Send us a textIn this Weight Loss Wednesday episode, I stay firmly in the holiday spirit and tackle the most common weight loss questions people ask in December. I asked ChatGPT what women are most concerned about this time of year, and honestly, the questions were spot on. They are the same ones I see every single holiday season.I start with the big one. Should you even try to lose weight in December? I explain why continuing to try matters far more than seeing the scale move, and how sticking with your plan during hard seasons builds trust with yourself. December is not a free pass. Life does not suddenly get easier in January, and learning to keep going when things are messy is part of changing your relationship with food.I also talk about whether maintaining your weight over the holidays can be a win. For many people, eating at maintenance on big holiday days is a smart and strategic safety net. Maintaining is not failure. It is a skill, and it is always better than walking into January feeling defeated and frustrated.From there, I walk through how to handle holiday parties without undoing your progress. The strategies are not new or special just because it is December. The days all end in Y, and the same tools you use the rest of the year still apply. I share practical ways to stay present and mindful at parties, including why I do not eat standing up, why I avoid eating straight from the spread, and how paying attention to food actually increases satisfaction.I also address how to enjoy holiday foods without spiraling or binging. Having a little on purpose can be far more effective than trying to abstain completely. I explain the difference between being present with food and being mindful about the thoughts you have while eating it, and why both matter if you want to avoid unnecessary eating.Alcohol comes up too, because of course it does. I talk honestly about calories, controlling the mix, and why the bigger risk with drinking is often not the alcohol itself but the food decisions that follow. I share why having safety nets in place ahead of time can make a huge difference.I wrap up by reminding you that this is not last year.

Historic houses offer a tangible connection to a city's past, but maintaining them is difficult and expensive. Some of Oakland's most unique structures are currently endangered due to deferred maintenance and budget shortages. Fortunately, there are also several homes that have developed models for how to survive despite these challenges. Their goal isn't merely to exist, but to serve as resources for the neighborhoods that have grown up around them. To explore why saving historic homes matters, this episode features interviews with: -Naomi Schiff of the Oakland Heritage Alliance -Holly Alonso and Miguel Lopez of the Peralta Hacienda -Nancy Donald and Patty Donald of the Cohen-Bray House To see photos and links related to this episode, visit: https://eastbayyesterday.com/episodes/how-to-save-a-house/ Don't forget to follow the East Bay Yesterday Substack for updates on events, boat tours, exhibits, and other local history news: http://substack.com/@eastbayyesterday Donate to keep this show alive: www.patreon.com/c/eastbayyesterday

If holiday events leave you feeling anxious, reactive, or like you've already blown it before the night even starts, this episode is your reset. In episode 5 of our Holiday Eating Series, I'm breaking down exactly how to approach parties and dinners so you can enjoy the food and the moment without spiraling, because it's not the holiday meals that throw most women off, it's the strategy they walk in with.I walk you through what actually matters before, during, and after an event so you can stay grounded, avoid the guilt hangover, and keep your momentum intact. We'll talk about the subtle ways women accidentally sabotage themselves, how to build a plate that supports balance instead of relying on willpower, and what to do after a big night so guilt doesn't turn into an all or nothing reset.By the end, you'll know how to leave an event feeling satisfied and in control instead of stuffed, frustrated, or planning to start over tomorrow. Hit play and let's change how this season feels.And, if this resonated and you're ready to enjoy the holidays without sacrificing your body goals, download your FREE Holiday Eating Roadmap here: https://mindin-my-wellness.captivate.fm/roadmap2:40 – Why holiday overeating is driven by mindset, not just food choices3:14 – The simple three-step plan: what to do before, during, and after events3:41 – Why “saving calories” by skipping meals leads to overeating6:36 – How to build your plate for balance (and enjoying the fun foods, too)8:44 – The 80% full rule for mindful eating at holiday gatherings10:49 – How to reset the next day—no restriction or guilt required Other Episodes You'll Love:Episode 139: Why Starting Over in January Keeps You Stuck (Do THIS simple reset to stay consistent all season!) | HOLIDAY EATING SERIESEpisode 140: How to Create a Flexible Holiday Eating Routine So You Can Enjoy the Season Without Stressing About Weight Gain | HOLIDAY EATING SERIESEpisode 141: How to Quickly Stop the I'll Start Over on January 1st Mentality (Try THIS Before You Spiral!) | HOLIDAY EATING SERIESEpisode 142: The Two Ingredients That Make Holiday Eating So Much Easier | HOLIDAY EATING SERIES

Better implant outcomes start with how we shape tissue from day one. In this episode of Everyday Oral Surgery, host Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes return guest Dr. Richard Akin, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon from Louisiana, to explore immediate implants and the art of crafting custom healing abutments.

