I explore the real roots of self-worth and why so many of us struggle with it despite doing “all the right things.” I share how childhood experiences shape attachment and how that impacts our ability to value ourselves as adults. I also break down the crucial practices that build self-worth — from expressing needs and boundaries to taking healthy risks. Finally, I open up about my own journey of failing my way to success and how you can begin your own process of healing.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 – What really damages self-worth02:29 – Attachment and early development07:23 – Childhood shame and adult struggles11:41 – Hostility to needs and boundaries15:23 – Expressing desires and boundaries18:58 – The risks of lacking self-worth23:24 – Doing hard things builds value25:05 – ManTalks Alliance invitation***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

What if the very tests your doctor says are “normal” are actually missing the real reason you feel exhausted, foggy, anxious, or out of balance? For millions of people, thyroid issues are at the heart of their symptoms — yet they're often overlooked, misdiagnosed, or mistreated.   In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with McCall McPherson, PA-C — a physician associate, TEDx speaker, and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic — to uncover the truth about thyroid health and the issues with how the conventional model addresses it. McCall shares both her medical expertise and her personal journey with hypothyroidism, shedding light on why so many patients aren't getting the answers they need and what we can do differently.   Together, we explore the crucial differences between Hashimoto's, Graves', and hypothyroidism, why relying on TSH markers alone misses the bigger picture, and the labs that actually matter. We talk about the role of inflammation, toxins, and stress in autoimmune thyroid disease, as well as the hidden connections between thyroid health, heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline.   McCall also opens up about controversial topics many doctors don't discuss — from the risks of birth control and misconceptions about hormone replacement therapy to the overuse of GLP-1 drugs. And she offers practical, empowering lifestyle shifts — from food to relationships to microdosing peptides — that can make a profound difference in daily health.   This is an eye-opening and life-changing conversation for anyone who has ever been told their labs are “normal” but still knows something isn't right.

Today's guest is Hanna Hanula is a somatic healer, psycho-somatic guide, and intuitive wellness mentor who empowers high achievers — especially women — to reconnect with their bodies, uncover hidden emotional patterns, and transform chronic symptoms into pathways of healing. Hanna is a former financial analyst who transformed her own struggles with anxiety, ADHD, digestive issues, and internal hyperdrive into a deeply embodied practice. She draws from a rich blend of somatic therapy, naturopathy, nutrition, energy work, and intuitive guidance to help clients decode the body's messages and soften the grip of burnout, tension, and overwhelm.  In this conversation, we discuss personal experiences with anxiety and physical symptoms, the impact of childhood trauma, the importance of being present and listening to one's body and practical tools for nervous system regulation and the significance of living authentically and consciously.   We discuss:    Somatic healing connects the mind and body. Childhood experiences shape our emotional responses. The body holds stories that need to be uncovered. Compassionate guidance is essential in healing. High-functioning individuals often disconnect from their bodies. Practices like humming can strengthen the vagus nerve. Living authentically involves being true to oneself. Mindfulness can help regulate the nervous system. Understanding our adaptations can lead to healing. We are not our diagnoses; we are complex beings.   Visit Hanna's website Follow Hanna on Instagram Connect with me on Instagram  ShopMy - What I'm Loving Lately

