What is narcissistic abuse, and how can you recognize it in a relationship, family, friendship, or workplace? In this video, Lee Hammock explains common patterns associated with narcissistic abuse, including love bombing, gaslighting, manipulation, blame shifting, control, isolation, devaluation, and emotional abuse. You will also learn why this pattern can leave people confused, anxious, disconnected from themselves, and questioning their own reality. Narcissistic abuse is not a formal clinical diagnosis, and not every harmful person has narcissistic personality disorder, but repeated abusive behavior still deserves to be taken seriously. If you recognize these patterns and feel unsafe, prioritize support, boundaries, and local safety resources.Book a Coaching Session: [⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠]

When two ADHD experts get together to talk about neurodivergence, we can skip the basics and go so much deeper. In this episode, I'm joined by Kate Moryoussef — ADHD coach, EFT practitioner, author of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, and host of the ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast — to explore what it really takes to navigate life as a late-identified neurodivergent woman. We dive into the complex reality of managing your capacity, navigating perimenopause alongside ADHD, unlearning lifelong perfectionism, and why true well-being goes far beyond quick social media hacks. Kate shares openly about her own lived experience, the reality of post-event energy crashes, and how she builds a supportive ecosystem to burn bright without burning out. In this episode, we cover: The deep need for in-person connection and finding "your people" as a late-diagnosed woman The intersection of ADHD, perimenopause, and lifelong hormonal struggles Protecting your energy, honoring bodily cues, and navigating post-adrenaline crashes Why self-identification is valid and how to support yourself while on long assessment waitlists Moving beyond the binary of ADHD as either a "superpower" or a curse Setting boundaries around sleep, screen time, and constant dopamine consumption The hidden perfectionism behind workaholism, people-pleasing, and the internal "not enough" narrative Why coaching, therapy, and nervous system regulation work together as a holistic toolkit The future of neurodivergence assessments and moving toward more fluid, holistic diagnostic pathways Key reminder  You don't need to tick every box, fix everything, or prove your worth by pushing past your limits. Whatever you have done today is enough, and you are worthy of rest. About Kate Moryoussef  Kate is a Women's ADHD Lifestyle and Wellbeing Coach, EFT practitioner, author, and podcast host.

This episode is sponsored by Gilead Sciences. Gilead had no involvement or input in the podcast content. Gilead is working to transform how cancer is treated. We are innovating with next-generation therapies, combinations, and technologies to deliver improved outcomes for people with cancer. From antibody drug conjugates and small molecules to cell therapy-based approaches, our portfolio and pipeline assets are creating new possibilities for people with cancer.Recorded on location at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, December 2025.Metastatic triple-negative breast cancer remains the breast cancer subtype with the fewest targetable biomarkers and the shortest treatment algorithm. When a trial reports a double-digit progression-free survival in the first-line setting, it is worth understanding what that actually changes and how the trial was designed with patient outcomes at the center.This episode was recorded in December 2025, before regulatory action. On June 24, 2026, the FDA approved sacituzumab govitecan-hziy for two first-line indications in triple-negative breast cancer: as a single agent for adults with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic TNBC who are not candidates for PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor-based therapy supported by ASCENT-0, and in combination with pembrolizumab for adults whose tumors express PD-L1 with a CPS of 10 or greater supported by ASCENT-04. Janice's speculation in this episode about how PD-L1 status might factor into the guidelines has since been answered by the label.ASCENT-04/KEYNOTE-D19 NCT05382286 was a phase 3, open-label, randomized trial of 443 patients with previously untreated locally advanced unresectable or metastatic TNBC whose tumors expressed PD-L1 at a CPS of 10 or greater by the 22C3 assay. Participants were randomized 1:1 to sacituzumab govitecan plus pembrolizumab or to physician's choice of chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab. Patients in the control arm with centrally confirmed progression were offered crossover to sacituzumab govitecan.0:00 Live from the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium0:30 The METAvivor ribbon and what the pink ribbon leaves out1:35 Diagnosed in 2016 with a median overall survival of 9 to 15 months2:26 Nine years later3:20 From pediatric nursing to research advocacy4:30 What has changed since 2017, and what has not5:26 2011: when chemotherapy was the only option5:55 On not knowing a relevant clinical trial existed6:47 Why metastatic TNBC still has no maintenance therapy7:25 What first-line treatment looks like today8:25 Inside ASCENT-049:09 Progression-free survival, defined9:59 Why a double-digit PFS is notable in this subtype11:20 Why each subsequent line of treatment works for less time11:52 How many patients never reach second line12:50 The case for a stronger first-line option13:21 Crossover design, and why it matters to patients14:33 What crossover means in a randomized trial15:56 Patient advocates in clinical trial design18:59 Quality of life versus quantity of life21:48 Rapid fire: metastatic breast cancer and metastatic TNBC23:06 Rapid fire: first line, second line, progression-free survival24:00 Rapid fire: immunotherapy and antibody-drug conjugates24:59 Advice for the newly diagnosed26:04 What she wants next: a biomarker26:52 On ADCs, tolerability, and the need for novel targetsJanice Cowden, RN is a research patient advocate living with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. She practiced as a registered nurse for approximately 22 years, primarily in pediatrics, and later worked as a pharmaceutical sales representative.

