The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host Toying with better sex can transform the way couples experience pleasure, connection, and intimacy. Toying with sex isn't just about adding gadgets to the bedroom—it can be about discovering what your body wants, communicating desires, and making sex more playful. Toying with better sex can also help break routines, spark curiosity, and create new opportunities for pleasure and connection. In this episode, we'll explore five provocative talking points: Why Toys Can Make Sex Better Toys, Communication & Consent When One Partner Isn't Into Toys Solo Pleasure Meets Partnered Sex From Routine to Adventure 5 Key Takeaways Sex toys can be tools for self-exploration. Learning what you enjoy can make it easier to communicate your preferences and desires with a partner. Adding toys can create more pleasure, connection, and intimacy. Curiosity and play can help move sex beyond routines that have become predictable or stagnant. Consent and communication are essential. Regardless of how long you have been together, introducing or using a toy requires conversation and consent. Choose what works for your body—not what is popular. Different bodies enjoy different types and levels of stimulation, so the most talked-about toy may not be the right one for you. Solo pleasure can become part of partnered pleasure. Exploring a toy yourself and then showing your partner what works can open communication and create new opportunities for play together.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host Whether you are craving a person that is unavailable or an experience that is unavailable, what is it about the unavailable that has it be so much more interesting? People often have a craving for the unavailable and it can be for many different reasons. In this episode we will explore: The neuroscience behind cravings Do people just like having a craving, or does it need to be fulfilled When can a craving become an obsession How to stop craving the unavailable Join Milica Jelenic, Sex & Intimacy Coach, Holistic Health Practitioner on this episode of The Pleasure Zone where we will discuss, "Craving The Unavailable". 5 Key Takeaways Craving the unavailable can feel safer than having a real relationship. Fantasy allows you to desire someone without facing the vulnerability, responsibility, and effort of actually being together. Inconsistent attention can intensify craving. Small moments of attention or affection can create powerful dopamine highs that keep you wanting the next interaction. Ask whether you're craving the person or the feeling they give you. You may actually be seeking the attention, validation, excitement, connection, or emotional high associated with them. Separate the fantasy from the reality. Ask whether you would genuinely want the relationship—with its incompatibilities, expectations, vulnerabilities, and everyday realities—if that person suddenly became available. Choose yourself first. Identify what you believe this person will give you and begin fulfilling those needs within yourself instead of making them responsible for filling the void.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host Discovering that your partner has been a cheater can be one of the most painful experiences in a relationship. Anger, grief, betrayal, confusion, and even hope can all exist at the same time when you find out your partner is a cheater. When someone has found out their partner is a cheater the questions often arise like "Why did they cheat? Can trust truly be rebuilt? And how do you know when it's time to repair the relationship, or when it's healthier to walk away? In this episode, we'll explore: *Why Do People Cheat? The Research May Surprise You *Do Men and Women Cheat for Different Reasons?. *Can a Relationship Recover After Infidelity? *When Do You Know It's Over? When someone cheats it doesn't have to define your future, but how you respond can shape how you move forward in your life and relationships. 5 Key Takeaways Assumptions turn missing information into stories. We often react as though those stories are facts, even when the original situation may be simple. The mind assumes because it wants certainty and safety. It fills gaps using past fears, old wounds, and expectations. Pause between the trigger and the story. Ask what you actually know, what you are guessing, and what else could be true. Assumptions can become self-fulfilling prophecies. A defensive reaction to an unverified belief can create the very conflict you feared. Separate facts from assumptions. You do not need to punish yourself with worst-case guesses or treat fear as fact.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host Ex-sex is one of the most misunderstood relationship experiences, yet millions of people admit to reconnecting sexually with a former partner. Whether it's driven by comfort, unresolved emotions, nostalgia, or incredible chemistry, ex-sex often raises more questions than answers. In this episode of The Pleasure Zone, we unpack the psychology, biology, and relationship dynamics behind ex-sex, separating myths from research to discover why so many people return to a past lover—and whether it's ever a healthy choice. In this episode, we'll explore: * The Psychology of Returning to an Ex * What Research Says About Ex-Sex * When Ex-Sex Helps—and When It Hurts * Breaking Old Patterns or Creating New Possibilities Join Milica Jelenic, Holistic Health Practitioner, Sex & Intimacy Coach on this episode of The Pleasure Zone to find out "Why People Have Sex With Their Ex?". 5 Key Takeaways Familiarity is a major reason people return to an ex. Comfort, nostalgia, and knowing each other sexually can make reconnecting feel easy. Know your motivation before reconnecting sexually. Sex is unlikely to fix unresolved issues or win an ex back. Sex with an ex can keep you emotionally stuck. Nostalgia and old relationship patterns can make moving forward more difficult. Look at what your ex represents for you. What you miss may be the confidence, acceptance, connection, or sense of self you experienced with them. Clear boundaries and honesty are essential. If both people choose to reconnect sexually, expectations, intentions, safety, and where it is—or isn't—going should be clear.

