Episode Description:Nancy Cartwright is best known as the voice of Bart Simpson. But in this archive conversation, James is interested in the artist behind the voice.Nancy joins the show to talk about In Search of Fellini, the film she co-wrote with Peter Kjenaas based on her own trip to Italy in the 1980s. At the time, Nancy was already working as an actress and voiceover performer, but she became obsessed with Federico Fellini's La Strada. She studied scenes from the film in acting class, felt deeply connected to Giulietta Masina's performance, and eventually decided she wanted to get the rights to adapt La Strada for the stage.So she wrote Fellini letters. When she finally got a response telling her not to come because Fellini would be working, Nancy heard something else: he would be there.She went anyway.That decision becomes the central metaphor of the episode. Nancy describes the trip not as a business errand, but as an immersion into life, art, culture, language, risk, chance encounters, and personal transformation. The film's line—sometimes you have to travel far, far away to find what is closest to you—comes from one of those real encounters.James and Nancy also talk about her earlier career. Nancy explains how she found her way from speech competitions in Ohio to radio work, to studying with Daws Butler, to acting classes with Milton Katselas. She shares stories about auditioning for Cheers, getting a part after walking straight out of the casting room, and learning that if you surprise yourself, you can surprise everyone else.That lesson also applies to The Simpsons. Nancy originally went in to audition for Lisa, but when she saw Bart's description—“a 10-year-old school-hating underachiever and proud of it”—she knew instantly that was the part. She trusted the instinct.The conversation becomes a meditation on creativity. Mentorship matters. Preparation matters. But at some point, the artist has to do the work, throw it away, walk into the room, and trust what happens.Nancy's story is about voice acting, Fellini, and Bart Simpson. But it is also about making the leap from talent to authorship, from performing other people's words to finding the story only you can tell.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode. References to In Search of Fellini as a new or limited-release film, The Simpsons at that point in its run, Nancy's projects, and release timing reflect the original recording period.What You'll

Join the Community https://cathyheller.com/cathys-circle/ What if feeling healthier, more alive, and more connected does not require changing your entire life at once, but simply making the next choice that aligns with the highest version of you? In this episode of Everything Is Energy, Cathy sits down with her friend Sanam Ghiyam for a conversation about the intersection of physical health, spirituality, desire, and what it really means to thrive. Sanam has spent years optimizing her own health and sharing what she learns with the people around her, and together she and Cathy explore why taking care of your body and deepening your spiritual life may be more connected than we realize. They talk about the simple foundations Sanam returns to again and again, including sleep, resistance training, and nourishing food, as well as the role that peptides and GLP-1s can play when used thoughtfully with medical guidance. But the conversation goes much deeper than health hacks. Cathy and Sanam explore what it means to live with certainty without needing to control the outcome, why your desires may be pointing you toward the next version of yourself, and how sharing what you receive creates more abundance for everyone around you. They also talk about starting small instead of trying to overhaul your life overnight, why who you surround yourself with matters, and how a few minutes of gratitude can completely change what you notice. Cathy shares a powerful story about asking God and her late father for guidance and receiving an answer in a way she never could have predicted. This episode is for you if you feel overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice about health and longevity, you want to feel stronger and more energized as you get older, you are learning how to trust your desires without becoming attached to the outcome, or you want to become more available to the guidance, synchronicities, and blessings that may already be surrounding you.  Follow Cathy on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cathy.heller/ Work with Cathy https://cathyheller.com/work-with-me Explore MedPod LA https://medpodla.com Follow MedPod LA @medpodla

This is where I think people misunderstand what “doing the work” actually means. Doing the work is not just listening to sobriety content, understanding the science, or listening to people do the work in meetings. That information matters, but information alone isn't going to change the pattern. You may have noticed how this podcast has evolved over the years. Each episode used to be a deep dive into the science, and then I've talked about it less and less. I learned that understanding what's going on helps a lot, but it's really the beginning of the story, not the end.  Work with me: Community & Meetings: Living a Sober Powered Life https://www.soberpowered.com/membership Sober coaching https://www.soberpowered.com/sober-coaching Weekly email: You'll hear from me every week-ish https://www.soberpowered.com/email Support the show: If you enjoyed this episode please consider buying me a coffee to support all the research and effort that goes into this podcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/soberpowered Thank you for supporting this show by supporting my sponsors https://www.soberpowered.com/sponsors Sources are posted on my website Disclaimer: all of the information described in this podcast is my interpretation of the research combined with my opinion.

