She reflects on the emotional strength required to face the daily challenges posed by OI, from navigating social situations to advocating for her needs. Notably, she has even started her own graphic design and art business, showcasing her creativity and determination to thrive despite the limitations imposed by her condition. Her story serves as an inspiring reminder of the power of the human spirit and the possibilities that can emerge from adversity.Join us for this heartfelt conversation, where you'll gain a deeper understanding of what it truly means to live with Osteogenesis Imperfecta and discover the strength and resilience that individuals like Katherine embody as they navigate their unique challenges.Who is Katherine Klimitas?Katherine Klimitas is a New Orleans-based artist and designer who sold her first watercolor at age 10.

In this episode of The Lisa Fischer Said Podcast, Lisa Fischer sits down with Reed Davis, founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN), to challenge everything you think you know about functional medicine and "root cause" healing. Reed shares his journey from environmental law to health detective, explains why symptoms are not the problem—but signals of deeper metabolic chaos—and breaks down his HIDDEN and D.R.E.S.S. frameworks for restoring health without drugs. They dive into functional lab testing, supplement skepticism, thyroid disorders, chronic fatigue, hives, ADHD, environmental toxins, and why personalized, upstream investigation matters more than diagnoses. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone frustrated with normal labs, endless prescriptions, or one-size-fits-all wellness advice.     WEBSITE: https://www.functionaldiagnosticnutrition.com/     INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/fdntraining/     FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/FunctionalDiagnosticNutrition/     YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7xDnEKCe9gKeWZ2vbE3C8w     EPISODE SPONSOR:  https://www.ralstonfamilyfarms.com/     EPISODE SPONSOR:  https://www.akelscarpetone.com/     EPISODE SPONSOR:  https://www.davidsburgers.com/     LISA'S LINKS:     Lisa Fischer Said Academy:  https://lisafischersaid.com/academy/     Website:  lisafischersaid.com     For more information on group intermittent fasting  coaching with Lisa, email fasting@lisafischersaid.com     For more information on one-on-one or group health coaching with Lisa, email healthcoaching@lisafischersaid.com     Podcast produced by clantoncreative.com    

Erik Dane on ALS, Disability Visibility, and Refusing to Give Up Erik Dane—forever remembered by many as “McSteamy” from Grey's Anatomy—has lived much of his career in the spotlight. From blockbuster films to hit television shows, and more recently capturing a new generation on Euphoria, his career has continued to evolve. But in April 2025, at the height of renewed success, Dane was diagnosed with ALS—a devastating disease with no cure. Now using a wheelchair, Erik Dane is still acting, still creating, and still showing up. He recently appeared on Brilliant Minds and participated in a powerful media panel discussing the role, disability visibility, and what it means to continue working in an industry that rarely makes space for visible illness. We bring you that panel—and the conversation it sparked. As we look ahead to the new year, Erik Dane's story is a profound reminder of two essential truths: nothing matters more than your health, and even when your body isn't cooperating, your dreams don't have to end.

