Hey Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our conversation with integrative pediatrician Dr. Joel Warsh, where breaks down how to cut through the noise when it comes to prevention, toxins, and true immune support (especially for kids!). We continue the important conversation on vaccine schedules and also get into everything from gut health and inflammation to why so many people are experiencing chronic symptoms. He also shares simple tips that every family can start using today to feel better, boost resilience, and protect long-term health. PLUS, we explore the power of trust, intention, and listening to your intuition, especially when making decisions that impact your health and your kids. If you've ever felt confused about what wellness really means or what your next step should be… this episode will help you come back to your center. Tune in!! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS Prevention Starts Before Symptoms. By the time symptoms show up, the immune system has already been compromised. Dr. Joel shares tangible ways to be proactive with health, like reducing toxic load and focusing on clean nutrition and lifestyle habits. Over-Vaccination: A Hidden Immune Disruptor. While vaccines have value, overloading the immune system too early can lead to dysregulation. Spacing out vaccines, detoxing post-injection, and supporting the gut and nervous system can make all the difference. True Health Isn't Just About Avoiding Illness. Dr. Joel emphasizes that wellness is not just the absence of disease—it's thriving physically, mentally, and emotionally. Real prevention means building resilience, not just reacting when symptoms arise. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjoelgator/ Website: https://integrativepediatricsandmedicine.com/about/ Book: https://go.shopmy.us/p-21314744 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Setting boundaries takes practice: kids need to learn this skill and most adults need to evolve it. Practically speaking, boundary-setting starts with drawing lines on our kids' behalf. In doing so, we show (more than tell) what is (and isn't!) okay for strangers, family, and friends to do and say — from comments about body changes or clothing choices to judgments about life paths. The trick is to set boundaries while still encouraging connection, because we want kids to learn about limits without walling themselves off.

In this episode of ADHD Support Talk Radio, co-host Lynne Edris is joined by cognitive engineer and ADHD coach Jeff Copper for a fascinating conversation that may completely change the way you think about ADHD and executive function. Jeff introduces a groundbreaking model he calls Cognitive Ergonomics From the Inside Out™, which reframes ADHD as a problem-solving impairment rather than a motivational or behavioral failure. Together, they discuss: Why so many ADHD productivity strategies fall short How executive function challenges stem from ambiguity, not laziness The role of collaboration and communication as natural, effective accommodations How to externalize thinking and reduce overwhelm in ways that actually work What it means to "think like an engineer" when managing ADHD Whether you're struggling with procrastination, motivation, or follow-through, this conversation offers refreshing clarity—and practical solutions that may surprise you.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme of “Family Relationships” by discussing how to navigate Parental Estrangement and set healthy boundaries in relationships. We also turned to the phone lines to hear how our listeners handle issues with their family. We asked the question, “What’s one thing you wish you could tell your younger self about handling family disagreements?” We also had a few guests who discussed different aspects of familial relationships. Kris Swiatocho joined us to talk about how single adults can embrace their singleness without succumbing to the pressures of marital expectations. Kris is the Director of The Singles Network Ministries, which equips single adults with ways to navigate and embrace their unwedded walk with Christ. Kris is also the Director of Kris Swiatocho Ministries, which has a primary focus on single adults, women, leaders, and church development throughout the US and Europe. We were also joined by Rachel Faulkner Brown, who encouraged widows as she shared her own story and the ministry she founded, Never Alone Widows, dedicated to serving and supporting widows. Rachel also hosts a podcast called “There is More Podcast” and has co-written “Father’s House”, an eight-week video-driven Bible study. She has also authored the book, “Widow’s Might: 365 Days of Strength for Grief and Loss- Find Comfort, Hope, and Healing.” We then had Lisa Anderson join us to talk about how young adults can cultivate healthy relationships. Lisa is the director of Boundless and Young Adults at Focus on the Family, a ministry that helps young adults navigate life with biblical wisdom and guidance. She is also the host of The Boundless Show and a national conference speaker. You can hear the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

