A Note from James:In the first two episodes with Dr. Nicole McNichols, we talked about chemistry, communication, anatomy, and the science of pleasure. This final episode is really about something deeper—how relationships evolve over time and what actually keeps desire alive.Because the truth is, long-term relationships don't stay exciting automatically. They require intention. They require curiosity. And sometimes the issue isn't your partner at all—it's that you've stopped doing things that light you up in your own life.We also talk about novelty, sex toys, aging, hormones, communication, and why pleasure itself is not optional for wellbeing—it's essential.This conversation tied everything together for me.Episode Description:How do couples keep desire alive years—or decades—into a relationship?In the final part of this series, Dr. Nicole McNichols explains why long-term passion isn't about constant novelty or dramatic reinvention. It's about intentional connection, personal growth, communication, and maintaining a sense of play.They discuss the “seven-year itch,” why boredom often comes from losing personal passion rather than losing attraction, and how seeing your partner energized by their own interests can reignite desire. The conversation also explores sex toys as collaborative tools, the health benefits of sexual activity, aging and sexuality, hormone therapy, and practical ways to communicate about sex without embarrassment.The episode closes with a powerful reminder: pleasure is not a luxury—it's a core component of wellbeing.What You'll Learn:Why boredom in relationships is often about your own life—not your partnerHow pursuing individual passions can increase attraction in long-term couplesWhy sex toys enhance connection rather than threaten itThe physical and psychological health benefits of sexual activityHow curiosity, humor, and vulnerability improve sexual communicationTimestamped Chapters:[00:02:00] Pleasure, Playfulness & Why Attraction Fades[00:03:28] The Seven-Year Itch & Long-Term Desire[00:04:00] Intention, Communication & Intimacy Dates[00:04:45] When Boredom Is About Your Own Life[00:05:25] Personal Passion & Seeing Your Partner Differently[00:06:11] The Best Sex of Your Life After Kids[00:08:16] Novelty Without Threatening the Relationship[00:09:24] Erotic Identity & Emotional Needs[00:11:00] Frequency of Novelty & Sexual Compatibility[00:11:21] Men Feeling Threatened by Novelty[00:11:42] Sex Toys as Collaborative Tools[00:13:26] The Pleasure Cycle: Wanting, Liking, Learning[00:14:12] Sex, Stress Reduction & Sleep[00:15:23] Health Benefits of Sex[00:16:08] Pleasure as Essential Wellbeing[00:19:00] Is Sex the Most Enjoyable Activity?[00:20:00] Presence, Mindfulness & Happiness Research[00:21:39] Sex and Meditation[00:22:00] Sex in Your 80s & Aging[00:23:22] Loneliness, Health & Sexual Function[00:24:25] Erectile Dysfunction & Physical Health[00:25:00] Menopause, Hormones & Sexual Pain[00:26:23] Hormone Therapy & Medical Guidance[00:27:35] Communication as the Core Skill[00:28:35] Leading With Curiosity[00:29:56] Humor, Playfulness & Awkward Conversations[00:31:08] Closing ThoughtsAdditional Resources:You Could Be Having Better SexNicole McNicholsDaniel Gilbert — Happiness research referencedSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today we are talking about the United Appliance Servicers Association and how GigCare is working for their members 1099/contract employees. Developed by Detego, the PSM Nebraska GigCare 1099 Worker Program is now helping associations in ways previously unavailable or cost prohibitive. Debbie Klintworth talks about how the United Appliance Servicers Association (UASA) has found GigCare to be the solution. John Kuhlmann explains the details that make the ACA/Obamacare overly expensive and difficult and why GigCare approaches health benefits in a way that is opposite of how the major carriers do it for health benefits and for drugs.

