In this episode, Amy Natalie sits down with Dr. Nona Djavid for a powerful conversation about balancing masculine and feminine energies, nervous system regulation, and the art of intentional manifestation. Dr. Nona shares her journey from a hypermasculine, high-achieving lifestyle to one rooted in flow, embodiment, and freedom. Together, they explore how early conditioning shapes emotional patterns and how tools like neuro tagging, visualization, and movement can rewire the nervous system for deeper fulfillment.Listeners will be inspired to create an “unreasonable” vision for their lives—one that blends structure with intuition, logic with creativity, and action with surrender. Through emotional embodiment and conscious practice, this episode invites women to step into their next-level identity and manifest from a place of wholeness.Themes:Balancing masculine drive with feminine flowHealing and rewiring the nervous systemManifestation through visualization and repetitionEmbodying new emotional patternsCreating freedom through identity transformationLimited Time Offer

We're throwing it back to the 1996 cult classic film The Craft just in time for Halloween! We begin with a conversation about Hannah and Marcelle's teenage witch phases (of course they both had them), before digging into the filmic landscape of the 90s. Hannah argues that The Craft's interest in girlhood and power was a catalyst that paved the way for pop culture to come, like Buffy and Charmed and Practical Magic. Hannah then draws on Stacy Gillis and Rebecca Munford's “Genealogies and Generations: The Politics and Praxis of Third Wave Feminism" and Jessica Rosenberg and Gitana Garofalo's “Riot Grrrl: Revolutions from Within" to help understand the resonance of film.

Today we're talking about one of my favorite topics — what it really means to connect, collaborate, and let go of control as our kids grow into themselves as they enter the transformative teen years. My guest is Dr. Ann-Louise Lockhart, a pediatric psychologist and parent coach who helps overwhelmed parents raise confident, emotionally healthy kids and teens, and the author of the brand new book, Love the Teen You Have: A Practical Guide to Transforming Conflict Into Connection. In our conversation, Ann-Louise shares insights from her book and offers a powerful reframing of what it means to parent through the teen years. We talk about shifting from control to curiosity—especially when raising neurodivergent kids—along with individuation, cognitive dissonance, and why living a fulfilling life as a parent is one of the best ways to model healthy behaviors for our teens. She also reminds us that it's never too late to repair, reconnect, and love the teen we have right now.

A catch-all Friday! Tops on the list for the day: the continued destruction at the White House. HuffPost documents the donors who thought they were signing up for ballroom construction, only to find out Trump was saddling them with East Wing demolition, instead. Next up: We've always been at trade war with Canada! Or at least, we are now. Again. Because something, something, Ronald Reagan. Speaking of which, “something, something, Ronald Reagan.” Third: Trump says he has no intention of asking Congress to authorize his Caribbean (and now Pacific) strikes. Even though it would give the tacti-cool set lots of lingo and jargon to toss about. Israeli hard-liners are talking about annexing the West Bank, now. JD Vance makes it about him. Happy Diwali! MAGA makes that about Kash Patel. Ronny Jackson is so dumb, not even Matthew Kacsmaryk can save his “case!” Neither can anyone save the MAGA “cases” of supposed “left-wing violence.” The right has never learned—and never had to learn—the lesson of The Case of the Backwards B. New bootstrapping theory dropped! The “reason” Trump thinks he's entitled to reparations from the DOJ is that they should have foreseen in 2022 that in 2024, SCOTUS would invent a new theory of “presidential immunity,” and that he would totally have been entitled to it. Heading out to vote early in Virginia? Do you feel like you need some context on Jay Jones? Or nah?

Unleash your brain's hidden potential with Patrick Holford, who in this bitesize edition, reveals the electrifying truth that your brain is a powerhouse of fat and protein, and you're likely running it on empty.  Also, discover the four "Horsemen of the Mental Health Apocalypse"—from sugar to missing B vitamins—that are sabotaging your focus and dramatically increasing your risk of dementia KEY TAKEAWAYS: Your Brain is Composed of Fat and Protein: The brain's structure is predominantly fat (over 60% of its dry weight) and protein. White matter consists of fatty insulation (like electrical wires), and grey matter is made of the neuron bodies Optimal Nutrition is the Foundation of High Performance: High performance in any area, including sports, starts with a properly functioning brain The Four Horsemen of Mental Health Decline: Patrick identifies four key factors that negatively impact brain health: brain fats (Omega-3, Vitamin D, phospholipids), methylation (B vitamins), sugar, and antioxidants Dementia is Not Inevitable: Apart from a small number of cases caused by rare, early-onset genes (less than 1%), developing dementia is not a necessity.

