Chronic fatigue is one of the most common complaints among women, especially after the holidays. But is it really your thyroid? In this episode, Dr. Kris explains how adrenal stress and disrupted cortisol rhythms can interfere with thyroid function, leaving women exhausted even when lab tests appear normal. You'll learn how to recognize adrenal-driven fatigue, why January “resets” often backfire, and how rest and nourishment are essential for healing. God designed the body to restore — not to live in survival mode.
Have you ever said, "I just don't feel like myself anymore" — even though your labs look normal? In this episode of the Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause breaks down why inflammation starts in the brain, how it drives fatigue, brain fog, cravings, hormone imbalance, and accelerated aging — and why 2026 is the year to stop suppressing symptoms and start correcting root causes. Inflammation isn't just a body problem. It's a brain health issue first. Your brain uses 20% of your daily calories, and when inflammation is present, it shifts into defensive mode, not performance mode. That's when clarity disappears, energy crashes, and nothing feels like it's working anymore.

Chronic pain doesn’t come from one place — and it can’t be healed in isolation. In this episode of Vibe Science, we sit down with Vinny Crispino, founder of Pain Academy, to unpack his journey from elite Division I swimmer to a life-altering back injury that forced him to rethink everything he knew about healing. After years of surgeries, rehab protocols, and specialists that focused only on the injury, Vinny discovered that true healing required a broader approach — one that integrates movement, nervous system regulation, emotional awareness, and whole-body function. This episode explores: Why pain often lingers long after injuries “heal” The limits of Western medicine — and where it shines How emotional stress shows up physically in the body Why compensation patterns create chronic pain cycles The power of awareness in reconnecting mind and body How healing pain often transforms relationships and quality of life Vinny shares why pain is not a flaw — but feedback — and how learning to listen to your body can unlock physical freedom and emotional clarity. If you’ve ever felt stuck, broken, or afraid to move again, this conversation offers a radically empowering perspective. Keep up with Vinny! Guest: Vinny CrispinoInstagram: @painacademy

Top Causes of Chronic Inflammation You Need to Know | Podcast #468
Summary In this conversation, Ali Damron and Morgana Lakatos Hayward discuss the complexities of perimenopause and menopause, focusing on the hormonal changes that affect women's health, weight loss, and overall well-being. They explore the inadequacies of traditional dieting methods, the importance of understanding women's unique biological needs, and the role of stress and nervous system regulation in health. The discussion also covers the significance of intuitive eating, self-trust, and the challenges faced by women in the sandwich generation. Morgana shares insights from her 60-Day Shed program, emphasizing a holistic approach to health and wellness. Takeaways Many traditional weight loss methods are based on male biology. Cortisol spikes can lead to hormonal imbalances and weight gain. Fasting may not be suitable for all women, especially during hormonal fluctuations. Chronic dieting can lead to a negative relationship with food. Nervous system regulation is crucial for managing stress and health. Building self-trust is essential for successful intuitive eating. Women in the sandwich generation face unique stressors and challenges. Perimenopause can be reframed as a positive transition phase. HRT and supplements should complement a solid lifestyle foundation. Creating a sustainable lifestyle involves understanding individual needs and preferences.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Alefiyah Lindo discuss:Planning the future by evaluating what actually workedSupporting happiness without trying to control itUsing energy as a diagnostic tool for alignmentTreating burnout as feedback and adjusting accordingly Key Takeaways:Reviewing the past year reveals which habits, strategies, and commitments deserve to continue and which do not. Entering a new year without reflection leads to repeating default patterns rather than making intentional choices. Sustainable growth comes from consistency and long-term relationship building, not one-off efforts.You cannot create happiness for others, only support their ability to create it themselves. Taking responsibility for other people's emotional outcomes leads to exhaustion and blurred boundaries. Healthy leadership and parenting require allowing others to experience discomfort and self-direction.Alignment exists when beliefs, words, actions, and emotions are consistent with one another. Chronic fatigue, burnout, and self-sabotage are indicators of misalignment rather than laziness or failure. Tracking what energizes and depletes you provides clearer guidance than what you think you “should” enjoy.Burnout signals a need to realign priorities, responsibilities, and expectations. Bringing subconscious patterns into conscious awareness is a prerequisite for lasting change. Different results require different actions, even when those actions challenge long-held assumptions. "Energy work really is when what we believe, what we say, what we do, and what we feel are all on the same page. That's what energy alignment is." — Alefiyah Lindo Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.

In this episode of the You Are Not Broken podcast, Kelly Casperson and Dr. Mariza Snyder discuss the transformative journey of women navigating perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Mariza shares her personal experiences with chronic migraines and how they led her to become a functional medicine practitioner focused on women's health. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding hormonal changes, the impact of chronic stress, and the necessity of movement and nutrition in reclaiming health. Dr. Mariza encourages women to envision their future selves and take ownership of their health journeys, while also addressing the societal pressures that contribute to stress and unhealthy habits. Takeaways Dr. Mariza's journey from chiropractic to functional medicine was driven by her own health struggles. Chronic migraines often affect women in perimenopause due to hormonal changes. Empowering women through health can create a multiplier effect in communities. Movement is essential for recovery and overall well-being. Functional health practitioners focus on root causes rather than just symptoms. Women often feel pressured to be busy, which can lead to chronic stress. Adrenal fatigue is not a recognized medical diagnosis, but stress impacts health significantly. Nutrition plays a crucial role in managing health, especially regarding processed sugars. Insulin resistance is a growing concern for women in midlife. Reading and self-education can empower individuals to take control of their health.

