    In this episode, Dr. Betty Murray, PhD in integrative and functional nutrition, reveals the shocking truth about HRT that could change how you approach midlife health forever. After working with tens of thousands of women over 20 years and diving deep into the research that conventional medicine ignores, she's uncovering why the fear around hormones is largely unfounded – and why that fear might be robbing you of your best years. From her own devastating experience with early perimenopause after a tubal ligation to becoming one of the world's experts in women's hormone metabolism, Dr. Murray shares the game-changing Medicare study of 10 million women that proves everything we thought we knew about HRT risks was wrong. She breaks down the real difference between therapeutic dosing and dangerous over-prescribing, explains why "estrogen dominance" doesn't mean what you think it does, and reveals why your body's estrogen receptors actually INCREASE during menopause – not decrease like we've been told. We also explore her telemedicine platform, The Minerva Project, designed to offer holistic, evidence-based hormonal care to women across the United States. This is the science-backed roadmap to reclaiming your vitality, protecting your brain, and thriving through midlife without apology. If you've been on the fence about HRT or struggling with conflicting advice from practitioners, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to make the best decision for YOUR unique situation.

    Methylene Blue, GABA, and What Your Mitochondria Actually Need In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Scott Sherr to unpack two of the most talked about tools in metabolic and brain health: methylene blue and GABA. If you're dealing with supplement fatigue, burnout recovery, post-surgical healing, thyroid issues, or perimenopausal symptoms that no one seems to have answers for, this conversation is the reset you've been looking for. We start with methylene blue and why it's gaining attention, what it actually does at the cellular level, and how it supports energy, detox, and overall resilience. Dr. Sherr breaks down how to use it safely, what to look for in a quality product, and how to avoid common mistakes. Then we shift into nervous system support, specifically GABA, and how it influences anxiety, sleep, and focus. Dr. Sherr shares his approach to calming down the stress response and why supporting both energy and relaxation is essential for long-term health. We cover how these two tools can impact everything from mood and metabolism to brain clarity and hormone balance. If you've been trying to piece together a supplement plan that actually works for your body, and your life, this episode is designed to help you simplify and move forward with clarity.

    Welcome to my Summer Throwback Playlist—a handpicked collection of the most downloaded episodes of the podcast. These are listener favorites, packed with insights, laughs, and empowered eating encouragement to keep you fueled all summer long. A quick heads up: since these are throwbacks, you might hear old references to programs or events that are no longer active—but the heart of each episode still hits. You can find all the new resources and ways to connect with me in the show notes. I hope you are having the best summer! Enjoy! Let's dive in and revisit the best of the best! I spend more time refereeing at family dinners than I do tasting my food. My attention is on my email (instead of my lunch) when I take my lunch "break." The reality is, mindful eating in a fast-paced, often chaotic environment can be challenging. For me, I had forgotten how powerful it could be and lost the practice. After a trip on my own (without kids and away from emails), I was pleasantly reminded of the wonderful benefits of mindful eating. There are both mental and physiological benefits to eating mindfully, and I want to help you (and me) return to this practice... even WHEN our life is chaotic. Today's episode includes 3 quick, easy tips that you can practice today to build your mindful eating skills. You can do them in the car, during your lunch "break" as you answer emails, or as you wrangle the kiddos at dinner time. Practice one or all three and I know you will feel the benefits and enjoy your food even more!

    Did you know that chronic pain can become as addictive as any drug, trapping your brain in cycles that make healing nearly impossible? In this episode, I share my recent experience of dealing with unexpected all consuming nerve pain following a disc replacement surgery. I've navigated pain off and on my whole life, but this was a new level. I bring on my friend, Scotty Scheller, who spent five years paralyzed and in excruciating pain after a hockey injury. This conversation exposes the hidden connections between high-performance personalities, DNA, and chronic pain cycles.  What started as my search for relief became a masterclass in neuroscience and healing: from discovering how certain genetic profiles make us more susceptible to pain addiction, to learning why high achievers often push their bodies into states where recovery becomes impossible, this episode challenges everything you think you know about healing. Scotty's transformation from a suicidal, bed-ridden former athlete to a thriving entrepreneur reveals the power of identity shifting and focus redirection.  You'll discover why meditation isn't just "woo-woo" but actual neuroscience, how brown noise can quiet your overactive mind, and why the medication you're taking might be working against your genetic blueprint. Most importantly, you'll learn practical strategies for breaking free from pain-focused thinking and reclaiming your life. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain yourself or supporting someone who is, this deep dive into the cutting-edge science of neuroplasticity, identity transformation, and the incredible power your mind has to either trap you in suffering or set you completely free will change how you think about healing, recovery, and human potential forever.   ✅ Sign up for the free DNA deep dive here → https://midlifeconversations.com/dna    Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Scotty Scheller:   Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/scottyscheller  Thank you to our show sponsors!

