In this episode of Vitality Made Simple, Joel Salatin, known as the ‘Lunatic Farmer,' explores what he calls our modern ‘guinea pig culture,' where children lack chores, families depend on processed convenience foods, and communities have forgotten how to be stewards of the land. He explains how this disconnect contributes to widespread mental health challenges, from poor self-worth to the loneliness epidemic, and how purpose-driven work and local food systems can help reverse this trend.Joel also dives into the importance of the microbiome, emphasizing that diversity—both in our gut and on our farms—is the key to resilience. He shares fascinating stories of regenerative farming, the powerful effects of rotational grazing, and why even worms can teach us what real food looks like. Throughout the episode, he ties his practical farming wisdom to his faith, reminding us that flourishing comes when we live in harmony with creation and design.Visit my website DrDebbieOzment.com for valuable free downloads.

Lonely? Your Brain's Begging for Connection   How Dr. Paul Zak Decoded the Neuroscience of Trust and Human Connection What if the secret to happiness, purpose, and even financial success lies in your brain's chemistry—and in how often you hug others? Have you ever wondered why we trust some people instantly and others not at all? Why love feels so healing—and why certain leaders inspire loyalty while others trigger fear? At the heart of these mysteries is a powerful brain chemical: oxytocin. “Oxytocin is a gift you have to give to somebody else.” – Dr. Paul Zak In this Richer Soul episode, Dr. Paul Zak, affectionately known as Dr. Love, reveals how understanding our brain's biology can transform the way we lead, parent, connect, and even build wealth.

Growth is beautiful—but let's be real, it can also feel incredibly lonely. In this episode, we talk about the in-between space: when you're outgrowing old patterns, people, and places, but the new hasn't fully formed yet. If you've ever felt like no one gets the version of you you're becoming, this one's for you. Let's talk about navigating the loneliness of elevation with grace, trust, and soul.Send me a direct message

Loneliness is a feeling lots of us face from time to time… and it might be more common than you think. A new study from the World Health Organisation suggests that between 2014 and 2023, one in six of us were feeling lonely - and teenage girls reported feeling this way the most. Apps like Bumble BFF or Meetup and social media groups dedicated to meeting new people are also on the rise. So why are so many of us feeling lonely? And what can you do to feel more connected?BBC journalist Emilia Jansson takes us on a friendship date, sharing her experience of using social media to make new friends and helping us to unpack the data on loneliness. We also hear from teenagers around the world who describe when they've felt lonely. And Dr Laurie Santos, a psychologist professor at Yale University in the US, tells us her top tips for tackling loneliness.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Iqra Farooq Producers: Mora Morrison and Chelsea Coates Editor: Emily Horler

Ever been surrounded by people, but felt painfully alone? It's more common than you think. Loneliness isn't just emotional—it's biological. It triggers the same brain systems as physical pain. If you've been feeling disconnected lately, it's not your fault. Your nervous system is simply trying to protect you.

Listen to today's podcast... Approximately 1 in 5 seniors say that they are lonely.  People can become lonely for any number of reasons, regardless of their age. Some people are lonely because they don't feel like they fit in, while others may become lonely after the death of a loved one. Other people might just suffer from an illness that doesn't allow them to see many people. When my boys were little, they were blessed to have 3 sets of grandparents and 3 sets of great-grandparents.  Life was busy with two little ones, but we made it a point of visiting each of the great grandparents.  Sometimes the boys would complain, and we would have to explain that not everyone's lives were busy like ours.  Grandmas and Grandpas loved us and looked forward to us visiting.  It made them happy.  It doesn't take much to cheer up the lonely and make a difference. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!  Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Cheer Up The Lonely Day: Let your friend or family member know that you are thinking about them.  Send them a message, call them on the phone, or go for a visit. We need physical contact, but giving a hug may not be appropriate at this time.  Did you know that giving 5 people a hug every day can lower your own stress level by 25%. Look for other ways to get connected. Ask what they need.  It's ok to ask.  And if they are not sure, let them know that you are there when they need you. If you like today's wellness tips, let me know.

And friendship begins with Him.

‘Lonely mouth is a Japanese expression. It means, like, you feel like you want to eat something, but you don't know what it is. You're looking for just the right thing. But maybe there is no right thing. Maybe you don't need anything at all.'This episode, we are talking and thinking about Jacqueline Maley's latest novel, Lonely Mouth. It begins with two young girls being abandoned by their mother at the Big Merino just out of Goulburn and goes on to be the story mostly of the elder sister Matilda, her hungers, losses, relationships, relationship to her sister Lara and her body. And it sparked this conversation which we hope you enjoy listening to. And as always, you don't have to have read the book to listen along, we deal more with the themes of the book than the plot (no spoilers we promise).Show notes with all the links and a soup to soothe and calm are coming to our wonderful subscribers shortly.Germaine and Sophie xThank you to our wonderful producer, Kristy Reading, for putting this and every episode together so beautifully.Thanks for reading Something to Eat and Something to Read!

Director Lucky McKee's best film (to anyone with taste) is obviously 2011's “The Woman”, but nine years before that he directed a movie about another woman. Yessir, May's her name (as well as the name of the film) and watching creepy dolls and making friends from human body parts is her game. If you want Zooey Deschanel's character in “New Girl” to be less whimsical and more of an addled creep, this is for you.

Porn, apps, and missing fathers created a male crisis of loneliness. Here, ManTalks podcast host Connor Beaton breaks down the data and offers solutions.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1178What We Discuss with Connor Beaton:Male loneliness epidemic: 15% of men report having no close friends (up from 3% in 1990), and 28% of men aged 18-24 have no close friends. This represents a massive social crisis.Fatherless homes crisis: 43% of US children live without their father. This correlates with 90% of homeless youth, 85% of behavioral disorders, 85% of youth in prison, and 90% of repeat arsonists.Porn addiction epidemic: Starting as young as 9-11 years old, chronic porn use creates desensitization, erectile dysfunction, unrealistic expectations, and replacement of real relationships.Collapse of male spaces: Traditional male-oriented spaces like Boy Scouts have disappeared, leaving young men without mentorship or models for healthy masculinity.Connor Beaton recommends that men spend two nights per week with male friends for optimal mental health. Building real friendships through taking social risks — joining teams, starting conversations — combats loneliness.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

There were so many days I felt completely alone. I didn't even know how to ask for help—because I didn't know what kind of help I needed. I just knew I couldn't keep doing everything by myself. Maybe you're in that place too. You're carrying the vision. You're showing up for everyone else. But deep down, you're tired… and wondering who's showing up for you. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the loneliest parts of leading a microschool—and how I found my way out. Not with a perfect plan. Not with a huge team. But with one honest question: “Can you help me?” I'll share what happened when I lost our building, scrambled through commercial properties, and had to lean harder than ever on the community I didn't even realize I'd already built. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, isolated, or unsure how to let others in—this is the episode you've been needing. Because you don't have to pretend to have it all together. You just need the courage to invite someone in. And when you do? Everything begins to shift. Need support mapping it all out?