What happens when cancer forces you to stop carrying everything—and finally start listening to yourself?In this episode of The Many Faces of Cancer, Melissa talks with breast cancer survivor, mindfulness practitioner, certified yoga teacher, and New Lotus Collective founder Kathryn Pol about a cancer journey that changed far more than her physical health.Diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019, Kathryn remembers feeling as though she had spent years carrying the weight of everything—career, family, finances, relationships, and the belief that if she didn't hold it all together, everything might fall apart. Cancer became the moment that was finally “big enough to make her move.”Kathryn shares the fear surrounding her diagnosis, chemotherapy and hair loss, including the touching story of her husband shaving her head during treatment—and eventually learning to cut her hair as it grew back, something he still does seven years later.But much of this conversation is about what happened on the inside.Kathryn explains how yoga, mindfulness, breathwork, meditation, affirmations, and learning to quiet the noise around her helped change her relationship with stress, control, and healing. She offers a beautiful reframe for anyone who thinks yoga isn't for them: instead of seeing it as a “workout,” consider it a “work in.”As Kathryn puts it, when she began turning down the volume of life, the volume of herself got turned up.Melissa and Kathryn also talk about the unique connection within the cancer community, the often-overlooked experience of caregivers, and Kathryn's work with Susan G. Komen Colorado and New Lotus Collective.And when Melissa asks what she would tell the woman who heard “you have cancer” seven years ago, Kathryn's answer brings the entire conversation full circle:You don't have to figure everything out. You don't have to know the ending. You don't have to carry the ending.You just have to take the next step.In this episode:Kathryn's 2019 breast cancer diagnosis and treatmentThe fear and identity surrounding hair lossThe often-unseen emotional burden carried by caregiversWhy Kathryn once felt responsible for carrying everythingHow yoga became part of her cancer recoveryWhy yoga can be a “work in” instead of a workoutMeditation without trying to “clear your mind”Learning to distinguish thoughts from truthLetting go of control—and why it's a lifelong practiceThe healing power of sharing your storyFinding belonging within the cancer communityKathryn's involvement with Susan G.

In this episode, I talk with Amanda Trisdale and her daughter Leta Trisdale about how dance transformed Leta's life, and led to the creation of something extraordinary.Diagnosed with autism at age three and considered nonvocal, Leta found her voice through dance when traditional therapies fell short. Despite her talent, traditional dance spaces weren't built for neurodivergent dancers, leading to misunderstanding and exclusion.Together, Amanda and Leta founded Autistic Wings Dance Company, a nonprofit reimagining dance education for autistic dancers through individualized, inclusive instruction.This conversation explores autism, advocacy, creativity, and what becomes possible when we build spaces where neurodivergent people truly belong.Connect with Amanda & Leta: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/letas-tap-styles-and-my-autistic-life/id1751184053https://www.autisticwingsdancecompany.org/https://www.youtube.com/@letatapstylesStill waiting for services?