What happens after the deal closes is the question too few founders ask. In this conversation on Your N.E.X.T., Jerome Myers sits down again with Dr. Michelle Fritsch to explore why even highly successful founders feel lost, disconnected, or unprepared after exiting their businesses. Together, they unpack the often-ignored realities of post-exit life—identity loss, health decline, strained relationships, and the myth that money alone creates fulfillment. The conversation also introduces the thinking behind the Exit Ready Summit, a boardroom-style experience designed to help founders prepare not just financially, but personally, relationally, and purposefully for life beyond the business. [00:00 – 07:00] | The Question Founders Avoid Most founders ask when to exit, not who they'll be afterExits are transformational portals, not just transactions Identity loss is the biggest blind spot in exit planning [07:01 – 14:00] | Why Health Is the First Domino Burnout is often a biological warning, not a mindset failure Chronic stress erodes decision-making long before exits occur Founders often sacrifice sleep, recovery, and relationships to “push through” [14:01 – 21:00] | The Myth That Money Fixes Everything Financial readiness does not replace identity or purposeWealth without structure can magnify loneliness and confusion Time and talent atrophy without intentional direction [21:01 – 28:00] | The Identity Vacuum After the Exit Many founders experience cognitive fog and loss of relevance Structure disappears overnight, leaving emotional free-fall Divorce and relationship breakdowns often spike post-exit [28:01 – 35:00] | Why Purpose Cannot Be an Afterthought Exiting from a business is not the same as exiting to something meaningful Lack of purpose leads to isolation, depression, and disengagement Relationships that once defined daily life often disappear post-exit [35:01 – 42:00] | Who the Exit Ready Summit Is—and Is Not—For Designed for founders who want clarity, not just liquidity Not for those unwilling to be vulnerable or self-reflective Small, boardroom setting enables real conversations Key Quotes “Relevance is one of the first things founders quietly grieve after they exit.” - Dr. Michelle Fritsch Burnout is not a mindset problem.

Ever wondered how light and sound can influence your brain's energy? In this episode of Peak Human Labs, Dr. Sanjeev Goyal sits down with Dr. Patrick Porter, the scientist and innovator behind the BrainTap technology, a system used in more than 3,000 clinics and by over 120,000 individuals worldwide. Dr Porter breaks down the misunderstood world of brainwaves, energy, cognition, and how light and sound can radically shift your mental state, upgrade your nervous system, and support deep healing. From childhood exposure to meditation and the Silva Method to pioneering the first portable light-and-sound machine in the 1980s, Dr Porter reveals the real science behind brainwave entrainment and why most of us are missing the essential neurological patterns required for peak performance. He explains why chronic stress locks your brain into beta overdrive, how theta governs creativity and epiphany, why delta sleep is the missing piece in emotional regulation, and how gamma synchronisation unlocks high-performance thinking. Dr Porter also exposes a hidden problem: most adults today operate with dangerously low brain voltage, and he explains how energy collapse drives memory issues, anxiety, cognitive decline, addiction cycles, poor sleep, and low resilience. He shares how BrainTap uses targeted light, sound frequencies, and vagus nerve stimulation to retrain the brain into balance, boost ATP production, and restore the neuroplasticity most people have lost. This is a deeply eye-opening conversation about the science of consciousness, the biology of energy, the rise of biophotonic medicine, and the future of brain optimisation. If you've ever wondered why you feel drained, foggy, unfocused, or stuck, or you simply want to unlock higher cognitive performance, this episode is essential. Sign up on Brain Tap now! Our Guest: Dr. Patrick Porter Dr Patrick Porter is a neuroscientist, inventor, and creator of BrainTap, a leading brain entertainment technology that blends light, sound, and guided sessions to optimise brainwaves and boost cellular energy. With decades of experience in neuropsychology and light and sound research, Dr. Porter has helped millions through clinical programs, corporate performance protocols, brain injury recovery work, and mental wellness systems. His research includes partnerships with NIH, professional sports teams, and major tech companies. Key Takeaways Your brain operates through a spectrum of frequencies, and imbalance, especially excess beta, drives fear, stress, and cognitive shutdown. Most adults are missing critical theta activity, which blocks creativity, clarity, and neuroplasticity. Energy, not effort, determines mental performance. Low ATP equals low focus, slow thinking, and emotional instability. The brain can rewire itself at any age if the right frequencies and energy sources are provided. Light is a primary nutrient for the brain. Your eyes and ears deliver biophotonic energy that fuels mitochondria. Chronic alcohol use dramatically collapses brain energy. Even a single drink can drop voltage by up to 70 percent. Deep sleep depends on delta waves, not hours in bed. Most people are lying down but not truly sleeping. Sound, vibration, and light can synchronize brain hemispheres and boost cognition. Your thoughts emit measurable energy and influence your biology, emotions, and environment. Meditation alone often is not enough. Passive meditation does not reliably change the brain unless brainwaves shift.

