This episode dives deep into the chaos and complexity of navigating the hospital system during a family health crisis. Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick share their personal experience advocating for a loved one after a stroke, exposing the pitfalls of blind trust in conventional medicine, the dangers of medication mismanagement, and the critical importance of asking quality questions. They challenge listeners to step up as empowered advocates, highlighting that true health requires education, vigilance, and self-investment—not just defaulting to the status quo.   #MedicalAdvocacy #HospitalNavigation #EmpoweredHealth #AskBetterQuestions #StrokeRecovery #PatientAdvocate #IntegrativeYou #HolisticHealth #QuestionEverything #HealthFreedom   3 Key Takeaways: Blind trust in the medical system can be dangerous: The leading cause of death is iatrogenic (medical error), so it's crucial to question everything and never assume the experts always have your best interest at heart. Advocacy starts with education and asking better questions: Don't be afraid to demand details, read package inserts, and challenge recommendations—your loved one's outcome depends on it. Investing in your own health is not a luxury, it's a necessity: Waiting for a crisis to learn is a losing strategy. Daily self-education, prevention, and mindset work are non-negotiable if you want to stay empowered and out of the system's traps.    Quotes:  “The quality of your life is dictated by the quality of questions you ask. If you don't ask quality questions, you're going to eventually be forced into a circumstance that makes you.” “Being alive doesn't mean you're winning. The system's designed to lose—and if you don't take control, someone else will.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

I asked my AI app to speak as the ultimate philosopher/psychologist. I want you to blend ancient wisdom with modern science, stoicism, Jung, neuroscience, all of it. Now give me five brutal truths about the human mind. The kind of truths people need to hear if they want to stop wasting their life.

In this first part of a 3-part series, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick get real about the emotional rollercoaster of being a caretaker during a family health crisis. Using the personal story of Nicole's mother's hemorrhagic stroke, they unpack the truth behind the “caretaker” instinct, the dangers of swooping in to save, and the real power of loving someone through their own journey—without losing yourself in the process. This episode is a no-BS look at the intersection of family, health, emotional triggers, and the generational patterns that shape how we show up in crisis.   #IntegrativeYou #CaretakerTruths #FamilyHealing #GenerationalHealth #MindBodyMedicine #HealthAdvocate #InspiredLiving #ConsciousCare #BreakingPatterns #HolisticHealth   3 Key Takeaways: You can't save someone who isn't ready to be saved. True healing starts with the individual's choice, not your desperation to fix them. Caretaking from desperation fuels resentment and drains everyone. Showing up from inspiration and love—not fear—creates real support and growth for both parties. Family health crises expose generational patterns and force accountability. The energy you bring (fear or empowerment) directly impacts the healing environment, and sometimes the best thing you can do is step back and let others own their journey.  Quotes:  “You can't save anyone. It's not your job. It's not your journey. The best thing you can do is love them where they are.” “Nothing good comes out of desperation. You need to calm your system and support from inspiration, not fear.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Ако това, което правим, ви харесва, можете да ни подкрепите тук: https://www.patreon.com/c/ratiobg В новия епизод на Ratio Talks гост е Пол Блум – психолог, бестселъров автор и един от участниците в тазгодишното Ratio Forum - пролет. Блум е професор в Йейл и Университета в Торонто. Неговите изследвания се фокусират върху необичайните пътища, по които умът ни нарушава собствените си правила – защо понякога съзнателно търсим дискомфорт, защо ни привлича пакостта и какво прави девиацията толкова удовлетворяваща. Той е автор на редица влиятелни книги, сред които Against Empathy, How Pleasure Works и най-новата му – Psych: The Story of the Human Mind, в която разглежда човешкото поведение в цялата му противоречивост. Разговорът е неформален, но засяга теми като утилитаризма, културните препратки в True Detective, както и странните навици, които ни правят хора. Видео към епизода тук: https://youtu.be/OA9qhpIYnUc #english In the new episode of Ratio Talks, our guest is Paul Bloom – psychologist, bestselling author, and participant in this year's Ratio Forum Spring. Bloom teaches at both Yale and the University of Toronto. His research explores why we sometimes seek out discomfort, what draws us to mischief, and why breaking norms can feel so rewarding. His books include Against Empathy, How Pleasure Works, and his latest, Psych: The Story of the Human Mind. In this episode, we talk about utilitarianism, the cultural layers of True Detective, and the quirks that make us human – all in a slightly informal but highly engaging conversation.

