In 1987, Mary P. Lovato, a member of Kewa Pueblo in New Mexico, was diagnosed with acute leukemia. To receive a bone marrow transplant, she had to travel more than 800 miles from home because specialized cancer care was unavailable through the Indian Health Service. When she returned, she discovered another obstacle: many in her community feared cancer so deeply that they avoided speaking about it altogether.This episode examines how cancer survivorship exposed profound inequities in the American healthcare system. Long before health equity became a national priority, advocates from underserved communities were confronting disparities rooted in geography, poverty, racism, language, underfunded healthcare systems, and historical mistrust of medical institutions. Their work demonstrated that scientific advances alone cannot improve survival if patients cannot reach, afford, or trust the care available to them.The story follows pioneers including Mary P. Lovato, who built the first national Native-led cancer support and education program for Indigenous communities, and Maimah Karmo, founder of the Tigerlily Foundation, whose breast cancer diagnosis inspired a movement to improve early detection, clinical trial participation, and representation for Black women. Their advocacy challenged longstanding barriers to culturally competent care while highlighting persistent inequities in access to screening, fertility preservation, navigation, and innovative treatments.The episode also explores why diversity in clinical research matters. For decades, many cancer clinical trials disproportionately enrolled White patients, limiting both access to promising therapies and the scientific understanding of how treatments perform across different populations. Researchers, patient advocates, and community leaders responded by redesigning outreach, improving patient navigation, reducing logistical barriers, and insisting that affected communities help shape the research itself.Cancer survivorship cannot be measured solely by scientific breakthroughs. It also depends on whether every patient has a meaningful opportunity to benefit from them. The pursuit of health equity remains one of the defining challenges and enduring responsibilities of modern oncology.RELATED LINKSNational Cancer Institute | Cancer Health Disparities⁠Indian Health Service⁠Tigerlily Foundation⁠National Cancer Institute | Cancer Clinical Trials⁠American Indian Cancer Foundation⁠Abramson Cancer Center | University of Pennsylvania⁠FEEDBACKLike this episode?

Ever notice that the trip home often seems shorter than the trip there—even when the distance and travel time are exactly the same? It happens so often that researchers have given it a name: the “return trip effect.” And the explanation reveals something fascinating about how your brain experiences time. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3179583 You're told to “take charge of your healthcare.” But how exactly are you supposed to do that when the doctor is the expert, appointments are short, and navigating the healthcare system can be frustrating and confusing? It turns out there is a lot you can do to get better care. Dr. Lucy McBride explains how to make better use of your doctor, ask the right questions, know when to push for answers, and become a more effective partner in your own healthcare. She is a primary care physician and author of Beyond the Prescription: A Doctor's Guide to Taking Charge of Your Health (https://amzn.to/4hAEoc3). Weather is doing things to you that you probably never realize. Sunshine, rain, heat, cold, wind and even changes in atmospheric pressure can affect how you think, feel, sleep and behave. Why are some people far more sensitive to weather than others? Can certain weather actually make us more aggressive or anxious? And why can a particular kind of day trigger such powerful memories and emotions? Dr. Trevor Harley has spent years studying the surprisingly intimate relationship between weather and the human mind. He is Emeritus Professor of Psychology at the University of Dundee and author of Head in the Clouds: How the Weather Affects Our Minds and Mental Health (https://amzn.to/4xN5L7v). Could you tell whether water is hot or cold just by listening to someone pour it? You probably can—even if you've never realized it. Hot and cold water actually sound different, and there is a fascinating reason why. https://www.thenakedscientists.com/articles/questions/why-does-hot-water-sound-different-cold-water-when-poured PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS MONARCH: Write your own money story with Monarch!