Fluent Fiction - Hebrew: Candles of Connection: Love and Vulnerability in Tel Aviv Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/he/episode/2025-12-29-23-34-02-he Story Transcript:He: בין קירות הדירה הצבעונית בתל אביב, יצירות האמנות של ליאור סיפרו סיפורים של תקווה, אהבה, וכאב.En: Between the walls of the colorful apartment in Tel Aviv, Lior's artwork told stories of hope, love, and pain.He: האור הרך של נרות חנוכה החזיר חום לחורף הקר של העיר.En: The soft light from the candles of Hanukkah brought warmth back to the city's cold winter.He: ליאור ישבה על הספה, מביטה מחלון ומחשבת את התפנית שחייה קיבלו לאחרונה.En: Lior sat on the couch, gazing out the window and reflecting on the recent turn her life had taken.He: אבחנת המחלה הכרונית הגיעה בדיוק כשהיא ורבקה, בת זוגה, תכננו לפגוש אחת את השנייה ברגעים החשובים של חייהן.En: The diagnosis of a chronic illness came just as she and Rivka, her partner, had planned to be there for each other's important life moments.He: רבקה, הייתה בניו יורק.En: Rivka was in New York.He: רחוק, אך קרוב ללב.En: Far away, yet close to the heart.He: היא עסוקה בעבודתה בפיננסים, אך תמיד דואגת להקדיש זמן לליאור.En: She was busy with her work in finance, but always made sure to dedicate time to Lior.He: "את צריכה לדבר איתה," אמר לה יואב, חבר הילדות שלה, בעודו נעמד בדירה עם ספל שוקו חם.En: "You need to talk to her," said Yoav, her childhood friend, while standing in the apartment with a cup of hot chocolate.He: ליאור הביטה בו "אני לא רוצה להיות נטל," השיבה בקול שקט.En: Lior looked at him, "I don't want to be a burden," she replied quietly.He: אבל בעומק ליבה, ליאור ידעה שיואב צודק.En: But deep inside, Lior knew that Yoav was right.He: אהבה אמיתית דורשת כנות.En: True love demands honesty.He: בערב האחרון של חנוכה, ליאור חיכתה לקול של רבקה מעבר למסך.En: On the last evening of Hanukkah, Lior waited for Rivka's voice from across the screen.He: "אני כאן," אמרה רבקה בקולה הרך והמחבק.En: "I'm here," Rivka said in her soft and embracing voice.He: החדר נמלא באור מהנרות שהדליקה, כל נר כמו כוכב מנצנץ של תקווה.En: The room filled with light from the candles she lit, each candle like a twinkling star of hope.He: "ליאור, מה קרה?En: "Lior, what's wrong?"He: " שאלה רבקה והביטה בעיניה דרך המסך, מרגישה את המרחק שהיא לא יכולה לחוש.En: asked Rivka, looking into her eyes through the screen, feeling the distance she couldn't quite grasp.He: ליאור לקחה נשימה ארוכה והחלה לדבר.En: Lior took a deep breath and began to speak.He: "יש לי משהו חשוב לומר לך," היא החלה.En: "I have something important to tell you," she started.He: היא דיברה על המחלה, על הפחדים שלה, ועל החשש להפוך לנטל בחייה של רבקה.En: She spoke about the illness, her fears, and her concern about becoming a burden in Rivka's life.He: כמו קסם, הפחד היטשטש כאשר רבקה חייכה.En: Like magic, the fear faded when Rivka smiled.He: "אנחנו צוות," אמרה לה.En: "We're a team," she told her.He: "אני אגיע לבקר יותר.En: "I will visit more.He: נמצא דרך ביחד.En: We'll find a way together."He: "האור מנרות החנוכה התפשט בחדר, וליאור ידעה שהאהבה לאו דווקא נמדדת במרחק, אלא ברגש, בכנות ובתמיכה הדדית.En: The light from the candles of Hanukkah spread through the room, and Lior realized that love is not necessarily measured by distance, but by feeling, honesty, and mutual support.He: היא למדה שסוד האהבה טמון בשותפות וביכולת לבטוח.En: She learned that the secret of love lies in partnership and the ability to trust.He: מאותו לילה, ליאור הבינה את חשיבות הפגיעות ואת הכוח שיש בנכונות לשתף ולהאמין באנשים שאוהבים אותך.En: From that night on, Lior understood the importance of vulnerability and the power in the willingness to share and believe in those who love you.He: בסופו של דבר, גם אם המרחק ביניהם נשאר, ליבם היה קרוב מתמיד.En: In the end, even if the distance between them remained, their hearts were closer than ever.

The journey of entrepreneurship can often feel at odds with the realities of living with chronic illness, particularly when it comes to the concept of capacity. In this episode, we tackle the often-misunderstood idea of capacity, shifting the narrative from a relentless push for more to a compassionate understanding of what we can realistically manage. Capacity isn't just about productivity; it's about how much our bodies and minds can handle at any given moment, especially when faced with the unpredictable nature of chronic health issues. We explore the three primary forms of capacity that influence our entrepreneurial experience: emotional, cognitive, and energetic. Emotional capacity is crucial for handling the stress of marketing and visibility, particularly for those of us who may struggle with the expectations of always being “on.” Cognitive capacity reflects our ability to think and make decisions, which can be severely impacted by the demands of content creation and the fast-paced nature of social media. Lastly, energetic capacity speaks to the physical and sensory energy we can muster, which is often the most variable due to chronic health conditions. This episode emphasizes the importance of creating business systems that align with our current capacity rather than pushing us to meet unrealistic expectations. By focusing on long-form content, such as podcasting, we can share our stories and connect with our audience without the stress of constant output. The key takeaway is that our capacity is not the enemy; instead, it's our perceptions and business practices that need to adapt to honor our humanity. This understanding fosters a more sustainable approach to entrepreneurship, allowing us to thrive not despite our chronic illnesses but alongside them.Takeaways:Understanding capacity in business is not about doing more, but about what your nervous system can handle.Marketing strategies need to reflect the reality of fluctuating capacities, especially for those with chronic illnesses.Creating a business model that honors your humanity can lead to sustainable success without burnout.Podcasting serves as a capacity-aware marketing tool, reducing stress while allowing for authentic connection.✨ Thank you for listening.Here's how to connect with Nikita, your host:→ Book A Sales Call Here→ Grab your Free Curated Podcast for Business Growth Playlist→ Grab the Podcast Planner + App to start and grow your podcast with ease.→ Grab Your Free 5-Day Private Podcast Series to Help You Make Sales with Ease with Long-Form Content and Nervous-System-Friendly Marketing Strategies for Women with Chronic Illness & Burnt-Out Entrepreneurs.⭐ Loved this episode?

