Olivia Fox Cabane: The Charisma Myth Olivia Fox Cabane is one of the world's leading authorities on the science of charisma and the bestselling author of The Charisma Myth, which has been translated into 27 languages. Previously Director of Innovative Leadership for Stanford StartX, Olivia has lectured on charisma, leadership, and innovation at Harvard, Yale, MIT, the Marine War College and the United Nations. She has been featured in The New York Times, The Economist, and The Wall Street Journal and has recently released the revised version of The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism (Amazon, Bookshop)*. Charisma. We all notice leaders who've got it. Many of us wish we had more of it. Good news though – like so many leadership skills we talk about on this podcast, you can get better at it. In this conversation, Olivia and I explore how almost anyone can improve their charisma. Key Points Charisma is a skill that you can learn and practice. While some people have natural strengths for charisma more so than others, people are not simply born charismatic. Many just start young. You don't have to be naturally outgoing. You can be a very charismatic introvert. Presence + Power + Warmth = Charisma Power is the “Can you move mountains for me?” question. Warmth is the “Would you want to move them for me?” question. Presence is the “Are you aware of which mountains I need moved?” question. A small amount of improvement can make a big difference on how you are perceived. Three quick tips to improve your charisma: Lower the intonation of your voice at the end of your sentences. Reduce how quickly and how often you nod. Pause for two full seconds before you speak.

