"Cannabis saved me. I started remembering my day; I didn't have side effects, like hyperhidrosis, and I had a lot less anxiety." – Aspen Noonan   Aspen Noonan is the CEO of Elevate Holistics, a thriving telemedicine company specializing in the medical cannabis industry. Rising to CEO at just 26, Aspen started her journey as the company's first employee and has since built a 50-plus-member team across 18 states. Aspen is recognized for her innovative leadership, combining empathy and determination with a mission to help others by fostering a purpose-driven approach. Her endeavor to revolutionize cannabis access through holistic methods aligns well with her personal narrative of transformation and advocacy.   Episode Summary: Join Jana Short in this insightful episode of "Oh My Health...There is Hope" as she welcomes Aspen Noonan, a visionary leader and advocate in the realm of medical cannabis and holistic health. Aspen shares her powerful story of overcoming early medical challenges with the aid of cannabis, sparking her journey from a novice to an industry leader. Through Elevate Holistics, Aspen has been instrumental in advancing access to cannabis for medical purposes, focusing on aiding individuals to enhance their quality of life. In this episode, Aspen and Jana delve deep into how medical cannabis can be an effective solution for conditions like anxiety and chronic pain. Aspen explains the nuances of obtaining a medical marijuana card, highlighting the economic and quality benefits over recreational purchases due to tax savings. The process simplicity, support, and accessibility offered by Elevate Holistics are emphasized, offering listeners a comprehensive guide to navigating the cannabis landscape. For those interested in integrating holistic practices into their healthcare routine, this episode serves as a crucial resource, offering avenues for exploring and understanding the legal and health aspects of cannabis use.   Key Takeaways: Medical cannabis offers substantial benefits for managing anxiety, chronic pain, and other conditions, but it should be used responsibly and occasionally, much like any other medication. Obtaining a medical marijuana card can provide significant cost savings due to lower taxes on medical cannabis purchases compared to recreational ones. The process of obtaining a medical card is simplified by companies like Elevate Holistics, which provide guidance and support throughout the application process. Cannabis should be viewed as a complementary therapy; an integrative approach combining holistic and Western medicine practices can enhance overall well-being. The use of cannabis in minors should be approached with caution, considering alternative methods and professional advice before opting for cannabinoids.   Resources: elevate-holistics.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/aspen-noonan-242545110/ elevate.holistics elevateholistic Use code HOLISTICLIFE at checkout for 25% off a medical card in any state we practice in.   ✨ Enjoying the show?

I've never heard a podcast on nicotine that I was impressed with because tobacco is usually bashed, or if the podcast is about tobacco it is all about energy and the teacher aspect of the plant. That was the primary inspiration to have this monologue on why I smoke a cigar almost everyday. I talk about: the antivírál, anti fungal, and neuroprotective effects of cembranoid diterpenes in tobacco and how their mechanism of action differs from nicotine, how tobacco protects us from organophosphates, the controversial research on pregnancy and how smoking tobacco reduces complications, my four top supplements that every smoker should be taking everyday, the multiple ways that melatonin supplementation protects the lungs and vascular system, the cadmium and tobacco connection and which supplement remedies that problem, and much more. Big tobacco did not sponsor this podcast and I have no affiliate link for cigars, although I share my favorite brands at the end. You are on your own on sourcing them.

In this episode, you'll learn: What sulforaphane actually is (and why it matters) How it activates phase II detoxification pathways Why broccoli sprouts are more potent than mature broccoli Neuroprotective and brain benefits Research around skin and melanoma protection Dosage guidance for sprouts vs. supplements How to safely incorporate them into your daily routine This isn't about trendy superfoods. It's about turning on your body's built-in defense systems. Small daily choices. Powerful cellular protection.   Key Timestamps 00:01 – Welcome & why broccoli sprouts matter 03:14 – Broccoli sprouts vs. mature broccoli: what's the difference? 06:21 – What exactly is sulforaphane? 09:24 – Phase II detoxification explained simply 15:23 – Dr. Anna's powerful clinical case using sulforaphane 17:31 – Brain health & neurocognitive benefits 24:43 – How much should you take daily? 31:24 – Skin health & melanoma research 33:35 – Food vs. supplement: dosage considerations 42:13 – One big takeaway for healthy aging   Memorable Quotes "This isn't about complicated science.