In this gripping and heartfelt episode of The Surviving Siblings® Podcast, host Maya Roffler welcomes Brennan to share the devastating and unexpected loss of her younger brother, Jackson, during a freak storm in 2019. What begins as a reflection on their sibling relationship through childhood, divorce, and young adulthood turns into a powerful story of trauma, survival, family dynamics, and what it means to rebuild, both physically and emotionally. Brennan takes us back to life growing up in the Mississippi Delta, the evolution of her bond with Jackson, and the unique pain of being the only surviving sibling. When a storm tore through her hometown, uprooting trees and altering the course of her family's life in an instant, Brennan was thrust into a nightmarish journey of grief, resilience, and reconstruction, literally and emotionally. The episode dives deep into themes of sudden loss, natural disaster trauma, complicated family dynamics, anticipatory grief, and healing through change. Brennan shares how she supported both of her divorced parents in uniquely different ways, helped rebuild the family home, and eventually made a life-changing move across the country that helped her begin healing. In This Episode: (0:00:00) – Meet Brennan and Her Brother Jackson Maya welcomes Brennan, who shares stories of growing up six years apart from her brother Jackson and how their sibling dynamic changed over time. (0:03:00) – Childhood, Divorce, and Reconnection Brennan reflects on how her parents' divorce affected her relationship with Jackson and how their bond began to strengthen as they got older. (0:05:00) – The Day Everything Changed Brennan recounts the tragic storm that took Jackson's life, the chilling phone call from her father, and the frantic drive through fallen trees and flooded roads to reach her family home. (0:07:00) – A Father's Desperation and a Devastating Scene She shares the harrowing details of her arrival: her father soaked and shivering, first responders delayed, and the realization that her brother was already gone. (0:09:00) – A Freak Storm with No Warning Brennan explains the storm conditions and how a misreported tornado warning led to five massive oak trees being uprooted one of which landed directly on the home's front door. (0:11:00) – Shock, Rescue, and Reality Setting In She describes the painful wait, her father's rescue attempts, and the surrealism of those first few hours of grief. (0:13:00) – Storm Preparedness, Tornado Drills, and Coping with Chaos Maya and Brennan reflect on growing up with tornado drills and how this tragedy added a new, personal layer to those experiences. (0:23:00) – Planning a Funeral Through Grief Brennan takes the lead on planning Jackson's service, navigating her parents' conflicting wishes, and honoring her brother with a celebration at his childhood church. (0:26:00) – A Standing Room Only Memorial The funeral draws a massive crowd every seat filled, and hundreds standing. Brennan reflects on how that overwhelming support was both shocking and comforting. (0:29:00) – Back to Work and Back to the Build Just days later, Brennan returns to work and begins helping her father rebuild the house, an emotional and physical labor of love that spans over two years. (0:33:00) – Grieving Through a Pandemic She shares how grief collided with COVID-19, slowing down the rebuild and affecting her mental health, her parents' well-being, and their support systems. (0:35:00) – A Fresh Start in Las Vegas Brennan talks about the pivotal phone call from her mom asking her to move across the country. Without hesitation, she says yes. (0:44:00) – Helping Her Mom Through Grief She reflects on moving in with her mom, their evolving relationship, and witnessing how differently each parent handled Jackson's death. (0:47:00) – Two Parents, Two Grief Journeys Brennan discusses how her dad grieved through action, while her mom grieved through emotion, and how she found herself trying to show up for both—while still navigating her own loss. (0:50:00) – The Only Surviving Sibling As the only surviving sibling, Brennan opens up about feeling lonely in her grief, questioning her place in her parents' world, and learning to own her voice and her story. (0:56:00) – Advice to the Newly Bereaved Brennan's parting words are powerful: “Give yourself grace. Don't bottle it up. If you don't let it out, it becomes a monster.” She encourages all siblings to reach out, speak up, and find safe people to lean on.

Send us a textThe clock isn't just on your wall—it's in your cells. As autumn settles in and daylight wanes, we dig into how light acts as information for your biology, shaping sleep depth, hormone timing, and metabolic health. A standout 15-year cohort of 200,000+ children links persistent artificial light at night to higher obesity risk, and it pairs with wearable data from tens of thousands of people that reveals how little real sunlight most of us get—even at the height of summer.We break down what's actually happening under the hood. Blue-heavy light is a powerful morning cue, but after dusk it sends the wrong signal, suppressing melatonin, shrinking deep sleep, and nudging insulin rhythms off track. That chronic mismatch adds up, especially for kids. Beyond the usual vitamin D narrative, we talk about why full-spectrum sunlight—including infrared—matters for mitochondria, vascular function, mood, and focus, and why energy-efficient LEDs often strip out the very wavelengths that buffer blue and support recovery.You'll also get a practical, science-backed playbook you can start tonight. We cover morning outdoor light routines, how to set up your home with full-spectrum lamps for daytime and zero-blue bulbs for evenings, and why programmable circadian lights are a smart upgrade for fall and winter. We share simple screen hygiene, when blue-blocking glasses help, and how to navigate harsh indoor lighting without wrecking your sleep. The goal is coherence: brighter, broader mornings; softer, blue-free nights; and consistent cues your body can trust. If you're ready to trade “junk light” for light that works with you, not against you, hit play and build your seasonal routine. Enjoyed the conversation?

