In this episode Sharley shares her multifaceted life story, starting with her career as a cleaner and organizer, which she began as a means of survival after her marriage ended. She discusses her love for organizing and how it has been a gratifying profession for nearly 15 years. The conversation then shifts to Sharley's experiences as a writer. She recounts how she began her writing journey through blogging, which led her to co-author two published pieces before embarking on her current project: a memoir. This memoir, which she started in her early thirties, aims to capture her life experiences, particularly her adoption story and her complex journey as a mother. Sharley provides a deeply personal account of her biological family's history, including her quest to uncover her roots. This research revealed challenging truths about her biological mother, who struggled with schizophrenia and substance abuse, and her biological grandfather's tragic car accident that took her grandmother's life. A significant portion of the podcast is dedicated to discussing Sharley's estranged relationship with her daughter and how this estrangement has impacted her mental health and well-being. She reflects on the difficulties of reconciling with adult children and the pain of missed time, especially with her grandson. Sharley also touches upon the challenges and emotional complexities of the adoption of her twins, who were raised by their father. She describes the eventual reconnection with her children through social media when they turned 18 and the bittersweet nature of these reunions. The episode concludes with Sharley discussing her current projects and ambitions, including finishing her memoir, which she tentatively titles "Monster in the Mirror." She shares the poignant symbolism behind this title and her hopes for a better relationship with her children in the future.

What if everything you think you know about addiction is wrong? Johann Hari's personal journey into the heart of the war on drugs led him to ask this question and to write the book that gave rise to his viral TED talk, viewed more than 62 million times. Johann Hari is a best selling author of many books like Chasing the Scream, the War on Drugs, Lost Connections, Stolen Focus, and Magic Pill - The extraordinary benefits and disturbing risks of new weight loss drugs.”We previously released an episode with Kate DeAraugo about her personal experiences with addiction and today we wanted to look at addiction a bit more broadly and unpack how it comes about and why so many of our loved ones are battling with addiction or substance abuse issues. We spoke about: The difficult narrative of loving an addict and not knowing what to do to help The story of what causes addiction isn't accurate Why blaming it all on biology isn't helpful, nor is blaming it all on personal choices Policies based on shame and punishment make addiction worse How much control we actually have over our own willpower People with ‘addictive' personalities The money-happiness trap; the hedonic effect You can find all of Johann's books and further information at his website.

She also touches on the challenges of loneliness, particularly the kind that stems from not sharing meaningful experiences with others, and offers insights into how she has navigated these feelings. Throughout the episode, Chantelle's story is one of resilience and empowerment, encouraging us to take control of our lives and make conscious, fulfilling choices.The books that Chantelle recommends in the episode:Lost Connections by Johann Harihttp://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1408878720/ref=nosim?tag=thedivorceb00-21You were not born to suffer Blake D Bauerhttp://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1525246119/ref=nosim?tag=thedivorceb00-21And you can find Chantelle here:www.chantellethecoach.comAnd on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/chantellethecoach/I hope you love hearing Chantelle talk as much as I loved chatting with her