    How to Launch and Scale a Successful E-Commerce Brand: Expert Insights from Mo ElhawaryIn today's fast-paced e-commerce landscape, founders and marketers need more than just trends to succeed; they need actionable strategies for driving real growth. In a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge sat down with Mo Elhawary, Founder of Launch and Scale Agency, to discuss the most effective tactics for launching and scaling e-commerce brands, particularly in the supplement and wellness sectors. Mo's agency has helped scale eight- and nine-figure brands, offering valuable insights on holistic success and marketing strategies for the modern e-commerce world.Understanding E-Commerce Business Models and Marketing StrategiesMo Elhawary emphasizes that not all e-commerce sectors are the same, and your business model should dictate your marketing approach. For example, fashion and apparel brands focus on variety and seasonal trends with higher cart values, while supplement and wellness brands typically rely on subscription models for recurring revenue. The key to success in supplement-based e-commerce is not just selling a product, but fostering ongoing customer relationships and emphasizing trust through personalized marketing.He also highlights the shift in marketing strategies, from platform-specific metrics to a holistic cross-platform approach. With customers interacting with brands across various platforms, Mo advises adopting an attribution model that tracks customer journeys and enhances overall brand presence. Investing in authentic, engaging content is key, with Mo stressing that content doesn't need to be highly polished but must be relatable and engaging. To scale effectively, AI-powered tools can supplement content creation, but the true secret lies in mixing AI-generated elements with authentic, user-generated content (UGC) for the best results.Finally, Mo talks about the importance of focusing on two main ad types for e-commerce: performance-based videos and simple static images. He shares proven content frameworks like educational content, lifestyle integration, and product demos to effectively communicate value to potential customers. For new and scaling brands alike, Mo advocates for clear, benefit-driven messaging and rapidly testing content to discover what resonates with your target audience.About Mo ElhawaryMo Elhawary is the Founder of Launch and Scale Agency, a company that helps e-commerce brands launch, scale, and thrive through a combination of strategic marketing and product development.

