What are some of the aspects of the human body that point to the design of God?; For example, how does the function of your eyes, lungs and even the function of your individual cells point to God as an intelligent designer? How does religious observance affect a person's physical and mental health? We'll answer these questions and more with our guest, Dr. Rick Zimmerman, a physician and an infectious disease and vaccine specialist at the Univ of Pittsburgh Medical School. Dr. Rick Zimmerman is Professor in the Department of Family Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh Medical School and is affiliated with the school's Center for Vaccine Research.

Emmy-nominated costume designer Virginia B. Johnson grew up with a “dragon mother,” which shaped her structured habits and her ability to work smoothly amid chaos. Her childhood was filled with intergenerational connection and crafting - learning sewing, embroidery, knitting and crocheting from a “flock of Filipina aunties,” which fostered not only a sense of community, but a foundational skill for her eventual career. Although she was a pre-med major in college, a serendipitous side gig in a college theater costume shop sparked a passionate pivot to a career that now includes critically-acclaimed and award-winning projects like Hillbilly Elegy and American Primeval, and the opportunity to lead teams in the art of deploying deep craft and rigorous, reverent cultural authenticity to drive powerful storytelling.

Stephanie welcomes Elizabeth Urbanowitz to discuss how we can equip our children with a biblical understanding of sexuality and gender. Discover the tools you need to disciple your child with purpose and grace! Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design is a thoughtful, timely, and practical resource that will coach you through some of the most foundational conversations you can have with your children. It's more crucial than ever to talk with our children about God's design for sexuality and gender. As our culture's understanding of human identity shifts, Christian parents, grandparents, and mentors are called to be the primary voices shaping the next generation's worldview on these sensitive topics. Ten years ago, few would have imagined discussing sexuality or gender identity with young children. However, today's culture often defines people by their desires and feelings, leading to confusion over what it means to be human. The Christian response is to provide clarity rooted in God's Word—especially around key biblical themes such as being made in God's image (Psalm 139) and understanding redemption through Christ. Elizabeth Urbanowitz emphasizes starting conversations on sexuality and gender with children as young as four or five years old. The earlier parents introduce these topics, the more their children see them as trustworthy “experts” (she calls this the “Founder's Effect”). Just as a child memorizes basic math facts before tackling algebra, simple biblical truths learned early become anchors for discerning truth from cultural messages later in life. Children encounter issues like sexual abuse, pornography, and gender confusion younger than ever. Even adults without children are likely to influence young people as teachers, mentors, or relatives. It's essential to have clear, simple language to explain: Bodies are valuable and designed by God. Private parts deserve protection and privacy. If children disclose uncomfortable experiences, adults should listen, seek understanding, and reinforce these truths with compassion. Elizabeth draws everything back to scripture. The Bible presents God as our Designer, and His design (for our bodies, marriage, sexuality) is the wise and loving blueprint for human flourishing. When addressing hard questions—like same-sex marriage, gender identity, or masturbation—parents are encouraged to reference what God has revealed, not just their opinions. To help children remember key truths, parents can teach simple catechism-like phrases. For example, “Marriage is one man and one woman becoming one flesh for life,” or “God designed us as male or female—God's design is good.” These become invaluable tools when children are confronted with cultural lies. A major point is that kindness doesn't mean agreement. Being compassionate means loving others and telling the truth (not just making them feel good). Children should be taught to respect and care for everyone, including those living differently, without affirming what's unbiblical. For parents of older children or teens, start with prayer, then listen to what they've already learned. Acknowledge any shortcomings, gently offer biblical truths, and focus on building a trusting, ongoing dialogue. God's Word is sufficient for every generation. Parents, family members, and the faith community play vital roles in helping kids navigate a confusing world. Start early, speak simply, root everything in scripture, and model truth with kindness and courage. Take time this week to consider what “building a biblical foundation” practically looks like for the children in your life. What is one conversation you can start, or one phrase you can teach, to prepare them for these challenging but crucial topics? MORE ABOUT “HELPING YOUR KIDS KNOW GOD'S GOOD DESIGN” Discipling Your Child One Conversation at a Time In today's pervasively secular culture, it's more essential than ever to guide your children toward a biblical worldview on all issues―including the complex topics of sexuality and gender. But as a parent, how do you have these discussions in an informed, age-appropriate, and Christ-centered way?  This how-to handbook equips you to talk about sex, gender, and the Bible with children between the ages of 4 and 12 with confidence and nuance. Inside you'll find biblically grounded answers to some of Christian parents' most common questions, including When should I first have the sex talk with my child? How do I explain sexual sin to my child? How do I teach my child to love others without affirming another person's sin? How do I talk with my child about what the Bible teaches about same-sex relationships? How do I handle the fear that I'll have these conversations the wrong way? Discover the tools you need to disciple your child with purpose and grace! Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design is a thoughtful, timely, and practical resource that will coach you through some of the most foundational conversations you can have with your children. MORE ABOUT ELIZABETH URBANOWITZ Elizabeth Urbanowicz is a follower of Jesus Christ who is passionate about equipping kids to understand the truth of the Christian worldview. She holds a B.S. from Gordon College in Elementary Education and Spanish, an M.S.Ed. from Northern Illinois University in Literacy Education, and an M.A. in Christian Apologetics from Biola University. Elizabeth began her professional career as an elementary teacher in a Christian school. Several years into her teaching experience, Elizabeth realized that despite being raised in Christian homes, attending a Christian school, and being active in church, her students thought more like the culture than like Christ. Elizabeth began searching for curricular materials that would equip her students to think critically, helping them discover that Christianity is the worldview that lines up with reality. After not finding any materials that met this need, she began creating a curriculum for her students. Elizabeth first taught Foundation Comparative Worldview Curriculum as an after-school class for third through fifth graders, and the results were incredible! Students were transformed from passive recipients of information to active evaluators of every message they receive. Parents and teachers alike noticed the impact these materials had on students' media consumption, academic achievement, and everyday habits. This transformation lasted beyond the elementary years and guided students' thinking in junior high and beyond. Elizabeth now works full-time on developing comparative worldview and apologetics resources for children. Her goal is to prepare the next generation to be lifelong critical thinkers and, most importantly, lifelong disciples of Jesus Christ. https://foundationworldview.com/about/meet-the-founder  We invite you to check out the first episode of each of our series, and decide which one you will want to start with.

