Podcasts about Normal

Today we're doing a full life catch-up and talking through everything that's been happening lately, from funny moments to some more thoughtful conversations. Dani shares the sweetest morning with her pregnant friends, we attempt a cool date night at one of the hottest spots in Dallas and somehow still end up in bed by 9, and then things really spiral when we hire a magician to literally cut Tornado in half for a vitamin shoot. You know. Normal life stuff. We also talk friendships, parent life, planning Dani's baby “drizzle,” and the pressure to have an opinion about everything on the internet. Just real conversations, a little chaos, and us figuring it out as we go.

Anne Ghesquière welcomes Dr Gabor Maté, a world-renowned physician, speaker, and bestselling author. Dr Gabor Maté explore a radically different view of health and human beings and invites us to shift our perspective, to stop asking “What's wrong with me?” and begin asking the far more compassionate question: “What happened to me?”What if what we call “normal” is actually deeply unbalanced? Why is there so much psychological and physical suffering in so-called developed societies? What if many of today's illnesses, anxieties, trauma and addictions are not personal failures, but intelligent responses to a world that asks us to disconnect from ourselves? How can we understand the deep links between trauma, the body, emotions, and behavior? His latest book, The Myth of Normal, is published in French by Guy Trèdaniel Editions, le Mythe de la normalité. Discover his psychotherapeutic approach on his site. Episode #664Some quotes from the podcast with Dr Gabor Maté:“Normal doesn't mean healthy or natural. Normal often just means common.”“Trauma is not what happened to you.Trauma is what happened inside you.”"Nobody is broken.

This funny news show starts with Valentine's Day confusion and quickly spirals into a full-on identity crisis. Rizz is possibly spending Valentine's Day alone, possibly with DJ Pauly D, definitely not wearing pants—and that's just the beginning. From not knowing zodiac signs (but somehow surviving marriage) to realizing that birthdays close to Valentine's Day are a strategic advantage, the crew kicks things off with peak relationship chaos.Then comes the house rating heard 'round St. Louis. Rafe's new place gets evaluated like a Zillow listing with emotional baggage, complete with debates over shoveling etiquette, floating stairs, blind dogs, and the slowest move-in process known to man. Somehow, this leads to lunch, which turns into a bit, which turns into strangers questioning reality as Rafe pretends to be a superfan in public. Normal stuff.From there, the show leans hard into the realization that everyone is officially old now. Grocery stores are playing bangers. Bars are confusing. Costco is no longer a chore—it's an experience. Socks slap. Grapes are elite. Clothes are “not that bad.” And the biggest shock of all? Costco and Nike teaming up to release Kirkland Dunks that immediately resell for stupid money. The dads are not okay.The episode wraps with minivan supremacy, sneaker generational debates, knowing where the nearest hospital is at all times, and the quiet acceptance that this daily comedy show is now powered by dad logic, utility vehicles, and bulk pricing. Laugh through the pain—it's cheaper than therapy.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Where Science, Shadow Work, and Spirit Collide to Manifest Your Miracles.You're doing everything “right,” but your manifestations are stalled. You've cleared your childhood trauma, saged your apartment, said the affirmations. So why the hell does it still feel like you're stuck?Let me break it down. Most people aren't blocked because of their mindset or karma or even their trauma. You're blocked because of five sneaky habits that feel normal but quietly sabotage everything you're trying to build. And if you don't call them out, you'll keep wondering why nothing's changing.Episode Takeaways:• How over-explaining yourself blocks momentum • Why waiting to feel motivated keeps you stuck • How consuming information replaces decision-making • Why keeping options open can stall your life • How calling self-abandonment “being realistic” limits growthNone of these habits mean you're broken. They're patterns rooted in your nervous system, not your potential. And the minute you stop calling them personality traits and start seeing them as protective adaptations, you take your power back. Real growth happens when you choose safety over self-pressure.✨ MANIFESTING MIRACLES ACADEMY ✨(previously called Secret Society of Manifestors)Your Gateway to Manifesting Wealth, Love, Joy, and Freedom.Join now: https://manifestingmiracles.thinkific.com/pages/memberships⬆️ Try it out for free for one month!

