In this episode of SHE MD Podcast, Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi and Mary Alice Haney welcome Dr. Gabrielle Lyon to explore the critical role of muscle, protein, and metabolic health in women's longevity. Dr. Lyon challenges conventional narratives around aging and reframes strength as a foundation for long-term health, independence, and resilience.The conversation dives into why muscle is far more than an aesthetic goal and how it supports hormonal balance, metabolic health, and functional longevity. Dr. Lyon explains how prioritizing strength can help women protect their health as they age, reduce disease risk, and maintain vitality across every stage of life. Listeners gain clarity on how protein intake, resistance training, and proactive health strategies work together to build resilience. Dr. Lyon emphasizes that the ultimate goal is not simply muscle growth, but creating stronger, more capable humans who can thrive physically, mentally, and emotionally.This episode empowers women to rethink aging, move away from reactive healthcare, and adopt a proactive approach to strength and longevity. By focusing on function, resilience, and long-term health, Dr. Lyon offers a powerful framework for women to invest in their future selves and redefine what healthy aging truly looks like.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PCOS, Endometriosis, fertility, and hormonal balance.

In this episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons is joined by Dr. Erica Schwartz, a pioneer in hormone and integrative medicine, for a blunt conversation about menopause, hormone replacement therapy, and why women are still being denied care that protects their long-term health.Together, they get real about why modern medicine still runs on a “wait until you're sick” model, why hospitals can be the most dangerous place to heal, and how the system trains both doctors and patients to outsource responsibility. They break down the lasting damage of the Women's Health Initiative, the fear-based messaging around estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, and the real-world consequences of medical gatekeeping from pharmacies to hospitals. This is a conversation about truth, autonomy, and what it actually looks like to practice medicine from the whole-body, whole-life perspective.In this episode you'll learn:Why conventional medicine is built for acute care, not long-term healthHow the Women's Health Initiative changed hormone care for generations of womenWhy “just deal with it” menopause advice is harmful (and wildly outdated)What estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone actually do in the female bodyWhy testosterone for women is still restricted and why that mattersHow medical errors and hospital systems put patients at riskWhy taking responsibility for your health isn't optional anymoreEpisode Timeline:00:00 The Crisis in Conventional Medicine03:54 Dr. Schwartz's Journey to Holistic Health09:59 The Shift from Acute Care to Preventative Health17:47 The Importance of Hormonal Health25:29 The Impact of Alcohol on Health28:10 Nutrition and Cancer: A Misunderstood Connection30:55 The Role of Hormones in Health36:06 Understanding the Importance of Hormones40:24 The Truth About Cancer and Hormones44:38 Empowering Patients in Their Health Journey47:45 The Need for Compassionate Care in Medicine51:03 Introduction to Breast Health AwarenessDr. Erica SchwartzVisit her Website: www.eshealth.com/Follow her on Instagram: www.instagram.com/eshealth/To talk to a member of Dr. Jenn's team and learn more about working privately with RHMD, visit: https://jennsimmons.simplero.com/page/377266?kuid=327aca17-5135-44cf-9210-c0b77a56e26d&kref=vOKy0sAiorrKTo get your copy of Dr. Jenn's book, The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer, visit: https://tinyurl.com/SmartWomansBreastCancerGuideTo purchase the auria breast cancer screening test go here https://auria.care/ and use the code DRJENN20 for 20% Off.Connect with Dr. Jenn:Website: https://www.jennsimmonsmd.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrJennSimmonsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jennsimmons

