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.

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?

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:
Allyne Betancourt, a member of the Dr. Joe Dispenza healing community, joins Dr. Tara Perry to share one of the most extraordinary healing stories on the show to date: how she was diagnosed with advanced colorectal cancer, cured it holistically before ever undergoing surgery, and then — after surgeons removed most of her rectum anyway — used meditation and visualization to regenerate the organ back to nearly full size. Allyne walks through her refusal to "own" her cancer, the alternative protocols she combined with traditional treatment, the devastating aftermath of a surgery she now believes was unnecessary, and the dark night of the soul that led her to Dr. Joe Dispenza's work. The conversation closes with the medical documentation of her regeneration, the forgiveness work that made healing possible, and her hard-won belief that anyone — not just the exceptional — has this same capacity for the impossible.KEY TAKEAWAYS(00:02:38) Diagnosed with advanced T3 colorectal cancer and told surgery and a permanent colostomy bag were her only option — and her calm, immediate decision to refuse(00:05:37) "This is not my cancer" — why Allyne refused to own her diagnosis from day one, and how that mindset carried through seven months of treatment(00:10:01) Combining traditional treatment with alternative approaches: organic-only foods, raising her own grass-fed beef, and daily Buddhist chanting for hours at a time(00:11:54) Fasting five days before each chemo treatment — and the unusually severe reactions her oncologists had never seen before(00:19:27) The pressure to have surgery despite inconclusive scans, and her repeated request that doctors simply look before cutting(00:28:06) Waking up from surgery and instantly knowing she'd made a mistake — while the surgeon celebrated how well the procedure had gone(00:30:13) The physical toll of losing 8-10 centimeters of colon and most of her rectum: nonstop urgency, incontinence, and a dehumanizing new reality(00:36:04) Getting the lab results back — no cancer found anywhere in the tissue that was removed(00:37:15) Five months of worsening depression and a devastating conversation with her husband about not wanting to live like this anymore(00:39:50) The turning point: "I'm either going to live like this, or I have to grow another rectum"(00:46:04) Starting Dr. Joe Dispenza's meditation practice while running to the bathroom every 45-50 minutes, and the first sign of change after two months(00:52:16) Confronting the surgeon who performed the operation — and learning she had no idea Allyne never had cancer to begin with(00:59:50) The visualization practice Allyne used to dissolve scar tissue and "stretch" her remaining rectal tissue back toward full size(01:10:18) The colonoscopy that documented her rectum had grown from 3 centimeters to 10 centimeters, with no trace of scar tissue(01:15:46) Her message on breaking "the habit of being yourself" and why she believes healing the impossible isn't reserved for exceptional people(01:18:09) How Allyne has learned to meet life's setbacks with curiosity and trust instead of fear — even in the face of her husband's deathIf you're ready to take your healing to the next level, schedule your free consultation with Dr. Tara at: https://ConsultTara.com/book
I'm finally baaaaaaack! And this one's JUICY.
Imagine your spouse or significant other has been diagnosed with MS...shortly after you were diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer, and given just a 15% chance of survival. All of a sudden, the roles of patient and care partner are up for grabs -- and they change with almost daily frequency. That's exactly the scenario my guest, Kathleen Silva, faced. Kathleen is joining me to discuss how she and her husband, Rick, survived and thrived amid that frightening chaos. (Spoiler alert -- no one died!) We'll also tell you about an investigational drug that's the first to promise neuroprotection during an MS relapse. We're sharing study results that show people with MS who meet the medical criteria aren't jumping on the GLP-1 bandwagon. We'll provide compelling evidence for anyone with MS to quit smoking. And we're breaking down the results of a study that analyzed mortality rates in cases where MS was listed as the underlying cause of death. We have a lot to talk about!

