    Ever notice when you hear someone talking on the phone nearby it's hard not to listen? You are only hearing one-side of the conversation and that can drive your brain crazy. It's not just annoying and distracting it can actually be dangerous. https://now.uiowa.edu/news/2017/06/ui-study-explores-why-cell-phone-use-leads-distracted-driving It's hard to imagine life without GPS. But now it has become so woven into daily life that most of us never think about it. We use it to navigate, order food, track packages, find rides, locate our phones and even synchronize financial transactions. Yet GPS wasn't created for that. It began as a military technology and evolved into one of the most important—and expensive—infrastructure systems ever built. How does GPS actually know where you are? Why is it free to use? Who pays for it? Is it spying on you? Here to explain is Katherine Dunn, business reporter, editor and author of the book Little Blue Dot: How GPS Shaped the Modern World (https://amzn.to/4uvtk2M). Why is it that millions of people experience chronic pain, fatigue, digestive problems and other ailments that doctors and medical tests often fail to explain? Too often they're told "it's all in your head." But according to psychiatrist Susan Trachman, that phrase badly misunderstands what's happening. The connection between the brain and body is far more powerful than most people realize. Thoughts, emotions and stress can trigger genuine physical symptoms—and understanding how can be the key to finding relief. Susan has spent more than 30 years treating medically unexplained illnesses. She is author of the popular Psychology Today blog and the book It's Not Just in Your Head.

    Toko-pa Turner is an author, dreamworker, and teacher whose work explores the profound relationship between dreams, belonging, and the human psyche. Drawing from the mystical tradition of Sufism and Jungian psychology, Toko-pa invites people to see dreams not as random events, but as living conversations with a deeper intelligence that guides us toward wholeness. Her award-winning books, Belonging: Remembering Ourselves Home and The Dreaming Way: Courting the Wisdom of Dreams, encourage readers to reconnect with the symbolic language of the soul and rediscover belonging as an inner, evolving experience rather than something to be found outside themselves. In this episode, host Shay Beider and Toko-pa explore how dreams can become trusted companions on the healing journey, offering insight into the parts of ourselves that long to be seen, understood, and integrated. Toko-pa shares how her own experiences growing up in a spiritual community marked by both beauty and abuse led her to the work of Carl Jung, where she discovered that much of our suffering stems from the divide between our public selves and our hidden inner lives. Together, they discuss the role of shadow work, the meaning behind recurring dreams and nightmares, and why approaching dreams with curiosity rather than fear allows them to become powerful allies in personal growth. Toko-pa explains that metaphors are the psyche's native language, serving as a bridge between the visible and invisible worlds, and that dreams often reveal our deepest potential long before we consciously recognize it. Rather than searching for belonging in external places, she invites listeners to see periods of exile, uncertainty, and even loneliness as essential parts of discovering who they truly are. Their conversation is a reminder that healing is not about becoming someone new, but about remembering the wholeness that has always existed within us—and allowing our dreams to gently lead us back home.