“They're kind of like a hidden superhero in your body and we just didn't know they existed. Muse cells eat the damaged cells, and they can actually turn into new cells using the cellular machinery.”Dr. Adeel Khan is a global thought leader in regenerative medicine. He is the CEO and Founder of and founder of Eterna Health, whose work with MUSE cell therapy—developed in collaboration with its discoverer, Professor Mari Dezawa—has made him the go-to expert for world leaders, athletes, and celebrities Chris Hemsworth, Kim Kardashian, and Tony Robbins. In this episode, we move beyond the hype of "anti-aging" to explore the hard science of Muse cells (Multilineage-differentiating Stress-Enduring cells). Dr. Khan breaks down how these unique cells differ from the "medicinal signaling cells" (MSCs) found in most clinics and how they act as a bridge to a future where tissue regeneration is standard care.(0:00) The "Repair Guys" & The Muse Difference Dr. Khan explains why traditional stem cells (MSCs) often disappoint and how Muse cells offer the "best of both worlds": safety and pluripotency.(2:19) Smart Cells: How They Find the Damage Understanding the "homing mechanism" that allows Muse cells to sense inflammation and instinctively travel to injured areas like the brain or heart.(3:11) Curing the Incurable: Diabetes & Alzheimer's The potential of the "cure triad"—stem cells, gene therapy, and FMT—to treat complex autoimmune diseases within the next decade.(4:40) Biological Noise & The Symphony of Health How "static" in our gene expression indicates aging, and how cellular therapy can reduce this noise to restore the body's harmony.(6:40) The Viral Monkey Study Dr. Khan discusses a recent study showing significant de-aging in monkeys through high-frequency cell dosing.(7:32) Unshakeable Foundations: Lifestyle as MedicineWhy advanced therapies must be paired with purpose, community, and mindfulness to create a "bulletproof" body.(8:44) From Sketchy to StandardizedNavigating the regulatory landscape: why Muse cells are being classified as a drug in regions like the UAE and the path toward FDA approval.(12:24) A Personal MissionDr. Khan shares the origin of his journey: trying to find solutions for his mother's chronic illness when traditional medicine failed.(14:16) The Cancer HunterUnlike other pluripotent cells that risk tumor growth, Muse cells have a unique mechanism that can detect cancer cells and trigger their death.(18:30)Future Outlook: AI, Nature & Blue Zones Reflections on the risks of AI, the importance of "Blue Zone" city design, and reconnecting with nature in a post-human world.Episode Websitewww.creativeprocess.info/podInstagram:@creativeprocesspodcast

STRONGER BONES LIFESTYLE: REVERSING THE COURSE OF OSTEOPOROSIS NATURALLY
In this solo episode, Debi Robinson speaks directly to women who have been diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis and left feeling afraid, fragile, or unsure how to move forward.Debi explores how osteoporosis became a widespread diagnosis, why the DEXA scan does not tell the full story about fracture risk, and how fear itself can quietly accelerate bone loss. She challenges the idea that a number on a scan defines your future and offers a calmer, more empowering perspective on bone health.This episode is not about rejecting medicine or ignoring data — it's about placing information in context, reclaiming trust in your body, and understanding how lifestyle, stress, digestion, movement, and nervous system health truly influence your bones.If you've ever felt overwhelmed or disempowered by a bone health diagnosis, this episode is for you.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeHow osteoporosis became a fear-based diagnosisThe limitations of the DEXA scan for predicting fracturesWhy many fractures occur in women without osteoporosisHow fear changes movement patterns and increases fracture riskWhy bone medications don't address root causesThe real role of stress, digestion, and inflammation in bone lossHow lifestyle choices influence bone strength dailyA practical, tiered approach to supporting bone healthHow to rebuild confidence and trust in your bodyAction Steps You Can Take TodayReframe the diagnosis — see your DEXA scan as information, not identity.Move daily with intention, alignment, and confidence.Reduce chronic stress through breathwork, yoga, or mindfulness.Support digestion to improve nutrient absorption.Focus on consistency, not extremes, in lifestyle habits.Educate yourself so fear no longer drives your decisions.Choose empowerment over paralysis when it comes to your bones.Resources & LinksHealthy Gut, Healthy Bones Program: https://debirobinsonwellness.thrivecart.com/hghb-self-paced-group-program-pp/Stronger Bones Lifestyle Community https://debirobinson.com/the-stronger-bones-lifestyle-community/Debi's TakeawayOsteoporosis does not define you.A scan does not own you.Fear does not protect you.Your bones are living tissue, responding every day to how you eat, move, manage stress, and live your life. When you replace fear with education and trust your body again, your bones respond.You are not fragile. You are capable — and your bone health journey belongs to you.
