This week on Mum's The Word, Georgia Jones and Kelsey Parker are back for a honest catch-up… and this one goes a little deeper than usual.Kelsey opens up about the fourth anniversary of Tom's passing and why the entire month of March feels overwhelming: from Brain Tumour Awareness Month to birthdays, Mother's Day, and the emotional weight that comes with it all.She shares the reality of grief four years on, the pressure of public remembrance, and the small but powerful moments that still hit hardest.Meanwhile, Georgia reflects on loss in her own life, the strange emotions tied to memories, and the unexpected ways social media, even a trending song, can bring everything rushing back.But it's not all heavy.The pair balance it out with the everyday chaos of mum life from school swimming lessons (and Georgia's very real fear of swimming pool floors) to Easter holiday panic, juggling work with kids at home, and the ongoing debate of whether we're all just running on empty.Plus, “We Listen & We Don't Judge” is back, with more relatable parenting confessions, and the usual mix of laughter, honesty, and moments that will have you thinking, “same.”From grief and healing to verrucas, Crocs and complete life overwhelm… this is motherhood in all its messy reality.Grab a cuppa, get comfy, and join us for another episode of Mum's The WordA Create Podcast Hosted on Acast.

Michael Phelps BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Michael Phelps has been making headlines on multiple fronts over the past few days, blending heartfelt moments with blunt commentary and, once again, showing off his playful side with NFL stars. Earlier this week, news broke that Michael is mourning the loss of Brian Campbell, his former Olympic massage therapist, who passed away suddenly from a heart attack at age 68. Phelps paid tribute to Campbell on Instagram, reminiscing about their twenty-year friendship and expressing gratitude for Campbell's unwavering support during his record-breaking Olympic career. This somber moment has resonated within the broader swimming community, echoing through Team USA's official statements and recollections shared by coach Bob Bowman, underscoring how pivotal Campbell was in Phelps's journey according to People.But just as Phelps honored the past, he made waves in the present by publicly criticizing Team USA Swimming alongside fellow Olympian Ryan Lochte. Frustrated by what they saw as underperformance at the 2025 World Aquatics Championships, Phelps shared on Instagram a pointed A.I.-created funeral image for USA Swimming, complete with a faux tombstone marking the end of glory days. His accompanying comment asked pointedly if this was the wake-up call the organization needed. The post, which quickly drew attention from fans and analysts, highlights Phelps's willingness to speak candidly about the sport and indicates an ongoing concern for the future of American swimming dominance. Yahoo Sports and other outlets picked up this direct call for accountability, marking it as a notable public stance for the champion who rarely pulls punches.On a lighter note, Phelps jumped into pop culture headlines when Baltimore Ravens players revealed on Instagram that many of them never learned how to swim and personally requested lessons from the Olympic great during their summer training camp. Phelps, a Baltimore native and lifelong Ravens fan, enthusiastically agreed in the comments: "I got yall!!! Let's do it!!" The exchange—complete with supportive quips from celebrities like Flavor Flav—quickly went viral, signaling that Phelps remains a prominent figure in both sports and social media, ready to mentor the next generation whether on land or in water, as reported by People and seen across Instagram.There have been no new business ventures or endorsements publicly disclosed in the last few days, and aside from some talk-show snippets and a steady stream of fan engagement online, the focus has been on Phelps's advocacy for better standards in American swimming and his community ties. Speculation occasionally surfaces about future endeavors, but as of now, his actions and comments are what's truly stirring conversation.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Michael Phelps BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Michael Phelps has been everywhere these past few days. He made a splash at the Ryder Cup at Bethpage State Park, Long Island, cozying up on the PGA's official Instagram and attending the star-studded Breakfast at Bethpage event alongside other celebrities like Colin Jost and chef José Andrés. Phelps, who calls golf his post-swimming passion, gave us a glimpse into his chilled-out mornings by posting “Good Times” on Instagram. NHL.com caught him rubbing shoulders with players from the New York Islanders on the course, adding another layer to his legendary crossover appeal.On the business front, Phelps is putting his money where his mouth—and face—is, recently investing in Baltimore-based 800razors.com. He's now a shareholder and spokesperson, touting the brand's razors for giving him the close, comfortable shave he needs, whether in or out of the pool. More importantly, he was drawn to the company's commitment to philanthropy, supporting Baltimore's Chimes nonprofit with opportunities for people with developmental disabilities, according to Technical.ly.But it's not just about sports and shaving. Michael's charitable work is continuing front and center, with the Michael Phelps Foundation out there teaching kids to swim and promoting wellness and self-esteem. This week, social media buzzed as Phelps promised he'd join Baltimore Ravens players at training camp to help some of them learn to swim, after a video posted by cornerback Marlon Humphrey revealed a third of the team can't swim. Not content with just giving lessons, Phelps offered enthusiastic support via Instagram, reinforcing his mission to fight drowning—a cause he's championed since retiring.Phelps also remains a coveted speaker on the business conference circuit. The Power Platform Community Conference just announced him as the featured guest keynote speaker at its Las Vegas event in late October, a gig that promises to be seen by thousands, cementing his reputation not just as a sports icon but a leader in healthy living, water safety, and the “pursuit of dreams,” as described in the Microsoft Dynamics World preview.Fans on Threads and Instagram can't get enough of his everyday relatability, from confirming his love for fried eggs, omelets, and ham-and-cheese sandwiches to advocating for plant-based diets and Silk milk alternatives. And next week, look for his branded Chilly GOAT Cold Tubs at the Masters Fitness Championship—he's now a major stakeholder in the recovery tech game.In conclusion, the headlines make it clear: whether teaching NFL pros to swim, golfing with celebrities, investing in startup razor companies, or headlining major tech conferences, Michael Phelps is using his platform to stay relevant, influential, and just a little bit unpredictable.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
