Breast cancer is one of the most talked-about health issues in the world, but there's still so much we don't discuss. While mammograms and early detection campaigns have saved countless lives, the conversation often stops there.  What's missing is a deeper look at the lifestyle, genetic, and environmental factors that play a pivotal role in prevention, and the small, daily changes that can make a massive impact. Because here's the truth: 80% of breast cancer cases are not inherited. They're environmental. That means we have far more power than we think. But to tap into it, we need better guidance, smarter screening strategies, and a stronger understanding of how our bodies work. What kind of screenings should women get? How do factors like breast tissue increase the risk of breast cancer? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Pamela Smith, an internationally recognized functional medicine physician, author of 14 bestselling books, and co-director of the Personalized Medicine Certification at the University of South Florida.  She shares science-backed strategies to reduce your risk, strengthen your immune system, and support your body before and after a diagnosis. Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The 3 things that feed cancer Sugar, stress, and toxins are the trifecta that fuel cancer cell growth. But how do you realistically cut them out and what's secretly making them worse? Why 80% of breast cancer isn't genetic Family history matters but not as much as your environment. Which everyday exposures and habits have the biggest impact on your risk? The truth about hormones and alcohol Is hormone therapy safe? And what happens when you mix it with alcohol?  What most women don't know about screening Dense breast tissue, faulty methylation, even your gut health can affect your screening results. How do you make sure you're getting the full picture of your health?   Guest Bio Pamela Wartian Smith, M.D., MPH, MS is an internationally known speaker and author on the subject of Anti-Aging and Precision Medicine.

I sat down with Dr Sealey the Founding Dean of the Proposed Maryland College of Osteopathic Medicine at Morgan State. In this interview we spoke about his background, where he grew up and what made him get into the medical profession and become a Doctor. He walks us through his life and how ended up at Morgan State University. We discuss what he has in store for the the proposed Medical School. Dr. John Sealey is a renowned innovator in clinical medical education and served as the leading fundraiser and founding DIO of Detroit's Authority Health graduate medical education residency program, a $25 million in-community resident training initiative that was the largest teaching health center program in the country. He continues to support the program as DIO/DME Emeritus and as a consulting Medical Director. Dr. Sealey has long been a passionate advocate of increasing diversity in medical education and has enjoyed developing pipeline programs targeting the underserved and underrepresented. He is a graduate of an HCBU, North Carolina Central University (1971) and received his medical education at Michigan State College of Osteopathic Medicine (1976).

A longstanding advocate for the osteopathic profession and a dedicated clinical instructor, Dr. Sealey has spent over thirty years in medical education and fifteen years in leadership. Since 2008, he has served as the Director of Student Medical Education for Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine (Regional Dean for the Detroit Region).

In this episode of BackTable Urology, Dr. Esther Han (USMD Hospital) and Dr. Richard Santucci (Crane Center) discuss genital gender affirming surgery techniques and postoperative management. --- SHOW NOTES First, Dr. Santucci discusses his career pivot from academic trauma reconstruction to private practice gender affirming reconstruction. After 17 years at Detroit Medical Center as director of trauma reconstruction fellowship, he left his position to learn gender-affirming surgery at the Crane Center in Austin, Texas. He was drawn to gender affirming surgery because of the dynamic techniques and novel research in the field. Next, the doctors review of vocabulary for transgender patients. Dr. Crane notes that vocabulary is always changing and advises doctors to not assume a patient's gender or surgical preferences based on appearance. Additionally, Dr. Han explains why using the word “normal” over medically correct terms can confuse and cause discomfort in patients. Next, Dr. Santucci summarizes the gender affirming surgeries he performs. He explains trans women surgeries, such as full vaginoplasty and vulvoplasty. In trans men, he performs metoidioplasty and phalloplasty. However, Dr. Santucci emphasizes that patients are given the freedom to customize their own surgeries by picking which anatomical parts they would like to keep, change, or remove. Complications, such as urethral strictures and infections may occur in all these surgeries. Additionally, he emphasizes the need for addressing fertility with trans men, as some of them would like to keep their ovaries for egg harvesting. Then, the doctors discuss the recent change in World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH guidelines), which now only require one letter from a therapist instead of two in order to receive genital surgery; however, insurance companies may require more letters. The doctors also contemplate the presence of post-operative regret, since gender affirming surgery is difficult to reverse. Dr. Santucci explains that regret is often tied to postoperative complications. Then, he delves deeper into the management of phalloplasty complications, such as postoperative incontinence, postoperative infections, and erosions. He also emphasizes the importance of prostate cancer screening for trans women. Although it is rare, the prostate cancer they develop is testosterone independent, making it more difficult to treat and more aggressive. Finally, Dr. Santucci shares what a typical week in his life looks like and reflects on how multidisciplinary collaboration in the OR has made his operations more efficient and effective.

After obtaining her Doctorate in Pharmacy degree from Ferris State University, Donna Mazzola continued training by completing a residency program at the Detroit Medical Center. She spent about 10 years in clinical practice doing medication therapy management.  In speaking to patients with a chronic illness she was blown away by how little they knew about managing their disease through lifestyle.  This led her to pursue a master's in nutrition. In 2015, it all came full circle when she was diagnosed with Hashimotos. Her diagnosis took her right back to her passion for understanding how she was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. Donna realized she didn't know who to trust and what was the right way to manage her disease, so, she decided to become THE source! She embarked on a journey to further her education and obtain a Master's in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from The University of Western States. Through her journey in school, she started @DrAutoimmuneGirl to share trusted information to those suffering like her.