On October 22, BigTentUSA hosted a thought-provoking conversation with Kerry Kennedy, President of ‪@rfkhumanrights‬ and ‪@SenatorChrisMurphy‬ (D-CT), moderated by ‪@bulwarkmedia‬'s Sam Stein. Rather than focusing solely on policy reform, the speakers explored how decades of broken promises from both Democrats and Republicans — coupled with the lack of a shared understanding of what it truly means to be American — have fueled the intolerance underlying today's immigration crisis. They reflected on how this erosion of shared values has weakened trust in institutions and deepened divisions across the country. The discussion also examined the broader democratic moment, from the real-world impact of the ongoing government shutdown to the growing threats posed by authoritarianism. Kennedy and Murphy emphasized that lasting progress depends not only on government action but on the collective power of citizens and civil society organizations to push for accountability and justice. It was an illuminating and deeply human conversation — a call to restore our sense of common purpose and to harness the power of civic engagement in defense of democracy and human rights.Learn more about RFK Human Rights: https://rfkhumanrights.org/ ABOUT THE SPEAKERS Kerry Kennedy is president of Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, where she partners with courageous activists around the world to advance justice and human dignity. A human rights lawyer and author of the New York Times bestsellers Being Catholic Now and Speak Truth to Power, Kennedy has spent more than four decades championing causes from women's rights and criminal justice reform to freedom of expression and environmental justice. The seventh child of Ethel and Robert F. Kennedy, she has led hundreds of human rights delegations globally and appears frequently as a commentator and contributor in national media. Kennedy serves on the boards of the U.S. Institute of Peace and the Kailash Satyarthi Children's Foundation, among others, and has received numerous international honors for her advocacy. She is a graduate of Brown University and Boston College Law School and the proud mother of three daughters.Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT), the junior United States Senator from Connecticut, has dedicated his career to public service as an advocate for Connecticut families. Senator Murphy has been a strong voice in the Senate fighting for job creation, affordable health care, education, sensible gun laws, and a forward-looking foreign policy. Senator Murphy is a consensus builder and many times throughout his political career has worked to bridge the political divide. He led a bipartisan effort to reform the mental health system, working across the aisle to craft the first comprehensive mental health bill in the Senate in decades. Following the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook elementary school in 2012, Senator Murphy became one of the leading proponents of commonsense reforms to reduce gun violence. He has championed a number of bipartisan bills aimed at expanding background checks and keeping guns out of the hands of criminals. And most recently, he was the lead Democratic negotiator of the breakthrough bipartisan border reform agreement. Sam Stein is managing editor for The Bulwark. Prior to then he was Deputy Managing Editor for Politics at Politico. He held similar posts at both The Daily Beast and HuffPost, where he founded the site's D.C. bureau.

Berated by the tabloids as exhibitionist pornography, Madonna's coffee table book, ‘Sex', quickly sold out upon its release on 21st October, 1992. Influenced by artists Robert Mapplethorpe and Cindy Sherman, the book included images of full-frontal nudity, simulated gay sex, mixed race couples, threesomes and trans imagery. Madonna vigorously defended it, in a series of interviews, as a portrayal of female sexuality. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly ask if Madonna was fighting an uphill battle to be taken seriously; debate whether the book was art, a smutty publicity stunt… or both; and consider whether a particularly sensational spread involving a canine companion was taken out of context...  Content Warning: discussion of erotic imagery, including abusive sexual fantasies Further Reading: • ‘How Madonna Turned Controversy Into a Best-Selling Book' (Entertainment Tonight, 2020): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILybauhbA00 • ‘25 Years Later, Madonna's 'Sex' Book Is Still Pop's Most Radical Moment' (HuffPost, 2017): https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/madonna-sex-book-25th-anniversary_n_59e9f8f1e4b0f9d35bca11e6 • ‘Madonna's 'Erotica,' 'Sex': Misunderstood Masterpieces' (Rolling Stone, 2017): https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/madonnas-erotica-sex-why-musical-masterpiece-defiant-book-still-matter-200685/ This episode first aired in 2021 This episode first premiered in 2024, for members of