“How am I going to get any credibility?" This is the question that paralyzes most new producers. But waiting for "gray hair" to build authority is a waste of time.

Happy Valentine's Day from The Crushing Debt Podcast! What is "good debt?" What is "bad debt?" What is debt that is neither good or bad? In this week's episode, Shawn & George talk about the difference between "good" and "bad" debt, including a four-question debt test: Does the debt help you earn more money? Is the interest rate under control? Would "future me" thank "present me" for this decision? If I lost my income tomorrow, would this payment wreck me?

Summary of How to scale a world class culture in your franchise: Want to know how to franchise a business and maintain world-class culture across thousands of locations? Discover the exact franchise growth strategies that took Anytime Fitness from a single 24-hour gym concept to the #1 fitness franchise in the world—with over 4,000 employees sporting brand tattoos (and they're not even corporate employees). In this episode of the Customer Service Revolution podcast, John DiJulius interviews Dave Mortensen, co-founder of Purpose Brands—the largest portfolio of fitness, nutrition, and wellness franchise brands generating $3.7 billion in combined revenue across 7,000 locations in 50 countries. If you're a franchisor struggling with culture consistency, a business owner wondering if franchising is right for you, or a multi-unit franchise operator looking to scale, this conversation reveals the counterintuitive secrets behind building a franchise system so powerful that franchisees' employees willingly get brand tattoos. What You'll Learn: The "Fanchise" model: How to turn franchisees into fans who are emotionally invested in your brand's mission (not just the ROI)—the framework from Dave's new bestselling book Fanchise Your Franchise The 5-location rule: Why you should NEVER start franchising until you've proven the concept across multiple company-owned locations (Dave and Chuck owned/flipped 5 gyms before franchising) The franchise validation process: How rigorous franchisee selection prevents 99% of future culture problems—"We want franchisees who want to change lives, not just make money" Scalable culture systems: The exact playbooks, standards, and training that allow 7,000 locations to deliver consistent experiences without Dave being present The PLEASE standards: How borrowing customer experience frameworks from consultants like John DiJulius transformed their service culture into an actionable system The tattoo test: When 4,000+ people tattoo your brand on their bodies by choice, you've transcended transactional franchising—here's how to create that level of loyalty Dave Mortensen's Franchise Journey: Phase 1: The Consultant Era (Early Career) Started in fitness at 21, dropped out of college, worked his way up Met business partner Chuck Runyon on similar trajectory Started consulting firm helping gym owners with operations, sales, and member experience Traveled across US, Canada, Australia, Mexico working with big box and boutique gyms Key insight: "People were passionate about fitness but didn't know how to run the business—Chuck and I could drive results AND write it down" Phase 2: The Operator Era (1995-2002) Bought first gym in 1995—the same gym where Dave worked front desk for $4/hour Grew it from 400 to 4,000 members, then sold it Started buying, remodeling, and flipping gyms successfully Owned 5 locations simultaneously at peak Key insight: "We said we need to start SHOWING people we know how to do it, not just telling them" Phase 3: The Franchise Era (2002-Present) Opened first Anytime Fitness in 2002 with revolutionary 24/7 model Kept consulting firm and big box gym for 3 years, then sold everything to focus on Anytime Sold franchise #1 to a member who believed in the concept Today: Co-founder of Purpose Brands with 9 franchise brands across 50 countries Key insight: "We didn't just franchise a business model—we franchised a mission to change lives" The Purpose Brands Portfolio: 9 Franchise Brands Under One Umbrella: Anytime Fitness (World's #1 fitness franchise) Orangetheory Fitness The Bar Method Waxing the City Base Camp Fitness SUMHIIT Fitness Stronger U Nutrition Healthy Contributions Provision Security Total System Stats: $3.7 billion combined revenue 7,000+ locations 50 countries 6 million members served 4,000+ brand tattoos (just Anytime Fitness) The Franchise Culture Paradox Explained: The Problem Most Franchisors Face: "I opened my salon 33 years ago and we were great at customer service because 50% of our staff was me and my wife. Then we grew to multiple locations and the experience tanked because we weren't everywhere." - John DiJulius How Purpose Brands Solved It: Dave reveals the systems that allow franchisees' employees (not even corporate employees) to line up around the building to get brand tattoos at annual conferences—in the US, New Zealand, Australia, and beyond. Critical Franchising Insights: "You don't franchise a business—you franchise a mission" The difference between transactional franchising (buy a territory, make money) and transformational franchising (join a movement, change lives) "Find the 36-inch travel between talent and passion" Dave's framework for helping franchisees discover if they're in the right business—it's never 100% talent or 100% passion, but finding the balance point "We want franchisees who want to change lives, not just make money" The franchisee selection criteria that predicts long-term success better than net worth "Relationships create who we are—you are one of 50-100 