Join host Justin Forman as he sits down with Dave Ferguson—co-founder of Community Christian Church in Chicago and the New Thing Network, which has helped plant 30,000 churches across 69 countries—to explore what it really takes to build a movement, why church planters and entrepreneurs are more alike than they think, and how "missional imagination" could be the missing ingredient in both the church and the marketplace.Dave shares hard-won lessons from decades of church planting, network building, and leadership development—including the leadership framework from his upcoming book Multiplier: How Healthy Leaders Create Lasting Impact.

Although he has a huge following on social media now, Jonathan Edward Durham's life as a writer used to be a lot more low tech. It involved locking himself in a room in Los Angeles, pounding away on screenplays that almost no one ever read, sucking back smokes and liquor, barely sleeping, and finding himself to actually be pretty miserable. He did manage to write and self-publish a novel, Winterset Hollow, that found an audience, which led to getting online to promote it. He started to write more online, finding an audience, effectively keeping a journal to understand himself and the challenges he was facing in his life and in his mental health. Jonathan left Los Angeles, met a guy and got married, and came to a much better understanding of problems he had been dealing with his whole life. The second edition of Winterset Hollow comes out this fall and Jonathan is at work on a new book now. We also hear from John Moe about getting mad, starting MADD, and how to interview the anger that you're feeling to see what injustice it's alerting you to. Of note, we kept seeing Jonathan's short writing come up in our Preshies group on Facebook so much that we eventually had to book the guy. Thanks, Preshies, you are all now associate producers.

Summary: In this conversation, Dr. Rick Parent discusses the complexities surrounding police use of force, the role of civilian oversight, and the importance of clear communication in maintaining public trust. He emphasizes the need for context and perspective in understanding police actions, the dangers faced by officers, and the significance of de-escalation techniques. The discussion also highlights the impact of mental health on policing and the necessity for a national approach to civilian oversight to improve accountability and public safety.Takeaways:• The most dangerous moment for a police officer is often routine calls.• Civilian oversight can either strengthen or undermine public trust.• There are several ways in which civilian oversight agencies need to improve their practices to help enhance public confidence.• Canadian police are reluctant users of deadly force compared to the U.S.• Clear communication is essential for public understanding of police actions.• Context is crucial in evaluating police use of force incidents.• The media often vilifies police without understanding the full story.• Timely responses from oversight agencies are critical for public trust.• Policing is an unpredictable and dangerous occupation.• De-escalation techniques are vital but should not compromise officer safety.• Mental health issues significantly impact police interactions with the public.

