What can AOC's decision to freeze her eggs tell us about fertility, reproductive technology, and our desire to control the future? In this episode of Wisdom of the Body, Heather Grzych explores egg freezing, IVF, fertility preservation, and what actually happens when sperm meets an egg, including the remarkable "zinc sparks" scientists can observe during egg activation. Through real fertility stories, modern reproductive medicine, and an ancient image from Genesis, Heather asks a deeper question: Does understanding the mechanics of reproduction mean we understand the mystery of life?This isn't an argument against egg freezing or IVF. It's an exploration of what reproductive technology can give us—time, options, and possibility—and what it can never give us: certainty about the future.  Heather Grzych, ADLC is an author, healthcare strategist, and host of the Wisdom of the Body podcast, a top 2.5% global podcast. A former president of the National Ayurvedic Medical Association, healthcare executive, and clinician who has guided women through high-stakes fertility decisions, Heather has spent her career helping people navigate uncertainty where health, strategy, and human behavior intersect.

She faithfully followed Jesus through His crucifixion, witnessed His burial, encountered the risen Christ, and was entrusted with the extraordinary responsibility of announcing His resurrection.The episode also examines how cultural assumptions can sometimes influence Christian interpretation and why believers should distinguish biblical teaching from traditions that may have developed later.Jamie's central message is simple but powerful: God is better than we have imagined, He profoundly loves women, and He purposefully includes them in His redemptive work.This conversation encourages both men and women to recognize that God works through willing, faithful believers and that the Body of Christ is strongest when believers honor one another while keeping Jesus and His redemptive mission at the center.In This EpisodeJamie Hulker's personal faith journeyStudying Scripture verse by verseWomen throughout God's redemptive planDeborah's leadership in JudgesMary Magdalene and the resurrection of JesusLydia and the Gospel entering EuropePhoebe, Priscilla, Junia, and Romans 16Paul's relationship with female coworkersBiblical calling versus cultural expectationsWhy secondary theological issues should not divide the ChurchMen and women working together in the Body of ChristFaithfulness, obedience, calling, and Christian purposeRestoring biblical conversations that honor God and one anotherKeywords / TagsJamie Hulker, Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, Kingdom Crossroads Podcast, TS Wright, CPE Summer 2026, Christian Product Expo, women in the Bible, women in ministry, women in God's redemptive plan, biblical women, Mary Magdalene, Deborah in the Bible, Lydia Bible, Phoebe Romans 16, Priscilla and Aquila, Junia Bible, Romans 16 women, Apostle Paul women, Paul and women, Christian women, women of faith, women and Christianity, biblical womanhood, Christian leadership, women in church leadership, women in the early church, God's purpose for women, God's calling, redemptive plan, Body of Christ, Christian discipleship, Bible study, Christian author, Christian books, Christian podcast, Christian interviews, biblical theology, biblical equality, spiritual calling, Gospel of Jesus Christ, resurrection of Jesus, Great CommissionCall to ActionAre you ready to look again at what Scripture says about the men and women God uses to accomplish His purposes?

Postpartum body talk can get so loud. The bounce-back pressure. The timelines. The before-and-afters. The feeling that your body is something to fix as quickly as possible after it just did the most incredible thing. But mama, what if your postpartum body does not need your punishment? What if it needs your awe? In this bonus episode of Embrace Your Real, I'm sharing what I wish more moms knew about their bodies after having a baby, especially when the world keeps telling them to hurry up and "get back." This is a conversation about honoring your body, rebuilding with simple habits, and learning why the slow route may be the thing that gets you further than rushing ever could. What's Discussed: Why postpartum can change the way you see your body How awe can shift the way you treat your body after having a baby Why getting back into movement does not have to be complicated The two simple habits that supported my postpartum season Why obsessing over daily results can make the journey feel heavier How slow, steady consistency can create real change over time Why the "fast route" often leads to more starting over When movement feels like the promise you are ready to keep, the Movement With Julie app gives you five brand-new workouts each week that are challenging, effective, and time efficient with minimal equipment. The workouts are designed to help you honor your body through movement at home, at the gym, or wherever this season of motherhood has you. Head to movementwithjulie.com to get started. And if fueling your body feels confusing in this season, Macro Counting Made Simple can help you understand your protein, carbs, and fats without restriction or overwhelm. It gives you a simple way to support your body, your energy, and your goals while still living your real life. Head to macrocountingmadesimple.com to get started.

Growing up, many of us were taught to just stay calm and carry on - as if stress was all in the mind, with no real effect on the body. But chronic stress can change your brain, raise your risk of heart disease, and even shorten your life.  In this episode, we ask: what happens when a stress response built to last minutes never switches off? Today, Professor Carmine Pariante, one of the world's leading researchers on stress, helps us understand what's happening in your body during a stressful moment and why chronic stress disrupts sleep, appetite, and energy levels. Carmine also explains how worried you should be about cortisol, and whether "cortisol face" and "cortisol belly" are backed by evidence. By the end, you'll understand why stress can be so powerful, when it becomes harmful, and have some evidence-based ways to manage it. Next time you reach for wine, your phone, or something sweet after a hard day, ask yourself: is this helping you cope, or helping you avoid how you feel?

There comes a moment when getting clear on the life you really want makes everything that doesn't align with it a whole lot easier to discern. In today's episode, I'm sharing what's coming into focus as I enter my personal new year. Everything from getting radically clear on the vision and letting go of everything that doesn't serve it, to softening with myself and listening more deeply to what my innermost world has been trying to say. We're also talking about artistry, integrity, and the courage it takes to share your work with the world.

Your body may be delivering the answer long before your mind catches up. Nikki sits down with bestselling author, meditation teacher, and holistic health coach Cassandra Bodzak to explore how body wisdom can shape better leadership and business decisions. Cassandra shares how food, rest, movement, mindfulness, and intuition influence everything from energy and creativity to hiring, partnerships, and team performance. Together, they unpack the difference between expansion and contraction, why leaders often override critical physical signals, and how creating a stronger personal foundation can improve both workplace culture and business results. This conversation is an invitation to slow down, listen closely, and lead from a place of greater alignment.   Additional Resources: Connect with Cassandra on LinkedIn Gain free access to: The Mindful Table Book Bonuses Page - use the code "gut+science" to redeem Watch Gut + Science (and more) on YouTube!

Your hormones aren't broken — they're communicating. In this episode, I'm walking you through the exact map I use with every client and inside my Soul Aligned framework: the energetic correlation between your seven major glands, their corresponding chakras, and the symptoms showing up in your body right now. We'll go gland by gland  and I'll show you how each one maps to a chakra, what it's asking of you when it's blocked, and the specific physical and emotional symptoms that show up when that center is out of alignment. But this episode is bigger than symptoms. It's about why alignment is the actual mechanism behind manifestation. You can vision board, affirm, and set intentions all day — but if your body is in a state of misalignment, you are not in a receptive state. Receiving requires a nervous system that feels safe, a body that isn't in survival mode, and an internal "yes" that isn't muffled by fear, grief, or an old belief still running the show. You cannot fully receive the life you're calling in while you're disconnected from your own body and out of alignment with the divine. Your glands and chakras are the communication line — and when that line is blocked, it's not just your hormones that suffer, it's your capacity to receive everything you've been asking for. In this episode, you'll learn: How your body is designed, and what it's communicating through your symptoms How to locate and release the root beliefs driving your hormone chaos What an authentic yes and no actually feel like in your body Why alignment — not effort — is the real mechanism behind manifestation and receiving How to start building a hormone protocol that's personalized to your specific system How to move from understanding your patterns to actually living differently inside them If you've been doing "everything right" and still aren't receiving the life you're calling in, this episode will show you what's actually blocking it — and why root-cause work has to include the energetic layer, not just the physical one. ✨ Mentioned in this episode: CLICK HERE to download my FREE Manifestation Mindset Makeover guide

