Karena Cinta

Yonis, vaginas, and sex were ALL forbidden language for Ashley and her conservative church-going Liberian mom. But when adult life got too big and too real those family secrets would be the one thing bringing them together.

This story uses strong language, discusses sex and genitalia, and briefly mentions molestation. Sensitive listeners, please be advised. 

BIG thanks to Ashley Asatu and Janice Kennedy for sharing your story with us! Learn more about The Yoni Day Spa + check it out on Instagram.

Season 13 – Episode 30

The Divine Feminine

1828, 14 år efter Norges frigörelse från det danska väldet, läggs ett rutnät ut över lantbruksmarkerna vid sjön Mjøsens strand, och Mesnaälvens fall, i mynningen till Gudbrandsdalen. En handelskapitalistisk stad, en landstad, den första i Norge i inlandet. Den rurala kulturen får sällskap av den urbana. Storgata växer fram med sin panelarkitektur, hämtad direkt från lantgårdarnas mittgångshus.

Fram växer en stad som är en legering, en blandning av periferi och centrum. En självtillräcklig stad, med integritet. En liten stad, men med stora utblickar. En kulturradikal stad, med fernissade fasader och stökiga bakgårdar, räta rutnät och smala smitvägar.

När staden går in i en industrikris på 1980-talet föds tanken på ett OS. Det tycks omöjligt men det småskaliga och miljövänliga slår in en kil i den stora olympiska rörelsen, det lokala, autentiska, nära verkar lockande 1988. Och för OS rullar in vägrar man Coca Cola och man vänder ryggen åt en fjäskande IOK-president.

Resan till Lillehammer är den första av två om norsk urbanitet och stadsbyggande, nästa avsnitt handlar om Trondheim.

In the early retirement movement, becoming a millionaire is a crucial part of the financial path. While everyone has different spending habits, the first million will allow you to start pivoting so you can make choices for your enjoyment, not just for the sake of money. But when is it too late to start making these moves? Is there a certain point where early retirement, or retirement at all, is off the table? If you think so, listen to today’s episode with Courtney Robinson.

Courtney was raised frugal, and unlike most, she never strayed off that path. Buying old cars, eating at home, and seeing matinee movies were the norm for her, but this began to get harder and harder as her family grew. Courtney was raising four children on her own, making only $15,000 per year, with multiple debts to pay off. But now, only ten years later, she’s a millionaire with equity, retirement investments, a large cash reserve, and multiple rental properties.

How did she make the switch in the “late period” of her life? Courtney goes over the details that led her and her husband out of bankruptcy, into investing, and eventually to millionaire status. By no means was this an easy or quick journey, but Courtney serves as living proof that even if you’re in your forties or fifties, you still have plenty of time to build a strong financial foundation, and maybe retire early!

From Broke at 40 to FI at 50 While Raising 4 Kids

Après avoir découvert que son petit frère Antoine, âgé de 32 ans, fumait de l’héroïne depuis plusieurs années, Étienne décide de l’accueillir chez lui à Paris pour l’aider à vaincre son addiction. Durant près de 3 ans de vie commune, Étienne enregistre leurs discussions et raconte leur combat quotidien pour la réinsertion. Entre espoir et désillusion, moments de complicité, de fête et de disputes, les deux frères se rapprochent jusqu'à s’interroger sur leur relation. Que peut faire Étienne pour accompagner son frère ? Quelles sont les limites de l'aide que l'on peut apporter aux autres ? Confronté aux difficultés de la réinsertion dans un monde en déclin, ainsi qu’aux nombreuses tentations du nord-est parisien, Antoine va pourtant peu à peu sortir la tête de l’eau avant de connaître une fin tragique.

Etienne Karlen est coordinateur de parcours pédagogique à Paris. Il travaille sur un programme de recherche destiné aux personnes éloignées de l’emploi. C’est son premier podcast.
