Incontinence is a sensitive topic, but for those living with Parkinson's, it's a critical conversation for both quality of life and physical safety. In this episode (watch on YouTube), I break down why Parkinson's affects the bladder—from dopamine loss to autonomic nervous system changes—and how these issues can lead to increased fall risks. We explore the different types of incontinence, the impact of "wearing off" periods on nighttime urgency (nocturia), and why constipation and pelvic floor dysfunction shouldn't be overlooked. Most importantly, I share actionable solutions, including pelvic floor therapy and high-absorbency products like LivDry, which can help you stay safe and get a full night's rest.

How can we explain vivid, life changing experiences and true perceptions occurring in patients between brain death and resuscitation? What are the implications of true information being anomalously communicated during these experiences? What are the implications of some children being able to access the memories of deceased people? Why do such a high portion of these kids remember a traumatic death?In this episode we have the two fascinating phenomena of near death experiences, and access to deceased peoples memories to look into. So, we discuss the history of NDE research, the main repeating components of the experiences and some of the anomalous information received; we talk about the radical changes in meaning, purpose and world views after such experiences; and the difficulties integrating this with their previous daily lives and relationships. Then we switch and look at the research into children who appear to have memories of people who are no longer alive, and the attempts to identify the dead person and verify if these things actually happened to them. And of course we're going to look at the implications of these anomalous phenomena for life, death, consciousness and the nature of reality.Our guest today is a psychiatrist and neuro-behavioural scientist in the Division of Perceptual Studies at the University of Virginia, Marieta Pehlivanova. She's the author of 12 scientific papers, many co-authored with Dr. Bruce Greyson, the founder of the International Association for the Study of Near Death experience, who recommended Marieta in his stead now he is unable to give interviews any more. Please feel free to donate to the Division of Perceptual StudiesDonation · University of Virginia · GiveCampusGetting funding to study anomalous phenomena is harder than ever, and we don't want this research to drop off the map.What we discuss: 00:00 Intro.06:45 Near Death Experiences.06:25 The Dept Of Perceptual Studies (DOPS), UOVirginia.14:15 Near Death Experience Scale: Features of NDE in psychiatry.18:15 Not everyone has the life review.19:30 Anomalous features. 26:20 The new Near Death Experience Contents Scale.28:20 NDE is hard to put into words.31:20 Mental health and integration support for NDErs.39:20 Metaphysical implications of NDEs.43:00 The afterlife hypothesis.44:00 The prejudice caused by our experience of the arrow of time.46:00 NDErs say, “everything is happening at the same time”.49:25 Children who have dead peoples memories, reincarnation-like cases - Ian Stevenson & Jim Tucker.52:30 How the accuracy of the memory is investigated.55:31 Habitual or biological similarities between child and remembered person.56:00 Resistance in jumping to the reincarnation hypothesis.58:30 %60 of the kids recall a traumatic death, some have trauma symptoms01:02:00 Comparing brain scans of these apparently traumatised children.01:04:45 New research coming on autobiographic memory pathways.01:07:30 Epigenetic and genetic approaches.01:07:50 Potential to explain intergenerational trauma mechanism.01:10:45 Metaphysical implications of children's memories of dead adults.01:15:30 Assessing claims that those who accept psi lack critical cognitive ability.References:International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS)Greyson's Near-Death experience scaleCharlotte Martial et al. 2020.

You already know what Bill does. This episode is about what's underneath it: the stories he tells himself, the things he keeps quiet, and the beliefs he never chose. You'll learn what a cognitive adaptation is, how the same mental habit sounds completely different depending on the state you're in, why humans isolate and keep secrets when animals don't, and how the beliefs handed to you can block the very pulls that would bring you toward safety. It ends with one question for you: how do you keep yourself stuck?A note before you listen: from about 5:42 to 9:52, this episode talks in general terms about abuse, perpetrators, and victim-blaming.

This week I'm speaking with Giovanni Giamminola about using AI to strengthen (not surrende) human judgment.Giovanni explains the difference between cognitive offloading and cognitive surrender, why AI fluency can create false confidence, and how cognitive governance helps organizations decide when people should lead the reasoning and when AI can productively support it.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN• The distinction between delegating a task to AI and delegating your thinking.• Why fluent, confident AI output still requires human evaluation.• The four AI work postures: exploratory, generative, critical, and operating.• How “System Zero” creates a deliberate pause before a decision is made.• Why job redesign should focus on decision ownership, not just automation.• How L&D teams can move beyond tool training and build real cognitive capability.• The difference between model risk and cognitive risk.• Why leaders need participation—not merely sponsorship—to lead AI adoption.• How AI can give people more room for relationships, trust, values, and judgment.Giovanni Giamminola is an AI transformation strategist focused on the human and organizational side of AI adoption. His work explores cognitive governance, decision-making, and how leaders and learning teams can build the capabilities needed to work thoughtfully with AI.

Luke Carignan runs this one solo and flips the format. No crisis, no warnings. Three healthcare workforce stories that went right, and three things healthcare HR can act on because of them.