Because it's kind of hard to become the version of yourself you want to be if you're not listening to the version of yourself that you are.Lesley Logan 0:08  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Brad Crowell 0:51  Take it away.Lesley Logan 0:52  Welcome back to the "Be It Till You See" interview recap, where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the informed convo I had with Dr. Amy Logan Tiffany in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to the interview, you missed on some good fucking stuff. Oh my god, I felt like my jaw was on the floor a couple of times. It was so good. But listen to this, then go listen to that. And spoiler alert: I already interviewed her for the second one. Yeah, I just did it yesterday.Brad Crowell 1:16  Wow, awesome!Lesley Logan 1:17  Because I was just, oh great, you're back, and it was really, really. It's a really nuanced conversation. I'll explain more later. But today, Brad's going to tell us what today is.Brad Crowell 1:26  Yeah, today's September 3rd 2026, and it is Merchant Navy Day. What is a merchant navy? You ask. Let's start with what it's not. The regular navy is a branch of the countries of a country's military responsible for national defense and maritime security. In contrast, a merchant navy or the merchant navy is a civilian commercial fleet that transports cargo and passengers globally to support international trade. So effectively, they work for a company that moves products around the world.Lesley Logan 1:53  You could be a merchant navy person and work for multiple different companies.Brad Crowell 1:57  That's right. So it has nothing to do with military. It has everything to do with being a ship pilot on a cargo ship, or even a deckhand, or whatever. If you're working in the ports, I'm not sure if you're on ports, if you're part of the merchant navy, but if you're on the boats that are driving around the world, you're.Lesley Logan 2:12  Like part of the merchant corporate.Brad Crowell 2:17  Sure. Not a pirate. Lesley Logan 2:19  Good, but a pirate.Brad Crowell 2:20  Pirates are real, so yeah, they're definitely not pirates. Okay, yeah, but the merchant navy actually would fight pirates. They're.Lesley Logan 2:26  Like a consumer sailor.Brad Crowell 2:28  Yes, yeah, it's like a, yes, that's right, a commercial sailor.Lesley Logan 2:32  Commercial sailor.Brad Crowell 2:33  Yes.Lesley Logan 2:34  Yeah.Brad Crowell 2:34  Yeah. But it's probably not sailing a boat so much as it is sailing a vessel. Lesley Logan 2:38  Vessel, yeah.Brad Crowell 2:39  Anyway, so Merchant Navy Day sails into view every September 3. Cute, a dedicated time to honor the invaluable contributions of merchant seafarers worldwide. These brave men and women ensure the flow of goods, fuel, and food that powers our daily lives and economies. Take a moment to learn about their sacrifices, support maritime welfare charities, and recognize their often unseen work.Lesley Logan 3:00  I couldn't imagine they're probably on these boats for months at a time.Brad Crowell 3:04  Oh, months.Lesley Logan 3:04  Months.Brad Crowell 3:05  Months. I mean.Lesley Logan 3:06  Months on one plate, and then have to come back. They might not ever see their family.Brad Crowell 3:09  Yes, yeah. So it's absolutely the case. And for example, when I used to work in skin and hair care, we used to manufacture the, the glass was actually manufactured in Korea, and so I would have to organize the factory to take it to the port, and then the port would put it on a, it would be in pallets, and then the pallets would get loaded into a container, those 40-foot containers, and then the container would go on this massive cargo ship, and then it would drive across the ocean. It'sLesley Logan 3:41  Like the size of cruise ships, but just for products.Brad Crowell 3:43  Yeah, and then one year there was a strike for the union workers at the port in Long Beach, and I remember our cargo ship got stuck in a line. Lesley, there was a line of 50 cargo ships.Lesley Logan 3:58  Do you remember? Because during the pandemic, it's even happened. I feel like our friend Joe Lilly had to send a ship out to a ship to get his stuff. It was a whole thing because there's, what the fuck? We got to get these products off the ship.Brad Crowell 4:09  Yeah, and that's very dangerous to do that stuff, you know, on the open water like that because there's just complicated.Lesley Logan 4:14  Yeah, so pirates.Brad Crowell 4:15  Well, not. I mean, when you have 50 boats in a row, there's unlikely that there's going to be pirates because there's also going to be the navy, the military, oh, the military navy, yeah, will be out making sure that everything is safe. But still, regardless, yeah, I mean, so they had to sail across the ocean, and then they turn around and they have to go back. But the company that they work for, they might be in a whole other country. It's like an airline pilot.Lesley Logan 4:37  Yeah.Brad Crowell 4:37  You know, for example, one time we were flying to Cambodia, and we were flying through China. And I think maybe it was just me. I sat next to a guy on the plane who was a pilot, and he's from Brazil, flies for a Chinese airline, and then his Chinese flights would go to Europe. His home is in Brazil. He had to fly to China to get on his flight, his job, to fly to Europe, back and forth to China, you know what I mean.Lesley Logan 5:02  Got to.Brad Crowell 5:03  Move, got to move.Lesley Logan 5:04  Got to move. Anyway, anyway, we have to point out what's going on right now.Brad Crowell 5:09  Yeah, what I wanted to point out right now is that at the time of this recording, there are around 6000 commercial seafarers remaining stranded aboard hundreds of merchant ships in and around the Strait of Hormuz following the sudden collapse of a U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement, so shipping through this vital energy corridor has ground to a near standstill due to the drones and missiles and all the signs that are goingLesley Logan 5:33  Oh, yeah.Brad Crowell 5:33  So hopefully by the time you're hearing this episode, trade is going to flow again, and there are no more trapped sailors. But it's been devastating. You know, they're not military. They're just trying to do their job, and they're stuck on these ships. And they're not getting food. And if they're getting sick, there's no way to get to them to even give them the supplies that they need. It's quite a problem. And sometimes it feels like it's getting solved, and then it all goes to shit again. So hopefully. Lesley Logan 5:57  I know we're over here talking about our gas prices, but there's literal people whose they're not involved with any country or military, and they're just trying to do their job and they're stuck.Brad Crowell 6:05  Yep. Yeah. So just raising awareness and a big, big shout out to those who do this kind of work for their job. Thanks for doing all that because you make the world go round.Lesley Logan 6:14  Yeah. Well, speaking of the world going round, I started teacher training program.Brad Crowell 6:20  Wow. Yeah.Lesley Logan 6:21  You know, because we got to keep bringing in new people to the Pilates industry. Brad Crowell 6:25  Yes, we do. Lesley Logan 6:25  Because some of us are going to retire someday. So, if you heard the rumor that I started teacher training program, I did. I'm here to let you know it's true, and it's called upLift. Starting early next year, you'll be able to find an epic teacher trainer near you that will host my program. I'm going to work alongside them, guiding them and coaching them and supporting them so that they can support you on your journey. So if you are a new teacher or partially trained Pilates instructor, if you want to study under what I've created and my material, you want to go to xxll.co/uws. That's upLift waitlist student, xxll.co/uws. If you're already a comprehensively trained teacher and you're looking for more of a master's program and you want to learn directly with me, that is going to be our eLevate program. That's lesleylogan.co/elevate. We are filling 2028 as we speak. 2027 is full, and only eLevate grads can apply to be an educator for upLift. So, just some food for thought on that. We have been home from our summer tour for a little bit, and we are hanging out. We're doing some good stuff. I'm super excited to be home because it's going to get real crazy real quick. But we want to say thank you to Balanced Body because they sponsored our tour. We're able to go to some really great new cities on our summer tour, and our winter tour will announce in less than a month. And you want to be on the wait list for that, opc.me/events, because the winter tour always does sell out really quickly, really quick, really quickly because we get to hit a lot of cities, a lot of little cities where stuff doesn't go to like conventions and things like that. We get to hit some of our favorite cities. Shout out to Hershey because you always sell out in some places like that. So make sure you are over there. Supporting this podcast when you listen and you share with friends and you leave reviews is one of the greatest things you can do. It's totally free, and I really, really appreciate it. But if you want to continue support the podcast in other ways, if you are an OPC member, that's one of my ways you can do that. And then you get Pilates, and you get support, and you get community, and you get my feedback on your form. So you can go to onlinepilatesclasses.com, or you can also check out our amazing flashcards. Our flashcards are different pieces of apparatus. They're for anyone who loves Pilates. They can be used in a variety of different ways, and you can go to opc.me/flashcards for that. By the way, when you buy our flashcards, a part of your purchase goes to Nevada SPCA. And you might be thinking, Lesley, I don't live in Nevada. Yeah, well, guess what? We got some dogs and cats and bunnies and chinchillas here. Sometimes some lizards that need a home, and you are helping do that. In fact, our last quarter donation supported 114 shelter animals' food for one whole week.Brad Crowell 8:50  Yeah.Lesley Logan 8:51  114.Brad Crowell 8:52  Yeah, that's pretty amazing.Lesley Logan 8:53  Yeah. So, anyways, you can also get our posters. So there's that opc.me/posters. Okay, this is getting longer and longer every