Podcasts about Easier

When you're standing in your kitchen with a craving, there's a moment where pouring the drink feels like the path of least resistance.    The familiar routine beckons - no thinking required, no uncomfortable feelings to navigate, just the well-worn neural pathway that promises immediate relief. But what if that sense of ease is actually an illusion?   Tune in this week as Adriana Cloud joins me to explore the hidden effort that comes with drinking on autopilot, and why the "easier" choice often creates more work on the back end. Most importantly, you'll understand why putting effort into change now saves you from the exhausting cycle of shame, self-pity, and mental obsession that comes from staying on the familiar path.   Find a personalized approach that helps you change your habit in my new book, The Ultimate Guide to Drinking Less, here: https://rachelhart.com/guide/   Discover alternative approaches to drinking less inside our membership program, Take a Break: https://rachelhart.com/tab/   Get the full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://rachelhart.com/438

Breathe through the Big Moment. Easier said than done, right? Serious psychological issues, trauma, or deep-seated issues...those require a different approach. But this conversation is an opportunity to talk openly about the Buddhist approach to our everyday stress and anxiety that we're all experiencing—perhaps more in 2025 than ever. "I'm talking about sort of surface everyday stress and anxiety. You're speedy. You're not getting enough done. You're lazy. From a Buddhist point of view, laziness is a reaction to busyness where you want to take a break, but you tune out in a way that isn't actually relaxing." ~ Waylon H. Lewis

Did you miss our review of Groomsmen First Look last October? Have no fear! We're releasing it again for you to enjoy! Alonso is with us today to help us break down all that happen in the 1st Groomsmen movie. ABOUT THE GROOMSMEN FIRST LOOK:A pediatrician and an overseas doctor, meet at a wedding in Philadelphia, but the long distance, family, and their friends may hinder their budding romance.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE GROOMSMEN FIRST LOOK:October 17, 2024 | Hallmark+ / September 6, 2025 | Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF THE GROOMSMEN FIRST LOOK:B.J. Britt as PeteHeather Hemmens as ChelseaJonathan Bennett as DannyTyler Hynes as JacksonBRAN'S THE GROOMSMEN FIRST LOOK SYNOPSIS: This woman walks into a store, clearly hiding from someone. The shop owner asks, “Who are you hiding from?” She peeks out and whispers, “Them! The groomsmen.” The store owner leans in: “What's the story?” She sighs. “It all started with a wedding…”Cut to a wedding. We see a guy in a suit on the phone. His name is Dr. Byer, and he bumps into a girl—not the girl from the beginning, but Hannah's maid of honor. They bond over their shared belief that clip-on ties are cheating. She's nervous about giving a speech. Turns out Dr. Byer is good friends with Danny, the best man. And surprise—she's a doctor too. Dr. Chelsea.There's one other groomsman: Jackson. Jackson, Danny, and Pete have been best friends since summer camp. They love hanging out and, of course, choreographed dances.Pete meets Chelsea, and they end up dancing and talking all night. But there's a catch—she lives halfway around the world. At the end of the night, she drops the bomb: she's leaving in the morning. She says, “We should stay in touch.” Pete replies, “We aren't really going to stay in touch, are we?” He kisses her hand, and they part ways.The next day, Pete's hanging out with the guys. Danny says, “What about a long-distance relationship?” Jackson adds, “Actually, you might be perfect for it. You're so organized and stuck in your ways.” Pete is torn, but they convince him: “You've got to stop her before she goes to the airport and tell her she's all you've ever wanted.”They rush to the hotel, but—womp womp—she's already gone. Pete chases after her, only to realize she was never in the cab. She's still at the hotel. He comes back, gulps some water, and shoots his shot… badly. But Chelsea admits she feels the same way, though she doesn't know how the distance will work. Pete says, “I don't know either, but I don't want to not try.” She grabs his phone, takes a selfie with him, and gives him her number.They start texting nonstop—cute doctor stuff, constant phone calls. Then one day, everything changes: video calls! Jackson takes this seriously, even sending his client Celeste to do Pete's makeup before a call.Pete dials in… no answer. Then a text: “Sorry, this isn't working.” Blocked. WTF?! Jackson and Danny try to reassure him, but Pete feels crushed.Later that night, Pete gets woken up by a call. It's Chelsea. The storm knocked out her internet. That's all she meant—he was never really blocked. Relief.Things go back to normal. They just want to see each other in person. Easier said than done. Both are so busy.One day, Pete's at Danny's nephew's birthday party when Chelsea shows up. “I'm here for one night. Let's go on a proper date.” Danny yells, “WE'RE GOING SHOPPING!”On their date, things feel harder than expected. It's awkward—not just because a guitar player won't stop playing in their faces, but because online chemistry doesn't always translate perfectly in person. So they bail and grab Philly cheesesteaks instead. On their walk, Chelsea admits, “I actually came here to break up with you. But after tonight…I want to keep trying.” Pete smiles: “I know how we can try next…” They kiss.His boys warn him: “Whatever you do, don't say ‘I love you' first.” Naturally, Chelsea hops in a cab, Pete chases it down, and he blurts it out. She says it back. The crowd cheers.Pete decides to propose. The boys warn him: “Don't you think you should spend more time together in person first?” But Pete is set. He flies out to surprise her—only to drop the ring box on the luggage carousel. When it comes back around, it's gone. He scrambles after it, gets detained by TSA, but luckily Chelsea knows the officers. They let him go with a warning. As Pete and Chelsea leave, TSA hands him the ring back. He proposes right then and there. Chelsea laughs: “This is so crazy! Yes!”They go to meet her parents. It's tense—her parents are intense, her mom furious they want to get married on the beach. Eventually, they compromise: a five-star resort by the beach. Pete's mom shows up and disapproves of everything, but then declares she's going to officiate the wedding. The groomsmen arrive, everyone has dinner, and Pete admits he's considering moving overseas with Chelsea.It's too much. Chelsea storms off. “Go camping with your boys. We need a break.” Disaster strikes—a massive storm hits while the guys are lost in the woods, grounding flights and keeping wedding guests away.Pete fights with the groomsmen, storms off, then they reconcile. The next day, things are better. He and Chelsea reconnect on the beach. She tells him she can't wait to spend the rest of her life with him. They kiss and, right then and there, get married exactly the way they wanted—simple, real, and by the ocean.So what does this have to do with the woman from the beginning? She leans in and says: “Pete and Chelsea's story was just the beginning. Because after them… there was another wedding.”

