In this episode, Dr. Kelly Sandberg, Chief Medical Quality Officer and Pediatric Gastroenterologist at Dayton Children's, and Dr. Katherine Winner, Division Chief of Psychiatry at Dayton Children's, discuss the quality improvement initiatives driving lower mental health readmissions. They share how individualized programming, follow up calls, standardized processes, and collaboration are strengthening care across inpatient and crisis settings.

In this timely and necessary conversation, we speak with Soad Tabrizi, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of clinical experience and the founder of Conservative Counselors—a growing directory connecting clients with reality-based therapists who reject ideological capture in mental health. Together, we explore what the term “Conservative Counselors” actually means, why it has emerged, and why it matters in today's therapeutic landscape. Soad explains how increasing ideological pressure within the counseling profession has left many clinicians and clients feeling unseen, unheard, or silenced—and why intellectual diversity and moral courage are essential for ethical, effective therapy. In this episode, we discuss: What defines a Conservative Counselor (and what it does not) How ideology has shaped modern therapy culture Why clients are actively seeking therapists grounded in realism, truth, and personal responsibility The risks of ideological conformity for both clinicians and mental health outcomes How restoring balance, integrity, and open inquiry can strengthen the profession Soad writes on Substack and for Human Events, where she unapologetically argues that conservative clinicians not only belong in mental health—but play a vital role in its future. Her work centers on truth, courage, and protecting the therapeutic space as one of genuine inquiry rather than indoctrination. This episode is for clinicians, clients, students, and anyone concerned with the future of mental health care and the importance of preserving therapeutic neutrality, honesty, and human dignity.   Mental health conditions, such as depression or anxiety, are real, common and treatable.

Dr. Michael Gervais has experienced firsthand how human psychology can break down under pressure. As a teenage competitive surfer, the fear of judgment sabotaged his performance, revealing how mental barriers, not physical skills, silently limit confidence and potential. That early insight led him to study psychology and spend over 25 years helping elite athletes, entrepreneurs, and high performers train their minds. In this episode, Dr. Michael shares proven mental skills to overcome fear of other people's opinions, build confidence from within, and unlock peak performance.

He has worked with world record holders, Olympians, internationally acclaimed artists and musicians, MVPs from every major sport, and Fortune 100 CEOs to optimize mindset and performance.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed T.M. Robinson-Mosley. Summary of the Interview: Dr. T.M. Robinson-Mosley on Money Making Conversations Masterclass Dr. T.M. Robinson-Mosley—founder of The Playbook, an award‑winning mental‑health‑performance sports‑tech company—joins Rushion McDonald to discuss how her platform is transforming athlete care, team culture, and performance measurement. The Playbook uses AI‑powered, gamified psychological assessments to measure stress, resilience, and overall mental well‑being across youth, collegiate, professional, and military sports environments. Mosley explains how mental health—long treated as unmeasurable and stigmatized—is finally becoming trackable, private, and actionable. The Playbook provides real‑time alerts, data‑driven insights, and ecosystem‑wide tools for coaches, trainers, clinicians, and entire organizations. She also shares her journey as a non‑coding tech founder, the scaling challenges brought on by the pandemic, and the broader impact The Playbook is poised to have across corporate, construction, military, and other high‑stress fields. Purpose of the Interview 1. Introduce and explain The Playbook To present The Playbook as a next‑generation mental health performance platform that quantifies mental well‑being, provides action plans, and enhances team culture. 2. Elevate the conversation around athlete mental health Mosley breaks down stigma, highlights real athlete stories, and explains why mental analytics are as critical as physical analytics. 3. Show how the platform uses technology to prevent crises The Playbook provides early detection, privacy protection, and immediate care support—catching problems before they become crises. 4. Highlight the expansion beyond sports Although built in sports, the platform is already being requested by industries like construction, healthcare, first responders, and more. ] 5. Demonstrate the business model As a SaaS B2B platform, The Playbook sells licensed subscriptions to organizations, teams, and associations. Key Takeaways 1. Mental health can be measured—and must be The Playbook converts psychological assessments into quantifiable metrics similar to heart rate or step count.Athletes receive resilience, stress, and well‑being scores—like a “mental batting average.” 2. The platform offers real-time alerts If an athlete’s score enters the “red zone,” coaches/clinicians receive immediate alerts with steps to take within 24 hours. 3. Privacy is paramount The Playbook is HIPAA‑compliant, mobile, secure, and built to protect athlete data from misuse (e.g., contract negotiations). 4. Mental analytics are the next frontier of sports Teams already use physical analytics. Now they can use mental analytics to track performance, prevent burnout, and reduce crises. 5. Built for the entire ecosystem—not just athletes Coaches, front offices, sports medicine staff, and military leadership also use the platform—promoting culture-wide mental health. 6. The Playbook is expanding beyond sports Industries with high stress—construction, medicine, law, emergency responders, veterinarians—are already approaching Mosley to adapt the system. 7. A critical solution for underserved communities The platform makes mental health care accessible, private, digital, and stigma‑free—especially for youth and communities of color. 8. Performance is universal Whether you’re an athlete, military member, parent, or worker—your mental state impacts how you perform. Performance is “agnostic.” [ 9.