After a brief pause at the end of the year, Dr. Rachaele Carver returns with a powerful solo episode to open 2026, inviting listeners to rethink the way we approach change, healing, and personal growth.Instead of setting New Year's resolutions that often fade by February, this episode explores a deeper and more sustainable framework: living in alignment with your values.Dr. Carver unpacks why so many goals fail when they are driven by “shoulds” rather than meaning, and how shifting toward values-based living can transform not only oral health, but energy, confidence, relationships, and overall well-being.This conversation blends personal stories, clinical insight, and reflective questions to help listeners begin the year with clarity, compassion, and intention.In this episode, Dr. Carver discusses:Why traditional New Year's resolutions rarely stickThe difference between goals and values, and why values matter moreHow living out of alignment drains energy and fuels burnoutThe connection between values, nervous system regulation, and healthHow thoughts become beliefs, and beliefs shape realityParenting, anxiety, and helping children live in their own valuesRecognizing physical and emotional signals from the body as guidanceQuestions to help identify your core valuesSigns you may be living out of alignmentHow values-based living improves decision-making, boundaries, and fulfillmentWhy integrity and empowered teaching are central themes in Dr. Carver's life and practiceSetting intentions for the year ahead through alignment rather than pressureResources mentioned:Firefly Therapy AustinDr. John Demartini's Values Assessment (drdemartini.com/values)Podcast: Energized with Dr. MarizaClosing reflection:Healing doesn't come from pushing harder or chasing outcomes. It comes from slowing down, listening deeply, and allowing our actions to flow from what truly matters.When we live in our values, the body responds. And everything we want begins to unfold naturally.Thank you for being part of The Root of the Matter. Here's to a grounded, aligned, and nourishing year ahead.
As the year wraps up, it's tempting to jump straight into planning what's next — without ever stopping to reflect on what just happened.In this episode, we talk about why crafting a clear narrative for your year is one of the most powerful (and overlooked) tools for preventing burnout, building perspective, and entering the next season grounded instead of reactive.We explore:Why high performers default to focusing on what didn't go wellHow negativity bias distorts your view of the yearThe clinical parallel between helping patients make sense of their story — and doing the same for yourselfWhy even experienced CEOs struggle to give themselves creditOur one-sentence narrative for 2025, shaped by becoming a family of four while expanding our impact in pelvic healthHow reflection creates psychological closure and protects against burnoutWe'll walk you through a simple exercise to help you name your own one-sentence narrative for the year — before you start planning the next one.If you're feeling tired, behind, or like the year slipped by too fast, this episode is your invitation to pause, zoom out, and recognize what you've actually built.About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health.