In this episode of Beth of Fresh Air, Beth welcomes a modern Renaissance man — filmmaker, teacher, actor, health coach specializing in the Love Your Liver approach, truth lover, a devoted student of his own psyche, adept in the work of G. I. Gurdjieff and Carl Jung.In a culture that prizes specialization — where the right hand no longer knows what the left one does — this conversation explores the forgotten art of being whole.What does it mean to develop mastery across domains?Physical and nutritional intelligence.
Mental and logical rigor.
Creative expression.
Technical skill.
Emotional navigation.
Psychological self-awareness.Not as hobbies.
Not as surface sampling.
But as disciplined, embodied development.This episode examines the difference between being “well-rounded” and cultivating true range — the kind that requires continually entering arenas where you are not yet competent, breaking new ground, and resisting identity built on narrow expertise.
Together, we will explore:* Why specialization culture fragments the psyche* Mastery across physical, mental, creative, and technical realms* Gurdjieff's work on attention and mechanical living* Jung's individuation and the integration of opposites* The creative process as psychological revelation* Why staying in your strength is a subtle form of stagnation* The discipline required to expand range* Wholeness as lived practice, not theory
This is not a romantic conversation about talent.
It's a sober inquiry into integration.What would it mean to refuse fragmentation?
To build capacity across domains?
To become harder to categorize — and more fully human? A wide-ranging, grounded dialogue on mastery, psyche, embodiment, and the responsibility of conscious development.
Beth of Fresh Air is a place to look deep and see widely, to play with perception and perspective, in service of evolving culture and the power of the human spirit.Discover deprogramming and archetype courses at www.bethmartens.comApply for a zero-cost, one-on-one chat about working together: https://www.bethmartens.com/awaken-your-journey-archetype-applicationFind out your King Hero Archetype in ten minutes: https://www.bethmartens.com/king-hero-archetype-quiz-sign-up ***MORE FROM BETHSign up to take a 5-minute King Hero's Journey archetype quizApply to become a member of the House of Free WillRumbleKing Hero Telegram ChannelTwitter (X)InstagramSign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype ReadingOrder a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness'Donate by PayPal if you're inspiredFollow the King Hero's Journey Podcast on... Apple Podcasts SpotifyIf we're just meeting...I'm Beth Martens—founder of the House of Free Will, pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and  business coach. My calling has truly been a life-or-death matter. After a decade as a corporate VP in my family's firm, eight transformative trips to India, and a three-year battle with cancer nearly 25 years ago, I turned to archetypes and deep deprogramming work to save my life.Despite doing everything wrong based on limited health knowledge, I accessed the hidden inner roots of what was keeping me sick, stuck, and unconscious. Letting those patterns go changed everything. I went from dying to living almost overnight.Today, I help people who love truth more than their beliefs—people who want to serve with their life's work and walk their Hero's Journey—to deprogram the beast system from within and stop unconsciously feeding the forces that harm us.I host the King Hero interview series, where I spotlight leaders, entrepreneurs, movement makers, and lovers of freedom who are carving new paths in a world that desperately needs them. And I also share my own voice, insights, and stories through my new solo podcast, Beth of Fresh Air.

In this episode, Asim, Amrita, and Sujoy revisit Kyun Ki — Priyadarshan's 2005 “romantic tragedy” starring Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Jackie Shroff and Om Puri — and try to figure out what on earth happened. Is this a misunderstood melodrama? A chaotic remake experiment? Or peak mid-2000s Bollywood madness? From mental asylum tropes and questionable Rorschach tests to lobotomies, disco flashbacks, and one very tragic swimming pool, we unpack the film's wild tonal swings and that infamous ending. Expect the usual Khandaan mix of nostalgia, sharp side-eyes, soundtrack detours (hello Kunal Ganjawala), and a deep dive into Salman's mid-2000s era — plus a comparison to the original Malayalam version that Asim heroically watched for research.

