    The Thyroid Fix

    What if the real reason you're tired, losing muscle, or struggling to heal has less to do with hormones and everything to do with protein and amino acids? In this episode, I sit down with Angelo Keely from Kion to unpack the science behind muscle preservation, recovery, and aging—and why most women (especially in perimenopause and menopause) are severely under-fueled when it comes to protein. We dive into what happens to your body under stress—from surgery to dieting to GLP-1 medications—and how essential amino acids can change the game for your energy, metabolism, and longevity. You'll learn how to heal faster, lose fat without losing muscle, and protect your body as your hormones shift. We break down how much protein women actually need, the truth about plant vs. animal sources, and why pairing aminos with your protein powder can supercharge results. If you've ever wondered why your energy crashes, your hair won't grow, or your body feels weaker with age, this episode will completely change how you think about protein—and how you use it to feel strong, lean, and alive again.

    Both hosts are getting an MRI soon, and now they're worried because some dude got killed by a machine recently when he wore a necklace into the MRI room. We hear what really happened today. We speculate about what we would get arrested for if we ever get arrested. Susie recounts the time she almost went to jail over breakfast, and Sarah claims she almost had to sue someone over mismatched carpet. Sarah watched an incredible documentary, and we can't believe what the topic of it is: extreme birdwatching. We learn why these birders are very competitive, strict with the rules, and are willing to spend a lot of money looking to see more species. Hear about the birding scandal that rocked their "honor system" and what they think about apps that help you identify and track birds.Brain Candy Podcast Presents: Susie & Sarah's SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle, October 30, Oriental Theater, Denver, Colorado: Get your tickets!

    We're facing a fertility crisis that few people are truly talking about. Sperm counts have dropped by more than 50% in the last 50 years, infertility now affects 1 in 5 couples, and modern stress, toxins, and lifestyle shifts are making it harder than ever to conceive. But there is hope — and it starts with awareness. In this episode of HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with Ronit Menashe, co-founder of WeNatal, to explore the future of fertility and what every couple needs to know before trying to conceive. Ronit opens up about her personal journey of loss, discovery, and purpose that led her to create a company reshaping how we think about preconception health — for both women and men. Together we dive into the often-overlooked role of male fertility, the concept of “Trimester Zero” (the 100 days before conception that set the stage for pregnancy health), and why lifestyle factors like sleep, stress, toxins, and diet play such a powerful role in outcomes. We also touch on sensitive but necessary conversations around miscarriage, hormone health, birth control, and the emotional toll of the fertility journey. This episode is equal parts science, story, and soul — a guide to reclaiming hope, preparing your body, and reframing fertility as an opportunity for empowerment rather than fear. Whether you're just beginning to think about starting a family, navigating infertility, or simply curious about the hidden links between environment, lifestyle, and reproductive health, this conversation will leave you with knowledge, tools, and inspiration to move forward with clarity.

Social isolation is when a person objectively doesn't have relationships or contact with others. It's similar to loneliness, which is when people subjectively feel isolated. Both are rampant in rural communities, especially among older residents. And because social isolation is tied closely to other health outcomes, it has implications for all. Rural Voice in Wadena Wadena residents swapped stories of recognizing isolation in their community. They also shared ideas for combatting it, which ranged from systemic overhauls, like bringing in more therapists, to more personal interventions, like how churches and community organizations can respond to neighbors who seem alone.  Subscribe to the MPR News with Angela Davis podcast on: Apple Podcasts, Spotify or RSS.

Break 1: Ingles Markets 3 STORY 1: Truck driver charged in I-85 crash that killed Gwinnett family A Gainesville truck driver, Kane Aaron Hammock, 33, is facing 12 charges after a devastating six-vehicle crash on I-85 in Jackson County that killed eight members of the same Gwinnett County family. The Georgia State Patrol said Hammock’s semi was following too closely and slammed into a 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan, sparking a chain reaction. The van and semi burst into flames. The victims, reportedly on their way to Tanger Outlets, included three adults, five children, and possibly an unborn baby. Names released by family include Kenia Ramirez, 22, who was pregnant, and her 4-year-old daughter, Kayle. The tragedy has left a community reeling. STORY 2: Alice Kim Appointed to Gwinnett Place CID Board of Directors The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners has tapped Alice Kim, financial director of Nam Dae Mun Farmers Market, to join the Gwinnett Place CID board of directors. She steps in for June Lee, a long-time member who resigned last month. Kim brings over 20 years of experience steering Nam Dae Mun’s financial growth—think rebranding, expansion to eight Georgia locations, and major capital projects. She’s also a pro at supply chain management and HR. STORY 3: Longtime Gwinnett resident joins Northeast Georgia Physicians Group in Dacula  For Dr. Khaja Ahmed, healthcare isn’t just a job—it’s personal. After more than 20 years practicing in Georgia, the longtime Gwinnett resident is joining Northeast Georgia Physicians Group Dacula, staying close to the community where he’s lived, worked, and raised his family. “Being there for my patients, through every step of their health journey, is what drives me,” Ahmed said.

