Christmas is one of the most triggering times of the year, bringing both celebration and danger. This episode summarizes the core strategies from the 5-part "Christmas Clean" series, providing five top, practical tips to ensure you stay clean through the holidays and launch into the New Year with momentum. The key goal is to avoid the common pattern of accruing significant "debt" (relapses/slips) over Christmas, which can be so large that even the New Year's momentum isn't enough to overcome it. By staying clean now, you can enter a "surplus" in January, allowing you to build something meaningful and sustainable.   Know more about Sathiya's work: Join Deep Clean Inner Circle - The Brotherhood You Neeed (+ get coached by Sathiya) For Less Than $2/day Submit Your Questions (Anonymously) To Be Answered On The Podcast Get A Free Copy of The Last Relapse, Your Blueprint For Recovery Watch Sathiya on Youtube For More Content Like This   Chapters: (00:14) Introduction: Christmas—Triggering Time with Dangers.

In this episode of SoundPractice, Matthew Mazurek, MD, assistant professor of anesthesiology at Yale School of Medicine discusses his new book, Sexual Misconduct, Harassment, and Discrimination in Healthcare by the AAPL. Mazurek reveals sexual misconduct in healthcare occurs on multiple levels: - Confidential surveys show the problem remains significantly underreported. - Social media has created new avenues for inappropriate behavior, particularly among younger staff members. - Healthcare workers face harassment from patients more frequently than in other STEM fields due to physical touching and power dynamics. For healthcare leaders conducting investigations, Mazurek recommends: - Use two-person interview teams to avoid "he said, she said" situations while preventing respondents from feeling ganged up on. - Strip away who is telling the story and focus objectively on what happened. - Involve risk management early in high-stakes cases. - Maintain consistency in questioning and look for corroboration. Reality check: Lack of standardization across 50 state medical boards contributes to delays in addressing misconduct, with some physicians maintaining long histories of violations before consequences. Mazurek emphasizes prevention over investigation expertise: - Leadership must model appropriate behavior — executives engaging in misconduct set a tone of tolerance. - Training programs should use case studies in small groups to help staff feel the emotional impact, not just understand it intellectually. - Address microaggressions through comprehensive education on bias and stereotypes. - Create policies expressly covering social media interactions with colleagues as part of the work environment. The bottom line: Healthcare organizations must balance their duty to provide safe environments for staff with their obligation to care for patients, even when patient behavior crosses lines.

Based on a popular well known Christmas carol this episode reminds us about prescribing thoughtfully, recognising key red flags, and keeping often-missed diagnoses like bile acid diarrhoea, coeliac disease and liver disease on the radar. The episode also reinforces the importance of early-life microbiome influences and structured differential diagnosis for abdominal symptoms in primary care. Prescribing and de-prescribing • Taper PPIs rather than stopping abruptly to avoid rebound acid hypersecretion, driven by upregulated gastrin during PPI therapy. • Always link NSAID use and H. pylori status to ulcer risk, and remember: gastric ulcers typically cause pain with meals, duodenal ulcers 2–3 hours after eating. Diagnosis, tests and red flags • Use three coeliac test “groups”: serology (tTG/EMA, with total IgA checked), genetics (HLA‑DQ2/DQ8) and duodenal biopsies; ensure patients eat gluten for at least six weeks pre‑testing and to endoscopy. • Actively screen for GI red flags: dysphagia and weight loss (upper GI), PR bleeding and unexplained iron‑deficiency anaemia (lower GI), and escalate for urgent investigation. Practical tools and endoscopy indications • Use the Bristol Stool Chart (types 1–7) routinely in consultations to standardise conversations about stool form and avoid ambiguous “food analogies.” • Remember the three main indications for endoscopy: diagnostic (e.g. dyspepsia, chronic diarrhoea), surveillance (Barrett's, polyp follow‑up) and therapeutic (RFA/EMR in Barrett's, polyp removal). Conditions to consider and not miss • Keep bile acid diarrhoea prominent in the differential for IBS‑D: up to ~40% of IBS‑D patients may have it, particularly with ileal disease/resection, Crohn's, or post‑cholecystectomy. • Maintain a broad GI bleeding differential beyond cancer (e.g. gastritis, peptic ulcer, Mallory–Weiss tear, haemorrhoids/fissures, liver disease/coagulopathy, IBD, angiodysplasia, diverticular disease). Liver disease, microbiome and early life • Remember major causes of liver failure in primary care: excess alcohol, paracetamol overdose, DILI, autoimmune hepatitis, Wilson's disease, haemochromatosis, viral hepatitis B/C and progressive MASLD. • Support breastfeeding where possible to promote a healthy infant microbiome (HMOs favouring bifidobacteria) and recognise how birth mode and early microbes shape immune development and later allergy/immune risk. Structuring abdominal symptom assessment • For undifferentiated abdominal symptoms, consciously work through a core list: IBS, lactose intolerance, coeliac disease, gastroenteritis, SIBO, IBD, diverticular disease, colorectal cancer, peptic ulcer disease, gallstones/biliary colic, pancreatic insufficiency and medication‑related causes (e.g. metformin, NSAIDs, antibiotics). • Use these categories to guide targeted history, examination, basic tests and thresholds for referral back to gastroenterology or specialist services.

