Emily Kircher-Morris and Dr. William Dodson have a conversation about the complexities of ADHD, in which they discuss emotional dysregulation, Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD), and social anxiety. They talk about how RSD manifests in ADHDers, and how we can distinguish it from social anxiety. They also explore the impact of childhood experiences, the vital role of relationships, and the need for updated diagnostic criteria. This conversation was taken from a two-part series earlier in 2025. TAKEAWAYS Emotional dysregulation is often overlooked in ADHD diagnoses. RSD is a specific condition affecting many with ADHD; the pain can be both emotional and physical, leading to significant life impairments. Social anxiety is anticipatory, while rejection sensitivity is reactive; they can coexist but are distinct. Childhood experiences can exacerbate RSD but are not the sole cause. Medication, alongside sleep, nutrition, structure, and routine, plays a vital role in emotional regulation. Mood disorders can manifest independently of external events, and a significant percentage of individuals with ADHD have coexisting psychiatric diagnoses. Understanding RSD is essential for clinicians, and psychoeducation is key to self-advocacy. Here's the research project Emily mentions in her closing thoughts. Dr. Bill Dodson is a board-certified adult psychiatrist who has specialized in adults with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder for the last 27 years. In recognition of his clinical contributions to the field of ADHD he was named a Life Fellow of the APA in 2012. He was the 2006 recipient of the national Maxwell J. Schleifer Award for Distinguished Service to Persons with Disabilities. His contributions to the field of ADHD include: The only currently available methodology for the fine-tuning of ADHD medications. The concept of Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria and its treatment with medications. The first non-behavioral theory of what ADHD is and how it can be treated successfully with an emphasis on what goes right rather than what goes wrong.

In this episode, ASTHO's Director of Public Health, Data Modernization, and Informatics, Allen Rakotoniaina, breaks down how public health agencies can effectively make the case for investing in modern data systems. He explains why “business numbers,” like labor hours saved or dollars recouped, can be the tipping point for decision-makers, especially in an environment where funding is scarce. Allen also demonstrates how person-centered storytelling transforms technical work into relatable, mission-driven narratives, using real-world examples such as overdose prevention. He explores how tools like partner mapping and shared ownership can help agencies build stronger advocacy plans and create sustainable, collaborative data systems. Whether you're building a data modernization strategy or just beginning to rally your organization around the need for better systems, this conversation offers practical insights, clear examples, and a roadmap for getting started.Medications for Opioid Use Disorder Access Legal Map | ASTHO

There is a widespread idea that bingeing has “protective” value for the binge eater—protection from difficult emotions, pain, stress, and other problems. I remember believing this when I was bulimic, and I know how convincing it can feel. In this episode, I talk about why the protection narrative may be holding you back in recovery, and how you can learn to see that bingeing isn't safety—it's dangerous and it's hurting you. You can learn to recognize and dismiss the protection thoughts and realize you're much safer without binge eating. Subscribe to my email list (and get my free Inspiration Booklet!)

Technically known as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, or GLP-1, these drugs have been around for years for treating diabetes. Now it seems most people think of GLP-1 drugs as medications to lose weight, and these medications are so popular that for a time, supply could not meet demand, leaving many to seek compounded GLP-1 medications, which were more accessible and affordable. However, compounded medications are not FDA-approved, and there are questions regarding their safety and efficacy. What do doctors and patients need to know when considering using compounded obesity medications? To help answer this, host Aaron Lohr talks with Michael Weintraub, MD, an endocrinologist at NYU Langone Division of Endocrinology. Dr. Weintraub serves on the exam writing committee for the American Board of Obesity Medicine. Support for this episode was provided by Lilly.