In this episode of the Let's Go Win Podcast, JM sits down with Dr. Nathan Bryan, one of the world's leading experts on nitric oxide, to unpack why this tiny gas molecule may be the most overlooked driver of long term health, performance, and aging. Discovered as a signaling molecule only a few decades ago and recognized with a Nobel Prize, nitric oxide quietly regulates blood flow, inflammation, mitochondrial function, and immune balance. Dr. Bryan explains why the loss of nitric oxide production is now considered the earliest event in many chronic diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, neurodegeneration, autoimmune conditions, and poor wound healing. Together, they explore what destroys nitric oxide in modern life, what daily habits restore it, and how small changes in breathing, diet, oral care, movement, and sleep can create outsized improvements in energy, cognition, vascular health, and recovery. Key takeaways: Why nitric oxide is a root level regulator of cardiovascular, metabolic, immune, and mitochondrial health How reduced nitric oxide production is linked to nearly every age related chronic diseaseThe surprising role of the oral microbiome in nitric oxide production and systemic health Why antiseptic mouthwash, excess sugar, fluoride exposure, and chronic antacid use can sabotage nitric oxide pathways How nasal breathing directly increases nitric oxide and improves oxygen delivery The impact of intermittent fasting and blood sugar control on vascular and mitochondrial function Which daily habits reliably stimulate nitric oxide production through natural mechanisms What to know about beet products, supplements, and nitric oxide delivery methods that actually work How restoring nitric oxide can translate into better blood pressure, energy, sleep, healing, and cognitive clarity Why lifestyle based nitric oxide support may outperform many pharmaceutical approaches for prevention and longevity This episode is for anyone who cares about aging well, preventing chronic disease, improving performance, or taking ownership of their health beyond symptom chasing. If you are a high performer dealing with fatigue, inflammation, poor recovery, brain fog, blood pressure issues, or metabolic challenges, this conversation will give you a new lens on what might be missing. You will walk away with a practical checklist you can apply immediately, a deeper understanding of how your daily habits either block or support your body's natural healing systems, and a science backed framework for improving health from the ground up. This is not about biohacking trends. It is about restoring a fundamental biological signal your body depends on to thrive. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Jason Gilley walked into adulthood with a fastball, a college roster spot, and a head of curls that deserved its own agent. Cancer crashed that party and took him on a tour of chemo chairs, pediatric wards, metal taste, numb legs, PTSD, and the kind of late night panic that rewires a kid before he even knows who he is.I sat with him in the studio and heard a story I know in my bones. He grew up fast. He learned how to stare down mortality at nineteen. He found anchors in baseball, therapy, and the strange friendships cancer hands you when it tears your plans apart. He owns the fear and the humor without slogans or shortcuts. Listeners will meet a young man who refuses to let cancer shrink his world. He fights for the life he wants. He names the truth without apology. He reminds us that survivorship stays messy and sacred at the same time. This conversation will stay with you.RELATED LINKS• Jason Gilley on IG• Athletek Baseball Podcast• EMDR information• Children's Healthcare of AtlantaFEEDBACKLike this episode?

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio, presented by The Trek, I'm sitting this one out because it's the fourth edition of Girl's Stuff. Chaunce is joined by former guest Christine Reed and BPR first-timer Maggie Schoemann.

