This episode will change how you think about gluten forever.If you've feared wheat…If you've struggled with bloating, fatigue, pain, constipation, diarrhea, brain fog, or inflammation…If you've avoided bread for years…Today's conversation will feel like freedom.I sit down with Cindy Anderson, founder of Manny's Choice and self-proclaimed “good gluten” advocate, who went from severe gluten intolerance and breast cancer to discovering a completely different kind of wheat — one that nourishes the body instead of inflaming it.This episode gently dismantles everything we've been taught about gluten and offers hope for anyone trapped by their symptoms.1. Cindy's Story: Severe Gluten Intolerance, Breast Cancer & a Search for AnswersCindy didn't start a company — she tried to save her health. She shares how she went from:Violent diarrheaMigrainesBloatingJoint pain so severe she felt “90 years old”Itchy skin and rashesBrain fog…to discovering she could eat gluten freely in Italy without a single symptom. This breakthrough revealed the truth about American and Canadian wheat — and how it's been altered beyond recognition.2. The Real Problem Isn't Gluten — It's What We've Done to WheatCindy explains why North American wheat causes extreme reactions:1950s nuclear food testing altered wheat's genetic “essence”“Dwarf wheat” engineered for profit, not healthModern milling burns the kernel, destroying nutrientsGluten concentrated 50–500x higherSynthetic folic acid sprayed on wheat — up to 80% of people can't process itRoundup forces faster harvesting and remains on grainPotassium bromate added to most breadsHer passion isn't for blaming gluten — it's for exposing the deception and preventable harm.3. The European DifferenceEuropean, Egyptian, and certain Middle Eastern wheat follow traditional farming and milling:No nuclear-altered seedsNo rapid-burn millingNo chemical spraysNutrient-rich soilNatural gluten levelsEven those with Hashimoto's, arthritis, brain fog, gut issues, or autism sensitivities often see dramatic improvements switching to these flours.4. Why Bread Used to Be NutritiousBread isn't supposed to hurt — it's meant to nourish. Natural wheat is:Anti-inflammatoryMineral-richGroundingGut-supportiveToxin-bindingA complex carbohydrate your brain needsCindy shares stories of:Arthritis disappearing after 25 yearsDiabetics whose blood sugar stays steadyChildren with autism who remain calm on Italian heritage wheatThese aren't just recipes — they're revelations.5. The Emotional Connection to FoodI share my own fear of gluten and symptoms — chronic pain, bloating, sleep issues. Cindy explains why:We've been marketed to fear glutenWe've blamed a natural molecule for chemically altered wheatHealing your relationship with wheat mirrors healing your relationship with food itself.6. Manny's Choice: Clean, Pure European FlourCindy's company was born from personal need and community demand. Her mixes are:100% European wheatFree of preservatives, GMOs, synthetic agentsSimple (9 ingredients vs. 47 in major U.S. brands)Beginner-friendlyCrafted for health and joyYes — I made the waffles with egg whites and loved them.7. Coupons & LinksWebsite: www.mannyschoiceflour.comCoupon code: MPWF for 10% offWhether baking bread, artisan loaves, sourdough, or pizza, this is the place to start.8. What This Episode Is Really AboutThis isn't just gluten — it's about making peace with food, releasing fear, and reconnecting with nourishment.“In this short time, I feel like I've made peace with gluten. And that's huge for me.”If you've feared gluten, avoided bread, felt betrayed by your body, or longed to enjoy food again — this episode will give you hope and a path forward.