Michael Phelps BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Fresh headlines and social media chatter over the past week have once again placed Michael Phelps squarely in the public eye, not for a record-breaking swim but for yet another blend of mentorship, business innovation, and enduring impact. Michael Phelps answered a unique call from Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey, who posted a widely shared video on social media with teammates asking for swimming lessons. Not one to turn down the chance to promote water safety, the Olympic legend publicly accepted via Instagram, confirming he'll be visiting Ravens training camp and helping players learn to swim in their new recovery pool. Local tie-ins always amplify his appearances, especially in Baltimore, where Phelps is beloved not just for his Olympic feats but also for his rooting interest in the Ravens and his steady involvement at home games. Answering that call fits the mission of the Michael Phelps Foundation, which has made water-safety education a top post-career priority, directly addressing the startling statistic the Ravens cited that one in three players can't swim, while also earning praise for real community impact as reported by Yahoo Sports.Business-wise, Phelps remains in the financial press as a headline case study in post-athletic reinvention. The newsletter Idée Fixe just highlighted Phelps as an early investor in Unrivalled, a new women's 3x3 basketball league, alongside stars like Coco Gauff and Alex Morgan. This move was showcased as part of a growing trend of world-class athletes using their capital and brand to influence not just sponsorship but the governance and direction of sports infrastructure and media. Phelps' involvement in sports investment and tech platforms like Swim.com, as well as his prominent partnership with Under Armour, continue to set new standards for retired athletes turning their fame into equity and business leadership. As explored in recent business roundups, these active ventures—and his ongoing endorsements—keep him at the front edge of what some call the golden age of athlete-investor entrepreneurship.Social media still regularly references Phelps as the archetype for athlete mental health advocacy, a space where he remains visible. His engagement with the Boys and Girls Clubs of America—a major nonprofit event in Los Angeles this week honored him as a past spokesperson and highlighted his role as a role model for today's youth leaders—keeps the family man and mental health champion squarely in the public sphere, per organizational press releases.From mentoring NFL stars who can't swim to shaping the business side of pro sports and serving as a perennial inspiration at nonprofit galas, the Phelps orbit continues expanding. Each of these moments speaks to a legacy evolving in real time—underscored by a week of positive press, strategic investment headlines, and viral social touches that keep his influence as unsinkable as ever.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast! If you haven't listened to Part 1 of this conversation on autism and water safety yet, be sure to go check that out first—it's episode #125. In that episode, I sat down with Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in working with autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert with experience at FEMA and the CDC. Together, we shared eye-opening statistics and essential first steps families can take to begin protecting their children around water. In this episode—Part 2—we're diving even deeper. You'll hear more from Dayna and Andy about why swim lessons alone aren't enough, how to use visual supports to reinforce water safety, and the critical role of community awareness in preventing drowning. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, teacher, or therapist, this conversation is full of actionable strategies and resources to help keep autistic children safe. Let's get started. Bio Andy Roszak, JD, MPA, EMT-Paramedic is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Institute for Childhood Preparedness, where he leads efforts to strengthen emergency planning, disaster recovery, and resilience across early childhood and community-based settings. With more than 20 years of experience in public health, emergency management, and health policy, Andrew has worked at the local, state, federal, and nonprofit levels-supporting initiatives that help communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from crises. Andy is a frequent contributor and subject matter expert for Sesame Street in Communities, where he supports efforts around preparedness, disaster response, and resilience for families and caregivers. A former firefighter, paramedic, and hazardous materials technician, he has also served as a Health Policy Fellow in the U.S. Senate, a senior advisor at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and as a Senior Preparedness Advisor supporting Super Bowl 46 and the Indianapolis 500. Andy is an award-winning author of the Preparing for the Unexpected book series, and his work has been recognized by organizations including the Red Cross, the City of El Paso, and Sesame Street, where he was named a Sesame Street Hero. His focus is on practical, real-world strategies to help individuals, organizations, and communities be better prepared for whatever challenges may come.

