Podcasts about world needs

244: This week, I'm joined by Lindsey Meehleis, a certified midwife, doula, lactation consultant, EMT, CPR instructor, and neonatal resuscitation provider. Lindsey brings a truly holistic approach to birth, and our conversation dives deep into the importance of honoring the natural physiology of labor. As someone on my own fertility journey, I asked all the questions I've been curious about — from how to find a midwife to what real support during birth looks like. We explore the over-medicalization of birth in the Western world, how to prepare for a more empowered and informed birthing experience, and why individualized care matters so much. Lindsey's wisdom and passion for supporting women through this rite of passage is incredibly inspiring — I left this conversation wanting her by my side when I give birth someday. Topics Discussed: What is the difference between a midwife and a doula? How can I prepare for a natural birth in a medicalized world? Are epidurals and Pitocin necessary for every labor? What are the risks of relying on baby formula over breastfeeding? How to find a trustworthy midwife or doula?

Creativity is defined as “the ability to use imagination or original ideas to produce something new.”  According to this definition, everyone, including you, has a creative side. We all have vibrant and imaginative minds that can generate fresh and unique ideas.  However, societal beliefs often lead us to think that art is undervalued or inaccessible to most people. To challenge these misconceptions about artistic expression and to create a space where everyone's creativity is celebrated, I've invited Amie McNee.  Amie McNee is an author, speaker, and creative coach. In addition to her historical fiction, she has written four much-loved books, all of which discuss the realities and magic of leading a creative life. Amie is known for speaking, teaching, and coaching artists all over the world and helping them achieve their creative dreams. In this empowering discussion, Amie not only explores the various challenges that creatives encounter, but also offers transformative guidance and mindsets. She encourages you to take your art seriously and reach new heights in your creative journey.

Acts 17:10-12 reveals that when the Apostle Paul came to Berea, he discovered the Bereans were “more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica” because “they received the word with great eagerness” and were “examining the Scriptures daily to see whether” the things Paul was teaching were true. During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd shares highlights from his visit to Berea, now called Veria, Greece, along with insights from God's Word regarding the Bereans and how they processed Paul's teachings.

Today we kicked off our new series, “Man Up”. To Man Up is to do the difficult work of fulfilling your God-given responsibilities of personal holiness, discipline, and family and community leadership while maintaining a devoted heart before the Lord. It's personal, familial, and communal. Over this series, we will study 1 Chronicles 11, which tells the story of David's mighty men. We'll pull out some Man Up moments and points as we go.Website:www.experienceredemption.comFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/experienceredemptionInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/experienceredemption

The latest The Food Professor Podcast episode dives deep into the regulatory landscape shaping Canada's natural health product sector. Hosts Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois sit down with Aaron Skelton, President and CEO of the Canadian Health Food Association (CHFA), to discuss pressing industry challenges and opportunities.With 82% of Canadians using natural health products, the CHFA is pivotal in advocating for businesses navigating Health Canada regulations, labelling laws, and cost recovery fees. Skelton shares insights into the Save Our Supplements (SOS) campaign, an initiative pushing back against policies that could increase costs and reduce product availability. He emphasizes the need for regulatory balance that fosters innovation while maintaining consumer safety.The conversation also covers the impact of rising tariffs on Canadian manufacturers, making it harder for local brands to compete with international markets. Skelton highlights the urgent need for policies that support domestic food production and streamline interprovincial trade.Shifting gears, the hosts explore consumer trust and transparency in health products. With increased scrutiny over false claims and misleading marketing, third-party certifications like B Corp and Canadian Organic Certification have become crucial in building credibility. Skelton stresses that transparency—not perfection—is key to maintaining consumer confidence.In the news, we touch on Elon's DOGE cuts to the USDA and their potential impact in Canada, Loblaws' multi-billion-dollar investment, the pause in Saskatchewan's canola processing plant, and KFC's surprising corporate relocation from Kentucky to Texas, as well as the state and future of agriculture in the Ukraine and the practical economics of adding hens in your back yard to make your eggs.This episode is packed with insider knowledge on food safety, economic policy, and industry regulation, making it a must-listen for food professionals, policymakers, and consumers interested in the future of Canada's health and wellness sector.