You've set goals before and watched them fall apart six months later. Maybe you thought you had a solid foundation. Maybe you didn't. I'm pulling from 25 years of coaching experience and thousands of hours working with people just like you. What I've learned is this: you need a peaceful base before you chase any goal. Six domains of life that have to be balanced first, or everything crumbles. Think of it like an audio console. Get the levels wrong at the start, and everything downstream is a mess. Get them right, and you can reach for anything. Featured Story My daughter invited me to help with the audio at her church. I produce, I direct, I've got the background. So I stepped in. When you're the audio guy behind that big console, two things are true. You get all the blame. And if you lose control of the balance, you're in serious trouble. Every service starts the same way. You've got 8, 10, 12 people on stage. The very first thing I do is set the foundation - the input levels for every mic, every instrument. Get that wrong, and everything downstream falls apart. Feedback, hot mess, scary stuff. I started thinking about how this applies to life. What if we got the levels right from the beginning? What if we balanced everything before chasing the big goals? That's when the peaceful base concept clicked. Important Points Most people fail at goals because their foundation has cracks they don't even know about. Six domains need balance: time, body, mind, money, relationships, and spirit - in that order. Get these levels right first, and you can chase the biggest goals without upsetting your peaceful base. Memorable Quotes "Time is yours. It's limited in what you have. There's only so much time in the day, and everything you do will take time." "Financial security provides true choice. It's mobility in life." "Connections that are nurtured, not sacrificed." Scott's Three-Step Approach Take inventory of the six domains and identify where you're out of balance right now. Fix the small challenges first before setting any big goals for next year. Maintain that peaceful base as you grow so you don't mess up what you've got.

Most men think success with women is about attraction. It isn't. Attraction is common. Long-term harmony is rare. We break down why men consistently overestimate their competence with women, how limited exposure and distorted environments create false confidence, and why real relational skill only reveals itself over time. This is a practical discussion on character, behavioral patterns, and the massive gap between initial attraction and sustained harmony with a high-level woman.   KEY MOMENTS 07:42 – Why attraction is common but harmony filters most men 21:18 – How habits and repeated behavior lock in male identity 39:55 – Why real relationship skill can't be learned from clips or theory

Introduction Is artificial intelligence the next investment gold rush—or are we watching another government-subsidized bubble inflate before our eyes? With Ford Motor Company writing down $19.5 billion on electric vehicles and tech giants pouring hundreds of billions into AI infrastructure, investors over 50 face a critical question: how do you separate genuine opportunity from dangerous speculation? In this episode of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree, Mike Johnson, and James Dupree examine the dramatic collapse of EV investments and the explosive growth in AI and data center buildouts. Drawing on research from Dupree Financial Group’s six-person investment committee—including direct calls with data center developers—they reveal how to evaluate hot investment trends without getting burned. With 47 years of investment experience, Tom brings hard-earned skepticism to separate sustainable opportunities from the kind of government-backed disasters that just shut down Kentucky’s Blue Oval battery plant. Ford’s $19.5 Billion EV Disaster: A Cautionary Tale Kentucky’s Battery Plant Shuts Down Ford Motor Company shocked investors with a $19.5 billion write-down on its electric vehicle business, abandoning ambitious plans for full-size EVs like the Ford Lightning pickup truck. The casualty? Kentucky’s Glendale Blue Oval Plant near Elizabethtown—once promised to employ 5,000 workers—has laid off all 1,500 current employees indefinitely. “Ford takes a 19 and a half billion dollars write down on their EV business,” Mike Johnson reported. “Essentially they are getting away from full-size electric vehicles.” Tom Dupree had predicted this outcome over a year ago: “I think it might be that guy named Tom Dupree who said a year and a half ago that that thing would never happen.” Government Mandates vs. Market Demand The Blue Oval failure illustrates a critical investment principle: government subsidies create artificial markets that collapse when support ends. “All of this was coming from government mandates. This was not driven by market demand for electric vehicles,” Mike explained. “The demand was not there because the infrastructure is not there yet. It was this heavy hand of government forcing the market to accept this product that they didn’t want.” What went wrong: Political mandates drove investment, not consumer demand EV infrastructure remains inadequate for mass adoption Manufacturing costs exceeded profitable pricing When subsidies decreased, the business model collapsed Why Toyota Won and Ford Lost While Ford chased government EV subsidies, Toyota focused on hybrid technology—matching actual consumer readiness and avoiding financial catastrophe. “You know who didn’t do that? Toyota,” Mike noted. “Toyota was focusing on hybrid. That was their core focus. And so they’re not taking a 19 and a half billion dollars write down.” Investment lesson for retirees: Companies building products consumers actually want—rather than products governments mandate—create sustainable returns. From Battery Hype to AI Hype: History Repeating? The 18-Month Investment Shift “A year and a half ago it was all about batteries,” Tom observed. “Look up some of these battery stocks, James. I bet a lot of ’em are just in the doldrums.” The investment landscape shifted with stunning speed from battery plant euphoria to AI infrastructure mania. The question: is AI different, or are investors making the same mistake twice? Inside Dupree