Every coach knows how important mindset is for cultivating change–but great coaches have the ability to expand beyond thought work. So what truly sets highly skilled coaches apart? An integrative approach that combines mindset, emotions, and the nervous system into an integrative approach that meets clients where they are. Many coaches start with thought work because it's powerful and effective. But on its own, it has limits. When clients struggle to change their thoughts, it's often because deeper emotional or nervous system patterns need attention first. In this conversation with Crystal Hansen, you'll hear how developing the skills to have this holistic approach not only improves client results—it strengthens your business by making you a more adaptable coach.After you listen to the episode, don't forget to sign up for my FREE live webinar on March 10th at noon CT! We'll go even deeper into mindset and developing a holistic perspective.The power and limits of mindset workMindset work has so many benefits–it's often the quickest path for your clients to gain awareness, take ownership, and recognize areas where a shift is needed. When your client has the understanding that they can change their mindset, they realize the control they have over their life and circumstances. This power can feel so good! But thought work is not the answer to everything–it's important to be aware of the issues this can bring up as well. If clients believe every problem can be solved by changing their thoughts, they may start blaming themselves when it doesn't work. The truth is that not every thought is controllable. The nervous system plays a major role in how we respond to situations, often outside of conscious awareness. And when a deeper emotion is influencing our thoughts, that's something we need to process–not “fix” or change. It's essential to learn how to recognize when emotional processing should take priority. Highly skilled coaches who understand both can guide clients toward meaningful, lasting change.A holistic approach sets great coaches–and their businesses–apart from the restSkilled coaches need this broader understanding of the tools they can use to truly do their service justice. None of these strategies–mindset, emotional processing, or nervous system work–are better than another. What works for one client may not work for another. Lasting change comes from knowing how to combine them to serve each individual client. A holistic approach will allow you to personalize the work you do to help them move forward in their lives–this is what will set you apart as a great coach, and help your business continue to grow. If you want to explore the topic of going beyond thought work further, sign up for my live interactive webinar on March 10th. I'm going to teach specifically about advanced mindset work and this holistic perspective that will help your clients.

Ever feel like you're constantly bombarded by societal expectations and pressures, especially as a woman? Well, you're not alone.  I recently had an eye-opening chat with Shawna Samuel, the founder of Mental Offload, and we dove into this hot topic, exploring how imperative it is to subtract these pressures to reclaim our time and energy. Shawna's insights on shedding the perennial need to please others, to make space for self-care and personal growth, are just the wake-up call we all need. Navigating the labyrinth of household chores and responsibilities often brings its own set of challenges. The talk with Shawna brought to light the concept of weaponized incompetence, and how it's often entwined with maternal gatekeeping. These patterns can strain relationships, but more importantly, they can impact our ability to trust and allow space for our partners to learn. We dug into how we can shift these dynamics and embrace a more balanced, equitable approach at home. Finally, we took a hard look at the mental load that women, particularly women of color, carry. This emotional and mental burden is often underappreciated, yet it can steal precious time from self-improvement and skill-building. Shawna shared practical advice on how to offload this mental load, making decisions about travel, childcare, and self-care that put you first.  Listen in and discover how to challenge societal norms, advocate for your personal space, and set the path for a life that's balanced and fulfilling. About Shawna Samuel Shawna is an executive leadership & productivity coach for women and the host of The Mental Offload podcast. She's the founder of The Mental Offload, which specializes in helping women balance demanding jobs and busy family lives, without losing their minds. Shawna has led teams across 20 global markets in her professional life and holds an MBA from Yale in addition to Advanced Certification in Feminist Coaching. She lives with her husband and 2 children in Paris. Get full show notes and more information here: https://elizabethsherman.com/hhs-1

Subscribe to stay connected and catch some funny outtakes that don't make it to the podcast. Why Your Reviews Matter Before we dive into today's topic, I want to thank everyone who rated and reviewed the podcast last week. Your $5 Starbucks gift card is on its way! If you haven't yet, please rate and review on your preferred platform. Your feedback not only helps me understand how the podcast impacts you, but it also boosts our visibility. This way, more women who are searching for ways to create a fulfilling life after infertility can find us and join our community. Advanced Certification in Grief and Post-Traumatic Growth Did you know I have an advanced certification in grief and post-traumatic growth? It's something I don't mention often, but it's a significant part of my journey and my coaching. When I realized my infertility journey wouldn't end with a child, I felt immense grief. But society often overlooks the grief of those who lose a dream rather than something tangible. This certification helps me guide you through that nuanced grief and find post-traumatic growth. The Power of "And" Today's episode focuses on one of the most powerful words in navigating grief and creating a fulfilling life: "and." It's a simple three-letter word, but it opens up a world of emotional possibilities. Society often presents emotions as binary—either you're sad, or you're grateful. But why can't we be both? Why can't we be sad about not becoming mothers and also grateful for other aspects of our lives? Breaking Free from False Binaries I remember hearing that you can either be sad about not having children or grateful that you don't have to raise them in today's world. But this binary thinking isn't helpful. You can be both. Grief is nuanced, and so are human emotions. It's perfectly okay to feel multiple emotions at once. For example, you can have a great day at work and cry when you receive a baby shower invitation. Both feelings are valid and can coexist. Embracing All Emotions Trying to force ourselves into constant gratitude or happiness suppresses other valid emotions like sadness or anger, which can resurface even stronger. Instead, allow yourself to feel everything. Replace "but" with "and." You can be proud of yourself and feel anger. You can feel lost without motherhood and discover strengths you never knew you had. Ditching Toxic Positivity We often think we need to be grateful 24/7 to love our lives, but that's not true. You don't have to be grateful for every difficult aspect of your infertility journey to love your life. Embrace the "and." Love your life and acknowledge the tough parts of your journey. Both can exist together. Actionable Insight: Using "And" in Your Life Next time you catch yourself thinking in binaries, try to use "and" instead. Notice how it opens up space for all your emotions and makes life feel more manageable and authentic. Join the Conversation I'd love to hear how you plan to incorporate "and" into your daily life. Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments or on social media. Let's support each other in embracing our full emotional selves. Thank you for listening, and remember, you are a beautiful human navigating this path of life. Until next time, take care and be kind to yourself.

Ever feel like you're constantly bombarded by societal expectations and pressures, especially as a woman? Well, you're not alone.  I recently had an eye-opening chat with Shawna Samuel, the founder of Mental Offload, and we dove into this hot topic, exploring how imperative it is to subtract these pressures to reclaim our time and energy. Shawna's insights on shedding the perennial need to please others, to make space for self-care and personal growth, are just the wake-up call we all need. Navigating the labyrinth of household chores and responsibilities often brings its own set of challenges. The talk with Shawna brought to light the concept of weaponized incompetence, and how it's often entwined with maternal gatekeeping. These patterns can strain relationships, but more importantly, they can impact our ability to trust and allow space for our partners to learn. We dug into how we can shift these dynamics and embrace a more balanced, equitable approach at home. Finally, we took a hard look at the mental load that women, particularly women of color, carry. This emotional and mental burden is often underappreciated, yet it can steal precious time from self-improvement and skill-building. Shawna shared practical advice on how to offload this mental load, making decisions about travel, childcare, and self-care that put you first.  Listen in and discover how to challenge societal norms, advocate for your personal space, and set the path for a life that's balanced and fulfilling. About Shawna Samuel Shawna is an executive leadership & productivity coach for women and the host of The Mental Offload podcast. She's the founder of The Mental Offload, which specializes in helping women balance demanding jobs and busy family lives, without losing their minds. Shawna has led teams across 20 global markets in her professional life and holds an MBA from Yale in addition to Advanced Certification in Feminist Coaching.

