Send us a textSurviving trauma isn't evidence of brokenness—it's proof of extraordinary strength. Yet traditional therapy approaches often miss this crucial reality, focusing instead on deficits and pathology while forcing survivors to relive painful experiences without first creating safety.In this powerful conversation, therapist and trauma survivor Oli Doyle joins David and Ruth to challenge conventional therapeutic wisdom that keeps trauma survivors stuck in cycles of shame and self-blame. Together, they explore how true healing begins with recognizing the remarkable resilience that allowed survivors to endure seemingly impossible circumstances.“How the hell are you sitting in front of me still alive, still breathing? How have you done that?” Oli asks his clients, shifting focus away from pathologizing trauma responses toward honoring the ingenuity that enabled survival. This perspective represents a radical departure from approaches that ask, "What's wrong with you?" instead of, “What happened to you and how did you survive it?”The discussion delves into how trauma lives in our bodies, requiring more than verbal processing for healing. Ruth explains, “You can't talk your way out of a body response. You have to use body-based strategies to help the body get through that moment.” This embodied understanding of trauma recognizes that memories live in our tissues, manifesting as behaviors that once served protective functions but may now cause suffering.Beyond individual healing, the conversation challenges the cultural narrative that personal choices determine outcomes regardless of context. As Oli notes, “What we've been taught in colonial cultures is that contexts and structural factors don't matter. If you just make the right choices, you'll have a good life.” This individualistic perspective serves systems of power while obscuring how structural inequities shape trauma and limit options.For mental health professionals, this episode offers a powerful invitation to examine implicit biases and deficit-focused approaches. For survivors, it provides validation that survival itself represents an extraordinary achievement worthy of recognition and respect. And for everyone, it illuminates how honouring survivor strengths rather than focusing on brokenness creates pathways to genuine healing and post-traumatic growth. Now available!

I was recently asked the question “Should I refeed once a week if I'm in a calorie deficit?”I love this question (I always love when you send me your questions btw!), but honestly…it depends.Like most things in the health and fitness world, there's no “one-size-fits-all” answer.Before you start talking about refeed days, carb cycling, or any other advanced strategies, you've got to ask yourself an important question: “Am I even in a consistent deficit to begin with?”The reality is, most people aren't. Even if you're “eating clean,” hitting your macros Monday through Friday, but you're winging it on the weekends, you're not *truly* in a calorie deficit! If you're not tracking your intake honestly AND consistently, your coach (whether that's me or someone else) can't help you. Tools like refeed days won't either.If you're feeling stuck or frustrated with your progress, you don't need fancier nutrition hacks or more cardio. You need to get your foundation dialed in FIRST, and give yourself time in a true calorie deficit! In this episode, we cover:Why you need to be sure you're in a true calorie deficit before trying tools like refeed daysWhat a calorie deficit actually means + why honest tracking mattersCommon signs you're not in a real deficitHow to get into a consistent calorie deficit the RIGHT wayLinks/Resources:Ep. 193 | Unf*ck the Middle: Why You're Not “Stuck” - You're in MaintenanceEp. 178 | Maintenance Calories 101: Building Strength, Hormonal Health & Food FreedomJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

Gli analisti Fmi lodano l'Italia per occupazione ai massimi storici e drastica riduzione del deficit ottenuta con disciplina fiscale, riconoscono il ritorno anticipato dell'avanzo primario senza penalizzare l'economia reale sostenuta da politiche pro-crescita e da un'occupazione record, notano spread sotto quota 90, ma avvertono che in un contesto di dazi Usa e tensioni geopolitiche un Paese ad alto debito resta esposto; proiezioni: crescita moderata (0,5% 2025, 0,8% 2026, 0,6% 2027), deficit al 3,3% nel 2025 e poi sotto 3% nei due anni successivi, debito circa 1 punto Pil sopra la traiettoria del Mef; il Fondo chiede avanzo primario al 3% nel 2027 (vs 1,5% obiettivo governo), più controllo su spesa pensioni, garanzie statali e inefficienze, e segnala risultati positivi su compliance fiscale evidenziati da Giorgetti e Leo. Ne parliamo con Gianni Trovati, Il Sole 24 Ore.Mutui, richieste su del 20% e boom di surroghe sulla scia del calo dei tassiIl Barometro Crif mostra nel primo semestre 2025 richieste di mutui e surroghe +20% sull'anno prima (picchi +26,8% gennaio e +25,8% aprile), importo medio 152.109 euro (+4,4%), surroghe all'80% del totale e +63,2% nel primo trimestre anno su anno spinte da famiglie che rinegoziano tassi variabili onerosi o fissi alti dopo otto tagli Bce; oggi circa 90% preferisce il fisso (variabile scelto da pochi per costo attuale ma rischio futuro), il mercato rimbalza dopo il congelamento 2022-2024 dovuto all'impennata dei tassi e al clima negativo, sostenuto da calo inflazione, chiarezza di politica monetaria, mutui green legati all'efficienza energetica e incentivi, oltre a canoni d'affitto crescenti che rendono l'acquisto più conveniente; banche caute sulla qualità del credito ma attive con campagne, vigilando sul rischio di surroghe rapide. Il commento è di Simone Capecchi, Executive Director di CRIF.In crescita i vacanzieri estivi: previsioni positive per il turismo italiano del 2025Le previsioni Turism forecast summer Demoskopika indicano per giugno-settembre 2025 65,8 milioni di arrivi (+3,4% sul 2024) e 267,4 milioni di pernottamenti (+2,1%) per 38 miliardi di spesa diretta, con +2,2 milioni di turisti e +5,4 milioni di notti (media +2,4 notti), italiani in aumento del 5,5% e stranieri +1,7% negli arrivi ma presenze sostanzialmente stabili (quota estera 51,6%, 35,7 milioni arrivi, circa 138 milioni notti); la spesa pro capite scende da 608 euro (2024) a 593 euro (2025) segnalando viaggi più prudenti e soggiorni più brevi sotto pressione costi e competizione internazionale; i ricercatori sollecitano governance più proattiva e investimenti in qualità, innovazione e sostenibilità per convertire la crescita quantitativa in valore; la stima di spesa comprende ricettivo, ristorazione, trasporti, noleggi, servizi di agenzia, culturali, sportivi ricreativi, shopping e altre voci.