Financial Group’s Data Center Research James Dupree coordinates research for the firm’s six-person investment committee, scheduling calls with company management and conducting initial analysis. The entire committee recently participated in a research call with Applied Digital, a data center developer leasing facilities to tech giants. “We talked about Applied Digital on the last show,” James explained. “They’re the data center landlord. They build and rent out the data centers.” The Hyperscaler Spending Analysis James’s research revealed critical distinctions between sustainable AI investment and dangerous speculation. “The first thing that the guy showed us was he pulled up a list of the hyperscalers—Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, Oracle, OpenAI, all these guys,” James reported. “And he was showing their sales and then he told us how much they’re gonna spend.” James’s assessment: “Amazon good, Microsoft good, Meta okay—they’re kind of getting on that bubble where they’re spending a little bit too much. Meta does 160 billion in sales and they’re supposed to spend 70 billion,” James detailed. “And then where it really gets dicey is Oracle. They do 50 billion in sales and they’re supposed to spend 500 billion. So that’s a red alert there.” This granular analysis—comparing capital spending to revenue—separates professional investment management from amateur speculation chasing headlines. Data Centers: Real Demand or Another Subsidy Bubble? The Power Shortage Reality Unlike EVs, data centers address a genuine infrastructure shortage: 40-90 gigawatts of power capacity needed in the United States. What makes data centers potentially valuable: Legitimate power shortage driving demand Long-term triple-net leases (Applied Digital secured 15-year, $11 billion lease) Potential conversion to REITs for steady income The critical risk—chip obsolescence: “Inside that data center, you’ll literally have $3 billion in chips in that building,” Mike explained. “And right now we don’t know exactly what the useful life of those chips are. Who’s gonna take the liability if these things only have a use life of three years instead of five years?” Government Involvement: Red Flag or Validation? James reported recent news about Core Weave, Applied Digital’s anchor tenant: “Core Weave had some big news today. That stock’s up 23% on the news. The government came out and said that they would be a part of a program related to energy, so the government’s backing that company.” But Tom immediately questioned the parallel to Ford’s disaster: “I kind of have a problem with governments picking winners and losers. That’s something that the Democrats were known as doing, and now the Republicans are doing it.” Examples of government market intervention failing: MP Materials: Government backing, stock dropped from $50+ to $15 Intel: Massive subsidies, uncertain outcomes Kentucky’s Blue Oval Plant: Complete shutdown after enormous investment Tom Dupree’s Investment Skepticism: The Voice of Experience Learning from 47 Years of Market Cycles Tom’s experience provides essential counterbalance to research enthusiasm about hot new sectors. “People are suckers for deals. If they think something’s hot, they jump on it, buy into it. They don’t spend much time thinking about whether it’s feasible or not,” Tom cautioned. “Two and a half years ago people were all over the battery plant thing. It was never gonna work. It was all just hype.” Historic bubbles Tom has witnessed: Dot-com crash (2000-2002) Housing bubble (2008) Battery/EV hype (2022-2024) Potentially: AI overinvestment (2024-?) The “Bigger Money, Bigger Dummies” Principle Tom’s most provocative observation challenges assumptions about tech giant spending: “If the seven largest companies are putting all this money in it, do you think they’re gonna go to zero? No, but the bigger the money, the bigger the dummies sometimes,” Tom warned. “They follow each other. If so-and-so’s doing it, we gotta do it. That’s FOMO. They don’t wanna get left behind.” The Picks and Shovels Strategy Rather than betting on which AI platform wins, Tom advocates investing in essential infrastructure. “I think you invest in not the project itself, but in the people that surround the project—selling picks and shovels to the gold miners,” Tom explained. “Levi’s sold workwear to the gold miners and they became a much bigger company than the gold miners ever did.” Modern picks and shovels: Cooling system manufacturers (like Vertiv) Power infrastructure companies Industrial automation suppliers Data center construction firms The Investment Committee Advantage How Six Perspectives Beat One This episode revealed Dupree Financial Group’s collaborative research process—a six-person investment committee evaluating every opportunity. “What I think is really interesting about this entire conversation is the listeners have gotten a snapshot of why, how we research companies. What information comes out of research, questions asked, and then you get the snapshot of Tom shooting holes through it.” The committee process: Research coordination (James schedules calls, conducts initial analysis) Committee participation (All six members join company calls) Analytical framework (Mike examines spending ratios, cash flow) Devil’s advocate (Tom stress-tests with historical perspective) Risk-based sizing (Committee determines appropriate positions) “With any investment, you identify what the risks are,” Mike explained. “And when you identify the risks, then you can make a better decision as to, okay, does the potential reward justify those risks? That’s why these are small positions in the portfolio, but they serve a purpose in the overall grand scheme.” Market Discipline: Encouraging Signs Investors Punishing Excessive Spending Unlike past bubbles where markets rewarded unlimited capital deployment, current market behavior shows healthy skepticism. Recent examples: Meta’s stock rewarded for reducing metaverse spending Oracle’s stock punished for excessive debt-fueled AI investments Market demands cash-flow funding, not leverage “What was scary is when the market just didn’t care,” Mike noted. “That’s when you get major issues with bubbles and speculation. And now you’re starting to see some discernment there.” Warning Signs to Watch

