In this podcast, we talk to Eila Kankaanpää about her co-authored JCPP paper ‘The long-term cost of childhood conduct problems: Finnish Nationwide 1981 Birth Cohort Study’.

There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.

Discussion points include:
- What the costs associated with conduct problems in childhood include.
- High costs justify the development and evaluation of interventions for childhood conduct problems.
- The implications are for practitioners, and what professionals working with young people and their families should also take from the findings.

The long-term cost of childhood conduct problems

Ukrainians have been victims of Russian imperialism and Soviet aggression. At the same time, they've played a central role in the creation of modern-day Russia. Faith Hillis, a professor of Russian History at the University of Chicago, traces the countries’ shared roots back to the 9th century. Hillis and The World’s Marco Werman discuss why knowing that history can help illuminate a path out of the current crisis.

[O sweet spontaneous] by e.e. cummings (read by Debbie Millman + Bach)

Identity, which is at the heart of wokeness, is often regarded as the most fundamental thing we have. But clinging too hard to your identity can lead to an emphasis on what makes us different, rather than what we all might have in common. In a conversation at All About Women 2019 with broadcaster Jan Fran, stylist and cultural commentator Ayishat Akanbi considers the radical power of kindness. Together they discuss the limits of identity, the gendered nature of image, and how to transcend the superficial to form meaningful connections. Watch Ayishat and Fran on Youtube&nbsp;
