Preaching for the Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time, Amy Hoegen offers a reflection on lifting up others: "As we go forth this week, there will be daily opportunities to respond to the needs of others. Some of those needs will be global and feel overwhelming. Some will be more practical and routine. In all those moments, let humility be the gift that uplifts, the gift that encourages us and gives us the strength to elevate others and raise up the dignity, story and the gift of every human being. "Amy Hoegen (she/her) has over 25 years of experience as a Catholic lay minister. She currently serves as a Campus Minister at the University of Scranton, a Jesuit University in Pennsylvania. She received a B.S. in Psychology from Misericordia University and a M.A. in Pastoral Ministry from Boston College. Her areas of passion and expertise include women's spirituality, Ignatian spirituality, adult faith formation and spiritual direction.

When Mr. Whiskey's Navy ship set the record for most suicides in a year, he knew there had to be a better way forward. This powerful conversation reveals how one veteran transformed trauma into a mission of healing.Following his military service as a nuclear operator, Mr. Whiskey founded Couple of Nukes LLC—not just another podcast, but a comprehensive resource hub designed to address the interconnected challenges of mental health, addiction recovery, physical wellness, and spiritual foundation. His approach acknowledges what many overlook: our mental, physical, and spiritual health exist in delicate balance, each affecting the other.Growing up with an alcoholic father who weaponized religion, Mr. Whiskey's journey to authentic faith was anything but straightforward. From declaring himself the "Antichrist" in his darkest moments to reading the Bible cover-to-cover and discovering its transformative wisdom, his spiritual evolution provides hope for anyone feeling abandoned by God during life's harshest trials. "We're not chasing after God," he shares with quiet conviction. "God is chasing after us... we just need to turn around."The statistics are sobering: approximately 76% of military suicides stem from spiritual and moral injury. Through his work, Mr. Whiskey addresses the epidemic of disconnection plaguing not just veterans but society at large. His mission extends beyond podcasting to speaking engagements, particularly targeting high schools where mental health crises and suicide rates continue to climb among younger generations.What began as an introverted childhood in a controlling home has blossomed into a life of connection and service. Despite multiple attempts to quit podcasting, divine encouragement continually redirected his path. Today, his full-time mission extends to podcast production, speaking engagements, and comedy—all aimed at reaching diverse audiences with messages of hope and healing.Check out coupleonukes.com to explore categorized episodes addressing specific challenges, or to connect with Mr. Whiskey directly. His story reminds us that our darkest moments can become catalysts for our greatest purpose—and that sometimes, the most powerful healing comes through helping others find their way.Mr Whiskey's Websitehttps://www.coupleonukes.com/Let me know what you think of this episode?

Carlos López Estrada definitely paid his dues – shooting scores of music videos and short pieces for a pittance while living at his mother's for years after film school – before he had the chance to direct his first full-length feature film, “Blindspotting.” That well-reviewed film landed him his first studio feature when Disney hired him to co-direct the animated film “Raya and the Last Dragon.” He is nonetheless the first to point out that a number of elements, including a film-school education and supportive parents, made his path to success easier than what awaited most of his cohort of up-and-coming filmmakers. He therefore focused on a new kind of creative endeavor: Antigravity Academy. Founded by Carlos in 2023, Antigravity is a hybrid business. It offers a range of educational initiatives designed to provide young, aspiring filmmakers — particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds — with the tools, mentorship and opportunities to develop their voices and tell their own stories. It also has a producing arm devoted to developing and bringing to life projects that would otherwise have difficulty finding funding. Antigravity's first produced film, “Dìdi,” a glowingly reviewed coming-of-age story by Sean Wang, proved that Carlos' mentoring and producing instincts are spot-on. “Dìdi” recently won two awards at the 2025 Film Independent Spirit Awards: Best First Feature and Best First Screenplay.In this interview, Carlos describes how his experiences in Hollywood shaped Antigravity Academy's mission and programs and explains why empowering new voices is not only helping to bring surprising stories to the screen but also making him a better artist.https://antigravityacademy.co/

Detroit's legacy breathes through the lives and voices of those who've carved pathways of resilience, creativity, and cultural pride, and Mama Lohnren's journey is a testament to this spirit. Lohren Carter-Nzoma story is a vivid tapestry of cultural preservation, family legacy, and transformative education rooted in Detroit's Black community. A second-generation Detroiter with familial ties to Alabama's rich agricultural heritage, she embodies a connection to both the South's resilience and the North's industrial promise. Her mother's fearless advocacy for justice and her father's unyielding discipline instilled a foundation of excellence that shaped Lohren's Pan-African identity. From navigating racially divided schools in Waterford to leading Montessori classrooms in Pontiac, Lohren's journey is a masterclass in bridging gaps and fostering unity. Her discovery of African dance and drum at Oakland University, sparked by a chance meeting with the legendary Mama Safiya Tsekani, unlocked an immersive understanding of African-centered education. This ignited a lifelong passion for grounding youth in the stories, movements, and rhythms of their ancestors. Through Nsoroma Institute, she cultivated a space where children thrived in cultural empowerment and collective responsibility, ensuring that education extended beyond books to embrace community, tradition, and the richness of Black identity.

