out of 13% of Black Americans in the USA (according to the Census Bureau), 16% reported having mental illness – that's over 7 million people (more than the overall populations of Chicago, Philadelphia and Houston combined). Finally, the Center for Disease Control published that suicides and attempted suicides cost the nation almost $70 billion per year in lifetime medical and work-loss costs alone.Not many filmmakers have been honored by one President of the United States, let alone two. Then again Hezues R isn't your average filmmaker, as none other share the combination of his adversity and accolades , all the more reason why the entertainment industry is taking notice of this film protégé's next project, which he claims will be his masterpiece: SUICIDE SAINT.If you know Hezues R, then you've likely been inspired, as his own life is bigger than a movie. At 22 years old, he survived a barrage of bullets fired at him point blank 22 times by three would-be assailants His survival is nothing short of a miracle but still not as miraculous as his meteoric rise in entertainment - from high school dropout and drug dealer to self-made creative titan. No college, mentor, backers or connections - just a relentless work ethic and pure undeniable talent. From creating the official fragrance for the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton to running Sean P. Diddy Combs' advertising campaigns (Ciroc, Sean John , Deleon) as an executive producer, while finding creative ways to give back and interject social impact in his content, like the critically acclaimed film, “April Showers.” With suicide rates rapidly increasing and almost half of adults experiencing mental illness, Hezues R declares that “Rome is burning and as a society we're not giving enough concern to the media we create - which influences how we see ourselves and each other” His mission is to save lives by making the film “Suicide Saint” and in the process, change the protocol of Hollywood. Hezues R believes in art over algorithms and that films shouldn't just be made for profit but the added value of social good and the sake of creating something beautiful and inspiring. Hezues R gained fast followers, such as the United Nations, as they've selected his film as the sole movie they're endorsing in the International 40 Days Safer Cities initiative- with “Suicide Saint” being day #20 which also falls on Oct 10th - World Mental Health Day.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASJoin me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Adrienne Caldwell, author of Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines, for a direct conversation about growing up with parental schizophrenia, the realities of trauma, and what resilience actually looks like day-to-day. Without sensationalizing, Adrienne unpacks the stereotypes around schizophrenia, the impact of untreated mental illness on families, and the small steps that move a person from surviving to rebuilding. This episode offers grounded perspective, language that reduces stigma, and practical encouragement for anyone navigating trauma or supporting a loved one—tailored for audiences on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and search.   About the Guest  : Adrienne Caldwell is the author of Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines. Drawing from lived experience with family members who had schizophrenia and her own journey through adversity, Adrienne speaks candidly about safety, recovery, and the discipline of hope.   Key Takeaways: Schizophrenia is widely stereotyped; lived experience shows it as complex and varied, not inherently “dangerous.” Caregiver/child safety planning matters: identify safe adults, spaces, and routines—especially when symptoms like paranoia or isolation appear. Stigma drops when we separate a person's identity from a diagnosis and use precise, respectful language. Recovery is incremental: “one step” at a time creates distance from crisis and opens room for support and treatment. Community protection helps: teachers, relatives, social workers, and neighbors can serve as protective factors when home isn't stable. Trauma has long tails (e.g., anxiety, early depression, attachment challenges); naming it without shame is the start of healing. Boundaries are health tools: limiting volatile contact and seeking professional help can reduce harm. Hope is practical: small daily commitments (sleep, food, movement, therapy adherence, peer support) compound into stability. For loved ones: validate, don't minimize; encourage evaluation and evidence-based care; avoid labels that dehumanize. Content sensitivity: this episode references suicide in a non-instructional, recovery-oriented way; include crisis resources in show descriptions.   If you or someone you know is struggling or thinking about suicide, please know you are not alone.In the U.S., dial or text 988 to connect with the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline for free, confidential support, available 24/7.  If you're outside the U.S., please look up the local hotlines in your country or visit https://findahelpline.com/ for international crisis resources.   How to Connect with the Guest  : To connect with Adrienne Caldwell, search for her book “Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines” and her website - https://www.unbrokencaldwell.com     Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?