Do you notice the same patterns repeating in your life?What if those patterns weren't random but part of your astrological blueprint, offering guidance for your healing journey? In this light, New Year episode, I sit down with Remy Ramirez—astrologer, mental health coach, and host of the Patrauma Party podcast—for a grounded and expansive conversation on using astrology as a tool for self-awareness, emotional healing, and inner work.We explore what's ahead in 2026 astrology, including the rare Saturn–Neptune conjunction, and how this potent alignment may signal both a collective energetic shift and a deeply personal invitation to change and do the inner work. Rather than predicting fate, we discuss how astrology can help you understand your nervous system patterns, emotional responses, and subconscious themes—so you can move forward with greater clarity and compassion.Remy also shares how receiving her own birth chart reading illuminated the roots of long-held wounds, softened her relationship with herself, and opened the door to lasting emotional healing. If you've been navigating self-love, energetic boundaries, or a season of transition, this episode offers insight, reassurance, and gentle encouragement.In this episode, you'll learn:What the 2026 Saturn–Neptune conjunction may bring collectively and personallyHow astrology mirrors nervous system responses and emotional patternsWhy somatic healing and subconscious work pair powerfully with astrologyHow astrology supports spiritual healing and growthThe connection between your moon sign and mental healthHow your birth chart reveals emotional patternsThe healing power of naming and understanding recurring patternsHow to work intentionally with full moon and new moon energyWhy astrology predictions are about awareness—not destinyThe role of self-respect in healing and relationshipsHow astrology can guide both your subconscious work and next steps with clarityWhether you're in a season of reflection, transition, or spiritual awakening, this conversation offers a reminder: healing doesn't happen all at once. As you learn to trust yourself—and the divine timing of your path, clarity unfolds naturally.Much love,LaurieLaurie's episode on Patrauma Party with Remy RamirezClick here to fill out my Podcast survey for 2026.Click here to learn about my NEW “Nervous System Regulation Starter Kit” Click here to purchase my book: Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting GoFree ResourcesClick here to schedule a FREE inquiry call with me.Click here for my FREE “Beginner's Guide to Somatic Healing”Click here for my FREE Core Values ExerciseWebsiteConnect Please leave me feedback.

In this thought-provoking episode of the Tongue Tie Experts podcast, host Lisa Paladino, CNM, IBCLC, is joined by Olena Dobchansky, a clinician, educator, and leader in maternal and child health. With decades of experience guiding families and supporting nurses, Olena offers a grounded, compassionate, and deeply informed perspective on the current landscape of infant feeding and postpartum care.Together, Lisa and Olena explore how maternal-child health has evolved within traditional medical systems, and what has been lost along the way. They discuss the commercialization of breastfeeding support, how language shapes our understanding of infant feeding, and why individualized, relationship-centered care matters.Key Topics DiscussedOlena's journey in nursing and leadership in maternal & child healthHow nursing theory has shifted, and what clinicians are still missingThe difference between “breastfeeding” and “lactation”: words that matterChallenges created by corporate healthcare systemsThe rise of commodified feeding solutions and the “quick fix” mindsetBuilding health literacy and informed decision-making in familiesHow social media influences parents' feeding choices, stress, and identityThe role of family dynamics and support networks in feeding successWhy understanding the lived experience of each mother is essential to careThe call to return to personalized, respectful, and holistic supportTakeawaysBreastfeeding is not simply a biological act; it's relational, emotional, and deeply contextual.Healthcare systems often prioritize efficiency over connection—yet connection is where healing and confidence emerge.Families need more than instructions, they need clarity, support, and validation.Professionals must listen not just to symptoms, but to stories.About Our GuestOlena Dobchansky is a clinician, educator, and advocate in maternal and child health.

In this episode, I sit down with THE industry's photographer Mario Wilkinson to talk about what the camera actually captures, and what athletes are really living through behind the scenes.Mario has photographed everyone from first-time competitors to Olympia-level athletes, and his perspective is rare: he sees the peak moments, the crashes after the stage lights turn off, and the emotional patterns that repeat backstage year after year.We talk about:The difference between athletes who are grounded in their process vs. chasing validationWhat bodybuilding photos don't show about pressure, comparison, and mental healthHow social media has changed the way athletes see themselvesThe emotional cost of being judged on stage, online, and internallyWhy photos matter in the off-season — not just at your “best”What longevity in bodybuilding actually looks like (and who tends to last)This isn't a highlight-reel conversation. It's an honest look at identity, discipline, image, and what it really means to pursue physique goals without losing yourself in the process.Whether you're a competitor, coach, creative, or someone navigating comparison culture in fitness — this episode will make you think differently about the photos you see and the stories you tell yourself.Connect with Mario: Instagram / TikTok / Facebook: @mwilk.media https://www.instagram.com/mwilk.media@shotby.wilkhttps://www.instagram.com/shotby.wilkIf this episode resonates, subscribe to the channel and share it with someone who needs a more grounded perspective on fitness, bodybuilding, and self-trust.Find me on IG: @noamccabe_ifbbpro.BEcoming Relentless IG: @becomingrelentless_.If you are interested in working with me, I am looking for new athletes, general lifestyle clients, and contest prep competitors.