In this episode, Angela sits down with Ulrich Dempfle, co-founder and CEO of CAROL Bike, to uncover the science and innovation behind one of the most time-efficient ways to boost VO₂ max, metabolic health, and brain function. Ulrich explains why VO₂ max is the most important marker for longevity, how it declines without training, and how short, AI-guided REHIT sprints boost mitochondria, BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor), and cardiovascular fitness in just minutes. He also breaks down how Reduced-Exertion High-Intensity Interval Training (REHIT) works, why traditional zone 2 training doesn't work for everyone, and how gamification and real-time performance data make staying consistent easier than ever. What You'll Learn: Why VO₂ max is the strongest predictor of health and longevity How REHIT delivers major fitness gains in just minutes Why zone 2 training doesn't work for everyone How short, AI-guided sprints boost mitochondria and brain function Metabolic and cognitive benefits of REHIT How CAROL Bike personalises training to maximise VO₂ max TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro & The Importance of VO₂ Max 01:00 How VO₂ Max Declines and Why It Matters 04:22 Zone 2 Training Myths & Non-Responders 09:09 Mitochondria 101: Density vs. Efficiency 12:00 The Science Behind REHIT & CAROL Bike 19:09 Gamification, Dopamine & Workout Adherence 22:02 Lactate, BDNF & Brain Health Benefits 26:04 Insulin Sensitivity & Metabolic Effects 30:17 Efficient Weekly Training Structure 34:51 Afterburn Effect & Fat Oxidation Misconceptions 45:00 VO₂ Max Testing & Fitness Score Tracking 52:00 Peer-Reviewed Research & AI Personalisation 57:30 Real-World VO₂ Max Improvements 1:01:00 How to Get Started & Special Listener Offer 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: Exclusive discount for podcast listeners on Carol Bike - the bike that gets you fittest the fastest - click here WWW.CAROLBIKE.COM and use code ANGELA Hormone Harmony - go to LVLUPHEALTH.COM/ANGELA and use the code ANGELA at checkout for an exclusive 15% off ABOUT THE GUEST Ulrich Dempfle is the CEO and co-founder of CAROL Bike, the world's first Reduced Exertion HIIT (REHIT) exercise bike.

Dr. William Li, a world-renowned physician and scientist, discusses the power of food as medicine and its profound influence on health, including its ability to repair DNA, starve cancer cells, and boost the body's five natural defense systems. Drawing on his extensive research, he reveals how everyday dietary choices can activate healing mechanisms like angiogenesis, regeneration, and immunity, providing actionable insights to optimise metabolism, fight disease, and support longevity KEY TAKEAWAYS: Food acts as medicine by activating the body's five health defense systems: angiogenesis (blood vessel health), regeneration (stem cells), the microbiome, DNA protection, and immunity. The focus should be on adding health-boosting foods you enjoy, such as broccoli sprouts, blueberries, kiwi, and tree nuts, rather than restrictive dieting, as nutritional diversity is key to supporting these defense systems. Simple, consistent dietary changes can rewire your metabolism and help the body regulate sugar, manage inflammation, and burn fat, often reducing reliance on medication. Certain plant-based foods contain bioactives like lycopene (in tomatoes) and polyphenols (in tea and berries) that are critical for supporting the gut microbiome TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 02:06 What people get wrong about fat loss 04:28 How food can activate the body's healing defense systems. 07:48 Dr. Li's research-based meal plan 10:16 Discussion of foods that lower inflammation 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: Full episode link https://lnk.to/EP508  ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

You've probably heard that creatine is just for men who want to bulk up, but that's one of the biggest myths in fitness. The truth? Creatine is one of the most well-researched and effective supplements out there, not just for your muscles, but also for your brain, bones, and mood. And it's especially powerful for women over 35, when hormonal changes start to affect our energy, recovery, and resilience. In this episode, I'm breaking down five science-backed reasons why creatine is a total game changer for women in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond. I'll share what the research shows, how to use it safely, and why it can help you feel stronger, sharper, and more balanced, both in and out of the gym. This is a topic that's close to my heart. My own experience with perimenopause taught me just how much our energy, strength, and mood can shift, and how powerful it is when we learn to support our biology instead of fighting against it. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why creatine isn't just for “gym bros” How perimenopause affects your energy, focus, and metabolism The science behind ATP, your body's “cellular battery”, and how creatine recharges it Five key ways creatine supports women over 35: energy booster, muscle protector, brain booster, bone guardian, mood stabilizer.

