(Show Notes) What if addiction isn't the real problem? In this powerful episode of Why Not Me? Embracing Autism and Mental Health Worldwide, Tony Mantor sits down with psychologist, TEDx speaker, and bestselling author Dr. Adi Jaffe to challenge everything we've been taught about addiction, recovery, trauma, and personal transformation. Drawing from both his professional expertise and his own remarkable journey from addiction and prison to becoming a UCLA-trained psychologist, Dr. Jaffe explains why destructive behaviors often begin as attempts to survive emotional pain—not moral failures. Together they discuss: • Why addiction is often a response to trauma, pain, and unmet emotional needs • The powerful role shame plays in keeping people trapped • Why willpower alone rarely creates lasting change • How habits are formed in the brain—and why changing them takes time • The connection between anxiety, depression, addiction, and self-worth • Why healing begins with understanding instead of judgment • The importance of self-compassion during recovery • How changing your mindset can transform your life Whether you struggle with addiction, love someone who does, or simply want to better understand human behavior, this conversation offers practical wisdom, compassion, and hope.

Thomas is joined by Dr. Eric Jaffe, biologist, dinosaur enthusiast, and high school biology teacher, for a conversation that starts with a deceptively simple question: what are biological definitions actually doing? It turns out that biology is far more like history than math, and that difference has enormous consequences for anyone trying to weaponize phrases like "the biological definition of sex." Dr. Jaffe walks through why definitions in inductive sciences are descriptive, not prescriptive, and what that means for species, chromosomes, fungi, LeBron James, and trans people. "Exceptions aren't the exceptions in biology. They are built into what we call biological systems." Plus: Patreon Q&A questions on alien DNA, how new chromosomes evolve, the 97% chimp figure, CRISPR vs. what came before, and Trump's research budget cuts.

What if losing your job isn't the end of your career story, but the beginning of a more intentional one? In this episode, Dean Newlund and Steve Jaffe explore how layoffs can become powerful opportunities for resilience, self-discovery, and reinvention.   In this episode, Dean Newlund and Steve Jaffe discuss: Why layoffs often mirror the stages of grief and emotional recovery The myth of meritocracy and why high performers can still lose their jobs How job loss challenges identity, purpose, and self-worth Building resilience through adversity, failure, and life transitions How to approach career pivots, transferable skills, and industry disruption   Key Takeaways: Layoffs often trigger a grief process that includes denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance, reconstruction, and renewal. Losing a job can force valuable self-reflection about identity, values, priorities, and long-term career direction. Resilience is built through adversity, and setbacks often create the coping skills needed for future success. Letting go of shame and self-blame allows people to move forward more effectively after job loss. Professionals can reduce future career risk by developing transferable skills, adapting to industry shifts, and staying aware of emerging trends.   "Instead of looking backwards, you look forward.” — Steve Jaffe   About Steve Jaffe: Steve Jaffe is the author of The Layoff Journey From Dismissal to Discovery: Navigating the Stages of Grief After Job Loss and a four-time layoff survivor. Drawing on his own experiences and a 25-year career in advertising and marketing, including work on the iconic “What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas” campaign, he helps readers navigate job loss through the stages of grief, rebuild confidence, and move forward with clarity and resilience.

They dive into the intricacies of ABT's performances, the innovations under Jaffe's leadership, and the exciting future of ballet.Reflections on the Spring SeasonSusan Jaffe begins by reflecting on the challenges and triumphs of ABT's spring season. Originally set for mid-April at the Metropolitan Opera House, a shift pushed performances into summer, prompting concerns about audience engagement. Despite these challenges, ABT exceeded attendance expectations, experiencing what Susan coined as “Timothée Chalamet moments” – standing ovations each night. With the support of Executive Director Barry Hughson, the company navigated these changes with finesse, focusing on enriching its artistic offerings while maintaining strong ticket sales.Previewing the Met Season: New Approaches and Old FavoritesAs the discussion shifts to upcoming performances at the Metropolitan Opera House, Susan announces a packed lineup featuring two weeks of "Swan Lake", George Cranko's emotionally rich "Onegin", and a refreshed "Don Quixote" (Don Q). The conversation reveals how adjustments to the season were strategically planned to cater to both New York residents and the influx of summer tourists.Don Quixote Gets a RefreshThe process behind updating "Don Quixote" was intricate, with Susan focusing on tightening storytelling, enhancing choreography, and making selective cuts to maintain audience engagement. Her collaboration with renowned figures such as Susan Jones and forthcoming music director David LaMarche highlights a commitment to retaining the piece's essence while injecting fresh energy.Conclusion: An Invitation to Experience the MagicThe episode closes with an invitation from Susan Jaffe for audiences to experience the magic of ABT's upcoming performances.

