Support the Institute today. https://givenow.nova.edu/the-institute-for-neuro-immune-medicine-inim-2025   In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Dr. Theoharis Theoharides, one of the world's leading authorities on mast cell biology and neuroimmunology, to reframe multiple chemical sensitivity as a measurable, physiological immune response rooted in mast cell activation. Dr. Theoharides explains how mast cells throughout the body and brain respond to environmental chemicals, stress hormones, fragrances, mold toxins, and other triggers by releasing hundreds of chemical mediators that can affect every organ system simultaneously. He outlines the specific labs and biomarkers worth requesting, why standard diagnostic pathways frequently miss this condition, and what patients can do right now to reduce mast cell reactivity through natural compounds, environmental modifications, and targeted testing. This is a conversation that gives patients the clinical language and tools they need to stop being dismissed and start getting answers. Tune in to Hope and Help For Fatigue and Chronic Illness.

In the latest episode of The Science of Personality, Ryne and Blake are joined by  Hogan's Managing Director of Asia Pacific, Krista Pederson, and Hogan Senior Consultant in the APAC region, Nicole Dickie, to discuss the findings of Hogan's Global Leadership Effectiveness Study. Anyone who uses Hogan's personality assessments or listens to this podcast knows that identifying effective leaders is at the core of what we do at Hogan. The study, which compares personality assessment data from over 21,000 executives in Hogan's global database with survey responses from nearly 10,000 full-time employees across more than 120 markets, revealed some really incredible insights, including a striking disconnect between the characteristics executives display and the qualities employees say define effective leadership. Krista and Nicole were two of the key people to get this study off the ground, and they join us in this episode to discuss the findings now that the results are in. The Leadership Divide: Global Insights on Who Leads vs. Who Should

In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy sits down with Dr. Theoharis Theoharides, one of the world's foremost experts on mast cell activation syndrome and neuroinflammation, to break down what brain fog actually is, what is driving it at the cellular level, and what can be done about it. Dr. Theoharides explains how the brain's own immune cells, known as microglia, can become destructive when triggered by viral particles, spike protein, mold, or other inflammatory agents. He details how COVID spike protein can enter the brain through the blood-brain barrier and the olfactory nerve, persist for up to two years, and activate a cascade of neuroinflammation that disrupts memory, cognition, and mood. He also shares the latest developments in diagnostic tools, including SPECT imaging and an emerging biosignature panel designed to finally give patients measurable, objective evidence of what is happening in their brains. He walks through the most evidence-backed interventions his team is using to protect and restore brain cell function, including folinic acid, luteolin-based flavonoids, and hydroxytyrosol from olive leaves, and why supplement quality matters more than most people realize. If you have been told your brain fog is all in your head, this episode is for you. Tune in to Fast Metabolism Matters.

Noticing the history and beauty around us can shift how we see ourselves—and our communities. An awe walk through Harlem reveals how the stories embedded in public spaces can spark connection, perspective, and a sense of what's possible.Summary: Cities are full of quiet moments of wonder—if we know how to notice them. In this episode of The Science of Happiness we explore the science of awe while taking an awe walk with students at City University of New York in Harlem. We learn  how everyday urban spaces can deepen our sense of connection, belonging, and curiosity. How To Do This Practice: Choose a familiar place: Pick a street, park, campus, or neighborhood you move through often—somewhere ordinary. Slow your pace: Walk more slowly than usual and give yourself permission to notice, rather than rush. Look for signs of story: Pay attention to buildings, names, textures, and small details that hint at history, culture, or the people who've been there before. Ask yourself: Who stood here before me? What happened here? What journeys passed through this space? Notice your response: Pause when something catches you—a feeling of wonder, curiosity, or even goosebumps—and stay with it for a moment. Reflect on connection: As you finish, consider how this place and the stories within it connect to your own life, sense of belonging, or what feels possible for you.

