The holidays are coming QUICKLY!If you're anything like me, you're staring at your calendar like “how did we get here, and how is all of this happening in the next 6 weeks?!” It's the time for Thanksgiving prep, Christmas planning, kids' activities, basketball season, and alllll the food-focused events. It's a LOT, and it can totally knock you off your fitness routine if you're not prepared (yep, that used to be me).Honestly, your approach this holiday season depends on your actual life and GOALS. Maybe you're in a season where you need rest, or maybe you're in a solid maintenance groove. Maybe you feel good enough to push a little harder, and really kick ass! There's no right or wrong answer, but whatever season you're in, you've got to be super intentional, and do SOMETHING. Whatever you choose, anchor yourself to 3-4 non-negotiables and redefine what consistency looks like right NOW. Ask yourself what ending the year proud (not perfect) looks like, and then make it happen, friend!Episode recap:Why the holiday season feels chaotic for your fitness goals + how you can still stay intentionalHow to decide if you're in a rest, maintenance, or push season Signs you may need a reset this holiday seasonWhat maintenance really looks like during this seasonWhat a “push” season can look like right nowKey questions to check in with yourself and where YOU are currentlyWhy planning around your real life prevents the annual “restarting in January” cycleHow anchoring to 3-4 non-negotiables keeps you consistent (regardless of the season)What it means to end the year PROUD (not perfect)Links/Resources:Ep. 214 | Getting Back on Track After After Surgery, Illness, Pregnancy, or Major Life EventsGrab your FREE Body Recomp Meal Prep BlueprintListen to the Sol Fit PodcastJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

PLEASE READ THE DISCLAIMER BELOW BEFORE BEGINNING THIS PROGRAM.If you live with chronic pain, fatigue, or illness, you've probably tried everything — medications, treatments, diets — and nothing seems to work long-term. That's because for many people, the real root of chronic symptoms isn't in the body… it's in the brain and nervous system.This video introduces a free 30-day program designed to help you retrain your brain, calm your nervous system, and begin healing from chronic pain and illness — naturally.

Read the full transcript here. What changes when long COVID is split into medical damage, post-viral fatigue, misattribution, and psychosomatic mechanisms? When symptoms soar while tests stay normal, what should count as evidence? When do surveys without controls manufacture a syndrome we then chase? Does renaming “psychosomatic” to “functional” clarify or conceal? If long COVID and severe COVID affect different populations, what follows for causation and care? How do clinicians explain mind–body pathways without sounding dismissive? When is stopping more tests the most scientific decision? What actually helps once the testing spiral ends - graded activity, distraction skills, or non-reactive awareness? Can early diagnosis break fear–avoidance loops before habits harden? How should we meet chronic pain when anatomy is silent? If suffering is real and causes are mixed, how should we measure success? Suzanne O'Sullivan is an Irish physician practising in Britain, specialising in neurology and clinical neurophysiology. In addition to academic publications in her field, O'Sullivan is an author of acclaimed non-fiction focusing on medical casework related to neurology and medically unexplained illness.

In this heartfelt and deeply personal episode, I open up about one of life's most difficult questions: Why do bad things happen to good people? As I record this, I'm navigating my own moment of vulnerability—battling a cough and mild fever while reflecting on what it means to stay faithful when life doesn't feel fair.     Through a tender conversation with my visiting mom, I explore the tension between human suffering and divine love, and how faith can sustain us even when the answers aren't clear. So often, we fall into the trap of believing that illness or hardship is a form of punishment from God—but that couldn't be further from the truth. I share how I've learned to see these moments not as evidence of God's absence, but as reminders of His presence.     We live in a broken world, yes—but God's love never breaks.If you've ever questioned why pain touches those who do good, or felt disappointed by unanswered prayers, this episode will remind you of one powerful truth: you never walk alone. Even in hardship, grace is moving, healing is unfolding, and love is holding you.      

"No fiction author would have had the temerity to invent a disorder of such incredible clinical diversity and puzzling behavior."In the winter of 1916-1917, as World War I raged, physicians in Europe began noticing bizarre cases of brain illness. Thousands arrived at hospitals with high fevers, headaches, confusion, and a host of other factors - suspected at first to be meningitis or even poisoning - yet none of the explanations fit. What all of these patients shared was either an overwhelming drowsiness or psychotic agitation.By late 1918, as the great influenza pandemic struck, this new "sleeping sickness" had spread across Europe and Beyond. Earlier that year, outbreaks were noted in England and the first American case was reported in September. By 1919, enough cases had surfaced worldwide that health officials realized they faced an epidemic of a baffling new illness...Research & writing by Micheal Whelan and Amelia WhiteHosting & production by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.