On this episode of Astonishing Healthcare, Judi Health's Mike Tate (VP, National Business Development) and Mark Pearce (Director, TPA Operations) join us in the studio to discuss the role of Third-Party Administrators (TPAs) in the self-funded employer market. As Mike explains, TPAs act as the "enforcers" of an employer's plan document, responsible for pulling everything together and ensuring claims accuracy, network access, and financial stewardship. Mark dives into the distinction between carrier-owned (ASO) and independent TPAs, explaining how independent models offer greater flexibility in plan design. And of course, they highlight a significant industry challenge: legacy technology. Many administrators rely on antiquated systems that limit customization and data visibility. In contrast, modern platforms empower plan sponsors to integrate point solutions effectively, customize networks for high-value care (e.g., through centers of excellence), and drive better member engagement. If you've ever asked yourself, "What does a TPA really do?" or "Should I look at different TPAs?" this episode will be worth your time to listen to.Ultimately, successful healthcare administration relies on managing "hundreds of little things" correctly for each benefit (Rx, medical, vision, and dental) - from provider payments to member support. That's how you create positive financial and clinical outcomes.

2025 was a wake-up call for business owners navigating employee health benefits. Premium increases hit harder than expected, and the traditional playbook for offering coverage showed clear signs of strain. It also became the year many businesses discovered a better way, one that restores cost control while giving employees greater choice and flexibility. That solution is the Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement (ICHRA).

Concluding our “New Year, More Me” theme, we are invited to ponder from a 3rd angle:What if better health were not an “added” thing to do, but a more strategic approach to the way we do it?”This week, I am chatting with Dr John La Puma, a medical doctor and trained chef, about the “Indoor Epidemic”, a topic he is bringing to life through his upcoming 8th book.John shares why most of us are indoors for about 93% of our time, and how repurposing just two to five hours a week of the time you already spend outside can shift sleep, stress, mood, focus and even appetite signals. Now, most of us ‘know' that lots of indoor time and artificially lit environments are bad for our health, or we've seen the alarming stats on a reel or research quote, but the action and change part? That's often harder and this show is here to change that. We cover simple ideas you can try right away and break down a daily, monthly, and annual framework to achieve incredible health results. The way we use our outdoor time more strategically will show us gains in sleep quality, focus, blood pressure and inflammation. If you feel tired, wired, or stuck on screens, this episode is a warm nudge to change up your outdoor time for the better and feel more like you.Pre-order John's new book - I've loved it. So easy and extremely empowering for anyone who finds the habits you ‘know' are better, but yet you can't quite seem to get things going.

This is the morning All Local update for January 23, 2026.

This episode of Astonishing Healthcare features three members of The Judi Group's leadership team: Jeff Hogan (Co-Founder & Managing Director), Chris Deacon (Director, Growth & Strategy), and Julie Selesnick (Director, Legal & Compliance). The Judi Group is a new venture - a premier advisory firm in healthcare on a mission to help companies evaluate the totality of their health vendors and contracts, deliver insights that lead to more responsible action, and ultimately improve the overall cost picture and health outcomes for their health plans and plan members, respectively. But why now? What steps can employer plan sponsors take to improve their contracting and access data? How do you set up a sustainable fiduciary process? For the answers to these and many more questions, like our guests' personal reasons for embarking on this journey, you'll have to listen in!HighlightsWe've reached a boiling point - everyone is tired of how the US healthcare system operates,, the misaligned incentives throughout the supply chain, and the unnecessary complexity of it all.There's a growing willingness among employers to challenge the status quo, embrace transparency, and create customized benefit plans that better serve their unique populations.Jeff is driven - in part - by his experience as a public servant, Julie tends to fight for the underdog, and Chris is inspired by the opportunity to make a tangible difference in healthcare.The RFP process must be redesigned for each employer, with their unique needs in mind.Access to claim-level data is critical if employers are to fulfill their fiduciary duties, make informed decisions, and ensure prudent use of employees' healthcare dollars.Related Content AH041 - ERISA Litigation Outlook and Meeting CAA Requirements: What Can Plan Fiduciaries Do?Health Benefits 101: The Importance of a Transparent PBM ModelReplay - Unifying Medical and Pharmacy Benefits: The Blueprint for Better Employee Health and WellnessJudi Health Policy Pulse: 2025 Regulatory Roundup, the Push for PBM ReformTo learn more about the Judi Group, the team, and its mission and services, please visit www.judi.group.For more information about Judi Health and this episode, please visit Judi Health - Insights.