In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy sits down with Dr. Theoharis Theoharides — Professor of Clinical Immunology and Executive Director of the Center for Excellence in Neuroinflammation Research — to dig into a topic that's finally getting the attention it deserves: multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) and its deep connection to mast cell activation. Dr. Theoharides explains what actually happens in the immune system when the body is exposed to everyday chemicals — from perfume and jet fuel to formaldehyde in clothing and mycotoxins in food. He walks through the biology of mast cells, why stress dramatically lowers your chemical reaction threshold, and why so many patients go undiagnosed or are dismissed as "just sensitive." Haylie brings her own personal experience with chemical sensitivity and autoimmune disease to the conversation, making this one of the most candid and clinically rich discussions we've had on the show. Whether you've been told your symptoms are in your head, or you've quietly suspected that your environment is making you sick, this episode is for you. Tune in to Fast Metabolism Matters — and finally get the science to back up what your body has been telling you all along.   Dr. Theoharis Theoharides is a Professor, Vice Chair of Clinical Immunology, and Director at the Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine-Clearwater, an Adjunct Professor of Immunology at Tufts School of Medicine, where he was a Professor of Pharmacology and Internal Medicine, and also the  Director of Molecular Immunopharmacology & Drug Discovery, and Clinical Pharmacologist at the Massachusetts Drug Formulary Commission (1983-2022).

The Generosity of the Good Shepherd with Guest Dr. Sean WoodJohn 10:1-8In a world where leaders often take, Jesus reveals a Shepherd who gives. In John 10, Jesus describes a radically different kind of leadership. It is marked not by power or control, but by sacrificial love. The Good Shepherd lays down his life for the sheep, knows them by name, and leads them into life that overflows. What if Christian generosity does not begin with obligation, but with encounter? Join us this Sunday as we explore how Christian generosity flows from encountering the generous heart of the Good Shepherd.Sean Wood is currently serving as a Church Advisor for World Vision Canada. Sean brings over 20 years of pastoral experience serving some of Canada's most influential churches. He holds a Doctor of Ministry in Global Leadership from Bethel University, and a Master of Divinity from Tyndale University. He is passionate about life transformation and building a better world where every child can live life in all its fullness.For reflection & discussion:What stood out to you most from the sermon, and why?How does this message challenge or affirm your current understanding of God or faith?Was there a specific story, scripture, or phrase that you found especially meaningful or difficult?How can we live this out together in our daily lives or as a group?What is one step you feel invited to take this week in response to the sermon?

Pastoral ministry is both a sacred joy and a heavy burden. Kurt Fredrickson, Associate Dean for Professional Doctoral Programs at Fuller Seminary, discusses the struggles pastors face, how church leadership is shifting in a changing culture, and why creating life-giving congregational environments matters more than ever.THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Markus Watson introduces the episode by referencing the book That Their Work Will Be a Joy and asks why it needed to exist.Kurt Fredrickson describes how the book originated from pastors resonating deeply with the challenges and joys of ministry in a seminary lunch discussion.Ministry is tough and filled with conflicts on the outside and fears within, as reflected in Paul's writings.Despite challenges, pastors find joy in being gripped by God and walking with people through both the best and hardest moments of life.Markus Watson shares his personal experience of moving through seasons of fear and joy in ministry, appreciating moments of goodness and kindness in congregational life.Ministry leaders enter sacred spaces in people's lives, highlighting the privilege of bringing gospel and good news during life's milestones and struggles.The Doctor of Ministry program provides “fire for ministry” and “oxygen for your soul,” supporting pastors with new skills and spiritual renewal.The Doctor of Global Leadership degree equips marketplace leaders and executives to integrate faith with work by tackling practical ministry challenges in their workplace.Pastors face unique challenges, including constant 24/7 expectations from both themselves and their congregations, often making it difficult to “take off the uniform.”Kurt Fredrickson shares an honest story of vulnerability with another pastor, revealing the value of mutual support and truthful conversations.Cohort-based models in Doctor of Ministry programs foster deep relationships and provide safe spaces for pastors to remove their masks and find encouragement.Ministry flows from the inside out, and leaders must be in a healthy place themselves to minister well and avoid causing harm within congregational cultures.Every congregation possesses its own culture, shaped by leaders, and has the potential to be either kind and life-giving or toxic and harmful.Being vulnerable as a pastoral leader is necessary, but requires discernment, as oversharing can sometimes lead to painful repercussions.Kurt Fredrickson emphasizes that pastors ultimately seek internal growth and love within their congregations, and asks congregants to be kind as pastors strive to embody what they teach.RELEVANT RESOURCES AND LINKS:Kurt Fredrickson – kurtf@fuller.eduFuller Doctor of Ministry ProgramFuller Doctor of Global Leadership ProgramBooks mentioned:That Their Work Will Be a Joy, by Kurt Fredrickson and Cameron LeeRelated episodes:103.

