What began as dedicated therapy evolved into an undeniable bond, culminating in their decision to adopt Penny. Today, Penny is a thriving, vibrant child, a testament to their love and commitment.   Jamie's story beautifully illustrates how a therapist's dedication can extend far beyond clinical care, blossoming into the creation of a cherished family.

Today, Emily Kircher-Morris and Meredith Polsky look into the complexities of selective mutism, exploring its definitions, the importance of language in understanding it, and the personal experiences that led Meredith to specialize in this area. They discuss the myths surrounding selective mutism, and its manifestation as an anxiety disorder rather than a choice or a form of shyness. Meredith shares her journey as a parent of children with selective mutism and the challenges she faced in finding appropriate treatment, ultimately leading her to become a clinician herself. They explore the challenges of diagnosis, and provide effective therapeutic techniques. This is a must-listen for adults supporting children with selective mutism. TAKEAWAYS Selective mutism is often misunderstood as a choice. Language matters in discussing selective mutism. The term 'situational mutism' is gaining popularity. Parents play a crucial role in treatment. Selective mutism is an anxiety disorder, not shyness. Pushing children to speak can increase anxiety. There is a lack of awareness among clinicians about selective mutism. Selective mutism can complicate the diagnosis of autism. Children with selective mutism may not exhibit typical anxiety responses. Effective communication strategies are crucial for children with selective mutism.

Physician and psychologist Heidi Feldman is a pioneer in the field of developmental behavioral pediatrics who says that the world's understanding of childhood disability is changing and so too are the ways we approach it. Where once institutionalization was common, today we find integrative, family-centered approaches, charting a more humane, hopeful path forward. For example, for children born prematurely with increased likelihood of disability, increasing skin-to-skin contact – what is called  “kangaroo care” – can literally reshape that child's brain development, she tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

Early Detection and Early Intervention - where are we now (and what does the future hold)?The last time we had Alicia on the pod, we spoke about the Cochrane Review she led titled “Early developmental intervention programmes provided post hospital discharge to prevent motor and cognitive impairment in preterm infants” which was published in 2024. In this week's episode, we thought we'd ask Alicia about the state of early intervention right now and what the provision of therapy looks like within our current context of early detection and early intervention for children with cerebral palsy.There have been some rather significant developments in the early detection and early intervention space over the past 20 years. From the rapid technological advances to the value of co-design and involvement of people with lived experience, we now have some impressive evidence to guide our clinical pathways. However, what is very clear now is the vital importance of implementation. The industry has generated substantial knowledge that now needs to be implemented into practice with one particularly important aspect that we must include - family involvement and well-being. Alicia speaks ever so passionately about our role as therapists and I cannot help but to feel even more compelled to ensure that the family is at the centre of everything we do. It is exciting to know that we have the evidence now, so it's time to put it into practice and it can start in your very next session.https://findanexpert.unimelb.edu.au/profile/27041-alicia-spittle

