Hypercortisolism is often misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or missed entirely—and for many people, that means years of frustration with difficult-to-control diabetes, high blood pressure, fatigue, and other unexplained symptoms. In this episode, Dr. Steve Edelman sits down with Phil, a military veteran, and his wife Cherese to share their journey through years of unanswered questions before finally uncovering hypercortisolism as the underlying cause. Together, they highlight the warning signs, the challenges of getting diagnosed, and the relief that comes with the right treatment.You'll learn why hypercortisolism is more common than most people realize, how it can hide behind type 2 diabetes, and what tests and treatments can make a life-changing difference:Why hypercortisolism is so often overlooked: Symptoms overlap with diabetes, stress, and other common health issues.Phil's story of resilience: From managing diabetes with multiple medications to discovering hypercortisolism as the root cause.The partner's perspective: How Cherese noticed the warning signs and pushed for further testing.The Catalyst Study: Research shows that up to 1 in 4 people with hard-to-control type 2 diabetes may have hypercortisolism.Diagnosis explained: The 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test and why it matters.Treatment and transformation: How targeted therapies improved Phil's blood sugars, energy, sleep, and overall quality of life.Key takeaways: Be your own best advocate—if your numbers don't add up, it's worth asking why.Important Links:- Corcept's patient hypercortisolism awareness campaign- Corcept's patient hypercortisolism disease education website ★ Support this podcast ★

As Donald Trump gives oxygen to unproven theories about what might be behind a recent rise in autism cases, experts repeatedly point to the changing nature of how autism is diagnosed and viewed.A key moment in the history of autism diagnosis was the publication in 1994 of a new version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. It's a reference book of psychiatric conditions and how to diagnose them, used by psychiatrists and psychologists around the world. In this episode, Andrew Whitehouse, a professor of autism research at the University of Western Australia, explains why this shift in autism diagnosis happened in the 1990s, what impact it had, and what it's meant for the support autistic people get.

What if we could detect Alzheimer's disease before the first memory fades? In this powerful episode of Med Tech Gurus, Dr. Maria-Magdalena Patru, MD, PhD—who leads the neurology medical team at Roche Diagnostics US—explains how early diagnosis is being radically transformed through CSF and blood-based biomarker innovations. With Alzheimer's affecting over 7 million Americans, Dr. Patru outlines how new guidelines, improved reimbursement, and diagnostic advances are helping clinicians identify the disease earlier—when treatments can still preserve cognition. She also shares how her personal connection to Alzheimer's drives her mission and offers advice to innovators navigating regulatory and clinical pathways.

On this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck unpacks the latest government shutdown and the political brinkmanship that created it. He explores how shutdowns—once unthinkable—have become a partisan weapon, wasting money while allowing leaders like Donald Trump to punish opponents and play to their base. With Democrats at risk of shouldering equal or greater blame, Chuck asks whether the public is even paying attention, and what role figures like Russ Vought could play in reshaping government permanently. Beyond the shutdown, the conversation turns to the bigger picture: why voters never saw Trump as an aberration, why 2020 wasn't a full repudiation of 2016, and what Democrats must do to win back Trump voters in 2028. From Harris's struggle to differentiate herself from Biden to Clinton's careful dance with Reagan's legacy, Chuck argues that Democrats may need to admit Trump identified real problems—even as his solutions and behavior, especially with military leaders, remain deeply troubling.Then, Chuck is joined by NewsNation host Leland Vittert, who opens up about his personal journey growing up on the autism spectrum, the struggles his family faced, and the lessons that shaped his outlook on life and journalism. From being misunderstood in school and learning to navigate social cues, to the pivotal role his mother played in holding the family together, Vittert reflects on why he chose to go public with his story and how his experiences inform his new book—a parenting guide told from the child's perspective. He also explores how autism has served as both a challenge and, at times, a superpower in his career and personal life.The conversation widens to America's media landscape, where Vittert argues for a “radical center” approach and a journalism that calls balls and strikes on both sides rather than chasing flashy headlines. He stresses the importance of reviving local news, curating coverage around what matters most, and confronting the biases not only in how stories are told, but in which stories get told at all. This candid discussion is part memoir, part media critique, and a call for greater honesty—both in parenting and in public life.Finally, Chuck presents his ToddCast Top 5 senate races most likely to flip parties, answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment, and recaps a frustrating night at the Cowboys/Packers game. Got injured in an accident?

