Subscribe to Forever Strong Insider: https://foreverstrong.supercast.comIn this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Heidi van den Brink; one of the only scientists in the world studying the ovarian transition from fertility to menopause. Together, they unpack what textbooks and wellness influencers often miss: the biology behind how your ovaries, uterus, metabolism, and nutrition interact across every stage of a woman's life. Dr. Heidi reveals the never-before-seen dynamics of the ovarian cycle, how follicles develop in “waves,” and what really happens during the menopause transition. They discuss how undernutrition, obesity, and metabolic health shape reproductive hormones; why early menarche and delayed ovulation matter for long-term health; and the surprising connection between your gut microbiome, bile acids, and fertility. If you've ever been told to “balance your hormones” with seed cycling, apps, or supplements, this episode separates myths from mechanisms. It's a masterclass in understanding the science of your hormones and how to truly support reproductive health through every decade of life.Chapter Markers0:00 - Can You Get Pregnant While on Your Period? 1:21 - Intro to Dr. Heidi & Ovarian Cycle Research 3:39 - The Uterine Cycle vs. The Ovarian Cycle 6:19 - Follicle Waves: The Hidden Drama in Your Ovaries 10:38 - Novel Discovery: Follicle Waves in the Luteal Phase 12:00 - Why One Follicle is Selected for Ovulation 13:17 - Does Nutrition Affect Ovarian Function? 14:48 - The Variation in Menstrual Cycles (It's Not Always 28 Days) 17:23 - The Impact of Obesity on the Ovarian Cycle 18:11 - The Problem of Luteal Phase Defects & Fertility 24:52 - Ovarian Morphology as a Bio-Marker of Health 26:54 - How Undernutrition Affects Ovarian Health 31:56 - The Metabolic Tipping Point of PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) 33:26 - The Myth of the "String of Pearls" Ovary 35:25 - The Menopause Transition & Rogue Follicles 39:04 - Can We Predict Menopause by Scanning Ovaries? 45:59 - Early Menarche (First Period) and Long-Term Disease Risk 48:33 - The Surprising Link Between Puberty Timing and Environment 52:28 - The Role of Leptin in Reproductive Health 55:50 - Debunking the Myth: Can Nutrition Cure PCOS? 59:07 - PCOS Diet Myths (Fruit, Timing, and Supplements) 1:04:40 - Fish Oil for Menstrual Cramps (Dysmenorrhea) 1:08:37 - Breakthrough: Bile Acid, The Gut Microbiome, and Ovulation 1:11:50 - Closing RemarksWho is Heidi Vanden Brink:Dr. Vanden Brink is a reproductive physiologist with over a decade of research in nutrition, metabolism, and female reproductive health.

We dive into a critical examination of the 3rd Ku Klux Klan. This episode challenges the notion that the Klan was simply a product of its time to be understood as a bad group of individuals representing white supremacy, as opposed to a strain of white supremacy that many people opposed. We return with Rasul Mowatt to review the history of the KKK's decline in the 1940s and 50s to its resurgence through multiple chapters during the Civil Rights Movement. Discover the tactics, motivations, and ultimate failures of the Klan in preventing the formal end of Jim Crow. We'll also delve into the Greensboro massacre and its precursors, examining the characters involved and the tragic events of November 3rd, 1979, and the accountability (or lack thereof) that followed. Finally, we explore how even within white supremacist circles, there was pushback against their extreme methods, ultimately paving the way for a new, darker white power movement.

Ben Feder has done it all: CEO of Take-Two Interactive during the GTA and Red Dead years, President of Tencent's International Partnerships, and board member at Epic Games and Bad Robot.