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. Today's conversation is with Kim and Holly from CFT Global, the leaders carrying forward Craniosacral Fascial Therapy, a modality that blends craniosacral therapy, myofascial release, and oral-structural work into one unified system.We explore why fascia is not just connective tissue, but an intelligent communication network that holds tension, trauma, and adaptation patterns. From infants struggling after birth, to adults with migraines, brain fog, concussions, and chronic stress, CFT works by restoring movement—movement of the cranial bones, movement of cerebrospinal fluid, and movement of the nervous system back toward safety.What struck me most is this: CFT doesn't force the body to heal. It listens. By following the body's innate wisdom, the nervous system shifts into parasympathetic regulation, allowing digestion, detoxification, emotional processing, and cognition to improve naturally. This episode is a deep dive into why healing is not about doing more, but about creating the conditions where the body can finally do what it already knows how to do.Episode Highlights[00:00] – Craniosynostosis, infant skulls, and why cranial plates must move for brain growth[02:16] – What Craniosacral Fascial Therapy actually is (and how it's different from CST)[04:11] – Cognitive clarity, emotional shifts, and whole-body effects of fascial release[06:34] – The origins of CFT: osteopathy, myofascial release, and oral structures[08:29] – Why head pressure persists even when labs “look normal”[10:12] – Tongue ties, airway dysfunction, and the overlooked craniodental system[13:29] – Weston Price, epigenetics, and how modern environments reshape facial structure[17:27] – Why releasing a tongue tie without bodywork can create new problems[23:10] – Are cranial bones really fused? Debunking a long-held medical myth[25:48] – Understanding the “brain cycle” and what zero brain motion means[31:23] – Vagus nerve regulation and parasympathetic healing through CFT[39:41] – Fascia as an organ system and what dissection reveals about the body[41:36] – Adhesions, scars, and how gentle work restores visceral movement[47:26] – Concussions, CTE, and why unresolved cranial strain matters long-term[50:57] – Why CFT is still unknown—and why that's starting to change[01:01:36] – Emotional releases, stored trauma, and the body's ability to unwind[01:04:34] – What infants teach us about nervous system regulation (no placebo required)Links & ResourcesCFT Global Website & Trainings: https://craniosacralfascialtherapy.comKim and Holly's  Instagram: @cftgillespieapproachBeam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybrokenCathcBio https://www.catchbio.com/beautifullybroken— Code: beautifullybrokenStemRegn: https://www.stemregen.co/products/release?_ef_transaction_id=&affid=52&oid=1— Code: beautifullybroken   CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dr. Marissa Russo trained to become a cancer biologist. She spent four years studying one of the deadliest brain tumors in adults and built her entire research career around a simple, urgent goal: open her own lab and improve the odds for patients with almost no shot at survival. In 2024 she applied for an F31 diversity grant through the NIH. The reviewers liked her work. Her resubmission was strong. Then the grant system started glitching. Dates vanished. Study sections disappeared. Emails went silent. When she finally reached a program officer, the message was clear: scrub the DEI language, withdraw, and resubmit. She rewrote the application in ten days. It failed. She had to start over. Again. This time with her identity erased.Marissa left the lab. She found new purpose as a science communicator, working at STAT News through the AAAS Mass Media Fellowship. Her story captures what happens when talent collides with institutional sabotage. Not every scientist gets to choose a Plan B. She made hers count.RELATED LINKSMarissa Russo at STAT NewsNIH F31 grant story in STATAAAS Mass Media FellowshipContact Marissa RussoFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Breaking down ten shifts that change life with chronic illness by addressing symptoms, flare-ups, fear, and the emotional patterns the body responds to, helping you stop managing illness and start understanding what's actually driving it.Find the Emotional Connections to Your Diagnosis HERE!