Learn how to build high-performing teams by setting and enforcing clear standards. The colourful expression "It's Easier To Rein In a Stallion Than To Flog a Donkey" gives you pretty much everything you need to know about talent management and team performance.But it's advice that's rarely heeded by leaders.We spend an inordinate amount of time trying to get people to reach a level of performance that, quite often, they simply have no interest in achieving.It sucks our time, our energy, and our will, and it makes every day feel a lot harder than it should be.In this episode, I make the case for building talent, and creating a team where people are expected to meet the minimum acceptable standard… or find a less demanding job somewhere else.————————

Steve Fezzik, Mackenzie Rivers and Munaf Manji talk all thing NFL contests this week. NFL Contest Pod – Week 1 Picks Recap At 0:09–1:11, host Munaf Manji introduced a new series on RJ Bell's Dream Preview focused on Las Vegas ATS contests like the SuperContest, Circa Millions, and Survivor formats. The goal: share do's and don'ts to help players map a winning season. At 1:11–1:26, Mackenzie Rivers highlighted his track record of “never less than a 55% record,” underscoring how even solid numbers don't always cash. Munaf at 1:27–1:51 set up Steve Fezzik as the two-time SuperContest champion, with Fezzik admitting at 1:51–2:28 that staying motivated after elimination has been his biggest challenge. Munaf recalled at 2:28–3:37 placing in 2019 with a $4,500 cash, stressing contests as a learning tool for NFL handicapping. Fezzik at 3:37–6:39 traced his rise from parlay cards to winning five contests between 2008–2009 and most recently finishing 21st in Circa Millions with a $400,000 Survivor payout. His advice: start with free contests, move to low-cost formats like “Last Man Standing,” then scale to Circa Millions or the $100,000-entry Grandissimo depending on bankroll. At 7:06–7:53, Mackenzie recalled entering Westgate and Circa via free entries, noting a 57% year still didn't cash. Munaf said his 2019 success came with a 60%+ record when payouts reached the top 100. Fezzik stressed at 8:45–10:56 the importance of overlays, preferring Circa Millions to Westgate, and warned against submitting picks early, especially before Thursday games, since injury news can shift opinions. His top rule: never miss deadlines but don't rush. At 12:11–16:19, discussion turned to Circa's rise. Fezzik pointed to cheaper entry fees, quarterly prizes, heavy marketing, and the excitement of downtown Las Vegas. By contrast, Westgate lost ground with high rake, fewer prizes, weak advertising, and restrictive betting limits. Fezzik's lesson at 17:47–19:00: “Don't play a bad number.” Contest picks should mirror real bets, with plus three always better than plus two-and-a-half. Hitting 60% requires value-driven selections. At 19:01–20:45, Munaf promoted Pregame's free “SuperContest 25 Free and Easier,” highlighting flexible pick submission and a $1,500 prize or Westgate entry for winners. Fezzik cautioned at 20:45–21:11 that no system guarantees profit, reminding listeners it's still gambling. Survivor strategy took over at 22:19–25:54, with Fezzik urging players to save elite teams like Philadelphia for holiday weeks but also noting overlays emerge when big favorites lose, creating profitable re-entry opportunities. At 26:46–28:33, he explained his simplified approach: keep holiday teams available, ride big favorites like Denver, and avoid coin-flip games. At 29:25–31:11, Fezzik described partnering with players by buying entry shares below market and offering consultation, a cleaner hedge alternative. He reaffirmed at 31:23–32:48 that hedging late in Survivor is essential, locking life-changing profits without eliminating rooting interest. The pod closed at 36:20–36:38 with Fezzik naming Denver as his Week 1 survivor pick. Mackenzie at 36:47–37:36 promoted his “Straight Outta Vegas AM” survivor show, while Munaf previewed weekly contest coverage. Fezzik wrapped at 37:57–38:04 with a playful reminder: “survive, survive, survive.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Before we get into some nitty gritty stuff, I want to do Laurie's question about hormone replacement therapy, since that is still one of those topics that people are like, Is it good? Is it bad? I don't know.So Laurie asked: Is there a reason why a doctor would not want to prescribe hormone replacement therapy? My doctor seems more willing to treat individual symptoms instead of using HRT. Is that maybe because I'm still getting my period?MaraI love this question. Now my professor hat can nerd out about interpretation of scientific research! So first, I'll just briefly say, Laurie, no big deal that you said HRT. But just so everyone's aware, the preferred term is menopausal hormone therapy, MHT, or just hormone therapy, and it's not a huge deal. But I think the North American Menopause Society now uses “menopausal hormone therapy.” The thinking is, hormones don't necessarily need to be replaced. It comes back to that idea of, menopause is a natural part of life, and so the idea that they would need to be replaced is not totally accurate. VirginiaWe're not trying to get you out of menopause, right? The goal isn't to push you back into some pre-menopausal hormonal state. MaraBut again, not a big deal. You'll see HRT still used, and a lot of doctors still use that term. So I graduated from medical school in 2015 and I remember one of the first times that a patient asked me about using menopausal hormone therapy, I was terrified. And I was still in training, so luckily, I had a mentor who guided me through it. But I had absorbed this very clear message from medical school, which is that menopausal hormone therapy will cause heart disease, cause pulmonary emboli, which are blood clots in the lungs, and cause breast cancer.And I was like, “Ahhh! I'm gonna cause harm to my patients. This is scary.” I had also learned that hot flashes–they weren't life threatening. So a patient could just use a fan and she'd be fine, right? She didn't need medicine for it.VirginiaCool.MaraI think the dismissal of symptoms here is just straight up misogyny. That message of, oh, you should just live with this You're tough, you're a woman, you can do it. This is just the next stage of