    How to Set the Foundation for Community with Peter Panepento

    Mission Forward

    This is a story about invisible infrastructure—the kind you only notice when it's gone. Peter Panepento started his career covering planning board meetings for a weekly newspaper in upstate New York, watching in real time as the binding agents of community life dissolved. Now he runs a communications agency working with community foundations, institutions that have operated in nearly every American community for over a hundred years but remain mysterious to most people. The puzzle he's trying to solve: How do you create recognition for something designed to fade into the background?Panepento's solution was counterintuitive. Instead of emphasizing how different each of the 900 community foundations is, he found the common thread: they all "Make More Possible." It's a template simple enough to be universal but flexible enough to contain multitudes. His team also conducted the first field-wide benchmarking survey of community foundation communications and found something troubling—93% lack adequate budgets, half expect resources to decrease, and most have no crisis plans. At the exact moment when clear communication has become existentially important, the people responsible for it are being asked to do more with less.Peter joins Carrie this week to explore two models of community-building that work precisely because they're ordinary. The Chicago Community Trust hosts "On the Table"—thousands of simultaneous conversations over meals where neighbors discuss what matters. The Black Belt Community Foundation in Selma, Alabama, has moved over $100 million in 20 years by giving actual grant-making power to local volunteers in each county. They were practicing trust-based philanthropy before anyone coined the term. These aren't flashy programs—they're deliberately low-tech interventions designed to restore something simple: the habit of looking your neighbors in the eye and finding common ground.The broader lesson isn't really about community foundations at all. It's about the challenge of making essential infrastructure visible. Whether it's local journalism, public health systems, or civic institutions, the things that hold society together tend to be the things we notice only when they break. We're living through what might be called the great unbundling of American civic life—the institutions that once created shared spaces have either disappeared or fragmented into a thousand digital pieces. Community foundations are one of the few remaining institutions with the potential to be what Panepento calls "community conveners." But they can only play that role if people know they exist.Links & NotesTurn Two Communications & First-Ever Communications Benchmarking SurveyFind your local community foundationChicago Community Trust - On the Table initiativeBlack Belt Community Foundation, Selma, Alabama (00:00) - Welcome to Mission Forward (01:59) - Introducing Peter Panapento (05:39) - The Role of the Community Foundation (12:07) - "Make More Possible" (15:01) - Survey Results (27:09) - A Community Foundation in Action _____This episode is supported by The Johnson Foundation at Wingspread.