What if your diagnosis is not a life sentence, but an invitation to rebuild your health, identity, and purpose from the ground up? Josh Trent welcomes Dr. Ryan Lazarus, Functional Medicine Practitioner, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 788, to reveal how surviving a near death experience without a pancreas shattered medical labels, reshaped his beliefs about healing, and led him to a holistic blueprint that integrates mindset, food as medicine, trauma stored in DNA, mental fitness, connection, and purpose as the true foundations of lifelong health.
▶︎▶︎Preorder my new book ‘The Connection Code': https://beehive.drmelissasonners.com/the-connection-code We're living in a time where information is everywhere, yet so many women still feel overwhelmed and stuck in survival mode. Modern self-care often adds more pressure, more rules, and more to-do's, leaving the nervous system even more dysregulated than before.In my recent stage talk for the International Hyperbarics Association, I shared why healing doesn't come from doing more, chasing protocols, or perfect routines. It begins with nervous system regulation, connection, and learning how to shift out of chronic fight-or-flight and back into safety, presence, and intuition — using simple, realistic tools that actually fit into daily life.What You'll Learn:Why chronic stress, digital overload, and constant stimulation keep the nervous system stuck in fight-or-flightHow nervous system dysregulation shows up as anxiety, burnout, brain fog, hormonal imbalance, and emotional overwhelmThe difference between living in beta brainwaves versus accessing alpha and theta for healing and clarityWhy self-care needs a rebrand — and why traditional self-care often misses the nervous system entirelyWhat “regulation reps” are and how short, consistent moments of regulation rewire the nervous systemHow micro moments of connection improve mood, focus, resilience, and emotional regulationWhy play, joy, and oxytocin are powerful tools for hormone balance and nervous system healthHow to move from living in your head back into your heart — without adding more to your plateResources:Preorder my new book ‘The Connection Code': https://beehive.drmelissasonners.com/the-connection-code My Red Light faves, with special codes and discounts: https://www.drmelissasonners.com/red-light-guide Be Inspired Mama Journal: https://amzn.to/4afbs3s Want a free and meaningful way to support the show?

Navigating health can feel complicated and overwhelming, especially for women in midlife. Between new workout routines, supplement trends, and the constant advice we see online, it's difficult to discern what we actually need to be healthy.Deep health is not a matter of following the leader, but understanding what you–your body, your mind, and your nervous system–need to feel good. In this episode, I talk with Courtney Townley of the Grace & Grit podcast about what holistic women's health really means and how to approach it with more ease, consistency, and self-trust.We've been sold the idea that health has to do with how we look, but disease and dysfunction can come in all shapes and sizes. Health is multidimensional. Of course, it's physical, but it's also relational, environmental, and spiritual. Healing means a return to wholeness, and that only happens when you honor every part of your humanity.Health can't be attained by following a list of rules and regulations written for you; you have to learn and develop the skills to become the leader of your life and take charge of your decisions. Nobody knows your life better than you do. You know when to rest instead of pushing harder, or when to choose a morning walk and fresh air over another 5 a.m. exercise bootcamp. This self-connection is what women's health is truly about.You are in relationship with everything—people, food, movement, and your environment. Holistic women's health and healing begin with mending the most important relationship of all: the one you have with yourself. When you nurture that connection and reduce the stress that keeps you disconnected, you create space for the life you want.What you'll learn:Why health is not the absence of disease, but knowing how to care for yourself within itThe difference between superficial health and deep health—and tools to move from one to the otherHow to create consistency by honoring your needs and understanding what self-care looks like for youWhy reducing unnecessary stress is the first step toward holistic women's healthHow self-leadership and support from others are both important for