Mental health professionals have assessed the psychological condition of a mother in Tuscarawas County who has been charged in connection with the deaths of her 4-year-old son and 45-year-old husband at Atwood Lake last year, an incident believed to stem from a “spiritual delusionSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From a volunteer-run initiative in the 1980s to a regional continuum of care in 2026: On this episode of Discover Lafayette, we sit down with Claude Martin, CEO of AcadianaCares, to talk about what it looks like when a community builds an institution out of necessity, and then keeps rebuilding it for four decades. AcadianaCares began (originally as “Lafayette CARES”) in 1985, during the earliest, scariest years of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, when fear and stigma shut down many traditional systems of response. “CARES” stood for “Concern for AIDS Relief, Education and Support.” Claude remembers those first years in deeply personal terms: “I got involved with this work, HIV work in the early 80s when our community started to get sick.” He describes a time when an HIV diagnosis in Louisiana carried a terrifying prognosis saying, “the life expectancy was about nine months.” The uncertainty felt like a public-health free fall. When we talk about how frightening those early days were, Claude agrees without hesitation: “Very similar to the fear and confusion many of us felt during COVID. Who's going to get it? and what do we do now?” Claude explains that what became AcadianaCares wasn't a government-created program; it was community members stepping in when institutions froze. “It was a groundswell of people saying, I have to do something. We have to do something.” For years, it ran on sheer willpower. “We were volunteers, running it out of our houses. We all had full-time jobs.” Claude's own job then was far from nonprofit administration as he worked as a landscaper. And while the organization was being built, people were dying. Claude doesn't sanitize that reality. “Sometimes they came to a couple of meetings and then they were in the hospital; within a month they were dead. They were gone.” In those first ten years, he says, “We really were concentrating on helping people to die. We were there.” He describes practical, human-scale solutions built by ordinary people: a hotline routed into volunteers' homes, partnerships for training, and a “Buddy program” where volunteers went into homes to help with the basic tasks of living: cleaning an apartment, getting to appointments, answering desperate late-night questions from people who felt helpless. From there, the story becomes one of evolution, not away from HIV care, but outward from it. Claude explains that in the early 2000s, AcadianaCares started asking a different question: if HIV is the core mission, what are the destabilizing forces that make people more vulnerable in the first place? In his words: “Mental illness, homelessness, substance abuse are three of the big areas that really do destabilize people's lives.” That mindset shaped the modern AcadianaCares model: a system designed so that someone can enter through one doorway to have access to housing, clinic, and recovery, and then be “wrapped around” with the rest. The medical reality has changed — and AcadianaCares is trying to reach the whole community Claude also walks us through the medical transformation he's witnessed across the decades. “The pharmaceutical industry has developed all of these medications so that now life expectancy is open ended.” He explains how viral load suppression changes both individual health and transmission risk. When treatment is working, people are no longer infectious. He points to PrEP as a powerful prevention tool: “PrEP is about 99%” effective in preventing acquisition. The goal he lays out is ambitious and clear: get people living with HIV to an undetectable viral load and get people at risk onto PrEP. “Conceivably, we will get to the point where we have no new infections.” Claude shares the regional scope, then and now. He remembers: “There were 11 people in Lafayette Parish that were living with HIV in 85.” Today, he says, “we have 2000 people that are living with HIV in our region,” with about 75 to 100 new infections every year in the seven parish area. Expansion on the northside: “whole-person care in one place” We also discuss AcadianaCares’ expansion of clinical services on Lafayette's northside. Claude explains that the clinic model exists because they were seeing people newly diagnosed with HIV struggling to get into care quickly. “We were having a really hard time getting people into care once we found out that they were positive.” So they built a system where patients could be seen and started on care faster. AcadianaCares purchased and renovated Pride Plaza at Willow and Pierce, turning it into a primary care clinic open to the public. The clinic has a staff of 32 in its 8,900 square-foot space offers a full spectrum of primary care and mental health services available to both insured and non-insured patients. Dr. Clinton Young is at the clinic specializing in sleep medicine and complex sleep-related disorders. Moving clinic services into Pride Plaza also created room on the main campus for expanded substance-abuse programming. AcadianaCares developed Seasons of Serenity (SOS), a network of residential, outpatient, and sober living recovery programs. Clients in SOS transition from dependency to self-sufficiency through structured phases in a safe and caring environment that is free from discrimination. AcadianaCares celebrating its 40th anniversary and opening of the new Primary Care Mental Care and Pharmacy in February 2026. In our conversation, Claude describes the wraparound approach inside the clinic, not just medical appointments, but navigation help: “Our clinic patients have access to navigators who help them apply for insurance… everything from food stamps to finding other agencies.” He contrasts that with many healthcare settings: “A lot of people go to a provider, but they don't have the social services support or the wraparound support.” The MLK campus: housing + recovery, built over time One of the most substantive parts of our conversation is Claude's description of the Acadiana CARES campus on Martin Luther King Jr. Drive in North Lafayette: housing and recovery programs built through long-term planning, grants, and renovation. The site is located at 809 Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. in North Lafayette. “We have housing there and about 80 people live on the property.” The site originally housed the Lafayette Guest House, formerly a 206-bed nursing facility with an inpatient psychiatric hospital, Oceans Behavior Healthcare, was donated to AcadianaCares by its owners, Jerrine Harrell, Donna McPherson, and John Wright. The owners made the decision to donate the property, valued at approximately $3.5 million, in order to do something good for the community and also be able to claim a charitable donation on taxes. Catholic Charities of Acadiana’s Kim Boudreaux James is the niece of Wright and she helped identify AcadianaCares as the best fit for the donation. (For a comprehensive story of the background of this donation and how it transformed AcadianaCares, see https://theind.com/articles/842/. ) He walks through the arc of development: a major donated property, then years of grants and fundraising to renovate and convert spaces into apartments, and then major investments in addiction treatment. He explains that their Seasons of recovery program now offers “the whole continuum of care,” describing transitions from detox, to a 28-day program, to a 90-day residential program, then outpatient services, and supportive apartment options designed to help people stabilize, work, save money, and re-enter independent life. Claude shares one of the concrete, practical details people often want to know: the outpatient apartment option is “$416” and includes “three meals a day, seven days a week.” He explains the program design goal plainly: “in six months, you ought to be able to save enough money to be independent.” AcadianaCares’ Seasons of Serenity receive referrals statewide: “We get referrals from all over the state,” and adds, “we get probably 7 to 10 referrals a day.” The reality is capacity: “All of our programs are usually at capacity.” Growth that still comes back to one measuring stick Claude has led AcadianaCares through extraordinary growth. He recalls the first state grant: “$34,000.” Today, he says, “our board just approved a $34 million budget.” He notes scale: “We have about 100 employees here, and we help an average of 4000 people a year.” In 2025, 2,495 unique patients received care through its wellness clinic. Its reach is across 25 zip codes in Lafayette, Acadiana, Evangeline, Iberia, St. Landry, St. Martin, and Vermilion parishes. Claude Martin joined AcadianaCares in 1998, after serving as an original volunteer in its early days. “I felt called to do the work. In the early 90s, I went back to school and got a graduate degree in rehabilitation therapy. All my work was focused on getting people living with HIV and having that treated as the same thing that’s a head injury or a substance abuse issue or a mental health issue that would debilitate someone. That degree is designed to help as a life changing experience. to move them through that process and get them back into this life.” But one of the most telling moments in our conversation is his personal standard for quality and dignity. The question he asks himself when planning services and facilities: “Would I let my mother or my sister receive services here?” He connects that directly to the mission: bringing high-quality care to people who often don't have choices, and who may have been neglected for years. Advice for families facing addiction Near the end, Claude offers direct advice to families navigating substance use disorder. His first recommendation is simple and specific: “Join an Al-Anon group.” He explains why: “It's realizing that it's a family disease,” and stresses that the work includes shifting attention toward self-care: “take the focus off of the alcoholic and look at taking care of yourself.” And yes — he shows standard poodles Claude also shares a surprising personal and fun detail that gives listeners as we wound down the interview: “I show dogs. I breed standard poodles.” He competes nationally, and he says, “We won at the nationals last year; Tallulah won the best standard poodle.” It's a reminder that even people carrying enormous community responsibility have a life and identity beyond the mission, and sometimes a very competitive hobby.