If your hair is thinning, shedding, or simply not what it used to be—and nothing seems to work—this episode is for you. Because what if the story you've been told about balding… is wrong? For decades, hair loss has felt like fate: genetic, inevitable, untouchable. But science is catching up to something deeper—something root-level. What if the real culprit behind age-related hair loss is cellular dysfunction? And what if we could change that? In this episode, Dave Asprey uncovers the cellular biology of hair thinning with longevity researcher Carolina Reis Oliveira. You'll learn how senescent cells (aka zombie cells) hijack your scalp, disrupt follicle function, and silently accelerate hair loss—and how a breakthrough peptide might stop it cold. Carolina reveals brand-new clinical research on OS-01, a molecule shown to increase hair density by 40% in just 6 months. But this isn't a product pitch—it's a paradigm shift. Together, they explore the hidden drivers of hair aging, from hormone shifts and stress cascades to microbiome imbalances and inflammation, plus the real science behind what can actually regrow hair. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • How “zombie cells” (senescent cells) sabotage your hair from the inside out • The science behind the OS-01 peptide and how it reverses visible hair thinning • Why thinning hair isn't just genetic—and what else is driving it • How stress, hormones, and aging collide to trigger follicle dysfunction • What your scalp microbiome has to do with regrowth and hair density • How to stack red light, peptides, and topicals for real, measurable results ***Visit oneskin.co/DAVE and use code DAVE for and additional 15% off.*** Resources: • Dave Asprey's New Book - Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/ • OneSkin Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/oneskin.co/ • OneSkin Website: https://www.oneskin.co/ • 2025 Biohacking Conference: https://biohackingconference.com/2025 • Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com • Dave Asprey's Website: https://daveasprey.com • Dave Asprey's Linktree: https://linktr.ee/daveasprey • Upgrade Collective – Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live: https://www.ourupgradecollective.com • Own an Upgrade Labs: https://ownanupgradelabs.com • Upgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com • 40 Years of Zen – Neurofeedback Training for Advanced Cognitive Enhancement: https://40yearsofzen.com Timestamps: • 00:00 — Trailer • 01:52 — Intro • 02:59 — Is Aging Optional for Your Scalp? • 04:03 — Understanding Scalp and Hair Aging • 05:06 — The Role of Senescent Cells in Hair Loss • 07:25 — Hormonal Influences on Hair Health • 16:10 — Peptide Solutions for Hair Thinning • 18:05 — Clinical Studies and Results • 20:29 — Future of Hair Loss Treatments • 30:16 — Nutritional and Lifestyle Factors • 36:40 — Addressing Senescent Cells and Hair Growth • 37:29 — Minoxidil: Oral vs. Topical Use • 39:32 — Personal Experience with Hair Products • 40:25 — Combining Therapies for Hair Growth • 46:06 — Nutritional Factors in Hair Health • 52:20 — Sun Exposure and Hair Health • 56:40 — Coffee and Hair Growth • 01:00:01 — Launching the New Hair Product See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Revolutionizing Children's Dental Health: Early Intervention and Nasal Breathing with Dr. Ben Miraglia

Oh, My Health...There Is Hope!

"Mouth breathing is putting bad gasoline into a high-performance race car." - Dr. Ben Miraglia Dr. Ben Miraglia is a renowned dentist with over three decades of experience since graduating from SUNY at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine in 1993. He serves as the Chief Clinical Officer at Airway Health Solutions and Toothpillow, both organizations dedicated to improving dental and airway health. Dr. Miraglia is also on the Board of Directors of the American Academy of Physiological Medicine and Dentistry. He is a key player in transformative dental treatments focusing on physiological growth and airway success without the extraction of teeth. Episode Summary: In this enlightening episode of "Oh, My Health... There Is Hope," host Jana Short sits down with Dr. Ben Miraglia, a trailblazer in the field of dentistry focusing on airway health and pediatric orthodontics without extraction. Dr. Miraglia narrates his journey from being a traditional dentist to discovering expansive orthodontic solutions that avoid tooth extraction and promote better health outcomes. His story of hope is packed with professional insights that will appeal to parents seeking healthier alternatives for children's dental care. Dr. Miraglia's innovative approach advocates early intervention in dental growth, starting as young as three years old, to prevent common issues associated with traditional methods like extracting teeth for orthodontic purposes. Highlighting the profound connection between correct nasal breathing, jaw development, and overall health, this episode offers invaluable information for parents aiming for holistic health solutions for their children. With the development of Toothpillow, Dr. Miraglia extends his expertise globally, providing remote dental care that focuses on growth and natural development rather than immediate corrective remedies. Key Takeaways: Early Intervention: Begin addressing dental development as early as age 3 to promote proper jaw growth and prevent long-term orthodontic issues. Avoid Tooth Extraction: Tooth extraction can lead to bone loss and collapse. Focus instead on techniques that preserve natural tooth structure. Nasal Breathing and Oral Health: Proper nasal breathing is vital for physical health; mouth breathing can lead to various health issues in children. Remote Access to Care: Toothpillow.com provides access to remote assessments and care for children, bridging gaps where local resources may be limited. Educational Resources for Parents: Parents are encouraged to research and choose airway-focused dental professionals who support growth-based orthodontics.

