Ebola has a way of cutting through the noise of the news cycle. Its name alone can shift conversations in exam rooms and on living room couches. But what's circulating in headlines is not always what's circulating in reality. For pediatricians, that gap matters. In this episode, we break down what's actually happening right now with Ebola, what is known about current risk and how clinicians can respond when families arrive with urgent questions shaped more by media than by medicine. To guide us through the science, we are joined by Sam Dominguez, MD, PhD. He is the Medical Director of the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory, as well as the Associate Medical Director of Infection Control and Prevention at Children's Hospital Colorado. He is a professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Some highlights from this episode include: The current status of Ebola in Africa How difficult it is to contract Ebola The role of the pediatrician in screening patients who are traveling from other countries How pediatricians can ease minds while also promoting the facts For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.

When a rare disease suddenly dominates headlines, questions spread quickly and so does anxiety. Over the past few weeks, hantavirus has re-entered the national conversation, leaving many families wondering how concerned they should be. For pediatricians, moments like this can be challenging as they balance public concern with clinical reality, and help families navigate information that is often incomplete, alarming or misleading. In this episode, we take a closer look at hantavirus through an evidence-based pediatric lens including what it is, how transmission occurs, who is truly at risk and what clinicians should know when these questions inevitably enter the exam room. To create clarity, we are joined by Samuel Dominguez, MD, PhD and Justin Searns, MD. Dr. Dominguez is the Medical Director of the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory, as well as the Associate Medical Director of Infection Control and Prevention at Children's Hospital Colorado. Dr. Searns specializes in pediatric infectious diseases and hospital medicine. Both of these experts teach at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.

About This Episode: What happens when a sports medicine physician rediscovers her inner theatre kid during a global pandemic? In this episode, Phil sits down with Dr. Janet McMordie, a physician, actor, podcast host, and Team Canada Paralympics doctor, for a genuinely surprising conversation about what it means to pursue two very different callings at once. Janet shares how Second City's free online improv classes for healthcare workers during COVID cracked open a creative life she'd tucked away during years of medical training. From community theatre up north to landing an agent at a showcase, her path back to the stage has been anything but conventional — and she's leaning into every messy, joyful step of it. Now Janet is producing and starring in a remount of Rosamund Small's acclaimed play Vitals at Factory Theatre (May 2 - 10), directed by Alaine Hutton. She opens up about what it's like to hire yourself when the industry won't, the humbling surprise of discovering that the script is only 10–20% of the show, and why she believes theatre - real humans breathing the same air - is exactly what the world needs right now. This episode explores: How pandemic improv classes reignited Janet's lifelong love of performance What it's like to navigate the identity of being both Dr. McMordie and an actor Producing Vitals at Factory Theatre — finding funding through small businesses when grants fall short Being a Team Canada physician at the 2024 Paris Paralympics The politics of sport, the politics of theatre, and why artists can't just 'stay in their lane' And much more!

Dr. Eboni Cornish is the Associate Medical Director at Amen Clinics and president-elect of the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society (ILADS), with 16+ years specializing in neuroinflammation, Lyme disease, mold illness, PANS/PANDAS, and long COVID. In this episode, she joins Karena to break down the overlooked root causes driving brain fog, anxiety, poor sleep, and chronic illness — making the case that most people suffering from mood and cognitive symptoms have an underlying physical cause that's going completely undetected. What if the anxiety, brain fog, and exhaustion you've been managing as mental health symptoms are actually your body flagging something physical — something that's never been investigated? When mental health is treated as brain health, the entire conversation changes. Dr. Eboni Cornish shows us what's possible when we stop medicating symptoms and start asking why. (02:15) Brain Health Is the Missing Piece of Longevity You can sauna, plunge, and lift — but if you're not sleeping, your brain can't heal Non-restorative sleep is the number one red flag your brain is under stress Hormones, cortisol, and fight-or-flight mode all disrupt sleep Supplements Dr. Cornish recommends: L-theanine, GABA, and magnesium (18:31) Mold, Environmental Toxins & Your Mood Mold toxins cause inflammation that mimics depression, anxiety, and even dementia Some patients' mood symptoms resolved entirely after leaving a water-damaged building HLA gene testing can reveal whether your body can clear mold toxins or retains them Brain fog is a symptom, not a diagnosis (33:49) Lyme Disease, Tick Bites & PANS/PANDAS in Kids and Adults Less than 50% of people with Lyme ever notice a tick bite or bullseye rash Lyme is a global disease, a "great imitator" that can present as depression, fatigue, or psychosis In kids, sudden personality changes after illness can signal PANS/PANDAS, an autoimmune neuropsychiatric response Thanks for the support from our partners, including: Guest Resources Visit Dr. Eboni Cornish's website (https://www.drebonicornish.com/) Follow her on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/dr.ebonicornish/) Learn about Amen Clinics (https://www.amenclinics.com) Find an ILADS-trained physician (https://www.ilads.org) If this episode moved you, please consider supporting The Big Silence Foundation and exploring our resources: Connect with The Big Silence Community Order: The Big Silence Memoir audiobook (https://thebigsilence.com/pages/audiobook) Shop The Big Silence Self Love Collection (https://thebigsilence.com/collections/shop-all) Subscribe on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaL3RrbvDLuTTGFN4VYzEpw) Donate to The Big Silence Foundation (https://thebigsilence.com/donate) The Big Silence Resource Guide (https://thebigsilence.com/pages/resources) Find exclusive offers from our supporters (https://thebigsilence.com/pages/our-podcast-partners) Show Resources: VISIT THE CHALLENGE PAGE (https://my.toneitup.com/pages/new-year-new-tiyou-challenge) THE BIG SILENCE PODCAST (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-big-silence/id1607181597) TONE IT DOWN PODCAST (https://my.toneitup.com/pages/tone-it-down-podcast) Tone It Up App (https://my.toneitup.com/pages/tone-it-up-app) Tone It Up YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@toneitup/featured) Tone It Up Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/toneitup/?hl=en) Have a message for Karena?