Last week, I talked about invisible work, all of those small, well-intentioned tasks that quietly chip away at your profits. This week, I want to continue that conversation with one simple question: if you've switched to flat fees, are they actually flat enough? Because I see this all the time. Designers move away from hourly billings thinking, finally, no more time tracking, no more nickel and diming, no more surprises. But then the project ends, the designer is exhausted, the profits are thin, and they're wondering where all of their time went. And it's not that your number was wrong, it's that your flat fee wasn't flat enough.   Mentioned in this episode: Sign up for The Pricing Fix workshop on November 6th, 12:30 PM EST:  https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/the-pricing-fix Join the wait list for my course, The Designers Edge: https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/construction-management-interior-designers Access the full video interview with Elana Steele of Steele Appliance here: https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/appliance Sign up here to join my panel discussion at High Point: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/meet-the-podcasters-tickets-1657193372989?aff=oddtdtcreator Sign up for my weekly newsletter: https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/from-the-jobsite   Find the full shownotes at: https://devignierdesign.com/why-your-flat-fee-isnt-flat-enough

Designers, It's Time to JumpWhat to Do When Entry-Level Isn't There AnymoreThe path into the design industry has changed, and no one sent a memo.

It's about jumping the gap, and building the career that's waiting on the other side.Link to Article

Sweater season has arrived for many of us, so let's revisit a favorite episode from last 2023!Dani of Picnicwear joins Amanda to explain why (most) new sweaters are low quality, (near) future garbage (instead of future vintage).  It's a complicated tale of synthetic blends, increasing margin targets, and lower prices.  We'll explain how the fast fashion industry has kept prices low and profits high by swapping out yarns, cutting out details, and making copies of copies, while walking through the design process of most big retailers/brands. We will unpack why it's really difficult to find sweaters made of natural fibers.Amanda will explain how natural fibers aren't the "cure" for the impact of overconsumption.We will give you advice about how to choose the right sweater (hint: read those content labels).Dani will give you advice about how to care for your sweaters properly. We were inspired by Amanda Mull's piece for The Atlantic, Your Sweaters Are Garbage.