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi takes a deeper look at vaccines through the lens of the immune system, bodily sovereignty, informed consent, and personal responsibility. Drawing from her holistic health perspective, Simone explores questions around how the immune system works, how different forms of immunity are understood, and what it means to make informed decisions about medical interventions.Simone discusses the importance of understanding what is being introduced into the body, why it is being recommended, and the potential risks and benefits before making a decision. She explores questions surrounding vaccine ingredients, vaccine-induced versus naturally acquired immunity, and the role of nutrition, sleep, movement, sunlight, and other lifestyle factors in supporting overall immune health.A major focus of this episode is the difference between recommendation, requirement, and genuine informed consent. Simone shares a personal experience involving an HPV vaccination campaign at her son's school and how the situation led her to question medical authority, parental rights, and the boundaries of bodily autonomy. The conversation expands into broader questions surrounding vaccine mandates, pharmaceutical liability, COVID-era policies, and what can happen when people feel pressured to make healthcare decisions without fully understanding their choices.Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to ask questions, understand your options, and take an active role in decisions involving your health and your family's wellbeing.KEY TAKEAWAYSInformed consent requires understanding what is being recommended, why it is being recommended, and the potential risks and benefits involved.There is an important distinction between something being recommended and something being legally required, making it important to understand the policies and rights that apply to each situation.Simone explores the idea that supporting immune health also involves foundational lifestyle factors such as nutrition, sleep, movement, sunlight, and overall wellbeing.Medical decisions can raise important ethical questions when individuals feel pressured, threatened, or unable to make a genuinely voluntary choice.Taking responsibility for your health means asking questions, seeking information from qualified sources, and making informed decisions rather than surrendering your ability to think critically.BEST MOMENTS"Informed consent means very little if you don't actually understand what you're consenting to—or what you're consenting to being done to your kids.""You should never let anybody from the medical community coerce you, force you, intimidate you, push you, or in any way pressure you to inject anything into your body.""You are the steward of your body, not the state, not the school, not the government, not public health, not anybody.""I was not willing to betray my values, my beliefs, or my role as a mom.""Do not hand over your power and your sovereignty. Ever."HOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a seasoned coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host Bedroom mistakes can quietly steal passion, weaken intimacy, and leave couples wondering where the spark went. The truth is, bedroom mistakes are far more common than most people realize, and even the happiest relationships can fall into habits that reduce pleasure and connection. We will uncover the most damaging bedroom mistakes, explain why they happen, and share practical ways to replace them with habits that create deeper intimacy, greater satisfaction, and lasting desire. In this episode, we'll explore: *The communication trap that leaves partners making assumptions instead of expressing their desires, needs, and boundaries. *How routine quietly kills excitement, and why introducing curiosity, novelty, and playfulness can reignite passion. *The pressure to perform instead of connect, and how shifting your focus to presence and pleasure creates more fulfilling intimate experiences. *Simple, actionable strategies to overcome common bedroom challenges, strengthen emotional connection, and build a sex life that continues to grow and evolve. Join Milica Jelenic, Holistic Health Practitioner, Sex & Intimacy Coach on this episode of The Pleasure Zone to find out all about "The Biggest Bedroom Mistakes". 5 Key Takeaways Clear communication is the foundation of great intimacy. Stop making assumptions and start expressing your desires openly and honestly. Curiosity keeps relationships alive. Replacing routine with exploration creates more excitement, connection, and pleasure. Presence matters more than performance.