Welcome to episode #938 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #938. He's back! Johann Hari, the bestselling author and celebrated journalist, is known for diving deep into the human condition, from addiction to depression to our scattered attention. His books, translated into 40 languages, have earned praise from the likes of Oprah, Elton John, and Noam Chomsky. Now, Johann is back with his latest book, Magic Pill - The Extraordinary Benefits And Disturbing Risks Of The New Weight-Loss Drugs, and it's sparking conversations everywhere. In our lively chat, Johann opens up about his latest journey, one that began with him injecting himself with Ozempic, a new weight-loss drug. Imagine losing up to a quarter of your body weight in just six months. Sounds like magic, right? But Johann wasn't entirely convinced. He dove into this world with a mix of hope and skepticism, exploring whether these drugs are a miraculous solution or just another illusion. Johann breaks down the good, the bad, and the ugly of these new drugs. On the plus side, they offer significant health benefits for those struggling with severe obesity, potentially reducing risks of diabetes, cancer, and early death. But, and it's a big but, they come with their own set of risks and side effects. Johann didn't just stop at the surface - he traveled from Iceland to Minneapolis to Tokyo, talking to top experts and uncovering twelve major potential risks that come with these seemingly wonder drugs. Our discussion also takes a broader look at the roots of the obesity crisis. Johann points out how our shift from whole foods to processed junk has played a huge role. He explains why diets often fail in the long run — our bodies are biologically programmed to resist weight loss. So, while these drugs might help, they're not a silver bullet. Johann also emphasizes the need to tackle the social causes of obesity. It's not just about popping a pill. We need to rethink our relationship with food and our bodies. We talk about the evolutionary reasons why our bodies hoard fat, the food industry's role in pushing sugar-laden products, and the emotional aspects of eating. Magic Pill isn't just another book on weight loss - it's a thought-provoking exploration of our modern health dilemmas. Johann's blend of personal experience, thorough research, and engaging storytelling makes this book a must-read. Whether you're curious about the science behind these new drugs or their cultural impact, Johann provides a comprehensive guide to understanding this health revolution. With that he also the author of sone of my favorite books: Stolen Focus - Why You Can't Pay Attention - And How To Think Deeply Again, Lost Connections, and Chasing The Scream.

Takeaways Weight loss drugs can offer significant benefits in terms of health outcomes, particularly for those who are severely obese. The rise of obesity is linked to the shift from whole foods to processed and ultra-processed foods. Diets often fail in the long term due to biological changes that make it harder to maintain weight loss. While weight loss drugs can be a solution, addressing the social causes of obesity is crucial for long-term change. There is a need for regulation and careful consideration of the risks and benefits of weight loss drugs. Human beings evolved in an environment where famine was a frequent threat, so our bodies are programmed to store fat. This makes it difficult to reverse obesity. The food industry and our craving for sugar contribute to the obesity crisis.  Cultural and societal changes, such as promoting healthy eating habits and providing nutritious food in schools, are crucial in addressing the obesity crisis.

On this show, we talk a lot about ways to stop the interpersonal and intrapersonal violence of obsessing about thinness. Today's episode, though, is a bit of a departure… because this whole dynamic and debate has been deeply disrupted by the advent of Ozempic and other new weight loss drugs, which are technically called GLP1s. This is a controversial and touchy subject, to say the least. Journalist and best-selling author Johann Hari discusses his latest book Magic Pill: The Extraordinary Benefits and Disturbing Risks of the New Weight-Loss Drugs. He believes drugs like Ozempic are the equivalent of the invention of the iPhone – and will impact all of our lives, whether we like it or not, and whether we take them or not. And in Magic Pill, Hari – who somewhat ambivalently takes Ozempic himself – marinates in the complexity of all of this. This is Hari's third time on the show. He has come on before to discuss his books on distraction and depression—entitled Stolen Focus and Lost Connections.This is the latest episode of our Get Fit Sanely series. This is the third time we've done Get Fit Sanely, and in this go-round, we'll be covering longevity, exercise, and the Buddhist case for laziness.

“I realized I think there's a few things that are in our heads that are so deep in the culture. One of them is the idea that being overweight is a sin. It goes right back to if you look at Pope Gregory I in the 6th century when he first formulates the seven deadly sins, gluttony is there, it's always depicted with some fat person who looks monstrous, overeating. And how do we think about sin? If being overweight is a sin, we think sin requires punishment before you get to redemption. The only forms of weight loss that we admire are where you suffer horribly, right? You think about The Biggest Loser, that horrid, disgusting game show. If you go through agony, if you starve yourself, if you do extreme forms of exercise that devastate your body, then we'll go, he suffered. We forgive you. Well done. We'll let you be thin now, right?” So says Johann Hari, author of many bestselling books—Stolen Focus, Lost Connections, and Chasing the Scream. Johann is a fellow cultural psychic and his latest book—the subject of today's conversation—bears this out. He takes on drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro in Magic Pill: The Extraordinary Benefits and Disturbing Risks of the New Weight-Loss Drugs. He also writes about his own relationship to these drugs, as Johann is taking them. His book is a subtle and sensitive navigation of what is a tightly bound convergence of health and culture—and every page of his book anticipates and precedes the conversation. (As a disclaimer, I'm in it.) We talk about all  of it in today's conversation, along with what would have happened if a woman had written this book first.

