Most of us spend our lives looking ahead—to the next goal, the next responsibility, or the next season. But what if wisdom begins by giving our full attention to the moment we're already living? In this thoughtful conversation, Skip sits down with longtime optometrist, respected leader, wife, mother, and lifelong student of wisdom, Dr. Jacquie Bowen. Through stories of family, leadership, adversity, and personal reinvention, Jacquie reminds us that presence, grace, and faithful attention aren't lofty ideals—they're daily decisions. She shares the deeply personal story of launching an optometry practice while navigating profound challenges as a young mother, reflects on decades of servant leadership, and offers practical wisdom for anyone stepping into a new season of life. Why This Episode Matters Whether you're approaching retirement, changing careers, becoming an empty nester, caring for aging parents, or simply sensing that life is inviting you into a new season, this conversation offers steady companionship and practical wisdom. Jacquie reminds us that identities evolve without erasing who we've been, grace is often the wisest response, and the next chapter begins not someday—but in the ordinary choices we make today.   In This Conversation Why presence is a daily practice—not a personality trait Learning to release old identities without losing yourself Saying "yes" to opportunities that shape a meaningful life Extending grace to yourself and others during difficult seasons Habits that help us become more attentive, intentional, and fully present   More about Our Wise Guest - Dr. Jacquie Bowen Jacquie Bowen is one of those rare people whose wisdom feels immediately livable. She calls Helena, MT her hometown but has been a Coloradan for well over 30 years. She is Doug's wife of 36 years, Ryley and Jadyn's mom, and "Grammy" to Phoebe and Daphne for a much shorter time. As a practicing optometrist and Immediate Past President of the American Optometric Association, Dr. Bowen takes her professional role very seriously, and she's enjoyed caring for her patients through many changes in health care. But she also takes her hobbies seriously as she anticipates and designs the "third third" of her life. She loves the ocean, history, singing, walking and traveling. A committed Christian, Jacquie looks forward to service and volunteerism outside her profession as well as prioritizing health and family. She joined us from her home in Greeley, Colorado, about an hour north of Denver. Settle in for a 40-minute wisdom conversation that will make you feel just a bit more alive, more focused and perhaps even more hopeful.

Do you feel exhausted but can't seem to wind down? That wired-but-tired feeling so many women experience in midlife has a name, and a cause most doctors never address. In this episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, Marnie and Stephanie are joined by Dr. Scott Sherr, a board-certified internal medicine physician and expert in health optimization, to explore the connection between chronic stress, hormone changes, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Dr. Scott introduces the concept of the "sympathetic spiral of doom" — the cycle of stress, poor sleep, and cellular energy breakdown that keeps so many women stuck, and shares practical, science-backed ways to break it. The conversation covers methylene blue (what it is, how it works, and who should use it), GABA and nervous system support, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Dr. Scott also explains why only 6% of US adults have optimally functioning mitochondria, and what the other 94% can do about it. Key Takeaways: Chronic stress and hormone fluctuations directly impair mitochondrial function Estrogen is a critical mitochondrial optimizer, losing it in perimenopause has real cellular consequences Only 6% of US adults are metabolically healthy; symptoms of the rest range from brain fog to poor sleep to slow recovery Methylene blue supports mitochondrial energy production and works as a bridge while you optimize your health more broadly If a GABA supplement works for you, that's a warning sign worth paying attention to Down-regulating the nervous system too fast, without mitochondrial support, can cause a crash Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is most effective once you have a foundational health plan in place Sleep is one of the most powerful levers for mitochondrial health 00:00 – Introduction and Dr. Scott's background 04:13 – Why midlife women's bodies stop responding the way they used to 07:32 – Progesterone, GABA, and sleep disruption 09:04 – What mitochondria actually do and why they matter 13:16 – The 6% metabolic health statistic 17:00 – The sympathetic spiral of doom, explained 21:01 – Cortisol: misunderstood and mismanaged 29:32 – What methylene blue is and how to use it 33:55 – Who should not take methylene blue 38:33 – Performance, travel, and targeted use 47:17 – GABA support and down-regulating the nervous system 55:18 – Hyperbaric oxygen therapy: benefits, timing, and protocols 01:00:52 – One action to take today 01:03:09 – Where to find Dr. Scott and his products Guest Links: Dr. Scott Sherr: drscottsherr.com Troscriptions: troscriptions.com Use code LIVINGWELL for 10% off Products mentioned: Just Blue, Blue Cannatine, Tro Calm, Tro Zzz This episode is brought to you by Good Health Saunas.

