The India Business Council isn't surprised to see the Free Trade Agreement have an impact already, before coming into force. New export numbers show apples are in high demand – volumes jumping 63% on the 2024 season when negotiations began. Last month, Matariki Forests sent its first shipment of logs from Bluff to India since 2020. Council Chair Edwin Paul told Ryan Bridge there's an increase in general business confidence. He says there's also a real interest in the likes of mean, wood, honey, and technology. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dementia doesn't show up with a warning label, and it definitely doesn't erase the person sitting right in front of you. We're back in Detroit to hear directly from people living with dementia and the care partners walking beside them and the honesty is refreshing, specific, and sometimes even funny in the middle of the hard stuff.First, we talk with Dick and John (with Gerry bringing the real talk as a spouse and support system) about what made them finally say, “Something isn't quite right.” They describe early signs like repeating themselves, word-finding issues, speech clarity problems, and the tension those changes can create at home. Then we dig into what happened after diagnosis: the relief of naming the problem, the power of telling family instead of keeping secrets, and how early testing can open doors to planning and medical options.We also get into Alzheimer's treatment realities, including infusion therapy and what it feels like to pursue treatment with a trusted care team. Just as important, we unpack why some people with dementia symptoms won't qualify for Alzheimer's infusions if the biomarkers aren't there, and what it's like to keep searching for answers. Then members of the National Council of Dementia Minds join virtually to share a wider view: executive function decline at work, REM sleep behavior disorder, getting lost close to home, misdiagnoses, and the exhausting maze of specialists and tests.You'll leave with practical strategies that actually help: whiteboards, calendars, lists, timers, note-taking, safety planning around driving, and staying social so life stays bigger than the diagnosis. If this conversation helps you, subscribe, share it with someone who's worried about cognitive changes, and leave a review so more families can find it.Many thanks to Council of Dementia Minds and Wayne State University.

As a mom of three boys, one of the questions I think about most is: how do we raise healthy, resilient kids in a world that feels increasingly complicated? In this special compilation episode, I'm revisiting some of my favorite conversations about parenting, emotional health, food, independence, and resilience. These discussions have shaped the way I approach motherhood and have given me practical tools that I come back to again and again. You'll hear from Dr. Lauren Hartman on helping kids develop a healthy relationship with food and their bodies, Devon Kuntzman on understanding toddler behavior and responding with connection instead of reaction, Lenore Skenazy on why independence is one of the greatest gifts we can give our children, and Nicole Runyon on setting boundaries that foster confidence, resilience, and emotional strength. No matter what stage of parenting you're in, I hope these conversations remind you that raising healthy kids isn't about perfection, it's about showing up with consistency, presence, and trust. → Leave Us A Voice Message!

After decades as a surgeon, professor, and medical expert, Dr. Anthony Goodman found himself facing an unexpected diagnosis: early Alzheimer's disease. In this conversation, Dr. Goodman and his wife, Maribeth, share what it was like to recognize the signs, receive the diagnosis, navigate treatment, and redefine life as a family. They discuss the difficult moment their daughter urged Dr. Goodman to seek help, the emotional challenge of moving from doctor to patient, and the surprising hope they found through early intervention and new Alzheimer's treatments. They offer an honest look at caregiving, stigma, identity, and the importance of talking openly about dementia. ABOUT GUEST Dr. Anthony Goodman is a former surgeon and medical educator. His new memoir, “Great Saves and Terrible Losses: The Journeys of a Surgeon,” chronicles both his decades-long career in medicine and his journey after being diagnosed with early Alzheimer's disease.