In this episode, we speak with Rebecca Heimsoth, a young mother and survivor of myelodysplastic syndrome who underwent a bone marrow transplant in April 2022. Diagnosed shortly after turning 33, Rebecca shares her deeply personal journey of navigating transplant recovery, chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and parenting two small children. Her story is one of resilience, support, and a constant fight to reclaim her life after cancer.We begin by learning how Rebecca's transplant process unfolded with the support of her family. Her mother stepped in as her full-time caregiver while she temporarily relocated over an hour away from home for five months, separated from her children. Her youngest sister was a full match donor, which initially reduced concern for GVHD—until lung GVHD symptoms appeared five months post-transplant. This diagnosis triggered new fears, especially around survival, and marked the beginning of her chronic GVHD journey, which later expanded to include fascia involvement. Rebecca explains the physical and emotional toll—early menopause, chronic fatigue, cognitive effects, and mobility challenges.We discuss how she manages flare-ups with physical therapy, walking, stretching, and even cupping. Despite the physical setbacks, Rebecca remains actively involved with her family, thanks to a flexible job, long-term disability support, and a strong support system. Her husband takes on parenting duties when her health dips, and her kids have learned small routines to help protect her from illness, such as wearing masks and showering after school. These steps, while difficult, have helped them all cope as a unit.Rebecca also opens up about the mental health side of survivorship—dealing with PTSD, depression, and a sense of loss over her former self. She credits her psychologist, psychiatrist, and peer support groups as vital tools for managing the psychological weight. Online and in-person GVHD groups have connected her to other young adults navigating similar terrain, helping her feel less alone.Despite not returning to her full-time career, Rebecca is finding meaning in her part-time work and family life. Her goals have shifted—from professional advancement to simply watching her kids grow up. Whether it's family vacations or bedtime snuggles, she cherishes these moments. Her ultimate aim is to be present for her daughter's high school graduation in 2037. Every step forward, no matter how small, is part of the victory.Want to connect with a Young Adult Survivor Group?

In this episode, we speak with Synary Be, a resilient survivor of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), who shares her powerful journey of enduring three bone marrow transplants over eight years. Diagnosed suddenly in March 2017, Synary's story begins with a high fever that led to a shocking diagnosis: 93% leukemia. From that point on, her life transformed into a series of hospital stays, treatments, and moments that tested her strength and spirit.We learn how her first transplant involved two umbilical cord donors, one from the U.S. and another from Singapore. When that failed to graft, her younger brother flew from Australia to donate for her second transplant—a 50% match. After two years in remission, she relapsed again and required a third transplant, this time from her older brother, right in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. With travel restrictions in place, the donor cells had to be processed remotely and shipped to Stanford, showcasing the remarkable role of medical technology in saving lives.Despite being given only a 50% chance of survival for her third transplant, Synary put her trust in her doctors. Though she relapsed again, she now maintains remission through chemo pills. With no long-term data available for this new medication, she continues treatment cautiously and with optimism, trusting in the advancement of medicine.Synary spends some time opening up about the chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) that followed her transplants. She explains its impact on her lungs, eyes, mouth, nails, and skin, detailing both the physical symptoms and the treatments that have helped her reclaim daily life. From scleral lenses to serum tears, to pulmonary rehab and steroid creams, she educates us on the challenges and management of GVHD.Beyond the physical toll, Synary discusses the mental health struggles tied to long-term illness—particularly anxiety from repeated hospitalizations. She emphasizes the importance of therapy, meditation, support groups, and the courage to seek help. Her words serve as a reminder that managing chronic illness includes caring for both mind and body.Synary's story wouldn't be complete without acknowledging her support system. Her husband, who acted as her full-time caregiver through 300 cumulative days of hospitalization, and her three children, endured major sacrifices. Friends and community support filled in the gaps, underscoring that no one should navigate transplant recovery alone.Even in the face of isolation, fatigue, and anxiety, Synary finds joy in simple pleasures: watching Christmas movies, going for walks, and spending time with family. Her message is clear—life is still good. And GVHD, while challenging, cannot take away her joy.Calm App — https://www.calm.comThanks to our Season 19 sponsors, Incyte and Sanofi.https://incyte.com/https://www.sanofi.com/en00:40 - Introduction to Synary Be01:20 - AML Diagnosis and First Transplant03:10 - Transplants and Donor Challenges04:06 - Relapses and Chemo Maintenance06:44 - Living with GVHD12:15 - GVHD Symptoms and Treatments13:40 - Support System and Caregiving15:34 - Isolation After Transplants16:38 - Mental Health & Anxiety19:03 - Coping and Finding Joy20:36 - Final Thoughts and Message of Hope National Bone Marrow Transplant Link - (800) LINK-BMT, or (800) 546-5268.nbmtLINK Website: https://www.nbmtlink.org/nbmtLINK Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/nbmtLINKFollow the nbmtLINK on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/nbmtlink/The nbmtLINK YouTube Page can be found by clicking here.To participate in the GVHD Mosaic, click here: https://amp.livemosaics.com/gvhd Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I used to believe my body was broken. Chronic illness (ME/CFS) felt like proof that it was failing me. In this episode, I explore a completely different perspective: what if your body is always listening, always doing its best to keep you safe, and it's actually us who stopped trusting it? In this conversation, I share: • Why outsourcing your health (completely) creates a deep split between “you” and your body • How fear gets stored in the body and shapes your symptoms and reactions • The truth about homeostasis – your body is always trying to maintain balance and protect you • Why it's not your body or nervous system that are “bad” or “broken” – it's the patterns we're running through them • A different way of relating to your body: as a miracle, an ally, and an intelligent system that's always communicating with you This episode is an invitation to soften the war with your body and begin rebuilding trust – not through another strict protocol, but by changing how you see, feel and relate to your own physical being.