MRI scans are a familiar part of MS care – but what are they actually showing, and what might future scans reveal? In this episode of Living Well with MS, host Geoff Allix speaks with MRI physicist Bhavana Solanky from the Queen Square MS Centre at University College London, where she develops advanced MRI markers to better understand multiple sclerosis.  Bhavana explains how MRI is used to diagnose and monitor MS, from spotting new lesions to helping clinicians understand disease activity over time. She also explores how different types of MRI scans work, why the same scanner can produce several kinds of images, and how advanced techniques such as sodium MRI and spectroscopy are helping researchers look beyond visible lesions.  The conversation also covers why research volunteers are so important and how future scans could become faster and more comfortable.  Watch this episode on YouTube.

We discuss why patients are often dismissed, how stress and hormonal changes can amplify symptoms, and what a realistic, stepwise treatment approach looks like when the evidence base is still evolving.In this episode, we discuss:• What mast cells do and why MCAS can affect multiple organ systems • Why MCAS is often missed in siloed medical care and mislabeled as anxiety • Barrier dysfunction, environmental triggers, and intestinal permeability as a useful framework • Histamine as one mediator among many and why antihistamines are not a perfect treatment for all• Links between MCAS, IBS, visceral hypersensitivity, dysautonomia, and POTS • Hypermobility, pelvic floor dysfunction, and neck tension as common clinical clues • Treatment principles including start low and go slow, informed consent, and layered individualized plans • Dietary approaches patients commonly explore, including low-histamine, low-FODMAP, and gluten-free patterns • Hormonal influences across the menstrual cycle and during perimenopause• The role of sleep, nervous system regulation, and stress reduction in decreasing symptom reactivity If you've ever felt like your symptoms don't fit neatly into a single diagnosis, this episode will help you make sense of the bigger picture and explore what healing can look like when the gut, immune system, and nervous system are all part of the conversation. References:Ford AC, Staudacher HM, Talley NJ.

Stephanie Rousselle and guest Dr. Alan Noble discuss living well in today's world by reclaiming forgotten Christian virtues. Drawing from Noble's book, To Live Well, let's consider practical steps Christians can take to thrive amid cultural confusion.According to Noble, we're surrounded by an overwhelming cacophony of voices (social media, celebrities, self-help gurus, even misguided pastors), each offering conflicting advice on how to live a meaningful life. This deluge of ideas leaves many—Christians included—feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and directionless. The key challenge: how do we discern a coherent, godly way of living amid so many broken narratives?Noble suggests reclaiming classic virtues—time-honored character strengths rooted in Christian tradition and Scripture—as a path toward living well. He points out that Protestants, in particular, have neglected these virtues, though historically theologians like Augustine, Aquinas, and Calvin all upheld their value.Practicing these virtues is not about earning favor with God. Instead, Christians live out virtue in grateful response to God's grace, relying on the Spirit's power, and always within community, where we are supported, challenged, and forgiven when we fail.So, let's consider 3 of the 7 virtues Alan Noble offers in his book.1. Prudence (choosing decisively)Prudence means choosing decisively and wisely. In a world obsessed with limitless choice, prudence involves slowing down, humbly discerning reality, seeking what truly glorifies God, deliberate decision-making, and resolute action. Prudence guards against both indecision (paralysis) and the sunk-cost fallacy—stubbornly sticking with poor choices out of pride or prior investment.2. Fortitude (Suffering steadfastly)Modern culture avoids suffering at all costs, but Noble explains that fortitude is about the courage to endure or risk suffering for the sake of the good. Suffering, rightly faced, builds character and produces hope—connecting deeply to the sanctifying work God does in His people. Fortitude enables Christians to move through hardship, trusting that even suffering has purpose.Magnanimity is boldly living into the excellence and gifts God has given, for His glory and the good of others. Pusillanimity, by contrast, is timidity—hiding or burying your God-given talents out of fear. As illustrated in the parable of the talents, God calls each believer to step out in faith and use their gifts with courage.3. Temperance (living moderately)Temperance is the willful restraint from doing everything you can do, especially when surrounded with endless technological, social, and material options. Choosing not to indulge every impulse, but to order choices for God's glory, is countercultural but vital for soul health.When we reorder our perspectives around these timeless virtues, we move from confusion and anxiety toward clarity, purpose, and peace—living as God intended, by His grace and for His glory.ApplicationSelf-examine: Where do you feel confused or pressured by the “heap of broken images” in your life?Practice virtues: Choose to cultivate prudence, fortitude, magnanimity, and temperance, seeking wisdom, courage, excellence, and self-control in daily choices.Pursue community: Remember that virtue grows in fellowship with others; seek relationships that encourage and hold you accountable.Rest in grace: When you fail, rely on God's grace and learn from your mistakes. Embrace the freedom found in Christ's finished work.MORE ABOUT “TO LIVE WELL”You were told to live a meaningful life. But no one ever told you how.Our lives are shaped by contradictions. Competing voices tell us who to be, what to want, and how to live. The result? A fragmented moral imagination. We're handed a thousand broken messages and left to cobble together something resembling a life. But instead of clarity, we get exhaustion. Instead of wisdom, we get anxiety.This leaves you asking yourself How can I get through when I feel alone and confused? How can I live well in this broken and chaotic world?In To Live Well, Alan Noble shows you how you can not only endure but flourish in life. Through exploring the seven virtues of prudence, justice, fortitude, temperance, faith, hope, and love, you'll learn how tochoose gracefully,act justly,suffer steadfastly,live moderately,believe soundly,hope resolutely, andlove rightly.This book won't give you a ten-step plan to fix everything. It doesn't promise clarity overnight. But it will invite you into something deeper: an ancient, time-tested path of habits of heart and mind that shape who we are and how we live.With honesty, theological depth, and a mentor's heart, Noble names your confusion and offers an antidote―not by escaping the mess but by learning how to live faithfully within it. If you've ever longed for something solid in a world that just wants to sell you more temporary stuff, To Live Well is a good place to begin.Do you feel the pain and pressure of spiritual exhaustion? Do you feel unworthy despite consistent effort? Do you lack joy in your personal faith? Do you desire practical, daily rhythms that sustain delight in God?  That's why I wrote "Awaken Delight." It will help you (re)discover:1-Delight in God is identity-shaping, not emotion-driven. Delight in God is not fleeting emotion but resilient identity.2-Delight in God is altogether trust, satisfaction in God, relational intimacy with Him. Delight in God is often expressed and grown through resilient joy under suffering.3-Jesus is the center of every endeavor to delight in God.These are some of the truths we ponder together through my book, Awaken Delight."Awaken Delight" is a theologically grounded spiritual formation book for thoughtful believers who feel spiritually fatigued, and ready to embrace the reality of delight in God.Find out more at https://www.gospelspice.com/awakendelight Support us on Gospel Spice, PayPal and Venmo!

