This is part two of an interview with Anak Bayan Melbourne. If you haven't listened to part one, it might be helpful to go back and listen. Part one covers the waves of colonisation, the 1896 Revolution and the history and purpose of Anak Bayan as an organisation. Part two covers the Negros 19 Massacre, Worker Resistance, forced migration and australia's complicity.VO: The Philippines is in the top ten countries in the world for the worst working conditions. The Island of Negros is known as the sugar bowl of the Philippines for its fertile sugar plantations, however, the working class farmers of the island, like much of the Filipino population, see little of the benefit from these rich resources.On the 19th of April this year, the Armed Forces of the Philippines massacred 19 people on the Island of Negros Occidental. This wasn't the first massacre on the island, but this time there were two US citizens among them, meaning that the usually largely ignored violence against farmers organisations briefly attracted global attention.The Sunday Paper spoke to Meah, Secretariat of International Solidarity Work for Anak Bayan, and Sunday, Chairperson for Anak Bayan Melbourne, about the struggle of the working class in The Philippines. You can learn more about Anak Bayan on their socials, Bayan Aus or Anak Bayan Melbourne. Links in the show notes. If you aren't on this continent, look up your local chapter. Anak Bayan's current call to action is for Filipino youth to go home and serve the people.This episode was made on stolen Kulin land. Sovereignty was never ceded and colonial violence continues both here and in The Philippines, as does Indigenous Resistance.Thanks to JD Remitar for supplying the musicIn this episode you heard the tracks “Reklamo ng Reklamo” and “Pag-ibig Ay Rebolusyon” by JD Remitar The Sunday Paper Podcast is independent, not for profit and listener supported.Matt Chun is our Executive Producer.Interview support, research and fact checking by Preeshita ShahThe Sunday Paper podcast is recorded, edited and produced by Mell Chun.

Often, our most important growth comes from letting go of who we think we're supposed to be. And for many women, their 40s can be a transformative decade of reexamining long-held expectations and getting closer to who they really are. In this episode of Finding Brave, I have the pleasure of sitting down with journalist and author Stacey Lindsay to explore why this often misunderstood decade deserves a more honest and deep exploration. Stacey is the author of the new book Being 40: The Decade of Letting Go—and Embracing Who We Are and a senior editor at Maria Shriver's Sunday Paper. Through extensive research and personal reflection, Stacey explores why the 40s can be such a pivotal decade for women. In our conversation, Stacey shares what inspired her to write the book and why she became fascinated by women's experiences in their 40s. I'm truly honored to be featured in Stacey's important and eye-opening book. Today we discuss the courage required to tell the truth about our lives, the challenges of letting go of societal pressures, and the reality that this stage of life can be both difficult and deeply liberating. We explore the many transitions that often converge during this decade, from changing bodies and evolving careers to caregiving responsibilities and shifting personal priorities. Stacey also reflects on the importance of reconnecting with ourselves, embracing vulnerability, and finding comfort in the stories of others. At its heart, this conversation is about giving ourselves permission to live more authentically and release the expectations that no longer serve us. Tune in for an insightful and uplifting discussion about aging, identity, and what it means to fully embrace who you are becoming. Key Points From This Episode: Introducing Stacey Lindsay and her new book, Being 40. [01:59] What Stacey found most daunting about the writing process. [07:55] The inspiration behind Stacey's book: why she wanted to write about women in their 40s. [12:13] The expectations women carry and what becomes possible when they let them go. [17:58] What surprised Stacey most during her conversations with women. [19:54] How our mothers and early role models continue to shape us into midlife. [23:26] Why our culture is starving for warmth, connection, and genuine human interaction. [29:41] Stories of self-acceptance, letting go, and embracing who we are. [32:21] How women across generations are helping each other find greater clarity and self-acceptance.

I think the feminist movement goes through a different wave every day, right? We take three steps forward, two steps back, all of us, but we persevere." — Stacey Lindsay [0:12:51] "When we really look at the things that we've been carrying that never served us and will never serve us—ideas about how we should look, how we should be, how we should mother, how we should act—when we start to put those down, I found we actually free up a lot more energy to put toward our strength, to face the hard stuff, and then find more joy." — Stacey Lindsay [0:18:27] "Another thing I deeply hope somebody takes from this book is a companionship with oneself, ultimately. We can become cleaved from ourselves in many ways when we are checking all the boxes, thinking we're doing all the right things." — Stacey Lindsay [0:21:13] "What has gotten me closer to myself is the company of another woman's story. Sometimes that's through a movie, sometimes that's through a book, many times [it's] through a Mary Oliver poem." — Stacey Lindsay [0:21:45] "I finally embraced the fact that this is who I am, this is how I am, this is the way I operate. I don't want to apologize anymore. There's this radical coolness about this decade." — Stacey Lindsay [0:33:15] Watch our Finding Brave episodes on YouTube!