that shaped our business" Why Dave credits consultants, mentors, and partners for Purpose Brands' success (including John DiJulius for helping create the PLEASE service standards) "Create availability for people to find you—it makes it easier to make an impact" Leadership philosophy on accessibility that translates to franchise support systems When to Franchise Your Business (Dave's Criteria): ✓ Proven unit economics across multiple locations (not just one lucky store) ✓ Replicable systems that someone else can execute without you ✓ Mission-driven model that attracts passionate operators, not just investors ✓ Scalable training that maintains culture as you grow ✓ Clear standards documented in playbooks (the "write it down" principle) Franchise Growth Strategies That Work: 1. The Consulting-to-Ownership Bridge Dave and Chuck consulted for years before owning, which taught them what works across different markets and models 2. The Flip-and-Learn Model Buying, improving, and selling gyms taught them rapid value creation and what levers drive results 3. The Mission-First Sale First franchise sold to a member who believed in the concept—not a business investor looking for ROI 4. The Playbook Obsession "Write it down"—documenting every procedure so franchisees can execute at scale 5. The Partner Selection Dave: passionate about fitness + talent in business Chuck: passionate about business + talent in operations Perfect complement creates unstoppable partnership For Corporate/Non-Franchise Businesses: Question to Dave: "Does someone have to be in the franchise world to engage you? Could KeyBank or another corporate entity learn from you?" Dave's Answer: "Absolutely. Anyone that wants to develop a culture that is scalable—that they can scale within their system—is something we can be a part of." Translation: The principles that allow 7,000 franchise locations to maintain culture work just as well for corporate multi-location businesses, distributed teams, or any organization struggling with consistency at scale. New Book: Fanchise Your Franchise Third book from Dave Mortensen and Chuck Runyon Core Concept: Transform franchisees from transactional business owners into passionate fans who champion your mission Who Should Read It: Franchisors with 10-100 locations struggling to maintain culture Business owners considering franchising but unsure if they're ready Multi-unit operators wanting to improve franchisee engagement Corporate leaders looking to scale culture across distributed locations Anyone building a business that needs to maintain standards without being everywhere Where to Get It: 4PGuys.com (the "4P Guys"—Dave and Chuck's consulting/speaking platform) Perfect For: Franchisors wanting to scale culture beyond 100 locations Business owners evaluating if franchising is the right growth strategy Multi-unit franchise operators looking to improve unit consistency Fitness/wellness entrepreneurs specifically in gym, boutique fitness, nutrition spaces Corporate leaders of multi-location businesses struggling with "employee roulette" CEOs who want to understand why some franchise systems thrive while others implode Key Quotes from Dave Mortensen: Franchising vs Corporate Growth: "We didn't just franchise a business model—we franchised a mission to change lives. That's why their employees get tattoos, not ours." Franchisee Selection: "We want franchisees who want to change lives, not just make money. If you're only in it for ROI, you won't survive the hard times." Talent vs Passion: "You'll never be 100% talented at what you're most passionate about, and vice versa. But when you find the 36-inch travel between the two, you just found your career." Scalable Leadership: "Chuck and I were absolutely different. Chuck was passionate about the business. I was passionate about fitness. That's what made us unstoppable together." Helping Others: "If I can help people find what I've been lucky to have—an incredible business partner, a thriving business, a great family—that's my passion now." Resources Mentioned: Book: Fanchise Your Franchise by Dave Mortensen & Chuck Runyon Website: 4PGuys.com (consulting, speaking, franchise advisory) Purpose Brands Portfolio: 9 franchise brands across fitness, nutrition, wellness, security Previous Books: (Two prior books from Dave & Chuck on franchising/business building) Tactical Takeaways: For Businesses Considering Franchising: Don't franchise until you've proven the model across 3-5 locations minimum Document every system in written playbooks before selling franchise #1 Select franchisees based on mission alignment, not just capital For Existing Franchisors: Audit: Are you franchising a mission or just a business model? Ask: Would franchisees' employees tattoo your brand? If not, why not? Implement: Customer service standards as action words (like Purpose Brands' PLEASE framework) For Corporate Multi-Location Leaders: Steal the franchise playbook approach even if you're not franchising Create "write it down" culture so anyone can execute without you present Hire the Dave/Chuck complement—balance technical passion with business acumen Why This Matters: Most franchisors struggle to maintain culture past 50 locations. Purpose Brands maintains it across 7,000 locations in 50 countries—and has franchisees' employees tattooing the brand voluntarily. The difference? They don't franchise businesses. They franchise missions. They don't sell territories. They recruit believers. They don't manage franchisees. They empower fans. This interview reveals the exact systems, mindsets, and frameworks that create "Fanchises" instead of franchises.