This approach helps capture and maintain the natural tissue contours during healing. He shares practical lessons on case selection, torque control, and grafting, and unpacks why wide-platform implants play such a critical role in the long-term success of posterior and second molar cases. Beyond surgical precision, Dr. Akin reflects on how collaboration with restorative dentists and lab technicians helps bridge knowledge gaps, streamline workflows, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

Angelo Flaccavento has long been one of fashion's most distinctive critical voices — sharp yet empathetic, rigorous yet imaginative, always willing to question his own certainties. In this conversation, he traces his path from a Sicilian childhood spent absorbing magazines in boutique backrooms to becoming a writer whose clarity and candor designers both fear and admire. We discuss the formative power of self-doubt, the responsibility of the critic in an era shaped by branding and algorithms, and why genuine surprise has become fashion's rarest commodity. Angelo reflects on taste as a lifelong education, the tension between fantasy and reality, and the importance of staying fluid rather than defined in a moment obsessed with categorization. “I'm a dreamer, but not an escapist. Fantasy has to somehow crash to the ground in order to become reality.” - Angelo Flaccavento  Episode Highlights: A Sicilian childhood shaped by boutiques and early fashion literacy Angelo grew up in Ragusa surrounded by family-run boutiques at the height of Italy's fashion boom. Magazines, Versace dresses, Guy Bourdin images, and the glamour of the early '80s became his first education in style and visual culture. Discovering i-D and turning Ragusa into his personal London Getting a subscription to i-D as a teenager becomes a defining moment. He reads each issue obsessively, treating it as a window into a world he hasn't yet reached — the foundation of his sharp, culturally attuned eye. From aspiring designer to critic: finding the right medium Though he once dreamed of being a designer, he realized he was more drawn to ideas, imagery, and interpretation. Writing became his path, encouraged by teachers who sensed his voice before he did. A voice that evolves rather than settles Angelo talks about tone and style as living entities — shaped by constraints, sharpened by editors, and never fixed in place. He values clarity, concision, and atmosphere, always pushing himself toward more precision. Doubt as a creative engine He sees doubt not as insecurity but as momentum, calling it “the essence of progress.” Self-questioning keeps him open, curious, and resistant to stagnation. Criticism as decoding, not destruction For Angelo, the critic's role is to cut through PR storytelling and help readers understand what they're actually seeing. He believes in honesty delivered with generosity — critique as illumination, not cruelty. Maintaining integrity in a political, PR-driven industry He speaks openly about the emotional and professional navigation required each season, from access issues to difficult conversations, and why seeing shows live is essential to telling the truth. Fashion's power to surprise Angelo celebrates the rare, electric moments when a show shifts the mood of the entire industry — reminders of why fashion still matters and how a collection can rewire the cultural conversation. Taste as instinct refined over a lifetime For him, taste is a mix of instinct and education — shaped by art history, architecture, vertical lines, trial and error, and everything one has ever seen. Taste is biography turned into perspective. What is contemporary now: resisting definition Angelo concludes that the most contemporary stance is fluidity — refusing to let algorithms, labels, or nostalgia define us, and staying open enough to see the world anew.

Help us keep the conversations going in 2026. Donate to Conversations with Tyler today. Gaurav Kapadia has deliberately avoided publicity throughout his career in investing, which makes this conversation a rare window into how he thinks. He now runs XN, a firm built around concentrated bets on a small number of companies with long holding periods. However, his education in judgment began much earlier, in a two-family house in Flushing that his parents converted into a four-family house. It was there where a young Gaurav served as de facto landlord, collecting rent and negotiating late payments at age 10. That grounding now expresses itself across an unusual range of domains: Tyler invited him on the show not just as an investor, but as someone with a rare ability to judge quality in cities, talent, art, and more with equal fluency.  Tyler and Gaurav discuss how Queens has thrived without new infrastructure, what he'd change as "dictator" of Flushing, whether Robert Moses should rise or fall in status, who's the most underrated NYC mayor, what's needed to attract better mayoral candidates, the weirdest place in NYC, why he initially turned down opportunities in investment banking for consulting, bonding with Rishi Sunak over railroads, XN's investment philosophy, maintaining founder energy in investment firms and how he hires to prevent complacency, AI's impact on investing, the differences between New York and London finance, the most common fundraising mistake art museums make, why he collects only American artists within 20 years of his own age, what makes Kara Walker and Rashid Johnson and Salman Toor special, whether buying art makes you a better investor, his new magazine Totei celebrating craft and craftsmanship, and much more.

