***JOIN THE NEXT MASTER YOUR FASTING CHALLENGE THAT STARTS October 1st, 2025!*** We'll GUIDE you on how to FAST to LOSE FAT for good, and use ‘fast cycling' to achieve uncommon results! ⁠REGISTER HERE!⁠ Click the link for DATES, DETAILS, and FAQs! This episode examines a critical 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis of 12 randomized controlled trials involving 966 type 2 diabetic participants, revealing a sobering truth about intermittent fasting: while it produces remarkable short-term benefits, these gains completely disappear after discontinuation. Dr. Scott and Tommy analyze how various fasting protocols (time-restricted eating, fast-mimicking diets, periodic fasting) significantly reduced A1C levels, fasting blood glucose, and body weight in under three months - but all parameters returned to pre-intervention levels within three months of stopping. This research powerfully illustrates why fasting must be approached as a permanent lifestyle change rather than a temporary diet solution. The hosts address the staggering diabetes epidemic: 38 million diagnosed Americans, 9 million undiagnosed, and 98 million with prediabetes - totaling 145 million Americans on the diabetes spectrum. Learn why the "rebound effect" occurs when fasting habits aren't sustained, and discover practical strategies for long-term adherence through personal anecdotes about adapting fasting to real-life situations like family dinners and social pressures. The episode introduces the concept of "momentary maintenance" - deliberate pauses in fat loss to build confidence in weight control rather than viewing plateaus as failures. This research validates that consistency trumps perfection, emphasizing that intermittent fasting works brilliantly when maintained but requires the same ongoing commitment as any other health practice to preserve its metabolic benefits. ⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers dives deep with Dr. Sara Pugh into how light influences your mitochondria, hormones, and inflammation in ways food alone never could. You'll hear how sunrise sets your body clock, why sunset prepares your system for rest, and how the balance of light and darkness fuels cellular health.   You'll learn how artificial blue light at night can disrupt cortisol, blood sugar, and cravings, and why the wrong kind of light exposure can be just as damaging as poor nutrition. Discover why your mitochondria respond to light as much as to food and how this hidden factor impacts your mood, metabolism, and resilience.   We also explore practical steps—like grounding, sauna use, and cold therapy—that boost your energy and improve sleep. Along the way, you'll find out why sunscreen and sunglasses may do more harm than good, and how structured water and omega-3 fats fit into the bigger picture of cellular repair.

Cold plunge, cryotherapy, and sauna have all gained attention as ways to push the body and mind, but what do they really offer beyond the shock of the cold?   Dr. Andrew Fix takes a closer look at deliberate cold exposure and why so many people turn to it for resilience, recovery, and focus. He unpacks what happens inside the body when you sit in icy water - the release of dopamine, the shift in metabolism, and the boost in energy and attention. He also reflects on the mental side: how choosing to step into discomfort can change the way you handle stress in daily life. How long do you need to stay in? When does timing matter most? What role can practices like sauna play alongside the cold?   This episode shares both the science and the steps so you can experiment with cold therapy in a way that fits your life and see how it might reshape your approach to health and performance.   Quotes “Our mind is extremely powerful. The mindset that you go into something with can have a huge effect on the effect that you get out of that activity or situation.” (11:22 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Cold, whether you like it or not, has a chemical neurophysiological effect on us. And it is stressful. It's a stressor to the body.” (12:10 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “One of the biggest reasons that people use cold exposure is to build resilience and grit.” (12:36 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Getting into an ice bath has the same effect on our body. It has an effect of releasing dopamine, which can improve our mood.” (15:03 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “This is where some of the studies come from, if that water's cold enough, the minimum effective dose to produce some of these effects in a noticeable manner on the body, is you want at least 11 minutes per week of total exposure to that cold.” (30:55 | Dr. Andrew Fix)   Links SideKick Tool   Movemate: Award-Winning Active Standing Board 15% off Promo Code: DRA15   RAD Roller   Revogreen   HYDRAGUN    Athletic Brewing 20% off: ANDREWF20   Connect with Physio Room: Website Instagram Facebook Andrew's Personal Instagram Andrew's Personal Facebook     Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

A recent Google survey found that many developers felt comfortable using the Rust programming language in two months or less. Yet barriers to Rust adoption remain, particularly in safety-critical systems, where features such as memory and processing power are in short supply and compliance with regulations is mandatory. In our latest podcast from the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute (SEI), Vaughn Coates, an engineer in the SEI's Software Solutions Division, sits down with Joe Yankel, initiative Lead of the DevSecOps Innovations team at the SEI, to discuss the barriers and benefits of Rust adoption.  