This candid discussion is part memoir, part media critique, and a call for greater honesty—both in parenting and in public life.Got injured in an accident?

In this episode of The Curious Realm, host Christopher Jordan welcomes demonologist and researcher Nathaniel Gillis to discuss his groundbreaking work in the field of “Necronetics”. Through his studies, Nathaniel has uncovered a nefarious technology used by ill acting entities, since the dawn of man, utilizing a dark sigil-based magic, soul exchanges, and other Necromantic means to embody themselves within a human being so that they may progenerate their species across time into the modern day. In the second part of the episode, we welcome Dr John Hall to discuss the diagnosis of “Targeted Individuals”. Since the findings of a diagnosis Havana Syndrome and the passing of relief for those suffering from it, there have been many things which have vindicated those, who for decades now, have complained of similar symptomologies who call themselves Target Individuals. We discuss the possible technologies used to cause these issues in people, as well as ways to mitigate symptomology and the new protocols within the directives for military family doctors which allow for a Havana Syndrome type diagnosis. Could this help lead to broader diagnosis of these symptoms within the general medical community?!  Join the Curious Realm as we delve into the topics of Necronetics with Nathaniel Gillis and diagnosis of targeted individuals with Dr John Hall.

Today I'm talking with writer and memoirist Nefertiti Austin about her journey parenting a neurodivergent child and the many realizations that come with it, which she writes about in her new book, She's Just Spirited: Parenting a Neurodivergent Child and the Diagnosis That Changes Everything, continues that deeply honest exploration, this time through the lens of raising a differently wired child. In our conversation, Nefertiti shares the challenges and gifts of navigating labels, the role of educators in her family's story, and the ways adoption has shaped her parenting experience. We also talk about what it means to adapt as parents—to let go of old visions and dream new dreams that embrace our children's unique paths.   About Nefertiti Austin Nefertiti Austin is a writer and memoirist. She wrote about the erasure of diverse voices in motherhood in the critically acclaimed Motherhood So White: A Memoir of Race, Gender and Parenting in America (2019) and her work has appeared in the New York Times, Washington Post, Huffington Post, The Nation, Romper, Parents Magazine, and many other publications. She was the subject of an article on race and adoption in The Atlantic and appeared on numerous shows, podcasts, and radio programs, including The Today Show and multiple NPR outlets.

Nefertiti is the proud adoptive mother of two children and lives in Los Angeles. Things you'll learn from this episode  How Nefertiti's parenting journey began through adoption and was reshaped by raising a neurodivergent child Why using positive terms like “spirited” instead of negative labels protects children's sense of self, especially for children of color How adoption adds unique layers of complexity to parenting neurodivergent kids and challenges assumptions about nurture Why seeking assessments requires patience, persistence, and deep understanding from both parents and educators How parents can move toward acceptance by dreaming new dreams for their children while navigating overwhelm and trial and error Why bridging the gap between parents and educators is key to creating supportive environments for neurodivergent kids Resources mentioned Nefertiti Austin's website She's Just Spirited: Parenting a Neurodivergent Child and the Diagnosis That Changes Everything by Nefertiti Austin Motherhood So White: A Memoir of Race, Gender and Parenting in America by Nefertiti Austin Nefertiti on Instagram Nefertiti on Facebook Learn more about your ad choices.

On this now two year anniversary, I felt that this deserved a replay! This is an episode that is an enormous part of why I've changed the brand of the podcast to encompass the broader human experience. My daughter, Jocelyn, is my very special guest today. She talks about her leukemia diagnosis over two years ago, and the battle that would take up all of 2023, and change the way she has to look at her health for the rest of her life. Hearing this story from her provides so much joy for who she is as a woman, how she's grown, and my hope is that you'll hear the same message.  She shares some of the early indicators that were thought to be a bad case of the flu, the mysterious bruises she got, and when she checked in to Phoenix Children's Hospital. She talks about shaving her head, the incredible people that stepped up for her when she was down, and the quirky things that people say and do - when they don't know what to say or do! The lesson and ongoing message in this podcast for all of us is, I believe, that through struggle and adversity comes strength. I'm so proud of my daughter - and the lessons I believe are important for anyone struggling.  I hope that you find this episode to be uplifting and motivating for your own human experience. Thank you so much for listening! Stacie More episodes at StacieBaird.com.