Episode Description:Jon Morrow's story begins with a diagnosis that was supposed to be a death sentence.Born with spinal muscular atrophy, Jon was diagnosed at six months old. Doctors told his mother he would likely die by age two. Instead, she fought for him. She fought to keep him alive. She fought to get him into public school. She fought through pneumonia, broken ribs, hospital visits, and a world that did not expect much from him.That expectation became one of the central forces in Jon's life.In this From the Archive conversation, James talks with Jon about what it means to live in a world where people expect you to survive, but not necessarily to achieve. Jon explains how his mother gave him a radically different definition of disability: everyone has something they cannot do as well as someone else, but everyone also has something they can do better than most.For Jon, that thing was his mind.He learned to write, program, think, sell, and communicate. He used assistive technology, including a sip-and-puff wheelchair and a lip-operated mouse, to work on a computer. He graduated from college, received job offers, and then ran into a brutal financial trap: if he earned too much money, he risked losing the Medicaid benefits that paid for his care.So Jon changed the rules.He wrote for free. He built relationships. He worked for Copyblogger without immediate pay, knowing that one day he would ask for help. He wrote viral posts. He moved to Mexico to reduce his healthcare costs. He asked for the favors he had earned. And within months, he built a consulting business that turned into Smart Blogger.James and Jon also talk about his father's real estate business, raising $50 million for land deals, the crash that wiped everything out, and the pressure Jon felt when both of his parents needed support. The conversation then moves into blogging, guest posting, courses, coaching, and the economics of turning expertise into an online business.But the deeper subject is not blogging. It is agency.Jon argues that any limitation can be overcome, though not always easily and not always without cost. His framework begins with belief: surround yourself with stories of people doing extraordinary things until extraordinary starts to feel normal. Then find the price of what you want. Understand the sacrifice before you begin. And finally, create enough urgency that you cannot drift forever.For Jon, the “gun to his head” was the fear of ending up in a nursing home. That fear gave him the energy to work 16, 18, even 20 hours a day after moving to Mexico.The episode is about disability, but it is not only about disability. It is about building a life when the default path will not work. It is about finding the counterpunch. It is about choosing contribution over helplessness. And it is about becoming unstoppable by refusing to let the world's expectations become your own.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode. References to Jon's business, Unstoppable, Smart Blogger, Medicaid, healthcare costs, assistive technology, brain-machine interfaces, and online publishing reflect the original recording period.This episode discusses disability, depression, severe illness, traumatic injury, healthcare access, financial stress, fear-based motivation, and nursing-home fears. It should be framed as Jon's personal story and philosophy, not as medical, legal, mental-health, or financial advice.What You'll Learn:What spinal muscular atrophy is and how it affected Jon's life from infancy.Why Jon's mother refused to accept the expectations doctors and schools placed on him.How Jon learned to define disability as something everyone experiences in different ways.Why expectations can become one of the hardest parts of living with a disability.How assistive technology helped Jon work, write, and build a business.Why online communities can matter when patients live longer than doctors expected.How Jon used his wheelchair as an unexpected advantage in sales and fundraising.What Jon learned while raising money for his father's real estate projects.How the 2010 real estate crash forced Jon to reinvent his career.Why Medicaid's income limits trapped Jon financially.How writing for free helped Jon build skill, reputation, leverage, and relationships.Why Jon moved to Mexico and how that changed the economics of his care.How a Copyblogger favor turned into his first wave of consulting clients.How Jon built Smart Blogger through consulting, courses, coaching, and audience growth.Why Jon eventually reorganized the business so he could return to writing.What Jon means by “reconstructing reality.”Why he recommends filling your mind with stories of people who have done impossible things.How to think about the price of any major goal.Why sacrifice is unavoidable, but negotiable.How negative reinforcement can create urgency.Why fear, when handled deliberately, can become fuel.Timestamped Chapters:[02:00] The Tribe You Don't Want to Belong ToJon talks about a private Facebook group for adults with his disease and what it feels like to be one of

The NFL's billion-dollar concussion settlement was designed to compensate former players suffering from the devastating neurological consequences of a career in professional football — but a bombshell report reveals that five law firms systematically exploited that system through an organized scheme of fraudulent diagnoses. Special masters appointed by a federal court found that attorneys steered clients to unapproved doctors willing to hand out Parkinson's disease diagnoses regardless of symptoms, funneling over $95 million in fraudulent claims through the fund before an audit shut it down. Today we unpack what this scandal reveals about the psychology of institutional betrayal, the vulnerability of injured athletes, and what happens when the people trusted to protect you become the threat.

What if the fatigue, joint pain, digestive issues, skin changes, or inflammation you've learned to live with are actually clues your body has been giving you for years?In this episode of the Wise Divine Women Podcast, Dana Irvine welcomes VJ Hamilton, The Autoimmunity Nutritionist, to explore autoimmune conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue, gut health, inflammation, and the role nutrition can play in supporting recovery.VJ's passion for autoimmune health began with her own journey. Diagnosed with alopecia areata at just seven years old, she later experienced psoriasis, joint problems, severe fatigue, and eventually chronic fatigue syndrome.

Joe De Sena sits down with Tyler Andrews, a cancer survivor turned elite endurance athlete who just set the fastest known time from Everest Base Camp to the summit: 9 hours and 55 minutes, breaking a 23-year-old record held by Lakpa Gelu by over an hour.   This episode breaks down exactly how Tyler trained for Everest with hypoxic machines simulating 38,000 feet, a 6,000-foot mountain climb five days a week out his back door in Quito, and a strength program built with a Tour de France-level performance lab.   They also dive into why a decade of consistency matters more than early talent, how to structure altitude and endurance training for extreme goals, and what it took to outpace a record that stood for over two decades.   Things You Will Learn: Why the athlete who was not even the best runner on his Division Three team eventually broke a 23-year Everest speed record. The specific training structure Andrews used to prepare for a single-push summit attempt: hypoxic sessions, uphill volume, and strength work. What aplastic anemia survival at age six taught him about patience, gradual progress, and not boxing yourself into one identity. Tools & Frameworks Covered: Progressive Distance Scaling: Start at the distance where you are competitive, then move up one level at a time. 5K to 10K to half marathon to marathon to 50K to FKT to Everest. Each step confirms the next is possible. Hypoxic Layering: Train at moderate altitude daily (10,000 feet), add simulated extreme altitude on a stationary bike (up to 38,000 feet) for 10–12 hours per week, and stack that on top of sport-specific uphill volume. Decade Rule: Do not expect overnight results. A decade of consistent love of the process and daily grinding is what separates mediocre early performance from record-breaking later performance.   If this episode moved you, do not just listen.