When we were born, we we born perfect. As we grow older and life begins to happen to us, we can very easily lose sight of our perfect true self. But the truth is that authentic, true version of ourselves never really leave us, it stays within. Our true self, our consciousness, our awareness is always there observing. This meditation aims to help us reconnect with our true self through our breath.

The next era of player development will be shaped by the brain—how it actually works and how we communicate with it. This episode dives into shifting from more drills to smarter inputs the brain can use under pressure. We unpack the move from: · conscious analytics to subconscious recognition, · from coach‑dependent instruction to neuron priming, · from outdated reps to brain‑based techniques that transfer on game day. We make the big ideas simple and actionable: Explicit vs. implicit training and when to use each. Accuracy vs. precision and how it changes practice design. How to coach arousal and attention so athletes perform without overthinking. The “brain budget”—what drains it, what restores it, and how to plan around it. Technical and tactical coaching is strong. Physical prep is better than ever. Mental skills are improving. The next edge is learning the brain's language so decisions, confidence, and performance hold when it counts. I'm joined by Krush Favorite: Tim Nicely—researcher, inventor, and founder of V‑Flex Sports—to map how brain‑based training upgrades athlete and player development for coaches, athletes, and parents. This is the paradigm shift behind Creating more Coachable Players. There's a change coming. The question is where you'll be when it arrives. The 20th season of Krush Performance is in full swing!