What if one of the biggest assumptions in modern medicine has never been questioned the way you think?In this thought-provoking conversation, Dr. Tom Cowan explains why he believes viruses have never been isolated in the way most people imagine—and why that distinction changes everything.Whether you agree with him or not, this episode will challenge you to think more critically about virology, scientific methodology, and how medical consensus is formed.In this episode, we discuss:What “viral isolation” actually means.Why Dr. Cowan believes the methods used to identify viruses deserve closer examination.The laboratory process he argues is misunderstood.HPV, polio, and other viruses through the lens of his interpretation of virology.Why questioning scientific assumptions is not the same as rejecting science.How critical thinking begins with asking better questions.This conversation isn't about telling you what to believe.It's about inviting you to hear an argument in full before deciding what you think.⸻

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host Why does sex disappear from relationships that were once full of passion? Why does great sex slowly become routine, and why does desire disappears when love is still alive? Does sex matter enough to keep the spark alive? Do couples crave intimacy but don't know how to maintain or invite desire back? What disappears first, sex or intimacy? In this episode, you'll discover: *C@ck blockers that you might not have considered *Why comfort can kill desire, and how predictability quietly assassinates your sex life. *What the couples with great sex loves are doing, and what you are failing to do *Using some basic C's to bring the great sex back: communication, connection, consent and curiosity! Join Milica Jelenic, Holistic Health Practitioner, Sex & Intimacy Coach on this episode of The Pleasure Zone where we will find out what happens "When Good Sex Disappears." Grab your Yes, No, Maybe list - all about Playful Tips for Pleasure here  5 Key Takeaways / Highlights Good sex rarely disappears overnight—it is usually eroded by unresolved issues over time. Resentments, poor communication, unmet needs, chronic stress, and emotional disconnection gradually chip away at intimacy until desire begins to fade. Comfort without growth can become the enemy of passion. While emotional safety is essential, relationships that become overly predictable and routine can lose the novelty, curiosity, and excitement that help keep desire alive. Intimacy grows when couples continue exploring, communicating, and evolving together. Great sex is built through intentional connection, not luck. Couples who maintain fulfilling intimate relationships make time to communicate honestly, flirt, play, stay curious, and discuss their desires and boundaries. They actively nurture their relationship instead of assuming passion will maintain itself. Gratitude and playfulness help reignite desire. Focusing on what you appreciate about your partner, creating shared experiences, laughing together, and introducing variety into your relationship can strengthen emotional connection and naturally support a healthy, satisfying sex life. Not every relationship can—or should—be revived. While many intimacy challenges can be improved through communication, growth, and mutual effort, ongoing abuse, manipulation, gaslighting, repeated boundary violations, or a complete unwillingness to address relationship issues are important signs that it may be healthier to walk away.   The Pleasure Zone – A Guide For Curioius Pleasure Seekers Inspired Choices Network Hosts Author Milica Jelenic   Amazon.com – https://www.amazon.com/dp/1997615401 Amazon.ca – https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1997615401     ~ More About The Pleasure Zone ~ Milica Jelenic is a Sex & Intimacy Coach, Speaker, and Pleasure Advocate who empowers individuals and couples to cultivate deeper intimacy, authentic connection, and greater vitality.

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT HEALTH OR MEDICAL ADVICE. The views and experiences shared in this episode are for educational and informational purposes only. Always consult your healthcare practitioner before making any health-related decisions.In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi shares the powerful and deeply personal healing journey of Jane, whose life story is a testament to resilience, transformation, and the possibility of rebuilding after unimaginable pain.Jane opens up about beginning to drink at just 11 years old as a way to cope with bullying, family dysfunction, trauma, and the deep belief that something was wrong with her. What began as an attempt to numb emotional pain developed into years of addiction, repeated rehabilitation stays, shame, trauma, and a struggle to find her own worth.Through decades of challenges—including substance abuse, emotional suffering, physical health struggles, strokes, and moments when she felt beyond saving—Jane discovered that healing required more than changing behaviors. It required transforming the beliefs she held about herself. Through recovery work, affirmations, spirituality, and a deeper understanding of consciousness, she began shifting from a place of shame and self-destruction into self-love, empowerment, and purpose.Together, Simone and Jane explore the connection between trauma, addiction, shame, the nervous system, and the power of changing the stories we tell ourselves. This inspiring conversation reminds listeners that healing is possible, no matter how far someone feels they have fallen.KEY TAKEAWAYSAddiction is often connected to unresolved emotional pain, trauma, and the desire to escape suffering—not simply a lack of willpower.Changing an addiction without addressing the deeper wound can leave the same patterns showing up in different ways.Shame can become a powerful cycle that fuels relapse, self-destruction, and feelings of hopelessness.Our thoughts, beliefs, and inner dialogue can play an important role in how we experience ourselves and our lives.No one is beyond healing or transformation. Even after years of struggle, it is possible to reclaim your power, rebuild your life, and reconnect with your worth.BEST MOMENTS“It's weird that you shared that—that's my life… that's me, and I survived, and then I thrived.”“Alcohol hijacks your brain so fast.”“I started telling myself new truths… I am powerful, I am loved, and I am capable of healing.”“You are not broken. You are deeply loved, and you have more power to change than you realize.”“Through compassion and self-love, we can begin to transform the parts of ourselves we once thought were impossible to heal.”GUEST INFORMATIONJane is a survivor, spiritual teacher, and advocate for personal transformation whose journey reflects the power of healing after trauma, addiction, and profound life challenges. After years of struggling with addiction, shame, and physical limitations, Jane discovered a new relationship with herself through recovery, spiritual growth, and conscious transformation. Today, she shares her story to inspire others to recognize their own worth, reconnect with their inner strength, and believe that change is always possible.Reach out to Jane Dawson: janemdawson@gmail.comHOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a seasoned coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential.