Employee benefits strategy has become one of the most important levers for sustainable business growth. As healthcare costs continue to rise and employees struggle to understand and use their benefits effectively, leaders are being forced to rethink how benefits fit into the larger picture of culture, retention, and performance. The companies getting it right are no longer treating benefits as a necessary expense, but as a strategic advantage. Reid Rasmussen has spent years helping employers navigate this shift. As Co-Founder and CEO of FreshBenies, Reid has built a company focused on cutting benefits costs while removing the confusion that often leaves employees disengaged and frustrated. His work centers on a simple belief: when employees understand and trust their benefits, businesses operate more efficiently and grow stronger. FreshBenies was designed to address the real pain points employers face every day. Rising premiums, higher out-of-pocket expenses, and underutilized benefits have created a system that works against both employers and employees. Reid's approach reframes employee benefits strategy as a tool for empowerment, combining healthcare advocacy, concierge-style navigation, telehealth access, and prescription savings into one streamlined experience. This clarity matters. When employees feel overwhelmed by benefits, they avoid using them or make costly decisions that impact both their health and the company's bottom line. A smarter employee benefits strategy reduces friction, increases utilization, and builds trust between organizations and their teams. That trust becomes a foundation for stronger engagement and long-term retention. Reid's leadership perspective is shaped not only by benefits innovation but also by how he runs his company. FreshBenies has operated as a remote team since 2009, long before remote work became mainstream. That experience has reinforced the importance of values-based leadership, clear communication, and systems that support people regardless of location. For Reid, employee benefits strategy is inseparable from leadership strategy. Ford Saeks brings a complementary lens to the conversation, grounded in business growth and scalability. Having worked with organizations across industries, Ford consistently emphasizes that growth is not driven by tactics alone. It comes from alignment between systems, culture, and leadership. Benefits are often overlooked in that equation, yet they play a critical role in how employees perceive their employer and their own value within the organization. A strong employee benefits strategy also signals something deeper about leadership priorities. It shows that a company is willing to invest in clarity, access, and employee wellbeing rather than defaulting to complexity and cost-shifting. That mindset resonates in today's labor market, where employees are more informed, more mobile, and more selective about where they work. Beyond benefits design, Reid is a passionate advocate for continual learning and leadership development. He believes that companies grow when leaders commit to understanding their people, listening to feedback, and making decisions rooted in shared values. That philosophy shows up not only in how FreshBenies serves employers, but in how the company builds its own internal culture. Employee benefits strategy is no longer a back-office function. It is a front-line growth decision that affects recruitment, retention, productivity, and trust. Businesses that embrace this reality are better positioned to compete, adapt, and scale in an increasingly complex environment. FreshBenies continues to demonstrate how simplifying benefits can create meaningful impact. By reducing confusion and empowering employees, Reid Rasmussen has helped organizations transform benefits from a source of frustration into a driver of smarter business growth.