"How Swami Corrected Me" Mrs Radha Rajan belongs to one of the earliest batches of students from the Anantapur campus of Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning. In those halcyon years, students had many opportunities of Divine interaction with Bhagawan and were guided directly by Him in their secular as well as spiritual life. In this episode of OMS, she recalls one such indelible moment wherein Bhagawan seemingly got upset with her and reprimanded her but in the end revealed His love for her in such a profound and powerful manner that this moment has indeed become her go-to moment whenever she longs to feel Swami in her heart.

Breast lift procedures are sought after by individuals looking to restore firmness and shape to their breasts. As surgeons work to restore a more youthful and lifted appearance to the breasts, they often face the challenge of repositioning the nipples to achieve optimal symmetry and aesthetics. This involves careful consideration of factors such as nipple placement, skin elasticity, and breast volume, all of which play a significant role in determining the surgical approach. In this episode, we'll focus on nipple removal during breast uplift procedures. Whether you're considering undergoing a breast uplift yourself or simply curious about the intricacies of cosmetic surgery, this episode promises to offer more valuable insights. Breast Lift Techniques and Patient Considerations Breast lifts are complex procedures often combined with other surgeries like explants and fat transfers to achieve balance and desired results. During these surgeries, the nipple complex may be temporarily removed and repositioned to achieve better symmetry and aesthetics. Explant surgeries involve removing breast implants and associated capsule material, which is important for patients with concerns like biofilm or breast cancer lymphoma. Reshaping the breast depends on the amount of each patient's existing breast tissue. The goal is to provide patients with safe and effective procedures while addressing individual concerns and achieving desired outcomes. Breast Reshaping Techniques and Measurements Breast lift procedures require careful consideration of various factors to achieve optimal results, particularly concerning the position and appearance of the nipple complex. Each patient's unique anatomy, including skin elasticity, nipple placement, and breast volume, requires a personalized approach to surgery. In cases where the nipple sits lower than desired, such as with a low-set nipple complex, surgeons may recommend a vertical lift technique accompanied by a lollipop scar pattern. This method allows for the repositioning of the nipple without complete removal. Instead, a delicate process involves gently removing the top layer of skin surrounding the nipple to facilitate repositioning while preserving the underlying tissues and blood supply essential for nipple health. Moreover, strategic fat transfer techniques play a crucial role in enhancing the overall appearance of the breasts post-lift. By strategically adding fat to areas such as the cleavage, surgeons can achieve a natural-looking result while avoiding excessive projection to the sides, ensuring symmetry and balance. Keeping the nipple complex intact is very important during these procedures. Surgeons take great care to retain their attachment and blood supply, avoiding unnecessary damage that could compromise their appearance or function. After the surgery, patients undergo a comprehensive post-operative care regimen, which may include hyperbaric oxygen therapy, lymphatic massage, and red light therapy. These treatments aim to accelerate the healing process and optimize results, promoting faster recovery and enhancing overall patient satisfaction.

He set up his own practice in 2017. Here, he offers the men and women of Austin a full range of cosmetic procedures, both surgical and non-surgical, addressing the full array of breast, body and face. Born and bred in Las Vegas, Austin plastic surgeon Dr. Whitfield received his medical degree from the University of Las Vegas School of Medicine. This was followed by six years of surgical training, as well as his plastic surgery residency at Indiana University Medical Center. He returned to Nevada for a one year microsurgery fellowship before settling down to practice and teach at the Medical College of Wisconsin for seven years. Board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, Dr. Whitfield's approach to medicine has really been shaped by both his upbringing and his education. As a child of the “wild west,” he was born with an adventurous spirit. One of the reasons that he was drawn to plastic surgery is the constant innovation. In the field of plastic surgery, with innovative techniques and technologies developed each year, there are simply issues for which a solution has yet to be invented. Dr. Whitfield tempers his intrepid attitude with Midwestern pragmatism. It makes for a pretty winning combination.