In this episode of the Dean's Chat Learning Series, Dr. Johanna Richey welcomes podiatric dermatology expert Dr. Leland Jaffe for an in-depth discussion on diagnostic miscues, biopsy decision-making, and the importance of maintaining a broad differential diagnosis in podiatric medicine. Drawing from his experience teaching dermatology and working extensively in wound care, Dr. Jaffe shares how his threshold for performing biopsies has significantly lowered over the years as he recognized how many serious conditions can masquerade as common foot and ankle pathology.The conversation explores how chronic wounds, nail disorders, inflammatory skin conditions, and even routine “ingrown toenails” can occasionally hide malignancies or autoimmune disease. Dr. Jaffe emphasizes that when a patient fails to improve with appropriate standard-of-care treatment, clinicians must pause and ask, “What am I missing?” rather than simply repeating unsuccessful therapies. Through several compelling clinical examples, including wounds later diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, and autoimmune-mediated lesions, he highlights how biopsy can completely alter a patient's treatment trajectory and, in some cases, save lives.Dr. Jaffe also provides practical insight into biopsy technique selection, discussing when he prefers punch biopsies, shave biopsies, or excisional biopsies depending on the suspected diagnosis. He explains why inflammatory conditions often require full-thickness punch biopsies, while suspected melanomas may warrant more nuanced excisional approaches to ensure accurate staging. Importantly, he reassures clinicians that “some biopsy is better than no biopsy,” encouraging providers not to let uncertainty or fear prevent them from obtaining tissue when something feels atypical.A major theme throughout the episode is collaboration. Dr. Jaffe and Dr. Richey discuss the value of working closely with dermatopathologists, oncologists, dermatologists, and wound care specialists to optimize patient outcomes. They stress that diagnosing a concerning lesion is not the end of the clinician's role, but rather the beginning of a team-based process that benefits both patients and providers.#podiatry #podiatricmedicine #podiatricdermatology#skincancerawarenessmonth #skincancerawareness #skincancer #melanoma #melanomaawareness#PICA #BakoDx

From the author of Work Won't Love You Back, a stirring examination of how collective grief can ignite powerful change. Our era is one of significant and substantial loss, yet we barely have time to acknowledge it. The losses range from the personal grief of a single COVID death to the planetary disaster wrought by climate change, in an age of unraveling hopes and expectations, of dreams curtailed, of aspirations desiccated. This is capitalism's death phase. It has become clear that the cost of wealth creation for a few is enormous destruction for others, for the marginalized and the vulnerable but increasingly for all of us. At the same time, we are denied the means of mourning those futures that are being so brutally curtailed. At such a moment, taking the time to grieve is a political act. Sarah Jaffe shows how the act of public memorialization has become a radical statement, a vibrant response to loss, and a path to imagining a better world. When we are able to grieve well the ones we have lost, the causes they fought for, or the examples they bequeathed us, we are better prepared to fight for a transformed future. Sarah Jaffe is a journalist and labor reporter who writes about work, inequality, and social movements. Her work has appeared in major publications such as The Nation, The Washington Post, and The Guardian. Jaffe has long reported on labor struggles and worker organizing, including movements like Occupy Wall Street and the Fight for $15 campaign. She is also the author of Necessary Trouble and Work Won't Love you Back. She is co-host of the labor podcast Belabored. Her writing focuses on how economic systems shape everyday life and workers' experiences. Learn more about your ad choices.