“As the acceptance of expanded human potential gains mainstream momentum, the question has shifted from “What is possible in our lives?” to “How do we do it? How do we awaken our extraordinary potential in everyday life?” (Dr. Joe Dispenza). Today we will look at these questions and take a shallow dive, not a deep one, as there are many layers to how exactly we live up to the full potential we all have within us, or like the name of Joe Dispenza's book, Becoming Supernatural: How Common People are Doing the Uncommon. Today we will begin this exploration and identify clear strategies to awaken the extraordinary potential in each of us.Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (that's finally being taught in our schools today) and emotional intelligence training (used in our modern workplaces) for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 5 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to uncover the most current research that would back up how the brain learns best, taking us ALL to new, and often unimaginable heights.    For today's episode #306, we are going to look closely at the work of someone I have been forbidden by my mentor and neuroscience certification trainer, Mark Waldman, to EVER interview. When I first launched this podcast back in 2019, there were many reasons for WHY I wanted to bridge the gaps I saw in the field of education and the workplace, with practical neuroscience. To do this, I knew I needed training and obtained an Advanced Certification in Mindfulness-based Neurocoaching, where one of the MANY requirements for this Certification was that I had to show an application of practical neuroscience in the world, or just show that I was using what I was learning to help others. I told Mark Waldman about my podcast, and had him of for one of our early EP #30[i] in December of 2019 and shared with him my vision of who I would interview, and where I wanted to take this podcast. He told me he liked this idea, but since I was going to use this for his Certification requirement, he said “You must never interview anyone who covers pseudoscience” and said I must keep true evidence-based science (proven from articles on Pubmed) at the forefront. I thought, of course, why would I want to cover fake science and spread that into the world, and then he said it. “You must never interview Joe Dispenza!” And I thought “Oh no!”  I love that guy. His name was written on my wall as a potential future guest and while I agreed at the time to keep the podcast focused on science, I never did cross Dr. Dispenza off my list. I first heard about Joe Dispenza when I worked in the motivational speaking industry and while I knew about his seminars, how crazy the results were that people obtained, and some of the advanced technologies he used like epigenetics testing, brain mapping with EEGs and gas discharge visualization technology (GDV). I also knew that some people, including Mark Waldman, would consider Joe Dispenza's work to be pseudoscience, but I always put the results first in my mind, and hoped that one day, science could help prove what he has been teaching for years. Joe Dispenza says it himself in the first few pages of his book, Becoming Supernatural. He writes: Dr. Dispenza let go of his critics and decided to move forward with wanting to share his message with the world. He believes in a world where possibility exists, and he will challenge our thinking using his own personal experience of transformation, through meditation and his ability to change his health (which really could be applied to any area of your life-change your results, finances, whatever it is you want to change) purely by changing our thoughts. This was one of the first concepts Bob Proctor from EP 66[ii] taught in his seminars. We had to change our thinking first in order to change our future results. We had Adele Spraggon on EP #184[iii] where she teaches about the importance of paying attention to our feelings before we think and act with her concept she writes about in her Shift book, so we can begin to make our habits work for us, instead of against us. So here are some questions I've been looking for an answer to since I launched this podcast 5 years ago. I wonder: Can our current, present day thoughts impact our future? Can we impact our own health (and results for that matter) purely by what we think? Can my energy influence another person, and can someone else's energy influence mine? Can someone's energy be felt? Can our energy field be seen? This is what Joe Dispenza has been working on proving for years, and he's been using the most forward thinking tools to do this, and one of them, GDV (gas discharge visualization) was developed by a brilliant Russian man, Konstantin Korotkov.[iv] I put a video explanation from Physics Professor, Konstantin Korotkov in the show notes, where he explains the history of his invention (GDV) that began with what we know to be called Kurlian Photography, that was not embraced by the scientific community. I know this well, as this was one of the reasons my first book, The Secret for Teens Revealed[v] couldn't be taught in our schools when I first began working with students. Jeff Kleck from EP 246[vi] circled Kirlian Photography in the second chapter of my book, and wrote “science can't prove that!” Well, with all due respect to those who think that are thoughts cannot influence our future, they can with GDV technology that we can find all over Pubmed articles, showing that we all have an energy field and we are all connected and “can influence each other.”  Konstantin Korotkov calls this electrophonics and explains it's origin that goes back to 1777 in Brazil and then Russia. I typed Gas Discharge Photography into Pubmed, and found hundreds of articles, including one that showed “Applications of GDV Imaging in Health and Disease”[vii] and in the Journal of Education, Health and Sport, found an article “The Parameters of GDV (biophotonics) correlated with parameters of acupuncture points, EEG, HRV and hormones.”[viii] This advanced GDV Technology shows “that we have energy fields…it can show physical energy distribution, emotional energy distribution, psychological energy distribution, and our relationship of our inner state to the outer world.”[ix] Of course, I jumped at the chance to find Dr. Korotkov, and asked if he would come on the podcast, so I could ask him some questions, and dive deeper into understanding how our thoughts, and energy fields can influence ourselves, others, our mental and physical health, and our futures. Stay tuned, he has agreed to an interview. In the meantime, he did let me know that he will be hosting the Bio-Well Congress in Orlando, Florida November 10-12th at the Orlando Hilton Hotel. So it looks like the answers to all the questions that I asked above, that I've wondered over the years, would be a solid, scientifically proven YES, to all of them, and Dr. Joe Dispenza has been teaching this for years. Before I share why I wanted to cover this topic today, I've got to begin with the fact that we are all connected, and have an energy field. Dr. Korotkov has been searching for ways to bridge the gap from the unseen world of energy, with scientific principles, and says “there is clear evidence that we influence each other.”[x] This is something I always felt, but never really understood. I noticed certain things when I was in my late 20s, and thought they would be too “woo woo” to share on the podcast, and this is definitely one of them. I began to notice some people would have brighter lights around them, and appeared to me to be Supernatural like Dr. Dispenza would say. I could pick out people in the seminar room when I worked with Bob Proctor who I could see had this bright light around them, and when this light was paired with a belief for what they were doing, was the recipe for them to achieve outstanding results in the world. It happened time and time again. I remember the first person I saw shining brighter than all of us sitting at a table, and it just made me wonder What's different about that person than the rest of us? How are they thinking and feeling? Why do I see and feel their energy? When I went to work with Proctor in the seminar industry, I had the opportunity to put these questions into practice, and became highly developed with this superpower. When I see or feel this heightened sense of energy in people today, (this is not a common occurrence) but when I notice it, I'll share it with them, at the risk of them thinking I'm completely crazy. The other day, my husband and I were out for dinner, and I saw it with the young woman who was serving us. She looked like she was in her 20s, or maybe early 30s, and she was hustling like I've never seen. Then I noticed this young woman was pregnant! When she was took our order she sat down next to me to catch her breath, and it was here that I told her “You know you're special, right?” She said “what do you mean?” And I told her what I could see. She looked at me with some level of disbelief, but also another level that she knew what I was talking about. I told her to find my podcast, and listen to episode 66 so she could see where my path began, and she wrote it down, thanked me, and then told me to look up the book Becoming Supernatural.