Chronic fatigue. Nervous system dysregulation. Normal labs… but you still feel terrible. In this episode, we interview CFS Recovery founder Miguel Bautista, who went from bedridden and hospitalized with 50+ symptoms to full recovery using neuroplasticity and nervous system retraining. We break down why many chronic illness protocols fail, how symptom “whack-a-mole” keeps people stuck, and the critical difference between symptom suppression and true resilience recovery. You'll learn about the stress threshold model, the magnifying glass effect of fear and symptom tracking, and why many high-achieving personalities are more vulnerable to nervous system collapse after prolonged stress or illness. If you're dealing with chronic fatigue syndrome, long COVID, burnout, or mystery symptoms with normal labs — this episode will change how you see healing.

Some books entertain.Some books inform.And then there are books that unsettle you—and quietly change how you see the world, your kids, and the systems shaping their lives. In this episode, Kylie and I step away from parenting advice (just briefly) to share the books that mattered most to us in 2025. These aren’t light beach reads. They’re confronting, provocative, and deeply relevant for parents raising children in a digital, diagnosed, distracted world. If you love books—and you care about the future your kids are growing up in—this one stays with you. Books & Resources Mentioned Boys — Dr Justin Coulson (join the waitlist to learn more!)

I talk about how the fitness industry has marketed against our insecurities for decades and why that approach never actually fixes the mental tug of war around food, exercise, and the mirror.I share a different way forward that starts with how you see yourself, not with another plan or program. When you build appreciation and respect for yourself at every stage, everything else changes. Your approach to eating becomes preference based instead of restrictive. Your approach to movement becomes something you enjoy or are willing and able to do. From that calm headspace and deliberate pace, the actions become sustainable and the results become a byproduct instead of the obsession.We also talk about why habit based coaching works and where it falls apart if you ignore the emotional side of weight loss. I explain why an inside/out approach matters, how to track progress without spiraling, and why focusing on what you can control brings you back into a sense of competence and calm. This is about building a foundation you can return to no matter what challenge, diet, or phase you experiment with along the way.This episode is about creating a new normal in weight loss, one built around confidence, capability, and a forever active lifestyle that actually fits your life.Please share this episode with anyone you think would be interested in listening to it.Visit darylperrypodcast.com for links to the show page on each of the major podcast directories.

What does it mean to be ill? In episode 159 of Overthink, Ellie and David discuss illness. They explore how illness has been mythologized, how it may alienate us from our bodies, and how it impacts social relationships. Is science the solution to the mythologization of illness, or is the scientific model of illness its own form of mythology? How should we conceptualize illness? Is it as a “deviation” from a norm? And if so, what norm? Finally, what can we learn about illness from a phenomenological approach that centers the patient's first-person experience? In the Substack bonus segment, your hosts think about the distinction between the mental and the physical in connection to illness and the intersection between mind and body in illness.

Is it normal to feel like you're losing your mind after infidelity or an affair? Racing thoughts, panic, obsessive replay, and emotional chaos after being cheated on explained through neuroscience and biblical truth. If you've experienced any of this after an affair, this episode will bring clarity, validation, and hope. In this episode, betrayal trauma and marriage recovery coach Lisa Limehouse explains—through real neuroscience and biblical truth—why infidelity causes such intense mental and emotional distress, and why what you're experiencing is not weakness, lack of faith, or failure to heal. You'll learn: What's actually happening in your brain and nervous system after betrayal Why both the betrayed spouse and the unfaithful spouse feel dysregulated (in different ways) How trauma hijacks logic, memory, and emotional control Why Scripture validates grief, confusion, and lament after covenant betrayal 3 practical, neuroscience-backed and faith-anchored ways to calm your mind when betrayal thoughts spiral This episode speaks directly to: ✔️ Betrayed spouses who feel overwhelmed, obsessed, or emotionally unstable ✔️ Unfaithful spouses who feel stuck in shame, defensiveness, or shutdown ✔️ Couples trying to understand why healing feels so hard after infidelity Lisa also shares why healing requires more than time, prayer alone, or “better communication”—and how couples can move forward through a structured, Christ-centered healing process inside Marriage Redesigned™. If infidelity has left you questioning your sanity, your faith, or your future—this episode will help you understand what's happening and take your next step toward true healing.