    The Metaphysical Hour with Julia Cannon and Tracie Mahan and Question Master Tiffanny Shining the Grid, Moving Timelines, and Remembering You Are the Gift Lighting Up the Grid Together In this episode of The Metaphysical Hour, hosts Julia Cannon, Tracie Mahan, and Tiffany welcome viewers into a lively, intuitive, and highly interactive broadcast. Julia opens by inviting listeners to “shine your light,” and the hosts describe a visual of individual beams rising from each person, expanding outward, overlapping, and strengthening the energetic grid around the planet. This becomes the spiritual foundation of the episode: each person's light matters, and when people gather with intention, their energy expands beyond themselves. Questions, Community, and Tiffany the Question Goddess The hosts explain how listeners can submit questions, especially by addressing them clearly to Tiffany so she can find them in the comment stream. The show has a playful rhythm from the start, with Julia, Tracie, and Tiffany joking about titles such as “Goddess Tiffany,” “Princess Tiffany,” and “Question Master Tiffany.” Beneath the humor, the structure is practical: the episode relies on audience participation, live questions, and intuitive responses from the hosts. Energy Is Moving Forward Julia and Tracie discuss the current energy, describing it as something that had felt stuck but now seems to be moving forward. Tracie connects this to her own life, sharing that an offer she made on a house was accepted after a long period of waiting. She reflects that delays are often tied to lessons, and that life may not move until a person has received the realization or growth needed to move with it. The hosts frame this as a broader message for listeners: when something finally opens, it may be because the soul has reached the readiness point. Tracie's House, Manifestation, and Letting Go of an Old Self Tracie's house story becomes a personal teaching about manifestation, timing, and self-worth. She explains that she had to put in the offer and “go for it,” rather than holding back. She also sees the move as symbolic of releasing an old version of herself: the version that always lets other people go first. The new house is smaller, so the move will also require physical letting go. Julia and Tiffany help frame the experience as a manifestation process, encouraging ease, trust, and the belief that everything can come together smoothly. Words, Memory, and the Tools That Change How We Think The hosts briefly joke about spelling, autocorrect, old phone numbers, and the way modern tools can change memory habits. They compare the past, when people memorized many phone numbers, to the present, when devices remember for us. The conversation is humorous, but it also reflects one of the episode's underlying themes: technology may assist us, but it can also change how we use our own minds. The hosts keep the tone light, even singing part of the old “867-5309” number from the Tommy Tutone song. Many Truths, One Love A major philosophical theme emerges when the hosts discuss truth. Julia says people have often fought wars and religious battles because they believed there was only one truth. Now, she says, people are waking up to the idea that each person has their own truth, timeline, perception, and experience. Tracie adds that multiple people can be right at the same time. The one unifying truth they suggest may be love, because love is the fabric connecting everything. This becomes one of the episode's clearest spiritual teachings: personal truth can differ, but love can hold it all together. A Spider, a Web, and Creating Reality During the broadcast, a spider crawls across Julia's monitor, and the hosts immediately interpret it symbolically. They connect the spider to weaving webs and creating reality. The timing is treated as meaningful because it appears just as they are talking about personal truth and manifestation. The spider becomes a small living metaphor for the way each person creates their own web of experience through thoughts, choices, beliefs, and perception. Disclosure Day, Hidden Symbols, and Awakening A listener asks about the film Disclosure Day. Julia has not seen it yet and does not want spoilers, so Tracie and Tiffany discuss it carefully. Tracie says she received a message from the Arcturians that the movie contains hidden symbols, subliminal messages, and activation points designed to support awakening and prepare people for deeper disclosure. Tiffany shares that after seeing the film, she slept heavily the next day, which the hosts interpret as a possible sign of processing the energies or activations embedded in the movie. The Dream of the Christmas Party and Receiving Your Gifts A listener describes a dream about being angry at a Christmas party because she was not kept in the loop and had nothing to give in the gift exchange. Julia and Tracie interpret the dream from several angles. At first, it appears to involve control, missing out, or feeling unprepared. Then the interpretation deepens: the dream may be about spiritual gifts. Everyone else has gifts to exchange, while the dreamer feels she has none, even though someone is trying to hand her an envelope. The hosts encourage her to stop resisting and recognize that she herself is the gift. Deja Vu, Timelines, and Soul Rehearsals Another listener asks about having more déjà vu than usual. Julia explains that déjà vu may happen because the soul rehearses upcoming events in the dream state, testing different timelines and choosing the one that best supports the desired outcome. Tracie adds that déjà vu can mean the person is “in the groove” and moving into a timeline they have already prepared for. Rather than treating déjà vu as random, the hosts frame it as evidence of soul planning, timeline movement, and readiness. Free Will, Agreements, and the Power of Words A listener asks whether free will can change soul contracts and why people would be “slaves” to contracts. Julia immediately reframes the language, saying she prefers agreements rather than contracts, because “slave” and “contract” carry heavy energy. She explains that souls make agreements before incarnating to help each other accomplish certain lessons or experiences, but free will still operates through how a person reacts, thinks, speaks, and chooses. The hosts emphasize that words are powerful, and that people create their personal realities through the energy of their language, beliefs, and reactions. Not My World: Choosing What Reality to Feed Julia and Tracie discuss the importance of not absorbing every fearful narrative from the outside world. Tracie tells a story about someone who felt terrified after political events, even though nothing unsafe was actually happening in her own neighborhood. The hosts explain that people often create fear by focusing on realities that are not directly theirs. Julia's repeated phrase “not my world” becomes a spiritual practice: choosing not to feed fear-based realities that do not belong to one's own lived experience. Pets, Illness, and What They Reflect A listener asks whether “Soul Speak” can be used with pets, especially elderly or ill animals. Julia explains that pets can reflect what is going on in the home or in their human companions. Rather than simply trying to fix the pet, she says people should ask what the animal's illness may be showing them. Tiffany shares that her cat has diabetes, and Julia interprets diabetes as connected to joy, sweetness, balance, and the need to remember fun and life beyond drudgery. When the human begins shifting, the pet may also respond. Summer Solstice, Subtle Signs, and Contact Preparation Near the end, the hosts respond to a question about the summer solstice. Tracie senses a shift, describing it as a kind of yin-yang movement. Julia says subtle things may happen in the background that later become much bigger, so listeners should pay attention. She encourages people to focus on joy, rest, saying no when needed, walking, and doing things that make them happy. The conversation also connects to future contact, with the hosts encouraging listeners to notice subtle dreams, sky experiences, ship visits, and moments that may prepare the mind to perceive more. Closing With Joy, Contact, and Expansion The episode ends abruptly as the hosts are being kicked off the stream, but not before Julia emphasizes that the mind is like a filter: it only lets people see what they are ready to see. As listeners expand, the filter expands, allowing them to notice more of what has always been present. The closing message is one of trust, joy, subtle awareness, and readiness for more: more contact, more movement, more truth, and “much, much more.”