Dayna is on a MISSION to educate and empower parents with information, strategies and hands on tools to help them keep their children safer in and around water because we MUST eradicate childhood drowning. The autism community saw more drownings in 2024 than in any year prior and that has intensified Dayna's commitment to reach more parents with her message and her methods.

Visual cues and predictable routines enhance learning for children. Creating a waiting area can significantly reduce drowning risks. Parents must be fully attentive when children are around water. Consistency in teaching water safety is key to success. Using a water safety kit can help establish safe practices. Children can learn to wait before entering water environments. Swim lessons should focus on both water safety and swimming skills. Parents should evaluate their home environment for water hazards. Empowering parents with knowledge is essential for preventing drownings.

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast. Today, I'm joined by two incredible guests—Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in teaching autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert who has worked with FEMA and the CDC. Together, we're diving into a topic that's incredibly important—and honestly, one that doesn't get talked about enough: water safety for autistic children. As a speech-language pathologist and someone who's worked closely with autistic children for over two decades, I've seen just how real the risks are. Drowning is one of the leading causes of accidental death for autistic kids, and it's something we have to bring more awareness to. In this episode, we're not just sharing facts and statistics—we're getting personal and practical. Dayna and Andy offer eye-opening insight and simple, proactive strategies that parents, caregivers, and educators can use right away. We'll talk about risk assessments, layers of protection, communication tools, and the role of community awareness in preventing tragedies. My goal with this conversation is to empower you with actionable steps so you can feel more confident and prepared when it comes to water safety. Let's work together to protect and support our little learners—not just in the classroom, but in every part of their lives.

Autistic children are 160 times more likely to drown than their neurotypical peers. 50% of autistic children have a tendency to wander or elope.

Here, we unpack Andrea's detailed discussion on the barriers of protection, the Virginia Graham Baker Act, the concept of the 'Sober Swimmer,' and the myriad of other safety devices that can prevent accidents and save lives.The Four Barriers of ProtectionAndrea begins her monologue by outlining the four fundamental barriers of protection every pool owner should implement:Door Alarms: These are essential for any home with direct access to a pool. Door alarms alert homeowners when a door leading to the pool is opened, providing an immediate warning that someone may be entering the pool area unsupervised. Andrea emphasizes the importance of ensuring these alarms are loud enough to be heard throughout the house and are always in working order.Pool Fencing: A sturdy, four-sided fence around the pool acts as a physical barrier, preventing unauthorized access. Andrea highlights that the fence should be at least four feet high, with self-closing and self-latching gates that open outward, away from the pool. This setup makes it more difficult for small children to enter the pool area without supervision.Safety Covers: Pool safety covers are a robust solution to keep the pool inaccessible when not in use. These covers can support the weight of a child or even an adult, preventing accidental drownings. Andrea advises choosing covers that meet the ASTM International standards for safety, ensuring they provide the highest level of protection.Pool Alarms: These devices are designed to alert homeowners when something or someone enters the water unexpectedly. There are various types of pool alarms, including surface wave sensors and sub-surface disturbance sensors. Andrea stresses the importance of regular maintenance and testing of these alarms to ensure they function correctly when needed most.Swimming Lessons: While swimming lessons are crucial, Andrea argues they should be part of a broader safety strategy rather than the sole focus. Teaching children and adults how to swim can significantly reduce the risk of drowning, but it's equally important to combine this knowledge with other safety measures.The Virginia Graham Baker ActAndrea dives into the Virginia Graham Baker Act, a pivotal piece of legislation aimed at enhancing pool safety. Named after a young girl who tragically drowned due to a faulty drain cover, this act mandates specific safety standards for pool and spa drains to prevent entrapment.Andrea explains that the act requires:All public pools and spas to have anti-entrapment drain covers.Pools with a single main drain must have an additional device or system designed to prevent entrapment, such as a safety vacuum release system (SVRS), suction-limiting vent system, gravity drainage system, or automatic pump shut-off system.