Is your teen's behavior a sign that something is “wrong”… or could it be part of normal development in a high-pressure world?When should parents seek help—and when might labels actually do more harm than good? In this powerful and thought-provoking episode, Colleen O'Grady sits down with child and adolescent psychiatrist Dr. Sami Timimi, author of Searching for Normal. With over 35 years in the UK's National Health Service, Dr. Timimi challenges many of the assumptions parents have been taught about teen mental health. Together, they explore why diagnoses like ADHD, autism, anxiety, and depression have exploded—and why medicalizing distress can sometimes steal hope instead of restoring it. This conversation reframes teen behavior through the lens of context, development, relationships, and resilience, reminding parents that emotions are not emergencies and that most teens are not broken—they're responding to a stressful world. About Dr. Sami Timimi Dr. Sami Timimi is a British child and adolescent psychiatrist with more than three decades of clinical experience in the UK's National Health Service. He has authored numerous academic papers and books and is widely known for his critiques of the over-medicalization of mental health. In Searching for Normal, Dr. Timimi offers a deeply humane, evidence-based challenge to psychiatric labeling and invites families to reclaim a more hopeful, relational understanding of distress. Three Takeaways for Parents Distress is not the same as disorder. Many teen struggles are understandable responses to pressure, change, and context—not signs of lifelong pathology. Labels shape identity—and not always in helpful ways. Diagnoses can unintentionally limit teens, increase fear, and turn temporary struggles into permanent stories. Relationships matter more than control. Teens don't need to be “fixed”—they need connection, patience, and adults who aren't afraid of emotions.

You finally slow down… but your body doesn't.In this episode of the Free to Be Mindful Podcast, Vanessa De Jesus Guzman explores what happens when chronic stress becomes so familiar that it no longer feels like stress at all.

In this eye-opening episode of the 247 Real Talk Podcast, your host takes on a hard truth: just because something has been accepted for generations does not mean it has to be your destiny. From trauma and silence to poverty, broken relationships, and limiting beliefs, many of us were handed a “normal” that was never healthy in the first place.We'll dig into:How generational acceptance quietly teaches us what to tolerate, even when it hurts usWhy “that's just how it's always been” is one of the most dangerous sentences we can believePractical steps to recognize unhealthy cycles, challenge them, and start writing a different story for yourself—and those who come after youIf you've ever felt the tension between where you come from and who you know you could be, this conversation is for you. You are not disloyal for healing. You are not arrogant for dreaming bigger. You are not trapped in patterns just because you were born into them.Watch, share this with someone trying to break their own generational cycles, and drop a comment about one belief, habit, or “normal” you refuse to pass on.Subscribe to 247 Real Talk Podcast for more raw, honest conversations about identity, healing, courage, and building a future that's chosen—not inherited.

On this episode of In Pursuit with Rich Froning, Rich sits down with Father Steven Gadberry (the same Father Steven you’ve seen on the Shawn Ryan Podcast) for a mix of backcountry stories, real faith, and a lot of laughs.They relive the “Gunnison days”—two guys who had no business being that deep in the mountains, a bull elk at 54.5 yards, and the kind of near-miss you never forget. Then it gets even crazier: a snowstorm that turned into a full-on survival scramble, getting turned around on the ridge, and the legendary GoPro freakout that still makes camp laugh.From there, Father Steven shares why solo time in the mountains can be miserable at first—but powerful once the noise finally dies—plus the simple practices he leans on out there: Scripture, journaling, and silence. They also hit whitetails, kids getting into hunting, and why the “trophy” talk is mostly noise—any hard-earned animal is worth celebrating.