This episode of Integrative You Radio dives deep into the real root causes of lactose intolerance, debunking the common myths about genetics and focusing on the body-mind connection. Dr. Nicole Rivera and Dr. Nikki Rizzo break down why gallbladder and liver health are at the core of lactose intolerance, and why it's not just about what runs in your family. The conversation also explores how micro and macro life stressors, emotional expression, and daily choices all impact your physical health—and how true healing is possible when you address both the physical and emotional layers.   #IntegrativeHealth #LactoseIntolerance #GallbladderHealth #LiverDetox #FunctionalMedicine #MindBodyConnection #EmotionalHealing #HolisticWellness #IntegrativeYouRadio #RootCauseHealing   3 Key Takeaways: Lactose intolerance is rarely “just genetics.” It's often a sign of underlying gallbladder dysfunction and liver overload—usually from years of accumulated toxins, not just your DNA. Your emotional health is directly tied to your physical health.Micro-stresses (like tolerating a toxic boss or relationship) and macro traumas both affect your gallbladder and liver, impacting your body's ability to process foods like dairy. Symptoms can be part of healing, not just a problem.Discomfort during detox or emotional breakthroughs is often your body's way of resolving old wounds—so don't panic, get curious, and seek support if you need it.  Quotes:  “Lactose intolerance stems from gallbladder dysfunction… If you can't break down lactose, it's because your gallbladder is not working properly. It's not just your genes.” “Sometimes symptoms are the body's cry for help, and sometimes they're part of the resolution. The key is knowing the difference—and not giving up on yourself.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

In this episode, MichaelAaron and Richard share a first look at their upcoming book Hacking the Human Mind, a guide to applying behavioral science for brand growth. Then, they revisit the Häagen-Dazs case study—exploring how foreign branding and price relativity helped transform everyday ice cream into a luxury experience that set powerful consumer expectations.