"Once you get through the labels, leadership becomes about dealing with the heart, soul, and core of who a person is." GigSalad co-founder and CEO Mark Steiner joins host Josh Seldin to explore how a late-in-life ADHD diagnosis transformed his perspective on leadership, empathy, and talent development. Mark shares his journey from acting to co-founding a thriving online marketplace, offering a candid look at how understanding neurodiversity can help leaders build truly human-centered, high-performing organizations. Josh and Mark dive into why traditional corporate molds often fail diverse thinkers, how leaders can shift from rigid metrics to curiosity-driven management, and the immense value of investing in employees' long-term strengths. From giving team members the freedom to pivot into roles where they excel to fostering environments where people don't feel forced to mask who they are, this episode provides an inspiring, actionable playbook on leading with compassion, adaptability, and vision. Key Takeaways: ✅ The Late-Diagnosis Perspective: How discovering ADHD at age 57 brought clarity, peace, and a fresh lens for recognizing potential in non-traditional thinkers. ✅ Beyond Standard Molds: Why rigid corporate environments force diverse thinkers to mask, and how leaders can build flexible systems that support unique minds. ✅ Investing in Strengths Over Titles: The business case for patience, mentorship, and allowing team members to explore different functions to find their unique "sweet spot." ✅ Curiosity Over Assumption: How replacing top-down directives with genuine inquiry builds psychological safety and uncovers what team members truly need to succeed. ✅ Flat Hierarchies & Low Ego: Why stripping away corporate arrogance and approaching your team as equal partners cultivates lasting loyalty and alignment. ✅ Embracing Continuous Growth: How viewing life changes and identity shifts at any age can drive renewed purpose, confidence, and momentum in leadership.
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?

Thirteen medications. Daily messages to her nurse practitioner begging for changes. Journal entries describing intrusive thoughts she'd never had before and a desperate desire to get well. Not one clinician diagnosed Lindsay Clancy with postpartum psychosis before January 24, 2023.Every provider who treated her documented anxiety and depression. The psychosis diagnosis came afterward, from a forensic psychiatrist working with the defense. Lindsay's attorney Kevin Reddington told the jury she heard voices that day — "This is your last chance" — and that the medical system failed to identify what was happening to her.Reddington has spent three weeks in Plymouth Superior Court building that argument through cross-examination. He dismantled Lindsay's psychiatrist over fourteen telehealth-only sessions. He exposed gaps in her medical records. He read her journal entries aloud to the jury. The defense conceded on day one that Lindsay killed her children. The entire case turns on whether the jury believes she was someone else when it happened.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the defense's approach — what's working, where the diagnosis gap creates risk, and whether Reddington's strategy of putting the providers on trial can overcome the historical reluctance of juries to accept insanity defenses in cases involving children.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?

Send us Fan MailThere's a gap between knowing what to do and actually doing it, and most people live in that gap far longer than they need to. Jayne Havens doesn't. Diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, she says her brain just doesn't do the "should I, shouldn't I" loop; she treats her business like a video game she's playing against herself, one level beaten so she can get to the next one. The strategy part was never really the hard part for her. The hard part is making the call in the first place.Join Anna and Tim as they talk with Jayne, a sleep consultant who built a business, then built a second business teaching other people how to become sleep consultants, about what actually separates people who follow through from people who stay stuck. It's not a better plan or more information. It's deciding, outsourcing what isn't your strength, and trusting yourself enough to keep going before you have it all figured out.This Episode Covers:The advice from her father that made spending money on her business feel easy instead of scary.Why she still gets burnt out carrying the weight of her clients' anxiety, even when she loves the work.The boundaries she puts in place so a trip abroad doesn't put her business at risk.Why she believes hiring people who don't show up the way you would can quietly destroy a business.The moment she felt embarrassed to tell her own family that she wanted more.Her take on the worst advice you can follow: someone else's plan for your life.What she wishes more people understood about why entrepreneurs actually do this work.Connect with Jayne:Website - https://thesnoozefest.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/snoozefestbyjaynehavensFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/SnoozeFestbyJayneHavens/ Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.Mad love!Book a Discovery Call for Coaching/Therapy: https://calendly.com/badassconfidencecoach/coachingThe podcast is now on YouTube!

Lainy Sharpe began to feel numbness in her legs, followed by paralysis when she was 12 years old in the summer of 2023. Her diagnosis was Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma, which as rare of a diagnosis as it gets. Lainy fought as hard as possible before passing away in January of 2025 and was very much a part of the Pediatric Cancer community during her fight, which was proven by her winning the Children's Healthy Hero Award for her dedication to helping others at Banner Children's Hospital in Tucson, Arizona.

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.

