Most doctors treat the average patient. But you are not average, and this episode gives you the precision medicine blueprint to treat yourself like the individual you are, using multi-omic testing, biohacking technology, and longevity science to optimize every layer of your biology. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Anil Bajnath, a Board-Certified Family Physician, author of The Longevity Equation, and President and Founder of the American Board of Precision Medicine. He serves as Adjunct Professor at the George Washington University School of Medicine and CEO of the Institute for Human Optimization. Dr. Bajnath is certified through the Institute for Functional Medicine, board certified in anti-aging and regenerative medicine, and is one of the few clinicians actively applying genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and epigenetics together in a real clinical practice. Together, Dave and Dr. Bajnath break down why population-based medicine fails individuals, how functional medicine and precision science combine to unlock real human performance, and why your mitochondria sit at the foundation of every longevity strategy worth pursuing. They dig into how AI can help you decode your own inflammasome biology, why biohackers are using “sex drugs” to extend longevity, why vagal nerve stimulation directly suppresses the NLRP3 inflammasome, and which biomarkers like MMP9 and homocysteine mainstream medicine keeps ignoring. They also cover peptides, supplements, the dark side of metformin, microdosing for anti-aging, and why biohacking works best when it's personalized and precise. This is essential listening for anyone serious about longevity, smarter not harder health strategies, metabolism, sleep optimization, brain optimization, functional medicine, and taking full control of their biology. You'll Learn: Why precision medicine outperforms population-based health strategies for human performance How to layer genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics into one complete biological picture Which longevity biomarkers your doctor is likely ignoring, including MMP9 and homocysteine How vagal nerve stimulation suppresses the NLRP3 inflammasome and drives anti-aging benefits The real story on metformin, peptides, and which supplements actually move the needle How AI can help you understand your own biology and act on it faster Why biohacking precision beats random stacking every time Thank you to our sponsors! • Igniton | Head over to Igniton.com and use code DAVE for an exclusive 15% off your first order. • BEYOND Biohacking Conference 2026 | Register with code DAVE300 for $300 off https://beyondconference.com • Caldera + Lab | Go to https://calderalab.com/DAVE and use code DAVE at checkout for 20% off your first order. • Screenfit | Get your at-home eye training program for 40% off using code DAVE at https://www.screenfit.com/dave.

Most athletes are not undertrained — they are overworked in the wrong ways.Performance does not come from doing more. It comes from doing the right work with precision and intent.Episode HighlightsIn this episode, Adam Lane sits down with Coach Ryan Paul, founder of New Athlete Incorporated, to break down what it really takes to develop athletes who can perform at a high level without being run into the ground. Ryan explains his approach to intensity and specificity, why many athletes are competing year-round without true recovery, and how tools like isometrics, grip strength work, and performance data can build stronger, more resilient athletes without adding unnecessary volume.Episode OutlineThe problem with year-round competition and limited off-seasonsWhy many athletes are overworked but under-stimulated in the right areasThe role of intensity and specificity in athletic developmentMicro-dosing training to maintain performance during heavy competition schedulesUsing heavy, aggressive stimuli in short sets to drive adaptationIsometrics as a tool for strength, resilience, and neurological efficiencyManaging readiness and avoiding overtrainingThe importance of grip strength in overall athletic performanceApplying data and tracking tools to guide programming decisionsBuilding well-rounded, durable athletes without unnecessary volumeEpisode Chapters00:00 Intro01:23 Ryan's background & origins of New Athlete02:16 From truck bed Vertimax to multi-site facility02:51 Who New Athlete trains: middle school to NFL draft04:33 Year-round volleyball & “no off-season” reality07:19 Parents, clubs & the performance gap10:33 Microdosing training vs constant games17:02 Intensity over volume: real in-season gains21:38 Off-season training: speed, data & bar speed28:41 Isometrics for youth & overcoming ISOs35:50 Long ISOs, conditioning without gassers43:54 Eccentric braking, force, and injury risk56:28 Where to find Coach Ryan & closing remarksAction TakenSchedule and confirm part two podcast episode with the guestRun a pilot ISO-focused training program with a small athlete groupTrack performance metrics and adjust programming based on dataConclusionHigh-level performance is not built on volume alone.