Despite millions of us being exposed to psychiatric drugs, doctors, patients and families know very little about the harmful effects of psychiatric drugs. They know almost nothing about long-term harmful effects and even less about withdrawal effects. It's almost taboo to talk about stopping psychiatric drugs. Millions of people think they need psychiatric drugs because their feel dreadful when they try to stop them; but they don't need drugs--the need to learn to how to stop taking them. His new book, Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal, describes many of the reasons to stop taking psychiatric drugs and shows how to withdraw from them as safely as possible. Peter R. Breggin MD is a psychiatrist in private practice Ithaca, New York. Dr. Breggin is a worldwide leader in psychiatric reform who is called "The Conscience of Psychiatry." He founded the Center for the Study of Empathic Therapy, and has written more than 20 books including Talking Back to Prozac and Toxic Psychiatry. His new book is Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal: A Guide for Prescribers, Therapists, Patients and their Families.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Dr. Emily Cooper, Mark Wright, and Andrea Taylor talk with Maria from Buffalo, a longtime listener who shares her lifelong journey with obesity, psoriatic arthritis, and binge eating—and how finally understanding the science of metabolism gave her hope. Maria describes early childhood weight gain, joint damage, and years of restrictive dieting and food shame, then explains how GLP‑1 therapy (Zepbound) plus mechanical eating helped her lose about 50 pounds while eating more food, more often, and with more joy. Dr. Cooper breaks down the underlying biology—leptin, weight set point, the melanocortin pathway, and the impact of pain, sleep, and chronic inflammation on hunger hormones—and reframes obesity as a symptom of deeper metabolic problems, not a character flaw. This episode doubles as a practical, emotionally honest guide for patients trying to navigate a traditional health‑care system without a dedicated metabolic specialist.Key Questions AnsweredHow can rapid childhood weight gain, autoimmune disease, and early joint damage signal serious metabolic dysfunction rather than “too much food” or “not enough exercise”?What is leptin, what does “too low for your size” mean, and how does that affect hunger, weight set point, and weight loss?What is monogenic obesity testing, who might qualify for free genetic screening, and how can results inform (but not necessarily change) treatment?How do GLP‑1 medications like Zepbound work with mechanical eating so someone can lose weight while eating more regularly and with more variety?Which labs (fasting glucose, insulin, leptin, etc.) help uncover hidden metabolic issues, and when is a mixed‑meal test more useful than a simple fasting snapshot?When should brain‑active medications (such as bupropion/naltrexone combinations) be considered, and what trade‑offs and side effects matter?How can patients respectfully push for tests, challenge old “eat less, move more” advice, and set boundaries around weigh‑ins and stigmatizing language?Key TakeawaysIt's not your fault: Rapid childhood weight gain and early‑onset obesity often reflect serious metabolic biology, including rare gene variants, growth phases, and hormone signaling—not gluttony or laziness.Obesity is a symptom: Excess weight is better understood as a side effect of underlying metabolic fires (leptin issues, insulin resistance, brain signaling problems) that need proper diagnosis and treatment.Leptin really matters: Low leptin for your size can act as a biological brake on weight loss, and chronic dieting, under‑fueling, over‑exercise, and some high‑dose supplements can suppress it further.GLP‑1s plus mechanical eating: Medications like Zepbound can quiet food noise and support weight loss, but scheduled, balanced eating is essential to avoid under‑fueling, protect muscle, and support hormones.Pain and sleep are metabolic: Chronic pain and poor sleep increase hunger hormones like ghrelin and disrupt repair processes, worsening metabolic dysfunction unless directly addressed.Script your visits: Bring a printed list of diagnoses, medications, and questions; use patient portals to request specific tests; and practice simple boundary phrases around weighing and diet talk.Notable Quote“This isn't all just caused by diets and things like that. There was an original metabolic problem. It was amplified because of the food restriction and the psychology around it, but you are a product of cumulative insults to your system—not a moral failure.” — Dr. Emily CooperLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: https://fatsciencepodcast.com/Cooper Center for Metabolism & Fat Science Episodes: https://coopermetabolic.com/podcast/Resources and education from Dr. Cooper: https://coopermetabolic.com/resources/Submit a Show Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.comDr. Cooper direct show email: dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comFat Science is informational only and does not constitute medical advice.