He was not an athletic kid: small from the chemo, hyperactive, drawn to music and science. A high school cross-country coach dared him to train consistently, and he fell in love with running after PRing every weekend for a month straight.   He ran NCAA Division III, turned professional, made two Olympic marathon trials, won a silver medal at the 50K World Championships, and eventually transitioned to the fastest-known-time circuit during COVID. He now holds the Everest Base Camp to summit speed record at 9 hours and 55 minutes, breaking a 23-year-old mark by over an hour. He lives and trains in Quito, Ecuador, at 10,000 feet.   Connect to Tyler: Website: https://www.tylercandrews.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tylercandrews/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@TylerCAndrews  Chaski Foundation: https://givebutter.com/chaskifoundation   If we could link to my website (tylercandrews.com and socials @tylercandrews on IG and YT mainly), that would be great.

Caroline Nield was 48 when she discovered she was autistic.Until then, she had spent years wondering why certain parts of life seemed harder for her than they appeared to be for other people. She rehearsed conversations before they happened. Phone calls needed preparation. Friendships could be difficult to maintain. Changes to familiar routines could feel disproportionately unsettling.And, like many women who receive an autism diagnosis later in life, she had become very good at adapting and masking.Caroline's route to diagnosis began when her son was diagnosed as autistic. As she learned more about autism – including sensory differences, social communication and repetitive behaviours – she began recognising herself.When her own diagnosis eventually came, her overwhelming feeling was relief.Rather than giving her another label, Caroline says it helped her begin stripping away some of the labels she had already given herself, like shy, stubborn, difficult.We talk about what autism can look like in women, why so many women reach midlife without recognising that they are neurodivergent, and the difference that self-understanding can make.Caroline also shares some wonderfully relatable examples from everyday life – from supermarket layouts and favourite sandwiches to friendship drift, phone calls and the need for routine.We also explore:• Why autism in girls and women has historically been overlooked• Masking and learning to copy other people socially• The relief – and sometimes grief – that can accompany a late diagnosis• Sensory differences and the need for routine• Friendship and the feeling of never quite fitting in• Executive functioning, overwhelm and the “too many tabs open” brain• Perfectionism and the freeze response• Finding ways of working that suit your own brain• Caroline's decision to pursue acting in her 40s• Leaving a 20-year HR career and retraining as a coach• Why understanding yourself can be the beginning of treating yourself more kindlyWhat struck me most about our conversation was that this isn't really a story about acquiring a label.It's about finally having an explanation, and, perhaps, being able to look back at yourself with a little more self-compassion.FIND CAROLINEInstagram: @caroline_nieldFacebook: Caroline NieldLinkedIn: Caroline NieldCaroline also mentions her free two-minute quiz exploring patterns including cognitive overload, perfectionism, overgiving and the freeze response.

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids Podcast, Dr. Kathy Koch and Wayne Stender explore the growing influence of mental health content on social media and the important difference between learning psychological language and actually receiving care. They discuss how online content can help kids feel less alone while also spreading incomplete information or replacing needed relationships. Parents will be encouraged to stay curious about what their kids are learning online and remember that lasting help is built through trustworthy people who know and stay.

The first 30 days after being diagnosed with breast cancer can feel devastating. You're processing a lot of information, dealing with emotions and often trying to figure out what to do next. Joining us on Real Pink's 400th episode today is Jennifer Omholt, a journalist and 24-year cancer survivor who was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer when her son was just 16 months old. In the wake of her diagnosis, she desperately searched for something to ease her fear and confusion, but found nothing that offered comfort or clarity. Over the next two decades, she set out to create the resource she wished she'd had, so that no one would need to face the shock of a cancer diagnosis alone. Jennifer is here today to share her story and what helped carry her though her breast cancer experience. Key takeaways: You don't have to solve cancer all at once; focus on the next best step. Finding the right medical team can make a profound difference in your care. Self-advocacy means asking questions, trusting your instincts, and seeking second opinions. Letting others help can ease the emotional and practical burden of cancer. The fear of a diagnosis can fade as you gain knowledge, confidence, and a sense of control.