College students may be pros at pulling off last-minute study sessions, but when it comes to finances, cramming just doesn't cut it.Everyone often needs a budget, and for college students, that is even more crucial. Today, Dr. Kelly Rush joins us with practical budgeting advice every college student should hear.Dr. Kelly Rush is a Professor of Finance, Department Chair, and Financial Planning Program Coordinator at Mount Vernon Nazarene University in Ohio. Why Budgeting Matters More Than You ThinkProverbs 22:6 tells us to “train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” That's not just true for spiritual instruction—it applies to money too. The habits we form in college, for better or worse, often follow us into adulthood. And if students don't develop intentional stewardship during these formative years, they may face regrets down the road that could've been avoided.Most students know they shouldn't spend recklessly, but they often don't know where their money is going. Without a written budget or a tool to track spending, it's easy to watch bank accounts shrink faster than expected—and not know why.Budgeting isn't about restriction. It's about clarity. It's about choosing in advance how to use what God has entrusted to you. And it's a habit that pays dividends over time.Understanding the Time Value of MoneyOne of the most powerful lessons a student can learn is the time value of money. It's often a reminder of the orderly nature of the God we serve since there's a logic to how money grows over time. And in every financial equation, time is the most powerful variable.Scripture encourages us to think this way. Psalm 90:12 asks God to “teach us to number our days,” and Ephesians 5:15–16 tells us to “redeem the time.” For students, this means starting early: saving early, giving early, and stewarding their resources early. That's where the real impact lies.Money also has momentum. It moves quickly. And in college, that momentum usually comes through small, frequent purchases: coffee runs, streaming subscriptions, and fast food. These little expenses add up and build financial habits, whether you realize it or not.Being aware of how money flows—and having a plan for it—is what budgeting is all about.Tools That Actually WorkToday's students are digital natives. They're not going to carry around envelopes of cash. Of course, we recommend the FaithFi app because it's easy to use, customizable, and based on biblical principles. If you're a student (or a parent helping one), it's a great place to start. You can check it out at FaithFi.com and click “App” or download it from your app store.At some point, students need to begin taking ownership of certain expenses, such as gas, clothes, and possibly even their phone bill. We encourage families to approach this like a team sport: communicate when and which expenses will be transferred from parent to student, then open a bank account and create a game plan together. That transition is not just financial—it's formative.Working during college isn't just about making money—it's about learning responsibility. Students can find part-time jobs that offer both flexibility and impact. Perhaps that involves working at a hospital if you're studying nursing, or obtaining a referee certification or barber license for higher-ROI opportunities. Work that aligns with your career goals is a double win.What About Credit?Credit is another topic that comes up often. Should students start building credit now or wait until later? Either option can work, but there are advantages to starting early, wisely. We usually suggest a secured credit card paired with a basic expense, such as gas. It's easy to track and builds a positive credit history. The key, of course, is paying it off every month.Pitfalls to Watch Out ForLet me leave you with a warning: shortcuts are tempting. College students are particularly vulnerable to the allure of quick money, exemplified by the growing trend of sports betting on campuses. I believe it's a modern gateway drug. It's addictive, dangerous, and it escalates quickly.1 Timothy 6:9 warns, “Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap…” This isn't just theoretical—it's real. Good stewards don't chase shortcuts. They honor time, build slowly, and trust God with the results.College is the ideal time to establish a solid financial foundation grounded in biblical wisdom. You've got time on your side—but only if you use it well. Start now. Budget with intentionality. Steward with purpose. And watch what God does over time.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm leasing part of my 55-acre property for a cell tower under a 59-year agreement.

What does effective, ethical supervision look like when working with adults in crisis — not kids? In this episode, Dr. Ashley Fiorilli, PhD, BCBA, Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, and Founder of Be Still Be Connected, LLC, joins us to unpack the unique challenges and opportunities of supervising RBTs in adult residential and crisis care settings.Together, we explore why the traditional ABA playbook — rooted in discrete trial training, compliance, and early intervention models — often fails to serve adults with complex trauma histories, psychiatric diagnoses, and co-occurring medical needs. Dr. Fiorilli shares how she integrates ACT, trauma-informed care, and relational frameworks to help RBTs build flexibility, read the room, and respond compassionately in high-stakes environments where safety and dignity must come first.We discuss the real-world gaps in RBT training when applied to adults, including navigating medical and psychiatric systems, medication management, and how to identify essential vs. non-essential demands in the moment. From recognizing a client's “window of willingness” to letting go of power struggles in favor of trust-building, this conversation is packed with actionable strategies to help supervisors and technicians alike rethink their role through a more compassionate, human-centered lens.Whether you work in residential care, forensic settings, or anywhere adults with complex needs are served, this episode will challenge you to rethink your approach to behavior change, progress, and supervision.Listen out for the two code words to earn your free 1.0 Ethics CEU.

