In this episode, Molly explores why holiday creativity is far more than a nostalgic pastime. New research highlighted in The Washington Post shows that engaging in creative activities, even at a beginner level, is associated with younger looking brains and stronger cognitive health.Molly explains how creative acts like crafting, drawing, baking and building stimulate multiple brain networks, reduce stress hormones, and support emotional regulation.She connects these findings to childhood holiday memories while discussing why those early creative experiences were neurologically important. Molly also shares how creativity can support habit change by providing a healthy reward pathway, reducing urges, and strengthening identity. The episode ends with simple, low pressure ideas for tapping into creativity during the holiday season.What You'll LearnWhy creativity often feels counterintuitive but is deeply supported by neuroscienceHow creative activities activate the motor cortex, prefrontal cortex, reward system and the default mode networkThe connection between creativity, reduced cortisol, and emotional regulationWhy childhood crafting strengthened attention, fine motor skills and dopamine pathwaysHow creativity supports behavior change and identity transformationWhy the holiday season is a perfect time to reconnect with play and creative explorationSimple, nostalgic creative ideas that help the brain settle and feel groundedKey Ideas from the EpisodeYou do not need talent to benefit from creativity; beginners gain the same cognitive advantagesThe brain responds to the creative process, not the quality of the final productHoliday crafts from childhood created sensory, emotional and learning experiences that supported brain developmentCreativity provides a self-generated way to shift emotional states and manage urgesCreative acts reengage curiosity, novelty and presence, which help the holidays feel richer and less overwhelmingSmall creative behaviors can be a meaningful substitute for less helpful coping habitsPractical Creative Ideas MentionedMake a paper snowflakeTry a salt dough ornamentDecorate a gingerbread house kitMake a single handmade holiday cardPaint pinecones with simple suppliesCreate a photo collage from the yearDo a puzzle or coloring pageTreat cooking as a creative actTry a new recipe or texture-based food projectRelated Think Thursday EpisodesThe Paradox of FreedomNovelty for Habit ChangeDefensive PessimismThe Neuroscience of Mental RestSilence Is GoldenBrain Time: Why the Mind Does Not Experience Minutes the Way the Clock Does ★ Support this podcast ★

Send us a textEver wondered why our culture swings so hard between cocktails, cannabis, and “California sober” trends? This episode of Girls Gone Gritty unpacks the real conversations people are having, but rarely out loud, about alcohol, THC, CBD, responsibility, and how much of it is tied to stress, identity, and shifting generational norms.Jen and Farley open up about post-holiday overwhelm, family emotional hangovers, and how alcohol intensifies everything, from anxiety to exhaustion. From there, they break down why drinking culture feels different today, why Gen Z is stepping away from booze, and how cannabis products have exploded into the mainstream.

If your brain is telling you, “It's the holidays, I'll start in January,” this episode is here to challenge that script. Molly dives into why the belief that we need a perfect time to change our drinking is one of the most misleading and damaging patterns we fall into. In this episode, you'll discover why December is actually the ideal time to begin changing your relationship with alcohol—and how doing so can help you build real-life skills that stick.Drawing from neuroscience, behavior science, and lived experience, Molly shows you how to bypass the perfectionism trap and gain momentum before the new year even begins.What You'll LearnWhy “I'll start after the holidays” is a psychological trapThe science of temporal discounting and how it sabotages habit changeHow to work with your brain's neuroplasticity to make change easierWhy starting now creates more resilient, long-term resultsPractical tools to begin moderating your drinking todayFeatured ConceptsHabit change during high-stress seasonsReal-life application of the Behavior Map-Results CycleBuilding skills in real time vs. waiting for “perfect” conditionsEmbracing discomfort as part of sustainable behavior changeQuote to Remember“If you wait for life to calm down to make a change, you'll be waiting forever. Change happens when you decide it does—even in December.” – Molly WattsLow risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

"We eat from a thousand different hungers—and most of them aren't about food." — Jane McGuinness In this episode of Uncorking a Story, I sit down with Jane McGuinness—registered clinical counselor, mother of three, and author of the memoir Always Hungry: How I Lost the Weight and Found Myself. Jane opens up about her journey from emotional eating and divorce to rediscovering herself through writing, hiking, and radical acceptance. We talk about the psychology behind food cravings, the privilege of thinness, and why healing is about more than just losing weight. If you've ever wondered what it takes to transform your life from the inside out, this conversation is for you. Key Takeaways: Emotional eating is rarely about hunger—it's often tied to stress, anxiety, and unresolved trauma. Healing requires owning your story; writing memoir can be a powerful tool for self-discovery. Thin privilege is real—Jane shares candid insights on how society treats people differently based on body size. Sustainable weight loss is about consistency, not quick fixes—think small habits over time. Life transitions can spark growth—Jane's divorce and career change led her to embrace freedom and creativity. Travel and movement are transformative—Jane's Camino de Santiago pilgrimage changed her perspective on life. Moderation beats restriction—finding balance with food and exercise is key to long-term health.