If you've been waiting for a GLP-1 weight loss medication that doesn't require injections, special timing, or refrigeration—this episode is for you. Learn about the groundbreaking oral pill that could hit the market as early as 2026. For years, effective obesity medications have meant needles. But Orforglipron could change everything. In this episode, I break down the science, clinical trial results, and approval timeline for this first-of-its-kind once-daily pill that delivers GLP-1 benefits without the injection barriers. Whether you're needle-averse, struggle with injection site reactions, or simply want more convenient options, this new medication could expand access to life-changing obesity treatment. Episode Highlights: What makes Orforglipron different from Wegovy, Zepbound, and oral semaglutide Clinical trial results: 12.4% average weight loss over 72 weeks Why this oral pill doesn't require fasting or special timing like other oral GLP-1s The FDA accelerated review process and potential 2026 approval timeline Who benefits most: patients with needle phobia, injection site reactions, or seeking maintenance therapy What to expect regarding insurance coverage and access once approved Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

In this powerful episode, Carter Doyle – a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, survivor of conversion practices, and founder of Leaf Psychiatry – joins host Avik Chakraborty to explore how shame-based religious teachings and non-affirming environments create full-body trauma, especially for LGBTQ+ individuals. Carter explains why chronic self-doubt, shutdown responses, and spiritual wounds are actually intelligent nervous-system survival strategies, and he shares practical, shame-free paths toward regulation, integration, and authentic healing. Key Takeaways: Religious and identity-based shame isn't just emotional – it's a nervous-system injury that can show up as chronic anxiety, dissociation, body disconnection, and a deep belief that “something is wrong with me.” Your symptoms are not moral failures; they're evidence your body did its best to protect you in an unsafe environment. Healing starts with tiny pockets of safety: noticing bodily sensations, building supportive relationships, and taking one curious step at a time. A simple grounding practice: Pause → Notice what you're feeling → Ask “Where do I feel this in my body?” → Allow the sensation without judgment. Medication, when needed, is not a weakness – it's pain relief that can create space for deeper therapy, lifestyle changes, acupuncture (NADA protocol), and spiritual integration. The most protective thing allies (parents, pastors, therapists) can offer is curiosity, non-judgmental presence, and safety – not fixing or conversion efforts. Conversion practices and attempts to change sexual orientation or gender identity are proven ineffective and significantly increase lifelong mental-health risks, including suicidality. True healing integrates trauma work, nervous-system regulation, lifestyle practices, and (when desired) faith – all in a human-first, shame-free way.

Around the country, a pervasive question being asked: How can I afford my prescription drugs? The high cost of those medications, particularly very expensive drugs to treat serious diseases like multiple sclerosis and cystic fibrosis, have fueled a nationwide business in which insurance programs are using companies called “alternative funding programs” or AFPs that promise to get these medications at little or no cost to the patient. “RiskyRX,” a CNBC investigation, found AFPs are becoming more pervasive around the country as drug costs skyrocket.CNBC submitted nearly 100 public records requests and sorted through more than 10,000 pages of contracts, emails, invoices and complaints that show these companies have penetrated the country's health-care system through private employers, cities, counties, school districts and unions. In some cases, employers require their staff to use an AFP. CNBC traced the trail of medications from abroad to the U.S. via a supply chain that's not authorized by the pharmaceutical companies that manufacture the medications. The investigation features an exclusive interview with a Department Of Homeland Security official who says these programs should be shut down because they're illegal and post a serious safety risk to patients. A former high-ranking FDA official, speaking out for the first time, says these programs typically don't disclose the risks to patients. The AFPs strongly defend their business practices as both legal and safe and say their businesses are an antidote to high prescription drug prices. Those prices, across all drugs, in the U.S. are nearly three times as much, on average, as those in other high-income countries, according to a 2024 report by Rand, a nonprofit, nonpartisan research organization.