Bible Reading: Matthew 7:7-12"Why does she get to ride when I have to walk?" Caden whined. "It's not fair!""Your sister is only two; her legs aren't as long or as strong as yours," Mom replied, parking the stroller in front of the two-toed sloth exhibit. Caden continued to pout. "Emma gets all the attention too! You treat her better than you treat me. You must love her more!""Caden, that's not true!" Mom sounded hurt. "You know I love you and your brothers and sister with all my heart.""Then why don't you treat us the same?" Mom pointed to the exhibit. "Do you see the zookeeper feeding the sloth?" Caden nodded. "What's she feeding it?" asked Mom."Looks like fruit."Mom nodded. "What did the zookeeper at the penguin exhibit fed the penguins?""Fish, right?""That's right. What would happen if this zookeeper tried to feed fish to the sloth?""Mom, sloths don't eat fish. They live in trees!" Caden laughed."Right again." Mom smiled. "Different animals eat different foods and live in different habitats because they have different needs. Good zookeepers treat all the animals differently because they care for all of them."Caden glanced at his little sister, who had fallen asleep. "Emma and I aren't different kinds of animals.""No," Mom replied, "but you are different people, and sometimes you have different needs. Emma needs help with things like holding her cup and turning a doorknob, but sometimes you need help with things like math homework and piano practice." Mom, Caden, and his brothers watched in fascination as the sloth munched languidly on an apple slice. "I think God is kind of like a zookeeper," Mom said. "He knows exactly what each of His children needs. We may not always get what we ask for when we pray, but He always provides for our needs. He provided for our greatest need of all by sending Jesus to save us from sin, and we can trust Him to provide for each of our specific needs too.""Hey! Give that back!" Caden's brother snatched the cap off his head and ran off with it, causing Emma to start crying."Sometimes I feel like a zookeeper too," Mom mused as the family moved on to the next exhibit. –Suzanne FeltonHow About You?Do you think it's unfair when you're treated differently than your brothers, sisters, or classmates? Adults who care about you know that different people often have different needs, and it's because they love you that they treat you differently. God knows us and loves us more than anyone else. Even when He answers His children's prayers differently, He always gives us what we need.Today's Key Verse:And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus. (NIV) (Philippians 4:19)Today's Key Thought:God gives us what we need
"For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control.” 2 Timothy 1:7 “The child's development follows a path of successive stages of independence and our knowledge of this must guide us in our behavior towards him.

An art which can be practiced to perfection only when working among children.” Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind Submit a Podcast Listener Question HERE!

AUDIOBOOK: Audiobook – Now Available on Audible CGSUSA is excited to offer you the audio version of The Religious Potential of the Child – 3rd Edition by Sofia Cavalletti, read by Rebekah Rojcewicz! The Religious Potential of the Child is not a “how-to” book, complete with lesson plans and material ideas. Instead it offers a glimpse into the religious life of the atrium, a specially prepared place for children to live out their silent request: “Help me come closer to God by myself.” Here we can see the child's spiritual capabilities and perhaps even find in our own souls the child long burdened with religious information. This book serves as a companion to the second volume, The Religious Potential of the Child 6 to 12 Years Old. The desire to have this essential text available in audio has been a long-held goal for many. The work of many hands has combined to bring this release to life as an audiobook.

On Wednesday a new study by Harvard researchers unveiled new evidence that people who lived near Coldwater Creek as children have a higher than normal risk of developing cancer later in life. Researchers used donated baby teeth from 4,209 participants of the St. Louis Baby Tooth Survey (1958-1970) to assess exposure — and scientists, using the results of self-reported cancer diagnoses, found that incidences of cancer increased in people who lived closer to the creek. The study's lead author, Marc Weisskopf, from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, joins Elaine Cha and STLPR health reporter Sarah Fentem to discuss the new findings, and what they tell us about St. Louis' nuclear past, present and future.
The boys drink and review a pale ale from Oliver Brewing, then bask in the fortunate timing of their births. No, we didn't win World War II or build the postwar economy, but those of us born between 1960 and 1980 — the late Boomers and early Gen X — may have hit the generational jackpot.In this episode, we explore why we think our generation is the most fortunate of all. We were…* Too young for Vietnam, too old for TikTok* Raised in a world without smartphones — but smart enough to use them* Adults before housing, college, and groceries became luxury items* Raised with recess, real food, and real music* Part of a shared culture where we all watched the same cartoons and sitcoms* Witnesses to real progress on race before the outrage industry hijacked the conversation* Taught to fix our own cars, mow our own lawns, and go on actual datesThis isn't nostalgia for nostalgia's sake — it's a look at a narrow window in history where peace, prosperity, and analog childhoods gave rise to a uniquely grounded adulthood.Call it lucky. Call it blessed. Just don't call it boring.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act is projected to cut Medicaid spending by more than $1 trillion. The law changes eligibility rules, and some predictions estimate at least 10.5 million people will be eliminated from the program. “For some adults, Medicaid will step in and help pay for care at home, or if care at home is not available, for care in nursing homes,” said Rachel Werner, executive director of the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics at the University of Pennsylvania. “With the cuts to Medicaid funding, we are expecting that the availability of care in both of those settings will diminish, and it will be harder for people to get the care they need to live independently.” States will have to respond to the changes by either making up the funding gap or reducing services. On the show today, Werner explains how the funding cuts could limit the caregiving options for older Americans who need at-home care and place a larger responsibility on their families. Plus, we discuss how to start planning for long-term care amid all the legislative changes.Then, we'll celebrate a listener's win about her chocolate lab puppy.