Episode Description:This is a From the Archive episode with Arianna Huffington.Arianna Huffington returns to the show for a conversation about sleep, success, reinvention, and the cultural delusion that burnout is the price of achievement.James begins by asking practical sleep questions: Is nine hours too much? Can sleep be split into two four-hour blocks? Arianna explains that for most people, seven to nine hours is the real range, and that sleep should leave a person fully recharged, not limping through the day waiting for a second shift of rest.From there, James rewinds to Arianna's career. Before The Huffington Post, before Thrive Global, before The Sleep Revolution, Arianna had already spent decades writing, appearing on television, entering politics, changing positions, and reinventing herself. She credits her mother with giving her the belief that failure was not the opposite of success, but a stepping stone toward it.One of the central stories is Arianna's second book being rejected by 36 publishers. Out of money and unsure whether she should remain a writer, she walked into a bank in London and asked for a loan. The manager gave it to her. That small act kept her on the path.James and Arianna then talk about The Huffington Post: its rough launch, brutal early reviews, the team behind it, the importance of creating a platform, and the thrill of giving unknown people a chance to be heard. Arianna tells one of her favorite stories about a homeless teenager whose writing on HuffPost helped lead to Harvard discovering him.The conversation then turns to the 2007 collapse that changed Arianna's relationship with sleep. Arianna says the problem was not just personal overwork. It was a collective belief that sleep deprivation is required for success. But James pushes her on the personal side too, and Arianna acknowledges perfectionism: building a company, raising daughters, trying to be a perfect mother, and working through the night after college-tour days with her daughter.Arianna's answer is not a rigid sleep doctrine. It is a series of small steps. Build a transition. Remove devices from the bedroom. Lower the lights. Take a bath or shower. Read a physical book. Use gratitude as the closing scene of the day. If you wake up at 3 a.m., meditate instead of spiraling.The episode closes with joy. For Arianna, sleep is not only about health and productivity. It is about being present enough to experience life while it is happening.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode. References to Arianna's role at The Huffington Post, HuffPost's size and global expansion, her contract, sleep resources, and digital products reflect the original recording period.This episode discusses sleep, medication, insomnia, health, and wellbeing. It should not be treated as medical advice. Anyone dealing with chronic insomnia, sleep medication dependence, depression, narcolepsy, or other health concerns should speak with a qualified clinician.What You'll Learn:Why Arianna says sleep deprivation is not a requirement for achievement.How her 2007 collapse changed her view of success, productivity, and wellbeing.Why most people need seven to nine hours of sleep.Why she sees failure as a stepping stone, not the opposite of success.How her mother shaped her courage, optimism, and relationship to fear.Why The Huffington Post was built as both a journalistic enterprise and a platform for voices.How brutal early reviews tested the HuffPost team.Why Arianna believes teams matter most during hard times.How perfectionism contributed to her burnout.Why sleep affects health, productivity, decision-making, creativity, and joy.Why dreams matter for memory, insight, and new ideas.How to start a sleep transition with small microsteps.Why removing devices from the bedroom is one of the first practical changes.How gratitude can become the “closing scene” of the day.Why waking up in the middle of the night is not the problem—the stress spiral is.How meditation can help turn middle-of-the-night waking into rest.Why being exhausted makes people miss the moment.Timestamped Chapters:[03:02] Arianna Huffington ReturnsJames introduces Arianna and The Sleep Revolution, and they start with the practical question of how much sleep is enough.[03:51] Can You Split Sleep Into Two Blocks?James asks about sleeping four hours in the afternoon and four at night; Arianna explains why waking up fully recharged matters.[05:16] The Secret Origins of Arianna HuffingtonJames moves from sleep to Arianna's long career of writing, media, politics, public life, and reinvention.[06:20] Failure as a Stepping StoneArianna credits her mother with teaching her to aim high and see failure as part of the path.[08:06] Rejected by 36 PublishersArianna remembers running out of money in London, walking into Barclays Bank, and receiving the loan that helped her stay a writer.[09:52] The Huffington Post BeginsArianna explains HuffPost as both a journalism operation and a platform for known and unknown voices.[11:28] The Magic of the InternetArianna tells the story of a homeless teenager whose HuffPost piece helped bring him to Harvard's attention.[11:48] When the Launch Reviews Were BrutalJames asks whether Arianna ever worried HuffPost would fail, and she remembers harsh early criticism.[12:42] Everything Is Rigged in Your FavorArianna describes the spiritual belief that helped her move through fear, uncertainty, and dark periods.[13:18] Moving Continents After HeartbreakArianna explains how leaving a relationship in London led to her life in America, her daughters, her career, and The Huffington Post.[14:19] Life After Selling HuffPostJames asks how Arianna's life changed after the sale, and she explains why the company still felt new because it kept evolving.[15:20] The Collapse That Changed EverythingArianna connects her 2007 collapse from exhaustion to the wellness work that eventually became The Sleep Revolution.[16:32] The Collective Delusion About SleepArianna explains why modern culture wrongly treats sleep deprivation as essential to achievement.[18:02] Perfectionism, Work, and MotherhoodJames pushes on the personal side of Arianna's burnout, and she identifies the pressure to be perfect at work and at home.[20:16] Why Sleep MattersArianna lays out the benefits of sleep across health, productivity, decision-making, creativity, and emotional life.[21:53] What the Brain Does While We SleepArianna explains why sleep is not passive downtime, but a period of active cleanup and restoration.[23:21] Sleep and ProductivityArianna argues that sacrificing sleep for work backfires because it reduces judgment, creativity, engagement, and performance.[25:08] Sleep as a Performance EnhancerJames brings up willpower and negotiation, and Arianna adds the example of athletes using sleep to improve performance.[26:49] First Understand the CrisisArianna explains why people need to change their minds about sleep before they can change their habits.[27:30] Dreams, Memory, and InsightArianna talks about dreams and recommends writing them down when you wake up.[28:32] Sleeping Pills and Better AlternativesJames asks about medication, and Arianna points to behavioral approaches and sleep preparation.[29:50] The Sleep TransitionArianna explains the importance of beginning somewhere, even with just five or ten minutes.[30:57] Escort Your Devices Out of the BedroomArianna recommends turning off phones, laptops, and tablets before bed and creating a clean boundary between day and sleep.[31:24] Bath, Books, Temperature, and GratitudeArianna describes her wind-down routine: water, dedicated sleep clothes, lower lights, a cool room, physical books, and three things she is grateful for.[33:42] The 3 A.M.

Host Todd Conklin chats with Harvard's Amy Edmondson about psychological safety, learning from failure, and how leaders can create workplaces where people speak up and learn. They cover just culture, systems thinking, and practical steps to choose curiosity over certainty. This warm, wide-ranging conversation blends research with real-world stories and leaves listeners with a clear call to action: build environments that support candid dialogue and collective learning.