it. Is just misogyny, right?But the fear of using menopausal hormone therapy has a specific historical context. There was a major study called the Women's Health Initiative, and it was a randomized control trial, which is the gold standard in medical research. People were given estrogen and progestin to treat menopausal symptoms or they were given a placebo, and they didn't know which pill they took. But WHI was actually halted early because they found an increased risk of breast cancer. This was on the front page of The New York Times. It was a really, really big deal. That was 2002 or 2003. So even 15 years later, when I was starting out as a doctor, I was still absorbing its message. And I think a lot of doctors who are still in practice have just deeply absorbed this message.But there's a lot to consider here. The first issue is in the way that information about the Women's Health Initiative was communicated. Nerd out with me for a second here: There is a big difference between absolute risk and relative risk. And this is a really subtle issue that's often communicated poorly in the media.So I looked it up in the initial paper that came out of the Women's Health Initiative. There was a relative risk of 26 percent of invasive breast cancer, right? So that meant that the people who got the estrogen and progestin, as opposed to a placebo, had a relative increased risk of 26 percent compared to the placebo arm.VirginiaWhich sounds scary,MaraSounds terrifying, right? But the absolute risk is the risk in comparison to one another. And they found that if you're a patient taking the estrogen/progestin, your absolute risk was 8 people out of 10,000 women a year would get invasive breast cancer. So it's very, very small.And this is an issue I see in medical journalism all the time. We talk about relative risk, like your risk compared to another group, but the absolute risk remains extremely low.And just to round it out: I looked all this up about cardiovascular events too. Things like a heart attack, a stroke. So the absolute risk was 19. So there were 19 cases of a cardiovascular event out of 10,000 women in a year. People just freaked out about this because of the way that it was covered in the media. VirginiaI was fresh out of college, doing women's health journalism at the time. So I fully own having been part of that problem. We definitely reported on the relative risk, not the absolute risk. And I don't understand why. I look back and I'm like, what were we all doing? We ended up taking this medication away from millions of women who could really benefit from it.MaraI found a paper that showed between 2002 and 2009 prescriptions for menopausal hormone therapy declined by more than 60 percent. VirginiaI'm not surprised. MaraAnd then even up until the time I started my training, right in 2015, we're just seeing a huge decline in hormone therapy prescriptions.One other thing that's also super important to acknowledge about the Women's Health Initiative is that they enrolled women over 60, which is not really representative of women who want or need hormone therapy. So the average age of menopause is 51 and the vast majority of women who are experiencing symptoms that would respond well to hormone therapy are much younger. We're talking here mostly about hot flashes. Which we call vasomotor symptoms of menopause, but it's basically hot flashes. Women dealing with this are much younger, right? So they're approaching menopause, late 40s, and right after the menopausal transition, early 50s, and then they don't necessarily need it anymore, after their symptoms have improved.VirginiaAnd it will also be true that with women in their 60s, you're going to see more incidence of cancer and heart disease in that age group than in women in their 40s anyway, right? MaraRightVirginiaSo even the 19 cases, the eight cases—they were looking at a higher risk population in general. MaraYeah. And so there have been all these subsequent analyses, which is why now we're seeing menopausal hormone therapy sort of on the upswing. There's a lot of increased interest in it. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends it, the North American Menopause Society, the British Menopause Society; here's a full run-down. It's not that everybody needs it, and we'll get to that in a second, but it is a totally safe and appropriate treatment for—specifically and most importantly—for vasomotor symptoms of menopause. Like hot flashes. There's been all these further analyses of the Women's Health Initiative data and and then from other studies, too. And basically, it shows that when the hormone therapy is initiated before age 60, or within 10 years of menopause, there's a reduced risk of heart disease and reduced mortality.VirginiaWow! MaraSo the timing matters. Isn't that so interesting? The timing matters.Also, the route of administration matters. So what that means in English is that an estrogen patch seems to have a lower risk of blood clots. So one of those fears of the, you know, initial Women's Health Initiative data was that you might have an increased risk of blood clots. But it's something about the way that the estrogen is metabolized. It's not metabolized through the liver when it's absorbed through the skin, and something about that process seems to decrease the risk of blood clots.So that's why your doctor, if you're interested in menopausal hormone therapy, might recommend an estrogen patch rather than a pill.VirginiaGot it. MaraThere's a lot of ambiguity in all of this data, because, you know, we're talking about just huge numbers of people, and it's hard to sort of isolate variables when you're studying just like massive cohorts of people and trying to understand what you know, what factors affect your risk for which diseases. It's not clear that taking hormones prevents heart disease. And that's one of the big claims I see with menopause influencers, that every single person needs this.The data don't support it at this point in time, and the major menopause organizations do not recommend it as a universal preventative treatment for everybody. But it seems like there might be some sort of association that may become clearer as research continues. That said, now it seems like the pendulum is swinging in the opposite direction. I learned, “be afraid of menopausal