In this solo episode of Modern Chiropractic Mastery, Dr. Kevin Christie delves into the often-overlooked positives of being a chiropractor. He acknowledges the challenges in the profession but emphasizes that every industry has its issues. Drawing from responses in the Forward Thinking Chiropractic Alliance Facebook group, Dr. Christie highlights various benefits, including integrated settings, flexible schedules, the opportunity for entrepreneurship, and the unique privilege of healing patients. He also mentions the physicality of the job, social interactions, the potential for financial success, and reduced administrative burdens. Dr. Christie encourages listeners to focus on these positives and maintain a 'deep life' by balancing community, craft, constitution, and contemplation.

In this episode, we dive into a game-changing Ivy Exec article exposing the gap between flashy workplace perks and what employees truly value for retention and satisfaction—think flexibility, mental health support, and financial security over office ping-pong tables. Core Shift in Benefits: Leaders waste budgets on trendy amenities while employees crave practical supports that ease daily stress, like usable PTO and hybrid work options. Top Used Benefits: Comprehensive health coverage, retirement matching, and simple-access mental health resources top the list, with high adoption when they're straightforward and stigma-free. Flexibility Wins: Predictable time off and work autonomy beat "unlimited PTO" policies that no one dares to use, directly impacting job choices. Key Takeaways Audit usage data to cut underutilized perks and fund high-impact areas like therapy stipends, debt assistance, and career coaching. Normalize mental health days and financial wellness programs to build loyalty amid burnout trends. Co-design benefits with employee input for relevance, plus clear communication to boost satisfaction.   Subscribe to The Breakfast Leadership Show for more on burnout-proof cultures.

Everything you put into the world is doing something. Your website. Your social posts. Your emails. Your videos. Your interviews. In this episode, Shannon Jamail breaks down a truth most retreat leaders avoid: if you're not repelling anyone, you're probably being too generic. Attraction is only half the conversation. Sustainable retreat businesses are built on clarity - and clarity naturally attracts the right people while filtering out the wrong ones. Shannon explains why repelling misaligned guests isn't a flaw, it's a leadership skill, and how trying to please everyone leads to burnout, boundary issues, and low-quality experiences. She also addresses a critical nuance retreat leaders need to understand: the difference between being purposeful and being polarizing - and why "anti" messaging often does more harm than good in a business rooted in trust, safety, and connection. This episode is a must-listen for retreat leaders who want aligned guests, healthier group dynamics, and a business that actually feels good to run. Key Takeaways Everything you create either attracts or repels - and both are necessary. If you're trying to be liked by everyone, your message is likely watered down. Repelling misaligned people protects your energy, your team, and your guests. Clear messaging prevents boundary issues, complaints, and emotional drain. Strong leadership is about standing firmly in who you are - not pleasing everyone. There's a difference between purposeful messaging and polarizing, anti-focused content. Being pro what you stand for builds trust far more effectively than being anti anything. Clarity in your brand leads to alignment, ease, and long-term sustainability.     The Retreat Leaders Podcast Resources and Links: Learn to Host Retreats Join our private Facebook Group Top 5 Marketing Tools Free Guide Get your legal docs for retreats Join Shannon in Denver at the Retreat Industry Forum  Join our LinkedIn Group Apply to be a guest on our show   Thanks for tuning into the Retreat Leaders Podcast.

In this episode, Brian Miller and Brian Tracy continue January's theme of resisting the tyranny of the urgent by exploring why "moving fast" isn't the same as "moving forward." They talk about Sabbath as a spiritual act of trust, Cal Newport's Slow Productivity, and how focus, rest, and even fun are not distractions—they're fuel. The conversation keeps circling one core idea: if you want to do better work, you may need to do less of it. Key Highlights Brian and Brian open with playful banter, then pivot quickly into a serious tension: January goal-setting in a world where the future feels harder to predict. They name a common trap: false urgency—working really hard without clarity about what you're actually trying to achieve. Sabbath gets reframed as a non-optional command (yes, it's in the same list as "don't murder," which is… awkwardly clarifying). They unpack principles from Cal Newport's Slow Productivity: do fewer things, work at a natural pace, and obsess over quality. A practical leadership moment: both share examples of delegating what you're not gifted for (pastoral care / follow-up calls) so others can shine—and people actually like the care they receive. Takeaways Speed is not a strategy. Clarity about where you're going beats frantic motion every time. Rest is a leadership discipline, not a reward. If you won't stop, you're basically telling God, "I got this," which is adorable… and wrong. Do less, better. Limit projects, double time estimates, and protect "recovery time" so your best work isn't squeezed out by your busiest work. Stay in your sweet spot. Stop trying to become "average" at what you're not built for—delegate it to someone who's a rock star. Quality makes you stand out. Whether it's a sermon, a weekly email, or coaching sessions—slower, more thoughtful work is often what creates real value.