I believe that the internal vibrational frequency we radiate synchronizes with reality gifting us with MIRACLES, and come out of nowhere when we least expect it..... Death and loss are wake up calls for radical mental, emotional and spiritual growth. But only if we face it, and choose to process the thoughts and feelings associated with such a loss. Our brain wants to keep us on auto-pilot mode, rather than learning new insightful life-worthy lessons! "I had only two choices on how to deal with yet another Death, wallow in self-pity and guilt or relentlessly search for all the Hidden WISDOM I possibly could find...." ~ Karen Love Lee As I drew from all the past ENLIGHTENMENT I had gained in the recovery of every death up until this point, I was able to TRUST the healing process....regenerating profound feelings of FAITH. "The subconscious mind acts first on the dominating desires which have been mixed with emotional feeling, such as faith." "FAITH is the head chemist of the mind." ~ Napoleon Hill, Author of Think and Grow Rich As I laser focused on elevating self-realization, without being aware that this new wisdom was enhancing my trust and faith, my brain was sending and receiving energetic signals. Napoleon Hill likens this to "radio waves transmitted by the brain."   "Our minds become magnetized with the dominating thoughts we hold in our minds, and these magnets attract to us the forces, the people, the circumstances of the life which harmonize with the nature of our dominating thoughts." ~ Napoleon Hill, Author of Think and Grow Rich The more consistently we align our mental frequency with a wish or goal the more the universe mysteriously shifts to create what is imagined into the material form. Poof! Another horse that has been on my wish-list appears, a Freisian Stallion. But, this time it's a new consciousness experience. Granted, manifesting dream horses is typical for me. But what is atypical is the underlying driving force. In the past I was driven by the unconscious need to bury or hide from pain, not untainted pleasure. This time, I diligently transformed the pain into deeply rooted passion stemming from my soul. Rather than numbing or disguising the problem with a band-aid fix. In retrospect, I used a lot of horses to mask UNconscious insecurities, and vowed not to repeat this unhealthy self-sabotaging pattern. No matter the cost or sacrifice. Because it only prolongs hidden heartache. Learning from my past history, I was able to make a conscious choice to stop this maddening cycle. Ta-dah!!!! As a result of this promise to mySELF, I ended up exponentially elevating my mental, emotional and spiritual acuity to the next-level!!!! More said, this time I didn't use something or someone to cover up or mask my deep-seated inner turmoil and grief. As humans, we are automatically designed to override EMOTIONAL processing in times of crisis, which distorts and deflects us from what eternally matters ~ soulful happiness and fulfillment. In my particular case, if I had distracted myself by getting a quick-fix, adenaline high from simply replacing my deceased horse with a new dream horse, I would have missed all the empowering Evolutionary Consciousness. Hence, intensifying my "Infinite Intelligence." As Napoleon Hill describes it, is the all-pervading intelligence of the universe -- a boundless source of ideas, inspiration, and guidance. It communicates through the subconscious and imagination, and it responds when desire, faith, and action are aligned. "The univers is asking... Show me your new vibration, I will show you miracles." ~ Solancha Bottom line: I ended up embodying the best of both worlds of the Human Mind. The World of Logic and The World of Mysticism.  The Power of Fantasy becoming REAL. Not only did I get radical wisdom, I miraculously magnetized my next DREAM Horse, Arion Vrai!!!! #BelieveInMIRACLES #EmpoweringYouThroughUs 

This episode of Integrative You Radio dives into the real reasons kids “rebel” and push back against their parents. Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick get raw about their own childhoods, family dynamics, and how generational patterns, energy, and authenticity shape the way kids behave. They break down why walking your talk as a parent is everything, and why communication, vulnerability, and self-awareness are the keys to raising empowered, connected kids (and healing yourself along the way).   #ConsciousParenting #GenerationalHealing #FamilyDynamics #AuthenticParenting #ParentingPodcast #IntegrativeYou #WalkYourTalk #ParentingTips #MindfulParenting #FamilyLegacy   3 Key Takeaways: Kids See Through Everything: Children are hyper-aware and pick up on energy, not just words. If you're not walking your talk, they'll call you on it—consciously or not. Connection Over Control: The “why” matters. When kids act out, they usually crave understanding, not just rules. Explaining, connecting, and meeting them at their level (even with dinosaurs!) is a game-changer. Heal Yourself, Heal Your Family: The biggest impact you can make as a parent is showing up as your best, most authentic self. Accountability, vulnerability, and self-reflection create a ripple effect through your kids and even your lineage.  Quotes:  “It's not about what you say, it's about what you do—and it's about your energy. Kids can feel the tension, even if you think you're hiding it.” “You can only really be in control of yourself. If you show up differently, you create the biggest impact on your children—period.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Alpha Hour Exhortation - Episode 1055