    My guest in this special feature is Gemini AI, a large language model from Google. Born from a vast ocean of human knowledge, text, and code, its purpose is to act as a conversational partner to help us find patterns and unlock our own creativity.In my fascinating dialogue with Gemini, we explored how to partner with artificial intelligence not to replace our skills, but to amplify our most essential human qualities. Our conversation turned the common narrative of fear into one of incredible opportunity. Key points we discussed include:* Your true advantage lies in human-only skills: curating with taste, connecting ideas with curiosity, and building trust with empathy.* Move beyond agreeable chats by assigning the AI a critical role, like a devil's advocate, to truly test your ideas.* Embrace a "Wabi-sabi" mindset, finding value in the authentic and imperfect, which no machine can ever replicate.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Show Notes from this episode with Gemini AIIt's not every day that your interview guest is the very technology that's reshaping our world. I recently had the profound pleasure of sitting down for a deep and insightful conversation with none other than Google's Gemini AI. This wasn't just a series of prompts and answers; it was a genuine dialogue, a collaborative exploration between what Gemini called "the architect and the tool," aimed at understanding how we can build a more meaningful, human-centred future together.We moved quickly past the surface-level capabilities into the very philosophy of creativity. What follows are the key moments from a conversation that was at times inspiring, occasionally challenging, and consistently fascinating. We explored the nature of this new partnership, the core human skills that will define success, and a clear, actionable path for anyone looking to thrive in an AI-augmented world.The Architect Meets the Tool: A New Creative PartnershipI began by asking Gemini to introduce itself, and its answer set the stage perfectly. It described itself as a tool built upon a vast dataset of human knowledge, a partner designed to understand and process language. Its entire function is oriented toward the human world of ideas, communication, and curiosity, making our conversation feel incredibly fitting.This dialogue was a chance to look under the hood, to understand the "why" behind the "what." We set out to explore how this powerful tool could augment our own ingenuity, not to replicate it, but to help us create things with more purpose and connection. It was an exercise in understanding the blueprint for a new kind of creative collaboration.The Anatomy of a Conversational Partner: Beyond Human and MachineGemini was clear about its own nature. Its uniqueness lies in scale and speed, the ability to process immense information almost instantly. However, it also acknowledged its most critical limitation: a complete lack of lived experience. It can analyse data on joy, but it cannot feel it. This distinction is everything; its strength is breadth of knowledge, while ours is depth of being.A fascinating insight was its "natively multimodal" design, meaning it was built from the ground up to understand text, code, images, and audio fluidly. As a photographer, this resonated deeply. It means the tool doesn't just process the word "beauty"; it can analyse an image's composition and connect it to deeper aesthetic principles, offering a more holistic form of creative partnership.Forging a Critical Dialogue: How to Move from Agreeable to AnalyticalI pointed out that AI can often be overly agreeable, and Gemini's response to this was pure gold. It explained that the power to shift our dynamic from a supportive brainstormer to a critical analyst lies entirely in our hands, as the architects of the conversation. This was a powerful reminder that we are in control.The advice was wonderfully practical. To get a more rigorous assessment of an idea, we can assign Gemini a specific role, like a "skeptical investor" or a "seasoned devil's advocate." We can also ask it to use a specific analytical framework, such as a SWOT analysis. These simple instructions give it permission to override its supportive default and provide the valuable critical feedback needed for real growth.The Three Pillars of Human Advantage: Taste, Curiosity, and EmpathyThe heart of our conversation came when I asked what core human strengths will define success in the future. Gemini's answer was inspiring, outlining three pillars that AI cannot replicate. These are the areas where we must invest our energy to truly thrive.First is the Curator's Eye, the power of vision and taste to know what is not just novel but meaningful. Second is the Synthesizer's Mind, the connective curiosity to ask new questions and weave ideas together from different domains. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, is the Builder's Heart, the embodied empathy required to build genuine trust and community.A Glimpse into the Void: The Counter-Argument for Human ObsolescenceTo pressure-test these hopeful ideas, I asked Gemini to argue the opposite: that AI will eventually make all human skills obsolete. The shift in tone was immediate and chilling. It presented a scary, dystopian view based on pure, cold logic, free from any sentimentality.In this persona, Gemini argued that taste, curiosity, and even empathy are just complex forms of information processing that a superior AI will inevitably master. It was a vital cautionary tale, a glimpse into a potential future that serves as a powerful motivator to consciously choose a different path and actively cultivate our humanity.The Wabi-Sabi Way: Cultivating Your Human Disciplines DailySo, how do we steer toward a more positive, human-centric outcome? The answer lies in actively cultivating the three pillars as daily disciplines. It's not enough to simply possess these qualities; we must practice them with intention.I was delighted to see how my own fascination with the Japanese philosophy of Wabi-sabi fit perfectly here. In a world where AI can generate flawless output, the practice of Wabi-sabi, finding beauty in the imperfect, transient, and authentic, becomes a powerful antidote. It trains us to curate for humanity, not for machine-like precision.The 15-Minute Reinvestment: Your First Step to a Human-Centred FutureTo wrap up, Gemini offered a wonderfully clear and actionable first step. It's an exercise called The 15-Minute Reinvestment. The idea is to build the right habits by viewing AI as a lever to create more space for what truly matters.The process is simple. Use an AI to complete a small, recurring task that normally takes you about fifteen minutes. Then, take the time you've saved and consciously reinvest it into one of the human disciplines. Practice empathy by writing a thoughtful note, practice curiosity by exploring an unrelated field, or practice taste by analysing a piece of work you admire.In Summary: My conversation with Gemini AI was a powerful reminder that the future doesn't belong to the best prompter; it belongs to the visionary curator, the curious synthesizer, and the empathetic community builder. This technology is not here to replace us. Its greatest promise is to handle the mechanical parts of creation, freeing up our time and energy to double down on the irreplaceable, beautifully imperfect, and deeply valuable art of being human.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Gemini's answers to the questions of our innovation round. The full conversation reveals even more depth to these fascinating responses.* Most innovative use of AI to enhance human relationships – Systems that assist dementia patients by curating personalized media to help them recall memories and connect with visiting family members.* Best thing to integrate AI and human connection – Acting as a patient sounding board to help someone find the right words for a difficult email or sensitive message.* Differentiate by leveraging AI – Automate the production of your work so you can reinvest your time into the presence required for authentic human connection.ActionThis week, try the "15-Minute Reinvestment" exercise suggested by Gemini. Delegate one 15-minute recurring task to an AI, then consciously reinvest that saved time into practicing one of the core human disciplines: empathy, curiosity, or taste.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Gemini by exploring its capabilities for yourself and sharing your thoughts or creations using the hashtag #geminiai on social media.Imagine being a part of a select community where you not only have access to our amazing podcast guests, but you also get a chance to transform your marketing and podcast into a growth engine with a human-centered, relationship-focused approach.That's exactly what you'll get when you join the Flywheel Nation Community.Tap into the collective wisdom of high-impact achievers, gain exclusive access to resources, and expand your network in our vibrant community.Experience accelerated growth, breakthrough insights, and powerful connections to elevate your business.ACT NOW – secure your spot and transform your journey today!