Is it possible that the battles you're fighting didn't start with you?In this teaching, we're diving deep into what the Bible actually says about generational curses. Are repeated patterns of addiction, divorce, poverty, violence, occult involvement, or chronic oppression just coincidence… or could there be a spiritual root?Exodus 20:5 says God visits “the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generation.” What does that really mean? And how does that apply to believers today?In this video we cover:• What a generational curse is (biblically defined)• How sin opens doors spiritually• Why patterns repeat in families• The difference between consequences and curses• How Christ breaks every curse (Galatians 3:13)• Practical steps to break generational strongholdsSome of you watching have seen the same bondage run through your bloodline for decades. Abuse. Addiction. Sexual perversion. Anger. Witchcraft. Mental torment. Poverty cycles. Divorce cycles.But here's the truth:Jesus did not die so you could manage a curse — He died to break it.To sow into this stream Monthly/ONE time/ https://bit.ly/2NRIBcM PAYPAL https://shorturl.at/eJY57www.Isaiahsaldivar.com www.Instagram.com/Isaiahsaldivar www.Facebook.com/Isaiahsaldivar www.youtube.com/IsaiahsaldivarOrder My New Book, “How To Cast Out Demons,” Here! https://a.co/d/87NYEfcTo sow www.Isaiahsaldivar.com/partner

This week, Emily sits down with advisory teacher Rebecca Duffus, and neurodiversity advocate Lyric Rivera, to discuss the critical shift from viewing autism as a purely medical diagnosis to embracing it as a core identity. Lyric shares their personal journey of late discovery and the complex emotions that accompany it, from grief to validation. Rebecca provides some insight into the importance of authentic, affirming language. They also discuss how to empower autistic youth to advocate for their needs, navigate a world that isn't always accommodating, and ultimately discover the power of being exactly who they are. Rebecca and Lyric are co-authors of Autism, Identity and Me. TAKEAWAYS Identity vs pathology is all about framing autism as a core identity, rather than strictly a medical diagnosis or a list of deficits. Late-diagnosis autism often results in a complex cocktail of emotions, including grief, anger, and eventually relief. There is a crucial difference between forcing an upbeat perspective, and using language that genuinely validates an autistic person's lived experience. Equipping, not just protecting, will help autistic kids understand neurodiversity, handle misunderstandings, and utilize an autism identity statement for self-advocacy. There is a shifting landscape of autism support, language, and systemic challenges in the US, especially compared to the UK. Mental health professionals, join us for our next live 90-minute CE training, Inherited Neurodivergence: Supporting Parents' Identity Journeys, featuring presenter, Dr. Amy Marschall. The event is Friday, March 6 at 2:00 pm Eastern/11:00 am Pacific. It's approved for continuing education through the American Psychological Association and the National Board of Certified Counselors. If you can't make it live, you can still register for the self-study version. Rebecca Duffus, BSc, PGCE, MA, is an experienced Advisory Teacher with a background in psychology and a master's in Autism and Education. Based in the UK, she has worked across mainstream and specialist education settings, as well as with local councils, charities, and educational services to support autistic students and the professionals who serve them. Rebecca is the author of Autism, Identity & Me, a workbook and guidebook set published by Routledge in both the U.S. and the UK. She regularly speaks at conferences, develops parent programmes, and provides training and coaching for educators and schools. Her work centers on supporting identity-affirming practices and building inclusive, informed environments for neurodivergent learners. Lyric Rivera is the founder of NeuroDivergent Consulting and the author of the best-selling business ethics book Workplace Neurodiversity Rising, praised by Forbes as "an excellent 'how-to manual' based on lived experience and professional competence," and named a "Trend for 2023." A prominent voice in the neurodiversity movement, Lyric is also the creator of the popular blog NeuroDivergent Rebel and the originator of the #AskingAutistics hashtag, which has sparked wide-reaching conversations about the Autistic experience. Through their writing, consulting, and online advocacy, Lyric helps organizations and individuals build more inclusive, neurodiversity-affirming environments. Their work fosters connection and understanding across communities and empowers neurodivergent people to be heard, supported, and celebrated.