Improving Healthcare Access and Quality Dr. Julie Wilson, a family physician in British Columbia, joined Michael to discuss her work in transforming healthcare workplaces. Her organization now manages 20 clinics and supports more than 100 healthcare providers across the province. Julie shared her motivation to expand access and improve the quality of care, especially as BC faces the dual challenge of an aging population and rapidly growing immigrant communities. She emphasized the essential role of primary care in offering trusted guidance and stability for patients. Michael noted that stronger healthcare systems support healthier communities, which ultimately strengthens economic productivity and quality of life. The Healthcare Worker Shortage Crisis Michael and Julie explored the global shortage of healthcare workers, particularly physicians, which is placing immense strain on clinics and care systems. They discussed how rising patient volumes without matching compensation or support lead to burnout, turnover, and reduced quality of care. Julie highlighted the importance of creating supportive environments where healthcare professionals can practice in ways that align with their strengths and patient needs, rather than being restricted by rigid schedules or outdated expectations. AI Integration in Clinical Workflow Michael spoke about the importance of meaningful clinician–patient relationships, especially for individuals living with chronic conditions or complex medical histories. He reflected on the growing administrative burden clinicians face due to charting demands and documentation requirements, which often distract from patient care and contribute to burnout. Michael expressed optimism that AI integration into electronic health records could reduce these tasks and give clinicians more time with patients. Benefits of AI in Healthcare Documentation Julie and Michael discussed how AI can transform healthcare documentation. They noted that AI tools can improve the completeness and accuracy of patient records, reduce the hours clinicians spend on charting, and support better follow up and communication. Michael highlighted the potential for AI to uncover meaningful patterns in patient data that can ultimately improve outcomes. Both agreed that reducing administrative friction will allow healthcare professionals to focus more fully on the practice of medicine. Autonomy and Support in Clinical Settings Julie shared her philosophy for running medical clinics, grounded in autonomy, trust, and respect. She emphasized the value of listening to staff, providing emotional and operational support, and fostering a positive work culture. Michael added a personal example of creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere in one of his clinics, which aligned with Julie's approach. Together, they underscored that when employees feel heard and supported, they deliver better care and maintain higher levels of engagement.

The general consensus on sauna bathing is that it's a powerful tool for longevity, recovery and metabolic health. More sessions, higher heat, longer durations — all of these strategies are commonly assumed to produce better outcomes. But after hearing Paul Saladino question whether sauna use can add unnecessary stress for people who already train hard or live under chronic pressure, I felt it was worth taking a closer look at when sauna therapy is best leveraged and when it might do more harm than good. Here's the core issue: sauna use is a physiological stressor. It raises core temperature, increases cortisol, can lower HRV in the short term, and often causes temporary spikes in blood glucose.  And if your overall stress load is already high, adding another stressor on top of that won't necessarily improve recovery. In other words, the thing you should be concerned about is total stress load. When hard training, poor sleep, work pressure, and everyday life are already consuming most of your recovery capacity, spending long periods in very hot saunas can stop being adaptive and start competing with recovery. At the same time, when you zoom out, the long-term evidence supporting sauna bathing remains strong — even for people who train regularly.  These benefits – including improvements in cardiovascular function, insulin sensitivity, heat tolerance and sleep quality – play out over years and decades, not session by session. And I suspect the number of people who train so hard that their system is pushed to its limit is relatively low.  So in my view, discouraging sauna use is the wrong overall approach; for most people in most scenarios, the benefits far outweigh the risks. Still, it can be beneficial to pay attention to dosage and timing. Long, very hot sauna sessions layered onto hard training and inadequate recovery can overwhelm your ability to recover, rather than support it. Used more deliberately — i.e., shorter sessions, reasonable temperatures, and better placement within the week — time in the sauna often has the opposite effect, helping people unwind, sleep better, and recover more fully – even when their fitness trackers show short-term fluctuations.

My guest today is Reed Hastings, the co-founder and former longtime CEO of Netflix. Netflix is an example of two ideas that everyone talks about, but are extremely hard to do in practice. The first is finding a simple idea and taking it extraordinarily seriously. Reed talks about how even the DVD business was nothing more than a stepping stone toward streaming, which they envisioned from the company's inception in 1997. The second is talent density, and what it actually takes to set and sustain an exceptionally high bar over decades as a company grows.  We talk about how those ideas shaped Netflix's culture and strategy, what Reed learned from mistakes like Qwikster, and why Netflix treated content like a venture portfolio. We also discuss Reed's work today. He shares how he's thinking about AI, what he's learned from serving on the boards of Microsoft, Meta, Anthropic, and Bloomberg, and what excites him about Powder Mountain, the ski resort he acquired after Netflix.