In a sitdown interview with Kyle Clark of 9 News, Denver mayor Mike Johnston makes no apologies for spending $250 million on temporary housing for homeless and access to services for illegal aliens in the city. Instead, he defers blame to the Trump administration pulling federal funding and on tariffs imposed by President Trump overseas. He also speaks of creating 'moments of joy' on 16th Street and in the downtown vicinity. How does he plan to go about doing that?

In this mind-opening episode of Impact Theory, Tom Bilyeu sits down with Stephen Bonnell, known online as Destiny, one of the most prolific and thought-provoking political streamers of our time. Destiny, with his razor-sharp logic and fearless approach, challenges Tom—and the audience—to reevaluate their assumptions about what it will take to “make America great.” Together, they tackle the roots of America's dysfunction: division, distrust, debt, inequality, and the myth of political heroism on both sides of the aisle. The first half of this two-part conversation digs into the realities of America's fiscal crisis, cycles of Republican and Democratic leadership, the real drivers behind national debt, and the impact of partisan policy on America's economic future. Tom and Destiny debate the measurable KPIs of economic pain, the role of tax cuts and deficits, and the endlessly controversial question of “who's to blame” for America's budgetary freefall. They draw hard lines between rhetoric and reality, examining how populism, money printing, and the culture of “free stuff” have become major obstacles to meaningful reform. With both men refusing to pull their punches, this Part 1 episode is packed with sharp exchanges, nuanced economic breakdowns, and a relentless search for practical solutions in an era of political theater.

Elon Musk's embrace of President Trump and his campaign marked a pivotal moment in the 2024 presidential election. Musk was eventually appointed to head the newly established Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), where he was tasked with cutting federal spending and reducing the national debt. DOGE moved quickly and decisively, triggering lawsuits and further enraging Trump's critics. Although Musk has since left the Trump administration and experienced a very public fallout with President Trump, DOGE continues to operate and make an impact. Matthew Continetti, Director of Domestic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute, joined FOX News Rundown host Jessica Rosenthal to discuss DOGE, highlighting where it was effective in cutting waste, fraud, and abuse, and where it fell short of the expectations set by Musk and the administration. Continetti, who is featured in FOX Nation's new documentary "DOGE vs. DC," also weighs in on the public spat between Musk and the President, as well as the challenges politicians face when addressing America's debt seriously.

This year's big fiscal package, officially titled the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), extends the TCJA's tax cuts, increases spending on defense and immigration enforcement, significantly cuts Medicaid expenditures, and increases the debt ceiling by $5tn. The law's budgetary impact will depend on the path of interest rates, how the economy responds to its various incentives, and whether temporary provisions are eventually made permanent. In this episode, we talk with Rachel Snyderman, Managing Director of Economic Policy at the Bipartisan Policy Center, about the OBBBA's most significant provisions, its impact on federal deficits, and the ways it could affect growth and interest rates.

The discussion centered on the concept of "deficit delusion," where Kerry Lutz and John Tamny argued that the perceived crisis of government debt is a misinterpretation, attributing the real issue to excessive government resource consumption. John highlighted that government spending limits societal advancement, while Kerry pointed out that the current system facilitates easy borrowing through excessive revenue collection. They characterized the situation as a form of theft through taxation, emphasizing that high levels of government intervention lead to economic inefficiencies and lost opportunities for taxpayers. They suggested that maintaining government spending at historical levels could have significantly enhanced national wealth. The conversation also explored the relationship between personal mental states and economic perceptions, with John asserting that savings drive economic growth more than consumption. They discussed the importance of individual economic freedom and the detrimental effects of policies that restrict wealth and trade. Kerry advocated for improved economic education, drawing parallels to successful public health campaigns, while John critiqued the dominance of Keynesian thought in economic education. They further examined the implications of currency stability on economic health, criticizing past administrations for dollar devaluation. The discussion concluded with reflections on the significance of John's upcoming book, "The Deficit Delusion."

Hedge fund founder, author, and one of the top influences in the financial world, Ray Dalio has written about how countries (or, in his parlance, “empires”) find themselves in irreversible doom spirals, covered in depth in his new book, How Countries Go Broke: The Big Cycle. So, I wanted to talk to him about the fiscal hot potato being passed back and forth between the House and the Senate that threatens to explode our deficit past the point of no return.