    Send us Fan MailOne tiny tick can change what you can safely eat for years, and sometimes the reaction doesn't show up until hours after dinner. From the Speaking of Women's Health Sunflower House, host Dr. Holly Thacker walks through summer health essentials, then goes deep on tick-borne illness and the fast-growing concern of alpha-gal syndrome, a red meat allergy that can follow a bite from the lone star tick and other species.She covers the practical stuff first: hydration and heat safety, UV protection for skin and eyes, smart ways to keep exercising in hot weather, mosquito control, and what to do (and not do) when poison ivy shows up. She also revisits water safety rules that saves lives, especially for children, including swimming lessons, life jackets, and why alcohol and water activities do not mix.Then she shifts to ticks: why people often never notice a bite, how ticks spread multiple pathogens, and why Lyme disease is still a major threat. She breaks down alpha-gal symptoms that can look “random” because they may appear two to six hours after eating mammalian meat or dairy, from hives and GI distress to swelling, wheezing, fainting, and anaphylaxis. Finally, she shares timely updates on new federal momentum to combat Lyme disease and accelerate alpha-gal research, plus intriguing early data on an unusual auricular allergy treatment approach that deserves careful study.Support the show

    What if illness wasn’t just something to endure — but a sacred space where God does His deepest work? In this episode, Bill sits down with Dr. Robert Marks, a practicing gastroenterologist, and Dr. Dana Blake, a physical therapist and professor, to discuss their powerful book Crucible of Illness. Together they explore a radical biblical perspective: that life-threatening illness, pain, and suffering are not the end of the story, but a portal through which faith matures and grace is revealed. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a student, a resident or someone walking through your own valley, this conversation will challenge, encourage, and reframe the way you think about suffering, hope, and the God who meets us in the middle of it all.