Send us a textIn this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Paulie sits down with Dr. Keith Storey—Professor Emeritus, BCBA-D, and lifelong educator—to explore how PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) isn't just for schools. They break down how the same strategies that support students in classrooms can be used to empower people with disabilities as they transition into adult life and the workforce.Too often, students with disabilities age out of school and enter “the real world” with minimal support and little preparation for independence. Dr. Storey shares how PBIS strategies can help bridge that gap—creating environments that reinforce dignity, build skills, and increase the likelihood of success in the workplace and beyond.Topics Covered:How PBIS principles apply beyond K-12 to adult employment settingsUsing behavior analysis to increase independence and reduce barriersThe role of teachers and job coaches in shaping meaningful, dignified employmentChallenges in applying PBIS and ABA ethically in adult servicesReal examples of successful workplace inclusionWhy systems-level change is critical to long-term impactTreating adults with disabilities as capable contributors, not passive recipients of supportCheck out Dr. Storey's most recent book POSITIVE BEHAVIOR SUPPORTS FOR ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES IN EMPLOYMENT, COMMUNITY, AND RESIDENTIAL SETTINGS: Practical Strategies That Work (3rd Ed.)

Send us a textWe explore ambivalent attachment, where caregivers' anxiety and overprotection create uncertainty in children, preventing them from developing confidence and decision-making skills. This parenting approach, often seen in helicopter parenting, stems from good intentions but teaches children the world is unsafe.• Ambivalent attachment develops when caregivers are anxious, overwhelmed or uncertain in their responses to children• Children with this attachment style appear visibly anxious and often look to caregivers before making decisions• These children develop internal beliefs that they are unsure, others are confusing, and the world is unsafe• Helicopter parenting prevents children from experiencing necessary stressors that build resilience• Children need "predictable, moderate, and controllable" stress to develop confidence• Creating opportunities for safe failure helps children learn to navigate challenges independently• Parents should focus on developing self-awareness about their own anxiety triggers• Ambivalently attached children may be more vulnerable to peer pressure and substance abuse as adolescents• Adults with ambivalent attachment often struggle with decision-making and may seek controlling relationships• Healing involves consistent caregiving, creating opportunities for building confidence, and gradually increasing stress toleranceJoin us next week as we discuss disorganized attachment.Contact:podcasts@calfarley.org To Donate: https://secure.calfarley.org/site/Donation2?3358.donation=form1&df_id=3358&mfc_pref=TTo Apply:https://apply.workable.com/cal-farleys-boys-ranch/j/25E1226091/For More Information about Cal Farley's Boys Ranch:https://www.calfarley.org/Music:"Shine" -NewsboysCCS License No. 9402

In a world where “self-help” ($34 billion) and mental health ($83 billion) are billion-dollar businesses, they ask: Why do so many adults struggle with life?It is simple yet profound: No one taught them the craft of living well, he says.Think about this: Teaching kids' sports skills at an early age is common.Yet many ignore instructing their kids “proven practices” to think, solve problems, and build good relationships. These are the very skills that lead to happiness and a better world.At the I Believe in Me Foundation, they are changing that.Most of us learn life skills from our families, pop culture, and hard knocks. A few people stumble upon powerful life skills, and many do not.What happens?Adults stop growing in their personal and professional lives. Depression, Chronic Stress, and Anxiety. A life of discontent and a search for meaning, struggling with self-doubt and a lack of capability.Their call is to end the cycle and teach kids life-enhancing skills they will use for a lifetime.Here's What they Do, they Give Scholarships, they empower tweens and families with Life Intelligence Skills for lifelong success and happiness regardless of financial resources. https://ibelieveinmefoundation.com/ https://believebecomebeyou.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

Struggling to tell the difference between OCD and ARFID—or wondering if you or your client might be dealing with both? You're not alone. In this episode of Dr. Marianne-Land, Dr. Marianne explores the nuanced relationship between Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)—two conditions that often overlap and require very different support. Learn how to differentiate between OCD rituals and ARFID food avoidance, what misdiagnosis of OCD in ARFID can look like (especially in neurodivergent individuals), and how these conditions show up differently in children versus adults. You'll also hear how nervous system regulation and sensory attunement play a central role in supporting sustainable recovery. Whether you're a therapist, caregiver, or neurodivergent person navigating food fears, this episode offers a validating, trauma-informed, and practical perspective on complex eating presentations.