Johann Hari is back on the podcast today and he looks completely different to the last time I saw him. He's lost an incredible amount of weight, his face looks completely different and it's all because of a drug you've probably already heard of. Ozempic.Also known as GLP-1 agonists, these drugs were initially used by doctors like myself in General Practice for type 2 diabetics, but have now found a use case to treat obesity.For over a year, Johann has been self treating with the drugs and diving into the history of how these drugs were discovered and utilised. From the lab to the pharmaceutical companies & the doctors surgery to the popular pages of celebrity gossip columns; Johann tells the full story without shying away from the potentially dangerous reality of the sideffects and risks of these popular medications.We talk about:What Ozepmic and similar drugs do to your brain and gutHow it impacts addiction to food and other substancesWhat the potential risks are including cancer, pancreatitis and bowel obstructionWhy UPF and obesity are the main concernYou can purchase Johann's newest book, ‘Magic Pill: The Extraordinary Benefits and Disturbing Risks of the New Weight Loss Drugs', available on 2nd May 2024, here: https://amzn.to/3Ulz2UB Johann Hari is a New York Times best-selling author, his books include, ‘Chasing the Scream', ‘Lost Connections', and ‘Stolen Focus'. He has written for the world's leading newspapers and magazines, and has twice been named ‘National Newspaper Journalist of the Year' by Amnesty International.

Johann Hari (bestselling author Stolen Focus and Lost Connections) has written another system-rattling book, this time about the new weight loss drugs that everyone is both talking about AND not talking about. I've been wanting a wild mind to come chat about the phenomenon for over a year. Johann happened to reach out and tell me he'd been experimenting with Ozempic, had travelled the world interviewing 100-plus experts on the matter and was up for a chat. In this conversation, we talk through what he lays out in his book Magic Pill: The Extraordinary Benefits and Disturbing Risks of the New Weight-Loss Drugs. We cover how the drugs work on our biology; the emerging risks; how the rich are the guinea pigs in this particular science experiment; the implications of a world with no appetite (“What will become of the dinner party?”); and the fact these drugs mask the real problem – how Big Food manipulates our hormones with their Franken-foods. And, so, here we are again, told to fix a systemic problem with the same mindset that caused it in the first place (ie: manipulating nature with additives for profit). The Ozempic debate is a lot.

It is being called a miracle drug, but what is the dark side to the weight loss medication Ozempic? Johann Hari is a New York Times best-selling author, his books include, ‘Chasing the Scream', ‘Lost Connections', and ‘Stolen Focus'. He has written for the world's leading newspapers and magazines, and has twice been named ‘National Newspaper Journalist of the Year' by Amnesty International. In this conversation Johann and Steven discuss topics such as, the link between weight gain and sexual abuse, what Ozempic does to the brain, how Japan will help solve the obesity crisis, and the 12 biggest risks of taking Ozempic. 00:00 Intro 01:46 How Did You Find Out About Ozempic 06:37 What Is Ozempic & How Much Is It? 09:51 How Does Ozempic Work 16:03 The Impact of Ozempic on the Brain 26:17 The Cheesecake Park Experiment 31:16 Obesity Is a Choice 44:53 Addiction Transfer 52:25 Obesogenic Environment 01:04:55 Where Can You Buy Ozempic 01:07:43 The Origins of Ozempic 01:10:15 Why You Shouldn't Take It 01:13:56 Is The Ozempic Face Real? 01:18:08 The Risk of Muscle Loss 01:20:36 Suicide Risk and Fatalities 01:29:49 How Do We Undo Stress 01:30:01 Diabetes Is More Deadly Than Weight Loss Drugs 01:32:24 Downsides 01:39:21 Will Everyone Be on Ozempic? 01:42:47 Should the Government Intervene? 01:50:46 Weight Gain After Ozempic 01:53:59 Children and Ozempic 01:57:21 Celebrities Taking Ozempic and Hiding the Truth 02:05:37 Ozempic Is An Addiction Killer! 02:12:34 Oprah Taking About Her Losing Weight Journey 02:15:03 Will People Exercise Less If They Can Just Take Ozempic 02:18:58 High Demand Of Ozempic & Issues Caused 02:23:10 The Last Guest Question You can purchase Johann's newest book, ‘Magic Pill: The Extraordinary Benefits and Disturbing Risks of the New Weight Loss Drugs', available on 2nd May 2024, here: https://amzn.to/4di51Ou Follow Johann: Instagram - https://bit.ly/4bfqkyj Twitter - https://bit.ly/44ixqjd YouTube - https://bit.ly/3Uzccdr Watch the episodes on Youtube - https://g2ul0.app.link/3kxINCANKsb My new book!