hormone treatment.” And now all these menopause influencers are saying everyone should be on hormone therapy.I don't know the answer. And so the way that I try to parse through all of this noise is, you know, go to trusted sources, right? So I stick to society guidelines, like the North American menopause society, the British menopause society, they're run by world experts in menopause.VirginiaOkay, so we don't need to be terrified of hormone therapy, and you can be on it if you're still getting your period right? Just to finish Laurie's question.MaraIf you're still getting a period regularly, you're more in perimenopause than past the menopausal transition. And we will often use contraception to help and that you can have a lot of the same benefits from using contraception in that stage. It's also useful just because unintended pregnancy still can be totally a thing in your 40s. But yes, you can absolutely use traditional regimens of menopausal hormone therapy while you're still getting a period too. Just know it won't prevent pregnancy. VirginiaSince we talked a little bit about hot flashes, I'm gonna jump to Judy's question so we can kind of round that piece out: One of the things I am really struggling with is the way I have lost all ability to regulate temperature. I am boiling hot almost all the time, and the slightest thing makes me break out into a full sweat, which makes me not want to move at all.My doctor has not been super helpful in navigating this. What can I do to mitigate this issue? If anything, it is so very hard for me not to blame the size of my body for this, since the correlation seems so clear, smaller body less sweating, larger body sweating all the dang time.MaraJudy, I empathize first of all. Just one caveat I can't really give medical advice to Judy. There are a lot of things that could be going on, and it's really important that you see a doctor and get a full history and physical exam. But I will say that this is one of the things that menopausal hormone therapy is extremely helpful for, is hot flashes.VirginiaThat was my first thought! MaraThere are a lot of influencers who really overstate the benefits of hormone therapy, right? Hormone therapy is not really going to cause significant weight loss or prevent weight gain. It's not totally clear that it helps with mood symptoms or even sleep is a little more ambiguous. But the one thing it really works for is hot flashes. So that would be my thought: Start there. VirginiaAnd on the feeling like you want to blame your body for it: I don't know if Judy identifies as fat, but as someone who identifies as fat, I often feel like I'm sweatier now than when I was thinner. I run warmer. All my skinny friends will be bundled up in coats, and I still won't be wearing one in October. I do notice that. And I think that this is a situation where that is, even if those two things correlate— you're larger and you're sweatier—is that worth putting yourself through the hell of weight loss? You may decide yes, it is, if hormone therapy doesn't work for you.But that's one of those times where I bring it back to “What would actually make my daily life miserable?” I can drink water, I can be in AC, I'm gonna find a link to this nighttime cooling bed thing that my friend Claire Zulkey really loves. MaraI've heard of those!VirginiaI think there are options to mitigate your suffering with this. Medicine is definitely an option. Before you go to “okay, my body size has to be the thing that changes.”MaraI totally agree. I just deal with this all the time where people tell me in my clinic that they want to lose weight. And when I sort of gently ask, what are you hoping to achieve? What are your goals? They're often things that can be achieved through other means. Like, people say my clothes don't fit, right? And most of my patients are low-income, right? I'm not trying to be flippant about the idea that everyone can just go and purchase a new, you know, multi $1,000 wardrobe at the drop of a hat. But it is possible to get new clothes in affordable ways. Don't torture yourself with clothes that don't fit because you feel like weight gain is a moral failing. And I think that there are things that we can do to help keep us at a comfortable temperature, right wear clothes that feel, you know, that feel good. Air conditioning is an amazing modern invention. And, you know, cool beverages, ice cream. VirginiaPopsicle O'Clock is very important in my summer right now, very important. MaraWait, what's a popsicle clock?VirginiaOh, Popsicle O'Clock. It's just the time of day where you eat popsicles. It could be 9am it could be 4pm just whenever I feel like we need to add popsicles to a situation.MaraI think we all need more popsicles in our life, that is absolutely for sure.So I think what I'm hearing from Judy's question is once again, shame about body size, and also this myopic zooming in on weight loss as the only possible solution. Which I blame doctors for in many ways! Some people do benefit from weight loss, right? I'm not opposed to the idea that anybody would ever want to lose weight. I don't think that that's a betrayal of fat solidarity, necessarily. But that there are other things you can do just to make your life feel better in the meantime, or even if you choose to never pursue weight loss. There are things you can do to feel better, and we shouldn't deprive ourselves of those things.VirginiaAnd you don't know that it is the weight gain. It could be age and hormones, and those coincided with the weight gain for you personally. But there are lots of thin women getting hot flashes all the time too.Okay, this next question is from Michaela: I am super curious about the connection between perimenopause, menopause and mental health symptoms, specifically, an uptick in anxiety and depression. Is this a thing?We also got many questions about whether perimenopause and menopause exacerbate ADHD symptoms. MaraSo this is a question I get a lot from my patients, and I've seen a lot of discourse about online. And the short answer is: There is probably a connection between the hormonal changes of perimenopause and the menopausal transition and mental health. Do we understand it? No. So I mean, with ADHD specifically, I will say: This is really not my area of expertise. It's a very complex mental health condition, and