Mental health hotlines can be particularly valuable in rural areas, where there may not be any therapists or social workers close by. That includes 9-8-8, the national suicide and crisis lifeline. It launched less than four years ago and has already responded to nearly 20 million contacts. But support for 9-8-8 is stronger in some states than in others. Harvest Public Media's Michael Marks reports.

A small town in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia has been devastated. An 18-year-old killed their mother and stepbrother before entering a local school. By the end of the day, six students, one teacher, and the shooter were dead. Twenty-five others were injured. In total, ten lives were lost. In this episode of Stop the Killing, former head of the FBI's Active Shooter Program Katherine Schweit examines what we know so far about the Canada school shooting — and what communities can learn from it. We explore: Reported warning signs prior to the attack Mental health gaps and intervention challenges Canada's firearm licensing system How Canadian gun laws compare to the United States The role of online violent content What parents and schools should watch for School shootings are rare in Canada. The last comparable tragedy of this scale occurred in 1989. That rarity can create a dangerous belief: “It can't happen here.” But prevention starts long before a trigger is pulled. This episode focuses on awareness, intervention, and the practical steps communities can take to reduce risk.

Dr. Patel's personal experience from an Indian heritage to living in Africa, the United Kingdom and finally moving to America at the age of 26 years, transformed her into a global citizen. As a licensed, practicing psychiatrist with over 25 years of experience working with both children and adults, she provides guidance about healthy relationships and parenting issues. She is enthusiastic about basic tenets of personal responsibility and leaving behind a positive legacy.Between 2018 and 2020, major events profoundly shaped American life. The nation faced a surge in mass shootings at schools, nightclubs, and malls; widespread protests and race riots; and the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, which sought to combat racism and anti-Black violence. Catastrophic disasters—including wildfires, floods, and other climate-related emergencies—further strained communities. The Covid-19 pandemic brought unprecedented challenges, with political divisions emerging over public health measures and personal freedoms. During this turbulent period, many Americans lost their sense of compassion for one another. Mental health concerns grew as people experienced increased isolation, depression, anxiety, and overwhelm. Social norms deteriorated, and extreme anger often surfaced between those with differing viewpoints. Her books aim to inspire future generations to develop greater tolerance and resilience in the face of ongoing social, economic, and political upheaval.https://drshilapatel.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

Science of Spirituality PodcastFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCAST1. Why We Choke Under PressureChoking occurs when extreme stakes overload the brain's motor system. Research shows:* Large “jackpot” rewards (e.g., Olympic gold) can push neural activity past the optimal preparation zone.* Explicit monitoring (thinking step-by-step about an automated skill) disrupts fluid performance.* Moderate pressure improves performance, but excessive pressure impairs it.* Choking is often linked more to inadequate preparation than lack of talent.2. Three Science-Based Ways to Reduce Choking* Train under pressure (e.g., videotaped practice) to desensitize anxiety.* Shift attention outward if you're an expert (focus on rhythm, target, counting backward) to let automatic systems run.* Novices should instead focus on one simple cue, not the entire process.* Reframe the stakes — focus on process over outcome to prevent mental overload.3. Olympic Gold Medal Lessons: Team Chemistry & Inner WisdomTwo Olympic examples illustrate vitality principles:* U.S. Hockey Team: Built intentionally for chemistry and grit (“F-150 pickup trucks,” not Ferraris). Cohesion > raw star power.* Alysa Liu (Figure Skating): Won gold after burnout by reclaiming autonomy, joy, and intrinsic motivation. She ignored medal pressure and focused on artistry.Lesson:* Teams win through cohesion and resilience.* Individuals win when they align performance with authentic purpose and joy.4. The Vitality Zones & the 60-Day Vital SprintDr. Mishra introduces four zones:* Vitality Zone (energized, purposeful)* Surviving Zone (functional but unfulfilled)* Sliding Zone (declining habits)* Burnout Zone (exhausted, depleted)The 60-day sprint focuses on improving:* Physical vitality (exercise, sleep regularity, proprioception, inflammation control)* Mental vitality (focus training, limiting mind wandering)* Social vitality (cultivating closeness)* Spiritual vitality (serving something larger than oneself)5. Core Vitality Levers Backed by DataKey evidence-based takeaways:* 15–20 minutes of daily exercise reduces mortality and inflammation.* Sleep regularity may matter more than duration.* hsCRP (inflammation marker) may predict heart disease better than cholesterol.* Two to three cups of caffeinated coffee or tea daily are linked to lower dementia risk.* A wandering mind reduces happiness; focused attention increases well-being.* Purpose and closeness are modifiable assets strongly tied to longevity.* Spirituality (belief in something larger than self) supports mental health.Elite execution requires preparation, calibrated pressure, authentic motivation, and alignment across physical, mental, social, and spiritual domains.Dare to Be Vital.

