Physicians face higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide risk than the general population, yet most never seek mental health care. In this episode, Dr. Jesse Ehrenfeld, professor of anesthesiology at the Medical College of Wisconsin and Global Chief Medical Officer for AIDOC, discusses new JAMA research examining why. The conversation looks at how medical culture, stigma, time constraints and concerns about confidentiality or professional consequences can keep physicians from getting help, even when effective treatment exists.

There are not enough therapists in America. And even when you can find one, it is hard to schedule an appointment. This is the case despite the fact that America also has a rising mental health crisis. More people are aware of their mental health needs, and more people are coming to need mental health support. At the Ruderman Family Foundation, this is one of our tentpole issues, and we strive to facilitate changes in our communities that will provide better and healthier futures for those struggling with mental health. That is why I'm so excited to be joined today by Phillip Schermer. Phillip is the founder of Project Healthy Minds,  a non-profit startup building the world's first digital mental health marketplace to democratize access to life-changing services, partnering with public figures to de-stigmatize mental health, and creating the first national standards for businesses to better support employee mental health. Phillip and Jay discuss AI in the therapy space, the social and economic barriers standing between people and quality mental health care, and the stunning power of celebrity honesty around mental health struggles.

In celebration of Black History Month and Heart Health Month, we're re-airing our powerful conversation with Dr. Gabrielle Williams, founder of Gateway Direct Health in Georgia. Dr. Williams shares her inspiring journey from severe burnout in fee-for-service medicine where she dreaded waking up each morning to discovering Direct Primary Care as her "second chance into medicine." As the first person in her family to attend college, she went on to become a board-certified family physician who now practices medicine on her own terms. In this episode, Dr. Williams candidly discusses the personal and spiritual growth required in that crucial first year of entrepreneurship, the importance of healing from healthcare trauma, and why her patients, even those with insurance, choose her practice for the irreplaceable value of time, trust, and a genuine doctor-patient relationship. Her story embodies the resilience and possibility that emerges when physicians of color build sustainable, community-rooted practices, and serves as both inspiration and practical guidance for anyone considering the DPC path.Learn how Zion HealthShare can pair with DPC to protect patients and physicians without returning to traditional insurance.

The Tenpenny Files – Healthcare decisions are quietly shifting away from doctors and patients into administrative systems that control approval, cost, and access. Twila Brase explains how insurer dominance, Medicare changes, and federal policy now determine when care moves forward. As delays increase and choices narrow, Americans discover too late that medical judgment has been replaced by bureaucratic control...

For 50 years, the healthcare industry has been trying (and failing) to harness the power of artificial intelligence. It may finally be ready for prime time.

The 4% rule has a major flaw: it doesn't account for healthcare costs. If you're planning to retire early, health insurance premiums will rise sharply as you age—from your 30s through your 60s before Medicare kicks in at 65. This isn't speculation; it's how the U.S. healthcare system works under the ACA. On this episode of the BiggerPockets Money podcast, Mindy Jensen and Scott Trench break down why early retirees need a bigger financial buffer than traditional FIRE calculations suggest. Learn the real cost of healthcare in early retirement, strategies to reduce expenses (geographical arbitrage, health shares, catastrophic coverage), why you can't rely on ACA subsidies long-term, and how to build a healthcare plan that won't derail your path to financial independence.

Dr. Sophocles' TED talk "What Happens to Sex in Midlife" has garnered over 1.2 million views in total and her forthcoming book, The Bedroom Gap, will be released February 10th. She is currently working on a documentary about Sex, Menopause, and Gender Equality called HOT! In this episode, Tara and Dr. Maria Sophocles unpack the bedroom gap by exploring how physiology, hormones, shame, religion, porn culture, relationship dynamics, and communication issues all interact to block women's libido and pleasure, while offering practical strategies like self-pleasure, better sex education, hormone support, and intentional intimacy to rebuild desire and connection at any age.  RESOURCES: Learn more about Dr. Sophocles here: https://mariasophoclesmd.com Her viral TED talk with 1.2M+ views: https://www.ted.com/talks/maria_sophocles_what_happens_to_sex_in_midlife_a_look_at_the_bedroom_gap?language=en  Instagram: @mariasophoclesmd Pre-order her book The Bedroom Gap on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/48X1XYk  Watch her previous podcast episode on Inside Out Health Podcast: https://www.taragarrison.com/blog/drsophocles  Get 15% off Peluva minimalist shoe with coupon code COACHTARA here: http://peluva.com/coachtara CHAPTERS: 00:00 Intro 00:05:05 – An open, no‑holding‑back conversation about sex, libido, and midlife.
 00:07:00 – How most young people get their "sex education" from porn because adults and schools avoid real conversations about sex and pleasure.
 00:08:17 – Dr. Sophocles debunks the Hollywood myth that women typically orgasm easily from penetrative sex alone and explains how misleading this is.
 00:09:11 – 70–90% of women need clitoral stimulation to orgasm and how shame and unrealistic expectations make many feel "broken."
 00:11:02 – The concept of the "bedroom gap": Viagra and support for male performance versus lack of equivalent attention to women's sexual needs.
 00:12:18 – Dr. Sophocles explains that orgasm releases endorphins, dopamine, and oxytocin and argues that being sexually active can be part of a longevity plan.
 00:20:00 – Practical advice to treat sex and intimacy like a non‑negotiable appointment, starting with G‑rated cuddling and rebuilding erotic connection gradually.