One of the most downloaded episodes in Health Confidential history is back.For decades, we've been told that cholesterol is one of the primary causes of heart disease and that lowering it is the key to protecting our hearts.But what if the story isn't that simple?In this episode of Health Confidential, I sit down with Dr. Stephen Hussey—chiropractor, functional medicine practitioner, author, and heart attack survivor—to explore the assumptions many of us have accepted about cholesterol, heart disease, inflammation, and cardiovascular health.After experiencing a heart attack himself, Dr. Hussey began questioning many of the ideas he had been taught about the heart and what truly drives cardiovascular disease. What followed was a journey that challenged conventional thinking and led him to a very different understanding of heart health.In this conversation, we discuss:• The cholesterol myth and why it remains so controversial• Why healthy people can still suffer heart attacks• The role of inflammation and metabolism in cardiovascular disease• What Dr. Hussey learned after his own heart attack• Why questioning assumptions in medicine matters• A different perspective on how the heart functionsWhether you're concerned about your cholesterol, have been prescribed a statin, or simply want to understand heart health from a different perspective, this conversation will give you plenty to think about.Connect with Dr. Stephen HusseyWebsite: https://resourceyourhealth.comInstagram: @drstephenhusseBooks: Book LinksConnect with Simone GisondiInstagram: @simone.gisondiWebsite: https://www.simonegisondi.com/If you enjoyed this episode, please follow the show, leave a rating and review, and share this conversation with someone who has ever been told their cholesterol is “too high.”⸻Disclaimer: This podcast is intended to encourage education, critical thinking, and informed conversations about health.

Always consult your healthcare practitioner before making any health-related decisions. In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with MJ Renshaw, founder of The Being Method, somatic breathwork educator, bestselling author, and mentor, to explore how breath can become one of the most powerful tools for healing, transformation, and self-discovery.Drawing from her background in philosophy, osteopathy, and breathwork, MJ shares her deeply personal journey through loss, trauma, emotional suppression, and chronic stress, and how discovering breathwork transformed her relationship with her body, mind, and spirit. Together, Simone and MJ discuss the profound connection between breathing patterns, nervous system regulation, emotional wellbeing, and overall health.The conversation explores how common habits such as mouth breathing and chronic hyperventilation may contribute to stress, anxiety, and illness, while also examining emerging research on breath, mitochondrial health, trauma, and longevity. Blending science with spirituality, MJ explains how conscious breathing can help release stored emotional pain, reconnect individuals with their intuition, and support deep personal healing. This inspiring discussion offers a fresh perspective on how something as simple and accessible as the breath can become a gateway to lasting transformation.KEY TAKEAWAYSMost people breathe inefficiently, often through chronic hyperventilation or mouth breathing, which may contribute to ongoing stress and nervous system dysregulation.Breathing patterns and VO₂ max are among the strongest indicators of long-term health and longevity, yet are often overlooked in conventional healthcare.Trauma may be carried not only emotionally but also within the body, and breathwork can support the release of stored stress and unresolved emotional experiences.Breathwork serves as a bridge between science and spirituality, offering practical tools for both physiological regulation and personal growth.Healing often involves emotional release, and conscious breathing can help people reconnect with themselves, access deeper awareness, and create meaningful change in their lives.BEST MOMENTS"I just became really interested in making my pain my mission.""It's not just you thinking about someone bullying you one time… at the cellular level, we can hold trauma.""There isn't a person out there who cannot be helped with breathwork.""You can read about it all you want, but you're not going to get good at it until you actually do it.""This is not just going to change your physiology and change your lineage, but it's also going to change your personality."GUEST INFORMATIONMJ Renshaw is the founder of The Being Method, a somatic breathwork educator, bestselling author, and mentor whose work bridges science and spirituality. Drawing from her backgrounds in philosophy, osteopathy, and breathwork, she helps people regulate their nervous systems, release emotional patterns, and reconnect with themselves through embodied healing.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host What if bondage is about more than ropes, cuffs, or restraint? For many people, consensual bondage can create a unique pathway to nervous system regulation, helping the body shift out of stress and into a state of presence, trust, and connection. When practiced safely and consensually, bondage can help quiet mental chatter, increase body awareness, and create a container where participants feel held, supported, and focused on the present moment. We'll look at the science behind stress responses, the role of trust, and why surrendering control can sometimes feel deeply restorative. Whether you're curious about bondage, already exploring it, or simply interested in nervous system health, this conversation offers insights into the intersection of pleasure, psychology, and well-being.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host Could some of the challenges you experience today have roots before birth? Trauma can be carried through a trauma womb during pregnancy. When a mother experiences ongoing stress, fear, or unresolved trauma, her body communicates these experiences to her developing baby. The trauma womb becomes the baby's first environment, where signals of safety or stress are received. Understanding the impact of a trauma womb can help us better understand ourselves and our healing journey.