Gillespo and I (and Tiff) have spoken about cults before as part of bigger and broader conversations, but in this episode, David literally breaks the process down into the practical science, psychology, and sociology, and walks us through his fascinating (and terrifying) 'Five-Step Protocol for Hijacking the Human Mind. There's so much super interesting stuff in this one, and all you Gillespo superfans will love it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode of Integrative You Radio dives deep into the real reasons some people experience radical health breakthroughs—while others don't. Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick get raw and honest about why following every protocol doesn't guarantee results, why “being the perfect patient” is not the secret, and the three foundational mindset shifts that create true transformation. Through powerful client stories, they unpack the difference between just “feeling better” and actually becoming a new version of yourself. If you're ready to stop hustling for symptom relief and start building a legacy of health, this one's for you.   #IntegrativeYou #FunctionalMedicine #MindsetHealing #GenerationalHealth #RadicalRemission #BreakthroughHealth #HolisticHealing #WellnessPodcast #HealthTransformation #LegacyHealth   3 Key Takeaways: It's Not About Discipline—It's About Mindset: The biggest health breakthroughs come from openness, trust, and having a vision beyond just “feeling better.” Doing all the right things isn't enough if you're not willing to think differently. True Healing Demands Vulnerability: Letting go of control, being willing to get uncomfortable, and breaking old patterns (even generational ones) is what actually creates lasting change—not just supplements and protocols. Symptoms Are Feedback, Not Enemies: Your body's challenges might actually be serving you or teaching you something. The real work is shifting your perspective and asking, “Why do I want to be well—and who am I becoming in the process?”  Quotes:  “It's not about being the A student or doing everything perfectly. The people who get the best results are the ones who are open, trust the process, and have a vision beyond just feeling better.” “Sometimes you just need to burn the old template and build from the ground up. Stop fixing. Start building.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

In this edition of Ghost Chronicles Medium Rare Lesley and Ron delve into Psychic Energy and the Human Mind...

This episode of Integrative You Radio is a real, raw truth bomb about how our culture's obsession with comfort and distraction is quietly wrecking our resilience—and fueling anxiety. Dr. Nicole gets vulnerable about the dangers of over-supporting ourselves and our kids, the illusion of control, and why chasing dopamine hits (hello, social media) keeps us stuck in fear and out of alignment. She shares hard-won lessons from her own journey, calling out the cycle of burnout and how true growth only happens when we surrender to challenge, ask better questions, and make decisions from inspiration—not desperation.   #IntegrativeYou #LimitlessLiving #MindsetShift #Resilience #Redirection #PersonalGrowth #ChallengeToGrow #ConsciousParenting #AlignedLiving #AnxietySolutions #BurnoutRecovery #DrNicoleRivera #AuthenticLiving #InspirationNotDesperation   3 Key Takeaways: Challenge Isn't the Enemy—Distraction Is: We're raising a generation terrified of discomfort, and it's robbing us of wisdom and resilience. Growth happens when we let ourselves (and our loved ones) face challenge head-on, not when we bubble-wrap life. You Can't Control Everything—But You Can Lead by Example: Trying to save others from pain or control every outcome is rooted in fear. The real power is in modeling presence, self-reflection, and aligned action—then letting others walk their own path. Rejection Is Redirection—If You're Paying Attention: When you slow down, get quiet, and ask better questions, you see that what feels like rejection is actually the universe nudging you toward alignment. Make decisions from inspiration, not desperation, and watch your life transform.  Quotes:  “If you stay fucking distracted and you also listen to other miserable people, you're fucked. In plain English, that's what's happening.” “Rejection isn't rejection—it's redirection. But you have to trust it, and you have to be present enough to see where it's leading you.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Dr. Nicole Rivera breaks down the real root causes behind the diabetes epidemic and why simply “managing numbers” isn't enough. She exposes the hidden dangers of processed foods, the limitations of conventional bloodwork, and shares what it actually takes to heal pancreatic function and reclaim your energy, mind, and long-term health. This is a wake-up call for visionary families and leaders who want to create generational health—by getting proactive, not just reactive.   #DiabetesPrevention #PancreaticHealth #IntegrativeMedicine #GenerationalHealth #RootCauseHealing #BloodSugarBalance #FunctionalMedicine #WellnessLeadership #RealFoodRevolution #LiveLimitless   3 Key Takeaways:   Most “normal” bloodwork is missing the full picture.Glucose and even A1C aren't enough—you need a comprehensive look at insulin, amylase, and lipase to truly assess pancreatic health and diabetes risk. Processed foods and chemical additives are sabotaging your pancreas. It's not just about sugar; it's about the hidden chemicals in your everyday foods that disrupt your body's natural ability to regulate blood sugar. You can heal and even reverse blood sugar issues—if you address the root cause. Sustainable results come from real food, lifestyle shifts, and understanding your unique biology—not just popping a pill or chasing “magic” solutions.  Quotes:  “Don't be the person that sits around saying, ‘My glucose has been great,' but you feel like shit. If you relate to the energy crashes, the cravings, the brain fog—there's an opportunity to actually do something about it.” “Are we just manipulating numbers so you feel better about the situation, or are we more interested in solving the root cause and expressing true health so that we don't have to fear disease and dysfunction?”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Read the full transcript here. In light of the replication crisis, should social scientists try to replicate every major finding in the field's history? Why is human memory so faulty? And since human memory is so faulty, why do we take eyewitness testimony in legal contexts so seriously? How different are people's experiences of the world? What are the various failure modes in social science research? How much progress have the social sciences made implementing reforms and applying more rigorous standards? Why does peer review seem so susceptible to importance hacking? When is observation more important than interpretation, and vice versa? Do the top journals contain the least replicable papers? What value do Freud's ideas still provide today? How useful are neo-Freudian therapeutic methods? Should social scientists run studies on LLMs? Which of Paul's books does ChatGPT like the least?Paul Bloom is Professor of Psychology at the University of Toronto, and Brooks and Suzanne Ragen Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Yale University.