This week we're revisiting an episode from last year with Harvard historian and sociologist Dr. Rebecca Lemov, author of The Instability of Truth: Brainwashing, Mind Control, and Hyper-Persuasion.What if you could be persuaded to confess to a crime you didn't commit—or believe that an identity was manufactured for you? Dr. Lemov explores how the manipulation of belief has shaped modern society from Cold War psychology to today's social media. Mayim and Jonathan discuss the case of Leonard Kyle, who claimed the government implanted devices in his brain… and turns out, it was true! They deep dive into the psychological transformation of Patty Hearst and why her brainwashing defense was rejected and how government experiments like MK-Ultra still influence policy today.Plus, understand the rise of hyper-persuasion in the digital age and how social media can manipulate your emotions by harvesting your trauma using targeted algorithms. Learn how to spot the signs of mind control in abusive relationships and why false confessions are more common than you'd think.Whether you're a fan of cults, psychology, digital ethics or government conspiracy theories, this episode is a mind-bending journey into how belief, identity, and freedom have been transformed in ways we barely recognize.Go to https://helixsleep.com/breakdown to receive up to 30% off your Helix mattress.Visit https://drinkag1.com/BREAKDOWN and get a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler and a FREE bottle of Vitamin D3 + K2 in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription order.Get your annual IANDS Conference tickets at https://conference.iands.org.Go to https://tidd.ly/4uVltMe and use the code MAYIM50 to get $50 off your Elastique order.Follow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Dr. Karen Litzy is joined by Dr. Pedro Teixeira, Vice President of AI Engineering at Prompt Health and former co-founder and CEO of Prediction Health, for a practical conversation about how AI fits into healthcare workflows. Pedro breaks down the differences among automation, AI, and agentic systems and explains why the best tools support clinicians rather than replace their judgment. This episode focuses on what clinic owners and clinicians should look for when evaluating AI tools: workflow fit, safety, latency, cost, and whether the system improves over time. If you want a grounded, non-hype conversation about AI in healthcare, this is a useful one. Key topics ·       In this episode, Karen and Pedro compare thoughtful AI vs powerful AI and why workflow fit matters as much as model capability. ·       Pedro explains latency in practical terms, including why perceived delay matters and how feedback like loading states can make AI feel faster. ·       They unpack tokens, model size, and cost, including why input and output usage can change pricing so quickly. ·       Pedro shares how AI can work in the background across notes, codes, compliance checks, and analytics for clinic owners. ·       The conversation covers HIPAA, PHI, encryption, sandboxing, and limited tool access as essential safeguards for healthcare AI. ·       Pedro distinguishes automation, AI, and agentic systems, with examples of when rules are enough and when messy data really does call for AI. ·       They compare predictive vs generative models and explain why generating plausible text is not the same as forecasting a clinical outcome. ·       Karen and Pedro discuss how some clinics are using AI as a decision support tool, while still keeping humans in control of final decisions. ·       Pedro emphasizes that clinic owners should think in terms of systems, including what happens when AI works well and when it fails. ·       He closes with a simple evaluation question for any AI pitch: How does this system get better over time? Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction and why Pedro Teixeira is a grounded voice on AI in healthcare 01:24 - Why thoughtful AI matters more than powerful AI 03:57 - What latency means and why perceived speed changes the user experience 05:16 - How models work with transcripts, prompts, and tokens 07:24 - What tokens are and why AI bills can rise fast 09:13 - The real cost of large models, GPUs, and background processing 11:23 - How AI can quietly support clinic analytics and business coaching 13:13 - Why healthcare AI must stay closed loop and HIPAA safe 15:13 - Automation vs AI vs agentic systems 18:59 - Predictive vs generative models explained for clinic owners 21:45 - When AI can predict patterns from clinician notes and when it cannot 24:03 - How power user clinics are using AI tools in practice 25:56 - Why AI should do what clinicians decide, not decide for them 28:37 - Designing AI around systems, workflows, and failure states 30:22 - Using SOPs and training docs to think through AI implementation 31:57 - How clinic owners should evaluate whether to bring AI into the practice 35:53 - The one question to ask any AI vendor: how does it improve over time? 37:00 - Final takeaways and encouraging clinics to experiment 38:02 - Lightning round: overhyped AI tools in healthcare 39:20 - What clinicians should understand about how AI really works 40:50 - What Pedro would do if he were not building healthcare AI 41:41 - Real world learning, messy data, and why experience matters 42:59 - Pedro's health habits and the AI built tracker on his watch 44:15 - Where to find Pedro and Prompt Health Notable quotes "Thoughtful AI is really taking into account where are people using it, how does it fit into their day to day?" "The best systems are the ones where you are deciding." "How does this system get better?" Resources & Links: ·      Prompt Health ·      Pedro on LinkedIn More About Dr. Pedro Teixeira: Pedro Teixeira, MD, PhD, is Vice President of AI Engineering at Prompt Health and previously served as Co-Founder and CEO of PredictionHealth, now a Prompt Health company. With nearly two decades of experience across AI and healthcare and PhD-level training in biomedical informatics from Harvard and Vanderbilt, Pedro is one of the most grounded voices on AI in healthcare. He believes healthcare's biggest challenges are systems problems, not technology problems, and that the real promise of AI is creating leverage so clinicians can spend more time on what matters most: their patients.