Show notes:  How should we understand our sexuality?  God created us relational. To know and love another and being known and loved by another is a core human need. Wonderfully, this is ultimately met in Christ apart from sex. Yet, our sexuality serves as a physical reminder of this need. Sexuality in marriage can be a reflection of this holy intimacy with God.   What is a critical element of sexual addiction recovery?  Community. Bringing our pain and addiction into the light of fellowship provides strength for recovery. Addicts grow in empathy and accountability.  Why is empathy significant?  Sexual vice erodes empathy - the ability to feel with another person. Empathy wonderfully helps recover the addicted mind because it helps us healthily feel with people. When we walk in community, we see how our sin adversely affects others.  Say more about the connection between empathy and sexual health.  Empathy helps us develop compassion. Compassion is suffering with another person. Such compassion is an expression of love. In short, sexual addiction violates love for God, others and ourselves. Learning to love others well helps recovery.  Who might be the community the addicted connect with?  Prudence should be always taken when elevating our brokenness with others. Certainly, there are those we should and shouldn't share openly with. Open fellowship can be struck between any safe and trusted individual. Those close to us. There are also organized groups such as Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA).  Coach the community. What is required of them?  Communities need to be trustworthy and able to absorb brokenness without shutting down openness. Further, they need to learn how to speak truth into the life of the addicted. Compassion is needed to suffer alongside the addicted.  What are you learning in your profession as an addiction specialist?   Much research is indicating the effect pornography has on the brain and body. Much like drugs, sexual deviancy is changing our brains and bodies for the worse. Sexual addiction is a compulsion for sexual deviancy, yet it is always a choice. Compulsion and choice occur at the same time and do not diminish the other.  What resources do you recommend?  Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a technique that attempts to slow us down enough to see why we are doing what we are doing. The intention is to learn ourselves well enough to catch our earliest thoughts that lead to unhelpful feelings and unwanted behaviors.  Personal Craziness Index is a resource that a person engages with over time to learn their patterns. The intention is to detect one's earliest unhealthy behavior.  Three circle exercise is another resource that helps organize behaviors into healthy and unhealthy zones for the purpose of understanding our behavior.  Identity statement exercise is an activity that leads a person in creating an identity statement for themselves. These identity statements help a person understand and believe more fully, who they are as a son or daughter of God.  Spiritual gifts assessment. This activity helps a person understand their spiritual giftings and how they might live more fully into these gifts.

Send us Fan MailWhat should you be doing in your 20s, 30s and 40s if you want a healthy brain at 80?This week, we're joined by registered dietitian and cognitive health expert Barbie Boules to talk about what we actually know about protecting our brains as we age and why brain health deserves our attention long before we start worrying about dementia.Barbie has been a registered dietitian for over 25 years, and her work has become increasingly focused on women's health, healthy aging and cognitive health. After her mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, the conversation around dementia prevention and protecting cognitive function also became deeply personal for her.We talk about the connection between cardiovascular health and brain health, including cholesterol, ApoB, Lp(a), blood pressure, insulin resistance and body composition, and why many of the things we do to protect our hearts may also matter for our brains.We also get into brain fog and normal forgetfulness, social media and our shrinking attention spans, multitasking, AI and whether outsourcing our thinking could have consequences for cognitive health.Then, of course, we talk nutrition: the MIND diet, berries, leafy greens, whole grains, fatty fish, coffee, alcohol, creatine and supplements. Plus, Barbie breaks down what we actually know about menopause and cognition, including the viral claim that your brain starts to “eat itself” when estrogen declines.In this episode, we cover:• How early brain health and cognitive decline should be on our radar• Normal forgetfulness vs. changes worth paying attention to• Modifiable risk factors for dementia and cognitive decline• The connection between cholesterol, metabolic health and brain health• Whether social media, multitasking and AI are changing how we use our brains• The MIND diet and what to eat for long-term brain health• Coffee, alcohol, creatine and supplements for cognitive health• Menopause, estrogen and the female brain• Cognitive reserve and why protecting your brain involves more than doing Sudoku• The realistic habits you can start now to support a healthier brain laterIf you've ever wondered how to keep your brain healthy as you age, whether brain fog is something to worry about, or what actually matters for reducing your risk of cognitive decline, this episode is for you.More about Barbie? Her websiteHer SubstackHer Instagram SHOP OUR MERCH HERE

"If you give AI tools to 50 engineers without a standardised framework, you don't get 50x productivity. You get 50 different ways of working."Ricardo and I explore the intersection of AI integration and human leadership. Modern leadership demands more than just technical oversight. As organizations rush to integrate artificial intelligence, the biggest hurdle is not the software itself, but the human element within the system.How can we operationalize AI without sacrificing the intelligence and culture that make an organization thrive. Instead of treating AI as a separate project, leaders must embed it into their daily operations. By viewing the process as an endurance challenge—using the mindset, discipline and tenacity similar to endurance running—leaders can create sustainable change. This approach allows teams to experiment, learn, and iterate while maintaining a healthy, high-performing environment.Transformation fatigue happens when organizations lose the ability to evolve due to constant, unaligned change, and when this happens companies often drift to the status quo. To avoid this, Ricardo Arcia suggests that leaders must be deliberate about timing. Not every moment is the right time to push for a total shift of the whole system- small and intentional is the way forward.True transformation requires a framework. Leaders must provide the language, the training, and the environment that allow teams to use these tools in a way that aligns with the overall organizational goals before scaling. one highly effective strategy for scaling AI is the creation of a “Team Zero.” This is an actual, operational team tasked with converting theory into practice. Instead of forcing an entire organization to adopt new tools simultaneously—which often creates chaos—a leader can task one team with finding the most effective ways to use AI in their daily sprints.We must move away from measuring simple outputs, such as lines of code, and move to tracking outcomes and the actual impact on the business. This shift in measurement ensures that the organization remains aligned with ROI goals. If you cannot show the value of your investment, the resources needed for future innovation will disappear.Leading AI transformation (particularly from the inside) is a test of clarity, discipline, and systemic thinking. Leaders who succeed are those who treat their organizations like a living system, prioritizing human intelligence alongside technological advancements. By implementing frameworks, fostering a culture of experimentation, and measuring true impact, leaders can navigate the uncertainty of AI and build a more resilient organization for the future.The main insights you'll get from this episode are :Health, family, work, and hobbies as priorities and a framework to compound incremental gains over time and hone discipline.Carve out time for body and mind daily – not if, but when; involves planning and dedication.Rest and rehabilitation are also important as part of the cycle of execute, measure, and evolve over time – not favoured in corporate environments.Once maturity is achieved within an organisation, it is probably time to reiterate with another transformation in such a fast-moving world. To increase team productivity using the new tools on the market requires transformation to be scaled correctly (i.e. incrementally not wholesale), a holistic system overview, and correct measurement of outcomes.Engineers have a choice to either embrace AI or be replaced; C-suite level must deal with the uncertainty and embrace the new normal.Inconsistent results demand training in a common language around AI and levelling up the way of working for junior and senior employees.Foundational blocks of transformation = training + framework -> iteration in 90-day loops + intentional coaching.In AI, acceleration does not always result in significant gains due to a siloed approach, bottlenecks, and an inability to prove/measure ROI.Orchestration and systems thinking for fluency are required when inserting AI into organisations as it changes the culture. A vision is required for people to feel at ease and get on board; ‘team zero' is a real team of believers who convert theory into practice as a playbook for others.The cognitive leader's role is to intentionally create the environment for transformation and orchestrate scaling.The AI adoption path must be structured and shared – a list of tasks based on an initial assessment can change along the way, e.g. strategic, operational, etc.Senior leaders need to focus on the impact of AI/transformation on the organisation, demonstrate humanity, and have the vision, not the solution.Find out more about Ricardo and his book here https://ricardoarcia.com/bookhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ricardoarcia/For more information on this episode please visit www.transformforvalue.com/podcastTo carry on developing your leadership and building a relevant & high performing team, connect with me here : https://calendly.com/transformforvalue/connect