Episode Description Your resistance to health, abundance, and love isn't a mindset problem—it's an energetic block. While the self-help industry pushes affirmations, manifestation techniques, and positive thinking, we're missing what's really stopping your breakthrough: stuck emotional energy trapped in your electromagnetic field that science is only now beginning to measure. Dr. G sits down with Oliver Nino (The Spiritual Activator), who reveals the truth: every self-sabotaging pattern, every financial block, and every relationship struggle is your energetic field communicating about unprocessed core wounds and nervous system dysregulation. But the most shocking revelation? "When someone's moving energy in their body, they're releasing stuck energy that holds people back from the life they're designed to live." Discover the profound energy-body-spirit connection behind chronic resistance and why clearing your energetic field is directly linked to something called "vibrational frequency"—allowing you to access alignment with abundance and restore your natural state of flow. If you've tried every supplement, diet, and exercise routine without lasting results, this episode reveals the missing piece. In This Episode:  How suppressed emotions create energetic blocks that manifest as physical and financial resistance  Why your healing crisis is fundamentally an energetic crisis, not just a physical one  The connection between core wounds (like unworthiness) and blocks in health, love, and money  How repressed energy stored in the body prevents manifestation and abundance  Why solitude and authentic energy are the foundation of true alignment  The link between victim mentality and chronic energetic drainage  How to stop absorbing negative energy from others and protect your field  The science behind electromagnetic fields and measurable healing through energy work  Why your nervous system stays stuck in fight-or-flight even when life looks perfect  How to identify and clear the invisible patterns blocking your breakthrough Find Oliver Niño here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spiritualactivator/?hl=en Website: https://www.spiritualactivator.com/ My one stop shop for quality supplements: https://theswellscore.com/pages/drg Timestamps: 0:00 - The Electromagnetic Field Beyond Your Skin  5:04 - From Entrepreneur to Spiritual Activator: Oliver's Origin Story  10:10 - How Energy Controls Your Life (Even If You Don't Believe)  21:07 - Physical Disease & Blocked Energy: The Connection  28:30 - The Pain That Disappeared After Gift Activation  36:00 - Signs Your Energy Field Is Blocked  39:43 - The Abundance Block That Changed Everything  46:10 - Breast Cancer & A Closed Heart: One Woman's Healing  52:01 - Releasing Past Pain to Attract Your Ideal Partner  56:03 - The 30-Second Energy Shield Technique You Need

Patient navigation has become one of the most powerful tools for improving breast cancer outcomes — and in Native American communities, it can be lifesaving. From long travel distances to specialty care, to navigating complex referral systems, to ensuring communication is culturally grounded and respectful, navigation helps Native patients feel supported every step of the way. In celebration of Native American Heritage Month, we're joined by Linda Burhansstipanov, MSPH, DrPH (Cherokee Nation) — founder of the Native American Cancer Research Corp. and a pioneer in developing culturally appropriate patient navigation models for Indigenous American communities. Dr. Burhansstipanov shares insights about how navigation strengthens trust, improves follow-through on screening and treatment, and supports families and entire communities. She also breaks down practical ways health systems and partners like Komen can work together to meet people where they are and help Native patients feel seen, respected and cared for.

Love the episode? Send us a text!In this powerful conversation, host Laura Carfang, founder of SurvivingBreastCancer.org, sits down with Adrian Mendes, CEO of Perimeter Medical Imaging, and Dr. Allison DiPasquale, breast surgical oncologist and technology innovator. Together, they unpack one of the most anxiety-provoking moments after breast cancer surgery: “Did we get clear margins?”Today, surgical innovation is radically changing that question.Dr. DiPasquale walks listeners through the current challenges surgeons face with breast surgery, why 20–25% of patients traditionally require a second surgery, and how new real-time imaging tools are dramatically lowering that number. Mendes shares how Perimeter's groundbreaking optical coherence tomography (OCT) and AI-powered margin assessment technology enables surgeons to visualize tissue in the operating room with near-microscopic detail—helping them achieve clear margins the first time.In this episode we discuss: What “clean margins” really mean and why they matterWhy many patients still face additional surgeries — and how that's changing How OCT imaging works What AI can detect that the human eye can'tHow this technology reduces repeat surgeries and emotional burdenWhat patients should ask their surgeon before going into the ORThe upcoming FDA review and when patients can expect wider availabilityHow rural and community hospitals could benefit from AI-assisted surgical toolsSupport the showLatest News: Become a Breast Cancer Conversations+ Member!

CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Hello and welcome to today's conversation with Andrew McCauley, a clinical specialist physiotherapist in lower limb/strength & conditioning, from Ireland and now based in the UKIn today's conversation, we talk about Andrew's journey as a physio, a coach and an educator, teaching therapists how to communicate effectively, especially around integrating strength and conditioning principles into rehab (and why I think he's a covert pelvic physio...)We talked about the importance of being a good communicator, especially when working with people in pain, building trust and creating a safe space, for discussing sensitive topics such as pelvic health.We also explored the principles of strength and conditioning, focusing on the importance of understanding concepts like stability and progressive overload. Andrew talked about how easy it can be for us to overlook the basics, but how we can effectively conduct strength training exercises without equipment, highlighting the need for effort and proper rest (we also discussed how we can intersect the worlds of pelvic health and strength training)We discussed exercise prescription strategies, how to adapt exercises based on patient characteristics and goals and how to get really good at asking better questions...as well as Therapist Anxiety Syndrome (you'll have to listen to find out more!)Andrew is all about empowering patients through clear goal setting and enhancing physio education and practice - I'm excited to be a student on Andrew's upcoming course, integrating coaching principles with strength and conditioning principles.