Why does caring feel so exhausting right now?Tony Nader breaks down why so much of what drains us was never actually caring, it was carrying someone else's pain, outcome, or opinion as if it were our own. This conversation goes beyond compassion fatigue advice into the actual mechanism your nervous system uses to confuse a stranger's problem with your own life. Nader also walks through a real-time way to tell, in the moment, which one you're actually doing.What you'll learn:• Why caring and carrying feel the same but aren't• Your nervous system can't tell news from your life• The 10-second test that reveals when you're carryingTony Nader is a Harvard and MIT-trained physician and the successor to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, leading Transcendental Meditation organizations worldwide. His empirical research on the nervous system has been published widely, and his new book, The Power of Caring, applies decades of that research to a simple question: why sustainable caring depends on regulation, not willpower.Find Tony's book “The Power of Caring” and all links at: mindlove.com/467Want to practice caring without carrying, with people who actually get it?

The system that produces the world's most important discoveries runs on metrics that nobody agrees on, odds that would stop most people, and mentorship that sometimes looks like cruelty in blue ink. Subscribe if you want science with evidence, not speculation. Lipomi is Professor and Chair of Chemical and Sustainability Engineering at the University of Rochester and the author of Science Nonfiction: Behind the Scenes in University Research. His lab works on organic electronics, materials science, recyclable polymers, and the science of human touch. He trained under George Whitesides at Harvard, one of the most cited chemists who has never won the Nobel Prize. The conversation covers the H-index, what elite mentorship actually looks like when your advisor writes “This is illiterate” in blue ink on your outline, and what the future of academic research versus industry careers looks like in an era of AI, demographic headwinds, and graduate school debt that can't be discharged in bankruptcy. We also get into homochirality, OLED displays, and why Lipomi thinks the nanotechnology revolution already happened, we just didn't call it that. What you'll hear: -Whether the academic system is designed to produce scientists or to filter them out -What is Baumol's cost disease and why it explains rising tuition costs -Why the nanotechnology revolution already happened and nobody called it that -How nanotechnology is used in cancer drug delivery today versus what science fiction promised -What it actually takes to build a PhD career at the intersection of chemistry, mechanics, and neuroscience -Whether engineering students should be reading Plato — and what countries that skip it are getting right “Find a skill at the intersection of three or more interests that no one else is working on.” — Darren Lipomi CHAPTERS 00:00 He says don't go to college.