Client Reviews… ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  Jenny's teachings have produced results reconnecting me with my estranged daughter I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and guidance received in the most tragic time of my life from coach Jenny Good. Her faith, compassion, understanding, dedication and display of radical love has truly been life-changing for me. I was so overwhelmed with feelings of confusion, guilt, and sadness. I felt lost and didn't know how to navigate through the emotional turmoil I was experiencing. However, from the very first call, Jenny created a safe and non-judgmental space for me to share my details. Her ability to listen attentively and empathize while helping me understand a different way of thinking is truly remarkable. She understood my feelings and offered tools each session in ways I have not experienced even from therapy.

After years of struggling with mysterious health issues, Brad Pitzele's life changed dramatically when he was diagnosed with autoimmune arthritis in 2010 and malignant melanoma in 2014. Though his doctors prescribed treatments, Brad grew uneasy about the potential increase in cancer risk these therapies posed. Determined to find a safer, more holistic path, he delved deeper into his health—and uncovered additional infections: Lyme disease and Bartonella. As his fatigue, brain fog, and limited mobility became overwhelming, Brad sought alternatives that could offer real relief.In 2016, his doctor recommended either hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) or exercise with oxygen therapy (EWOT). Intrigued but unimpressed by the systems available, Brad decided to engineer his own EWOT solution. The impact was nothing short of life-changing: within a year, his energy, mental clarity, and physical strength were restored. The transformation was so profound that his doctor soon asked if Brad could build EWOT systems for other patients. That simple request became the inspiration for One Thousand Roads, a company rooted in Brad's firsthand belief that healing should be effective, safe, and accessible.Today, Brad empowers others living with chronic and complex illnesses by sharing his story and explaining how EWOT can accelerate recovery from conditions like Lyme disease, cancer, chronic fatigue, and autoimmune disease. His mission: to help people navigate their own healing journeys, understanding the science behind EWOT and making it an affordable, approachable tool for wellness.Business: One Thousand RoadsEmail: brad@onethousandroads.com  Website: www.OneThousandRoads.com Social Media:LinkedIN - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bradpitzele/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/OneThousandRoadsHQ/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/onethousandroadshq/ Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@onethousandroads Remember to SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss "Information That You Can Use."

Samantha Rux with OSF HealthCare joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about the respiratory illness season and what illnesses are prevalent at the moment. Hand, foot, and mouth disease is on the rise in young children, especially those in daycare, according to OSF HealthCare pediatricians. Classic symptoms include red blisters on the hands, feet, and inside the mouth, along with fever, sore throat, and irritability. While most cases are mild and treated at home, parents should consult a doctor if high fever or worsening symptoms persist. Experts stress the importance of handwashing and disinfecting surfaces to limit the spread. In encouraging news, hospitals report fewer RSV hospitalizations this season, thanks to new prevention tools like maternal vaccines and infant antibodies. It's never too late to get flu, COVID-19, or RSV vaccinations to protect yourself and others. Talk with your primary care provider today regarding vaccinations.

Been unwell, and now feeling a bit lost with your motivation and healthy habits?In this episode, I share how to ease back into exercise safely, rebuild your energy through food, and get your motivation back, without guilt or burnout.You'll learn:

God has no need of anything, yet St. Isaac tells us that He rejoices whenever a man comforts His image and honors it for His sake. The divine joy is found not in what is given but in the mercy that reflects His own. When the poor come to us, it is not their need that is the test but our response to the image of God standing before us. To refuse them is to turn away grace itself, to pass by the honor of having been found worthy to console another. The poor will not be abandoned—God will provide for them—but the one who closes his heart has turned aside the gift of participating in God's own generosity. When we give, we should bless God who has sent us the opportunity; when we have nothing to give, we should bless Him even more for allowing us to share in the poverty of Christ and the saints who walked this same path of want and trust. Illness, too, is a visitation of mercy. God sends sickness for the healing of the soul, as a physician would apply bitter medicine to draw out hidden corruption. A monk who grows careless in his service, St. Isaac says, will be visited by temptation or affliction so that he may not sink deeper into idleness. God does not abandon those who love Him, but when He sees them drifting toward forgetfulness, He sends a trial to awaken them, to make them wise again. And though they may cry out to Him, He delays His response, waiting until they understand that their sufferings arise not from divine neglect but from their own sloth and negligence. His silence is not absence but instruction, a sign that He wishes the soul to seek Him with greater purity and perseverance. Why, we might ask, does the merciful Lord not always answer those who pray with tears? St. Isaac, quoting the prophet, answers: “The Lord's hand is not shortened that it cannot save, but our sins have separated us from Him.” It is not that God cannot hear, but that our hearts have become deafened by self-love. The remedy is remembrance—unceasing recollection of God in all things. When the heart remembers God, He remembers us in the hour of trouble, and what once seemed a wall of silence becomes the threshold of communion. Temptations, St. Isaac says, are as near to us as our own eyelids. They arise not only from without but from within, springing up from the depths of our nature. Yet even this nearness is arranged by divine wisdom so that we might be compelled to knock at His door continually, that through fear and affliction the memory of God might be sown deep within us. The soul learns to pray, not to escape suffering, but to dwell in the presence of the One who alone delivers. Through long entreaty and endurance, we come to perceive that God Himself sustains and forms us, and that this world, with its griefs and trials, is a teacher preparing us for the world to come, our true home and inheritance. God does not make us immune to what is grievous, for such immunity would lead to pride. If we were never wounded, we would imagine ourselves divine and fall into the same delusion as the adversary. It is the burden of the flesh, the uncertainty of our days, the constant approach of temptation, that keeps us humble and dependent upon mercy. Thus, for St. Isaac, every circumstance—whether abundance or lack, health or sickness, prayer answered or unanswered—is arranged by a wisdom beyond our knowing. The goal is always the same: that we might remember God, that our hearts might be softened, and that our lives might be drawn into the rhythm of His compassionate love. The divine mercy, then, is not sentimental but purifying. It allows affliction so that grace may take deeper root. It permits delay so that desire for God might grow more ardent. To the one who endures with thanksgiving, every sorrow becomes a revelation: God, who fashioned and sustains us, is both our Chastiser and our Healer, our Teacher in this passing world and our Father who awaits us in the eternal one. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:01:20 Fr.

In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Linda Bluestein sits down with psychiatrist Dr. Janet Settle to unpack the medical mystery that is mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) and why it may be hiding in plain sight as depression, anxiety, panic attacks, or even psychosis. Together, they explore how immune system dysregulation can masquerade as psychiatric illness, and why so many patients are misdiagnosed, medicated, and misunderstood. With deep expertise in trauma-informed psychiatry, Dr. Settle explains how MCAS and other overlooked conditions could be the real cause behind persistent mental health symptoms and what it takes to finally get the right diagnosis. Takeaways: Dr. Settle explains how MCAS can present as psychiatric symptoms like panic, depression, or brain fog—long before classic allergy symptoms appear. The conversation explores how common psych meds can actually exacerbate MCAS-related symptoms in some patients, leading to confusing outcomes. Learn how past trauma and immune dysregulation may work together to create a complex feedback loop—affecting mood, cognition, and inflammation. Many patients are labeled with mental illness for years before MCAS or other immune-based conditions are considered. Dr. Settle shares why this misdiagnosis is so common. Discover how identifying MCAS and understanding its psychiatric presentations can open the door to treatments that actually work—and a life patients didn't think was possible.

The Sacred Duty of Healthcare: A Conversation with Theresa BrownIn this episode of The Girl Doc Survival Guide, Christine interviews Theresa Brown, PhD, RN, a registered nurse, New York Times bestselling author, and cancer survivor. The discussion delves into Brown's experiences as both a clinician and a patient, highlighting the emotional challenges and the need for compassion in healthcare. Brown shares insights from her books, 'The Shift' and 'Healing,' and talks about her upcoming book, 'A Nurse Finds Hope in Healthcare.' The conversation explores the significance of listening to patients, the emotional toll of illness, and the struggles healthcare professionals face within a corporatized system. Both agree on the importance of empathy, self-care, and the need to improve the patient-caregiver relationship.00:00 Introduction to Theresa Brown, PhD, RN00:52 Theresa's Journey from Academia to Nursing01:09 Insights from 'Healing': A Nurse's Perspective as a Patient01:56 The Emotional and Physical Challenges of Cancer Treatment04:06 The Importance of Compassion and Communication in Healthcare05:20 Balancing Information and Emotional Support for Patients06:16 Personal Stories and Reflections on Patient Care07:14 The Impact of Personal Illness on Healthcare Professionals17:23 Finding Hope and Purpose in Healthcare20:28 Final Thoughts and Reflections

