On this Summer Friday, we've put together some of our favorite recent interviews, including: The U.S. fertility rate dropped to another record low in 2025, according to provisional CDC data, marking a 23% drop since 2007. Jill Filipovic, attorney and author of several books, including OK Boomer, Let's Talk: How My Generation Got Left Behind (Atria/One Signal Publishers, 2020),  and Karen Guzzo, director of the Carolina Population Center and a sociology professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, explain what's behind the decline, the current Republican and far-right conservative policy plans to try and reverse those trends and what actually works to incentivize a growing population. Alex Mayyasi, a longtime contributor to Planet Money and the author of Planet Money: A Guide to the Economic Forces That Shape Your Life (W. W. Norton & Company, 2026), and Mary Childs, a co-host of NPR's Planet Money, offers insight into making decisions on getting and spending money and why markets work the way they do. Manoush Zomorodi, host of NPR's TED Radio Hour and author of Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being (Flatiron, 2026), talks about the impact on our bodies of our interactions with our phones and other tech -- and how to stay healthy and stay connected. Stephanie Coontz, director of research and public education at the Council on Contemporary Families and the author of The Way We Never Were; Marriage, a History; and now, For Better and Worse: The Complicated Past and Challenging Future of Marriage (Viking, May 26, 2026), offers historical context for the institution of marriage and examines the attitudes and policies that can strengthen it. Martha Nussbaum, professor of law and ethics at the University of Chicago and the author of The Republic of Love: Opera & Political Freedom (Oxford University Press, 2026), offers her analysis of opera as an arm of the Enlightenment, from Mozart to today.   These interviews were lightly polished up and edited for time, the original versions are available here: Why U.S. Birth Rates Are Dropping Planet Money: The Book Our Bodies & Our Tech Marriage in Context Opera and Democracy   Photo: Labor Day weekend crowds at Rockaway Beach, Queens, New York, September 2020.

New Science Behind Reshaping Your BodyFor decades, we've been told that reshaping our bodies comes down to one simple formula: eat less and exercise more. But what if that advice is incomplete—or even keeping you stuck?In this episode, JJ Flizanes is joined once again by cardiologist and microbiome pioneer Dr. William Davis to explore the emerging science that's changing how we think about body composition, metabolism, aging, and long-term health. Together, they challenge the outdated focus on weight loss alone and introduce a more comprehensive approach to creating a healthier, stronger, and more resilient body.You'll discover why simply losing weight isn't enough—and how protecting your muscle, restoring your gut, regulating your nervous system, and reducing inflammation are all essential pieces of the puzzle.Dr. Davis explains the fascinating connections between the gut microbiome, liver function, insulin resistance, muscle mass, and abdominal fat, while JJ shares why unresolved emotional stress and nervous system dysregulation can prevent healing even when you're eating well and exercising consistently.Whether you're trying to lose fat, improve your energy, reverse metabolic dysfunction, navigate menopause, or simply age with strength and vitality, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on what's really driving your health.In This EpisodeWhy "lose weight" is an outdated and potentially harmful health goalThe difference between losing weight and reshaping your bodyHow preserving and building muscle protects your metabolism and longevityThe newly discovered gut-muscle, gut-liver, and gut-brain connectionsWhy insulin resistance begins long before diabetesThe hidden role your microbiome plays in fat storage and fatty liverWhy exercise recommendations need to be far more specific than "move more"How resistance training supports healthy aging without creating bulky musclesThe impact of chronic stress, cortisol, and fight-or-flight on digestion, fat storage, and healingWhy emotional regulation is a critical missing piece in lasting body transformationEnvironmental factors—including microplastics, PFAS, and pesticides—that may be influencing your healthPractical ways to measure progress beyond the number on the scaleHow new science is reshaping our understanding of metabolic health and longevityKey TakeawaysYour body isn't simply responding to calories in versus calories out. It's responding to your microbiome, nervous system, hormones, muscle mass, inflammation, environmental exposures, and emotional state.True body transformation isn't about becoming smaller—it's about becoming healthier, stronger, more metabolically flexible, and creating an internal environment where healing can actually occur.Mentioned in This EpisodeThe New Body Blueprint Cruise (February 2027)The upcoming New Body Blueprint online home study programGut microbiome restorationSmall Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)Insulin resistanceFatty liverResistance training and muscle preservationNervous system regulationRadical Remission researchEnvironmental toxins and metabolic healthConnect with JJWebsite: https://jjflizanes.comLearn more about the New Body Blueprint and upcoming opportunities at: https://TheNewBodyBlueprint.comGet in on the 3 week class! https://jjflizanes.com/3steps