In this episode of the Grad School Femtoring podcast, I share three truths I wish I understood before starting graduate school. For first-generation, BIPOC, neurodivergent, and other students navigating unfamiliar academic spaces, graduate school can feel like entering a cultural system with its own language, expectations, hierarchies, and unwritten rules. I reflect on my experience of feeling behind and explain why struggling to understand the hidden curriculum does not mean you do not belong. I also explore how productivity culture can tie your sense of worth to your output and why mentorship, femtorship, and community care are essential parts of a sustainable graduate school experience. Through three reflection prompts, I invite you to name the expectations affecting your sense of belonging, identify where you may be overworking to prove yourself, and consider who you can reach out to for support. In this episode, you will learn: Why graduate school functions as a cultural system with unwritten rules beyond academic requirements. How unclear expectations, departmental politics, and unstructured time can affect your sense of belonging. How doing less, resting more, and setting boundaries can protect your wellbeing. Why mentorship, femtorship, and community care are essential to navigating graduate school. Three reflection questions to help you seek clarity, reduce overwork, and identify support.

It feels like we're stuck in an endless debate about what AI is going to mean for jobs and the economy. The prediction you hear from the people closest to the technology — both its critics and its boosters — is that mass automation is coming, and with it mass unemployment. In response, some AI CEOs are promising a post-labor Golden Age of abundance and universal high income. But you also hear from some techno-optimists and economists that AI will create more jobs than it destroys and that society's fears are unjustified. When these arguments are traded back and forth, no one can know what's actually true, and nothing happens. And caught in the middle of this debate are actual workers trying to figure out what this means for their family and themselves, or whether their kids should go to college. And as long as that debate stays alive, nobody plans or takes action ahead of what's coming. So this week on Your Undivided Attention, rather than continuing to referee this debate, we follow the incentives and show you where they're actually taking us in the very near future. Our guest, economist Molly Kinder, argues that we're entering what she calls the “messy middle”: a period of concentrated and uneven workforce disruption. She has evidence-based arguments about where, specifically, AI will affect the labor force, what the second and third-order consequences of those effects might be, and what we need to do today to protect people's livelihoods. Molly recently left her position as a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution to become the founding CEO of a new organization dedicated to addressing AI's impact on jobs. Her Substack, Kinder Futures: Dispatches on AI, Work & What Comes Next, features some of the clearest-eyed analysis of AI's impact on the economy.RECOMMENDED MEDIA Kinder Futures: Dispatches on AI, Work & What Comes Next (Molly's Substack) Molly's blog posts at Brookings The Yale Budget Lab's AI Labor Market Tracker RECOMMENDED YUA EPISODES AI and the Future of Work: What You Need to Know Is AI Productivity Worth Our Humanity? with Prof. Michael Sandel AI and Jobs: How to Make AI Work With Us, Not Against Us with Daron Acemoglu   Corrections Molly incorrectly referred to cuts to “Medicare for the neediest populations.” The cuts she describes are to Medicaid.