Amyloid-targeting monoclonal antibody treatments have ushered in a new era of Alzheimer's disease therapies after decades of research and clinical trials. A recent review published by Cochrane, a global, independent, non-profit network of researchers, professionals, patients and carers regarded as a gold standard for producing and promoting trusted, high-quality health information, has a different perspective on these therapies. The review found these treatments produce “little to no difference” in cognition and offer few benefits while increasing risks for adverse effects. Drs. Cynthia Carlsson, a clinical trialist, David Wolk, a clinician, and Henrik Zetterberg, a biomarker and disease biology expert, join the podcast to break down the review and their concerns, as well as highlight how this review could impact clinical care, research and public policy. Guests: Cynthia Carlsson, MD, MS, director, Wisconsin Alzheimer's Institute, Clinical Core leader, Wisconsin Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC), Louis A. Holland, Sr., Professor in Alzheimer's Disease, geriatrician, University of Wisconsin (UW) School of Medicine and Public Health; David Wolk, MD, director, Penn ADRC, co-director, Penn Memory Center, co-director, Penn Institute on Aging, professor of neurology, University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine; and Henrik Zetterberg, MD, PhD, professor of neurochemistry, University of Gothenburg, visiting professor, UW–Madison and University College London, Biomarker Core co-leader, Wisconsin ADRC Show Notes Read Cochrane's review, “Amyloid‐beta‐targeting monoclonal antibodies for people with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia due to Alzheimer's disease,” on the Cochrane Library website.

In this episode of BrainStorm, host Meryl Comer sits down with Dr. Nathaniel Chin — geriatrician, Alzheimer's researcher, and author of When Memory Fades: What to Expect at Every Stage, from Early Signs to Full Support for Alzheimer's and Dementia, to explore why early diagnosis of Alzheimer's and dementia is more empowering than it is frightening.Dr. Chin opens up about the fear, stigma, and denial that keep patients and families from seeking answers, and why those hesitations have a real cost. Drawing on his own experience watching his father's cognitive decline, he walks through the subtle early signs of memory change, the difference between normal aging and something more serious, and how new biomarker tests are reshaping the diagnostic conversation.From navigating family denial to balancing hope, Dr. Chin offers a rare combination of clinical expertise and deeply personal insight of the journey. He reminds us that behind every diagnosis is a family with their thoughts on what matters most. Support the show
On the surface, Victoria Cillier's life seemed to be picturesque. She had just given birth to her second child with her husband, Emile, and the couple had planned a skydiving excursion for Victoria.

Send Gemma a messageIn this episode of Healing for Love, Dr. Gemma Gladstone explores the early warning signs of controlling, narcissistic and potentially coercive relationship dynamics - particularly the subtle behaviours that many women dismiss, minimise or explain away in the beginning.This episode is not about blame. It is about prevention, awareness and learning to trust yourself earlier.Gemma breaks down: why some controlling behaviours can initially look like care or protection how love bombing and boundary crossing often work together the subtle ways controlling people gradually erode your autonomy why narcissistic and coercively controlling individuals struggle to tolerate your individuality and separateness how early manipulation often appears through “small” interactions why boundary creeping, guilt, criticism and emotional pressure matter the connection between control, entitlement and coercive dynamics why many women ignore or override their early instincts the importance of recognising what gets in the way of leaving early how schemas such as abandonment, emotional deprivation, subjugation and self-sacrifice can keep women stuck in unhealthy dynamics Gemma also discusses: emotional manipulation intrusive behaviour disguised as care isolation tactics shame sensitivity and rage reactions dependency-building behaviours subtle control around appearance, friendships and daily choices the psychological function of coercive control Most importantly, this episode highlights why early recognition matters.The sooner unhealthy dynamics are recognised, the easier it becomes to protect your sense of self, your wellbeing and your future.In this episode: What coercive control actually is Why control often begins subtly The difference between care and control Early signs of dangerous relationship dynamics Boundary crossing and “boundary creep” Why love bombing can feel confusing How controlling partners gradually isolate women Why healthy partners tolerate difference and autonomy How schemas can interfere with self-protection Why taking relationships slowly matters Support the show

