In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss a difficult subject that has so many nuances - suicide. And they prayed that they'd handle today's conversation delicately. The previous podcast episode - CCP183: On Counseling and Therapy - provided a segue to this subject since, along with the rise in those seeking counseling, there has also been a nationwide rise in the number of deaths caused by suicide. And the big question most often asked by those within the Christian faith is: Is suicide an unforgivable sin? Episode Links Dr. White shared some data from the CDC which found that from 2002 to 2022, the rates of suicide increased by 30%, and that in the year 2023, suicide became the 11th leading cause of death. As Dr. White noted, suicide is considered a form of murder - it is the killing of yourself - and violates one of the Ten Commandments. Dr. White gave a series at Mecklenburg Community Church called “Ten,” which looks at what the Bible says specifically about each of these commands from God. You can find that series on Church & Culture HERE. The conversation also explained the idea of apostasy - the act of abandoning one's faith. If you missed it, we'd encourage you to go back and listen to CCP131: On Losing Your Salvation. Another past podcast episode that is relevant for today's conversation is CCP48: On Medically Assisted Suicide. Finally, Alexis mentioned a book written by David Biebel and Suzanne Foster called Finding Your Way after the Suicide of Someone You Love: Help and Hope for an Unexpected Journey that many of our listeners may find helpful if they've lost someone to suicide. For those of you who are new to Church & Culture, we'd love to invite you to subscribe (for free of course) to the twice-weekly Church & Culture blog and check out the Daily Headline News - a collection of headlines from around the globe each weekday. We'd also love to hear from you if there is a topic that you'd like to see discussed on the Church & Culture Podcast in an upcoming episode.

In this episode, I sit down with Emma Heming Willis to discuss her husband Bruce Willis' diagnosis with Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) and the realities of caregiving. Emma opens up about the challenges and emotions that come with caring for a loved one with dementia, the impact it's had on her blended family, and the importance of finding community support. We talk about how FTD manifested for Bruce, how she approached sharing the diagnosis with their young kids, and why advocating for caregivers is so critical. Emma shares advice from her new book, “The Unexpected Journey” for those navigating similar experiences, how she prioritizes her own well-being as a caregiver, and the significance of asking for help without guilt. We also touch on her advocacy work for brain health and the power of both vulnerability and resilience in sharing her family's journey.Key Takeaway / Points:Emma's present mindset, the challenges of caregiving, and the importance in sharing her family's storyEmma and Bruce's love story and their early dating yearsOn stepping into a blended familyNavigating Bruce's health changes and the communication struggles in their marriage that ultimately led to a diagnosisUnderstanding Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD), the differences between dementia and Alzheimer's, and Bruce's FTD symptomsHow Emma approached telling their two children about the diagnosisThe realities of caregivers not prioritizing their personal well-beingDecision fatigue, asking for help, and letting go of judgment as a caregiverEmma's advocacy work for caregivers and brain health, especially for womenRead her book “The Unexpected Journey” HEREListen to my episode with Dr. Kellyann Niotis HEREFollow Emma:Instagram: @emmahemingwillisWebsites: emmahemingwillis.commaketimewellness.comFollow me:Instagram: @cameronoaksrogersSubstack: Fill Your CupWebsite: cameronoaksrogers.comTikTok: @cameronoaksrogersYouTube: Cameron Rogers