What if you could reduce chronic pain, stress, and tension in just 15 minutes a day—without pills, surgeries, or endless appointments?In this conversation, I sit down with Jason van Blerk, former professional soccer player and co-founder of the Human Garage fascia method. Jason shares why he and his team closed their successful Los Angeles clinic after nearly a decade and shifted to one mission: democratizing self-healing so people can learn to heal their own bodies. He also opens up about his own breaking point—doing everything “right” in life and still ending up miserable—and how that moment pushed him to completely redesign his health, career, and purpose.In this episode you'll learn:- Why Jason believes the traditional “fix the patient” model is broken- How habits become locked in at the subconscious level after 28–40 days- Why so many young people now have health issues that used to show up at 60-70Like this episode?

Scott Capozza and I could have been cloned in a bad lab experiment. Both diagnosed with cancer in our early twenties. Both raised on dial-up and mixtapes. Both now boy-girl twin dads with speech-therapist wives and a lifelong grudge against insurance companies. Scott is the first and only full-time oncology physical therapist at Yale New Haven Health, which means if he catches a cold, cancer rehab in Connecticut flatlines. He's part of a small, stubborn tribe of providers who believe movement belongs in cancer care, not just after it. We talked about sperm banking in the nineties, marathon training during chemo, and what it means to be told you're “otherwise healthy” when your lungs, ears, and fertility disagree. Scott's proof that survivorship is not a finish line. It's an endurance event with no medals, just perspective.RELATED LINKSScott Capozza on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-capozza-a68873257Yale New Haven Health: https://www.ynhh.orgExercising Through Cancer: https://www.exercisingthroughcancer.com/team/scott-capozza-pt-msptProfiles in Survivorship – Yale Medicine: https://medicine.yale.edu/news-article/profiles-in-survivorship-scott-capozzaFEEDBACKLike this episode?

⚠️ Listener discretion advised: This episode includes discussion of sexual assault and suicidal ideation. Please listen with care and prioritize your safety.In this powerful Season 3 finale, Lyndsay Soprano opens up like never before. She reflects on her own story—navigating trauma, chronic pain, and the often invisible weight of living in a body that refuses to cooperate. From a deeply personal history of sexual assault to the ongoing fight for care and dignity as someone living with disability, Lyndsay doesn't hold anything back.She shares what it's been like returning to ketamine therapy, the exhaustion of chasing diagnoses, and the quiet strength it takes to keep going when healing feels impossibly far away. But this episode isn't just about her, it's about all of us. The ones who are still hurting. The ones in therapy. The ones who are tired. The ones who show up anyway.Season 3 ends not with a neat conclusion, but with a clear message: we must start where we are. We must continue to have the uncomfortable conversations. And we don't have to do it alone.Tune in to the finale if you need a reminder that your story matters, your pain is valid, and there is real strength in showing up exactly as you are.Find The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastLinkedIn: Lyndsay SopranoYouTube: The Pain Game PodcastEpisode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to the Pain Game Podcast(01:25) Lyndsay's Personal Journey with Trauma(09:35) The Frustration of Diagnosis(13:46) Advocacy and Healthcare for the Disabled(15:04) Starting Where You're At(18:40) The Importance of Mind, Body, and Spirit(21:47) Childhood Trauma and Its Effects(24:26) Resilience and Gratitude(28:46) Confronting Suicide Ideation(32:00) Closing Thoughts and Future DirectionsSubscribe on YouTube | Merch is Coming (Finally) | This Is More Than a PodcastUnfiltered convos.