Angela welcomes special guest, Dave Asprey, founder of the biohacking movement, on how unseen, pre-conscious processes in your body, particularly within the mitochondria, dictate your energy, reactions, and susceptibility to emotional triggers. Dave also explains why your body's initial operating system, driven by primal needs—fear, food, and fertility—influences your choices and emotional states before your conscious mind intervenes. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Pre-Conscious Body Decisions: Your body, specifically the mitochondria, processes reality and decides your emotional response within a one-third of a second 'censorship window'  The Five F-Words of the Body's Operating System: The body's primal decisions are based on five priorities: Fear (run away from danger), Food (eat everything), Fertility (reproduce), Friend (support community), and Forgiveness (evolution and emotional editing). Suffering as a Choice: People will unconsciously continue patterns of suffering until the pain is great enough to overcome their internal resistance and they actively choose to change Forgiveness as an Altered State: True forgiveness is a measurable, physiological process that happens in the body, which involves finding gratitude for a small positive outcome from a negative event TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 01:06: EMF exposure and its impact on energy, hormones, and recovery. 04:09: The concept of triggers as a 'loaded gun'. 12:53: Explanation of the body's 'censorship window' and the five F-words 23:44: Health and financial challenges  29:10: The scientific difference between loud, reactive Fear and quiet, faster Intuition 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: Defender Shield - go to ⁠DEFENDERSHIELD.COM/ANGELA⁠ and use the code ANGELA at checkout for an exclusive 10% off Supercharge your energy and upgrade your mitochondria with Mitopure - go to timeline.com/angela and enter code ANGELA to save 10%  QUANTUM UPGRADE - Go to quantumupgrade.io and use code ANGELA15 to get your 15 day free trial.

We're pulling back the curtain on military marriage and divorce, a world built on service and sacrifice but also one that silences and sidelines the spouses, most often women, who hold everything together while their partners serve. I'm thrilled to welcome Heather Sweeney to the podcast for this conversation, one I've been wanting to have for years. She's a writer, former military spouse, and the author of the upcoming memoir Camouflage: How I Emerged from the Shadows of a Military Marriage.  Heather shares what it's really like to build a life around someone else's career, the toll of deployments, and the barriers military spouses face when seeking support. We also talk about losing your sense of self, navigating a system built on patriarchy that's designed to keep spouses dependent and invisible, and finding the strength to step into life on your own terms after divorce. Please know that this episode isn't just for military spouses. It's for anyone who has ever felt invisible in their own relationship or wondered what might happen if they stopped holding everything together. ✨ If you'd like to watch the video version of this episode, you can find it here.

What really defines a cult—and why do smart, well-intentioned people get caught up in them? In this episode, Michael Shermer sits down with cult intervention specialist Ashlen Hilliard to explore the psychology of high-control groups and the people drawn into them. Her work has been featured in prominent media outlets like Hulu, NewsNation, HuffPost, and BET+. In 2022, Ashlen founded People Leave Cults, offering intervention and recovery resources for survivors and concerned loved ones.

In this episode, Dr. Stacy Sims returns for her fourth appearance on the podcast to share her latest insights into women's health, performance, and longevity. She clears up common misconceptions about aging and fitness, emphasizing the importance of foundational practices - sleep, nutrition, and consistent training - over chasing advanced supplements or quick fixes. Dr. Sims highlights the gender differences in exercise research, explains why women need tailored approaches to training, and explores how HIIT, resistance workouts, and structured year-round plans can transform strength and resilience. The discussion also covers gut health, menopause hormone therapy, protein timing, and strategies to keep young girls engaged in sports. KEY TAKEAWAYS Start with the basics – Sleep, nutrition, and consistency matter most for longevity. Female-specific research – Women need health and fitness strategies rooted in their physiology. Tailored training – HIIT, resistance, and recovery should shift with life stages. Hormonal health – Perimenopause and menopause impact performance and should be understood. Gut & supplements – Creatine, glutamine, and nutrition can support muscle, energy, and digestion.