Fluent Fiction - Korean: Seoul's Dialect Reunion: Rediscovering Lost Connections Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.org/seouls-dialect-reunion-rediscovering-lost-connections Story Transcript:Ko: 전혀 예상치 못한 이야기의 씨앗은 가장 평범한 순간에서 피어난다. 지훈은 서울의 크고 번화한 도시, 강남에 위치한 그의 카페에서 일상적으로 커피를 내리고 있었다. 수진, 그의 고등학교 동창이었던 그녀는 또한 다른 테이블에 앉아서 그의 모습을 바라보고 있었다.En: The seeds of completely unexpected stories bloom from the most ordinary moments. Jihun was brewing coffee as usual in his cafe located in Gangnam, a large and bustling area of Seoul. Su-jin, his high school classmate, was also sitting at another table, watching him.Ko: 때마침, 낯선 손님으로부터 케익 주문이 들어왔다. 그러나 문제는, 그의 말투가 특정 지방의 굵직한 방언이었다는 것이다.En: At that moment, an unfamiliar customer placed an order for cake. The problem was that his way of speaking was a distinct regional dialect.Ko: "신랑님이 바람 맞으러 와서 신부씨는 케익 주문하러 왔소이다." 고개를 메어지게 그 선생님은 물었다. 지훈은 당황했다. 그의 무늬방언은 경상도의 말투와 비슷하다고 생각했지만, 그들이 말하는 것을 이해하는 것은 큰 도전이었다.En: "My husband has come to enjoy the breeze, so the bride is here to order the cake." Tilting his head, the customer asked. Jihun was bewildered. He thought his mild dialect was similar to the Gyeongsang-do accent, but understanding what they were saying proved to be a challenge.Ko: 수진은 어딘가에서 들어본 것 같은 그 남자의 방언을 듣고 왠지 모르게 끌렸다. 그녀는 갑자기 민호의 얼굴을 떠올렸다; 그녀가 대학 시절에 만났던 그 사람, 그분은 경상도 남부에서 왔었다.En: Su-jin found herself strangely drawn to the man's dialect, which sounded familiar to her from somewhere. Suddenly, she remembered Minho's face; the man she had met in college who hailed from southern Gyeongsang-do.Ko: 그녀가 일어나 당황한 지훈에게 다가가, 지훈이 그의 주문을 올바르게 이해하게 도왔다. 평소에는 잘 사용하지 않던 수진의 경상도 방언이 그날 딱 맞았다.En: Approaching the perplexed Jihun, Su-jin helped him understand the order correctly. On that day, Su-jin's rarely used Gyeongsang-do dialect suited the occasion perfectly.Ko: 그 일로 인해 사람들 사이의 갈등은 해결되었고, 수진과 지훈은 다시 기억을 회상했다. 그들은 갑자기 민호에 대해 웃고 이야기하다가 간닷편 민호를 찾아 평생을 놓질 않기로 약속했다. 결론적으로 언어의 장벽은 그들이 잃어버렸던 그 사람을 찾지 않는데 방해가 되지 않았다. 그들의 서울 오디세이는 미스테리를 해결하고 잃어버렸던 우정을 다시 찾는 따뜻한 마무리로 끝났다.En: The incident resolved tensions between people, and Su-jin and Jihun reminisced. They suddenly laughed and talked about Minho, agreeing to find and never lose touch with him. Ultimately, the language barrier did not hinder them from finding the person they had lost. Their Seoul odyssey ended with a warm conclusion of solving a mystery and rediscovering a lost friendship.