Many of us know someone who is in addiction recovery, but few of us really understand what that means. What does this healing journey actually look like? How can we best support someone going through it? We find ourselves worrying that we'll say or do the wrong thing, and we may feel hopeless or confused when our loved one continues to struggle with substance use. Caroline Beidler joins us to offer a compassionate guide for understanding addiction and the recovery lifestyle.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hayden Panettiere helped bring postpartum depression into the national conversation more than a decade ago. Her story reminds us that postpartum depression doesn't always look the way people expect—and that's exactly why so many mothers go unseen.Sarah and Whitney unpack Hayden's experience, the stigma that still surrounds maternal mental health, and why mothers deserve to be believed before they reach a breaking point. This is a conversation about courage, compassion, and what every family should know about postpartum depression.Follow Previa Alliance!Previa Alliance (@previa.alliance) • Instagram photos and videosPrevia Alliance Podcast (@previapodcast) • Instagram photos and videosKeep the questions coming by sending them to info@previaalliance.com or DM us on Instagram!

Talk to a HG Coach 1-on-1: https://bit.ly/46bIkdoDr. K's NEW Guide to Love, Sex, & Relationships is here! Order now: https://bit.ly/4dO3x0VDr. K's Guide to Mental Health: https://bit.ly/44z3SztHG Memberships : https://bit.ly/3TNoMVf Products & Services : https://bit.ly/44kz7x0 HealthyGamer.GG: https://bit.ly/3ZOopgQIn this episode, Dr. K unpacks the highly requested, real-world science behind his "penile retraining regimen". Moving beyond common myths, he explains why testosterone is often a red herring for erectile issues, how the physical habits of masturbation "train" the body to struggle with real intimacy, and provides a breakdown of pelvic floor and mental exercises that can clinically treat erectile dysfunction (ED) and premature ejaculation without relying on medication. What to expect in this episode: The Testosterone Red Herring: Why a drop in testosterone isn't the primary driver of erectile issues, with clinical data showing that only about 5% of erectile dysfunction cases are actually caused by low testosterone. The Role of Obesity: How endocrine-active fat cells (adipocytes) actively convert testosterone into other hormones, making physical health and cardiovascular conditioning far more critical than artificial hormone boosters. Death Grip Syndrome: How years of masturbating with a tight, dry hand grip trains the penis to expect 100 to 130 PSI of pressure, making it physically impossible to stay aroused by a partner's body, which naturally only produces 5 to 30 PSI. "Don't Skip Dick Day" Exercises: A breakdown of a clinical trial where targeted pelvic floor exercises completely cured ED in 40% of men and significantly improved it in another 35%—a therapeutic impact directly comparable to Viagra. Separating Orgasm from Ejaculation: A lesson in the physiological mechanics of tantric sex, explaining how strengthening pelvic muscles allows men to control the urethral pathway to experience prolonged pleasure and delay ejaculation. The Theory-Crafting Hack: Why performing complex math or theory-crafting optimal video game rotations (like calculating warlock DPS meters in Molten Core) in your head during intercourse is a highly effective, clinical technique to slow down premature ejaculation. Redefining Normal Timing: Why the average sexual encounter lasts only 3 to 7 minutes, and why the ultimate goal should be managing performance anxiety and letting go of the shame that kills erections, rather than chasing unrealistic, hour-long standards Learn more about your ad choices.

