[The episode has three friends in it: Joey Svendsen, Amy Alderman, and Hayne Griffin and Stoy Prioleau]Joey stands up for himself when a peer calls him a "fake pastor" for not having time to engage in a conversation, uncharacteristically responding to this guy with a bit of abrasiveness.  Joey ponders with his friends whether the confrontation  was necessary, helpful or good.  Amy, Hayne, Stoy and Joey discuss confronting others as well as their personal comfort levels with times when it's necessary for them to do the confronting.  When close relationships go awry, Joey articulates why solidarity and support from others feels like a need. Amy shares why she believes some people are garbage and are deserving of being ghosted, Hayne processes confrontations the same way he processes mowing the lawn, and Stoy recounts a lesson that stuck with him, when he learned to listen more and speak less.  E-mail Joey here.Support Joey's work by Being a Patron / (Venmo)Check out Joey's Substack.Theme Song by Stoy Prioleau (aka: Riggy Roc): Apple MusicE-mail Joey here.

When you see a cute old couple who looks like they've been married 120 years, wrinkled, hunched over, walking down the street holding hands, you may be tempted to think they had some kind of special luck to make it together for that long. But, no two people are completely compatible. NONE. If you were to ask them what the key to their marital success has been, they'd likely tell you that they learned to let a lot of stuff go. They endured and maybe even ignored the things that weren't going to change. They may have had issues that would lead a lot of today's couples to divorce, but they found a way to work through them. And in this Deep Dive, I want to teach you how to do the same so that you can save your marriage.Follow me on social media:Facebook.com/DrLauraInstagram.com/DrLauraProgramYouTube.com/DrLauraJoin My Family!!Receive my Weekly Newsletter + 20% off my Marriage 101 course & 25% off Merch!

Families are now receiving letters about hip operations their children had 15 years ago, raising serious concerns that the scandal over unnecessary surgeries is set to deepen. Reporting on this in The Independent today is Senan Molony,

An investigation has found that many children in Ireland may have undergone unnecessary hip surgeries at Children's Health Ireland…The probe could stretch back 15 years, raising serious questions about oversight, ethics, and patient safety.Joining Andrea to discuss this is Leader of Aontú, Peadar Tóibín and some of those affected.

The health minister Jennifer Carrol MacNeill has issued letters to families whose loved ones underwent hip dysplasia procedures in children health Ireland hospitals since 2010. It is believed that many thousands of youngsters could have had operations that in retrospect were unnecessary. To get more insight to this Pat spoke to David Cullinane Sinn Fein Health Spokesperson.

What if unnecessary calories were one of the most necessary aspects of living a meaningful life? In today's episode, Livia Sara explores the concept of “unnecessary calories” through a client's fear of butter, revealing how this restrictive thinking is actually a manifestation of deeper existential fears. You'll learn: The hidden meaning behind labeling foods as having “unnecessary calories” and how it connects to the fear of being “wrong” in the world Why diet culture's contradictory messages can be particularly overwhelming for autistic individuals How the scarcity mindset extends beyond food into every aspect of life, from productivity to pleasure The powerful parallel between fearing “wasted” calories and fearing “wasted” time How to start challenging the labels that keep you trapped in restrictive patterns Want to dive deeper?

Bible Discussion: We explore the contrast between weak and mature faith in the life of a believer, emphasizing that spiritual maturity is marked by freedom in Christ—not legalistic rule-keeping. A mature believer understands that salvation comes solely through Jesus' sacrifice, not through self-imposed regulations. While weaker believers often create rules to feel worthy or safe, mature believers trust the Holy Spirit to guide them into truth and righteousness, especially in morally complex areas like alcohol or sexuality. This discussion challenges us to examine where we may still be relying on rules over grace and to embrace a life led by love, not fear, trusting that true freedom in Christ produces purity, peace, and compassion—not condemnation.