our medical understanding of it is really rapidly evolving. I have many patients who have a diagnosis of ADHD but I'm typically not the one who diagnoses them. That being said: Estrogen affects neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are implicated in ADHD. Declining estrogen does seem to affect dopamine, in particular, which is implicated in ADHD. And anecdotally, I've had many of my patients say that they feel like their ability to focus and sustain attention decreases. And they experience brain fog as they enter perimenopause and menopause. So it's there's probably something going on, and a lot of researchers are really actively studying it, but we don't know yet.VirginiaDo we know if this is something that hormone therapy can help with?MaraSo I think the answer is, I don't know.VirginiaWhat about anxiety and depression?MaraI don't think the data are there, right? Hormone therapy is usually not considered a first line treatment for the mental health conditions that are often associated with the menopausal transition. But we have great medicines for those conditions. We have good treatments for ADHD, we have good treatments for anxiety and depression. And sometimes during the menopausal transition, patients might need an increase of those treatments. And that could mean going back into therapy, if you've been out of therapy, increasing your medications or restarting a med that you may have stopped years ago. Those are all totally valid approaches during this phase.And I guess what I'd say, is that it's okay to trust your body. And if you notice changes in your mental health associated with perimenopause or menopause itself, ask about it. Don't be afraid to advocate for yourself. And while hormone therapy doesn't look like it is an effective treatment specifically for those symptoms, there are other treatments, and you should feel empowered to ask about them.VirginiaThe next question goes back to some of the diet and exercise stuff we've touched on. This person writes: Since recently reaching menopause, my cholesterol has become high. I understand there is a proven link between menopause and increased cholesterol, and that weight is part of the picture. I'm trying to lower my cholesterol with focus on nutrition and exercise. But it is f*****g with my head because it feels like a very restrictive diet. I'd love any thoughts on the menopause cholesterol connection and keeping cholesterol low with nutrition and exercise without falling into the abyss of obsessing about how many almonds I've eaten.MaraOh, that is such a good question!VirginiaThe almond of it all. MaraAlmonds are really good in some scenarios, but also just like, kind of a sad snack. I always think about President Obama eating those, like, eight almonds, or whatever.VirginiaIt turns out that was a joke and he wasn't doing that. But just the fact that everybody assumed he would says a lot! MaraThat is hilarious, and I didn't know! And it just shows how with information online, the initial story sticks. Like to this day, 10 years later, I still thought that Barack Obama ate eight almonds as his indulgent midnight snack every single night. I hope the man is eating some ice cream and living his best life. Okay, so there is absolutely a link between menopause and elevated risk of cardiovascular disease. But even within the term cholesterol, there are different types. I wouldn't really say to a patient, “Your cholesterol is high.” One thing you might hear is “your LDL cholesterol is high,” which is known popularly as, the “bad” cholesterol. Which, again, moral language alert. But LDL cholesterol is a proxy for risk of cardiovascular disease. I will say it's not a great one; it's kind of a blunt instrument. We measure and we treat it, because we don't have other great ways of predicting cardiovascular risk. But it is not the full portrait, although it's certainly a risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease. And the transition of menopause seems to impact LDL, cholesterol, other biomarkers of cardiovascular disease, and increases your risk for cardiovascular disease.And what's interesting–I think we talked about this a little bit already, is that this happens, this this risk happens independent of normal aging.So, for example, women who go through menopause early start developing this increased risk earlier than women who go through menopause slightly later. And overall, we see that women develop cardiovascular disease, at rates lower than men, and at later in life than men. And there's a hypothesis that this has to do with menopause, right? That there's a protective effect of estrogen, but then when your estrogen starts to decline in menopause, it puts women at an increased risk compared to where they were pre-menopause.There's also some data to suggest that the severity of menopause symptoms—particularly vasomotor symptoms like hot flashes or sleep disturbances—may indicate risk for developing cardiovascular disease. So this is not to scare everyone, but it's good to have knowledge. If you're having really severe hot flashes, it may indicate that you are at slightly higher risk for developing cardiovascular disease than somebody who is not. The intention of having this knowledge is not to make you feel shame, and not to berate you for your belly fat or whatever. It's to have knowledge so that you can help mitigate risk factors in ways that feel aligned with your values and ways that feel aligned with the way that you want to pursue health in your life.And so I would approach this reader's or this listener's question with smy same approach to all of my patients questions. “I have hypertension, does that mean I need to lose weight?” “I have diabetes, does that mean I need to lose weight?” The answer is that we have many treatments that can help you address these concerns independent of weight loss. But this is not to say that you cannot pursue weight loss too, right? And if using a GLP-1 agonist to reduce your visceral adiposity is aligned with your values, and you can tolerate the side effects, and you feel good about it, and it's covered by your insurance….that's totally a reasonable approach. But it's not the only one. So I think what I'm hearing from this patient is the menopause flavor of what I do every single day in my work as a size inclusive doctor. Which