Journey to Diagnosis is a Being Patient series sponsored by Eisai. As with all of our reporting, the sponsor has no role in choosing guests, shaping questions, or reviewing content before publication.Eisai: https://www.eisai.com/index.htmlJourney to Diagnosis: https://beingpatient.com/journey-to-diagnosis/Juli Chenault first began noticing memory lapses in 2008 while working as a business representative and traveling regularly across Kentucky. One of the first warning signs came when she could not remember how to get to an apartment she had visited many times and had to call her supervisor for help. After raising concerns about her memory with her primary care doctor and undergoing further evaluation, Chenault was diagnosed with early-stage dementia in her early 50s. Her mother had also lived with Alzheimer's disease.Since her diagnosis, she has remained committed to managing her health, staying on medication, and keeping her mind active. The support of her family has played a central role, both in recognizing the early changes and in helping her move forward.In the conversation with Being Patient's Mark Niu, Chenault discusses the relief of finally having answers, the importance of staying mentally and socially active, and the role her family has played in supporting her day to day. She also speaks about the need for more awareness in Black communities, where stigma, denial, and lack of information may keep people from seeking help. Chenault encourages others to take memory changes seriously, see a doctor, follow treatment recommendations, and stay connected to the people and activities that help keep the brain active.-----If you loved listening to this Live Talk, visit our website to find more of our Alzheimer's coverage and subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.beingpatient.com/Follow Being Patient: Twitter: https://twitter.com/Being_Patient_Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingpatientvoices/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingpatientalzheimersLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/being-patientBeing Patient is an editorially independent journalism outlet for news and reporting about brain health, cognitive science, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Understand Loneliness & Create Fulfilling, Lasting Relationships https://offer.personaldevelopmentschool.com/loneliness-promo?utm_source=podcast&utm_campaign=overcoming-loneliness&utm_medium=organic&utm_content=pod-05-08-26&el=podcast Cheating is one of the most misunderstood dynamics in relationships. It's often seen as a problem of temptation or lack of discipline, but in reality, it usually stems from something much deeper: unmet needs and Attachment patterns. Understanding why cheating happens, and how it differs by Attachment Style can help you recognize early warning signs and build healthier, more secure relationships. Episode Summary In this episode, Thais Gibson breaks down the real psychology behind cheating and how it shows up across different Attachment Styles. You'll learn why Anxious Preoccupied, Dismissive Avoidant, Fearful Avoidant, and Securely Attached individuals experience and approach infidelity differently and how most cheating is driven by unmet emotional needs rather than purely physical desire. Thais also explains how secure relationships are built through open communication, needs fulfillment, and emotional awareness and why trust is something you actively create, not something you passively hope for. Key Takeaways ✔️ Cheating is often driven by unmet needs, not just physical attraction ✔️ Anxious Preoccupied individuals may seek emotional validation outside the relationship ✔️ Dismissive Avoidant individuals may cheat when feeling criticized or misunderstood ✔️ Fearful Avoidant patterns may lead to sabotage driven by fear and emotional instability ✔️ Emotional or physical affairs often reflect different Attachment Style patterns ✔️ Securely Attached individuals communicate needs instead of seeking them elsewhere ✔️ Healthy trust is built through communication, not assumed Meet the Host Thais Gibson is the founder of The Personal Development School and a world leader in attachment theory. With a Ph.D. and over a dozen certifications, she's helped more than 70,000 people reprogram their subconscious and build thriving relationships. Helpful Resources:

Most businesses don't start with a perfect idea they start with a problem that can't be ignored. In this episode, Santiago Galvez, founder of Pet Cultures, shares how a personal challenge saving his dog after a severe health issue turned into a fast-growing international brand. After trying dozens of products that didn't work, Santiago realized something deeper: the market was filled with solutions that sounded good but failed in execution. Leveraging his background with major CPG companies like Procter & Gamble and PepsiCo, he partnered with a chemist to create a better formulation one rooted in effectiveness, not marketing. But what makes this conversation powerful isn't just the product it's the strategy behind the growth. From understanding consumer psychology to expanding internationally, Santiago breaks down how different markets think, buy, and adopt products. For entrepreneurs, this episode highlights a critical truth: the best businesses don't chase trends they solve real problems better than anyone else.