Hey humans, on this episode, I talk with Kristen Genovese, CEO of Not My Kid, as part one of a two-part series discussing the critical intersection of mental health, the fentanyl crisis, and its impact on children and families. Kristen shares her extensive background in behavioral health and her journey to Not My Kid, emphasizing the organization's focus on prevention and early intervention. I am on the board of Not My Kid, and as those of you who know my background, this is a critical area of personal and professional focus for me, too. We discuss the evolving nature of the opioid crisis and the importance of adapting support systems to meet the changing needs of families. Our conversation gets into the challenges of addressing substance use and mental health issues, particularly in the context of generational trauma and the stigma surrounding these struggles.  We talk in specific about connecting these resources both within communities and workplaces to go beyond conventional workplace resources like Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), which often fall short in providing adequate support. We also talk about "Not My Kid" celebrating its 25th anniversary and focusing on expanding its reach and impact in the next 25 years. They are developing a full continuum of care model that includes prevention, intervention, and treatment, as well as family navigation services. The organization is also adapting its approach to engage with parents and children in the digital age as well. Again, this is part one of two, and the next episode will further explore the mental health crisis and actionable steps for parents, grandparents, and employers to support children.

The EVOLVED trial investigated whether early aortic valve intervention could improve outcomes in asymptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis and myocardial fibrosis. The randomized, multicenter study of 224 patients found no significant difference in all-cause mortality or unplanned aortic stenosis-related hospitalizations between early intervention and guideline-directed conservative management. However, early intervention was associated with lower rates of NYHA class II-IV symptoms and fewer unplanned hospitalizations. The trial highlights the potential symptomatic benefits of early intervention but underscores the need for further research to assess long-term outcomes.

“Scaffolding” has become a buzzword when it comes to helping kids become more independent with academic and functional tasks, but it's only useful if people know what it means. Watching students or your own children struggle to transition or complete daily tasks can be uncomfortable for both the adults and children. As a result, it can be easy to get pulled in to a situation where kids become prompt-dependent. That's why I invited Rebecca Robbins to De Facto Leaders to talk about how to use declarative statements and strategic pausing to increase independence. Rebecca Robbins is a speech language pathologist who has spent the bulk of her career helping children, young adults, and families impacted by autism. She has worked in various settings over the course of her career including a private school for children with autism, Early Intervention & Preschool agency work, as well as a public school.

Today, we're diving into empowering parents and the magic of early intervention through teletherapy with Glory Lichon, founder of Glow Bright Therapy. Glory's journey started in school-based therapy, but like many SLPs, she faced burnout. That experience led her to create a teletherapy practice focused on early intervention, where parent involvement takes center stage.Without the barrier of school-based settings, early intervention teletherapy actively involves parents, guiding them through strategies they can use in daily routines and their child's natural environment. From evaluations to progress checks, families and therapists work together on a HIPAA-compliant Zoom platform, making it simple and secure. Each session kicks off by understanding the family's recent experiences and observing the child in their environment, looking for natural opportunities to support communication and learning.Glory's approach is all about letting the child lead—she believes communication isn't just about talking and prompting. She follows the “Observe, Wait, Listen” strategy, which allows kids to explore at their own pace, focusing on authentic engagement rather than prompting. She also shares practical, easy tips parents can try at home, like using bath time to practice verbal routines (“wash, wash, wash your hair...”) or learning body parts during soaping up.Check out Glow Bright Therapy on Instagram or visit their website to learn more!#autism #speectherapyWhat's Inside:Proving teletherapy to support and empower parents.What does child-led, natural environment teletherapy look like?Habit stacking communication opportunities throughout meaningful routines.Mentioned In This Episode:Glow Bright Therapyglowbrighttherapy (@glowbright_therapy) on InstagramJoin us in the ABA SPEECH Connection MembershipRose Griffin (@abaspeechbyrose) on Instagram
