From today, Pasifika women are working for free. This is according to new data from the Council of Trade Unions which calculates the date each year, that women start working for free because of the gender pay gap. For all women compared to men - it's November 28, but for Pasifika women, compared to Pakeha men, it is today. Money correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to Lisa Owen.
Hannah Brencher is on the other side of a fascinating experiment that helped her redefine what it means to be living in this time, this place, and what it really means to take good care of ourselves in this digital and depleting world. I'm coming out of a very intense work season, and I'm looking at the aftermath and wondering anew what it means to take good, deep care of ourselves and of each other in all seasons, not just the calm ones but the busy and sorrowful and mournful ones and happy and swamped seasons too. I'm curious about what I don't know, and after a year of 1,000 unplugged hours, Brencher has a lot to say about what we can gain by giving up the lesser things.

In today's episode, I am so excited to chat with my new friend, Hannah Brencher, author, writer, and mental health advocate, about her new book The Unplugged Hours, releasing today. Hannah opens up about her journey with mental health, her battle with severe depression, and the transformative power of her faith. Though she grew up resistant to her mother's beliefs, everything changed when she embraced Christianity at the age of 22, learning how to study the Word and develop spiritual disciplines that now shape her life. Hannah shares how growing up in a small town in Connecticut with a large opioid addiction issue became part of her story and her eventual involvement with a church plant 12 years ago. Through the trials, testing, and the fire, she learned that true success isn't about what you accomplish, but about how you're able to show up fully and vibrantly in life. Her powerful testimony includes her battle with severe depression, which culminated in a major nervous breakdown in 2014. She emphasizes the importance of mental health and encourages listeners to seek help when needed, including therapy and the tools God provides to help us thrive. In The Unplugged Hours, Hannah reflects on how unplugging from her phone for 1,000 hours over the course of a year changed her life and mental health dramatically. She discusses the importance of finding affirmation and assurance in God rather than in online validation or worldly success. Hannah's journey is a reminder that God cares for every aspect of our being—mental, physical, and spiritual—and how closely they are all intertwined. Join us as we dive into her story, exploring the importance of checking in with God, being present in our lives, and breaking free from the distractions that can distance us from our walk with Him.

What does your relationship with your phone look like? It keeps us connected to those we love and can allow us to serve our readers with our writing. But for many of us, (myself included!) it is a source of distraction and stress. It reduces our ability to concentrate and focus—needed skills for a writer!This week, I interviewed Hannah Brencher, author of the book “The Unplugged Hours”. We talked about ways to use our phones without being constantly distracted by them. Hannah offers practical tools and suggestions for setting digital boundaries and fostering the abundant life Jesus promised us. (John 10:10)Hannah Brencher is a writer, TED speaker, and entrepreneur.

One of the best things that come out of one of the hardest weeks of my life, was learning how to better support the women around me that might be going through the same thing.

So lets talk about the MOST helpful things you can do and ways you can support the women around you when they are working through a hard season in life.Do you feel like your metabolism has slowed down?

This is one of my favorite episodes because Erin and I get to interview our husbands. Being made in the image of God as male and female is a good thing. It is not an accident that we are created to be a man or a woman. When God made us male and female, he said it was very good. We were created not to compete or be opposed to each other, but to work together in the cosmic task God has invited us into—to care for His creation and cause it to flourish. Join us as we wrestle through the idea of difference and design with our amazing and funny husbands.

“Whether or not women are on an equal plane with men in work and ministry does not seem like it should be a subject of debate,” writes Dr. JoAnn Butrin. “Many Christian organizations … would say they welcome female leadership and make opportunities for them.” Even so, many women leaders experience a gap between what is theologically affirmed and what is actually practiced. “The best chance of seeing this hurt and needy world won for Jesus is when men and women join forces,” Butrin argues. “We need each other to be the very best we can be as strategic agents of God's mission.” In this episode of the Influence Podcast, I'm talking with Butrin about how best to normalize men and women working together in church and ministry contexts. I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host.

The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves. If you've been contemplating working with a therapist, you may have found yourself wondering if working with another Black woman is the best choice for you. There are many many reasons why this is a great choice but there is also a level of vulnerability in working with another sister that catches many by surprise. In this week's episode I'm joined again by my friends and colleagues Dr. Joy Beckwith and Dr. Ayanna Abrams, both psychologists in Atlanta, to dig a little deeper into the dynamic that can occur when Black women work with Black women therapists. We discussed some of the joys and challenges of working with Black women therapists, we shared some of our own experiences of working with Black women therapists, and discussed how you can advocate for yourself to ensure you're getting what you need out of therapy.