"What we see is clear," says Cory Johnson, Big Tech will spend big on CapEx. He urges investors to follow the money, pointing to chipmakers, networking, and data centers as some of the biggest beneficiaries. Cory adds that risk comes with hyperscalers like Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL), and Amazon (AMZN) not knowing the scope of AI's future impact. One corner of the tech trade he sees as a continuing winner: memory chips like Micron (MU). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Every marketing strategy works. Funnels work. Social media works. Ads work. DMs work. The question isn't what works, it's what works for YOU and the business you actually want to build. Today I'm joined by Landon Poburan, a serial entrepreneur and marketing strategist who's managed over $15 million in advertising across 10+ years. After going $42K in debt, experiencing clinical burnout, and building businesses he wanted to escape from, he completely pivoted to what he calls an "un-hustled philosophy" and now runs a thriving business working 4-6 hours per day.We're unpacking why every marketing strategy actually works but not every single one is going to work for you (and how to identify what aligns with your values and lifestyle), the real difference between brand building and conversion-focused marketing and where these two intersect (this explanation is the best I've ever heard), why consistency beats tactics every single time and how to set realistic expectations when building something sustainable, the dangerous trap of building a business based on somebody else's definition of success (and how to avoid it), a complete masterclass on Substack and how it allowed Landon to build nine revenue streams with writing (with minimal video, no photo shoots, no endless content creation), why being early on emerging platforms can be massive leverage, the formula for marketing success: quality times quantity (not quality OR quantity), how marketing is actually as much mindset as it is strategy, and why things take the time they take (no shortcuts, no guarantees, just consistent effort toward what you actually want).If you've been drowning in marketing advice, jumping from strategy to strategy, or building a business you're starting to hate, this episode will completely reframe how you think about marketing and what success actually means for you.Timestamps: 01:58 Marketing Strategies and Brand Building06:38 The Importance of Consistency and Realistic Expectations09:58 Balancing Conversion and Brand Building25:22 The Role of Consistency in Business Success36:20 Quality vs. Quantity in Content Creation44:54 The Future of Personal Branding and AI49:08 Landon's Substack Journey51:37 The Growth and Potential of Substack52:58 The Benefits of Writing on Substack56:00 The Importance of Building a Personal Brand57:44 AI and the Future of Content Creation59:54 Rapid Fire Substack Questions01:03:27 Leveraging Substack for Business GrowthConnect with Landon: Subscribe to Landon's SubstackInstagramWebsite To join the Ambitious Network for free, click HERE.

In this podcast episode, an in-depth discussion is provided on the drug Telmisartan, commonly used for lowering blood pressure. The host elaborates on how it belongs to a class of medications known as angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) and stands out due to its 24-hour half-life and partial PPAR-gamma agonist activity.  The episode explores Telmisartan's potential benefits for longevity, including its properties that reduce cardiovascular mortality, renal decline, and metabolic issues. It also compares Telmisartan with other ARBs and addresses its unique ability to improve myocardial efficiency, reduce arterial stiffness, and support neuroprotection. Detailed explanations are given on technical concepts such as pulse pressure and its relevance to arterial compliance, and the necessity to consult a doctor before taking the medication is emphasized.   Telmisartan / ARBs (main topic) Telmisartan — MedlinePlus drug info: https://medlineplus.gov/druginfo/meds/a601249.html Blood pressure meds overview (includes ARBs): https://medlineplus.gov/bloodpressuremedicines.html Key mechanisms mentioned PPARγ (PPARG) — NCBI Gene: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/5468 Endothelium + nitric oxide (NO) — NCBI Bookshelf: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK534266/ Angiotensin / aldosterone / "fight-or-flight" Aldosterone test — MedlinePlus lab test: https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/aldosterone-test/ Sympathetic nervous system ("fight-or-flight") — Cleveland Clinic explainer: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/body/23262-sympathetic-nervous-system-sns-fight-or-flight Lab tests mentioned in the episode Fasting insulin ("Insulin in Blood") — MedlinePlus lab test: https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/insulin-in-blood/ Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) — MedlinePlus lab test: https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/hemoglobin-a1c-hba1c-test/ C-reactive protein (CRP) — MedlinePlus lab test: https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/c-reactive-protein-crp-test/ Arterial stiffness / pulse pressure (longevity framing) Pulse pressure & arterial stiffness as risk predictors — PubMed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11224702/ Visceral fat resource mentioned Dr. Sean O'Mara website: https://drseanomara.com/   Show Notes   00:00 Welcome to the Hart2Heart Podcast. 01:22 Understanding Angiotensin and Its Effects 02:14 How ARBs Work and Their Benefits 03:00 Unique Properties of Telmisartan 03:36 Comparing Telmisartan with Other ARBs 04:44 Telmisartan's Impact on Endurance and Fat Loss 05:59 Telmisartan and Cardiovascular Health 09:57 Blood Pressure Basics and Pulse Pressure 18:54 Telmisartan's Role in Longevity and Dosing 27:28 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   The Hart2Heart podcast is hosted by family physician Dr. Michael Hart, who is dedicated to cutting through the noise and uncovering the most effective strategies for optimizing health, longevity, and peak performance.

