Oura Health, the Finnish wearables company that has sold more than 5 million health tracker rings, is betting on women's health with the launch of its first-ever proprietary large language model designed specifically for women. “We know historically that women have been underrepresented when it comes to a lot of [medical and pharmaceutical] research,” Tanvi Jayaraman, MD, clinical lead of health AI at Oura, told Glossy. “We want to change that narrative when it comes to women's health.” LLMs are the brains behind AI chatbots, including Oura's in-app Advisor chat where users can ask general wellness questions, specifics about their personal health data or in-depth medical questions. “Women have been searching for answers [about our health and bodies on the internet] for just as long as the research has been done,” she said. “The answers that [women are] looking for are really disparate and scattered. They're on a niche Reddit forum, or they're kind of word-of-mouth, so a lot of [what we learn online is] hypothesis-driven, data-gathering one-offs.” Starting last year, Dr. Jayaraman's team of board-certified clinicians began “training” Oura's new LLM with only the best data and studies available. This is juxtaposed against many other LLMs, which are trained on the internet at large, which can result in hearsay and causality connections being learned as fact, Dr. Jayaraman said. “[When we're able to] pick and choose the right training data, the right sources, the right guidelines for women's health, then you can start to push away some of that noise [from the internet],” she said. “Of course, we have a long way to go when it comes to the actual research, but you have to start somewhere.” Dr. Jayaraman represents a new type of physician who bridges medicine, artificial intelligence and product strategy. After medical school at Stanford, she worked on AI strategy projects at Bain & Company, working for global diagnostics and pharmaceutical companies, then on Apple's clinical team, where she worked on next-gen digital health tools. She joined Oura last year. Dr. Jayaraman joined the Glossy Beauty Podcast to discuss Oura's new women-focused LLM, the future of AI-powered wellness chatbots and more.
Los titulares de la industria del deporte, con Patricia López, de 2Playbook.El Real Madrid CF ha reducido ligeramente su negocio comercial pese a renovar al alza con Emirates hasta 2030-2031. El club ingresó 618 millones de euros en el primer semestre de 2025-2026, un 2% menos interanual, mientras el beneficio neto cayó de 29 millones a 5 millones por el mayor gasto en plantilla. En baloncesto, el Real Madrid Baloncesto triplicó pérdidas hasta más de 17 millones tras elevar un 49% el gasto en jugadores, en pleno debate sobre una posible liga europea impulsada por NBA y FIBA. En tecnología, Oura ha comprado Doublepoint para integrar control biométrico y reconocimiento de gestos en sus anillos inteligentes. Además, las franquicias de la National Women's Soccer League se revalorizaron un 77% en 2025, con Angel City FC liderando el crecimiento. Por último, el Consejo Superior de Deportes ha nombrado a Marina Porta nueva presidenta del Tribunal Administrativo del Deporte.