ROBINSON MOSLEY | Txt] Notable Quotes On what The Playbook does “We measure mental health metrics like resilience, stress and overall well‑being using gamified psych assessments.” “Mental health becomes measurable—like a batting average.” [ On why athletes need this “Elite athletes report battling depression and anxiety so severe they find it difficult to function, let alone perform.” On the power of technology “If we don’t measure something, we’re saying it doesn’t matter.” “We use AI and machine learning to quantify mental health status.” On privacy “We are a HIPAA‑compliant platform… we don’t sell your data.” On team culture “Building a winning team culture is everybody’s everyday work.” On mental and physical health “If you are not mentally healthy, you are not able to perform at the highest level.” On the future outside sports “Who doesn’t want to train like an athlete?” “Performance is agnostic.” On purpose “How do we make something exclusive accessible?” “This is mental health care—it’s just a different version of it.” In One Sentence The interview reveals how Dr. T.M. Robinson-Mosley’s Playbook uses AI‑driven mental health metrics to revolutionize athlete care, provide real‑time performance insights, and expand mental wellness tools far beyond sports into everyday life. #SHMS #STRAW #BEST Just let me know!Support the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are countless reasons why a parent might choose to step away from their career to stay home and raise their kids—financial considerations, personal values, or simply wanting to be more present during those formative years. But even in 2026, most people still assume it'll be Mom who makes that move. Enter Shannon Carpenter: a stay-at-home dad of three who traded investigating elder abuse for state agencies for full-time parenting almost 20 years ago, and has never looked back. Shannon is the author of The Ultimate Stay-at-Home Dad (Penguin Random House), a humorous, heartfelt guide for dads navigating the world of primary caregiving. He opens up about fighting isolation, bucking stereotypes, and how he has redefined success and identity in his life. Listen to the end for Kisses & Disses!Topics include:•  The decision-making process behind becoming a stay-at-home dad and challenging traditional gender norms.•  Navigating isolation, building community, and the importance of friendships for at-home fathers.•  Strategies for connecting with teenagers and adapting parenting styles for different phases and individual children.•  Mental health for dads: separating personal identity from the parenting role and prioritizing self-care.•  Societal perceptions of stay-at-home dads and ongoing barriers to equality in caregiving roles.•  The impact of workplace policies, cultural changes, and paid family leave on modern fatherhood.•  Writing "The Ultimate Stay-at-Home Dad" and advocating for actionable, practical advice for fathers.•  And more!LINKSShannon Carpenter (homepage)The Ultimate Stay At Home Dad (Bookshop.org)Shannon Carpenter (Instagram)Caspar BabypantsSpencer AlbeeModern Dadhood (website)AdamFlaherty.tvStuffed Animal (Marc's kids' music)MD (Instagram)MD (Facebook)MD (YouTube)MD (TikTok) #moderndadhood #fatherhood #parenthood #parenting #parentingpodcast #dadding #dadpodcast