The One Line That Changes Everything Sometimes the door didn't close on you. It closed for you. If you're a high-achiever who's been taught that every "no" is just a "not yet" you can grind your way past, this episode is your permission slip to do something your ambition has never allowed: stay excluded. Because the burnout you're carrying? It's rarely the workload. It's the chasing, the emotional overtime you're logging trying to earn your way back into a room God already walked you out of. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why burnout is almost never about doing too much — and what's actually draining you The difference between being rejected and being removed (and why it matters) 4 real-life examples of rejection being protection in disguise What Scripture says about closed doors, betrayal, and repositioning The one question that turns exclusion into freedom instead of exhaustion Rejection Isn't the End of Your Story: It's the Repositioning Here's the pattern most high-performers miss: rejection is often protection wearing a mask you don't recognize yet. You keep knocking. You keep over-explaining. You keep proving yourself to people who already decided. And you call it perseverance, but your body is calling it burnout. The truth is, when you keep trying to re-enter rooms you were excluded from, you don't just waste energy. You override the very protection that exclusion was built to give you. "You weren't rejected. You were removed. And there's a difference, because man looks at the door, but God looks at what's on the other side of it." Ready to Pull the Root Out? If this episode named something you've been living, the exhaustion of trying to break back into a room God locked for your good, don't sit with that revelation alone. That's exactly the work we do inside the Premium Strategy Hour. One hour, just you and me. We go underneath the burnout, find the belief that keeps you chasing closed doors, and pull it out by the root. I only open a handful of these each month. When they're gone, they're gone, so don't wait for the next season of exhaustion to make the decision for you. Book Your Premium Strategy Hour - HERE Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Corrections officers, police, firefighters, dispatchers, and veterans often carry stress that stacks up quietly over years: shift work, chronic hypervigilance, moral injury, and the constant exposure to trauma. In this conversation, Mike Marotta explains why so many first responders feel safest with coworkers yet struggle to let their guard down at home, even with the people who love them most. That gap can fuel isolation, relationship strain, and unhealthy coping strategies. For anyone searching for first responder mental health resources, PTSD support, or addiction treatment options, the key theme is simple: you do not leave these professions unscathed, and pretending you are fine usually makes the bill come due later.Mike Marotta is a former U.S. Air Force C-5 loadmaster and San Antonio police officer who helped build a department-wide wellness initiative before moving into behavioral health leadership at Warriors Heart. His story is honest about the slow drift many first responders recognize: shift work, accumulating trauma, family distance, and coping habits that quietly turn into a problem.We dig into what makes Warriors Heart a true fit for the first responder, corrections, and military communities, including correctional officers. It is a 42-day inpatient residential treatment program built for veterans, active duty, and public safety professionals, with no need to explain the culture. Mike explains the interrelated model that treats substance use disorder and co-occurring issues like PTSD and trauma at the same time, and why peer community is not a bonus feature; it is the backbone. “Connection is protection” is not a tagline here; it is a plan.You will also hear practical guidance you can use immediately: the warning signs that stress is turning dangerous (sleep, weight gain, anger, isolation, increased drinking, risky behavior), how to start a compassionate but direct conversation with a coworker, and what treatment really looks like day to day. We walk through structure, routines, the powerful Lifeline process, and how families and careers can change when someone comes back healthier and sober.If this hits close to home, share it with a partner, a squad mate, or a supervisor who needs better language for tough conversations, then subscribe and leave a review so more first responders can find real help.Contact Mike: mike.marotta@warriorsheart.com If you need help now - call (855) 610-1003Mike on LinkedIN - www.linkedin.com/in/mike-marotta-96607754Mike on FoxNews - https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/heroes-need-help-four-signs-first-responder-strugglingSend us Fan Mail Command PresenceBringing prisons and jails the training they deserve!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Talk to a HG Coach 1-on-1: https://bit.ly/46bIkdoDr. K's NEW Guide to Love, Sex, & Relationships is here! Order now: https://bit.ly/4dO3x0VDr. K's Guide to Mental Health: https://bit.ly/44z3SztHG Memberships : https://bit.ly/3TNoMVf Products & Services : https://bit.ly/44kz7x0 HealthyGamer.GG: https://bit.ly/3ZOopgQIn this episode, Dr. K unpacks the psychology and data behind transitioning from friends to lovers, explaining why the traditional "friend zone" is actually the most successful starting point for a romantic relationship. Moving away from the high-stakes, dramatic gestures often seen in movies, he breaks down the science of social environments, the developmental stages of attraction, and why a grand confession of love is almost guaranteed to sabotage your chances. What to expect in this episode: The Friends-to-Lovers Blueprint: Why the dreaded "friend zone" is actually the most common path to romance, with data showing that 70% of couples start out as friends. You'll also learn why you must play the long game, as the average successful transition takes 21.9 months. The Open vs. Closed Field Dynamics: How dating apps act as "open fields" where physical attractiveness is virtually the only deciding factor. In contrast, "closed fields" (like work projects or friend groups) naturally highlight deeper, highly attractive traits like humor, reliability, and shared values. Small Talk is a Red-Flag Filter: Why the primary goal of small talk isn't actually to get to know someone, but rather a crucial "safety assessment" designed to weed out catastrophic red flags before you invest your energy.

