A letter can change everything. For Amy Nielsen, it was a two-page note to her college-aged daughter explaining why curfews mattered—a window into Nielsen's tumultuous past as a homeless teen in 1980s Florida. That letter became the seed for "Worth It," her award-winning young adult novel about finding courage when everything around you is falling apart. Her novel, which recently earned the Florida State Book Award's bronze medal, transforms her five-year struggle through homelessness and teenage pregnancy into a powerful fictional narrative set against the economic devastation of Central Florida's citrus freezes. The result is a book that speaks directly to teens in crisis while offering guidance to friends and adults who want to help. Nielsen's work extends to autism advocacy  As the mother of an autistic son, she challenges harmful labels and misconceptions, emphasizing that non-speaking doesn't mean low-functioning and that autism may simply be "a normal part of the human genome." The audiobook of "Worth It," narrated by Shealey Hannigan, recently named a finalist for Best Audiobook of 2024 by Indie Inc. photos; courtesy of a.nielsen Send Papamutes a Text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1476169/open_sms] “THE OPINIONS EXPRESSED OR VIEWS EXPRESSED BY GUESTS DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT OR REPRESENT THOSE OF THE HOST; Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Castro, Google Podcasts or wherever you stream your podcasts.

The digital world has fundamentally changed how we make decisions, form opinions, and live our daily lives. Dr. Muhammad Atique [https://explorewithdratique.com/], author of "Digitally Hijacked: The Age of Influence [https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/digitally-hijacked-muhammad- atique/1146772329?ean=9798385238040]," reveals the startling truth behind how social media and AI have infiltrated nearly every aspect of our decision-making process. From the products we purchase to the political views we adopt, algorithms and targeted content silently guide us toward predetermined outcomes. The conversation with Papamutes [https://www.podpage.com/papamutes/] unpacks how our devices actively listen to our conversations, with AI algorithms capturing keywords that later manifest as eerily specific advertisements in our feeds. Dr. Atique makes a crucial distinction between positive influence that inspires us and manipulation that fundamentally alters our behavior against our authentic selves. He introduces the concept of "digital fasting" – not as a complete rejection of technology, but as a mindful approach to using digital tools at appropriate times while remaining fully present in real-life moments and relationships. The discussion explores how algorithm bias affects political discourse, the shift from degree-based to skill-based professional qualifications, and our evolving relationship with privacy in the digital age. Despite his concerns about technological overreach, Dr. Atique remains optimistic about achieving balance, drawing parallels to how societies adapted after previous industrial revolutions. Ready to reclaim your digital autonomy? This episode provides practical wisdom for navigating the complex relationship between technology and authentic human experience.

What happens when a beloved sports identity collides with evolving cultural awareness? In this candid conversation with Papamutes [https://www.podpage.com/papamutes/], Jack Moore—host of Moore to Consider [https://www.mooretoconsider.com/] podcast and lifelong Washington football fan—takes us on a journey through the controversial transition from Redskins to Commanders. Moore offers a fascinating historical perspective on the team's origins, tracing the Redskins name back to 1932 when the franchise began as the Boston Braves before moving to Washington in 1937. He explains how the iconic Indian head logo came to be, designed by Walter "Blackie" Wetzel [https://www.montanasports.com/more-sports/washington-commanders-to-memorialize-walter-blackie-wetzel-at-sunday-game-vs-giants] of the Blackfeet Nation and based on the profile that appeared on the Buffalo nickel.

The conversation doesn't shy away from the complexities surrounding Native American representation in sports. Moore references polls showing mixed opinions within Native communities, shares stories of students on reservations proudly wearing Redskins gear, and discusses the contrasting example of Florida State's [https://seminoles.com/sports/football] partnership with the Seminole Tribe. These nuances highlight why the debate transcends simple categorizations of right and wrong. Perhaps most compelling is Moore's personal story as a fan who witnessed the team's evolution—from attending the first game at RFK Stadium in 1969 to seeing the stadium filled with opposing fans in recent years. His emotional connection to players like Art Monk [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_Monk], Darrell Green [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darrell_Green], and Sonny Jurgensen [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonny_Jurgensen] demonstrates how team identities become intertwined with our personal histories and memories.