Behind the sterile veil of the modern asylum, a dark reality hides where clinical charts meet ancient malice. We descend into the darkness with Dr. Aaron Cowgill, author of Thou Art Mad, to expose the harrowing intersection of spiritual warfare and mental health. From the "lunatic" accusations leveled against Christ to the modern psychiatric ward, we explore whether the "voices" are fractured echoes or predatory guests who have overstayed their welcome. We cross the bleeding line between a medical emergency and a spiritual siege to uncover the jarring reality of ancient spirits masquerading as modern decay. Prepare yourself for a journey into the dark heart of the human soul, where the verdict is anything but clinical.Support the show

We know that people will lie. We know that people will say hurtful things because they've been hurt. We know that what people say about us can have absolutely nothing to do with us. And we know that people judge, blame, and criticize in ways that have no relationship to the truth.So why then do their words hurt so much? Why do we suffer so deeply when people slander us? And why do we take things so personally that are in no way personal?It's because our mind can know something, but unless our subconscious mind and body know it too, we don't really know it. We only know it intellectually, but deep down in our gut we are clueless.In this podcast, I share my own struggles with being misunderstood. I talk about how I overcame people's lies, judgments, and cruelties. And I share the simple, profound, and easy ways we can all understand at the deepest level that other people's thoughts and words are none of our concern.Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living.

Welcome to Being a Parent is Hard! In this week's episode we take a deep dive into the anxiety-producing topic of mental health and emotional stressors facing new college students. Whether it's choosing a college, deciding on a major, finding a roommate,, or acclimating to dormitory living, the start of college can be a stressful time. And there's the transition to living away from home which includes self-care, setting appropriate limits for yourself, and managing social and academic pressures--all of which can be a source of stress for new college students. Add to that the ever present stressors connected to alcohol, sex and drugs, and it easy to understand why depression and anxiety are so widespread among our older teens. We hope you can join us as we discuss the pressures and struggles facing our college students and how we as parents can help.Contact us at: beingaparentishardpodcast@gmail.com

Recorded live at Expert Networking Night, Jimmy sits down with Dr. Nick Howland to discuss his new memoir, The Atheist's Prayer: A Memoir of Gratitude. Nick shares his story of growing up in the LDS faith, serving a mission, being excommunicated twice, losing his identity, and ultimately walking away from belief altogether.What followed was years of anger, depression, shame, and a deep search for meaning that eventually led him back to something unexpected: self-love.This conversation isn't about attacking religion or defending atheism. It's about what happens when the systems you relied on to define your worth fall apart, and you're forced to rebuild from the ground up.Nick talks openly about divorce, suicidal thoughts, depression, therapy, men's work, brotherhood, and the daily practices that helped him learn how to keep promises to himself.They discuss why self-love can't be outsourced to religion, relationships, or self-help, how integrity is built one decision at a time, and why healing requires honesty, support, and personal responsibility. This is a raw, vulnerable conversation about shame, growth, and becoming someone you respect.

Why do certain student behaviors trigger an intense emotional reaction in us? According to Maria Munro-Schuster, it often has less to do with the child and more to do with our own history. In this episode, Emily sits down with Maria, a licensed clinical professional counselor and author of the new book, The Empathetic Classroom: How a Mental Health Mindset Can Support Your Students and You, to discuss the gap between therapeutic insight and the reality of the classroom. They talk about the use of the term "Mental Health Mindset" to describe a way of being that prioritizes nervous system regulation over behavior management. They also discuss complex topics like counter-transference (how our own past influences our reactions to students), and neuroception (how our bodies scan for safety), and provide guidance on how to set flexible boundaries that protect both the adult and the child. TAKEAWAYS Educators' own histories and emotional patterns can dictate their reactions to students. Safety is a prerequisite for learning. There's an important distinction between flexible and rigid boundaries. While teachers are not therapists, they are the "first responders" to student emotions, therefore need the tools to handle that responsibility without burning out. Therapists, register now for the continuing education course, Get It Done: How to Help Clients with ADHD (& Others) Improve Productivity. Dr. Ari Tuckman will join Emily for this APA and NBCC approved 1.5 hour continuing education training on Friday, February 6. Register before February 2 for an early-bird bonus as well. Maria Munro-Schuster is a licensed clinical professional counselor and former K-12 and university teacher who spent more than a decade in the classroom before transitioning to mental health work. She practices at Mango Beetle Counseling in Bozeman, Montana, where she blends her background in teaching, writing, and psychology. She is the author of The Empathetic Classroom: How a Mental Health Mindset Can Support Your Students and You.