Did you know burnout often starts subtly and can be mistaken for dedication?In this solo episode, I explore the early, often-overlooked stages of burnout. Burnout builds gradually, frequently disguising itself as dedication or busyness. I share three key warning signs for you to watch out for. Listen now so you can take action before it's too late.
This week on Autonomy Signals, Grayson Brulte and Rob Grant discuss the Artemis II mission, Amazon's coordinated embodied AI acquisitions, HD Hyundai's Avikus DNV maritime autonomy certification from Norway, and declining AI bubble odds on Polymarket.NASA's Artemis II crew traveled 252,756 miles from Earth, surpassing Apollo 13 by over 4,000 miles. An achievement that is extraordinary in itself. AUTNMY AI‘s proprietary OMEGA algorithm identified the mission as a human supervised automation event, not a fully autonomous one, creating a semantic conflation risk as the market is mispricing how autonomous the program truly is today.With Artemis III scheduled for 2028 and self-driving lunar terrain vehicles part of the mission, autonomous vehicles will most likely be operating on the moon before New York City due to New York State and City policy. The constraint is policy, not technology.Amazon's simultaneous acquisition of Fauna Robotics and RIVR is a coordinated platform play to acquire real world interaction data at a moment of physical AI data scarcity. While Amazon made acquisitions, BMW deployed a Hexagon wheeled humanoid on its German production line, and Figure AI said they can assemble a humanoid in 90 minutes, with consolidation emerging as the defining structural trend in embodied AI.From embodied AI to maritime autonomy, the autonomy economy is beginning to take shape. HD Hyundai's HiNAS navigation system recently received DNV type approval from Norway, enabling fully autonomous commercial vessel operations as the risk of NVIDIA moving into maritime autonomy and vertically integrating lingers.Polymarket AI bubble odds declined to 19%. With OMEGA assesses that the bubble framing is wrong. The operative risk is which layer of the stack survives the transition from speculative deployment to industrial accountability.Episode Chapters00:00 AUTNMY AI01:10 Signal 1: Artemis || Launch and the Autonomy Gap25:21 Signal 2: Early Signs of Embodied AI Consolidation57:12 Signal 3: Maritime Autonomy01:16:46 Signal 4: Polymarket AI Bubble Odds Decline to 19%01:23:39 Closing--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy is the leading applied intelligence platform covering the convergence of automation, autonomy, and the Autonomy Economy.™.Through our podcasts, newsletter, and proprietary market intelligence, we set the narrative for institutional investors, industry executives, and policymakers navigating the convergence of automation, autonomy, and economic growth.Join institutional investors and industry leaders who read This Week in The Autonomy Economy every Sunday.