Il déclare n'avoir jamais voulu être designer.Il déclare aussi que ce métier peut vouloir dire tout et son contraire.Pourtant il a été élu designer de l'année 2024 et fait partie des rares créateurs français exposés au MoMA, au Centre Pompidou ou encore au Musée des Arts Décoratifs.Mais c'est surtout avec un objet, la Vasque Olympique de Paris 2024, que Mathieu Lehanneur a touché des millions de personnes à travers le monde.Il raconte dans cet épisode l'envers d'un projet classé secret, guidé uniquement par l'intuition, et ce moment suspendu où sa vasque s'est envolée pour la première fois, offrant une émotion à des millions de personnes.Mathieu revient sur :L'importance de comprendre les objets qui nous entourent et l'impact qu'ils peuvent avoir sur le mondePourquoi le plan B n'est pas une optionL'avant - après Paris 2024Plongez dans l'univers d'un créatif sans limites pour comprendre le monde et les objets qui nous entourent.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Prendre goût au travail00:12:52 : Comprendre les objets, c'est comprendre le monde00:21:57 : Le design est d'abord une question de sensations00:30:23 : Comment Ikea a changé notre rapport aux objets00:40:33 : Apprendre à vendre avant de savoir créer00:47:19 : L'art de convaincre00:54:55 : L'ambition vaut plus qu'un budget01:09:31 : Peut-on refuser les Jeux Olympiques ?01:15:33 : L'importance de se construire un double imaginaire01:24:35 : Le pire ennemi de la créativité01:36:56 : Créer pour toucher et transmettre des émotions01:44:35 : Le public choisit ce qui restera des JO de Paris 202401:57:44 : La vraie fonction d'un objet inutile02:07:12 : La réalité sur l'avant - après Paris 202402:18:13 : L'objet parfait existe-t-il ?02:31:26 : Comment aiguiser son œil artistique et sa créativitéLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #312 - Thierry Reboul - Directeur exécutif de Paris 2024 - Orchestrer l'événement du siècle : récit d'un créatif rebelleNous avons parlé de :Hôtel du Palais de BiarritzQu'est-ce que le surréalisme ?Greg LeMond au Tour de France 1989THX 1138 - Le premier filmLe cœur de l'église de Saint-Hilaire par Matthieu LehanneurLe design de la flèche de Notre-Dame de ParisLa Chambre claire, de Roland BarthesLes recommandations de lecture :Manifestes du surréalisme, de André BretonLa Chambre claire, de Roland BarthesVous pouvez contacter Mathieu sur Instagram.Un grand MERCI à nos sponsors : - SquareSpace : squarespace.com/doit- Qonto: https://qonto.com/r/2i7tk9 - Brevo: brevo.com/doit - eToro: https://bit.ly/3GTSh0k - Payfit: payfit.com - Club Med : clubmed.frVous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

