    Perinatal mental health is often a misunderstood landscape shaped by stigma, cultural expectations, and invisible struggles that touch entire families. In this replay episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker sits down with Dr. Kat Kaeni, perinatal mental health certified psychologist, author of The Pregnancy Workbook, and host of the Mom & Mind podcast, to break the silence around postpartum anxiety, depression, OCD, and psychosis. Drawing on her professional expertise and personal experience, Dr. Kat reveals why shame and isolation are so common, how symptoms really show up for new parents, and what makes perinatal mental health distinct from other forms of mental illness. They discuss the myths that keep parents suffering in silence, the real impact of mental health on babies and families, and how therapy and support groups, including free resources from Postpartum Support International, can empower families on the path to healing. Content Warning: This episode includes discussions of perinatal mental health disorders, including postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD, and psychosis. Sensitive topics such as intrusive thoughts, stigma, feelings of guilt and shame, and the potential for harm to self or others are addressed. Listener discretion is advised, and we encourage anyone who may be affected by these topics to reach out for support through Postpartum Support International or a trusted healthcare provider.

    Rest and recreation are essential tools for resilience and good mental health as they help support the biological rhythms your body is already running. We'll dig into these rhythms more in this episode by breaking down three layers of the body's natural cycles: Ultradian rhythms (the short cycles within each day), circadian rhythms (24 hour cycle), and infradian rhythms (longer cycles like menstruation and seasonal changes). The practical thread through all three is the same: manage energy, not time. Notice your rhythm and do your best to honor what your body is telling you.   Note: This is an encore episode, originally aired during Joy Lab's Roots of Resilience Series (Element: Resilience). It's replaying here to close the month of Re-Creation because it goes straight to the biological foundation of why rest and recreation aren't optional extras — they are literally built into your body. As Aimee puts it in her intro: these rhythms are not something to fight. They're something to come home to.   About: The Joy Lab Podcast is an Ambie-nominated podcast that blends science and soul to help you cope better with stress, anxiety, and depression. It's hosted by integrative psychiatrist Dr. Henry Emmons and holistic mental health researcher Dr. Aimee Prasek. The podcast is best paired with the Joy Lab App.   Bonus: spread some joy and keep this podcast ad-free by donating (Joy Lab is powered by the nonprofit Pathways North and your donations are tax-deductible).   Listen & follow the Joy Lab Podcast on your favorite listening app: Spotify | Apple | YouTube   Full transcript here   Sources and Notes: Joy Lab Experiments: Take the next leap in your wellbeing journey with step-by-step practices to help you build and maintain the elements of joy in your life. Joy Lab episodes referenced: Joy Lab Podcast #13 (The Roots of Resilience) This episode is a broad overview of what we'll be talking about over the next 9 episodes. It's a really helpful summary!  Roots of Resilience Series starts with episode #53: Roots of Resilience Chemistry of Calm (Dr. Emmons' book referenced in this series) The 20 Minute Break (book) Linnaeus' Flower Clock How does the brain deal with cumulative stress? A review with focus on developmental stress, HPA axis function and hippocampal structure in humans Cumulative Stress and Health   Questions this episode was made for:   Q: Why do I crash mid-afternoon and feel like I can't focus no matter how hard I try? A: That's your ultradian rhythm doing exactly what it's designed to do. This episode explains the 60-to-90-minute focus window, why pushing through leads to a steeper crash, and what a 15-to-20-minute break actually does to restore your brain's capacity.   Q: Could my sleep or stress problems be connected to my hormones being out of rhythm? A: It's certainly possible. This episode walks through how cortisol fluctuates naturally across 24 hours, what happens when that pattern gets disrupted by chronic stress (including the classic 3 AM wake-up), and how protecting your sleep is the single most powerful thing you can do to help let your system rebalance itself.    Key moments: [00:00] Aimee's intro to the encore: this episode closes the month of Re-Creation by grounding rest in biology — rhythms aren't optional, they're built in [01:00] Welcome — the Element of Resilience, Roots of Resilience Series, third root: aligning with nature [01:30] Henry: bio-rhythms might be the most important and most easily ignored root of resilience [02:00] Natural world runs on cycles — plants and animals fall in line naturally; humans have the choice to ignore or fight them  [03:00] Inside the body: hormones, energy, focus, and mood are all directly shaped by these rhythms [03:30] Depression can be a problem with internal timing — getting out of sync with bio-rhythms; Chronobiology and body-clock research: a booming field; SAD as a familiar example of seasonal rhythm [04:30] Three rhythms to cover: ultradian (under 24 hours), circadian (24 hours), infradian (more than 24 hours) [05:00] Ultradian rhythms: most overlooked, most ignored in the typical workday; What we do instead: push through, reach for sugar or caffeine, experiment with nootropics — when the body is asking for a break [07:00] Henry: managing energy rather than time — noticing when you're fading and honoring it early before the crash [08:00] Dr. Anders Ericsson's violinist study: comparing professional soloists with good-but-not-great performers [10:00] The lesson: excellence came from tending to rhythms, not from fighting through them — more practice was possible because of better recovery [10:30] Transition to circadian rhythms — sleep is the big one here [11:30] Henry: sleep might be the best mood stabilizer available — the research is unambiguous; People with depression + sleep problems who improve their sleep double their chances of recovery [12:00] People without depression who develop sleep problems double their risk of becoming depressed [12:30] Cortisol fluctuates naturally over 24 hours — lowest during deep sleep, starts rising around 3–4 AM, peaks in morning, dips post-lunch, rises again mid-afternoon, declines through evening [13:30] The post-lunch cortisol dip: a natural signal for rest, a walk, or a nap [14:00] The HPA axis (hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenal): when this gets out of sync, depression can follow [14:30] Aimee: the 3–4 AM cortisol surge — when under stress, that's exactly when people wake up and can't get back to sleep [15:30] Mood problems can arise or worsen from fighting these natural cycles — enormous friction and energy wasted [16:00] Ways to tap into circadian rhythm: notice the animals and nature around you — dogs, chickens, birds, flowers [17:30] Light exposure: get bright light in the first 1–2 hours after waking; dim lights significantly in the evening [18:00] In winter: dawn simulator or bright light device in the morning; 15-minute session around 5 PM to help set sleep timing [20:00] Adrenal fatigue: when stress goes on long enough, adrenal glands become overtaxed — a state of profound depletion, controversial but real [20:30] Possible connection to long COVID — a pattern Henry has seen clinically [21:30] Infradian rhythms: cycles longer than 24 hours — less obvious but powerful when you become aware of them [22:00] Two key infradian rhythms for mental health: menstruation and seasonal affective disorder [22:30] Menstruation: predictable changes in mood, energy, and sleep — part of a sophisticated, elegant cycle [24:30] Seasonal depression: root cause is the change in circadian rhythm — shorter days disrupt bio-rhythms [25:00] Henry's short course on SAD: convince your body it's not the middle of winter — bright light early and late, fresh light foods, keep moving [26:00] Closing wisdom from Lao-Tzu: "Nature does not hurry.