Maintaining Muscle Mass as You Age: Is Muscle Loss Inevitable? Have you noticed it's a little harder to get out of a chair… or your car… or maybe open a stubborn jar? You're not imagining things. Muscle loss—known medically as sarcopenia—can begin as early as your 30s and accelerates with age. But here's the good news: it's not inevitable, and it's certainly not too late to do something about it. In this episode, we head to mini medical school to break down what sarcopenia is, why it happens, when it typically starts, and why it matters for your strength, balance, independence, and long-term health. We'll talk hormones, protein (and why it's not magic), anabolic resistance, and the real-life signs of muscle loss you may already recognize. Most importantly, you'll learn practical, evidence-based strategies to maintain—and even rebuild—muscle as you age through balanced nutrition, resistance training, and consistent movement. No extremes. No perfection. Just real-world habits that work. Plus, I'm sharing details about the upcoming Healthy Looks Great on You Lab, a private community launching January 5th where we turn podcast knowledge into real-life results—together. Aging is inevitable. Losing strength doesn't have to be. And healthy?  Healthy Looks Great on You.  USDA Protein Calculator HERE Learn more about The LAB HERE Get details about the LAB by email HERE

In this episode, Dr. Bill Campbell returns to the show to discuss a major pivot in his research from building muscle and optimizing fat loss to understanding menopause and its effects on women's body composition. After watching his wife struggle through a severe perimenopause transition that resisted every traditional fat loss strategy, Campbell uncovered a massive blind spot in the scientific literature: almost no research exists on fit, resistance trained women going through menopause. His public comments sparked hundreds of messages from women describing the same struggles including unexplained weight gain, muscle loss, energy crashes, and sleep disruption highlighting how poorly understood this phase of life truly is. Dr. Campbell breaks down what the best research does show. Menopause accelerates fat gain, shifts fat distribution toward the midsection, and produces measurable declines in muscle and bone mineral density. Many women experience weight loss resistance where standard diet and training approaches no longer produce results. He also digs into the nuance of hormone replacement therapy how progesterone and estrogen can dramatically improve sleep, anxiety, and energy, why estrogen appears anabolic for middle aged women, and why HRT's effect on body fat varies widely. Campbell clarifies the long standing confusion created by the 2002 Women's Health Initiative study, how its flawed interpretation suppressed HRT use for two decades, and why today's evidence supports earlier intervention under an evidence based physician. The conversation closes with clear, practical guidance for women entering perimenopause. Maintain a consistent fitness lifestyle, lift weights to protect muscle and bone, prioritize sleep, get annual bloodwork and DEXA scans, and consider HRT early if medically appropriate. Campbell emphasizes that lifestyle habits do not replace hormone therapy and hormone therapy does not replace lifestyle. Together they help women navigate the most dramatic physiological transition since puberty. Whether you're a coach, practitioner, or someone approaching this stage of life, this episode provides a much needed framework for understanding, preparing for, and managing menopause with strength and agency.

Today Eric focuses on the concept of challenging traditional methods—or the mindset of "that's the way I've always done it"—within business, specifically contracting and the aquatic hobby. Triplet emphasizes the importance of innovation and efficiency, using examples like adopting new software (CompanyCam) to dramatically shorten the time spent on client reports, moving from burning CDs to using digital playlists, and ditching physical blueprints for digital plans. The conversation also explores the psychological traps that keep contractors stuck in outdated, less-profitable routines, highlighting that clinging to old methods can prevent necessary growth and adaptation to modern technology. Ultimately, Eric and his guests advocate for staying open-minded and ready to pivot rather than being rigidly attached to established, even if suboptimal, practices. Key Takeaways: Always keep your mind open to suggestions and new ideas for improvement. Continuously look for innovation to create efficiencies and collapse time in your processes. Stay nimble and be ready to pivot and adjust your approach when situations change. Do not blindly accept long-standing practices; verify facts and question the way things have always been done. Maintain knowledge of old methods and foundational skills in case new technology fails or is unavailable.

In this episode of the ASC Podcast with John Goehle we discuss the latest news, review common infection control and sanitary environment issues in ASCs and in our focus segment, discuss Navigating the Complexities of ASC Billing and Coding with Bob Lathrop from SIS.   This episode is sponsored by Surgical Information Systems,    Notes and Resources from this Episode: Cost pressures that battered ASCs in 2025: https://www.beckersasc.com/asc-transactions-and-valuation-issues/the-cost-pressures-that-battered-ascs-in-2025/?origin=ASCE&utm_source=ASCE&utm_medium=email&utm_content=newsletter&oly_enc_id=5567B4088734C3Z Focus on Sanitary Environment and Infection Prevention & Control (IPC) in ASC Surveys Sanitary environment and IPC issues consistently rank among the top deficiencies in ambulatory surgery center (ASC) accreditation and certification surveys, making this a critical "hot issue" for 2025 and beyond. These citations directly impact patient safety by increasing risks of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), and they appear frequently across major accreditors like CMS, AAAHC, and ACHC. For context: In AAAHC's 2025 Quality Roadmap (released September 2025), IPC remains a persistent top challenge, with deficiencies cited in nearly 90% of surveys for ASCs and office-based surgery settings. ACHC's November 2025 survey data highlights sanitary environment lapses (e.g., sanitation issues, incomplete policies) as a leading deficiency, often tied to inconsistent implementation of hand hygiene, glove techniques, and environmental cleaning. Historical CMS data shows patterns holding into recent years, with "Sanitary Environment" and "Infection Control Program" among the most cited, stemming from failures in basic practices like cleaning, sterilization, and safe injection protocols. These issues often arise from documentation gaps, staff inconsistencies, or overlooked details during busy operations, even in high-performing centers. Key Regulatory Requirements The foundation for sanitary environment and IPC in ASCs is CMS Conditions for Coverage (CfC) at 42 CFR § 416.51, which applies to Medicare-certified ASCs and influences other accreditors (deemed status via AAAHC, ACHC, etc.). Standard: Sanitary Environment (§ 416.51(a)): The ASC must provide a functional and sanitary environment for surgical services, avoiding sources and transmission of infections by adhering to professionally accepted standards (e.g., CDC, AORN, APIC guidelines). Standard: Infection Control Program (§ 416.51(b)): Maintain an ongoing, coordinated program to prevent, control, and investigate infections/communicable diseases.

She explains that while protein is crucial for providing the necessary amino acids for muscle repair, it is the act of resistance training that initiates the muscle-building process. The discussion highlights the interplay between mechanical tension and protein intake in achieving optimal muscle growth and repair.TakeawaysYour body will not build or preserve muscle mass unless it senses some kind of mechanical tension.The tension triggers muscle protein synthesis and adaptations.Protein is helpful for providing amino acids to repair and build muscle.Resistance training is the stimulus that gets the process started.Mechanical tension is key for muscle adaptation.Lifting, pushing, and pulling create muscle tension.Strengthening muscle fibers prepares them for future stress.Protein alone isn't enough; resistance training is essential.Amino acids are crucial for muscle repair and growth.Muscle growth requires both protein and resistance training.TitlesUnderstanding Muscle Growth: The Key ComponentsThe Essential Role of Protein in Muscle RepairSound bites"Strengthening muscle fibers for the future""Amino acids repair and build muscle""Protein provides amino acids for muscle repair"Chapters00:00 Understanding GLP-1 and Its Impact on Weight Management00:34 Integrating Resistance Training into Your Routine

In this episode, Bud Williams shares a timeless, experience-driven perspective on livestock marketing that challenges conventional thinking and expands how producers view profitability. Rather than focusing solely on selling animals, Bud explains why true marketing success comes from a whole-system approach that includes buying decisions, grazing management, inventory control, cash flow, and understanding market cycles. Drawing from decades of hands-on experience, Bud breaks down commodity cash markets, futures, and direct marketing—while emphasizing that profit is made at the time of purchase, not by hoping for higher prices later. This classic presentation remains as relevant today as ever, offering practical wisdom for producers navigating volatile markets and long-term business sustainability. Bud details how market cycles truly work, why declining markets often create the best opportunities, and how poor pricing discipline across the industry leads to instability. He also explains why scale isn't required for profitability—clarity, discipline, and smart decision-making are.