Matthew 13:52, “Every teacher of religious law who becomes a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a homeowner who brings from his storeroom new gems of truth as well as old.” Well what on earth is Jesus trying to show us here? Being a teacher of religious law means you know your Bible. You know facts. You know history. You know verses. You know order. But there’s more than just knowledge of the Bible for us – we are invited to become DISCIPLES. As a disciple of Jesus, we are his STUDENTS. Do you see the interesting dynamic Jesus is introducing here – for those who call themselves teachers, those who know all there is to know about the Bible, we can then go even deeper by being a student of Jesus. We can learn from him. Jesus wants to take us beyond the written word, he wants to reveal to us the things of Heaven. Have you ever studied scripture and simply gotten nothing out of it? My friend, you could have the entire Bible memorized from cover to cover, which many ‘teachers of religious law’ did in these days, but fail to be a discipled as a student of Jesus. You could know everything there is to know about God’s word, but only have knowledge without meaning. God hasn’t called you to gather up more and more knowledge so you’re the most intelligent person with massive amounts of information. He’s called you to be a student of Jesus, learning spiritual ways beyond the words. Jesus calls us into relationship with him. In close relationship we can see how Jesus works. He says in Matthew 11: 29-30 MSG, “Walk with me and work with me – watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” You can’t learn that from reading. You could study for the rest of your life and never learn the unforced rhythms of grace. These are the things you will only learn in close relationship with Jesus as his disciple. Are you ready to really be a student of Jesus? Okay, then KEEP COMPANY with him. What would that really look like? Keeping company with Jesus means you invite Jesus to be with you in your everyday life. It’s beginning to live in a continual awareness that he is there. Wow, to think that Jesus is personally interested in YOU and every detail of your life. There’ a line in a song I love that says, “Never thought to stop and wonder – You made a million colors – And now you’re thinking about me.” Let that settle in for a moment. God had the capacity and creativity to make a million different colors in every different tone and shade, and now that same God is thinking about YOU!!!!! What???!!!!!! That must mean you’re special. That must mean he sees you as worthy. That must mean your life is for a purpose. And when you live with that awareness, life begins to take on a different color. Nothing is an accident. All things are truly working together for good in the hands of the God who is wild about you! And now, this great big, huge, all-knowing, all-powerful God has invited you to personally be his student and keep company with him?!!!!!!!!!!!!! As you’re walking through your every day, ordinary life, recognizing Jesus is actually with you – you will begin to open yourself up to what he is trying to teach you. THAT IS DISCIPLESHIP. This is how you will learn the unforced rhythms of grace. This is how you will learn to live freely and lightly. And this will change your life completely! These are the things you don’t get from just reading. This isn’t a class you can go to. This is one-on-one life training with the one who created life. Jesus teaching you. When Jesus says, “Walk with me, work with me – Watch how I do it”, he’s not asking you to take a class. He’s inviting you to be his apprentice. This is an apprenticeship. You watch the expert! Watch how Jesus handled hardship. Watch how he handled criticism. Watch how he responded when he was tired. Watch how he spent time with the Father praying. What how he dealt with interruptions. Watch how he LOVED. Watch how he forgave. Watch how he handled power. Watch how he trusted God. YOU LEARN BY WATCHING JESUS. Then, you start doing what you see him do. Today, this day of your real life, it is a classroom. Jesus is teaching you something here. Something beyond the typed words in your Bible. Something beyond the same stories you will read. Something personally designed for you to see Jesus working so you can learn to do the same. Today, you will learn patience. Today you will learn trust. Today you will learn surrender. Today you will learn peace. Today, your life is filled with opportunities to be disciplined by Jesus. YOU DON’T ALREADY KNOW EVERYTHING! Jesus has so much more he wants to teach you. Now, back to this parable. In the story, Jesus says the disciple (the student who is constantly learning) is like a homeowner who brings things out of his storeroom. Okay – you can’t bring out what you haven’t put in. Every time you spend time with Jesus, you’re putting something in the storeroom. This is how scripture comes alive. This is how lessons grow deep. This is when you see God’s answer to prayers. This is personally experiencing the faithfulness of God. THIS IS THE STOREHOUSE. You’ve been storing up all this goodness so you can bring it back out at any time. Old things and new things. Old promises and brand new revelations of how Jesus is working personally in your life. Old stories of how they’re unfolding in awesome new ways in this season. Isn’t it incredible how you can read the same verses and same stories in your Bible in a different season of life and find a whole new meaning? Yip – that’s what happens in the storehouse. As a student of Jesus you’re adding more and more and it just keeps growing and becoming more. Maybe the goal of your Christian life isn’t to become someone who knows the most about God. Maybe it’s to become someone who knows God so well that His ways become your ways. That’s why Jesus doesn’t simply invite you to read about Him. He says: “Come. Follow Me.” Walk with Me. Work with Me. Watch Me. Learn from Me. Keep company with Me. And eventually, without even realizing it, you’ll start responding like Him. You’ll start loving like Him. You’ll start forgiving like Him. You’ll start seeing people like Him. You’ll start trusting like Him. You’ll start living like Him. And that’s when the storeroom starts filling up. Not just with facts about Jesus. But with experiences of Jesus. Not just verses you’ve memorized. But truth you’ve lived. Not just knowledge in your head. But Jesus shaping your heart. And then, when life gets hard—or when someone else needs what you’ve learned—you can walk into your storeroom and say: “Oh, I’ve got something for this.” Because you’ve been keeping company with Jesus.

