New technology is surpassing our ability to listen, but medicine is still trailing behind. Photo by Cristian Tejeda on Unsplash Women are dying at extraordinarily high rates from one disorder above all others. What is it? Heart disease is consistently the #1 leading cause of death for women in the United States, a fact that has remained true for many years, including the projected data for 2025. It causes more deaths than all forms of cancer combined and affects women of all ages. One of the most disturbing facts is that the risk is rising in younger women ages 35–54. In fact, 60 million women in the United States now suffer from some form of cardiac illness. Is it that the illness isn’t detected in women, or are the detection techniques insufficient? We know the symptoms differ in women from those in men, and that must be considered as well. Let’s think about how there might be a missed diagnosis in anyone, but particularly in women. You find yourself in your doc’s office ...

For Immediate Release: Dateline: East Greenwich , RI Sunday, August 31, 2025   If you're searching the swamps of social media to find people who agree with you while ignoring those who don't (bias confirmation), why don't you save the work and simply talk into a mirror where you can be sure everyone looks like you, sounds like you, and believes what you believe. It's no more of a “time dump” than what you're doing now and requires less searching.   Adblock test (Why?) source http://www.expertclick.com/NewsRelease/What-Is-It-About-You-That-I-Like-So-Much,2025312308.aspx

How Dexter Resurrection turned entertainment into prejudice — and what we can do to fight back Film has been engaged in proliferating the bias against those who are seen as somehow “ abnormal .” Beauty rules the day in entertainment. We’ve seen this in Charles Laughton’s 1923 portrayal of “ The Hunchback of Notre Dame ” and in the Batman series, the Penguin , where this character was tossed aside at birth because of his physical abnormalities. Of course, some suffer disfigurement, which provides the central thesis for the work. In the 1925 silent film, the “ Phantom of the Opera ” has as its main character a deformed man. Was that original? No, it was derived from a 1910 novel . Where else have we seen it? Sure, it’s been in history books, and people have laughed at those who were the court jesters for royalty , where they would mug and be foolish, but were chosen for their short stature and unlikely features. Why do we enjoy making fun of people who have a hard life as it is in ...

You may have noticed that I’ve been a little quieter than usual. That wasn’t by accident—I purposefully hit pause. Something came up that was too perfectly aligned to pass by. And it had a deadline: Sept. 1. The good news? I not only hit that deadline, I finished ahead of schedule . Even all the back-end tech (which used to take me weeks to wrangle) was smooth sailing this time. That’s the difference between being on the learning curve and stepping into mastery. ?? The Pivot Lesson Here’s what I learned: don’t be afraid to pivot when the Universe drops something aligned in your path. Yes, it will mess up your carefully laid plans. But the tradeoff is priceless: you’ll get a surprising gift you wouldn’t have had otherwise. (“Why yes, I believe I will have an ice cream cone, thank you very much!”) What About the Soul Mechanic’s Garage? Don’t worry—the Garage is alive and well. It’s still under construction, and thanks to my new super-fast computer, the work is moving along at an...

Those who make decisions that affect entire societies, or the world, must constantly weigh the benefits of actions against their costs. Certain policies are simply not worth pursuing. That is especially true when it is plainly obvious that enacting them will do a great deal of harm and little good. Someone in the White House or the Department of Commerce should have gone through that calculus in April when the administration was thinking about imposing tariffs on Lesotho, a tiny African nation. Lesotho exported goods worth about $235 million to the U.S. last year, while its imports from the U.S. totaled around $3 million. Because the U.S. ran a trade deficit with the country, President Trump decided to impose a 50 percent tariff on its exports to the U.S. In 2000, the U.S. Congress passed the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) , which allowed duty-free access to the U.S. market for over 1,800 products from sub-Saharan African countries. AGOA jumpstarted Lesotho’s textile ind...

By: Sharon Weinstein, CSP, MS, RN, CRNI-R, FAAN, CVP | I’ve held a lot of microphones in my life. Town hall meetings. Hospital boardrooms. Government offices. Conference panels. I’ve briefed ministers, board members, nurses, and CEOs—often in the same week. At one point, I was in three countries a week, translating healthcare goals into policy and practice. One thing I didn’t realize…I was already a speaker. Back then, an invoice wasn’t even a consideration—speaking was simply part of the work: advancing change, teaching process, and improving outcomes. A Mic-Drop Moment It wasn’t until I attended my first National Speakers Association (NSA) event that it clicked. I saw people with “CSP®” after their names and asked, “ What’s that?” In healthcare, the letters after your name aren’t just alphabet soup—they represent validity, commitment, and hard-earned expertise. The Certified Speaking Professional™ (CSP®) designation is the speaking world’s version of board certification. The...

Caring for an Anxious Elderly Mother? Caregiver Expert Strategies and Tips Are you dealing with an anxious elderly mother who is consuming your life? Over the years, as a care manager for older adults and as a power of attorney agent and guardian, I was responsible for the care of many older adults who had what my staff and I referred to as “high needs.” For us, a high need client meant an older adult who, because of health or emotional issues, needed and wanted a lot of time and attention. Some of these clients would call my office five to ten times a day to speak with my staff, who listened to their concerns and worries. If you are a caregiver, you may have a mom or dad who calls you at work or home multiple times a day, worrying about something or needing something that you don’t have the time to address in the moment. These calls can be distracting and frustrating. Learning to respond positively to anxiety for an elderly mother who does not have dementia is a skill that anyone ...

For Immediate Release: Dateline: East Greenwich , RI Tuesday, August 26, 2025   It is embarrassing to read about women on Linkedin who are telling a long story of their overcoming adversity, personally and/or professionally, and who decide to include a full-length photo of themselves in a low-cut, short, cocktail dress. I'm assuming they don't have good friends who can tell them that their success is sufficient, if it's real, but the glam shot undermines their credibility. (Don't write me letters, I feel the same about the men with the same stories and shirtless photos or muscular shots in the gym.) All of the stories seem to be based on similar template.

“Being able to publicly convey your ideas is one of the most powerful ways to gain career mobility and control of your destiny.” — Anonymous contributor to the Toastmasters International magazine You have one, two, or more degrees in your chosen technical area of study. You want to practice what your chosen field of study taught you. That’s understandable and makes perfect sense. However, it is not enough to sustain your advancing career path. You will retard your career path if you are not an excellent public speaker. Here are the three most important reasons why STEM professionals should strive to be excellent speakers: Transform Complex Ideas into Impactful Presentations Technical brilliance is only half the battle—without clarity, your innovations stay locked behind jargon. Good public speaking helps bridge that gap, making your ideas accessible and meaningful to non-experts, whether they’re public stakeholders, decision makers, or funding bodies. This empowers real-world ...

Earlier in the year, most economists and commentators predicted that other countries would retaliate against the tariffs that President Trump was threatening to impose on them. That kind of response was expected to trigger a full-blown trade war, leading, inevitably, to a global recession. That was the reason stock markets around the world tumbled immediately after “Liberation Day.” The steep financial market losses prompted President Trump to pause his tariffs for 90 days. During that three-month period, many countries negotiated trade deals under which the administration imposed varying levels of tariffs on goods exported to the U.S. from those nations. The levies applied were generally lower than what the president had threatened previously. The European Union, for example, ended up with 15 percent tariffs instead of the 30 percent the president had originally talked about. Although many countries kept threatening retaliation throughout the negotiation period, just a couple actua...
