We have the first episode in a series of thyroid-focused podcasts today. In this episode, Dr. Anshul Gupta, Dr. Carrie Jones, and McCall McPherson join me to explore why Hashimoto's tends to become problematic for women during perimenopause and menopause, and the root causes that drive it. We explore molecular mimicry, the effects of heavy metals, mycotoxins, mold, and other toxins on the thyroid, and explain how perimenopause impacts thyroid gland and immune system function. We cover non-thyroidal illness syndrome and cellular hypothyroidism, also focusing on Graves' disease, which is due to a hyperactive thyroid gland, highlighting the standard of care it receives, preferred medications, and low-dose naltrexone. Dr. Anshul Gupta explains why so many women with thyroid issues are unknowingly living with Hashimoto's. He outlines the five root causes of Hashimoto's, especially during perimenopause and menopause, highlighting the importance of addressing the underlying autoimmune process rather than simply replacing hormones. Dr. Carrie Jones explains why thyroid dysfunction in women often emerges during major hormonal transitions like perimenopause. She also points out that many cases of hypothyroidism involve issues that we cannot resolve with medication alone. McCall McPherson discusses the challenges of diagnosing and treating Graves' disease, which is often overlooked or mistaken for psychiatric issues. She explains the importance of proper testing, sharing some therapeutic approaches that can help stabilize thyroid function and calm the immune system.

Rachel Earls, Ph.D., outlines the roles, science, and limitations of this powerful clinical tool for the selection of medication. This is a great guide on how an individual metabolizes many medications, and so it helps get proper doses for better efficacy and fewer side effects. It does not predict outcome, but significantly assists with treatment choices. She also speaks to the differences between labs that require a medical prescription versus the direct to the consumer labs. This is a fascinating scientific utensil. July 2024
On this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I sat down with Delia Passi, a three-time exited entrepreneur, women's health advocate, and the founder and CEO of MyCabinet — a groundbreaking virtual medicine cabinet that's changing how families and caregivers manage medications. Delia's story isn't just about building a successful business. It's about transforming a deeply personal, life-threatening moment into a purpose-driven company that blends healthcare innovation with impact entrepreneurship. The Crisis That Sparked a Movement Delia's journey into healthcare technology began when her elderly mother suffered a massive heart attack while Delia was 200 miles away. In the chaos of the moment, doctors urgently needed her mother's medical history — current medications, allergies, and past adverse reactions — but Delia didn't have the information. The result was sheer terror and helplessness. “I thought I was going to kill my mother,” she recalls. That moment became a catalyst for change. Delia made a promise to God: if her mother survived, she would dedicate herself to ensuring no one else endured such a situation again. That promise became MyCabinet, a smart, virtual medicine cabinet designed to securely store, organize, and share critical medication information instantly with caregivers, healthcare providers, and family members. A Track Record of Impact Before founding MyCabinet, Delia had already made waves as the publisher of Working Mother magazine, where she championed family-friendly workplace policies and launched the “100 Best Companies for Working Mothers” list. After battling breast cancer herself, she founded WomenCertified, Inc., home of the Women's Choice Award, which helps women make informed healthcare decisions and sets rigorous standards for hospitals and providers. While proud of that work, Delia says she didn't initially view it as “purpose-driven” — it was doing good, yes, but not with the intentional integration of purpose into every business decision. MyCabinet, however, was different from the start. Building a Purpose-Driven Company Determined to align her entrepreneurial skills with a deeper mission, Delia joined Amplify, a nine-month program from the National Christian Foundation that taught her how to embed purpose into every aspect of a company. She now applies that framework to MyCabinet through four pillars: Employees – Hosting quarterly retreats with space for reflection, gratitude, and shared values, fostering a culture where faith and respect thrive across religious backgrounds. Investors – Choosing only impact investors who put people before profit and share the company's mission. Clients – Taking a holistic approach to helping healthcare partners and institutions improve patient lives, not just offering a product. Customers – Delivering peace of mind for caregivers and patients by preventing dangerous medication errors and improving health outcomes. Blue Ocean Thinking: Creating a New Market As I often share with my clients, Blue Ocean Strategy is about creating a market space where none existed before — and MyCabinet is a perfect example. There was no “smart medicine cabinet” category before Delia created it. Like the leap from standard TVs to smart TVs, MyCabinet transforms a familiar object into a connected, intelligent solution. Originally, Delia planned to sell direct-to-consumer (B2C), but quickly pivoted to a B2B2C model, partnering with large health plans, school systems, and other organizations that could deliver her product to hundreds of thousands of users at once. This strategic shift saved millions in marketing costs and accelerated adoption. Lessons for Entrepreneurs Delia's story offers powerful lessons for anyone building a purpose-driven business: Get out of your comfort zone. For Delia, that meant reaching out to politicians and leaders she didn't know, which opened unexpected doors in sectors like foster care, prison healthcare, and schools. Surround yourself with the right people. Seek advisors, investors, and partners who challenge you, support your vision, and keep your mission intact. Be prepared for the unseen. Women founders often face additional hurdles raising capital. Delia chose to navigate those challenges without compromising her values or taking on partners who didn't align with her mission. Focus on unmet needs, not just your product. MyCabinet succeeds because it solves a real, often hidden problem — the lack of accessible, accurate medication information in critical moments. Why This Matters In an era where healthcare technology is evolving rapidly, MyCabinet stands out as both a life-saving innovation and a model for how businesses can integrate purpose, profit, and impact. It's not just about managing medications — it's about protecting lives, reducing caregiver stress, and empowering families with information when they need it most. As Delia puts it, “You can build a unicorn and still be an active, purpose-driven organization.” Her journey proves that the bottom line and higher calling don't have to be at odds.