On this week's show we look at some 1960s and 1970s TV shows that received their series finally in a movie at least ten years after going off the air. We also take a look at five home automation trends for this year and beyond. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: MTV is Shutting Down Its Last Music Channels, Marking the End of an Era Taylor Swift Eras Tour docuseries, concert film head to Disney+ Apple TV+ Is Getting Rid Of The Plus 47 Years Ago: Rescue from Gilligan's Island Makes TV History On October 14, 1978, television history was made with the premiere of Rescue from Gilligan's Island, the first-ever TV series adapted into a made-for-TV movie. Airing 47 years ago today, this film brought back the beloved cast of the iconic 1960s sitcom Gilligan's Island, reuniting fans with the stranded castaways for a nostalgic adventure. The movie picked up where the series left off, following the bumbling Gilligan and his fellow survivors as they finally escaped their tropical island—only to face new comedic challenges adjusting to modern life. Starring the original cast, including Bob Denver as Gilligan and Alan Hale Jr. as the Skipper, the film captured the charm and humor that made the show a cultural staple. This groundbreaking adaptation paved the way for future TV-to-movie transitions, proving that beloved series could find new life on the small screen. Rescue from Gilligan's Island remains a milestone in TV history, reminding us of the enduring appeal of these lovable castaways. Here are a few other series that got a series finale years after it's TV run ended: Star Trek (ended in 1969) - Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) – Relaunched the crew on a new mission, effectively serving as a big-screen continuation and soft finale to the original era's story. Get Smart (ended 1970) -  The Nude Bomb (1980) – Maxwell Smart returns for a solo mission against a mad bomber, providing a comedic capstone to his career. The Munsters (ended 1966) - Munsters' Revenge (1981 TV movie) – The family thwarts a crime ring, reuniting the original cast for a proper send-off. The Adams Family (ended 1966) - Halloween with the New Addams Family (1977 TV movie) – A reunion special where Gomez and Morticia host a haunted party, offering light-hearted closure. Five Smart Home Trends for 2025 and Beyond According to the National Association of Home Builders, two-thirds of consumers desire a connected home. Smart home technology is increasingly impacting property value while homes without such features may soon be worth less. At the annual CEDIA smart home technology expo in Denver, professionals like Kyle Steele, president of Global Wave Integration, and interior designer Toni Sabatino emphasized the importance of staying updated on smart home innovations. They both highlight insights from CEDIA and recent research, offering ideas for your smart home. Today we take a look at the five trends they see for 2025 and beyond. Increasing Seamless IntegrationFor the aesthetics committee, Smart home tech is evolving to blend invisibly into home aesthetics, with slimmer designs, refined finishes, and hidden features in shading, lighting, audio, and furnishings. This shift turns gadgets into design elements, like concealed speakers or artful LED walls, prioritizing user experience over visibility. But underneath it all, seamless integration will enable devices from various brands, such as lights, thermostats, cameras, and voice assistants, to work together as a unified system. This allows unified control via a single app or voice command, intuitive automation based on triggers and a smooth user experience with minimal setup, no delays, and reliable performance. New devices will integrate easily, and a robust network like Wi-Fi 6 supports the ecosystem, enabling complex routines regardless of device brands. Partnering ExpandsCollaborations between tech integrators and designers are growing to make solutions more accessible, especially for non-tech-savvy users like older homeowners. Designers act as bridges, explaining privacy-focused systems, while expos highlight products for storage, entertainment, and monitoring to enhance client value. Wellness TrendingHealth and wellness features are becoming mainstream, including circadian lighting, air/water purification, biophilic elements, and acoustic treatments. These systems promote energy-efficient, livable spaces aligned with natural rhythms, which may be a selling point for those focused on healthier home environments. Products such as smart scales, sleep analyzers, and blood pressure monitors will seamlessly integrate with home automation platforms enabling automations like adjusting room lighting based on sleep patterns detected by sleep sensors or dimming lights if weight trends indicate fatigue. Similarly,  on-demand ECG readings through their mobile app can connect to the automation system to send notifications to family members, doctors and in extreme cases to first responders creating a proactive smart home that responds to vital health data in real time. SecuritySecurity remains a top priority, driving demand for video doorbells, whole-house systems, and cybersecurity measures amid hacking risks. Industry reports project strong growth in global smart home security, urging professionals to educate homeowners on secure setups like strong passwords. Multi-TaskingProducts now multitask across needs like security, comfort, entertainment, and energy savings like smart shading for automated vacation modes or TVs that double as art displays like Samsung's The Frame. Emerging "smart surfaces," such as charging countertops, reflect this versatile, lifestyle-fitting approach.

The jewelry designer behind Taylor Swift's engagement ring, Kindred Lubeck makes her 1A debut and opens up about the piece that garnered global attention and her journey long before the overnight success.

