It's the third episode of the 2025 Gobal Leadership Summit Recap Series on Stories from the River! In today's episode, CEO Charlie Malouf welcomes Meagan Guzman, the newly hired Associate Director of People Operations. Just two months into her journey at Broad River Retail, Meagan reflects on her cross-country move from San Diego, her early experiences at the company, and the energizing environment of the Global Leadership Summit. This conversation highlights the value of attending the Summit with fellow leaders from Broad River and other community members, emphasizing the power of collective learning and networking, including a memorable instance of connecting with a potential future Memory Maker. The heart of the episode centers on insights from the keynote by Thasunda Brown Duckett, CEO of TIAA. Charlie and Meagan delve into Duckett's inspiring rise from humble beginnings as a "first generation integration" leader to overseeing $1.6 trillion in assets. They discuss her powerful lessons about consistent excellence, gratitude for those behind the scenes, and her refreshingly honest take on work-life balance as a "diversified portfolio," where giving oneself grace is essential.  Meagan relates personally to Duckett's advice, especially when navigating tough personal moments as a new leader. The episode also celebrates Duckett's mentorship style—her use of "coffee and tea" conversations to break down barriers, gather feedback from diverse groups, and uplift the next generation of leaders.

Did you know that nearly one in three people with obesity may have fatty liver disease without even knowing it? In this episode, I talk about groundbreaking news in obesity and liver health, focusing on the FDA's recent approval of WeGovy to treat metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis (MASH) with moderate to advanced fibrosis. I share a personal story about a friend who once struggled with fatigue, abnormal liver tests, and fatty liver disease, highlighting how limited treatment options used to be. I explain what MASH is, why it's so serious, and how common it is, especially among people with obesity and metabolic syndrome.  Furthermore, I dive into the ESSENCE trial, which showed that WeGovy not only improved liver inflammation and scarring but in some cases even reversed the disease, all while emphasizing that it works best when combined with lifestyle changes like healthy eating and regular activity.  Don't miss this episode where I break down the latest breakthrough in liver and weight loss care that could change your health journey!   Episode Highlights: FDA approval of WeGovy for treating MASH with fibrosis The ESSENCE trial results showing improvements in liver health Understanding what MASH is and why it's so common Importance of combining medication with lifestyle changes Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

Sometimes the most tempting quick fixes, like eating only one type of food, can actually set you back on your health journey. In this episode, I explored the viral TikTok trend known as the watermelon diet, breaking down why it may seem tempting but is ultimately risky and unsustainable. I shared a story about a friend who was pressured to try it and explained how social media can create unrealistic expectations and comparisons. While watermelon has health benefits like hydration, low calories, and vitamins, I highlighted the dangers of relying on it exclusively—nutrient deficiencies, loss of muscle mass, blood sugar spikes, digestive issues, and unsustainable weight loss. I emphasized that real progress comes from balance: eating a variety of nutrient-rich foods, staying consistent with healthy habits, moving in enjoyable ways, managing stress, and prioritizing rest. Most importantly, I reminded listeners to focus on their own journey, celebrate small wins, and not let social media dictate their worth.   Tune in to discover the truth behind viral diet trends and learn healthier, lasting ways to reach your goals.   Episode Highlights: The rise of the viral watermelon diet on social media Why extreme mono fruit diets are risky and unsustainable Health benefits of watermelon in moderation Nutrient deficiencies and health risks linked to the diet The role of comparison and pressure from social media Science-backed strategies for balanced, long-term weight loss Importance of mindset, consistency, and celebrating small wins Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

