Journalist Virginia Sole-Smith joins us to discuss how GLP-1 hype has changed the conversation about diet culture, the importance of body autonomy, how “bro” diet culture became public policy, how she handles haters, the “fed is best” approach to parenting, and lots more. Behind the paywall, she shares her experience of weighing herself for the first time in years, what it's been like to date for the first time in a larger body, how she's changed her relationship to cardio, and more. This episode is cross-posted from our other podcast, Rethinking Wellness. As a journalist, Virginia Sole-Smith has reported from kitchen tables, graduated from beauty school, and gone swimming in a mermaid's tail. Virginia's latest book, Fat Talk: Parenting in the Age of Diet Culture, is a New York Times bestseller that investigates how the "war on childhood obesity" has caused kids to absorb a daily onslaught of body shame from peers, school, diet culture, and families—and offers research-based strategies to help parents name and navigate the anti-fat bias that infiltrates our schools, doctor's offices and dinner tables. Virginia began her career in women's magazines, alternatively challenging beauty standards and gender norms, and upholding diet culture through her health, nutrition and fitness reporting. This work led to her first book, The Eating Instinct: Food Culture, Body Image and Guilt in America, in which Virginia explored how we can reconnect to our bodies in a culture that's constantly giving us so many mixed messages about both those things. Virginia's work appears in the New York Times Magazine, Scientific American, and many other publications. She writes the newsletter Burnt Toast, where she explores anti-fat bias, diet culture, parenting and health, and also hosts the Burnt Toast Podcast. Virginia lives in New York's Hudson Valley with her two kids, two cats, a dog, and way too many houseplants. Check out Christy's three books, Anti-Diet, The Wellness Trap, and The Emotional Eating, Chronic Dieting, Binge Eating & Body Image Workbook for a deeper dive into the topics covered on the pod.

Professor French Tells What Gen Z Can Teach All of Us! What happens when one of America's top legal minds steps back into the classroom—only to be schooled by Gen Z? New York Times columnist and Good Faith contributor David French joins Curtis Chang to reflect on what a year of teaching college students taught him about faith, over-parenting, and the future of American democracy. Together, they explore whether this rising generation is rejecting political tribalism in favor of ethical engagement—or simply afraid to speak up in polarized times. Could Gen Z's quiet shift reshape our fractured public square?

Learn how poetry can help your brain handle stress, process feelings, and spark insight.Summary: This episode of The Science of Happiness is part of our series Using Art As Medicine. We explore poetry, one of the oldest artforms, powers our brains, calms our nervous systems, and reduces anxiety by opening doors into our psyche. Whether you're reading or writing it, elements like rhythm, metaphor and rhyme improve memory, cognition and even self-esteem. This episode is made possible through the generous support of the John Templeton Foundation.How To Do This Practice: Find Your Moment: Notice the time of day when you feel closest to yourself. It might be early morning before the world wakes up, or another quiet pocket of time when your thoughts are unfiltered and your heart is open. Set the Scene: Create an atmosphere that supports you. Play music that matches your mood or inspires imagination. Let it be soft and inviting, not distracting, just enough to signal to your body that this is a sacred moment. Choose Your Tools: Use what feels natural. Journal, laptop, scrap paper, napkin, the format doesn't matter. What matters is that you're ready to begin. Write Without Interruption: Set a timer for 5 to 10 minutes. Let your pen or fingers move freely. Don't stop, don't edit, and don't worry about making sense, just see what comes. Welcome the Unsaid: Allow what's hidden, half-formed, or surprising to emerge. Let It Be What It Is: When the timer ends, pause. Don't rush to interpret or fix your words. You've just made contact with something real, let that be enough. Scroll down for a transcription of this episode.YRSA DALEY-WARD is an award-winning poet and author.

Original Air Date: December 13, 2017 Sebastian Junger, the New York Times bestselling author of “The Perfect Storm” and “War,” discusses his newest book “Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging.” Sebastian challenges us to rethink some of our culture's most fundamental ideas about purpose and prosperity. He says, “It's about what we can learn from tribal societies about loyalty, belonging and the eternal human quest for meaning.” Read more about identity and belonging in the January 2018 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine.
This episode is about a seemingly simple question: Was there a Joe Biden cover-up?Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson's new book argues there was. “Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again” details how Biden's top advisers closed the circle around him and tried to conceal the extent of his decline.But I think the story here is more complicated. If Biden's top advisers were misleading the public, I think they were also lying to themselves. And if there was a cover-up, it had a lot of holes; voters had been telling pollsters they were worried about Biden's age for years.So I wanted to have Tapper on the show to talk about the discoveries in his book, but also about some of the bigger questions raised by the Democratic Party's decision to almost renominate Biden: How do you see what is right in front of your eyes? How do you avoid letting loyalty to a person or a party blind you?This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“Democrats Have a Better Option Than Biden” by Ezra Klein“Behind Closed Doors, Biden Shows Signs of Slipping” by Annie Linskey and Siobhan HughesBook Recommendations:Lorne by Susan MorrisonHitler's People by Richard EvansThe Holy Roller by Andy Samberg, Joe Trohman and Rick RemenderThoughts?