Complex trauma is more common than you might think. Many people face a host of significant challenges such as damaging childhood experiences, relationship abuse, and terrifying life events. The impact of traumatic experiences can surely accumulate over time even though we're often unaware of the significant mental, emotional, and physical toll. Sadly, we end up merely "holding it together" as we march forward in survival mode. Yet, when we suppress trauma, the core parts of who we are often starve and wither away. Today, I'm joined by a tremendous complex trauma expert, Dr. Harris, who will help us unravel how anxiety and fear can hold us back--and how to heal and move forward. Topics discussed include somatic experiencing therapy, validation, kindness, healing, empathy, body-based healing, glimmers, stalking, rape, emotional abuse, physical abuse, financial abuse, domestic violence, support, Healing Your Way Home Retreat, secure attachment, insecure attachment, and psychotherapy.Please note that this episode contains sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Note: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.

f you've been trying emotional healing to heal trauma or chronic illness but feel like you're getting worse, you are not alone. In this raw, unscripted video, I break down why jumping straight into trauma work can backfire, and all the other pits people can fall into, based on working with over 2000 clients Healing from trauma, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), Long Covid, and chronic pain requires more than just "thinking positive." It requires deep somatic healing and nervous system regulation. If you are struggling with , or trapped trauma, this video explains the biological reality of why the process is so difficult and how to navigate it without re-traumatizing yourself.
In this solo episode of The SuperLife Podcast, Darin Olien dives deep into the true biology of energy—not motivation, not stimulants, not willpower, but the mitochondria themselves. Inspired by a groundbreaking conversation between Dr. Andrew Huberman and Dr. Martin Picard, Darin reframes energy as an emergent property of how we live, not just what we eat or how much we sleep. This episode explores how mitochondria act as signal translators, listening to your food, stress, sleep, movement, emotions, purpose, and environment—and turning those signals into either vitality or depletion. Darin connects cutting-edge mitochondrial science with real-world practices around recovery, meaningful stress, consistency, connection, and alignment, showing how true longevity and resilience are built at the cellular level.

Today's guest is Kevin Secours. Kevin is a veteran martial arts coach, author, and former security professional with decades of experience across Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, Karate, and Russian Systema. Holding five black belts (including an 8th-dan), Kevin has worked extensively in real-world contexts while also teaching meditation, solo training, and strength rituals. He is the author of Rituals of Strength and Unconstrained, and is known for blending martial tradition, modern training theory, psychology, and philosophical inquiry into human development and resilience The conditioning and tempering of the body in striking sports can draw interesting parallels to collisions needed in jumping, sprinting and landing activities. We can also draw many lessons and ideas from the exercise tradition that goes back centuries with martial arts practice. By understanding combat training disciplines, we can draw out universal application for general movement and performance. In this episode, we explore the deeper purpose of physical training through martial arts and sport performance. Kevin reflects on early experiences with body hardening, cold exposure, and Zen-influenced practice, examining where such methods build resilience and where they become self-destructive. Drawing parallels to sprinting, jumping, and strength training, we discuss collisions, long isometric holds, ritualized discomfort, and fatigue as tools for cultivating awareness, reducing excess tension, and supporting longevity.