In this third episode of our four-part adolescent literacy miniseries, Susan Lambert, Ed.D., speaks with Jeanne Schopf, interventionist, national literacy consultant, and editor of the new book Reading Isn't Optional: Fulfilling the Promise of Literacy for Secondary Students. Susan and Jeanne discuss why belief systems about at-risk readers are often the biggest barrier to change, and why that's true at every level of a school system.

For years on True Birth and in their OB/GYN practice, Dr. Abdelhak & Kristin Mallon have made an unpopular argument: when a baby is measuring big, the safest move is usually to induce, not to wait. The conventional literature did not back them up, and plenty of academics pushed back with the same line every time, that induction does not lower the risk of a cesarean or a shoulder dystocia. In this episode they walk through two pieces of high level evidence that land squarely on their side, and they explain why this was common sense all along. They start with the bigger cultural point. We do not have natural pregnancies anymore, so it is unrealistic to expect a uniformly natural birth. Electricity, processed food, far fewer daily steps, and later maternal age all push birth weights up, which means more babies are simply too big to deliver without help. Kristin brings the midwife lens to this, including a frank look at the Ina May Gaskin farm numbers and what they actually showed. From there they get into the data, share a real shoulder dystocia save from the floor, and detour into the things that genuinely scare them in delivery, like postpartum hemorrhage, plus Dr. Abdelic's running theory that growth problems are usually about the cord, not the placenta. The take home is blunt. If your provider tells you the baby is measuring large, the right question is not whether to induce. It is when. What we cover Why "natural birth" is a moving target in a non natural world The Ina May Gaskin farm numbers and what they really tell us The landmark randomized trial on inducing large for date babies The brand new 2026 meta analysis on induction at 38 weeks How estimated fetal weight, the 90th and 95th percentiles, and hospital induction rules actually play out in practice A real time shoulder dystocia at the bedside, handled without the fanfare Why hemorrhage, not shoulder dystocia, is the emergency that worries them most "It is all about the cord," and why placental insufficiency is the wrong framing The difference between cervical insufficiency and true preterm labor How to filter real clinical advice from social media noise The research referenced The randomized controlled trial (the Lancet study): Boulvain M, Senat MV, Perrotin F, et al. Induction of labour versus expectant management for large for date fetuses: a randomised controlled trial. Lancet. 2015;385(9987):2600 to 2605. A pragmatic trial across 19 centers in France, Switzerland, and Belgium. Women with singleton fetuses above the 95th percentile were randomized to induction between 37 0/7 and 38 6/7 weeks or to expectant management. Induction significantly reduced the composite of shoulder dystocia and associated morbidity, relative risk 0.32, 95% CI 0.15 to 0.71, p equals 0.004, without raising the cesarean rate and with more spontaneous vaginal deliveries. The 2026 meta analysis (the AJOG MFM study): Paladino, et al. Induction at 38 weeks for large for gestational age or macrosomic fetuses decreases the incidence of cesarean delivery: meta analysis of randomized controlled trials. Am J Obstet Gynecol MFM. 2026. Five randomized trials, 4,083 pregnant individuals, most induced at 38 0/7 to 38 4/7 weeks for an estimated weight above the 90th percentile. Induction lowered the cesarean rate and cut macrosomia (relative risk 0.53 for 4,000 grams or more, and 0.22 for 4,500 grams or more). Shoulder dystocia and fetal fracture both trended down but did not reach significance, which is expected for outcomes this rare. Roughly 25 inductions in this window prevent one cesarean. Key takeaways A big baby is the single biggest risk factor for shoulder dystocia, and a baby does not get smaller between 38 and 40 weeks. The evidence now shows that inducing for a large for date baby reduces shoulder dystocia and cesarean delivery and increases the odds of a vaginal birth. If you are told your baby is measuring large, come prepared to ask for induction rather than waiting to be offered it.