Welcome to the Power of After Show! When we're young, ideas seem to spill out everywhere — fueled by energy, passion, and late nights. But as we hit mid-career and move into the halftime of life, energy and intuition alone don't cut it anymore. That's when systems become essential. Systems aren't about stifling creativity; they're about channeling it. They turn scattered effort into progress you can sustain, helping you make the most of your experience, skills, and vision. And when you've got a system working for you, it actually gives you more freedom — not less. Today, we're talking about why systems matter so much for entrepreneurs and dream-builders, and how putting the right ones in place can unlock your best next chapter.

Perfectionism in adolescence can be a heavy, even isolating, burden—shaped by social media, identity pressures, and the overwhelming number of choices youth face. Amid these challenges the Doctrine and Covenants offers a powerful reminder: “Remember that the worth of souls is great in the sight of God” (18:10). This eternal truth stands out in contrast to the feeling standards of the world. In this episode Professor Justin Dyer explains how such expectations contribute to rising perfectionism among our youth. Drawing from BYU's Foundations data, he offers advice on how parents, teachers, and leaders can help youth navigate these pressures and find peace in eternal truths. By helping young people anchor their self-worth in truth, we can guide them away from toxic perfectionism and toward a life of purpose, peace, and resilience.   Publications: “Perfectionism Across Adolescence,” BYU Studies Quarterly, 63.4 (2024) “The Family Proclamation: The Secular and Spiritual Context,” co-authored with Michael A.

How should Christians react to political violence? In this deeply reflective episode, Mike Erre and Tim Stafford tackle hard questions about faith, politics, and the role of the church in society. With a week marked by tragedy, including the assassination of Charlie Kirk and a series of shootings, the hosts explore what a kingdom response looks like in these turbulent times.  From condemning all acts of violence equally to affirming the dignity of every human being, they emphasize the need for a cruciformity—a life shaped by the values and teachings of Jesus. They discuss navigating cultural challenges with wisdom, rejecting the polarizing rage economy, and fostering a community rooted in justice, love, and mutual accountability. How can the church rise above partisan responses and embody the upside-down kingdom of God? What does it mean to lament, honor complex legacies, and act with hope amidst despair?  This conversation challenges listeners to rethink their approach to cultural issues, faith, and the call to stand as exiles and strangers in today's society.

Over the past few weeks, I've had several clients and prospective clients ask me the same question: “Should I keep my life insurance in retirement?” Life insurance is something we all tend to think of as essential when we're younger (when we've got a mortgage, kids at home, maybe only one working spouse). But once you're nearing or in retirement, things change. So, the question becomes: Does it still make sense to pay for life insurance? In many cases, the answer depends on your goals and financial picture. I've seen cases where people are paying big premiums for small death benefits that won't make a meaningful impact in their overall financial plan. Life insurance is a tool. If you no longer need the tool, why keep paying for it? That said, there are still some great reasons to have life insurance in retirement. I've worked with clients who maintain policies to fulfill charitable goals. That's their retirement vision. Others use life insurance for legacy planning, making sure a tax-free benefit goes to their children, a trust, or someone they care deeply about. Life insurance can also be part of pension planning, especially for folks using pension maximization strategies to leave something behind for a surviving spouse. Now, if you've got permanent life insurance with a cash value, then you need to understand how it works. I always recommend talking to a fiduciary advisor first. These policies can be complicated, so it's worth reviewing them carefully to make sure they're still serving your needs. One thing I've seen time and again is that people misunderstand their policies. So be cautious because life insurance contracts can have all kinds of fine print. If you don't truly understand how it works, get some help reviewing it. And finally, don't lose sight of your why. Your goals should drive all your financial decisions. So ask yourself, what do you want to protect? Who do you want to help? Whether it's your spouse, your kids, your church, or your community, life insurance can be a powerful tool when used intentionally. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... (00:00) Intro. (03:20) Do you need life insurance in retirement? (07:38) Does it make sense to pay for life insurance? What's the cost to benefit? (09:43) Problems with life insurance. (15:03) Benefits of having a life insurance policy in retirement?  Life Insurance in Retirement is Not for Everyone When people ask me whether they still need life insurance in retirement, I tell them: it depends on your goals, your financial situation, and who you're trying to protect. If you're debt-free, your house is paid off, the kids are grown and financially independent, and your retirement accounts are in good shape, then you might not need it anymore. I had a client recently ask, “Are we wasting money keeping this policy?” And for them, the answer was yes. But for others, the story's different. If you've got a mortgage, a spouse who would struggle financially without you, or anyone who relies on your income, then life insurance might still play a vital role even after you retire. Is Permanent Life Insurance Serving You? Another big topic I often see is confusion around permanent life insurance policies, whole life, universal life, variable universal life, you name it. These policies often have cash value, and many people don't fully understand how they work or what they're really worth. I've reviewed policies where the death benefit is only $10,000–$25,000, and the person is still paying high premiums. In many cases, if you're over 59½ and you want to cash out, you can access the cash value with minimal tax impact, depending on your cost basis. For example, if you've paid $30,000 into the policy and the cash value is $45,000, that $15,000 gain would be taxable as ordinary income. I always recommend speaking with a CPA or fiduciary before making a move, but the key is understanding the numbers and whether that policy is still serving you. How Your Financial Goals Direct Life Insurance Needs Lastly, don't forget your goals, your why. Life insurance isn't just about replacing income; it can be a powerful tool to help you leave a legacy. I've worked with a couple who each carry a $1 million policy with their church as the beneficiary because that was part of their retirement vision. Another client is using her policy to fund a college scholarship because a scholarship changed the course of her own life. These stories are reminders that your financial decisions should reflect your values and what matters most to you. Life insurance can still have purpose in retirement, but only if it's tied to something meaningful. As I always say: dream big, and make your money work for the life you want to live and the legacy you want to leave behind.