Sometimes the feelings we cannot explain directly become easier to recognize when we meet them inside someone else's story. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Swati sits down with Nigerian American author and physician Nneka Oluoha to explore how fiction can create a safer reflective space for conversations around mental health, emotional struggle, family relationships and healing. Nneka shares how her upcoming novel, Live for Me, Nkem, explores depression, motherhood, marriage, cultural expectations and the struggles people can carry quietly behind closed doors. Rather than announcing everything a character is experiencing, she uses story, behavior and perspective to allow readers to gradually understand what is happening. The conversation explores why people sometimes remain silent when they are struggling, what happens when we recognize ourselves in fictional characters, and how stories can give us language for emotions we have never been able to describe. Nneka also speaks candidly about the emotional weight of writing difficult material. While writing from the perspectives of children affected by a parent's mental health struggles, she found some sections especially difficult. Her response was not to force the work, but to pace herself, walk, spend time in nature, lean on supportive relationships and sometimes put the manuscript away until she could return with greater clarity. Importantly, Nneka emphasizes that fiction is not a clinical textbook or a substitute for professional mental health support. Characters make mistakes, hold false beliefs and take actions that should not automatically be treated as real-world guidance. About Nneka Oluoha: Nneka Oluoha is a Nigerian American writer and physician. She completed medical school in Nigeria before moving to the United States, where she completed an internal medicine residency and now works as a hospitalist. Her writing is influenced by her Igbo heritage and an interest in family dynamics, identity, cultural expectations and the silent battles people carry. Her novel Live for Me, Nkem explores depression, marriage, motherhood, family expectations and hidden emotional struggles, and is scheduled for publication by Koehler Books on September 9, 2026. Key Takeaways: Fiction can create emotional distance that makes difficult experiences easier to explore. Recognizing yourself in a character can give language to feelings you have struggled to name. Human beings are complicated, and powerful characters rarely fit neatly into "good" or "bad." Silence may come from pain, fear, unreadiness or not feeling safe enough to revisit an experience. Stories can encourage reflection without becoming instructions for how someone should manage their mental health. Emotionally demanding creative work sometimes requires rest rather than more pressure. Walking, nature, supportive relationships and intentional breaks helped Nneka reconnect with her writing. Stepping away is not always giving up. Sometimes distance is what allows clarity to return.

The conversation turns to a hard truth: nobody is doing anything to stop him. Hawk points to Donald Trump's second term, the harm being done to others on purpose, and the fear that Trump and Republicans will interfere with the midterm elections. He calls out the Supreme Court for gutting the Voting Rights Act in the South and names it the most racist court of his lifetime, arguing that American institutions have failed and worse is coming. Woven through it all is a national sense of grief. This week the country lost Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, and Peter Cullen, the voice of Optimus Prime, bright presences who shaped decades of culture. Hawk closes on gratitude, his home, his dogs, and getting to play music with friends at 58, even with a busted knee.