What happens when a lifetime of struggle suddenly makes sense at age 40?In this episode, I sit down with Matt - the first male ADHDer on the podcast - to talk about his late ADHD diagnosis and the powerful ways he's turned it into "his edge". From international indoor cricket to gamifying everyday life, Matt shares openly about the highs and lows of navigating ADHD.We dive into:How sport both masked and supported his ADHD for decadesThe moment of diagnosis that connected all the dotsWhy he views ADHD as his advantage and how he gamifies life to stay engagedThe grief, growth and self-discovery that followed his diagnosisParenting a child with ADHD and doing things differently with newfound awarenessThe role of curiosity, presence, and vulnerability in living a better lifeABOUT MATT: Matt Henderson is a health and performance coach who has never fit the mould - and that's exactly his edge. Once branded the troublemaker who pushed back against authority, Matt has turned that same wiring into a strength. Today He helps high-achieving professionals unlock energy, resilience, and clarity by reframing life not as a grind, but as a game worth playing.Through Fit Club, his coaching work, and challenges like Project 50, Matt shows how to build “characters” instead of chasing discipline, learn to step into the contest instead of avoiding stress, and design rules that create freedom instead of punishment. From the outside, it looks like discipline; in reality, it's play. And that shift - seeing life as a game - has become his way of thriving in business, sport and family life.Connect with Matt: Website: https://www.fitclub.co.nz/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefitclubproject/ Email: MATT@FITCLUB.CO.NZFor more support from Navigating Adult ADHD visit: www.navigatingadultadhd.com/

Ever Googled your symptoms only to fall down a rabbit hole of doom and gloom? You're not alone. When Asmaa was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2022, she desperately searched for someone who could tell her life wasn't over—someone who looked like her, talked like her, had a career, was getting married, but was 10 years ahead in their journey who could say, "Don't worry, you'll be fine." Instead, she found fear, anger, and non-acceptance online that affected her mental health more than the disease itself.This pivotal moment became the spark for Lori Health, a groundbreaking platform connecting chronically ill patients with peer wisdom and evidence-based hacks. As Asmaa shares her journey from diagnosis to building the world's largest library of verified habits for chronic illness, we explore the profound gap in healthcare that leaves newly diagnosed patients feeling adrift and alone. With 500 million people worldwide living with autoimmune conditions—one in ten people in the UK—this isn't a small problem.What sets this conversation apart is Asmaa's remarkable perspective on illness as opportunity. After leaving her high-profile career in luxury brands, moving countries, and dedicating herself to healing, she achieved a reduction in her MS lesions. Rather than keeping her discoveries to herself, she built a platform making this wisdom accessible to everyone—regardless of their ability to take time off work or relocate. Through Lori Health and the newly launched Lori Peers video matching service, she's creating the resource she needed most in her darkest hour: stories of hope.Whether you're navigating a new diagnosis or supporting someone who is, this episode illuminates how community wisdom can transform the chronic illness experience from isolation to empowerment. As Asmaa beautifully puts it: "So many people would not change a thing... It's completely unrelated from how bad you are physically. It's all here—you decide how things are going to unfold."https://www.instagram.com/wearelori?igsh=MXg3ZTl0MDR1aGV5Mg==Send us a text Delivering Happy Mail around the world!We have sent thousands of cards to isolated illness warriors, facilitated hundreds of pen pal relationships, and reached countless family members, caregivers, and medical professionals with messages of hope and acknowledgment.Join our mission to send 100,000 cards of support to patients with long-term illnesses.About our organization | Cards2warriors Keep your spoons close and support system closer.Support the showSupport:https://rarepatientvoice.com/Myspooniesisters/https://www.etsy.com/shop/MySpoonieSistershttps://www.graceandable.com/?bg_ref=980:nzTyG6c9zK (Use code GAJen10) Website: https://myspooniesisters.com/ Discount Codes: GIANT Microbes | Gag Gifts, Teacher Gifts, Doctor Gifts, Gifts for Girlfriends and Boyfriends code SPOONIE20 for 20% off

