Podcasts about Jameela

Comedian and writer Jessi Klein (Big Mouth, Inside Amy Schumer, I'll Show Myself Out) and comedian Trae Crowder (The Liberal Redneck Manifesto, Trash Daddy) join Jameela Jamil to unpack a lifetime of exquisitely timed social misfires, celebrity encounters gone wrong, and the unique horror of realizing you may have accidentally discouraged a bunch of people who later became extremely famous.Jessi confesses to being Clare Danes' first hater, gently warning a pre-My So-Called Life middle schooler that acting might not be a practical career choice, then doubling down years later by encouraging Mark Ronson to stay in college instead of becoming a DJ. Things only escalate from there, including an Ethan Hawke missed connection that still haunts her soul.Trae shares his own catalogue of humiliation, from confidently announcing “I was on Bill Maher” to Tim Robbins with no follow-up, to screaming his friend GABE's name across a room full of A-list celebrities, to destroying his kids' new drone in front of an elderly father-in-law who immediately climbs a tree to retrieve it while silently judging him.Along the way, Jameela recounts freezing into a full-body malfunction while meeting Whitney Cummings, and why sometimes the worst part of a sympathetic interaction is knowing you'll definitely have to see that person again.No villains. No winners. Just deeply relatable micro-humiliations, permanent psychic damage, and the long tail of regret.Jessi Klein's book I'll Show Myself Out is available now, and she co-hosts the podcast Here to Make Friends.Trae Crowder's stand-up special Trash Daddy is streaming on YouTube, and his books The Liberal Redneck Manifesto and Round Here and Over Yonder are out now.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Jameela Jamil is back for a killer crossover! We were recently guests on her show Wrongs Turns, where we told embarrassing stories from our past, and now Jameela joins us to further delve into her romantic and therapeutic life! Last time she was on, LA was burning, and we spent the majority of the conversation looking out the window just in case things got inferno-y. But the fires are over and everything in the world is good now. Ahem. Anyway, we get into it with Jameela about the wide gulf between her public persona and how she feels inside about herself. We talk meeting her bf James Blake, the songs he writes about her and again, how his version of her clashes with her own self-image. We talk about not wanting to be perceived and how a nice paycheck and a little dissociation can overcome those feelings, and of course, we talk dental hygiene! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!

Comedians Steph Tolev (Hacks, Filth Queen on Netflix) and Frankie Quiñones (This Fool on Hulu, What We Do in the Shadows) join Jameela Jamil for a tour through humiliation, betrayal, and stories that should never be told in public but absolutely must be.Steph recounts a series of escalating disasters, including waking up extremely drunk in a basement during a hookup gone wrong, a teenage escape attempt that leaves her hanging from a fence “like a muppet” in front of thousands of witnesses, and a reminder that bad clothing choices can ruin your life. Frankie shares his own experiences with public embarrassment and the particular horror of bombing onstage in front of the worst possible audiences.Along the way, Jameela explains why stand-up comedy is the true front line of entertainment, relives the uniquely painful betrayal of a friend refusing to give you a ride home (with celebrity consequences), and tells the story of her own dog jumping into Conan O'Brien's pool at exactly the wrong moment.No lessons learned. No dignity recovered. Just lifelong cringe, lovingly unpacked.Steph Tolev's Netflix special Filth Queen is streaming now, and you can follow her on tour worldwide.

Comedians Jessimae Peluso (Girl Code, Sharp Tongue, Dying Laughing podcast) and Justin Martindale (Just Sayin' podcast, Gay Bash) join Jameela Jamil for a Wrong Turns episode that escalates from bad dates into full survival mode.Jessimae shares how mistaking a walking red flag for romance led to “dating the DSM-5,” escalating behavior, and ultimately pursuing a restraining order when things turned genuinely frightening. Justin recounts a friendship-ending humiliation involving accusations that made no sense, a brutal “your dad's a 4” assessment, and the unforgettable concept of Midwest Turtle People.Together, they unpack why behavior that's “normally romantic” can become alarming fast, how charm can disguise danger, and why sometimes the only correct response is calling on a trusted friend to go "full-towel, nuts out, in a bush".No lessons. No silver linings. Just two unforgettable Wrong Turns and one very palpable vibe.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