There is a huge difference between making a list of things to do... and intentionally designing your week. You can grocery shop, meal plan, check the calendar, reset the house, and still wake up Monday morning feeling like everything is already competing for your attention. In Day Two of the Back-to-School Reset Series, I am showing you what a real weekly reset looks like when you're a mom with important work to do. We are talking about creating an automated calendar that already knows what your normal week looks like, scheduling your true life non-negotiables so they stop leaking into your work time, and resetting your WORK every single week so you do not keep opening the same never-ending list and wondering where to start. This is the difference between preparing for Monday... and intentionally designing the way your entire week is going to operate. xoxo, Chelsi Jo . . . . .

Have you ever wondered if the reason you feel stuck isn't because you don't know who you are... but because you've spent years hiding parts of yourself to make other people comfortable?In this episode, I'm joined by journalist, editor, and author Stacey Lindsay to explore what it really means to become more of yourself. We talk about why getting older can be one of the most freeing and creative experiences of your life, how to stop living for other people's expectations, and why your 40s might just be the beginning of your most authentic chapter yet.From this conversation, you'll learn:-Why so many of us shrink ourselves to make others comfortable.-How to stop living by other people's expectations.-Why courage is built through small, everyday choices.-How to reconnect with the parts of yourself you've hidden.-Why your 40s can be one of the most creative and empowering seasons of your life.Whether you're approaching 40 or simply longing to feel more like yourself, I hope this  conversation reminds you that it's never too late to become who you've been all along.

What do you do when you make a beautiful plan for the week…and by Tuesday, everything has changed? Kids get sick. Appointments move. Work takes longer than expected. Your energy changes. And suddenly, the schedule you carefully created no longer works. In this episode of The Classy Career Girl Podcast, I'm sharing the simple weekly planning rhythm I use to stay focused without creating a rigid schedule that falls apart the moment real life happens. You'll learn my 4-part gentle weekly planning system: How to choose your top three priorities for the week Where to put everything else you'd like to accomplish How to batch administrative tasks so they don't take over your week Why family, personal commitments, and time for yourself belong in your plan too How to connect your weekly priorities to your bigger goals Why planning should create peace and clarity—not more pressure The goal isn't to perfectly execute everything you wrote down on Sunday. The goal is to know what matters most so that when life changes, you know what to come back to. Because you probably don't need more hours in your day. You need clarity about what deserves those hours.

What if the fear you've been trying to push away is actually trying to tell you something important?Steph unpacks our complicated relationship with fear, pulling from her own personal growth journey to show how it shapes decisions we don't even notice. She breaks fear down into two distinct types, visceral and abstract, and explains why understanding the difference is key to real self-awareness. Rather than treating fear as something to conquer, Steph reframes it as valuable information, a signal about our beliefs and identity worth listening to instead of avoiding. Through this lens of emotional processing, we start to see fear management not as suppression but as connection, and it opens the door to greater resilience and a deeper sense of aliveness.In this episode you'll discover:The difference between visceral and abstract fearWhy avoiding fear backfires and what it costs usHow to shift from fighting fear to learning from itYour takeaways:Fear isn't something to defeat, it's information you can learn from.Learn the difference between visceral fear and abstract fear, and why it matters.Discover why you can't outthink fear, and what actually works instead.Chapters00:00 Understanding Fear: A Personal Journey09:52 Types of Fear: Visceral vs. Abstract18:49 Interacting with Fear: A New Approach