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT HEALTH OR MEDICAL ADVICE. The views and experiences shared in this episode are for educational and informational purposes only. Always consult your healthcare practitioner before making any health-related decisions. In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Lisa M. Harrison, a researcher and speaker known for her work exploring consciousness, human potential, and the nature of reality. For nearly two decades, Lisa has encouraged people to question conventional perspectives and examine the deeper relationship between awareness, perception, and what it means to be human.Together, Simone and Lisa explore the idea that unconditional love is humanity's original healing frequency and discuss how thoughts, beliefs, and self-perception may influence wellbeing. Drawing from her years of research, awakening experiences, and her widely discussed communication with a conscious intelligence she calls "Leeloo," Lisa shares her perspective on fear, sovereignty, intuition, heartbreak, and self-remembrance. This thought-provoking conversation invites listeners to reflect on healing, personal empowerment, and the connection between consciousness and transformation.KEY TAKEAWAYSThe body possesses an innate capacity for healing when supported by the right internal and external conditions.Thoughts, beliefs, and self-talk can significantly influence emotional well-being, behavior, and health outcomes.Unconditional love can be viewed as a foundational state that supports connection, resilience, and personal transformation.Fear and chronic stress can disconnect people from their sense of empowerment, intuition, and well-being.Difficult experiences, including heartbreak and loss, can become catalysts for profound growth, self-discovery, and expanded awareness.BEST MOMENTS"The body in its infinite wisdom under divine design can heal anything, and it's equipped to heal anything.""If we truly understood the power of our thoughts and our words, we would be different people, and we would be in a completely different physical state.""Unconditional love is our foundational frequency. Love is not an emotion—it's a state of being, a literal frequency.""If we were left alone with no interference, no distortion, no manipulation, no lies, we would naturally rise into that state of love.""Through absolute heartbreak comes heart expansion—and with that comes consciousness expansion and touching that frequency of unconditional love."GUEST INFORMATIONLisa M. Harrison is a researcher, speaker, and consciousness explorer who has spent nearly two decades investigating the nature of reality, awakening, human potential, and the intersection of spirituality and lived experience. Through projects including Deconstructing the Construct, Energetic Updates, and The Collective Imagination, Lisa continues to support individuals navigating their own awakening and self-discovery journeys.Website: www.lisamharrison.com/ YouTube: www.youtube.com/@lisamharrison HOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a seasoned coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential.

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi explores the powerful connection between emotional healing, spiritual awakening, nervous system regulation, and physical recovery through the extraordinary healing journey of Malka Shivdasani. This conversation dives into holistic healing, mind-body medicine, trauma release, meditation, and the emotional roots of chronic illness and cancer.After years of living as a people-pleasing wife, mother, and business owner, Malka experienced a major spiritual awakening following her son's devastating spinal cord injury in 2006. Searching for healing beyond conventional medicine, she immersed herself in meditation, emotional healing, subconscious reprogramming, and the teachings of renowned spiritual teachers including Joe Dispenza, Wayne Dyer, Louise Hay, and Bruce Lipton. Years later, in 2024, Malka was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer, including lymph node involvement and a rectal tumor. Rather than pursuing chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery, she chose a deeply integrative path focused on meditation, hypnotherapy, trauma healing, emotional release, energetic healing, nervous system healing, and holistic medical support. Through deep inner transformation and unwavering trust in the body's innate intelligence, Malka eventually received scans showing no visible cancer.Together, Simone and Malka discuss colon cancer healing, emotional trauma, spiritual healing, self-love, subconscious beliefs, and how chronic stress and self-abandonment can impact long-term health. This episode is a powerful exploration of holistic cancer recovery, personal transformation, and reclaiming the body's ability to heal.KEY TAKEAWAYS• Chronic people-pleasing and self-abandonment can contribute to emotional and physical imbalance.• Trauma and unresolved emotions may remain stored in the nervous system and body.• Meditation, subconscious healing, and spiritual practices can support emotional transformation.• Healing often requires addressing emotional, energetic, mental, and physical health together.• Listening to intuition and inner alignment can play a powerful role in personal healing journeys.BEST MOMENTS• “There's this wisdom, and it's so beautiful inside that what we carry, the power that we carry.”