They ask whether the U.S. is entering a new era of economic fragility, what signals truly matter beneath the noise, and how global outliers like Chile reveal the stakes of navigating a fractured, multipolar world.--Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction (01:46) - Discussion on San Francisco Fed Paper(05:14) - Historical Context of Tariffs(14:11) - Mechanics and Impact of Tariffs(18:26) - Political and Economic Realities(26:22) - Market Reactions and Volatility(30:03) - Election Aftermath and Voter Priorities(30:59) - Moderation and Economic Focus in Politics(31:58) - Scott Bessent and the Trump Administration(36:43) - US Institutions and Economic Policies(40:37) - Chile's Political Landscape and Economic Potential(48:29) - Global Energy Dynamics and Future Outlook(01:01:08) - Conclusion and Final Thoughts--Referenced in the Show:--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

My electrifying interview with Elaine Castillo, author of Moderation, which the New Yorker called "one of the best books of the year." We discussed (1) the psychological hellscape of the content moderator, one of the worst jobs on earth; (2) the redemptive power of VR therapeutics, and (3) how the most interesting kinds of characters are often those who are certain they are right, but are absolutely wrong.

In dieser Folge des Podcasts „Kopfsalat“ von Freunde fürs Leben e.V. spricht Moderator Sven Haeusler erneut mit der HateAid-Mitgründerin Anna-Lena von Hodenberg, diesmal über die systematischen Hintergründe digitaler Gewalt. Die Medienexpertin erklärt, wie Algorithmen, Desinformation und die Logiken sozialer Plattformen Hass verstärken, warum rechtsextreme Akteure digitale Angriffe strategisch nutzen und wie KI-gestützte Deepfakes unsere Wahrnehmung zusätzlich verunsichern. Digitale Gewalt ist für HateAid kein Zufall, sondern Teil eines ökonomischen und politischen Systems, das von diesen Entwicklungen profitiert. Gleichzeitig macht Anna-Lena von Hodenberg deutlich, warum sie trotz dieser Entwicklungen zuversichtlich bleibt und wie wir digitale Räume besser geschützt gestalten können. Kurzbeschreibung: Die Organisation HateAid unterstützt Betroffene mit Beratung, Beweissicherung und Prozesskostenhilfe und setzt sich dafür ein, dass Plattformen nicht länger Hass und Desinformation verstärken. Anna-Lena von Hodenberg betont, wie wichtig es ist, Vorfälle ernst zu nehmen, nicht allein zu bleiben und illegale Inhalte zu melden. Auch Außenstehende können helfen, indem sie Betroffenen öffentlich den Rücken stärken. Die sechste Staffel wird gefördert durch die Deutsche DepressionsLiga e.V. und die DAK Gesundheit.

In this Think Thursday episode of the Alcohol Minimalist podcast, Molly explores how visual triggers—those subtle, often overlooked cues in your environment—powerfully influence your behavior. Whether it's a bottle on the counter, a glowing screen, or a browser tab, your brain is constantly scanning for shortcuts and responding to what it sees.Drawing on neuroscience and habit psychology, Molly explains why visual input is processed faster than any other sense and how it becomes tightly linked with repetitive behaviors. More importantly, she offers practical strategies to reduce unwanted visual cues and introduce new ones that support the behaviors you want to reinforce.This episode is for anyone curious about how to work with their brain—not against it—to build healthier, more intentional habits.What You'll Learn:Why your brain processes visual information in just 13 millisecondsHow visual cues trigger automatic behaviors—even before you're aware of themWhat “cue reactivity” is and how it affects desireHow dopamine gets released in anticipation of a reward, not afterReal-world examples of visual triggers you might not be noticingTwo powerful strategies for managing your visual environment intentionallyHow visual design can help you create new habits with less frictionPractical Strategies from the Episode:Remove Visual Triggers You Don't WantClear counters, put items in drawers, reduce sensory reminders of unwanted habits“Out of sight, out of mind” is more than a phrase—it's a cognitive toolAdd Visual Cues for Behaviors You Want to ReinforcePlace journals, shoes, or water bottles in visible spots tied to your goalsUse sticky notes or phone screensavers with thought prompts or affirmationsReady to Take the Next Step?Explore Molly's Drink Less Success 30-day self-starter program—grounded in neuroscience and designed to help you rewire your habits through simple, daily actions.