Imagine being accused of murdering two of your friends, convicted based on fabricated evidence, and spending the next 27 and a half years behind bars for a crime you did not commit. That was the reality for Shabaka Shakur, whose wrongful conviction was secured by the now-disgraced NYPD detective Louis Scarcella. In this gripping conversation, Shabaka shares the harrowing details of his arrest, trial, and decades-long fight to prove his innocence. He opens up about the emotional toll of losing family members who died believing he was guilty, the determination it took to study the law from inside prison walls, and the network of wrongfully convicted men who fought together for justice. Shabaka also reflects on the broken criminal justice system of the late '80s and '90s, when closing cases often mattered more than uncovering the truth. His story is one of unimaginable loss, unshakable resilience, and the relentless pursuit of freedom. This is more than a story about wrongful conviction—it's about the human cost of a justice system that gets it wrong. Shabaka's Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/sha_da_boss/?hl=en Live Life in Motion YouTube: GO Subscribehttps://www.youtube.com/@livelifeinmotionpodcast Pelham Medical Centerhttps://www.spartanburgregional.com/locations/pelham-medical-center

This week on Live Life in Motion, I sit down with Kat Sorensen—CEO of Laguna Shores Treatment Center, founder of Chains to Change, and creator behind SoCalKattt. Kat shares her gripping journey from a high-performing tech sales executive and competitive bodybuilder to battling alcohol and prescription drug addiction, and ultimately becoming a leader in the recovery community. We dive deep into the illusion of “high-functioning” addiction, the myth of the geographical cure, and the transformative role of community and self-inventory in lasting sobriety. Kat opens up about the emotional roots of her addiction, the mental obsession triggered by that first drink, and the power of external intervention that changed her life. This episode is a testament to healing, compassion, and the strength found in vulnerability. Whether you're in recovery or seeking inspiration, Kat's story is one you won't forget.Kat's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/soberkatt?igsh=MWplMzJnc3U2OGVudg==Live Life in Motion YouTube: GO Subscribehttps://www.youtube.com/@livelifeinmotionpodcastPelham Medical Centerhttps://www.spartanburgregional.com/locations/pelham-medical-center

When it comes to weight loss, the scale isn't the only thing that changes—your reflection and self-image often transform too. In this episode, I talk about a topic gaining attention in the media and social circles: "Ozempic face" and the emotional and physical effects of rapid weight loss, especially for those using GLP-1 medications like Wegovy, Zepbound, or Ozempic. I share a story about a friend who hesitated to increase her dosage due to concerns about skin changes, which opened the door to a larger discussion on body image during weight loss. I explain that these facial and skin changes—such as sagging, wrinkles, or looking more tired—aren't exclusive to medication use but are common with any significant weight loss, especially as we age.  Furthermore, I walk through ways to manage these concerns, like slowing down weight loss, prioritizing resistance training and protein, staying hydrated, considering aesthetic treatments, and most importantly, shifting focus from appearance to overall health. I emphasize the importance of support, tuning out unsolicited comments, and curating a healthier social media feed.  If you're navigating weight loss and struggling with body image changes like "Ozempic face," listen to this empowering episode for real talk, expert tips, and compassionate support on your journey.   Episode Highlights: What “Ozempic face” really means and why it happens Emotional impact of rapid weight loss and changing appearance How to manage body image concerns during weight loss Practical tips: strength training, hydration, and pacing weight loss Cosmetic treatment options and when to consider them The role of social media in shaping unrealistic expectations Reframing the focus from appearance to overall health and wellness Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