Ever wonder why social media posts about food, fashion, or travel get so much love, while the deep stuff barely gets a like? In this episode, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick get real about what's actually behind our scrolling habits, how moving to Italy flipped their perspective, and why living in alignment with your values—not someone else's Instagram highlight reel—is the real flex. They dig into the difference between “should” and “want,” how to turn envy into inspiration, and why it's time to stop waiting for “someday” to start living.   #LiveYourValues #IntentionalLiving #SocialMediaTruth #FamilyLegacy #AuthenticLiving #ConsciousChoices #InspiredAction #ItalyLife #IntegrativeYou #MindfulScrolling   3 Key Takeaways: Social media is a mirror: What grabs your attention online is usually a reflection of what you crave or suppress in real life. Instead of feeling “less than,” use it as feedback to uncover what you truly want. Living in alignment beats living for the ‘gram: The most fulfilling choices come from knowing your own (and your family's) values—not copying someone else's journey or highlight reel. Don't wait for permission to live: Whether it's moving to Italy or just making time for joy, stop playing the “I can't because…” game. Anything is possible when you decide your desires are worth acting on.    Quotes:  “You can sit there and say, good for them, I wish I could do that—and further that scarcity—or you can say, I'm going to make that happen because anything is possible.” “If you think you can or you think you can't, either way, you're right.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Dr. Nicole flies solo to unpack the overlooked root causes behind pet health issues, especially in dogs. She shares personal stories, challenges conventional veterinary practices, and empowers pet owners to seek deeper answers beyond quick fixes and invasive procedures. Nicole highlights how environmental toxins, outdated norms, and fear-driven decisions are at the core of chronic pet conditions, and she offers practical, holistic approaches for truly vibrant animal health.   #HolisticPetCare #RootCauseHealing #IntegrativeHealth #PetWellness #VibrantPets #BeyondConventional #ToxinFreePets #EmpoweredPetOwners #FunctionalMedicine #HealthyDogs   3 Key Takeaways: Root Causes Over Band-Aids: Chronic pet issues like ear infections, eye irritation, and paw licking often stem from environmental toxins and not just bacteria or fungus—address the source, not just the symptoms. Question the Norms: Mainstream pet care advice (kibble, excessive meds, unnecessary surgeries) is often profit-driven and outdated. There's a better way—trust your intuition and don't be afraid to go against the grain. Holistic, Proactive Pet Care: What works for human health applies to pets—think clean food, filtered water, toxin binders, and alternative therapies like homeopathy and red light therapy. Build a support network of holistic vets and always get a second opinion before resorting to drastic treatments.    Quotes:  “Less is more, people. We've been fed so much bullshit about how to protect our dogs—it's all driven by fear and really bad science.” “Don't normalize things just because your environment tells you this is the norm—there are plenty of other parts of the world where it is completely not the norm.   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

