  • Crisis Centers help

    I was helped tremendously by a crisis pregnancy center. Even 3 years later and a new baby, they help with a lot of things. Planned parenthood never once offered me free diapers. Planned parenthood is evil. Why hate crisis pregnancy centers when they’re funded by donors?

  • Need to take a break.

    I think there’s too much of a push to make content these days that we’re missing the point of the show. When there are fewer episodes per week, the show has a lot more depth. With each of the mini episodes and check in episodes (don’t forget the ads), it’s losing its important voice in all the fluff. Scaling down would make for better engagement.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

SMNTY Interviews: Dr. Sika Dedo
Q: What surprised you during your research, especially regarding health communication in Senegal?
I was surprised by the depth of HIV/AIDS communications, including school programs and collaborations with religious leaders, which indicate a strong, culturally embedded approach to public health education.
SMNTY Interviews: Dr. Sika Dedo
Q: What were some of the key factors associated with higher antenatal care use and better HIV knowledge?
Higher education, greater wealth, and employment were consistently linked to more eight-plus antenatal visits and better knowledge about HIV transmission, with younger age among new mothers also playing a role in knowledge levels.
SMNTY Interviews: Dr. Sika Dedo
Q: Can you explain the main objectives of your dissertation and what you were trying to measure?
The objectives were to assess antenatal care intensity (eight or more visits), the timing of the first visit, and HIV/AIDS awareness and knowledge of HIV transmission among women of reproductive age in Senegal, using eight-plus visits as a key indicator and a set of questions to gauge comprehensive HIV knowledge.
Female Firsts: Felicia Abban
Q: Shall we get into the history of Felicia Abban and how she started?
Yves explains that Felicia Abban began with a family-influenced photography background, apprenticing in her father's studio from age 14, learning the studio craft, and gradually building her own studio and clientele.
SMNTY Interviews: AJ Andrews
Q: How do you approach failure in sports, and how has your perspective on failure shaped your career and coaching or mentoring others?
She explains that failure is part of the game, that you befriending failure helps you learn, and she uses the FAIL acronym (First Attempt In Learning) to teach kids that failure is a stepping stone to higher levels of success.