    Dolly Parton, the country singer, songwriter, entertainer and entrepreneur whose rags-to-riches story, outsize persona and prodigious vision and talent placed her in a class by herself, died on Tuesday in Nashville. She was 80.The death was announced in a video posted on social media by her nephew, Bryan Seaver. No cause was provided. Concerns about Ms. Parton's health, which began last year as she postponed and later canceled a Las Vegas residency, grew to the point that she took to social media last fall to confirm that “I ain't dead yet.” In May, she said she had responded well to treatment after, as she put it, her immune and digestive systems “got all out of whack” in recent years.Ms. Parton's life, as depicted in autobiographical songs like “Coat of Many Colors” and “My Tennessee Mountain Home,” was the stuff of make-believe, from her hardscrabble beginnings in Appalachia to her glittering stardom in Nashville and beyond.The writer Chet Flippo likened her to the Big Rock Candy Mountain, the Depression-era symbol of abundance personified by Ms. Parton's voluptuous figure, rhinestone-studded stage costumes and blonde bouffant wigs. Her songs spoke to millions, confronting privation and loss even as they radiated possibility and hope.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    What do you do when your sins feel too heavy to carry, when your closest friends turn against you, or when you look at the world and wonder why the wicked seem to prosper while the faithful suffer? In Psalms 49–101, the psalmists give voice to our rawest cries, leading us from the depths of personal brokenness straight into the healing sanctuary of God. Summary: In this moving exploration of Psalms 49–101, we walk through the second major collection of the Hebrew Psalter. Moving between searing prayers of confession and breathtaking anthems of praise, these chapters provide an emotional and spiritual compass for every trial of mortality. The Agony of Confession: We dissect Psalm 51, David's brokenhearted plea after Nathan confronted him regarding Bathsheba. We examine what it means to offer a "broken and a contrite heart," asking God not just for a pardon, but to "create in me a clean heart". The Sting of Betrayal: In Psalm 55, we explore David's lament over being betrayed not by an open enemy, but by an equal and trusted companion—a passage that powerfully foreshadows Judas's betrayal of Jesus Christ. Envy and the Sanctuary Perspective: We study Asaph's crisis of faith in Psalm 73, where his feet almost slipped while envying the ease of the worldly—until he entered the sanctuary of God and understood their end. Tears in a Bottle & God's Memory: We dive into Psalm 56, discovering the tender truth that God numbers our wanderings, stores our tears in His bottle, and never leaves us to face mortality alone. Divine Potential and Council: We analyze Psalm 82, exploring the divine council and the Savior's quotation of verse 6 ("Ye are gods") to understand the balance between human humility and divine heritage. Entering His Gates with Praise: We conclude with the exuberant joy of Psalm 100, examining the seven invitations to worship and the remarkable story of how the Spirit prompted B. H. Roberts to read this exact psalm in a moment of public trial. Call-to-Action: When your heart feels overwhelmed, David pleads: "Lead me to the rock that is higher than I" (Psalm 61:2).