Angela and special guest Peter Crone look at the psychological barriers that prevent people from overcoming negative, repeated life patterns, asserting that these habitual actions are merely symptoms of deeper, unaccepted subconscious beliefs about oneself.  They examine the concept of the "fresh start effect" and explains that true freedom from a cycle of self-sabotage, whether in relationships, finance, or career, begins with the radical acceptance of one's past KEY TAKEAWAYS: Repeated negative patterns are symptomatic of unrecognised, deeper subconscious constraints and self-views, rather than the core problem itself. The "I could have done this" or "I should have done that" narrative is a lie that serves only to reinforce the ego's view of itself as inadequate, keeping a cycle of self-judgement alive. True breakthrough and high performance come from accepting your personal history completely, using the logic that "what happened happened and couldn't have happened any other way because it didn't," which eliminates the psychological time of past regret and future worry. The fear of the unknown is a misconception; people are actually scared of what their brain, using a history of failures, is superimposing onto the blank canvas of the future. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: The idea that patterns are symptomatic of something deeper (03:52) The profound quote on accepting your past (09:59) The story of the professional athlete who was told he had the "capacity to suck" (14:38) The final, liberating thought on why people fear the unknown (22:42) VALUABLE RESOURCES ⁠Join The High Performance Health Community⁠ ⁠Click here⁠ for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend Link to full episode ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Angela is joined by internationally renowned medical doctor and researcher Dr. William Li for an eye-opening conversation about metabolism, fat loss, and the science of food as medicine. Dr. Li debunks common myths, like the belief that metabolism “slows down” with age, and explains how excess body fat, not age, is the real driver of metabolic decline. They also explore groundbreaking research on foods that activate brown fat, reduce visceral fat, and improve health span, offering practical, science-backed strategies you can use today. KEY TAKEAWAYS Metabolism Myths Debunked: Human metabolism remains rock-stable from ages 20–60 and only slightly declines after that. The real issue is excess fat, not aging. Visceral vs. Brown Fat: Visceral fat harms metabolism, while brown fat is metabolically active and helps burn visceral fat. Food as Medicine: Everyday foods like tomatoes, berries, extra virgin olive oil, and even coffee can activate brown fat and improve metabolic health. Lifestyle Choices Matter: Stress, poor sleep, alcohol, and ultra-processed foods slow metabolism. With the right choices, 60 can truly be the new 20. Personalized Health: There's no one-size-fits-all prescription. How you live, eat, and manage stress determines how well your metabolism functions.

If you've ever looked at your kid mid-meltdown and thought, “Why am I reacting like this? I know better”—you're not alone.There's a gap between what we know and how we show up in the heat of parenting. And the bridge across that gap? Practiced, embodied mindfulness—not perfection or more willpower.In this episode, I'm joined by Hunter Clarke-Fields, MSAE, RYT—international bestselling author of Raising Good Humans, creator of the Mindful Parenting course & teacher training, and host of the Mindful Mama podcast. A former “parenting yeller” turned mindfulness teacher with 20+ years of practice, Hunter has been featured on CNBC, NBC, FOX, HuffPost, Tiny Buddha, MOPS, and more. Her mission: help caregivers and kids live more mindfully and compassionately—without shame, rigidity, or 2-hour morning routines.We're diving into: ✔️ Mindfulness 101: what it really is (and how to practice it in 1–5 minutes, not just 20) ✔️ The neuroscience: shrinking amygdala reactivity, strengthening your prefrontal cortex (hello impulse control + clarity) ✔️ How to close the “I know better” → “I do better” gap with tiny, repeatable reps (not more information) ✔️ Practical tools to grow the pause before you snap—so you can respond instead of reactIf you've been trying to “think your way” to calmer parenting while your nervous system is sprinting the other direction, this one's for you.