When it comes to your pet's health, there is no word more terrifying than "cancer." The immediate reaction is often fear, followed by a difficult question: "I wouldn't put myself through chemo, so why would I put my dog through it?"In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Rance Gamblin, a veterinary oncologist formerly at Metropolitan Veterinary Hospital and now professor at Mississippi State College of Veterinary Medicine with 24+ years of experience and a calming presence that could soothe even the most "OCD" pet parent (just ask Alice!). Dr. Gamblin helps us navigate the emotional and medical complexities of a cancer diagnosis, explaining why veterinary oncology is often far more compassionate and focused on quality of life than human medicine.In this episode, we discuss:- The "Quality of Life" Philosophy: Why the goals of pet oncology differ from human oncology—focusing on making pets feel better for longer, rather than "curing at any cost."- Common Culprits: A look at the most frequent cancers Dr. Gamblin treats, including Lymphoma, Mast Cell Tumors, and Osteosarcoma.- The Truth About Side Effects: Do dogs lose their hair? Dr. Gamblin shares the reality of how pets handle chemotherapy (hint: there's a lot more tail-wagging involved than you'd think).- Treatment Innovations: Insights into the Yale vaccine study and the fascinating science behind the Melanoma vaccine. -Proactive Pet Parenting: Why Dr. Gamblin's biggest pet peeve is the "let's just watch it" approach, and why your pet's breath or a quick rectal exam could be a lifesaver.- Knowing When It's Time: A heart-to-heart on the "Big Four" indicators of quality of life and how to navigate the toughest decision a pet owner can make.Dr. Rance Gamblin earned his BS in Biology from Mississippi State and completed his residency in Oncology and Hematology at The Ohio State University. For over two decades, he has been a pillar of the veterinary community at Metropolitan Veterinary Hospital, known for his expertise, his steady hand, and an accent you'll just have to hear for yourself to guess where he's from! He is currently a professor at Mississippi State College of Veterinary Medicine.--What started during the COVID-19 lockdown with one baby gorilla at the Cleveland Zoo has grown into a channel loved by animal fans around the world.

Comedians and podcasters Naomi Ekperigin (Broad City, Hacks, Mythic Quest) and Andy Beckerman (The Pete Holmes Show, Cedric's Barber Battle, Couples Therapy) join Jameela Jamil for a messy dive into marriage superstitions, chaos goblins, and a truly staggering collection of micro-humiliations.Naomi relives the nightmare of meeting Andy's parents for the first time, only to end up hospitalized within hours, delivering her full medical history four months into a relationship that somehow survived. Andy shares a seventh-grade “prank” so ill-conceived it nearly caused a multi-parent emergency, plus the existential horror of being forced into a talent show with no talent and no escape.Along the way, Jameela explains her theory that marriage alerts the universe to send dangerously attractive temptations, recounts an accidental nude incident at an accidental visit to a Greek weight-loss spa, and confirms once and for all that some embarrassment permanently rewires your DNA.No silver linings.

This episode is a re-release of a powerful and eye-opening conversation with Bob Bryant, co-founder of Mission K9 Rescue.This organization is dedicated to saving, reuniting, rehoming, rehabilitating, and repairing military working dogs (MWDs), contract working dogs (CWDs), and police canines who have completed their service.

Content Warning: This conversation contains themes of disordered eating and child abuseJameela Jamil is among the most beautiful public figures who hold some of the strongest anti-beauty sentiments. She was scouted for television while walking down the street and later hired to host a series on Channel 4. As she shares in the episode, this role reinforced many of the harmful patriarchal standards about women's beauty and bodies that she learned as a child. Jameela shares that she didn't feel beautiful growing up, and despite her early beauty icons being voluptuous women of color, she held herself to an unnatural standard of thinness and battled anorexia to achieve it. Her ascent into the public eye only exacerbated her struggles with her weight. By her late twenties, she began to question why she was being held to such rigid expectations by fashion media execs who couldn't meet them; ultimately, she decided to fight back.Since then, Jameela has made a name for herself as an actress, public figure, and outspoken advocate for women's rights. During our conversation, we discussed personal growth and why women must meet their own high standards, whether men like it or not, including her partner. Jameela doesn't hold back when it comes to ageism in fashion and politics, and the detrimental impact of AI on our ability to distinguish reality from virtual reality. We talk about her time on The Good Place and how Ted Danson helped make her debut performance so strong. Jameela lays out why she believes public figures have a role in advocating for transparency in costs and recovery of major cosmetic procedures. She also makes it clear that she is comfortable learning and growing publicly, so long as she leads with care and facts.