Mast Cell Activation Syndrome is one of the most misunderstood, and underrecognized, conditions in modern medicine. In this episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Dr. Lawrence Afrin, one of the world's leading experts on mast cell disease, to unpack why MCAS is so often missed, why tryptase alone is not enough to diagnose it, and how this condition may be driving chronic inflammation, neurologic symptoms, psychiatric symptoms, and even hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) in some patients. They talk about why MCAS can look completely different from one person to the next, how mast cells influence nearly every system in the body, and why so many patients are told “nothing is wrong” despite being profoundly unwell. We also explore emerging treatments, including GLP-1 medications, and what the future of MCAS research may hold. If you or your patients live with complex, multisystem symptoms that don't fit neatly into one diagnosis, this conversation may change how you see everything. Takeaways: MCAS rarely looks like classic allergy, which is why it's so often overlooked. Normal tryptase does not rule out mast cell disease, despite what many clinicians believe. Chronic multisystem inflammation is the biggest red flag for MCAS. MCAS may help explain hypermobile EDS in some patients, not as a genetic collagen defect but as an immune-driven process. New therapies are discussed, offering real hope for improved quality of life. Find the episode transcript here.

Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) are common, often misunderstood, and increasingly encountered in pediatric emergency care. These events closely resemble epileptic seizures but arise from abnormal brain network functioning rather than epileptiform activity. In this episode of PEM Currents, we review the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and clinical features of PNES in children and adolescents, with a practical focus on Emergency Department recognition, diagnostic strategy, and management. Particular emphasis is placed on seizure semiology, avoiding iatrogenic harm, communicating the diagnosis compassionately, and understanding how early identification and referral to cognitive behavioral therapy can dramatically improve long-term outcomes. Learning Objectives Identify key epidemiologic trends, risk factors, and semiological features that help differentiate psychogenic nonepileptic seizures from epileptic seizures in pediatric patients presenting to the Emergency Department. Apply an evidence-based Emergency Department approach to the evaluation and initial management of suspected PNES, including strategies to avoid unnecessary escalation of care and medication exposure. Demonstrate effective, patient- and family-centered communication techniques for explaining the diagnosis of PNES and facilitating timely referral to appropriate outpatient therapy.