Episode summary Computer-science-turned-cognitive-science researcher and yoga therapist Chen Or Bach joins Amy to share a candid journey from academia to cancer survivorship, from mat-based practice to living yoga moment-to-moment. We trace how the pañca-kośa model reframed her healing, why standards and accreditation helped yoga integrate into Israeli healthcare, and what it means to let go of familiar tools and still remain fully in the path. It's a forward-looking conversation about bringing steadiness (sthira) and sweetness (sukha) into real life—mountain trails, laundry folding, and all.Listen forNature as practice: Boulder's mountains as living teachers of stability in change.Pañca-kośa in plain life: tending annamaya, prāṇamaya, manomaya, vijñānamaya, and especially ānandamaya—not as theory but daily design.When the practice stops “working”: giving yourself permission to let go of certain tools (āsana, set routines) and allow yoga to become how you meet each moment.Healthcare integration: how Israel's modular 1,000-hour training (500 teacher + 500 therapy with specialty tracks) supported hospital uptake.Karma yoga without burnout: serving the field while protecting one's vitality (tapas with svādhyāya and īśvara-praṇidhāna—Kriyā Yoga in action).Key takeawaysĀnanda is not optional. Many of us optimize the outer layers (food, steps) and starve ānandamaya kośa. Intentionally design joy-creating activities; the outer layers flourish downstream.Your practice can change shape. If a tool stops serving, it's not failure—it's viveka (discernment). Let the aim (clarity, compassion, steadiness) stay constant while methods evolve.Standards serve people. Thoughtful accreditation isn't bureaucracy—it's ahimsā and satya for clients and health systems: clear scope, reliable skills, safer care.Karma yoga needs boundaries. Service without self-regulation fuels burnout. Pair tapas with rest, supervision, and community—abhyāsa with vairāgya.Practical micro-practices (try today)Joy audit (5 min): List three ordinary tasks. For each, name one sensory element you can savor (temperature of water while washing dishes, sound of leaves on a walk).Kośa check-in (2 min): Ask: What does my body/energy/mind/wisdom/joy need right now? Choose one small step.Walk as yoga (10–20 min): No metrics. Attend to breath cadence, ground contact, and horizon/sky—let attention, breath, and body cohere.Resources mentionedPātañjala Yoga Sūtra (as study companion during illness)Bhagavadgītā (as a source of resilience and meaning)IAYT-inspired standards and Israel's modular specialty pathways (trauma, oncology, etc.)About our guest — Chen Or Bach Chen Or Bach blends cognitive/neuroscience training with decades of yoga practice and service. In Israel, she helped advance standards that enabled yoga and yoga therapy to integrate into mainstream healthcare, including rehabilitation settings (e.g., TBI). Now based in Boulder, she continues to teach, mentor, and model a life where all life is yoga.Pull quotes“Once your attention, breath, and body are in the same place, the game changes.”“If one tool stops serving you, the tradition still has a thousand doors.”“I stopped ‘doing' yoga and started being it—moment by moment.”“Standards aren't red tape; they're how we protect people.”School of Integrative Health at NDMU: https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-healthMaster of Science in Yoga Therapy at NDMU https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy  Explore NDMU's Post-Master's Certificate in Therapeutic Yoga Practices, designed specifically for licensed healthcare professionals.  https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy/post-masters-certificate-in-therapeutic-yoga-practices Try our Post-Bac Ayurveda Certification Program at NDMU: https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/ayurveda/post-baccalaureate-ayurveda-certification#IntegrativeHealth #HealthcareEducation #InterprofessionalEducation #GraduateSchool #NDMUproud #SOIHproud #SOIHYoga #SOIHAyurveda #NDMUYoga #NDMUAyurveda #SOIHGraduateSchool