The Roman emperor Julian (r. 361-363 CE) was a man of action and of letters, which he employed in an effort to return the Empire to the light of the pagan gods, and reverse the Christianization of the empire advanced by his uncle Constantine and the sons of Constantine. This enterprise was inspired and guided by his conversion to the Neoplatonic philosophy and radical pagan Hellenism of Iamblichus and his disciples, and promoted by his production of Greek orations, letters, and satires. These works present a coherent vision of the providentially guided history and destiny of Rome as a series of foundations and refoundations enacted by rulers such as Romulus, Numa, and Caesar Augustus. As this book demonstrates, Julian offers an Iamblichean approach to the exegesis of the legends of Rome's founding, the allegories of Plato's dialogues, and myths of his own creation in order to articulate his own role in the refounding of the Empire. Furthermore, argues Jeremy Swist, approaching the wider examination of Julian's imperial self-image on these terms ends up nuancing and challenging common assumptions influenced by the rhetoric of his contemporary proponents. In his reverence for the gods and for philosophy, the emperor's self-construction embraces the identities of a statesman and soldier more than of a philosopher, of a Roman more than a Greek, and of a mere human rather than a semi-divine being. While distancing himself from the ideal models of philosophical virtue and imperial founding that inspire his own actions, he adopts a different set of exemplary figures as mirrors of himself.

#furtheryourlifestyle #podcast Watch the VIDEO PODCAST here: https://youtu.be/H2Gzk_kdBwoFurther Your Lifestyle Podcast | EP 235In episode 235 of the Further Your Lifestyle podcast, host Chris delves into the concept of balancing ambition with contentment. He explores the societal pressure to constantly chase after more success, validation, and achievements, and contrasts it with the underappreciated power of recognizing when we have enough. Chris discusses four key talking points: the myth of just one more thing, when growth becomes greed, the power of declaring enough, and realizing what we once wished for. Through these discussions, Chris emphasizes the importance of understanding one's own goals, finding satisfaction in current achievements, and not losing sight of the present moment while still maintaining ambition.00:00 Welcome to Episode 235: Chasing More vs. Choosing Enough02:07 The Myth of Just One More Thing04:30 When Growth Becomes Greed05:32 Building Something Meaningful vs. Staying Busy06:47 The Power of Declaring 'This is Enough'08:16 Realizing You Already Have What You Once Wished For10:31 Balancing Work and Life12:01 Final Thoughts and EncouragementPodcast Sponsors:Robert PiperHi Voltage BargainsEthan “Rooshock” The BOLO Hunter 2ndHandGuy Vic▬▬▬▬ CONNECT ▬▬▬▬PODCAST: http://podcast.furtheryourlifestyle.com/Podcast Merchhttps://www.furrii.com/collections/podcast-merch► SUBSCRIBE to the podcast on▹ Spotify | https://bit.ly/FYL_Spotify▹ Apple Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_Apple▹ Google Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_GooglePod► Let's CONNECT on social media:▹ instagram | http://www.instagram.com/furtheryourlifestyle▹ twitter | http://www.twitter.com/furtheryourlife▹ email | hello@furtheryourlifestyle.com► WEBSITE▹ www.furtheryourlifestyle.com» Newsletter: https://artisanal-teacher-7863.ck.page/d2d8345cfbMUSIC:» via https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/6hfvrvContinue the conversation: @furtheryourlifestyleJoin the Newsletter: check it out

Send us a textThe End of Minus — Mastering Love in A Course in MiraclesWhat if “lack” is just bad math… and love has no minus sign? In this episode, we dive deep into The Mastery of Love as presented in A Course in Miracles and expose the unconscious arithmetic that keeps us counting losses, tracking decline, and budgeting our worth.Using the striking example of negative numbers, we reveal how the ego's logic is expertly designed to organize illusions—without ever touching what's real.✨ Key Highlights:Love has no opposite. Minus values don't exist in truth—so why do we keep living as if they do?Wholeness cannot be fractioned. Withholding love from even one person fractures our awareness of unity.Time scarcity, aging, debt, fixed income, “falling behind”—we unpack all these common scripts as mental accounting errors, not spiritual reality.Atonement as practical correction: Not a payment or negotiation, but the recognition that separation never occurred.Readiness vs accomplishment: Readiness opens the door. Accomplishment is walking through it.Confidence follows mastery—not the other way around. We learn to choose truth consistently without waiting to feel certain first.You'll hear simple, actionable steps to:Notice a feeling without naming it a problem,Drop the story that tries to explain it,Invite reinterpretation from the Holy Spirit,Choose again—this time for love.We illuminate why fear can't be mastered (it's not real) and love can be mastered—by choosing not to abandon it in the smallest moments of everyday life.✨ If you're ready to live without a minus sign… this episode is for you.Press play, subscribe, and share it with a friend who's done measuring life in terms of loss and is ready to remember wholeness.