[xi] While driving home that night I did, and discovered where Dr. Joe Dispenza's path began. So for today's episode #306 “Decoding Our Thoughts: How to Build a Better Future with the Power of Our Mind” I dedicate this to the young woman who hustles every night. She knows who she is. When most of us were pregnant, we could barely stand on our feet. Not this woman. She knows how to create her future, and it starts with the belief she has in herself, and her dreams, that is strong enough that I could see it and feel it just merely by her sitting next to me. I hope she finds the path that's meant for her, and lives every moment of peace, joy and abundance that she deserves for herself and her baby who's on the way.   Then I also wish this for you, the listener. I hope you'll look at Dr. Dispenza's work, that's backed by Dr. Korotkov's GDV technology, and recognize how far they both have come to share these evidence-based ideas into the world and then see how YOU can use them to improve your own health, results and future, keeping in mind that: Our current, present day thoughts can impact our future. We can impact our own health (and results for that matter) purely by what we think. Our energy can influence another person, and someone else's energy can influence ours. Our energy be felt, and it also can be seen with devices that measure this information scientifically. Just like some other books we have looked at, I want to break down Dr. Dispenza's Becoming Supernatural into a few episodes. On today's episode, we will cover: Chapter 1: Opening the Door to the Supernatural and Chapter 2 The Present Moment. At the end we will look at specific strategies of where we can begin, so that we can build a solid belief in ourselves, and our future potential. Chapter 1: Opening the Door to the Supernatural This book opens up with a Foreword from Dr. Dawson Church, who we interviewed on EP #98[xii] who covered “The Science Behind Using Meditation.” Dr. Church's interview[xiii] has now become our MOST watched YouTube interview, showing me that the world wants to understand how meditation can take us to new heights. I've also mentioned often that The Silva Method Series[xiv] is our most listened to podcast episode, all focused on using the power of our mind, to take us to new heights. Dr. Church writes in his Foreword that “Joe stretches the horizons of possibility by extending the boundaries of the unknown.” (Becoming Supernatural) Joe Dispenza opens up this book with a fascinating story of how he knew he was wasting his time, energy and talent worrying about what other people thought of him, and how he took an accident he had on his bike, where he was told he would never walk again, and used the power of his own mind, through a guided meditation, to heal his body.  “9.5 weeks after the accident, (he) got up, and walked back into (his) life—without having any body cast or surgeries” (Becoming Superhuman Ch 1). What I noticed with this first chapter was that Dr. Dispenza took us back to when he didn't have the belief in himself, or his own ideas. He was still worried about what other people thought of him. His belief happened over time, when he let go (surrendered) to what others thought of him, and moved forward, full force, with the belief in his own future potential. He had to let go, or break free. I remember Proctor would say, “Make a committed decision” when doing something. Don't ask others, “what do you think” and go in half way, you must DECIDE to move forward, with everything you've got. Then he'd remind us of the Latin Root of the word decide which a combination of two words.  De=off and caedere= cut and he'd remind us when we decide something that we cut off all ties to any other option. Decide and move forward, never looking back. When I was reading this chapter, it was very clear that Dr. Dispenza didn't find it easy to heal his body. He explained how pain-stakingly difficult it was to replicate this meditative experience he had where he was able to “see” and “feel” things in this special state called hypnogogic sleep, in between sleep and wakefulness. I'm not sure where those of you who are listening are with your meditation practice as we are all at different levels, but I understood what Dr. Dispenza was saying. Sometimes you want to sit down and force something to happen, but that's never how it works. You have to be completely relaxed, your body in a state of let go or surrender, and then the magic happens… That's exactly what Joe Dispenza did to open up the door to becoming Supernatural. Once he broke free and made a committed decision to teach this work, he described how he would live into his future potential by healing his own body first, and then showing others how to do the same with his seminars and workshops. He explained how he: “selected that intentional future and married it with the elevated emotion of what it would be like to be there in that future, in the present moment (his) body began to believe it was actually in that future experience. As (his) ability to observe (his) desired destiny (with intention) got sharper and sharper, (his) cells began to reorganize themselves. I began to signal new genes in new ways, and then (his) body really started getting better faster.” (Ch 1, Becoming Superhuman). TO PUT THIS INTO ACTION: MAKE A COMMITTED DECISION Have you made a committed decision to whatever it is that you want to do? Not one foot in, the other out, testing the ground? Are you fully committed like Dr. Dispenza was when he let go of worrying about what others thought of him? REMEMBER: “Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness… the moment one definitely commits oneself then Providence moves, too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred… boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Chapter 2: The Present Moment The way a person thinks and feels creates a person's state of well-being. We know this can be scientifically proven by Dr. Korotkov's GDV technology just by measuring the energy field from our finger tips, he can with accuracy, tell us what's going on inside that person's body (emotionally, psychologically) and then determine our relationship with this inner state to the outer world. Or in other words, what we THINK, on the inside, will show up on the outside. Dr. Dispenza says it this way explaining that “the familiar past will sooner or later become the predictable future.” (Ch 2, Becoming Supernatural). I heard Proctor explain it another way by explaining that “our results were a compilation of our thoughts, feelings and actions” and he could look at someone, and determine their level of thinking, purely based on the results they were obtaining. Now the funny part about this, is that many teachers explain the same thing, just a slightly different way. To determine a person's level of thinking, Proctor would ask them “what's the most amount of money you've ever made in one year” because he would quickly be able to see that person's level of awareness. He would say that there's no difference in ability of someone who earns $50K/year to someone who earns $50 Million/year, except the level of awareness of how to do it. Our thoughts, in the present moment, determine our current reality. If we don't like the reality we are in, it starts with changing our thoughts. To do this, we've often got to get out of our own way, and start to study and understand how our thoughts, feelings and actions create the world we live in. We've all heard that insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result. The same idea with our results. “If we keep the same routine as yesterday, it makes sense that your tomorrow is going to be a lot like your yesterday. Your future is just a rerun of your past. That's because your yesterday is creating your tomorrow.” (Ch 2 Becoming Superhuman). Whatever way we describe it, we will not be able to change our results in the future, unless we do something different in the NOW. We must be able to choose different thoughts (towards a new goal), feelings, and actions, to create a NEW, unknown event in our future. I've drawn out Dr. Dispenza's Predictable Timeline from Chapter 2, that shows us how “the familiar past will sooner or later become the predictable future” (Dispenza) or that we will never be able to suddenly jump to a new salary for example, without first of all thinking/feeling/acting in an entirely NEW way in the present moment. A NEW, unknown event, requires NEW thoughts/feelings/actions in the present moment. The ONLY way to change our future, is to change our current state of being. IMAGE CREDIT: Andrea hand drew the image from Chapter 2 Becoming Superhuman   TO PUT THIS INTO ACTION: DO YOU KNOW WHAT ENERGY YOU ARE BROADCASING OUT TO THE WORLD? This is where the hustling pregnant server comes to mind. She was working hard, doing her thing, and doing everything she knew how to do to change her future in some way. I'm not sure what her vision for her future really is, but I could clearly see and feel she was hustling to get somewhere, and I had no doubt in my mind that she would arrive, exactly where she wanted to go. She was broadcasting it out loudly and clearly to