Welcome to PEM Currents: The Pediatric Emergency Medicine Podcast. As always, I'm your host, Brad Sobolewski, and today we are talking about psychogenic non-epileptic seizures, or PNES. Now, this is a diagnosis that often creates a lot of uncertainty in the Emergency Department. These episodes can be very scary for families and caregivers and schools. And if we mishandle the diagnosis, it can lead to unnecessary testing, medication exposure, ICU admissions, and long-term harm. This episode's gonna focus on how to recognize PNES in pediatric patients, how we make the diagnosis, what the evidence says about management and outcomes, and how what we do and what we say in the Emergency Department directly affects patients, families, and prognosis. Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures are paroxysmal events that resemble epileptic seizures but occur without epileptiform EEG activity. They're now best understood as a subtype of functional neurological symptom disorder, specifically functional or dissociative seizures. Historically, these events were commonly referred to as pseudo-seizures, and that term still comes up frequently in the ED, in documentation, and sometimes from families themselves. The problem is that pseudo implies false, fake, or voluntary, and that implication is incorrect and harmful. These episodes are real, involuntary, and distressing, even though they're not epileptic. Preferred terminology includes psychogenic non-epileptic seizures, or PNES, functional seizures, or dissociative seizures. And PNES is not a diagnosis of exclusion, and it does not require identification of psychological trauma or psychiatric disease. The diagnosis is based on positive clinical features, ideally supported by video-EEG, and management begins with clear, compassionate communication. The overall incidence of PNES shows a clear increase over time, particularly from the late 1990s through the mid-2010s. This probably reflects improved recognition and access to diagnostic services, though a true increase in occurrence can't be excluded. Comorbidity with epilepsy is really common and clinically important. Fourteen to forty-six percent of pediatric patients with PNES also have epilepsy, which frequently complicates diagnosis and contributes to diagnostic delay. Teenagers account for the highest proportion of patients with PNES, especially 15- to 19-year-olds. Surprisingly, kids under six are about one fourth of all cases, so it's not just teenagers. We often make the diagnosis of PNES in epilepsy monitoring units. So among children undergoing video-EEG, about 15 to 19 percent may ultimately be diagnosed with PNES. And paroxysmal non-epileptic events in tertiary epilepsy monitoring units account for about 15 percent of all monitored patients. Okay, but what is PNES? Well, it's best understood as a disorder of abnormal brain network functioning. It's not structural disease. The core mechanisms at play include altered attention and expectation, impaired integration of motor control and awareness, and dissociation during events. So the patients are not necessarily aware that this is happening. Psychological and psychosocial features are common but not required for diagnosis and may be less prevalent in pediatric populations as compared with adults. So PNES is a brain-based disorder. It's not conscious behavior, it's not malingering, and it's not under voluntary control. Children and adolescents with PNES have much higher rates of psychiatric comorbidities and psychosocial stressors compared to both healthy controls and children with epilepsy alone. Psychiatric disorders are present in about 40 percent of pediatric PNES patients, both before and after the diagnosis. Anxiety is seen in 58 percent, depression in 31 percent, and ADHD in 35 percent. Compared to kids with epilepsy, the risk of psychiatric disorders in PNES is nearly double. Compared to healthy controls, it is up to eight times higher. And there's a distinct somatopsychiatric profile that strongly predicts diagnosis of PNES. This includes multiple medical complaints, psychiatric symptoms, high anxiety sensitivity, and solitary emotional coping. This profile, if you've got all four of them, carries an odds ratio of 15 for PNES. Comorbid epilepsy occurs in 14 to 23 percent of pediatric PNES cases, and it's associated with intellectual disability and prolonged diagnostic delay. And finally, across all demographic strata, anxiety is the most consistent predictor of PNES. Making the diagnosis is really hard. It really depends on a careful history and detailed analysis of the events. There's no single feature that helps us make the diagnosis. So some of the features of the spells or events that have high specificity for PNES include long duration, so typically greater than three minutes, fluctuating or asynchronous limb movements, pelvic thrusting or side-to-side head movements, ictal eye closure, often with resisted eyelid opening, ictal crying or vocalization, recall of ictal events, and rare association with injury. Younger children often present with unresponsiveness. Adolescents more commonly demonstrate prominent motor symptoms. In pediatric cohorts, we most frequently see rhythmic motor activity in about 27 percent, and complex motor movements and dialeptic events in approximately 18 percent each. Features that argue against PNES include sustained cyanosis with hypoxia, true lateral tongue biting, stereotyped events that are identical each time, clear postictal confusion or lethargy, and obviously epileptic EEG changes during the events themselves. Now there are some additional historical and contextual clues that can help us make the diagnosis as well. If the events occur in the presence of others, if they occur during stressful situations, if there are psychosocial stressors or trauma history, a lack of response to antiepileptic drugs, or the absence of postictal confusion, this may suggest PNES. Lower socioeconomic status, Medicaid