is: How can we disentangle weight stigma and body shame from these questions of how to lead a healthy life? And the idea of giving you more information, I hope, is not to shame you or make you feel guilt for the relationship between body size and risk of cardiovascular disease, but instead, to give you information that might help you take proactive care of your body, right?And proactive care might mean committing to an exercise routine. Proactive care might mean taking a statin. A statin is a very common cholesterol medicine like Lipitor. It might mean getting your blood pressure under control and taking an antihypertensive.VirginiaI also want to say on cholesterol, specifically, I did a piece that I'll link to digging into the connection between nutrition and cholesterol. And the data is not as strong as I think a lot of doctors are telling folks.And I think the benefit of making dietary changes—the amount it could lower cholesterol—was not huge. It was like three points or six points or something in one of the studies we looked at. So if it's making you crazy to count almonds, it's possible that medication might be a more health promoting strategy for you. Because it will be less stressful and it will have a bigger benefit on your cholesterol than just trying to control it through diet and exercise.MaraYeah, I totally agree. I think there's a really strong genetic component that we haven't fully understood and medication is a totally reasonable approach and very safe approach. Honestly, statins are pretty benign medications. They're pretty inexpensive, pretty minimal side effects, which is not to say– nobody's paying me from the statin companies, I swear to God!–but yeah, like they're, they're pretty benign as medications go. And I think it's a totally reasonable way to approach this issue.VirginiaI just think it's one of those times where this is shame coming in, where it's like, “You should be able to fix this with how you eat and exercise, and so you don't get the medication unless you fail at that!” This is a framing that I've encountered from doctors. But what if we gave the medication, what if we also consider diet and exercise, but don't make that a pass/fail situation in order to earn the medication? MaraYeah, that's really interesting.And even the language you're using Virginia is what we use in the medical record, and I've tried to stop it. But the way we're taught to describe patients, is “patient failed XYZ treatment,” right? And I feel like we're both at once, overly invested in pharmaceutical treatments, right and underinvested. They're a very useful tool. And we moralize it, both pro and con? Sometimes, like, we moralize in favor of it. So if your BMI is 26 or above, you need to be on a GLP one agonist, which is just false, right?But on the other hand, I think we often underutilize medications because there's this sense that you're getting at —that you have to exhaust all of your like willpower options first, and it's somehow failing to use a med. And that is really false too. They're really useful tools. Science is really useful, and we shouldn't feel ashamed to use it.VirginiaAll right. And our last question, I like because it just will give us a chance to kind of sum up some key points: As a post menopausal woman, I feel like I'm swimming in information, and I'm overwhelmed by it all. What are Dr Gordon's top three pieces of advice out of all of the WHO meaning, if women at this time only did these three things, it would make the biggest difference, and then they just had it. You know, is, does it need to be different for perimenopause versus post menopause? Or maybe not.So what are your top three? Top three tips for surviving this life stage?MaraOh, my God, if only I knew! I'm flattered that you're asking, and I will do my best to answer, but I don't think there's a right answer at all.So I've thought about a couple things. I will say that, you know, longevity and wellness and health span is extremely complicated, but it's also kind of simple, right?So sometimes the advice that we've just heard over and over again is actually really, really good, right? So, sleep. Are we sleeping enough?Staying engaged with social relationships, that seems to be extremely important for longevity. And it's kind of amazing, actually. When they do these long-term studies on people who are thriving into old age, like they have really strong relationships. And that is so important.Moving our bodies and it does not need to be punishing. Workouts can be gardening. I know Virginia, I love receiving your gardening content online. Gardening is an amazing form of exercise, and can be very life affirming, and does not need to feel like punishment. Just getting up, moving our bodies, sleeping enough, maintaining relationships, cultivating a sense of purpose and meaning in our lives. It's actually been really studied right, that people who have a sense of meaning and have a sense of purpose in their lives tend to live longer and live longer, healthier lives.So all of this is to say that like it's complicated, but sometimes it's not. And there are a million people on the Internet who want to sell you a miracle drug, a miracle supplement, a miracle weighted vest, whatever. But sometimes simple, Simple is good. Easier said than done, right?VirginiaYeah, but start simple. That's wonderful.MaraCan I ask? Virginia, what would your advice be? VirginiaI love the three areas you hit on: Sleep, social relations and exercise or moving your body. None of those are about weight loss or dieting. I think that's really helpful for us to keep in mind that the things that might protect our health the most can also be very joyful as well. The idea that doing things that makes you happy and reduce your stress can be health-promoting is great. And I think that's something especially in midlife. We are all incredibly busy. We're holding a lot of things together. A lot of us are caregivers, maybe sandwich generation caregivers. So prioritizing your own joy in that feels really wonderful.ButterVirginiaAll right, so speaking of joy, let's do some Butter! Dr. Mara, what do you have forus?MaraI have a Philadelphia-specific one, but hopefully it can be extrapolated to our listeners in different locations. So I have recently been really craving soft serve ice cream. And so I googled