    Public leadership doesn't mean that the “leader” has to have all the solutions, but instead must be open to others with problem-solving ideas.That was one of Franklin Roosevelt's great strengths when he came into the White House. Facing the full-blown crisis of a national Depression, he brought his top advisors together with an open mandate for creativity: “Do Something,” he told them. “If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't work, do something else.”In some surprisingly good news, this spirit of innovative public leadership is flourishing today! Not at the national level, of course, where top federal officials are right-wing ideologues who obsequiously bow to “WDW” (Whatever Donald Wants). But hundreds of local and state officials across America are using their heads, hands, and imaginations to “do something” about the real problems our people face.School districts, for example. Many are facing a double whammy: First, developers and their politicians have gentrified many cities so severely that teachers and staff can't afford to live there; second a right-wing push for school consolidations and closures has left many campuses vacant. But could one problem plus the other one add up to zero?Yes, say education innovators in such districts as San Diego, Austin, and South Miami. Leaders there and elsewhere are converting vacated classrooms, offices, and school yards into high-quality family apartment complexes. They'll house several thousand teachers, janitors, and others, cutting rents by 50 percent or better!Encouraging this kind of free-wheeling problem-solving is not just thinking outside the box, it's eliminating the box.

    Your labs confirmed the autoimmune diagnosis. The hardest symptom turned out to be the one nobody prepared you for. Dr. Aimie goes solo on depression and autoimmunity, and which one actually comes first. The answer is less orderly than the one most people are given, and it changes what to do about it. ➡️ Full show notes and research: CLICK HERE Most people are told depression is a reasonable response to being ill. Dr. Aimie interrupts that conclusion with what the research shows: each condition carries close to double the risk of the other, depression turns up in the two years before a diagnosis is made, and roughly a quarter of the link between early adversity and autoimmune disease appears to travel through mental health on the way. She also walks through why this depression rarely feels like sadness, and why the medication may have underperformed. She was on two of them herself, and the hardest part was not the depression. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: 0:00 The hardest symptom of an autoimmune diagnosis 02:41 — Why is depression treated as the reasonable response to a diagnosis? 04:49 — What does double the risk actually mean for you? 07:58 — What is a dose-response pattern and why does it matter? 09:45 — Where does the childhood adversity evidence stop? 12:19 — What does it mean that depression mediates part of the link? 13:54 — What happens when your cells stop responding to cortisol? 15:55 — Why does this feel like the flu rather than sadness? 20:48 — Why has working on your thoughts not moved it? 22:55 — Why do antidepressants underperform here? 24:54 — What does the infliximab trial actually prove? 28:48 — Where do you start when both are running?