If you've just been diagnosed with cancer—or you're further into your journey and still overwhelmed by what to do next—you don't have to figure out everything at once.In this episode, you'll hear the remarkable story of Heidi Bright, who faced stage IV endometrial sarcoma and was eventually told to prepare for hospice, yet has now gone 14 years with no evidence of cancer. You'll learn how to move through the shock of diagnosis, understand your diagnosis and prognosis without letting statistics dictate your future, decide what actually needs your attention now, support whole-person healing, and build the right healing team. Most importantly, you'll learn how to separate what matters now from what can wait—so you can take your next step without feeling like you have to figure out your entire healing journey today.Join my free email community for practical healing tools, research, survivor stories, and encouragement between episodes: https://TheRenegadeNutritionist.comThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

Jamie sat down with Karrie to discuss leadership, mentorship and coaching, Jamie's Weightless Woman Movement (Karrie here: from a marketing standpoint, I am pretty obsessed with this name and what it is all about.). Weightlessness has nothing to do with your gravitational pull to the earth. Jamie shares how she helps her client's across thresholds she has been through herself. DISCUSSION: Jamie shares what her movement is about and WHYKarrie and Jamie speak candidly, leader to leader, about how ONE thing in their businesses light them both up THE most (Clue: What rhymes with flap)Jamie had many quote-worthy moments you need to hear right now if you're STILL at war with your body for whatever YOUR reasons may be as a woman in leadership. Karrie again: I effing LOVED this conversation with Jamie because of the time passage and how Jamie and I have both evolved.

In this Unspoken Words Short, Dr. Elisa Shipon-Blum (Dr. E) sits down with Christie, whose son was diagnosed with selective mutism in 2022 at three and a half years old.Together, they look back on his journey. Christie's son is now a thriving eight-year-old who talks to anyone, rather than the small handful of people he once could. Selective mutism isn't fully behind them, Christie says, but it's something they continue to overcome, thanks to what she's learned at the SMart Center.Christie takes listeners back to the moments that reshaped how she saw her son: learning to look at him as an individual rather than who she expected him to be, and holding onto Dr. E's "look, listen, and learn" approach even when progress didn't move in a straight line. She shares the rose story that has stayed with her ever since — Dr. E's metaphor comparing children to a dozen roses, some blooming right away and one, like her son, tightly closed at first but guaranteed to open in its own time — and how it helped her stop expecting him to share her own outgoing temperament.Christie also describes the turning point that convinced her progress was real: the day her son spoke to a friend's mom during a playdate they'd carefully arranged, which snowballed into him adding more kids, then more adults, into his circle. She talks about the biggest shift she had to make as a parent — slowing down and reflecting on how her son interacts with people before deciding how to help him — and closes with encouragement for any parent who feels discouraged: you're not alone, the resources are there, and while it won't happen overnight, the work pays off.

A former boss once described their first meeting this way: “She showed up late and disheveled, and I hired her anyway.” That's Sabrina Caluori in a nutshell. Sabrina is the chief marketing officer at Chief, the largest private network for ambitious women. Diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, she describes herself as a contradiction: “High achieving and a hot mess in equal measure” — a leader who can hold an entire company's strategy in her head but can't manage her own calendar. Sabrina shares what it's like to be gifted with ADHD — twice exceptional — and how that experience bonds her to her 2e child. She gets into ADHD burnout, self-doubt, and how the things she once considered character flaws turned out to make her exceptional at reading people and leading teams.

In this deeply personal episode of This Is Bipolar, Dr. Andrea Vassilev sits down with Shaley Hoogendoorn for an honest conversation about one of the most difficult and unexpected years of Shaley's life. Shaley opens up about the sudden end of her marriage, how she discovered that her life was about to change, and what it has been like to navigate the shock, grief, and trauma of a divorce she never saw coming. Andrea helps Shaley look back on the past year—not just at what happened, but at what happened inside of her as she tried to process an enormous loss while also living with bipolar disorder. Together, they talk about the impact that trauma, grief, uncertainty, and attachment injury can have on mental health and mood stability. Shaley shares candidly about how this experience affected her bipolar disorder, the fear of becoming unwell during a crisis, and the work it has taken to recognize what is trauma, what is grief, and what may be connected to bipolar symptoms. The conversation also explores self-stigma and the complicated feelings that can surface when someone with bipolar disorder is struggling. Instead of simply being allowed to grieve, there can be an added layer of questioning: Is this a normal response to what I've been through? Is this my bipolar disorder? Am I becoming unwell? Can I trust myself? Shaley and Andrea discuss the things that have helped Shaley move through the past year, including therapy, medication, community, peer support, self-care, honesty, and learning to trust herself again. They also talk about healing when there is no neat ending—when you're still living in the "messy middle" and taking life one small step at a time. This isn't a story told from the other side with everything wrapped up in a bow. It's a conversation about what it looks like to keep going while you're still grieving, rebuilding, parenting, managing bipolar disorder, and figuring out what your life looks like now. It's an honest update on where Shaley has been, where she is today, and the hope she is slowly finding as she begins to imagine what might come next. (00:08:25) The phone search that revealed “divorce lawyer” (00:11:09) The first weeks of shock, panic, and physical overwhelm (00:16:24) Trauma, fragmentation, and why the story feels hard to tell (00:19:04) Losing the identity of wife, stay-at-home mom, and financial safety (00:22:52) Ambiguous grief and the death of a life that could have been (00:25:06) How the crisis affected bipolar symptoms (00:28:44) Suicidal ideation and getting through the worst moments safely (00:31:02) Self-stigma, feeling unlovable, and challenging that belief (00:37:28) Protecting sleep, medication changes, and weekly therapy (00:46:16) Glimmers, future hopes, and learning to trust myself again with Shaley Hoogendoorn for an honest conversation about one of the most difficult and unexpected years of Shaley's life.