In this episode, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick unpack what it really means to “choose your challenge wisely” in your health, family, and business. They share a real-life story of a family navigating a child's “incurable” diagnosis and contrast the challenge of doing deep, integrative work with the hidden challenge of staying in the conventional, band-aid model. They call out how distraction culture, social media, and living by everyone else's “shoulds” pull you away from your true values, your family, and your unique mission—and how reflection, aligned challenge, and inspiration (not desperation) are the real path to a life you actually love. #ChooseYourChallengeWisely #IntegrativeYou #IntegrativeMedicine #FunctionalMedicine #ConsciousParenting #GenerationalHealth #ValuesDrivenLife #MindBodySpirit #HolisticHealing #HealingJourney #QuantumHealing #NeuroscienceAndHealing #HealthIsWealth #LegacyLiving #IntentionalLiving #InspirationOverDesperation #DistractionDetox #FamilyFirstLeadership #HighPerformanceMoms #EntrepreneurHealth 3 Key Takeaways: You can't escape challenge—only choose which one you're willing to live with. Medication and band-aids come with their own set of challenges: behavior issues, neurological inflammation, family disruption, more diagnoses down the line. Doing the deeper integrative work is also a challenge—but it's the one that actually moves you toward a healthy child, a healthy body, and a healthy family dynamic. Life expands when your challenge is connected to your highest values. When the pain and effort are tied to what matters most—your kids, your health, your mission, your freedom—the challenge becomes inspiring instead of draining. If you're constantly complaining, procrastinating, and feeling “over it,” you're probably working on the wrong challenge or you haven't connected it to what's truly important to you. Distraction is stealing your clarity, your presence, and your legacy. Living on social media, comparing your life, your business, or your family to everyone else keeps you out of touch with your own values. Reflection time, stillness, and honest self-inquiry are non-negotiable if you want to stop living by “I should / I have to / I need to” and start curating a life rooted in inspiration instead of desperation. Quotes: “You don't get to opt out of challenge—you only get to choose the one that leads you closer to the life you actually want.” “Life isn't happening to you; every challenge is a feedback mechanism redirecting you from desperation to a life rooted in inspiration and your true values.” Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube Apple Spotify 2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Welcome back to another episode of Warehouse and Operations as a Career. I'm Marty, and today I want to talk about something a listener asked a few weeks ago. How does one choose a career, and more specifically, how do they end up in the light industrial, warehousing, and transportation fields. One of the things I've learned over the decades is that very few people wake up at 18 years old and say, I'm going to be a forklift operator, or I'm going to build a career in a distribution center. In my opinion most careers aren't chosen, they're found. They're shaped by our experiences, opportunities, influences, and sometimes just plain necessity. But once people get here, once they get that first real taste of what this work is like, the stability, the opportunity, the teamwork, a lot of them stay. And that's what I'd like to talk about today. Let's start with a simple truth: most people don't choose a career the way a high school guidance counselor might describe it. It's not a straight line. It's often a mix of exposure, timing, skill, personality, and need. Let me try and make that make sense. Many of us choose careers based on what we've seen growing up. If your parents, uncles, or neighbors worked in a warehouse or drove trucks, that's what you were exposed to. If your first job was unloading trucks at a retail store or working seasonal shifts for a local DC, that experience sticks with you. My father was president of a regional catalogue distribution center. From a young age I was exposed to the warehouse, all the inbound and outbound chaos and seeing all the equipment in action. I was in DECA in high school, my junior and senior years I went to school half a day and then off to work after that. Distributive Education Clubs of America was an eye opener for me and helped point me towards a work ethic I still hold today. Anyway, I digress a bit there. What was I talking about. Ok, I don't know where I was going, I think I wanted to mention my first jobs we're in a warehouse because I had an in to those distribution centers! All that's a story for another episode. I think a lot of young people today enter this industry because a friend says, Hey, my place is hiring, or they hear that a local warehouse pays a few dollars more per hour than their retail job. That's what I mean by exposure. You can't choose what you don't know exists. Now, in our world, once someone takes that first general labor position or that first shift at loading trailers, something happens. They either realize it's not for them, or they say, You know what, I think I like this. And that's often the moment their career begins, sometimes without them even realizing it. Another major factor I mentioned earlier is need. Jobs are often chosen because someone needs a paycheck this week, not a degree three years from now. And that's one of the biggest advantages of the light industrial and warehousing world, it is accessible. You don't need an