Podcast Description: The Missing Piece in Chronic Illness (Electrons + Blood Flow)Schedule a Discovery Zoom Call https://drhughwegwerth.com/discovery-call/If you feel sick all the time and nothing seems to “stick,” this episode is for you. In this talk, Dr. Hugh shares a simple idea: many chronic illness cases are linked to being “electron deficient.” That means your body may not have enough negative charge to run well.In This Episode, You'll LearnWhat “electron deficient” means and why it matters for healingWhy short-term fixes may help for a bit, then stop workingHow the body depends on electrons to support energy and healthWhy tiny blood vessels (capillaries) matter most for real healingWhy blood cells can clump together when charge is lowWhat “zeta potential” means (simple version: the charge around red blood cells)Why smooth blood flow helps deliver oxygen and nutrientsA Simple Picture Dr. Hugh UsesBig blood vessels = about 1% of your systemTiny capillaries = about 99% of your systemThe point: real healing depends on the “small stuff” working wellKey Idea About Blood FlowRed blood cells need the right charge so they don't stick togetherWhen they stay separated, blood can flow better through tiny capillariesWhen they clump, it can slow delivery to tissuesTests and Clues MentionedBlood pH (needs to stay in a tight, healthy range)Sedimentation rate (sed rate/ESR) as a possible sign of clumping and inflammationSolutions Covered in the EpisodeGrounding (“Vitamin G”) to support electron flowPhosphatidylcholine (PC) to support cell membranes and healthy blood cell movementSupport the glycocalyx (a protective lining in blood vessels that has a negative charge)Stabilize blood sugarSupport minerals + hydrationFix the gut (because healing is harder when the gut is unhealthy)Address toxins like mold and heavy metals that may drain the systemWho This Episode Is ForPeople with chronic illness that won't improvePeople with fatigue, inflammation, brain fog, or poor circulationAnyone who feels like they have tried everything and still feels stuckMain TakeawayHealing works better when your body has the charge and support it needs.You don't need to suffer forever. You may just need a guided plan.

Hi my loves

In this episode of The Natural Health Podcast, Mihaela sits down with Greg also known as Hydrogen Man to explore one of the most misunderstood yet powerful tools in natural health molecular hydrogen.Greg shares his extraordinary journey from car enthusiast to chronic illness survivor, detailing how autoimmune issues, neurological symptoms and years of suffering pushed him into searching for answers outside the medical system. That search led him to hydrogen therapy, a natural and scientifically studied antioxidant that changed his health and his life.You'll learn:

We begin with a "free-for-all Friday" roundup of my notes for the week on AI news, Trump's new love for marijuana, the latest on immigration and the courts, and the Indiana legislature's rejection of redistricting. Once again, this is a Flight 93 presidency. Next we're joined by Nic Hulscher, epidemiologist at the McCullough Foundation, for a riveting discussion of his analysis of the now-exposed Ford health study showing an overall 2.5-fold increase in the likelihood of developing a chronic health condition in vaccinated children relative to the unvaccinated. Hulscher explains why this study is comprehensive and powerful and how a proper analysis of it shows a 549% higher rate of autism-associated neurodevelopmental conditions and a 54% elevation in childhood cancer in the vaccinated cohort. He also shares some new research on the COVID vaccines that prove cancerous fragments of the plasmids can stay in the body for years.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Alex Crowther was this week's guest on Success Profiles Radio. After 30 years as a global advertising executive, he developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), which is the most painful disease known to medicine. He studied the neuroscience of pain and discovered a modality called Pain Coaching, which he believes has saved his life. He is the CEO of Pain Academy where they train people to help the 70-75 million Americans living with high-impact chronic pain and illness. His upcoming book is called, Reframing Pain: Understanding Pain in Everyday Terms, and it explains how pain works in the brain and body, and how anyone can influence their own pain experience. We talked about how redefining pain can impact your life and career, how affirmations can help you deal with pain, overcoming extreme adversity and rebuilding your identity, and how finding your purpose can help you view stress more constructively. In addition, we discussed how finding alignment can heal you, practical tools to deal with chronic pain every day, the career path to Pain Coaching, and examples of successful clients.