In this episode, I'm sharing a special three-part Ayurveda Summer Camp series that I originally recorded as a video series a few years ago — and the content felt too good not to bring to the podcast.Ayurveda is one of the most practical, beautiful systems for understanding your body, energy, habits, and daily rhythms. It's not about following a rigid list of rules or trying to force yourself into someone else's version of health. It's about learning how to listen to your body, understand what it's communicating, and create simple daily routines that bring you back into balance.Inside this episode, we explore what Ayurveda actually means by “perfect health,” why so many of us keep making choices that go against what we know is good for us, and how to begin living in deeper integrity with your body, your energy, and the natural rhythms of the day.You'll also learn the basics of the five elements, the three doshas, and the Ayurvedic clock — including why your biggest meal should be at lunch, why bedtime matters so much, and why your morning routine can shape the energy of your entire day.In this episode, you'll learn:How Ayurveda defines perfect healthWhy perfect health is less about discipline and more about alignmentThe #1 cause of disease, according to AyurvedaWhy we keep doing things we know don't serve usHow self-awareness helps you rebuild body integrityAyurveda basics of the five elements and the three doshas: kapha, pitta, and vataHow the Ayurvedic clock can help you optimize digestion, sleep, energy, and clarityWhy lunch is meant to be your biggest mealWhy getting to bed before your second wind mattersWhy the early morning hours are so powerful for identity, creativity, and neuroplasticityHow daily rituals help you stop living reactively and start living intentionallyJoin us inside The Pleasure Project ProgramThis is exactly what we'll be diving into in June inside The Pleasure Project Program: magical morning routines, better sleep, aligned meals, daily rituals, and the little things that help you feel and look your absolute best.If you'd love support applying these principles to your real life, I'd love to invite you to join us.Apply for The Pleasure Project Program hereDM me on Instagram and let me know your biggest takeaway from this episode.Click here to join The Pleasure Project Program