"My editor was like, hold on, you need to put your thumb on the scale of why this matters. Now, there's no first person in this, but you have your thumb on the scale, you need to assert your own point of view. Like, this matters, why? says Brendan O'Meara, author of The Front Runner: The Life of Steve Prefontaine Mariner Books.Who the heck does this host think he is being a guest on his own podcast? The nerve of this guy. That's right, for the third live taping of the Creative Nonfiction Podcast at Gratitude Brewing, I was interviewed by the brilliant Daniel Littlewood, who kinda makes me look and sound like a jabroni's jabroni.Daniel is Group Creative Director at The Explainer Studio at Vox Media, Inc. He edited the documentary feature film “Don't Think I've Forgotten: Cambodia's Lost Rock & Roll.” Formerly, he was the lead producer for HuffPost's Live's multi-million dollar sponsored content division. He has a tremendously easy-going, conversation nature to interviewing with tremendous shot-clock awareness that required next to no editing on my part.So The Front Runner has, at this point, been out for four months. Daniel and I recorded this on July 27 so the book was only out for two months at that time. This was a painful edit for me because I'm so sick of hearing myself talk and talk and talk. I'm not so sure I took a single breath during this conversation, but Daniel was an incredible partner and if something should happen to me, I want Daniel to take over CNF Pod.In this episode, I talk about: My love of my editor Valorization of pain Making the case for why I was the person to write this book Asserting POV in biography World building And why it was a good thing I forgot the combination of our gun safeRuby McConnell introduces us at Gratitude Brewing.Order The Front RunnerNewsletter: Rage Against the AlgorithmWelcome to Pitch ClubShow notes: brendanomeara.com

Angela and Kate Muir look at the profound impact of perimenopause on women's mental health, particularly for those with a history of conditions like postpartum depression, who may be more sensitive to hormonal fluctuations.  Kate explains the neurological changes during menopause using the analogy of "Inside Out" characters, highlighting how the decline of key hormones like oestrogen (joyful) and progesterone (calming) and the resulting increase in cortisol can lead to symptoms like anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, and brain fog, severely affecting confidence and productivity KEY TAKEAWAYS: Hormonal Sensitivity: Women with a history of mental health issues like postpartum depression are often more sensitive to the hormonal fluctuations of perimenopause The Brain's Hormonal Shift: The decline of oestrogen (linked to serotonin) and progesterone (calming) during menopause leaves hormone receptors empty, leading to increased cortisol  Under-Recognised Benefits of Testosterone: Beyond libido, testosterone is crucial for women's mental health, aiding in motivation, drive, and cognitive function Holistic Support for Brain Health: Optimising nutrition (high protein), sleep hygiene (using micro-recoveries and supplements like L-theanine and phosphatidylserine), and specific exercises (compound lifts to increase BDNF) can significantly support brain health TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [0:22] -: Link Between Postpartum Depression and Perimenopause [1:27] -: "Inside Out" Analogy for Hormonal Decline [2:45] -: Mental Health Symptoms and Physical Effects [7:47] -: Testosterone's Role Beyond Libido 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: ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

The networks were mostly respectful toward the Charlie Kirk memorial service on Sunday, unlike HuffPost calling it a "ragefest" and The New York Times worrying about church-state separation. Plus: some networks have offered zero seconds on the GOP-led House investigation of how Biden's staff desperately hid his mental decline.

Navigating midlife can feel overwhelming, but this episode is your reset. Angela is joined by author of "The Perimenopause Revolution," Dr. Mariza Snyder, and together dive deep into what it takes for women in their 40s and 50s to feel alive, focused, and fully in charge.  They discuss how to gain agency over your health and lifestyle, and how to rewrite the societal scripts about what it means to be a woman in the second half of life KEY TAKEAWAYS: Agency over your health: Taking a long, hard look at what you're carrying and being discerning about what needs to be let go is crucial for managing midlife energy and capacity. Prioritise sleep like a million-dollar meeting: Sleep consistency and treating your nightly rest as a non-negotiable priority is essential for managing energy and resilience. Movement is a non-negotiable: Intentionally incorporating movement throughout your day, even in small bursts, is one of the most powerful tools for regulating your nervous system and boosting cellular energy. Embrace intentionality: Moving through midlife with intention—in your relationships, health habits, and personal growth—is the key to thriving rather than just surviving.