Drop us a line or two . . .Queenie and TT record in the morning like the agile legends they are… despite a little tech lag. They recap a quiet Stink-O-Rama roller skating day, celebrate Chef Son's homemade feast, and spiral (comedically) into the brutal truth of aging, hormones, and the “we're shriveling into dust balls” era. They revisit Tanya's menopause/HRT wisdom, debate psychedelics and microdosing, and share what they're consuming. TT covers a dating poll suggesting cannabis use is more “green flag” than “red flag,” then the ladies play “Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda—Was it Cannabis or Caca?” Finally, the Fuck-It List targets the weird guilt around watching TV during the day—because retirement means you can watch Netflix at 2pm if you damn well please.Episode summary (long)This week, Closet Disco Queen goes full “morning people (temporarily)” with Queenie and TT battling a little lag, a little pixelation, and a lot of midlife honesty. Queenie shares a return to Stick-O-Rama (empty rink = bliss), a big family moment, and the shock of time flying. The conversation turns to the very real physical shift that seems to hit in the early 60s—skin changes, hormone deprivation, and the urgent mission to get “back on the horse” (radiant edition).They reflect on Tanya's candid menopause/sex/HRT conversation and unpack the idea of psychedelics—what microdosing actually means, why the stigma lingers even for cannabis-friendly folks, and whether “if not now, when?” applies here.TT's “Where is it legal?” segment brings a positive story: a dating poll where marijuana use reads more green flag than red flag (while cigarettes and riskier drugs are bigger turnoffs). Then it's game time: Mitch McConnell frolicking in hemp (real) vs. an HOA hemp-rope freakout (sadly, caca).The episode wraps with the Fuck-It List: ditching the unwritten rule that daytime TV is “bad” unless you're sick—because retirement means your stories are back on the menu.midlife cannabis podcastmenopause and cannabis conversationHRT and estrogen misinformationcannabis legalization “where is it legal”cannabis and dating poll green flagmicrodosing psychedelics midlife discussionfunny menopause podcast episode Welcome to the Closet Disco Queen Pot-Cast, a #1 ranked Women in Cannabis (Feedspot, Million Pods; 2025) comedy podcast with music and pop culture references that keeps you laughing and engaged.

In this rollicking podcast conversation, Tom Zaimes breaks down how corruption actually works—not as a series of scandals or bad actors, but as a normalized operating system sustained by incentives, media narratives, and managed dissent. We explore why exposure rarely leads to reform, how “anti-establishment” movements are absorbed and neutralized, and why institutions appear to fail while continuing to consolidate power. This episode cuts through moral framing to examine the mechanics of control, the illusion of accountability, and what it would really mean to side with Team Humanity inside a system that rewards corruption.

Il microdosing è nato come pratica “cool” da Silicon Valley: dosi minuscole di LSD o psilocibina prese a cadenza regolare, con la promessa di diventare più creativi, produttivi e felici, senza mai “andare in acido” davvero.Negli studi però la storia è molto meno spettacolare: le ricerche su basse dosi trovano effetti reali ma piccoli su umore, attenzione e benessere, e spesso quello che i microdosatori si aspettano – la super‑creatività, la rivoluzione cognitiva – non si vede nei dati. #microdosing #LSD #psilocibina #psichedelici #neuroscienze #placebo #biohacking #salutementale #depressione #ansia #ADHD #droghe #ricercascientifica #evidencebased #cosemoltoumane #Balázs #Szigeti Learn more about your ad choices.