    Dolly Parton, the country singer, songwriter, entertainer and entrepreneur whose rags-to-riches story, outsize persona and prodigious vision and talent placed her in a class by herself, died on Tuesday in Nashville. She was 80.The death was announced in a video posted on social media by her nephew, Bryan Seaver. No cause was provided. Concerns about Ms. Parton's health, which began last year as she postponed and later canceled a Las Vegas residency, grew to the point that she took to social media last fall to confirm that “I ain't dead yet.” In May, she said she had responded well to treatment after, as she put it, her immune and digestive systems “got all out of whack” in recent years.Ms. Parton's life, as depicted in autobiographical songs like “Coat of Many Colors” and “My Tennessee Mountain Home,” was the stuff of make-believe, from her hardscrabble beginnings in Appalachia to her glittering stardom in Nashville and beyond.The writer Chet Flippo likened her to the Big Rock Candy Mountain, the Depression-era symbol of abundance personified by Ms. Parton's voluptuous figure, rhinestone-studded stage costumes and blonde bouffant wigs. Her songs spoke to millions, confronting privation and loss even as they radiated possibility and hope.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

And in that silence, they say, things get worse: the topic becomes less approachable, inevitable periods of grief can become more chaotic and disruptive, and the actual pain of losing your person or cat or dog can become harder to process. s.e. went out and talked to dozens of death-related people - death doulas, psychologists, funeral directors - to see what we could do about this topic to find some peace to rest in long before we actually have to rest in peace.

    Welcome to the seventh episode of the Coach's Corner Series! Today I'm joined by Coach Lindsay, and we're getting real about what's actually not working in the functional health space, even when practitioners mean well.  We break down five major red flags to watch for, starting with practitioners who don't address nutrition beyond a generic food list. We talk about why using supplements as a bandaid, without digging into the root cause, just becomes another quick fix that doesn't actually heal anything.  Coach Lindsay shares her own health journey, including how infrequent check ins with her provider left her feeling stuck and unsure of her progress.  We also get into why rigid diet plans can backfire by teaching your body to adapt rather than building real metabolic flexibility. And we can't talk about functional health without talking about training, so we cover why using the right training stimulus matters just as much as nutrition and supplements when it comes to hitting your goals.  If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still not seeing results, this episode will help you understand why, and what a more complete approach to healing actually looks like. Lindsay brings so much heart and expertise to this conversation, and I know it's going to help so many of you see your own health journey differently.   Time Stamps:   (1:54) What's Not Working Within Functional Health (4:12) More Advanced Nutrition Concepts (8:09) Gut Health (9:02) Questions To Ask Your Practitioner (10:19) Supplements Are Band Aid Fix (15:37) Frequency of Communication (20:20) Flexibility With The Strategy (27:47) Training As A Stimulus ------- Learn more about the Vital Spark Coaching Functional Reset Method.  ------- Click Here to apply for 1-on-1 coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts. ------- Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation.  ------- Click Here for my Free Top 3 Labs training to get to the root of bloating & exhaustion. ------- Click Here to download a Free Hormone Healing Blueprint. ------- Check out our YouTube Channel for more free training. ------- Click Here to read our Client Google Reviews.  ------- Enjoyed the podcast?