What does it mean to lead with wisdom and spirituality in times of war? We explore this question through ancient and modern perspectives on warfare, drawing from the timeless teachings of the Bhagavad Gita. Shedding light on the mental state of leaders responsible for innocent casualties, we contrast their actions with Vedic warriors guided by duty and spiritual principles. Reflecting on Krishna's guidance to Arjuna, we examine the importance of fighting with knowledge and purpose, offering a stark comparison to today's morally complex conflicts.Our conversation reveals how propaganda dehumanises victims of conflict and explores the transformative power of spiritual teachings—highlighting knowledge and yoga as tools to combat ego and ignorance.Join us to explore sustainable spirituality and the role of local activism in creating a more compassionate world. This episode also marks the bittersweet farewell to our beloved co-host, Keli Woods, as we celebrate his contributions and wish him success in his musical journey.Want to connect further?Instagram: www.instagram.com/radhika_dasa/Facebook: www.facebook.com/radhikadasmusicYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/RadhikaDasWebsite: www.radhikadas.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/radhikadasLinktree: linktr.ee/radhika_dasa

This Sunday Pastor Jeff resumes our sermon series entitled “Called Together,” as we continue exploring various questions about what it means to be church together. We've already explored why you need us, and why we need you. Now this week we'll explore why the world needs us. Given the way many churches are these days, lots of people might say that church is the last thing the world needs more of! Sadly, there's a lot of truth to that. But what if churches lived up the fullness of Jesus' vision? What would that look like? And how can we be that? Join us on Sunday for a thought-provoking sermon.

Alexander De Croo  became Belgium's prime minister in October of 2020. It's a relatively small country, with about 12 million inhabitants—slightly less than the city of Los Angeles—but it's very much the face of Europe with the European Commission, the Council of the European Union, and NATO all calling Brussels home. Prime Minister De Croo, who saw the country through the COVID pandemic, says that the geopolitical and economic upheavals already being instigated by the “America first” ethos of President Donald Trump will present another stiff test for the leadership of not only his country but the EU. In this episode of HKS PolicyCast with host Ralph Ranalli, De Croo says the key to Europe not just surviving that challenge but also thriving will depend on its ability to raise its level of economic competitiveness significantly in the coming decades. While still a powerful trading bloc, the EU's economic growth has been slowing since the year 2000 and it's an also-ran to the US and China in the vital tech sector, with only four of the world's top 50 tech companies being based in Europe. It's also facing the challenge of long-term demographic trends—by 2040 the EU's workforce is projected to shrink by 2 million workers a year. So, as the US retreats from global leadership on fronts ranging from the green energy transition to human rights, De Croo says Europe must make urgent economic policy changes to maintain both its values and its status a leader on the world stage. Programming note: As this discussion was being recorded, a coalition of five parties—led by the separatist New Flemish Alliance and not including Mr. De Croo's center-right Open VLD party—agreed to form a new government, effectively ending his tenure as prime minister.Alexander De Croo's Policy Recommendations:Eliminate excessive corporate reporting systems like CSRD (the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) that add bureaucratic burdens to businesses without improving corporate behavior.Implement a non-permanent migration system that allows young people to study in Europe and stay for a set period of time, after which they are required to return to their home countries.Maintain Europe's openness to the world while protecting core European interests, and act assertively in areas—trade, climate sustainability, development, diplomacy—where the EU is already a global leader.Episode Notes:Alexander De Croo is the outgoing Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Belgium, a post he held beginning in 2020. De Croo has had a long career in politics and business, including numerous ministerial posts. As Minister of Finance, he helped create a framework for a major European recovery package. As Minister of Pensions, he carried out Belgium's first pension reform package in recent history and was involved in setting up a Pension Reform Commission. As Minister of Development Cooperation, Digital Agenda, Telecom and Postal Services, he promoted measures to strengthen human rights, enhance local economic growth in partner countries, and maximize the economic potential of the digital economy. He spent his early career as a businessman and entrepreneur, and in 2006 he founded his own company, Darts-ip, an intellectual property consulting firm that now operates around the world. He started his political career in 2009, running unsuccessfully for a seat in parliament but winning the chairmanship of the center-right Flemish political party, Open Vlaamse Liberalen en Democraten (OpenVLD). He holds an MSc in business engineering from Vrije Universiteit Brussel and an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University.Ralph Ranalli of the HKS Office of Communications and Public Affairs is the host, producer, and editor of HKS PolicyCast.