Have you ever found yourself helping a loved one through a confusing medical situation and thought, "I wish I could do this full-time"? You're not alone. Many physicians are naturally drawn to patient advocacy and navigation, even if they don't yet realize it has a name or a career path. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Angie Ingraham, a former trauma surgeon and critical care physician who made a powerful career transition after her father's diagnosis with glioblastoma. Experiencing the healthcare system from the other side opened her eyes to the gaps patients and families face. That journey led her to launch True North Patient Advocates, where she now supports others through complex medical situations with clarity and compassion. Whether you've thought about becoming a patient advocate and navigator — or are simply curious about what this work actually involves — Angie shares the real-life steps she took to create a fulfilling and sustainable new path.   In this episode we're talking about: How a personal family crisis led Dr. Ingraham to explore patient navigation The surprising barriers patients face, even with medical connections What professional patient advocates and navigators actually do and how physicians are uniquely qualified How she built her business without formal business training The variety of clients and services in her day-to-day work Financial considerations and typical rates for advocates Steps you can take to explore this path for yourself You can find the show notes for this episode and more information by clicking here: www.doctorscrossing.com/episode236 Links for this episode: Dr. Angie Ingram — True North Patient Advocates Greater National Advocates Directory Alliance of Professional Health Advocates - Offers a Boot Camp and 100-day program for business startup Health Advocate X Patient Advocate Certification Board National Association of Healthcare Advocacy Work Episode #68: Being a Patient Advocate is a Real Option Episode #156: How To Start A Side Gig Or Business As A Patient Navigator

From history teacher to CEO, Dan Peltz never planned on becoming an entrepreneur — but when he saw a gap in how young adults with special needs were supported after graduation, he built something extraordinary. This week, the Blue Collar Twins, Jason and Jeremy Julio, sit down with the founder of Shift New Jersey to uncover how a simple idea turned into a statewide service helping thousands — and ultimately, a multi-million-dollar acquisition. Dan shares how he launched Shift with no business experience, survived losing his investors just six months in, and scaled the company to 40+ employees and over a thousand clients served each month. He opens up about leadership lessons from the front lines — building systems, hiring for personality over experience, and surrounding himself with mentors who kept him grounded through growth. Now serving as Director of Organizational Effectiveness for the company that acquired Shift, Dan reflects on what it takes to balance impact with income — and why sometimes the right move isn't to double down, but to step back.

In this episode, I peel back the layers of my own journey, how photography shaped my life, my work, and the platform many of you now know as De Donkere Kamer. From my early documentary work in Niger to years inside the newsroom, from curating major exhibitions to building a thriving international community, this is the story of how a love for images turned into a lifelong mission.I talk about the trees that keep me grounded, the risks that pushed me forward, and the vision behind creating CONNECT, a space where photographers don't just learn but grow together.If you want to dive even deeper into the craft, I'd love to invite you to our upcoming online masterclass with British-Malaysian documentary photographer Ian Teh on December 10 at 10 a.m. He'll explore how an idea evolves from a spark into a full project.

In this episode, I connect with Sam, a listener of the podcast. Sam shares his story growing up in Northern Virginia, where sports and family played significant roles, transitioning to a college life filled with heavy drinking and partying. After moving to Florida, Sam realized that alcohol prevented him from pursuing his passions and living a fulfilling life.

Sam discusses his journey through sobriety, the importance of support systems like AA and podcasts, and how focusing on his hobbies and improving his mental health has changed his life.

Send Cathy a text:)Ready for a fresh start? After more than 260 episodes and navigating through some deeply personal caregiving seasons, I've taken a much-needed pause to reimagine what this podcast can be for you. Now I'm back with renewed energy and a powerful focus: your wellbeing as a caregiver.Season One, "What's in Your Cup," is entirely about you—your health, identity, energy, and emotional wellbeing. Because here's the truth that often gets overlooked: caregiving is not just about what you give; it's about how you refill, protect, and care for your own cup. As Emma Hemming Willis wisely notes in her book "The Unexpected Journey, "Caregiving asks everything of us, yet somehow we must find ways to keep something for ourselves."   When nearly 60% of caregivers report their health worsening due to caregiving responsibilities, this conversation isn't just important—it's essential.Every Tuesday from October 7th through December 8th, 2025, you'll receive six core episodes filled with real talk, self-discovery tools, and practical strategies, plus bonus content including mini pep talks and journaling prompts between episodes. We'll kick off with "Refilled and Reimagined: What's in Your Cup Today," setting the foundation for your journey back to yourself. Whether you're new here or have been listening since day one, this season is your invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect with what makes you whole. Because when you show up as your best self, you become a stronger caregiver, advocate, and healthier human being. Mark your calendar, grab your favorite drink, and let's rediscover what belongs in your cup—together.Support the show