Imagine a child stepping into their first classroom, carrying with them a world shaped by family stress, poverty, or developmental challenges. What happens next is more than a story of struggle—it's a story of hope, resilience, and the powerful impact of everyday relationships. Welcome to the Mind The Kids podcast series. Today's episode, ‘Navigating Early Risk How Kindergarten Shapes Childhood Outcomes', explores how early childhood risks such as poverty, family stress, and developmental delays influence children's outcomes in school, and how positive experiences in kindergarten can protect children as they grow older. Your host Mark Tebbs —a lifelong advocate for mental health and currently Chief Executive of a leading charity focused on community wellbeing. In this episode Mark is joined by Dr. Katharina Haag, senior researcher at the Norwegian Institute for Violence and Traumatic Stress Studies, to discuss her recent paper published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP), “Navigating Early Risk: Differential Outcomes in Middle Childhood and the Compensatory Role of Kindergarten Experiences”. https://acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/jcpp.14158 As Dr. Haag explains: “We know that close relationships with teachers, and social play in kindergarten, were linked to better outcomes across the board, regardless of the child's risk profile.” Mark and Katharina reflect on what Norway's universal, high-quality kindergarten system means for other countries grappling with unequal access and persistent childhood inequalities. Mark asks the questions every parent and policymaker has wondered: Can early education truly level the playing field? What does it take to translate hope into lasting change? And, most importantly, what practical lessons can be applied wherever children grow up? Whether a parent, teacher, or mental health professional, listeners leave with a sense of possibility—and a call to remember that small moments of support can change the trajectory of a child's life. If you enjoy what you hear, please leave a review or share the episode to help spread evidence-based insights in child and adolescent mental health.

This is a chilling account of an attachment haunting — not a ghost bound to place, but something that has latched onto a person. From childhood “sensitive” playmates to a black, basketball-sized orb that leapt at her face at nineteen, to the mornings in Elk Grove when a raw, guttural scream ripped in her ear the instant she reached for her phone — the pattern is relentless. She moves into an apartment, invites a roommate, and the phenomena escalate: growling dogs fixated on one patch of ceiling, closet lights turning on without touch, faucets switching to shower with no hands involved, and fresh, shallow scratches appearing on her skin like signatures left by something unseen. This is a real haunting that infects daily routine and privacy. We explore the terrifying breadcrumbs: the bed that shakes hard enough to knock her sideways, a roommate who sees a light under a door that should be dark, and a dog that becomes guardian and witness. It's the kind of haunting that erodes life quietly — seizing bedrooms, splitting households, and turning sanctuary into quarantine. Is it a poltergeist, a parasitic entity feeding on fear, or a misunderstood spirit seeking connection? Or worse — has something chosen her as its host? #TrueGhostStory #AttachmentHaunting #HauntedPerson #RealHaunting #Paranormal #HauntedApartment #ShadowEntity #Poltergeist #HauntedHouse #CreepyEncounters #TheUnexplained #UnexplainedPhenomena Love real ghost stories?

What happens when kids grow up without free play? Licensed therapist Nicole Runyon, LMSW, has been on the frontlines of America's childhood mental health crisis, and what she's seen is sobering: most of the children filling therapy offices don't actually need therapy—they need their parents to reclaim the foundations of childhood. In this episode, we dig into her groundbreaking book Free to Fly and uncover why play, movement, discomfort, and independence are not luxuries—they are the very building blocks of healthy development. Screens, overpathologizing, and permissive parenting are stealing what used to come naturally, and our kids are paying the price. Nicole explains why play-based childhoods are being stolen from today's iGeneration, how “drug addiction begins with the iPad,” and why discomfort is not the enemy but the doorway to confidence and resilience. We cover everything from the dangers of tracking teens and delaying driving, to the epidemic of broken children overwhelmed by screens, junk food, and anxiety. Most importantly, Nicole reminds us that the answer lies within the family unit. Parents have more power than they think, and small, courageous choices can restore independence, health, and joy to the next generation. Learn more about your ad choices.

Are killers born… or made? In today's Crime Talk, we dive deep into the family dynamics and childhood environments of two of the most notorious figures in criminal history: Jeffrey Dahmer and Bryan Kohberger. How do early family relationships, trauma, neglect, or social disconnection shape someone into a murderer? And more importantly, can understanding these origins help us prevent future tragedies? Scott Reisch breaks it all down — from Dahmer's chaotic home life to Kohberger's feelings of isolation — and what it all means for criminology and public safety.