• “Of course nothing worked, and then we started going inward, of course the way out is in.”• “So, as we were healing, we were healing the community.”• “It was feeding the fear and doing it anyway, because I knew I did not want to do chemo.”• “These thoughts are just coming in to be released. It's all about a healing process.”GUEST INFORMATIONMalka ShivdasaniSoul alignment coach, meditation teacher, and founder of Infinite Love meditation center helping individuals reconnect with their inner healing power through meditation, emotional healing, trauma release, and spiritual transformation.Instagram: malkasshivHOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential, dedicated to exploring root-cause healing through nutrition, mindset, emotional wellness, and holistic health practices.#ColonCancer #ColonCancerHealing #Stage3ColonCancer #CancerRecovery #HolisticHealing #MindBodyHealing #MeditationHealing #TraumaHealing #EmotionalHealing #SpiritualHealing #IntegrativeMedicine #NervousSystemHealing #SubconsciousHealing #AlternativeHealing #HolisticHealth #WellnessPodcast #HealthPodcast #CancerJourney #SelfHealing #JoeDispenzaSimone is a Holistic Health Practitioner and researcher exploring the deeper biological, emotional, and environmental roots of disease.On this podcast, she examines how health, trauma, consciousness, lifestyle, and biology interesect and how the instructions we give the body through food, environment, belief, and emotional regulation shape our health outcomes.Her work focuses on helping individuals understand the real drivers of illness and reclaim their health through customized lifestyle, nutritional, and mindset changes.If you're navigating a health challenge and would like personalized guidance, Simone offers a limited number of private consultations.

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition: Using Saliva Testing, Food Sensitivity Labs, and Lifestyle to Find Root Causes: Reed Davis, Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) and Certified Nutritional Therapist (CNT), is founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN). He discusses using functional testing alongside conventional care to uncover “dysfunction” when standard labs appear normal. Davis describes assessing adrenal and metabolic stress via saliva testing for circadian cortisol patterns, cortisol-DHEA balance, sex hormones, secretory IgA, and melatonin, emphasizing clinical correlation and individualized “studies of one.” He outlines an approach targeting multiple “healing opportunities” (H-I-D-D-E-N: hormones, immune, digestion, detoxification, energy, nervous system) and applying D-R-E-S-S (diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, supplementation) rather than relying on supplements alone. A case example links chronic hives, medication-related weight gain, and food triggers identified through additional testing, including the Mediator Release Test. The discussion also covers stress-driven gut dysbiosis, digestion decline, and EFT tapping for stress-related symptoms, and notes FDN practitioners can be found via FDNtraining.com/medicine.

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi explores financial stress through a powerful and often overlooked lens—its direct impact on human health. Rather than viewing money challenges as purely external or practical issues, Simone reframes financial pressure as a chronic stressor that affects the nervous system, sleep, mood, inflammation, relationships, and even the body's ability to heal. Through a deeply personal story of her parents' divorce and the sudden loss of financial security, she illustrates how quickly money-related stress can push individuals into survival mode, shaping every decision from a place of fear rather than clarity.Joining Simone is Mika Altidor, entrepreneur, vegan café owner, and co-host of Get Obsessed, who shares her perspective on financial stress behind the scenes of entrepreneurship and success. Together, they explore how inherited money beliefs, lack of financial literacy, and predatory systems keep people stuck in cycles of stress and poor decision-making. This conversation bridges financial health and physical well-being, offering a new perspective on how true healing requires both inner work and greater awareness of the systems we navigate daily.KEY TAKEAWAYSFinancial stress is a health issue that directly impacts the nervous system and overall well-being.The body records money-related pressure, even when we try to ignore or downplay it.Inherited money beliefs and past experiences shape current financial behaviors.Avoidance or reactive decision-making can deepen both financial and health challenges.Financial literacy is essential to avoid predatory systems and create long-term stability.BEST MOMENTS“This is not just a money issue. It's a human issue—and very often, a health issue.”“The body records that pressure, and you cannot separate healing from the conditions a person is living under.”“A person living under financial fear is living in chronic survival—and that affects everything.”“We live our entire lives through our nervous system… including how we make and experience money.”“Stress is stress. The body just knows it's in survival mode.”GUEST INFORMATIONMika AltidorEntrepreneur, vegan café owner, podcaster, and creator of manifestation-based tools.