    Before the Target collabs, before the McCormick's deal, before millions of people called her their favorite auntie on the internet,Tabitha Brown was sitting in the dark, convinced she was dying. In one of the most honest conversations Happy With Tammi Mac has ever produced, host Tammi Mac creates a sacred space for Tabitha Brown to go all the way back. Back to 2016 and 2017, when she spent over a year battling a mysterious autoimmune illness that left doctors baffled and left Tabitha terrified. With a headache that lasted one year and seven months, vision loss, chronic pain, and failing strength in her hands, Tabitha's mind went to the place she feared most, her mother. Her mother, who died of ALS at just 51. Her mother, who was told by doctors that it was all in her head for 11 months, before being given six months to two years to live. Tabitha saw the mirror. And she prepared herself for the end. What saved her wasn't another doctor's appointment. It was a documentary. A conversation with her daughter. A decision to go vegan for 30 days. And on Day 10, the headache that had been her constant companion for nearly two years was gone. This episode moves through all three segments of Happy With Tammi Mac: The Dark Journey, Tabitha's health crisis and grief; The Turning Point, the plant-based decision that changed her biology and her destiny; and Finding Happy, what it means to look back at the viral car video that launched everything and choose gratitude over forgetting. Tammi Mac also shares her own story, the pandemic depression that inspired this entire podcast, reminding us that sometimes the most honest thing you can say is "I did this for me." This episode is for anyone who has been dismissed by a doctor. For anyone who has watched someone they love die too young. For anyone who has sat in the silence of a body that won't cooperate and a mind that has started saying goodbye. And for anyone who needs proof that a turning point is still possible. Happiness has been a hard word to come by, but it will exist again.

    This is one of the most vulnerable episodes I've ever recorded. The last 8 months haven't looked like “disciplined athlete life.” They've looked like grief. Morning sickness. A stress fracture scare. Illness. Pregnancy symptoms. And a body that simply couldn't do what it used to. And if I'm being honest… I didn't handle it well at first. I felt frustrated. Guilty. Angry. Like I was losing a part of myself. In this episode, I'm sharing what it actually felt like to lose fitness in a season where I didn't choose to slow down… and how I'm finally starting to surrender instead of fight it. We talk about: Why losing fitness can feel so personal (especially for runners) The mental spiral of “I should be doing more” The difference between giving up vs. being forced to pivot What it looks like to honor your body without labeling it as laziness If you're in a season where running feels harder… or life is just heavier… this episode is for you.

    Lyme disease is a real lemon. Despite mainstream medicine building a consensus about Lyme Disease and Alpha-Gal Syndrome, and despite conspiracies surrounding the rejection of that consensus in favor of laboratory experiments gone wrong (or as planned), these "diseases" work on assumption and statical fraud: Lyme is caused by the Deer Tick, which is associated in general with the disease, and a set of symptoms that are the body's reaction to nearly every potential hazard; AGS is caused by the Lone Star Tick, which is associated in general with an allergic reaction. In both cases, only a percentage of the people “infected” come down symptoms that could also be the result of poor dietary and lifestyle habits — see fatigue and bodily pain. The fact is, visit the doctor with the symptoms in 2021, you have COVID; visit the doctor today and you have Lyme or AGS. As for red meat allergies caused by ticks, the case by case reporting is hype and assumption/association. Are there weaponized ticks being dropped off in boxes in the woods? Probably not, considering “tick boxes” are very real preventative measures that can be purchased to attract the bugs for extermination. While we are busy arguing and calling each other names, a whole other reality awaits. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

They get into what it's like to be labeled early, play for a mentally and emotionally abusive coach, walk away from a five–year full ride, use the transfer portal the right way, and rebuild your love for the game inside a healthy culture.

She was not the obvious star, did not get the perfect first college fit, and did not ride one school from freshman year to senior night. She put her head down, worked, made brutal decisions when things were unhealthy, and trusted that there was something better on the other side of uncomfortable moves. For athletes and parents, her story is a clear reminder that depth charts, team labels, and early recruiting wins do not decide your ceiling.

What did a Neanderthal do if she broke a rib or had a toothache?  Flora digs into these questions with archaeologist Penny Spikins and microbiologist Laura Weyrich.

    Struggling with stubborn biotoxin illness (CIRS) and feeling stuck in your recovery? In this episode, we break down some of the most important (and often overlooked) steps in the Shoemaker Protocol, including binders, MARCoNS treatment, and gut support. Learn how binders like cholestyramine and Welchol work differently to remove biotoxins, why the wrong detox approach can trigger setbacks, and how to track your progress with tools like the Visual Contrast Sensitivity (VCS) test. We also dive into MARCoNS: why it's so common in CIRS patients, how it impacts MSH and overall health, and the treatment options available, from prescription nasal sprays to over-the-counter approaches. Plus, we discuss biofilms, reinfection risks, pet testing, and practical strategies for breaking the cycle. Whether you're just getting started or looking to optimize your treatment plan, this episode will help you better understand the next critical steps in recovering from CIRS and mold-related illness.