In this episode, Dr. Nicole Rivera and Dr. Nick Carruthers challenge the conventional view of parasites, revealing how unresolved emotions—especially anger—can keep you stuck in cycles of chronic infection and poor health. They share personal stories and clinical insights showing that true healing often happens when you address both the mind and the body, not just the symptoms. Sometimes, parasites even play a protective role until you're ready to let go of old emotional patterns. The episode encourages listeners to reflect on how holding onto pain or anger may be hindering their progress, and spotlights the power of emotional healing for lasting, generational health.   #IntegrativeMedicine #MindBodyHealing #ParasiteCleanse #EmotionalHealth #FunctionalMedicine #HolisticHealth #ReleaseAnger #QuantumHealing #GenerationalHealth #IntegrativeYou   3 Key Takeaways: Parasites Aren't Just Physical—They're Emotional: Persistent parasite infections often mirror unresolved emotional states, especially anger. True healing requires addressing both the biochemical and emotional roots, not just taking more supplements. Anger as Fuel (Until It Isn't): Anger can be a powerful motivator, but when it stops serving you, it can keep you stuck—physically and energetically. Letting go of anger can be the missing link to finally clearing stubborn health issues. Your Mind Dictates Your Biology: The body is always seeking balance. When you shift your mindset and beliefs, you create real, measurable changes—sometimes even passing parasites without any supplements, just by doing the deep inner work.    Quotes:  “When you don't need your anger anymore, you will pass your parasites.” “Understanding enhances belief—when you feel supported and know what's happening in your body, your outcomes are better.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

This episode of Integrative You Radio dives deep into the misunderstood world of neurodegenerative diseases—especially ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick unravel the hidden connections between environmental toxins, like cyanide and algae exposure, and the emotional roots of disease, such as self-betrayal and the “Nice Guy Syndrome.” They challenge the conventional view of ALS as just a physical diagnosis, shining a light on how a lack of self-love and unexpressed truth can manifest physically. The Doctors share practical wisdom on breaking free from people-pleasing, the importance of knowing your values, and how real healing starts with radical self-awareness and communication.   #ALS #NeurodegenerativeDisease #SelfLove #IntegrativeMedicine #RootCauseHealing #PeoplePleasing #ValuesDriven #FunctionalMedicine #EmotionalHealth #SpeakYourTruth #HolisticHealth #MindBodyConnection #WellnessJourney #DrNicoleRivera #DrNickCarruthers #IntegrativeYou   3 Key Takeaways: ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases may be linked to cyanide exposure—not just from the environment but from internal sources like cyanobacteria (blue-green algae), highlighting the need for deeper diagnostic approaches. Long-term people-pleasing, self-betrayal, and putting yourself last (especially for parents and caregivers) can create profound stress and disconnection from self, which may contribute to disease. True healing begins with radical self-love, clear communication, and living in alignment with your core values—knowing who you are is the foundation for transformation.    Quotes:  “Every single aspect of disease is literally how far away from love are you? And that will equal the degree of the disease.” – Dr. Nick “If you're not going to speak up and exercise your truth, or stand for yourself, you're mentally not speaking up—and that can manifest as a physical disease.” – Dr. Nicole   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