Rupert speaks with Jonas Atlas about the high cost of scientific heresy and what it reveals about the gap between science's public face and its private reality. Beginning with the 1981 Nature editorial that branded A New Science of Life "a book for burning," they trace how Rupert was effectively excommunicated from mainstream science, then turn to deeper questions: how to tell genuine inquiry from pseudoscience in a "post-truth" age flooded with AI-generated theories of everything, why morphic resonance remains a hypothesis to be tested rather than a truth to be defended, and why survey evidence suggests hardcore materialism is actually a minority view among working scientists who mostly stay quiet about it.First published on the Re-visioning Religion podcast, Sep 02, 2025.https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/re-visioning-religion/About Jonas: A scholar of religion, teaching at KDG University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Jonas is also an independent researcher at the Radboud University, as a member of the Race, Religion and Secularism network.

Why does your brain feel like it's working against you when you're depressed? In this episode, licensed marriage and family therapist Kati Morton answers deep viewer questions to unpack what is actively happening in the body and brain during depressive episodes and periods of suicidal ideation. We challenge the traditional "chemical imbalance" framework to look at the modern science of mental health: how different regions of the brain communicate, why your HPA axis can get stuck in a chronic stress response, and the clinical data pointing to systemic inflammation as a primary driver of depressive symptoms. Plus, Kati breaks down the absolute differences between clinical depression, situational sadness, grief, and passive vs. active suicidal thoughts.

Light runs one clock in your body. Food runs a completely different set of clocks — in our gut, our liver, our metabolism. And when those two signals misalign, we can negatively influence our health. This episode digs into meal timing through the lens of chrononutrition: the real science behind when we eat, what it does to the gut microbiome, and why a late-night dinner isn't just a calorie decision. Plus: what happens to your gut's rhythm after a disrupted week, and my own decades-long, still-imperfect evolution of meal timing and the pitfalls I mostly can now avoid!   LET'S TALK THE WALK!

Every one of us will experience pain, be it back pain, the pain of childbirth, or living in an aging body. Not a single one of us will escape. But what if everything you thought you knew about pain was ... wrong?Many of us have been told that pain is purely physical, something to do just with bones and body parts. In her revolutionary new book: Tell Me Where it Hurts: The New Science of Pain and How to HealLeading global pain psychologist, pain scientist, and Assistant Clinical Professor at the UCSF School of Medicine, Dr. Rachel Zoffness is completely upending the myths we've been sold about pain.Through cutting edge neuroscience and the incredible work she's done with her patients, Dr. Zoffness is shedding light on the fact is that chronic pain is treatable. And that the foundation for effective treatment happens when we focus on the whole person--not just a body part.It happens when we begin to reconnect physical and emotional pain,And it happens when we begin to uncover the often under-discussed truth: Pain is constructed by the brain--influenced not just by injuries, but also by emotions, expectations, and environment. In Rachel's words: Pain is always biopsychosocial.And because of this,We have infinitely more control over pain than we might have ever imagined.This insight, and the pioneering work Dr. Zoffness is doing, Are offering what so many of us need in the face of pain: Greater agency, Hope, Possibility, And perhaps most importantly, A roadmap for healing.For more on Dr. Zoffness, her books, events, resources, and other offerings please visit zoffness.comEnjoying the show?