ivy league education. You don't need months of training. A good staffing agency or warehouse can hire you, orient you, and get you earning a paycheck quickly in a week. For someone supporting a family, or someone just starting out and needing to get on their feet, that's huge. A lot of careers begin because the industry said, we'll give you a chance right now. People also lean into what they're naturally good at. Some people are hands-on workers. Some learn best by doing. Some have great attention to detail. Others thrive in louder, busier environments. Warehousing fits a wide range of capabilities. If you like movement, there's selecting, loading, unloading. If you like operating equipment, there's forklift, rider pallet jacks, and PIT operation. If you're detail-oriented, there's inventory control and quality assurance. If you're a natural leader, there's a path from lead to supervisor to manager. Many people choose this industry simply because they discover, sometimes accidentally that the work fits who they are. We sometimes forget that personality drives career choice as well. Some individuals do not want to sit at a desk. They don't want to be in customer service all day. They want to move, think, act, sweat, accomplish, and see their results. Warehousing and transportation offer that. Every shift has a measurable outcome. Pallets moved. Trailers loaded. Orders filled. Goals hit or exceeded. For the right personality, that environment feels rewarding, even energizing. And this might be the most important factor of all. A single person can completely influence someone's career path. Our mentors, even unknown mentors, have a lot more influence on us than we may realize. Maybe it was a supervisor who said, you'd be great on a forklift, let's get you trained. Maybe it was a lead who showed you how to wrap a pallet right and said, you're picking this up fast. Maybe it was a trainer who spent extra time showing you a safer way to work and said, I see potential in you, you'll be able to take my place one day. That's 3 true examples I experienced. Those moments matter. They turn jobs into careers. They help people believe in themselves, sometimes for the first time. And then let's be honest, sometimes people end up in a job simply because it was the easiest open door. They applied. They got hired. They started. And they stayed. And there's nothing wrong with that. Many long, successful careers begin by chance. But what matters is what happens after that first step. So now, let's talk about why so many workers who enter this field end up staying and building entire careers here. There are a lot of reasons. Not everyone is meant for college. And not everyone wants it. Warehousing levels the playing field. You can start with a high school diploma, a GED, or just the willingness to learn. You don't need prior experience. You don't need certifications. You don't need years of training. If you show up consistently and work safely, the industry will teach you everything else. That opens doors for thousands of workers who want a real career but don't have access to college or technical schools or the time those commitments take to start earning. One of the biggest advantages of our field is that advancement is based on performance, not the politics. A general laborer who works hard, shows up every day, and follows safety rules and procedures can move from position to position quickly. I see it all the time. General labor to Forklift operator, Forklift operator to Lead, Lead to Supervisor, Supervisor to Manager, and Manager to Operations leadership like Director or Vice president. If you want to climb the ladder, the ladder is there, and it's real. I've seen people go from sweeping floors to running departments. I've even seen people go on to run entire facilities. That's the beauty of this career path, you can grow as fast as your attitude and effort will carry you. People sometimes think warehousing is just moving boxes. But as we've learned this last couple of quarters, this industry is incredibly diverse. There are roles in Equipment operation, Inventory control, Quality assurance, I should have made some notes here, what else, oh, Replenishment, Receiving, Shipping, Dispatch, Transportation, building Maintenance, and two of my favorites Safety, Training, many different Management positions, and even HR and recruiting. The variety gives us workers options. We can grow sideways, upward, or into completely new areas, all within the same building. What other industry can give us all that! And many entry-level associates discover quickly that general labor in a warehouse pays several dollars more per hour than retail or food service. Then they see the overtime opportunities. The shift premiums. And the potential bonuses. Suddenly, they're not just earning a paycheck, they're earning a living. I think this is one of the top reasons people stay. Warehousing and transportation reward productivity and effort. And that motivates workers to commit to the industry long-term. One of my opinions for free! Some people need to feel accomplished. They want to look back at the end of the shift and say, everything is all wrapped up. Warehousing gives them that. You see progress. You see results. You see the work you put in. You don't have to wonder if you made an impact, you can see it in the cases picked, pallets stacked, trailers loaded, and shift goals achieved. That sense of accomplishment always kept me coming back for the next shift. And It's a Stable, Growing Industry Let's face it, the supply chain isn't going anywhere. Even during recessions, warehouses keep running. Even during pandemics, trucks