In this episode Andrea revisits her 2019 conversation with Dr. Daniel J. Siegel to explore Mindsight — his science-based approach to understanding the mind, integrating the brain, and cultivating empathy. Dr. Siegel explains the difference between mind and brain, the benefits of the Wheel of Awareness meditation, and how Mindsight can change brain structure and improve health. Watch full interview here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7pnea2Vbzc Practical tips include daily Mindsight practice, naming emotions to build self-awareness, and simple emotional check-ins to make learning and relationships more meaningful. This week, in our review of EP 28 with Daniel J. Siegel, MD  and his book Mindsight, we learned: ✔ The Difference Between the Mind and the Brain. ✔  The Benefits of The Wheel of Awareness Meditation. ✔ How to Understand and Apply Mindsight that gives us insight into ourselves, and empathy for others. ✔ How Mindsight can change brain structure and improve health. ✔ In order to make teaching and learning more meaningful, what we are teaching must have an element of emotion. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training 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, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. Episode 371: For today's Episode 371, we continue our journey into the mind with the next interview review. Just a reminder-this review series began back with Episode 366[i], where in Part 3 we discovered an important lesson: if we don't like our results—or what we see on the outside—we need to shift our mindset and look within. True change always begins on the inside.   EP 369[ii] we learned how to Rewire our Brain with Dr. Dawson Church and his Bliss Brain Meditations, and then last week, EP 370[iii] with John Medina's Brain Rules, we reviewed how important this understanding of neuroscience is, especially connected to education, teaching and learning. Which brings us to today's review, EP 371, where we revisit a very early episode with clinical professor of psychiatry from UCLA's School of Medicine, Dr. Daniel J Siegel. He's from EP 28[iv], that was recorded back in November of 2019. As we take this journey deeper into the mind, Dr. Dan Siegel offers the perfect place to begin, with his ability to bridge cutting-edge neuroscience and practical wisdom. Dr. Dan Siegel, is well known for his books, trainings and courses that bridge cutting edge neuroscience with mindfulness and therapy. A reminder of his background-he's a clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine and executive director of the Mindsight Institute[v] where you can find his courses, workshops, books and tools to help anyone understand and apply what can sometimes be complicated scientific concepts and make them easy to understand and applicable to our daily lives. At the end of the interview, I let Dr. Siegel know that I had been practicing his Wheel of Awareness Meditation, and ended up reviewing what I learned on EP 60[vi] where we explored the Science Behind a Meditation Practice. You can watch the whole interview by clicking on the link in the resource section in the show notes, and learn all about Dr. Siegel's work that encompasses schools, with resiliency, brain science and helping our next generation to understand how to apply these important strategies whether it's in our classrooms, or workplaces of the future. Today we will continue to explore within, sharpen our mindset, and learn about what Dr. Siegel calls Mindsight. VIDEO 1 Click Here to Watch In Clip 1, Dr. Siegel unpacks the concept of Mindsight and helps clarify the difference between the mind and the brain, when I asked him to explain this distinction. I knew this wasn't an easy question—as I had already listened to him answer it many times over the years, and still wasn't sure I fully grasped it. In fact, I even tried to tackle it myself back in Episode 23[vii], Understanding Your Brain and Mind for Increased Results. But revisiting this topic now, I can see this concept requires a much deeper reflection. So, I asked Dr. Siegel if we could look at his definition of the mind—one he has been studying for years and that many in his scientific and educational circles agree on. He describes the mind as “an embodied and relational process—since it's in the body and it's in our relationships with one another—that regulates the flow of energy and information.” I wanted to hear him expand on this again, especially around why relationships are so critical for our health, our well-being, and for creating what he calls an integrated brain—which he equates with a healthy brain. His answer helped me to understand the importance of implementing Mindsight into our daily life. He said: “The word mind doesn't actually have a formal definition—not in education, psychotherapy, or even in fields like psychology that study it directly. But if we look closely, the mind includes your subjective experience—that inner feeling of being alive. It also includes consciousness—the ability to know that you're having that subjective experience. And beyond that, there's information processing—which doesn't always require consciousness and is essentially what school focuses on: learning to process information. When you understand the mind as a self-organizing process—a complex system that regulates its own becoming—you begin to see the power of teaching about the mind itself. This is what we call Mindsight. And if we could bring this understanding into education, the outcomes for students would be profoundly different.” Key Tip 1 with Dr. Dan Siegel Understanding and Applying Mindsight which is “the way we focus our attention on the internal world. It's how we bring consciousness to our own thoughts and feelings, and then next,  how we attune to the inner world of someone else. Mindsight gives us insight into ourselves, and empathy for others.”