Today on the show we discuss why so many people feel trapped living a “should life,” how turning 40 can become a wake-up call instead of a crisis, the pressure around marriage, kids, career, and success, the complicated truth about choosing not to have children while still feeling grief and longing, why social media and dating apps can make people feel even more behind, and how getting quiet, listening to your body, and rebuilding self-worth can help you finally create a life that actually feels like your own and much more. ⚠ WELLNESS DISCLAIMER ⚠ Please be advised; the topics related to health and mental health in my content are for informational, discussion, and entertainment purposes only.

July 22, 2008KAREN PRESSLEY, a convert from the Church of Scientology to Biblical Christianity and Founder of Wings of Love Ministries will give her personal testimony: “ESCAPING SCIENTOLOGY: AN INSIDER'S TRUE STORY.” Prior to her 16-year involvement with the Church of Scientology, Karen worked as a Hollywood fashion designer, as well as a music publisher with her (then) husband Peter Schless. Their work included hit songs like “On the Wings of Love.” Their careers took a turn (early 1980's) when they fell prey to the deception of Scientology. After 16 years in Scientology, God's grace removed the veil of deception from Karen's eyes. After two prior unsuccessful attempts to escape (1990 and 1993), her third attempt in 1998 led to final disentanglement from the group, but resulted in ex-communication from her friends and divorce from her husband of 20 years. Grace also enabled her escape and miraculous freedom from the cult's entrapment—including her eventual discovery of the power of prayer and faith in Christ. Since Karen began her “new life” in 1998, she has traveled from coast to coast sharing the amazing story of her experiences within the Church of Scientology (1982-1998), her three escapes (final in 1998), and the challenges of rebuilding a new life after losing everything she had. Hers is a story of courage, hope, and building character through trials and perseverance. Reunited with her family in Atlanta, she has a new life: new career, resumed her college education, new marriage, and counts her losses as gain through her new found faith in God.With a passion to communicate and with boldness to share this story, she has been invited to speak around the country. Her story has touched the hearts of thousands at women's conferences, church and ministry events, youth groups, colleges and universities. Pieces of Karen's personal story as an ex-Scientologist who escaped and and found faith in Jesus Christ have aired on NBC Dateline, CNN (Paula Zahn segment), “Secrets d'Actualite” on M6 Network in Paris, and local Atlanta shows, as well as local and national radio shows. She's been interviewed by the Los Angeles Times, St. Petersburg Times, Atlanta's Sunday Paper, and many Christian publications including Baptist Press News, The Christian Index, Missions Mosaic, On Mission Magazine, LifeWay's Open Windows and more.

In this episode you'll learn: Why women's health needs a full-body reset, moving beyond "bikini medicine" to include brain, heart, immune, and metabolic health. How gaps in anatomy education leave women uninformed, even at advanced education levels, limiting body literacy and self-advocacy. Why women normalize serious symptoms like pain, heavy bleeding, and fatigue, and how this delays diagnosis and care. How to be heard in a short doctor visit by prioritizing and clearly reporting symptoms in advance. Why medical language still reflects gender bias, and how updating anatomical terms can improve understanding and care. What most UTI advice gets wrong, and why effective options like vaginal estrogen remain underused. The difference between screening and prevention in breast health, and why understanding lifetime risk matters beyond mammograms. How male-centered research has shaped women's medicine, and what new science is revealing about female-specific health differences. Why pushing through pain can worsen outcomes, increasing pain sensitivity and delaying proper treatment. How pain management in gynecology is finally changing, with growing recognition that procedures should not require suffering.

Today, I'm thrilled to welcome Meghan Rabbitt as my guest. Meghan is an award-winning journalist and the author of The New Rules of Women's Health: Your Guide to Thriving at Every Age. She specializes in women's health and wellness, and her work has appeared in several national publications, including Oprah Daily, Prevention, Maria Shriver's Sunday Paper, and others. Meghan is known for translating and clarifying complex medical and scientific topics into actionable information. In our conversation today, we dive into her new book and explore the process of writing a 700-page guide. We discuss how the old rules of women's health have often failed, and Meghan shares her hope that things will shift. We cover underrecognized midlife issues such as heart disease, the power of knowledge, reframing the aging process, and how the lack of research funding and a paternalistic system contributed to the lack of information on how women's bodies age. We also examine the influence of social media, navigating the medical system, advocacy, the gut-brain-hormone connection, and the crucial role of fiber, and Meghan emphasizes why every woman's story matters. Meghan's book is incredibly valuable, as it speaks to women of all ages, from young adults to those in later life. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Why personal context matters when following nutrition advice on social media The value of seeking multiple clinician opinions when facing health choices Improving your communication with clinicians to help them understand your priorities and concerns An essential approach to diet and lifestyle Underrecognized midlife issues, like heart disease, and why they are often overlooked in women's health How midlife changes in estrogen are linked with alterations in the microbiome and astrobolome Understanding the gut-brain-hormone connection can help clarify your symptoms and guide your lifestyle choices. Gut health and why fiber is important Knowledge, advocacy, and reframing aging empower women to navigate the medical system and make better-informed decisions Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community: The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow Cynthia's Menopause Gut Book is on presale now!