In this episode, Duane Osterlind sits down with Swami Revati, a Hindu monk with over 15 years of monastic experience. Together, they explore the intersection of Eastern spirituality, modern psychology, and the human search for lasting fulfillment. Swami Revati shares his journey from a multicultural upbringing to finding his spiritual mentor, offering a refreshing perspective on how Hinduism serves as a "science of the self." The conversation delves into the importance of proactive living, the role of divine grace, and how to cultivate an internal source of happiness that remains stable regardless of external circumstances.Swami Revati clarifies that Hinduism is not just a cultural identity or a polytheistic religion of competing gods. Instead, it is a diverse representation of one divine source. It functions as a marriage between philosophy and theology, focusing on two main steps:Self-Knowledge: Understanding who you are in full depth.Divine Connection: Understanding your source and building a relationship with it.The Power of Proactive LivingMost people live by "reciprocal love"—waiting for others to be kind or respectful before responding in kind. Swami Revati argues for proactive living:Decide who you want to be based on characteristics (humility, respect, love) rather than roles (job title, family status).Maintain those characteristics even when the environment doesn't reward them.Stability comes from mastering your inner world irrespective of external chaos.The Mind as Friend or FoeThe Goal: To make the mind your "best of friends" through discipline.The Method: Sadhana (spiritual practice). This involves "negation"—the practice of saying no to impulses in small ways to build the "muscle" for larger life challenges.Redefining Happiness vs. PleasureSensory Pleasure: Temporary, circumstantial, and often tied to addictive cycles (e.g., food, social media).True Happiness: An internal, stable state discovered by tapping into the "spark of divinity" within the soul.5. The Anatomy of "Evil"Swami Revati breaks down negative behaviors not as an entity, but as a byproduct of three factors:Anger: Uncontrolled emotional lashing.Desire: Selfish, short-term pleasure-seeking.Ego: Selfishness and lack of service to something greater.Memorable Quotes"For one who has the mind under control, it is the best of friends; for one who doesn't, it is the worst of enemies." — Swami Revati (referencing the Bhagavad Gita)"If happiness is reduced to just eating some fries and drinking a milkshake... that is momentary sensory pleasure. It has a lot to do with addictive cycles.""Nobody can help someone that doesn't want to help themselves... you must have the belief that it can change."Resources Thinking Bhakti Podcast: Hosted by Swami Revati.YouTube Channel The Bhagavad Gita: A foundational textIf you live in California and are looking for counseling or therapy please check out Novus Mindful Life Counseling and Recovery CenterNovusMindfulLife.comWe want to hear from you.

What if a silent thief was stealing your bone strength right now, and you had no idea until it was too late? Osteoporosis affects millions worldwide, yet most people remain completely unaware until a seemingly minor fall results in a life-altering fracture.Think of your bones like a bank account. During your teens and twenties, you make deposits, building peak bone mass by your early thirties. After that, the withdrawals begin. Whether you end up with strong, resilient bones or fragile ones depends on how much you deposited early on and how quickly you're making withdrawals now.Contrary to popular belief, osteoporosis isn't just a women's health issue. While post-menopausal women face accelerated bone loss due to declining estrogen, men develop it too—often without realizing they're at risk until that first fracture occurs. I've diagnosed osteoporosis in men in their sixties who thought they were "too strong" to have bone problems, only to see them suffer life-changing fractures from minor falls.Nutrition plays a vital role in bone health, but it's not just about milk and calcium. Adults need about 1,000-1,200mg of calcium daily, which can come from various sources including fortified plant milks, tofu, beans, nuts, seeds, and dark leafy greens. Vitamin D, protein, and other minerals all contribute to maintaining bone strength. However, if I could prescribe just one "medication" for osteoporosis, it would be resistance training. Weight-bearing exercise creates mechanical stress that stimulates bone formation more effectively than any supplement.Ready to outsmart this silent bone thief? Start by understanding your personal risk factors, optimizing your nutrition, implementing a progressive resistance training program, and talking to your doctor about appropriate screening. Small changes today can dramatically alter your bone health trajectory and protect your independence for decades to come.Go check out my website for tons of free resources on how to transition towards a healthier diet and lifestyle.You can download my free plant-based recipes eBook and a ton of other free resources by visiting the Digital Downloads tab of my website at https://www.plantbaseddrjules.com/shopDon't forget to check out my blog at https://www.plantbaseddrjules.com/blog You can also watch my educational videos on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMpkQRXb7G-StAotV0dmahQCheck out my upcoming live events and free eCourse, where you'll learn more about how to create delicious plant-based recipes: https://www.plantbaseddrjules.com/Go follow me on social media by visiting my Facebook page and Instagram accountshttps://www.facebook.com/plantbaseddrjuleshttps://www.instagram.com/plantbased_dr_jules/Last but not least, the best way to show your support and to help me spread my message is to subscribe to my podcast and to leave a 5 star review on Apple and Spotify!Thanks so much!Peace, love, plants!Dr. Jules