Ozempic, a medication originally designed to treat type two diabetes, remains at the center of public fascination and debate due to its widespread use for weight loss. In just the last week, new research and celebrity commentary have deepened the conversation about both the benefits and potential drawbacks of this so-called game-changing drug. A study published by University of Utah Health early this week explored how Ozempic-induced weight loss affects a person's body composition. According to the study, while individuals can lose a significant portion of their overall weight on Ozempic, the reduction in muscle mass may not be as severe as previously thought. Most of the decrease in lean mass in test subjects was traced to non-muscle tissues, particularly the liver, which actually shrank by about half its original size in the animal model. The loss of liver mass may be a healthy component of weight loss, potentially reducing the risk of conditions like fatty liver disease. However, the researchers also observed that some skeletal muscles experienced as much as a six percent decrease in size and, most notably, these muscles could become weaker even if their actual volume did not change much. This raises pressing questions about how using Ozempic for significant weight loss could impact strength and mobility. The senior author of the study, Katsu Funai, highlighted the urgent need for robust human-based research to clarify the actual risk and benefit profile of Ozempic among real-world users, especially as its popularity continues to spread.Media coverage over the past few days has turned a spotlight on “Ozempic feet,” a term being used to describe visible changes to the feet resulting from rapid weight loss on the medication. According to experts quoted in a recent AOL report, several celebrities, including Oprah Winfrey and Sharon Osbourne, have reportedly experienced such side effects. As fat and even some muscle mass are shed, the skin on the feet can become saggy and wrinkled and the fit of shoes is often altered, sometimes leading to pain or discomfort. Though some of these changes are a natural consequence of losing substantial weight, experts caution that adjustments, including choosing new footwear or orthotic inserts, may be necessary for comfort and stability.The conversation took a more personal and reflective turn this week as Oprah Winfrey publicly discussed her own history with weight loss and the use of Ozempic. During a live WeightWatchers event, Oprah issued a heartfelt apology for having sparked unhealthy diet culture over the years through her previous messaging on her talk show and in her magazines. This apology comes after she acknowledged earlier this year that she herself lost forty pounds using a weight-loss medication understood to be Ozempic, despite having previously referred to the use of such drugs as “the easy way out.” Her frank disclosure adds a human dimension to the ongoing debate, underscoring the complexity of weight, self-image, and the tools available for managing health.Despite the buzz, it is important for listeners to know that not all effects of Ozempic are positive or enduring. Semaglutide, the main ingredient in Ozempic, has been linked in recent studies to significant muscle loss, particularly in women and older adults. Research published this week warns that when people stop taking Ozempic or similar GLP-1 receptor agonist drugs, they frequently experience a rebound effect, regaining a substantial portion of the weight lost during treatment. The extent of this weight regain varies but tends to occur consistently within weeks of discontinuation. Experts say that the magnitude of this rebound likely depends on the drug and the user's commitment to lifestyle changes during and after medication.As pharmaceutical companies race to develop new and potentially better alternatives, Eli Lilly recently unveiled that its oral weight-loss drug, orforglipron, could achieve double-digit percent reductions in body weight and offer a pill-based alternative to injectables like Ozempic. However, as with all medications, these advancements will need rigorous study to understand their long-term impact on health, including muscle and organ integrity.Thanks for listening, please subscribe, and remember—this episode was brought to you by Quiet Please podcast networks.