121. Microdosing for Midlife: Stability & Nervous System Change (Week 4)Week 4 of Microdosing for Midlife explores how nervous system stability shapes identity, growth, and long-term change in midlife.Episode SummaryThis episode is part Week 4 of Microdosing for Midlife—a 12-part audio companion to the original Substack series.In this conversation, April expands on what it actually means to feel stable while undergoing change. Midlife often brings visible transitions—shifts in hormones, identity, relationships, ambition—but underneath those external markers is something quieter: the nervous system recalibrating itself. Rather than focusing on dramatic breakthroughs, this episode examines how safety, steadiness, and subtle internal shifts create sustainable growth.Instead of chasing intensity, April reflects on how microdosing can support capacity—capacity to tolerate discomfort, to remain present in uncertainty, and to integrate insight gradually. The real work is not in peak moments. It's in the ability to return to baseline without abandoning yourself.
In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Denmark-based coach and hybrid athlete Andreas Stobberup to talk about bridging serious strength training with high-level endurance performance. Andreas shares his journey from peaking around 250 lbs with a 405 bench and 600+ squat to dropping to 205 and completing a full Ironman in 9:52—while continuing to coach athletes across disciplines. We discuss the reality gap between amateur and elite performance, how influencer culture often strips context from training advice, and why fundamentals still win: training, nutrition, sleep, and measurable outputs. We break down common misunderstandings around Zone 2 training, why pros don't train the way social media says they do, and how strength athletes can intelligently add conditioning without compromising lifting. We also cover VO₂ max development, microdosing cardio, output-based tracking (times, power, lactate), and how to think about HRV and wearable data in context. If you're interested in hybrid training, improving conditioning without sacrificing muscle, or understanding how to measure what actually matters, this one is packed with practical insight.

Okay babes… this is a very special Free The Moms episode.This one is actually a replay-style webinar training that I hosted, and I decided to bring it to the podcast because this conversation needs to happen out loud. We are talking all things peptides. Yes, GLP-1s. And also NAD+, glutathione, B12, BPC-157 and more. But the main focus of this training is GLP-1s—why so many of my clients are taking them, why some are microdosing, why some are on a full weight-loss dose… and why I personally am on a microdose.I'll be honest with you. I was nervous to release this. There is still so much stigma around GLP-1s. And I don't love that. So we're de-stigmatizing it. We're having the conversation. Because my job is to bring you information, empowerment, and options—without shame.Inside this episode, I walk you through:- What peptides actually are (and why they're not some scary foreign thing)- The difference between microdosing a GLP-1 and using a full weight-loss dose- Why I chose to microdose—and how I think about it in the context of longevity and metabolic health- Semaglutide vs tirzepatide (single agonist vs dual agonist) and what that actually means- What my clients are experiencing on these medications- Side effects like nausea and how they're managing it- Why medical oversight matters and how to think about doing this responsiblyWe also talk about other supportive peptides like NAD+ and glutathione, and why this conversation is bigger than “just weight loss.” For many of my clients, this is about metabolic healing, inflammation, energy, and feeling like themselves again.If you're curious, skeptical, interested, or just want to understand what the heck everyone is talking about, this episode is for you. You get to decide what's right for your body. Always.If you want to explore further, you can check out the peptides portal here:https://lmd.com/LauraConleyAnd if you attended the webinar live (or signed up), you'll receive the replay, consult link, booking link, and all resources via email.I love you guys.

Keegan Downer (Founder of mindfulMEDS) shares how he went from alcohol addiction and a near-suicidal breaking point, to recovery and to building one of Canada's most recognized microdosing education brands, and why psilocybin doesn't have to be "woo." We also get super practical: What microdosing actually feels like day-to-day, why it can hit women differently (especially moms), how psilocybin compares to SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) when it comes to emotional processing, and why "wine o'clock" culture is quietly keeping so many women stuck in a stress-and-numb cycle.