Training should serve health and preparedness, not destroy the body you are trying to protect. Exposure must be progressive and intentional, not reckless. Body tension, trauma, and reading the athlete Chronic tension often reflects psychological history, not just physical limitations. Coaches should first understand an athlete's motive for training. Creating a safe and inclusive environment allows tension to unwind. Exhaustion can reveal new movement options and reduce overthinking. Isometrics, Soviet methods, and slow strength Long isometric holds build physical strength and mental resilience. Slow strength exposes weak links that fast movement can hide. Discomfort creates space for reflection and adaptability. Training methods were shaped by harsher living conditions and necessity. Journaling, drawing, and learning through reflection Writing and sketching reinforce learning more deeply than words alone. Stick figures and simple drawings improve memory and understanding. Documentation is a form of legacy and long term learning. Mindset, adaptability, and mental speed Adaptability in movement reflects adaptability in thinking. Exposure to opposing viewpoints builds cognitive flexibility. Speed is as much mental as it is physical. Ego and rigid beliefs limit learning and performance. Representativeness, ritual, and resilience Not all training must look like competition to have value. Ritual builds consistency and meaning in training. Resilience is a universal quality that transfers across contexts. Training should include experiences where the athlete loses and adapts. Simplify versus deconstruct in training Simplify first to preserve the integrity of the whole movement. Deconstruct only when specific limitations appear. Always return to full movement patterns after isolation. End sessions with success to reinforce confidence. Microdosing discomfort and daily resilience Small daily challenges build long term mental toughness. Discomfort activates the neural centers tied to willpower. Ritualized discomfort is more effective than occasional extremes. Resilience can be trained deliberately and safely. Comfort seeking and modern training challenges Humans naturally seek comfort when it is available. Modern environments require intentional exposure to challenge. Training should balance safety, stress, and adaptability. Long term growth comes from controlled adversity, not avoidance. Quotes from Kevin Secours “Motive matters more than method. The why has to be bigger than the how.” “Repetition does not make perfect. You can be perfectly bad at something.” “Every technique is like a snowflake. No two are the same.” “Resilience is the most universal commodity you have.” “The greatest relaxation comes from exhaustion.” “Training should not be trauma.” “If you quit midway, you are more likely to come back.” “We are comfort seekers.” About Kevin Secours Kevin Secours is a martial arts coach and author focused on practical skill development, resilience, and real-world application of movement and combat principles. Drawing from decades of training and coaching experience, his work bridges traditional martial arts, modern performance thinking, and personal development. Kevin is known for clear teaching, depth of insight, and an emphasis on adaptability, awareness, and lifelong practice.
Dr. Sina McCullough did everything “right.” She had a PhD in nutrition. She cooked from scratch. She bought organic. And still, her health fell apart. Autoimmune disease. Chronic infections. Miscarriages. Crushing fatigue. At her lowest point, she couldn't lift a cup to drink without her young son helping her. In this episode, Sina tells Ginny the moment she hit rock bottom and the prayer she prayed asking God for one more chance at life. What happened next is hard to explain away: off the floor in three days, pain-free in three months, disease-free in a year. And a promise she made to spend the rest of her life helping others find their second chance too. This conversation isn't about perfection or fear or doing everything. It's about clarity. Sina explains why food labels often give a false sense of security, why “gluten-free” and “organic” don't always mean what we think they do, and why healing can't be reduced to a sticker on a package. She and Ginny talk about getting outside as real medicine—breathing in microbial diversity, regulating the nervous system, letting nature do what it's always done best. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, confused, or quietly discouraged because you're trying so hard and still not feeling well, this episode will meet you where you are. No shame. No hype. Just hope, wisdom, and the reminder that your body and your life may be more resilient than you've been led to believe.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High achiever burnout often isn't about ambition — it's about safety. In this episode, Julie Holly unpacks why high performers can't stop pushing, and how identity-level recalibration restores belonging without exhaustion.Why do high-capacity humans keep pushing even when they're exhausted, successful, and aware it's costing them?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores the deeper truth behind compulsive drive — and why what looks like ambition is often self-protection shaped by early attachment patterns.For many high-capacity humans, pushing didn't start as ambition. It started as adaptation.Productivity became the fastest way to feel safeAchievement became the clearest path to attention or approvalResponsibility became a way to keep things steady for everyone elseExcellence became a form of emotional insuranceRest began to feel risky, indulgent, or vaguely unsafeOver time, the nervous system learned a quiet equation:If I keep producing, I stay connected. If I keep performing, I stay safe.That's why burnout often doesn't feel like collapse. It feels like:“I know I don't need to push this hard, but I can't stop.”Chronic decision fatigue even after successRole confusion once the pressure starts to easeSuccess without fulfillmentA low-grade fear that rest might cost you your placeDrawing from attachment theory, nervous system science, and identity psychology, Julie reframes compulsive striving without diagnosis or shame. This episode names what so many leaders quietly experience but rarely say out loud: the drive was never about ego — it was about belonging.This conversation sits at the emotional center of Week 9, Reclaiming Sacred Ambition, creating the conditions for drive to be reclaimed — not as fear-fueled striving, but as aligned, stewarded desire. Faith-forward but invitational, the episode gently reinforces a deeper truth:Safety and belonging were never meant to be earned.Micro Recalibration (today's practice):Quietly say to yourself:I don't have to earn my place. Notice what happens in your body. No fixing. No forcing. Just awareness.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

This week on Comics and Chronic we discuss Dark Horse's Helen of Wyndhorn by Tom King & art by Bilquis Evely & colors by Matheus Lopes. “Following the tragic death of her late father C.K. Cole, the esteemed pulp writer and creator of the popular warrior character Othan, Helen Cole is called back to her Grandfather's enormous and Illustrious estate, Wyndhorn House. Scarred by Cole's untimely passing and lost in a new, strange world, Helen wreaks drunken havoc upon her arrival. However, her chaotic ways begin to soften as she discovers a lifetime of secrets hiding within the myriad rooms and hallways of the expansive manor. For outside its walls, within the woods, dwell the legendary adventures that once were locked away within her father's stories.” But first, Cody gets into his onesie to prepare for the cold. Jake wants to see people struggle. Are we planning to cover Batman No Man's Land for Bat-March 2026. Little Women is a great comfort movie. Was the new Wicked a major step down? Cody confuses his Asian actresses; Jake doesn't fair much better. Does the story being told from a character's POV who wasn't involved in the adventures take away from it? How does this compare to Supergirl: Woman of Tomrorow? Who would we cast in a live-action version of this comic? Does this book show how fairy tales come to be passed on from word of mouth? Also RIP to Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa. Are Comics and Chronic going to start their own Black Label episodes? Do we want to see a sequel to this book? Is the art a perfect 6 but the story lacks?