At the age of 16, Lorde went #1 across the world. She was catapulted from the suburbs of Auckland to the Grammy's stage, winning Song of the Year. 12 years and four albums later, she's continued to defy expectations as a pop artist and is one of the most gifted songwriters of our time. This is an extended edit of a Take 5 that was filmed for the TV series, but this podcast is an extended edit - capturing even more stories, insight, and sounds. It's an incredible conversation with one of the most thoughtful people I've met. Lorde has been going through a massive period of change. A chrysalis, taking new form. So I worked up a Take 5 theme to draw that out. And from Lucinda Williams to Westerman to something very close to home, hearing her speak about the craft of song is a rare treat.Lorde's song choices:Lucinda Williams – 'Fruits of My Labor'Bronski Beat – 'Smalltown Boy'Nina Simone – 'Suzanne'Westerman – 'Confirmation'Charli xcx & Lorde – 'Girl, so confusing featuring lorde'00:00 Introduction and Podcast Overview00:49 Lorde's Early Influences and First Song Choice02:04 Lucinda Williams' Impact on Lorde09:30 Lorde's Childhood and Musical Beginnings12:56 The Mystery of Songwriting14:02 Second Song Choice: Small Town Boy24:10 Reflecting on Teenage Years and Womanhood28:22 Lorde's Relationship with Her Parents30:18 Third Song Choice: Suzanne30:27 Nina Simone's Transformative Cover of 'Suzanne'31:16 Leonard Cohen's Inspiration and Poetic Imagery32:12 Nina Simone's Unique Interpretation35:39 Exploring Gender and Identity in Music36:36 The Impact of Personal Transformation39:48 The Creative Process Behind 'Virgin'46:20 The Emotional Journey of 'Girl So Confusing'50:06 Reflections on Vulnerability and Friendship55:22 Concluding Thoughts and Future PlansWatch Take 5 on ABC iview:https://iview.abc.net.au/show/take-5-with-zan-rowe

The region at the heart of a current measles outbreak has seen the biggest slide in child vaccination rates in in the country. The number of Northland children fully immunised at 24 months of age has dropped about four percent to just 62.3 percent in the past three months with the region lagging way behind other areas. That's despite an overall improvement nationwide. Health target data released today shows 82 percent of two-year-olds have had all their vaccinations up from 76.5 percent last year. There's currently four confirmed measles cases in Northland and one unrelated case in Queenstown. Health Minister Simeon Brown says there's a pop up vaccination clinic operating in Northland and the government's partnered with Hauora Maori organisations to raise immunisation rates. Childhood vacinations also dropped in Whanganui, Nelson Marlborough and Canterbury. Maori paediatrician and chairperson of the National Immunisation Taskforce Dr Owen Sinclair spoke to Lisa Owen.

Welcome back to Dial Emma! Each week, I'll be answering your dilemmas with honesty, empathy, and a few therapeutic truth bombs to help you make sense of life's stickiest moments. If you've ever wished you had a therapist in your back pocket, Dial Emma is here to help.What happens when a friendship fades without explanation, or ends in a way that feels like a betrayal?This week, I'm exploring the fragile bonds of friendship, and the lack of rituals for closure, clear endings, or language to help us process when they unravel. Our first dilemma involves a friendship that has been slowly, quietly drifting away with no explanation, leaving our listener wondering if they're asking for too much; the second sees a childhood promise broken in a very public way, creating a rupture in a 25-year friendship that is proving difficult to move past.This episode is a reminder that friendships don't have to be constant to be real - but they do have to be mutual. When they no longer are, the grief of their loss is both real and valid. By acknowledging it, we create the space for new connections that choose us back, in the here and now.If you have a dilemma for Emma, please fill out this form. ---Dial Emma is hosted by Emma Reed Turrell, produced by Lauren Brook.---Social media:Emma Reed Turrell @emmareedturrellDial Emma @dialemmapodcastEmail: contact@dial-emma.uk

We then dive into temperament differences, the role of self-compassion, and even family practices like “positive gossip” that make kindness contagious.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

In this solo episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I dive into the valuable life lessons we as fathers can teach our kids through sports—lessons that go far beyond winning or losing. Whether it's about praising effort over outcomes, sharing personal stories of hard work, or simply playing together with no agenda, I explore how to build stronger bonds and greater resilience in our kids through these moments. This episode is a call to reframe how we show up on the sidelines and in life. Sports can be more than competition—they can be a platform for presence, growth, and connection. If you want to raise grounded, hardworking kids who aren't afraid of putting in the reps, this episode is for you.

Praise Effort, Not Just Results When we focus on our kids' preparation, persistence, and grit rather than wins or trophies, we help them develop a growth mindset that builds confidence and resilience. 2. Real-Life Stories Create Connection Sharing your own stories of hard work, sacrifice, and struggle makes your guidance more credible and relatable—and shows your kids you've been in their shoes. 3. Play Without a Purpose Connection often happens in the unstructured moments. Whether it's football or taekwondo, playing with your kids for the sake of fun builds trust and memories. 4. Ask Better Questions Instead of asking “How was practice?”, ask “What did you learn this week from sports?” Push them to reflect and communicate their growth and insights. 5. Lead Without Losing What Matters Whether you're a career man or building a business, don't trade connection with your wife or kids for productivity. Build both—intentionally.