the importance of early autism screening tools, pediatric evaluations, and timely intervention. They also address common autism myths and misconceptions, including the belief that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) cannot improve. Dr. Lyons discusses how early intervention programs can significantly improve outcomes. Evidence-based therapies such as ABA therapy (Applied Behavior Analysis) and PRT (Pivotal Response Treatment) are explored as powerful tools to enhance communication skills, social development, and adaptive behavior. The conversation also highlights underlying health factors like gut health, sleep disorders, and nutritional deficiencies that may impact autism symptoms. Dr. Theresa Lyons and Dr. Foojan explore the complexity of autism spectrum disorder, emphasizing that autism is not a one-size-fits-all condition. They discuss co-occurring conditions such as ADHD, anxiety disorders, and dyslexia, and how overlapping symptoms can complicate diagnosis and treatment. Topics like high-functioning autism, masking behaviors, and emotional meltdowns at home are also examined, encouraging parents to trust their instincts regardless of their child's external presentation. The episode sheds light on the intense stress parents face during autism meltdowns, including emotional exhaustion and physical strain. Dr. Lyons shares research indicating that parents of children with autism may have a 20–30% higher risk of PTSD due to chronic stress. She offers practical emotional regulation strategies for parents and explains how maintaining calm during meltdowns can help de-escalate challenging situations. The discussion also explores the emotional toll of raising a child with autism, including feelings of guilt, isolation, and overwhelm—especially in public settings. They talk about coping strategies, social withdrawal, and the impact on siblings, who may also experience increased stress or trauma. A groundbreaking clinical trial using EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is discussed, showing promising results in reducing PTSD symptoms in parents while improving emotional regulation in children. Finally, the episode focuses on empowering autism families through therapy, communication strategies, and strong emotional support systems. Dr. Lyons emphasizes teaching independence, fostering autonomy, and supporting both parents and siblings. The role of siblings in long-term caregiving, challenges faced by non-speaking individuals with autism, and the importance of building self-esteem are all addressed. Dr. Foojan highlights the need for parents to release guilt and make confident, informed decisions while accessing the right autism resources and support networks.
Send us Fan MailLois Brady on Autism Digest, Real Stories, and Raising Expectations in Autism Support Host Tony Mantor welcomes Lois Brady, publisher of Autism Digest and a speech-language pathologist, to discuss how the magazine blends expert guidance with lived experience using multimedia features like QR-linked videos. Brady shares how writing Apps for Autism and contributing to Autism, Asperger's Digest led to her acquiring the publication nearly two years ago. As the mother of an autistic son, she describes early signs, being brushed off by providers, choosing not to label him in school, and the long-term effort that helped him become independent and employed, though social challenges remain. Brady emphasizes early identification, practical parent strategies, and avoiding the Rosenthal Effect of low expectations, including teaching non-speaking individuals to type. She describes a breakthrough with a non-speaking child using text-to-speech, addresses public misconceptions, contrasts meltdowns with tantrums, discusses Asperger's being folded into autism, highlights Temple Grandin's practical advice, and explores how AI can support early intervention and diagnostic cues. 00:00 Show Intro and Mission 01:21 Meet Lois Brady 02:18 How Autism Digest Began 04:28 Early Career and Inspiration 05:14 A Mom's Diagnosis Journey 07:39 Early Signs and Adulthood Today 09:16 How Autism Understanding Evolved 10:33 Raising Expectations and Communication 12:16 Typing Breakthrough Story 14:24 Lessons from Autistic Voices 16:06 Media Myths and Public Understanding 17:43 Aspergers vs Autism 18:17 AI for Early Support 21:10 From Cure to Support 22:51 Temple Grandin Wisdom 24:25 Meltdowns vs Tantrums 25:41 Stories and Rising Rates 28:52 Success and High Expectations 29:57 Transitions and Exposure 31:06 Ask Learn Connect INTRO/OUTRO Music: T.

Most women spend years dismissing their own symptoms: brain fog, frozen shoulder, mood crashes, vanishing libido, never realizing these aren't signs of aging, they're signals of a hormonal shift that begins nearly a decade before menopause hits. Today, I'm with board-certified OB-GYN and menopause expert Dr. Jessica Shepherd to dismantle the myths that have kept millions of women unnecessarily suffering, including the misrepresented WHI study that put hormone therapy off the table for a generation.

I've been thinking a lot about how we talk about food, bodies, and health with our kids…and with ourselves. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lauren Hartman to explore how parents can model kindness, trust their instincts, and help kids develop a healthy relationship with food without shame or rules. We talk about movement, social media, high sugar foods, and the small daily choices that shape how children experience their bodies. Whether you're navigating mealtimes, worried about eating habits, or just want practical ways to support your child's well-being, this conversation is full of insights you can actually use. We also touch on early intervention, balancing nutrition with life's realities, and why rest, self-compassion, and awareness can make all the difference. → Leave Us A Voice Message!

When food starts to feel tense, restrictive, or obsessive at home, it can send a parent into panic fast.In observation of National Eating Disorder Awareness Week, Dr. Becky sits down with Dr. Erin Parks, Chief Clinical Officer at Equip Health, to talk about eating disorders and disordered eating in kids and teens—what the early signs look like, what's happening emotionally underneath, and how parents can respond without escalating shame or control struggles.Eating disorders affect an estimated 30 million Americans in their lifetime. They are common. They are serious. And they are not caused by “bad parenting.” In this episode, we cover: Early warning signs of eating disorders in kids and teens (including boys) When “healthy eating” becomes rigid or concerning The role of perfectionism and control How diet culture shows up in family language What shame sounds like inside a teen's head How to hold boundaries around health without turning food into a power struggle When it's time to seek professional help Disordered eating behaviors are not about vanity or defiance—they're often attempts to regulate overwhelming feelings. This conversation will help you feel more oriented, more compassionate, and clearer about your role.Equip Health is a sponsor of Good Inside's new Teen podcast.