Creativity through the lens of a visibility coach and podcast host,"I equate creativity to life energy."Anna Holtzman is a therapist-turned-visibility coach who helps sensitive creatives, healers, and entrepreneurs overcome the fear of being seen so they can share their voice and sustain their creative work—without burning out.Before coaching, Anna spent 15 years behind the scenes in publishing and reality TV editing, where she learned firsthand how easy it is to hide from visibility and how painful it feels when creative momentum fizzles. Chronic migraines and burnout eventually led her to mind-body medicine and the nervous system tools that helped her reclaim her own creative voice and start showing up consistently.Today, Anna draws on her background in both media and mental health to guide others through visibility wounds, imposter syndrome, and the nervous system blocks that keep them stuck. She is also the host of the podcast How to Trust Yourself, where she shares stories and tools for nervous-system-safe visibility. Anna lives in Queens, NY with her husband, stepdaughter, and three orange cats.www.annaholtzman.comSend us a text
We are living through the steepest decline in health ever recorded — and the numbers are impossible to ignore. • Chronic inflammation now impacts 3 in 5 adults • Autoimmune diseases have tripled • Anxiety, depression, and burnout are hitting people younger every year • Hormonal and metabolic disorders now appear 10–15 years earlier than past generations Yet the healthcare system is still built to treat symptoms, not repair the body. In this forward-thinking episode of Uncover Your Eyes with Dr. Meenal Agarwal, we explore one of today's most exciting areas in healthcare innovations: peptides and bioregulator peptides — emerging tools that may hold the key to better longevity, mental health, physical health, and overall wellness. Dr. Meenal sits down with Nathalie Niddam, Longevity Educator and leading voice in peptide science, for one of the most practical, eye-opening conversations of the year. Together, they break down what peptides actually are, how they work, and how they may help the body restore itself at a cellular level.
f you've been trying to heal for years and getting nowhere, the problem might not be the protocol - it might be the person doing it. In this video, I explain why the very act of "trying to heal" is often what keeps you sick. I explore the paradox that your Type A personality (the "Improver") uses healing tools to avoid feeling, which actually blocks your nervous system from finding safety. If you are exhausted from protocols, diets, and somatic exercises that don't stick, this shift in perspective might be the missing piece you've been looking for. Join the Release program to speed up your healing from ME/CFS, Chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, MCAS, Post-Vac and other chronic illnesses.
Legendary Life | Transform Your Body, Upgrade Your Health & Live Your Best Life
Most people don't actually want to live to 90 or 100. Not because they don't love life—but because they're afraid of what those extra years might look like. Loss of independence. Chronic pain. Medications. Watching their world slowly shrink. When people say, "I don't want to live that long," what they're really saying is, "I don't want to live like that." In the first episode of this new Year series, Ted reframes the entire conversation around aging. Instead of asking how long you'll live, he asks a more important question: How well will you live? Ted talks about healthspan—the years you remain strong, mobile, mentally sharp, and independent—and explains why it matters far more than lifespan alone. He also breaks down why so much age-related decline is driven by lifestyle, not genetics, why modern healthcare focuses on crisis instead of prevention, and which core pillars actually determine how you age. If you want 2026 to be the year you stop fearing the future and start building a body—and a life—that lasts, this is where the conversation begins. Listen now! You'll learn: How metabolic dysfunction silently accelerates aging The role of muscle, strength, and power in maintaining independence Why cardiovascular fitness and VO₂ max are strong predictors of longevity How visceral fat drives inflammation and chronic disease Why weight loss alone doesn't fix metabolic health What Ted discusses in this episode: (00:00) Introduction (02:00) The Reality of Aging and Healthcare (04:38) The Longevity Masterclass: Healthspan vs. Lifespan (14:32) The Importance of Metabolic Health (17:12) Muscle Strength and Power: Your Aging Insurance Policy (18:36) Heart Aging and VO2 Max (19:50) Brain Aging and Lifestyle Factors (21:45) Series Overview and Conclusion

In this episode of Heal Yourself, Change Your Life, Brandy Gillmore explores how subconscious emotional patterns can be directly linked to physical pain, inflammation, and unexplained symptoms—and how real healing begins at a deeper level of the mind. Brandy shares compelling research, including documented cases of multiple personality disorder (now called dissociative identity disorder), where an individual experiences different illnesses, symptoms, and even blindness in different personalities—despite having the same physical body. These findings offer powerful evidence of the mind-body connection and show how quickly the body can change when subconscious programming shifts. In a live coaching session, Brandy works with Tracey, a volunteer experiencing migrating foot pain, jaw pain, burning sensations, and inflammation that doctors have been unable to explain, even with MRIs. As the session unfolds, Brandy helps Tracey identify suppressed emotional patterns related to relationships, control, and unmet emotional needs that have been stored in her subconscious mind. You'll Discover: How it's possible for chronic pain to move or flare without a clear medical cause How suppressed emotions can remain active even when you "feel fine" Why positivity, meditation, affirmations, and mindset work may not be enough How subconscious relationship patterns can affect both emotional and physical health What true emotional transformation looks like at the mind-body level As Tracy's awareness shifts, listeners witness her experience real-time reductions in pain and burning, demonstrating how emotional healing can support physical change when addressed at the subconscious level. This episode is especially valuable for anyone experiencing: Chronic pain or unexplained symptoms Autoimmune flare-ups linked to stress or relationships Repeating relationship patterns that feel painful or confusing A sense of feeling unloved, disconnected, or emotionally stuck Frustration after trying meditation, mindset work, or holistic approaches without lasting results This episode offers education, insight, and hope, showing how healing becomes possible when emotional patterns are transformed—not suppressed. Do you want to see proof of the power of the mind in a medical journal? Here's a demonstration of Brandy Gillmore working with volunteers under medical equipment, as featured in a medical journal.