Johann Hari is a British-Swiss author and journalist, known for his books and his articles in The Independent and Huffington Post. Since 2015, his writing has primarily dealt with the war on drugs, mental illness, and decreasing attention spans. His books on these subjects include Chasing the Scream: The First and Last Days of the War on Drugs, Lost Connections, and Stolen Focus.In this conversation, Johann and I talk about the variables vying for our attention and their effects on society. Though Johann mentions twelve variables in his book, we focus primarily on social media. Johann and I offer observations of people addicted to technology, and we discuss evidence-based ways to combat this problem. Additionally, we speak about algorithms and their incentives to keep users "angry and scrolling." Finally, we take the conversation to the implications our shortened attention spans have on interpersonal relationships, political participation, and democracy.More from Johann:Books: https://johannhari.com/Ted Talks: https://www.ted.com/search?q=johann%20hariWatch this episode on YouTube.

"Junk food has taken over our diets, and it is making millions of people physically sick. A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that something similar is happening with our minds — that they have become dominated by junk values, and this is making us mentally sick, triggering soaring rates of depression and anxiety.”  - Johann HariOn today's episode, Ruby and I discuss our own junk values and compare these to the values we're striving to live by now. We try to understand why it's so hard to do what feels right in a world dominated by success porn (hi LinkedIn), and wonder whether we've set the bar too high - do we need to lower our expectations of life in order to be happier?Links to books & articles discussed: Lost Connections by Johann Hari: https://www.amazon.com.au/Lost-Connections-Uncovering-Depression-Unexpected/dp/163286830XLA TIMES - We know junk food makes us sick.

In this episode of 'Marketing Your Practice,' we turn our focus towards a key aspect of growing your chiropractic business: reactivating patients who have dropped out of care. As practitioners, we've all faced the challenge of patients who discontinue treatment, often for reasons we can address and improve. Join me as we delve into the top three reasons why patients cease care: 1) they didn't see the expected results, 2) they achieved their desired results and chose not to pursue ongoing wellness care, and 3) life got busy and they got distracted from their care routine. More importantly, we explore proactive, practical solutions to re-engage these patients, with a strong emphasis on actionable strategies. This episode is a must-listen for chiropractors seeking to boost their patient retention, foster stronger relationships, and create a positive impact on their patient's lives through continued chiropractic care. If you've ever wondered how to bring back patients who have left your care, you'll find answers and more in this episode. Tune in and let's rekindle those patient connections! Thanks for all you do. Keep saving lives. AngusSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A powerful study on human connection showed that lack of connection can be as stressful as a fight! When we take that to our interactions with our kids, who as teenagers need to disconnect at a certain level from family and form those new connections, their own tribe, helping them make connections and come back to connections they have can be such a powerful tool. I think we all know the power of connection at some level, but it can be so easy to overlook. We all need the reminder sometimes to check the connection… with our kids and ourselves. Resource for this episode: Lost Connections by Johann Hari This book does talk about depression, but it is applicable in so many areas of life as we connect with our kids.

We live in a disconnected world—increasingly alienated from ourselves and our bodies, from the natural world, and from others. Much of this disconnection is catalyzed by hyper-individualism which sets self-expression above self-transcendence. This episode is about encountering the seeming intelligence of the universe which seems to be constantly inviting us into a life of deep connection. Along the way, we explore the world of trees, bees, and other stunning examples of interdepdence in the world around us, and the miracles of our mindbody wiring. What emerges is a pathway to transcending isolation and disconnection in favor of an entirely connected way of being alive as a human being.  

