They discuss the importance of authenticity, the role of anger in society, and the significance of personal growth. The conversation also touches on fitness and the unique experiences of being a stay-at-home dad, as well as the cultural commentary that arises from their respective experiences.(Experimenting with AI-generated show notes on this one.

Fitness, training, discipline and communication are core to good policing, but sleep underpins them all. Quality sleep sharpens judgment, reaction time and restraint while buffering stress and trauma. For officers working long shifts, odd hours and high-stress scenes, better sleep is a practical readiness tool — not a luxury. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, host Jim Dudley speaks with Dr. Leah Kaylor, an FBI clinical psychologist who provides trauma therapy and critical-incident debriefings. Kaylor's new book, “If Sleep Were a Drug: Why Sleep Is the Ultimate Advantage — No Prescription Required,” breaks down common sleep myths, explains how REM restores emotional balance and offers field-tested strategies officers can use tonight. The episode also tackles shift work realities, caffeine and alcohol traps, and when to seek help for sleep apnea.

"I haven't spent a lot of time breaking down and crying. Every time I've started to have a breakdown, I look at myself in the mirror and say, 'Stop, go about your day.' I know at some point I need to let those tears out, but I don't really have time, so I'm stuffing it all down." I'm fresh off my fifth round of chemotherapy, and am back on the couch recording with friends.

As we get older, have you ever wondered why the exercise advice we've been given doesn't seem to work as well as it once did? As we move into our 40s and beyond, our physiology changes in ways that can often feel confusing and frustrating. But what if we could harness those changes to feel stronger, healthier and more resilient than ever before? My guest this week is exercise physiologist and nutritional scientist, Dr Stacy Sims. Stacy is dedicated to helping active women – and the people who support them – take back control of their bodies, health and lives through science-based knowledge and practical tools. She is the author of two books, including ‘ROAR: How to Match Your Food and Fitness to Your Unique Female Physiology for Optimum Performance, Great Health, and a Strong, Lean Body for Life' and the creator of her signature course, Women Are Not Small Men, after recognising the lack of research specifically done on women in exercise, nutrition and medicine. In this conversation, we discuss: Why conventional fitness advice often fails women in midlife, and how we can move beyond outdated recommendations How hormonal changes during perimenopause affect everything from metabolism and muscle strength to mood and sleep The crucial role of resistance training in maintaining bone density, muscle mass and cognitive function as we get older Why high-intensity interval training can boost our metabolism, balance blood sugar and reduce harmful belly fat How the language around “muscle toning” can be unhelpful, and why lifting heavier weights is so important for building real strength and protecting our long-term health Practical ways to start strength training safely, even if you don't enjoy the gym, and simple strategies for fitting effective movement into a busy week with minimal time How building strength now supports our independence, resilience and vitality, helping us stay active, prevent injuries and feel confident as we age This conversation is an invitation for all of us to rethink what's possible as we grow older. Stacy's insights remind us that with the right information and support, we can build strength, confidence and better health at any stage of life. And if you find this episode helpful, why not share it with the women in your life – friends, family or colleagues – so they can feel empowered and informed about their bodies, too.