What if the thing holding you back isn't effort, talent, or discipline, but what's happening inside your mind and body? In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh sits down with high-performance coach and author Brandon Epstein to unpack the hidden inner work behind elite performance. Brandon shares his journey from riding the bench as a college football player to mastering meditation, breathwork, and mental training that transformed his results and his life. Together, they explore why success doesn't always bring fulfillment, how subconscious beliefs quietly drive behavior, and why self-trust, presence, and emotional regulation are the real foundations of sustainable greatness. This is a powerful conversation for high achievers who've “won” on the outside but know there's something deeper calling.

Season 11 of Fixing Healthcare continues its shift away from the traditional top-down model of interviewing CEOs, policymakers and medical leaders to focus this week on something new, different and fascinating: listening to the generation that is inheriting this American healthcare system. In this episode, Dr. Robert Pearl and Jeremy Corr speak with Grace Lynn Keller, VP at Executive Podcast Solutions, former Miss America contestant and the show's first-ever Gen Z guest. Grace brings a rare vantage point: Professionally, she is immersed in conversations with healthcare executives. Personally, she is part of the generation that consumes health information through social media, wearables and AI tools. For healthcare professionals, the conversation offers an important lens on how Gen Z gathers health information, how they decide when to seek care and what they expect from clinicians, insurers and government leaders. One insight stood out immediately. When asked where she would turn first with a non-emergency symptom, Grace answered without hesitation: ChatGPT. Her answer signals how much the healthcare landscape is changing. While Gen Z may turn to generative AI for initial medical advice, that is only one piece of a broader shift. In this conversation, Grace outlines how her generation is redefining health, prevention and trust. Key insights include: Verification Over Blind Trust. Gen Z does not simply accept what it reads online. Grace describes a culture of cross-referencing, double-checking and comparing sources across platforms before acting. Prevention As Identity. Her generation emphasizes whole foods, ingredient awareness and minimizing processed products. Health is considered a long-term lifestyle investment rather than reactive medical intervention. Wearables As Standard Equipment. Smart watches and rings are commonplace. Continuous data on sleep, movement, heart rate and hormonal cycles shape daily decisions and reinforce prevention. Convenience And Cost Sensitivity. Time away from work, co-pays and scheduling delays influence care decisions. If reliable AI-based treatment were available for routine conditions, many Gen Zers would use it immediately. Mental Health As Mainstream. Therapy is normalized. Work-life balance is considered protective, not indulgent. “Mental health days” may frustrate older generations but are viewed as necessary boundaries by younger workers. Skepticism Of Bureaucracy. Insurance complexity is a major frustration. Deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums and opaque pricing create confusion for first-time independent users. Demand For Transparency. Grace compares healthcare to e-commerce: if nearly every other industry offers clear pricing and frictionless purchasing, why not medicine? Alcohol And Cultural Moderation. Among her peers, alcohol consumption is more situational and less habitual. Health-conscious decision-making extends beyond diet and exercise. Education Gaps. Public school health education was limited largely to sex ed and anti-drug messaging. She sees schools as the only scalable venue to improve health literacy nationwide. There's so much more to this episode. Tune in to find out what the next generation of patients expects from doctors, nurses and healthcare leaders.