In this episode, Molly Gamble, Vice President of Editorial at Becker's Healthcare, highlights the rise of oral GLP 1 treatments, key leadership changes at Cleveland Clinic London, and evolving hospital M and A trends shaping the healthcare landscape.

Consumer healthcare is entering a new phase where patients are no longer just looking for convenience. They are looking for affordability, transparency, and provider relationships that actually feel continuous and personalized. In this episode, Dr. Myra Ahmad, CEO of Mochi Health, discusses how her company is building a comprehensive care platform that goes well beyond GLP-1s and weight management. She explains how Mochi combines providers, pharmacies, and software infrastructure in a marketplace model that gives patients more treatment visibility, supports tailored care plans, and expands access to affordable medications with or without insurance. Dr. Ahmad also shares why price transparency matters more than ever as more patients move into high-deductible plans, how operational efficiency and AI can help keep care affordable, and why the next chapter of telehealth will belong to solutions that reduce friction while preserving the provider-patient relationship. Tune in and learn how consumer health platforms can make care more accessible, more transparent, and more aligned with what patients actually want.  About Myra Ahmad: Dr. Myra Ahmad is the CEO of Mochi Health, a telehealth and digital care platform focused on delivering personalized, accessible, and affordable care through certified providers. She earned her MD from the University of Washington School of Medicine and holds a bachelor's degree in biology from Wellesley College. Before leading Mochi Health, Dr. Ahmad built a strong background in research through roles at UCSF, the MIT Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research, and the MIT Sloan Fellows Program in Innovation and Global Leadership. Her experience spans clinical research, consumer behavior, and healthcare innovation, giving her a multidimensional perspective on how to expand access while improving the patient experience. Things You'll Learn: Patients increasingly want healthcare solutions that combine affordability, transparency, and continuity instead of forcing them through fragmented experiences. A marketplace model can give providers more flexibility to tailor treatment plans while giving patients more visibility into medication and pharmacy choices. Expanding beyond weight management became a natural step once both providers and patients began looking for broader, ongoing care relationships. Operational efficiency, automation, and AI can help healthcare companies reduce administrative costs without sacrificing access or affordability. The future of telehealth will likely favor solutions that make pricing clear and help patients understand exactly what they are paying for. Resources: Connect with and follow Myra Ahmad on LinkedIn.

6th Annual Global Leadership Conference 2026 hosted by Dr. Gigi Sabbat 

What does global leadership really mean? Is it simply about managing teams in different countries? Or is it something deeper; the ability to understand cultural nuance, adapt communication, and create an environment where people from very different contexts can contribute their best work? In this episode of Sticky From The Inside, Andy Goram speaks with global leadership coach Crispin Thompson, founder of The Leadership Studio. With more than 25 years of experience working in multinational organisations, Crispin shares what it really takes to lead effectively across cultures, time zones, and languages. From avoiding the tokenism trap in global teams to understanding why communication can easily be misinterpreted across cultures, this conversation explores the hidden complexities of leading internationally. Crispin explains why global leadership always starts with listening, how cultural intelligence helps leaders navigate nuance, and why the best leaders focus on creating environments where every voice genuinely matters. If your teams span borders, languages, and cultures, this episode offers practical insights into how leadership can truly travel. ----more---- Key Takeaways Global leadership starts with listening. Leading across cultures requires curiosity and humility. Listening helps leaders understand what's really happening inside teams and uncover barriers to honest feedback. Tokenism damages trust and contribution. When people feel they're included only for representation rather than merit, confidence and engagement disappear. Global leaders must ensure every voice genuinely matters. Communication across cultures needs intention. Even when teams share the same language, tone, nuance, and phrasing can create misunderstanding. Leaders must clarify intent and encourage dialogue. Cultural intelligence unlocks performance.