best soft serve in Philadelphia, and I found this Vietnamese coffee shop called Càphê Roasters, which is in North Philly. In a neighborhood called Kensington. And it has condensed milk soft serve ice cream. So good.And so I recently, I had to give a lecture at a medical school in the north part of the city early in the morning. It was like, 8am and I was like, “Oh, I'm never up in this neighborhood. I gotta get over there.” And I went after I gave my lecture, and I bought myself ice cream at 10:30 in the morning. And I ate it in my car, and it was so good. Condensed milk. So good. But soft serve in general, is my Butter. But for those of you in Philly, go to Càphê Roasters in Kensington and get the condensed milk. It is chef's kiss, delicious.VirginiaAmazing. I'm gonna double your Butter and say ice cream in general is my Butter right now. We have a spare fridge freezer that I have just been loading up with all of the popsicles to get us through summer. But also: Ice cream dates. Something that comes up a lot for me as a co-parent is figuring out how to have one on one time with my kids. Since we have joint custody, they move as a package. So I get kid-free time, which is wonderful, but when they're with me, it's just me. So one thing I've been figuring out is pockets of time when I can take one kid out for ice cream. It's usually when a sibling is at another activity, and so we have an hour to kill, and often we would just like, wait for the activity, or go home and come back, and then you're just driving.And now I'm like, No, that will be our ice cream break!MaraI love that.VirginiaSo one kid's at the library doing her book trivia team stuff, and the other kid and I are getting ice cream while we wait for her. And it's great one on one time with kids. Obviously, the ice cream is delicious. The other thing I've realized, especially if you have younger kids who are still building restaurant skills, ice cream is a great practice run at being a person in a restaurant, which is really hard for kids understandably. It is one food thing that they're excited to go do. And you do have to sit and practice eating it somewhat neatly. There's a high mess potential. My pro-move for that is, always have wipes in your car, bring a pack of wipes in. MaraI love that, and it's so intentional about sort of creating traditions with kids. That feels really special. But I will say I had my ice cream solo, and that was also really good solo ice cream too.The Burnt Toast Podcast is produced and hosted by Virginia Sole-Smith (follow me on Instagram) and Corinne Fay, who runs @SellTradePlus, and Big Undies.The Burnt Toast logo is by Deanna Lowe.Our theme music is by Farideh.Tommy Harron is our audio engineer.Thanks for listening and for supporting anti-diet, body liberation journalism!

“It'd Be Easier If Dan Wasn't Here”: Wendy Adelson Leak Explained by Jeffrey Lacasse In this deep-dive, we analyze a pivotal stretch of the Jeffrey Lacasse police interrogation and the candid round-table that follows—unpacking what it reveals about Wendy Adelson, Charlie Adelson, and Donna Adelson in the Dan Markel case. The conversation focuses on behavioral forensics: emotional regulation, “leakage,” narcissistic injury, family systems, and coercive control—terms that help map motive and mindset without relying on speculation alone. Lacasse recounts late-night talks in which Wendy lamented feeling trapped in Tallahassee by custody litigation and let slip a chilling line: life would be “more convenient” if Dan weren't around. He adds that Wendy referenced Charlie looking into “how it would be done” and “how much it would cost.” In the interrogation room, these statements land with weight—not as jokes, but as actionable disclosures that align with later courtroom narratives. We break down why Lacasse reads as credible: consistent tempo of disclosure, congruent affect, and high recall—alongside the caveat that his lingering attachment to Wendy could color certain interpretations. The panel then probes Charlie Adelson's persona construction—his habit of posturing with “tough” circles, talk of military-adjacent acquaintances, and proximity to people comfortable with criminal enterprise. Is this insecurity, narcissism, or a lifelong rehearsal of dominance learned at home? We examine how Donna Adelson's alleged top-down control may have shaped the siblings' communication style—emotion-first, consequence-later—and why that can result in catastrophic “leakage” (unguarded admissions, careless phone chatter, reckless bravado). We also discuss cognitive dissonance inside tightly bound families: why challenging the matriarch would threaten the children's own identity narratives, and how “safety” can be misdefined as allegiance to dysfunction. Finally, we situate these insights within the legal framework—murder-for-hire theory, motive arising from custody and relocation conflict, and credibility markers detectives scrutinize in major-case interrogations. If you follow the Markel murder timeline, this segment adds crucial psychological context to evidence already tested in court. It's a guided tour through behavior, motive, and family dynamics—where every “offhand” comment may carry forensic weight.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1136: An IRS update that could save EV buyers thousands, how Cadillac is quietly staging a luxury comeback and the deeper impact of AI on software development—and whether vibe-coding is helping or hollowing out the craft.The IRS has provided a much-needed clarification that gives EV buyers a path to still claim the federal tax credit—even if their vehicle hasn't been delivered by the September 30th deadline.Buyers who sign a binding purchase agreement and make a payment by September 30, 2025, can still claim the $7,500 (new) or $4,000 (used) EV tax credit.This clarification resolves confusion around the “placed in service” language, which had been interpreted to mean vehicles had to be delivered before the deadline.Deliveries can now happen after the deadline as long as paperwork and payment are completed beforehand.Dealers must provide a “time of sale report” within three days of vehicle delivery to support the buyer's claim.The clarification comes as EV demand has surged this summer, with analysts crediting savvy shoppers aiming to lock in the credit before its sunset.Cadillac's electric vehicle momentum is giving the brand a shot at reclaiming its former glory in the luxury segment—this time with plugs instead of prestige grilles.Cadillac's U.S. sales have risen for 12 straight quarters, with EVs making up about a third of sales in the past two months.That figure far outpaces both the broader industry (6–8%) and even the luxury segment (14%) for EV market share.Most EV buyers are trading in vehicles from Audi, BMW, and Mercedes—brands that have long outshined Cadillac.Even Tesla is losing 1 in 10 trade-ins to the American luxury brand.