What if inflammation and autoimmune conditions aren't problems to suppress, but signals that the body is struggling to repair? In this episode, Dr. Jen sits down with Dr. J. Russell Jaffe, a pioneer in integrative medicine, to explore a fundamentally different lens on chronic illness. Drawing from decades of experience in molecular biology and clinical diagnostics, Dr. Jaffe explains why inflammation reflects a “repair deficit,” how chronic stress and elevated cortisol disrupt immune function, and why modern medicine often misses the deeper drivers of disease. The conversation also dives into environmental toxins, emotional trauma, and lifestyle patterns that quietly overwhelm the body, and how returning to simplicity, nature, and mindful living can restore resilience, vitality, and long-term health.Dr. J. Russell Jaffe, MD, PhD, CCN, is a pioneer in integrative medicine with over 40 years of experience in molecular biology and clinical diagnostics. After serving on the senior staff of the NIH and becoming board-certified in Clinical and Chemical Pathology, he shifted his focus toward root-cause, patient-centered care. As the founder of PERQUE Integrative Health and ELISA/ACT Biotechnologies, Dr. Jaffe has authored nearly 100 scientific articles and developed predictive biomarkers to identify underlying contributors to chronic illness. He is widely recognized for his philosophy of “Nature's pHarmacy,” emphasizing alkaline nutrition, immune repair, and sustainable wellness.Website: https://www.drrusselljaffe.comPERQUE Integrative Health: https://www.perque.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrRussellJaffeYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DrRussellJaffePODCAST: Thank you for listening please subscribe and share!

Send us Fan MailHi Everyone, Hope this finds you grounded and doing well in this chaotic time.In this episode, I speak with Vancouver lawyer, Paul Jaffe. Paul has been in practice for decades and offers great insight into the justice system in Canada. During Covid, he went up against BC Medical Officer, Bonnie Henry,  when pubs could be open but not churches. He isn't afraid to speak his mind on a variety of other subjects such as the horrific ostrich cull or Jim Heller's defamation lawsuit for simply saying potential mass graves.Paul has been the head commissioner at the NCI, the National Citizen's Inquiry, several times now, asking pertinent questions to our well-being. I encourage you to check out this most extraordinary group, a citizen-led and citizen-funded effort that began first by examining Canada's response to COVID-19, and has gone on to other important topics that deeply affect us personally and as Canadians. Kelowna was the last city to hold this ongoing, multi-city event asking "Are Farmers Safe in Canada?" I spoke as an expert witness Edmonton with the theme "Are Children Safe in Canada?" on The Flexner Report of 1910 when it was in Edmonton. It is a great eyeopener of how people have experienced the traumas of Covid, the ostrich cull, human trafficking, farmer's injustices and so on.Their website is nationalcitizensinquiry.org. MY I:I WORK: (individual)I am now accepting new patients. I have a fifteen minute complimentary consultation to see if we are a match. I charge $150 per half hour. If you are wanting Classical Homeopathy that would take 3- half hours if you are a new patient.

It covers telling your story by writing, and performing (optional) leading to a radio/podcast show or on stage. We will allow each person's story to come alive in an honest and safe way. It's also really fun once we move past the fear and trepidation.

In March 2025, the U.S. Department of Education began investigating dozens of colleges - including Harvard and Columbia - for possible violations of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act for their alleged failure to protect Jewish students from harassment and discrimination on campus. The administration threatened to withhold federal funding and many colleges struck deals to preserve their funding. Critics charged the administration with heavy-handed enforcement tactics that burdened academic freedom and free speech on campus. Join our panel of experts as they explore how these enforcement efforts have played out after one year and what we may expect in the future. Featuring: Prof. David D. Cole, Hon. George J.