Dr. MaryAnn Wilbur trained her whole life to care for patients, then left medicine behind when it became a machine that punished empathy and rewarded throughput. She didn't burn out. She got out. A gynecologic oncologist, public health researcher, and no-bullshit single mom, MaryAnn walked straight off the cliff her career breadcrumbed her to—and lived to write the book.In this episode, we talk about what happens when doctors are forced to choose between their ethics and their employment, why medicine now operates like a low-resource war zone, and how the system breaks the very people it claims to elevate. We cover moral injury, medical gaslighting, and why she refused to lie on surgical charts just to boost hospital revenue.Her escape plan? Tell the truth, organize the exodus, and build something that actually works. If you've ever wondered why your doctor disappeared, this is your answer. If you're a clinician hiding your own suffering, this is your permission slip.RELATED LINKSMaryAnn Wilbur on LinkedInMedicine ForwardClinician Burnout FoundationThe Doctor Is No Longer In (Book)Suck It Up, Buttercup (Documentary)FEEDBACKLike this episode?

Many people today describe a pattern they cannot explain. Life feels manageable until something unexpected happens at work or home, then the body suddenly shuts down. The mind spins, energy collapses, irritability rises, and the only thing that feels safe is withdrawing into the couch, the phone, or Netflix. This is not laziness or burnout. This is functional freeze. In this hol+ conversation, Dr. Taz sits down with environmental and root cause medicine expert Dr. Jessica Peatross (Dr. Jess) to reveal why so many people experience chronic fatigue, anxiety, weight gain, histamine reactions, food sensitivities and unexplained inflammation even when routine labs look normal.Instead of chasing symptoms or isolated toxins, Dr. Jess explains how a dysregulated nervous system alters detox, hormones, digestion, immunity and gene expression. She breaks down how trauma, mold exposure, hidden infections, parasites and environmental chemicals overload the body when the vagus nerve is stuck in fight, flight or freeze. And she shows why healing is impossible when the body does not feel safe.From childhood trauma and dorsal vagal shutdown to blocked drainage pathways, cytokine storms, reactivated viruses and misdiagnosed environmental illness, this episode reframes chronic symptoms through a lens of nervous system physiology, not personal weakness or aging.You will learn what functional freeze looks like, why detox often makes people worse, how to identify nervous system dysregulation, and the steps Dr. Jess uses to help patients regulate, open pathways and finally begin to heal. Together, Dr. Taz and Dr. Jess outline a clear, compassionate roadmap for anyone who has ever felt dismissed, overwhelmed or stuck in a body that will not calm down.Dr. Taz and Dr. Jess discuss: • What functional freeze is and why it shows up in daily life • How nervous system dysregulation drives fatigue, anxiety and chronic symptoms • The role of mold, parasites, toxins and environmental chemicals in chronic illness • Why detox fails when the body does not feel safe • Vagus nerve physiology and dorsal vs ventral vagal states • How trauma, stress and grief reshape hormones, immune function and methylation • Medical dismissal and the reality of normal labs with real symptoms • The drainage pathways that must open before detox • Histamine issues, MCAS, POTS and their connection to the nervous system • Tools that help regulate the system and support healing • How to track progress through sleep, HRV, emotional stability and digestion • Why healing is not linear and why support and community matterAbout Dr. Jessica Peatross Dr. Jessica Peatross  is a functional and environmental medicine expert known for her work on nervous system dysregulation, toxin-driven illness and trauma informed detox. She is the founder of WellnessPlus, an educational platform teaching step-by-step protocols for mold, parasites, drainage and nervous system healing. Her approach blends clinical training with nervous system science to uncover root causes often missed in conventional care.Stay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Follow Dr. JessInstagram: https://instagram.com/dr.jess.md/YouTube: https://youtube.com/@DoctorJessMDWebsiet: https://drjessmd.com/  Follow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsGet your copy of The Hormone Shift: Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and MenopauseHost & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek)

In this week's episode of Pastors' Wives Tell All, we chat with our dear friend Amy Gordon, a pastor's wife and mama who opens up about walking through health crises, chronic illness, and the unexpected ways those seasons deepened her family's faith. She shares how “staying long and going deep” in ministry has shaped her perspective, why community is absolutely essential, and how sometimes the holiest thing we can do is let people carry us to Jesus. Amy's honesty, humor, and hard-earned wisdom offer hope for any pastor's wife—or anyone—navigating uncertainty and leaning on God in the middle of the mess.Get all the info about our next pastors' wives retreat and apply here:https://www.pastorswivestellall.com/attendaretreatTo purchase the BOOK, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/book⁠⁠To shop our MERCH, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/shop⁠⁠Want to support the Pastors' Wives Tell All podcast ministry?