DR1THINGS WE MISSEDNERDY ESG STUFFL3Harris ousts CEO after investigation into conduct CARESL3Harris Technologies, the company that overhauled a Qatari plane now used as Air Force One, has replaced Christopher Kubasik as chairman and chief executive after an investigation determined he violated the defense contractor's code of conduct.Kubasik's alleged conduct didn't involve and has no impact on the Melbourne, Fla., company's financial reporting, controls, customer relationships or operational performance, L3Harris said Monday.The company didn't give details on when it received a report of the potential violation. With the aid of independent counsel, the board determined that Kubasik's removal would be in the company's best interest, L3Harris said. He will be allowed to retain and exercise some previously vested stock options but won't receive severance payments, benefits or accelerated stock-based awards.L3Harris Technologies Appoints Sam Mehta, Proven Aerospace and Defense Executive, as President and Chief Executive Officer“The Board determined that the Executive engaged in conduct that was not consistent with the values of the Company as outlined in its Code of Conduct.”Kubasik will still hold onto some of his options that can net him stock worth about $23 million, as well as more than 200,000 shares of stock in L3Harris that he already owns, valued at nearly $57 million. L3Harris has paid Kubasik compensation valued at $66.3 million during the past three years, including $25.6 million in fiscal 2025.The separation disclosure says the L3Harris board decided to reach a deal with Kubasik to get him to leave rather than trying to fire him for cause. Kubasik did not admit to any violation of the company code of conduct, and the deal expressively forbids any of the parties or their representatives from making public statements “inconsistent” with Monday's disclosure.Harvard reveals $2.2 billion SpaceX holding worth more than half its U.S. equity portfolio CARESBusting CEO Pay Curve in 2025, Musk Made Annual Salary of Average Tesla Worker Every 4.2 SecondsS&P 500 CEO pay jumps to record as Musk-inspired compensation plans spread: average S&P 500 CEO pay reached $340.1 millionUS SEC to keep hands off shareholder proposals, worrying activists CARESStaying Alive: ISS Continues Its Influence on 2026 Voting OutcomesISS recommended against fewer say-on-pay proposals than last year: 8.3% versus 9.2% in 2025.ISS supported fewer E&S proposals than in prior years, but investor votes more strongly tracked its recommendations.

Dr. David Perlmutter — neurologist, New York Times bestselling author, and author of the new book Brain Defenders — joins Dr. Will Cole to reveal what he believes is the most important breakthrough in brain health science in decades: the microglial cell. He explains why the amyloid hypothesis that has dominated Alzheimer's research (and pharmaceutical spending) for 30 years has been definitively disproven by a Cochrane analysis, why a Harvard lifestyle study arrested Alzheimer's decline in 70% of patients without any drug, and what the April 2024 NEJM GLP-1 Parkinson's trial means for the future of neurodegenerative disease. They also cover the practical daily habits, foods, supplements, and lab tests that shift the brain's immune cells from destructive to protective — and why you are far more the architect of your brain's destiny than anyone has told you.

In part 2 of this conversation, Harvard psychologist Dr. Ellen Langer explains why “chronic” doesn't mean permanent and shares a simple, science-backed mindfulness practice that has helped people with MS, stroke, Parkinson's, and chronic pain see real improvement. This episode picks up right where part 1 left off, so start there if you haven't listened yet. Dr. Langer breaks down what it means to learn something mindfully instead of absolutely, why judging yourself and everyone around you keeps you stuck, and why the years running together aren't always a bad thing. She also gets personal about turning 40, what she's doing to stay sharp, and why she believes life gets better as you get older.   What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why learning a rule "absolutely" instead of "conditionally" traps you in beliefs that don't fit your life The two-question mindfulness practice shown to reduce chronic pain, MS, stroke, and Parkinson's symptoms Why every negative judgment you make about yourself has an equally true, more generous version How to use AI as a tool without losing your own agency (and the surprising 45-year-old research behind it) Why Dr. Langer believes the goal isn't more years in your life, but more life in your years   Timestamps: (00:00) – Welcome back for part 2 with Dr. Ellen Langer (00:26) – Why investing in your mindset matters beyond just you (00:44) – Learning mindfully vs. mindlessly, and why the rule-writer's perspective matters (01:37) – The tennis racket story: why "the way you do it" isn't the only way (03:01) – The bell that should go off every time you're judgmental (03:47) – Why every judgment has an equally strong, opposite version (05:41) – Why the years blurring together isn't only a sign of aging (06:00) – Stop counting years, start adding life to them (08:00) – "Sticks and stones" had it backwards (09:33) – The label "chronic" and what it really means (10:05) – The two-question exercise that reduced chronic symptoms in real studies (11:59) – How to try the exercise yourself, step by step (13:38) – AI as a tool: the brilliant graduate student metaphor (14:03) – The 45-year-old research on self-induced dependence (17:28) – What Ellen wishes women understood about getting older (20:07) – What Ellen does to stay sharp and creative   Links to great things we discussed:  The Mindful Body Function Health Uplift App Join me on Substack: Wise Woman Method Alli on YouTube Join me for the 90 Day Reset – Build Your Best Fall   I hope you loved this episode!