The ALL ME® Podcast Turmeric: The Super Herb – Dr. Gene Bruno In this enlightening episode of the All Me Podcast, host Don Hooten speaks with Dr. Gene Bruno, known as the Vitamin Professor, about the significance of nutrition and herbal medicine, particularly focusing on turmeric. Dr. Bruno shares his personal journey into the world of nutrition, the benefits of turmeric, its role in inflammation and cancer, and the importance of bioavailability in supplements. The conversation also touches on safety, potential side effects, and how to find quality turmeric products. The episode concludes with a light-hearted curveball round of questions, showcasing Dr. Bruno's personality and insights. Takeaways Dr. Bruno's journey into nutrition began with his grandmother's cancer story. Turmeric is a traditional herbal medicine with numerous health benefits. The bioavailability of curcumin in turmeric is very low without proper delivery systems. Turmeric can be taken daily for preventive health benefits. Combining turmeric with other herbs can enhance its effectiveness. Turmeric has anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties. It's important to consult experts rather than rely on social media for supplement advice. Turmeric may help in cancer treatment as part of an integrative approach. Safety concerns exist for pregnant women regarding turmeric use. Quality turmeric supplements can be found through knowledgeable sources.

WELCOME TO SEASON 6 OF THE MAYO CLINIC TALKS PODCAST! Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Warren G. Thompson, M.D. Alcohol can offer a variety of social and potential health benefits when consumed in moderation. However, alcohol is also associated with a variety of health risks, including addiction, increased likelihood of accidents, impaired judgment, cardiovascular problems, hepatic disease and even malignancy. Other than the social benefits, are there true health benefits of alcohol? Is there an amount of alcohol that's considered safe? How can we as primary care clinicians convey the health risks of alcohol to our patients? The topic for this podcast is the “Risks and Benefits of Alcohol” and these are some of the questions I'll be asking my guest, Warren G. Thompson, M.D., an internist and preventive medicine specialist at the Mayo Clinic. Connect with us and learn more here: https://ce.mayo.edu/online-education/content/mayo-clinic-podcasts

Finally, she covers practical exercise programming for busy women, training and nutrition considerations during pregnancy and postpartum, and the evolving role of hormone therapy alongside lifestyle-based, evidence-driven approaches that help women better advocate for their health. We discuss: Abbie's background in distance running and her interest in studying women's health around exercise [3:00]; The role of early-life exercise in building lifelong bone, muscle, and cardiovascular health in girls [4:00]; Training principles for premenstrual girls, the risks of early specialization and delayed puberty from intense training, and how youth sport participation can shape bone and spinal health [7:15]; Nutrition as fuel in young female athletes: supporting training, growth, and performance [11:00]; Training and recovery across the menstrual cycle: recovery, nutrition, supplements, and practical strategies for performance support [16:00]; The benefits of creatine supplementation and importance of protein intake across the menstrual cycle [27:15]; How women should approach training intensity and volume across the menstrual cycle [33:00]; How to identify and monitor the perimenopausal transition and why this phase represents a critical window for exercise and nutrition interventions [37:15]; Case study: time-efficient exercise program for a busy, perimenopausal woman [42:00]; Why improving body composition is a better goal than weight loss, and how to set realistic fat-loss targets in midlife women [53:30]; How to preserve muscle and bone while using GLP-1 medications: resistance training, protein intake, and more [58:15]; Designing a three-hour-per-week training plan for sustainable body recomposition [1:03:30]; Abbie's insights from her 20+ years of self-tracking: nutrient timing, injury prevention, excessive training, bone health, and more [1:07:15]; How pregnancy and the postpartum period affect body composition, and how consistent exercise and intentional nutrition can prevent a permanent shift in body fat or muscle mass [1:13:30]; Changes in muscle quality and metabolic flexibility during perimenopause and menopause, and how exercise may counteract hormonally driven sarcopenia [1:21:45]; The biggest open questions about women's health: combining menopause hormone therapy with exercise, GLP-1 drugs, minimizing injury risk, and more [1:32:00]; How the training response differs between men and women, and the importance of type IIa muscle fibers [1:39:15]; Training advice for the hypothetical 70-year-old woman who has never exercised deliberately [1:47:00]; Misinformation about exercise and nutrition for women, injury risk, supplement hype, and the need for more nuanced messaging around hormones, recovery, and midlife training [1:53:30]; Benefits of hormone therapy in midlife women and its interaction with exercise and lifestyle interventions [2:00:15]; Peter's overall take on how women should approach exercise volume and intensity at various life phases and time constraints [2:03:00]; and More.