It is not about dominance, charisma, or external power. At its core, it is about internal authority, emotional containment, and the ability to create order without force. When this aspect is healthy, a man becomes steady, principled, and trustworthy. When it is underdeveloped or wounded, chaos follows—internally first, then externally. Many men between 35 and 55 find themselves facing a quiet but persistent erosion of authority. Not authority over others, but authority over their own energy, emotions, direction, and decisions. Life may look successful on the surface, yet something feels disordered underneath. This is often not a motivation problem or a discipline issue. It is a mature masculinity issue. This aspect governs vision, boundaries, blessing, and stewardship. Without it, other aspects lose coherence. Strength becomes aggression. Intelligence becomes manipulation. Sensitivity becomes indulgence. The work of conscious masculinity begins by restoring this. Understanding this Concept as an Identity Structure This is not a personality trait. It is an identity structure that shapes how a man relates to himself, his emotions, his responsibilities, and the world around him. A mature individual does not chase validation or prove worth. He defines standards and lives by them. At its highest expression, the king archetype provides: Internal order that calms the nervous system Emotional containment without suppression Clear boundaries rooted in values The ability to bless rather than dominate Long-term vision rather than reactive urgency When this archetype is absent or distorted, men often compensate with overwork, control, avoidance, or perpetual striving. These behaviors look productive but are internally unstable. The king archetype does not push harder. It stabilizes first. The Developmental Path of the King Archetype The king archetype does not arrive fully formed. It develops through stages, each with its own risks and lessons. Understanding this spectrum helps men recognize where they are stuck and what must be integrated. The Boy King: Power Without Containment The Boy King represents uninitiated authority. This is power without emotional maturity, vision without wisdom, and ambition without grounding. The Boy King may appear confident, driven, and decisive, but his authority is brittle. Common patterns of the Boy King include: Needing approval to feel legitimate Overreacting to perceived disrespect Making decisions based on ego rather than values Seeking status instead of stewardship The Boy King does not lack intelligence or drive. He lacks containment. Without guidance and inner structure, his rule becomes unstable. Many men unknowingly operate from this stage well into midlife, wondering why their efforts never produce lasting peace. The Wounded King: Tyrant and Abdicator When the Boy King is challenged by life and lacks the internal resources to integrate those challenges, the king archetype fractures. This produces the Wounded King, which tends to manifest in two primary forms. The Tyrant King rules through control. He tightens boundaries into walls, mistakes fear for authority, and uses force to manage internal insecurity. Emotionally, he is reactive and rigid. Relationally, he creates compliance but not trust. The Abdicated King retreats. He avoids responsibility, numbs discomfort, and disengages from leadership altogether. Decisions are delayed. Boundaries dissolve. Chaos fills the vacuum where authority once belonged. Both expressions are rooted in the same wound: the inability to self-regulate and self-authorize. The king archetype is present, but distorted by unresolved fear and fatigue. The Integrated King: Calm Authority and Inner Order The Integrated King is not loud. He does not dominate rooms or demand attention. His presence organizes the environment naturally. Others feel calmer, clearer, and more grounded around him. This stage of the king archetype is defined by: Emotional regulation without repression Clear boundaries that protect energy and values Decisiveness without urgency The ability to bless growth in others A long-term view rooted in legacy rather than ego The Integrated King does not need to prove authority because it is embodied. His power comes from alignment, not performance. Why the King Archetype Must Come First In conscious masculine development, this aspect precedes all others. Without it, the Warrior burns out, the Magician manipulates, and the Lover loses direction. It provides the internal throne from which the other energies can operate cleanly. Men often attempt to fix their lives by adding tools, habits, or discipline. These strategies fail when there is no internal authority governing their use. The king archetype is the structure that ensures effort serves purpose rather than exhaustion. When a man integrates the king archetype, his nervous system settles. Decision-making simplifies. Emotional reactivity decreases. Life feels governed rather than chaotic. The King Archetype and the Conscious Warrior Path Within the Conscious Warrior framework, the king archetype represents alignment. It is the internal axis that brings physical discipline, mental clarity, emotional regulation, and spiritual meaning into coherence. A conscious king does not escape discomfort. He contains it. He does not suppress emotion. He governs it. He does not outsource authority to circumstances, people, or outcomes. He leads himself first. This is the difference between coping and ruling. The King Archetype and the Nervous System At a biological level, this aspect expresses itself through regulation. A regulated nervous system is the physiological foundation of calm authority. When a man is internally regulated, his presence naturally stabilizes others. When he is dysregulated, authority collapses into control, withdrawal, or chaos. Many expressions of the wounded king archetype are not moral failures but nervous system failures. Chronic stress, unresolved emotional load, and constant reactivity push men into survival states. From there, the Tyrant King emerges through fight responses, while the Abdicated King emerges through freeze or collapse. Neither state allows access to mature authority. The Integrated King operates from regulation. Breath slows. Perspective widens. Decisions are made without urgency. Emotional energy is contained rather than leaked. This is why true authority feels calm rather than forceful. The nervous system sets the tone before any words are spoken. Restoring the king archetype therefore requires practices that support regulation: pauses instead of pressure, containment instead of discharge, and recovery instead of constant output. Authority begins in the body before it ever reaches behavior. The King Archetype in Relationships and Family Systems In relationships and family systems, the king archetype functions as a stabilizing presence. This does not mean emotional distance or dominance. It means emotional safety. When the king archetype is integrated, others feel held rather than managed. A wounded king archetype often creates instability at home. The Tyrant King produces tension through control and rigidity. The Abdicated King produces insecurity through absence and inconsistency. In both cases, emotional safety erodes because authority is either overwhelming or missing. The Integrated King brings coherence. Boundaries are clear without being harsh. Decisions are made without emotional volatility. Conflict is addressed without escalation. Over time, trust builds because the environment feels predictable and grounded. For men in midlife, relational strain is often a signal that this aspect needs attention. Repairing authority at home does not start with communication techniques. It starts with restoring internal order so presence becomes trustworthy again. The King Archetype and Legacy Thinking This aspect is oriented toward legacy rather than immediacy. Where wounded expressions chase control or comfort, the Integrated version thinks in timelines. Decisions are evaluated not only for short-term relief but for long-term consequence. Legacy thinking shifts behavior. Time is treated as sacred. Energy is stewarded rather than spent. Priorities align with values instead of urgency. This is why the king archetype often awakens during midlife. The question quietly emerges: what am I building, and what will remain? A man aligned with the king archetype lives as if his actions matter beyond the moment. This does not require fame or recognition. It requires integrity. The Integrated King understands that legacy is not what is left behind, but what is lived consistently. When legacy becomes the lens, chaos loses its grip. Life organizes itself around meaning rather than momentum. Within the Conscious Warrior framework, the king archetype represents alignment. It is the internal axis that brings physical discipline, mental clarity, emotional regulation, and spiritual meaning into coherence. A conscious king does not escape discomfort. He contains it. He does not suppress emotion. He governs it. He does not outsource authority to circumstances, people, or outcomes. He leads himself first. This is the difference between coping and ruling. Common Signs the King Archetype Is Underdeveloped Men rarely identify this issue directly. Instead, it shows up through patterns such as: Chronic mental fatigue despite competence Difficulty setting or maintaining boundaries Over-identification with productivity Emotional withdrawal or volatility A sense of being busy but misaligned These are not failures of willpower. They are signals that this aspect needs attention and integration. Reclaiming the King Archetype Reclaiming this aspect is not about adopting dominance or authority over others. It is about restoring internal order. This work requires reflection, containment practices, and identity-level recalibration. Men who step into the Integrated King experience a shift from effort to embodiment. They stop managing chaos and begin governing their lives. This is not a quick fix. It is a developmental return to rightful authority. Frequently Asked Questions About the King Archetype What is the king archetype in men? The king archetype is the psychological pattern responsible for internal authority, order, and stewardship. It governs emotional containment, decision-making, boundaries, and long-term vision. When healthy, it creates calm leadership; when wounded, it produces control or disengagement. This archetype is foundational to mature masculinity and conscious self-leadership. How do I know if my king archetype is wounded? A wounded king archetype often shows up as chronic fatigue, emotional reactivity, boundary issues, or a sense of internal chaos despite external success. Men may swing between overcontrol and avoidance. These patterns indicate that authority is being forced or abandoned rather than embodied. Can the king archetype be developed later in life? Yes. The king archetype is developmental, not age-dependent. Many men do not integrate it until midlife challenges force reflection. With intentional inner work, emotional regulation, and identity restructuring, the king archetype can be stabilized and embodied at any stage. How does coaching help with integrating the king archetype? Coaching provides structured containment and perspective that mirrors the king archetype itself. Through coaching, men learn to self-regulate, clarify values, set boundaries, and reclaim internal authority. Rather than giving advice, effective coaching helps men restore their own capacity to govern their lives consciously. Why is the king archetype important for modern men? Modern life fragments authority through constant demands, distractions, and external pressures. The king archetype restores internal order, allowing men to respond rather than react. It creates stability in relationships, clarity in purpose, and resilience under pressure, making it essential for conscious masculine development. Final Reflection The king archetype is not about ruling others. It is about ruling oneself with clarity, steadiness, and integrity. When this archetype is integrated, life stops feeling reactive and starts feeling governed. Understanding the King Archetype is essential to navigate the complexities of modern masculinity and to develop a healthy sense of self-leadership. If you are ready to restore internal authority and step into conscious leadership, begin with the foundation. The path forward starts with the King Archetype.