Lauri Beale never imagined a routine visit would end with her 5-year-old daughter being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. What followed was an 11-month honeymoon phase that left her family in a constant state of uncertainty. While her daughter was still producing some insulin, every day felt unpredictable, and Lauri found herself waiting for the other shoe to drop.In this conversation with Risely's Director of Coaching, Abby Cooper, Lauri shares what the first year after diagnosis really looked like. From the mental load that consumed every conversation with her husband to learning how to parent as a team without letting diabetes take over their family, she opens up about the challenges most parents don't expect. She also shares how expanding her toolkit through coaching, prioritizing her own mental health, and reframing blood sugar data helped her move from fear to confidence. If you're raising a child with type 1 diabetes and wondering whether life will ever feel manageable again, this episode offers practical hope from someone who's been there.WHAT WE COVER:What an 11-month honeymoon phase practically looked like with insulin dosing The simple communication rule that stopped diabetes from taking over every conversation in their marriageThe three things that helped Lauri stop living in survival mode after her daughter's diagnosisThe biggest frustrations with their endocrinology appointments, and how they got the confidence to stop waiting in between appointments to make changesHow they started building diabetes independence in their 6-year-old without putting too much on her shouldersThe mindset and management changes that helped increase their daughter Regan's Time in Range from 65% to 85%WHAT'S NEXT:
Alicia Rush was in crisis and had reached the point where she no longer wanted to live. She gathered her medication and headed toward the woods, but then remembered it was her son's birthday — a moment that interrupted her plan and helped pull her back. It was not the only time Alicia felt that level of hopelessness. After thyroid cancer left her living with a tracheostomy, she felt isolated in her trauma and unsure how she could face the rest of her life. Alicia never imagined that cancer would take away her voice — twice. After surviving two tracheostomies, multiple surgeries, and life-threatening complications, she discovered something even more powerful than words: the strength to keep sharing her story. Today, Alicia speaks to anyone who has felt hopeless, reminding them that even in the darkest moments, there can still be a reason to hold on. Two trachs. Two near-deaths. And a powerful new purpose born from the pain. What if surviving cancer wasn't the hardest part? At fifty, Alicia Baca Rush thought she was preparing for a new chapter in her life — but nothing could have prepared her for what came next. Diagnosed with Stage 2 thyroid cancer, Alicia faced more than surgeries and hospital rooms; she faced losing her voice, her independence, and nearly her life — twice. In this raw, heart-wrenching, and ultimately uplifting memoir, Alicia shares her extraordinary journey through not one but two tracheotomies, life-threatening complications, and a relentless fight to reclaim her identity. She opens the door on moments few dare to speak about — the betrayal of a failing medical system, the loneliness of healing, and the emotional scars that linger long after the physical ones fade. But this isn't just a story of survival. It's a story of resilience. Of finding purpose in pain, of discovering that even when your voice is reduced to a whisper, your message can roar louder than ever. Perfect for readers navigating illness, trauma, or personal reinvention, The Good Kind of Cancer is a beacon of hope, honesty, and fierce determination. Alicia doesn't shy away from the hard truths — including the fear, the setbacks, and the two times she nearly died — but she also shows us what's possible when you choose to turn pain into power. If you or someone you love has ever wondered "Why me?", this book will remind you that even in your darkest moments, you are not alone — and that every breath you fight for has meaning.

What happens when a man diagnosed with prostate cancer decides not to undergo surgery or radiation?In this episode of the Intellectual Medicine podcast, Dr. Stephen Petteruti shares the true story of a 51-year-old patient diagnosed with biopsy-confirmed prostate cancer who chose a different path. After years of active surveillance, repeated MRIs, and multiple biopsies, the patient sought an alternative approach designed to monitor his cancer without additional biopsies while focusing on preserving his health and quality of life.Dr. Petteruti explains the rationale behind his non-biopsy monitoring protocol, which combines advanced imaging, lifestyle modification, nutritional strategies, and carefully selected repurposed medications. He discusses how the patient's MRI findings improved dramatically over time and why those results should be interpreted cautiously rather than viewed as evidence of a cure.Throughout the episode, Dr. Petteruti also explores the limitations of PSA testing, the role of PSMA PET imaging, and the importance of understanding all available treatment options before making life-changing decisions. Prostate cancer management should aim not only to control the disease but also to preserve vitality, function, and quality of life.Timestamps(00:00) Diagnosed with prostate cancer at age 51(01:15) Active surveillance and the burden of repeated biopsies(02:40) Introducing a non-biopsy monitoring approach(04:10) Building a protocol: repurposed drugs, lifestyle, and nutrition(05:45) MRI changes from PI-RADS 4 to PI-RADS 1(07:00) Why this is not evidence of a cure(07:45) PSMA PET scan: looking beyond the prostate(08:25) Why PSA alone doesn't tell the whole story(09:20) Preserving vitality while managing prostate cancer(10:25) Why patients deserve more than two treatment optionsEnjoy the podcast?