    You've done the work. You cleaned up your diet, fixed your sleep, addressed your metabolic health — and something is still wrong. Brain fog you can't explain. Fatigue that won't move. Weight creeping up for no apparent reason. Personality changes your family notices before you do.Nurse practitioner Ally D'Amico spent 14 years watching patients spiral through specialists, collect diagnoses like fibromyalgia and chronic depression, and never actually get better — until she stumbled onto the thing nobody in conventional medicine was looking for. One in four people carry a genetic predisposition that prevents them from clearing a common environmental toxin. Fifty percent of homes contain it. And the insurance system doesn't even have a billing code for it.If you've ruled everything else out, or if you're still not all the way back — this conversation is worth your time.BIG IDEAMold toxicity masquerades as fibromyalgia, chronic depression, brain fog, and metabolic dysfunction — and one in four people are genetically unable to clear it on their own.Ally's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ally-d%E2%80%99amico-anp-bc-4b596015/Website: https://www.moldco.com/MoldCo's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/moldco/IG: @themoldcompanyX: @themoldcompanySend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

    Twenty-five years of being dismissed, misdiagnosed, and told it was all in her head. By the time Elena Herning finally got answers, she had lost her home, her belongings, her ability to drive, and very nearly her life. In this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Elena Herning, patient advocate and TruDOSE™ ambassador, to trace her harrowing journey through undiagnosed Lyme disease, co-infections, toxic mold exposure, mast cell activation syndrome, POTS, MOG antibody disease, and COVID - and the single therapy that finally turned it all around. Elena breaks down what dose-specific IV platelet-rich plasma (TruDOSE™) actually does inside the body, why it crosses the blood-brain barrier, how it unwinds inflammatory loops that conventional medicine never addresses, and what it felt like to go from writing goodbye letters to her children to logging mile six on a treadmill.

    If you've been wondering why some people seem to experience major shifts in their health while others stay stuck in the same cycle for years, this episode explores five decisions that repeatedly appear in stories of remission, recovery, and unexpected improvement.In this episode of Renegade Remission, we look at the turning points that often happen before symptoms improve. Across documented recovery stories, meaningful change rarely begins with one dramatic intervention. More often, it starts when people begin changing the conditions their bodies are operating within; reducing chronic stress, reevaluating environments and routines, supporting the body more consistently, and staying engaged long enough for biology to respond.From there, we break down the science behind why these decisions matter biologically, including how chronic stress affects inflammation and hormone signaling, how the nervous system influences repair processes, and why repeated daily inputs shape long-term health more than isolated actions ever could.In this episode, you'll understand:The five decisions that repeatedly appear in stories of healing and recoveryWhy change often begins long before symptoms improveHow stress, environment, and daily habits directly influence biologyWhy consistency matters more than intensity when supporting healingHow to begin identifying the patterns that may be helping—or straining—your bodyListen now to understand why healing often begins with a change in direction, and how small, repeated decisions can gradually reshape the conditions your body responds to.DISCLAIMERThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

    Is your chiropractic practice actually a sellable business, or have you accidentally built yourself a job? In this follow-up conversation on preparing your practice for sale, Dr. Lauryn sits down with Dr. Jay LaGuardia to unpack the numbers, systems, and blind spots that determine whether a clinic becomes a valuable asset or quietly closes its doors.Together, they break down EBITDA, practice valuation, multipliers, profitability, private equity, succession planning, and why gross revenue alone does not determine what your practice is worth. Dr. Jay also shares why chiropractors need to increase their financial IQ, how strong systems and predictable cash flow raise practice value, and why waiting until you're tired, injured, or ready to retire may cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars.Key Takeaways:Your practice valuation is based on profitability, predictable cash flow, systems, team, brand, and future earning potential—not just gross revenue. A high-revenue practice can be worth less than a smaller, more profitable clinic if the business fundamentals are weak.EBITDA and multipliers are essential concepts for chiropractic practice owners to understand before they ever think about selling. The stronger your systems, documentation, team, cash flow, and patient base, the stronger your multiplier can become.Chiropractors need to start preparing for succession three to five years before they plan to exit. Illness, disability, burnout, and unexpected life changes can destroy practice value quickly if there is no plan in place.Financial IQ and business IQ are no longer optional for clinic owners. Learning how to read a P&L, understand payroll metrics, and make decisions from abundance instead of scarcity can dramatically change the future of your practice.Guest Bio:Dr. Jay LaGuardia has been an entrepreneurial enthusiast for more than 45 years, beginning his first business journey at just 12 years old. Over the course of his career, he has opened 18 companies across multiple industries, including chiropractic offices, coaching companies, real estate development, fitness studios, podcasting, and more.