week, Brad. Brad Crowell 9:02  Well, this is just quick. So, our upcoming travel stuff. We've got Cambodia coming up in October. If you want to join us on retreat there, get on the waitlist for next year. Go to crowsnestretretreats.com. Lesley and I are going to be in Sacramento for Balanced Body's 50th anniversary party. They have a POT happening in Sacramento, so you can go to xxll.co/pot for more information on that. Lesley's actually teaching in China. We have no idea how to tell you any more information about that. But that's exciting.Lesley Logan 9:27  I don't have any links. But, I'm teaching in China. The second annual Pilates summit outside of Shanghai.Brad Crowell 9:33  Yeah, that's in November. Then the beginning of December, you're teaching in India in Goa.Lesley Logan 9:38  Yeah, and am I crazy enough to go back and forth? Yes, I fucking am.Brad Crowell 9:41  Because you're flying literally to meet me in Denver, and we go on a winter tour. Lesley Logan 9:44  And also, I can't live in any of these places. I have to come home.Brad Crowell 9:50  Let's roll straight into the charity of the week. September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, and we're very, very excited to talk about AFSP or the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. It is the nation's leading suicide prevention organization, founded in 1987, and now working through 73 chapters in all 50 states, D.C. and Puerto Rico. The AFSP funds research into what actually prevents suicide, trains clinicians and everyday people to recognize warning signs, supports survivors of loss, and it pushes for policy change, most of it funded not by big checks, but by hundreds of 1000s of small donors, just like you and I, showing up during their Out of the Darkness community walks nationwide. So they do an event, Out of the Darkness community walks, and that's what helps raise money. So it's about as trustworthy of a charity as it gets. They get a four-star exceptional rating from the Charity Navigator. Over 80% of every dollar going straight to their programs, and they have a top-rated distinction from Charity Watch, which is the toughest watchdog in the space. The AFSP also recently announced plans to merge with the Jed Foundation, becoming the country's largest suicide prevention organization, spanning every age group, so any donation is landing at a moment when their reach is about to grow. Suicide has touched your life or someone you love, and statistically, for a lot of our listeners, it has. Yeah, this is a place where showing up really helps. Find more, find out about your local chapter by going to afsp.org, afsp.org, and you can actually, in the United States, there is a suicide crisis lifeline. Instead of 911, it's 988, so you can call or text 988 for free, it's confidential, and it's 24/7. Yeah, so I didn't actually know about 988. I knew that there were prevention phone numbers you could call, but I didn't realize that it was as easy as that.Lesley Logan 11:39  It's important because we all have, we all have hard times. Mental health is a is something that should not be a privileged thing that some insurance companies cover. And then if you don't have that, you don't have that. We all are, no one is immune. And we had a dear friend who actually used to work for the Nevada chapter of the AFSP, AFSP, and I got to see the work that she did for two years, and it's really quite incredible what they're doing just to support people. And I can't think of, like, if you're needing community, what you can go be community for people who need it, and you'd be surprised how that can help. But if you need their help, definitely reach out or go to 988 because this is real shit, you know. So, anyways, what else, Brad? Oh, you guys can send in the charities you want us to shout out?Brad Crowell 12:21  Yeah, text us 310-905-5534. Yeah, stick around. We're gonna dig into this convo with Dr. Amy Loden. Brad Crowell 12:30  Welcome back. Let's talk about Amy Loden. Dr. Amy Loden, based in St. Louis, Missouri, nearly died from severe preeclampsia with heart failure during a high-risk twin pregnancy, an experience that exposed major gaps in conventional care and reshaped how she practices medicine. She's a physician, entrepreneur, and the founder of Vitality MWC, a practice focused on women's metabolic and hormonal health, guiding patients through postpartum recovery, perimenopause, and long-term hormonal balance. She's a TEDx speaker, and she also is the author of the Postpartum Pivot. I will have the link for her book in the show notes below.Lesley Logan 13:09  Important. If you had a baby, you need the book, and it's not, oh, I've had a baby 15 years ago. I think you need the book still. I think it's about all health stuff that happens if you've had babies.Brad Crowell 13:18  Yeah, and what a revealing conversation, you know, with her about what it does to what being pregnant and going through that does to the body and how it reveals things. I thought it was really interesting. So yeah. Anyway, what's one of the things you love that she said?Lesley Logan 13:34  Oh my God, there's so many good stuff. We talked. I mean, we talked about. You've also.Brad Crowell 13:37  Just blended two conversations. So.Lesley Logan 13:39  I'm gonna work on not doing that. We're gonna work on. I'm gonna. Well, I mean, you had.Brad Crowell 13:43  One yesterday. Forget.Lesley Logan 13:44  The one I had yesterday. So we talked about perimenopause, and it's very interesting because I think the way she talked about us in the past, people have treated perimenopause like yes or no. I don't have this thing. I have this thing. No, I don't have that thing. But actually, the symptoms are a sliding scale for every woman, and we all have to figure out where we are on the spectrum, which means we just have to be paying attention to our bodies, which is not easy to you when you're really busy and you've got a lot going on. But so she also said, you know, you are going to have those unpredictable ups and downs. There are going to be some months where your ovaries are working like fire, and you're just like, I'm amazing. There's other months where you just feel like you got run over by a truck. And I think it's really nice to have a doctor who's a female who says that because usually they're, oh, well, you don't have it that bad or we can give you these drugs to cover up those symptoms, but really she's talking aboutBrad Crowell 14:28  Or she said her own experience was, okay, you're within the numbers, see you next time, and that's it.Lesley Logan 14:34  Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, and also it's like, okay, well, you're within the numbers, but are those the best numbers for you, you know? And so really filling out, you have to figure out where you are. You, my listener, have to figure out where you are, because that will help you advocate for what you need. And it's really important. I'm really grateful for the doctors that I've had because they can. They have said you are within range, but it's not optimal for you. So they were able to give me support so that I could be optimal for me, and I like how she, you know, perimenopause is like reverse adolescence, and it's like this, you know, you're when you're a young girl, you're going through all the puberty, and you have all the hormonal fluctuations, roller coaster rides, and all of a sudden, hopefully, hopefully you have some. I don't know, that wasn't my experience with periods, but like you have this nice, enjoyable couple decades, and then you reverse back. Yeah, it's like a.Brad Crowell 15:20  Reverse hormone, reverse puberty, reverse puberty. I was like, the word is there somewhere. Yeah.Lesley Logan 15:25  And somebody said, somebody said, who is the asshole who let mothers go through perimenopause when their daughters are going through puberty? And it's like, yeah, but remember, people used to have kids at 16, so that wasn't happening. Actually, but it's here's the thing: if you actually are really into perimenopause and loving women, if you do some historical work on what women's roles were, and I'm not talking about like the assholes or like what the grandma's roles, I'm not talking about that because I'm not a grandma. But the women who get after perimenopause, they became these healers and these doulas for the women who were having the babies and coming up, and they're also the ones that held the history and the stories, and so if we can think of it like that, it kind of makes us feel like we're going into our queendom, you know, like we're going in something cool. So she said, and in case you don't know this, it can run anywhere from 10 to 15 years for you actually go through menopause. And Brad's eyes just lit up, and just and then we've said on the podcast before, but menopause is one day.Brad Crowell 16:21  I was gonna say that. Yeah.Lesley Logan 16:22  It's one day, and then you're like post-menopause.Brad Crowell 16:26  And then.Lesley Logan 16:27  You're on the other side.Brad Crowell 16:28  You're on the other side.Lesley Logan 16:28  Yeah, and then and then if you're lucky, you get two years before you have the shittiest heart like men do. So like it's really fucking awful thing. So ladies, you want to keep your hormones going real well for a long, long time because it doesn't get easier.Brad Crowell 16:44  Yeah, she also did mention HRTs. She kind of didn't actually explicitly say that, but she mentioned that all the hormonal research that had been done in the early 2000s, a lot of that has been disproven and also challenged. And there's a lot more information about it now. So, you know, if you have an assumption that you about that that kind of stuff that you've had with you for a long time, I would recommend it's worth revisiting.Lesley Logan 17:08  I would agree with her. I know I've had women challenge me on this who've had family members with experience of breast cancer, and I understand their experience. But I am someone who has double the risk, and my breast doctor is not opposed to me being on HRT, and my gynecologist is not opposed to being on HRT. I'm not currently on estrogen either. I'm only on two of them, but they're not even opposed to me doing that because the risks of me having heart problems are greater, and I'm on a serious watch. So she.Brad Crowell 17:36  Did also mention that it's