As self-proclaimed “quality nerds,” Rocky Pinheiro and Mike Payionk of fastening solutions manufacturer PennEngineering speak about quality with exactly what nerd implies — passion, expertise, and arcane knowledge.  Rocky, who holds a Ph.D. in management, spent 25 years in manufacturing before arriving at PennEngineering. Most of his career was in the automotive industry, including 13 years at various iterations of Fiat Chrysler.  A Michigan native, Mike grew up surrounded by automotive manufacturing. Like Rocky, he spent most of the past two decades working in the industry with a focus on quality control. Rocky and Mike love to geek out on data, which they use to help manufacturing plants operate at a higher level. In this episode, they discuss the key role automation plays in making it all possible, as well as their unique style of facilitating interdepartmental communication. Themes discussed in this episode:  How to sell the idea of automation to client organizations that may be initially reluctant to adopt it  Rocky and Mike's “U.N. diplomat” approach to communication and how they use it to break down silos How automating their quality management system helped create a plant-level system for employees to step right into after COVID Rocky and Mike's “industry 4.0 journey” toward goals of improving technology and data gathering Why automotive supply chain leaders need to acknowledge their blind spots to help improve quality issues  Featured Guests: Name: Rocky Pinheiro Title: Global Vice President of Quality, https://www.pemnet.com/ (PennEngineering) What he does: Rocky ensures that organizational communication is ongoing and transparent between silos at PennEngineering, which is a decentralized organization.

He spent 13 years at Fiat Chrysler.  [3:20] Early exposure:  Rocky's colleague Mike Payionk also represents a wealth of experience in automotive manufacturing, with the better part of two decades spent in quality control.  [4:53] Same process, different applications: Automation is crucial to PennEngineering's work. It provides critical lead time to supply automotive clients, who have very specific deadlines, processes, and systems for manufacturing their products. Consumer electronics clients rely on automation to shorten the time it takes to develop the initial versions of their products from ideation to build.  [5:53] The buy-in: Automation must be implemented in order to work. Rocky says end users must be involved and invested in the automation process from the very beginning.  [7:16] Key automation category: Automating the CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Action) system made the most dramatic difference for Rocky and Mike's team, in terms of automating nonconformances data. “It felt like overnight we went from not understanding what was happening on the plant floor to completely understanding what was happening on the plant floor,” Mike says.  [10:26] Clear communication, hard data: Automation enabled one of

Audra talks about a tragic accident that left her scarred for life.********Audra Bryant is a life coach, motivational speaker, singer, and author who shares her transformational journey of healing to help others turn their scars into their superpower. After an accident caused her to receive burns on her chest, neck, and shoulder at the tender age of 18-months, Bryant spent nearly 25 years trying to rid herself of the scars with surgeries, compression vests, acid treatments, and injections. She then began to cover them with t-shirts and turtlenecks and refused to look at her scars in the mirror until she was 25 years old, only to find herself missing out on her purpose and meaningful relationships. Because of her experience, the Detroit native wrote her song “Scars” to encourage others going through similar situations and shares her journey in the book “I've Got Scars Baby! How to Embrace Your Scars and Power Your Purpose.” In it, Bryant reveals that through prayer, affirmations, therapy, and other methods, she eventually found her purpose by embracing her scars. Additionally, as a certified life coach, she's empowered countless others through workshops, personal coaching, speaking engagements, online courses, and her podcast “I've Got Scars Baby!”, which explores “scars” of all sorts from physical to mental and emotional.Bryant's infectious smile, impeccable talent, and powerful testimony led to her being a motivational speaker and performer for The Detroit Medical Center, Children's Hospital of Michigan, Los Angeles Unified School District, Accelerated Radio, LA Talk Radio, and the Phoenix Society for Burn Survivors.Through the victories and the times of challenge, Bryant's learned that we all have a purpose that is inextricably linked to one another so it is her desire to encourage others in their journey and make them smile along the way!YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQuLKzFMu9wWebsite: https://www.audrabryant.com/******If you would like to contact the show about being a guest please email us at Dauna@betertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Twitter: https://twitter.com/DaunaD1Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomVideo of the interview is available here: https://youtu.be/6tl7O_hZOvgHave a question or want to be a guest on the podcast email: dauna@bettertopodcast.comTo see upcoming guests click here: https://www.dmneedom.com/better-topodcastSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSound Design and production by Rich Zei at Third Ear Audio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thirdearaudioproductionsBuzzsprout: Affiliate link https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=1832259©2022 Better To...Podcast with D.

Every single one of us struggle with something...BUT, what if you took your own personal struggle—maybe an autoimmune disease—and turn that into your message that leads you to become one of the most influential voices for others managing that same condition? That's exactly what this week's guest on The Fit Pharmacist Healthcare Podcast did, and we are going to go behind the brand of her passion, DrAutoimmunegirl. After graduating from Ferris State University with her Doctorate in Pharmacy, Donna Mazzola went on to complete a residency program at the Detroit Medical Center. She spent about 10 years in clinical practice, getting a board certification in geriatrics and providing medication therapy management consults. Through speaking to patients with a chronic illness, she was blown away by how little they knew about managing their disease through lifestyle. Then in 2015, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto's. Her diagnosis took me right back to her passion to understand the why and the how, and in trying to understand her condition didn't know who to trust and what was the right way to manage her disease, and so, she decided to become THE source! She embarked on a journey to further her education and obtain a Master's in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from The University of Western States. Through her journey in school, she started DrAutoimmunegirl to share trusted information to those suffering, like herself, with chronic illness. Through scripting her brand, she realized her gift and ability to take complex information and simplify it into easily digestible pearls, which then became her purpose; to share reputable scientific information in a simplified format. DrAutoimmunegirl is a blog with a mission to identify the root cause of disease through health and wellness and create a balance between nutrition and medicine. Listen in to this episode as she shares the story and lessons of building a brand of influence in pharmacy!