Meet Mark. Mark is an inspiring example of what can change in just eight months when someone stops chasing complicated health solutions and starts giving the body what it actually needs. In this powerful testimonial episode of The Body Wisdom Podcast, Jamie Belz is joined by Mark and Heather McDonough, FNTP, RWP, to share an extraordinary story of foundational healing, personal responsibility, and the body's remarkable capacity for change. After 35 years of working rotating 12-hour shifts, Mark knew his health was slipping. He was living with relentless brain fog, extreme sleep deprivation, digestive pain, low energy, constant hunger, and a growing dependence on energy drinks, caffeine, sugar, and processed food. During night shifts, he stayed awake with energy drinks and Mountain Dew. He had struggled with diverticulitis for two years, spent months on antibiotics, and had taken medication for high blood pressure and cholesterol for more than a decade. An unexpected father-daughter trip led Mark to hear Jamie speak at a conference, and that's when everything changed. He enrolled in the Foundations of Healing course through the NTA and began learning how food, hydration, sleep, digestion, and blood sugar regulation influence the entire body, and eventually started working one-on-one with Heather through NTA Health. Mark did not follow a restrictive diet, count every calorie, or purchase a collection of miracle products. He followed the teachings of the NTA. Eight months later, Mark reports losing nearly 25 pounds without feeling like he is on a restrictive diet. His brain fog has lifted, his digestive pain has resolved, his hunger and sugar cravings have changed, and his energy has returned. He is active after work instead of collapsing into a recliner, and he says he feels at least ten years younger. One former coworker even stopped him to ask why he looked younger and happier. Heather explains how Nutritional Therapy Practitioners use tools such as a Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire, food and mood journals, symptom-burden graphs, and individualized client conversations to identify foundational priorities. She and Jamie explore how supporting a nutrient-dense diet, digestion, blood sugar regulation, hydration, sleep, and stress can create a ripple effect throughout the body. This candid conversation also covers the realities of changing deeply ingrained habits, navigating restaurants and social events, recognizing hidden sugar in supposedly healthy foods, building protein-rich meals, rethinking the standard American breakfast, and learning to make sustainable choices based on how you want to feel. Mark's story is not about perfection. It is a powerful example of what can happen when education, accountability, functional nutrition, and consistent daily decisions come together. Listen to discover how the Foundations of Healing course introduced Mark to a new way of supporting his body, how personalized nutritional therapy through NTA Health helped him put that knowledge into practice, and why eating real food, drinking water, prioritizing protein, and listening to the body may be far more transformative than they sound. _______________________________________________________ Want to work on YOUR health?

Work with Paul: Schedule a 30-minute conversation What do you do when the smartest money decision you made is the one you can't stop second-guessing? In this episode, I dig into a line from Morgan Housel about how it's possible to make good decisions that don't work and bad decisions that work beautifully. I talk about why that lands so hard for families who built their careers in fields where good process reliably produces good results, and why money refuses to play by those rules. I use the example I see most often: families with a large portion of their net worth tied up in company stock, and a decision to trim it or hold it that ends up looking wrong for a while, either way. I also share a decision from my own life that looked questionable for a couple of years before it didn't, and what that taught me about separating the quality of a decision from an outcome I couldn't control. We close with one small question you can ask about the money decision you keep replaying, the one that finally lets you put it down. Connect with Paul If you're a working parent juggling a senior-level career and a growing family, and you're tired of coordinating four different advisors to run your financial life, I offer complimentary 30-minute conversations.

Drawing from his background as an Army medic and NYC firefighter, John shares how a stagnant lymphatic system the body's waste removal network is often the root cause behind chronic fatigue, brain fog, stubborn gut issues, and systemic inflammation. Learn how acidity clogs your lymphatic flow, the newly discovered link between the brain's "glymphatic" system and mental health, and simple daily physical techniques you can start using today to get your body flowing.   In this episode, you will learn: How your lymphatic system acts as the body's internal waste disposal and why its clogging leads to anxiety, brain fog, and chronic fatigue. How acidic buildup in the brain blocks your "glymphatic" system and impacts mental health. The surprising way stagnant cellular waste worsens IBS, bloating, and intense menopause symptoms. Quick, simple daily breathing and movement techniques you can do anywhere to instantly boost lymphatic flow.