“They're now beyond where we expect the industry to be five years from now,” said J.D. Power's Tyson Jominy. “Success today does not necessarily mean success tomorrow.”As AI-assisted vibe coding tools proliferate, developers are grappling with what gets gained—and lost—when code becomes more suggestion than craftsmanship.AI tools now help with everything from debugging to database encryption to entire app scaffolding.While helpful, these tools can also produce bloated, disjointed code without strong editorial guidance.Critics worry that fluency in core principles is eroding, replaced by reliance on “good enough” automation.“It may be the easiest time in history to be a coder,” the author writes, “but it's perhaps harder than ever to grow into a software engineer.”0:00 Intro with Kyle Mountsier and Michael Cirillo1:15 What Kyle and Michael would do with a 2-day work week2:42 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with vAuto on Sept 103:22 EVs Delivered Post-Sept 30 Can Still Receive Tax Credit5:59 Cadillac Sales Grow For 12 Straight Quarters8:25 Vibe Coding Making Coding Easier, But Not GoodJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Can cannabis actually make exercise easier? In this episode, host Ellen Scanlon is joined by journalist Hilary Achauer, who explored that very question in The New York Times. What she found challenges stereotypes and reveals how cannabis can lower barriers to movement — especially for women. Hilary shares stories of women who discovered that cannabis helped them ease chronic pain, quiet anxiety, and even reframe exercise from punishment into joy.  Read “Can Weed Improve a Workout” by Hilary Achauer In this episode: Why cannabis consumers may actually be more active than the general population. How cannabis can help women move through pain and anxiety. The connection between cannabis, body image, and exercise recovery. The surprising science behind the “runner's high” and your endocannabinoid system.

Lisa dives deep into the confusion around "let it be easy" versus doing hard things. If you've been avoiding uncomfortable actions or pushing through everything with force, this episode reveals the difference between allowing and forcing, and why both approaches can keep you stuck.Many of Lisa's clients are excellent at doing hard things. They're masters at pushing through, putting their heads down, and forcing things to happen. But there's a crucial difference between forcing and pushing versus allowing. The energy behind the action matters as much as the action itself.Lisa woke up with sore legs, knowing she had to train glutes that day. Heavy weights, high volume, very mental. She didn't feel like it. But she's committed to her outcome, and she knows that if she starts negotiating with herself based on how she feels, she's already losing.Instead of wasting energy negotiating or switching to upper body, she went straight to the gym. While warming up, she shifted her energy from "Oh my God, this is going to be so hard and take so long" to reminding herself that she's strong, capable, and her body can do this. She tuned into her body's yes or no signals, which is different than just not feeling like it.The key insight: she went in knowing it would be hard and asked "How can I allow this to be easier?"Whether you're trying to transform your body, lose weight, or grow a business, it's going to be hard. Lisa can't tell you how many face-down moments she's had in business, how many hard decisions she's made, how much adversity she's faced. Being an entrepreneur isn't for everyone and it's definitely not a walk in the park.When you're doing hard things, it's confronting. You have to look at your limiting beliefs, the stories you're telling yourself, your current identity and ways of being. You have to stare all of that down, and it's really uncomfortable.Most people aren't willing to do uncomfortable things. So Lisa asks: is it that it's hard, or is it that it's uncomfortable and we don't want to do uncomfortable things?For many high-achievers, the hardest, most uncomfortable thing isn't pushing through more activities. It's learning to slow down, say no, make rest a priority, have more fun, take things off their plate, be in the discomfort of not taking care of everybody else, and actually making themselves a priority.When Lisa was learning to rest, she had to dismantle all her stories and beliefs: rest was lazy, rest was unproductive, rest was for "those people." She had things to do. It was tied to her identity as an overachiever who wore "busy" as a badge of honor. She could do all the things and take care of everybody else while doing them. No wonder she burned out.To heal, she had to learn that slowing down was the hard thing for an over-doer. Most people would say slowing down isn't hard, but when you're wired to constantly achieve, slowing down is the most uncomfortable thing you can do.Lisa had to learn how to make rest feel easier. Resting felt torturous, so she shifted her energy by reminding herself what rest would bring: healing, strength, the ability to do more ultimately. Rest wasn't going to take away from anything. She had to learn to honor and value rest, and that's how she allowed the hard thing to be easier.Get comfortable being uncomfortable. The more you can get comfortable with being uncomfortable, that's when the magic happens. In that discomfort, you can adjust your energy so that even when it's uncomfortable, you still find a way to win and honor your energy.The question becomes: what feels hard that you've been avoiding? And what things are you doing that you're telling yourself are hard that, if you shifted your energy around them, you could allow to be easier?Thank you for being part of this community.