Prepare to have your mind blown as I unpack decades of research, dismantles myths, and unveil practical steps for a healthier life. What You'll Learn: The Real Marker of Risk: Discover a much stronger predictor of cardiovascular and metabolic disease risk than LDL cholesterol. Challenging Norms: Understand why relying solely on LDL cholesterol is like flipping a coin when assessing heart disease risk. A Game-Changer: Learn about the Framingham study's revelation that this measure is 3 to 5 times more predictive of heart attack risk. Impacts Beyond Heart Health: Find out how this ratio also predicts risk for metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes. Practical Steps: Explore dietary and lifestyle changes that can improve your key ratio, enhancing overall metabolic health. Key Takeaways: The triglyceride to HDL ratio offers a more accurate risk assessment than focusing solely on LDL cholesterol. Maximising heart and metabolic health involves more than just medication; lifestyle changes play a crucial role. Understanding your body's response to carbohydrates is key to optimising your lipid profile. The medical community's focus on LDL cholesterol is outdated—empower yourself with current research to guide your health decisions. Simple changes such as low-carb diets, exercise, and intermittent fasting can significantly impact your health outcomes.

[3:24] Triggers in ChristianityChristians often operate from a broken soul, meaning we have to understand how to address trauma triggers to further a more intimate connection with God.Reagan herself experienced trauma triggers in her early marriage and how God has helped her through healing.As Christians, it's vital that we renew our minds and understand the soul so that we can transform and heal.[11:44] Defining the Body, Soul, and Spirit[12:40] Michelle: “The soul is the mind, will, and emotions of a person.” The soul and spirit are distinct from each other.Many Christians struggle with the concept of being affected by demons despite being saved — although salvation came unto them, they have yet to heal.In the same vein, there's a critical difference between the regeneration of the spirit and the healing of the soul.Christians need to understand that healing is not a one-time event. It's a process.[18:45] The Role of the Holy Spirit in Healing Your HeartThe book of Isaiah proclaims Jesus' mission to heal the brokenhearted and proclaim liberty to the captives.The Hebrew word for soul is the same as the word for heart — heal the heart, and you heal the soul. [20:07] Samantha: “If we follow Yeshua, how do we heal the brokenhearted?...How do we proclaim liberty to the captive? So there's healing of the soul.” Healing the soul allows faithful Christians to walk in victory and power.[22:07] Understanding Triggers and Their ImpactA trigger is something or someone that reminds us of past trauma, particularly unresolved pain.A memory, feeling, or event can pull someone back to the moment of their trauma, “triggering” what they felt at the time; hence the term “trauma triggers”.Partners in marriage need to understand each other's trauma triggers to avoid — or even heal — conflicts between them.Michelle shares an example of a survivor of satanic ritual abuse whose trauma triggers were specific words.Christians should not allow triggers to control them but seek help and healing to respond as Yeshua would.[34:24] Medication, Healing, and the Word of GodReagan shares her personal experience with anxiety and the decision to avoid medication in favor of healing through the Word of God.Medication isn't the only answer to managing your trauma triggers. It's more important to address the root cause.Healing is a process. Medication can help, but Christians should not be quick to resort to it without addressing the underlying issues.Discipleship and counseling are powerful tools in the healing process. [38:39] The Fragmentation of the SoulSoul fragmentation is where parts of the soul detach to cope with intolerable trauma.Michelle tells the story of a child who fragments their soul to cope with abuse, explaining how this coping mechanism helps them survive.True healing is achieved when a Christian can integrate the fragmented parts of her soul.Only Yeshua can integrate the fragmented parts of the soul and heal the wounds.[48:10] The Impact of Satanic Ritual Abuse on the SoulMichelle shares a story of a survivor of satanic ritual abuse who was triggered by certain words and needed to reject the thoughts and choose to do the right thing.Survivors of satanic ritual abuse often have deep-seated triggers and need specialized healing.As Christians, we have to understand the programming and mind control used in satanic rituals to address the trauma triggers effectively.It is only through Yeshua that Christians can heal the deep-seated wounds inflicted by satanic rituals and abuse.[58:48] Spreading True Healing to Those in NeedNot enough Christians understand the reality of how spiritual healing works, preventing them from receiving healing. [59:04] Reagan: “This is real. This is real life. It happens. It's in our churches, it's in our small, little towns, it's in our big cities. It's everywhere. But we're not believing that it's real, and so those people are sitting there hurting, you know, and and not getting the healing that they need from their fragmented souls” We can be emissaries of that healing and a channel for God's peace when we join movements to reach out, like Pulse 100.Becoming a channel for God's peace is also a way for us to grow spiritually. About MichelleMichelle Young is a devoted servant of God, with over 30 years of experience in discipling and counseling those seeking spiritual healing and freedom. As a passionate teacher and pastoral counselor, Michelle specializes in guiding individuals through the healing of emotional wounds and breaking spiritual bondage through the power of Christ.Michelle holds a degree in psychology from Liberty University and continues her studies at Revelation Gateway Academy, focusing on ministering to survivors of satanic ritual abuse.