not for everybody. It can't be for everyone. Lesley Logan 17:39  No, nothing can be for everybody.Brad Crowell 17:40  Right. Right. So it's something for you to have that conversation with your healthcare provider.Lesley Logan 17:44  But I will also, before we move on, I want to just want to say, if you are worried about the breast cancer risks, there are ways to get tested multiple times a year. So I'm on an every-six-month test schedule, and so I still have decisions I probably want to think about, but also, I'm pretty sure they're going to catch it early because I'm going every six months. So it is a personal decision you must make, but please don't make it out of fear from people saying shit to you on the internet. Talk with your doctors.Brad Crowell 18:15  Yeah, yeah. One thing that I found really interesting about what she was talking about was the way that being pregnant and then going through the process of having a child or giving birth, she said, what it does is it actually unveils what was already there, right? So for her case, giving birth was a stress test on her body, and that it revealed what already was in her body. Yeah, you know, genetically probably.Lesley Logan 18:40  Wasn't coming up on any tests because it was probably in range. Yeah, we've had family members with this, and it makes me go and go, "Oh my God, we need to text them right now." Because there's things you can do when you're younger to take care of stuff that's harder to reverse when you're older.Brad Crowell 18:53  Yeah, sure. But she said that, you know, giving birth is a stress test of a woman's metabolism and cardiovascular system. She explained that culturally we view pregnancy and complications as something that where the answer is into the pregnancy and then it's gone. It happened during the pregnancy only and then afterwards they're all better.Lesley Logan 19:13  Right?Brad Crowell 19:13  Everything's good. It's gone.Lesley Logan 19:14  But it's not gone. The underlying condition still there.Brad Crowell 19:17  Yeah, exactly. She's saying that conditions such as the one she experienced, preeclampsia, it reveals underlying inflammation or insulin resistance that was a previous, you know, something her body was dealing with before. It just all of a sudden was stressed, and that's where something got stuck, right? So she said those conditions are not done after you've given birth. It's just simply something that's been unmasked by the physical toll of pregnancy, and once it's been unmasked, now you can treat it, and it's important to continue to treat it. And I think that's also why Lesley was suggesting at the beginning of the episode that her book is still valuable, even if you've had a child, you know, 15 years ago, because, you know, maybe maybe you did have something that went on. And you haven't looked at it as something that still exists in your body today that you will, you know, hopefully won't have to deal with, but you might have to deal with it as you age.Lesley Logan 20:08  Well, you have to listen to the episode because I have to listen to the episode because, my loves, women's heart conditions, the number one symptom for a woman having a heart problem is sudden death.Brad Crowell 20:20  Sudden death.Lesley Logan 20:21  Sudden death. I like. I think I like peeked the mic when I heard that. Brad Crowell 20:26  Yeah, I heard. I heard you in in my office. What?Lesley Logan 20:29  Yeah, yeah. So and I share that with you because unfortunately there still isn't enough information about women's bodies. A lot of information is still based off of men's bodies, and so tests and studies I've done on men only in the last decade-ish have they said you have to study these things on women, right? But we don't really know a lot of information that we should know by now. There should be information on that, and so why I'm like so insistent on you knowing this information is that when you're younger there are things that might look like they're in range, but if stressed, your body can't handle it. Now, stress is not a bad thing because you can also stress a body, and like your body responds the way it's supposed to.Brad Crowell 21:11  It gets stronger, and it.Lesley Logan 21:12  Gets stronger. Sure, but not every body does that because of genetics, because of too much stress, because of the fuel you're having with the sleep, where you are with your hormones. Did you have those things? And so it's just so important that we advocate for ourselves, my loves. Because, and I know, I know insurance is shit. Still got to do it.Brad Crowell 21:31  Yeah, got to do it. Well, stick around. We'll be right back. We're gonna dig into these be it action items we have with Dr. Amy. Finally, let's talk about those. Be it action items, what bold, executable, intrinsic, or targeted action items can we take away from your conversation with Dr. Amy Logan? She advises women to specifically pay attention to whether their vasomotor systems, hot flashes, night flashes, night sweats—sorry—are happening most days of the week or more than 10 times a day. If you hit that threshold and you choose not to take hormones, she warns you actually have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease or a stroke. Now, obviously, she's not your doctor, right, or our doctor, and she's not. This is like something for you to be aware of to take back to your doctor. But effectively, that's, you know, when she's talking with her patients. That's her barometer. That's her measuring stick. Lesley Logan 22:23  Can you imagine 10 hot flashes?Brad Crowell 22:26  I cannot.Lesley Logan 22:27  Because I don't even have them. But I can't even imagine. I saw that woman on Instagram where you could like see the hot flash, the one that went around. She had 10 of those a day. You have to take a shower. I don't even how you. I don't even know how you do it.Brad Crowell 22:38  Yeah. So while it's not a blanket prescription, she says, and not every woman in the category can or should take hormones. She said it's important for you to understand that that, you know, if you're hitting a point like that, you definitely want to seek professional help to get a medical assessment so that you can make a really informed decision about your health for your future. She urges this listeners not to base decisions on outdated fears. The hormones that we take today are different and safer than what was in the Women's Health Initiative that came out in the early 2000s. So, what about you?Lesley Logan 23:11  She said, "Be true to what your body is telling you." And I think this is really key because I think a lot of times we brush off or push things off or think we ate something bad that one time, or blah blah blah. But really, your body is talking to you, and it doesn't have to. We don't want to wait till it's in crisis, and then we don't want to go, "Oh my god, everything is wrong." We actually, if we were, if we're really paying attention to ourselves, we can start to spot patterns because the doctor cannot be with you every single day, so they are not going to spot the pattern. But you can bring them the pattern, and you are paying attention to yourself. You can do that, and so if you are struggling, you're doing all the things to sleep, and you're not sleeping. That is something you have to tell because your body is telling you, "I don't have the hormones and the things to sleep, which then all of a sudden everything is going to start to shut down in a terrible way when that happens. So make sure you're listening to your body, and you'll become more wise, and you'll even become a better version of yourself. And I thought, what better way to be it till we see it, but to listen to our body? Because it's kind of hard to become the version of yourself you want to be if you're not listening to the version of yourself that you are.Brad Crowell 24:12  That's true.Lesley Logan 24:13  Anyways, I'm telling you guys, my mind is blown and.Brad Crowell 24:16  We already had her back for another episode, so that's going to come out in the near future. Here, what was that topic about?Lesley Logan 24:22  It's a nuanced conversation about metabolism, and it's specifically for people who are in more of an insulin resistance. So it's not, it's going to sound like it's a weight loss conversation. We are not advocating that everyone needs to lose weight, but there's. Brad Crowell 24:35  She was talking about how movement is involved.Lesley Logan 24:37  Yes, right.Brad Crowell 24:38  And then movement. How soon after you've eaten should you be moving, and what kind of movement, and then also how often should you be eating?Lesley Logan 24:46  Yes, and all of that depends on your health.Brad Crowell 24:48  Yeah.Lesley Logan 24:48  Right. And your health is any different. The conversation is not about this weight is the healthy weight. It's not that at all, but that weight is one metric in the biometrics, and so we go into if you have this measurement off, what could also be affecting in the other biometrics, and then how do we address that? Because it's all part of the same wheel, right? When we ended the conversation, it's a very difficult conversation because I don't want anyone to be like, "This is for me," or "This is not for me," or "I don't. I can be healthy in sights, of course, and we have to go off of your blood tests and then your weight and your blood tests, and so it's this really interesting thing, and I really appreciate it because there is information. If you don't have any of these problems, you get to do your thing and have fun until hopefully forever. But if you are struggling with certain biometrics in your blood work and your weight is off, then it's not about losing weight, like every doctor tells you. It's about doing these things that she talks about to help you get your metrics to be where they need to be, and then the weight may or may not change, but the metrics will be better. Anyways, it's so good. I'm so excited about it. It's really great. So stay tuned. But until then, make sure that you send this to a woman in your life who needs to hear it because there's some epic medical information that no one has told me shocked the hell out of me. And then you can also reach out to Dr. Amy Loden if you would like to talk with her. If you live in the United States, so share with her what your takeaways were. All right.