A new school year is about to start in many parts of the country. Going back to school can be exciting, but some students may dread it. Perhaps they are struggling with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, abbreviated ADHD. How can you recognize the symptoms of this problem? What are the most common misconceptions? In short, what are we still getting wrong about ADHD? When we talk about distractibility, trouble missing deadlines, forgetting where you left your keys, it is easy to relate. Likewise, when we look at kids with wiggles and short attention spans, do we see a child with ADHD or just a normal youngster? What constitutes ADHD? Does everyone have it, or is it an all-or-nothing condition? Expert John Mitchell explains that many people have some symptoms from time to time, but once a person is suffering from enough that it is affecting their ability to function, that is when a yes-or-no ADHD diagnosis is made. At The People's Pharmacy, we strive to bring you up‑to‑date, rigorously researched insights and conversations about health, medicine, wellness and health policies and health systems. While these conversations intend to offer insight and perspective, the content is provided solely for informational and educational purposes. Please consult your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medical care or treatment. How You Can Listen You could listen through your local public radio station or get the live stream at 7 am EST on Saturday, August 29, 2026, through your computer or smart phone (wunc.org). Here is a link so you can find which stations carry our broadcast. If you can't listen to the broadcast, you may wish to hear the podcast later. You can subscribe through your favorite podcast provider, download the mp3 using the link at the bottom of the page, or listen to the stream on this post starting on August 31, 2026. What We Get Wrong About ADHD One of the most common misconceptions about ADHD is that it primarily affects little boys who can't sit still. While hyperactivity can certainly make a parent or a teacher uncomfortable, the inattention aspect of ADHD could be more disabling in many instances. Moreover, girls too may suffer with ADHD. Though they are less likely to be hyperactive, they can often have difficulty focusing. Another popular myth about ADHD is that it is a pediatric condition. People think kids grow out of it. What we are beginning to see with more research into ADHD is that some people learn effective coping skills they can use as adults. Nonetheless, many older people who were not recognized as having ADHD when they were children may discover that their impulsivity and lack of follow-through, accompanied by anxiety, depression or migraines perhaps, could be a manifestation of this disorder. Failing to recognize the suffering of neurodivergent adults is another thing we get wrong about ADHD. How Do You Treat ADHD? A third misunderstanding about ADHD is that prescribing a stimulant medication is the only treatment necessary. While drugs such as methylphenidate (Concerta, Ritalin) or mixed amphetamines (Adderall) can be really helpful, there is a saying in the ADHD community: the pills don't teach skills. They do allow a person to focus well enough to learn some new skills they will need. Nonpharmacological approaches are important in conjunction with prescription medicine. However, adolescents with ADHD are much less likely to turn to drugs of abuse if they are taking properly prescribed stimulant medicines in the context of a thoughtful treatment plan. What Is the Role of Emotional Regulation in ADHD? Pediatric ADHD expert Paul Rosen describes another assumption that we can get wrong about ADHD. A child may appear to be doing fine, bringing home As, getting along well in school. But he describes “duck syndrome,” in which you see a duck gliding along the surface of the water. The motion looks effortless, but the duck is paddling like crazy. If it gets into an eddy or a current that's too strong, it can't keep up. These students are working much harder than is apparent and at some point, they encounter demands they can't meet. How will they respond to that frustration? Trouble with emotional regulation is not always part of the ADHD picture, but it isn't unusual, either. Some kids with ADHD respond pretty much as other youngsters do, but some seem like a super bouncy ball. Their emotions go very high and very low quickly, but they bounce back quickly as well. Still other children may be more like volcanoes. When faced with frustration, they explode, and it may take them many hours to return to baseline. Focusing on Warm and Fuzzies Parents sometimes assume that impulsive or explosive behavior is willful, but that is another thing we often get wrong about ADHD. Most of the time, such behavior is emotional. The child wants to be a “good kid” but may not know how to deal with these extreme emotions. Dr. Rosen recommends unconditional positive attention. He suggests that when parents tuck their ADHD children into bed at night, they appreciate one thing the child has done that day and one aspect of the child, separate from the behavior, that is wonderful. This kind of affirmation can help a youngster keep striving for the skills they will need. (In fact, it sounds like a helpful idea for any parent and child, regardless of whether either of them has ADHD.) This Week’s Guests John T. Mitchell, PhD Dr. John Mitchell is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Duke University. His research and clinical work are focused on ADHD across the lifespan. He has published peer-reviewed articles and chapters on longitudinal outcomes and the treatment of ADHD, as well as recently co-authoring Mindfulness for Adult ADHD: A Clinician’s Guide.

In this week's podcast, Dr. Mitchell explains why people without ADHD react so differently to stimulant medication.

Many schools today offer mental health programming, but according to Carolyn Gorman, a lot of school mental health programming is not only wasteful and ineffective but also directionally misguided: School mental health programming often targets students who don't need help, pathologizes ordinary emotions, and fails to adequately help students with the most severe mental health […]

What if enjoying where you are didn't mean giving up on where you want to go?In this episode, my friend Robin Hopkins returns to Unleash for an honest conversation about ambition, success, entrepreneurship, and learning how to appreciate the life you've built while still dreaming big. We talk about why reaching a major goal doesn't automatically make fear disappear, how to stop constantly moving the goalpost, how to build self-trust through uncertainty, and what it really means to define success for yourself.From this conversation, you'll learn:-How to enjoy where you are while still dreaming bigger-Why achieving your goals doesn't automatically make you feel secure-How to stop measuring your worth by how much you accomplish-Why accepting that you can't do everything can actually set you free-How to redefine success as your life and priorities evolveIf you're an ambitious creative who is always thinking about the next goal, this episode is your reminder to celebrate how far you've already come. The life you're living right now might just be the life a past version of you dreamed about.