When living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and hypermobility disorders, medications alone rarely resolve all the symptoms. In this episode of Bendy Bodies, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Dr. Ina Stephens, integrative medicine specialist and Associate Medical Director of the UVA Health EDS and Hypermobility Disorders Center, for a wide-ranging conversation about how lifestyle medicine, nervous system regulation, and whole-body care can dramatically influence outcomes for people with connective tissue disorders.Dr. Stephens explains how her background in infectious disease, vaccinology, and complex care led her to recognize patterns across seemingly unrelated symptoms and why listening deeply to patients often reveals the underlying problem. The discussion explores how nutrition, gut health, vagal nerve tone, sleep quality, and gradual strength building all influence inflammation, fatigue, and autonomic dysfunction in EDS.The episode also dives into the science of the microbiome, why small lifestyle shifts can produce meaningful physiologic change, and how integrative medicine expands the treatment toolbox beyond traditional Western approaches. For patients navigating complex symptoms, and clinicians caring for them, this conversation offers a thoughtful reminder that healing often happens through steady, strategic steps rather than quick fixes. Takeaways: There is rarely a single “magic” treatment for EDS, POTS, or MCAS. Progress usually comes from strategic sequencing. Overtreating symptoms without addressing underlying patterns can create long-term setbacks. Physical therapy must be individualized in hypermobility, with an emphasis on pacing and trust. Shared decision-making improves outcomes, especially when treatment goals align with what brings the patient meaning and quality of life. Minimally disruptive medicine matters, reducing cognitive, financial, and physical treatment burden is part of effective care. Want to learn more about the UVA EDS Center?

Dr. Eboni Cornish, Associate Medical Director at Amen Clinics and President-Elect of ILADS, breaks down why Lyme disease is just the beginning of the story. As someone who specializes in neuroinflammation caused by chronic infections, she explains how tick-borne diseases, parasites, and mold toxicity don't work alone. They create an inflammatory cascade that crosses the blood-brain barrier, triggers autoimmune responses, and makes recovery from conditions like breast implant illness exponentially harder. From her work analyzing brain scans showing infection-driven inflammation to her clinical insights on why gut stability determines immune stability, Dr. Cornish provides a masterclass in understanding complex chronic illness. You'll learn why standard testing misses most infections, how genetics determine your susceptibility to toxin accumulation, and why the real question isn't IF you have parasites but how much they're contributing to your inflammatory burden. Dr. Eboni Cornish on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.ebonicornish/ Amen Clinics: https://www.amenclinics.com/ Amen Clinics on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amen_clinics/?hl=en ILADS: https://www.ilads.org/ IN THIS EPISODE WE'LL: Discover why Lyme disease is actually three infections (Borrelia, Bartonella, and Babesiosis) that create different symptoms and require clinical diagnosis beyond lab testing. Uncover the connection between HLA genetics and your ability to clear mold toxins, tick-borne diseases, and why some family members get devastatingly sick while others stay healthy in the same environment. Break through the parasite denial that keeps you sick, including why testing is unreliable and how parasites create biofilms with other pathogens to overwhelm your immune system. Transform your understanding of the gut-brain axis and why stabilizing your microbiome isn't optional if you're dealing with neuropsychiatric symptoms, chronic inflammation, or breast implant illness. Learn practical nutrition strategies that meet patients where they are, from working with picky eaters to creating sustainable anti-inflammatory habits without the stress of restriction-based diets.