insurance, homelessness, and substance use are also associated with PNES risk. While some of these features increase suspicion, again, video-EEG remains the diagnostic gold standard. We do not have video-EEG in the ED. But during monitoring, typical events are ideally captured and epileptiform activity is not seen on the EEG recording. Video-EEG is not feasible for every single diagnosis. You can make a probable PNES diagnosis with a very accurate clinical history, a vivid description of the signs and appearance of the events, and reassuring interictal EEG findings. Normal labs and normal imaging do not make the diagnosis. Psychiatric comorbidities are not required. The diagnosis, again, rests on positive clinical features. If the patient can't be placed on video-EEG in a monitoring unit, and if they have an EEG in between events and it's normal, that can be supportive as well. So what if you have a patient with PNES in the Emergency Department? Step one, stabilize airway, breathing, circulation. Take care of the patient in front of you and keep them safe. Use seizure pads and precautions and keep them from falling off the bed or accidentally injuring themselves. A family member or another team member can help with this. Avoid reflexively escalating. If you are witnessing a PNES event in front of you, and if they're protecting their airway, oxygenating, and hemodynamically stable, avoid repeated benzodiazepines. Avoid intubating them unless clearly indicated, and avoid reflexively loading them with antiseizure medications such as levetiracetam or valproic acid. Take a focused history. You've gotta find out if they have a prior epilepsy diagnosis. Have they had EEGs before? What triggered today's event? Do they have a psychiatric history? Does the patient have school stressors or family conflict? And then is there any recent illness or injury? Only order labs and imaging when clinically indicated. EEG is not widely available in the Emergency Department. We definitely shouldn't say things like, “this isn't a real seizure,” or use outdated terms like pseudo-seizure. Don't say it's all psychological, and please do not imply that the patient is faking. If you see a patient and you think it's PNES, you're smart, you're probably right, but don't promise diagnostic certainty at first presentation. Remember, a sizable proportion of these patients actually do have epilepsy, and referring them to neurology and getting definitive testing can really help clarify the diagnosis. Communication errors, especially early on, worsen outcomes. One of the most difficult things is actually explaining what's going on to families and caregivers. So here's a suggestion. You could say something like: “What your child is experiencing looks like a seizure, but it's not caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Instead, it's what we call a functional seizure, where the brain temporarily loses control of movement and awareness. These episodes are real and involuntary. The good news is that this condition is treatable, especially when we address it early.” The core treatment of PNES is CBT-based psychotherapy, or cognitive behavioral therapy. That's the standard of care. Typical treatment involves 12 to 14 sessions focused on identifying triggers, modifying maladaptive cognitions, and building coping strategies. Almost two thirds of patients achieve full remission with treatment. About a quarter achieve partial remission. Combined improvement rates reach up to 90 percent at 12 months. Additional issues that neurologists, psychologists, and psychiatrists often face include safe tapering of antiseizure medications when epilepsy has been excluded, treatment of comorbid anxiety or depression, coordinating care between neurology and mental health professionals, and providing education for schools on event management. Schools often witness these events and call prehospital professionals who want to keep patients safe. Benzodiazepines are sometimes given, exposing patients to additional risk. This requires health system-level and outpatient collaboration. Overall, early diagnosis and treatment of PNES is critical. Connection to counseling within one month of diagnosis is the strongest predictor of remission. PNES duration longer than 12 months before treatment significantly reduces the likelihood of remission. Video-EEG confirmation alone does not predict positive outcomes. Not every patient needs admission to a video-EEG unit. Quality of communication and speed of treatment, especially CBT-based therapy, matter the most. Overall, the prognosis for most patients with PNES is actually quite favorable. There are sustained reductions in events along with improvements in mental health comorbidities. Quality of life and psychosocial functioning improve, and patients use healthcare services less frequently. So here are some take-home points about psychogenic non-epileptic seizures, or PNES. Pseudo-seizure and similar terms are outdated and misleading. Do not use them. PNES are real, involuntary, brain-based events. Diagnosis relies on positive clinical features, what the events look like and when they happen, not normal lab tests or CT scans. Early recognition and diagnosis, and rapid referral to cognitive behavioral therapy, change patients' lives. If you suspect PNES, get neurology and mental health professionals involved as soon as possible. Alright, that's all I've got for this episode. I hope you found it educational. Having seen these events many times over the years, I recognize how scary they can be for families, schools, and our prehospital colleagues. It's up to us to think in advance about how we're going to talk to patients and families and develop strategies to help children who are suffering from PNES events. If you've got feedback about this episode, send it my way. Likewise, like, rate, and review, as my teenagers would say, and share this episode with a colleague if you think it would be beneficial.