In 1997, Miss USA won Miss Universe with one perfectly judged answer. She revealed just enough to charm, but not enough to shock. Harvard professor Leslie John says that's scientifically proven to persuade. Her research shows revealers are more likeable, more hireable, and even more dateable. In this episode, she shares why oversharing beats staying guarded, why privacy promises make us shy, and how putting fears into words can cure phobias. --- ​​Become an FSB member: https://get.fsb.org.uk/nudge/ Unlock the Nudge Vaults: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/vaults Leslie's book Revealing: https://amzn.to/3RkFTAq  Leslie's website: https://www.proflesliejohn.com/  Join 12,199 readers of the Nudge Newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew/  --- Today's sources:  Huang, K., Yeomans, M., Brooks, A.

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles explore Donald Trump's increasingly intense fixations, from his relentless campaign to put his name on the Kennedy Center to his insistence that the Navy return to outdated technology, and what these obsessions reveal about how the president operates. They also examine Trump's unusual ability to turn defeat and humiliation into fuel, his growing reliance on Truth Social to communicate and make money, the damage his administration is doing to institutions like Harvard and the Kennedy Center, and the looming political stakes of a surprisingly competitive Texas Senate race. #ad Start your free trial today at https://shopify.com/dailybeast Learn more about your ad choices.

Age is just a number. We say it all the time. Do we actually believe it?This week I sit down with Dr. Arnold Gilberg, MD, PhD — a psychiatrist with over 60 years of clinical experience and author of The Myth of Aging. Sixty years. Let that sink in for a second. He has watched mental health care go from something people hid to something people post about. And he has spent just as long studying what actually keeps people vital as they get older, and it is not what most of us assume.We get into what a psychiatrist actually is (and how that's different from a psychologist or a therapist), why the shame around therapy has mostly disappeared since the 1960s but hasn't fully left medicine itself, and why he'd argue we're over-medicating a problem that often needs connection more than a prescription. Then we go somewhere I did not expect, his own path to becoming a rabbi, and what spirituality has taught him about the mind that medicine alone couldn't.If you've ever felt "stuck," or assumed decline was just the deal you signed up for by getting older — this one's for you.Dr. Arnold Gilberg, MD, PhD, is a psychiatrist with more than six decades of clinical experience and the author of The Myth of Aging. Over the course of his career he has treated patients through massive shifts in how our culture understands mental health — from the stigma of the mid-20th century to today's very different, more open landscape. He is also a rabbi, a path that grew out of his clinical work and shapes how he thinks about meaning, purpose, and healing. The Myth of Aging bookWhat We CoverPsychiatry vs. psychology vs. therapy. What a psychiatrist actually does, how that role differs from a psychologist or therapist, and why the lines have blurred (and shifted) as the field has evolved.From shame to normal. How therapy went from something you hid to something you casually mention at dinner — and why stigma still lingers inside the medical community itself, even as it's faded in the culture at large.The culture of medication. Dr. Gilbert doesn't hold back on this one — the over-reliance on medication, what gets missed when a prescription replaces psychotherapy, and why informed consent about side effects matters more than most patients realize.Body and mind are not separate systems. Why physical activity is one of the most underused tools in mental health care, and how movement changes the brain, not just the body.Becoming a rabbi. Dr. Gilbert's own journey into spirituality, and how faith and religion show up as legitimate tools for emotional and mental well-being — not as an alternative to psychiatry, but alongside it.Cultural shifts, real clinical impact. How broader acceptance of diverse sexualities and identities has changed what shows up in the therapy room and how mental health providers practice.Connection is the treatment. Why trust between patient and therapist predicts outcomes more than technique — and what that means for how we should be evaluating "good" therapy.The myth of aging, dismantled. Aging does not have to mean decline. Investment in physical, mental, and social health changes the trajectory — and it's never too late to start.Midlife crisis, reframed. What's actually happening during a midlife crisis, and why it can be the opening for real change instead of just a cliché to laugh off.Mindset changes your biology. The Harvard research on mindset and lifespan — and what it tells us about how much of "aging" is happening in our heads before it happens in our bodies.Getting unstuck. Practical ways to turn a feeling of stagnation into an actual growth opportunity.Community, movement, purpose. The three pillars Dr. Gilbert keeps coming back to for aging well — and why none of them are optional.Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who needs it.