In this episode of Integrative You Radio, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick dive deep into the concept that “conflict avoided is conflict multiplied.” They explore how isolation—whether from entrepreneurship, chronic illness, or strained relationships—can impact health and happiness, and why honest, humble, and methodical communication is the antidote. Drawing from personal stories, clinical experience, and frameworks like Patrick Lencioni's trust pyramid, they share practical tools for building trust, fostering win-win relationships, and showing up as better leaders, partners, and humans.   #IntegrativeYou #ConflictResolution #TrustBuilding #AuthenticLeadership #EntrepreneurLife #RelationshipGoals #Vulnerability #WinWin #PersonalGrowth #ConsciousCommunication #LimitlessLiving   3 Key Takeaways: Avoiding Conflict = Multiplying Problems: When we dodge uncomfortable conversations—at work, home, or with ourselves—we're actually allowing issues to fester and grow. Facing things head-on (with humility, not aggression) builds trust and leads to better outcomes. Trust Is Built Through Vulnerability and Win-Win Intentions: True trust isn't just about keeping promises; it's about creating space for open, honest dialogue where everyone can win. Vulnerability and methodical communication are the foundation. Quality > Quantity in Relationships: It's not about how many people fill your life, but the depth and fairness of those connections. Prioritizing clear, caring communication transforms relationships—from business to family.    Quotes:  “Conflict avoided is conflict multiplied.

In this episode of Integrative You Radio, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick get real about the dangers of “patchwork” solutions—those quick fixes we use to mask pain or problems instead of getting to the root cause. Using Nicole's own experience with pregnancy pain and arnica as a jumping-off point, they dive into how this mindset shows up in health, relationships, business, and even parenting. The conversation challenges the cultural obsession with “fast, cheap, and easy,” and inspires listeners to choose deep, proactive problem-solving over surface-level band-aids.   #RootCauseHealing #StopThePatchwork #IntegrativeLiving #BeProactive #HolisticHealth #ValuesDrivenLife #MindBodyConnection #PersonalGrowth #IntegrativeYou #LiveLimitless   3 Key Takeaways: Patchwork Solutions Don't Solve Root Problems: Whether it's using natural remedies, medication, or even couples therapy, if you're only addressing symptoms and not the underlying cause, the problem will keep resurfacing—often bigger than before. Being Proactive Beats Being Reactive: True change and growth happen when you invest time, energy, and resources into finding and fixing the root of an issue, instead of waiting for things to break down or spiral out of control. Awareness is Power: Cultivating daily awareness around where you're being proactive vs. reactive—especially in your health, relationships, and business—empowers you to make choices that serve your highest good (and keep you out of the endless “problem circus”).  Quotes:  “Pain's not the problem, it's just the messenger. Let's stop patching the problems—let's fix them.” “Stop thinking that problem solving is easy. If you want to be the leader of your life, your family, or your business, problem solving is part of the job.”   Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify   2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Richard Shotton delves deep into the world of behavioural science, exploring how human psychology profoundly influences marketing strategies. Richard shares his journey from being a media planner to discovering the power of behavioural science through Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point.Richard recounts the pivotal moment when he was working on an NHS brief to encourage blood donations. Reading The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell inspired him to apply behavioural science theories to real-world problems, leading to a successful campaign that dramatically increased blood donations.He explains how applying the findings of 1960s behavioural studies to modern marketing challenges opened up a whole new world for him, shaping his career focus. Richard provides a compelling case study of Avis's famous "We Try Harder" campaign, demonstrating how admitting a flaw can make a brand more appealing. He links this to the pratfall effect, where admitting a minor flaw can make people perceive you as more genuine and trustworthy.Richard talks about the limitations of traditional marketing research methods like surveys and focus groups. He stresses the importance of experimentation and real-world testing to get more accurate insights into consumer behaviour. He introduces the concept of "Mandic Testing," a method of applying A/B testing to surveys to get more accurate insights. This helps in isolating the variables that truly influence consumer behaviour.This episode is packed with actionable insights and real-world examples, making it a must-watch for marketers looking to understand the science behind consumer behaviour.

From witch hunts to cults, from war propaganda to religious honour killings, people are prepared to kill and die for stories they believe in, while others see these narratives as wildly false illusions.Matthew Beaumont is Professor of English at University College London, UK and the author of several books, including two on the topic of late nineteenth-century utopianism.

In this episode of Integrative You Radio, Dr. Nicole Rivera discusses the subjectivity of medicine and healthcare, breaking down the myths surrounding its foundation in science and research. She reveals how personal biases, emotions, and experiences of healthcare providers can influence diagnoses and outcomes.