What happens when you rush your pet to the emergency room, the doctor recommends life-saving treatment, and the cost is more than you can handle at the moment? For many families, this is one of the most heartbreaking situations in pet ownership. In this episode of Speaking of Pets, Dr. Alice and Janet sit down with Jonathan Wainberg from CareCredit to talk about practical, real-life financial solutions for unexpected and even chronic veterinary expenses.Jonathan explains how CareCredit works behind the scenes—from fast approvals and deferred-interest payment plans to why it's accepted at over 27,000 veterinary practices nationwide. We dive into the kinds of situations CareCredit is used for, including emergency surgeries, chronic conditions like Cushing's disease and heart disease, dentals, diagnostics such as CT scans and MRIs, medications, and even some boarding and grooming services.You'll also meet Jonathan's 15½-year-old dog, Maddie, whose ongoing health needs highlight why financial flexibility matters for senior pets.

You asked - so we answered… Jameela Jamil is back on the podcast. Jameela is an actor and activist - she's unapologetic and she's not afraid of being disliked. There are very few people in Hollywood who speak out so openly, loudly and passionately about social justice, so we spoke to Jameela about why she feels equipped and compelled to speak out, and why others may not do the same… even when they know they should. We also spoke to Jameela about the death of the body positivity movement, the Ozempic Era and her view on celebrities glamourising the return of ultra-thinness as the mainstream beauty ideal. Be prepared to get angry, impassioned and ready to fight back...

Comedy powerhouses, Aparna Nancherla (BoJack Horseman, Corporate, Mythic Quest) and Eliza Skinner (The Late Late Show with James Corden, Drop the Mic, and Earth to Ned), join Jameela for a perfect storm of humiliation, soft chaos, and stories that instantly make you feel better about your own life choices.Aparna kicks things off with a micro humiliation involving an aggressively friendly date, a forced smile, and the kind of social panic only she could navigate with total deadpan grace. Later, she unpacks a Big Wrong Turn that somehow manages to include a disappearing audience, a disappearing sense of self, and a disappearing will to continue. We've all been there.Eliza brings her own signature spiral, including the world's worst party choice, a Disney meltdown, and one of the most impressively committed social misreads we've heard on this show. Together, she and Aparna form a tag-team of comedic self-exposure that warms the soul and singes the eyebrows.Plus, Jameela reads a Misery Loves Company submission that proves sometimes the only way out is to laugh harder than you want to cry.Come for the comedy, stay for the solidarity. If you've ever said “I'm really honest, I just like to tell it how it is,” then listen to hear why we're swiping left on you.Aparna Nancherla has her very first hour-long standup comedy special, HOPEFUL POTATO, premiering December 15th on streaming service Dropout as part of its “Dropout Presents” series.

We're back with Vanessa Petrosky, founder of Remy's Pet Recovery, for a powerful Take 2 of one of our most loved episodes — all about what really happens when a dog goes missing and how one small nonprofit in Northeast Ohio is quietly saving lives.Vanessa walks us through her current tough case, Cooper the border collie, and explains why well-meaning people chasing, calling, and “trying to help” actually make things worse. She breaks down what to do (and absolutely NOT do) the moment your dog goes missing, why lost dogs go into survival mode, and how she uses traps, cameras, maps, and community cooperation to safely bring terrified dogs home.We also dig into:- Why you should never post live sightings with exact locations on social media- How to use flyers, mapping, and food stations the right way- Why newly adopted dogs must decompress before walks, stores, and groomers- Martingale collars, slip leads, microchips, GPS collars & keeping escape artists safe- Working with (and sometimes around) well-intended police and neighbors- The emotional story of Mira, a dog-fighting survivor who learned how to be loved- Vanessa's biggest pet peeve: “He always comes back… until he doesn't.”You'll also hear how Remy's is funded, how their annual fundraiser keeps them going, and why Vanessa's car looks like a cross between a rescue truck and a survival kit.If you love dogs, foster, adopt, or just want to be the person who actually helps instead of accidentally hurting, this episode is a must-listen.