    The murder trial of Lindsay Clancy is underway in Plymouth Superior Court, and the diagnoses on the table just multiplied. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is charged with killing her three children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 7 months — allegedly strangling them with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She then allegedly tried to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window, an injury that left her paralyzed from the waist down. She's pleaded not guilty to three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. Her defense, led by Kevin Reddington, rests on an insanity claim built around severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.The prosecution's rebuttal witness had a different diagnosis in mind entirely. Dr. Avram Mack, a psychiatrist who reviewed Clancy's medical records and evaluated her in April 2026, told jurors that assessing someone's mental state requires looking at who they were at the time of the act itself. He described a patient who showed no interest in her hygiene, the hospital's food, or the other patients around her — though she did have visitors on occasion. Mack noted she's taking numerous psychiatric medications, all at low doses.His diagnosis: a major depressive episode within major depressive disorder. Not bipolar disorder — he testified he saw nothing in her records pointing to mania or hypomania. And notably, not postpartum psychosis either, which is the diagnosis the defense has built its entire case around.Patrick Clancy, her husband, was running errands when the killings happened and has since moved to Manhattan. The trial is expected to continue for several more weeks.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Phil and Emily are joined by Emmy-winning Hacks creator Lucia Aniello for Lars von Trier's Dogville (2003). Nicole Kidman's fugitive Grace hides out in a Depression-era Rocky Mountain town staged entirely with chalk outlines on a bare soundstage, and the townsfolk's charity slowly curdles into something monstrous. Paul Bettany, Lauren Bacall, Chloë Sevigny, Patricia Clarkson, and James Caan fill out von Trier's three-hour moral experiment, narrated with dry glee by John Hurt.The three dig into the chalk-outline staging as both radical theater and pure provocation, Kidman spending her post-Hours Oscar heat on the least commercial project imaginable, and where the film's brutal final turn lands two decades on. There's a real case here for reading Dogville as the most savage thing ever built to look like a filmed stage play. Cruel, funny, and unlike anything else same as the movie.Follow the show & guest:Podcast Like It's... - https://www.instagram.com/podcastlikeitsPhil Iscove - https://www.instagram.com/pmiscoveEmily St. James - https://www.instagram.com/emilystjamsLucia Aniello - https://www.instagram.com/luciaaniellosetfits

    This week, I'm joined by Kaden, back on the podcast with a candid look at what happens when our faith hits a standstill. Have you ever felt stuck—like you're going through the motions but not moving forward spiritually? We get real about what stagnant faith looks like, the hard places it can take us, and more importantly, how to find a fresh direction no matter where you're starting from.Together, we talk through Kaden's journey through college, dealing with depression, and what it means to hit “reset” on faith—exploring the honest struggles and the value in facing our own weaknesses. We reflect on how setbacks, even painful ones, can be the experiences that shape us the most, drawing on stories from everyday life and powerful visuals that stuck with us from seminary. Is there really such a thing as falling behind on your spiritual path, or are we exactly where God needs us to be?If you've ever wondered how to shift your mindset, set a game plan for personal growth, or turn your hardest moments into stepping stones toward deeper discipleship, this episode is for you. Let's dig into how intentional change and gratitude for the hard things can realign us—helping us face toward the Savior, one step at a time.Please share this episode with someone who needs to hear it.

    Do you struggle to get good sleep? The reason you're exhausted, waking up at 3 a.m., or struggling to feel like yourself might surprise you. And likely has to do with sneaky and quietly disruptive sleep habits. In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with world renowned sleep expert Dr. Michael Breus, PhD, a double board-certified Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Sleep Specialist known as The Sleep Doctor. After nearly 25 years in the field, he has a refreshingly simple message: we may be making wellness — and sleep — far more complicated than it needs to be. There is a ton of information jam packed in this episode. We explore the fascinating science of our individual sleep chronotypes (I'm a Lion, what are you?!) and how understanding your body's natural rhythm could change the way you approach not only sleep, but your entire day. Dr. Breus shares some surprisingly simple sleep tips that challenge many of the things we've been taught about getting a good night's rest. We tackle some of the biggest questions around sleep — from those frustrating middle-of-the-night wake-ups, to menopause, sleep apnea, melatonin, sleep trackers, caffeine, alcohol, and the everyday habits that may be affecting us more than we realize. And we go beyond sleep itself, exploring the fascinating world of dreams, the connection between sleep and emotional healing, and why the timing of everything from your morning routine to intimacy may matter more than you think. This conversation made me look at sleep in an entirely new way. Rather than chasing the perfect nighttime routine, what if better sleep actually begins with what you do the moment you wake up? If you're ready to understand your sleep differently and discover simple ways to feel more rested and energized, this episode is for you.