120. Microdosing for Midlife: Hormones, Perception, and Libido (Week 3)Exploring how menopause, perception shifts, and nervous system regulation intersect with midlife libido.Episode SummaryThis episode continues Week 3 of Microdosing for Midlife, April Pride's 12-part audio companion to her Substack series exploring microdosing through the lens of midlife transition.In this conversation, April examines one of the most quietly asked questions among women in perimenopause and menopause: can microdosing influence hormones or libido? Rather than positioning psilocybin as a hormonal intervention, she reframes the inquiry around perception, serotonin signaling, emotional regulation, and nervous system safety.The episode explores how estrogen fluctuations affect mood stability, why cortisol and stress patterns shape desire, and how subtle perceptual shifts—rather than dramatic sensations—may influence connection and intimacy. Through personal reflection and grounded science, April centers integration over hype.
It's “love month”… and I've got to ask you something.Is giving someone sugary treats really love? Or is it slowly contributing to the very health crisis we say we care about?Friend, we are living in a time where nearly half of adults are struggling with obesity. And now?

In this insightful conversation, endocrinologist Dr Rocio Salas-Whalen joins Bahar to demystify the science and emotional journey behind GLP-1 medications. They explore how these drugs—originally developed for diabetes—have become a cornerstone of modern metabolic and hormonal health. From microdosing pitfalls to the importance of muscle preservation, protein intake, and hydration, Dr Salas-Whalen explains why these medications can be transformative when used responsibly under medical supervision. The discussion also touches on the psychological side of weight loss, the future of obesity treatment, and how GLP-1 might even influence brain health and addiction recovery. Dr Salas-Whalen’s new book Weightless offers practical guidance for women navigating midlife metabolism with compassion and science. Key Takeaways GLP-1 medications were discovered in 2005 and have redefined metabolic health. Chronic inflammation is a central issue in obesity and ageing. Microdosing doesn’t work—therapeutic dosing under expert care is essential. Muscle mass is the engine of metabolism and longevity. 100–110 grams of protein per day supports muscle, bone, and skin health. Hydration is often neglected but vital. GLP-1 may support addiction recovery and emotional stability. Sustainable change requires both science and emotional awareness.

In this episode of Marni On The Move, I'm joined by Carl Daikeler, co-founder and CEO of BODi (formerly Beachbody) and one of the original pioneers of at-home fitness. More than 25 years ago, Carl saw an opportunity to bring structured, results-driven fitness into people's homes—long before streaming platforms, wearables, or social media made it mainstream. That vision led to the creation of iconic programs like P90X and helped define an entirely new model for how people train outside the gym. In our conversation, Carl shares how direct-response marketing shaped the way fitness programs were built, distributed, and scaled; how the industry evolved from VHS to digital platforms; and how consumer priorities have shifted from aesthetics to healthspan, longevity, and sustainability. We also discuss the evolution of fitness programming through systems like Power 90, the introduction of BODi, and the launch of P90X Generation Next. Carl explains why accessibility, consistency, and community are now central to long-term success—and why strength and core training remain foundational for everyone, regardless of age or fitness level. This episode offers a thoughtful look at where modern fitness began, how it has evolved, and where it's headed next.