A Parenting Resource for Children’s Behavior and Mental Health
Many bright kids struggle daily in school, and it's not because of laziness or lack of effort. The real reason your child is struggling in school is often a dysregulated nervous system. I'll show you how Regulation First Parenting™ strategies help kids calm, focus, and thrive.Every parent knows the sinking feeling when homework, tests, or transitions turn your child's school day into a battle. It's tempting to think the problem is effort, attitude, or ability—but the truth is, learning, focus, and motivation depend on regulation. When a child's nervous system is overstimulated or under stimulated, even the brightest students can struggle academically.In this episode, I break down why kids across all ages—from preschoolers to college students—face learning challenges, and how parents can partner with schools and use evidence-based strategies to unlock their child's full potential.Why does my child melt down over schoolwork or transitions?Many children experience sensory or emotional overload, leading to meltdowns, avoidance, or shutdowns. Younger kids often face developmentally inappropriate expectations or tasks that feel too big, which triggers fight, flight, or freeze responses.Recognizing that every child has different learning styles is key, because what feels overwhelming to one child may feel manageable to another. Understanding your child's learning process helps you tailor support and maintain progress in their child's education, whether during the regular school year or even summer school.Tips for parents:Break tasks into manageable steps and offer sensory breaks.Validate your child's feelings: “I see this is overwhelming, let's take a minute.”Incorporate short nervous system resets, like deep breathing, gentle movement, or butterfly tapping.Real-Life ScenarioA preschooler refuses to start writing. Using a 3-minute reset and offering a small, achievable writing goal helps her calm and complete the activity.How can I help my middle or high schooler stay motivated?Middle and high school kids face growing demands on executive functioning—planning, organizing, and emotional regulation—all while managing increased homework, quizzes, and tests.Chronic stress can lead to procrastination, anxiety, or perfectionism, even in academically strong students.Tips for parents:Request a team meeting with teachers, guidance counselors, or case managers.Identify simple classroom supports, like sensory breaks or visual schedules.Encourage small, consistent self-regulation practices daily.