According to a 2016 WHO study, 25% of the global population is likely to develop a mental disorder during their lifetime. But of course there are certain habits that we can adopt to diminish that risk, or treat the situation. These include getting counselling, regular physical activity and a proper sleep routine. Another beneficial habit is journaling, or "therapeutic writing”, as it's also known. A Cambridge University study published in 2018 found that expressive writing about traumatic events increased physical and psychological well-being. What are the benefits? How can I get started? Which famous people are known to journal? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Episode 246How 2 Learn From The Years Sensers! So turning 40 is a landmark moment if you value that, but as a topic I wanted to shed light on some of the things I've learned throughout that time and perhaps it benefits you. I find that the years seem to have gone by pretty fast for me getting to this point. I'm grateful for everyone's role past and present who's been along for some of the moments. Being a content creator, sometimes your perspective may trigger someone, it may be misinterpreted, or try to hack the narrative that you share. What I find to be important and mindful is that you're responsible for what you say now how someone interpreted it. It has nothing to do with you especially when you're focus on the path of healing. Many will project their own thoughts and feelings onto you, but stand firm in your mindset to share your perspective. I want to share how I manage those moments when being misunderstood by another human.If you were born human, more than likely you've experienced some form of trauma in life. It may not have been referred to as trauma at the time, but as we get more educated on the concept of mental health and trauma's effects on the brain I believe we can recognize it, embrace the emotions which come about from it and work towards learning to heal from it the best that we can. I look back at what I perceive that I went through and looking at it in a positive light just as much as the negative emotion as to how it made me more aware of my surroundings. May God and His Universe remove any negative energy you may have stored from reading this.

Hey beautiful human! You've probably asked yourself at some point: Should I be doing Pilates… or should I lift weights? And if you've ever felt stuck trying to choose between the two, this episode is for you. Let me be clear, Pilates can absolutely support your goals. It's amazing for posture, mobility, and core strength. But if you're trying to build muscle, boost your metabolism, or reshape your body? Resistance training is what truly moves the needle. In this episode, I'm breaking down the real differences between Pilates and lifting, so you can stop second-guessing your workouts and start seeing results. We're getting into: What Pilates does (and doesn't do) for your metabolism and strength Why resistance training creates longer-lasting changes in your body The truth about “bulking,” “toning,” and the biggest myths about lifting How to combine Pilates and strength training for a balanced routine Where to start if lifting feels confusing, overwhelming, or out of reach If you've been trying to make progress with Pilates alone and feel like something's missing, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and a roadmap for what to do next.