slottet var gyldne og røde, mens en let brise skubbede de faldende blade rundt på grusvejene.En: The chestnut trees around the castle were golden and red, while a gentle breeze pushed the falling leaves around on the gravel paths.Da: Astrid, en engageret historieunderviser, bevægede sig gennem slottets porte med et ivrigt blik.En: Astrid, a dedicated history teacher, moved through the castle gates with an eager look.Da: Hun søgte inspiration til sine historieklasser og håbede på at finde nye historier at dele med sine elever.En: She was seeking inspiration for her history classes and hoped to find new stories to share with her students.Da: Mens Astrid lyttede opmærksomt til guiden, stødte hendes øjne på Jens, der med stor passion fortalte om slottets glorværdige fortid.En: As Astrid listened intently to the guide, her eyes caught Jens, who was passionately recounting the castle's glorious past.Da: Jens havde for nylig skiftet fra et kontorjob til sit nye liv som guide, i håb om at finde mening og glæde i arbejdet.En: Jens had recently switched from an office job to his new life as a guide, hoping to find meaning and joy in his work.Da: Hver ord han udtalte trak fascinerede blikke fra de besøgende, men det var Astrid, der så ud til at være mest grebet af fortællingerne.En: Every word he spoke drew fascinated looks from the visitors, but it was Astrid who seemed most captivated by the tales.Da: Efter turen nærmede Astrid sig Jens.En: After the tour, Astrid approached Jens.Da: "Dine fortællinger var fascinerende," sagde hun, mens hun betragtede de gamle mure.En: "Your stories were fascinating," she said, while looking at the ancient walls.Da: "Jeg har altid været fascineret af historier, især dem der kan inspirere."En: "I've always been fascinated by stories, especially those that can inspire."Da: Jens smilede.En: Jens smiled.Da: "Jeg nyder at dele dem.En: "I enjoy sharing them.Da: Historie er ikke bare fortid.En: History is not just the past.Da: Det er noget, vi bringer til live hver dag."En: It's something we bring to life every day."Da: Astrid tøvede lidt, mens hun overvejede sit næste skridt.En: Astrid hesitated a little, considering her next step.Da: Hun nød sin frihed og selvstændighed, især på denne rejse alene.En: She cherished her freedom and independence, especially on this solo trip.Da: Men noget ved Jens' entusiasme fik hende til at længes efter mere.En: But something about Jens' enthusiasm made her yearn for more.Da: Hun spurgte forsigtigt, "Kunne vi udforske endnu et par steder?En: She carefully asked, "Could we explore a few more places?Da: Måske nogle mindre kendte områder af slottet?"En: Maybe some lesser-known areas of the castle?"Da: Jens nikkede, glad for hendes interesse.En: Jens nodded, pleased with her interest.Da: De begyndte at gå mod tårnet, hvor Jens fortalte om slottets mest berømte spøgelseshistorie.En: They began to walk towards the tower, where Jens recounted the castle's most famous ghost story.Da: "Det siges, at Holger Danske stadig sidder her og venter, klar til at vågne op og forsvare Danmark, hvis behovet opstår," sagde Jens med et tindrende blik.En: "It's said that Holger Danske still sits here waiting, ready to wake up and defend Denmark if the need arises," said Jens with a twinkling gaze.Da: Astrid lyttede fascineret.En: Astrid listened, fascinated.Da: Hun kunne mærke en forandring indeni, som om røgen fra fortidens historier lagde et varmt tæppe over hendes tanker.En: She could feel a change within her, as if the smoke from the stories of the past was laying a warm blanket over her thoughts.Da: Tårnens udsigt var storslået, og Jens' passion var smittende.En: The tower's view was magnificent, and Jens' passion was contagious.Da: Da turen nærmede sig sin afslutning, stod Astrid og Jens foran slottets udgang.En: As the tour drew to a close, Astrid and Jens stood in front of the castle's exit.Da: De udvekslede blikke, mens efterårets kulde begyndte at bide i kinderne.En: They exchanged looks as the autumn chill began to bite at their cheeks.Da: "Tak, Jens.En: "Thank you, Jens.Da: Dette var mere inspirerende, end jeg havde forventet," sagde Astrid blidt.En: This was more inspiring than I had expected," said Astrid softly.Da: "Jeg er glad for at have delt det med dig," svarede Jens.En: "I'm glad to have shared it with you," replied Jens.Da: "Måske mødes vi igen?En: "Perhaps we'll meet again?Da: Der er mange flere historier at fortælle."En: There are many more stories to tell."Da: Astrid nikkede og smilede, nu tydelig mere åben for at lade nye mennesker og oplevelser ind i hendes liv.En: Astrid nodded and smiled, now noticeably more open to letting new people and experiences into her life.Da: Hun havde opdaget noget specielt, ikke kun om historien, men også om sig selv.En: She had discovered something special, not just about history, but also about herself.Da: Da de skiltes, vidste både Astrid og Jens, at denne møde ikke kun var et kort glimt af delt interesse, men begyndelsen på noget, der kunne udvikle sig.En: As they parted, both Astrid and Jens knew this encounter was not just a fleeting glimpse of shared interest but the beginning of something that could develop.Da: Med hjertet fyldt af ny inspiration vendte Astrid hjem, klar til at dele sine oplevelser og historier med sine elever.En: With her heart filled with new inspiration, Astrid returned home, ready to share her experiences and stories with her students.Da: Hun indså, at hendes verden blev rigere, når hun åbnede sig op for andre.En: She realized that her world became richer when she opened herself up to others.Da: Og Jens?En: And Jens?Da: Han havde endelig fundet bekræftelse på, at hans nye sti var den rigtige.En: He had finally found confirmation

