I'm delighted to reconnect with my dear friend Ben Azadi today, in honor of his newly revised book, Keto Flex. Ben is a leading authority on metabolic health, an international Keystone speaker, and the New York Times best-selling author of Metabolic Freedom. In today's conversation, we discuss why women fail on keto. We examine how women's menstrual cycles and various life stages influence both the ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting, and the importance of coming out of ketosis and incorporating feast days. We explain what the Randall cycle is, why we need to be finely tuned to it, how to support healthy cortisol regulation, particularly the HPA axis, and tools to determine whether we are balanced within the autonomic nervous system, including heart rate variability, sleep, and whether our glucose and ketones are within range. We also explore the effects of anti-nutrients and elimination diets, and Ben shares his approach for women who feel keto hasn't worked for them, explaining why keto should be viewed as a process rather than a diet. This is, as always, a truly invaluable conversation with my dear friend Ben Azadi. Stay tuned, as we will also be offering giveaways to listeners of Ben's new book, Keto Flex. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Various factors that could influence how women respond to a ketogenic diet How women need to adjust keto and fasting according to their menstrual cycle, perimenopause, and postmenopausal years, rather than continuously following the same approach Why Ben encourages women to have intentional feast days instead of remaining in ketosis indefinitely What a feast day looks like, and how it differs from a cheat day Why fasting should be adapted to how well your body tolerates stress Factors that can help to determine whether fasting is working for you Why you should adjust your training intensity and focus more on recovery as you get older How a temporary carnivore elimination diet can help identify foods your body doesn't tolerate Why Ben views keto as a metabolic process rather than a diet, and why he prioritizes lifestyle before medication Bio: Ben Azadi Ben Azadi, FDN-P, is a leading authority on metabolic health, an international keynote speaker, and the New York Times bestselling author of Metabolic Freedom. After facing his own health challenges, Ben transformed his life in 2008—losing 80 pounds and stepping into metabolic freedom. That turning point sparked a global mission: to help 1 billion people break free from physical and mental obesity through education, not medication. With 18+ years in the health and wellness space, Ben is now leading a bold 10-year initiative to naturally reverse type 2 diabetes in 1 million people. Through his work, Ben has reached millions worldwide and personally coached thousands to reclaim their health. His audience includes nearly 3M+ on digital platforms, more than 1M YouTube subscribers with over 100M views, and his top-ranked podcast, The Ben Azadi Show, which has surpassed 100 million downloads.

I am honored to connect with Dr. Sharon Stills today. She is a graduate of naturopathic medical school with extensive training in European biological medicine, bioidentical hormone replacement, and anti-aging therapies. In our conversation today, we explore terrain-based medicine and strategies to support women in perimenopause and beyond. We talk extensively about gut health, the estroblome, the microbiome, how European biological medicine views these as terrain, disruptive factors, and why they matter for women in midlife. We also examine the influence of the lymphatic system and how castor oil packs support it, bioidentical hormones as a lifelong tool rather than a temporary fix, and why menopause is a sacred second act in women's lives. Dr. Stills is thoughtful, insightful, and grounded, and I know you will enjoy this conversation with her as much as I did recording it. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How European biological medicine emphasizes the extracellular matrix (terrain) rather than focusing only on individual cells or mitochondria How declining hormones during menopause often expose longstanding yet previously hidden aspects of women's health Dr. Stills shares what she did to prepare herself for menopause in the preceding years Dr. Stills encourages women to create meaningful challenges or experiences to mark their major life transitions How limiting beliefs about aging can influence how you experience midlife and beyond Factors that could influence the health of your terrain How supplements can play an important role, but work best alongside lifestyle habits, mindfulness, and supporting your body's natural healing processes Why Dr. Stills considers the lymphatic system an overlooked contributor to hormone balance, and some practical ways to support healthy lymphatic flow How simple daily habits often have a greater impact on your health than wellness gadgets The value of bioidentical hormones, and why hormone therapy should be individualized rather than one-size-fits-all Bio: Dr. Sharon Stills Dr. Sharon Stills, a licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor and graduate of The Sonoran University (2001), has spent over two decades transforming women's health, with a special focus on guiding women through perimenopause and menopause. Creator of the pioneering RED Hot Sexy Meno(pause) Program and host of the annual Mastering Your Meno(pause) Transition summit, she combines her expertise in European Biological Medicine, pro-aging therapies, and Bio-identical Hormone Replacement to help women rediscover vitality with natural methods. A respected voice in her field, Dr. Stills has lectured internationally at the Paracelsus Academy in Switzerland, contributed to Women's Health Network, and served on the boards of the Bio-Regulatory Medicine Institute and UCLA's Archive of Healing. She recently opened the Lasting Wellness Center in Scottsdale, AZ—alongside her son, Dr. Ben Stills—offering advanced diagnostic and therapeutic care for chronic illness and women's health.