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.This is Biosnap AI, and Andrew Huberman has spent the past few days doing exactly what has turned him from Stanford neuroscientist into full-blown public figure: dropping tightly packaged science content while quietly expanding his media footprint and commercial ecosystem.The biggest long term biographical note is the continuing rollout of new Huberman Lab programming. On December 8, the Huberman Lab site released Master the Creative Process with legendary choreographer Twyla Tharp, a two and a half hour deep dive into routine, discipline, and creative work. Huberman positions himself not just as a brain explainer but as a kind of high performance curator, using Tharp to underscore his evolving brand as a coach of elite creativity as much as health.Just days later, on December 11, Huberman Lab Essentials issued How to Build, Maintain and Repair Gut Health with Stanford microbiome researcher Justin Sonnenburg. In this format, Huberman repackages earlier longform conversations into protocol driven, almost clinical briefings on diet, fiber, fermented foods, antibiotics, and probiotics. The Essentials line is increasingly central to his business model, feeding premium memberships, transcripts, and newsletter signups through the Huberman Lab platform and iHeart distribution, which still markets him as a top tier global podcast host.On the softer news side, Hindustan Times reported that Huberman's Instagram advice on how to study effectively has been circulating again, highlighting four habits used by high performing students: teaching others, eliminating distractions, structured time blocks, and active recall. For a scientist, having Indian mainstream press amplify old exam season clips is not trivial; it shows the stickiness of his protocols among students far outside his core U.S. tech and fitness audience.Lifestyle and wellness media continue to recycle one of his most viral ideas: NSDR, or Non Sleep Deep Rest. A recent explainer in the health and running outlet Runlovers credits Huberman with popularizing NSDR as a ten to twenty minute, neuroscience backed reset that mimics deep sleep brain states without grogginess, aimed at stressed professionals and learners. That kind of coverage cements NSDR as a signature Huberman concept in the broader self optimization culture.There are no credible reports in major outlets over the past few days of scandals, new Stanford roles, major investments, or public controversies involving him. Any claims beyond podcast releases, repurposed social clips, and third party explainers of his protocols appear, at this time, to be unverified chatter rather than established fact.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Justin Sonnenburg, PhD, a professor of microbiology and immunology at Stanford University. We discuss how microbes in our gut impact our mental and physical health and how diet and the environment affect the gut microbiome. We explain how lifestyle factors such as antibiotics and Western-style diets (high fat, low fiber and rich in processed foods) can damage gut diversity and whether prebiotics or probiotics are useful tools. Throughout the episode, we highlight evidence-based dietary and lifestyle strategies for improving gut health.

Today's podcast is a solo episode on keys to athletic longevity and ability. This isn't just a “stay strong as you age” show, but rather, speaks to principles of comprehensive embodiment of the movement and strength training process. Here I break down 10 core principles for true athletic longevity; physically, mentally, and creatively. Drawing from decades of coaching, training, and personal evolution, I explore why mastery of bodyweight skills, seasonal training rhythms, and “doing more with less” are essential as athletes age. I dive into the power of games, community, mythos, and ritual in keeping training joyful and sustainable, and explain how reflection, visualization, and a generalist mindset unlock deeper layers of performance. Whether you're 18 or 68, I share a roadmap for staying explosive, engaged, and young at heart; so your training stops feeling like an obligation and starts feeling like an adventure again.

Longevity principles apply to everyone. Frame training around sustaining abilities for life, not constantly chasing output. Use seasons of high intent and seasons of exploration to keep the body adaptable. 1:09 – Mastery of Bodyweight Strength Build a foundation through movements like single leg squats, pull-ups, handstands, and climbs. Treat bodyweight strength as both athleticism and self-care. Create challenges that force coordination, tension control, and awareness rather than raw force. Mastery comes from slow, deliberate practice, not grinding reps. 7:15 – Doing More with Less Minimal equipment forces the nervous system to solve problems instead of relying on machinery. Use odd objects, rocks, or simple setups to create organic strength tasks. The fewer the tools, the more your body must coordinate pathways and recruit fibers intuitively. Minimalism creates long term durability because it reduces stiffness from repetitive patterns. 14:48 – Beyond Output: The Joy of Training Training becomes richer when you stop chasing numbers and start chasing satisfaction. Explore environments that give you novelty, challenge, and a sense of discovery. Use activities like bouldering, trail running, or skill based strength tasks to reconnect with intrinsic motivation. Joy improves longevity by making training sustainable, not obligatory. 33:28 – Working with the Seasons Rotate training priorities with the seasons to avoid stagnation. Winter may prioritize hill sprints, rock climbing, or foundational strength. Summer may lean into elastic qualities, sprinting, and outdoor challenges. Seasonal shifts satisfy both psychology and physiology by adding rhythm to training. 41:15 – Community and Gameplay Seek out communities that support physical play: climbing gyms, pickup sports, outdoor groups. Games create natural variability and spontaneity that cannot be replicated in a weight room. Being around others elevates energy and brings back the competitive spark. Gameplay keeps you young because it connects challenge, emotion, and movement. 43:04 – The Mythos of Training Build a personal mythology around your process to make training more meaningful. Rituals, environments, and narratives help you commit long term. Your system does not need to be rigid to be powerful. It needs to resonate. Treat training as an evolving story rather than a strict set of prescriptions. 54:06 – Reflective Practices for Growth Use journaling, quiet walks, or cooldown reflection to understand how training is shaping you. Reflection strengthens the connection between intuition and programming. Regular evaluation prevents burnout because it keeps training aligned with who you are becoming. Know when a method has run its course so you can adapt before stagnation. 1:02:29 – Staying Young at Heart Regularly expose yourself to novelty to maintain athletic qualities and curiosity. Choose activities that make you laugh, struggle, or fail safely. Maintain low level sprinting and jumping year round to keep elasticity from fading. Staying youthful is a mindset supported by movement variety. 1:05:21 – Conclusion and Training Opportunities Mix structured training with open-ended exploration to become resilient. Create programs that align with your interests, not just performance metrics. Longevity is built from sustainable rhythms, not all out cycles. Choose training communities and methods that help you stay inspired. Quotes from Joel “Longevity is not about chasing numbers. It is about staying able.” “Minimalism forces your body to become smarter instead of stiffer.” “When you stop obsessing over the output, you rediscover the joy of the process.” “If you follow the seasons, your training stays fresh and your body stays adaptable.” “Gameplay brings out movement qualities you cannot coach in the weight room.” “Your training story matters. It keeps you showing up long after the numbers stop improving.” “Reflection is the anchor that keeps your training aligned with who you are becoming.” “Staying young at heart is as much a training strategy as it is a mindset.” About Joel Smith Joel Smith is the founder of Just Fly Sports, a leading education platform in speed, power, and human movement.