I tried to record a normal episode today. I couldn't. I sat down to talk about creativity like I usually do, and instead I found myself overwhelmed, heartbroken, and honestly… empty. In this episode, I share what it feels like to be a creative person living in America right now when the news feels unbearable, when your emotions are so full they leave you feeling blank, and when you're wondering:What is even worth creating at a time like this?How are we supposed to go about daily life?This is a raw, unscripted reflection on creative paralysis, collective grief, human rights, and the cruelty happening around us, including the actions of ICE and the fear, harm, and devastation our communities are experiencing.I talk about:-Small ways to stay creative and human when you feel helpless-Creative burnout from current events and how to move through it -How to alchemize pain into purpose-The role of artists, makers, and storytellers during hard times-Why this moment is not a political issue, but rather, a human rights issueIf you've been feeling distracted, heavy, unable to focus, or wondering how to keep making things when your heart is breaking, this episode is for you. I love you. I'm with you.

Most people treat mental health like an emergency tool, not a daily strength practice. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with Cory Chadwick, founder of Lyceum, to unpack the difference between reactive coping and proactive growth. This conversation is for anyone who's functioning but not thriving, especially busy leaders and high performers who want more clarity, energy, and consistency. You'll learn how to close the gap between where you are now and your personal “10” by building repeatable mental habits, not chasing motivation. About the Guest: Cory Chadwick is the founder of Lyceum, a trainer-led “mental gym” designed to help leaders and high performers build proactive mental fitness. He focuses on practical tools, accountability, and consistent growth through weekly group training. Key Takeaways: Treat mental health like physical fitness: train consistently, not only in crisis Use the “1 to 10” check-in to spot the gap between current self and best self Drop the need for perfection: missing one day is normal, quitting is optional Focus on “do something, not nothing” to keep momentum alive Ask yourself: “What do I really want out of life?” to simplify decisions Build sustainable habits with structure, guidance, and community How to Connect With the Guest: LinkedIn (connect with Cory Chadwick) https://www.yourlyceum.com/  Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

From Wollongong to London, via Alice Springs, this is writer Nikki Gemmell on her deeply romantic life, and how she defied expectations to become a famous author.Nikki grew up the daughter of a coalminer father who thought writers were a burden on society, while her mum taught Nikki that only success was worthy of love.So Nikki went above and beyond to prove her beloved father wrong, and to get the attention of her mother through her achievements, publishing 20 books in the process, including the wildly successful The Bride Stripped Bare.Now the mother of four children, Nikki has also been determined to live her own life and raise her own children very differently, being generous with her love and pride for her sons and daughter.Content warning: Please take care when listening as this conversation mentions suicide.Help is always available.If you need to talk, 24/7 crisis support is available from Lifeline by calling 13 11 14.You can also text with them and chat online with counsellors hereThis episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris. Executive producer is Nicola Harrison.It explores parenthood, mothers, fathers, attachment, fawning, people pleasing, striving for achievement, accomplishment, writing, books, novelist, coal mining, family separation, divorce, childhood trauma, healing, generational differences, romance, love, mental health, Australian literature.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts. There you'll find hundreds of the best thought-provoking interviews with authors, writers, artists, politicians, psychologists, musicians, and celebrities.