In this episode, Jason begins a new series on what happens when critical components are missing from an Integrated Production Control System. He explains how paradigms, mindsets, goals, system structure, and rules shape the way a construction project operates. When owners, designers, stakeholders, contracts, and company leaders are not aligned, even strong project teams can be forced into rushing, pushing, bureaucracy, and anti-lean behaviors. What you'll learn in this episode: Why the owner's perspective can determine how the entire project is managed. How misaligned mindsets create delays, conflict, and unstable working conditions. Why the goal of the system must prioritize people, quality, and finishing on time. How contracts, agreements, team structures, and legal requirements affect performance. Why restrictive project rules can prevent teams from implementing lean construction practices. Are you evaluating the project team's performance without first examining the system they are being asked to work within?

Since we've done about 100 episodes pointing out the general lack of preparedness of BCBAs leaving grad school and jumping right into public school work, it'd be pretty mean of us not to have some episodes where we tell you HOW to prepare. And this week we have special guests, Dr. Kristin Foley and Dr. Fina Robertson, doing just that. We cover some of the basics as to how to make friends with teachers and administrators rather than alienating them with your behavior analytic jargon before discussing specific reflection and action steps needed to ensure not just competence in your work, but also maintaining your ethical expectations while you get to work. Quick! You've still got two months of summer vacation to listen up, follow Dr. Foley and Dr. Robertson's guidance, and get your prep in gear! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.

The Office of Personnel Management's proposal to institute a standardized NDA that federal workers could be required to sign as a condition of employment has made for much discussion in federal workforce circles. While many are concerned with the chilling effect it could have on workers, some are wondering about the possible violation of first amendment rights. One of them is the organization Protect Democracy, which filed comments of its own opposing the measure. To get a read on its view, I spoke with Jules Torti who is counsel for the organization.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
On this episode of HALO Talks, Pete Moore sits down with Cricket Wardein, founder of Mighty Pilates, and Cat Martin, the company's CEO and longtime fan, to explore the explosive growth and evolution of their premium Pilates studio brand. Starting with a single location in San Francisco in 2009, Mighty Pilates has grown to 11 studios, with a 12th on the way, successfully combining authentic, high-quality Pilates instruction with a strong sense of community and innovative business strategies. Listen in as Cricket Wardein and Cat Martin share the story of Mighty Pilates, discuss building a sustainable and inclusive fitness brand, and reveal how a commitment to instructor training and neighborhood-focused locations has helped them thrive in an ever-expanding wellness market. On creating an inclusive fitness experience, Cat states, "We don't want technology to be the first thing someone sees when they walk in the door. We want it to be a smiling, welcoming face, a tour that takes you through the studio, a connection with a teacher that really understands how to move with your body." Key themes discussed Mighty Pilates' growth and expansion strategy Importance of high-quality instructor training Community-building and member experience Intentional studio design and amenities Pricing, market differentiation, and competition Flexibility and local adaptation in scheduling Balancing scale with operational excellence A Few Key Takeaways 1. Purposeful, Gradual Growth: Mighty Pilates expanded slowly and intentionally, choosing quality over rapid expansion. The company started with two studios, focusing on perfecting the member experience before scaling up to eleven locations, with a twelfth in progress. This growth was largely funded by studio profits rather than external capital, underscoring a sustainable, disciplined approach 03:14. 2. Commitment to High-Quality Instruction: A core differentiator for Mighty Pilates is its rigorous teacher training program. Instructors must complete 400–600 hours before teaching classes, and the company runs six to seven training cohorts per year. This commitment ensures a consistently high-quality experience, especially compared to the much shorter certifications at some other studios 07:01. 3. Community and Inclusivity Drive Retention: The studios are designed to foster community, with intentional spaces for clients to connect before or after class. Efforts such as coffee and tea stations, happy hour events, and a welcoming, home-like atmosphere encourage members to spend more time at the studio, strengthening loyalty and satisfaction 21:02. 4. Flexible, Data-Informed Studio Operations: Each studio tailors its class schedule and offerings to its local community, rather than applying a cookie-cutter approach. This involves analyzing neighborhood-specific habits (e.g., peak hours relating to school drop-off or urban work schedules) and responding nimbly to market trends like demand for heavier weights or new class types 17:32. 5. Selective and Strategic Expansion: Site selection is highly curated: for every twelve locations considered, only one may be chosen. Factors go beyond typical financial models, with heavy emphasis on surrounding amenities, neighborhood fit, and long-term potential for building community and training pipelines. The company avoids mass franchising, preferring to fill key markets and cluster studios where they can truly embed themselves 25:17.

