Angela talks to Professor Stuart Philips, who challenges the long-standing "Anabolic Window" myth, revealing that muscle sensitivity to protein actually lasts up to 48 hours post-exercise rather than a mere 30-minute window.  The conversation cuts through the noise of modern protein obsession, establishing that while the RDA is a baseline, the true sweet spot for muscle synthesis lies between 1.2g and 1.6g per kilogram of body weight. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: The protein "sweet spot": While the baseline requirement is 0.8g/kg, optimal benefits for muscle maintenance and growth occur between 1.2g and 1.6g per kilogram. The myth of the 30-minute window: The "Anabolic Window" is much larger than previously thought; muscles remain sensitive to protein for up to 48 hours after a workout. Dosage limits: For most people, including perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, 30g to 40g of protein per meal is the effective limit for stimulating new muscle growth. Carbohydrates are essential: Despite modern "carb-phobia," carbohydrates are the primary drivers of high-intensity performance TIMESTAMPS [01:50] The confusion between calculating protein [03:52] The "Baking the Cake" analogy [05:54] Debunking the idea that you can only absorb 20g of protein at a time.

Team USA makes history as the United States men's hockey team captures gold in a thrilling victory, with Jack Hughes scoring the unforgettable game-winner. Pride for the USA filled the locker room — and even Kash Patel joined the celebration as President Trump invited the team to the State of the Union.But while America celebrated, the media meltdown began. HuffPost complained about USA chants, the White House X account clowned Canada, and Tucker Carlson found himself under fire. From accusations involving Israel and Epstein's island to deleted posts and major backtracking, critics including Ben Shapiro, Eitan Fischberger, and Yoram Hazony weighed in.Meanwhile, SCOTUS ruled against Trump on tariffs — and Trump complied. Stephen Miller and Scott Bessent break down what's next as the administration responds to the Supreme Court decision. AOC, Gavin Newsom, Katie Porter, Jasmine Crockett, Adam Schiff, and others add fuel to the political firestorm.SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS TO SUPPORT OUR SHOW!Schedule your FREE risk review from Bulwark Capital at https://KnowYourRiskPodcast.comMake the switch and feel the difference of truly fast, modern antivirus protection from Webroot.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on Wednesday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they celebrate Team USA's Winter Olympics victory, push back on media reluctance to cheer American success, break down the debate over proof of citizenship to vote and the SAVE Act, and examine the left's increasingly crude and demeaning campaign tactics.First, they celebrate Team USA's successful Winter Olympics, including the dramatic overtime gold medal win in hockey on Sunday. They applaud hockey hero Jack Hughes for his unabashed love for the U.S. and react to coverage from outlets like HuffPost that seemed reluctant to fully celebrate American success while President Trump is in office.Next, Scot and Greg take apart arguments from Gavin Newsom and Bernie Sanders, who criticize the SAVE Act's proof-of-citizenship requirement by claiming difficulty in obtaining birth certificates. They also note the irony as New Yorik City requires five forms of identification before hiring people as emergency snow shovelers.Finally, they're disgusted as Newsom demeans black voters by how he tries to identify with them and a prominent Illinois U.S. Senate candidate's only campaign message is vulgarities aimed at President Trump.

Something special happened at the Winter Olympics. It’s a rare moment when a sports team can unite the country. But that’s what happened on Sunday – when the men’s hockey team won not only the gold – but they won the hearts of a nation. Millions of Americans watched the game from the living rooms and neighborhood pubs and many even watched on their smart phones – tucked away in pews during church. Which could explain why there were spontaneous shouts of “praise the Lord” during the preacher’s sermon. But not everyone was proud to be an American on Sunday. Huffington Post writer Monica Torres penned a scathing attack on our country. She said that many of our fellow countrymen are turned off by waving Old Glory and chanting, “USA.” Now you understand why many news organizations are filing for bankruptcy. If you really do get turned off by the red, white and blue – I’d recommend moving to Canada. I have much more to say about this on my website, ToddStarnes.com.

8:00 — Christopher Mathias is a journalist covering the far right. He was previously a senior reporter at HuffPost. His latest book is “To Catch a Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right.” The post Fund Drive Special: Christopher Mathias on Antifascist Organizing and Strategy appeared first on KPFA.