Sometimes the hardest storms in life are the ones we cause ourselves. In this message, Pastor Dustin dives into the story of Jonah to reveal how God's grace still meets us—even when we run the opposite direction. Through Jonah's journey—and a powerful testimony from our staff member Jonas—you'll discover four life-changing truths about the storms we face: 1. God will often ask you to do things you don't want to do. 2. When God gives direction, Satan provides distraction. 3. God will send a storm to grab your attention—not to destroy you, but to redirect you. 4. Life-changing grace is often found under the waves. This sermon will challenge you to stop running and start trusting. Because even in unnecessary storms, God is still calling—and He's not done with you yet.

My intention behind recording this podcast episode is to ask: are we in a season of seeding or reaping? Are we clinging to the energy of survival mode when spirit is inviting us to breathe and take in the garden we've built — enjoying the fruits of our labor and perhaps using them to create the next dish, recipe or project with ease. Perhaps we cling to the energy of survival mode and invent fires to put out because we're clinging to a feeling of control and certainty. But what if change and transformation don't have to be disorienting and destabilizing, what if we can relax into the process instead? What if the practice is about using what we have on hand to create an offering and trusting that, that is more than enough, trusting that that is plenty? These are the questions we're going to explore in today's episode.ResourcesLearn More and Enroll into the Seed A World Retreat: https://www.seedaschool.com/programSubscribe to the Seeda School Substack: ⁠https://seedaschool.substack.com/⁠Follow Ayana on Instagram: ⁠⁠@ayzaco⁠⁠Follow Ayana on Threads: ⁠⁠@ayzaco⁠⁠Follow Seeda School on Instagram: ⁠⁠@seedaschool⁠CitationsA Process for Finding Purpose: Do THIS to Build the Life You Want with Jay Shetty on the Mel Robbins PodcastThe Combahee River Collective StatementArthur Jafa: Sequencing the Notes | Art21 "Extended Play"This Japanese Shrine Has Been Torn Down And Rebuilt Every 20 Years for the Past Millennium by Rachel NuwerCover Photo: Elizabeth Catlett, El Abrazo, 1978, Mackey Twins Art Gallery, © Elizabeth Catlett Family Trust / VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn 2023, photo: Frank Sperling

Welcome to the Choosing Wisely Campaign series! This 6-part series will explore the ABIM Foundation's Choosing Wisely Campaign, its historical precedent, and its goals. We will discuss how this initiative aims to promote conversations between clinicians and patients to avoid unnecessary medical tests, treatments, and procedures. The introduction episode dives into the historic 2010 editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine that inspired over 80 professional societies to write their “Top 5 Lists” of tests and procedures that could be avoided in evidence-based care. To better understand the problem, we then pick apart the survey that provided insight into why we over order and the harm it causes to vulnerable populations.  In the coming episodes, we'll explore the pediatric lists and apply our knowledge to cases of common presentations seen in primary and acute care pediatrics.  Author: Becky Carson, DNP, APRN, CPNP-PC/AC www.thepedsnp.com Instagram: @thepedsnppodcast Series Learning Objectives: Introduction to the Choosing Wisely Campaign: Understand the origins, historical precedent, and primary goals of the campaign. Case-Based Applications: Explore five common presentations in primary and acute care pediatrics, applying concepts from various Choosing Wisely lists to guide management and resource stewardship. Effective Communication: Learn strategies for engaging in tough conversations with parents and colleagues to create allies and ensure evidence-based practices are followed.