Even though I've felt some anxiety creeping in with the political landscape lately. And felt resistance that makes me want to crawl back under the covers and hide, binge The Girlfriend Experience all day or doom scroll TikTok for hours. Even though a part of me feels hopeless about what's happening in my country right now...what's been happening in other countries too… I know that my form of activism helps women experience three core values my brand and business stands for: EROS FREEDOM POWER Eros = a fully alive woman, vitality, life-force, turn on, desire, magnetism Freedom = choice, options, wildness, self ownership and expression, you get to be, do, have, experience whatever the fuck you want Power = internal, personal, sovereign, regulated sense of ownership over oneself, commanding, connected to who the fuck you are on the deepest level The patriarchy is designed to keep a woman disconnected from all of this, because it means you can be domesticated, oppressed and controlled just like they want you to be. But when a woman breaks free and connects to her turn on and power? Has her own money, property and wealth? Knows her worth from within? She is a force of fucking nature. The pathways we use to get there in my work? Sex, pleasure, kink, the erotic, money and wealth, business, sales, leadership, witchcraft and dark feminine rituals. No matter what I'm talking about, offering, teaching... No matter how surface level or "frivolous" it seems... IT'S ESSENTIAL WORK FOR WOMEN TO DO.  All of these defy the Patriarchy and restore a woman to her inherent state of eros, power and freedom. This work is urgent, necessary, a priority. Not emergency urgent...like you need to be freaking out...but like a knowing that as a woman, you need to be well resourced, regulated, as relaxed, grounded and connected to your power as possible. When you're regulated, relaxed and well resourced your capacity to hold the sensations of life AND take aligned-for-you actions increases. You have the capacity to show up differently than you do when you're dysregulated, frozen, stuck, freaking out. This is what we need to be grounded in right now so we can unite from a place of feeling connected, resourced, empowered from within. Like you actually have a role to do. Like you can take one small action. Whether it's towards activism, your desire for more money, a dream job, your art, etc. You confidently make the YouTube video. Or write the edgy post. Send the email setting a boundary with a client. Put out the offer you want to sell out with eager paying clients. It's 1000x easier when it's fueled with eros energy. No matter where you live, I know you can always benefit from more... Erotic practice, Nervous system regulation, pleasure and feeling connected to your power, aliveness, magnetism, sense of freedom and resourcefulness. The world needs you. It's true. You really do matter. You really are that fucking powerful. The world also needs you to be your most wealthy, well fucked and well paid self, because that's when you can make the biggest, deepest difference. In your own life, your home, your lineage, your community, with your own clients/work/art/business/movement and activism.  Listen to this week's Eros Money Power podcast episode for why this is so damn important...now more than ever.  Listen on blog: https://www.theamberrenee.com/the-world-needs-you-to-be-wealthy-well-fucked-well-paid-now-more-than-ever/ FREE RESOURCES: Get my FREE 2-hour class MORE MONEY LESS STRESS: Learn my EXACT 3-step pleasure-based process to eliminate money stress, break free from scarcity and FINALLY feel sexy, safe and relaxed with money WITHIN MINUTES.https://www.theamberrenee.com/money-masterclass/ Activate your dark feminine energy in only 15-minutes a day with my FREE ritual: https://www.theamberrenee.com/dark-feminine-ritual/ Let's get social, sexy: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theamberrenee/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theamberrenee Threads: https://www.threads.net/@theamberrenee YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheAmberRenee/

In a world that craves comfort, success, and easy answers, are we giving people what they want or what they truly need? In this sermon, we dive into Jesus' mission on earth, not just as a miracle worker, but as the Savior who came to rescue a broken world. His agenda wasn't about popularity or earthly success; it was about proclaiming the Gospel. As the Church, that's our mission, too. Join us as we explore how sharing the truth of Jesus, even when it's not what the world wants, is exactly what the world needs.Vicar Behm's sermon preached at Faith on February 2, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

