Podcasts about women heroes

This Women's History Month, we are celebrating the extraordinary women of World War II.  This clip shows Julia Parsons, and her top secret role as a codebreaker during the war.  From the American Home Front to the harrowing grounds of Auschwitz, "Her War, Her Story" narrated by Jane Lynch, unveils the untold tales of bravery and resilience. Over the next month, we will be posting clips from The World War II Foundation's documentary, Her War, Her Story.  Watch these short clips and be inspired by the strength of women who stood equal to men in patriotism and service during history's most violent conflict.  #HerWarHerStory #WomensHistoryMonth #wwiifoundation #WW2  #WWII  Photo Credit:  Carnegie-Mellon News, 2018  

Istrouma Baptist Church (ASC) May 14, 2023 ========== May 14 l Mother's Day Welcome! We're glad you've joined us today for our Sunday morning worship service! For more information about Istrouma, go to istrouma.org or contact us at info@istrouma.org. We glorify God by making disciples of all nations. ========== Connection Card https://istrouma.org/myinfo "Women Heroes" 1. Esther How to seek God and be courageous. Esther 4:15-16 ESV 15 Then Esther told them to reply to Mordecai, 16 “Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my young women will also fast as you do. Then I will go to the king, though it is against the law, and if I perish, I perish. 2. Hannah How to see God and prioritize God. 1 Samuel 4:1-8 ESV 4 On the day when Elkanah sacrificed, he would give portions to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and daughters. 5 But to Hannah he gave a double portion, because he loved her, though the Lord had closed her womb. 6 And her rival used to provoke her grievously to irritate her, because the Lord had closed her womb. 7 So it went on year by year. As often as she went up to the house of the Lord, she used to provoke her. Therefore Hannah wept and would not eat. 8 And Elkanah, her husband, said to her, “Hannah, why do you weep? And why do you not eat? And why is your heart sad? Am I not more to you than ten sons?” 3. Deborah How to obey God and help others be courageous. Judges 4:4-6 & 8-9a 4 Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, was judging Israel at that time. 5 She used to sit under the palm of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim, and the people of Israel came up to her for judgment. 6 She sent and summoned Barak the son of Abinoam from Kedesh-naphtali and said to him, “Has not the Lord, the God of Israel, commanded you, ‘Go, gather your men at Mount Tabor, taking 10,000 from the people of Naphtali and the people of Zebulun... 8 Barak said to her, “If you will go with me, I will go, but if you will not go with me, I will not go.” 9 And she said, “I will surely go with you."

Sustainability disclosures, enhancing coastal protection and flood management, as well as a push to boost food security - Singapore has key plans set in motion to push our little red dot closer to its ambitious 2030 Green Plan. Find out how the government is charting the city's sustainability journey with Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment who also shares personal anecdotes about the women heroes who inspired her along her leadership trek, in conjunction with International Women's Day.   [Find Us on Podcast Platforms] Awedio | Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | OmnyStudio   [Contact Us] Presenters: Lynlee Foo Producer: Yeo Kai Ting (ykaiting@sph.com.sg)   Highlights:  1:05 - First off - let's touch on the public sector's intention to lead the charge on disclosing environmental sustainability performance annually. How different do you envision this to be, compared to what's currently being done? 2:57 - Globally, there's been a lot of talk on greenwashing, and now green-hushing as well. To what extent do you hope this move will encourage private firms to do the same, and what would you say is lacking?  5:11 - Minister, we know you've been involved in Forward Singapore Conversations in relation to the focus on strengthening Singapore's coastal protection and flood management capabilities - in particular with those living in the eastern part of Singapore. Talk us through some of the key concerns residents in the east have, and are there interesting feedback or suggestions that your ministry is looking to explore further?  9:17 - Moving to the consumer front - charges for disposable carrier bags will commence at supermarkets from early July. How receptive is the public to this move? Are we looking at how other cities that are doing the same took the first step and what are some of the potential challenges you foresee?  12:58 - Another area we want to talk about is food security of course. On one hand, we see a lot done to uplift the agri-food industry by boosting R&D, as well as introduction of new food types. But some local producers have fedback that the take-up or demand for local produce is still not matching up to expectations. How are you planning to shift mindsets of consumers to go local? 17:44 - It's also International Women's Day today - so we want to take the chance to ask you if there's one woman leader you look up to personally?  19:27 - And just linking back to what you do, we've seen a good number of women leaders in the environment sphere globally. From your perspective, why is women leadership so important in climate action decision making and are there specific aspects of the field that you feel need more women representation? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