The REST Revolution thesis is that rest is not an activity, it's an approach to life that's rooted in worthiness. So rest isn't about doing less, it's about believing you're worthy regardless of what you accomplish.Coach and author Heather Boersma shares her journey from burnt out motivational speaker to discovering that rest is a foundational agreement with your own worthiness. After experiencing panic attacks that forced her to step back from everything, Heather rebuilt her life around the understanding that her value isn't tied to her to-do list. This conversation dives into the REST framework (mindset, emotions, nervous system), why motherhood often makes the hustle unsustainable, and the simple breathing technique that can regulate your nervous system in 90 seconds.In this episode, we cover:(00:00) Intro(06:09) From a random stage in Australia to touring as a motivational speaker(13:35) The first panic attack on an airplane—what it felt like and what it revealed(18:07) Genetic testing, grief, and the anxiety spiral that followed(21:54) Why motherhood makes the hustle stop working(31:48) Why we resist feeling our emotions and how it steals our rest(37:03) Building the belief "I'm worthy" one thought at a time for 63 days(39:41) The basketball analogy: slowing down to grow(44:40) Microdosing rest(48:39) The three pillars of rest and creating schedules that align with your values(52:46) What Heather is still figuring out: integrating all parts of herselfCheck out episode 103, a similar episode, with Joanna Brewster → Spotify, Apple or YouTubeKEY TAKEAWAYRest isn't an activity you add to your calendar—it's the foundational belief that you're worthy exactly as you are, without needing to prove, perform, or produce anything. When you live FROM worthiness instead of FOR worthiness, you can still have a full life and big goals, but without the frantic energy that leads to burnout. The shift happens one thought at a time: spend 63 days practicing "I'm worthy" (or "It's possible I'm worthy"), and your brain will build a new neural pathway that becomes your default setting. This is the rest that actually restores.About Heather BoersmaHeather Boersma is a speaker, author, and certified life and business coach who helps ambitious women create sustainable success without burnout. Drawing on over 20 years of speaking experience and her neuroscience-based coaching approach, Heather supports female entrepreneurs in finding work-life flow and building emotionally healthy businesses.She is currently completing her Master of Counselling Psychology, further integrating evidence-based strategies with her coaching practice. Heather's passion is helping women reclaim rest, regulate their nervous systems, and redefine success on their own terms. The Rest Revolution is her third book, following two earlier titles that have inspired readers across Canada, the US, and beyond. She lives in Vancouver, Canada, with her husband and three children.Connect with Heather BoersmaWebsite | https://www.heatherboersma.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/heatherboersma YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@heatherboersma-lifecoachfo2930 Book | The REST Revolution – https://amzn.to/4refQr8 About Andrea Barr, host of All Figured Out:Andrea is a certified career and life coach for parents.

119. Microdosing for Midlife: Brain Science of Change (Week 2)Week 2 of Microdosing for Midlife explores estrogen, menopause, hormone therapy, and cognitive health—plus how psilocybin supports neuroplasticity.Episode SummaryThis episode marks Week 2 of Microdosing for Midlife, a 12-week audio series exploring how psilocybin microdosing for women intersects with hormonal change, emotional regulation, and cognitive resilience during midlife.In this installment, April Pride expands on a central question that surfaced after Week 1: whether being “spared” classic menopausal symptoms—or choosing not to take hormone replacement therapy—puts women at greater risk for cognitive decline. Drawing from current research, April reframes the fear-driven narrative around menopause, estrogen, and dementia, offering a more nuanced and reassuring understanding of what actually shapes long-term brain health.The episode also explores estrogen's role as a neuroprotectant, how the midlife brain becomes more vulnerable to stress-based patterning, and why psychedelics like psilocybin may support neuroplasticity by softening rigid survival scripts. Through personal reflection and lived experience, April illustrates how subtle shifts in perception—not emotional erasure—can change one's relationship to anxiety, grief, and uncertainty.This episode functions as an audio companion to the written Week 2 essay, adding scientific context, integration insights, and real-life application without replacing the original post.
On today's episode, we welcome Kayse Gehret, Founder and Microdosing Guide behind Microdosing for Healing — a global education platform bringing clarity, intention, and responsibility to the rapidly growing conversation around microdosing.With nearly 30 years of experience in the healing arts, Kayse has supported more than 1,400 individuals across 30+ countries. Her work stands apart for its grounded, nervous-system–informed approach, emphasizing preparation, integration, and discernment over hype or quick fixes. Rather than treating microdosing as a trend, Kayse frames it as a deeply personal practice rooted in safety, self-awareness, and lived experience.In this episode, Kayse breaks down what microdosing actually is (and what it isn't), who it may or may not be right for, and what responsible guidance looks like in a space often clouded by misinformation. We explore how to begin thoughtfully, what to look for in a guide or program, what to realistically expect, and why integration matters just as much as the protocol itself. This is an honest, educational conversation for anyone curious, cautious, or simply looking for better information.