Expectations are the backbone of any team that wants to function without drama, drift, or constant hand-holding. Clear expectations create alignment. Maintaining them creates culture. But what happens when standards start slipping, people get complacent, and the gap between “what we said” and “what's happening” widens? This episode digs into a simple, practical framework leaders in any industry can use to reset standards without defaulting to motivational speeches, generic pep talks, or more carrot-and-stick nonsense. If you've ever felt like you're repeating yourself, wasting time, or dealing with the same issues week after week, this one will save you a lot of headaches. What You'll Learn 1.⁠ ⁠Why people actually fail to meet expectations Not the clichés—the real psychological and environmental roots. You'll also learn the first thing you must do the moment you notice standards slipping. Miss this step and everything else becomes noise. 2.⁠ ⁠How to create real accountability that sticks A concrete way to stop the cycle of reminding, repeating, and re-explaining. This section gives you a process to prevent déjà-vu problems that drain time, energy, and morale. 3.⁠ ⁠Tactics for telling who needs coaching vs. who needs to go You'll walk away with informal, easy-to-use techniques that reveal who's capable of growth and who's holding your team back—before the situation becomes a major personnel issue. ⸻ If you're a leader who's tired of the same conversations, or you want a straightforward way to steady the ship and raise the floor of performance, you'll get a lot out of this.

In this encore episode, we highlight key roles that zinc plays in supporting various aspects of mucosal barrier integrity, while detailing the structure of the intestinal mucosal barrier. We detail key anatomical features, including the mucus layer, epithelial cells, and tight junctions, before discussing zinc's physiological roles, its relationship with copper, and factors that can affect zinc levels. The discussion further details mechanistic features of zinc absorption as well as specialized forms such as zinc carnosine.Topics:1. Introduction - Overview of intestinal hyperpermeability and intestinal barrier function- Highlighting the role of zinc 2. Intestinal Barrier Anatomy - Four major layers: mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa, serosa- Mucosa subdivisions; focus on epithelium  3. The Mucus Layer  - Location over the epithelial surface- Composition: mucin-rich, secreted by goblet cells- Goblet cell mucin storage and expansion upon hydration- Functions: trapping pathogens, lubricating epithelium, housing molecules including secretory IgA- Small intestine mucus - Large intestine mucus 4. The Intestinal Epithelium - Monolayer of epithelial cells: enterocytes, goblet cells, and more- Tight junctions, paracellular transport - Continuous epithelial renewal 5. Introduction to Zinc - Zinc as a trace mineral required in minute quantities for numerous physiological processes - Second most abundant trace mineral after iron; majority stored in muscle and bone- Maintaining plasma and intracellular zinc concentrations within narrow range- Both deficiency and excess can disrupt biochemical processes 6. Zinc and Copper  - Zinc and copper as closely interconnected minerals- Zinc, copper, and metallothionein binding in enterocytes- Both high and low zinc can disrupt zinc-copper balance- Metallothionein as a cysteine-rich metal-binding protein  7. Factors Affecting Zinc Levels  - Multifactorial- Possible signs of low zinc status 8. Zinc Absorption  - Dietary sources- Primary absorption in small intestine - In the stomach: HCl and pepsin denature proteins and cleave peptide bonds, releasing zinc from protein complexes- Dietary zinc often bound within tertiary protein structure- Specialized transporters  9. Zinc's Role in the Intestinal Barrier  - Zinc and tight junction proteins- Zinc and Intestinal Epithelial Cells - Zinc and the mucus layer 10. Broader Context of Zinc in Physiology   11. Zinc Carnosine  - Molecular complex of zinc and carnosine- L-carnosine composed of beta-alanine and L-histidine- Gastrointestinal context 12.

In this episode of the Growing with Purpose podcast, host Jean Moncrieff sits down with Megan Gluth, CEO of Catalynt, for an honest conversation about resilience, self-awareness and leading with steadiness in uncertain times. Megan shares her journey from an “accidental entrepreneur” to the leader of a merged, $100M business. She reflects on how growing up with limited resources shaped her resourcefulness and scrappiness, and how personal loss led her to a new beginning in the Pacific Northwest and eventually into the world of chemical distribution. Through acquisitions and a commitment to unity, she merged three companies into one culture-driven organization: Catalynt. Together, Jean and Megan explore what it means to build a supportive company culture rooted in honesty, trust and truth-telling. Megan describes her daily mindfulness practice, her approach to equanimity during crisis, and the importance of grounding leadership decisions in real data rather than noise. She also speaks candidly about the isolation leaders can face, the unique challenges women encounter in leadership roles, and the power of community and independent advisors. It's a thoughtful and grounded conversation about resourcefulness, courage and the lifelong journey of cultivating self-worth as a leader.

Episode 1890: Michael Levitt outlines essential strategies for protecting sensitive information while working remotely, helping businesses reduce risk without sacrificing flexibility. By implementing secure software, clear web access guidelines, and strong data encryption, leaders can safeguard operations and maintain customer trust in a decentralized work environment. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.breakfastleadership.com/blog/maintaining-security-in-the-era-of-remote-working Quotes to ponder: "One of the most effective steps that you can follow to maintain security in the era of remote working is to create a list of both safe and unsafe websites for your staff." "Communication platforms and file transfer systems should be the safest of all, as you cannot risk putting your customer information or private messages in harm's way." "Encrypting your data is likely the best option, as this means that anyone who does gain access to your storage will be greeted with a totally scrambled and incomprehensible data dump that they cannot use in any way."