You keep telling yourself you're not ready.The website needs work. The logo isn't quite right. The offer needs one more tweak. But what if being "not ready" isn't really the reason?Sometimes the thing we're fixing on the outside is giving us somewhere to hide from what's actually uncomfortable: being seen.Today, we're going underneath the delay and getting honest about what's really keeping you from putting yourself and your work out there.Journal PromptsThink about the project, business, offer, or thing you've been sitting on. What reason have you been giving yourself for why it's not ready to share yet?If that reason disappeared tomorrow and everything was perfect, what would you be afraid of then?Where did that fear come from? Was there a time you put yourself out there and it didn't go the way you hoped, or someone whose opinion made you shrink? What did you decide about yourself afterward?Finish this sentence honestly: "If people actually see me and what I'm building, they might think..."

We Fell In Love Thanks To Sobriety w/ Nic And Ant (@nic_n_ant) | The Hopeaholics Podcast #353Nicole and Anthony one of the most recognized and popular sober/recovery couples in social media. They met in a recovery meeting in 2018. She had six years and he was 60 days out of detox. His first year clean was a mess. Lies, cheating, not working a program. Both going through divorces simultaneously, his kids hating Nicole, his ex-wife's family leaving homewrecker comments in the comment section for years. They broke up and kept finding their way back. Nicole got clean at 21. Before that: 92 pounds, homeless, sheets over every mirror because she couldn't look at herself, months in the same blue dress without showering. Five arrests starting at 19 — selling drugs on felony probation, assault with a deadly weapon, possession. Stealing painkillers off a dying aunt on hospice and still not stopping. Anthony's path started with a work injury and a prescription. Heroin, then speed, then the needle. He took his son to baseball practice, dropped him off, and sat in the car getting high. He left his family mid-vacation in Montauk, drove four hours home to pawn the Rolex his wife had saved up to buy him, and went on a two-day run. When he came back, she told him: get help or you'll never see these kids again. Follow the Hopeaholics on our Socials:https://www.instagram.com/thehopeaholics https://linktr.ee/thehopeaholicsGo to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

Disney's live-action remakes continue to spark debate, but I think the bigger conversation isn't whether they're good or bad—it's what they reveal about the strengths of animation as a storytelling medium.I compare a scene from the live-action Moana trailer with the original animated film to explore why certain moments work so much better in animation. We dive into the differences between animation and live action, why translating scenes frame-for-frame often falls flat, and why successful adaptations focus on capturing the spirit of the original rather than copying it beat by beat. Whether you're a filmmaker, animator, writer, Disney fan, or simply interested in visual storytelling, this breakdown explores what each medium does best and why animation deserves to be valued as an art form—not viewed as a stepping stone to live action.

Are you constantly keeping the peace with others while fighting a silent war within yourself?In this episode of Mind Body Medicine for Self Healers, we dive deep into the hidden physical and emotional costs of chronic people-pleasing, conflict avoidance, and emotional suppression. Many of us learned early in life that being agreeable was the only way to stay safe, loved and accepted. But what served as a childhood survival strategy often transforms into adulthood self-abandonment, leaving us exhausted, resentful and physically depleted. We often attribute chronic stress to busy schedules or workloads, but the stress of editing who you are and swallowing your truth takes a massive toll on your nervous system and physiology. Your body keeps score.