    What do we do when things in life don't go the way we expected? How do we react when things do not go the way we expected? Life is full of “off the rail” moments - John 16:33 There is no one here who can escape the problems of life that come up in a way that interferes with our lives as we intended. •    Illness and Injury •    Persecution •    Job or Financial Situations•    Marriage problems •    Natural Disasters •    Death Following Jesus will cause some “off the rail” momentsLuke 8:22–25 Matthew 8:23–27 Mark 4:36–41 Following Jesus does not keep us from life's problems. Many great believers doing great things for God have suffered and even died from the sicknesses and difficulties of life that everyone else experiences. And these scary and tragic events in life hurt just the same. When life goes “off the rails,” our faith in Jesus can be tested. The disciples panicked... but Jesus was calm. In this they did right . . . when we are fearful or hurting,  1 Peter 5:7 “casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.” We accuse God of not caring about us, but really it is the other way around. The truth is that Jesus knows what is best for us, and out of his great love, he will take us through the storms we don't want. So the ultimate truth is, the disciples did not understand who they had in the boat with them. 1.  The disciples that they had an earthly, but spiritual messiah. They wanted to be the head of his kingdom on earth. 2. They knew Jesus was powerful, but they were still coming to terms with how great his power was. 3.  They did not understand that Jesus was God incarnate. But we have the full picture...Colossians 1:15-17 Would you turn back to Genesis 1:1–2 “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.” God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. This is the God that reigns - completely in control of our off-the-rail moments. We can trust him, and we can obey him.

After years of severe gut issues, exhaustion, eating disorders, and feeling disconnected from herself, she realized her body wasn't failing her—it was desperately trying to communicate. What followed was a complete transformation that led her from the fashion world into holistic healing and somatic work.Together, Julie and Eva dive into the fascinating connections between trauma, parasites, inflammation, ancestral patterns, and the nervous system. They explore why many detox protocols can backfire, how emotional wounds may manifest physically, and why being told to “just live with it” can deeply impact healing. Packed with powerful insights, practical wellness tools, and inspiring stories of transformation, this episode offers hope for anyone who feels unheard, stuck, or exhausted from searching for answers.Guest Biography:Eva Hooft is a somatic & Detox Practitioner and works as a medical intuitive.

    This week on Pot Luck Saturday, Kev and Kelsey get real about social media, burnout, wellness overload, and the exhausting pressure to look like you have it all together online. They talk about how influencer and celebrity life is often just a highlight reel — while the stress, anxiety, health struggles, financial pressure, and emotional burnout stay hidden behind the scenes. From Hollywood and podcasting to trolls, comparison culture, and mental health, this episode is a reminder that comparing your real life to someone else's curated feed can quietly steal your peace. The conversation also turns toward health culture, self-help overload, mold toxicity, supplements, red light therapy, nervous system burnout, chronic stress, autoimmune struggles, and why modern wellness culture can sometimes become counterproductive. Kev shares why he thinks healing may actually come from doing less: more rest, more sunlight, more laughter, more simplicity, and finally listening to what your body is trying to say. Plus: the truth about influencer money, why so many successful people are secretly exhausted, hustle culture vs. rest, healing and emotional resilience, and why joy matters way more than appearances. It's funny, honest, chaotic, thoughtful… and honestly feels like the kind of conversation everyone needs right now.