This is episode 78. Today Charlotte, living on Darug Country and a mum of 4 shares her amazing birth stories. This is a super special episode because Charlotte is probably one of the few women in Australia in recent times who has been supported by private midwives to birth her twins at home. Prior to her twins being born at home, she also had an accidental homebirth. She shares her journey to finding homebirth, her 3 pregnancies and the emotional journey of choosing something that she felt was safest and best for her and her twins, even when that may have made others uncomfortable. It's a fantastic episode and demonstrates true woman centred care. **Charlotte also wanted to share that her sharing her story of birthing her twins at home doesn't mean she believes everyone should. She wishes that more people knew they could hire private midwives for pre and post natal care so that women can have continuity of care and fill the gaps a lot of hospitals systems have.**I hope you'll also forgive my error in my audio quality for this episode and hope it doesn't detract from Charlotte's story sharing. Support the showReach out: www.emdrwithelsie.com.au @birthingathome_apodcast@emdr_with_elsie (EMDR info) birthingathome.apodcast@gmail.com emdrwithelsie@gmail.com

Lake relives the day she introduced herself to Brad Pitt in a way that could not have landed worse, along with the colonoscopy story that still makes her sweat with embarrassment.Together they unravel convertible rage spirals, postpartum clothing fails, and the universal effort to look put together while feeling anything but.Catch Mary Elizabeth Ellis in the Netflix series Man on the Inside and Lake Bell in The Chair Company on HBO Max.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Veterinarian Dr. Kim Stewart, DVM joins us to share how she and her Labrador Retriever, Seamus, train and deploy as a human remains detection (HRD) K9 team—what it takes to certify, stay safe in the field, and work seamlessly with law enforcement from local sheriffs to the FBI and Texas Rangers.You'll hear how Seamus' fitness plan (pool sprints, core “planks,” balance work, laser therapy) keeps him mission-ready; why chain of command matters in disasters; and how teams are vetted on orienteering, clue awareness, ICS, and the wilderness pack test. Dr. Stewart breaks down screening traits for great SAR dogs (toy drive, hunt drive, nerve strength, neutrality), what goes in a handler's pack, and why overheating is the #1 risk for working dogs.Dr. Stewart also recounts a difficult but pivotal case Seamus helped solve, and we discuss the ethics around emotional support animal misuse—not to punish pets, but to protect true service teams and public safety.What you'll learn- How HRD dogs are trained to alert without disturbing crime scenes- The realities of multi-agency searches, from wilderness to water hazards- The fitness, recovery, and injury-prevention routines that keep K9s working longer- Quick tests to spot potential SAR talent in young dogs- Why documentation (GPS, records) matters—right up to the courtroom- A vet's take on ESA vs. service dog rules and real-world impactsChapter guide0:00 Re-release intro & meet Seamus2:10 Why SAR (vs. agility/dock diving) & joining a team4:45 Certifications: NASAR, ICS, swift-water awareness7:00 HRD training: pairing odor → active alert (bark & hold)9:20 Mentorship, screening dogs, “toy drive” & hunt tests20:40 Handler pack, K9 first aid, heat risk & water logistics⚠️ 23:55 Field realities & processing tough scenes24:58 Case study: Seamus' courtroom-validated find 27:50 Fitness/fuel: Pro Plan Sport, produce snacks, conditioning28:55 Pet peeve: ESA misuse & why it harms access for true service teams31:20 Longevity, retirement, and what's next for SeamusWhy we're re-releasing: New listeners keep asking how SAR dogs really work—this conversation remains one of our clearest, most practical deep dives.Subscribe, rate, and hug your dogs for us.

Veterinary toxicologist Dr. Renee Schmid returns to co-host with Alice and breaks down the surprising ways everyday supplements, human medications, gummies, and topicals can put pets at risk—especially during the holidays when visitors (and their Ziploc pill bags!) roll in. From multivitamins and “grass saver” methionine to tryptophan chews, alpha-lipoic acid, minoxidil, diclofenac creams, estrogen gels, 5-FU topical creams, tea tree oil, and even chewable Apoquel around cats, Dr. Schmid explains what's dangerous, why, and what to do before panic takes over. Plus: practical storage hacks, vet-approved brands vs. online counterfeits, and the one line you should say to every house guest.Dr. Renee Schmid is the Veterinary Medical Director and Senior Toxicologist at Pet Poison Helpline.