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Michelle Jorgensen, a holistic dentist and founder of Living Well with Dr. Michelle, to explore the powerful connection between oral health and systemic wellness. Through her own personal experience with mercury toxicity from dental fillings, Dr. Jorgensen shares how that journey transformed her approach to dentistry and led her toward a more integrative, physiology-based model of care. We discuss how chronic oral inflammation may contribute to broader health issues, including cardiovascular disease, metabolic dysfunction, and chronic inflammation throughout the body. We also dive into topics such as mercury amalgams, fluoride, root canals, dental meridians, and the growing understanding of how the mouth can influence the rest of the body. From alternative dental care strategies to the role of hydroxyapatite and oil pulling, this conversation challenges conventional thinking and highlights why oral health should be part of every comprehensive wellness plan. If you want to better understand the mouth-body connection and how oral health impacts long-term wellness, this episode will completely change the way you think about dentistry.   Key takeaways: Oral Health's Impact on Overall Health: The mouth is a gateway influencing systemic health, potentially driving inflammation and chronic disease. Dangers of Conventional Dental Practices: Practices like mercury fillings, fluoride use, and root canals may contribute to broader health issues. Holistic Approach & Dental Meridians: The intricate network connecting teeth to body systems underlines the importance of holistic dental practices. Role of Dentists in Health: Dentists have a responsibility to protect patient health beyond traditional drilling and filling.   More About Dr. Michelle Jorgensen: Today's guest is Dr. Michelle Jorgensen, a former traditional dentist turned holistic health pioneer, who helps exhausted, health-conscious people finally feel like themselves again—by starting where health actually begins: your cells. She's the founder of Living Well with Dr. Michelle and author of her newly released book by the same name, which reveals how to decode your symptoms and give your body exactly what it needs to heal, thrive, and stay energized—without the fads, overwhelm, or guesswork. If you're tired of chasing health trends and still not feeling better, this conversation is for you.   Website Instagram Connect with me! Website Instagram Facebook YouTube

Part 3 of the Women's Health SeriesBloating, gas, urgency, abdominal pain, and that relentless “what if something happens?” loop can turn sex from a close connection into stress fast. Digestive symptoms can quietly impact some of the most vulnerable parts of our lives...including intimacy, relationships, and self-esteem. And often, the shame surrounding those experiences feels heavier than the symptoms themselves. If you've ever pulled away from connection because your gut felt unpredictable, this conversation is for you. In this episode, we're opening up an honest and empowering discussion about gut health, confidence, and reclaiming intimacy without fear or embarrassment.We dive into this topic with our expert guest, Dr. Alyse Bedell, GI psychologist and Certified Sex Therapist, covering: • Why digestive functions feel taboo in sexual relationships • How IBS and IBD symptoms can impact desire, relaxation, and satisfaction • Myth-busting the idea that sex must be spontaneous to be pleasurable • Scripts and “reset” strategies for handling symptoms in the moment • Redefining intimacy so closeness does not always imply intercourse • Flexible planning around meals, energy, triggers, and symptom patterns • Partner support that reassures without becoming patronizing • The circular sexual response cycle and starting from sexual neutrality • Rebuilding sexual self-esteem with stigma work and acting with "as if” confidence This episode has been sponsored by Ardelyx. References: Ballou S, McMahon C, Lee HN, et al.

Original airdate: March 7, 2023 What does it really mean to live well—and why do Scandinavian countries consistently rank among the happiest in the world? In this episode, we move beyond surface-level ideas of happiness and explore the deeper philosophies that shape everyday life across Northern Europe. From a grounded sense of contentment to a cultural emphasis on balance, these perspectives offer a quieter, more sustainable approach to wellbeing. I'm joined by Lola Akinmade Åkerström—an award-winning writer, photographer, and cultural storyteller whose work spans over 70 countries and has been featured in publications such as National Geographic, BBC, and The Guardian. Having lived across continents, Lola brings a nuanced lens to how culture influences the way we relate, work, and find meaning. Together, we explore what “happiness” really means in a Scandinavian context, the everyday philosophies that shape a more balanced life, and how culture influences our expectations of success and wellbeing. We also reflect on how these principles can be thoughtfully applied to our own lives, especially if the pursuit of happiness has started to feel more like pressure than peace. If you've ever felt that chasing happiness only makes it more elusive, this conversation offers a refreshing and deeply grounding alternative.

What if the key to thriving in today's fast-paced world has been around for thousands of years? In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh connects with ninth-generation doctor of Eastern medicine Dr. Jenelle Kim to explore the ancient principles behind modern wellness, longevity, and true inner balance. Dr. Jenelle shares the deeply personal story behind her book, “The Korean Art of Living Well: The Eight Keys of Living Meditation for Balance and Transformation,” a work inspired by her lineage and her father's legacy. Rooted in 10,000-year-old Daoist traditions, she introduces the three pillars of optimal living: medicine, movement, and mindset. The conversation dives into how modern life creates stagnation, mentally, physically, and spiritually, and how simple practices like breathwork, grounding, and even laughter can restore flow. Dr. Jenelle explains that true wellness comes down to function and flow, and that imbalance begins when we become stuck in our thoughts.