Hi, this is Bill Young from the Prayer and Lunch Podcast. I hope everyone is doing well. It's Father's Day weekend 2026, and after nearly two years away from podcasting, I felt it was time to share some experiences and reflections that have deeply impacted my faith.Two years ago, I traveled to Sicily and visited Mount Etna, the only active volcano in Europe. While there, I witnessed unusual shapes in the steam rising from the volcano. At first, it appeared like a giant bird with its wings spread open, and later like birds flying upward. That experience stayed with me and eventually led me to read A New Science of Heaven by Robert Temple.Temple's book explores plasma science and the idea that plasma makes up most of the universe. Although the book itself is not religious, it raised spiritual questions for me about heaven, the afterlife, and the nature of reality.What especially caught my attention were the mysterious smoke rings observed at Mount Etna in April 2024. These rings appeared from April 2nd through April 9th — the period from Holy Thursday through Easter Monday. Reports spread worldwide as thousands of rings were seen rising from the volcano.As a Catholic, I reflected on these events spiritually. I began wondering whether these rising rings could symbolize souls ascending from purgatory to heaven. Since volcanoes contain fire, smoke, and heat, the imagery reminded me of the Catholic understanding of purgatory as a temporary place of purification before entering heaven.I understand science may explain these events differently. Some say people naturally see patterns or faces in clouds and light. Even my son suggested that some of the images in my photos may have been reflections from the bus windows. That may be true. Still, I cannot deny what I personally experienced and felt.Over the years, I've also had other moments that strengthened my faith. I attended the canonization Mass of Mother Teresa in Rome and witnessed unusual cloud formations that reminded me of rings and crosses. Later, while serving as a Eucharistic minister, I experienced what felt like a wing brushing across my back — a peaceful moment that reminded me of the presence of the Holy Spirit.These experiences do not scientifically prove anything, and I understand many people may disagree with my interpretations. But for me, they serve as reminders that faith, prayer, and the spiritual world are real.I encourage anyone interested in science and spirituality to explore Temple's book and reflect on the relationship between faith and the universe. Whether you agree or not, asking questions and searching for meaning matters.Thank you to everyone who still listens to the Prayer and Lunch Podcast after all these years. Your support means a great deal to me. God bless you all, and have a wonderful day.

With input costs remaining high and profit margins under pressure, producers are increasingly looking for ways to improve productivity without simply adding more fertilizer, more irrigation, or more crop inputs. In this episode of North American Ag Spotlight, host Chrissy Wozniak sits down with Chad Godsey, Chief Agronomist at Green Evolution Technologies, to discuss how growers are evaluating new technologies, why efficiency has become the new benchmark for success, and how innovations at the soil and root level may help unlock future yield gains.Chad brings a unique perspective to the conversation, combining a PhD in Agronomy and Soil Science with a lifetime of farming experience on his family's multi-generational Colorado farm. He shares how his work as a consultant across more than 100,000 acres has shaped his views on technology adoption and why today's farmers are demanding proven, measurable results before investing in new products.The discussion explores how growers are increasingly conducting their own on-farm trials to validate new technologies and why return on investment has become the deciding factor in purchasing decisions. Chad explains that while farmers have been inundated with new products in recent years, many are now focused on technologies that can consistently improve water-use efficiency and nutrient-use efficiency rather than simply promise yield increases.A major focus of the episode is Green Evolution Technologies' InteliGel hydrogel platform. Chad explains how the technology works by absorbing and storing water and nutrients within the soil profile, making them available to crops during periods of stress. He discusses how the hydrogel can be applied using existing farm equipment, reducing barriers to adoption while fitting into current farming practices.The conversation also dives into field trial results from corn and soybean production systems. Chad shares data from third-party research that demonstrated significant yield improvements and profitability gains, particularly during periods of late-season drought stress. He also discusses the potential for multi-year benefits from a single application, an important factor when evaluating long-term return on investment.Listeners will hear Chad's perspective on the challenges facing ag technology companies, including the common mistake of bringing products to market before they have been fully validated across different environments and management systems. He offers practical advice for growers evaluating new products, emphasizing the importance of establishing clear benchmarks and measuring efficiency improvements over time.Whether you're interested in water management, nutrient efficiency, precision agriculture, or the future of crop production, this episode offers valuable insights into how innovative technologies are helping farmers do more with less while maintaining profitability.Learn more about Green Evolution Technologies and InteliGel by visiting https://greenevolutiontechnologies.com, or send Chad an email with your questions to chad@hydrogel.us.Thank you to Chad Godsey for joining us on North American Ag Spotlight and sharing his expertise on the future of agricultural productivity.Send us Fan MailEcorobotix, together with DFS Finance & AgDirect, is making it easier for growers to access the ARA Ultra High Precision Sprayer.