In this episode of the MindHealth360 Show, I sit down with Judy whose remarkable journey has challenged long-held assumptions about Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline. Diagnosed with Alzheimer's at the age of 67 after watching her mother and four uncles die from the disease, Judy believed her future had already been written. Instead, she became Dr. Dale Bredesen's 'patient zero' – his first human patient to follow the personalised precision medicine approach that would later become the RECODE Programme. Together, they explored whether identifying and addressing the many factors contributing to cognitive decline could alter the course of the disease. Judy's experience went on to help shape one of the most widely discussed personalised approaches to Alzheimer's disease. Together, we explore why Alzheimer's may not be driven by a single cause, but by a combination of underlying factors that differ from person-to-person. Judy explains how nutrition, sleep, exercise, stress reduction, detoxification and other personalised interventions became the foundation of her approach and why consistency has been just as important as the interventions themselves. Fourteen years after her diagnosis, at the age of 81, Judy is fitter, healthier and cognitively sharper than ever. To prove it, she walked 3,000 miles across America to raise awareness of Dr. Bredesen's work and to share a message of hope for others facing cognitive decline. Now, at 82, she is currently walking from Land's End to London, across the UK.. Her extraordinary and inspirational story invites us to reconsider what is possible when cognitive decline is addressed through a personalised, whole-person approach. In this episode, you'll learn: What it was like to receive an Alzheimer's diagnosis after watching dementia affect five close members of Judy's family. How Judy became Dr. Dale Bredesen's 'patient zero' and helped inspire the personalised approach that became the RECODE Programme. Why Alzheimer's may be driven by multiple underlying factors rather than a single disease process. Why identifying and addressing those underlying factors supports better brain health, and better overall health. Why early intervention, lifestyle changes and long-term consistency have been central to Judy's experience. How Judy went from an Alzheimer's diagnosis at 67 to walking 3,000 miles across America at the age of 81 and now, at the age of 82, Judy is walking 530 miles across the UK. What Judy's story reveals about emerging precision medicine approaches to cognitive decline. Why Judy believes hope and taking an active role in your health makes all the difference. Take the conversation further at IMMH 2026 At this year's Integrative Medicine for Mental Health (IMMH) Conference, Judy Benjamin will join Dr. Kat Toups, Dr. Dale Bredesen and Dr. Richard Horowitz for a dedicated session on reversing cognitive decline through personalised, precision medicine. The session will explore groundbreaking results from a randomised controlled trial of precision medicine in Alzheimer's disease, alongside the clinical approaches being used to identify and address the individual drivers of cognitive decline. Join Judy and leading experts in neurodegeneration at IMMH 2026, October 8–11 in San Diego.
Jasper Eales calls himself "a living upcycled human." Diagnosed with Crohn's disease and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis as a teenager, he underwent a liver transplant in his twenties after a ten-month wait for a donor match. That experience reshaped everything: his relationship with time, with risk, and with the idea that something broken or discarded can be rebuilt into something better. A consulting project put a pile of retired yacht sails in front of him, and in 2015 he and fellow surfer Mike Schlebach co-founded Sealand Gear,handcrafting bags and apparel from upcycled sails, Bedouin stretch tents, and advertising banners. They launched at The Old Biscuit Mill in Woodstock. A decade later, Sealand has upcycled over 105 tonnes of material from landfill, holds B Corp certification, and is a member of 1% For The Planet. The brand has been featured in MR PORTER, Design Indaba, and Men's Health South Africa, and won awards including the 2019 Twyg Sustainable Fashion Award and the 2024 V&A Waterfront Our Better Nature Sustainability Award. Behind the product sits the Protect Our Paths Foundation, co-founded by Sealand and Skybound Capital, which employs previously unemployed custodians to clean shared natural spaces across Cape Town, inspired by a man named Keith Kleans who was already keeping Saunders Beach clean on his own. In this episode, Jasper and Aaron explore: The transplant and what came after: what it means to receive an organ from another life, to call yourself "upcycled," and how that experience became the foundation for a design philosophy built around the beauty of things that have been repaired rather than replaced The consulting project, the sails, and the Old Biscuit Mill: how a freelance job revealed an opportunity in discarded yacht sails, what those early days looked like selling furniture from a market stall, and the leap from noticing waste to building a company around it "Perfectly imperfect" and the stamp inside the bag: why every Sealand product carries the name of the machinist who made it, what Sealand means when they use the word "responsibility" rather than "sustainability," and how the founding WHY shapes decisions a profit-first framework would make differently Protect Our Paths and the custodians: the story of Keith Kleans and Saunders Beach, how one man cleaning a beach on his own became a registered foundation with seven custodians across four Cape Town sites Scaling impact when your raw material is waste: whether access to discarded sails and banners is the real constraint on growth, and what it looks like to commercialise upcycling at scale while keeping each product handmade Freedom over funding: why Jasper is not chasing the next raise, and what the breathing room lets him focus on The upside-down reader: how learning to read differently made him a better designer, and what it taught him about education systems that reward conformity over curiosity Family, the ocean, and the next twenty years: how having kids changed his urgency about the planet, what flexibility means to someone whose body nearly failed him, and what he hopes the next generation does differently This is a conversation about the gap between what we discard and what still has life in it, about a man who knows that gap in his own body and in the materials he works with every day.