After twenty five years as a traditional orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Elizabeth Yurth walked away from a specialty she says patches the body instead of heals it. This was a shift that eventually led her to found the Boulder Longevity Institute. In this conversation, she explains why a common knee surgery called arthroscopic debridement has been abandoned in most countries, and why cheap, decades-old lab values like creatinine and ALT are routinely misread by doctors who are misinformed on these measures. She also makes the case for treating peptides the same way we treat hormones: as naturally occurring compounds the body simply stops producing with age, not a bodybuilding shortcut or a biohacking fad. Dr. Yurth leaves listeners with a clearer, more skeptical eye for what is being marketed to them, and a working definition of healthy aging that shifts the focus from simply a lab report.Join Us at the 2026 Super Age Games!

Apostle Kathryn Krick sits down with Joshua to share the story behind one of the most shocking deliverances she has ever witnessed. Joshua thought he was doing everything right. But at the Ignite Conference on May 23, 2026, God opened his eyes and set him free from religious pride, judgment, condemnation, the crippling fear he dealt with, his inability to sleep peacefully and his resistance to what God was doing. What happened next completely changed his life. This is a powerful Saul-to-Paul transformation and a powerful reminder for the Body of Christ to walk in humility, love, and unity.

Sin does more than produce wrong behavior. It distorts perception. Recording from Old Town Lublin, Poland, Nancy examines the sobering progression from deception to diminished sensitivity and spiritual hardening. Hebrews 3:13 warns that the deceitfulness of sin can harden the heart into settled rebellion. The danger is not only that we choose what is wrong, but that repeated agreement with sin can make us increasingly unable to see what is happening within us. Nancy also explores why Scripture commands believers to exhort one another daily—and why the Body of Christ is essential when self-deception has made honest inward discernment difficult. The most dangerous deception is the deception we cannot recognize in ourselves. But God does not uncover the heart to humiliate His sons. He brings what is hidden into the light so that truth can recover the inward man, soften what has become resistant, and restore responsiveness to His voice. This episode lays the foundation for Part 2, where the hidden things of the heart are made manifest and the undeniable presence of God brings a person to worship.

What does it mean to become better—and better for what?In this episode of the Faithful Fitness Podcast, Coach Alex Van Houten sits down with builder, entrepreneur, and fitness advocate Brock Holyoak for a conversation about action, discipline, fear, fitness, personal responsibility, and becoming more capable.Brock has a strong bias toward action: stop waiting until you know everything, start with what you have, learn by doing, and allow experience to shape you along the way. From building construction companies to training his body and developing his own fitness philosophy, his message is simple: most people already know enough to begin. The problem is that they often substitute consuming information for taking action.That creates some valuable questions for anyone who has spent too much time researching the perfect workout, diet, business strategy, or next step while doing very little with what they already know.But this conversation also exposes a deeper question at the heart of Faithful Fitness:What is all that improvement for?Strength is useful. Discipline is useful. Confidence is useful. Competence is useful. Becoming capable of doing difficult things is good.But none of those things can determine what deserves our devotion.Throughout the episode, Alex and Brock discuss:Why action often teaches what information cannotThe danger of waiting until you have every piece before you start buildingHow fitness can build competence and confidenceThe difference between perseverance and stubbornnessWhy fear often becomes smaller once you actually confront itThe importance of keeping promises to yourselfHow difficult physical challenges can expand your sense of what you're capable ofWhy passion and desire can create tremendous driveThe limitations of making “the best version of yourself” the ultimate goalFor the Christian, self-improvement is not the destination. It is a tool.Your body, health, strength, time, abilities, and opportunities have been entrusted to you by God. The goal isn't merely to become stronger, tougher, leaner, richer, or more impressive. The goal is to become increasingly capable of faithfully using what God has given you for His glory and the good of the people around you.So perhaps the question isn't simply:Am I getting better?Perhaps the better question is:Am I becoming more faithful?If you already know the next healthy step you need to take, take it. Go for the walk. Lift the weight. Prepare the meal. Get to bed. Make the change.You probably don't need the whole map before you begin.But as you become more capable, keep asking where that capability is ultimately pointed.Want to understand where you currently stand in your own health and stewardship?Take the Faithful Fitness Assessment and evaluate yourself across the four foundations of Integrity, Grit, Growth, and Awe.Start here: https://faithfulfitness.co/assessmentMake the most of the body God's given you.Train hard—but pray harder.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/faithful-fitness-with-coach-alex-vanhouten--5150768/support.

What if your body knows what you want before your mind can explain it? Artist, photographer, movement teacher, and Permission Project creator Elizabeth “Liz” Janowski joins Elaine to explore why authentic inner knowing often begins below the neck—and how freeform movement can help you hear it.Liz shares how motherhood led her back into her body, why desire is a life-giving force, and how years of social conditioning can make women override their own yeses and nos. You'll discover simple ways to slow down, notice sensation, use touch and music intentionally, and create enough inner safety to recognize what feels true for you.This conversation invites you to stop outsourcing your knowing, treat your body as a trusted partner, and reconnect with the clarity, coherence, pleasure, and self-trust that become available when mind, body, and spirit are aligned.Topics Covered (with timestamps)0:00 What if your body already knows the answers you're searching for?3:55 Three conscious breaths, the episode Intention, and noticing Divine signals in the body7:35 Why freeform movement is not about learning dance moves—it's about authentic expression9:07 “The body knows first”: desire, social conditioning, and learning what you actually want10:24 How motherhood led Liz to movement and the creation of the Permission Project13:00 Using the body as a receiver for intuition, inner knowing, and “warmer/colder” guidance15:34 Liz's definition of abundance: alignment and coherence of mind, body, and spirit18:55 The body stories women carry—and how pleasing others can drown out your authentic response21:01 Why safety, slowness, and embodiment can expand the story you hold about yourself24:31 Coming home to the body in a screen-driven world—and expressing your unique yes26:16 Touch, self-validation, and creating the feeling you want from within28:56 Two simple practices to hear your body: sensory pleasure and making space to feel32:34 How listening to your body can reduce reactivity and reveal what is really happening33:39 Liz's music-compilation gift for dropping into your body and clarifying desire37:04 A final reminder: give yourself grace, listen a little more, and bring your body to the partyKey Takeaways (Skimmable Wins)Your body may register a true yes or no before your thinking mind has words for it.Desire is not something to suppress; it can be a life-giving signal that helps you recognize what is aligned for you.Freeform movement creates a way to express emotions and experiences that may be difficult to reach through thought alone.Self-trust grows when you create enough safety and quiet to notice sensation instead of automatically responding to other people's needs and expectations.Small sensory choices—comfortable fabric, warm water, affectionate touch, music, rest—can help you rebuild an intimate relationship with your own preferences.Abundance can be experienced as coherence: mind, body, and spirit arriving at the same wholehearted yes.Step-by-Step Process SharedCome Home to Your BodyCreate signals of safety → slow down, get comfortable, reduce expectations, and give yourself space to feel.Notice what feels good → pay attention to texture, temperature, taste, touch, music, beauty, and other sensory cues.Let yourself feel what is present → rather than immediately managing or overriding emotion, give it room to move through you.Listen for the yes and the no → notice what expands, contracts, excites, settles, or feels distinctly “not for me.”Express what you discover → move, reach out, ask for affection, have the conversation, or make a choice that honors your authentic response.Listen to the episode for Liz's lived examples and Elaine's reflections on using the body as a receiver for inner guidance.Questions Answered in This EpisodeHow can I tell what my body is trying to communicate before my mind talks me out of it?Why do so many women lose touch with what they genuinely want?How can freeform movement help emotions and inner knowing become easier to access?What does abundance feel like when mind, body, and spirit are aligned?What are simple ways to begin rebuilding trust, pleasure, and connection with my body today?Pull Quotes“I actually think the body knows first.” — Liz Janowski“Abundance is being in alignment with your mind, your body, and your spirit all in one place.” — Liz Janowski“Just to remember that you have a body is already a success in itself.” — Liz JanowskiFree GiftShare what you Loved and what you Learned from this episode to Download the Spiritual Alignment & Conscious Actions Guide — your roadmap to reconnect with The Divine, raise your vibration, and live as the woman your soul designed you to be.TheAbundanceJourney.com/Contact — click the Share My Thoughts button and complete the Google form to automatically receive your free gift.Guest GiftLiz shares a series of short music compilations designed to help you drop into your body, listen more deeply, and begin moving with your desires.