What if the aches, tension, and fatigue you've been fighting are your emotions asking to be felt? We unpack the research on emotional suppression and show how a nervous system stuck in “danger” can translate stress into very real pain/illness—without structural damage. Drawing on studies of suppression and stress reactivity and clinical insights from neuroplastic pain work, we make the science practical, humane, and doable in everyday life.We walk through four patterns that keep feelings trapped in the body. Alexithymia makes it hard to notice and name what's happening inside, so emotions “appear” as symptoms or outbursts. Viewing sensations as dangerous turns normal states like sadness or excitement into alarms you try to outrun. Avoidance behaviors—angry cleaning, overworking, caretaking, doom scrolling, perfectionism, sweets or alcohol—numb for a moment but teach the brain that inner experience is unsafe. Invalidation finishes the loop with self talk like “others have it worse,” which buries signals you need to actually heal. You'll hear candid stories about misreading sensations, blowing past capacity, and how simple validation can redirect an entire day.Then we offer a clear, repeatable healing cycle. Use short embodiment practices to connect with sensations safely. Approach feelings with curiosity and compassion, noticing qualities like tight, buzzy, heavy, or warm. As safety grows, the nervous system downshifts on its own and symptoms desensitize. We talk about working within your window of tolerance, using strategic avoidance when you're flooded, and choosing small, consistent check ins that build confidence. By learning to surf emotional waves instead of suppressing them, you teach your brain that discomfort isn't danger—and relief follows.If this resonates, press play and try the guided check in with us.

The “Big Food” marketing tricks exist for the bottom line of making money with low quality food-like-products that cost consumers a lot more than the cost of production. Some of the terms to be aware of when it comes to supposedly healthy foods. For instance, “net carbs” is a phrase used when they subtract the fiber and sugar alcohol from the total carbohydrate count to trick the unsuspecting buyer, to get consumers to buy into thinking that the rest of the carbs don't matter, and that's not accurate. Then, Doug and Dr. Jack shed light on the E. coli outbreak from McDonald's Quarter Pounders, On the topic of food-borne illnesses, the gentlemen break down the difference between E.

In Hour 2, Steiny and Evan are joined by Kenny Caraway of ESPN Sacramento to discuss tonight's matchup between the Warriors and Kings.

Those who are in work are taking more sick leave. New research by Southern Cross Health Insurance and Business NZ has found an average staff member took almost seven days of sick leave last year, up 1.4 from two years earlier. It's costing the country about $4 billion a year. Business NZ Chief Executive Katherine Rich told Mike Hosking the rise in leave entitlements has had an impact, but many employees are also doing what they've been told, staying home when sick so they don't pass it onto their coworkers. She says post Covid, people think more about their wellness and are less likely to solider on like the Codral ad. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Let's be real - getting “back on track” after something hard (whether it's a surgery, illness, pregnancy, or just life throwing you a massive curveball) can feel nearly impossible. I've had my fair share of those moments lately. My body, my mind, and my emotions have been through a LOT over this last year honestly. The truth though? You're not starting from zero, and you haven't “lost” all your progress when you're coming back from {xyz}. You don't need to “bounce back “ - you need a mindset shift!Structure comes before intensity. Start small, and focus on one or two anchor habits (i.e. walking daily, increasing hydration, or prioritizing protein). You've got to adjust your expectations because you are NOT the same person you were before that event, and that's okay! Give yourself some freaking grace, because healing isn't just physical - it's mental and emotional, too.Episode recap:Why you need to shift your mindset FIRSTChoosing to start small + rebuild your routineThe importance of adjusting expectations & meeting yourself where you areFueling your recovery by prioritizing eating ENOUGH foodRealizing that healing is mental and physicalWhy setbacks aren't failure, but a way to help you move forwardLeaning on your community and finding accountabilityReal & encouraging stories from ladies in my communityLinks/Resources:Ep. 133 | Taking ‘Breaks' on Your Fitness Journey for Pregnancy, Injuries, Mental Health Struggles, and MoreGrab your FREE Body Recomp Meal Prep BlueprintListen to the Sol Fit PodcastJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