Psilocybin is neurologically proven to unwire years of bad habits, enhancing focus, emotional control, and mental clarity. Society has intentionally hidden the truth about how this powerful compound can optimize your mind and body, but that changes now. In episode 847 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with Adam Schell, a former cannabis industry insider who now dedicates his life to psilocybin. Adam shares his incredible story, from a life altering psychedelic experience to losing millions and rebuilding. He explains the real science behind how microdosing psilocybin improves brain function, helps manage trauma, and promotes spiritual growth. They discuss the difference between a microdose and a hero dose, who is a good candidate for each, and why these substances are far safer and more beneficial than alcohol. This conversation reveals how you can use this tool to improve your health and become a more effective human being.If you are ready to apply this same level of optimization to your physique, join Robert's FREE Bodybuilding Masterclass to learn the proven system for building muscle and achieving your fitness goals. https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registration-2Code "SAVAGE" to save 15% off Adam's Site BrainSupremeGet Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQChapters:0:00 - Microdosing vs. Hero Dose: What's The Difference? 1:10 - The Philosophy of Building an Authentic Business 3:35 - How My First Psychedelic Trip Changed My Life Forever 6:00 - An Unforgettable Encounter With a Traumatized Veteran 8:29 - Why I Left The Cannabis Industry For Psychedelics 10:34 - The "Glorious Mutation" That Created Our Unique Strain 11:10 - A Beginner's Guide to Psilocybin Doses 13:20 - The Realistic Expectations for Microdosing 16:02 - Who Should Consider a "Heroic Dose" of Psychedelics? 18:04 - The Science of What Psilocybin Actually Does to Your Brain 19:54 - "Vertical" vs. "Horizontal" Psychedelics (Mushrooms vs. LSD/DMT) 22:12 - How a Hero Dose "Turns On The Lights" in Your Mind 24:39 - How Psychedelics Define My View of God & Religion 27:01 - Unlocking The "Ethereal Mycelium Network" 28:33 - Does Psychedelic Use Align with Organized Religion? 30:39 - Why I Can No Longer Support My "Home Team" 33:44 - I Lost $6.5 Million and Almost Got Myself Killed 36:10 - My Stance on Cannabis After Leaving The Industry 38:20 - My Book Deal Imploded, The Housing Crisis & Michael Jackson 41:45 - The Critical Difference Between Weed and Mushrooms 44:12 - The Downsides of Weed vs. Psilocybin 47:32 - Is It Possible to Get "Stuck" in a Bad Trip? 50:16 - Is Using Psychedelics for Growth "Cheating"? 53:04 - The Ancient & Mystical History of Psychedelics 55:25 - Why There Is a Stigma Against Psychedelics 58:05 - A Breakdown of Our Life-Optimizing Formulas 1:01:21 - How to Find Your Perfect Microdosing Protocol 1:05:33 - Does The Effect of Microdosing Wear Off? 1:08:32 - What Makes Our Brand Different From The Rest? 1:10:33 - Our Unrivaled Approach to Customer Service 1:14:24 - Where to Find More Information & A Discount Code

You'll learn what the science says about cutting back (even partially), how to rewire your drinking habits using positive reinforcement, and why “mostly dry” is more than enough.If you're ready to ditch the all-or-nothing mindset and start building real momentum with your relationship with alcohol, this episode will help you do it — one small decision at a time. In This Episode:Why “failing” Dry January doesn't mean starting overWhat research says about partial reductions in alcoholThe real reason willpower isn't working — and what to try insteadHow to use temptation bundling to feel good about changeWhy moderation isn't an excuse — it's a skillResources & Links:Download the Temptation Bundling Worksheet Create alcohol-free routines that feel good — not forced.  Download the PDFExplore Drink-Less Success A 30-day neuroscience-based support system for peaceful drinking habits.  Start Drink-Less SuccessTry the Sunnyside App (15-day free trial) Molly's top recommendation for mindful drink tracking.  Join SunnysideLow risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more.