Comedians Ian Fidance (Bein' Ian with Jordan podcast, Wild, Happy and Free special) and Nathan Macintosh (Tonight Show, Down with Tech special) bring two of the most chaotic Wrong Turns we've ever had: a near–loss of virginity on 9/11, a $600 phone sex bill, getting banned from a friend's house for porn searches, coke-fueled job interviews, and the childhood moment that ended in a full-blown piss emergency in class.Jameela tries to referee as Ian defends the Spice Channel “squiggle” era and Nathan relives the four-second first time, the broken bed frame, and the dog watching from the corner. There's also soaking, psychics, frozen Haagen-Dazs theft, and a surprisingly heartfelt debate on whether shame makes you funnier or just stranger.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

What if you could know—before you ever give a pill—whether your dog or cat is likely to have a bad reaction? In this episode, Dr. Alice and Janet sit down with Dr. Katrina Mealey, Associate Dean for Research at Washington State University's College of Veterinary Medicine, NIH-funded researcher, and Inventor of the Year for her groundbreaking genetic test that flags pets at risk for serious adverse drug reactions.Dr. Mealey explains the science in plain English: a natural “gatekeeper” protein called P-glycoprotein (coded by the MDR1 gene) protects the brain and body by pumping out potentially toxic compounds. When a pet carries certain MDR1 mutations, many common medications—prescription and OTC—can reach dangerous levels. We cover how the cheek-swab test works, how to get it for your pet, which breeds are most affected, why dosage matters so much, and how new vet-friendly tools help tailor safer treatments.In this episode:- MDR1 101: What P-glycoprotein does and why it's the body's drug “gatekeeper.”- Who's at risk: Collies (~75%), Australian & English Shepherds (~50%), plus surprises like Boxers, Huskies, and even the occasional Golden—plus the feline version discovered in 2015.- Real-world reactions: From anti-diarrheals and chemo agents to certain flea preventives—how problems present and what vets should watch for.- Testing made easy: Simple cheek swab or blood test; results emailed to you and your vet.- Dosing guidance: Meet MDR1Caddie (dogs) and WhisPurr (cats)—information that suggests dose adjustments based on whether a pet has one or two copies of the mutation.- Myth-busting ivermectin: Why tiny monthly heartworm doses are different from mange/cancer “DIY” dosing—and why self-medicating is dangerous.- Take-home for pet parents: Bring MDR1 status up with your vet before surgeries, chemo, dermatology meds, new preventives, or simple OTC medications like Immodium.About our guestDr. Katrina Mealey is a veterinarian, pharmacist, researcher, and author (editor of Pharmacotherapeutics for Veterinary Dispensing). Her lab identified the MDR1 mutation in dogs and later in cats, and continues to map which drugs interact with P-glycoprotein so veterinarians can treat more safely.https://vetmed.wsu.edu/our-team/wsu-profile/kmealey/Resources & links- MDR1 genetic test: Link in show notes to order a cheek-swab kit for dogs or cats.- Drug interaction updates: Ongoing lists and guidance are available via the testing program (see show notes).- Dose-adjustment information: MDR1Caddie (dogs) and WhisPurr(cats).- Talk to your veterinarian before starting, stopping, or changing any medication.--What started during the COVID-19 lockdown with one baby gorilla at the Cleveland Zoo has grown into a channel loved by animal fans around the world.