the world, and I know I'm not the only one who could see it. What about you? Are you doing everything you can in the present moment to create an unknown event in your future? Are you keeping your thoughts positive, doing everything you know how to do, with your vision held on the screen of your mind? If you've asked others for feedback on the actions you are taking, what do they say? Is there anything else you can do to improve? In your heart you will know if you are giving your all from the minute you wake up, to the moment you close your eyes and go to sleep. This is the daily grind we talked about on EP 38[xv] that's well known in the sports world. While working on a daily basis, and keeping our energy levels high, over time, with this effort, and being focused on what we are broadcasting out into the world, (making sure we are thinking/feeling/acting in a positive way) we will eventually create the space for an unknown, or unpredictable event that will take us to new heights of achievement. It happens in the sales industry when you work really hard and get what we sometimes call a “blue-bird sale” where someone calls you and says “I have money to spend, and must spend it by the end of the day” and you never could have predicted this occurring, but you had the space for it, and you're ready for it. Or you run into someone unexpectedly who connects you to someone else, who advances you in some way, to where you want to go. It's an unknown event that many people would say “woah, how on the earth did that happen?” Dr. Dispenza and other teachers would say that it was created, predictably, by doing certain things, a certain way. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION: To review and conclude today's EP #306 on “Decoding Our Thoughts: How to Build a Better Future with the Power of Our Mind” we looked at the following questions: Can our current, present day thoughts impact our future? Can we impact our own health (and results for that matter) purely by what we think? Can my energy influence another person, and can someone else's energy influence mine? Can someone's energy be felt? Can our energy field be seen? Then we: ✔ Were introduced to Dr. Joe Dispenza and his book Becoming Supernatural with a brief introduction to how I was forbidden to ever cover Dr. Dispenza's work, and why I'm covering it today. ✔ Learned about the Russian Scientist Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, and his GDV invention (that he calls elecrophonic imaging) that measures our physical, emotional and psychological energy distribution that provides “clear evidence that we influence each other.” We will learn more about how this device maps our inner state of mind with our outer world and much more from Dr. Korotkov on our NEXT episode (first week in October). ✔ Looked at Becoming Supernatural Chapter 1: Opening the Door to the Supernatural with some thoughts for you to put this chapter into practice in your daily life. Do you know what you REALLY want? Have you made a committed DECISION towards your goals? Have you let go of what others think of you, and surrendered to doing what it takes to achieve your goals? ✔ Looked at Becoming Supernatural Chapter 2: The Present Moment, with some thoughts for you to put this chapter into practice in your daily life. Are we aware of the energy that you broadcast out into the world? (If not, have you asked others for feedback on how you show up in the workplace or family life?) Are we doing everything possible to move the needle towards your goals (or whatever it is that you are working on)? Have we made space for unknown events to occur in your life to move you forward? And with this introduction to Dr. Dispenza's work, we will learn how the tools he has been using to gather the scientific evidence he needed to prove that our thoughts REALLY do matter for our health, results and future, were invented. I'm hoping to have interviewed Dr. Korotkov by the first week in October, so we will miss a week while I'm traveling, next week, but looking forward to what we will uncover, and see you in October.   REFERENCES: [i] Neuroscience Meets SEL Podcast EPISODE #30 https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/neuroscience-researcher-mark-robert-waldman-on-brain-network-theory-and-the-12-brain-based-experiential-living-principles/   [ii]Neuroscience Meets SEL Podcast EPISODE #66 with Bob Proctor  https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/the-legendary-bob-proctor-on/   [iii] Neuroscience Meets SEL Podcast EPISODE #184 https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/adele-spraggon-on-using-science-to-break-up-with-your-bad-habits-in-4-simple-steps/   [iv] What is Gas Discharge Visualization?

The first cohort of the Advanced Certification in Women's Sexual Intimacy (ACWSI) ended last month and, I have to say, that experience changed me as a coach, teacher, and a mentor. Listen in as Master Coach Lisa Hatlestad and I discuss the creation of ACWSI, why women's sexual health and pleasure need to be talked about without shame, and why coaches from diverse backgrounds are signing up for this program.   If you're curious about how to navigate conversations about sexual intimacy, want to gain more knowledge in this area, or simply believe in empowering women to embrace their sexuality, this episode is a must-listen.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://soniawrightmd.com/153

(03:42): Hi Kyrin. Thank you so much for having me on today. I'm really excited to get to talk with you. (03:46): Yes, I'm very excited to talk with you. We both were in Atlanta probably at the same time, but I never had the pleasure of meeting you. We have colleagues and friends in common and I love what you're doing and what you offer women. So let's dive into talking about longevity for women and what's involved with that. But first I wanna start because you are also traditionally trained physician, right? Yes. If you could share with everyone kind of your journey from what I call corporate medicine Yes. To enlightened Medicine. What happened there? (04:24): Well, actually I think it was mostly patient driven. So the practice that I started, I had probably half and half men and women and several of the women came to me and said, Hey, will you write these bio identical hormones? And I said, I don't know what that is, but okay. So I wrote for their hormone therapy and the the compounding pharmacist called me up and said, Hey, we love that you're writing for these but you clearly don't know what you're doing. (04:52): . And they said, well, can we send you to a class? So they sent me to this little quick weekend course on biodentical hormones and it was really just a very skim introductory course called get Out of Line. It was about how do you stop following the person in front of you and really be the leader in what you're doing? So I just got all of a sudden this hunger for learning about hormones and learning other ways. I've heard you talk about your toolbox got bigger or you added things to your toolbox and that really is how I feel about it. I'd gotten a bunch of people better, but there were several that were just hanging on and not quite continuing to do well. And so having this whole new thing where I could help patients with both, with adding in hormones and then as I went on, adding more things, the whole perspective of this not being disease centered, but being cellular or organ centered and how do we manipulate the way that the body responds to its environment? (05:54): It was a completely different way of thinking about medicine. I think I just continued. So then I found the American Academy of the anti-Aging and regenerative medicine like you and spent many years learning layer after layer after layer of complexity, adding things to my toolbox learning from other people. I think we spend a lot of time learning now, speaking with people like you, with other friends that really help us to learn other ways. We've just added ozone therapy and neurotherapy to our practice, which have been huge benefits. So there's so many things we can do for that patient that's just not getting better and oh, okay, well then maybe this is a matter of looking at how your cells process energy, how your cells speak to one another or communicate how your nervous system controls the way that your organs work. So it's been a fun journey. (06:47): Yes, it is. And I love that you learned out from a wanting more place. So many of us learned from disasters and then when we couldn't find answers we had to seek elsewhere. So it's very inspiring to hear your story and I want to talk a little bit about longevity. There have been some experts in the more mainstream medical field who have said, no, you can't really impact longevity except don't smoke, don't drink too much, and kind of the usual party line that everyone hears. You know, eat the sad diet, exercise more, right? All the things we hear, but there really is so much more that you can do to impact longevity. So how did you become interested in (07:38): That? I think it's because the patients, again, it's the patients who came to me and said, how do we make sure it really, the specific patients are the ones who are the entrepreneurs