Most men do not struggle because they lack information. They struggle because three things are quietly running their life in the background — and they have never been named. This episode comes straight from a weekend where I had men travel from Portugal, Scotland, and Manchester to work together. Two days. Two very different groups. One theme: the same three blockers showing up in every single man's life. Inside this episode: •The 3 Blockers that prevent permanent, lifelong change — and why quick fixes never work •Blocker 1 — Toxic Habits: "just one more hour," withdrawing from your brotherhood, reacting with anger, skipping the gym, pressing snooze •Blocker 2 — Outdated Beliefs: "I must do everything myself," "my worth is tied to my output," "vulnerability is weakness" •Blocker 3 — False Narratives: "this is just the way I am," "I'll focus on my family once the business is safe," "I don't have time" •Why you are the antivirus and the toxic habits are the virus — and how to start catching them •Why changing these three things is a 6 to 12 month job, not a weekend fix •The morning routine as your primary weapon for priming your mind before the world wakes up •Why slowing down is the thing that will grow your business, your life, and your family — not speeding up •The 30-minute weekly planning session that puts you back in control of your time, energy, and focus •How to catch a negative narrative in real time, ask if it is true, and move on You are not stuck because you do not know what to do. You are stuck because these three things are running on autopilot. Start catching them. Start changing them.

Today, I am delighted to welcome Emily Sadri, a board-certified women's health nurse practitioner and certified nurse-midwife, also trained in functional medicine. Emily is the founder of Aurelia Health, a private women's health practice in the Van Aken district of Shaker Heights, Ohio, offering telehealth services specializing in hormone therapy and weight-loss support for women ages 35 to 55. As a leading hormone expert, she has built her practice around a hormones-first approach. In today's conversation, Emily explains the differences between being a nurse practitioner and a midwife, and we discuss nurse practitioner training, scope of practice, professional support, anticipatory guidance, and the limitations of conventional midlife care. Emily also shares why she prioritizes precision-oriented, personalized care, the value of Mira monitoring for precision hormone replacement therapy management in perimenopause, key hormonal changes she sees in early perimenopause, the impact of cyclic, static, and physiologic dosing of HRT, the influence of progestin IUDs, trends in healthcare, and less common reasons why women in midlife tend to become weight loss resistant. Stay tuned for an insightful conversation on hormones, precision care, and supporting women through perimenopause and midlife. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How women's health nurse practitioner training differs from midwifery, and how midwifery shaped Emily's professional philosophy and ethics Why women need to take ownership of their health throughout every life stage The importance of moving beyond treating symptoms by using comprehensive lab work to identify broader hormonal and metabolic patterns The value of using Mira, an at-home hormone monitoring system, to follow hormone patterns throughout an entire menstrual cycle, rather than relying on isolated laboratory measurements Why Emily believes in looking at hormone patterns rather than progesterone decline or isolated estrogen levels when making hormone replacement therapy decisions How static, cyclic, and physiologic HRT differ, and why Emily believes physiologic dosing deserves greater consideration. Why treating hormones in isolation often fails to address the bigger picture, particularly during perimenopause The importance of women being fully informed when considering hormonal birth control and intrauterine devices Factors beyond sarcopenia, nutrition, sleep, and stress that could contribute to weight loss resistance Bio: Emily Sadri Emily Sadri is a Board Certified Women's Health Nurse Practitioner, Certified Nurse Midwife, and hormone expert who founded Aurelia Health, a modern concierge telehealth company that serves women navigating perimenopause and menopause. Emily's areas of expertise include metabolic health, precision hormone care, and longevity medicine. Her mission is to advance comprehensive care in midlife, create a model that fills in the gaps where primary care is failing women, and to recenter care around the relationship AS the medicine. She resides in the Midwest with her husband, four children, and two dogs. Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website.