I read about how AI is causing "cognitive surrender," meaning you don't even try to think for yourself because AI can do it readily and confidently for you.

Episode SummaryMikki has said many times — on this podcast, on other podcasts, and repeatedly on Instagram — that eating carbohydrate at dinner helps calm the nervous system, and that this is why people who feel wired at night sleep better when they add some back in. In this episode she corrects herself. Not on the advice, which she still gives and still sees work, but on the mechanism she has been attaching to it: insulin clearing branched-chain amino acids out of the bloodstream, tryptophan winning the competition at the blood-brain barrier, and the resulting serotonin and melatonin sedating you. Every step in that chain is real biochemistry, which is exactly why it sounds right. It just does not happen at the doses found in any meal she would actually recommend.From there she works through what is more likely going on. She covers the head-to-head trial that put carbohydrate, two proteins and a placebo up against each other before bed and found nothing; why the pre-sleep protein literature is muscle research rather than sleep research; the difference between an energy deficit and low energy availability; and the body of work on cognitive dietary restraint — the mental effort of not eating, which carries measurable physiological consequences independent of how much is actually eaten. She is careful throughout about how messy cortisol data is, and about which parts of it she thinks still stand. The practical conclusion is unchanged but better founded: if you are wired and under-eating relative to your training, it is probably the calories, and carbohydrate is usually the easiest thing to add back.Key TopicsWhy the mechanism matters even when the advice is fine — Mikki's argument is that people do not just follow advice, they extend it using the mechanism you gave them, so an explanation that isn't real can cause problems in situations you never had in mind.The tryptophan pathway, and where it breaks — the effect requires carbohydrate high enough and protein low enough for tryptophan to win the competition at the blood-brain barrier. Add meaningful protein and it disappears, and the melatonin generated downstream is nowhere near a dose that influences sleep.Lower carbohydrate was associated with more slow-wave sleep, not less — a meta-analysis of polysomnography studies found lower carbohydrate intake linked to more slow-wave sleep, less REM and a shorter time to fall asleep. That is the opposite direction to what Mikki had been saying.The head-to-head trial in elite female athletes — 40 g of alpha-lactalbumin, 40 g of casein, 40 g of carbohydrate or a non-caloric placebo, taken 30 minutes before bed for three nights each. No difference in total sleep time, sleep onset latency, subjective sleep quality, resting heart rate or heart rate variability, and no difference in overnight glucose on CGM.Pre-sleep protein is muscle research, not sleep research — protein before bed does do what it says for the overnight muscle protein synthetic response. That is a separate question from whether it sedates you, and when sleep is the outcome tested directly it is no better than carbohydrate or nothing.Why it still works in clinic: it is the calories — the null trial was run in adequately-fed people. Mikki's clinical population is in a deficit and often training hard, so adding food at dinner adds total energy to the day. Carbohydrate is simply the lever she usually reaches for, because protein is normally already handled in a fat-loss meal.Energy deficit is not the same thing as low energy availability — two women in the same deficit can be in very different positions depending on training volume. Mikki cites the 30 kcal/kg fat-free mass threshold and is explicit that it is not a number everyone agrees on.Cognitive dietary restraint has physiological consequences — over two years in 123 healthy young women, higher restraint was associated with more cycles showing subclinical ovulatory disturbances (56% versus 34%), and physical activity, general stress, BMI and energy intake did not explain the difference. Related work found higher 24-hour urinary cortisol in high-restraint women, replicated in postmenopausal women aged 49 to 75.A one-off cortisol test tells you very little — within-person variability is large, the cortisol awakening response has test-retest reliability too poor for individual comparisons, and the research Mikki is drawing on compared groups using 24-hour urinary collections rather than single spot samples. Noise that swamps one person averages out across sixty or a hundred.What to actually do — if you are wired, under-eating and training, add the calories back. Put a small portion of carbohydrate on a plate whose protein is already covered; if protein is the thing that is low, add protein instead, particularly through midlife. And if fear of evening carbohydrate is the real barrier, add it back and watch what happens — evidence builds confidence.Chapters00:00 Where I got the mechanism wrong02:59 Benton, dose and the sleep studies04:49 Carbs, casein or placebo before bed07:12 Why it still works in clinic08:56 Energy deficit, training load and cortisol11:39 Fear of carbs and dietary restraint14:19 How reliable is cortisol testing16:09 What to actually doGuest / ResourcesThis is a solo episode.