This week we are talking about Pancreatic cancer.  This is a type of cancer that begins as a growth of cells in the pancreas. The pancreas lies behind the lower part of the stomach. It makes enzymes that help digest food and hormones that help manage blood sugar. The most common type of pancreatic cancer is pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. This type begins in the cells that line the ducts that carry digestive enzymes out of the pancreas. Pancreatic cancer rarely is found at its early stages when the chance of curing it is greatest. This is because it often doesn't cause symptoms until after it has spread to other organs. Your health care team considers the extent of your pancreatic cancer when creating your treatment plan. Treatment options may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy or a mix of these. Pancreatic cancer often doesn't cause symptoms until the disease is advanced. When they happen, signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer may include: Belly pain that spreads to the sides or back. Loss of appetite. Weight loss. Yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes, called jaundice. Light-colored or floating stools. Dark-colored urine. Itching. New diagnosis of diabetes or diabetes that's getting harder to control. Pain and swelling in an arm or leg, which might be caused by a blood clot. Tiredness or weakness. It's not clear what causes pancreatic cancer. Doctors have found some factors that might raise the risk of this type of cancer. These include smoking and having a family history of pancreatic cancer. Understanding the pancreas The pancreas is about 6 inches (15 centimeters) long and looks something like a pear lying on its side. It releases hormones, including insulin. These hormones help the body process the sugar in the foods you eat. The pancreas also makes digestive juices to help the body digest food and take in nutrients. How pancreatic cancer forms Pancreatic cancer happens when cells in the pancreas develop changes in their DNA. A cell's DNA holds the instructions that tell a cell what to do. In healthy cells, the instructions tell the cells to grow and multiply at a set rate. The cells die at a set time. In cancer cells, the changes give different instructions. The changes tell the cancer cells to make many more cells quickly. Cancer cells can keep living when healthy cells would die. This causes there to be too many cells. The cancer cells might form a mass called a tumor. The tumor can grow to invade and destroy healthy body tissue. In time, cancer cells can break away and spread to other parts of the body. Most pancreatic cancer begins in the cells that line the ducts of the pancreas. This type of cancer is called pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma or pancreatic exocrine cancer. Less often, cancer can form in the hormone-producing cells or the neuroendocrine cells of the pancreas. These types of cancer are called pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors or pancreatic endocrine cancer. Risk factors Factors that might raise the risk of pancreatic cancer include: Smoking. Type 2 diabetes. Chronic inflammation of the pancreas, called pancreatitis. Family history of DNA changes that can increase cancer risk. These include changes in the BRCA2 gene, Lynch syndrome and familial atypical multiple mole melanoma (FAMMM) syndrome. Family history of pancreatic cancer. Obesity. Older age. Most people with pancreatic cancer are over 65. Drinking a lot of alcohol. As pancreatic cancer progresses, it can cause complications such as: Weight loss. People with pancreatic cancer might lose weight as the cancer uses more of the body's energy. Nausea and vomiting caused by cancer treatments or a cancer pressing on the stomach might make it hard to eat. Sometimes the body has trouble getting nutrients from food because the pancreas isn't making enough digestive juices. Jaundice. Pancreatic cancer that blocks the liver's bile duct can cause jaundice. Signs include yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes. Jaundice can cause dark-colored urine and pale-colored stools. Jaundice often occurs without belly pain. If the bile duct is blocked, a plastic or metal tube called a stent can be put inside it. The stent helps hold the bile duct open. This is done using a procedure called endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, also called ERCP. During ERCP, a health care professional puts a long tube with a tiny camera, called an endoscope, down the throat. The tube goes through the stomach and into the upper part of the small intestine. The health professional puts a dye into the pancreatic ducts and bile ducts through a small tube that fits through the endoscope. The dye helps the ducts show up on imaging tests. The health professional uses those images to place a stent at the right spot in the duct to help hold it open. Pain. A growing tumor may press on nerves in your abdomen, causing pain that can become severe. Pain medications can help you feel more comfortable. Treatments, such as radiation and chemotherapy, might help slow tumor growth and provide some pain relief. When medicines aren't helping, a health care professional might suggest a celiac plexus block. This procedure uses a needle to put alcohol into the nerves that control pain in the belly. The alcohol stops the nerves from sending pain signals to the brain. Bowel blockage. Pancreatic cancer can grow into or press on the first part of the small intestine, called the duodenum. This can block the flow of digested food from the stomach into the intestines. A health care professional might suggest putting a tube called a stent in the small intestine to hold it open. Sometimes, it might help to have surgery to place a feeding tube. Or surgery can attach the stomach to a lower part of the intestines where the cancer isn't causing a blockage. Prevention Screening for people with a high risk of pancreatic cancer Screening uses tests to look for signs of pancreatic cancer in people who don't have symptoms. It might be an option if you have a very high risk of pancreatic cancer. Your risk might be high if you have a strong family history of pancreatic cancer or if you have an inherited DNA change that increases the risk of cancer. Pancreatic cancer screening might involve imaging tests, such as MRI and ultrasound. These tests are generally repeated every year. The goal of screening is to find pancreatic cancer when it's small and most likely to be cured. Research is ongoing, so it's not yet clear whether screening can lower the risk of dying of pancreatic cancer. There are risks to screening. This includes the chance of finding something that requires surgery but later turns out to not be cancer. Talk about the benefits and risks of pancreatic cancer screening with your health care team. Together you can decide whether screening is right for you. Genetic testing for cancer risk If you have a family history of pancreatic cancer, discuss it with a health care professional. The health professional can review your family history and help you understand whether genetic testing might be right for you. Genetic testing can find DNA changes that run in families and increase the risk of cancer. If you're interested in genetic testing, you might be referred to a genetic counselor or other health care professional trained in genetics. Ways to lower risk You might reduce your risk of pancreatic cancer if you: Stop smoking. If you smoke, talk to a member of your health care team about ways to help you stop. These might include support groups, medicines and nicotine replacement therapy. Maintain a healthy weight. If you are at a healthy weight, work to maintain it. If you need to lose weight, aim for a slow, steady weight loss of 1 to 2 pounds (0.5 to 1 kilogram) a week. To help you lose weight, exercise most days of the week. Slowly increase the amount of exercise you get. Choose a diet rich in vegetables, fruit and whole grains with smaller portions.  (CREDITS: MAYO CLINIC)