In this episode, Laura explores a question that often brings women more confusion than clarity: "What is my purpose?" Drawing from her own reflections and from coaching breast cancer survivors, she reframes the conversation around a far more supportive question: "Am I living on purpose?" You'll hear how intentional living supports cognitive health, stress resilience, emotional wellbeing, and metabolic healing after breast cancer. Laura breaks down the psychology and neuroscience behind purposeful living, explains why so many of us resist it, and shares simple, doable ways to build intention into your daily life. A perfect episode for the end of the year as you reflect on how you've lived and how you want to live moving forward.   Listen in to learn: Why chasing a single "life purpose" keeps so many women stuck after breast cancer How intention, not pressure, supports healing in the brain and body What research really means when it talks about "purpose in life" The three layers of living on purpose—awareness, alignment, and action Why intentional living feels vulnerable and how to begin gently How small, daily choices create a meaningful and aligned life over time   Explore more support: Better Than Before Breast Cancer Life Coaching Membership: https://www.thebreastcancerrecoverycoach.com/lifecoaching Creating a Life You Love in 168 Hours a Week: https://www.thebreastcancerrecoverycoach.com/168-hours-sp   Let's Connect!

In this episode, host Melissa Berry sits down with Dr. Rebecca Knackstedt, a dedicated and compassionate plastic surgeon and Assistant Professor of Surgery at Duke University to discuss the transformative power of breast pre-habilitation.  Specializing in microsurgical breast reconstruction and certified in Functional Medicine, Dr. Knackstedt has cared for thousands of women preparing for breast cancer surgery. She is passionate about helping patients use evidence-based strategies, including nutrition, supplementation, stress management, and sleep optimization, to take an active role in their healing. Together, they explore how this powerful yet often overlooked step can significantly enhance recovery, improve outcomes, reduce complications, and provide a greater sense of strength and control during your breast cancer experience.

There was a time when women's health was marginalized. There was a time when breast cancer wasn't discussed. There was a time when October wasn't pink. But three women--Shirley Temple Black, Rose Kushner, and Evelyn Lauder--refused to be silenced. Their courage ignited a movement that forever changed the way society addresses breast cancer. When these "radical sisters" were diagnosed, they faced a medical world rife with myths, outdated protocols, and a shocking lack of research. Breast cancer awareness was non-existent, and treatment options were limited. Yet, Shirley, Rose, and Evelyn--empowered by their own diagnoses--became trailblazing advocates for breast cancer research, early detection, and women's health. Their efforts broke open the conversation and set the stage for a new era of breast cancer advocacy. Radical Sisters: Shirley Temple Black, Rose Kushner, Evelyn Lauder, and the Dawn of the Breast Cancer Movement (Mayo Clinic Press, 2025) meticulously researched by award-winning biographer Judith L. Pearson, chronicles their powerful journeys. Taking cues from the women's health and AIDS movements, these inspirational women demanded a shift in how society viewed breast cancer--not as a taboo, but as a cause worthy of public attention and action. Today, more than 300,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer each year. They stand on the shoulders of these courageous pioneers, whose legacy has empowered generations to advocate for better healthcare, increased research, and greater awareness.

When Elizabeth Blair began lifting postpartum, she had no idea that strength training would one day become one of her most important tools in fighting cancer. In this powerful episode, Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson sit down with coach Nikki Berman and her client Elizabeth to explore the transformation that comes not from chasing PRs, but from choosing to show up when life hits hardest. Elizabeth shares her journey from new mom learning to deadlift, to receiving a diagnosis of aggressive triple-negative breast cancer, to lifting through chemo, surgery, and recovery. She and Nikki walk us through adapting training around a chemo port, managing energy and nausea, and redefining what "success" looks like when your goal shifts from performance to survival — and then back again. This conversation is about strength in every sense: physical, emotional, maternal, and human. It's a story of refusing to quit, of lifting through chemo to maintain dignity and control, and of building a body and mindset capable of meeting life's hardest challenges. Whether you're a lifter, a parent, or someone navigating your own fight, this episode shows that the path forward is through the obstacle — one rep, one day at a time.

My guest is Dr. David Fajgenbaum, MD, professor of translational medicine and human genetics at the University of Pennsylvania. He explains how, unbeknownst to most doctors, many approved medications can successfully treat or even cure diseases other than the ones they are typically used to treat. He shares his story of escaping death from Castleman's disease by discovering a life-saving treatment using repurposed drugs that were approved for other purposes. Our conversation explores how researchers, physicians, and you—the general public—can explore novel treatments and cures to conditions the medical profession has deemed untreatable, including cancers. We also discuss the crucial role of mindset in battling diseases and the lesser-known use of compounds to promote health and longevity. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