keep moving. People always need, Food, home Products, Medications, and Supplies. And as e-commerce continues to grow, so does the demand for distribution centers, fulfillment centers, cross-docks, last-mile delivery, and transportation. Workers like stability. They like knowing their job will still be here tomorrow. Warehousing and the supply chain offers that. And this industry teaches skills we can take anywhere, equipment operation, Safety practices, systems and RF scanners, Inventory processes, Quality checks, Time management, the importance of accuracy and Leadership and communication. These aren't just job skills, there our they're career skills. And once you have them, you're employable in almost any warehouse or distribution environment across the country. Another thing I've always loved about the industry is how Warehouses are often 24/7 operations. That means people can choose shifts that work best for them and the family, mornings, afternoons, nights, weekends, or rotating even schedules. For young parents, students, or workers with second jobs, that flexibility can be a major advantage. I feel, when you look at the big picture, people choose warehousing, light industrial, and transportation careers because they see opportunity. These industries offer that chance to start immediately, a chance to earn a good wage, the opportunity to grow fast and to learn valuable skills that can support our family and to build a long-term, stable career. And the most important part? They provide it to anyone willing to work, show up, stay safe, and take pride in what they do. So, if you're new to this industry or you're just getting started, or if you're trying to find your path, know this. You don't have to have all the answers today. You don't need to have your life all figured out. You just need to start. Build skills. Learn. Ask questions. Show up. Stay safe. Take pride in your work. As you know I could talk about operations all day, so I'll move on and say thanks for joining me today, and thanks for being part of an industry that keeps America running. Until next week, stay safe, stay focused, and keep building your career one shift at a time!
On today's Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective. In this episode, Dr. Jack starts with the century-long transition where heart disease wasn't really a thing to now being the #1 killer in America. Next, the slippery slope of lowering cholesterol through statins or other cardiovascular drugs. This usually goes along with a suggestion for a low-fat diet. Then, this can potentially lead to a cycle of invasive testing and prescribing of medications with side effects, then more medications to counteract the side effects but with side effects of their own, and then more medication. All of this happens instead of addressing the primary symptoms in the first place and looking into a sustainable way to address the actual issues at hand and treating the primary illness as opposed to chasing after symptom after symptom after symptom. So, what is a truly heart healthy diet? Dr. Jack breaks it down. It begins with eating food the way nature intended, avoiding “food-like” products and processed foods, getting supplements and nutrients from vitamins made from whole foods and made in nature, not in a lab. Plus, Dr. Jack still advises people should speak with their own primary care physician on truly necessary medication and the goal of eventually getting off of the medications because you are healing what is ailing you, not masking symptoms. Lastly, Doug joins Dr. Jack for a discussion on the truth about stress, good stresses vs bad stresses, and the types of exercises to help combat stress in our lives.

In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Marilyn Bulloch, PharmD, BCPS, FCCM, speaks with Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, President of the John A. Hartford Foundation, about her Norma J. Shoemaker Honorary Lecture at the 2025 Critical Care Congress and the transformative impact of the 4Ms framework—What Matters, Medication, Mentation, and Mobility—on age-friendly critical care. Dr. Fulmer shares her journey from bedside critical care nurse to national leader in geriatric health, emphasizing the need to adapt healthcare systems to meet the needs of an aging population. She discusses the development of the Age-Friendly Health Systems initiative, a collaboration among the John A. Hartford Foundation, Institute for Healthcare Improvement, American Hospital Association, and Catholic Health Association. Now implemented in nearly 5000 facilities, the initiative is supported by evidence from models such as the Acute Care of the Elderly (ACE) units, Hospital Outcomes Program for Elders (HOPE) initiative, and Nurses Improving Care for Healthsystem Elders (NICHE) program. The episode highlights the January 2025 adoption of a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services measure that incorporates the 4Ms into inpatient care standards. Dr. Fulmer explains how hospitals of all sizes can implement age-friendly practices using existing resources and how multiprofessional collaboration is key to success. She also discusses findings from a national survey from Age Wave and the John A. Hartford Foundation, which revealed that only 19% of older adults feel their clinicians consistently address all 4Ms. Listeners will gain insight into how the 4Ms framework improves outcomes and promotes functional recovery in older adults. Whether you're a clinician, educator, or healthcare leader, this episode offers practical strategies and a compelling call to action to join the age-friendly health systems movement.