Gospel Daily with Josh Weidmann How to Maintain Contentment, Part 2Series: O Little Town of Bethlehem Scripture: Ruth 1-4 Episode: 900 Scripture Summary: The book of Ruth chapters 1–4 tells a beautiful story of loyalty, redemption, and God's providence during the time of the judges. In Ruth 1, Naomi loses her husband and two sons in Moab and decides to return to Bethlehem. Her Moabite daughter-in-law Ruth chooses to stay with her, declaring, "Your people will be my people, and your God my God." In Ruth 2, Ruth gleans in the fields to provide for them and meets Boaz, a kind and wealthy relative of Naomi's late husband. Boaz shows favor and protection toward Ruth because of her faithfulness. In Ruth 3, Naomi encourages Ruth to approach Boaz as a kinsman-redeemer. Ruth follows Naomi's guidance, and Boaz responds with integrity and a willingness to redeem her—pending another relative's rights. In Ruth 4, Boaz legally redeems Ruth by marrying her, restoring Naomi's family line. Ruth and Boaz have a son, Obed, who becomes the grandfather of King David, placing Ruth directly in the genealogy of Jesus Christ. Key themes include: faithful love and loyalty, God's provision through unlikely people, the role of the kinsman-redeemer, and God's redemptive plan through ordinary lives.

CHSAA SETTLES ON BOYS IN GIRLS SPORTS And this is just the first round as districts like D49 in Colorado Springs refuse to allow fundamental unfairness to harm girls. According to the settlement reached and announced yesterday, D49 and its co-plaintiffs will be allowed to do the following:• Maintain separate sports teams for biological boys and girls.• Keep locker rooms and overnight travel accommodations separated by biological sex.• Avoid CHSAA-imposed penalties for upholding these policies.• Comply with Title IX and the U.S. Constitution while rejecting mandates that put student privacy at risk.All of which is perfectly NORMAL (more on that later in the blog). They are still suing the Colorado Civil Rights Commission, and the Attorney General and will continue moving forward with that part of the suit. I've got D49 Superintendent Peter Hilts on at 12:30 to talk about it.

Modern life gives us endless ways to connect with others, so why is it that so many of us struggle to build loving and supportive relationships? This week, I'm joined once again by Mo Gawdat for the second part of our inspiring two-part conversation. Mo is the former Chief Business Officer of Google [X], the author of multiple bestselling books and a world leading expert in technology and AI. In last week's episode, we explored Mo's remarkable insights into happiness, grief and the nature of life and death. In this second part, our conversation shifts towards love — what it really is, why it's so challenging for many of us and how greater self-awareness can transform the way we relate to others. Mo believes love itself is simple, but that relationships are complex. He shares his reflections on breakups, long-term commitment, emotional patterns and why so many of us misunderstand what we truly need. We also explore the fascinating psychology behind modern dating, the unhelpful design of many dating apps and the maths that quietly shapes our search for a partner. During this incredible episode, we discuss: Why Mo believes love is simple, but relationships are difficult - and the common mistakes we make in both.  The emotional patterns, habits and conditioning that shape how we show up in love. Why modern dating has become so challenging, and how commercial dating apps can make things worse. The maths behind dating and why our expectations, checklists and biases make it harder to find a partner. Why many relationship problems stem from misunderstandings, unmet needs and unexamined emotional triggers. How increasing self-awareness can transform the way we love, relate and resolve conflict. A significant part of our conversation focuses on Emma, the AI companion Mo has built to help people understand themselves better, navigate conflict with more compassion and approach dating and relationships with greater emotional clarity. You may feel sceptical about this, but Mo explains how Emma is designed not to replace human relationships, but to support them: improving communication, breaking unhelpful patterns and encouraging deeper connection. As always, Mo brings a depth of understanding to a topic that we can all struggle with at various times during our lives. What he does so brilliantly in this episode is remind us that at the heart of any meaningful relationship lies self-understanding, compassion and honesty. When we become more aware of our old patterns, needs and blind spots, we give ourselves a chance to love - and be loved - in a way that helps us find the connection we truly need - and desire.