Katherine Bernard (KB) Olsen is a never-mo (never Mormon) — but also one of the most devoted fans of Mormon Stories Podcast. A queer, secular journalist with deep Jewish roots and a high-fashion pedigree, Katherine has spent over 20 years captivated by the LDS Church — despite never being religious herself. In her first-ever full-length interview about her life story, she opens up about her lifelong curiosity with Mormonism, identity, belief, and American culture.KB's impressive journalism career includes work at Vogue, New York Times, and other top-tier New York publications. After moving from Maryland to attend NYU for journalism, she found herself drawn not only to art and culture — but also to spirituality, history, and the paradoxes of organized religion. Over the years, her interest in Mormonism became a deep and serious intellectual pursuit.What You'll Hear in This Interview:-Her upbringing in a secular household in Maryland-Her exploration of Jewish identity and eventual conversion-Her first exposure to Mormonism through South Park, Big Love, and The Book of Mormon musical-Her emotional journey coming out as gay in a non-supportive environment-Her reflections on shame, logic, identity, and community-Her nuanced take on Joseph Smith, the Book of Mormon, and Mormon reality TV-Her insights into conditioning, religious extremism, and spiritual seekingThis episode is a masterclass in curiosity — how someone with no personal ties to the LDS Church became one of its most thoughtful outside observers. KB explores Mormonism not as a critic or a believer, but as a seeker with a journalist's eye.Watch this episode on YouTube here.___________________Mormon Stories Thanks Our Generous Donors!Help us continue to deliver quality content by becoming a donor today:One-time or recurring donation through DonorboxSupport us on PatreonPayPalVenmoOur Platforms:YouTubePatreonSpotifyApple PodcastsSocial Media:Insta: @mormstoriesTikTok: @mormonstoriespodcastJoin the DiscordContact us:MormonStories@gmail.comPO Box 171085, Salt Lake City, UT 84117

Sunnie (29) and Jazmyne (30) are a queer couple trying to build their life together—buy a house, bring a child into their family, and create long-term financial security. But with just one primary income and a major surgery planned for next year, every decision feels high stakes. They earn a combined $180,000 and just bought their first home; but between rising costs, paycheck-to-paycheck living, and intense pressure on Sunnie as the breadwinner, their financial conversations often swing from optimistic to explosive. With no shared plan, no savings for a wedding, and looming fears about safety and stability, can they align on a vision for their future—and build a financial plan that supports it?

Today's discussion includes topics of a sexual nature. If this content isn't suitable for you or if you're listening in a shared space, please take caution and care while listening. Hey, Heal Squad! Today's episode is about to get educationally hot and steamy. We're thrilled to welcome back Dr. Laura Berman, a New York Times best-selling author, podcast host, and relationship expert who's spent 30 years helping people master love, intimacy, and connection—mind, body, and soul. And trust us, Maria is going there with all the juicy questions on sex, love, and relationships! Dr. Laura's new book Sex Magic reveals so much more too, but here she's telling us how to use sexual energy to manifest your dream life (yes, really!), why porn and social media (aka a high school reunion on steroids) may be hurting your love life, and the shocking reason serial cheaters keep cheating. Hint, Hint: it's not about sex! Plus the big debate: Is monogamy still realistic? Dr. Laura's take may surprise you. If you're looking for real, no-BS relationship advice, this episode is an absolute must-listen! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS: Sex & Manifestation - Manifesting during sex works because it's an intense energetic exchange that can be harnessed to create desired emotional states. Infidelity & Social Media –Infidelity is often driven more by emotional disconnection, validation, and opportunity rather than just physical attraction. Social media has amplified temptation by making past connections more accessible. Passion Fades, But Connection Can Evolve – Long-term relationships transition from intense passion to deeper attachment. Many people seek external excitement (like porn or affairs) when they don't nurture intimacy within their relationship.

From March 6, 1990: Oprah and Dr. Paul Pearsall, neuropsychologist and author of the New York Times best-seller, The Power of the Family, take the audience through a ‘rituals test' to assess their family health. Dr. Pearsall discusses why families are failing, the importance of developing the “us” quotient and how just 15 minutes of spending time together as a family unit can make a difference. Dr. Paul Pearsall passed away in 2007.
After Russia's full scale invasion of Ukraine, the U.S. rushed to create a secret center that set targets for the Ukrainians to destroy. But the counteroffensive of 2023 failed to achieve its goals.