Functionally Enlightened - Better ways to heal from chronic pain and illness
Is Multiple Sclerosis (MS) truly an autoimmune disease—or could chronic infections and parasites play a much larger role than we've been led to believe?In this thought-provoking episode of the Functionally Enlightened Podcast, Dr. Sharon Surita sits down with Pam Bartha, founder of Live Disease Free and author of Become a Wellness Champion.Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1988 and told to prepare for lifelong disability, Pam refused to accept that prognosis.

More than 35 years later, she continues to live free from MS symptoms and has helped over 2,000 individuals across 15 countries explore a root-cause approach to chronic illness.Together, Sharon and Pam discuss why many chronic illness protocols fall short, the role of parasites and co-infections, and why supporting the body first may be essential before addressing deeper infectious burdens.In this episode you'll learn:✔ Why Pam believes MS has an infectious component✔ The relationship between parasites, gut health, and chronic inflammation✔ Why conventional parasite testing may miss many infections✔ The impact of microbiome disruption and antibiotic overuse✔ How diet may influence inflammation and immune function✔ Why mold, toxic burden, and environmental exposures matter✔ The importance of addressing the body as an interconnected system✔ Why mindset and consistency are essential during recoveryWhether you're living with MS, implant illness, autoimmune symptoms, neurological dysfunction, or another complex chronic condition, this conversation offers a different perspective on asking deeper questions and exploring potential root contributors to illness.Please note: The views expressed in this interview are those of the guest and are shared for educational purposes.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm so honored to have back on the show once again: Masonic Ritual Abuse Victim, Survivor and now Whistleblower for the first time, medical intuitive biofeedback practitioner for 40+ years, empath entrepreneur, public speaker and improv comedian, clean farming and nature lover, podcast regular, and an incredible hero coming forward to advocate for whistleblower and survivor protection and safety and to do everything in her power to facilitate the change she wishes to see in the world: Allison AdamsHere's a little bit about Allison in case you're new here, missed her previous riveting episodes, or need a little recap:Long before tragedy sought her out, Allison had already forged a remarkable path as an outsider by choice and circumstance. Diagnosed with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy as a child, she refused to let the condition define her. For 45 years she mastered it through an unwavering commitment to clean food, restorative sleep, mindfulness, and inner sovereignty. What began as biofeedback evolved into her superpower - a disciplined daily practice of awareness and control that kept her vibrant, grounded, and free. Her days overflowed with simple, genuine joys: gym friendships, miles of hiking through the pristine woods of the Appalachian foothills, lunch dates, and the deep sharing that arises from authentic human connection. She moved through life with openness and trust, befriending a woman at the gym whose warmth and companionship blossomed into shared hikes, stories exchanged in the soulful quiet of the forest, and a sense of belonging she had long sought.But that trust was brutally weaponized. For two years, a sophisticated network stalked and targeted her, harvesting her personal details and turning them into traps. Then in April 2020, on the patio of an acquaintance named Marty, a James Beard-nominated chef connected to the network, Allison was drugged with at least four substances and plunged into ten harrowing missing hours of ritualistic horror: violation, strangulation, hazing, and orchestrated terror at the hands of an organized collective of community pillars, restaurant owners, and others who gathered to inflict pain on her. Yet even in that altered state, her decades of biofeedback training awakened. While her body appeared unconscious, her mind remained hyperaware - absorbing fragments that would later become the foundation of her reconstructed truth.Allison was not born into a multi-generational cult family. She was a “regular” woman - lured, hunted, and caught by the cult-group who abused her - revealing how insidious and organized the darkness can be, and how anyone can become a target when trust is exploited. In the brutal months and years of recovery that followed, she patiently gathered clues, memories, and inner knowing. Piece by piece she reconstructed what happened, applying the same mastery that once tamed her epilepsy to survival and healing. Physical imprints remained: a high-impact