The Future of Healthcare: From 10-Minute Appointments to Whole-Body Healing What if healthcare gave you time to tell your whole story? In this episode of the Gutology Podcast, Julia is joined by Dr Andy Sigers and Dr Priya Barner, founders of Mosaic Medical, to explore a different way of working with chronic and complex health conditions. After years as NHS GPs, the Mosaic team noticed a familiar pattern: patients cycling through appointments, referrals, and prescriptions without anyone stepping back to ask what might be driving the pattern underneath. Functional medicine offered a broader lens: not a rejection of conventional care, but an expansion of it. Together, we explore: Why chronic illness is rarely about one system — or one diagnosis How gut health, hormones, immunity, pain, fatigue, and mood are deeply connected The role of stress, trauma, and nervous system regulation in physical symptoms Why medication doesn't need to be “all or nothing” How root-cause medicine builds understanding, not just labels Why healing is a process, not a protocol Navigating health information, AI, and testing without overwhelm A recurring message throughout the conversation is simple but powerful: symptoms are signals. When we learn how to interpret them- rather than silence them- real change becomes possible. If you've ever felt stuck in a loop of “normal results” but ongoing symptoms, this episode offers insight, validation, and a grounded sense of hope.

From famous actors and pop stars to the legions of social media influencers with millions of views, it seems almost everyone has something to say about the best ways to boost our health and wellbeing. But is this trend leading to many of us bypassing traditional sources of health advice and care such as GP practices and government health services and instead turning to the Internet, social media and private online pharmacies to seek out information, diagnoses, and, in some cases, even prescription medicines? In this episode, we're joined by Deborah Cohen, an award-winning medical broadcaster and author to talk about her latest book, Bad Influence – How the Internet Hijacked Our Health. She tells us how the COVID 19 pandemic kickstarted a worldwide boom in consumer healthcare that shows no sign of stopping, why celebrities and social media stars hold so much influence over important decisions that can hugely impact our lives, and points out some of the red flags we can look out for when searching for health advice online.

Most importantly, what's the deal with the increasing potency of cannabis?Each guest has their own perspective, Andrew sees it as a natural reaction from CPG brands to power users, Ford points to “flyover” operators unconcerned with long-term health of the industry, while Socrates refers to moonshine drinking during the prohibition to say that regulations create these problems.Speaking of moonshine, alcohol consumption is dropping dramatically among Gen-Z, with many pointing to cannabis consumption as a substitute. Some perceive cannabis as healthier and lacking caloric nature of alcohol, which could explain why there are now more daily smokers than daily drinkers!Timestamps:(0:00) Guest Introductions for the Cannabis Roundtable!(2:50) Why Jason invested in Sparkplug(6:44) How Ford Smith got into Cannabis investing — is it Cannabis a good investment?(11:40) Gusto - Check out the online payroll and benefits experts with software built specifically for small business and startups.

Independent medical practice is under siege, according to Rep. Greg Murphy (R-NC). Murphy, a practicing physician for over 30 years, joins the Rundown to discuss the "explosion" of insurance claim denials and the "destruction of medicine" caused by what he calls vertical integration and the corporate takeover of healthcare. He breaks down the GOP's plan to restore marketplace competition, the debate over Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies, and why he believes the current system prioritizes corporate profit over medical necessity. TikTok is set to remain in the U.S. following a deal granting American entities majority ownership, ending the immediate threat of a nationwide ban. But does this restructuring resolve concerns over data privacy and the safety of young users? Cybersecurity expert John Cofrancesco joins to discuss whether the deal addresses the national security risks that sparked the ban, the legal battles over social media addiction, and the race to outpace China in artificial intelligence.