or the head of household or the family member who says, I want to, I've seen my mother much like you. I've seen my mother or my father go through this horrible end of their life that they, I didn't want them to go through. How do I keep myself from getting there And I have, they have a passion about something they're doing. Like maybe they own a coffee company or maybe they own a skincare line and they love what they're doing and they're passionate about helping people in that way and they wanna be able to continue to do that. So when my patients come to me and tell me those stories, it really inspires me to provide them that opportunity to continue to be so, I see myself as one of their team members in helping them to be able to continue to pursue their passion as long as possible. (08:34): I'm not necessarily talking about increasing their number of days or years, although that is something that everyone's rushing to, to, to find the research for and maybe probably has been doing for, has been for years. I'm really talking about changing the shape of your health span from a long oval type shape into a square so that you increase your health, you stay at that lovely, improved health all the way until you're ready to pass and then you go so that there isn't this sort of long drawn out disease state at the end of life that we continue to see. I would hope that you would be able to continue to do things that you're passionate about, speaking in front of audiences and teaching about hormones until right up until the day before you pass and that that you would not have that long drawn out, prolonged ending. So when I'm talking about longevity, I'm really talking about longevity of health span. Although the research is out there and currently being done on improving the length of life, I feel like if my length of life is, if my life is not full of health then I don't really want the extra length of life. (09:46): I totally agree , we don't wanna live in a disease state and currently so many of us once we pass 50 are in a disease state. I think it's over 50% of us are on five or more medications after the age of 50, which represents chronic disease management and all the risks that chronic disease carries. So increasing our health span, and I know some of you listening are thinking, you know, Dr. Kyrin, my health is a mess right now and I'm in midlife metabolic mayhem. Or I, you know, I can't lose the weight and I can't sleep. I'm not worrying about increasing my health span. But actually the same tools that Dr. Suzanne and I are gonna talk about are will also help you get out of midlife metabolic mayhem and correct and reverse disease and improve your overall quality of health. So you definitely wanna listen cuz she's gonna share some tools with you that we haven't talked about on the podcast before and I think you're gonna wanna hear this, I have to ask you first, you have this wonderful quote on your Instagram and I love your Instagram cuz it really shows who you are and your life. (10:58): So everybody, you definitely wanna check it out. We'll give the link at the end that muscle is the currency of aging. Muscle is the currency of aging. Can you talk about what that means? (11:11): I have to confess, I stole that from a friend Carl Leor who's a wonderful podcaster as well. This is about, we have to realize that the exercising muscle, it's not just that your doctor's telling you to exercise. Wow. Wow. That's true. Okay, I know about that. This is actually, we know that the exercising or the contracting muscle secretes signals that tell the rest of your body, this is a young person begin to unfold the D N A unfold, the protein processing that in a way that is much more youthful. So an exercising muscle will communicate to the rest of the body that this is a young person and that youthful things need to be happening. So even if you are unable to exercise, there are other things that we can do to help with that. There's a relatively new device called M sculpt that works on helping people who are unable to exercise. (12:06): Now it's marketed for weight loss, but what's exciting about this device is it's able to help with people who are unable to exercise or have injuries to actually as behave as though they were exercising. So it gives that same release of youthful signals that you get. I think most people are able to do some form of activity and even if you are, you know, walking to your mailbox standing up or sitting down at your desk, I tell my 96 year old patients that one of the things they can do is just standing up and sitting down from their dining room chair. Just getting that kind of activity is going to be beneficial for your overall health because your muscles as they move and contract are sending signals to the rest of your body to be more youthful and to produce proteins in a more youthful manner. (12:54): So then all the things that happen with age where we collect more junk in our more trash in our cells where we damage the cells to the point where they become like zombie cells, all of those things are less likely to happen because of the signals that our cells are getting from the exercising muscle. So there's a reason to exercise this, not just my doctor says I need to exercise or I'm trying to lose weight. Although both of those usually are present. The biggest reason is because of this youthful communication that an exercising muscle will give you. (13:28):Where are women getting it wrong over 40 with maintaining or building muscle mass? How are we getting it wrong with our hormones with the exercises we're doing or not doing? Why do we struggle with losing muscle mass? Cuz that's a huge problem for women. So where do, yeah, (13:47): I love the new, it's one of the hashtags I love. It's it's strong, not skinny. I love that because it's, it moves the focus away from being very, very thin to being very, very healthy. And the idea that one of the things I hear my patients say a lot is, I don't want to do any weight training because I'm afraid I'm going to be too bulky. And that makes me a little bit sad because I think it's one of the easiest, fastest way for women over 40 to lose weight. And so patients that I can finally convince, okay, you don't need to be in the gym, do on the treadmill for 45 minutes every single day. You can do a hit exercise program that's just 15 really probably we can get away with four to five minutes of high intensity interval cardio and the rest of the time you can do some weight training because that's where we get our fat burning. (14:39): Again, that's where we tell ourselves to choose to burn fat as an energy source. If is in that 70% maximum heart rate range, it's not in killing yourself on the treadmill, it's in that lovely 70% max heart rate range, which we usually will get with a good weight training program. Now I definitely recommend people use a trainer, especially if you've just started doing weight training. I have been doing this for several years and I still use a trainer because I wanna make sure I don't injure myself. So injury is a little bit worse of course. So I would rather not have that. I want longevity of my ability to exercise as well. So I have someone who guides me through the things that I do in the gym, the way women are because we don't have a lot of testosterone and particularly as we approach menopause or in that midlife mayhem, we will deplete ourselves of testosterone. (15:33): And so it's actually testosterone and the way you train that will build a bulk of your muscle. It's pretty difficult for women to build bulk. They really have to eat a lot and they have to do exercises in a particular way in order to bulk even at that. Most of the women who you see that are that bulky kind of bodybuilder look, those women usually have, they have given themselves some sort of hormonal treatment, not, not like menopausal hormones but additional hormones that will allow them to be that size. Otherwise women are less likely to grow what we should see to hypertrophy or thicken the muscles. Like you talk about bulky, what we instead will see is more definition of the muscle because you're burning the fat around the muscle, so you're maintaining your muscle mass, you're burning the fat around the muscle to be used for that muscle to contract. So typically I recommend that women over 40 really put the majority of their energy in exercise toward muscle, toward lifting weight, some sort of resistance exercise. (16:39): Okay. Yes. And I find that maybe it's post Jane Fonda aerobic exercise era when people say exercise, like we have in our minds says women over 40, oh Jane Fonda, right? But I think it's time that we changed that visual and I don't have a visual representation of who represents probably Deborah Atkinson , you know, flipping 50. She talks about that all the time. And you don't need more aerobics, you need more resistance training. You mentioned testosterone and that's something that I'm very passionate about because you know, the official corporate medical statement summary on testosterone use in women is basically no. And it's so vital for our brain function neurotransmitters, our bone mass, our muscle. Can you talk about the importance of getting your