She refers to this from memory; no specific episode is identified.Zach Bitter — mentioned as a low-carbohydrate proponent who reported that higher carbohydrate intake worsened his sleep. An individual account, not a study.Luc van Loon's group — including Jorn Trommelen and Tim Snijders — the pre-sleep protein and overnight muscle protein synthesis research. Mikki's point is that this body of work is about muscle, not sleep.Anne Loucks — the work establishing that luteinising hormone pulsatility is disrupted below roughly 30 kcal per kg of fat-free mass per day, after subtracting the energy cost of exercise. Mikki notes in the episode that this threshold is not universally agreed.Yuko Nakamura and colleagues — a meta-analysis separating the severity of energy restriction, finding that fasting raises cortisol strongly while low-calorie and very-low-calorie diets do not, and that the effect fades over several weeks.Jennifer Bedford and colleagues — a two-year study of 123 healthy young women, finding higher cognitive dietary restraint associated with more cycles showing subclinical ovulatory disturbances (56% versus 34%), with physical activity, general stress, BMI and energy intake failing to explain the difference.Judy McLean and colleagues — 24-hour urinary cortisol excretion compared in premenopausal women with high versus low dietary restraint scores, matched for age, BMI and cycle length.Candice Rideout and colleagues — the same finding in postmenopausal women aged 49 to 75, who d...

What if the biggest problem in education isn't AI, it's that almost nothing we already do has ever been tested for evidence the way a new drug would be?In this episodeIn this episode, Ben and Steve sit down with Dr Yusuf Ben-Tarifite - A&E doctor, social mobility researcher, and founder of Ava - to talk about what happens when you apply medical-grade evidence standards to education. From email-blasting a thousand consultants to get work experience, to building the UK's first randomised control trial comparing AI tutoring against video, Yusuf makes the case that education's real crisis isn't too much AI scepticism; it's not enough rigour applied everywhere else.We cover:- Yusuf's journey from a Hertfordshire state school to Oxford medicine, and why he founded Aspiring Medics a week before Freshers' Week- The Diana Award, Prince William, and "leaving the ladder down" for others- Ava's mission: equality of opportunity, not just support for disadvantaged students- Why AI is a continuum, not a chatbot and how Ava uses it as a Socratic tutor and interview coach- Building an actual evidence base: doubling Oxbridge odds, and the UK's first randomised trial of AI vs video tutoring- The real hope for AI in education and the risk of turning students into "AI zombies"- Why writing and thinking are the same skill, and what that means for assessment- "I call bullshit": how often is high-quality face-to-face teaching actually happening?- The GCSE resit numbers that expose a one-size-fits-all system already failing thousands- Why cognitive discomfort, like progressive overload in the gym, is the point of learning, not a bug- The shrinking half-life of technical skills, and what it means for lifelong learningChapters0:00 Highlights0:58 Welcome 3:20 Introducing Dr Yusuf: A&E doctor, researcher and founder of Ava3:57 From a Hertfordshire state school to Oxford medicine5:33 Who Ava is for: narrowing the gap, or equality of opportunity for all?7:15 The AI revolution and democratising education8:17 The Diana Award, Prince William, and "leaving the ladder down"10:25 What still drives him after the recognition11:44 From Aspiring Medics to Oxbridge: his North Star for social mobility13:33 Mirroring the Edufuturists journey, and the shrinking half-life of skills16:18 Why social mobility is complicated and why tech alone won't fix it18:04 Inside Ava: a "training course" for university applications19:38 The "who you know" problem, and levelling the playing field20:56 AI as a Socratic tutor and why "the genie can't go back in the bottle"22:49 Building the evidence base: doubling Oxbridge odds, and the UK's first AI vs video trial23:44 Beyond the hype: the real hope for AI in education, and the risk of "AI zombies"26:33 Outsourcing the doing, not the thinking28:13 Teaching cognitive biases, and why writing is thinking29:58 Is high-quality face-to-face learning really happening as often as we assume?31:47 The longitudinal evidence question, and a one-size-fits-all model that's already failing33:04 Why AI should face the same scrutiny as every other intervention34:07 The COVID hangover, and why we're asking the wrong question about online learning36:10 Is there a gap between policy and technology?37:35 Cognitive discomfort: why learning should feel like exercise41:28 Has the fundamental nature of learning really changed?42:43 Quickfire QuestionsFind out more about AVACheck out all about EdufuturistsWant to sponsor future episodes or get involved with the Edufuturists work?

