Against this backdrop, delegates from across the globe are set to convene for the international climate summit known as COP26, where they're expected to hammer out commitments to reduce carbon emissions in hopes of avoiding the worst impacts of climate disruption.

Are you a victim to the culture of Mormonism? Have you experienced being shamed for who you were or what you were choosing because your loved ones chose the Mormon culture over you? Well you are not alone! My guest today is the amazing Jessie Funk. You may have heard about her, @dearauntjessie, from her singing and sharing her talent with EFY. Maybe you have seen her speak, or seen her work with the youth, her books that she's published or more recently her events and retreats that she is facilitating. Jessie is a power house and I was thrilled to have her on the show today!Jessie shares that for years she clung onto the phrase, "a testimony is found by the bearing of it". She felt that if she did all the little things, held onto faith, tried to do her very best to be as sincere as possible, as loving as possible, you name it that it would help her with her testimony in the Mormon church. But, it never worked.She shares that her transition out of Mormonism could be described as 'death by 1,000 paper cuts'. You can be happy and free. You can and will be blessed, even when you leave religion.See the magnificence of who you are. For more about Jessie's retreats go here: www.Especiallyfortruth.com Find her on IG & TickTock: @especiallyfortruthFor my 13 week leaving religion course go to: https://www.amandajoyloveland.com/leavingreligioncourseFor our Heart Opening Retreat go: https://www.amandajoyloveland.com/upcoming
In the lead up to World Humanitarian Day, marked annually on 19 August, climate justice advocate Mitzi Jonelle is clear that the climate crisis is a humanitarian crisis. While most people consider the environment “a scientific problem to be fixed by the scientists”, the Filipino youth activist is determined to put an “empowering human aspect” into the climate crisis battle, involving “everyday people”. Her optimism surrounding the ability of youth to move the needle towards climate action is contagious – “when we unite, there is so much power there”, she told UN News's Liz Scaffidi.
