Marijuana: The Gateway Drug?You've heard the line — “Marijuana is a gateway drug.” But is it really?In this episode of Cannabis School, Brandon & Jesse unpack where this idea came from, what the actual science says, and why the myth still sticks around. We explore the U.S. history behind the stigma, the difference between correlation and causation, and what international data reveals about cannabis and other substances.We also break down:How cannabis actually affects the brain compared to other drugsWhy the “gateway” label might be more about trauma and access than cannabis itselfWhat the data says about cannabis users and progression to harder substancesWhy prohibition may be the real risk factorHow cannabis might actually help people move away from more dangerous substancesAt the end of the day, this plant might not be the villain it's been made out to be.Listen and decide for yourself.Website: www.CannabisSchool.orgInstagram: @cannabisschoolpodcastTikTok: @cannabisschool

Episode 210ABOUT THE EPISODE:When Dr. Robert Schwebel was approached by a local treatment agency about developing a drug program for adolescents, he was not interested. He decided to meet with the agency about the proposal, but also to share hard truths that he thought would encourage them to find someone else: Don't promise drug free kids overnight. Help them learn to make good decisions rather than telling them what to do. Incorporate life counseling. Rather than rejecting him, the program agreed to Robert's suggestions and hired him.Robert hoped to find and tweak an existing treatment program that incorporated these principles, but couldn't find one. In the 1990s, residential treatment centers were cash cows, with professionals often advising parents to place their kids in inpatient treatment at the first sign of experimentation. He describes most of those programs as "watered down 12-Step programs," demanding instant and complete abstinence - which he believed was unrealistic for most adolescents. So he started from scratch. The result was the widely adopted Seven Challenges Program.One of the many programs that have adopted this adolescent-specific model is Elements Wilderness, and Lynn Smith, co-founder, and primary therapist there joins me and Robert to share the provider experience with the Seven Challenges model. We cover:How The Seven Challenges builds a climate of mutual respect and honest discussionWhy practitioners don't insist on drug abstinence when adolescents are engaged in the challengesThe power of asking kids what they like about drugsWhy "come back when you hit rock bottom" is the wrong approachEPISODE RESOURCES:The Seven Challenges websiteElements Wilderness websiteThis podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram: @hopestreamcommunityDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

The news is out and the headlines are clear - drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy DO help people lose weight and they have become "the next big thing" for weight loss.But, questions remain: How do they work? What long-term impacts will these have on health? Are they really helping the underlying cause of obesity and disease? Is it enough just to lose the weight? Will these drugs actually improve our health in the same way that a whole food plant-based diet can?Rip welcomes evolutionary psychologist, Dr. Doug Lisle, back to the podcast to discuss his thoughts on these new weight loss drugs and why they may or may not be a panacea for improved health. They discuss:The correlation between obesity and disease processesThe underlying cause of obesityPros and Cons of weight loss drugsWhy people struggle to change their behavior even when they know betterThe importance of making your environment look like your goalsListener Question: recovering from medical cannabis withdrawalListener Question: Can a whole food plant-based diet cure schizophrenia?Dr. Doug's thoughts on screen time and social media influenceVisit PLANTSTRONG Foods and stock up on all of our latest products:https://plantstrongfoods.com/ Join our PLANTSTRONG Sedona Retreat - October 9-14, 2023:https://plantstrongfoods.com/pages/2023-sedona-retreat Purchase Tickets to our 12th Annual Plant-Stock - September 22-24, 2023https://plantstrongfoods.com/pages/plant-stock-landing-page-2023 Follow PLANTSTRONG on Facebook for tips, recipes, and the chance to see Rip live each weekhttps://www.facebook.com/GoPlantstrong PLANTSTRONG Instagram - Check us out and share your favorite PLANTSTRONG products and why you love it!

Laurie Dupar has answers!At least once per week I get an email or a post in my membership about medications. Often the questions are posted because ADHD adults are simply not able to get the information they need for themselves and their families. Confusion abounds and people turn to unreliable sources of information - like Facebook groups and other social media.So I asked Laurie, an ADHD coach, and experienced psychiatric nurse practitioner, to sit down with me and discuss some of the questions I hear most frequently. I will produce a written post about this in the future. This is a loooong one. But well worth the listen!We discussed:The lack of ADHD information available to prescribers during their trainingCommon misunderstandings about ADHD in both physicians and pharmacistsThe lack of communication between prescribers and patientsThe real deal on long-term effects, normal side effects, and imagined side effectsStimulants v. non-stimulants, and the development of medicationsHow stimulants work, and how non-stimulants workThe difference between prescription medications and street drugsWhy medications need to be changed/adjusted on an ongoing basis throughout the lifespanPregnancy, breast feeding, menopause and the role of estrogen in ADHDLaurie's iACT center training programLaurie's 5-week Medication CourseSupport the show (https://the-adhd-enclave.mn.co)

Episode 48 with Tess Begg is perhaps one of my favourite conversations to date. Tess is in her early 20's and isn't afraid to tell it how it is. Her life so far has been anything but rosy and I love the fact she owns these hardships and openly talks about how they led her to where she is now. In this episode Tess speaks candidly about how she navigated her way through through her teenage years and despite having instability at home and getting caught up in the wrong social circles was able to seperate her true values & beliefs from those 'handed' to use by society.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Specifically we covered:Where Tess grew upWhat family life was like and her childhood dietWhat her teenage and high school years were likeHanging out in the wrong crowdsSmoking and drugsWhy she transitioned to a vegan dietWhat her vegan diet was like initially and how it has changedBlood test resultsSupplements with some specifics around Iron, B12 and IodineWhy Tess creates content for social mediaHow long it takes her to create contentGenerating an income from social mediaHer thoughts on separating social media from her own personal life and 'offline time'Tess' vegan treat businessWhat Tess would like to do in the future⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀If you haven't connected with Tess you can find her on Instagram and You Tube - her posts are sure to provide you with further inspiration for the plant based meals you create at home!Resources:Want to know more about supplement and blood tests?