Angela talks to Ari Whitten, the founder of The Energy Blueprint and an expert in mitochondrial health about his comprehensive approach to overcoming fatigue and optimising energy levels by addressing the cellular engines of the body—the mitochondria.  Ari explains how modern lifestyle factors, such as poor light exposure, chronic stress, and nutritional deficiencies, signal the mitochondria to enter a defence mode rather than an energy-producing mode WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: The Cell Danger Response (CDR): Mitochondria have a dual role; they are not just energy producers but also environmental sensors that shift into a defensive state when they perceive threats Circadian Rhythm and Light: Proper exposure to natural light in the morning and minimising artificial blue light at night is critical for regulating the mitochondrial clock and ensuring deep, restorative sleep. Hormetic Stress: Introducing controlled stressors—such as high-intensity exercise, cold exposure, or heat—can actually strengthen mitochondria and increase their capacity to produce energy The Importance of Nutrient Density: Specific nutrients, including CoQ10, magnesium, and polyphenols, are essential "fuel" for the electron transport chain TIMESTAMPS [00:04:15] The "Energy Gap" [00:18:30] Mitochondria as Sensors [00:32:45] The Power of Red Light Therapy [00:52:10] Building Metabolic Flexibility VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy  Find out your biological age and how your daily habits are influencing it with DNA, bloodwork and microbiome testing with a Stride One membership - visit https://www.getstride.com/angela/ for 10% off.

On episode 253, we welcome Christopher Mathias to discuss the meaning of fascism and what ANTIFA is, fascism's ideological roots in greed and domination, the Charlottesville protests, fascist masking and the threat of being charmed by appearances, whether we owe it to fascism to allow for open debates, whether fascists care about finding the truth, if it's possible to differentiate between conservatives and fascists at this point, and why members of ANTIFA would disagree with being labeled extremists. Christopher Mathias is a journalist covering the far right. Previously a senior reporter at HuffPost, he's done work for the Guardian, MSNBC, Zeteo, and WNYC. His reporting chronicled the rapid radicalization of the GOP, and has helped unmask white supremacist cops, soldiers, teachers, and politicians.

Angela examines the intricacies of training for muscle strength, hypertrophy, and endurance, referencing a key paper by Brad Schoenfeld that outlines effective rep ranges for different fitness goals.  She discusses the importance of neuromuscular adaptation for beginners and suggest starting with bodyweight exercises before progressing to kettlebells and heavier weights, as well as the significance of tailored training programs, especially for women undergoing menopause, advocating for high-intensity interval training and heavier lifting. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Training Ranges: Hypertrophy is typically achieved with 8 to 12 reps, strength with 1 to 5 reps, and endurance with 15 or more reps. It's important to follow a structured program to maximise results. Neuromuscular Adaptation: Beginners will experience significant improvements through neuromuscular adaptation, which involves learning proper movement patterns. Starting with bodyweight exercises like squats and pushups is effective. Progression: As individuals advance, they should gradually incorporate resistance training, starting with bodyweight exercises, then moving to bands, and eventually to weights like kettlebells for functional movements. Training for Life: Emphasis should be placed on training that prepares individuals for everyday activities, such as lifting children or carrying luggage, rather than just focusing on traditional weightlifting.

Angela addresses the common misconception that a slowed metabolism is the primary cause of weight gain during midlife, particularly for women experiencing menopause. Instead, the focus is on the impact of visceral fat and insulin exposure, which can lead to stubborn belly fat.  Angela episode outlines five actionable levers to combat these issues, including increasing daily movement, prioritising resistance training, strategically using high-intensity interval training (HIIT), choosing fibrous whole food carbohydrates, and improving sleep and stress resilience WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Insulin Exposure: Elevated insulin levels throughout the day hinder the body's ability to mobilise stored fat. Improving insulin sensitivity is crucial for effective fat loss, particularly around the abdomen. Five Effective Levers: To combat midlife belly fat, focus on five key strategies: Break up long periods of sitting and increase daily movement. Prioritise resistance training three times a week. Use high-intensity interval training (HIIT) strategically. Choose fibrous whole food carbohydrates instead of cutting carbs entirely. Improve sleep quality and manage stress to enhance metabolic health. Personalised Approach: The most effective strategy for reducing belly fat varies for each individual. Factors such as sleep disruption, stress load, glucose swings, and training intensity should be considered TIMESTAMPS [00:01:35] Visceral fat and health risks.