In this one-on-one conversation, I sit down with Liz Townsend, a senior partner at a global management consulting firm, Gallup-certified strengths coach, former VP of 24 Hour Fitness, former COO of MyFitFoods, and current board member of Junior Achievement of Southeast Texas. Liz has spent decades inside high-growth, high-pressure organizations, from small teams to billion-dollar brands helping leaders navigate the real challenges that don't show up on spreadsheets: mindset, communication breakdowns, unresolved conflict, cultural drift, and the personal cost of leadership. In this episode, we talk honestly about: Why company culture breaks long before the numbers do The leadership habits that quietly stall growth in small businesses How self-awareness and strengths-based leadership change the way teams perform The difference between managing people and actually leading them What strong leaders do differently when conflict shows up Why personal growth is not optional if you want to scale a business This conversation is for entrepreneurs, small business owners, executives, and team leaders who want to grow without burning out their people or themselves. It's practical, grounded, and rooted in real-world experience, not theory. If you're building something meaningful and feel the weight of leadership, this episode will help you gain clarity, reduce friction, and lead with more confidence and intention.

Drew Perkins welcomes Emily Waugh and Gabriela Delgado de Fina, both Assistant Heads of School for the A+ World Academy. They discuss the academy's unique educational model: a 10-month voyage for 72 students aboard the Sorlandet, a fully rigged ship built in 1927. The conversation explores the challenges and rewards of a "school at sea," where academics, communal living, and maritime training converge. Links & Resources Mentioned In This Episode Have some feedback you'd like to share? You can email me at drew@thoughtstretchers.org. If you enjoyed this episode, please share it and please leave a review on Apple Podcasts or wherever you're listening. Emily and Gabriela detail the academy's core philosophy and five goals for global leadership, which integrates academics with global studies, communal living, maritime training, and reflective learning. They share how students are required to participate in maritime watches, cleaning, and galley duties, fostering a deep sense of responsibility and grit. A mandatory course, "Self Systems and Society," serves as the anchor for these experiences, providing a space for students to reflect on conflict resolution and the unique challenges of sharing a living space with 72 peers. The discussion dives into the academy's current transition toward a more Project-Based Learning (PBL) curriculum. Gabriela and Emily candidly discuss the hurdles of implementing inquiry-based research, such as "Port Quests," in an environment with limited internet and library resources. They highlight the ongoing internal debate about balancing traditional knowledge acquisition with progressive skill development, illustrating what Drew calls a "knowledge-rich inquiry" model. Finally, they touch upon the essential nature of memorization in maritime life—where knowing the names and functions of hundreds of lines is a matter of safety—and the rigorous admissions process that seeks out curious students who are ready for the sacrifice and adventure of life at sea.

PREVIEW — Charles Ortel — Western Elites "Bought Off" to Promote China's Global Leadership. Ortel argues that Western academic and publishing elites have been systematically "bought off" through financial incentives and institutional compromises to promote China as the inevitable global leader and future geopolitical hegemon, despite the absence of credible and reliable economic data supporting this characterization. Ortel contends that Western institutions have strategically conceded leadership legitimacy to Beijing based on ideological conviction rather than empirical economic evidence. Ortel emphasizes that China has systematically demonstrated institutional incapacity to fulfill the complex requirements of global leadership, including transparent governance, rule-of-law institutional frameworks, and multi-stakeholder consensus-building necessary for sustainable hegemonic authority.