collarbone injury that physical therapists associated only with extreme trauma, hair that transformed overnight from stick-straight to dramatically curly for years, and a debilitating mystery illness she later identified as stemming from injected parasites that left her bedridden for days at a time, attacked her liver, produced agonizing rashes, and nearly claimed her life. Through relentless self-advocacy, research, and protocols including ivermectin and related antiparasitics, she fought her way back toward remission, reclaiming energy, clarity, and vitality.Allison is still living in the town where the attack occurred, still navigating ongoing targeting - including a home invasion we detailed on her last episode. She knows the risks yet will not be deterred. Survival, for her, is not passive endurance; it is active rising, speaking, organizing, and loving the vulnerable more fiercely because she knows the cost. Rooted in inner discipline, practiced awareness, and unyielding courage, she has become a force of justice and healing. She calls for safety, shelter, support, and protection for those brave enough to expose the darkness. Her message is clear and urgent: “Do what you can, but do something.”
In 1974, Mike Sinyard sold his Volkswagen van to go and buy bike components in Italy. Fifty years later, Specialized is one of the most iconic brands in world cycling — and at seventy-seven, he still rides.He welcomed me to the Morgan Hill headquarters in California, in the room they built for Peter Sagan. What was meant to be an interview about the bike industry became the most personal episode I've ever recorded.Because Mike has ADHD. Diagnosed late, like so many people. Fourteen years ago, he read the story of a kid who told his doctor: "Riding is my Ritalin." He called the doctor, learned that no pharmaceutical company would ever fund the research, and decided to fund it himself. Today, fifty thousand kids go through his OutRide foundation every year.We also talked about the Stumpjumper, born without a single piece of market research; about Robert Egger walking into a bike shop and saying "that's shit, I could do better"; about the Chinese brands and his answer to them — "it's nothing new"; about DJI's Avinox, gravel, artificial intelligence, women's racing, and his conviction that we'll soon look back at how we medicate our children the way we now look back at people smoking.⏱️ Chapters:00:00 — Introduction02:22 — Can a bike really change a life?04:09 — "Riding is my Ritalin": how OutRide began07:43 — Seventy-seven years old, and still no retirement10:31 — Finding a successor, and the soul of Specialized13:45 — Robert Egger, the Stumpjumper and the roots of the brand18:01 — Chinese brands: where does a brand's value lie?24:09 — E-bikes, Avinox and depending on a single supplier27:17 — The future of cycling, and kids on e-bikes30:28 — Racing, riders, and the price of caring37:54 — Gravel, heir to the touring bike — and riding in Asia43:03 — Artificial intelligence and cycling45:54 — What he still wants to accomplish47:04 — "We are over-medicating our children"49:48 — ADHD as a superpower50:43 — Starting over today, and Specialized in fifty years54:57 — The guest he'd like to hear, and the Green Room01:01:16 — What we can wish him01:02:55 — Closing words
After winning the Vault event and finishing 2nd in the All Around Competition in the Hawaii Gymnastics Championship in November of 2017, 11 year old Kaylan Haywood competed for the first time since her winning performance in January of 2018. What resulted was Kaylan's side being weak, her foot was dragging, and her arm was hanging. In February she was diagnosed with DIPG and only was able to live for 6 more months, as she passed away on August of 2018 from this most dreaded form of Pediatric Brain Cancer.

In this six-part podcast series, we walk through Freya India's book GIRLS: Gen Z and the Commodification of Everything, examining how online culture has shaped young women and how Christian parents can respond with biblical truth. In this fourth episode on Chapter 4, “Disconnected,” Kelly summarizes how Freya India describes the redefinition of friendship and community by online platforms and social media networks. Can an AI pendant named “Friend” be our answer? The problem is that the new definition of friend (along with the terms and conditions that apply) leaves only feelings of disconnection and loneliness. Today, the solutions offered are online communities and AI companions – neither of which fit the biblical model for human connection and community. Through Scripture, Kelly explains the fundamental human need for community and relationships and how Christians are called to love one another, forgive, serve, and endure all things. Christian parents have a responsibility to model, teach, guard, and guide true community and friendships.