In this episode, we explain that the "something's just not right" feeling is often a sign of devitalization, even when labs look unclear. From our perspective, people stay stuck because they chase symptoms instead of restoring the body in the right order: nervous system first, then cellular energy, microbiome, liver/detox flow, and hormones last as a downstream result. Our takeaway: remove interference, build the layers in sequence, and let the body do what it's designed to do, restore. Resources Mentioned: Reclaim Vitality, AVAILABLE NOW ON AMAZON!

Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industryYour body isn't a mystery box—and “that's normal” is not a medical plan.In this episode, we sit down with Tierra Duncan, Air Force veteran, women's health educator, and author of The Birth Control Illusion, for a straight-talk conversation about what so many women were never taught: how our cycles actually work, what birth control really does, why endometriosis is often misunderstood, and what's happening during the hormonal shift of perimenopause.With clear language and zero fear-mongering, Tierra breaks down estrogen, progesterone, and ovulation—and shows how understanding them can turn confusing symptoms into actionable information. We trace her journey from the flight line to health advocacy, and explore how military culture's “mission first” mindset often trains women to ignore pain, fatigue, and mood changes as background noise.Tierra explains why the pill's “withdrawal bleed” isn't a true period, how synthetic hormones differ from bioidentical options, and what informed consent in women's healthcare should actually look like. We also dig into endometriosis as a full-body condition, the role of prostaglandins in pain, and why symptom severity doesn't always show up on scans.Rather than prescribing a one-size-fits-all solution, this conversation focuses on building a strong foundation—sleep quality, strength training, adequate protein and fiber, and stress boundaries—so you can decide if labs, hormone therapy, or other interventions belong in your plan.If hot flashes, brain fog, low libido, or cycle chaos have you wondering where to start, this episode gives you a practical checklist for smarter care: track your symptoms, clarify your goals, and walk into appointments with better questions and better language. You'll leave reminded that clarity is power—and that feeling vibrant at every stage of life is not too much to ask.Find Tierra's resources and book details in the show notes.

You're exhausted. Your hair is thinning. You can't lose weight no matter what you do. You're cold all the time, your brain feels foggy, and you just don't feel like yourself anymore. So you go to the doctor, convinced something is wrong with your thyroid—and they run a TSH test and tell you everything is "normal." But you're not fine. You know something is off. Here's the truth: your body might be screaming "hypothyroid" while your labs say "normal." And that's not because you're imagining things—it's because standard thyroid testing was designed to catch advanced disease. In this episode, we'll discuss what conventional thyroid testing misses. You'll discover why TSH alone is not an accurate indicator of thyroid health, how your body might be failing to convert T4 into usable T3, what reverse T3 reveals about chronic stress, and why your gut health and oral microbiome might be sabotaging your thyroid function. You'll learn: The 6 thyroid tests you should actually be requesting (beyond TSH) How stress, gut dysfunction, and nutrient deficiencies block thyroid hormone from working—even when levels look "normal" Why the gut-thyroid connection is one of the most overlooked factors in thyroid health The emerging role of short-chain fatty acids and the oral microbiome in thyroid function What "optimal" ranges really mean (versus standard reference ranges) If you've been told your thyroid is fine but you still feel terrible, this episode will validate your experience and give you a clear roadmap for what to test next.

I also show the difference between blood work and the DUTCH Test, why cortisol patterns matter more than a single lab value, and how estrogen, progesterone, stress hormones, and nutrient depletion can drive symptoms long before anything shows up as "abnormal." If you're tired of being told everything looks fine while your body says otherwise, this episode will help you understand where answers are often hiding and what to do next.

I'm breaking down the real lesson: stop letting politics hijack your peace and start playing the only game you can control—your life playbook.

I also give you my daily discipline that's been changing everything: the first two hours of my day are mine (no phone, no market, no noise)—because if you don't put pressure on life, life gon' put pressure on you.Trump emotional influence, politics and mental health, political polarization, how to stay calm during elections, stop being emotionally triggered, discipline routine, morning routine no phone, compounding good decisions, mindset for success, personal development, control what you can control, faith and focus, stress management.Join our Exclusive Patreon!!!