Vladimir Jaffe is owner of Palace Imports and a board member of Israel Justice Organization. Vladimir Jaffe is a former Soviet citizen with a master's degree in chemical engineering. In the USSR, he was active in Jewish circles, dissident movements, and international media—at significant personal risk—and was interrogated at KGB headquarters in 1985. He emigrated to the United States in 1988 at the age of 29 and is now a successful American entrepreneur. Over the years, a new generation of Americans are favoring socialism with an awe of communism over capitalism. According to a published report: A recent Cato/YouGov survey conducted in March asked 2,000 American adults a range of questions about U.S. fiscal policy. The survey found that 62 percent of adults under age 30 expressed a favorable view of socialism, while just 38 percent held an unfavorable view. When asked, “Do you have a favorable or unfavorable view of Communism?”, 34 percent of respondents aged 18–29 answered “favorable,” with 66 percent answering “unfavorable.” Only 14 percent of total respondents held a favorable view of communism. Vladimir Jaffe is the owner of Palace Imports, a company specializing in solid wood furniture sourced from Africa, Europe, South America, and Mexico, sold online through retailers such as Macy's, Wayfair, Walmart, Bed Bath & Beyond and Overstock and others. Since becoming a U.S. citizen in 1993, Vladimir has remained politically active and is deeply involved in supporting Jewish organizations and initiatives. He is a board member of the Israel Justice Organization and a dedicated supporter of America's conservative movement and the vision articulated by President Donald Trump in advancing freedom and reforms based on the rule of law.

In Work Won't Love You Back: How Devotion to Our Jobs Keeps Us Exploited, Exhausted, and Alone (Bold Type Books, 2021), Sarah Jaffe argues that modern culture encourages workers to see their jobs as a “labor of love.” This idea tells people that passion and dedication should motivate them more than pay or working conditions. Jaffe shows that this belief often allows employers to justify low wages, long hours, and poor treatment. Through stories of workers across many fields, such as teachers, domestic workers, nonprofit employees, artists, athletes, and tech workers, the book demonstrates how devotion to work is used to normalize exploitation. Jaffe calls for a reevaluation of the relationship between work, identity, and personal fulfillment, suggesting that workers should organize collectively and demand fair compensation and conditions instead of relying on passion alone. Sarah Jaffe is a journalist and labor reporter who writes about work, inequality, and social movements. Her work has appeared in major publications such as The Nation, The Washington Post, and The Guardian. Jaffe has long reported on labor struggles and worker organizing, including movements like Occupy Wall Street and the Fight for $15 campaign. She is also the author of Necessary Trouble and most recently From the Ashes: Grief and Revolution in A World on Fire. She is co-host of the labor podcast Belabored. Her writing focuses on how economic systems shape everyday life and workers' experiences.

Send us Fan MailWhat does recovery actually mean? If you've ever measured your sobriety by days and wondered if there was more to it than that, this episode is for you.Matt sits down with Dr. Adi Jaffe — psychologist, neuroscientist, UCLA researcher, and author of The Abstinence Myth and Unhooked — for one of the most honest and wide-ranging conversations Sober Friends has ever had. Dr. Jaffe went from meth-addicted drug dealer with nine felonies to earning his PhD and building one of the most forward-thinking recovery programs available today. He knows what it feels like to be on both sides of this.This episode challenges some assumptions — including a few of Matt's own. They dig into why black-and-white thinking keeps people stuck, why shame is more dangerous than the substance itself, why the label "alcoholic" helps some people and hurts others, and why stopping drinking is not the same thing as getting better. They also find more common ground between Dr. Jaffe's approach and AA than you might expect.Whether you're in AA, tried AA and it didn't stick, or are just trying to figure out what recovery looks like for you — this one is worth your time.Find Dr. Adi Jaffe: Website: https://www.adijaffe.com The Abstinence Myth: http://www.theabstinencemyth.com Unhooked: https://www.readunhooked.com IGNTD Recovery Program: https://www.igntd.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dradijaffe Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dradijaffe LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dradijaffeFind Sober Friends: Website: https://www.soberfriendspod.com Email: matt@soberfriendspod.comSupport the show