Today I'm sitting down with world-leading exercise physiologist Professor Stuart Phillips, PhD, to cut through the noise around strength training, protein, fasting, and midlife muscle. We talk about why women don't need a completely different training programme than men, why just two resistance sessions a week can meaningfully improve strength and long-term health, and why consistency matters far more than “perfect” protein timing or supplements. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • Whether women need different strength training programmes than men • How little resistance training is needed to protect muscle and aging • Why lifting across all rep ranges builds better long-term results • How cardio and strength training interact (and sometimes compete) • How much protein women actually need per day and per meal • Why protein timing matters far less than total intake • Whether fasted training harms muscle, hormones, or recovery • How under-fueling quietly sabotages strength and adaptation Timestamps00:00 Strength Training Myths for Women 02:31 Why Lean Women May Struggle to Gain Muscle 05:17 Muscle vs Strength vs Power Explained 17:31 How Much Protein Do Women Really Need? 26:48 Protein Per Meal: Absorption, Timing & Anabolic Window 34:24 Carbohydrates, Performance & Insulin Sensitivity 37:34 Fasted Training: Risks, Benefits & Reality42:43 Optimising Post-Workout Nutrition 47:41 Balancing Cardio & Strength Training 52:19 Aging, DEXA Scans & What Really Matters VALUABLE RESOURCES A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible:• Hormone Harmony – Go to https://lvluphealth.com/angela | Use code ANGELA for an exclusive 15% off ABOUT THE GUEST Professor Stuart Phillips, PhD is a world-renowned exercise physiologist and Professor at McMaster University, internationally recognised for his research on muscle protein synthesis, aging, resistance training, and nutrition.

I am thrilled to start the new year by sharing a conversation with a longtime friend and student, Keith Tomaselli. Keith, while he might deny it, is an impressive, experienced, avid runner, and is one of the founders of the Northern Liberties Run Club in Philly. When he isn't running with the club, Keith says he prefers to run solo miles over races—yet here are just some of his running highlights:- He's completed 19 Broad Street Runs - 7 half marathons- 9 full marathons (PR 3:21 at Marine Corps)- 9 ultras, including a 50-miler at Dirty German (2017).He came to my Broga class in Philly after a chance meeting me at, of all places, a South Philly brewery called Brewery ARS, and after a few pints, we sparked up a conversation about my male-specific class, and Keith decided to give it a shot. Keith is a great example of a regular guy who came to yoga extremely tight, injured, in serious pain and with zero experience practicing yoga. Now, it has been seven years since Keith has been practicing Broga and Iyengar yoga with Gabriel Sigal, and the progress he has made is nothing short of inspiring. He joins me to discuss:What his process was like becoming a yogi or I like to say, a bro-gi. Why he decided to come to an all-male yoga class. What the benefits are of practicing men's-specific yoga.How the low-key vibe of Broga where “regular” dudes take their practice seriously, but don't take themselves seriously, is a great fit for him, and how yoga informs his running and vice-versa.And how communities, regular practices and social gatherings – like Broga and his NLRC are the key for his physical, social and mental health. Link to Northern Liberties Run Club Website.Link to NLRC Instagram.Support the show

In this episode, Dr. Jockers explains why dangerous belly fat isn't a calorie issue but a hormone issue, and why insulin control is the real key to fat loss. You'll learn how visceral fat actively drives inflammation, aging, and chronic disease, even in people who appear healthy on the outside. This sets the foundation for understanding what actually blocks fat burning in the body.   You'll discover how elevated insulin locks the body into fat-storage mode and why common symptoms like cravings, brain fog, stubborn weight, and low energy are warning signs of insulin resistance. The episode connects these symptoms to deeper metabolic dysfunction rather than willpower or discipline.   You'll also learn the daily habits that flip your metabolism from storing fat to burning it, including how food quality, sleep, movement, and muscle directly impact insulin levels. Along the way, Dr. Jockers shares practical strategies that improve metabolic flexibility while leaving room for deeper insights as you listen.   In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction and Importance of Good Sleep 00:12 New Year Greetings and Episode Overview 00:27 Burning Dangerous Belly Fat 00:39 Health Coaching and Resources 03:16 Understanding Visceral Fat and Inflammation 04:05 Role of Insulin in Fat Burning 05:02 Signs of High Insulin Levels 06:17 Dietary Changes to Lower Insulin 07:26 Importance of Whole Foods and Healthy Fats 08:06 Benefits of Colorful Fruits and Vegetables 09:10 Incorporating Herbs and Spices 09:25 Building Muscle and Exercise 10:22 Prioritizing Good Sleep 11:25 Reducing Toxic Load and Environmental Factors 12:39 Final Tips and Conclusion   Hair loss isn't caused by age but by hair follicles being switched off, and Swiss researchers discovered how to turn them back on with Purality Health - AnaGain Nu, a clinically proven compound extracted from pea sprouts that stimulates hair follicle cells and pushes them back into the growth phase.