What if the only thing standing between you and your biggest, boldest dream… is the voice in your own head? There's this tug-of-war between your gut knowing and the “logical” part of yourself that insists you have to figure it all out before you leap. If you've ever felt stuck because you didn't have every last detail buttoned up, you're not alone. We live in a world that trains us to crave certainty, and that pressure can feel absolutely paralyzing. But what if the real power move, the actual leap forward, isn't about having a flawless plan? What if it's about trusting yourself enough to take that first step—even when your head says, “Not yet!” That's exactly the heart of today's episode. Karen Stahl, Owner of Moake Park Group, takes us on her journey from team member to business owner.  This episode is a masterclass in courageous ownership and following your intuition—especially in the face of fear and all those “what ifs.” We dig deep on letting go of perfectionism, building trust in yourself, and recognizing that the best growth happens when you step up, even without a safety net. We're talking about a real-life, honest-to-goodness story of leadership that celebrates imperfection, vulnerability, and hard-won lessons. We're here to remind each other that growth is messy, intuition is a superpower, and that you already have more wisdom and courage inside you than you might realize.   Chapter Highlights (00:00)  What Does it Look Like to Trust Your Gut When Your Head is Full of Doubt?          (01:45)  Why Trusting Your Gut Can Beat Having a Flawless Plan (07:30)  What People Usually Get Wrong About Readiness.                                                    (09:00)  Karen's Unexpected Journey from Team Member to Owner (11:45)  The Power of Starting Before You're Ready (15:15)  The Importance of Sharing Your Story and Backing Yourself                                      (20:18)  Why Intuition is an Underrated Superpower                                                                (28:58)  How to Build Trust in Your Intuition   Connect with Karen Stahl https://www.moakepark.com/   About Andrea Butcher Andrea Butcher is a visionary business leader, executive coach, and keynote speaker—she empowers leaders to gain clarity through the chaos by being MORE of who they already are.

Jackie and MJ prove they're Sally Ride or Dies with a shoutout to the departed astronaut and her partner, who finally got permission to reveal their relationship 10 days before passing. For better or worse Sabrina Carpenter is makin' waves with her new albums PR campaign, and Jackie says 'Dangerous Animals' is great, despite not being about a hybrid shark man murderer, Jackie wants to talk about 'The Materialist', but it's full of spoilers so it's comin' after Jackie's Snackies!