    Harold Doby III grew up in Georgia with a mother who worked as a correctional officer and a father who was secretly a drug dealer — and when his father was sentenced to 19 years in prison Harold was seven years old and sports became the thing that kept everything together. He had his first child at 16, went on to play Division 1 and Division 2 college basketball, played overseas until an injury ended his career, and then fired a single shot from his licensed firearm in self defense during a bar altercation he says he was not a part of — and watched that decision produce a nearly $200,000 restitution order, 20 years of probation, and eventually a 45 year prison sentence when job loss and injuries made the restitution impossible to pay in the time the court required. _____________________________________________ #justice #selfdefense #truecrimecommunity #prisonsentence _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/ksjh06pb #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

    This week, Alexi is joined by music critic and columnist Ella Dorn to unpack her viral essay declaring Giallobrutalism as the defining visual language of mid-2020s pop, informed by the stylish delirium of Italian giallo cinema and a pervasive unease about surveillance and stardom. We discuss the aesthetic's formal signatures—cool temperatures, split diopters, painterly tableaux, and more— as well as the rise of early-onset popstar histrionics, the existential glamour of centripetal girls in centrifugal settings, and the decade's watershed fashion moments so far, from Miu Miu micro-minis to Sandy Liang mega-bows. We also challenge the default Y2K reading of modern pop aesthetics, arguing for a closer look at their 20th-century antecedents, and reflect on our shared past as stans of doomed K-pop girl groups.

    Send us a voice noteIn this Earthkeepers Essentials archive episode, Wes Willison shares his journey from political awareness to ecological engagement, exploring how faith, community, and practical actions like gun decommissioning serve as acts of hope and transformation. In particular, he and Forrest explore ways in which we can resist despair and practice grace for ourselves in a world fraught with really difficult and sometimes overwhelming problems. In that framework, they discuss the importance of sacramental practices in environmental and social justice work, and how surprise and resilience shape our response to a challenging future. Information: Wes WillisonShane ClaiborneThe Simple Way communityKey  Topicso   Wes Willison's background and journey into earth careo   The role of seminary and the Farminary project in ecological understandingo   The significance of sacramental practices in environmental worko   The process of decommissioning guns as a symbol of hope and transformationo   The impact of political shifts and generational perspectives on climate anxietyo   Coping mechanisms for depression and anxiety related to climate changeo   The potential for surprise and new hope in political and ecological contextso   The importance of community, faith, and practical action in shaping a sustainable future Keywordsecology, faith, social justice, gun decommissioning, community, hope, sacrament, environmental activism, mental health, generational change, depression, self-care, Princeton Farminary, compost theology, Norm Wirzba Some TakeawaysSacramental practices can serve as powerful acts of hope and transformation in social and ecological justice.Engaging with the earth through work like composting and farming reveals God's presence in creation.Decommissioning guns and repurposing their parts into art and tools symbolizes hope and healing.Surprise is a key indicator of the Spirit's activity and a source of hope in dark times.Coping with climate anxiety involves intentional practices of rest, community, and engagement. Find us on our website: Earthkeepers Support the Earthkeepers podcast Check out the Ecological Disciple

    Welcome to Teachback Tuesday, where we replay the most popular episodes from previous seasons. Have you ever gotten into an argument with a stranger? It's an enormous drain on the emotions, and often ends poorly. Most of all, it's sure not a great advertisement for Christianity. We need to be careful in this generation, because we're always on duty as ambassadors for Christ. If you go toe-to-toe with someone, trying to have the last word while matching wits, you could come out the loser while losing an opportunity to represent Christ. God didn't call us to debate, He called us to copy Him. He came to seek and to save that which was lost, not to argue and push them deeper into darkness. There are reasons why unbelievers don't understand believers, and we make the division worse when we get into arguments just to score points. Let's consider just a few reasons why there is this communication gap, considering our own roles and making sure that we're not becoming repellant and annoyingly self-assertive.