testosterone tested and treated? (17:37): Yes, over our lifetime, even including in our twenties, testosterone is one of the greatest hormones that's produced and I mean greatest in volume of hormones that's produced by women's bodies, which doesn't seem to be, that doesn't make a lot of sense in our minds, but this is the reason why it's so frustrating. So I just competed in a power lifting competition and I was required to come off of my testosterone in order to com do that competition. I think this is a travesty because this, I'm gonna spend the next several months dealing with my midlife mayhem again as I cover the loss of testosterone and coming back, getting back on it again. And I don't take a huge dose of testosterone. I'm, I'm really just at a moderate appropriate dose because without it, my testosterone, of course I'm 50, my testosterone is very low with testosterone, I sleep better, I'm more calm. Things around me don't bother me. And that's the case with most of my patients. Much like you I'm sure is that they're able to sleep better at night. I tell women things like socks on the floor don't bother you . (18:46): And it's because if you think about it, your husband doesn't, it doesn't bother him. When he sees socks on the floor, he walks right past it. It's because our minds are so diffusely aware. If you're familiar with the work of Allison Armstrong, we have such diffuse awareness when we're in that estrogen cycle and if we are on testosterone, it really helps with bringing some focus to our activities in our day. So I'm a big fan of testosterone and again, not in a, an overdose or super physiologic dosing, but in a necessary for functioning to day-to-day. The dose I take is about one 10th or one 15th. The dose of that I give my husband, it's a way smaller dose, but it's perfect in just what I need in order to function properly in on day-to-day. (19:31): Right. And I love that you brought up Alison Armstrong. I'll just say a little bit about her for everybody listening. She's basically, I guess a woman's dating coach, but she really is very clear about the different psychological profiles that is related to hormones for men and women and how we function differently because of the our hormonal milieu. And so I love that you shared that about our brain because testosterone is super important for that dopamine and the focus and the drive and not only our muscles and our bones, but it's very important. All right, so what else is important when we're looking at increasing our health span? (20:15): I think several things are important. One of the ways that muscle also works. And so this is, it's, I'm gonna tie this into what we just talked about is by increasing the ability of your cells to produce protein and increasing the ability of the cells to produce energy. So I hear a lot of women that are in that midlife mayhem talk about being fatigued. So one of the things that we can use, there's a old drug that was found on Easter Island that is sort of like an old antibiotic, although it functions differently than that. It's F D A approved for use for kidney transplant patients and that's in a fairly high dose. When we use this in a much lower dose, we can find that that we are able to turn off the go, go, go, go, go mi mindset of ourselves and turn on the rest and repair mindset of ourselves. (21:10): Those two aspects of how we see and use energy in ourselves need to be in a really good balance, the calm down, rest and relax as well as the go-go, let's build, let's grow, let's develop. We want that, but we also want the rest and relax. It needs to be in this good balance. Much like we've probably talked about with the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Those all exist, those dichotomies exist at the cellular level. So one of the things that it's drug is called rapamycin. It's used in much, much smaller doses and there are some really interesting studies about it improving the longevity and the number of years of mice and sea elegance, which is a worm that has very similar D n A to ours as opposed to dogs that don't have similar the for using animals for research rats or mice. (22:03): And the sea elegance has a very similar d n A to us so we can use those to study and rapamycin, because it's been around for a long time, it's been used for many, many years treating kidney transplant patients. We're using this in really, really tiny infrequent doses for every once in a while to give your cells a rep and a chance to recover from all the things we do in a day. So that also sort of, so rapamycin is one option, but we also use that rolls over into the idea of how important sleep is. So one of the things that's the tenant of health for me is going to bed at eight 30. And the reason this is important is because during sleep, this is when your brain opens up what we call the glymphatic drainage system. This is sort of the trash or the sewer system of the brain. (22:52): It's closed during the day and at night while you're sleeping. It opens up as long as the body's not doing anything like digesting food. So this is one of the reasons why your Dr. May say for you to wait at least two hours from eating to going to bed because that gives your body time to handle the food and then it can focus on that recovery and repair. During sleep is when that glymphatic drainage system opens up, all the trash can be cleared away. The immune cells can take the trash, bundle it up, put it out into the glymphatic to be moved away. The systems can be all things can be filed away like where they're supposed to be in the brain and the next morning you can wake up refreshed because all of that was able to happen. So in our patients who aren't sleeping, we need to be really focused and helping them to make that a priority, not only as far as setting aside the amount of time that's necessary, but also in providing them ways to help them with sleep. (23:52): That list is very, very long, but getting adequate number of hours of sleep and the research is around seven to nine hours per night and then also getting enough of the kinds of sleep we need. So the same thing happens during sleep on a nightly basis in the brain. That can happen during the day with using something like rapamycin. The other interesting thing is doing a 12 hour fast overnight. And that's probably the only thing that's been proven in humans to promote longevity is calorie restriction. This is really hard to do long-term, so it's not something that we, that we definitely recommend for everyone, but one of the things I do recommend for everyone is a 12 hour overnight fast. This is, it seems like 12 hours overnight. That seems like it would be easy. Well if you eat dinner at six o'clock at night and don't eat anything again until six o'clock in the morning, that sounds pretty easy. (24:46): But most of my patients have a hard time getting that 12 hours in. What's interesting is if you fast for that 12 hours, we know that the brain will begin to produce a protein or a fat rather called butyrate and butyrate is used by the cells as an alternate fuel source and it triggers that same response as the rapamycin does to help the body with that process of autophagy or rest and relaxation. So an overnight fast of 12 hours is cheaper than getting rapamycin of course, and is a really simple way that everyone at home can be involved in their own longevity is by setting aside that time not only for adequate rest but also for fasting overnight (25:30): Regarding fasting because it's very popular right now all kinds of fast dry, fast wet, fast water, fast juice fast. But intermittent fasting is a huge topic and there's several best selling books on it. What about longer intervals of fasting? What is the research saying about that? (25:50): It's, I think the research is still up in the air and what really works in the research is fasting in the morning and is early, I'm sorry, is is evening fasting, which is much more difficult for most people to do. Most people don't mind fasting in the morning, but they have a really hard time fasting in the evening and as we just talked about, it runs right into your ability of your body to rest and and recuperate and especially the brain to repair the things it needs to overnight if you're bumping that up too close to your sleep time. So I really encourage people if they can, to push that fasting window up against their dinnertime and make that dinnertime be earlier in the evening. Then you get that full 12 hours of overnight sleep, I mean of overnight fasting for the brain to be able to begin producing butyrate so that it can cause all the healing that the cells need through that time when it's produced. (26:46): Okay, alright. I want us continue on tools to improve longevity, but I wanted to ask you about how do people know how old their body thinks they are? I mean sure we have a chronological age, but for some of us, and I've seen some inventories where people can do answer questions about their health and then it spits out kind of what their, and I forget what Eric Braverman calls it, their true age and your, you can find out does your, is your body functioning at an older age or a younger age or your age appropriate? Where are you? But