An anti-fascist spy handed American officials evidence of murderous intent from a Nazi planning server — and they declined to act.About the GuestChristopher Mathias is a journalist covering the far right, formerly a senior reporter at HuffPost, with work appearing in The Guardian, The Nation, MSNBC, Zeteo, and WNYC. His reporting has helped unmask white supremacist cops, soldiers, teachers, and politicians, and he was a Deadline Awards finalist for feature writing. He is originally from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and lives in New York. His new book, To Catch a Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right (Atria Books), is out now.About the EpisodeDays after Jonathan Rauch's influential Atlantic essay announced he'd moved from fascism skeptic to fascism believer, Christopher Mathias joins the show to discuss his new book — a deeply reported investigation into the decentralized network of anti-fascist activists who infiltrate, monitor, and expose neo-Nazis and white supremacists operating in positions of power across America.The conversation quickly moves beyond whether Trump is a fascist to the harder questions his book raises: Who gets to decide who is exposed? What rights to privacy do members of extremist groups retain? Is unmasking community self-defense or vigilantism? And does the same logic that justifies exposing a neo-Nazi EMT extend to the tens of thousands of ICE agents now conducting raids on American streets?Timeline00:00 Introduction Jonathan Rauch's Atlantic essay and the renewed fascism debate01:10 Meet Christopher Mathias Introducing the book and the journalist behind it01:45 The Greenville Moment When Mathias first used “fascist” in a headline after watching Trump whip a crowd into chanting “Send her back”02:40 Defining the F-Word Fascism as a right-wing politics of domination; Langston Hughes recognizing it in the 1930s before the word arrived04:15 The Hard Question If MAGA is a fascist movement, are the 70-plus million who voted for Trump fascists too?05:55 The Worst of the Worst Why the book targets explicit neo-Nazis in positions of power, not ordinary Trump supporters08:15 Who Decides? Privacy, accountability, and whether everyone at Charlottesville deserves exposure10:45 Antifascist Amnesty Leave the movement and we leave you alone; return and we publish12:30 The Equivalence Trap Why Mathias rejects the idea that this is just radicals exposing radicals14:05 From Neo-Nazis to ICE How anti-fascist tactics are now used to identify masked federal agents17:15 Where Does It End? Drawing lines between violent enforcement and bureaucratic participation19:40 “Just Following Orders” Why some orders shouldn't be followed, and the occupation of Minneapolis21:30 The Battle Over Shame Competing databases, surveillance, and what America should be ashamed of23:15 The Spy Who Warned Charlottesville An infiltrator uncovers plans for violence that officials ignore26:00 Minneapolis as Model “We protect us” and a blueprint for grassroots resistance28:45 The Underground War Intelligence, counterintelligence, and the personal cost of exposure30:30 Closing Fascism as a snake eating its own tail and the urgent task of limiting the damageLinks & ReferencesMentioned in this episode:Jonathan Rauch, “Yes, It's Fascism” — The Atlantic (January 2026)To Catch a Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right by Christopher Mathias (Atria Books, February 2026)Christopher Mathias reporting archiveFollow Christopher Mathias: BlueSky | XAbout Keen On America Nobody asks more impertinent questions than the Anglo-American writer, filmmaker and Silicon Valley entrepreneur Andrew Keen.

When you're in a high-conflict divorce, the behaviors often feel indistinguishable. Gaslighting. Manipulation. Control. Chaos. Emotional whiplash. It's why so many people fixate on one question: Is my spouse a narcissist? In this episode, I'm joined by licensed psychotherapist and narcissistic abuse expert Chelsey Brooke Cole to explore a deeper truth—when the impact on you feels the same, does the label actually matter? We unpack what narcissistic abuse truly is, how it overlaps with other forms of emotional and psychological abuse, and why abusers and narcissists often behave in nearly identical ways during divorce. Especially when they're losing control. Especially when the legal process becomes another tool for domination, punishment, and destabilization. This conversation is not about diagnosing your ex. It's about understanding patterns so you can stop internalizing blame, stop doubting your reality, and stop negotiating from fear. We talk about the internal experience of these dynamics—the fog, the shame, the fragmentation, the nervous system overload—and how those symptoms affect your ability to think clearly, make decisions, and advocate for yourself and your children. Most importantly, we focus on what actually helps. How to protect yourself emotionally and strategically during a high-conflict divorce. How to anticipate predictable escalations. How to step out of reactivity and into steadiness. And how to begin rebuilding your sense of identity, self-worth, and agency after prolonged psychological control. If you're divorcing someone who feels impossible, unpredictable, or emotionally dangerous, this episode offers clarity, validation, and a path forward rooted in reality—not labels. Chelsey Brooke Cole is a licensed psychotherapist, certified partner trauma therapist, bestselling author of If Only I'd Known!, and a nationally recognized expert in narcissistic abuse and complex trauma. She has been featured in USA Today, Psychology Today, HuffPost, WKRN News 2, and FOX 26 Houston, and supports thousands of survivors through her clinical work, education, and trauma-informed programs. This episode is for anyone navigating a high-conflict divorce who needs to understand what's happening, why it's so destabilizing, and how to move forward without losing themselves in the process.