There are a handful of universal truths in life. As the world and civilization modernizes it seems that society has moved further away from these truths. Franklin Swann would like to reiterate the basics principals that got society to where it is and one of those is that The World Needs Men. There are too many horrible statistics surrounding the modern man and many of these are due to the fact that modern society wants to have the male species kept in a box. This box is isolating and leads to depression and many times worse. The people in your life need you. The world needs you.____________________________________________ How to find Franklin Swann: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theworldneedsmen/ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-world-needs-men/id1721230340 ____________________________________________ Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Infraction - Training Day If you are tired of feeling lost, alone, isolated, and aimless then check out our coaching program specifically designed to help men become the hero in their story.

In an otherwise miserable week, this podcast is delighted to bring you a joyful interview with a drag cow. At least, an interview with the person behind the cow: the Swiss artist, performer and animal rights activist Daniel Hellmann. We chat to Daniel about why he decided to channel his campaigning side into something so wonderfully silly. We're also talking about a trigger-happy Croatian politician and Ursula von der Leyen's return from hospital.    You can follow Soya the Cow here and find out more about Daniel's work here.    This week's Inspiration Station recommendations: 'The Outrun', Danish spruce cookbook 'Mad med gran', and European TikTok.    Other resources for this episode  'Što društvo može napraviti da spriječi porast nasilja?'

The world is hurting right now. We're all affected no matter how removed from the pain we might seem as individuals, whether it's the fires in LA, the wars in Europe and the Middle East, or the general conflicts of ideology.  It might seem like we're on the precipice of destruction, but this is nothing new. Times have never been ‘normal.'  It's so easy to say, why bother? It's a fair question. Why continue striving to be better? Why pursue your art, personal betterment, or whatever lights you up inside when we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow? Is it naïve? Foolish?  Rather, the opposite. Naivety is to believe the world is bereft of pain. To be wise is to understand that the world is cruel, yet to harbor faith that things can always get better, that life, regardless of what's happening around us, is worth living.  We must fight for the world we want to live in. Pursuing what lights us up inside, whatever brings us any semblance of joy, is to fight back and not let the darkness win. We are all artists, and the world needs what we have. We must be the light in the world, as it's times like these where we need art, creativity, color, love — the most. We can't give up, ever.  For more Dare to Dream content find us on: Apple Podcasts:⁠ ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dare-to-dream-podcast/id1522983890⁠⁠ Spotify:⁠ ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/599zlweDDcmXP5YhOX6TFw⁠⁠ YouTube:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoimyPFCjO_qrJhH4ALafcA⁠⁠ Instagram:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/thedaretodreampodcast/⁠⁠ Vincent's Book, When the Sky Opens and the Answers Shimmer: https://www.amazon.com/When-Sky-Opens-Answers-Shimmer/dp/B0DSQ7MYRZ?ref_=ast_author_dp Join Vincent's Newsletter - Citoyens du Monde:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://vincentvanpatten.ck.page/⁠⁠ For Vincent's writing from Japan, travel photography, and more, check out:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://vincentvanpatten.com/⁠⁠ Join Gregory's Newsletter - Live a Story Worth Telling:⁠ ⁠⁠https://liveastoryworthtelling.gregoryrussellbenedikt.com/laswt⁠ If you're feeling empty despite your “success”, book a discovery call with Gregory:⁠ https://calendly.com/gregoryrussellbenedikt-1/discovery-call⁠

DateJanuary 19, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we launch our new series, "Come Alive: A Series on What the World Needs," by exploring the transformative practice of "centering down" through the wisdom of Howard Thurman and the example of Jesus. Drawing from Thurman's profound connection with an oak tree in his youth to Jesus's regular retreats for prayer, we discover how intentional pause and contemplation aren't just spiritual luxuries—they're essential practices for anyone seeking to make a difference in the world. This counter-cultural message reminds us that our inner work directly shapes our outer witness, and we can't fully come alive for others until we're fully alive to the divine within.ReferencesScripture: Psalm 1; Matthew 6:5–13About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.