In this episode, Jennifer Urezzio welcomes Claudine Francois to explore the powerful connection between the soul and the body—especially during midlife. Claudine shares a deeply relatable truth: many women reach midlife feeling like their body has suddenly “betrayed” them. But in reality, the body is not working against them—it is communicating. The challenge is that most of us were never taught how to understand that language. Through her own journey from high-performing CFO to burnout, Claudine reveals how years of pushing through exhaustion and ignoring subtle signals eventually led to louder, unavoidable symptoms. What we often label as “problems” are actually messages asking us to listen, slow down, and reconnect. Jennifer reframes this beautifully through a Soul Language lens: the body is not something to control—it is something to co-create with. The invitation is to move from force and productivity into partnership and awareness. ✨ Key takeaways: Your body is not betraying you—it is speaking to you Symptoms are communication, not punishment Ignoring small nudges leads to louder interruptions Alignment comes from collaboration between soul and body True transformation begins with listening, not fixing This conversation ultimately reminds us that when we reconnect with both our soul and body, we unlock energy, clarity, and a more sustainable way of living.

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi explores type 2 diabetes through a deeply unconventional lens—challenging the belief that chronic illness is purely genetic or permanent. Instead, this conversation invites listeners to consider the powerful role of identity, belief, and the mind–body connection in shaping health outcomes. Framed as an educational discussion, this episode encourages self-inquiry, personal responsibility, and working alongside trusted practitioners while exploring holistic approaches to healing.Joining Simone is Amber Hayes, who shares her powerful journey from a type 2 diabetes diagnosis in 2019—with an A1C as high as 12.9 despite medication—to restoring her health through inner transformation. After years of fatigue, weight gain, and believing she was “genetically destined” for illness, Amber began to question her identity and adopted new practices including meditation, affirmations, self-love, and fasting. Within months, her A1C dropped to a normal 5.5. Together, Simone and Amber explore the role of belief, the nervous system, and energetic inputs—such as thoughts, words, and environment—in influencing the body's ability to heal.KEY TAKEAWAYS• Belief and identity can directly influence physical health and disease outcomes.• The body responds to the stories, diagnoses, and expectations we accept as true.• Self-love and emotional healing are essential components of physical recovery.• Fasting can support both physical reset and deeper emotional processing.• Thoughts, words, and environmental inputs act as signals that the body responds to.BEST MOMENTS• “I decided one day that it was enough. Diabetes does not exist in my body.”• “You don't have a soul. You are a soul that has a body temporarily to experience this place.”• “When you don't love yourself, you tear down your own cells.”• “Our spoken word is the will of the soul… the body has no choice but to respond.”• “Your body is waiting for instruction… it will move toward that blueprint.”GUEST INFORMATIONAmber Hayes - Speaker and advocate for mind-body healing, sharing her journey of reversing type 2 diabetes through identity work, self-love, and holistic practices.HOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a seasoned coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential.

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi explores addiction recovery through a powerful and unconventional lens—seeing addiction not as a failure of willpower, but as a nervous system response to unresolved emotional pain. This conversation dives into the deeper connection between trauma, identity, and coping mechanisms, offering a holistic perspective on healing addiction from the inside out. Designed for educational purposes, this episode encourages listeners to explore root-cause healing, self-awareness, and integrative approaches to emotional and physical well-being.Joining Simone is Andrew Spaulding, a successful rock musician and record label owner, who shares his real-life journey through alcoholism, sobriety, and identity transformation. Andrew opens up about generational trauma, emotional suppression, and how environments like the music industry and nightlife culture normalized his drinking habits. He reveals how one simple decision—to stop drinking for a single day—became the foundation for long-term sobriety, weight loss, and lifestyle change. Through deep inner work, including the teachings of Dr. Joe Dispenza and a Kundalini awakening experience, Andrew describes how true addiction recovery happens through a shift in identity, where healing the mind and body leads to lasting transformation.KEY TAKEAWAYSAddiction recovery begins by understanding addiction as a coping mechanism, not a personal failure.Nervous system regulation and trauma healing are essential for long-term sobriety.Generational trauma and early-life experiences shape addictive behaviors.Environment and social circles can normalize addiction and delay awareness.True healing comes from identity transformation, not just behavior change.BEST MOMENTS“You know, addiction is not a problem to the user… it's a solution.”“I didn't want my kids to grow up with that… I didn't want them to make that conclusion about me.”“I woke up one day and said, I'm not gonna drink.” “I'm gonna go one day… I'm gonna give myself a chance.”