Send us Fan MailA career can end without a single bad call. Sometimes it's the station politics, the paper trail, and the quiet retaliation that do the damage and it can hit your mental health just as hard as anything on the street. I sit down with Bridget Truxillo, an attorney, former deputy sheriff, and former SWAT team member, to talk about what happens when the workplace becomes the stressor you can't escape. Her story runs from patrol to undercover narcotics to SWAT, and then straight into the kind of employment problems most first responders hope they'll never face.We get specific about what it's like being the only woman in a specialty unit, how “equal standards” can turn into unequal scrutiny, and how a culture of write-ups and rumors can push someone out of a job they once saw as a lifelong calling. Bridget shares why she built Lady Law Shield, and why she treats career protection as part of a larger first responder wellness plan. We also talk about trust and confidentiality, and why privileged communication matters when you're afraid that speaking up will come back to you.Then we dig into the practical side: unions versus employment lawyers, what unions usually handle well, and where they typically cannot help with discrimination, harassment, or retaliation claims. Bridget breaks down why reporting in writing matters, how strict EEOC and state deadlines can be, and why waiting too long can permanently limit your options. If you're in law enforcement, fire, EMS, corrections, or dispatch and work is starting to feel consuming, this conversation gives you a clear next step and a way to breathe again.Find Bridget at LadyLawShield.com, and if this helps, subscribe, share the episode with a teammate, and leave a review so more first responders can find it.You can find Bridget at https://ladylawshield.com/about-usSupport the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast

In this special DanceSpeak x No Starving Artists crossover episode, we sit down with Moncell Durden for a candid conversation about the International Dance League and some of the bigger questions its inception brings to the dance community. Through Moncell's perspective, we dig into what dancers can consider when new professional opportunities emerge, from sustainability and understanding contracts to asking better questions before signing on the dotted line. This isn't legal advice, but rather an invitation for dancers to think critically, stay curious, and better understand the opportunities in front of them. A thoughtful conversation about IDL that ultimately asks a bigger question: how can dancers become more informed participants in their own careers?

Physical therapy has always told students some version of the same story:Work hard. Get the degree. Help people. There will be a job waiting.But what happens when the math starts to break?In this episode of PT Breakfast Club, Jimmy McKay and Tony Maritato start with a post from Richard Severin about the financial viability of the physical therapy profession. The conversation quickly moves into PT school ROI, student debt, academic program pressure, and whether the next generation of students is more willing to ask the uncomfortable question:Is this still worth it?Tony argues that the profession may be facing a bigger identity problem than it wants to admit. If a patient's desired outcome is less pain and better function, PT is only one possible delivery model. AI, tech-enabled MSK platforms, personal trainers, hospital systems, cash-pay clinics, PTAs, techs, and other professions may all compete to deliver parts of what PT has traditionally owned.Jimmy pushes the business angle: if you own a private practice, you are not just in the physical therapy business. You are in the marketing business, the patient attraction business, the hiring business, the customer experience business, and the human resources business.The second half of the episode turns into a practical marketing lab. Jimmy and Tony critique a listener's marketing pitch about targeting new families moving into a clinic's area, then break down why so much AI-generated healthcare marketing feels cheap, loud, and generic. They use classic advertising examples like Rolls-Royce, Grey Poupon, Holiday Inn, and Volkswagen to show how better strategy leads to better creative.The episode closes with Prompt's Career Connection program and the idea that maybe some clinicians do not need to leave physical therapy. Maybe they just need to leave the wrong job.Key IdeasPT has a financial viability problem, not just a morale problem.Students who really run the numbers may never enter the profession.“I just want to help people” is not enough if the career cannot support a life.The profession may need to separate outcomes from identity.Outpatient ortho under insurance may not be the future of private practice.If PT cannot scale the outcome, someone else will.Private practice owners are not only in the PT business.Marketing is not decoration. It is how the market understands your value.AI-generated design still requires strategy, taste, and iteration.Career matching may work better when it is human, specific, and trust-based.