This week's Watchman Report has been compiled by Brother Bryan Styles (Livonia) and takes a detailed look at the subject of Ai which has dominated the news this week saw Ai Leaders Warn the Technology could be a risk to humanity, and world leaders at the UN General Assembly have met to discuss its use and what controls, if any could be used to allay fears of AI ultimately destroying mankind. But what about the God-fearing person? How could this technology affect our daily worship and learning? Join bro Bryan as we delve into this fascinating developing story! A @Christadelphians Video: Cognitive Surrender - the battle for the mind" Watchman Report#68 with Bible scholar Bryan Styles[Provable Bible Truth] - Why watch it? What question does this video answer?Why watch? Because AI is not merely a tool; it is a spiritual test. This Watchman Report asks: “Will we surrender our minds to artificial intelligence, or will we let God renovate them?” From the transcript, we answer: cognitive surrender happens when AI's output quietly becomes our output. Yet 2 Timothy 3:7 warns of endless learning without arriving at truth. Romans 12:2 calls us to transformation by the renewal of our minds, proving God's will. We, as Christadelphians, urge you: use tools wisely, but never outsource discernment. Character is forged through friction, prayer, sorrow and patient study—not instant deliverables. Babel shows where autonomous humanity leads; AI magnifies the heart's intent. Christ's return draws near. Choose character over speed, active discipleship over cognitive surrender, and keep developing a mind like His.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction: AI headlines and Silicon Valley warnings00:23 - The challenge of AI: cognitive surrender defined00:59 - Paul's warning: 2 Timothy 3:701:27 - Information rich, understanding poor02:01 - Why drift happens: efficiency and deliverables02:31 - Romans 12:2: transformation, not conformity02:48 - Character forged through friction03:19 - Defining success: people are the product04:19 - Babel: humanity's spiritual autonomy05:03 - Genesis 11:6: capability without maturity05:45 - AI as an accelerant of the heart06:14 - History repeats; God intervenes06:25 - Called to a higher path06:57 - Christ's return draws near07:22 - Choice: character over speed07:51 - Keep reading, praying, developing08:01 - Final reflections08:25 - Watchman Report closing08:40 - Call to action and community engagement08:54 - Conclusion: develop until the Lord returnsBible Verse Category:

When the pressure is on, why do we sometimes fail to live up to our potential? Cognitive scientist and Barnard College president Sian Leah Beilock reveals what happens in your brain and body when you choke in stressful situations, sharing psychological tools that can help you perform at your best when it matters most. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For thousands of years—maybe for as long as we've been human—we've offloaded our thinking. We've counted on our fingers. We've carved tallies into bone. We've invented a long series of tools to help us reason, remember, and manage information—tools like abacuses, calendars, writing systems, calculators, smartphones, and many, many more. So cognitive offloading is hardly new—but the questions around it seem newly urgent. As cognitive technologies accumulate, as opportunities for offloading tempt us at every turn, as headlines warn of "digital dementia" and "cognitive surrender," it seems like a good time to take stock. Yes, cognitive offloading can save us time and effort. But what are its other consequences? My guest today is Dr. Sam Gilbert. Sam is a Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London. Sam and his colleagues have been trailblazers in the study of cognitive offloading—when we do it, why we do it, what it does for us and to us.  Here, Sam and I talk about what cognitive offloading is, how deep it goes in our species' history, and how it pervades our everyday lives. We talk about the different forms that offloading takes. We discuss why some people offload more than others, and why we offload in certain situations. We walk through three bodies of research on the consequences of cognitive offloading—research on the so-called Google effect, on the photo-taking impairment effect, and on the impact of using GPS to navigate. Of course, we also address the elephant in the room: How should we think about the possible dangers—and benefits—of cognitive offloading in the new era of AI? Before we get to it, some news: We have re-launched the Many Minds newsletter, as a Substack! We'll be sharing each of our episodes there, as well as other morsels from time to time. We've been wanting to do this, in part, to give you a better way to engage with us—and with each other. Were there questions we should have asked? Are there connections you made that we didn't? Counterarguments we overlooked? Et cetera. All that stuff can now go in the comments for each episode. So, if you're a fan of the show, please do consider subscribing and following along with us there. Alright friends, on to my conversation with Dr. Sam Gilbert.

In this Wellness Tech Series episode, Nurse Doza breaks down SONA — an AI-powered earpiece that delivers gentle vagus nerve stimulation at the cymba concha, the one spot in the outer ear where a branch of the vagus nerve reaches the surface. He explains how the paired app reads heart rate variability in real time, why HRV is a window into stress and recovery, and how short guided breath and audio sessions are designed to fit a schedule with no room for a long meditation. FEATURED PARTNER SONA is an AI-powered wearable vagus nerve stimulator. It sits on the ear and delivers low-level, non-invasive electrical stimulation at the cymba concha — the auricular branch of the vagus nerve — while the companion app tracks heart rate variability so users can watch their own trend across a session. Guided breath work and audio pairings are built in, the app has no monthly subscription, and the device ships with a 30-day money-back guarantee and a 1-year warranty. It's the tool Nurse Doza reaches for when the problem isn't knowing how to relax — it's having ten minutes and a way to tell whether anything actually happened.