In this solo episode, I acknowledge how oppression and the systems we live in inherently impact mental health and one's sense of safety (if not directly), from what's happening in the US to the experiences of those living under oppression. I hold space for all the emotions that come from witnessing harm caused by systems of power, including ICE and the US government, to those fighting for freedom in Iran, for those trying to simply survive in Gaza, and more.I get into what it can look like to experience OCD thoughts around morality, and the black-and-white thinking that can keep us stuck in our thoughts, rather than taking action and showing up with community.Throughout the episode, I identify moral OCD-related thoughts that show up in real time, and what it looks like to simply notice and name them without proving, engaging, or trying to analyze them. OCD thrives on extremes and our thoughts can convince us we're not doing "enough." I share how showing up, in incremental ways, can make a difference rather than feeling stuck in the thoughts and loneliness. I also share how my recent birthday and celebrating brought us similar feelings, including guilt, confusion, and all-or-nothing.While I share my personal process in this episode, this episode is hopefully a reminder that you are allowed to feel guilt, confusion, anxiety, joy, all the feelings without shame or judgment. We can continue to show up, lean into this work, take action AND check in with our nervous system and honor what our bodies need. *As always, relating to this episode does not necessarily mean you live with OCD. I'm simply sharing how OCD shows up in this experience for me.STAY CONNECTED:INSTA: @trustandthriveTIKOK: @trustandthriveEMAIL: trustandthrive@gmail.com

This Isn't Therapy… it's the episode about The Default Mode Network, responsible for helping us be bored, self reflect, and go into real rest. From there, Simon and Jake talk about what it might mean if you're feeling muted emotions or blunted emotional reactions all too often.

On this week of Raising Serotonin, I'm sharing what it's really been like stepping into something completely new, my practicum for my master's degree. I talk honestly about the nerves, self-doubt, and emotional waves that come with starting unfamiliar territory, and how quickly those moments can bring our deepest core beliefs about self-worth to the surface.I reflect on what it looks like to notice those beliefs, challenge them, and choose growth anyway, even when it feels uncomfortable. This episode is about honoring your feelings without letting them run the show, trusting yourself in the unknown, and allowing change to shape you rather than scare you. If you're standing at the edge of something new, this one's for you.Get your Raising Serotonin Merch here! FOLLOW RAISING SEROTONIN ON INSTAGRAM HERE Support the show

College admissions get stressful fast, and for many parents, it starts with the feeling that the rules keep changing and no one explains them clearly.Amy names that tension early in the episode, and Alexis White helps slow it down. Drawing from her work as a college expert and her experience as a parent, Alexis talks through the college process in a practical way. The focus stays on parenting through this stage with intention, prioritizing mental health, realistic expectations, and meaningful support for parents who want to guide their kids without letting stress take over family life.Rather than chasing prestige or checking every box, the conversation asks parents to pause and reassess. What actually fits your child right now? How do grades, activities, and testing reflect who they are, not who they are supposed to be? Alexis offers clear guidance on timing, essays, and decision points, with the reminder that consistency and perspective matter more than perfection.This episode centers on support for parents navigating a major transition. College admissions are treated as a developmental step, not a verdict. With more clarity and fewer assumptions, the college process starts to feel less intimidating and more workable.Episode Breakdown:00:00 College Admissions Stress and Mental Health for Parents01:27 Meet Alexis White, College Admissions Expert and Founder of A-List Tutoring07:15 How Parents Can Stay Sane During the College Admissions Process12:55 What Colleges Really Look For, Grades, Passion, and Context21:46 High School Roadmap for College Admissions, 9th Through 11th Grade29:01 College Essays Explained, Personal Statements, Supplemental Essays, and Parent Roles36:43 SAT and ACT Explained, Test Optional Policies and Score Strategy46:00 When to Hire a College Admissions Expert and Why 10th Grade Matters49:36 Should Teens Go to College, Life Skills, Independence, and Maturity55:51 Underrated Colleges to Consider, Marquette, Bowling Green, and Elon1:01:14 Scholarships and Athletic Aid, How Parents Can Find College MoneyConnect with Alexis White:Follow Alexis on TiktokFollow Alexis on InstagramVisit the Alexis College Expert website⁠⁠⁠⁠For More on this Episode: Read the full show notes ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