Pure positive thinking sounds harmless, but what if it's the reason you keep failing on the goals you care about most?I'm Angela Shurina, and I'm unpacking a counterintuitive finding from motivation research: when we only fantasize about future success, our bodies can relax as if the win already happened, which makes needed effort less likely. We dig into Gabrielle Oettingen's work on the science of motivation and the practical technique called mental contrasting. You'll learn how to visualize a goal in a way that actually increases follow-through. This approach applies to weight loss, fitness, career growth, exams, interviews, personal finance, and any long-term goal that demands consistency. I also share stories that make the point real, from learning rollerblading through repeated falls to the “cost of getting lean” and the trade-offs behind visible abs. The big takeaway is simple: match the price with the prize, so setbacks stop feeling like surprises and start feeling like part of the plan.If this helps, subscribe, share it with one person who feels stuck, and leave a rating or review so more people can find the show.Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina  Certified Health, Sleep, Performance & Executive Coach 360 with 18 years of experience helping people change to feel, be and do their best.

“Fulfillment doesn't just magically increase. It increases because we've prioritized it.” — Dr. Kerry Burnight  Key Links  CenterWell Fulfillment Index Report is HERE  Dr. Kerry Burnight's book, JoySpan is HERE   Dr. Kerry Burnight's website is HERE  Info about Dr. Sanjay Shetty, President of CenterWell at Humana is HERE  Overview  What does it really mean to age well?  We talk a lot about blood pressure, cholesterol, bone density, muscle, brain health, and staying independent — and all of that matters. But there's another piece of aging better that we may not be paying enough attention to: fulfillment.  In this episode of Age Better, I'm joined by two terrific guests: Dr. Kerry Burnight, gerontologist and author of JoySpan, and Dr. Sanjay Shetty, President of CenterWell at Humana, the organization behind the new Fulfillment Index.  The report found that only 54% of adults over 62 say they feel fulfilled, which means nearly half do not. And as Dr. Shetty explains, fulfillment is about much more than physical health. It includes purpose, emotional stability, optimism, gratitude, connection, security, feeling valued, and the real-life conditions people are living with every day.  One of the most fascinating findings is that fulfillment can dip in the early retirement years, when people often expect life to feel easier and freer. But retirement is not just a financial transition. It can also be a shift in identity, structure, purpose, and the feeling that we're still needed.  Dr. Burnight brings this back to something deeply practical: fulfillment is not something we simply wait for. Like strength, it requires attention and practice. We talk about self-contentment, purpose with a “lowercase p,” why feeling seen matters so much, and how to move from feeling “meh” to feeling more connected, useful, and alive in your own life.  This conversation is especially important for women in their 50s, 60s, and beyond who may be asking: Who am I now? What do I want this next chapter to look like? And what can I do today to create a life that feels not only longer, but fuller?  In this episode, we talk about:  How fulfillment is different from happiness Why so many people can look “fine” on the outside but feel disconnected inside Why fulfillment may dip around retirement How purpose can be small and still deeply meaningful Why physical strength supports more than just your body How self-contentment helps us age with less regret and more compassion Why feeling seen, heard, appreciated, and valued is essential One simple practice to begin building more fulfillment right away  This episode will help you think differently about what it means to age better — and what you can start doing now to build more purpose, connection, strength, and meaning into the years ahead.  Subscribe to AGE BETTER so you never miss an episode!