Angela and special guest Lara Briden examine the importance of key metabolic nutrients that are often missing from modern diets, particularly for women in perimenopause.  They discuss the top five nutrients—magnesium, taurine, choline, inositol, and glycine—that can help calm the nervous system, improve energy, and enhance metabolic health, and highlight how these supplements can support insulin sensitivity and overall well-being, especially during hormonal changes KEY TAKEAWAYS: Role of Magnesium and Taurine: Both magnesium and taurine are effective for their ability to support healthy mitochondria, calm the nervous system, and improve insulin sensitivity Importance of Choline: Choline is identified as a crucial nutrient, particularly for women experiencing menopause, as oestrogen loss can impair the body's ability to produce choline Inositol for Insulin Sensitivity: Inositol is noted for its effectiveness in improving insulin sensitivity, especially for those with conditions like PCOS and during perimenopause Holistic Approach to Perimenopause: Women in perimenopause do not have to accept symptoms like fatigue and weight gain as normal. A combination of dietary changes, nutrient supplementation, and lifestyle adjustments can help mitigate these issues TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:00:49] Magnesium and taurine benefits. [00:03:25] Glycine for sleep and detox. [00:07:10] Insulin resistance in perimenopause.

I'm excited to welcome back Jennie Young to the podcast. Jennie is here to talk about dating after divorce and how to protect yourself from getting tangled in the patterns you worked so hard to get yourself out of. She's the creator of the Burned Haystack Dating Method — a sharp and fiercely feminist approach to spotting danger early in the dating process, and the author of the upcoming book Burn the Haystack In our conversation, Jennie and I dig into the realities of dating after divorce: from spotting danger in seemingly “safe” profiles to challenging the patriarchal scripts that keep women waiting to be chosen. Plus, we talk about shifting into the seat of choice, what it looks like to feel genuinely comfortable being single, and how these changes ripple out into raising kids with healthier expectations. ✨ Podcast episodes are available in two formats - audio and video! If you'd like to watch the video version of this episode, you can find it here. What you'll hear about in this episode: Jennie shares her origin story and the ah-ha moment that led to creating The Burned Haystack Dating Method (2:31) The feminist philosophy behind Burned Haystack and how it flips the traditional “pick me” script (5:33) Why green flags can actually be red flags in disguise: from love bombing to performative sensitivity (15:25) The importance of being comfortable (and even happy) being single before re-entering dating (32:44) What the “extinction burst” in the toxic manosphere means, and why starving it of attention is essential (35:09) How to shift the messaging for our kids so they grow up with healthier expectations and values (42:39) Learn more about Jennie Young: Jennie Young is the creator of Burned Haystack Dating Method, a dating method grounded in applied rhetoric and feminist praxis.

In this episode I'm talking with Julie Green, author of the memoir Motherness, a powerful exploration of generational autism, parenthood, and radical acceptance. Julie, who was late-diagnosed herself and is raising an autistic child, takes us inside her journey of self-discovery and diagnosis, and we talk about the emotional complexities of coming to understand our own neurodivergence while parenting neurodivergent kids. We explore the healing power of writing, the importance of storytelling and compassion, and the challenges many families like ours face along the way. Julie's memoir is a testament to these shared experiences, and this conversation is a deeply honest look at what it means to parent—and to live—with radical acceptance. About Julie Green Julie Green is the author of Motherness, a memoir about generational autism, parenthood, and radical acceptance, released by ECW Press in September 2025. Her writing has appeared in the Washington Post, HuffPost, Parents, The Globe and Mail, Chatelaine, Today's Parent, and more. She has been featured on CTV, BBC Radio, Global News, Sirius XM, and other media outlets, and was a finalist for the CBC Nonfiction Prize in 2024. Through her platform The Autistic Mom, Julie shares her lived experience as a late-diagnosed autistic woman raising an autistic child. Things you'll learn from this episode  How Julie's decade-long journey to understanding her neurodivergence was shaped by limited representation for autistic women Why writing became an essential tool for Julie to process her experiences and emotions How receiving a formal diagnosis brought relief and clarity to her life story Why Julie's memoir Motherness shines a light on the complexities of parenting an autistic child while navigating her own identity How practicing self-compassion and protecting her child's privacy are central to Julie's storytelling Why community, connection, and embracing one's identity remain vital for neurodivergent individuals and families Resources mentioned Motherness virtual book launch on September 23 (free registration via EventBrite) Julie Green's website Motherness: A Memoir of Generational Autism, Parenthood, and Radical Acceptance by Julie Green Julie's Substack, The Autistic Mom The Electricity of Every Living Thing: A Woman's Walk in the Wild to Find Her Way Home by Katherine May Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times by Katherine May Katherine May and the Electricity of Every Living Thing (Tilt Parenting podcast) Learn more about your ad choices.