Her timeline is remarkable: Michele lost over 5 kg in her first 3 weeks on the 3 Week Body Reset, then 8 kg within the first 2 months. She reached her goal of losing 16 kg by month 5, and has successfully maintained that loss for 8 months.

How she's finally putting herself first, and inspiring words to help you do the same Michele's journey proves that even after 17 years of menopause struggles and hormonal shifts it's absolutely possible to transform your health and feel amazing, even in your 50s. Her story is living proof that when you address the root causes like inflammation from sugar and gluten, the results can be life-changing.

Without advocating for or against medication, we address the importance of understanding how it can play a part in the direction therapy goes. As therapists, we don't need to know as much as prescribers (Primary Care Docs or Psychiatrists) do, but we should be familiar with medication so therapy can include this critical piece of the puzzle. Aaron Potratz & Nathan Hawkins are behavioral health experts, licensed counselors, and clinical supervisors with over 35 years of experience. They each own a private group therapy practice and co-own a third one together. Aaron is also a business consultant for therapists in private practice wanting to start, grow, or expand their business. *Watch this episode: https://youtu.be/itDFsJHafXg *Now on YouTube: @shrink-think *Sign up for our FREE email course on overcoming fear and insecurity at: https://www.shrinkthink.com/podcast -------------- *Member of the PsychCraft Podcast Network* https://psychcraftnetwork.com/

In this conversation, Dr. Elizabeth Klodas, a preventive cardiologist and founder of Step One Foods, discusses the critical role of nutrition in managing heart disease and the challenges faced in integrating dietary changes into medical practice. She shares her journey from traditional medicine to creating a food company aimed at reducing reliance on medications through nutrition. The discussion highlights the importance of randomized controlled trials in validating the effectiveness of food-based interventions, the impact of pharmaceuticals on healthcare, and the need for a shift in consumer perceptions towards whole food ingredients. Dr. Klodas emphasizes the potential for a healthier future where cardiologists are less needed due to preventive measures and lifestyle changes.Takeaways:Nutrition is often overlooked in favor of pharmaceuticals in healthcare.Patients are rarely asked about their diet by healthcare providers.Changing dietary habits can lead to significant health improvements.Pharmaceuticals are easier to prescribe than dietary changes.There is a lack of nutrition education in medical training.Step One Foods aims to fill nutritional gaps in patients' diets.Randomized controlled trials can validate the effectiveness of food products.Consumer perceptions of health foods can be influenced by marketing.The food industry often prioritizes cost over nutrition.A better world would mean fewer cardiologists needed due to preventive health measures.Sound bites:“There is very little to no nutrition education for physicians. As I look back on this I consider this educational malpractice.”“All the medical evidence of what we should be doing is very heavily pharma biased, because guidelines are based on randomized control clinical trials.”“So there's loads of reasons why nutrition is not used in clinical care the way it should be. None of that is an excuse though, because it works and it's so vital.”“What if I asked you to like eat this food twice a day and I otherwise left you alone? What started happening is people calling and saying, hey, my cholesterol dropped 39 points. Then I'm like, okay, we're gonna subject our products to a randomized control trial. Let's see. Let's prove it. Does this actually work?”“If I reduce, LDL, the bad cholesterol across the US population by an average of 9%, I will finally dethrone heart disease as our number one killer.”“In that trial, we replicated what people were calling in with our highest LDL reduction was close to 40 % in 30 days. That's a medication level cholesterol reduction. And we did that with food, without turning people's lives upside down.”“It's not just the nutrient of interest that's important. It's the delivery vehicle. You can stuff a bunch of fiber into a Twinkie. But in the end, you're still eating a Twinkie, right? Food and nutrition is complex.”“At Step One Foods I take the complexity out for people. I take whole food ingredients, each and every single one that has data behind it in terms health benefits, and put them in my foods.”“We are probably the most overfed and undernourished society in the history of our species.”“If you truly believe in your mission, you have to ignore all the no's.”Promo Offer:Code: BETTERWORLDLink: https://www.steponefoods.com/discount/BETTERWORLDOffer: 10% off first order for both one time and subscription orders.