there's some clinical tests that can be used, correct? (27:27): Yes. So I think the simplest way for us to look at that is there's a couple of simple markers that are probably on everyone's last lab test. They're not going to give you a specific age, but it is something for you to monitor over time and it's again, something probably everyone's had done on their most recent lab tests. If you look on your complete metabolic panel, one of the tests that's on there is called an albumin. The goal for albumin is for the level to be four and a half or greater. If you're four and a half or if you're less than four and a half, your risk of aging and your risk of mortality from all causes goes up. So I just encourage people to watch their albumin level. We wanna see that it's either staying the same or improving and that's a general good marker of how well your health overall is. (28:20): The second easy simple marker is in your complete blood cell count and that is a lymphocyte count. We want that lymphocyte count to be greater than 35. When you, as we age, one of the things that causes us aging is that your immune system declines in its ability to function optimally. We know that this has happened with our most recent virus that's gone through and most of the people who were unable to tolerate that were people who were elderly or over 75 80. And part of that is because their immune system is also aging. One of the ways we can look at that is looking at the lymphocyte count, which is look is one of your immune cells and we want that level to be greater than 35. A less than 35 is concerning that you will not be able to fight off viruses or cancer should the two of them come your way. (29:12): And so those are two things you can monitor generally in every lab test. Now a little bit more specific are two different tests and one is called a beta-glucan assay. This can let us know whether or not you also gives you an approximation of what your age is because we accumulate this as we age. There are specific labs that do this. The second one is called true age and it is an epigenetic test, which means you know, you have, you know about people who have genetic variations in their D N A from birth and they have changes that make them more susceptible to things like down syndrome for example. Well those various genes and all of our genes will change the way they are expressed based on what's happening in your environment. So a more appropriate environmentally induced aging marker is this epigenetic test. They're looking for specific changes on specific pieces of D N A that are more common with aging and they can give you both a rate of aging as well as an proposed current age based on all the patients they've had do the test. (30:25): And so there are several companies that do a test like this. I use one called True Age, there are lots of others. And they look at your epigenetics to see whether you are how quickly you are approaching aging. I really am concerned about the rate of aging. So for every one year of age, how many years older are you? And I'd like to see that number be one or less so that you are not continuing aging. And again, one of the ways we can fix that is what we've already talked about with contracting muscle and adequate sleep and overnight fasting. (31:00): All right. Where are we with telomere length at this point clinically? What are your thoughts on that? (31:06): So what's interesting is telomere length, it tends to be associated with aging. We know that again with the most recent virus that people lost a good bit of telomere length. The jury is still out whether extending telomeres will affect your longevity in the long run. So we are still looking at that research to see whether or not there is a benefit. We know that a shorter telomere length is associated with a shorter lifespan, but it's not necessarily correlated with a lengthening of that. Telomere is not necessarily corded with a lengthening of lifespan. So again, the jury is still out. There are several companies that have products that are beneficial in lengthening T telomeres and I am not convinced of the information yet. It's the jury is still out about whether that telomere lengthening will extend lifespan. (32:00): Right. And just for anyone who doesn't know whatt mirrors are, they're kind of like the binding on your end of your shoelaces that you have on all strands of D N A that kind of holds it together and they shorten over your lifespan and like Dr. Suzanne was saying, you're at increased risk for certain diseases when they're shorter. So that's what telomeres are. Alright, so we're working out at the gym doing, getting our muscle mass, we're doing resistance training, we're sleeping, we're doing a 12 hour fast. What other things have been shown or clinically (32:38): Proven to help us improve our health spans? There was a big study that was done called the trim study that's probably the most significant one that's out there. And it was done with growth hormone, growth hormone and the, the study was intended to see whether or not growth hormone would improve lifespan and giving people growth hormone would improve their lifespan. Well one of the side effects of growth hormone is increase in blood sugar. So they also gave those patients metformin to cut counteract the increase in blood sugar from the growth hormone. The other thing that growth hormone is known to do is increase cortisol or stress hormone. Who needs that? So they gave those people D H E A to help counteract this, the ef, the growth hormone side effect of raising cortisol. So the study was done with growth hormone, D H E A and D and metformin. (33:31): So this is one of the places where the hype around metformin began. Metformin has some benefits in, this is what I was getting to. Metformin has some benefits in improving lifespan in animal studies. The concern I have with metformin is its mechanism of action. Number one, its mechanism of action is at the mitochondria or the energy generating level. This interferes with the ability of cytochrome one, which is one of the little things that helps your mitochondria to make energy. It interferes with that function. So I don't want any of my mitochondria to be fun to be messed with. I get concerned when I see that when I hear about mitochondria because mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the causes of aging. So it just doesn't jive in my mind to use metformin, although there's a lot of research out there that's very interesting and ongoing about using metformin for longevity. (34:26): It just makes me nervous because of its mechanism of action. The second thing that metformin does, mechanism of action-wise is affects your microbiome. Which if you have a terrible microbiome might be a good idea if you have a great microbiome. I don't wanna mess with my microbiome. I think our intestines speak volumes to our entire bodies. I think the food that we put in tells the microbiome to be what it is and it will send signals back to our body to be more youthful, to be more energetic, to be more calm. All the things. I listened to your last podcast about anxiety and she was right on about the microbiome really affecting our anxiety. So I get concerned about, about messing with the microbiome if we don't have to. So metformin is a little concerning to me. The study was done with growth hormone and last I understood they were actually looking at using an a peptide called liraglutide, which does not have the glucose raising or the cortisol raising effects of me of growth hormone. So I'm interested to see the research on that. That's still pending lilu most people are probably familiar with it as as Victoza or Saxenda, which are, which is used for weight loss. (35:37): Okay, awesome. All right, so what other tools are available? You mentioned peptides, you are an expert in peptides, you have all book coming out on this topic. What we've covered a little bit of that on the podcast, but can you speak to peptides that might specifically improve health span? (35:57): It's one of the things I think is really interesting and helpful because of how they work. I think there's two in particular that would be beneficial and there's several of them probably that would be helpful. But let's just talk about two, I think thymus and alpha one, which is comes from your thymus thymus gland and can help to rebalance the way your immune system functions. When we get a vaccine, when we have an autoimmune disease, our immune system is really shifted over to one side where it's primarily focused on making antibodies. We don't want our immune system to be focused in that direction because then it's unable to fight things like viruses and cancer. And this is an oversimplification of the way our immune system works. But there, if we're talking about in binary language, that's really what we're looking at. So if it's busy making antibodies, it's not gonna be busy making things, what we call natural killer cells that can fight off bacteria, I'm sorry, viruses and cancer. (36:53): Oh, I'd love for it to be more balanced. And one of the ways we can do that is using this peptide that's naturally occurring in the thymus gland. It's depleted in patients we know