your well-beingYou can read the full show notes here.About Courtney TownleyCourtney Townley is a wellness advocate, leadership coach, and passionate community-builder with over 30 years of experience helping her clients lead themselves through the health arena with more ease and grace. She is the founder of Grace & Grit and the Rumble & Rise community, where she helps midlife women strengthen their self-leadership skills, align with what truly nourishes them, and build lives rooted in purpose and connection. She also hosts the long-running Grace & Grit podcast, now in its tenth year, where she shares real, insightful conversations about what it means to live and lead well. Courtney believes that meaningful transformation happens in community, not in isolation. Through her coaching, retreats, podcast, and speaking engagements, she offers practical strategies for fostering trust, building resilience, and cultivating spaces where individuals and communities can thrive. Her forthcoming book, The Consistency Code (releasing November 2025), offers a simple but powerful framework to help women amplify their health and happiness by aligning their lives with what truly matters.Website: www.graceandgrit.comInstagram:

Reclaiming Men's Health: Proactive Wellness, Vulnerability, and the Power of Service — Lessons from Christopher ZainoIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Christopher Zaino, former Mister America and Mister Universe, and Founder of The Stallion Project. Christopher shares his inspiring journey of overcoming ulcerative colitis and embracing a mission to help men reclaim their health, vitality, and purpose. This episode is a powerful call to action for men ready to live intentionally, with honesty, strength, and holistic wellness at the forefront.The Stallion Protocol: Realigning Men with Health and PurposeChristopher Zaino believes the root of many health struggles for men is denial. From ignoring symptoms to suppressing emotions, men are often conditioned to be self-reliant to a fault. Zaino advocates for radical honesty as the first step to reclaiming physical and emotional well-being. He urges men to stop brushing off fatigue, digestive issues, or burnout—and to schedule regular checkups and address both physical and emotional health head-on.Beyond honesty, Zaino emphasizes understanding one's biochemistry. Imbalances in testosterone, dopamine, and cortisol often explain symptoms like low energy, mood swings, and lack of drive. Through comprehensive blood work, lifestyle adjustments, and expert guidance, men can restore balance and reignite their performance and purpose. His protocol also prioritizes movement and mindset—integrating daily cardio and uplifting inputs like podcasts to elevate both body and mind.Another powerful pillar of Zaino's philosophy is vulnerability. By sharing his story, he discovered deep healing—and encourages men to do the same. He believes community, connection, and service are vital parts of wellness. Whether it's checking in with friends, helping others, or scheduling self-care as a leadership practice, Zaino's message is clear: real strength lies in self-awareness, action, and service.About Christopher ZainoChristopher Zaino is a renowned speaker, former professional bodybuilder, and the Founder of The Stallion Project. After overcoming a life-threatening health crisis, he became a passionate advocate for men's wellness, purpose, and emotional growth—coaching thousands of men to lead with authenticity and strength.About The Stallion ProjectThe Stallion Project is a movement led by Christopher Zaino dedicated to helping men in midlife reconnect with their health, purpose, and power.

Clearing the FOG with co-hosts Margaret Flowers and Kevin Zeese
The United States was scheduled for its regular review of its human rights violations by the United Nations Human Rights Council on November 7, but it refused to cooperate. As part of the process, activists in the US submitted a shadow report last April called "The Rights to Life and Health: How financing affects the right to health care in the US." Clearing the FOG speaks with Martha "Marti" Schmidt, a human rights expert and activist, about the findings in the shadow report, the legal basis supporting the human right to health care, the problems with the current healthcare system in the United States and what type of system would honor our right to health care. Schmidt also discusses successful healthcare systems in other countries and the importance of showing solidarity with countries that are targeted by the United States.