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Kathleen Mills, a licensed professional counselor and co-founder of the Association for Mental Health Professionals (AMHP). Together, we explore the seismic shifts happening in the mental health field and why so many therapists are feeling disillusioned with the profession's current direction.Kathleen shares her journey from running a successful group practice for over 30 years to founding AMHP as a response to what she sees as the profession's failure to truly heal people. We dive deep into the mind-body-spirit approach to healing that challenges the traditional "neck-up" therapy model, discussing why medication isn't the answer and how the counseling profession has lost the trust of the public.This episode explores critical questions about professional integrity, the impact of woke ideology on therapy, and the rise of coaching as an alternative to traditional counseling. Kathleen doesn't hold back in her critique of how our field created the "gender affirming care nightmare" and social justice warrior mentality that's dividing rather than healing families. Whether you're a mental health professional questioning the status quo or someone seeking genuine healing, this conversation offers hope for a new paradigm in mental health care.Kathleen Mills, LPC-S, CEAP, CIMHP, is a seasoned therapist and mental health professional with over 30 years of experience. Founding LifeTree Counseling in 1992, she employs a holistic "Six Pillars" therapeutic approach that addresses comprehensive life wellness. As a spiritually-motivated counselor, Kathleen guides clients toward restoration and purpose with grace.Beyond clinical practice, Kathleen is passionate about supporting mental health professionals through PracticeMentors.us, where she conducts workshops and provides continuing education on business development, office operations, and ethical considerations for practitioners.In 2022, Kathleen co-founded the Association for Mental Health Professionals (AMHP) with Phillip Crum. AMHP emerged as an alternative professional organization for mental health practitioners seeking a platform that aligns with traditional professional and spiritual values, offering a new professional home for those who feel marginalized by mainstream medical organizational policies.A graduate of the University of North Texas with a Master of Education in Counselor Education, Kathleen continues to mentor associates and advocate for principled mental health practice.

Compounding Pharmacies – The Unsung Heroes Of Compounding pharmacies aren't spoken about much publicly, but they're a crucial part of healthcare when needed.

What does it mean to live with cystic fibrosis (CF) in Amish and Mennonite communities, where many families don't use phones, computers, or even electricity? For some, this means relying on handwritten letters for communication, trying herbal remedies before conventional medicine, and declining treatments like lung transplants or in vitro fertilization because of cultural and religious beliefs.Update State CF Center (Syracuse, NY) Social Worker Lejla Bush, who has worked with the CF community for over a decade, shares how Amish and Mennonite families navigate CF while staying true to their traditions. She explains the unique challenges, from financial hurdles without health insurance, to hospital care that must adapt to cultural practices, and the vital role of community support in helping families face this disease.Most importantly, Lejla reminds us that while the cultural context is different, Amish and Mennonite parents hold the same hopes, fears, and love for their children as any other family affected by CF.This episode opens a window into the powerful intersection of culture, medicine, and resilience.We did a Q and A with some people in the Amish and Mennonite communities. Thanks to Lejla for sharing so much information about the Amish and Mennonite communities.To see a letter of Q and A with one of the Amish patients click here: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/AmishLetter.jpg Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

A medication used by millions (including off-label usage for “longevity” purposes) may alter the fundamental pathways responsible for exercise adaptation. This episode reviews new 2025 data showing reduced improvements in vascular insulin sensitivity, aerobic capacity, and glucose regulation when the medication is paired with structured training. We look at prior evidence of blunted mitochondrial respiration and diminished hypertrophy, along with 2020 transcriptomic findings that paint a more nuanced picture.The goal: clarify when this medication interferes with exercise-driven improvements in muscle, mitochondria, and vascular function, and when it may support resilience during aging.00:00 – Intro00:48 – The Rise of a “Longevity” Medication01:31 – New Clinical Data Challenges Expectations03:34 – Earlier Trials Showed the Same Pattern05:05 – Resolving the Apparent Contradiction07:10 – Who Should, and Shouldn't, Use This MedicationPMID: 30548390PMID: 31557380PMID: 33071237PMID: 37928155