What can you actually learn about your body in five days? I'm currently doing a simple five-day metabolic protocol alongside nearly 100 women, and in this episode I'm sharing what I'm noticing by Day 3 - including a two-pound scale drop, less bloating, better digestion, improved satiety, and the places where I have definitely not followed the plan perfectly. But this episode isn't really about my results, and it's not only for the women doing the protocol. We're talking about what your hunger, energy, digestion, hydration, sleep, cravings, and even your struggles can tell you about what your body may need next.

Mast Cell Activation Syndrome can affect nearly every system in the body—and its symptoms are often dismissed, misdiagnosed, or mistaken for anxiety. In this deeply personal conversation, Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh sit down with integrative and functional registered dietitian Michelle Shapiro, RD, to unpack MCAS, histamine intolerance, and the experience of living in a “highly sensitive body.” Michelle shares how rapid weight loss, nutrient depletion, mold exposure, long COVID, and an injury left her increasingly ill and eventually bedbound. She explains why common wellness protocols can make highly sensitive patients worse, how mast cells interact with the nervous, vascular, immune, and connective-tissue systems, and why meaningful care must be personalized—not pulled from a one-size-fits-all protocol. May also opens up about her own MCAS journey, including years of unexplained symptoms, hormonal and genetic factors, severe post-COVID illness, and the trial-and-error process that finally helped her connect the dots. In This Episode Michelle's path from rapid weight loss and chronic panic symptoms to functional nutrition and MCAS advocacy What mast cells do—and why MCAS can create symptoms across multiple body systems Why flushing, itching, reflux, dizziness, insomnia, migraines, palpitations, anxiety-like episodes, and food reactions may seem unrelated The difference between ordinary allergy symptoms, histamine intolerance, and a broader mast-cell activation pattern Why MCAS can be difficult to diagnose and why laboratory testing may not capture an active flare How nervous-system dysregulation, blood-flow changes, connective tissue, immune activation, trauma, stress, and hormones can interact The overlap among MCAS, POTS, hypermobility, and long COVID Why aggressive detoxes, IV therapies, restrictive diets, or popular supplements may backfire in highly sensitive bodies The role of antihistamines, mast-cell stabilizers, DAO support, food freshness, and individualized risk-benefit decisions Why every medication and supplement should “fight for its life” before earning a place in a care plan How validation, pattern recognition, and a slower, personalized approach can help interrupt the symptom snowball About Michelle Shapiro, RD Michelle Shapiro is an Integrative and Functional Registered Dietitian and founder of Michelle Shapiro Nutrition LLC. Her practice specializes in supporting people with complex chronic conditions, including MCAS, POTS, histamine intolerance, Long COVID, autoimmune conditions, and gastrointestinal issues. After experiencing her own health challenges with Long COVID, MCAS, POTS, and thyroid issues, Michelle brought that firsthand perspective into her work helping patients better understand complex and highly sensitive bodies. Michelle is also the host of the Quiet the Diet podcast and creator of the Highly Sensitive Body™ Hub, a resource dedicated to MCAS, POTS, hypermobility, and Long COVID.

What if your body is conveying important information that you need to heal, long before your conscious mind has figured it out?When you're facing serious illness, everyone seems to have an opinion about what you should do. Doctors, family members, books, podcasts, online communities, and other survivors may offer completely different advice, and sometimes the approaches that helped one person seem to directly contradict those that helped another.So how do you determine what is right for you?In this episode of Renegade Remission, we explore the science of intuition, the gut-brain connection, and why learning to recognize your body's signals may help you navigate complicated decisions with greater clarity and confidence.You'll discover:Why a “gut feeling” may involve real physiological signals rather than being merely a figure of speechHow the nervous system and gut communicate—and why the digestive tract is sometimes referred to as a “second brain”What researchers discovered when people's bodies began responding to risky choices before their conscious minds recognized the dangerWhy intuition can become particularly useful when a decision contains too many variables for conscious analysis to easily processWhy conflicting healing stories don't necessarily mean someone is wrong—they may remind us that individual bodies and circumstances differFive practical steps for becoming better at recognizing your own intuitive signalsMost importantly, you'll learn a simple practice you can begin using today to begin testing your intuition with small, low-risk decisions.Listen now to learn how to recognize what your body may be trying to tell you—and strengthen your ability to hear it when you need guidance most.Join my free email community for practical healing tools, research, survivor stories, and encouragement between episodes: https://TheRenegadeNutritionist.comDisclaimerThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

In today's episode, Anietie Tia Ukpe-Wallace, a pelvic health physical therapist and author of Tending to Your Womb, shares how relocating from Northern California to Lisbon, Portugal will shape her continued work virtually and internationally. She recounts chronic infections and pelvic pain that led her to pelvic health, then details her first pregnancy in 2011 complicated by fibroids and ending in a 20-week loss, followed by a second loss six months later. She explains how grief can manifest physically through posture, breathing, reduced movement, nervous system effects, and pelvic floor tension, and defines pelvic floor therapy's functions and common symptoms. Wallace describes how pelvic therapy after loss may begin with external work (breath, abdominal touch/massage, education) before any internal exam, emphasizes finding therapists comfortable with loss, and discusses surgery, therapy, and practices that supported her later pregnancy and ongoing anxiety. She highlights body literacy as a core takeaway from her book and shares where to buy it and how to connect with her and her retreats.   Key Takeaway: Body Literacy The core mission of her book, Tending to Your Womb, is to cultivate body literacy—empowering individuals to deeply understand, listen to, and advocate for their own reproductive and pelvic health.

Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. A planned drug arrest in Mississippi suddenly erupted into a deadly ambush. Gunfire rained down from a sniper positioned on a hill. One police officer was struck three times and barely survived. An armed drug dealer was also shot. For Merle Temple and his fellow narcotics officers, it became a brutal reminder of the risk and danger they faced during America's first war on drugs. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. It was the late 1970s, a time before the bulletproof vest became standard equipment in police work. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Temple, a former captain with the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics, shares his remarkable story on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. His experiences later inspired multiple novels filled with crime, corruption, faith, betrayal, and survival. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio A Drug Arrest Turned Into a Sniper Ambush Temple and his team were preparing for a buy-bust operation targeting suspected drug dealers. They knew the arrest would be dangerous, but they had no idea that the suspects had allegedly positioned a sniper above them. Just before leaving for the operation, Temple experienced an overwhelming feeling that he needed to turn around. “God scared me to death,” Temple said. “He commanded me to go back and get the bulletproof vests.” Temple initially resisted the warning. Body armor was not commonly worn by police officers in 1976, and his unit had only two vests available. Still, he returned and retrieved them. That decision may have saved lives. “They let it get away from them,” Temple recalled about the attempted arrest. “The drug dealers had a sniper with a rifle up on a hill, and he rained fire down on us. It was a terrible day.” The scene exploded into chaos. A police officer was shot three times and came close to death. A suspect was also struck by gunfire. The heavy protective vests Temple had gone back to retrieve suddenly became critically important. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, is available on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, and other major podcast platforms. The interview is also featured across Facebook and Instagram. It was a real-life Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper story, one that revealed the extraordinary dangers faced by early narcotics officers. Before Bulletproof Vests Became Standard Police Equipment Modern officers routinely recognize the importance of body armor, but police equipment was much different during the 1970s. Temple's unit had only two protective vests, and wearing one was far from commonplace. Narcotics agents frequently worked alone, without the tactical teams, communications technology, surveillance equipment, and immediate backup available to many officers today. “In those days, the unit was small,” Temple said. “There really wasn't any backup, you were on your own.” That isolation increased the risk of every undercover meeting, drug purchase, vehicle stop, and arrest. Agents could find themselves surrounded by armed suspects miles away from help. Temple repeatedly faced that reality during his career. From FBI Fingerprint Technician to Undercover Drug Agent Before entering narcotics enforcement, Temple worked as a fingerprint technician for the FBI. He later served as a deputy sheriff and became one of Mississippi's earliest designated narcotics officers. Temple attended Ole Miss and finished school around the time President Richard Nixon was launching the national “war on drugs.” He joined the newly formed Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics and spent much of his career working undercover. “It was exciting,” he said. “I didn't know what I was getting into.” Temple eventually became an area commander and captain with the agency. His assignments placed him inside a violent criminal world where exposure could mean kidnapping, torture, or death. A 1989 profile in The Augusta Chronicle reported that Temple had been held hostage by two suspects while working undercover. It also described his survival of a sniper ambush carried out by cocaine dealers. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. His life often seemed more unbelievable than anything an author could invent. A Gun to His Head and a Shotgun Against His Stomach One of Temple's most terrifying undercover encounters occurred near Tylertown, Mississippi. While posing as part of the drug world, he allowed two suspected dealers to get into his vehicle. They directed him into a remote area and eventually took him to a small shack built on stilts. There, his cover, and his life, were placed in immediate danger. One man reportedly pressed a pistol against Temple's head. The other held a shotgun against his stomach. “Images of my life really did flash past my mind,” Temple said. He knew he could be killed at any moment. There was no nearby team waiting to rescue him and no guarantee that anyone would find him if he disappeared. Temple later acknowledged that youth sometimes made him feel invulnerable. He took chances and made mistakes that, by his own admission, he should not have survived. Drug Dealers Allegedly Planned Where to Bury Him The threats against Temple did not end with undercover operations. According to Temple, drug dealers once discussed where they would bury his body after hired killers were supposed to murder him. His career exposed him to criminals who were willing to do far more than threaten an officer to protect their operations. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. Yet Temple continued his work. “Work was a crusade in those days,” he said. That crusade eventually collided with another powerful force: politics. Temple said corrupt political figures attempted to weaken the narcotics agency and install their own person inside the organization. The controversy was leaked to the Clarion-Ledger and became headline news. He also claimed that witness tampering occurred and that political figures were searching for a way to frame him. “It was politics that caused me to leave,” Temple said. “There were some corrupt politicians who wanted to clip our wings.” When Truth Became the Foundation for Fiction After leaving law enforcement, Temple transformed his experiences into the Michael Parker book series. Although the novels are presented as fiction, they draw heavily from Temple's career as a deputy sheriff, undercover agent, narcotics captain, corporate manager, political campaign chairman, and Christian ministry founder. Merle Temple is the author of: Deputy: Once Upon a Time in Mississippi Blood on the Ground A Ghostly Shade of Pale A Rented World The Redeemed: A Leap of Faith Resurrection: Home Before Dark The stories explore violent crime, political corruption, moral conflict, redemption, and the intersection of government, business, and organized criminal activity. Some of Temple's real experiences were reportedly so shocking that a district attorney told him audiences would consider them too unbelievable for a movie. Temple's response was simple: they actually happened. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. His life gives new meaning to the expression, “Truth is stranger than fiction.” “A Ghostly Shade of Pale” and the Michael Parker Series Among Temple's most recognized works is the book A Ghostly Shade of Pale. According to Temple's biography, it became the all-time bestselling novel at the Barnes & Noble store in Tupelo, Mississippi. His books have been used in middle school, high school, and college classrooms. They have also reached readers in church libraries, shelters, and prisons across numerous states. Temple signed books for members of the casts of Criminal Minds and Major Crimes in Hollywood. His work was also optioned for a proposed television series based on his extraordinary life. His story extends far beyond undercover police work. Temple founded a highly successful Christian ministry inside the Federal Bureau of Prisons. He served as Mississippi's state criminal justice chairman for Ronald Reagan and later became Georgia chairman of the Reagan Legacy Project. The Officer, Author, and Survivor Behind the Story Merle Temple's journey is filled with moments that sound as though they were created for a crime thriller: undercover drug buys, hostage situations, assassination plots, sniper fire, political corruption, and unexpected acts of faith. But behind those stories was a real officer confronting real danger. The sniper ambush remains one of the most powerful chapters of his life. His last-minute decision to retrieve two bulletproof vests demonstrated how one choice can separate survival from tragedy. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Blogspot and Linkedin. The officer struck three times survived, but the attack exposed the enormous risk Temple and his team faced while confronting armed drug organizations with limited manpower and equipment.

“STEWARD: What Does It Actually Mean to Steward Your Body?” podcast, I'd use:STEWARD: What Does It Actually Mean to Steward Your Body?Your body was never meant to be worshiped—but it wasn't meant to be neglected either.In this episode, we're digging into what it actually means to steward the body God has entrusted to you.Stewardship changes the conversation from:“How can I make my body look better?”to“How can I faithfully care for what belongs to God?”We're talking about the difference between stewardship and obsession, why discipline and grace are not enemies, how our health habits can become an act of worship, and why caring for your body is about so much more than shrinking it.I'm also sharing what this looks like practically through Laced With Grace, our September STEWARD workout theme, and the upcoming STEWARDED: Laced With Grace Nutrition Academy—where we're going even deeper into nutrition, food, discipline, identity, and learning to approach health through the lens of the Gospel. 1 Corinthians 6:19–20You don't own the body you're living in.It was entrusted to you.The question is: How are you stewarding it?Here is the link to join my free laced with grace community!

You're not out of shape. You're out of order. You've built something great. The career. Family. Reputation. By every measure that matters, you're winning. But something's off in your body and you know it. The energy isn't what it was. The weight isn't moving like it used to. You've tried the diets. You've pushed through the programs. And every time you go all in, life happens…and then you're back to square one. Here's what I wish someone told me in this season: it's not your body that's broken. It's your lifestyle. And there's a massive difference. In this episode of Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™, J.R. sits down with nutrition and fitness expert Ben Brown. Ben's the owner of Body Systems and a coach with over two decades of experience working with executives, entrepreneurs, and elite athletes. This is a raw, practical, and eye-opening conversation about what it actually takes to perform at your best when life is running at full speed. In this episode, you'll hear: Why fat loss and muscle gain after 40 isn't a physiology problem (and what it is instead) How to stop the all-or-nothing cycle that's keeping high-capacity men stuck in yo-yo health patterns Why "living in the gray" isn't a sign of weakness (and how values-driven decision making is the real key to sustainable physical performance) The truth about GLP drugs and peptides that no one with a financial stake in them will tell you The 85% weight regain stat that should make every driven man think twice Why your annual bloodwork saying "you're normal" doesn't mean you're healthy (and what optimal actually looks like for a high-performing man over 40) Why the most successful people don't rely on more discipline and self-control (and the simple mindset shift that makes the right choice the easy choice) KEY QUOTES "What's our non-negotiable baseline, right? What are the things that we're doing day in and day out, regardless of the circumstances." - Ben Brown "The people that are most successful don't assert more self-control and discipline. They just put themselves in situations that require less self-control and discipline." - Ben Brown CONNECT WITH BEN 30-Day Reset: https://bodysystems.com/30-day-reset/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/benjamin.brown.146/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching X: https://x.com/BenBodySystems LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjaminbrownnutrition/ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@bodysystemscoaching NEXT STEPS Listen to the full episode: https://jamesreid.com/brown-cuc Want to bring your best home more consistently?