    “Vernacular is what you do when you can't afford to get it wrong.”Carley ChastainEpisode Summary:This episode of The Zweig Letter Podcast, hosted by Randy Wilburn and joined by marketing co-host Luke Carothers, traces Carley Chastain's unique path through the architecture profession. Carley, an emerging architectural professional at Marlon Blackwell Architects in Northwest Arkansas, shares how she was drawn to architecture not by tradition, but by curiosity, community, and a keen desire to make the built environment serve real people.From Auburn University's Rural Studio—where students design and build for underserved communities—to Mass Design Group's healthcare infrastructure projects in Rwanda, Carley unpacks the transformative power of purpose-driven design. Her journey from Alabama to Montana, Boston, and Kigali has shaped her approach to design as one focused on social impact, community resilience, and equity. Listeners will gain perspective on how intentional architecture can shape lives, tackle rural housing and infrastructure gaps, and deliver facilities that truly respond to community needs.The conversation also spotlights the next generation of AEC professionals prioritizing equity, resilience, and local advocacy. Carley's reflections offer valuable strategies for increasing diversity, retaining talent, and ensuring architecture's continued relevance for the future.Key Takeaways:Community-first Design: Purposeful engagement with local people and issues creates projects that are meaningful and sustainable—whether it's rural housing or urban centers.Tackling Obstacles Holistically: Carley's experience on the $20K House and the Front Porch Initiative demonstrates how architects can identify and address systemic barriers like access to fire stations and insurance, not just building design.Value of Diverse Experience: Exposure to international practice and local development, as well as cross-disciplinary networking, gives young professionals context and resilience—qualities vital for evolving the AEC industry.Advocacy and Retention: To retain diverse talent, firms must foster strong community connections, empower staff with local resources, and invest in personal and professional development.Importance of Public Health: Architecture's role extends to building infrastructure that supports public health and preventive care—a lesson Carley saw firsthand with Mass Design Group in Kigali and current healthcare projects in Arkansas.All this and more on this episode of the Zweig Letter podcast.Links referenced in this episode:Marlon Blackwell Architects: https://www.marlonblackwell.com/Mass Design Group: https://www.massdesigngroup.org/Auburn University Rural Studio: https://ruralstudio.org/Contact Carley Chastain: carley@marlonblackwell.comConnect with Carley Chastain on LinkedInLearn about

    Listen now on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.—In our conversation, we discuss:* Why traditional org charts and career ladders are breaking down and what that means for researchers and designers.* How AI and startup culture are reshaping roles, shrinking teams, and pushing senior-level decisions onto mid-level professionals.* Why most people feel unprepared for their new responsibilities and how to close the gap without waiting for formal mentorship.* How to build your own “board of directors” through small acts of generosity and curiosity.Some takeaways:* Org charts are collapsing and it's changing everything. Many companies, especially in tech, are shrinking their teams while still aiming for scale. That means fewer senior leaders and more ICs making high-stakes decisions without traditional support. The result: mid-level professionals find themselves thrown into strategy roles they never trained for. This indicates a shift in how companies operate at their core.* There's no playbook for where we're headed. You can't Google your way out of the complexity of hybrid roles. When someone's a lead on paper but making director-level calls with no mentorship, the usual advice doesn't cut it. People need better access to real conversations and fast feedback loops. Mindaugas recommends building your own crew of people to talk things through, not just reading another Medium post.* The people who navigate change best aren't trying to be the smartest in the room. They're collecting diverse perspectives, asking for honest takes, and updating their opinions as they learn. In a noisy world of LinkedIn hot takes, this kind of thoughtful input often comes from quiet backchannels. Building those backchannels takes intention, not perfection.* Don't start with the ask. Start with curiosity. One of the best ways to build strong professional relationships is to reach out with zero agenda. A quick note saying “I appreciated your talk/post/article” stands out precisely because nobody does it anymore. When you do that over time, you create a trail of goodwill so when the time comes for an ask, you're not a stranger. Mindaugas shares how this approach helped him build a global network from scratch.* Mid-level is now the pressure point of modern orgs. Senior ICs are being handed business-critical decisions without context, coaching, or peers to learn from. Community matters as a practical scaffolding for decision-making and finding those people is the key to helping you get to your next level, and push through that mid-level ceilingWhere to find Mindaugas:* LinkedInStop piecing it together.

    Pressure reveals culture. When a match started sliding the wrong way, we broke down the split-second coaching choice that changes everything: speak and control, or listen and trust. What followed was a raw look at accountability on the field, no finger-pointing, just honest self-checks, sharper communication, and a team that chose ownership over excuses. We talk through what calm leadership actually looks like, the subtle cues that guide better decisions, and why restraint can be the most powerful move a coach makes.From there, we zoom out to the bigger picture shaping the region's game. With Ozark United FC entering the scene, recruiting gets a genuine lift: international prospects see a real soccer community, local players feel a tangible pathway, and the standards around training, recovery, and mentality rise. We dive into how a pro presence changes the calculus for athletes and coaches, creating more touchpoints with high-level play, opening doors for standout talents, and building a pipeline where college, academy, and pro connect instead of competing.What excites us most is the community impact. A pro club becomes a weekly ritual, a place where families, alumni, and young players connect with the sport at a higher level. We share how collaboration across youth programs, colleges, and the new club can spark coaching exchanges, joint events, and elevated expectations that benefit everyone.