Can depression be healed without antidepressants? Josh Trent welcomes Pixie Acia, Spiritual Wellness Coach, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 771, to share how nutraceuticals helped her transition off 15 years of antidepressants, why trauma shows up in our bodies until we face it, and how breathwork, community, and cycle-breaking practices can unlock healing far beyond pharmaceuticals. Nutraceuticals from Altrient (LivOn Labs) In order to repair the structural damage caused by a continual barrage of toxic substances and pathogens, your body requires a constant supply of phospholipids. Whilst humans can synthesise some phospholipid compounds, others are sourced from food. Phospholipids that are obtained from the diet are called ‘essential phospholipids'. The liposomes used in Altrient products are made from essential phospholipids that include a high percentage of Phosphatidylcholine (PC). These liposomes not only provide optimum protection and transport, but they also satisfy the body's need for PC, omega-6 fatty acids, and choline. Now Altrient has taken the power of LET out of the laboratory and put it into your hands. It's why Altrient products are so effective. High-performance nutrients delivering enhanced absorption! Try it for yourself In This Episode, Pixie Acia Uncovers: [01:10] Nutraceuticals: Natural + More Efficient than Anti-Depressants The role of nutraceuticals in treating depression. Why Pixie spent 15 years on depression medications. How liposomal applications help us absorb 80-90% of nutrients from a supplement. Why nutraceuticals provide clarity and allow us to feel our emotions more than antidepressants. How nutraceuticals affect both the brain and the gut. Why depression is a combination of trauma and imbalances in the brain. We can't heal from depression with just one practice. Resources: Pixie Acia LivOn Labs (Altrient) [07:30] Does a Vegan Diet Cause More Harm than Good? How a vegan diet ruined Pixie's health. Why she attached her identity to being vegan and stopped listening to her body. How she switched to a carnivore diet to feel better. Resources: The Effects of Vegan Diet on Fetus and Maternal Health [12:50] The Gift in Traumatic Experiences Why we care about what other people think about us based on evolution. How trauma took Pixie's innocence and childhood. Why tattooing her body was a trauma response. How she channelled her trauma to help others. Why Pixie learned to detach from her body when she was abused. How forgiveness can help us let go. [19:10] Healed People Heal People How healed people heal other people. Why Pixie believes she went through her trauma for a reason. How her traumatic experience has helped her help others move through their trauma. [22:30] The Healing Power of Breathwork How breathwork helps us connect with our body. Why breathwork allowed Pixie to free herself from her traumatic sexual past. How breathwork can open us to new dimensions. Why we can get downloads from breathwork sessions. What led her to change her name from Amber to Pixie. [29:30] Why Do You Chase Dopamine? How the body is always looking for safety. Why Pixie attracted the same type of men until she healed her wounds. How chasing dopamine is a trauma response. Why Pixie created challenges to keep people accountable for their growth and getting healthy dopamine. It takes 62 days to create a new habit. [37:10] Becoming A Cycle Breaker Why Pixie found it hard to dance because of her sexual trauma. How expressing her sexuality made her feel like she would be taken advantage of. What pushed her to break the cycle. Resources: Michael Edward Johnson's Latch Theory The Body Keeps The Score by Bessel van der Kolk [43:50] The Value of Community Why community is the new currency. How human connection will become more valuable. What it means to be a safe container for others. How people come up against their projections and beliefs when they go to a retreat. Why when you let people see us, we become more lovable. [49:35] The Catalyst for Change What happened and why it happened doesn't truly matter. Why what we don't express shows up as depression or disease. How doing our own healing helps other people heal.

They help not just build the foundational blocks in the brain, but also in the gut, affecting the serotonin and giving you the essential support that it needs to not be depressed." — Pixie Acia "Your nervous system is looking for familiar situations to identify whether it's safe or not. When we're used to repressing it, we aren't listening to the body to know if we're safe or not. And then we'll end up finding ourselves in similar situations again." — Pixie Acia

We talk about why carbs aren't the enemy, how to actually approach blood sugar, and why cutting out entire food groups isn't the answer.

This episode might shake some foundations.Because we're diving into something almost no one talks about… But it might be the single most misunderstood and misused variable in your training.Rest. That's right. Rest periods.And no — I'm not talking about sleeping at night or taking a rest day. I'm talking about those 30 seconds... 60 seconds... 2 minutes... The space between your sets.Most people I coach — whether in my group fitness classes or one-on-one — they think just because they're lifting weights, they're doing strength training. But that's not how the body works.You can be holding a barbell and still not be strength training.What determines whether your training builds strength, muscle, endurance, or just gets you sweaty — Isn't the exercise. It's the stimulus. And REST is a major part of that stimulus.Resources:Brain.fm App(First month Free, then 20% off subscription)Discount Code: coachdamiensdCaldera Lab Skin Carewww.calderalab.comDiscount Code: CoachDLinks:IG:@coachdamien_sd@damienrayevans@livinthedream_podcast YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS6VuPgtVsdBpDj5oN3YQTgFB:https://www.facebook.com/coachdamienSD/