In our culture, love gets defined a hundred different ways. Just look at the numbers: more than half of all songs ever written are about love, and over 100,000 films on IMDb are tagged as romance. From Marvel to Disney, everyone is trying to tell us what love is. The problem? Culture mostly tells us what love feels like and not what love actually is.That's where Scripture gives us clarity. In Genesis 1 and 2, God shows us that love, actually, has a Designer, and because God designed it, marriage has a design.Message 210.5.2025

Ever notice how a bit of white space makes everything feel clearer? Designers use it to make things pop. Our brains love it. Yet, as women business owners, we often overlook the importance of white space in our businesses and our lives. So in this episode of the HerBusiness podcast, we're talking about why white space is not a luxury — but a complete necessity if you want to grow a business that feels aligned and fulfilling. Here's What You'll Discover in This Episode:  How white space fuels your creativity, innovation, and clarity in business Discover the massive breakthroughs I personally had when I decided to take just one weekend of white space (and how it made me $2 million!) The devastating cost of staying stuck in constant movement and succumbing to hustle culture Why creating space to think can help you refine your strategy, reconnect to your “why”, and reignite your passion The systems you need (from planning to delegation to boundaries) to actually create and protect that white space When your calendar is filled to the brim and your brain feels scattered, you get stuck in “go mode”. You leave no time for creativity, for growth, for vision. White space is what allows you to reconnect with those goals and actually see the steps that will get you there.

Hey there, my friends! Welcome back to another episode of Resourceful Designer. Today I want to share something that could really transform the way you approach client relationships and projects. Did you know there are four simple yet powerful questions you can ask your clients that could completely change the course of your design work? I'll be diving into exactly what those questions are, how I use them in my own business, sometimes even uncovering that what a client asks for isn't really what they need, and how you can use them to elevate your role from a basic service provider to a true strategic partner. So stick around as I break down each question, share some real-world stories, and give you practical tips to start implementing these power questions in your next client meeting. Let's get started!

Linus has made headlines for statements like, “Designers who ignore AI might soon be out of jobs,” but his mission isn't to scare; it's to prepare.Together, we dig into the reality of how AI is changing the creative landscape, not five years from now, but right now.

In this powerful message from Matthew 21, Pastor Matthew Johnson teaches how our cultural love of independence can quietly lead us to resist God's authority. Through the parable of the wicked tenants, Jesus reveals that true discipleship begins with surrender—laying down our will to follow His. Pastor Matthew explores four key truths: God is the Creator, the Designer, the Redeemer, and the Judge. Each one calls us to trust Him completely. This teaching challenges believers to recognize areas of hidden rebellion, repent, and return to obedience. Discover how full submission leads to freedom and blessing in Christ.

Many people dream of starting a fashion brand.  The combination of a doing something creative with the glamour and energy of catwalk shows and photo shoots can be intoxicating.What isn't always obvious - at least for new designers or for people outside of the industry - is the challenge of starting from scratch.  It's not only about growing your brand.  It's about doing everything yourself - from designing to sewing - and the business side.  And it's not only in the fashion industry.  Starting a business can be very rewarding, but you need to be able to play the long game to reap those rewards.Meet Sofia Georgia Rothman, a rising star on the New York design scene.  Her collection has a growing following of young consumers - like her - who want high quality garments with a sense of personal style.In this episode she shares a ‘raw and real' look at what it's like launching a brand - and taking it from being a personal project into a business.USEFUL LINKS:Follow Sofia Georgina Rothman: @sofiageorgiarothmanLearn more about Inside Fashion:  https://insidefashionLive.netVisit A Seat at The Table's website at https://seat.fm

A NEW RECIPE FOR FOOD MAGAZINES—You may think a magazine called Famous for My Dinner Parties would be about food or entertaining—and I wouldn't blame you if you did. You wouldn't be wrong, but you also wouldn't be right.Taking its name from Robert Altman's film, 3 Women, Famous for My Dinner Parties started as a pandemic-inspired digital project among three friends (Junshen Wu, Sandra von Mayer-Myrtenheim and Yannic Moeken) in Berlin and has evolved into a proper magazine and media brand, and along the way has won an engaged and broad audience far beyond Berlin. Something that continues to surprise the founders.The magazine is slightly odd, if I'm being honest, idiosyncratic, thoroughly compelling, and undeniably beautiful. It's also almost entirely done in house, including all the design, photography and writing. And despite this, or maybe because of it, the thing works. Whether or not this method—or lack of one—is sustainable is another question.And just to be clear, there is not a single recipe in the magazine. Just a whole lot of ideas. This is a magazine then, editorially and conceptually, built around vibes. Fuel for a discussion, perhaps, at your next really great dinner party. Whether or not you aspire to any sort of fame.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025
