In our country, someone dies by suicide every 11 minutes, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Mental health and suicides are issues that are touching all of us, including in rural farming communities. HealthCetera producer and host Diana Mason, RN, discussed this issue with Chris Pawelski, a fourth generation farmer in Goshen, NY, who had his own struggles with managing the stress of farming in the documentary Muckville. He continues to farm and to work on agricultural policy that he discusses during the interview. The interview first aired on October 9, 2024, on WIOX Radio.

Today’s politics divide Parties, friends, and families. Having strong political positions makes it harder for people who are Republican to live with their Democratic family members, and vice versa.

This ideological divide is not the only 2024 issue creating tension in families. The current generation’s parenting style can be different from how their parents raised them creating a generational divide and tension.

Guest Francine Smilen decided to take this issue on and created the Grandmothers Circle, a workshop series focused on ways to live and learn from these different parenting approaches and enjoy the role of grandparenting. 

Ms. Smilen is a Certified Executive Coach who recently retired from a career in training and organizational development. She has experienced her greatest joys and sorrows as a grandmother to Francesca, Talia, and Maya.

Earlier this year in the case of Loper Bright Enterprises vs Raimondo, the Supreme Court overturned what is known as the Chevron deference, allowing courts to ignore the expertise of federal agencies when interpreting laws. While this decision was prompted by actions of the Environmental Protection Agency, it has enormous implications for health. HealthCetera host and producer Dr. Diana Mason, RN, talked with Dr. Georges Benjamin, Executive Director of the APHA, about the implications for health and health care of this Supreme Court decision. This interview first aired on HealthCEtera in the Catskills on WIOX Radio on October 2, 2024.