Solitude is not a punishment; rather, it is an essential practice that allows us to tap into our true selves amidst the chaos of everyday life. I highlight the importance of carving out alone time, regardless of whether you're an introvert, extrovert, or ambivert, because life's demands can easily overwhelm us, leaving little room for self-reflection.Reflecting on my recent experiences, I discuss how the pressures of daily interactions and responsibilities can lead to feelings of being swamped and disconnected from the present moment. I share my realization that, with so much external noise, I found myself bouncing between past regrets and future anxieties instead of embracing the here and now. This made me yearn for solitude, which I realized is a personal choice I must prioritize.I delve into the distinction between loneliness and solitude—where loneliness signifies a sense of disconnection, solitude allows for the opportunity to reconnect with oneself. By stepping away from the demands of our surroundings, we can better process our thoughts and gather clarity. I emphasize that retreats, whether they be for meditation or simply quiet time at home, serve as powerful catalysts for introspection.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #AnxietyCoaches, #ACPSolitude, #AlohaSpiritMindset, #AnxietyCoachesCommunity, #TheRichnessOfSelf, #LetTheDustSettle, #RespondingNotReacting, #ClearTheSlate, #SubconsciousBubbling, #AnxietyRelief, #Solitude, #MentalHealthMatters, #SelfCare, #Mindfulness, #PersonalGrowth, #InnerPeace, #MentalClarity, #Recharge, #SelfReflection, #WellnessJourney, #IntrovertLife, #PresentMoment, #Journaling, #EmotionalWellbeing, #StressRelief, #Healing, #SpiritualGrowth, #HealthyBoundaries, #AnxietySupport, #MentalHealthAwareness, #PanicAttackRecovery, #CalmYourMind, #ACP, #GinaRyanSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're going to talk about redshirting now, which is when parents chose to delay when their child starts school, so they are at the older end of the class. For those of you wondering why it is called "redshirting" the name originates from American college sport, where a student athlete sits out of competition for one year to develop skills and retain eligibility, often wearing a red shirt. In New Zealand we don't collect data on the age children start school, but in Australia, statistics show the number of parents opting to delay has more than doubled since 2014. So, it is it a good idea, and what about holding kids back a year once they are actually at school? Parenting Place Senior coach Jenny Hale discusses with Jesse.

Stefan Molyneux examines the difficult decision to separate from toxic or abusive family members, advising that honest communication should be tried first even though genuine change is often impossible. He draws a firm distinction between involuntary blood ties and chosen relationships, insisting that family loyalty must never override personal safety or mental health, and suggests therapy as a tool to clarify whether to stay or leave—though it guarantees nothing. He rejects the prevailing view that family must always come first, arguing that staying entangled with destructive people blocks healthier connections and perpetuates harm. Ultimately, he maintains that separation, however painful, typically fosters personal growth and breaks destructive cycles, creating a safer environment for any future children or generations.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