In April of 1722 Dutch explorer Jacob Roggeveen and his crew stumbled upon a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. They sailed for the Dutch West India Company in search of Terra Australis Incognita, a hypothetical undiscovered continent that doesn't actually exist. The land they found instead was just a 64 square mile speck some 1,200 miles from the nearest island and over 2,000 miles from the nearest continent. This island, which they spotted on Easter Sunday, was incredibly small and incredibly remote. And yet, remarkably, there seemed to be people living there. Roggeveen and his crew were confused, as were the handful of Europeans who made occasional landfall in the centuries that followed. None of them could understand the mysterious people of Easter Island. Where did they come from? How did they get there? Why did they carve massive stone heads? How did they move them? There were so many unanswered questions that have led to a complete lack of answers even today. But the real mystery is, why didn't anyone just ask the Rapanui people themselves? Perhaps, if they had, Easter Island, Rapa Nui wouldn't be the mystery it is today. Join me this week to finally learn about Rapa Nui. We'll examine recent DNA evidence that completely debunks past theories and we'll finally listen to the Rapanui people whose rich oral traditions, storytelling, have survived despite it all.Support the show! Join the Patreon (patreon.com/historyfixpodcast)Buy some merchBuy Me a CoffeeVenmo @Shea-LaFountaineSources: UNESCO "Rapa Nui National Park"Smithsonian Magazine "The Secrets of Easter Island"Smithsonian Magazine "Easter Island's Ancient Population Never Faced Ecological Collapse, Suggests Another StudyNature "Ancient Rapanui genomes reveal resilience and pre-European contact with the AmericasEBSCO "European Discovery of Easter Island"Wikipedia "History of Easter Island"PBS NOVA Online "Secrets of Easter Island"Shoot me a message!

Send us a textToday we're talking about one of the most important—and misunderstood—topics in maternity care: the unnecessary cesarean. In the U.S., about one in three babies is born by C-section, but in physiologic birth settings, that number can be as low as 2–4%. So what's driving the difference?In this episode, Cynthia and Trisha unpack the many layers behind the rising cesarean rate and offer a grounded, evidence-based approach for avoiding surgery when it isn't truly needed. From provider practices to birth environments, timing to interventions, we explore what really makes a difference in protecting your ability to give birth naturally.We also talk about the deeper side of birth: how your nervous system, your sense of safety, and your trust in your body all play a powerful role in how birth unfolds. If you've ever been told you might need a C-section because your baby is “too big,” or you're wondering how to stack the odds in your favor for a physiological birth—this episode is for you.Watch the full videos of all our episodes on YouTube!**********Our sponsors:Silverette Nursing Cups -- Soothe and heal sore nipples with 925 silver nursing cups.Postpartum Soothe -- Herbs and padsicles to heal and comfort.Needed -- Our favorite nutritional products for before, during, and after pregnancy.

Story at-a-glance UTIs are one of the most overdiagnosed conditions in U.S. medicine, especially in seniors who often receive antibiotics without showing any infection symptoms Even in hospital settings, studies show overdiagnosis rates as high as 85% in some states, with three-quarters of patients labeled with UTIs lacking matching symptoms Many urine tests used to diagnose UTIs, such as checking for cloudy appearance or bacteria alone, are unreliable and often lead to unnecessary antibiotic prescriptions Bacteria in the urine without symptoms is common in older adults and catheter users, yet it's frequently mistaken for infection and overtreated You can reduce your UTI risk by eliminating CAFO meats, especially CAFO chicken, which often contain UTI-causing E. coli, practicing better hygiene, using methylene blue, optimizing sun exposure, and grounding in the ocean to support cellular energy

We're taking the Schadenfreude approach to the chaos that Trump's tariffs have unleashed upon Europe (and the rest of the world). This week, our favourite Luxembourger Nina Lamparski joins Dominic to explain why sales of Elon Musk's Tesla cars have already plunged in Europe and could now fare even worse thanks to his best bud's trade policies. We're also joined by Turkish political scientist Ezgi Başaran to discuss why President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is feeling liberated in a time that's been dubbed 'springtime for autocrats' — and whether the huge protests against him could change that. Plus, is Spain's clever new food waste law as good as it sounds?    This episode was recorded on Tuesday night, before the EU's announcement of retaliatory tariffs... and before the White House's announcement of a 90-day pause on higher tariffs for dozens of countries. At any rate, at the time of publication the world economy is still looking decidedly chaotic, so we hope you still find this an enjoyable and useful listen.  Thanks for listening.