“When that identity corroded… the spirit became alive in the body, and the ego was now secondary.”GUEST INFORMATIONAndrew Spaulding the founder of Corpse Paint Records is a heavy-metal label focused on authentic, artist-driven projects. With a background as a fan, touring crew member, and industry insider, he later launched the label to bring intentional releases to life, including the SUN DONT SHINE supergroup he conceptualized and executive produced. Today, he blends music with personal transformation, viewing authentic creativity as a form of alignment and healing.Website: https://corpsepaintrecords.com/pages/main Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/Corpsepaintrecords Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Corpsepaintrecords/ HOST BIOSimone Gisondi is a seasoned coach, published author, and host of Health Confidential.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host Sacred union is the powerful meeting point where the divine masculine and divine feminine come together in harmony. Sacred union is not about gender roles or who leads and who follows. Instead, sacred union is the integration of complementary energies that exist within every person. When these energies work together rather than in opposition, they create deeper connection, stronger relationships, and a more embodied sense of self. In this episode, we explore what happens when the divine masculine and divine feminine move beyond separation and misunderstanding into conscious partnership. For centuries, many cultures elevated the masculine qualities of action, control, and logic while undervaluing the feminine qualities of intuition, receptivity, and flow. True balance invites us to honour both energies and recognize the wisdom each brings to our lives, our relationships, and our sensual expression. When these energies are integrated, they can transform how we experience intimacy, leadership, creativity, pleasure, and emotional connection. Rather than competing forces, the divine masculine and feminine become allies that support personal growth, erotic intelligence, and authentic partnership. In this episode you will discover: • What sacred union really means • How imbalance shows up in modern culture • How integrated energies deepen intimacy and pleasure • Practical ways to embody sacred union daily Join Milica Jelenic, Sex & Intimacy Coach and Holistic Health Practitioner, on this episode of The Pleasure Zone as we explore “Sacred Union & Coming Together" Grab your Yes, No, Maybe list - all about Playful Tips for Pleasure here    Light From The Shadows: Enriching The Lives Of Others Inspired Choices Network Hosts Author Milica Jelenic   Amazon.com – https://www.amazon.com/dp/1738249417 Amazon.ca – https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1738249417     ~ More About The Pleasure Zone ~ Milica Jelenic is a Sex & Intimacy Coach.

In this episode of the Journey Beyond Divorce Podcast, I'm speaking directly to the men who are walking through the intensity of high conflict divorce — the pressure, the triggers, the confusion, and the deep internal unraveling that often comes with it. Men in high conflict divorce are asked to hold an extraordinary amount: to respond instead of react, to stay grounded when provoked, and to lead even when everything around them feels uncertain. And while I coach men through these challenges every single day, I also know that some truths land more powerfully when they come from another man who embodies the discipline, steadiness, and intentional leadership required to rise during divorce. That's why I invited Michael Holt, founder of the international Savage & Saint Collective, to join me for this conversation. Michael has dedicated his life to helping men reclaim emotional sovereignty, cultivate presence, and embody a form of masculine leadership that is rooted in clarity rather than chaos. His work blends meditation, martial arts, psychology, holistic health, and serious inner discipline — and it aligns deeply with what I teach men navigating high conflict divorce: that the real power lies not in controlling others, but in mastering yourself. Michael and I explore the patterns that keep men stuck in reactivity during divorce and the internal shifts required to break those cycles. We talk about the cost of abandoning your center, how quickly men give away their power when triggered, and what it takes to stay grounded when you feel attacked, misunderstood, or overwhelmed. Michael offers a male perspective on strength that doesn't rely on force, suppression, or avoidance, but instead comes from presence, vitality, and self-awareness — qualities that become essential when the stakes are high and the conflict feels relentless. Together, we dig into the difference between reactive masculinity and embodied leadership, and why men who learn to regulate their nervous system and stay anchored in who they are gain far more influence — not just in their divorce, but in their lives, relationships, and fatherhood. We discuss how men can cultivate discipline, stability, and clarity even in the middle of legal battles, emotional turmoil, and the dismantling of a marriage. This is the kind of conversation that gives men direction, grounding, and a roadmap for showing up as the man they want to be, not the man the conflict tries to turn them into. Michael Holt is a powerful example of what it looks like to live the work rather than talk about it. His Savage & Saint Collective supports men around the world in strengthening their inner foundation so they can show up with integrity, courage, and calm — exactly what is needed in high conflict divorce. If you're a man navigating divorce and you've been searching for guidance from someone who truly understands the internal journey you're on, this episode will offer the clarity and steadiness you've been craving. This is about reclaiming yourself, rebuilding your center, and stepping into the kind of leadership that can change the trajectory of your life.