Your gut microbes determine how foods affect your health, meaning identical diets produce very different outcomes on people depending on microbial enzymes, balance, and overall gut condition Large-scale research shows plant compounds require specific gut microbes for benefits, explaining why plant-heavy diets improve energy for some people yet trigger bloating, fatigue, or food reactions in others Gut dysbiosis reflects cumulative daily habits, not isolated meals, with ultraprocessed foods, irregular eating, poor sleep, stress, and medications consistently disrupting microbial stability and gut barrier integrity Sustained lifestyle changes over weeks to months restore healthier microbial activity, improve digestive comfort, reduce inflammation, and support whole-body regulation, especially in people with chronic metabolic or inflammatory issues Effective gut repair focuses on lowering linoleic acid (LA), gradually restoring carbohydrates, managing stress, improving sleep, and addressing environmental disruptors rather than relying on supplements or one-size-fits-all diet rules

Episode Description:This podcast explores GO2 Liquid Oxygen by breaking down what the product claims to be, how it's supposed to work, and whether oral “oxygen supplementation” makes sense from a physiological standpoint. The discussion contrasts liquid oxygen products with how the body actually absorbs and uses oxygen through respiration, examines the limited research on oxygenated water and performance, and separates plausible mechanisms from marketing language like “supercharged” or “instantly available oxygen.” It also covers who these products are marketed to, potential placebo or hydration effects, safety considerations, and how consumers should evaluate evidence and regulatory standards when faced with bold energy and recovery claims, ultimately aiming to give listeners a grounded, critical framework for assessing this category rather than a purely promotional take.Relevant Links:Get Liquid Oxygen Here: https://go2life.com.au/ Who Is Liquid Oxygen For:https://go2life.com.au/who-its-for/mioksi-revitalising-oxygen-mist/The Supplements Lucas Recommends Here: https://www.inb4supps.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textIn this episode of The Strong Her Way, I sit down with Kayla Girgen, rucking expert and author, to break down exactly what rucking is, how it's different from regular walking, and why it's one of the most underrated fitness tools for women—especially in their 30s, 40s, and beyond.Rucking is simply walking with weight, but don't underestimate it. When done correctly, rucking can improve strength, bone density, cardiovascular fitness, and mental health—without the joint stress of high-impact workouts. Kayla shares her personal journey into fitness and rucking, how to start safely, and the biggest mistakes women make when adding weight to their walks.We also dive into:Why rucking is powerful for fat loss without overtrainingHow outdoor exercise and walking with weight can reduce stress and anxietyThe importance of proper footwear and gear for injury preventionHow rucking can be a social activity that builds consistencyCommon myths about exercise, weight loss, and “needing more intensity”How women over 35 can use rucking to support bone density and long-term healthKayla also introduces her new book on rucking, sharing practical, realistic ways to integrate weighted walking into everyday life—without needing more time, more willpower, or extreme workouts.If you're looking for a low-impact walking workout that delivers real results for your body and mind, this episode will change how you think about fitness.Connect with Kayla:Website: https://kaylagirgenrd.com/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kaylagirgenrdFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/kaylagirgenrdldInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kaylagirgenrd/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kaylagirgenrdLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kaylagirgen/Buy her brand new book here! —> https://amzn.to/3LZTMB2

A 30-day break from alcohol changes multiple systems at once: metabolic, cardiovascular, neurological, and behavioral. In this episode, I'm summarizing what the research says about the benefits people commonly experience, including sleep, energy, liver fat, and drink-refusal self-efficacy.

Physician-scientist Randall Stafford studies the effects of alcohol use on population health – the true health impact, he emphasizes. Stafford explains how early research suggested that drinking is beneficial – or at least not bad – for people. That mindset produced decades of wishful thinking based on inconsistent science driven by social, emotional, and industry forces. The small cardiovascular benefits, he says, are far outweighed by the risks of cancer, liver disease, depression, and other ills. Although the harms of low-level consumption are small, there is no safe level of alcohol use, Stafford tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?