In this episode Rosie Moss speaks with Julie Farrin, who lost her husband Andy to glioblastoma, an aggressive and fast moving brain cancer.Julie shares the story of meeting Andy, falling for his quiet kindness, and marrying him just weeks before their world was turned upside down. She talks about the first seizure that led to his diagnosis, the challenges of treatment during lockdown, and the painful reality of watching his words, independence and dignity slip away.Together we explore what it meant to become a full time carer so early in marriage, the mix of exhaustion and dark humour that carried her through, and the heartbreak of hospice and widowhood. Julie also reflects on life after Andy, returning to work too soon, panic attacks, health struggles of her own, and the slow work of building a life without him.She is honest about the isolation, the decisions she never thought she would face, and the importance of keeping Andy's memory alive. As Julie puts it, “We are the gatekeepers, the memory keepers.”We talk about:• Julie and Andy's love story and the early signs of glioblastoma• The impact of lockdown on treatment and caregiving• Watching decline up close and making end of life decisions• The burden of being the only caregiver and managing others' denial• Choosing not to pursue motherhood under impossible circumstances• Returning to work, health struggles and the ongoing reality of grief• Why storytelling matters and how memory keeping keeps loved ones close

While navigating Australia’s mental health system to deal with his personal assessment and ongoing care, entrepreneur Zac Altman felt frustrated and thought, quite simply, there must be a better way to help the huge number of adults with ADHD get the proper care and support they need. To help solve what he saw as a very large unmet demand problem, Zac created and built the start-up Kantoko, a telehealth service offering online assessments and ongoing care for adults with ADHD, but using an unusual business model – subscription services. Kantoko has been operational since early 2024, with patients accessing Kantoko’s team of experienced ADHD psychiatrists and GPs focusing on mental health.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this Think Thursday episode, Molly explores ADHD through the lens of the brain's energy economy. Drawing from personal experience and neuroscience, she explains why ADHD brains spend fuel differently than neurotypical brains, why tasks can feel either draining or energizing, and how understanding this difference can replace frustration with compassion.Listeners will learn how differences in dopamine and norepinephrine signaling impact executive function and reward systems, why ADHD increases vulnerability to addiction, and which practical strategies can help conserve and redirect energy for greater clarity and peace.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The difference between neurotypical and neurodivergent brainsWhy the brain is such an energy hog, and how ADHD changes the budgetHow dopamine and norepinephrine signaling affect motivation and regulation in ADHDWhy people with ADHD are more vulnerable to alcohol addictionSix practical strategies for conserving and redirecting ADHD brain energyKey Quote“ADHD isn't laziness or lack of willpower.

Parkinson's disease is the fastest-growing neurological condition in the world—and according to Dr. Ray Dorsey, it doesn't have to be this way. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Dorsey, a leading neurologist, Parkinson's researcher, and tireless advocate for rethinking chronic illness. Together, we unpack why the rates of Parkinson's have doubled in the last 25 years and explore a bold claim: Parkinson's is largely a manmade and preventable disease.Dr. Dorsey's message is urgent yet hopeful: prevention is possible, but it requires awareness, advocacy, and collective action. Dr. Ray Dorsey is a neurologist and one of the world's foremost voices in Parkinson's disease research and care. With deep clinical expertise and a passion for health care innovation, he is reshaping how we understand and address chronic illness. His parents were both psychiatrists, and he knew from first grade that he wanted to become a doctor. Today, he combines that lifelong love of learning with a mission to prevent Parkinson's and improve the lives of millions worldwide. ***  Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.

Welcome to Season 5 of Together in Literacy! We're thrilled to be back and thank you for joining us. In this episode we're kicking off our new season by setting the scene for the overarching topic that will inform our conversations: What do students with dyslexia really need? The answer may sound familiar: more than just phonics! Our students need a comprehensive approach that sees the whole learner. We'll talk about this in-depth this season, with topics like going beyond explicit phonics, decoding, executive function, layered and responsive instruction, metacognition, and self-advocacy strategies.

Nebraska drops another Big Ten opener, 30–27 to Michigan, and Travis Justice & Dr. Rob Zatechka break down why the score felt closer than the game. From seven sacks and goal-line woes to Michigan's clear edge in speed and physicality, the guys zero in on the offensive tackles, short-yardage issues, and three explosive TD runs allowed. They also defend Dylan Raiola's day (it wasn't on the QB) and compare him to Bryce Underwood, separating arm talent, accuracy, and true dual-threat juice. With a bye week on deck, they outline what can actually be fixed now (OL personnel/scheme tweaks, tackling fits, protection help) and what's a longer project. Then it's a tour around college football: Indiana surges under Curt Cignetti, Wisconsin spirals (is Luke Fickell on the clock?), Florida's brutal slate puts Billy Napier in peril, and why monster buyouts are warping the coaching carousel.