What GLP-1 drugs don't tell you, why muscle is your longevity organ, and the surprising gut-estrogen connection.In Part 2 of my conversation with integrative oncology expert Dr. Nasha Winters, we dive into one of today's hottest topics: GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro. We unpack why losing weight doesn't always mean becoming healthier, why muscle is truly your longevity organ, and how body composition—not just the number on the scale—can dramatically impact your future health.We also finally answer the question we left hanging in Part 1: what is the estrobolome, and why does your gut bacteria have this much control over your estrogen? Dr. Nasha breaks down how to build your body's own natural GLP-1 production, what your continuous glucose monitor can teach you that has nothing to do with food, and one seriously blunt truth about hormones and your love life that might change how you think about your next doctor's visit.This conversation is science-backed, practical, and empowering, reminding us that there are no quick fixes when it comes to longevity—just small, consistent choices that build a healthier future…plus we give the steps to get there.In This Episode You'll Learn:Why losing muscle during weight loss can shorten longevity.The surprising reason body composition matters more than the scale.What "TOFI" (thin outside, fat inside) means, and why it's more dangerous than looking overweight.How visceral fat influences hormones and toxin storage.How to build your body's own natural GLP-1, no prescription required.Why intermittent fasting isn't one-size-fits-all—and how to do it safely.How morning sunlight and meal timing support metabolic health.The surprising insights that a continuous glucose monitors can teach you about your own body.The connection between gut bacteria, estrogen metabolism, and healthy aging.Why lifestyle always outperforms supplements and quick fixes.What waking up between 1 and 3 AM might be telling you about your liver.Dr. Nasha's genuinely candid take on libido, hormones, and what's really going on.…and more!About Our Guest Expert:Dr. Nasha Winters, ND, FABNO, is an internationally recognized leader in metabolic and integrative oncology and a pioneer of terrain-centered approaches to cancer and chronic illness.Diagnosed at age 19 stage IV ovarian cancer— at a time when the average patient with her diagnosis was nearly 50 years older than she was—Dr. Winters has spent more than three decades advancing a systems-based approach to health that explores the connections between metabolism, inflammation, circadian rhythm, environmental health, immune resilience, and emotional wellbeing. She is the creator of the Terrain Ten® framework, co-author of The Metabolic Approach to Cancer and Mistletoe and the Future of Integrative Oncology, and host of the Tend the Terrain Podcast.Connect with Dr. Nasha Winters:Instagram: @drnashawintersFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/drnashaincWebsite: https://drnasha.comTerrain Ten quiz: drnasha.com/quiz___________________________________Get Cleaner, Regulated, Better Supplements for LessDid your last order of vitamins come off a big online overnight shipping platform but you have no idea how long it was sitting in an overheated warehouse?Or maybe those Omega-3's you take are actually rancid but you wouldn't know?That's why I'm excited to have found a platform that is not only efficacious and 3rd-party lab tested, but also regulated to have the ingredients in them that are on the label!And Fullscript has 100+ brands of supplements you may already be taking…only better.

There are leaders who talk about putting people first, and then there are leaders who have actually staked their life on what happens when a system loses its rhythm. Hanna Bauer is the latter.Hanna is the founder of HEARTnomics Enterprises and faculty member with the Maxwell Leadership team. She has spent nearly three decades helping CEOs and leadership teams find the real root of why organizations struggle. Her answer might surprise you. It is rarely a people problem. It is almost always a systems problem.Diagnosed with a serious heart condition at age four, Hanna survived two heart attacks before the age of ten, went through multiple failed interventions, and eventually became one of the first children to undergo a pioneering heart ablation procedure, an experimental surgery that would go on to save the lives of three thousand other children.That experience did not translate into a leadership framework overnight. It took years, and a moment in a hospital hallway where someone told her that leadership is service, for everything to click. She had been leading all along.In this conversation, we talk about what it really means when an organization loses its rhythm, why treating symptoms instead of root causes keeps leaders stuck, and how trust, built through relationship, not automation, is the only thing that makes people willing to take a risk together when everything feels uncertain.Key TakeawaysPassion without process creates chaos. Systems are not the enemy of heart, they are what allow the heart to scale.You cannot give what you do not have. Before leading others, you have to get acquainted with your own rhythm.It is not failure that breaks trust, it is how you handle it. Hanna's doctor tried two surgeries that didn't work before the one that saved her life. The trust her family placed in him for that third attempt was built through honesty and never disappearing when things went wrong.Burnout feels like heart disease. When leaders run on duty rather than purpose, the cost is not just productivity, it is felt in the body.In appreciation for being here, I have some gifts for you:A LinkedIn Checklist for setting up your fully optimized Profile:An opportunity to test drive the Follow Up system I recommend by checking this presentation page - you won't regret it.