This initiative not only addresses the industry's need for skilled professionals but also empowers individuals within the community with valuable career opportunities. The podcast also highlights the creation of the Health Digest Service Excellence Value Award, an initiative by Yves to recognize and celebrate the unsung heroes in sterile processing. This award exemplifies the culture of appreciation and respect Yves has instilled in his department, further cementing his status as a visionary leader. Yves' story is a testament to the impact of heart-led leadership, the power of education, and the value of community engagement. His strategies for team building, professional development, and inter-departmental collaboration offer a blueprint for creating a thriving, inclusive, and efficient workplace. Listeners will leave this episode inspired by Yves' dedication, creativity, and compassionate leadership, armed with actionable insights to implement in their professional environments.

"I heard elders talk about 'the shakes,' but I now know that language reflects deep historical inequities that have denied us access to healthcare, knowledge, and research that could help us alleviate burdens and strengthen our health—enough with the shakes!" —Senegal Alfred Mabry, in CellParkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder in the United States. According to a 2022 study, some 90,000 people a year in the US are diagnosed with Parkinson's. It's a progressive disease that worsens over time, producing unintended or uncontrollable movements, such as tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with balance and coordination.Researchers are working to better understand the causes of the disease, how it connects to other health conditions, and how to slow or prevent its effects. Senegal Alfred Mabry is a third year PhD student in neuroscience at Cornell University, and was recently named a recipient of this year's Rising Black Scientist Award by Cell Press. His research involves interoception—a sense that allows the body to monitor its own processes—and the autonomic nervous system. He joins Ira to talk about his research into Parkinson's disease, and the importance of scientific research being connected to communities.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

Sphinx Virtuosi – Songs for Our Times (Deutsche Grammophon) New Classical Tracks - Andre Dowell, Sphinx Virtuosi by “My role with the organization as the chief of artist engagement is to really understand the talent that is out there and to be able to recruit the musicians who perform with the Sphinx Virtuosi,” Andre Dowell says. “Community engagement, in terms of how they are engaging their community, not just the youth, but also their audiences and educating them about our mission, which is transforming life through the power of diversity in the arts.”For the past 15 years, Dowell has watched the Sphinx Organization evolve as it strives for and achieves that mission. One way in which it's doing that is with a professional, self-conducted touring ensemble of 18 members made up of freelance musicians and professors at universities. That ensemble is Sphinx Virtuosi, which has just released its debut recording, Songs for Our Times.“Over the past couple of years, we've had the great opportunity to have our programs be comprised solely of musicians who are Black or Latino. Because of that, we really wanted to have an album out that represented not only the Sphinx Organization, but the Sphinx Virtuosi. One thing that you'll find with our debut album is that every composer is a composer of color.”Why is this title, Songs for Our Times, so significant?“Songs for Our Times really digs into composers that we've worked with in the past, celebrating artists and composers who have paved the way. We talk about Florence Price, for example. We talk about Jessie Montgomery, Valerie Coleman, Carlos Simon, and we have a great arrangement of Beethoven's Bridgetower by Rubén Rengel. Songs for Our Times goes into the past, the rich history of the Sphinx organization, and explores how that intertwines with the composers of today.The album opens with Global Warming, by Michael Abels, who won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for Music. Can you talk about the history of this piece and why it fits in so well with this debut recording?“This piece really inspired us to feature Michael Abels as a composer. This piece just captures so perfectly what it means to be in this world today and going through COVID-19 and the pandemic. And what you'll find on the CD is George Floyd in the aftermath of that, in terms of what it means to reflect in this world today.” Watch on YouTubeThere's an unusual time signature in the piece by Ricardo Hertz. It's called Sisyphus in the Big City. Why do we have this 25/16 time signature?“It is great. And if you listen to the music enough, you'll be able to understand and feel the rhythmic structure of it. We have the great opportunity to play this piece in Brazil with Ricardo himself. It's something that requires a lot of communication in terms of being able to play that type of time signatures while also keeping the groove.”Valerie Coleman's two-movement piece, Tracing Visions, is on this recording, and each of the movements is so powerful. Would you share the story behind them?“The first movement we talk about Emmett Till and other victims of domestic violence or terrorism, if you will. It's a remembrance of those times. And it ends with the second movement, which means power and is a celebration of where we have come in our society. And she takes this motif and really expands it to uplift the work that has been done, and that we continue to do, and the fight that we continue to have in our society.” Listen on YouTubeTo hear the rest of my conversation, click on the extended interview above, or download the extended podcast on iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts.ResourcesSphinx Virtuosi – Songs for Our Times (Amazon)Sphinx Virtuosi – Songs for Our Times (Deutsche Grammophon)Sphinx Virtuosi (official site)