James McConkie represents the first guest from Northern Ireland on the podcast, discussing how cannabis laws differ between Northern Ireland (part of the UK) and the Republic of Ireland.Medical cannabis is legal in the UK only by prescription, requiring patients to have one diagnosed condition and try two treatments before qualifying for medical cannabis access.James began selling drugs including cannabis and cocaine after his father's death at age 13, followed by his mother's cancer diagnosis six months later, leading him into illegal activities throughout his teens.Police intervention at age 20-21 served as a wake-up call for James, prompting him to completely change his life direction and stop selling drugs while facing potential prison time.Isolation and self-reflection became key strategies for James to distance himself from criminal associates and rebuild his life through meetings and personal development.ADHD and autism diagnoses came at age 25, explaining lifelong challenges James experienced with concentration, food textures and colors, and social interactions that he hadn't understood previously.Cannabis provides significant relief for James's ADHD symptoms including impulsiveness, inability to concentrate, and autism-related issues with appetite and sleep disorders.Medication reduction from five prescriptions to two occurred after James began using medical cannabis through private clinics in the UK.UK law requires medical cannabis patients to use only dry herb vaporizers rather than smoking, despite allowing cigarette smoking which is known to be harmful.James's mother was diagnosed with schizophrenia, and he has served as her primary caregiver since age 23, adding complexity to his personal challenges.Night terrors and sleep disturbances from traumatic experiences during his drug-dealing years have been significantly improved through cannabis use before bedtime.Private medical cannabis treatment costs up to 750 pounds per month in the UK, with premium flower costing 160 pounds for 10 grams.James now works as a cannabis advocate, collaborating with Life clinic in Northern Ireland to help others understand medical cannabis options and transition away from traditional medications.

What happens when even surgery and supplements can't get a broken bone to heal?When Dr. Ben Weitz fractured his femur and was told it might never heal, he turned to the same principles he's used with patients for decades: ‘root cause, functional medicine' thinking. In this conversation, he shares how he designed a bone-healing protocol that combined targeted nutrition, vitamin K2 and vitamin D optimization, growth factors, and the right kind of exercise stimulus. We also discuss why bone loss and osteoporosis aren't just ‘aging issues', how testing like trabecular bone scores can reveal what DEXA scans miss, and why many medications block bone repair instead of rebuilding it. The story offers a powerful look at how science, persistence, and patient intuition can work together to restore strength naturally.If you've ever worried about bone density, fractures, or slow healing, this episode will help you understand what your bones really need to rebuild safely and effectively.Episode Timeline: 00:00 – Episode Preview01:35 – Podcast Intro 02:45 – Dr. Weitz's Hip Fracture Story04:40 – Rehab and Early Supplements08:20 – Deciding Against Revision Surgery09:50 – Understanding Bone Cells11:45 – Using Forteo for Healing12:45 – Why Monitoring Bone Markers Matters13:50 – Adding Growth Hormone14:50 – Bone Stimulator Protocol15:27 – Effective Exercises for Bone16:40 – Ballistic Loading Benefits17:55 – Bone Density vs Bone Strength18:37 – Understanding Trabecular Bone Score19:40 – Why Positioning Affects DEXA21:10 – Reading Full DEXA Printouts23:22 – Men Rarely Get Bone Scans27:02 – Bone Stimulator Options29:20 – Risks of Bone Medications33:50 – Considering Osteoporosis Treatment34:03 – Medication vs Natural Approach36:55 – Vitamin D and Vitamin K39:55 – Calcium Myths Explained42:27 – Iodine Contrast Considerations45:49 – Where to Find Dr. Ben47:22 – Podcast Outro47:42 – Final Takeaways & Dr. Eric's Closing ThoughtsAbout Dr. Ben Weitz: Dr. Ben Weitz is a Certified Sports Chiropractor and Functional Medicine practitioner for more than 35 years and he has worked with professional sports teams.