In this video, I break down the main differences between an overt narcissist and a covert narcissist, two faces of the same disorder that show up very differently in relationships. Overt (grandiose) narcissists are loud, attention‑seeking and openly entitled, while covert (vulnerable) narcissists are more introverted, sensitive, passive‑aggressive and often hide their self‑importance behind fake humility or a victim mentality. Drawing on clinical research about grandiose vs vulnerable narcissism and my own perspective as a diagnosed narcissist, we'll compare how each type rages, manipulates, plays the victim and reacts to criticism. If you've ever wondered why one narcissist brags nonstop and another seems shy, anxious or “too sensitive,” this video will help you see the shared core and the surface differences. You'll leave with clear red flags and language to describe which type you're dealing with and why both can be equally damaging.Book a Coaching Session Here - https://link.me/mentalhealness
Jack Osbourne grew up with cameras in the house. The Osbourne's made his family the biggest thing on television, and he was earning seven figures by 15. He got sober at 17 and has held that line for over two decades. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at 26. Since then he's built his own lane — adventure television, paranormal investigation, two podcasts, and a purple belt in jiu-jitsu. Last July, his father played the biggest farewell show in rock history. Seventeen days later, Ozzy was gone. This conversation carries weight and goes sideways in equal measure. Making serious money as a kid and learning the hard way that the people hired to protect it don't always deserve the trust. Grieving a parent while untangling the business that comes with a famous last name. The final concert — a living wake where his dad got to say goodbye on his own terms — and the week at home together afterward. Then the throttle opens: the UFC card on the White House South Lawn, a month in the Australian jungle on 500 calories a day, ghost stories he can't explain, the Nazca mummies, a plan to buy a decommissioned aircraft carrier, and bringing OzFest back.

Trying to explain your feelings to a narcissist is like trying to explain color to someone who refuses to open their eyes, most of them don't respect your emotions or your boundaries, they respect consequences. In this video, I break down three things that could actually make a narcissist think twice: the no‑explanation boundary, the immediate if/then consequence, and emotional indifference when they test your limits. As a clinically diagnosed, self‑aware narcissist, I show you how long explanations become a roadmap to argue with you, why an unenforced boundary is just a speed bump, and how removing emotional reactions turns you into a “high‑cost, low‑reward” target. If you're tired of setting boundaries that get ignored, this video will give you language, leverage, and practical examples to help you hold the line safely.

"Our disease does not have to be the driver in terms of what is controlling how we feel and ultimately how we function." - Dr. Amy Behimer Dr. Amy Beheimer is a pharmacist-turned board-certified health and wellness coach, specializing in helping individuals change habits that have been challenging to change. She is the host of the "Autoimmune Health Secrets" podcast and the founder of Club Habit Hub, where she leverages her scientific background and coaching strategies to support those with autoimmune conditions. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, Dr. Beheimer provides actionable strategies and insights for improving health post-diagnosis through lifestyle and habit modifications. Episode Summary: In this enlightening episode of "Oh My Health...There is Hope," host Jana Short speaks with Dr. Amy Beheimer about shifting from a pharmacist to a health and wellness coach to inspire and facilitate lasting change in habits. Dr. Beheimer shares her personal journey with multiple sclerosis and how it set her on a path to help others transform their lives. This episode dives deep into holistic approaches to manage autoimmune conditions, focusing on lifestyle adaptations as a path to better health outcomes. Dr. Beheimer introduces listeners to her framework, the Habit Hub for Autoimmune Health, which includes six key areas crucial for personal well-being: mindset, food, movement, rest, connection, and good stress. They discuss the overwhelming nature of health information and emphasize starting small to achieve significant health transformations. Through her Club Habit Hub, Dr. Beheimer offers ongoing support and structured ways to implement lifestyle changes. The discussion also challenges the conventional medication-focused approach to health, promoting a balanced integration of medical science and lifestyle changes for optimal well-being. Key Takeaways: Holistic Health Management: Understanding the six key areas—mindset, food, movement, rest, connection, and good stress—is crucial for managing autoimmune health. Start Small for Big Changes: Trust in small, consistent habits to create lasting change, using strategies like visualization and setting tiny goals. Balance Medication and Lifestyle: Utilize both medical treatments and lifestyle changes, looking for synergy rather than opposition between the two approaches. Importance of Mindset: Cultivating a positive mindset can enhance your ability to manage your health; it is viewed not as an innate trait, but as a skill that can be developed. Customized Support: Dr. Beheimer speaks to the importance of individualized strategies and how her Club Habit Hub provides ongoing coaching and community support.