Angela takes a look at the essentials of daily detoxification with executive wellness coach and Ideal Day podcast host, Adam Parker.  Moving beyond the hype of fad cleanses, Adam and Angela explore how our bodies naturally process modern environmental toxins, from heavy metals to microplastics, and why proactive support is vital in 2026.  From the controversial benefits of coffee enemas to the science-backed power of sauna protocols, mineral replenishment, and binders, this conversation provides a roadmap for boosting metabolic flexibility, clearing brain fog, and reclaiming your cellular energy. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Detox is a Continuous Process: The body is always detoxing through breath, sweat, and elimination; however, the modern toxic load often exceeds our natural capacity The Bottom-Up Protocol: Effective detoxification should follow a specific sequence starting at the colon (the bottom of the drainage funnel) and moving up to the liver, gallbladder, lymph, and finally the cells The Role of Lipophilic Toxins: Many modern man-made chemicals are fat-soluble (lipophilic) and store themselves in fat tissue Minerals as the "Spark Plugs": Heavy metals often compete with essential minerals for cell receptors. Replenishing with fulvic and humic minerals or unrefined sea salt is a foundational daily habit to push out heavy metals and fuel metabolic pathways. TIMESTAMPS [01:41] — Defining Detox: Adam explains why the body needs extra support in today's environment compared to a decade ago. [05:25] — Fat Tissue & Toxin Storage: A discussion on why toxins hide in body fat and the symptoms that occur when they are mobilised. [08:52] — The Supplement Strategy: Deep dive into magnesium for the colon and milk thistle/dandelion for stagnant bile flow in the liver. [11:51] — The Coffee Enema Debate: Adam breaks down the 100-year history and the hepatic portal vein mechanism behind this controversial practice. [17:09] — Maximum Sauna Benefits: How to use binders, hydration, and "sweat-wiping" techniques to optimise heat-based detoxification.

This episode explores the scientific nuances of workout timing, specifically tailored to women's health and physiology. The conversation delves into how circadian rhythms, cortisol levels, and appetite hormones like ghrelin influence the body's response to exercise at different times of the day.  We discuss findings from various training studies, highlighting that while morning workouts are particularly effective for reducing abdominal fat and visceral adiposity in women, afternoon sessions may offer superior strength and powergains due to enhanced neuromuscular recruitment WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Training in the morning, regardless of the exercise type (high-intensity or resistance), is notably effective for reducing abdominal fat Women tend to see greater strength gains and improved neuromuscular fibre recruitment when training in the afternoon or evening. The body's response to morning exercise is partly driven by a higher baseline of activated ghrelin While biology suggests optimal times for specific goals, consistency and sticking to a routine that fits one's lifestyle are ultimately the most important factors for long-term success. TIMESTAMPS 0:00 – Discussion on how morning workouts specifically target abdominal fat reduction in women. 0:25 – Explanation of why women generally experience greater strength and power in the afternoon. 0:44 – Overview of studies showing morning exercise reduces visceral fat in women, but not in men. 1:18 – Analysis of how the hunger hormone ghrelin triggers fat burning during early morning sessions. 1:43 – Insight into how resistance training signals the liver to use fatty acids for metabolism rather than storage. 2:38 – A concluding look at why personal consistency often outweighs biological "perfection" in a routine.