What happens when a 300-year-old law firm builds its future on client-led growth, global collaboration, and a culture that actually holds up across 29 offices?   Laura Cameron, Global Managing Partner of Pinsent Masons, shares how she won a contested election with a vision rooted in people, purpose, and progress. She explains why growth only works when clients lead the way, how culture becomes a selection tool, and why she tests every new hire for "chemistry" before skill. The conversation cuts through leadership theory to reveal what it really means to run a global firm, balancing expansion with consistency, and ambition with care.   Can a firm that old still move with agility? And how does a leader stay grounded while steering across continents and time zones? Laura answers both with candor, humor, and the kind of insight that makes longevity look anything but traditional.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Global Leadership at Pinsent Masons 02:47 Laura Cameron's Journey from Litigator to Managing Partner 10:14 Building a Unified Culture Across 29 Offices 14:02 The Future of Law: AI, Technology, and Private Capital 17:06 Leadership Advice for Aspiring Law Firm Partners 18:36 Geopolitical Risks and Global Operations 25:43 Why Pinsent Masons Is Expanding in China 27:13 The Future of the Legal Sector   Connect with Laura Cameron: Connect with Laura on LinkedIn Laura's Web Bio   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: Connect with Howard on LinkedIn Howard's Company Web Profile   Connect with Chris Batz: Connect with Chris on LinkedIn  Follow Columbus Street on LinkedIn Columbus Street Website  Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

In midlife, I see TONS of women who are “doing all the right things”—eating clean, exercising harder, even restricting more—yet still are seeing the scale creep up. That's why I've invited Sarah Kennedy on the podcast, who's the founder and CEO of Calocurb– a natural, non-prescription hunger control treatment option.  We're unpacking why hunger can feel louder and more relentless than ever for women in midlife. Sarah breaks down how shifting hormones, chronic stress, poor sleep, and dwindling bandwidth all fuel food noise, cravings, and that constant tug-of-war with your appetite.  You'll learn why willpower is not the problem—and why your biology deserves more compassion… not more restriction.  Most importantly, Sarah shares practical, science-backed ways to calm midlife cravings and support your changing metabolism with more ease. Tune in here and finally make a change that shows you results!  Sarah Kennedy Sarah Kennedy is the founder and CEO of Calocurb, a revolutionary weight-management product based in New Zealand. Calocurb now sells in five international markets and continues to grow rapidly. Sarah, formerly with Fonterra, held senior roles including Vice President International Farming in China and Managing Director of Dairy Nutrition and RD1 retail stores. Prior to joining Fonterra, she spent over 20 years in dietary and animal nutrition. A veterinarian by training, Sarah completed the Sloan Fellowship in Global Leadership and Innovation at MIT. IN THIS EPISODE How Calocurb can help curb your hunger, especially in midlife The physiology behind midlife hunger changes  How Calocurb works and why it's different than synthetic GLP-1s  The benefits of taking Calocurb in midlife  Taking Calocurb safely alongside HRT and other supplements   Dose timing and the best way to take Calocurb for results  Fitting Calocurb into a broader wellness routine for women  Get started with Calocurb with a 10% discount!  QUOTES “When you reduce your calories by 25%, your hunger actually doubles over four months. So the brain is telling you to go out and look for food, and your body thinks you are going into a famine. So it's upping and upping and upping… this is why 99% of diets fail.” “I've been on it 6-7 years now. I don't take it twice a day, only take it once. But I can honestly say to you, I'm at peace with food… I think many, many people will find that.” “This has been revolutionary in the fact that we now understand what is happening in our body and what is driving this hunger and craving.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Calocurb: USE CODE DRMARIZA for 10% off your purchase! https://www.calocurb.com/drmarizasnyder Order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Use code ENERGIZED and get 10% off on your MitoQ order https://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-101585564-17091761 Calcurb on Facebook Calocurb on Instagram RELATED EPISODES  #621: The Truth About Metabolic Health, Hormones and GLP-1s with Tyna Moore #558: The Science Behind Ozempic and Important Facts About GLP-1 Agonists + Hormone Replacement For Women 40+ with Dr. Tyna Moore #613: Effective Tools for Curbing Your Appetite in Midlife and Optimizing Your Blood Sugar with Nagina Sethi Abdullah #601: The Food You Eat Will Impact Your Menopause Journey + Foods to Ease Menopause and Promote Longevity with Dr. Federica Amati 696: Why Diets Stop Working in Midlife—and What Actually Helps Instead with Lara Frendjian