Healthcare innovator Neal Shah joins me to unpack how artificial intelligence is being used against patients—and how it can be used to fight back.Most conversations about AI in healthcare focus on efficiency, cost savings, or shiny tools. This episode goes deeper. Neal Shah and I examine how insurers have quietly weaponized AI to deny care at scale—and why patients are losing not because they're wrong, but because the system is asymmetrically stacked against them.Neal shares how caregiving for his grandfather with dementia and his wife through years of cancer exposed the realities of denial letters, administrative friction, and time-based exhaustion. We explore how claim denials jumped from 1.2% to nearly 20% nationwide, why most patients never appeal, and how insurers exploit the fact that appeals take hours while denials take seconds.From there, we dig into how AI—trained on successful appeals, billing codes, medical research, and insurer coverage policies—can flip that imbalance. Not by gaming the system, but by restoring access to evidence, speed, and leverage for people who don't have legal teams or financial backstops.The conversation widens into elder care, end-of-life costs, administrative bloat, and why healthcare outcomes don't justify 20% of U.S. GDP. This isn't an anti-technology episode. It's a clear-eyed look at incentives, power, and how tools can either centralize control—or return it to individuals.The lesson isn't blind optimism about AI. It's discernment: knowing where technology helps, where regulation lags, and how ordinary people can protect themselves inside systems that weren't designed for fairness.TL;DR* Insurers now programmatically deny ~20% of claims—up from 1.2% fifteen years ago* 99% of denied patients never appeal, despite high reversal rates* Of those who appeal, ~40% win; with AI support, success jumps to ~73%* Most denials stem from billing errors or weak documentation—not medical necessity* State insurance regulators provide external review boards most patients don't know exist* AI can restore speed and evidence access—but doesn't fix broken incentives alone* Healthcare costs are driven by administrative bloat, not clinical care* Elder care is optimized for real estate returns, not human outcomes* The real crisis isn't technology—it's confusion, exhaustion, and lack of agencyMemorable Lines* “A denial letter is the shadow of a gun.”* “Insurers deny care in seconds—patients are expected to respond in hours.”* “Most people lose not because they're wrong, but because they're tired.”* “AI didn't break healthcare—it just exposed where power already lived.”* “Care is relational, but the system is designed to prevent relationships.”GuestNeal Shah — Healthcare innovator, author, and caregiver advocateFounder of Counterforce Health and Carriya, focused on patient empowerment, insurance accountability, and improving elder care through technology and workforce redesign.

In this episode, Dr. Farzad Mostashari, co-founder and CEO of Aledade, discusses how value-based care finally makes prevention profitable by rewarding primary care for keeping patients healthy rather than treating avoidable disease. He reflects on his path from public health and federal EHR leadership to building a nationwide platform that partners with independent practices to take total-cost-of-care contracts. Dr. Mostashari covers why fee-for-service warped EHRs into billing tools, how accountable care models reversed that logic, and why culture, long-term thinking, and technology at scale matter. He shares results from thousands of practices achieving higher blood-pressure control by focusing on stroke prevention, explains the economics of Medicare Shared Savings and expanding private contracts, and explores how AI can deliver just-in-time insights across hundreds of EHRs without forcing workflow change.  Tune in and learn how aligning incentives, primary care, and AI can deliver better outcomes at lower cost!

During today's episode, Sharon shared the remarkable journey of her company, including how it raised $3.8 million in funding and acquired a groundbreaking stroke rehabilitation startup, Imago Rehab.Sharon explained that their success stems from a commitment to creating solutions that improve lives. “It's about really making connections and growing community with like-minded people who understand mission-driven businesses that work for good as well as doing good,” she said. This philosophy helped Health Care Originals achieve groundbreaking milestones, including closing a $1.1 million Reg CF round and securing significant venture capital investments.The acquisition of Imago Rehab exemplifies Sharon's vision. The startup, which develops robotic gloves for stroke rehabilitation using Harvard-developed technology, aligns perfectly with Health Care Originals' mission to deliver tech-enabled healthcare solutions. “We saw in Imago Rehab the kinds of therapies my grandma needed after her stroke. It resonated deeply with me,” Sharon said. The deal, she explained, was also about ensuring the technology reached those who need it most, a value shared by the company's lead investors.Sharon also highlighted how their impact extends to respiratory health. Shortly after winning the SuperCrowdLA awards, Health Care Originals became the exclusive respiratory care provider for a health coalition representing 400,000 lives. The company's ability to integrate proprietary hardware, AI, and specialized therapy continues to drive growth and innovation.For those inspired by mission-driven entrepreneurship, Sharon's story provides a roadmap. By combining purpose and perseverance, Health Care Originals isn't just a company—it's a movement. If you're interested in supporting their journey, consider exploring their offerings or participating in their crowdfunding efforts.tl;dr:Health Care Originals raised $3.8 million, including $1.1 million through a crowdfunding campaign.The company acquired Imago Rehab, a startup developing robotic gloves for stroke rehabilitation.Sharon outlined how mission-driven innovation drives their impact-focused healthcare solutions.Sharon's superpower, resilience, has been key to overcoming challenges and driving the company forward.Health Care Originals integrates AI, hardware, and therapy to deliver transformative healthcare solutions.How to Develop Resilience As a SuperpowerSharon describes her superpower as resilience—her ability to persevere and overcome challenges without giving up. Reflecting on this trait, she shared, “What has become evident to me over the last year is that I don't give up.” Sharon's unyielding determination has been pivotal in navigating the hurdles of leading a startup, from raising capital to acquiring and integrating other businesses. Her ability to stay focused and committed to her mission, even in the face of adversity, defines her approach to entrepreneurship.One powerful example of Sharon's resilience came from her first job as the only female engineer in a 50-year-old, failing factory with outdated equipment. Despite the challenges, she worked tirelessly to restore operations, eventually increasing production by 33%. The validation of her efforts came from the factory's furnace designer, who recognized her unique understanding of the process and her unwavering commitment to improvement.To develop resilience, Sharon suggests finding a clear purpose and staying passionate about what drives you. She explains, “If you find something you're sure you want to do and it makes you happy, it helps you to not give up.” She also emphasizes the importance of staying grounded and resisting the urge to let past experiences cloud your judgment.By following Sharon's example and advice, you can make resilience a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