We're back! And this time, we're turning our attention to another ambiguous concept that has long shaped public (mis)understandings of autism: empathy.As always, you can find a (not Substack-generated) transcript of the episode, as well as a music-free remix, here.“I choose to live life deliberately”Maybe you've heard the claim that autistic people “lack empathy.” Or maybe you've heard the opposite: that, in fact, autistic people are hyper-empathetic.Maybe you've even heard that autistic people are so hyper-empathetic that they have paranormal telepathic abilities. Yikes!But what if, instead of making sweeping generalizations, we learned about the nuances of one person's experiences with empathy? When Joanna and I first started working on NeuroDiving, we did what any super-serious podcasters would do: we made a website. Not even a week after it went live, I received a friendly email from a minister in Santa Cruz, CA named Ryan Althaus. Diagnosed with autism as an adult, Ryan was eager to dive into the philosophical dimensions of his diagnosis. I Googled him, and in that Googling, I found a sermon in which he mentioned scoring a “0” on an empathy test while still in seminary. I had to know more.Turns out, Ryan had a whole host of insights into the nature of empathy. In our conversation with Ryan—NeuroDiving's first-ever interview!—he talked us through his experiences taking psychometric tests, reflected on how empathy shows up in his own life, and offered thoughtful critiques of over-reliance on empathy.So, in this episode, meet Ryan. I doubt you'll think about empathy in quite the same way again.Topics Discussed* Meet Ryan! (00:20)* Surprisingly, a psych test labeled Ryan as having “no empathy” (01:48).* Ryan's background (05:21).* How Ryan was diagnosed with autism after experience eating disorder relapse (06:07).* Ryan's autism diagnosis helped make sense of those earlier psych test results (the ones claiming he had “no empathy”). We explore the psych tests used in seminaries. (09:30).* Those psych tests also said that Ryan “likes to break rules for fun” (11:53).* The church polity exam illustrates Ryan's relationship with rules (12:56).* Autistic people tend to get low scores on tests that claim to measure empathy—but those tests have limitations (15:23).* How Ryan experiences cognitive empathy (AKA theory of mind) (20:58). * Ryan's experiences with emotional contagion (22:08).* Ryan's experience with “abstract empathy” (23:45).* Connection to alexithymia (24:34).* Ryan's experiments in living—how Ryan has worked to understand other people's experiences and emotions (25:46).* Ryan's three critiques of empathy (28:06).Sources Mentioned* Ryan Althaus, From Emaciated to Emancipated: The Story of a Skinny Mango (2023).* Even more books by Ryan!* Ryan's radio show. * Floyd and Gupta, “Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory,” StatPearls (2023).* The “unofficial” list of questions used to place people on the psychopathic deviate scale.* Some examples of the “standard view” on autism and empathy:* Langwerden, et al., “An Exploratory Study of MMPI-2-RF Personality and Psychopathology Profiles of Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder without Intellectual Disability,” Clinical Neuropsychiatry, Vol. 19 Issue 5 (2022).* Shah, et al., “Trait Autism is a Better Predictor of Empathy than Alexithymia,” Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders (2019).* Sindermann, et al., “Empathy, Autistic Tendencies, and Systematizing Tendencies: Relationships Between Standard Self-Report Measures,” Frontiers in Psychiatry (2019).* An autistic researcher's take on autism and empathy:* Silvertant, “Autistics have lower empathy?” (2021).CreditsHosting, Research, Fact-Checking, Script-Editing: Amelia Hicks and Joanna LawsonGuest: Ryan AlthausMusic and Audio Production: Amelia HicksThank-YousThank you to Ryan for sharing his experiences and insights with us!

Pastor Mike Cole kicks off our new series Radical Life: Love, Serve, and Live Like Never Before by unpacking the journey of Moses—a man who doesn't feel ready, but God calls anyway. Step by step, God equips him through signs, support, and trust-building moments. The message is clear: you don't need to have it all figured out to say yes to God. From Moses to today, living a radical life means trusting that God is on the move and following Him—even when the path doesn't make sense. Radical faith begins with obedience. Just say yes. ____ Partner with New Tribe: Give | https://newtribe.church/give/ ____ Connect with New Tribe: Website | https://newtribe.church/comeexperience/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/newtribechurch Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/newtribechurch YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/newtribechurch