    Send us Fan MailPeaches and Trent sit down with returning guest Marc Esposito and Henry Penix from Soaak for a deep dive into sound frequency compositions, sleep, nervous system regulation, and the future of human performance.Marc explains how retirement led him into the human performance space, working with universities, the military, academia, and industry to help optimize the human weapon system. He also explains why he was initially skeptical of Soaak, why the science started making sense, and why he was willing to put his reputation behind it.Henry breaks down how Soaak uses clinically tested sound frequency compositions instead of generic YouTube frequency tracks. The goal is not magic, not crystals, not woo-woo nonsense — it is using targeted frequencies to help with sleep, anxiety, depression, nervous system reset, low energy, recovery, and performance.The team gets into why sleep is the foundation of human performance, how wearable data from devices like Whoop, Garmin, Oura, Fitbit, Apple Watch, and Samsung Watch can help guide frequency recommendations, and how Soaak is building AI-driven personalized frequency compositions based on what your body is showing in the moment.Marc also talks through his own testing, including using Soaak after brutal threshold work in Texas heat and dropping his heart rate from nearly 190 beats per minute to 80 in about 15 minutes. The conversation also covers stress load, allostatic load, sympathetic and parasympathetic states, PTSD-like symptoms, recovery, family life, and why operators have to learn how to come down after living in fight-or-flight mode for years.This episode is not saying sound frequencies replace hard work. They do not. But if something can help you sleep better, reset faster, recover harder, and show up more functional for your team and your family, that is worth paying attention to.Use code ONESREADY at Soaak.com.Links:- Soaak.com / Promo code: ONESREADY- OnesReady.com- OperatorTrainingSummit.com- ATACLETE / Promo code: ONESREADY- Modern Athlete Strength Systems / Promo code: ONESREADYChapters:00:00 - Intro and Ones Ready01:05 - Soaak Episode Preview02:45 - Marc Esposito and Henry Penix Join03:07 - Marc's Retirement and Human Performance Work05:13 - Why Marc Took Soaak Seriously06:34 - Sound Frequencies Are Not New07:36 - Operators, Sleep, and Coming Down From Fight-or-Flight08:05 - Why White Noise and Apps Matter09:15 - Wearables, Data, and What to Do With It10:17 - Henry's Background and Why Soaak Exists12:46 - From Clinic Modality to Sound Frequency Compositions13:33 - Sympathetic Resonance Explained15:03 - Sleep as Soaak's Most Used Frequency16:02 - Targeting Sleep, Anxiety, Depression, and Reset16:50 - How Frequencies Are Built and Tested20:35 - Why Frequency Effects Make Sense22:06 - Marc's Central Nervous System Reset Testing23:18 - Heart Rate Recovery After Brutal Work24:26 - Performance, Recovery, and Free Chicken25:26 - Hypervigilance, Family Life, and Coming Home Normal27:07 - From 188 Beats Per Minute to 8029:21 - General Minihan and Sleep Efficiency32:33 - Sleep as the Foundation of Performance33:23 - Dual Audio and Listening in the Background35:27 - Getting Frequency Effects Without Extra Equipment37:43 - Military Compliance and Group Use38:23 - Sleep Without More Pills39:43 - Wearable Integration and AI Personalization43:05 - Brain Maps, PTSD, and Long-Term Support43:58 - Neurofeedback-Type Effects46:06 - One Percent Better Adds Up46:49 - Studies, Sleep Records, and Frequency Library49:12 - Stress-Related Doctor Visits49:49 - Epic Fury, Stress, and Mental Health Evacuations51:41 - Readiness, Lethality, and Allostatic Load54:07 - Teaching Young Warfighters to Regulate55:11 - The Rubber Band Stress Analogy57:25 - Frequencies Underwater59:45 - Tinnitus, Earbuds, and Meeting People Where They Are01:01:11 - Soaak Code for Ones Ready Listeners01:02:04 - Use Code ONESREADY01:02:54 - Tinnitus and Frequency Use01:03:38 - Final Links and Wrap-UpSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page:  HERERegister for our Operator Training Summit:  OperatorTrainingSummit.comFind an Air Force Recruiter: AirForce.comCollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code:  ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code):  ATACLeteDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code:  ONESREADYDFND Apparel...