Thinking about trying Ozempic, Wegovy, or Monjaro? You're not alone. In this episode, Brooke unpacks the pros, cons, and common misconceptions around semaglutide medications for postpartum moms. If you're navigating weight loss, breastfeeding, or just trying to feel like yourself again—this one's a must-listen. What to Listen For: Why semaglutides like Ozempic are not safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding The hormonal impact of semaglutides and why that matters for moms What happens when you stop taking semaglutides without making lifestyle changes Real talk on the side effects—nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and more Why some moms regret weaning early just to lose weight What blood sugar imbalance means and how to fix it without meds When Brooke might recommend a semaglutide—and when she wouldn't The link between protein, blood sugar, and milk supply How semaglutides may decrease milk supply by affecting prolactin and oxytocin Why slow, sustainable weight loss preserves muscle (and feels better) Semaglutides can seem like a quick fix—but for most postpartum or breastfeeding moms, they're more risk than reward. Brooke encourages moms to first nourish their bodies with real food, movement, and sustainable changes. Medications may have a time and place, but not at the expense of your hormones, energy, or milk supply. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, and getting it right can make a huge difference in your energy, mood, and overall health postpartum.

What do a therapist dad, his adult daughter, and a live stream full of honest questions have in common? A raw, insightful, and often hilarious live Q&A. In this special live episode, therapist Tony Overbay, LMFT, is joined by his daughter Sydney for a candid conversation that covers everything from emotional immaturity and ADHD to family dynamics, addiction, and navigating a faith crisis. With their signature mix of warmth, wit, and psychological depth, Tony and Sydney explore how perception truly shapes reality (via the Dartmouth scar study), what it means to heal your inner child, and why we so often double down on what's familiar—even when it no longer serves us. You'll hear real-time questions and breakthroughs from listeners on topics like trauma, medication, parenting, and personal growth. Sydney shares her lived experience leaving a high-demand religion, and Tony offers grounded, compassionate insights on how we all carry parts of ourselves—from inner kids to "addicts"—that are doing their best to help us survive.

In this conversation, Dan and Kyle explore the complexities of modern life, the struggles of balancing personal and professional responsibilities, and the importance of understanding one's relationship with oneself. They discuss the duality of personality, the role of the inner critic, and the dynamics of optimism and pessimism in relationships. The conversation also touches on the happiness curve, the impact of medication on mental health, and the significance of empathy in navigating life's challenges. Ultimately, they emphasize the need for balance and self-awareness in achieving personal growth and happiness. Takeaways: The stress of modern life can be overwhelming, similar to historical stressors. Aging can significantly impact one's appearance and mental state. Understanding one's personality can help in career choices and personal fulfillment. Therapists often face challenges in separating their professional and personal lives. The relationship with oneself is crucial for mental health and self-acceptance. An inner critic can be both motivating and detrimental to self-esteem. Finding a balance between optimism and pessimism is essential for mental well-being. Life stages affect happiness, with a U-shaped curve indicating highs and lows. Medication can be a helpful tool, but should not be the only solution for mental health issues. Empathy is vital in understanding and supporting others in their struggles.