In 2000, Katie Couric underwent a live colonoscopy on national television following the death of her husband, Jay Monahan, from colorectal cancer at age 42. The broadcast demystified a procedure many Americans feared, led to an estimated 20% increase in colonoscopy screenings, and became one of the clearest examples of how public storytelling can change healthcare behavior.This episode examines how celebrities, journalists, filmmakers, and entertainers helped reshape the public conversation about cancer during a period when survivorship was becoming increasingly visible. As breakthroughs in targeted therapies, immunotherapy, and early detection allowed more people to live beyond cancer, public figures used their platforms to encourage screening, reduce stigma, and accelerate research. Their influence extended far beyond awareness campaigns, helping transform cancer from a private diagnosis into a national public health conversation.Central to this story is Laura Ziskin, the Hollywood producer behind Pretty Woman and the Spider-Man films, whose metastatic breast cancer diagnosis inspired the creation of Stand Up To Cancer. Working alongside Couric and leaders from entertainment, journalism, and biomedical research, Ziskin championed a new funding model that required multidisciplinary scientific collaboration, helping accelerate discoveries that contributed to multiple FDA-approved cancer therapies. The episode also highlights the advocacy of actor Patrick Dempsey, whose family's experience with ovarian cancer led to the creation of the Dempsey Center, expanding support for patients and caregivers beyond medical treatment.The story also asks what celebrity advocacy often leaves unsaid. Financial toxicity, caregiver burden, chronic pain, mental health, and the long-term effects of treatment rarely receive the same attention as dramatic diagnoses or breakthrough cures. As cancer survivorship continues to evolve, the greatest challenge may not be convincing people to care about cancer, but helping them understand what it truly means to live with and beyond it.RELATED LINKSStand Up To Cancer⁠Katie Couric Media⁠Dempsey Center⁠American Association for Cancer Research⁠National Cancer Institute⁠Dana-Farber Cancer Institute | Adult Survivorship Program⁠FEEDBACKLike this episode?

Dr. Paul Jenkins welcomes Marty Hofmann to this episode of Live On Purpose Radio to discuss a powerful concept: killing complacency. Marty Hofmann, author of the book "Kill Complacency," joins Dr. Paul in a conversation about intentionally creating the life you love by avoiding the passive acceptance of the status quo. Marty's insights draw from his own journey and highlight how complacency can quietly sabotage our lives, leading us to live on autopilot rather than with purpose. Learn more about Marty Hofmann and his work at killcomplacency.com.   Together, Dr. Paul and Marty explore how to break free from the drift of everyday life by making intentional choices. They introduce three "sacred questions" that serve as a guide to making decisions that align with your goals, being mindful of what your future self might advise. Marty shares his framework of the seven F's—Faith, Family, Fitness, Finance, Friends, Future Self, and Fun—as a comprehensive approach to living a meaningful and balanced life.   For those who find themselves too caught up in the whirlwind of daily routines, this episode serves as a timely reminder that life is not a rehearsal. Tune in to discover practical strategies for making small, consistent changes that can lead to significant transformations. Dr. Paul and Marty emphasize the importance of discipline, course correction, and especially the role of 'fun' in living a well-rounded life. If you're ready to reclaim your life from complacency, this conversation is your call to action. Visit the podcast at Live On Purpose Radio to engage more deeply and make a conscious choice to live a life on purpose.