Chronic traumatic encephalopathy can only be confirmed after death, but questions about whether someone had the mental capacity to sign a will have to be answered while they're still alive. With CTE showing up in a large share of former NFL players, this episode walks through the four legal elements of testamentary capacity in Texas, how memory loss and impulsive behavior can raise red flags during the signing of a will, and what families and attorneys should document at signing to protect it from a later challenge.

Episode Overview:  In this episode of The Penis Project Podcast, Melissa speaks with Kerry, whose partner Matt was diagnosed with prostate cancer at 41. Kerry was 33. This is her story, told from the seat we don't hear enough, the partner's.  It starts with a motorbike. Matt has a vintage Honda CB750, his pride and joy and he is always looking for a reason to ride it. So, in September 2019 when they saw the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride advertised, they thought “let's do it”. They bought suits, made their donation, and rode up the freeway in open-faced helmets. Sounds dangerous but this act may have saved Matt's life.  Before the ride, a couple in their late fifties or early sixties got up, reluctantly, and talked about their prostate cancer journey. Kerry listened intently taking onboard their powerful message. They rode, had the best day, went home, and Kerry said to Matt: you're 40 now, next time you're at the doctor's maybe get a baseline PSA check.  Four months later Matt was walking out the door to see his GP about headaches. Kerry called out as the door was closing “make sure you get a PSA added on”. His GP, thankfully, was pro men's health and simply did the test. It came back around 7. For a man his age, it should have been under 1.  What followed is a lesson. A repeat test three weeks later, was still significantly raised, so Matt was referred to a urologist for further investigation. An MRI was ordered; it came back clear. A less curious surgeon might have stopped there. This one however said there was still something elevating that PSA and decided to do a biopsy. Matt was completely asymptomatic, which is very normal with prostate cancer. Without that blood test, and without that biopsy, they would never have known.  The result came by phone, because it was COVID, and Kerry was at work. Matt took the call alone and his two children, then 9 and 12, were the ones who had to comfort him first. Gleason 7. And a sentence Kerry has never quite shaken: if they had not found it when they did, they would have been looking at around ten years before it became terminal. Most men are not even thinking about their prostate until they are 50.  Before the surgery, Dr Brown put children on their radar. Kerry did not have kids and was not certain she wanted them, and Matt already had two, but banking sperm beforehand was the best chance of ever having the option. Around the surgery they were well supported, most of it over Zoom because of COVID.   Kerry is honest about what she carried in silence. In her early thirties, five years into the relationship, she was quietly terrified about what their sex life would look like on the other side and said none of it out loud. She was his rock and he was already carrying enough. So, she researched instead: continence underwear that looks like normal jocks, whether men can orgasm without ejaculating, how to be intimate without intercourse. She and Melissa unpack why “I just want him alive” is said with total love and heard as something else entirely.  The good news is very good. Matt has been cancer-free ever since, and their sex life recovered further and faster than either of them dared expect. Their son Thomas, just over three, arrived through IVF using the sperm they banked, and carries the middle name of the great-grandfather whose prostate cancer nobody had joined the dots on. Matt's diagnosis also prompted his own dad to get retested; he had prostate cancer and did not know it. Between them, Kerry and Matt have now walked at least fourteen men through this, and every year they polish the bike and speak at the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride, because one reluctant couple with a microphone in 2019 is the reason Matt is alive.    Golden Tip: Prostate cancer is not an old man's disease.    Key Message from Kerry  Your life does not end at the diagnosis.  Kerry's message to partners is that whatever recovery looks like on the other side, it can still be full, and it can still be fulfilling. Intimacy does not stop at a prostate cancer diagnosis. It changes, and it takes work, and it may take time, but it is not over.  Her message to everyone else is simpler still. It is one blood test. Matt had no symptoms at all. That single test set off a journey they were not prepared for, but as Kerry puts it, there is nothing as good as knowing you did everything you could to catch it as early as you possibly could.    Resources & Links  “Brave”: Kerry and Matt's Distinguished Gentleman's Ride video, made by the same couple whose speech prompted Matt to get tested.