Menopause is often discussed in terms of hot flashes, sleep problems, and other physical symptoms, but the mental and emotional impact can be just as significant. In this episode of The Positive Pause®, host Claire Gill talks with Seema Bajaj, Executive Director of the Seleni Institute, and Dr. Mary Riddle, reproductive psychologist and lead instructor for Seleni's new peri/menopause mental health course, about why mental health needs to become a bigger part of perimenopause and menopause care and how better education can help both women and the professionals who support them.  Seema Bajaj is a healthcare operations executive with nearly 20 years of experience in clinical operations, financial management, and strategic planning across academic medicine, research, and nonprofit healthcare. As Executive Director of the Seleni Institute, a global nonprofit dedicated to transforming mental healthcare by addressing the unique needs of women, mothers, and families, she leads the organization's operations and strategic growth, advancing its mission to expand access to maternal and reproductive mental health care and professional training worldwide.  Dr. Mary Riddle is a licensed clinical health psychologist and reproductive mental health expert with over 20 years of experience specializing in infertility, third-party reproduction, pregnancy loss, and perinatal mental health. She is an Associate Teaching Professor of Psychology at Penn State University and has served in leadership roles within the American Society for Reproductive Medicine's Mental Health Professional Group.   Key Concepts Covered Mental health symptoms during perimenopause and menopause deserve the same attention as physical symptoms. Anxiety, depression, sleep disruption, feeling overwhelmed, and simply "not feeling like yourself" can all be part of the menopause experience. Women need to understand that these concerns are worth discussing with their healthcare providers. Identity can shift throughout the reproductive lifespan. Infertility, parenthood, perimenopause, and menopause can all challenge a woman's sense of identity. At midlife, women may be balancing roles as parents, partners, caregivers, and professionals while simultaneously experiencing significant changes in their bodies and minds. Workplaces need to make menopause speakable. Sleep deprivation, anxiety, depression, brain fog, migraines, and other symptoms can affect attendance, productivity, confidence, and women's willingness to pursue new opportunities.  Employers should be encouraged to begin by creating space for conversations, offering educational programs such as webinars or lunch-and-learns, and helping managers better understand what employees may be experiencing. There's a need for menopause-trained mental health professionals. Seleni Institute is developing peri/menopause mental health education designed to help expand the number of professionals with specialized knowledge in this area. Building on the model established in perinatal mental health, the goal is to help clinicians recognize concerns, screen appropriately, and connect patients with additional care when needed. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be one tool in the menopause toolbox. There is research supporting CBT for certain menopausal symptoms, including anxiety and depression as well as some vasomotor symptoms. It can be particularly relevant when considering non-hormonal treatment options, although it isn't the only form of therapy that may benefit women. Starting the conversation can be an important first step. When something doesn't feel right, make an appointment with a primary care provider or OB-GYN and speak up, even when having difficulty describing exactly what they're experiencing. Self-advocacy can be an important first step toward finding appropriate care.  Improving perimenopause and menopause care means recognizing that physical and mental health are interconnected. Women need healthcare professionals who understand that connection, employers who make it possible to talk openly about menopause, and mental health professionals with the training to support the unique challenges that can arise during this transition. For women who are thinking, "I just don't feel like myself," the message from this conversation is simple: start talking about it. Make the appointment, raise the issue, and advocate for the support you need. For clinicians and employers, the responsibility is just as important.

Our relationship with food is influenced by far more than nutrition knowledge, and blaming ourselves for struggling doesn't help us understand what's actually happening. Today, I'm joined by clinical psychologist Dr. Rachel Goldman, author of When Life Happens, to talk about the biology and psychology behind cravings, emotional eating, and food noise. We also explore how to care about nutrition without letting food rules take over your life. Here's what we get into: Why you may reach for food when what you really need is rest, comfort, or a break How to pause before an automatic food choice and figure out what's driving it How rigid food rules can turn one choice into a cycle of guilt and overeating How GLP-1s can quiet food noise, and what they can't change about your relationship with food How to build other ways to cope when food has become your go-to response to stress I know what it's like to want the cookie even when I know it isn't what I really need. Knowing better doesn't make us immune to being human. My hope is that this conversation helps you meet those moments with more curiosity and less blame, so your relationship with food can become a source of nourishment rather than stress.

What is the fundamental difference between statistical models and true human intelligence? In this throwback episode of The Edge of AI Podcast, host Ron Levy sits down with Peter Voss, the pioneer, engineer, and scientist who actually coined the term AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) back in 2001.Peter shares the origin story behind naming AGI to distinguish real "thinking machines" from single-use narrow AI systems. He breaks down DARPA's "Three Waves of AI," explaining why current Large Language Models (LLMs) act as externalized statistical tools rather than fluid, real-time adaptive intelligences.Discover Peter's work with Aigo.ai, a proto-AGI engine built on Cognitive AI. Learn how his team successfully automated 3,000 call center agents during Valentine's Day rushes and why he believes true AGI requires cognitive metacognition, concept formation, and a fraction of the energy that modern LLMs consumeSupport us through our Sponsors! ☕ Want to make content like ours?

Dentists have more access to health information, supplements, technology, and wellness strategies than ever, but knowing what to do does not guarantee that those habits will become sustainable. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Dr. Uche Odiatu, a dentist with more than 30 years of experience, about why mindset matters more than chasing the latest health hack. You will learn how to build sustainable health habits, rethink recovery and performance, protect cognitive function, create a healthier relationship with exercise and nutrition, and approach the second half of life with a different perspective.

Dr. Ramon Velazquez, neuroscientist and Scientific Advisor at Mind Lab Pro, discusses the relevance of cognitive endurance to healthy aging and the need to maintain cognitive engagement.  Ramon addresses the dual challenge of modern life, where chronic stress and cognitive overstimulation can impair performance, while insufficient mental challenge also leads to decline. Topics include strategies for brain health, recent neuroscience advances in understanding how the brain can generate new neurons as we age, and the value of exercise, proper nutrition, and cognitive challenges.   Ramon explains, "So cognitive endurance, the way that I think about it, is really the ability to sustain, for example, attention, mental effort, effective thinking over really extended periods of time without a significant decline in performance. So what I think about as an analogy is, if you're an athlete and you are running a marathon, being able to keep up that pace requires endurance. And you can think about that when we're talking about cognitive endurance more in relation to what the brain needs to do in order to achieve that. And why is it becoming more and more important or relevant is the fact that we are starting to really identify ways in which you can improve your cognitive endurance through a variety of different lifestyle factors."   "We can measure this through exams given to an individual, but for the most part, it's really going to be self-report. How does an individual report how they feel after engaging in these mental effort activities? And again, there are various tasks individuals can do that tap into their ability to perform well on a variety of cognitive tasks. But cognitive endurance itself can be tricky to assess because it's going to be, as I mentioned, really self-report: how one feels after engaging in these types of specific mental activities." #MindLabPro #CognitiveEndurance #BrainHealth #HealthcareLeadership #ClinicalWellness #Nootropics #NeuroscienceInPractice #PhysicianWellbeing #MentalPerformance #PreventativeMedicine  mindlabpro.com Listen to the podcast here