Warning: Today's episode contains strong languageI'm chatting with Johann Hari today, the international bestselling author of ‘Chasing the Scream', ‘Lost Connections' and the latest book ‘Stolen Focus'. Today's conversation is fascinating. I often find myself opening tabs and not remembering why I opened it, or walking out of my house and having to remind myself why I'm leaving. I naturally assumed it was just me. Overworking and undersleeping is bound to have this effect, but there appears to be something more insidious going on as Johann explains in todays episode. And if you're like me, you're definitely not alone.There are 5 core ideas that we explore today:One: Your attention didn't collapse - it was stolen.Two: If your Screentime shows that you spend more than three hours a day on your phone, then you are losing far more than just time. Your brain can only produce one or two thoughts in your conscious mind at once. We're very, very single-minded.Three: The covid crisis has flipped many of us into a state called hypervigilance, which is ruining our focus.Four: The way we eat in the Western world is severely damaging our attention and focus.Five: We can only get out of this crisis if we respond as individuals, by making changes in our own lives and our children's lives, to protect ourselves from forces invading our attention. But we also need to campaign for more humane technology, forcing them to adopt a different business model that isn't reliant on interrupting, distracting and monetising our attention.We talk about:Our ‘attentional pathogenic culture'Switch cost effectsTapping into flow statesReading as a gym for empathyUniversal basic incomeAnd of course, technology

Five positive life-impacting statements that inspired and encouraged me and continue to give me a kick in the pants I need sometimes.“Those who have a 'why' to live, can bear with almost any 'how.'” – Viktor E. Frankl quoting Friedrich Nietzsche in Man's Search for Meaning“There is no shortcut. There is no hack. There's only one way. So, get after it.” – Jocko Willink, Discipline Equals Freedom Field Manual.“Well, why don't you just do it afraid?” – Joyce Meyer quoting a friend of hers.“We have an opportunity to make health so central that we have ample resources to help the downtrodden, the fallen, and the frail.” – James Geering, One More Light.“It is only when we listen to our pain that we can follow it back to its source…” – Johann Hari, Lost Connections.

Welcome to episode #873 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #873. I have been struggling with my attention and focus. I have noticed the same issues with the younger people in my life. I'm seeing teenagers scroll TikTok (with no volume) like it's a fidget spinner, and adults who can't interact with others without their iPhones being involved. This could be one of the most important conversations about our present (and future) that I have ever had (not exaggerating). Meet Johann Hari, a three-time New York Times best-selling author and Executive Producer of an Oscar-nominated movie and a star-studded TV series. His writing has been praised by icons like Oprah, Noam Chomsky, Elton John, Naomi Klein, and more. His last book Stolen Focus - Why You Can't Pay Attention took the world by storm in 2022. Garnering multiple awards and accolades, it became a best-seller across three continents... and was, without a doubt, my favorite book of the year. He is also the author of, Chasing the Scream and Lost Connections. With close to 100 million views, Johann's TED Talks are a must-watch. Stolen Focus is an incredibly relevant and essential read in today's fast-paced digital age. The book delves into the root causes of our dwindling attention spans and offers insights into how we can reclaim our ability to focus. This well-researched book uncovers the consequences of this information overload on our mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. We are in this attention crisis. How do we make conscious choices and reclaim our focus, ultimately paving the way for a more attentive and productive society? Listen in. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 1:05:40.

This Week on Dopey! Back for his second appearance on the show is journalist & multiple New York Times bestselling author Johann Hari, who, when confronted with his own deteriorating attention span, dove deep into the individual and systemic solutions to this dispiriting collective trend. Johann has written for the LA Times, Le Monde, and many other outlets, has two of the most-watched TED Talks, and has been profiled in essentially every prominent media outlet. His books include Chasing The Scream and Lost Connections, which explores the roots of addiction, and was the subject of our first exchange back on episode #416. But today, he's here to share big lessons from his latest book, Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention, which is a provoking journey into the forces robbing us of our attention and a look at how we might begin to reclaim our minds, and our lives. PLUS Loz from the amazing addiction/recovery Instagram meme page Brutal Recovery talking about how she copes with being a super popular memer, her sobriety and how her signature move in a pub brawl was to throw chairs! PLUS Dopey a voicemail, email and much much more on this all new 399th addition of that good ol' Dopey show! More about Dopey: Dopey Podcast is the world's greatest podcast on drugs, addiction and dumb shit. Chris and I were two IV heroin addicts who loved to talk about all the coke we smoked, snorted and shot, all the pills we ate, smoked, all the weed we smoked and ate, all the booze we consumed and all the consequences we suffered. After making the show for 2 and a half years, Chris tragically relapsed and died from a fentanyl overdose. Dopey continued on, at first to mourn the horrible loss of Chris, but then to continue our mission - which was at its core, to keep addicts and alcoholics company. Whether to laugh at our time in rehab, or cry at the worst missteps we made, Dopey tells the truth about drugs, addiction and recovery.