How does breakthrough brain science become real treatment for patients? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Daniela Tropea, Associate Professor of Molecular Psychiatry at Trinity College Dublin, to explore how cutting-edge neuroscience research is being translated into life-changing therapies for mental health and neurodevelopmental disorders. As the leader of Trinity's Translational Neuroscience Laboratory, Dr. Tropea has helped reshape our understanding of brain plasticity and growth factors — including her influential work on insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Her research directly contributed to the development of Trofinetide, the first FDA-approved treatment for Rett Syndrome, and continues to inspire new therapeutic possibilities for conditions like Fragile X and Phelan-McDermid Syndrome. In this conversation, we dive into: ·       How fundamental neuroscience discoveries turn into real-world treatments. ·       The future of personalized medicine in mental health care. ·       Why mentorship, diversity in research, and public outreach matter for scientific progress. ·       How brain plasticity research could change the way we treat complex disorders. Dr. Tropea is also a celebrated educator and international collaborator, recognized for innovation in teaching and mentorship — and for making complex science accessible to broader communities.

Dr. Charles Camosy joins Faith in Healthcare host Dr. Mike Chupp and co-host Dr. Brick Lantz for a conversation on faith, bioethics, and moral responsibility. A professor of moral theology and bioethics at The Catholic University of America, Dr. Camosy offers wisdom and clarity to some of the most challenging bioethical questions facing Christian healthcare professionals today. Together, they explore how clinicians can resist polarization, bridge divides, practice moral courage, and uphold human dignity, from the beginning of life to end-of-life care. This episode also examines how language matters, the call to intellectual solidarity, and how a gospel-shaped vision of the human person enables us to engage patients and colleagues with both conviction and compassion.

In September 1993, Ross Perot held a press conference on Capitol Hill. He was surrounded by members from both parties. The topic: the then-secretive and mysterious discharge petition: "Well, this is a great day for our country. I am certain that the framers of the Constitution and the signers of the Declaration of Independence are looking down from heaven smiling on this reform. For 63 years, there was a handful of leaders in the House of Representatives who decided the agenda, not the members of the House. This was an unlikely event to occur, but it did occur because of the leadership and the courage of the people who signed that petition." Soon after Ross Perot's 1993 press conference, the House of Representatives ended its 63- year-old tradition of secrecy surrounding discharge petitions. They became public.  And so did the list of members who signed them. And that changed everything. What is a discharge petition? How does it work? And in 2026, what does it have to do with health care… with members of Congress owning stocks .. and with Jeffrey Epstein? And -- how has the discharge petition changed politics in Congress – particularly when the Republican House majority is razor thin? Scott Wong Has Answers! … The NBC News senior congressional reporter joins C-SPAN's podcast "Extreme Mortman" …. Scott Wong explains how the discharge petition has become a game changer in Congress. So, if you have lots of questions about the discharge petition – but were afraid to ask – then listen to the latest episode of "Extreme Mortman" – with very special guest - Scott Wong of NBC News.