#205 - Some stories don't just move you—they recalibrate your sense of what's possible. Adriene Caldwell grew up in the crosshairs of untreated schizophrenia, constant relocation, and a home life that spun from denial to violence. After losing the grandmother who shielded her, she entered a foster system that should have offered stability and instead delivered degradation: separate dishes, floor seating, and rules designed to remind her she didn't belong. The stats she shares are brutal—one in five inmates are former foster youth, seven in ten foster girls have a child by 21, and fewer than three percent use free college benefits—but the real shock is how incentives often reward keeping kids “high need” rather than helping them heal.What changed her trajectory was a lifeline she claimed for herself: a coveted congressional exchange to Germany. There, a host family modeled warmth, boundaries, and trust. Adriene learned German the hard way—by speaking it every day—aced tough classes at a college-track school, and felt the shift that happens when someone insists you sit in the front seat for the view. Returning stateside just shy of 18, she found no plan waiting and wrote letters up the chain until one emerged. Along the way, a third-grade math teacher delivered hotel toiletries to a housing project, and a fierce English teacher stocked her classroom with computers and left one to Adriene before she died. Those acts—practical, personal, and precisely timed—became stepping stones to scholarships and a future she couldn't yet picture.We also explore why Adriene wrote Unbroken, Life Outside the Lines, and how revisiting old case files forced a reckoning with both the parts of survival that became manipulation and the parts that deserve pride. Her message to teens at the edge is simple and urgent: your life won't always look like this, and soon your choices will shape what comes next—numbing or healing, hiding or asking, repeating or rebuilding.If this conversation resonates, share it with someone who needs proof that change is possible. Subscribe for more human-centered stories, rate the show to help new listeners find us, and tell us: what moment shifted your path?To learn more about Adriene and her book check out www.unbronkencaldwell.com and check her out on Instagram @unbrokencaldwell.You can also find more information about the show at www.thehumanadventure.net and check out my Instagram @humanadventurepod. 

Three facts are scientifically undisputed: Serotonin is essential for fetal brain development. SSRIs disrupt the serotonin system. SSRIs freely cross the placenta. So why are pregnant women being told these drugs carry "little or no risk"?In this rare head-to-head debate, Dr. Adam Urato—maternal-fetal medicine specialist and FDA expert panelist—faces off against Dr. Robert Chen, a psychiatry resident willing to do what most of his colleagues won't: step into the arena and defend the establishment position.What unfolds is a striking conversation where both physicians actually agree on more than you'd expect—including that informed consent is failing pregnant women, that the chemical imbalance theory is dead, and that "untreated depression" is a misleading frame designed to sell drugs.

This episode is both practical and visionary for leaders considering hosting a local summit or partnering more intentionally around mental health. Quotes “Mental health is part of our health journey. The brain is a beautiful, complicated, and fragile organ—and sometimes it goes a bit funky.” — Jennifer Bowen “We wanted to embody mental wellness in the entire experience, not just talk about it from a stage.” — Jennifer Bowen “The in-between moments—the hallways, the meals, the conversations—were as rich as the sessions themselves.” — Jennifer Bowen “This wasn't about one voice leading the conversation. It became a mural of many voices coming together.” — Jennifer Bowen “The local summits are meant to be a choose-your-own-adventure—designed around the capacity and context of your community.” — Laura Howe Resources Host a Local Summit Connect with Hope Made Strong Website: HopeMadeStrong.org Socials: Facebook – Instagram – Twitter – YouTube

This episode is a radical reframe of what a good life actually is, and how we can all get there. If you feel stuck, it's gonna unstick you. If you're struggling with problems that feel insurmountable, this episode will offer solutions you haven't heard anywhere else.  I'm talking with Stanford professors Dave Evans and Bill Burnett. Their books have sold millions of copies around the world. They've helped us design our lives, design our work, and now they're back to teach us how to infuse our lives with meaning, purpose and flow.  We get into all of their expertise, from the workplace to relationships to how to get the most of your one human life in this episode. It's practical and deeply philosophical. It made me cry both recording it and then again looking back on the edit. 

