In this episode, Lisa talks with Dr. Sergio Suarez, an osteopathic physician, about how osteopathic medicine can support babies with feeding challenges, tongue tie symptoms, and body tension.Dr. Suarez explains what Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine actually is, how DOs are trained, and why the structure-function connection matters so much in infant feeding. He shares how gentle hands-on care can help identify and release tension patterns that may affect latch, tongue movement, digestion, comfort, and overall feeding function.Together, they explore where osteopathic care may fit before and after a release, why some babies need more support than a frenotomy alone, and how families can make more informed decisions when they are feeling caught between conflicting opinions.This conversation is a thoughtful look at tongue tie care through the lens of function, body tension, and collaborative support for the breastfeeding dyad.In this episode, we discuss:What osteopathic medicine is and how not every DO uses these techniquesWhy structure and function matter in infant feedingHow body tension may affect latch, tongue movement, and comfortWhy tongue tie care should focus on function, not just appearanceHow osteopathic care may support babies before and after releaseWhy parents need education, options, and a trusted teamDr. Sergio Suarez is a board-certified osteopathic physician with training in family medicine, neuromusculoskeletal medicine, and osteopathic manipulative treatment.

In this episode, IWSTHAB's Surrogacy Support Consultant Aliza Abrams Konig sits down with Andrea Syrtash, a relationship expert and founder of Pregnantish, and her cousin Elana Syrtash-Ochs, an early childhood educator and enentrepreneur, to discuss their shared journey through gestational surrogacy. The conversation explores the profound emotional shift that occurs when a family member steps in after years of infertility, loss, and the heartbreak of being ghosted by a previous surrogate. Andrea reflects on her winding path to parenthood, marked by endometriosis, multiple miscarriages, and the eventual realization that she needed a gestational carrier. After a devastating experience with a surrogate who disappeared mid-process, Elana moved the family toward healing by offering to carry Andrea's baby herself. Together, they navigate the unique dynamics of intrafamily surrogacy, discussing how they set healthy boundaries, managed the curiosity of young children, and even educated hospital staff on how to respectfully handle a surrogacy birth. Their story is a powerful testament to trust, "beshert" timing, and the strength of family bonds.

After many months of emotionally wrenching, exhausting work on the frontlines of COVID, and the unexpected death of his mother, Dr. Michael Foti found himself in an emergency room dealing with what he suspected was a heart attack, but it was actually a panic attack caused by untreated anxiety and depression. “As healthcare providers, we're afraid to speak up about our mental health because it's seen as a weakness,” he explains. He's trying to change that culture in his role as a clinical assistant professor of Internal Medicine at Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine. One key message he tries to get across to students is that healthcare providers have to be healthy themselves before they can do the most effective job possible helping patients. As he tells host Michael Carrese, he's also urging providers experiencing mental health issues to speak up to help normalize the experience. “The more that we can share these stories amongst colleagues, then they will feel more empowered to get the help that they need.” On this insightful episode of Raise the Line, you'll also have the opportunity to hear Dr. Foti describe Touro's standardized patient program and its efforts to increase self-directed learning and interdisciplinary education. Mentioned in this episode: https://tourocom.touro.edu/

Rabbi Abraham Ibn Ezra is one of the most important Jewish personalities of all time. Aside from being a Bible commentator of great consequence, his works in Jewish philosophy - though less famous - impacted many of his successors, including Maimonides' Guide for the Perplexed, Nahmanides, and Rabbi Joseph Albo, as well as the Jewish mystics and Kabbalists. The Yesod Mora is one of the first books of Jewish philosophy written in Hebrew, which blazed the trail for philosophy to enter those parts of the Jewish world that were unfamiliar with Arabic. Highlights of Ibn Ezra's The Secret of the Torah: A Translation of Abraham Ibn Ezra's Sefer Yesod Mora (Kodesh Press, 2021) include the claim that we cannot properly understand the Bible and Talmud without studying logic, philosophy, and science; when we are obligated to accept standard rabbinic interpretations of verses, and when we are permitted to draw our own conclusions; the reasons for - and classification of - the commandments in the Torah; the composition of the soul according to Jewish philosophy; how we connect to God by achieving deveikut (communion) with God This edition of Yesod Mora is based on a version originally published in 1995, with additional notes and critical analysis. The original Hebrew text has been supplied as well. Editor, interpreter, and translator H. Norman Strickman is Rabbi emeritus of the Marine Park Jewish Center in Brooklyn and is a Professor emeritus of Jewish Studies at Touro College in New York City. He earned his ordination from Rabbi Dr. Joseph B. Soloveitchik and Rabbi Dr. Samuel Belkin of Yeshiva University.

Jill Sidebotham and her two-year-old daughter, Lydia, missing after leaving for a camping trip. The invitation to go camping came from Lydia's father,  Nicholas Hansen, and Sidebotham's ex.  Sidebotham and Hansen planned to return from their trip to Phillips, Maine, June 30th.  When they didn't, Sidebotham's family members report her missing. On July 2nd Sidebotham, Hansen, and their daughter are seen on video at a Mexico, Maine Walmart.  No one has heard from them since--not even Sidebotham's 10-year-old son Brayden.    TIPLINE: Sanford Police Department (207) 324-9170 Joining Nancy Grace Today: James Shelnutt - 27 years Atlanta Metro Area Major Case Detective, Former S.W.A.T. officer, Attorney (Gadsden, AL), The Shelnutt Law Firm, P.C., ShelnuttLawFirm.com, Twitter: @ShelnuttLawFirm,  Dr. Jeff Gardere - Board Certified Clinical Psychologist, Prof of Behavioral Medicine at Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine  www.drjeffgardere.com, Author: 'The Causes of Autism” @drjeffgardere  Greg Smith - Special Deputy Sheriff, Johnson County Sheriff's Office (Kansas),  Executive Director of the Kelsey Smith Foundation, www.kelseysarmy.com  Alexis Tereszcuk - CrimeOnline.com Investigative Reporter, Writer/Fact Checker, Lead Stories dot Com, Twitter: @swimmie2009  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