Peter McLaughlin was given a twin diagnosis 23 years ago: Lyme disease and leukemia on the same day. The doctors told him if he was lucky, he had 10 years. They didn't know what caused it and they didn't know how to cure it. So he went looking himself. What he found in the depths of his own psyche became the foundation of an entire life's work in hypnotherapy, past life regression, Havening, and subconscious reprogramming. He's been healthy for 23 years. And in this conversation, he shares what he learned along the way, including one of the most fascinating explanations I've ever heard for why we drink. We get into what hypnosis actually is and why the entertainment version of it has given most people completely the wrong idea. We talk about how trauma gets encoded in the nervous system as safe or not safe, and why that single distinction explains almost every self-sabotaging pattern people can't seem to break. We go into past life regression, what happens emotionally when someone encounters a lifetime they consciously have no memory of.  And we talk about alcohol. Specifically, why it's called spirits. What it actually does energetically when you drink. And how Peter uses future progression in hypnosis to help people feel, in their body, the 10-year contrast between two versions of their life, one that keeps drinking and one that doesn't.   IN THIS EPISODE  The twin diagnosis that sent Peter into the depths of his own subconscious, and what he found there What hypnosis actually is, why the entertainment version gets it completely wrong, and the everyday experience almost everyone has had that is genuinely hypnotic Why alcohol is called spirits, and what Peter believes is actually happening energetically when you drink How root cause healing differs from symptom management, and why going back to the origin of a pattern is the only thing that actually resolves it Past life regression: what it feels like from the inside, what happens emotionally, and why the most mundane past lives are often the most moving Havening: what it is, how it works, and why the magic isn't in the tapping The future progression technique Peter uses with clients, and why the 10-year contrast is so powerful Why other people don't give you love, they just trigger the feelings you're already capable of generating yourself The one book Peter recommends above all others, and why he reread it after his father died   Find Peter at blueskyhypnosis.com and on YouTube at Blue Sky Hypnosis, where his past life regression track has nearly a million views.

In 2006, a landmark report titled Closing the Gap: Research and Care Imperatives for Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer confirmed what young survivors had been saying for years. While survival rates for children and older adults had steadily improved, adolescents and young adults had experienced decades of stalled progress. They had become cancer's lost generation.This episode explores how young adult survivors transformed their shared isolation into one of the most influential grassroots movements in cancer advocacy. Diagnosed during the years typically devoted to education, careers, relationships, and starting families, patients between the ages of 15 and 39 confronted challenges that extended far beyond treatment. Fertility preservation, sexual health, employment, financial toxicity, insurance, and long-term quality of life were rarely discussed in oncology clinics, leaving many to navigate survivorship alone.The episode follows advocates including Tamika Felder, Lindsay Avner, Heidi Adams, Doug Ulman, and Dr. Archie Bleyer, whose research and advocacy fundamentally changed how medicine understands adolescent and young adult cancer. Through organizations including Planet Cancer, Fertile Hope, the Lance Armstrong Foundation, and later Stupid Cancer, survivors built online communities, educational resources, conferences, and national partnerships that challenged long-standing assumptions about cancer care. Their work helped establish fertility preservation as a standard discussion before treatment, expanded research dedicated to adolescent and young adult oncology, and elevated quality of life as a critical clinical outcome alongside survival.The movement also demonstrated the power of lived experience to reshape medicine. Survivors became researchers, educators, nonprofit founders, and policy advocates, insisting that cancer care account not only for years of life saved, but for the lives patients hoped to build afterward.What began as a search for peers evolved into a national movement that permanently transformed adolescent and young adult oncology. Today, dedicated research programs, clinical fellowships, survivorship resources, and patient advocacy organizations continue to build on the foundation these young cancer mavericks created.RELATED LINKSNational Cancer Institute | Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancer Program⁠Closing the Gap: Research and Care Imperatives for Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer⁠American Society of Clinical Oncology | Fertility Preservation Guidelines⁠Stupid Cancer⁠Livestrong Foundation⁠Journal of Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology⁠FEEDBACKLike this episode?

For the second time in just a few months on this podcast, we heard the story of a Fungal Infection that attacked a child who was in treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and this infection could not be stopped for causing a child to pass away. This time it was Lola Aguilar, the 6 year old daughter of Alyssa who spoke beautifully on our podcast about what her beloved daughter had to go through after falling to the floor on Halloween in 2024, just as she was about to go Trick or Treating.

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Start with my this training: Stop Trying to “Fix” Your ADHD. You're Not Broken: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/sign-up_____Have you ever tried to fix your spouse? Push a little harder, remind a little more, explain it one more time, and eventually they will just get it?Jackie Kelley did that for years. Then she realized the thing she kept trying to change was often just a brain that worked differently from hers.Jackie is a neurodivergent content creator, illustrator, children's book author, wife, mother, and founder of JK Illustrates. Diagnosed with ADHD at 30, after motherhood knocked down what she calls the “perfect house of cards” she had built around herself, she began sharing what she was learning about ADHD, marriage, and family life. Her viral “Marriage Rules” videos took off in 2024, and her book, So You Married a Human, comes out October 6.She and her husband married two weeks after she graduated, having never spent more than 72 consecutive hours together. Two very different neurodivergent brains, each convinced the other person's way was the problem, eventually built a set of rules to communicate better in the middle of conflict.In this episode, Jackie and Tracy get into “Voted Off the Island,” “No Wrong Answer,” “Do It Yourself,” and “Love This Idea for Five Minutes.” They also talk about sensory overload, defensiveness, the “little man” screaming in everyone's head, why the goal of a fight cannot be winning, and why laughter matters so much in an ADHD marriage.If you have ever quietly resented your partner for not doing something the way your brain needs it done, this one is for you.Resources: Website: https://www.stayathomejackie.com Website: https://www.jkillustrates.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Stayathomejackie Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stayathomejackie Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message Explore more from me:

How do you find joy in suffering? That's one of the questions Christian Wiman explores in his poetry and his life.The former editor of Poetry magazine, Wiman is the author of seven books of poetry, including his latest, The Dance. He also teaches at Yale Divinity School. He's been called “the most important Christian writer in America,” though his relationship with God is marked by uncertainty as much as faith. That tension runs through his poetry, where mystical experience, doubt, suffering, and joy continually collide.His understanding of mortality is also shaped by a 20-year battle with cancer. Diagnosed with a rare form of lymphoma and initially given only a few years to live, Wiman has come close to death several times. Yet he speaks about suffering not simply as something to endure, but as a strange territory in which beauty and wonder can sometimes be found.Wiman craves direct experiences of the world, but he finds that writing poetry helps him fully appreciate these fleeting moments of awe and wonder. A frosted hosta, an old candlestick, the trills of a red-winged blackbird—small encounters like these can open onto deeper questions about meaning, eternity, and what Wordsworth called “seeing into the life of things.”—00:00:00 Intro00:02:40 Poetry, Awe and Wonder00:15:10 Twenty Years Battling Cancer00:21:55 Joy in Suffering00:30:45 Seeing Into the Life of Things00:39:40 A Last Poem and Farewell—Links: Book: The Dance Book: Glimmerings: Letters on Faith Between a Poet and a Theologian Book: Zero at the Bone: Fifty Entries Against Despair Yale Divinity School website Profile of sculptor Lee Bontecou Wonder Cabinet is hosted by Anne Strainchamps and Steve Paulson.

Lindsay Clancy's defense says she heard voices on the day her children died. Every clinician who saw her before that day wrote down anxiety and depression. The postpartum psychosis diagnosis came after January 24, 2023, from a forensic psychiatrist working for the defense.In the months before the killings, Lindsay was prescribed thirteen psychiatric medications. She messaged her nurse practitioner Rebecca Jollotta almost daily asking to change them. She wrote about intrusive thoughts she had never experienced, about brain fog, about wanting help. Patrick Clancy told her doctors they were turning her into a zombie.Defense attorney Kevin Reddington isn't asking the jury to believe Lindsay didn't do it. He admitted that in his opening statement. He's arguing she wasn't criminally responsible — that postpartum psychosis, combined with a medication cascade no provider controlled, made her incapable of knowing what she was doing. He has spent three weeks dismantling the prosecution's medical witnesses on cross-examination and fighting to add new witnesses the judge initially barred.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the defense's strategy, its strongest testimony so far, and the fundamental challenge at the center of this case: convincing twelve people that a woman who killed her three children was too sick to be held accountable for it.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For my final episode as host of “Interesting Times,” I wanted a fitting finale — a conversation that encapsulates the ambition of this show: examining how seemingly radical ideas are steadily entering the mainstream of American politics, technology and culture. Few ideas are as radical as the hope of significant life extension and the quest to live forever. My guest today thinks he can outrun death. After selling his tech company for hundreds of millions of dollars and experiencing a profound religious crisis, Bryan Johnson turned his own body into the ultimate science project, centered on an explicit mission: Don't die. But why does Johnson want to live forever, and what lessons can his algorithmically driven lifestyle bring to the rest of us? It's been an honor hosting this podcast and navigating these strange waters with you. “Interesting Times” will be back with new episodes and new hosts in the fall. 0:00 Why Bryan Johnson Wants to Defeat Death 1:18 The Core Premise of "Don't Die" vs. Immortality 3:26 Selling Braintree/Venmo & Personal Collapse 6:33 Leaving the Mormon Church & Searching for Meaning 7:45 Launching Project Blueprint: Body as Philosophy 11:35 Bryan Johnson's Daily Longevity Routine & Biological Age Metrics 15:06 How AI Builds "Autonomous Health" for the Human Body 17:58 The Best Habits to Optimize Health: Sleep & Heart Rate 21:32 Blueprint Products, Supplements, & Testing 23:46 Reversing Biological Aging: Saunas & HBOT 25:24 Can Psychedelics Extend Lifespan?

Diagnosed narcissist Lee Hammock explains why narcissistic, toxic, or abusive partners rarely change, even when they promise therapy, growth, or a fresh start. I break down front-loading and love bombing, why rewarded behavior never stops, and why hoping they'll improve keeps survivors stuck in narcissistic paralysis. I also share my own rock-bottom story and explains why change only happens when someone is internally motivated, not for another person. This video is meant to empower survivors to release false hope and focus on their own healing journey.
