Day 1 of the Mental Health Novena with Fr. Jonathan Meyer. Today we pray for an end to the stigma surrounding mental health and ask the intercession of St. Dymphna, patroness of those with mental health struggles.

In this Maitri podcast episode, Chanchal Garg opens up about the spiritual and sexual abuse that shook her identity and forced her to confront a life shaped by duty and sacrifice. She courageously shares her journey of personal transformation—unearthing hidden truths that have been buried under cultural obligations, spiritual trauma, and the silence often expected of women.This moving conversation offers courage and hope for anyone navigating cultural pressures, intergenerational conflicts, or the weight of victim-blaming.Chanchal Garg is a speaker, author, executive coach, and conscious leadership facilitator. For over eight years, she has facilitated a course on interpersonal dynamics at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business. Chanchal is also the author of Unearthed: The Lies We Carry and the Truths They Bury.

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I, Rachel Wortman, dive into the often complex and emotionally charged topic of investing. We explore the multifaceted nature of investing, addressing the excitement, fear, and even guilt that can accompany discussions about wealth-building, especially within a Christian context. Many of us have been taught that accumulating wealth is not spiritual, but I challenge that notion by highlighting biblical principles that encourage us to multiply what we have rather than bury it. We begin by discussing the concept of "bread and seed" from 2 Corinthians 9:10, emphasizing that God provides for our immediate needs (the bread) while also giving us resources (the seed) to invest for future growth. I stress the importance of discerning what in our hands is meant for today versus what is intended for tomorrow, encouraging listeners to view their finances through a lens of stewardship rather than greed. Throughout the episode, I share my personal experiences and insights, while also acknowledging that I am not a financial expert. Instead, I aim to provide a spiritual and high-level perspective on investing.   Let's Connect!

Michelle opens by naming the belief so many of us absorbed early: smaller bodies are healthier bodies. She walks through where that belief came from (BMI's rise to medical dominance in the 1970s, the 1990s “obesity epidemic” framing) and why repetition isn't truth. BMI was built for population averages, not diagnosis; over time it became a proxy for health that crowded out far more meaningful indicators.From there, she unpacks the evidence in plain language. Large studies that account for key confounders—cardiorespiratory fitness, nutrition patterns, sleep, socioeconomic status, access to healthcare, and exposure to stigma—show that the apparent link between higher weight and poor health outcomes shrinks or disappears. Michelle discusses meta-analyses, how methodological choices shape conclusions, and why “overweight” ranges often sit at the lowest all-cause mortality risk in U-shaped curves. She also highlights research showing that weight cycling (losing and regaining) is independently harmful, while behaviours like not smoking, moderate alcohol intake, regular movement, and abundant fruit/veg intake improve outcomes regardless of weight.A major throughline is weight stigma: shorter visits, misattributed symptoms, fewer screenings, delayed diagnoses, and avoidance of care. Stigma drives chronic stress, inflammation, and worse outcomes—and it hurts thinner patients, too, when clinicians assume thin = healthy and fail to screen. Michelle shares stories from the ER and a listener's letter that shifted her practice away from weight-centric care.The episode closes with a practical reframe: health is multidimensional—physical, mental, social, spiritual—and no single number (BMI, weight, waist) can capture it. A weight-inclusive approach centres what people can do and access today: nourishment, joyful movement, rest, stress care, connection, and equitable healthcare. Benefits accrue even if the scale never budges.In this episode, you'll hear:How BMI became medicalized—and why it's a poor stand-in for individual health.Why correlation ≠ causation and how confounders change the story on weight and risk.Evidence that behaviours and access matter more than body size for long-term outcomes.The harms of weight stigma in clinics and beyond (and how it affects all sizes).Why intentional weight loss doesn't produce durable health benefits for most—and how weight cycling increases risk.What a weight-inclusive care plan looks like in everyday life.Stay connectedIf this episode helped you rethink health beyond the scale, follow/subscribe so you don't miss the series finale next week.

In this crucial and eye-opening episode of the Gritty Nurse podcast with host Amie Archibald-Varley and guest host, Jordan Varley, they confront the hidden crisis of addiction within the healthcare industry. This is essential listening for nurses, physicians, social workers, and all healthcare professionals struggling with the stigma of substance abuse. I'll never forget my first exposure to addiction in the workplace—it was the epitome of a toxic culture. My then-boss shared a disgusting story about a former director allegedly found drunk under a desk, treating a colleague's pain as a vicious joke. I realized instantly that in this environment, no healthcare worker would ever feel safe coming forward. That betrayal of confidentiality and trust perfectly illustrated the profound stigma we're fighting. We delve into the alarming substance abuse statistics and share raw, personal stories that reveal the profound struggles faced by healthcare workers who are silently battling addiction. Our special guest, social worker Jordan, joins us to tear down the wall of shame and expose the systemic issues that often enable or worsen provider impairment. We address the pressures from leadership—the maligning manager or enabling system—that makes seeking addiction treatmentand achieving recovery so difficult. Tune in to understand why it's crucial for every hospital and clinic to champion healthcare worker recovery and create a culture that genuinely dedicates itself to saving the healers.

Send us a text We've been told our entire lives that losing weight will prevent health problems. But where did this belief come from? In this episode, I trace the shocking history of how insurance companies, pharmaceutical funding, and arbitrary statistical cut-offs created the mythical illness we now know as "ob*sity" crisis. From Quetelet's obsession with the "average man" to the International Ob*sity Task Force's pharmaceutical funding, I expose how we've been working off logical fallacies for over a century. There's no evidence that being fat causes health conditions, no evidence of a "healthy weight for height," and no evidence that weight loss improves health outcomes. It's time we stopped treating statistical artifacts as medical truth. Don't forget to order your copy of the Stop Dreading Doctor's Appointments toolkit.Got a question for the next podcast?

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?

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 episode is the fourth and final episode of a four part series on stigma.This episode is done in collaboration with Central Coast Overdose Prevention (CCODP) and was made possible by California Overdose Prevention Network Accelerator funding from the Public Health Institute's Center for Health Leadership and Impact.First responders face unique mental health challenges due to the high-stress nature of their work, but stigma often prevents them from seeking help when they're struggling. Dr. Casey Grover, firefighter/paramedic Jesse, and firefighter/paremedic Evan discuss the psychological toll of being the ones who save lives, including PTSD, addiction, and the struggle with vulnerability.We also hear from Dr. Reb Close, who worked as an Emergency Medicine physician for over 20 years.• First responders naturally prioritize others over themselves, often neglecting self-care• "Normalization of deviance" occurs when first responders gradually develop unhealthy coping mechanisms• PTSD is a permanent brain change that many first responders experience but fear admitting• Female first responders face additional challenges and scrutiny in male-dominated professions• The pressure to appear perfect creates barriers to seeking help, even when struggling severely• First responders often judge themselves more harshly than they judge others• Addiction can develop as a way to self-medicate trauma and stress• Recovery is possible when first responders become willing to be vulnerable and uncomfortable• Those with established careers have the social capital to break stigma by sharing their experiencesIf you're a first responder struggling with mental health or addiction issues, please know that help is available and seeking it early can prevent tremendous suffering. You are not alone, and recovery is possible.To Contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

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.