In this solo episode, I share some recent reflections on showing up online, dealing with comparison, and learning to be honest with myself about my capacity.I talk about how I'm holding space for personal transitions, navigating social media while living with OCD, the pressure that can come with being consistent, and noticing when comparison creeps in. I also reflect on what it looks like to take breaks, to step away, and to recognize how our capacity can change day to day.This episode is a reminder that it's okay to slow down and to hold space for complex emotions that come up. STAY CONNECTED:INSTA: @trustandthriveTIKOK: @trustandthriveEMAIL: trustandthrive@gmail.com

In 2009, medical student Shebani Sethi watched a patient in a weight loss program make a remarkable recovery. The dietary intervention she underwent alleviated her schizophrenia symptoms, something the woman had tried – and failed – to treat with medication for years. That experience sent Shebani down a medical path that would lead her to treating mental health in a radically different way. Today host Emily Kwong talks to Shebani about the emerging field of metabolic psychiatry and how ketogenic metabolic therapy may treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression.Read Shebani's article on metabolic psychiatry here.Interested in more lifestyle science?

Send us Fan MailThe calls that keep coming back aren't always “police problems” they're often people problems that never got solved. I'm joined by Amanda Rizzoli, clinical program coordinator with Milford Police Department in Massachusetts' Family Services Unit and Community Impact, plus Detective Cody Carneiro, to pull back the curtain on what a Family Services Unit actually does day to day and why it can change outcomes for families and first responders alike.We talk about the “merry-go-round” every officer knows: the same address, the same conflict, the same crisis, and the same short-term fix. Amanda and Cody explain how the unit focuses on root-cause work across mental health, substance use, domestic violence, runaway youth, and family instability. That means connecting people to the right behavioral health care, outpatient therapy, case management, housing applications, shelter options, and ongoing follow-up so a single incident doesn't turn into a pattern.We also get into the bigger picture of community-based policing and co-response models: how school-based relationships help kids feel safe reaching out, how clinicians and officers support each other on tough scenes, and how partnerships like Community Impact and Chris's Corner create real options when a town is trying to help someone who is homeless or stuck in a revolving door of crisis calls.Then we go where it matters most: first responder mental health stigma. We talk candidly about the fear of being seen as weak, the worry about fit-for-duty judgments, and why leadership support can make or break whether people get help. If you've ever wondered what actually works to move a “ten years on” veteran toward support, we share the simplest answer: start with a real conversation and make mental health a normal checkup, not a career risk.Support the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast

Hey, Heal Squad! We are back with Jennie Garth, and we're picking up right where we left off…with the health secret she kept for years: her hip replacements. Jennie gets real about why she was embarrassed to tell anyone, what finally made her stop hiding, and we also get into the deeper work behind her memoir, I Choose Me, including why Jennie spent so much of her life dimming her own light to make other people feel bigger. She shares the simple words from a therapist that completely shifted the way she saw herself, why learning to actually love herself became essential to her mental health, and the tools she still reaches for when she starts feeling disconnected from herself (think mirror work, journaling, “joy boards,”and vision boards). Plus! Jennie reveals a surprising new health diagnosis she just discovered, gets candid about menopause and the HRT “trifecta” that's working for her, and tells us why saying NO has become one of her biggest forms of self-care. And wait until you hear what she says about Dancing with the Stars…would she EVER do it again?!We also talk about the next evolution of I Choose Me, from building Me by Jennie Garth alongside her daughter to expanding into the home, and why everything Jennie says yes to these days has to have one thing in common: purpose.So many laughs, so many takeaways, and so many reminders that choosing yourself isn't selfish…it might just be the thing that brings you back to YOU. Enjoy, Heal Squad! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Stop Dimming Your Light to Make Other People Feel Bigger: Jennie spent years making herself smaller and eventually realized she was allowed to be proud of who she was. A therapist telling her “it's okay to be amazing” helped change the way she viewed self-love, not as selfish or egotistical, but as essential to her mental health. Knowing What Makes You Happy Isn't Enough, You Have to Take Action: Jennie uses journaling, mirror work, a “joy board” filled with simple things that make her happy, and vision boards to reconnect with herself. Her biggest lesson: you can think about changing forever, but eventually you have to actually do something, and then stay persistent and consistent. Every “No” Makes the Next One Easier: Jennie is much more selective about the work she accepts now, choosing projects based on whether they feel meaningful enough to take her away from her family, home and life. Saying no still scares her, but every time she does it and realizes the world keeps turning, the boundary gets easier.
