In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Keith Diaz to discuss the significant health risks associated with prolonged sitting, likening it to smoking in terms of its dangers. He emphasizes the importance of regular movement, introducing the concept of 'movement snacks'—short bursts of activity that can mitigate the negative effects of sitting. We also cover the physiological mechanisms behind how movement affects blood sugar levels and inflammation, as well as insights from blue zones where people naturally incorporate more movement into their daily lives. Dr. Diaz advocates for personalized movement recommendations to help individuals improve their health outcomes.

Lipedema is one of the most misunderstood conditions women face. It shows up as uneven fat in the lower body that doesn't respond to diet or exercise, often leading to frustration, pain, and a feeling of being dismissed by healthcare providers. Beyond the physical symptoms, the emotional toll is huge. Once treated, many women celebrate simple wins like finally zipping up a pair of boots.San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Hector Salazar and massage therapist Linda-Anne Kahn explain what lipedema really is, how it differs from obesity, cellulite, and lymphedema, and why early diagnosis and treatment make such a difference. With over 40 years of experience working in integrative health, Linda-Anne shares how being diagnosed herself inspired her to help other women find relief through manual lymphatic drainage and holistic care. Dr. Salazar explains how he treats it surgically with liposuction, and how combining surgery with massage therapy, nutrition, and lifestyle changes can improve symptoms at every stage.Together, they break down what works, what doesn't, and why awareness of lipedema matters for patients, families, and providers alike.LinksIf you have lipedema and want to learn how we can help you get the answers and treatment you deserve, request a free consultation with Dr. SalazarMeet San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Hector Salazar-ReyesLearn more about San Diego lymphatic drainage massage therapist Linda-Anne KahnCheck out the book Linda-Anne co-authored, Lymphedema and Lipedema Nutrition GuideLearn from the talented plastic surgeons inside La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre, the 12x winner of the San Diego's Best Union-Tribune Readers Poll, global winner of the 2020 MyFaceMyBody Best Cosmetic/Plastic Surgery Practice, and the 2025 winner of Best Cosmetic Surgery Group in San Diego Magazine's Best of San Diego Awards.Join hostess Monique Ramsey as she takes you inside LJCSC, where dreams become real.

After 21 years with implants, Jennifer has reached her limits with the pain, scar tissue, and breasts that stretched far beyond what she ever imagined. What started as 420cc implants have grown from a D cup to triple Ds, leaving her hunched over with aching joints.At first, she considered swapping them out for smaller implants, but during her consultation, breast implant removal expert Dr. Luke Swistun reassured her that she had plenty of natural tissue to work with. Simply downsizing would mean another surgery down the road, and her own tissue could be sculpted into a beautiful, natural shape without any implants. That was all it took to change her mind and move forward with an explant with auto-augmentation. Jennifer is now looking forward to lighter, more natural breasts and the freedom to finally wear tube tops and spaghetti straps with confidence.

Breast implants don't just change your body.

Patients often say, “I got my life back.”San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke Swistun and his wife, clinical psychologist and sleep specialist Dr. Dominika Swistun, explain how implants can fuel anxiety and disrupt sleep, and why explant surgery often lifts both physical and emotional weight.From the story of a woman who was placed on full disability for panic attacks and immediately felt like herself again after explant surgery to research showing how sleep quality shapes mental health, the Swistuns reveal the powerful—and often overlooked—connection between implants, the body, and the mind.LinksListen to our previous episode, A Sleep Specialist's Secrets for Better Mood, Skin & EnergyRead more about San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke Swistun and schedule your complimentary consultationFollow Dr. Swistun on Instagram @swistunmd to see his explant resultsLearn more about breast implant removalLearn from the talented plastic surgeons inside La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre, the 12x winner of the San Diego's Best Union-Tribune Readers Poll, global winner of the 2020 MyFaceMyBody Best Cosmetic/Plastic Surgery Practice, and the 2025 winner of Best Cosmetic Surgery Group in San Diego Magazine's Best of San Diego Awards.Join hostess Monique Ramsey as she takes you inside LJCSC, where dreams become real.

Seth outlines three domains: foundational, emotional, and holistic wellbeing.☑️ Health Literacy as Foundation: Health literacy is a powerful determinant of health, even more than income or education. Understanding and navigating the healthcare system is core to personal and community wellbeing.☑️ The Power of Purpose, Awe, and Social Connections: Seth highlights the science behind purpose, awe, gratitude, humor, and meaningful social connections as often-overlooked but critical elements of wellbeing and resilience.☑️ Addressing Loneliness and Caregiving: Tackling loneliness—often called a new epidemic—and supporting caregivers are essential for improving health outcomes across all generations.☑️ Community and Workforce Impact: Employers and communities are recognizing that boosting health literacy and wellbeing drives better health outcomes, lifts whole populations, and fosters healthier, happier workplaces.This episode is a compelling reminder that small, intentional steps, grounded in science, purpose, and connection, can generate outsized impacts on our personal and collective health.Buy the book: sethserxner.com/book-2/Learn About EdLogicsWant to see how EdLogics' gamified platform can boost health literacy, drive engagement in health and wellness programs, and help people live happier, healthier lives?Visit the EdLogics website: www.edlogics.com

Ever feel like you're constantly performing the "right" version of yourself while your authentic self gets buried under endless expectations? This conversation explores how we've outsourced our sense of identity to social media, productivity culture, and other people's definitions of success—leaving us fractured and exhausted. Through the story of Moses discovering a burning bush during his mundane shepherd days, we examine how intentional solitude and margin aren't luxuries for introverts, but necessary practices for anyone wanting to reconnect with who they really are. Whether you're an extrovert with ADHD or someone who thrives on constant stimulation, there are practical ways to step outside the relentless flow and create space for curiosity, creativity, and authentic connection. Perfect for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the "everything everywhere all at once" pace of modern life and wondering how to find themselves again beneath all the noise.