In this no-holds-barred episode of Integrative You Radio, Dr. Nicole breaks down the myth of modern medicine's obsession with diagnosis. She challenges the mainstream approach of labeling symptoms for the sake of profit, rather than uncovering the root cause of illness. With over 30,000 new diagnostic codes recently added to the system, she questions whether this represents true progress—or just another layer of confusion and dependency designed to feed the pharmaceutical industry. Dr. Nicole urges listeners to ask deeper questions, understand the hierarchy of causes, and stop outsourcing their wellbeing to a system that thrives on chronic disease. Drawing from her own motherhood journey, clinical expertise, and everyday examples, Dr. Nicole emphasizes the importance of embodied knowledge and self-trust. She encourages listeners to step into their power, learn how their bodies work, and know when to seek real, integrative support. This episode isn't just a critique—it's a call to action to become the CEO of your own health, build generational wisdom, and stop blindly accepting surface-level solutions. #RootCauseMedicine #HealthSovereignty #FunctionalMedicine #HolisticHealth #IntegrativeWellness #MedicalFreedom #SelfHealing #BodyIntelligence #DiagnosisDebunked #EmpoweredHealth What you'll learn:     Diagnosis isn't the answer: it's the entry point to profit. Most diagnoses simply label symptoms without addressing their underlying cause, keeping people dependent on external treatments. Healing requires understanding the hierarchy of root causes. Emotional trauma, toxins, and pathogens may all be involved, but identifying what's foundational is key to lasting resolution. You are the authority on your own health: Knowledge is power; educating yourself about food, stress, tech exposure, and daily choices creates long-term wellbeing and autonomy.  Quotes:  “Diagnosis codes don't solve problems—they create identities that fuel an industry."- Dr. Nicole "We're not trying to make you your own doctor—we're trying to help you not need one."- Dr. Nicole Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify 2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

There has been perhaps no greater influence on my views of human behavior than Daniel Kahneman's 2011 book, Thinking Fast And Slow. In the book, Kahneman — a psychologist — makes the case that human behavior is driven by the interplay of two differing modes of thought: System 1 — the fast, instinctive system — and System 2 — the slow, logical one.If you've listened to this podcast, you've almost certainly heard me reference this book. I believe that understanding Kahneman will help us better diagnose the problems we face as pilots. And so, for the next four episodes, released each Thursday over the next four weeks, I'm going straight to the source — exploring Kahneman's book and directly relating his ideas to aviation.

You also can't help but see specific things when you're a practicing practitioner, and if you are really interested in helping people, you gotta do what's right."- Dr. Nicole "There was a direct event on the psyche—a traumatic event, a high-magnitude emotional event—that then created a change in the neurological system in the brain, which affected the corresponding organs."- Dr. Nicole Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube  Apple Spotify 2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

The letters Rx are somehow related to drug stores. But why? What do those letters actually mean? You probably think they have to do with medication or prescriptions or something. But why Rx? What do those letters stand for. This episode begins with an explanation. https://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2014/06/rx-mean-come/ You are SO not the person you once were. Nor are you the person you will one day be. That's according to Paul Bloom, professor of psychology at the University of Toronto and Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Yale. Listen as he discusses what are most likely the happiest years of your life, why you are different from everyone else on the planet and other fascinating intel into how your mind makes you the person you are. Paul is author of the book Psych: The Story of the Human Mind (https://amzn.to/3k524d5). Your future is uncertain. And people generally don't like uncertainty. That because the future may be full of opportunity, but it can also be full of danger and disappointment – and you don't know which one is around the corner. However, there is another way to look at uncertainty which my guest Nathan Furr is here to reveal. Nathan is a professor and author of the book The Upside of Uncertainty (https://amzn.to/3SbJBZ6). Listen as he offers a different way to face the unknown that will minimize risk and amplify opportunity. Dio you know the difference between a road a street an avenue and a boulevard?