What exactly is a “raw diet,” and how do you make it safely? Host Dr. Alice Jeromin welcomes Dr. Susan Wynn, DVM, DACVIM (Nutrition)—Senior Director of Scientific Affairs at Nature's Variety/Instinct and former president of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association—along with JC Cash, CVT. They break down homemade vs. commercial raw diets, high-pressure pasteurization (HPP), supplier quality, SQF certification, and the research behind minimally processed pet food. We dig into microbiome findings, metabolomics (what it is and why it matters), process-induced toxins (like AGEs), transitioning from kibble, costs, toppers, and the truth about “picky eaters.” We also cover feline feeding quirks, dental health myths, and practical safety tips for pet parents.In This Episode- What “raw” really means today—homemade vs. commercial, and why that distinction matters- How Instinct approaches safety: vetted suppliers, HPP, test-and-hold, and SQF certification- Science check: microbiome, metabolomics, and why minimally processed can shift health markers- Process-induced toxins (AGES, acrylamides) and where heat processing fits in- Balanced diets 101: why “raw liver only” (or chicken-and-pasta!) isn't complete- Transitioning safely: step-wise switchovers, probiotics, and topper strategies for big-dog budgets- Cats! Palate development, why free-choice dry backfires, and hydration from raw/canned- Dental health: kibble vs. functional dental diets, bones, and risks to avoid- Picky vs. overweight: how feeding habits (and treats) drive confusionKey Takeaways- Commercial raw ≠ homemade raw; safety and balance depend on process and formulation.- Properly made raw diets can be complete, balanced, and tested—and show promising health signals.- Even 25% raw as a topper may confer benefits; meet owners where they are.- Treats should stay under 10% of daily calories; measure meals, don't free-feed cats.- Transition slowly (25% steps) and consider probiotics for sensitive pets.https://instinctpetfood.com/Dr. Susan Wynn, DVM, DACVIM (Nutrition) — Senior Director of Scientific Affairs, Nature's Variety/Instinct; long-time clinician and researcher in integrative nutrition.JC Cash, CVT — Educator and industry liaison focused on raw diet safety and veterinary outreach.--What started during the COVID-19 lockdown with one baby gorilla at the Cleveland Zoo has grown into a channel loved by animal fans around the world.

Dr. Jennifer Larsen is a board-certified veterinary nutritionist with a BS/MS in Animal Science, DVM, and PhD in Nutritional Biology from UC Davis. She is a lecturer, researcher, and formulator of specific clinical diets for complex cases.When pet food aisles feel like a maze of “premium,” “natural,” “human-grade,” and “wolf diet” terms, what actually matters for your dog or cat? In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Jennifer Larsen—board-certified veterinary nutritionist (U.C. Davis)—to cut through the hype. From kibble vs. fresh and “grain-free” claims to raw and all-meat feeding, Dr. Larsen explains what's marketing, what's regulation, and what's truly nutritional. We also dig into transitioning diets safely, why fiber is a quiet MVP, how to store kibble the right way, and the ethics and realities of pet weight loss. Plus: the “health halo” effect, AAFCO feeding trials (what they are and aren't), and why respecting animals as dogs and cats—not “fur babies”—actually helps us care for them better.Veterinary Partner - VINhttps://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&catId=102896&id=8207104--What started during the COVID-19 lockdown with one baby gorilla at the Cleveland Zoo has grown into a channel loved by animal fans around the world.

As fall brings leaf piles and hidden tick dangers, Alice revisits this powerful conversation with Nicole Bell of Galaxy Diagnostics to highlight the rising risk of Lyme and other tick-borne illnesses—especially when misdiagnosed as mental health or neurological decline. This updated episode includes new insights on testing, advocacy, and how early awareness can save both human and pet lives.In this powerful episode, we sit down with Nicole, whose family was forever changed by a hidden battle with tick-borne illness—specifically, Lyme disease, and its devastating neurological effects. What began as subtle mood changes and anxiety in her husband slowly escalated into cognitive decline, misdiagnosis, and a desperate search for answers within a fragmented healthcare system.Nicole courageously shares how tick-borne pathogens like Lyme and Bartonella can mimic depression, anxiety, dementia—even Alzheimer's—often leaving patients dismissed, untreated, or misdiagnosed. She exposes the limitations of standard antibody testing, the importance of direct pathogen detection, and the urgent need for patient advocacy in navigating chronic and complex illnesses.We also explore the overlooked role of pets as potential sentinels for disease, compounded family health risks, and how personal tragedy fueled Nicole's mission to push for better diagnostics, research funding, and awareness in the Lyme community.This episode is a call to action—for better testing, deeper listening, and a healthcare system that sees the full picture for both pets and humans.Episode Chapters 00:00 – Introduction: The Hidden Epidemic 05:52 – Why Lyme Testing Fails 11:57 – Pets, Ticks & Family Exposure 18:03 – A Family Forever Changed 26:05 – When Symptoms Turn Neurological 34:27 – Pathogens & Mental Health 39:37 – Advocacy in a Broken Systemlinkedin.com/in/nicoledaniellebellhttps://www.galaxydx.com/https://capcvet.org/--What started during the COVID-19 lockdown with one baby gorilla at the Cleveland Zoo has grown into a channel loved by animal fans around the world.