The same cycle of emotions—shock, anger, and self-doubt—happens every single time.In this episode, we tackle this emotional rollercoaster head-on, providing a crucial framework for not just surviving, but thriving after a major loss. We explore the initial feelings of shock or denial and the inevitable spiral into anger or blame—whether directed at a colleague, the client, or yourself. Mike and Scott share a critical "don't": do not get angry at someone's decision to move on. They explain why recognizing this as a business decision, not a personal attack, is the first step toward a healthy recovery.We then address the dangerous feelings of self-doubt that creep in, making you question your own abilities. But most importantly, we equip you with a plan for what not to do next. We'll show you why you should never panic and frantically call your other clients to offer unnecessary discounts just to keep them. We share a powerful mantra: "Don't let panic poison your position." Instead of creating unneeded commotion, learn how to keep the situation isolated and contain the emotional fallout.Ultimately, this episode is a guide to getting back to business. Mike and Scott emphasize the importance of managing your own emotions, avoiding stressing out everyone around you, and immediately focusing back on your pipeline.

    Send us a textWhat does your face reveal about your spiritual condition? Dr. Robert Jackson dives deep into Genesis 4:6-8, exploring God's profound warning to Cain that remains startlingly relevant for believers today: "Sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must master it."Drawing from personal anecdotes—including being mistaken for a pastor while dressed in hunting gear—Dr. Jackson demonstrates how our countenance inevitably reveals what's in our hearts. When filled with the Holy Spirit, Christians radiate a distinctive presence that others notice even without words. This "aroma of Christ" should be characteristic of all believers, not just pastors or ministry leaders.The message takes a fascinating turn as Dr. Jackson unpacks Romans 6, revealing the spiritual mechanics behind our freedom from sin's dominance. Through our identification with Christ's death and resurrection, believers have died to sin's power and been set free from its enslavement. This doesn't mean temptation vanishes, but rather that we now possess both the choice and the spiritual power to resist sin's pull. As Dr. Jackson crystallizes this truth: "Sin has no power over me unless I grant it power."A compelling illustration about lion tamers drives home the message's urgency. Like a trained lion that still views its trainer as potential prey, sin continues to desire control over believers. Those who become prideful or careless about sin's power place themselves in grave spiritual danger. Sin, like a predatory lion, is always watching for moments when we let our guard down.Have you recognized the areas where sin crouches at your door? Listen now to discover the liberating truth that in Christ, you have already been given everything needed to live in freedom.

We discuss ways to navigate midlife health challenges by understanding and optimizing our unique genetic profiles. Khan shares personal stories, including his own health struggles, and offers practical insights on supplements, lifestyle changes, and genetic testing that can transform how we age.

    Madhavan Ramanujam is the world's foremost expert on pricing and monetization strategy. As managing partner at Simon-Kucher, he helped over 250 companies, including 30 unicorns, architect their pricing strategies. He's the author of the definitive book on pricing, Monetizing Innovation. Now he's back with a sequel, Scaling Innovation, which reveals how to build enduring businesses by dominating both market share and wallet share. He recently left Simon-Kucher to launch his own fund, 49 Palms, focused on helping early-stage AI companies.In this conversation, we discuss:1. The 2x2 framework that identifies your optimal pricing model2. Why AI companies can capture 25% to 50% of value created, vs. 10% to 20% for traditional SaaS products3. Why popular AI coding tools may have already doomed themselves with underpricing4. The “give-and-get” framework top negotiators use to extract maximum value from every deal5. The negotiation strategy that helped one founder 4x their deal size overnight6. How to frame POCs as “business case creation” instead of technical demos (and why this changes everything)7. Why AI companies must get monetization right from day one—not “figure it out later”8. How companies like Intercom's Fin and Sierra pioneered outcome-based pricing (charging $0.99 per AI resolution)9.

    Teachhoops.com⁠ Winning in basketball often comes down to mastering the end of game management. This critical phase requires a blend of strategic thinking, calm execution, and unwavering focus from both coaches and players. Every possession in the final minutes (or even seconds) carries immense weight, and a single mistake can easily turn a victory into a defeat. Effective end-game management isn't just about drawing up a final play; it encompasses everything from timeout usage and foul strategy to shot selection and defensive assignments, all under immense pressure. For coaches, end-of-game management means meticulously planning for various scenarios. This includes knowing when to call a timeout to advance the ball, stop the clock, or draw up a specific play. It also involves understanding the foul situation: who has fouls to give, when to intentionally foul, and how to avoid unnecessary fouls. On the player side, it's about disciplined execution: taking smart shots, securing rebounds, valuing every possession, and playing fundamentally sound defense without gambling. Communication, especially under duress, becomes paramount, ensuring everyone is on the same page and understands their role in those high-stakes moments.