Women are often told that working harder is the key to getting ahead. Deliver exceptional results, say yes to every opportunity, support the team, and eventually someone will notice. But for many women, that strategy doesn't lead to promotions—it leads to becoming indispensable in the very role they're trying to outgrow. In this episode of This Is Woman's Work, Nicole Kalil sits down with Patty Azzarello—author, speaker, business advisor, and former Fortune 500 executive—to unpack the unwritten rules that shape career advancement. Drawing from her own journey from awkward introvert to CEO before the age of 40, Patty shares the lessons she learned about visibility, executive presence, influence, and why competence alone is rarely enough to build a successful career. In This Episode, Nicole and Patty Discuss: Why being excellent at your job can actually keep you stuck in it. The hidden career rules that no one teaches—but everyone is expected to know. The difference between being busy, being valuable, and being visible. Why women often take on "office housework" that doesn't advance their careers. How to identify the work that creates the greatest value for the business. Practical strategies for saying no without damaging relationships. Why executive presence is often poorly defined—and how to build it authentically. How bringing humanity to leadership creates greater influence than trying to be impressive. Why visibility matters just as much as performance when it comes to promotions. Simple ways to build relationships with senior leaders and decision-makers. The power of asking for help as a leadership skill. Why waiting until you feel ready often keeps you from your biggest opportunities. How healthy conflict strengthens leadership and decision-making. The career cost of constantly taking care of everyone else. This conversation is a wake-up call for anyone who has been told that hard work alone is enough. Patty offers a refreshing, practical perspective on what actually drives career growth—and how to start making those shifts today.  Thank you to our sponsors!

A missed delivery in a public health supply chain is never just a logistics problem. It can mean a child misses a vaccine, a patient goes without treatment, or an entire community loses trust in its healthcare system. In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott W. Luton welcomes Don Hicks, CEO of Optilogic, and Taylor Wilkerson, Executive Director of Design for Life, for a powerful conversation about using supply chain design to help more people access essential medicines. Don and Taylor explain why many public health supply chains face the same complexity as the world's largest commercial networks, but must operate with far fewer resources, limited infrastructure, and consequences measured in human lives rather than profit. Taylor shares how outdated systems, manual processes, and limited visibility can prevent medicine from reaching the communities that need it most, while Don explains why managing the existing network is not enough. Meaningful progress requires redesigning the system itself. The conversation explores why resilient supply chains must be built before a crisis hits. Taylor explains how better data, flexible networks, and stronger design can help healthcare systems respond to outbreaks and demand surges. He also shows how a single stockout can lead to missed care, greater health risks, and lost trust. The medicine may cost pennies. The real challenge is getting it to the right people at the right time. Don and Taylor also talk about how AI can make advanced supply chain tools more accessible. Local health leaders could ask questions in plain language, test scenarios, and make faster decisions without relying on outside consultants. By putting planning and optimization tools in the hands of the people closest to the problem, Design for Life aims to improve healthcare access and save lives.

What happens when we stop accepting the stories we've been taught about sex, gender, bodies, desire, and pleasure—and start questioning who those stories actually serve? In this episode, we're joined by Ericka Hart, M.Ed. (she/they), a trauma-informed, consent- and pleasure-based sex educator who has spent the past 15 years teaching comprehensive sex education at the elementary, high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels. Ericka is the founder of Sex Ed as Resistance, author of Nasty Work: Resist Systems, Explore Desire and Liberate Yourself, and co-host, alongside her partner Ebony, of the critically acclaimed podcast Hoodrat to Headwrap. Ericka's work challenges us to think differently about sexuality—not simply as something we learn about, but as something deeply connected to power, culture, history, identity, and liberation. Together, we explore how traditional sex education has failed to give many of us the tools to understand our bodies and desires, and how societal and colonial ideas about sex and gender continue to shape who is allowed to experience pleasure. We unpack the history of consent and what it means to define consent beyond a simple “yes” or “no,” particularly when it comes to access, agency, and pleasure. We also talk about reclaiming desire on our own terms, body positivity and the people left out of mainstream beauty and sex-appeal standards, and practical ways we can begin to challenge the messages we've internalized about our bodies. This is a conversation about unlearning, resisting, exploring, and imagining something better—a world where sexuality education isn't about shame or fear, but about agency, pleasure, consent, and liberation. In this episode, we explore:• Why “education meets agitation” is at the heart of Ericka's work• Rethinking traditional sex education through Nasty Work• The impact of societal and colonial views on sex, gender, and pleasure• Consent, its history, and its relationship to access and agency• How to reclaim desire on your own terms• Body positivity, beauty standards, and who gets left out• Tools for reconnecting with your body and pleasure• What a radically different future for sexuality could look like• Ericka's work, Sex Ed as Resistance, and Nasty Work Learn more about Ericka and her work at ihartericka.com.