750 layoffs a day. No, that's not a typo — and it's not slowing down.Brett sits down with Steve Jaffe, marketing veteran and author of The Layoff Journey: From Dismissal to Discovery, to talk about what most career books completely skip: the emotional and psychological toll of losing a job — and why processing that first is the key to what comes next.Steve was laid off four times over a 30-year career. His first layoff took him years to recover from. His last one in 2023? Water off a duck's back. The difference? He finally understood what he was actually experiencing: grief.This one is for anyone who's been laid off, is worried about being laid off, or is watching colleagues get cut and wondering when it's their turn.In this episode:Why January 2026 had the highest single-month layoffs since 2009 — and why the job market isn't bouncing backHow layoffs became a business strategy instead of a last resort (and what that means for your career security)The stages of grief that apply to job loss — and why skipping them is costing people months of their job searchWhy the "myth of meritocracy" is one of the most dangerous things to believe in corporateThe identity crisis that hits when your job title is your identity — and how to separate the twoWhat Gen Z is getting right about corporate that older generations sacrificedSteve's pivot from laid-off marketing exec to published author — without a Plan B in place firstWhy having a side hustle isn't just a trend — it's now a survival strategyAbout Steve JaffeSteve spent 30 years in marketing and advertising — from West Coast ad agencies to in-house brand roles, including work on the iconic What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas campaign. After being laid off four times, he channeled those 10,000 hours of experience into his book, The Layoff Journey: From Dismissal to Discovery — a practical, grief-informed guide to navigating job loss without losing yourself in the process.Resources mentioned:

Layoffs are back in the headlines. Job postings are down. Hiring cycles are longer. What does that mean for MBA students and other professionals navigating today's market? In this episode, I speak with Steve Jaffe, author of The Layoff Journey: From Dismissal to Discovery. Drawing on his experience of four layoffs across a 25-year marketing career, Steve maps job loss—and prolonged job search—to the seven stages of grief. This conversation is both practical and deeply human. You'll learn: Why career disruptions are emotional, not just logistical — and how naming the grief process reduces shame. How to separate your identity from your job title before you're forced to. Why networking before you need it is the ultimate resilience strategy in a market shaped by AI screening and hidden job opportunities. How hope and small daily wins compound over time, especially during a long job search. Whether you've been laid off, are facing a challenging search, or simply want to future-proof your career, this episode offers a grounded framework for building resilience that lasts.

A jury in NY awarded $2 million to Fox Varian after jurors found that psychologist Kenneth Einhorn and surgeon Simon Chin committed medical malpractice by performing a double mastectomy on Varian when she was only 16. Varian told the jury she was “disfigured for life.” Now 22, Varian detransitioned and “no longer thinks of herself as a male” but suffers from permanent effects of the irreversible surgery that was performed by physicians “failing to follow proper standards.” Her case is the first detrans lawsuit to go to trial and win in the United States – one of dozens of other cases being fought nationwide.