Ever walk out of a shift and feel like the hospital came home with you? In medicine, the mental residue can cling long after the work day is done. One way to address this is boundary rituals, deliberate actions designed to process the day and allow you to leave work at work, be more present when you get home, and possibly even sleep better. As a bonus, the ability to disengage from work is one of the strongest predictors of reduced burnout.In this episode, Mohamed Hagahmed, MD, shares how he creates this boundary—through small rituals of gratitude, stillness, and reflection. From growing up as a refugee to serving as a sideline physician for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Dr. Hagahmed's path has been shaped by resilience, culture, and care. He explains how he learned to stop carrying unfixable wounds home, why kindness is clinical armor, and how tiny acts of self-compassion can protect meaning in medicine.Guest Bio: Mohamed Hagahmed, MD a Clinical Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh, Associate Medical Director at the Center for Emergency Medicine, and EMS Medical Director for several systems in Western Pennsylvania.

In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Dr. Jordan Grumet, hospice physician, writer, and podcast host, as he shares his journey. At age 7, Dr. Grumet lost his father, an oncologist, to a brain aneurysm, and he became determined to become a doctor himself. However, despite achieving his goal, Dr. Grumet experienced burnout when he realized that becoming a doctor couldn't "cosmically make up" for his father's death.Drawing from his experiences as a hospice physician, he offers profound insights on distinguishing between meaning and purpose, overcoming burnout, and creating a life that genuinely "lights you up."Key Points* Meaning vs. Purpose:* Meaning: How we cognitively understand our past; the stories we tell ourselves* Purpose: Actions in the present and future that "light us up"* Finding Your Purpose: Look for "purpose anchors" - activities and experiences that energize and fulfill you* The Art of Subtraction: Remove elements from your life that don't bring joy to discover what remains that does* Generational Growth: Breaking cycles of expectation to model authenticity for the next generation* Achieving Impact: Dr. Grumet found that pursuing what truly energized him (writing and podcasting) ultimately allowed him to help more people than his medical practiceNotable Quotes"Purpose is about the present and future, and it's about actions. All it is is about things that light you up. If you're trying to get more out of purpose than that, then you really don't have a purpose problem. You have a meaning problem.""Happy people tend to tell themselves heroic stories about their past. They see their traumas, they see their difficulties, and they see that they heroically got through them.""You can't purpose your way to enough. That's a meaning problem. That's a going back and dealing with your childhood problem.""All you have control over, the one measly thing we can control is what activities are we involved with as time passes.""I've really spent a lot of time thinking about what winning the game when it comes to life looks like... winning the game is as you get older, from the day you're born to the day you die, basically you want to be looking at your calendar... and you want to add in as many purposeful, joyful things that light you up into those time slots of your life.""When people see you doing things authentic to you, you are giving them permission."About Dr. Jordan GrumetDr. Jordan Grumet is a physician, writer, and host of the popular Earn and Invest podcast.

Over the last few decades, there have been many incredible medical advances in newborn care. At Children's Hospital Colorado, we're launching an exciting new initiative to take another step forward in care for our tiniest patients. For newborns who need to be hospitalized, getting home as soon as possible is critical for their successful development. A common barrier for discharge that can keep babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for additional days or weeks is the need for a nasogastric (NG) tube. Ensuring an infant is receiving proper nutrition is essential to securing a safe discharge. What if we could deliver NG tube feeds at home and provide all the necessary support? That's the game changing idea we explore in this episode with our neonatology experts. To dive into this topic, we are joined by three neonatologists practicing at Children's Colorado. Stephanie Bourque, MD, Kathleen Hannan, MD, and Danielle Smith, MD, tell us about a new at-home NG tube feed program that the team at Children's Colorado is currently developing. Dr. Smith is the Medical Director of the NICU, Dr. Bourque is the Associate Medical Director of the NICU, and all three of our guests are faculty at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Some highlights from this episode include: What the need has been historically for NG tubes Model for this at-home program What's required to make this at-home model a reality The role of the primary care provider in this partnership The impact a change like this could have on patient outcomes and family satisfaction For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.
For some, COVID-19 may seem like a thing of the past, but for medical professionals, the data regarding post-acute sequalae of COVID infection is only just emerging. Four years ago, the start of the pandemic left doctors puzzled by certain symptoms. Today, we are learning more about the long-term impacts of SARS-CoV-2 in children, often called long COVID or PASC. As the population continues to struggle with persistent and debilitating after-effects and symptoms, we are looking for answers. To provide insight into this important diagnosis, we are joined by Suchitra Rao, MD. She is an infectious disease specialist at Children's Hospital Colorado, as well as the Associate Medical Director of Infection Prevention and Control. She is also an associate professor of Pediatrics within the sections of Infectious Diseases, Epidemiology, and Hospital Medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Some highlights from this episode include: The epidemiology of long COVID in kids The difference between the data in adults and children A discussion of how to diagnose asymptomatic patients A closer look at Dr. Rao's groundbreaking research For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.