What if the missing piece to your wellness journey wasn't a supplement or a workout… but light? In this podcast, we're talking about one of the most underrated tools in health and hormone optimization: red light therapy. Expert in the area, Ari Whitten, joins me to shine light on red light and all the ways it can boost your health and confidence long term. Ari is a bestselling author, a top podcast host, and one of the most trusted voices in the science of energy, mitochondria, and red light therapy. In this episode, we cover: Why red light therapy is a game-changer for women in midlife How it impacts your hormones, sleep, brain, skin, and fat metabolism What most people get completely wrong about red light dosing And how to avoid wasting money on the wrong devices Ari's here to cut through the wellness noise and deliver the truth—with clarity and science to back it up. Tune in here for a deep dive into all red light therapy can do for you!  Ari Whitten, M.S. Ari Whitten is the founder of The Energy Blueprint and bestselling author of The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy and Eat for Energy. He has a B.S. in Exercise Science and a Master of Science in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine. For over 30 years, he's immersed himself in nutrition science, exercise physiology, and evolutionary biology, as well as cutting-edge areas like neuroscience, geroscience, circadian science, microbiome research, and more. He hosts The Energy Blueprint Podcast, and his books, online programs, coaching, and nutritional supplement line have helped thousands of people worldwide to optimize their health, energy, and longevity. IN THIS EPISODE What is red light therapy, and how can it benefit your health?  How to make time for red light therapy in your routine  The importance of high-quality red light therapy  Different red light devices for targeting your needs in the body  The science and studies behind red light therapy  How to maximize systemic benefits of red light therapy  About Ari's book: The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy QUOTES“There's an enormous amount of poor quality devices, worthless devices, junk devices on the market that are a waste of money that won't do anything valuable.” “If your interest is combating arthritis or affecting a certain muscle or tendon injury or ankle sprain or something like that, you want to focus on the dose of light delivered directly to those tissues. On the other hand, if you are interested in general anti-aging health longevity... The bigger concern is actually the total dose of light delivered to your overall body.” “A lot of the focus is on the intensity of the light… But the other thing is: how big of a surface area is that intensity of light hitting? What is the total amount of light delivered to the tissue? That's going to hugely impact those systemic effects like the release of stem cells into your circulation.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order Ari's book: The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy on Amazon https://theenergyblueprint.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Guide-Light-Therapy-Revised/ The Energy Blueprint Website The Energy Blueprint Podcast RELATED EPISODES  623: RED LIGHT THERAPY FOR UPGRADING YOUR MITOCHONDRIA, CELLULAR ENERGY, SKIN AND BRAIN HEALTH WITH JONATHAN OTTO 693: TIRED ALL THE TIME?

In this episode, I sit down with neuroscientist, entrepreneur, and writer Anne-Laure Le Cunff for a conversation about curiosity, self-trust, and what it really means to live without needing certainty.We explore why the linear path so many of us are taught to follow often creates more pressure than clarity, and how adopting an experimental mindset can help you build resilience, confidence, and a deeper relationship with yourself. Anne-Laure shares insights from her book Tiny Experiments, including why having multiple identities supports mental health, how self-trust is built through curiosity rather than control, and why the obsession with finding a singular life purpose can actually keep us stuck.This episode is an invitation to loosen your grip on needing all the answers, tune into what feels alive, and give yourself permission to evolve—one experiment at a time.⭐️YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS: Please: Subscribe + leave 5⭐️Star rating +review HEREEnjoy! xRxFIND ME ON:️INSTAGRAMSUBSTACKYOUTUBEXTHREADSFIND ANNE-LAURE ON:IGWEB

Black cumin seed oil has a long history of traditional use, and its benefits trace to thymoquinone. However, it also contains the omega-6 fat linoleic acid (LA), which exposes you to risks that may outweigh its benefits Thymoquinone makes up only about 0.1% to 0.9% of black cumin seed oil, so obtaining meaningful amounts through this oil requires consuming substantial quantities of LA Black cumin seed oil contains roughly 50% to 62% LA by weight, placing it in the same high-LA category as other vegetable oils, such as cottonseed oil Typical dosing of 1 to 3 teaspoons daily delivers roughly 2.5 to 7.5 grams of LA, representing a meaningful increase over an already elevated modern baseline intake Standardized thymoquinone extracts are a better alternative, commonly sold as 5%, 10%, or 20% formulations. These allow you to obtain benefits from a traditional remedy without the LA burden
