Is the diet being promoted to “save the planet” actually based on environmental data?In this eye-opening interview, Dr. Frank Mitloehner, air quality specialist and director of the CLEAR Center at UC Davis, unpacks the claims behind the EAT-Lancet 2.0 report, particularly the idea that cutting animal-sourced foods will drastically reduce environmental harm. Despite widespread media framing it as a climate solution, Dr. Mitloehner reveals that the Planetary Health Diet is not grounded in environmental science at all — a fact even confirmed in the report's own glossary.He also highlights a key finding from the UN's FAO: shifting to plant-based diets was ranked among the least effective ways to reduce livestock-related emissions, far behind solutions like improving animal health and increasing productivity.

Join Patreon for a bonus episode where I share more details about my journey here.Forget tracking your food, I dropped 55 pounds postpartum by focusing on the basics.Instead of obsessing over the scale, I treated weight gain and loss as signals, clues about stress, thyroid health, circadian rhythm, and whether my body was fueled for energy and milk supply.

Claim Your Brain: When Crisis Becomes a CallingA soulful conversation with Jocelyn Pepe for Women's PulseA few weeks ago, I had the honour of sitting down with author, mental health researcher, and wellness strategist Jocelyn Pepe on Let's Talk. Today, I'm thrilled to share the video of that conversation because this one deserves to be seen and heard.Jocelyn's story is one of grace under fire, of using adversity as raw material for transformation. Years ago, we sat at a conference together, talking about dreams, fear, and the desire to create meaningful change. She told me then:“I want to write a book that helps people understand they can heal and to remind them that they are not beyond repair. That their mind is powerful.”And now, she's done precisely that.Her book, Claim Your Brain, is not just a workbook; it's a reset for real people living real lives. It's for those of us who are quietly holding everything together while silently falling apart.In our conversation, Jocelyn shares the pivotal moment that changed everything: a traumatic brain injury that shattered the illusion of “doing it all” and forced her into radical self-awareness, emotional honesty, and deep nervous system healing.We talked about:Why anxiety and burnout are often symptoms of suppressed needsHow motherhood, loss, and perimenopause shaped her healingHer unique TrU Model of mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual wellnessAnd why the world needs more tools, and less shame when it comes to mental healthWhat struck me most was how Jocelyn turned her pain into purpose. And not just a purpose but a movement. There's a program coming out of the book, not just for adults, but for children, too.And to be a small part of that journey? It's one of the great privileges of my work.

We think we're so sure about what we know about science - did you know, though, that there are 48 catalogued forms of bias? There exists, and I was excited to learn this, a catalogue of bias that is constantly tweaked and updated. Which leads me to today's show with Dr Lewis Ehrlich - one of our most popular guests over the years. When I saw Lewis had been accepted into a one-of-a-kind postgraduate program in Evidence-Based Medicine and Healthcare at Oxford University last year, I was already excited about this conversation I knew we'd have for the show once he completed it!What's brilliant about this program is that you come together with people from outside your medical field - neurosurgeons, Oncologists, Orthopaedic Surgeons, Cardiologists, Public Health PhDs, and general practitioners- to conduct, analyse, critique, and improve scientific literature. It was a tremendous honour to be accepted into and learn at this historic University.We explore science in today's show, both generally and as it relates to Lewis's field of practice, dentistry. You'll hear about:Bias and how we both form them and become more aware of them in our own lives as we explore topicsNuance - it's all about who you are and what you need, and our system isn't built for thatThe need to leave our black and white frameworks in medical practice, while also not throwing everything we know out the windowThe fine line between curiosity and analysis, and suspicion and mistrustFluoride as an example - not always essential, not always ‘bad' either if you consider all relevant factors in a ‘to fluoridate or not' debateNew frontiers in dental healthWhat we know for sure helps us keep excellent oral health overall.Enjoy the show.

Episode Summary: Breast Cancer Prevention Just Took Two Big Steps ForwardIn this short but powerful episode, Georgie breaks down two groundbreaking developments in breast cancer prevention that could reshape how we think about screening, menopause care, and early intervention:1️⃣ An FDA-authorized AI tool—Clairity Breast—that predicts a woman's five-year breast cancer risk from a standard mammogram, even when it appears normal.2️⃣ A menopause drug, Duavee, that may help prevent invasive breast cancer in women with a history of high-risk lesions like DCIS.These tools aren't just high-tech—they're practical, accessible, and represent a smarter, more equitable approach to women's health.Whether you're a clinician, policymaker, or woman navigating your own care, this episode breaks down what you need to know.