In today's conversation, we connect with Dr. Adi Jaffe, a #1 best-selling author and nationally recognized expert on transformation and communication – especially in times of deep crisis. As the author of groundbreaking works like The Abstinence Myth and Unhooked: Free Yourself from Addiction Forever, Dr. Jaffe's mission is both simple and radical: to help people overcome addiction and life challenges without shame, judgment, or rigid rules… Dr. Jaffe's work spans mental health, addiction, relationships, and professional identity, supporting individuals navigating personal, career, and emotional crises. He spent nearly a decade as a lecturer in UCLA's Psychology Department and served as Executive Director and Co-Founder of one of the country's most progressive mental health treatment centers before founding IGNTD. Through IGNTD, Dr. Jaffe is reshaping how we understand and address mental health by helping people move beyond shame, reconnect with purpose and joy, and build lives rooted in fulfillment — for themselves and those around them. This discussion outlines: How anxiety and mental health challenges have evolved in recent years. The psychological impact of technology on modern life. How to navigate conflict in healthier, more constructive ways, and how substances can interfere with that process. The importance of reframing the conventional ideals of addiction.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Steve Jaffe, author of The Layoff Journey: From Dismissal to Discovery. Steve has been laid off four times over the course of his career, and those experiences shaped a thoughtful, practical framework for navigating the emotional and professional aftermath of job loss. Andy and Steve explore why layoffs feel so personal even when we are told they are not, how identity often gets tangled up with job titles, and why the emotional response to a layoff closely mirrors the stages of grief. Steve explains why those stages are not linear, what denial, pain, and negotiation really look like in practice, and why trying to rush straight to acceptance can backfire. You will also hear practical advice for leaders who must conduct layoffs, as well as guidance for professionals who worry they might be laid off in the future. From preserving dignity in difficult conversations to preparing financially, emotionally, and professionally before uncertainty hits, this discussion offers insight for both sides of the table. If you are navigating uncertainty, supporting others through change, or simply want to be better prepared for whatever comes next, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "I wanted to give people a roadmap to process their layoff and the grief of their layoff in months rather than years." "One of the things that makes losing a job difficult is we tie our identity up in what we do." "And then in that period, before you've landed your next job, you're in this messy middle of Who am I?" "Define yourself not by what you do, but by who you are and what you bring to the table." "I've seen people be named Employee of the Year in January, and by June they're getting laid off." "Layoffs don't measure your worth. They measure a company's priorities." "The stages of grief are not linear. You can feel all of them in one day." "Your job title is not who you are." "Acceptance can become a way to skip discomfort instead of dealing with loss." "If you don't process the grief, it shows up later as baggage." "Dignity matters in the first minutes of a layoff conversation." "You want to build your network before you need it." "The person you were before a layoff will not be the same person after."

This episode is brought to you by Strong Coffee Company, Supp Co, and WHOOP. In this episode of Ever Forward Radio, psychologist and addiction expert Dr. Adi Jaffe reframes addiction, compulsive behavior, and self-sabotage as intelligent coping strategies rather than personal failures. He explains why labeling people as "addicts" creates shame and traps identity, how early childhood and even preverbal experiences shape adult behavior, and why most habits don't change through awareness alone. Dr. Jaffe introduces his SPARROW Behavioral Loop—stimulus, perception, activation, response, outcome—to show how emotions and bodily sensations, not events themselves, drive behavior. Together, they explore identity, responsibility without blame, growth mindset, emotional regulation, stoicism, belief systems, and why sustainable change comes from reshaping perception and nervous system responses rather than fighting behaviors directly. This conversation offers a compassionate, practical framework for breaking patterns and moving forward—without shame.

In this conversation, we dive deep into why the universe may be fundamentally, intrinsically random. Whether inflation on life support, the truth behind the Hubble tension, and whether cosmology is approaching the event horizon, limits beyond which humans can never know. Today we're joined by one of the architects of modern cosmological inference, Professor Andrew Jaffee, author of a new book called The Random Universe that argues that every observation in science is shaped by the models we bring to it, biases and all. KEY TAKEAWAYS 00:00–01:13 — Science and life rely on building models. 01:13–03:35 — Models of people and reality are often wrong and revised. 04:04–06:01 — Observation depends on prior theories. 06:01–07:32 — Models can't be escaped, only improved. 07:32–08:57 — No single scientific method exists. 08:57–11:25 — Science uses induction, not pure proof. 11:25–13:22 — Induction isn't certain, only probabilistic. 13:22–15:36 — Induction works because nature is regular. 17:44–19:08 — Big Bang emerges from well-tested models. 19:08–21:15 — Current cosmology is stressed, not broken. 29:19–30:36 — Probability gives meaning to models. 39:45–41:11 — Randomness often reflects limited knowledge. 43:46–45:00 — Quantum physics is fundamentally probabilistic. 49:09–50:04 — Inflation awaits decisive observational tests. - Additional resources: Get My NEW Book: Focus Like a Nobel Prize Winner: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FN8DH6SX?ref_=pe_93986420_775043100 Please join my mailing list here