This episode of Cattle Chat focuses on practical management strategies for improving profitability in cow-calf operations, driven largely by listener questions. A major topic centers on how to add value to cull cows, emphasizing that even though calf sales make up most revenue, cull cow income is still significant. Experts discuss options like breeding open cows before sale, combining them into a single group, or simply adding weight through grazing or feeding to improve market value. Timing decisions based on forage availability and market conditions are highlighted as key to maximizing returns. The conversation then shifts to grazing management, particularly the differences between cool-season and warm-season grasses. While rotational grazing has well-documented benefits in cool-season systems, research shows less consistent improvement in native warm-season pastures. Factors like lower rainfall, reduced fertilizer response, and greater plant diversity may explain why responses differ. Speakers note that successful grazing management of warm-season systems often requires more flexibility and observation, blending science with practical “art.” Strategies like deferred rotation—changing grazing timing across pastures—may support long-term grass health, even if immediate livestock gains are less obvious. Overall, the discussion emphasizes tailoring decisions to each operation, using observation, records, and adaptability to balance forage productivity, animal performance, and economic outcomes.

Why do mosquitoes seem to love some people and completely ignore others? It isn't your imagination. Researchers have identified several factors that make certain people especially attractive to mosquitoes—and some of them are things you have little control over. https://theweek.com/articles/462191/5-things-that-make-irresistible-mosquitoes Most of us believe we make rational decisions when we shop. But behavioral scientists have discovered that many purchasing decisions are influenced by factors we barely notice. The way a product is described, where it is placed, how many alternatives are offered, what price is shown first, and even seemingly irrelevant details can dramatically affect what we buy. Richard Shotton has spent years studying the hidden psychological forces that shape consumer behavior. In this conversation, he explains why our choices are often less objective than we think, how marketers use these insights to influence us, and what you can do to become a smarter consumer. Richard is a behavioral scientist and author of The Illusion of Choice: 16½ Psychological Biases That Influence What We Buy (https://amzn.to/3q2Vne9). Ice seems so ordinary that it's easy to forget what a miracle it once was. Today, ice is available instantly at the push of a button. But not that long ago, obtaining ice was a massive undertaking involving dangerous harvests, international shipping routes, fortunes made and lost, and an industry that helped reshape the modern world. In fact, long before electric refrigeration existed, people were cutting huge blocks of ice from frozen lakes and transporting them thousands of miles. How did this unlikely commodity transform the way we eat, drink, preserve food, and live? Amy Brady, executive director of Orion magazine and author of Ice: From Mixed Drinks to Skating Rinks—A Cool History of a Hot Commodity (https://amzn.to/3MKX7Rc), reveals the remarkable story behind something most of us never think twice about. Finding a green potato chip in the bag can be a little unsettling. Is it safe to eat? And what about those unusually dark brown chips that occasionally show up? The answers have everything to do with how potatoes grow, how they're stored, and what happens before they ever become chips. https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/30746/whats-those-green-potato-chips-you-sometimes-find PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS POCKET HOSE: For a limited time, when you purchase a new Pocket Hose Ballistic, you'll get a FREE 360 degree rotating pocket pivot and a FREE thumb drive nozzle!

In this episode a group of students and patrons join me to reflect on the recent Venus-Jupiter conjunction in Cancer, and to share stories of how it manifested in our lives based on which of the twelve houses it was transiting in their birth charts. The episode opens with a brief introduction where I talk about the importance of taking into account both the entire range of the sign-based conjunction or copresence between Venus and Jupiter, which lasted from May 18 until June 13, as well as the more intense range of the degree-based conjunction which went exact on June 9. After that I interview several people about their experience of the conjunction, looking at how it functioned in various houses alongside examples of notable public figures who also experienced this transit.

Declan Walsh, the acclaimed New York Times Africa correspondent, visited the hot zone of the Ebola outbreak in Ituri Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) from May 22 to June 12, the "perfect petri dish." How to explain the "enormous lag" in acknowledging the outbreak and responding to it? "It all boils down to two factors, conflict and gold." Will the outbreak grow exponentially or burn out? Insecurity will dominate, but it is not at all certain how that is to be managed. Things have begun to go better in expanding testing and treatment capacities, while contact tracing lags, at just over 50%. There are worries that the outbreak is spreading already from Ituri into North Kivu province, potentially into areas controlled by the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), the Uganda-origin Islamist armed group. Interest is rising inexorably in seeking a cease-fire, given the acute vulnerability of health and emergency assistance providers. The United States is now coming in strong with over $700m in investments, but on a parallel track, separate from the incident management mechanism run by WHO and the Africa CDC, which is stirring some tensions with Congolese authorities. The U.S. effort to create a treatment unit on a remote air base in Kenya has generated considerable protests and political challenges for Kenyan President Ruto.
0:00 - The Milwaukee Bucks finally traded Giannis to the Heat for a HUGE haul. None of these whispers from Shams. It finally happened. What's the temperature in Milwaukee this morning?