118. Microdosing for Midlife: Intention Setting, Integration, and Finding Your Dose (Week 1)Week 1 of Microdosing for Midlife explores intention setting, finding the right microdose, and integrating psilocybin gently during midlife transitions.Episode SummaryThis episode marks Week 1 of Microdosing for Midlife, a 12-week audio series exploring how psilocybin microdosing for women can support emotional awareness, intention, and integration during midlife transitions.In this opening installment, April Pride reads and expands on the first essay in the series, focused on intention setting and finding the right dose, while grounding the conversation in lived experience. Drawing from her own midlife hormonal transition, grief, and identity shifts, April frames microdosing as an integration practice that unfolds during daily life, rather than something that happens after a peak experience.The episode introduces why midlife—particularly during perimenopause and emotional regulation shifts—can be a uniquely potent time for this work. Listeners are invited to consider intention not as an outcome-driven goal, but as a present-moment orientation that supports nervous system regulation in midlife and long-term change.This episode serves as an audio companion to a Substack essay, offering context, reflection, and integration insights that stand on their own without replacing the original written post.
For this episode of Brave New World, Evgeny is joined by psychologist, author, and researcher Dr Jim Fadiman, a central figure in the modern understanding of psychedelics, who also goes by the “father of microdosing”.Drawing on decades of research and thousands of user reports, the conversation traces the history of psychedelics - from early scientific study in the 1950s and 60s, through prohibition, to today's renewed interest in clinical and psychiatric settings. Jim discusses why most formal research has focused on high doses, how observational reports have shaped microdosing research, where evidence is strongest and still emerging.Evgeny and Jim look ahead to the future of psychedelics in medicine, the balance between scientific caution and public interest, and what a first step might look like for someone curious but sceptical.This episode was produced by Message Heard and The Standard.Producer: Florence de SchlichtingProduction Coordinator: James CoxProduction Manager: Kirsty McLeanVideo Editor: Nani WenaniThe Standard team: Joe Bromley Will Rogers-Coltman Hosted on Acast.

Weight loss isn't just about willpower—and in this episode, Dr. Anthony Youn gets real about why with obesity medicine specialist Dr. Spencer Nadolsky, founder of Vineyard Health. Together, they unpack the messy, misunderstood reality of weight gain, from genetics and environment to why the traditional healthcare system often fails people trying to lose weight. Dr. Nadolsky breaks down how GLP-1 medications like Wegovy actually work, who they help most, and why they're not the “easy way out” they're often made out to be. They also tackle the big questions people are afraid to ask:Will these medications cause muscle loss?Do you have to stay on them forever?What happens if you stop? Most importantly, Dr. Nadolsky explains why sustainable weight loss requires more than a prescription—combining medication with nutrition, strength training, lifestyle changes, and real coaching support. If you're confused by the headlines, skeptical of quick fixes, or frustrated by years of conflicting advice, this episode cuts through the noise with clarity, compassion, and practical insight into where obesity treatment is headed next.

Gabe Charalambides is the founder of Odyssey, the world's leading provider of psilocybin-assisted therapy, and a Stanford-trained aerospace engineer whose personal experience with anxiety helped shape a mission: making psychedelic healing safer, more responsible, and more accessible to everyday people. After years working alongside leading psychedelic organizations, Gabe launched Odyssey in 2023 and helped open the first legal psilocybin retreat in the U.S., rooted in screening, preparation, and evidence-based support.In this conversation, we explore what psilocybin therapy can look like when done responsibly—why education, intention-setting, and integration matter as much as the ceremony itself. Gabe explains how psilocybin may reduce mental rigidity, increase psychological flexibility, and help people move through trauma, rumination, and fear—especially the existential distress that can come with a cancer diagnosis. We also break down what a guided experience typically involves (screening, preparation sessions, a full-day facilitated journey, and post-session integration), what outcomes Odyssey is tracking through an IRB-approved study, and why many participants describe their experience as one of the most meaningful of their lives.If you've been curious about psychedelics but unsure what “safe” really means—or you're navigating chronic illness, anxiety, or trauma and looking for new tools—this episode offers a grounded, practical look at what's real, what's promising, and what to consider before taking the next step.