When Jennifer was asked how she felt getting her cancer diagnosis, her first word was not "scared," it was "shame." If you have ever felt like your emotions are too much, or you started processing feelings only to end up in pain, fatigue, or shutdown, this second part of our emotional expression series is for you. In part two of this essential two-part series on emotional health and post-traumatic growth, Co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof (founder of BrainBased.com) and Jennifer Wallace (Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide) are joined again by Applied Neurology Expert and NSI Educator, Matt Bush of Next Level Neuro. Building on Part 1's conversation about anger, they explore how grief, shame, and positive emotions show up in the nervous system. You will hear real client stories where simple drills or balance work brought repressed emotions to the surface, why grief can feel like "phantom limb pain" for the brain, and how shame is intertwined with freeze responses and the inner critic. The trio shares minimum-effective-dose practices for grief, anger, and even joy, so emotional expression becomes regulating instead of destabilizing and opens the door to genuine post-traumatic growth. Timestamps: 00:00 — Diagnosis, shame and "too much" emotion 06:40 — When drills and bodywork unexpectedly unleash rage or tears 16:20 — Emotional expression that leads to pain, migraines or shutdown 24:45 — Grief as "phantom limb pain" and how loss impacts the body 35:10 — Chronic pain, bracing patterns and emotional repression 44:30 — Shame, freeze and the inner critic's "always and forever" story 58:00 — Minimum-effective-dose grief work and nature as co-regulator 1:09:30 — Making joy, pleasure and intimacy safe for the nervous system 1:19:30 — Daily neurosomatic practice, post-traumatic growth and closing reflections Key Takeaways: Emotional expression can bring on protective outputs like pain, fatigue, inflammation or shutdown when the body does not yet feel safe. Grief often functions like phantom limb pain: the brain must remap after a loss, which can show up in mood, immunity and body sensations. Shame and freeze are tightly linked; the inner critic's absolute "I am / I'll never" language reflects threat perception, not truth. Minimum-effective-dose practices for anger and grief, wrapped in front- and back-end regulation tools, help the nervous system learn that expression is safe. Positive emotions such as joy, pleasure and intimacy can also feel threatening and benefit from being approached in small, titrated doses that build capacity.

If you've ever felt like you need a specific diet, program, supplement, or piece of equipment to get results, this episode is for you.In today's Red Delta Project live Q&A, I break down one of the biggest “progress traps” in fitness: dependence. The more you rely on external systems, validation, products, or ideologies, the less freedom and control you actually have… and the more likely you are to stay stuck in the fitness rat race.Then we roll straight into Q&A on elbow tendonitis from high-volume pullups, building muscle at calorie maintenance, how tempo and pauses affect hypertrophy, sissy squats, shoulder pain workarounds, autophagy hype, TRT expectations, chronic injury strategy, and more.
Research from Columbia University shows that psychological stress changes a key metabolic hormone, linking emotional strain directly to energy production and overall health People with healthy mitochondria experience a drop in this hormone under stress, while those with mitochondrial dysfunction show an increase — demonstrating how cellular energy capacity shapes stress resilience Chronic stress overstimulates classic stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, disrupting blood sugar control, promoting fat storage, and exhausting your mitochondria — the engines that power every cell Social isolation and loneliness were linked to higher levels of stress-related hormones, suggesting that emotional well-being and physical metabolism are deeply connected Restoring mitochondrial balance through nutrition, regular movement, deep sleep, and meaningful connection helps calm stress chemistry, boost energy, and slow biological aging