On today's show, host Dana Pellebon is joined by Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter, author of the new book, How I Know White People are Crazy and Other Stories: Notes from a Frustrated Black Psychologist. Dr. Lassiter works in private psychotherapy practice and provides culturally relevant care for marginalized professionals. He is part of the mere 1% of Black male psychologists in the country. His memoir makes the case for better cultural representation in the therapy field and defines the theory of the “whiteness mindset.”  Dr. Lassiter says that he's always been curious about why people do the things they do, and this led him to pursue a career in education followed by a psychotherapy practice. He describes his upbringing and the isolation and microaggressions he experienced in his graduate studies and clinical settings. He noticed that though the clinics he worked in were serving Black and Latinx clients, the vast majority of the therapists were white. And while working in the VA hospital in Indianapolis, he was the only Black male therapist. At that time, he read Toni Morrison's Playing in the Dark: Whiteness in the Literary Imagination and went on to write a corollary essay, “Whiteness in the Psychological Imagination,” that became the seed of his current book.  In How I Know White People are Crazy and Other Stories, Dr. Lassiter uses diagnostic criteria to define “the whiteness mindset” as a way of thinking and being that values materialism, competition, and individualism, which all promote oppression. It's a “distress producing phenomena” that hurts everyone and is making white people sick, he says. They also discuss other concepts in psychology, like “post traumatic slave syndrome” and “black fatigue,” and how Christianity becomes a weapon, especially when it comes to sexuality. Dr. Lassiter says he wants marginalized people, the global majority, to understand that they're not the problem. His future work will focus on the Afro-centric and Indigenous psychologies as pathways to better, more healthy futures. Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter is a licensed clinical psychologist in New York City specializing in culturally informed mental health care for Black, POC, and LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. With a passion to use his Ph.D.for the culture, he serves as a therapist, scientist, educator, author, mental health columnist, on-air mental health expert, and international public speaker. Dr. Lassiter has appeared in such outlets as NBC, PBS, Forbes, Huff Post, Radio NewZealand, SiriusXM, iHeart Radio, and more. Follow Dr. Lassiter on all social media platforms at @lassiterhealth.

Today I'm joined by neuroscientist and mitochondrial health expert Siobhan Mitchell to cut through the noise around mitochondria, inflammation, NAD, and what actually matters for energy, recovery, and brain health in midlife We unpack why mitochondria are not just “battery packs”, they are a master regulator of oxidative stress, immune signalling, and cellular aging. Siobhan explains the difference between hormetic stress that upgrades your system (like training) versus chronic stress that drains it WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: • What mitochondria actually do, beyond “energy production”  • Mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis, and why both decline with age  • The difference between hormetic stress (exercise) and chronic stress (modern life)  • Why mitochondrial dysfunction can drive inflammation and immune overactivation  • How brain energy demand and oestrogen loss intersect in menopause symptoms  • CD38, inflammation, and why staying lean matters for NAD preservation  • Why NAD precursors can be wasted, and what supports conversion inside the cell  • The practical take on timing, training, and recovery support TIMESTAMPS 00:01 Mitochondria, ATP, and the oxidative stress trade-off  04:14 Mitophagy, mitochondrial biogenesis, and aging  16:13 Mitochondria as immune regulators, inflammation and cytokines  23:09 Brain energy, menopause, oestrogen, and cognitive decline mechanisms  29:33 NAD explained, CD38, and why NAD drops with age  48:56 NAD, GLUT4, insulin sensitivity, and perimenopause metabolism  53:19 Where to learn more, discount code, and closing VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Get 10% off MitoQ NAD+ - www.mitoq.com with code ANGELA Get 35% off Timeline Mitopure by visiting this link while the offer lasts - https://www.timeline.com/promotions/angela35 Upgrade your cellular health - get 20% off Beam Minerals at http://beamminerals.com/ANGELA & use code ANGELA at checkout ABOUT THE GUEST Dr Siobhan Mitchell - Chief Scientific Officer - MitoQ Siobhan is the Chief Scientific Officer at MitoQ.

