I'd promised myself I would do this in 2020
Big thank you:
@Ned_Arick who taught me Anchor
@becker_sbecker whose short <15 minute format I used as a model
@Ackermanjay who invited my first #podcast
@ACHEConnect for more podcast practice
To listen: nehalgroup.com/news
Ended up trying out two different audio editing programs, finding free (non copyrighted) transition then intro/outro music (went a bit down a rabbit hole). But for inviting Mark at 6p, recording at 7p, learning to edit and editing and uploading by 11p, I feel pretty accomplished.
There is simply nothing more useful than a deadline. As artificial as end of the year is, it is still a deadline.

Grateful to have such accomplished people who humor me with last minute asks.

Plan to now continue every week.

Now off to make end of the year donations....
So, now Anchor is working to distribute. Will take a few days. Was trying to come up with the perfect logo and that was a barrier to my hitting "distribute" button. Instead, just went with a nondescript blue-black background. Logo can be decided later.

I just found the bachata channel on TikTok. Guyses, this may be a hole from which I never emerge from. Also I know my go to Latin dance club is open. I will wait until it is safe. TikTok bachata channel it is.
Like wow... you can do that even when super preggers? Holy cannoli. That is another level. (Is she post dates & trying to induce labor?)

And wow at his hand styling.

I once, in salsa, elbowed somebody in the nose. He was a super good sport about it. But you know they teach you to go for the nose in self defense. He was in PAIN. So now I keep everything tucked in to avoid accidents.

This is definitely a problem. There are many divides. Digital divide. Then not everyone had a credit card. Not everyone has a bank account.
22% of Americans are unbanked or underbanked.

“The events of recent months relating to COVID-19 ..have brought increased attention to the digital divide...an economy that runs on the assumption that individuals have full access to traditional banking”

forbes.com/advisor/bankin…
“the unbanked and underbanked ..less education or to be in a racial or ethnic minority group, according to the Fed data. Put all of these characteristics together.. those who are unbanked and underbanked... who may have historically felt shut out of traditional banking”

Frankly every single person has some kind of privilege. If you have sight or two functioning legs you lack certain barriers

Acknowledging the same about structural racism is not insulting

unless you have cultural chauvinism/superiority & believe your own culture faultless
Personally, as someone Muslim, what I was taught about my purpose on this earth is the every single thing I “have” is only loaned to me and nothing I am entitled to.

You have to pay interest on loans.

More you have, more you must give (back).

Of course I face barriers too. Image
I don’t talk about religion a lot. I am deeply spiritual. I do believe Islam is “a way of life.”

I am less worried about reciting the exact right dua/prayer when stepping in a room with the correct foot.

Hadith can be disputed but this one is beautiful. Mercy matters most. ImageImageImageImage

Well that is lovely.
Welcome 2021.

I should just disable the news notifications. I have no need to know about homicides being up. And yes, I am, aware, domestic violence is a big killer. People home with their “loved ones” = danger, maybe death.
Again, I prefer pumas to humans many a day.

Conservatives try to fear monger & tell you it is some “other” (typically another race) who is the murderer & rapist.

Nope, danger is greatest from those you trust the most with access. Pediatricians know this. americanbar.org/groups/public_…
I have become extremely discerning regarding abuses of power particularly in faculty given this long history that is extensive across multiple elite boarding schools where reputation mattered more than protecting children including my own boarding school. I had no idea of it then

OMG. This is SO me.

I really truly do NOT know how people just sit on the beach. I literally have said exactly that SO many times.

Like how? Why? Are you all okay? Are you in a coma? Who just sits still and does nothing!?!? Sounds like torture.

But I am not annoying to travel with... because I travel alone. 😉😂

I go off being Ms. Energizer Bunny all over the place without any slowpokes holding me back. For difficult terrain or activities, I book a tour or hire a guide.

Did someone say kayak?

*This* is vacation:
Also, it important to mix it up. Must salsa on glaciers and on mountains. Yes, true, on occasion it gets tricky, salsa-ing in hiking boots on loose rock. But it only makes it more interesting. A challenge.

(I am also okay with salsa-ing on beaches - better than sitting about.)

“Memory” from FB: The time I could not breathe despite 6 puffs of albuterol.
Severe asthma attack.

#blackqueens - thank you for always being there. Of all the women in the world, if I had to choose one at my side, I pick a #blackqueen every time. You all are the real deal. Image
That year ended up a patient in ED twice cuz
-I was working a lot of 12-hour night shifts in the ED
-working as many hours as uncompensated/volunteer for ACA policy work including flying to D.C. often
-dancing non-stop in between

This is how I look w/peak flow ~200 (red) btw ImageImageImageImage
The #DrSusanMoore story really makes me think. I had a #blackqueen nurse friend who worked at the hospital & who knew that I don’t look sick when I am about to collapse. She was not caring for me, rather able to come visit me after she completed her own 12-hour shift.
❤️💪🏿❤️💪🏿❤️