In today's episode, Beth Feraco joins us again for an honest, unfiltered conversation about rapid weight loss, hair loss, and the very real consequences we're seeing from extreme calorie deficits, GLP-1 misuse, and the explosion of unregulated microdosing. What started as a hairstylist's concern turned into a much bigger discussion about under-fueling, nutrient deficiencies, muscle and bone loss, and the cultural pressure to be thin at all costs.We break down what peptides actually are, the critical difference between FDA-approved, responsibly prescribed GLP-1 medications and the research chemicals being sold online, and why “boring basics” like eating enough, lifting weights, sleeping, and managing stress still matter - no matter what medication you're on.This is a grounded, science-forward conversation from coaches who work with real people and care deeply about long-term health, not shortcuts.“You shouldn't receive a pharmaceutical in the mail, not know how to inject it, not know the dosage, and be DM'ing a random influencer for instructions.”- Beth Feraco“Losing hair is not a flex. That's not something that should be happening, and you need to do something about it as soon as it starts.”- Beth FeracoThis week on Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck:Rapid weight loss from steep calorie deficits often shows up first as hair lossHair loss can be a warning sign of muscle loss, bone loss, and nutrient deficienciesGLP-1 medications can be life-saving when responsibly prescribed and monitoredMicrodosed peptides sold online are unregulated research chemicals, not medicationsInfluencer and MLM peptide marketing is driven by profit, not health or sciencePostpartum and breastfeeding women are often significantly under-fueledHabits, behaviors, and coping skills still matter - even with medicationLong-term health comes from consistency with the boring basics, not shortcutsConnect with Us:Iris Deadlifts on InstagramAmy Rudolph on InstagramWork with us at Beth Feraco FitnessThanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck, where we challenge the common understanding of what it means and what it takes to be fit and healthy!

In this episode of the Spiritual Journey Podcast, Nimesh Radia welcomes Kayse Gehret, founder of Microdosing for Healing, for a grounded and heart-led conversation about earth medicines, intention, and spiritual evolution.Together, they explore the transformative yet gentle role of microdosing, why so many are being invited to move from head to heart, and how psilocybin and earth medicines can support healing across the physical, emotional, ancestral, and spiritual bodies. Kayse shares her personal journey, her deepened connection to spirit guides, and how microdosing has supported intuition, creativity, and embodied presence.This conversation also explores ancestral healing, grief release, collective evolution, and why healing can move faster in the current energetic climate when we allow ourselves to feel, trust, and stay connected to the body and the earth.Key Themes
There's a lot of fear, uncertainty, and heaviness in the world right now, and pretending otherwise doesn't help. On this episode, I talk about the idea of micro-dosing hope, a phrase I first heard from Brené Brown. I explore why small, intentional doses of hope matter, especially in challenging times, why it can be hard to access hope when fear is loud, and how we can practice staying grounded, engaged, and human without burning out or checking out.

If you're a midlife woman who feels like you're doing everything right — lifting weights, eating well, walking, managing stress — and your body still isn't responding, this episode is for you.In this powerful, myth-busting conversation, I'm joined by Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, a triple board-certified endocrinologist, obesity medicine specialist, author, and early adopter of GLP-1 therapies in the U.S. Dr. Salas-Whalen helps us understand why weight gain in midlife is not a willpower problem — it's a biology problem.We break down:Why midlife metabolism changes so dramatically during perimenopause and menopauseHow GLP-1 medications actually work (in plain English)Why muscle is the true organ of longevity — and how to protect it while using GLP-1sThe truth about side effects like hair loss, nausea, and “Ozempic face”Microdosing vs. full dosing, long-term use, and what's coming next in obesity medicineWhy shame-based weight loss advice is outdated — and harmfulWe also talk about Dr. Salas-Whalen's new book, Weightless, a science-backed, compassionate guide to GLP-1 medications and metabolic health that validates what so many women have experienced for decades.

