Beschrijving

When Amita Sharma found herself struggling with unexplained symptoms in her early 40s—brain fog, anxiety, hot flashes that disrupted her workday—she faced a healthcare system that offered little beyond anxiety medications and quick dismissals. Her search for answers led to the creation of NourishDoc, a holistic wellness platform designed specifically for women navigating perimenopause and menopause. This episode addresses the personal toll of navigating hormonal changes in silence. The workplace anxiety, relationship struggles (60% of divorces among women happen during these years), and the fear of judgment that keeps women from seeking help. NourishDoc offers a lifeline through evidence-based holistic approaches, including dietary modifications, supplements, meditation, and access to specialized experts—all designed to be accessible and affordable. https://www.nourishdoc.com/ https://www.instagram.com/nourish_doc/ Contact the hosts of A Queer Understanding * info@aqueerunderstanding.com * https://www.aqueerunderstanding.com/ [https://www.aqueerunderstanding.com/] Like, subscribe, & follow * FB @aqueerunderstanding [https://m.facebook.com/100077300390431/] * IG @aqueerunderstanding [https://www.instagram.com/aqueerunderstanding/] * Twitter @QueerUnderstand [https://twitter.com/QueerUnderstand]

Religion, Queerness, and Finding Your True Voice in Hollywood with Paul Cram

What happens when the people who should love you unconditionally make that love contingent on denying your authentic self? Actor Paul Cram takes us behind the curtain of his life journey - from growing up in a large Pentecostal family in the Midwest to finding his voice as an artist and openly queer man. The conversation explores Paul's acting career, including work with Woody Harrelson and Cillian Murphy, while drawing poignant parallels between performing on screen and performing heteronormativity to survive. Paul shares how religious trauma manifested in his life - from internalized shame to suicidal ideation - and the gradual process of liberation through therapy, community, and intellectual curiosity.  https://paulcramactor.com/ Contact the hosts of A Queer Understanding * info@aqueerunderstanding.com * https://www.aqueerunderstanding.com/ [https://www.aqueerunderstanding.com/] Like, subscribe, & follow * FB @aqueerunderstanding [https://m.facebook.com/100077300390431/] * IG @aqueerunderstanding [https://www.instagram.com/aqueerunderstanding/] * Twitter @QueerUnderstand [https://twitter.com/QueerUnderstand]

Finding Faith Beyond Judgment: A Pastor's Journey to Authentic Christianity with Romell Parks-Weekly

What happens when a pastor discovers the Bible doesn't actually condemn homosexuality? For Romel Parks-Weekly, this theological revelation changed everything. After founding a traditional church in 2002 while deeply suppressing his own sexuality, Romel's decision to write a book on homosexuality led him down a path of biblical study he hadn't expected.  This episode follows Romel's remarkable journey from a young boy who always knew he was different to a conflicted minister who married a woman despite knowing he was gay to the founder of The Sanctuary Church—a truly affirming space where all are welcome.  Contact the hosts of A Queer Understanding * info@aqueerunderstanding.com * https://www.aqueerunderstanding.com/ [https://www.aqueerunderstanding.com/] Like, subscribe, & follow * FB @aqueerunderstanding [https://m.facebook.com/100077300390431/] * IG @aqueerunderstanding [https://www.instagram.com/aqueerunderstanding/] * Twitter @QueerUnderstand [https://twitter.com/QueerUnderstand]