In today's episode, Dr. Ruston interviews tech journalist Manoush Zomorodi about her book Body Electric and a movement to normalize periodic movement breaks from screens. Zomorodi talks about research that shows five minutes of gentle movement every 30 minutes can significantly improve glucose, blood pressure, focus, mood, and energy, and explains a large self-reported project with 20,000 participants testing breaks every 30 minutes, hour, or two hours. They discuss why standing desks aren't enough, how movement supports circulation and cognition, practical habit strategies, and parenting approaches to help motivate kids to move, such as framing movement as something kids "get to" do.   Expert: Manoush Zomorodi   Book: Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being, by Manoush Zomorodi   Research References: Breaking Up Prolonged Sitting to Improve Cardiometabolic Risk: Dose-Response Analysis of a Randomized Crossover Trial, Keith Diaz, PhD et al.   Resources: Screenagers Website Bring Screenagers to Your Community   Time Code:  00:00 Show Updates 00:28 Meet Manoush 02:40 Why Screens Exhaust Us 04:13 Five Minute Fix 06:49 Testing Movement Breaks 08:24 Citizen Science Approach 11:56 Lab Results Surprise 15:28 Standing Desk Myth 18:04 Making Breaks Stick 20:46 Listening to Your Body 21:30 Movement Mindset Shift 22:22 Screenagers Films Break 23:13 Parenting Without Shame 24:42 The Pandemic Questionnaire 26:35 Did You Get to Move 27:24 Airport Workouts Legacy 28:08 Tracking Steps Without Pressure 30:21 Be the Weirdo at Work 32:17 Movement Experiments With Kids 33:04 Part Two Tease and Resources 33:50 Where to Find Manoush 34:44 Podcast Wrap and Credits

Her new book, The Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being, explores the hidden health costs of sedentary, screen-heavy lifestyles and shares research showing that just five minutes of gentle movement every 30 minutes can significantly improve blood sugar, blood pressure, mood, and focus.

Jim talks with Peter Wang—chief AI officer, cofounder and CEO of Anaconda, board member of the Center for Humane Technology, and founder of the Austin STEM Center—about Robert Pirsig's metaphysics of quality, how modernity encourages defection, and a secular conception of the sacred. They discuss: Peter's self-description as "the music in a violin that can kind of hear itself" The "Peter Wang-shaped hole in the universe" thought experiment Subject-object Cartesian dualism as a false alienation Minimum viable metaphysics & atheistic agnosticism Religion as an evolutionary emergent coherence mechanism for human collectives Figure and ground as a metaphysical lens—the anonymous soil that allows religion to sprout The Unix fortune "Man was invented by water to carry itself uphill" & Peter's teleology origin story Process metaphysics & presentism—"we're not going anywhere, we're becoming someone" Pirsig's metaphysics of quality & the four strata of static patterns of value The intellectual plane vs. the social plane & Ken Wilber's pre-trans fallacy Defection within collaborative groups as the dynamic all human social systems try to constrain "Death from a Distance"—throwing, beta coalitions & the emergence of a middle class of power Modernity's shrinking locus of care & the collapse of embedded social context The agglomeration of defectors & how fluid capital enables sociopathic hoarding Money-on-money return as today's dominant pruning rule Joint attention as a scarce collective resource & social media's perforation of shared intersubjective infrastructure Human agency & "micro-abdications" as the aggregate source of Moloch / Game A The augmented currency thought experiment—metering human thriving alongside financial returns Broken collective sense-making & the search for dynamic, adaptable values Peter's secular conception of the sacred—the "eternal golden braid of humanity" "Ofness"—holding both distinctness and belonging to the world ... and much more.