Episode Summary:In this timely revisited episode of the Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, Molly dives deep into the topic of binge drinking—what it is, how it affects your brain, and most importantly, how to avoid it. In the spirit of No Binge November, Molly reflects on the broader implications of binge behavior across all areas of life, not just alcohol. She challenges long-held assumptions, shares science-backed insights, and offers both mindset shifts and practical tools to help you reduce or eliminate binge episodes.Whether you've ever thought, “I'm not a binge drinker,” or you've struggled with black-and-white thinking like, “Once I start, I can't stop,” this episode provides clarity, context, and encouragement to build a more peaceful, mindful relationship with alcohol.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why binge drinking might look different than you thinkThe scientific definition of binge drinking from the NIHHow higher ABV drinks can quietly turn moderate drinking into binge drinkingThe impact of binge drinking on your brain and behaviorMindset patterns that contribute to binge episodesTools and strategies to help you stay mindful and break the cycleKey Takeaways:Binge drinking isn't just about getting sloppy drunk—it can be more subtle, and many daily drinkers may unknowingly meet the criteria.A typical IPA may pack more alcohol than you realize, impacting your overall intake more than expected.Mindset plays a powerful role—believing "I just can't stop" can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.The goal of being an alcohol minimalist inherently means avoiding binge episodes and embracing calm, controlled drinking habits.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

In this week's episode, Kacy and Tyler talk about staying on tracking during the holidays. 

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) improves health without weight loss. Research shows that short high-intensity workouts boost cardiovascular health, and reduce body fat HIIT also increased HDL cholesterol levels, lowered blood pressure, and improved peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak) in overweight teens Prediabetics also benefit from HIIT. Analysis shows it outperformed continuous aerobic training by improving insulin sensitivity, glucose processing, and creating more energy-producing mitochondria Moderation is key for safety. An expert recommends limiting high-intensity exercise to 75 minutes weekly and strength training to 40 to 60 minutes weekly to avoid diminishing returns and health risks Effective sessions include a three-minute warmup, six minutes of high-intensity cardio, and combining cardio with strength training twice weekly

Zohran Mamdani has won the 2025 New York City mayoral race, with a higher turnout of voters than New York has seen in decades. This despite the fact that New York's senators — Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand — did not back Mamdani, and House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries waited until the day before early voting began to endorse the Democratic nominee.Mamdani's divided party support reflects an intensifying argument over whether Democratic candidates must move closer to the political center  - or further away - in order to win. Brooke speaks with Elliott Morris, a journalist, statistician, and author of the data-driven news website Strength in Numbers, about what the numbers say around moderation and why it might not be the silver bullet Democratic strategists seemed to crave.Further reading:Moderation is not a silver bullet, by Elliott MorrisThe Strategist's Fallacy in American politics, by Elliott Morris  On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

According to reports, “unaffiliated” voter turnout is already up—and most polling seems to indicate those voters will prefer Jack Ciattarelli over Mikie Sherrill. 3:40pm- Can Rich go a full segment without promoting his upcoming Fox News appearances? Spoiler: The answer is NO! He'll be on next Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday (in case you were wondering). 4:05pm- While speaking with the press aboard Air Force One, President Donald Trump was once again asked about potentially running for a third presidential term in 2028—responding: “If you read [the Constitution], it's pretty clear. I'm not allowed to run. It's too bad.” The 12th Amendment states: “no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.” 4:25pm- While speaking at The Connecticut Forum, former President Barack Obama suggested that we should “start experimenting with new forms of journalism and how we use social media” which “will require some government regulatory constraints” against “the most hateful voices.” But who decides which voices are hateful? 4:40pm- Greg Rothman— Chairman of the Pennsylvania Republican Party & Pennsylvania State Senator, serving the 34th district—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to preview Election Day. He explains that everyone is expecting low turnout, so your vote will be especially valuable on Tuesday. 5:05pm- Bill D'Agostino— Senior Research Analyst at Media Research Center—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to break down some of the best (and worst) moments from corporate media and Democrats. Plus, what the heck is CNN “All Access” and why would anyone subscribe to it? Will it at least last longer than CNN+—which shutdown after just 30 days? 5:50pm- In a post to Truth Social, President Donald Trump wrote: “Virginia and New Jersey, VOTE REPUBLICAN IF YOU WANT MASSIVE ENERGY COST AND CRIME REDUCTIONS.