Send us a textIf you're the one everyone turns to, you might be carrying more than you realize. We sit down with psychotherapist and mental wellness consultant Leah Marone to unpack the “serial fixer” habit—why it thrives in first responder culture and how it quietly fuels burnout, resentment, and frayed relationships. Leah works extensively with police, fire, EMS, and dispatch, and she brings sharp, compassionate insights you can use today without adding hours to your schedule.We break down the real difference between therapy and consulting, then rebuild the foundation of wellness with small, sustainable practices: bookending your mornings and nights, using micro resets during daily transitions, and reclaiming self-care as single-task presence instead of numbing or multitasking. Leah introduces a practical rule that changes conversations fast—support, don't solve—along with validation skills that help teammates, partners, and kids think more clearly and take ownership. You'll hear how the fixer impulse can become “compassion as control,” why quick advice often backfires, and how to replace that urge with grounded presence.Expect concrete tools and memorable metaphors. The internal “balloon” lets you notice pressure before it pops, and that shaken “soda bottle” reminds you to release slowly, not explode. We also cover sleep hygiene as the no‑nonsense cornerstone of recovery, data collection to challenge “dark cloud” thinking, and first responder-ready ways to downshift from high gear without losing your edge. If you want stronger boundaries, steadier energy, and deeper connection, this conversation will help you change your default settings.To reach Leah, here is the link to her work: https://linktr.ee/leahmaronelcswIf this resonates, tap follow, share it with a teammate who needs lighter armor, and leave a quick review so more first responders can find these tools.

But what if that was never the point? In this episode of Strange Planet, Richard Syrett sits down with author and filmmaker Adam Gorightly to dissect Saucers, Spooks and Kooks—a chilling exploration of UFOs as a tool of disinformation, psychological warfare, and belief management. GUEST: Adam Gorightly is a researcher, author, and filmmaker specializing in the hidden intersections of UFO culture, intelligence operations, and psychological warfare. He is the author of Saucers, Spooks and Kooks: UFO Disinformation in the Age of Aquarius and the director of the documentary of the same name. Gorightly's work examines how belief systems are engineered, manipulated, and weaponized—revealing how myth, media, and covert power quietly shape modern reality.

Let's unpack a truth most people don't want to admit: the thing you're avoiding is action. When you leave inaction untouched, it does not sit quietly. It grows. It drains you. And it quietly reshapes your life through mental drag, stress, and procrastination. Unaddressed conversations don't sit still. Ignored decisions don't pause. Delayed action doesn't disappear. It compounds. It leaks energy, creates anxiety, and slowly trains your nervous system to stay stuck. In this episode, Troy introduces the Bison Theory, a counterintuitive truth rooted in real behavior: while most animals run away from storms and stay trapped in them longer, bison run straight into the storm, shortening how long they suffer. This episode isn't about hype or grit for grit's sake. It's about why facing the thing you're avoiding is the fastest path to transformation, and how movement, not certainty, is what breaks the loop. If you've felt the weight of indecision, the drag of unfinished business, or the mental exhaustion of too many open loops, this conversation will feel uncomfortably familiar in the best way.This Episode Covers:Why avoidance is active, not neutral, and how it quietly compounds stressHow “direction determines duration” when it comes to pain and changeWhy facing the storm creates momentum even before clarity shows upHow anticipation of pain often hurts longer than the pain itselfThe real reason action restores energy faster than motivation ever willHow to stop negotiating with reality and start reclaiming agencyWhy transformation begins the moment you turn toward what you've been running fromBeyond The Episode Gems:Subscribe To My New Weekly LinkedIn Newsletter: Strategize.
