    Challenging the powerful skin lightening industry

    Did you know that the global skin lightening industry is a staggering $8.6 billion force? In this episode of Re:solve Talks, host Brian Brian Mastroianni sits down with Amira Adawe, the Executive Director of the Beautywell Project, to uncover the deep-seated issues fueling this industry. Amira sheds light on how entrenched biases, colorism, and the lingering effects of colonialism have imposed harmful beauty standards, leading to widespread discrimination against people with darker skin tones. Amira, originally from Somalia and now based in Minnesota, discusses the dangerous and often unregulated chemicals found in many skin lightening products—such as mercury, hydroquinone, and steroids—and the significant health risks they pose. Through her work with Beauty Well and as an instructor at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, Amira empowers women, young girls, and families to resist these pressures and advocates for greater awareness and action within the global health community.  Tune in to explore how we can challenge these harmful practices and work towards a healthier, more equitable future.

    Nitika Chopra empowers others and shares her story of living with plaque psoriasis

    Have you heard of plaque psoriasis? Our host, journalist Brian Mastroianni, speaks with Nitika Chopra, a U.S.-based chronic illness advocate, talk show host, and social media influencer. As the founder and CEO of Chronicon, which serves as a hub for the more than 133 million Americans who live with a chronic illness, Nitika is committed to empowering others like her to share their stories and combat stigma. As the face of Clear Understanding, an awareness campaign from Bristol Myers Squibb, Nitika wants to dispel misconceptions and share the realities of what it is like to live with this chronic illness.  Shedding a spotlight on psoriasis is needed. A life-long chronic condition, a psoriasis flare can be greatly disruptive to a person’s daily life.

    How Can We Address The Global Burden of Disease Tied to Alcohol?

    In recent years, there has been much discussion over the ways substance use disorders — particularly alcohol use disorders — have manifested themselves around the world. This has been acutely clear since the onset of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Globally, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports that the overall global burden of disease and injury is attributed to alcohol at 5.1%.  What are we doing right -- and getting wrong — in addressing hazardous drinking and alcohol use disorders today? What interventions are in place, and how can we come together as a global community to address these chronic health issues that affect people from all walks of life, all over the globe?  To discuss all of this, our host -- journalist Brian Mastroianni -- speaks with Dr. James MacKillop — he’s a professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurosciences at McMaster University in Ontario, Canada, who led a global team of researchers who co-authored a paper in Nature Reviews Disease Primers on the current state of hazardous drinking and alcohol use disorders around the world.  Follow and subscribe to Re:solve Talks to listen to our past episodes and check out our website at ⁠https://www.re-solveglobalhealth.com⁠.