that have things like rheumatoid arthritis, MS for example. And so we love having that extra ability to give ourselves depleted thymus and alpha one if we are able to find it. That's a little bit of trouble right now. I like it because it works on that immunosenescence or the aging of the immune system that occurs as we age. The thymus gland, which is where your T-cells come from. Everybody's familiar with this conver you, I couldn't have had this conversation several years ago cuz no one would know what we were talking about, but right. The recent virus we have all this, people are familiar with these terms. You are a thymus gland where your T-cells come from gets replaced with fat as we age. (37:42): And so that's part of the problem with aging is your immune system's unable to fight off things that used to be able to. So if we can give you something like thymus and alpha, we stimulate your baby T-cells to become cells that can fight things off, then we have this better balance. So I think thymus and alpha would definitely fall in my toolbox of anti-aging. The second thing would be to use a growth hormone secretagogue. The reason why I like the instead of growth hormone itself is because they're increasing the ability of your body to produce its own growth hormone. Again, as we age, we know we hit that midlife mayhem and we deplete our bodies not only of testosterone melatonin, estrogen, progesterone, but also growth hormone. And so if we can allow our bodies just to make the amount of growth hormone that it would've made in our twenties and thirties, that it would na you won't overdose on the growth hormone because you're not giving yourself actual growth hormone. (38:40): You're giving yourself an it's, they're usually analogs of growth hormone releasing hormone, which is also naturally produced by the brain. We know that these are associated with improvement in longevity, especially in animal studies. And so this is one of my favorites to help to put people on for improving their longevity. And we can follow that again with a true h test and see how they're chronologically versus biologically improving in their age. So those would probably be my number one. And number two, anti-aging. If we're talking about appearance as aging, one of my favorites is using the copper peptides. And so growth GH HK is the amino acid sequence that it's called. Most of the peptides have a letter and number name on them because they're, they're still in research use. And so G H K has a copper p attached to it, so it's blue when you see it. (39:31): You may see several skincare lines that have a G H K that have a blue coloration to them and these can really help to restore the skin. They have been compared against re A and vitamin C with better than re A and vitamin C outcomes in the research. So very interesting anti-aging for the skin. What's very interesting recently is I've been recommending these topically for people to use for hair loss and we've had several patients lose their hair in this most recent pandemic. And if they use this on their scalp with a derma roller, we do it a couple times a week. Many of these patients will, we're seeing some really amazing results with restoration of hair. And this is not even using p R P, it's just using the, the DRO and the the medical grade J H K C U serum. (40:25): Awesome. Yeah, this is so much good information and I know you could go on probably listing things. I'm thinking, oh, we didn't even talk about oxygen therapies, but I'm gonna tell everyone they just need to read your book , where you're gonna talk about a lot of this. And I thank you so much for joining us. I want everybody listening to really hear that you can improve the quality of your health throughout your life. Juries is not in yet on whether we can actually increase our years, but we can certainly increase the life and the years that we do have. So where can everybody find out more about you? (41:08): My website is Vine as in grapevine medical.com on Instagram at Dr. S Turner, d r s Turner. I'm on Facebook, vine Medical on Facebook. That's the best places. (41:21): And talk a little bit about your book. What are they gonna find there? (41:24): So it's pretty exciting. I'm about halfway through. We're expecting it to be published in November. It is about how to restore your youthful self, recognizing yourself in the mirror again, there I am. And particularly with use the use of peptides. (41:42): Awesome. Well we look forward to that. And thank you for the wisdom and information that you've shared. Thank you for your passion and for your willingness to get out of line. I too started with Dr. Taylor and for everyone listening, Dr. Taylor Eldridge Taylor used to run a program called Get Out of Line for physicians who really recogniz that particularly as women in medical weren't being served properly. And he started by teaching other doctors about natural hormone therapy and then expanded. And then both Dr. Suzanne and I went onto the A four M residency, as she said, or fellowship. So thank you so much for your bravery. A lot of people lay, people don't realize how brave it is for doctors like you to get out of line and say no to the drug and surgery paradigm and walk this path. It's very courageous and I thank you for doing it. I'm so grateful that you just said yes and that you continue on this path. Thank you. (42:46): Thank you Dr. Ki. I appreciate you so much (42:48): And thank you all for listening to another episode of The Hormone Prescription with Dr. Kiran.

As we tackle this reality together, I want to examine three issues that might be barriers to new clients signing up with you. In considering each of them, I hope some insights emerge, enabling you to connect on a more personal level with potential clients. By knowing why moms won't pay for coaching, you can better market your ability to help them… and help them say yes. “These women you're talking to – struggling with motherhood and life and their relationships and all the things – they don't really believe that something different is possible… [or] how much better and more expanded their life could be.” – Molly Claire What You'll Learn Two complementary buckets of skill mastery Issue #1: Dissolving the fraud complex barrier Issue #2: Dismantling coach speak Issue #3: Discovering different is possible Contact Info and Recommended Resources Mom Coach Webinar with Molly (it's FREE!): Monday, March 20, 2023 at 12:00 p.m. (Central Time).

In this episode I share 8 tips to stop overconsuming sugar this season. Food For Thought is really about the thoughts that lead to consuming too many sweets or eating on autopilot.

People socialized as women are particularly susceptible to suffering from the burnout our entire country seems to be dealing with. That's because they're taught from an extremely young age that they have to take care of everyone else before they take care of themselves.   This week I'm joined by two of my Advanced Certification in Feminist Coaching students, Ali Ryan and Marissa McKool, as we look closely at how we define burnout and uncover the roles patriarchy and productivity play in it.   Tune in to learn how you can begin to heal your burnout by figuring out what your unconscious commitments are and by identifying thought patterns about your to-do list at home, and how changing your thoughts around rest (while it may feel terrible at first) can help you prevent future burnout.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/240

It would be nice to think we can leave capitalism at the office when we go home for the day. But the truth is, its reach goes far beyond just the way we make, sell, and buy stuff. It can affect the ways we place value on the actual human beings who do the work, which in turn can lead to burnout, hustle culture, and even ableism.    In this episode I'm joined by two of my Advanced Certification in Feminist Coaching Students, Tina Koch and Rachèle Summers, as we discuss the tricky triad of internalized ableism, productivity culture, and capitalism.   Listen in to learn how you can begin changing productivity-related tendencies by examining the ‘shoulds' in your life, how the first step in changing your internalized ableism is to approach your thoughts around it with compassion, and how you can begin pushing back on hustle culture and build emotional resilience by learning to sit with cognitive dissonance.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/239

There's been a lot of talk about the invisible load the last few years (especially through Covid when women were literally trying to do it all). Pushing back against the invisible load can look like “dropping the ball.” But “dropping the ball” isn't always safe for those socialized as women who also belong to other marginalized identities.   Listen to this interview with two of my Advanced Certification in Feminist Coaching students, Amelia Pleasant Kennedy and Shawna Saumel, to learn how the invisible load is connected to your emotional and physical energy, the importance of negotiation in a relationship, and how living in other marginalized identities can exacerbate a woman's drive to achieve and do more.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/238