How do we offload contracts and stay under the aprons, taxes, etc.?The Rockies Rockie'd for 8 straight innings, then walked off the Red Sox on a TRIPLE in the bottom of the 9th. Say what you will about this squad, but they're sure fun to watch.33:10 - It takes a lot of different factors to win in the NFL year after year. Some of those factors are in your control. Most aren't. Even if the Broncos "run it back," there's no guarantee they'll win 14 games and make the AFC Championship again.

You invested time and resources into staff training and development, but your team still isn't applying what they learned. Why? Many nonprofit leaders focus heavily on what employees need to learn and how they should learn it. While those elements are essential, they're only part of the equation.In this episode of Learning for Good, I'm exploring why even well-designed training programs often fail to create lasting behavior change. True success happens when training translates into consistent action on the job. I'm sharing five overlooked factors that determine whether learning becomes performance improvement or simply another forgotten workshop.▶️ Why Your Nonprofit Training Isn't Working: 5 Factors Preventing Workplace Behavior Change▶️ Key Points:00:00:00 Why Great Training Doesn't Always Lead to Action00:05:07 5 Factors Preventing Behavior Change00:14:12 Designing Training That Drives Lasting Behavior ChangeResources from this episode:Join the Learning for Good Summit in July: https://collective.skillmastersmarket.com/invitation?code=9A6625 Join the Nonprofit Learning and Development Collective: https://www.skillmastersmarket.com/nonprofit-learning-and-development-collectiveConnect with HeatherLinkedIn: Heather BurrightWebsite: skillmastersmarket.comBook an interest call with Heather here.⭐Was this episode helpful?

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with David Panter, founder and CEO of RadiantXO, for a conversation that cuts through one of the most talked-about—and misunderstood—areas of modern skincare: regenerative science. As exosomes and extracellular vesicles continue to dominate industry conversations, this episode explores what these technologies actually are, why they matter, and how consumers can separate scientific substance from marketing noise.At the center of the discussion is cellular communication. David explains how extracellular vesicles function as biological messengers, carrying signals between cells that help coordinate repair, regeneration, and tissue maintenance. While exosomes have become a popular buzzword across beauty and aesthetics, the conversation reveals that not all products in the category are created equal. Factors such as sourcing, donor selection, purification methods, and manufacturing standards can dramatically influence the quality and biological integrity of the final product.The episode also highlights a critical shift occurring in skincare. Rather than focusing solely on correcting visible concerns, regenerative approaches aim to support the biological processes that help skin maintain resilience over time. This perspective treats skin as a living, dynamic organ rather than a surface to be managed, bringing aesthetics closer to the principles of regenerative medicine.Throughout the discussion, David advocates for greater scientific transparency and consumer education. As biologically derived technologies become more common, understanding how products are sourced, tested, and validated becomes just as important as understanding the ingredients themselves.Listen to the full episode to hear David Panter explain the science behind exosomes, extracellular vesicles, and how RadiantXO is approaching the future of regenerative skincare through a lens of scientific rigor and biological precision.Shop RadiantXODon't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!Support the show
Have you ever wondered if you ended a relationship too soon?In this week's episode, I share the story of a woman who found herself trapped in a cycle that many of us know all too well. After a breakup, she couldn't shake the feeling that she might be walking away from something good. So when the door cracked open again, she stepped right back through it.What happened next revealed a pattern I've seen repeatedly over two decades of coaching: a subtle dynamic that keeps people stuck in relationships long after they've stopped feeling truly fulfilled.The challenge is that these situations rarely involve obvious villains. There's often no betrayal, no dramatic conflict, but just a quiet tension that leaves you questioning yourself and wondering what the right decision really is.In the episode, I break down the hidden mistake that causes so many people to stay stuck and share a simple framework to think about your own situation with greater clarity. ---►► Transform Your Life in 2 Powerful Days.