Most women think brain fog in perimenopause is inevitable. It isn't. In this episode, I explain what's really going on: your brain isn't broken, it's running on empty; and that's a solvable biology problem, not a willpower problem. I break down what happens as estrogen and progesterone fluctuate, how that impacts brain energy, and why symptoms like forgetfulness, poor focus, and “slow-motion thinking” can show up even when you're doing everything right. Then I share four science-backed strategies to rebuild a sharper, more resilient brain—covering nutrition, training for cognitive performance, regulating your mental “gears,” and a practical supplement toolkit to amplify the foundations WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: How blood sugar crashes sabotage cognition (and the breakfast fix) Why protein & healthy fats matter for focus in perimenopause The role of omega-3s (EPA/DHA) in neuroinflammation and clarity Why higher-intensity exercise can improve focus via lactate → BDNF How to use training strategically before deep work or high-stakes meetings The 3 Gears framework for focus, creativity, and stress regulation Why micro-breaks between meetings improve engagement and reduce stress buildup The supplement stack discussed (omega-3s, magnesium forms, ubiquinol/CoQ10, B vitamins) How to start with one change and build momentum without overwhelm TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Brain Fog in Perimenopause: What's Really Going On 02:37 Strategy 1: High-Quality Nutrition 05:25 Strategy 2: Exercise for Focus (Lactate, BDNF & Brain Energy) 08:59 Strategy 3: 3 Gears Framework for Focus & Stress 13:05 Strategy 4: The Supplement Toolkit (What Actually Helps) 17:28 How to Reclaim Your Focus & Energy VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend • Longevity Supplement Masterclass – https://academy.angelafosterperformance.com/longevity-masterclass-27 • Omega-3 Episode featuring Dr. Bill Harris – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J42kJPyHPoA A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Get 10% off MitoQ NAD+ - www.mitoq.com with code ANGELA Get 35% off Timeline Mitopure by visiting this link while the offer lasts - https://www.timeline.com/promotions/angela35 ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Have you ever noticed how slowing down can feel strangely uncomfortable—even when you know you need it? Or how taking a break can stir guilt instead of relief? In this episode, I'm joined by Israa Nasir, a psychotherapist, mental health educator, and founder of WellGuide, to explore the deeper psychology behind our relentless drive to stay busy. Drawing from her new book Toxic Productivity, Israa helps us unpack the hidden beliefs that link our worth to our output—and how to step out of that pressure without losing our sense of ambition. Israa's work bridges emotional well-being, modern life, and resilience-building, and she has been featured in NBC, Vox, HuffPost, Teen Vogue, and more. She has also been invited to speak at organizations including Mental Health America, Google, Meta, and Yale. Together, we talk about where toxic productivity comes from, how it quietly shapes our self-esteem, and what it looks like to redefine success in a way that supports your mental health. You'll also walk away with practical ways to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and build a relationship with productivity that feels grounded—not draining.

Join Angela and Simon Alexander Ong, a life and business coach and author of the book Energize, for a discussion on how to transform your life by managing your energy rather than your time, focussing on the power of perception and mindset in achieving an "extraordinary life".  Simon shares his personal journey from the financial sector during the 2008 crisis to becoming a coach, illustrating how obstacles can be reframed as opportunities. They also look at practical strategies for goal setting, maintaining consistency over intensity, and building sustainable systems for long-term success in both personal and professional spheres. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Energy Management Over Time Management: True productivity and the ability to "bend reality" come from managing your energetic state and perception rather than just managing your calendar. Consistency Trumps Intensity: Success is rarely a straight line; it is more like a maze where long-term consistency in habits and systems is more effective than short-term bursts of intense effort. The Power of Pronoia: Reframing your perspective from paranoia (the world is out to get you) to "pronoia" (the universe is conspiring in your favour) significantly changes how you respond to challenges and opportunities. Value and Service as Business Foundations: In business, shift the focus from selling to providing value and service; Simon suggests that money is simply an "echo of value". TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [0:56] The career journey [2:50] “The messy middle" of any journey and why it's crucial to fall in love with the process [7:46] The difference between goal-setting (like training for a marathon) and building systems [13:48] “Daily non-negotiables," including physical exercise, reading across multiple formats, journaling for mental clarity, and using voice notes VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible Try Beam Minerals now at beamminerals.com/angela using code ANGELA for 20% off Take the BioSyncing Quiz: https://angelafoster.me/quiz ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Join Angela and Dr William Li for a look at the complex world of heart health and hormonal shifts, in which they tackle the often-confusing link between menopause and rising cholesterol levels, debunking common myths and providing clarity on the real risks of high LDL.  Dr. Li shares his expert insights on the nuances of heart disease prevention, the importance of blood sugar balance, and how a holistic, evidence-based approach can help you navigate these sudden health changes with confidence and balance. KEY TAKEAWAYS: High LDL cholesterol is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease because it can build up as plaque in the arteries and impede blood flow. Total cholesterol levels are no longer the primary indicator of heart disease risk; instead, doctors focus on the ratio of "good" HDL to "bad" LDL cholesterol. While some people have genetic predispositions to extremely high cholesterol, modern medicine emphasises a more nuanced understanding of different cholesterol components. Maintaining blood sugar balance is crucial, but health influencers often exaggerate the dangers of minor "spikes" and "crashes" that are actually normal bodily functions. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:45 How LDL cholesterol sticks to artery walls like "Velcro," 1:42 How medical understanding has evolved from tracking total cholesterol to focusing on HDL/LDL ratios. 3:07 The influence of health influencers on public anxiety regarding blood sugar and cholesterol levels. 4:03 Importance of "homeostasis" and how the body naturally strives for balance in its systems.