Jeremy Pauley's basement discovery exposed a nationwide human remains trafficking network involving stolen body parts, an Arkansas mortuary, and the morgue at Harvard Medical School. In Part 1 of The Body Trade, we follow the investigation from Pauley to Candace Chapman Scott, Matthew Lampi, Katrina Maclean, Joshua Taylor, Denise Lodge, and Harvard morgue manager Cedric Lodge, uncovering how donated human remains were stolen, bought, sold, and shipped across the country, and how the investigation ultimately led to federal convictions.Watch the full episode on YouTube:▶ https://bit.ly/TheoriesOfTheThirdKindYTSupport the show + unlock bonus episodes:

This week we're breaking down a 75-year Harvard study that found the biggest predictor of a successful adult by age 25 wasn't grades, test scores, or extracurriculars, it was whether they did chores starting at age three or four. We get into why that is, plus three rules for making chores actually work in your house (hint: don't pay for them). We also share an easy first-date hack from Logan Ury (whose new Netflix show, The Later Daters, we mentioned last week): ditch the small talk and jump straight into the middle of a story instead. It works for any nerve-wracking new-people situation, not just dates. Plus, a simple nightly ritual called C.A.P. (Celebrate, Appreciate, Prioritize) to close out your day, a few decluttering tips for a clearer mind, and some sentences that we can't stop thinking about. Oh, and we finally watched "A Toxic Love Story" after all our talk about it, and we have thoughts. Get some Feeling Things merch by clicking HERE!

We're in a really strange moment in the foreign policy politics of the Democratic Party. People are looking for an alternative vision — an approach to American power in the world that would feel more moral and just, after the failures of President Biden, and the wrecking ball President Trump has taken to international rules and norms. The answer many on the left are coming to is powerfully simple: international law. America could just start following the rules that we helped write. Is that possible? Is that enough? What would that even look like? To talk through these questions, I invited Linda Kinstler on the show. She's a member of the Society of Fellows at Harvard, a contributing writer at The New York Times Magazine, and the author of “Come to This Court and Cry: How the Holocaust Ends.” She's done some incredible writing and reporting on whether what we're watching is the death of international law. In this conversation, we talk about the Biden administration's failures to live up to the principles it set for itself, the Trump administration's campaign to destroy the International Criminal Court and what it would take to reinvigorate international law.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Sara Gottfried, M.D., a Harvard-trained, board-certified gynecologist and expert in female hormone health. We discuss the key biomarkers women should track at each stage of life and how cortisol, thyroid hormone, estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone shape energy, mood, metabolism, and long-term disease risk. We also discuss PCOS, the risks and benefits of oral contraceptives, and the shift in brain metabolism that begins in perimenopause. Dr. Gottfried explains actionable tools for hormone and micronutrient testing, nutrition, stress management, and cardiometabolic screening that women can use at any age.