Send Vanessa a text or a voicemail!Dr. Perry Nickelston of Stop Chasing Pain returns to Intentionally Well for a deep conversation about what happens when the body begins adapting, compensating, and reorganizing around a problem.We explore the relationship between the lymphatic system and organ function, the often-overlooked role of the vestibular system and cranial nerves, the way posture can change over time, and how chronic sympathetic activation can shape the way the body moves, protects, and responds.Dr. Perry also breaks down why pain is often only one part of the story, and why focusing solely on the area that hurts can leave important pieces unexplored.In this episode, we discuss: Lymphatic flow and organ function  The vestibular system and posture  Cranial nerves and whole-body function  Chronic compensation  Sympathetic dominance and fight-or-flight  What years of altered posture can teach the nervous system  Connections between the feet, jaw, thoracic region, fascia and more  Why symptoms can show up far from the original driver  How to approach a complex body without making the healing process unnecessarily complicated If you're new to Dr. Perry's work, check out Episode 52: our original conversation on the lymphatic system and the Big 6 Reset You can also watch the standalone Big 6 Reset demonstration from our original conversation.

What does it really mean to care for one another as the body of Christ? The Bible gives us clear instructions, not only about what we should do but how we should do it. Bucky walks through the practical ways believers are called to care for one another—from encouraging the fainthearted and helping the weak to restoring those who have fallen and carrying one another's burdens. But caring for one another means more than offering temporary relief. It also means helping one another pursue spiritual health. How is your church doing at caring for the body? And where might you be missing the mark?#faithbasedpodcast #biblepodcast #biblicalteachingpodcast #biblestudypodcast

 Have you ever looked around at your life and thought: "This can't be it." Not because your life is bad. Not because you're ungrateful. But because somewhere deep inside, you know you're meant for more. More joy. More connection. More peace. More authenticity. More aliveness. Many women spend years settling for situations they've outgrown. Not because they don't know better, but because settling happens slowly. We adapt. We tolerate. We convince ourselves things are "fine" while quietly feeling disconnected from ourselves. In this episode of Cacao Conversations, we're exploring why we settle, what it costs us, and how to recognize the places in our lives where we've accepted less than what truly nourishes us. We talk about: the subtle ways we settle what we're tolerating that no longer fits why fear keeps us stuck comfort zones and hidden costs self-worth and self-trust the difference between gratitude and settling remembering what's possible choosing a life that feels aligned instead of merely acceptable Because the goal isn't perfection. The goal is a life that feels true. And sometimes the first step toward creating something new is being honest about what is no longer enough. New episodes of Cacao Conversations drop weekly. Sip.

Nothing in this episode is medical advice — get your own bloodwork and your own doctor.SummaryIs your body a discipleship issue? Chase sits down with Anthony Diehl — pro strongman turned metabolic health coach, founder of MODUS — and Matt Patrick, co-lead pastor at The Well and an operator in the health space, for a conversation that starts with testosterone and ends up in anthropology. The three of them work through the collapse in male T levels, what actually causes it, and the difference between deficiency, optimization, and enhancement. But the real question underneath is theological: what do we make of a faith that confesses the resurrection of the body and then treats the body as spiritually irrelevant? Anthony calls it latent Gnosticism, and he traces the biblical alternative — David's aching bones, Paul's bowels of mercy, a Scripture that assumes your physiology and your affections are not sealed off from one another. Along the way: whether Adam and Jesus had "optimal" T, what low testosterone does to a man's agency and appetite for sin, why the myth of roid rage is mostly a myth, how to tell a good clinic from a predatory one, the honest case against steroids from a man who used them, and where the line falls between a biological deficiency and plain old spiritual laziness. If you've ever suspected the split between body and soul was doing damage in your church, this one names it.Support the showSign up for the Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisFollow Full Proof Theology on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fullprooftheology/Follow Full Proof Theology on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fullprooftheology/

Most Christians talk about the body being a temple — and then don't think much about it after that. Derek Saltou does this for a living, and he's got some thoughts.Jason sits down with Derek (owner of Chiron Built Fitness) to talk about what physical discipline and spiritual discipline actually have in common, how fitness can quietly become an idol, and why the connection between caring for your body and caring for your soul is more direct than most people realize. They also get into the empathy trap, Paul's growth from Galatians to Timothy, and why "do whatever he tells you" might be the most underrated verse in the Bible.Questions or feedback?

What Happens to the Soul when It Departs from the Body? This is the second class in a series on the Maamar Yom Tov Shel Rosh Hashanah said by the Alter Rebbe for Rosh Hashanah 5571, September 29, 1810, which came out on Shabbos. This class was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Wednesday, 20 Elul, 5786, Sep. 2, 2026, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. The class delves deeper into the two states of consciousness, Igulim and Yosher. Where we are submerged in the source, like the photon in the sun, the stop in the ocean, and the fetus in the womb, to where we emerge as "something," and the source turns into "no-thing." We discuss why Moshe did not want to be a leader, and why so severe a penalty for expressing a halacha in front of your Rebbe.

Matthew 26:17-30 - - May 24, 2026

Are you constantly checking your body for symptoms or sick with worry? In this video, Janie Charlot, FNP-C, breaks down health anxiety and shares insights on how to overcome the fear of sickness. If Dr. Google has you panicking over every minor symptom, it's time to break the cycle of health obsession and reclaim your peace of mind.

You can feel it right away: I'm running on “couldn't sleep” energy, and we end up having one of those raw, wide-ranging morning talks that only happens when the chat is fully engaged. We start with the reality of being an active-duty police officer who also runs a public show. That means balancing honesty with the constraints of representing a profession where one bad clip can cost you your career. From there, we get into what “fair and balanced” actually looks like when the topic is policing, public trust, and the way the uniform changes how people see you.We dig deep into police accountability and oversight, including Internal Affairs and why IA can operate very differently in a small department versus a large agency. We talk about why “we investigated ourselves” became a punchline, what checks and balances can exist behind the scenes, and why healthy skepticism of government is always warranted. We also unpack the surge of YouTube demonetization hitting First Amendment auditor channels: the theories, the platform power dynamics, and why the free speech conversation gets complicated fast when money, pressure, and policy collide.Then we go practical: use of force and de-escalation, the danger of hesitation during an arrest, and what it really means when a suspect tightens up and stops complying. We also tackle ALPR license plate readers, Flock cameras, and real-time policing tech, including the privacy fears and the case for strict auditing as a way to catch misuse at scale. Body cameras, mute buttons, public records laws, and everyday “power flex” behaviors round out a conversation aimed at one goal: better policing through clearer standards and real accountability.Subscribe for more live breakdowns, share this with someone who argues about policing online, and leave a review with the one policy change you think would actually move the needle.

God designed us for communion—not only with Him, but with one another—and community is not an optional addition to the Christian life; it is part of who we are as the Body of Christ. Each of us has been uniquely created and carries something from God that is meant to encourage, strengthen, sharpen, and help meet the needs of others. Though authentic community requires intentionality, humility, patience, forgiveness, and perseverance, it is one of the ways God shapes us to look more like Jesus and teaches us to carry one another's burdens. We pray that as we move forward together, may our love for God be expressed through our love for people, creating a community that reflects His heart, His nature, and His presence.