Unlocked after 1 year for patrons only -- We examine the Epic of Gilgamesh as a piece of literature, for its strange dream-like style and form, its points of similarity to Biblical and ancient Greek and European mythology, and finally, its deep levels of psychological and political allegory, ultimately revealing the love between Enkidu and Gilgamesh as a parable of the fraught relationship between civilization and the wild.

Then, in Gods and Monsters, a demonic spirit lurks in the seas off the coast of Scotland. Source: German/Scottish Folklore

Dr. Edens debunks common misconceptions, such as vaccines causing autoimmune diseases or always triggering flares. She explains that while mild immune responses are normal, serious complications are extremely rare and the benefits far outweigh the risks. Dr Edens emphasizes that vaccines not only prevent infections but also certain cancers, making them an essential part of care for immunosuppressed patients. The discussion also explores vaccine timing with medications, the dangers of misinformation, and how to talk about vaccine hesitancy with empathy and evidence.Episode at a glance:Guest Expert: Dr. Cuoghi Edens, dual-trained adult and pediatric rheumatologist at the University of Chicago.Myth #1: “Natural is better than vaccines” — Debunked; vaccines dramatically reduce child and adult mortality from infectious diseases.Myth #2: “Vaccines cause autoimmune diseases” — Overwhelming evidence shows they do not.Myth #3: “Vaccines always cause flare-ups” — Possible but uncommon; most patients tolerate vaccines well, and disease prevention outweighs brief discomfort.Risk–Benefit Balance: Vaccines protect against infections and cancers (HPV, hepatitis B) that can worsen or complicate autoimmune diseases.Timing & Medications: ACR guidelines suggest coordination with treatments like rituximab and high-dose steroids, but partial protection is better than none.Health Literacy Tip: “Doing research” means reviewing credible scientific evidence—not social-media opinions or cherry-picked studies.Social Stigma: Addresses misinformation, polarization, and “anti-vax” rhetoric, highlighting the need for compassion and critical thinking.Trusted Resources: Children's Hospital of Philadelphia vaccine education site and American College of Rheumatology guidelines.Key Takeaway: Vaccines are safe, vital, and empowering tools for people with autoimmune diseases.Medical disclaimer: All content found on Arthritis Life public channels (including Rheumer Has It) was created for generalized informational purposes only.

Subscribe now to skip the ads and get all of our episodes! Danny and Derek speak with historian Fara Dabhoiwala, author of What Is Free Speech? The History of a Dangerous Idea, about the complex history of one of liberalism's proudest ideals, and how it largely emerged from hypocrisy and self-interest. They trace its 18th-century birth in the polemics of corrupt British journalists, its exclusion of women and colonized peoples, the U.S. founders' rejection of France's more balanced model, and the later reappropriation of the slogan by abolitionists and reformers. The group also traces free speech's evolution through the Cold War and into the age of Big Tech, revealing how a principle meant to liberate became a tool of power and a license for unaccountable media.

In this episode, Harvard primatologist Christine Webb challenges one of our deepest beliefs: that humans stand apart from the rest of nature. She traces the roots of human exceptionalism from Aristotle and Descartes to modern science, and explains why we still cling to hierarchies of intelligence. While most critiques of human exceptionalism focus on our moral obligation toward other species, Webb argues that they overlook what humanity stands to gain by letting go of its illusions of uniqueness and superiority. Christine Webb is a primatologist at Harvard's Department of Human Evolutionary Biology, with expertise in social behavior, cognition, and emotion. Her new book is The Arrogant Ape: The Myth of Human Exceptionalism and Why it Matters.