Data and analytics are worthless without the human judgment required to make sense of them. In this episode of Behind the Numbers, host Dave Bookbinder sits down with Cheryl Einhorn, creator of the AREA Method and author of The Human Edge, to unpack how business leaders maintain a competitive advantage in an AI-driven marketplace. Together, they explore the hidden traps of modern decision-making, from noisy data and cognitive biases to the hasty choices driven by demands for speed. Cheryl breaks down why human intuition, critical thinking, and structured evaluation remain indispensable tools for navigating high-stakes business environments. Cheryl outlines the core mechanics of her AREA framework (Absolute, Relative, Exploration, Exploitation, Analysis), offering a clear blueprint to escape analysis paralysis. She introduces practical executive tactics, such as building AI "persona boards" to stress-test ideas, taking strategic "cheetah pauses," and spotting dangerous traps like confirmation and availability bias. Listeners gain actionable methods to audit their thinking, recognize algorithmic blind spots, and apply simple daily checks that expose critical evidence gaps. This discussion equips executives to know precisely when to deploy structured frameworks for high-uncertainty, high-cost choices. Cheryl shares a foundational habit every leader can adopt immediately: frame the core problem and outline explicit goals before ever prompting an AI tool. This single practice ensures technology serves as a powerful amplifier for human strategy rather than a replacement for it. Mastering your decision-making process is the ultimate strategic lever for leaders who want to cut through noise and build resilient organizations. About Our Guest: Cheryl Einhorn is the founder and CEO of Decisive, a decision sciences company that trains people and teams in complex problem solving and decision-making skills using the AREA Method.  AREA is an acronym for an evidence-based decision-making system that uniquely controls for and counters cognitive bias to expand knowledge while improving judgment. Cheryl developed AREA during her two decades as an award-winning investigative journalist writing for publications ranging from The New York Times to Foreign Policy Magazine, Barron's and Harvard Business Review. Cheryl is a long time educator, teaching at Columbia University and at Cornell University's SC Johnson School of Business and Cornell Tech. She is the author of three books: Problem Solved, A Powerful System for Making Complex Decisions with Confidence and Conviction, about personal and professional decision-making, and Investing In Financial Research, A Decision-Making System for Better Results about financial and investment decisions. Her new book about Problem Solver Profiles and the psychology of decision-making, Problem Solver, Maximizing Your Strengths To Make Better Decisions, recently won book awards for best psychology book and creative nonfiction book of 2024. Cheryl is also a contributing editor to several books by Harvard Business Review. Learn more by watching her Ted talk and visiting areamethod.com. About the Host: Dave Bookbinder is known as a trusted provider for independent business valuations, corporate asset appraisals, and exit planning advisory and he is the person that business owners and their advisors reach out to when they need to know what their most important assets are worth. Known as a collaborative adviser, Dave has served thousands of client companies of all sizes and industries.  Dave is the author of two #1 best-selling books about the impact of human capital (PEOPLE!) on the valuation of a business enterprise called The NEW ROI: Return On Individuals & The NEW ROI: Going Behind The Numbers.  He's on a mission to change the conversation about how the accounting world recognizes the value of people's contributions to a business enterprise, and to quantify what every CEO on the planet claims: “Our people are this company's most valuable asset.” Dave's book, A Valuation Toolbox for Business Owners and Their Advisors: Things Every Business Owner Should Know, was recognized as a top new release in Business and Valuation and is designed to provide practical insights and tools to help understand what really drives business value, how to prepare for an exit, and just make better decisions. He's also the host of the highly rated Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder business podcast which is enjoyed in more than 100 countries.

What happens when faith becomes more cultural than transformational? In week two of our “A Series for the Ville” series, Pastor Terrence challenges us to examine how Louisville's cultural and religious divisions have shaped the Church—and our individual lives. Following Jesus requires more than participating in religious activities; it requires surrendering every part of ourselves to Him and allowing His Word to transform how we think and live. Together, we explore four temptations that can keep us from experiencing genuine transformation: - Embedded religiosity - Cultural partiality - Cognitive dissonance - Generational disillusionment Rather than simply inheriting a form of faith from our families, churches, or culture, we are called to develop a personal relationship with Jesus, submit our beliefs and preferences to God's Word, and live out a faith that produces real fruit. This service includes: - Worship and communion - Baptisms celebrating new life in Christ - An update from Northeast's Grinstead Campus - A message about resisting cultural conformity - A challenge to examine our lives and strengthen what remains Key Scriptures:

The foundation of a sound financial plan is often built on details and protections that, if ignored, can threaten everything you've worked hard to achieve. This week we're exploring essential but often overlooked vulnerabilities and sharing strategies to patch these potential cracks. Here are the five key areas we cover and how you can fortify your own financial foundation.   1. Liability Protection: Don't Let a Lawsuit Derail Your Finances While building assets and investing wisely matter, many people overlook the need to protect what they've built. If you own a home or a car, you likely have basic homeowners and auto insurance, which generally require liability coverage. But the risk doesn't stop there—a car accident, a mishap at your home, or even kids' playdates can lead to litigation and financial exposure far beyond standard policy limits. Umbrella insurance provides an extra layer of protection, kicking in when your underlying policies are exhausted. Coverage often starts in $1 million increments and is surprisingly affordable, typically just a few hundred dollars per year for each additional million in coverage. Reviewing your net worth and ensuring umbrella policies reflect your exposed assets (especially as they grow) is vital to guard against rare but potentially devastating events.   2. Protecting Your Income: Life and Disability Insurance For most people, income is their single greatest asset. Premature death or disability can eliminate this stream, threatening your family's future lifestyle and goals. Life insurance comes in different forms, but term coverage is widely recommended for its cost-effectiveness. The amount and term length should match your earning years and obligations, with adjustments as your wealth grows and your insurance needs change. Disability insurance is equally critical, covering scenarios where you can no longer work due to injury or illness. Many employers offer policies as a fringe benefit, but private options are available if you need additional coverage. If you cannot qualify because of health issues, planning ahead with your spouse and considering alternatives like reduced spending or downsizing becomes even more important.    3. Incapacity Planning: Financial and Medical Powers of Attorney Even the best-laid financial plans can be upended if you lose the ability to make decisions. Cognitive decline or unexpected accidents can create confusion and hardship for families suddenly tasked with managing your finances. Well-structured power of attorney documents ensure your spouse or trusted advisor can step in smoothly—paying bills, accessing funds, or making medical decisions if you're incapacitated. Review these arrangements regularly, and update them after major life events or relationship changes. Backups to your primary designees are essential in case your initially chosen agents are unable to serve.   4. Estate Planning: Beneficiary Designations and Account Titling When you pass away, how and to whom your assets transfer can get complicated if you don't review them regularly. Beneficiary designations on retirement accounts, insurance policies, and even bank accounts frequently supersede instructions in your will. Major life changes—marriage, divorce, childbirth, or job changes—need updates to your designations. Proper account titling also ensures that your wealth flows directly (and efficiently) to intended recipients. Regular check-ins help prevent disputes and delays in asset distribution at an already difficult time.   5. Adequate Property and Casualty Insurance: Keeping Pace with Change Simply owning insurance isn't enough if your policy doesn't reflect your current situation. Real estate values, renovation projects, and rising costs of materials can all increase the replacement value of your property. If you don't update coverage, you could be responsible for the difference if disaster strikes. Review your homeowners and auto policies proactively—especially after major home remodels or large purchases. Ensure valuable personal property (like jewelry or art) is properly documented and insured with additional riders if needed. A simple policy review or conversation with your agent can prevent an overlooked crack from widening into serious loss.   Don't Overlook the Basics Before chasing the next hot investment or tax-saving strategy, ensure your financial foundation has no hidden weaknesses. Addressing liability, income protection, incapacity planning, estate documents, and adequate insurance will help you sleep easier and keep your goals on track—come what may.      Outline of This Episode [05:12] Importance of life insurance coverage [07:56] Understanding disability insurance basics [10:44] Planning for financial incapacity [15:09] Adjustments required due to real estate appreciation [16:43] Importance of insurance reviews [17:49] Insuring valuable personal property [19:51] Prioritize your foundation before moving on to more complex financial strategies    Resources & People Mentioned The Retirement Podcast Network   Connect With Chad and Mike   https://www.financialsymmetry.com/podcast-archive/  Connect on Twitter @csmithraleigh @TeamFSINC Follow Financial Symmetry on Facebook   Subscribe To This Podcast   Apple Podcasts Stitcher Google Play

Description: If you've spent years believing that being a good Christian means always saying yes, keeping everyone happy, or putting other people's needs ahead of your own, setting boundaries can feel selfish, or even unchristian. But Jesus modeled something very different. He loved people deeply without allowing them to control Him, manipulate Him, or determine His every move. In this episode, we'll look at the ways Jesus practiced healthy boundaries, including saying no, stepping away from the demands of others, making time for rest and prayer, and refusing to be pulled into unproductive arguments. We'll talk about why boundaries can be particularly difficult for trauma and abuse survivors, how guilt and fear can keep us from setting them, and how we can learn to establish boundaries without becoming harsh or unloving. Most importantly, we'll explore the difference between loving others and taking responsibility for them, and how saying “no” can sometimes be an honest and healthy expression of who God created us to be. We'll discuss both the faith and psychology sides of setting boundaries. If you've struggled with guilt when setting boundaries, this episode is an invitation to rethink what it means to love others while also caring for yourself. Breakdown of Episode  3:17 Intro to Topic and What Are Boundaries?16:37 Jesus Loved People Without Being Controlled by Them18:31 Jesus Prioritized Rest and Time With God22:06 Jesus Didn't Engage in Every Argument But Confronted Harmful Behavior27:59 Jesus, Boundaries, and Family Expectations29:41 The Psychology of Healthy Boundaries35:52 Practicing Christ-Like Boundaries and Handling PushbackSourcesBiblical SourcesHoly Bible, New International Version.

In this episode, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden and psychiatrist Dr. Matt Bernstein discuss the evolving landscape of mental health treatment. Bernstein shares his extensive experience in psychiatry, particularly with serious mental health conditions, and highlights the limitations of traditional medication approaches. He advocates for a more holistic view that considers metabolic health and mitochondrial function as critical components in understanding and treating mental health issues. The conversation also delves into the benefits of the ketogenic diet, cognitive flexibility, and the complexities of medication management in psychiatric care. In this conversation, Dr. Gladden and Matt Bernstein explore the intricate relationship between mental health, metabolism, exercise, and the role of psychedelics in therapy. They discuss the negative metabolic impacts of psychotropic medications, the significant benefits of exercise for mental health, and the importance of understanding individual genetics in managing depression. The conversation also delves into the role of lactate in brain health, mitochondrial function, and the potential of psychedelic therapies for personal transformation.