On October 7, 2023, the city of Sderot became one of the first places Hamas unleashed its brutal assault. But right there - in a city riddled with bullet holes, bomb shelters on every corner, and stories of terrorized children - there's something unexpected: life.  In this gripping and emotional episode, we sit down with Pastor Michael, leader of City of Life Ministries, just steps from the rubble where terrorists stormed and slaughtered innocent police officers on that Shabbat morning. He takes us into the chaos of those early hours, the miracle that spared his apartment building, and what it's like to raise a family under rocket fire - with just 15 seconds to run for cover.  But this isn't just a story of survival. It's a story of spiritual resistance. Of staying. Of blessing. Of building a community that not only endures, but proclaims hope in Yeshua despite pressure, persecution, and war. This episode reveals what the global headlines miss: how God is still writing His story in the land of Israel - even when the world wants to erase it. Key Takeaways: The October 7 Attack in Sderot: Pastor Michael recounts how Hamas deliberately targeted the local police station - killing friends and neighbors - while miraculously sparing nearby residents. Raising Families Under Fire: For over two decades, families in Sderot have lived under constant rocket threat. Bomb shelters aren't just safety - they're part of daily life. A Ministry of Life in a City of Death: City of Life Ministries feeds the hungry, counsels the traumatized, shelters the displaced, and proclaims the eternal hope found in Yeshua - right in the heart of a war zone. Opposition from Within: While Hamas wages war outside, ultra-Orthodox communities protest against Messianic Jews inside. Pastor Michael shares the spiritual and legal battles they've faced and how they keep loving their enemies. The Bigger Picture: What if this war is stirring both Jews and Christians toward a deeper prophetic return - to the land, to the Scriptures, and to one another? Pastor Michael unpacks a theopolitical vision of what God might be doing in our time.

Did you know that high fructose corn syrup, a sweetener found in everything from soda to salad dressing, has been linked to obesity, diabetes, and inflammation? In this episode, I explore a surprising claim by Donald Trump that Coca Cola may switch from high fructose corn syrup to cane sugar—and use this as a springboard to explore the health concerns around high fructose corn syrup. I break down what it is, why it's used so widely in processed foods, and the many health risks it poses, from obesity and diabetes to inflammation and high blood pressure. I even share a patient story that highlights its real-life impact. While cane sugar isn't a healthy food either, it may have fewer metabolic downsides. Regardless of whether Coca Cola makes the switch, I emphasize the power we have to read labels, reduce added sugar, choose more whole foods, and make smarter decisions for our health. Tune in to learn how cutting back on hidden sugars like high fructose corn syrup can transform your health and energy!   Episode Highlights: Trump's claim about Coca Cola switching to cane sugar What high fructose corn syrup is and why it's widely used Health risks linked to high fructose corn syrup Real-life patient story on soda and high blood pressure Differences between cane sugar and high fructose corn syrup Practical tips for reducing added sugar in your diet Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

Did you know that stopping GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Wegovy can trigger powerful biological and emotional changes that impact your weight journey? In this episode, I talk about what happens when you stop taking a GLP-1 medication, like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound. I explain how these medications work by slowing stomach emptying, reducing appetite, and helping with insulin regulation, which supports weight loss and benefits conditions like type 2 diabetes and PCOS. However, I also share that they're not magic pills, you still need healthy habits like eating well and exercising. I highlight possible side effects, such as nausea or pancreatitis risks, and emphasize that stopping these medications can lead to increased hunger, cravings, weight regain, and even emotional distress. But I also reassure you that this isn't a sign of failure. Weight regain is often biological, not personal. I offer tips for tapering off safely, reinforcing lifestyle habits, and exploring other options. Most importantly, I remind you that your journey is valid, you're not alone, and lasting success requires a plan, support, and self-compassion. Tune in to learn what really happens when you stop taking GLP-1 medications—and how to stay empowered and in control of your weight journey.   Episode Highlights: How GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy work Common side effects and safety considerations What to expect when stopping GLP-1s, both physically and emotionally Strategies to manage weight regain and maintain healthy habits Alternative tools and support options beyond medication Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

In this episode, I talk about what to do when you're feeling completely unmotivated to stick with healthy habits.