Gold, M.D.Library of Congress Council of Scholars, Former Investigator in the Intramural Research Program of the NIMH.It has been over 50 years of medical practice and teaching for understanding what is needed to navigate the obstacles in the way of a peaceful departure. The subject of his commencement speech at the Duke Medical School graduation in 1970 concerned the lack of human understanding in medical education.The most  human of understandings, the wisdom to accept illness, old age (if you are lucky), and death, is called existential intelligence. This is the core intelligence of Doctor Horton's two current books and the ones to follow.He is the author of "Good to Go: Five Understandings to Navigate a Peaceful and Elegant Last Chapter of Life." https://drjohnhorton.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

Author Jonathan Gluck says most cancer stories take one of two forms:  “He or she fought valiantly and died, or he or she fought valiantly and survived.” But Gluck, who was told in the prime of life that he had an incurable type of blood cancer, has a different kind of story.  Dr. Sanjay Gupta sits down with Gluck to discuss his new book, “An Exercise in Uncertainty: A Memoir of Illness and Hope,” and what two decades of living with cancer have taught him – and might teach us – about living well.

"Marriage First" Makes Your Life Unstable At the end of my life, I want to hear the words, "Well done, good and faithful servant."  That's the goal that keeps me grounded—and I know many of you share that desire. But here's a hard truth I've learned through years of walking with couples: when our marriage or family becomes our first priority instead of God, everything starts to crumble. Why "Family First" Doesn't Work I once had a conversation with someone I deeply love who said, "You think God has to be first—but I think family should be first." His heart was sincere, but the fruit of that mindset showed otherwise.  When family is first, everything depends on emotions—how your spouse treats you, how the kids behave, whether things feel peaceful at home. That's not stability. That's shifting sand. We see the effects of this all around us. Divorce rates hover around 50%. Even pastors and counselors admit they rarely had a healthy marriage modeled for them.  Most people are doing their best, but without a biblical foundation, their "best" can't hold up when life gets hard. The Biblical Order That Brings Stability Scripture gives us the right order: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. And love your neighbor as yourself." — Mark 12:30–31 That means I love my first neighbor—my spouse—because I love God. Why do I forgive in marriage? Because God is first.Why do I love my husband well? Because God is first.Why do I serve my family with joy? Because God is first. When we build our lives on that rock, we become steady—even when the storms hit.  Illness, loss, special needs, mental health struggles—these things shake every marriage. But when God comes first, everything else finds its right place. Feelings Aren't God—God's Word Is We live in a "follow your feelings" culture. If you don't feel in love anymore, the world says, find someone new. But feelings aren't truth. God's Word is. You're serving the King of Kings, and your marriage is part of that assignment. Like the Roman soldiers in Gladiator fought for the glory of Rome; as believers, we live for the glory of God. That means our choices in marriage—our words, our intimacy, our tone—should all be for His glory. Believers are called to die to ourselves. That includes our moods and even our sexual desires.  Scripture is clear: "Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time... then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you." — 1 Corinthians 7:5 That's not about coercion or obligation—it's about love expressed God's way.  When I choose intimacy with my husband, it's not because I feel like it every time. It's because I love God. And when I embrace His design with joy, the byproduct is a beautiful, connected marriage. Marriage as a Path to Holiness Author Gary Thomas famously asked, "What if marriage is meant to make us holy, not happy?" The amazing thing is—when we pursue holiness, happiness often follows. That's why we teach the Delight Your Marriage Framework: Husbands need to have respect, admiration, and wholehearted intimacy. Wives need to feel safe, known, and wholeheartedly cherished. We love our spouse in the way they receive love, not the way we prefer to give it. Because real love is about understanding and serving the other. (You can download the full framework at DelightYourMarriage.com/framework.) The Power of God's Word to Transform David Wood—a former atheist and sociopath whose life was radically changed by Scripture. Even after becoming a Christian, he noticed that when he stopped reading the Bible for a few days, dark thoughts would return. That's how powerful God's Word is—it changes us from the inside out. If you're struggling to love your spouse, to forgive, to stay faithful, start here: get your nose in the Word. Not scrolling. Not skimming. Reading. Slowly. With a heart open to hear God. Even one verse a day in a physical Bible can soften your heart. Make it a habit. Let the Word wash over you. Final Thoughts If you have put your marriage above Jesus, it's not too late to turn it around. He is a safe person to put your trust in. You can trust His Word and His design. It is on purpose, for a purpose… and it is Good.   Blessings,   The Delight Your Marriage Team   PS - If you are interested in taking the next step, putting God first, above your marriage, we would love to talk with you.