This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Chuck and Sam are joined by Abe Hamadeh, Republican candidate for Arizona Attorney General. Later in the show, award winning filmmaker Jeff Hays joins us to bring the story of the real Anthony Fauci. -Abraham is an intelligence officer in the U.S. Army Reserve and just returned from a 14 month long deployment to Saudi Arabia. On behalf of the United States Army, Abraham negotiated military sales and managed the training for Saudi Arabia's domestic security forces both in the Kingdom and in the United States. He implemented the first of its kind new enhanced security vetting in response to the 2019 Pensacola terrorist attack. His direct counterparts were generals, colonels, and lieutenant colonels in the Saudi forces as well as high ranking civilians in their respective ministries. Abraham's awards include the Meritorious Service Medal, Army Achievement Medal, Gold German Armed Forces Proficiency Badge, and Overseas Service Ribbon among others.Abraham is a former prosecutor of the Maricopa County Attorney's Office. Abraham has appeared in court to prosecute criminals, uphold victims' rights, and seek justice for the community. Abraham earned his undergraduate degree in Political Science from Arizona State University and earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Arizona College of Law. During his law studies, Abraham was awarded the Udall Fellowship by the Arizona Prosecuting Attorneys' Advisory Council which placed him at the city, county, state, and federal prosecutor offices.-Jeff Hays, an award winning filmmaker and television producer since the early nineties, gained national attention with Fahrenhype 9/11 (2004), a response to Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11.  He followed that with On Native Soil (2006). Narrated by Kevin Costner and Hilary Swank, the documentary focused on the perspective of surviving family members of 9/11 victims and their efforts to create the 9/11 Commission.  The film was acquired by Lions Gate and NBC and was short-listed for an Academy Award.Hays produced a yearlong television series for Lifetime Television, and then returned to documentary film with Doctored in 2012, and Bought in 2014.In 2017, Jeff partnered with Dr. Patrick Gentempo to create Revealed Films. and together, they have released nine multi-part series covering subjects including, health and nutrition, medical issues, wealth- building, religious and political topics.  (Money Revealed, Wine Revealed, Christ Revealed, Supplements Revealed, GMOs Revealed, and Vaccines Revealed,etc.)  Revealed Films launches 3-4 series each year adding the rich stream of information they've produced in the past. Revealed is currently finishing a series on the use of  psychedelics in therapy called Mind If I Wake You Up, and filming for a new series on marriage and relationships.In addition to the Revealed projects Jeff Hays Films was the Executive Producer for The Fix, a documentary series based on Johann Hari's NY Times bestseller, Chasing the Scream.

For more ways to manage depression check out my course, Change Your Brain: 10 Natural, Research-Backed Ways to Improve Mental Health https://courses.therapyinanutshell.com/change-your-brain Or my other courses and free resources here: https://courses.therapyinanutshell.com/?utm_medium=YTDescription&utm_source=podcast A chemical imbalance is not “The Cause” of depression. We have been systematically misinformed about what depression and anxiety are”. This is the main idea behind Johann Hari's bestselling book lost connections. I recently finished it, and even though I didn't completely agree with his conclusion, I thoroughly enjoyed his detailed, evidence-based tear-down of the overly-simplistic idea that "chemical imbalance causes depression". What if the causes of depression are much more complicated than we thought? What if it's not a chemical imbalance, but a combination of factors, especially what's going on around us? And inside us. For some people who have a limited understanding of the causes of depression, moving away from the simple chemical imbalance theory sounds like heresy, but before recording this video I shared the script with 3 professionals I trust, a Doctor, a psychiatric nurse practitioner, and a psychiatrist, and all three of them said “Isn't this basically the Bio-Psycho-Social Model?”. The bio-psycho-social model is a well understood and commonly accepted approach to mental health that conceptualizes the causes of mental illness as being an interplay of Biology, psychology (how you think) and society (your experiences, your environment). But I'm making this video because many members of the public have never heard of it. Looking for affordable online counseling?

In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction.