Send us a textThis week we are thrilled to have Kayse Gehret on the show! Kayse lost her father to suicide when she was just 7 years old, and the grief and ptsd consumed her. She developed headaches which would over regularly, and these eventually turned into 'grand mal seizure disorder', which traditional doctors could not help with. Amazingly, Kayse was able to heal her own seizure disorder through microdosing. Annd now, through microdosing, she's spent 30 years helping people reconnect with their inner guidance, regulate their nervous system, and walk a more grounded spiritual path.Kayse founder of Microdosing for Healing and the Professional Microdosing Facilitator Program.Thanks for a great chat Kayse!https://www.kaysegehret.com/Support the show
What if the key to becoming more confident, resilient, and self-respecting isn't a big transformation... but a daily dose of hard? In this episode, Elizabeth shares the powerful concept of microdosing hard — how to apply small, intentional challenges in your day to strengthen your mindset, discipline, and self-trust. From parenting to personal development, you'll learn how embracing discomfort can completely shift your trajectory. Plus, hear insights from real DEFENSE clients who've used these tools to get unstuck and start showing up like never before. Whether it's a cold shower, a tough conversation, or sitting in silence instead of numbing — microdosing hard might be the exact shift you didn't know you needed.
Psilocybin is neurologically proven to unwire years of bad habits, enhancing focus, emotional control, and mental clarity. Society has intentionally hidden the truth about how this powerful compound can optimize your mind and body, but that changes now. In episode 847 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with Adam Schell, a former cannabis industry insider who now dedicates his life to psilocybin. Adam shares his incredible story, from a life altering psychedelic experience to losing millions and rebuilding. He explains the real science behind how microdosing psilocybin improves brain function, helps manage trauma, and promotes spiritual growth. They discuss the difference between a microdose and a hero dose, who is a good candidate for each, and why these substances are far safer and more beneficial than alcohol. This conversation reveals how you can use this tool to improve your health and become a more effective human being.If you are ready to apply this same level of optimization to your physique, join Robert's FREE Bodybuilding Masterclass to learn the proven system for building muscle and achieving your fitness goals. https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registration-2Code "SAVAGE" to save 15% off Adam's Site BrainSupremeGet Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQChapters:0:00 - Microdosing vs. Hero Dose: What's The Difference? 1:10 - The Philosophy of Building an Authentic Business 3:35 - How My First Psychedelic Trip Changed My Life Forever 6:00 - An Unforgettable Encounter With a Traumatized Veteran 8:29 - Why I Left The Cannabis Industry For Psychedelics 10:34 - The "Glorious Mutation" That Created Our Unique Strain 11:10 - A Beginner's Guide to Psilocybin Doses 13:20 - The Realistic Expectations for Microdosing 16:02 - Who Should Consider a "Heroic Dose" of Psychedelics? 18:04 - The Science of What Psilocybin Actually Does to Your Brain 19:54 - "Vertical" vs. "Horizontal" Psychedelics (Mushrooms vs. LSD/DMT) 22:12 - How a Hero Dose "Turns On The Lights" in Your Mind 24:39 - How Psychedelics Define My View of God & Religion 27:01 - Unlocking The "Ethereal Mycelium Network" 28:33 - Does Psychedelic Use Align with Organized Religion? 30:39 - Why I Can No Longer Support My "Home Team" 33:44 - I Lost $6.5 Million and Almost Got Myself Killed 36:10 - My Stance on Cannabis After Leaving The Industry 38:20 - My Book Deal Imploded, The Housing Crisis & Michael Jackson 41:45 - The Critical Difference Between Weed and Mushrooms 44:12 - The Downsides of Weed vs. Psilocybin 47:32 - Is It Possible to Get "Stuck" in a Bad Trip? 50:16 - Is Using Psychedelics for Growth "Cheating"? 53:04 - The Ancient & Mystical History of Psychedelics 55:25 - Why There Is a Stigma Against Psychedelics 58:05 - A Breakdown of Our Life-Optimizing Formulas 1:01:21 - How to Find Your Perfect Microdosing Protocol 1:05:33 - Does The Effect of Microdosing Wear Off? 1:08:32 - What Makes Our Brand Different From The Rest? 1:10:33 - Our Unrivaled Approach to Customer Service 1:14:24 - Where to Find More Information & A Discount Code