Aging is something we all share in common, yet it's often framed as decline rather than growth. In this first part of our conversation with Jennifer Jones of the Csomay Center for Gerontological Excellence and Angela Charsha-Harney, Associate Director of Fitness and founder of thinkJOY, we explore how reframing aging can transform health and community. Jennifer and Angela share the origins of their work, how personal connections spark powerful initiatives, and why joy is far more than a “nice to have” in public health. We dig into misconceptions about aging, the role of loneliness and connection, and why preparing for aging is really preparing for life itself. #publichealth #aging #joy #thinkjoy #csomaycenter #gerontology #connection #preparedness #personalhealth #mentalhealth

Risto is joined by Dr. Sean Fullerton from Towson University to discuss a recent article in JTPE that covers teachers acceptance and use of a fitness based software, specifically PLT4MHere is the full cite to the article:Fullerton, S.

In today's episode, host Pete Moore sits down with returning guest Jason Moore, CEO and founder of Spren (formerly Elite HRV.) Jason shares the journey of his company's cutting-edge technology, which transforms any smartphone into an advanced biomarker and body composition analysis tool. With over a million users and thousands of coaches trained, Spren's platform is accelerating how gyms, coaches, and fitness enthusiasts track results and stay motivated. Pete and Jason dive into the evolution of Spren's technology, lessons learned from the pandemic, and how partnerships with industry leaders like Fitness On Demand are reshaping the member experience across more than a thousand gyms. Jason also pulls back the curtain on the powerful data trends Spren has uncovered, including what truly drives lasting health changes among gym members—and why focusing on muscle may be the key to long-term success. Whether you're a club operator, coach, or just passionate about fitness technology, this episode is a candid look at where health and wellness measurement is headed, how to engage members both inside and outside the gym, and the grit it takes to keep innovating in the HALO sector. In discussions surrounding tech, there's always the question of data. On that Jason states, "Ultimately the member owns their data . . . that's how we think of it. Like you Pete, or whoever's listening, you own your own data, you can delete it all or take it with you. There's a big trend towards data portability." Key themes discussed Evolution of Spren's body composition technology. Integration with Fitness on Demand and gyms. Seamless, phone-based body measurement solutions. Learnings from SDK/API versus turnkey offerings. Role of data and biomarkers in fitness journeys. Member engagement and personalized coaching tools. Trends in gym programming and equipment preferences. 1. Spren's Technological Evolution: Spren has transitioned from a prototype-focused company to delivering a full-fledged, scalable product. Their tech uses just a phone camera to provide accurate body composition analysis comparable to a DEXA scan. Over the last two years, they've moved towards offering turnkey solutions that require no IT or development resources, making implementation easier for fitness operators of all sizes. 2. Strategic Partnerships & Expansion: Spren has formed partnerships with major fitness platforms like Fitness on Demand, enabling rollouts across over a thousand gyms. These collaborations let gyms effortlessly integrate body composition tracking and personalized coaching for members, meeting the growing demand for accountability and measurable wellness outcomes. 3. Market Learnings & Business Model Shift: Jason shared that initially, Spren focused on offering their technology as an SDK/API for other tech teams to integrate. However, long implementation timelines and the complexity of custom integrations led them to shift toward simple, self-contained solutions that appeal directly to operators and members—and the market has responded positively to this shift. 4. Holistic Data & User Experience: Spren not only tracks body fat and muscle composition but also integrates data from blood labs and wearables to provide a more comprehensive view of a member's health. The company emphasizes user privacy and data ownership, and keeps the member in control of their own data, with growing features for research and cross-platform health data portability. 5. Industry Trends and Actionable Insights: One of the biggest insights from Spren's dataset is that consistent gym-goers and those who work with qualified coaches show significantly better health outcomes. Also, members who focus on muscle building and preservation, not just fat loss, enjoy better long-term outcomes. Jason also noted a shift in club operators showing a greater willingness to pay for high-impact technology that enhances retention and member results, acknowledging that wellness tech can be an investment rather than just an expense.