Most credit cards have that little 3- or 4-digit security code you constantly get asked for when shopping online. It can feel like a nuisance—but that tiny number plays a surprisingly important role in reducing fraud in a very simple and effective way. https://www.chase.com/personal/credit-cards/education/basics/why-do-some-sites-not-require-cvv We tend to think of financial advice as timeless: buy a house, invest for the long term, diversify your portfolio, put your money in index funds. But history tells a much messier story. There were periods when stocks performed terribly, when home ownership was a bad investment, and when other “sensible” advice turned out to be disastrously wrong. Joseph Moore, historian, investor, and author of How to Get Rich in American History: 300 Years of Financial Advice That Worked (& Didn't) (https://amzn.to/4uDCdrv), explains how financial “wisdom” changes over time, why so much money advice is shaped by the era we happen to live in, and what history can teach us about building wealth today. We've all heard the warnings about sitting too much and spending too much time staring at screens. But modern life practically demands it. Hours at a desk, then more hours scrolling, streaming, emailing, and checking notifications. The problem is, researchers are beginning to discover that this screen-heavy lifestyle may quietly affect far more than we realize—from energy and sleep to mood, focus, and long-term health. Manoush Zomorodi, award-winning journalist, host of NPR's TED Radio Hour, and author of Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being (https://amzn.to/3PraStx), shares what science is uncovering about the physical and mental toll of modern digital life—and why small, surprisingly simple changes may make a meaningful difference. Revenge can feel incredibly satisfying—at least in your imagination. But what happens after you actually get even with someone?

Have you ever struggled with a problem—only to have the answer suddenly appear when you stopped trying? It feels almost like magic, but it's actually your brain working in a very specific way when you step back. https://drexel.edu/now/archive/2016/March/Insight_Correctness/ We all want to know what's going to happen next. But life doesn't work that way. In fact, the real challenge may not be uncertainty itself—but our growing discomfort with it. Simone Stolzoff, journalist and author of How to Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty in a World that Demands Answers (https://amzn.to/428rpWb), explains why we crave certainty, why that craving can make life harder, and how learning to tolerate—and even embrace—uncertainty can change the way you experience the world. You've probably heard that your health is shaped by both your genes and your lifestyle. But how much control do you really have? Are some outcomes unavoidable—or can your daily choices actually override genetic risk? Dr. Florence Comite, endocrinologist and expert in longevity and precision medicine, has spent decades studying how to optimize health at the individual level. In our conversation, she explains how genes influence your future, where they don't, and how understanding your personal biology can help you make smarter decisions to improve health and extend lifespan. She is author of Invincible: Defy Your Genetic Destiny to Live Better, Longer (https://amzn.to/3Pir404). In the middle of a tense conversation, it's easy for things to escalate quickly. But there's a simple three-word phrase that can instantly shift the tone—turning conflict into something more productive and less combative.

We talk a lot about what technology is doing to our minds. But what about everything below the neck? This week, Jessi is joined by Manoush Zomorodi, host of NPR's TED Radio Hour and author of Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age, and New Science to Reclaim Your Wellbeing. Unfortunately, a killer workout or a standing desk won't save us from the long-term health consequences of a sedentary lifestyle. But five minutes of gentle movement every half hour could. In fact, Manoush helped run a clinical trial with 23,000 people to prove it. Jessi and Manoush discuss: Why sitting all day drains your energy even when you haven't done anything The Columbia study that got 23,000 people moving, and what it proved Why standing desks aren't actually the fix we thought they were The "garden hose" model of what happens to your arteries when you sit or stand too long How people can restructure their workdays (and their calendars) to make movement stick What "information athletes" can learn from dancers, musicians, and pilots The shift from screen-shaming to something kinder and more practical This one might make you want to stand up and take a lap while listening. That's kind of the point. Follow Manoush Zomorodi and Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn.