On this week's episode I discuss Natalie's week of "realities" which include people showing up to your house unannounced, Stevie Rose's baby shower, my new Oura ring purchase, and a crazy work week and what that brings. I then get into reality TV for the week getting into the Traitors finale and reunion, Love is Blind finale, Ladies of London and all the other current Bravo shows. Let me know your thoughts!YouTube: https://youtu.be/Q5XhOYH6F-8Intro Music www.bensound.com "Happy Rock"
Is it the downfall of ChatGPT? People believe they are being spied on. Have no fear, your entire phone is spying on you! Are we scared of AI or using it to the fullest potential? The white lotus effect? Are you envious of the beautiful locations? Maybe it is just the adrenaline rush of the murder mystery. Good news, keep an eye out- they are coming around! Anna's Oura ring slightly disappointed her when she realized it didn't save her life. Her ring spoke to her again. To let her know her true thoughts about Annas recent activity. However, She's not being very gentle anymore. Clinical psychologist, international trainer, and a leading expert on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dr. Diana Hill joins Anna and Raven today for workout motivation and the psychological barriers that come between you and the gym! Anna's not a crier- her mom and daughter both are. Her mom yelled at her for this. Made Anna wonder who is and isnt really a crier? Producer Justin, Sophia, and Raven all discuss if they are or are not and when the last time they cried was. Ravens wife, Alicia celebrated her birthday all weekend. Her one birthday wish was that Raven actually attempts to dance with her- two songs. He succeeded. 67 is out, mogging is in. Mogging is apparently looking better than everyone else. Outshining. The evolution of trending words- Middle schoolers are first to discover just about any word that will soon be trending. There is a new pope-mobile and it is a ford explorer. He even has a vanity plate. Where does the pope even drive? Vatican City? The LA marathon took place yesterday. A Kenyan woman led the entire race. Finisher medals for an unfinished marathon...? Is Anna Zap out of line? Where do we stand on this matter these days as parents? Anna would rather let her kids swear and teach them the right way to do so. Others disagree. What do you think about your kids swearing? They were at Edgar's sister's house, and their son threw a baseball in the home and damaged their TV screen. It wasn't a ton of damage, but it clipped the bottom and put a weird mark on the screen. Edgar and Marie offered to buy them a replacement TV, they agreed. Now, Edgar's been thinking about it, and texted his brother-in-law and asked if they could have the broken tv because it would be great for their basement living area, even if it is slightly busted. His brother-in-law said they're going to use it in their bedroom. He's upset and since they bought them the TV, they should be able to keep the old one or be reimbursed. Marie says that he needs to let it go, it was $700, and not worth a family argument. He says his brother-in-law is cheap and should never have accepted the offer in the first place, all the kids were roughhousing! What do you think? Tom has a chance to win $400! All he has to do is answer more pop culture questions than Raven in Can't Beat Raven!
This Sunday, we were privileged to welcome a guest speaker Pastor David M. from Grace Vineyard Church in New Zealand who challenged us to evaluate our spiritual fitness. While physical training is good, training for godliness is much better, promising benefits for both this life and the life to come.Is Jesus at Your Center?Using the lighthearted example of Pastor Chuck's "legendary" physical fitness and his special Oura ring, our speaker reminded us that true strength begins in the spirit. He challenged us to consider whether Jesus is the absolute center of our lives or merely an "annex" or "granny flat" we visit once a week. God doesn't want to be an attachment; He wants to redecorate and take over the whole house.The Spiritual GymTo move from being a "Sunday Christian" to a spiritually fit disciple, we must engage in six key "spiritual exercises: "Worship: Utilising our entire being to honour God.Prayer: Engaging in a two-way conversation where we listen for His voice.The Bible: Consuming the "spiritual food" that gives us energy.Fellowship: Realising that the Christian life is a team sport.Giving: Ensuring God—not money—is the treasure of our hearts.Mission: Avoiding "spiritual obesity" by serving within the church and the world.••
Episode 289: TechTime Radio: This week, we open with Microsoft's Project Helix, the ambitious “one box to rule them all” promising native PC gaming, Wi‑Fi 7 speeds, and a next‑gen low‑latency controller. With a rumored $1,000 price and a 2027 release window, we dig into whether true backward compatibility across Xbox generations finally makes a premium console worth the splurge. Or should we pass on the New X-box for the rumored Steam Machines? What new gaming machine will be the SNES, and what unit will end up being the Virtual Boy? Then Gwen Way takes over Gadgets & Gear with a packed lineup, starting with the Pen Pulse Smart Ring on Kickstarter—sleep, activity, metabolism, and glucose‑leaning insights with no subscription and a practical sizing kit backed by an on‑time delivery history. We pair that with a hard look at Apple's $599 MacBook Neo hitting Walmart and Amazon, asking whether it's a budget Mac breakthrough or a Chromebook in a fancy suit. Finally, we have a nation‑state iOS exploit framework now circulating in criminal hands. Nathan spotlights Lego's reactive Smart Brick, and closes the segment with a smooth Glenlivet 12 tasting to keep things classy.Full Episode Details:A single box that runs Halo and Half‑Life without hacks? When Microsoft unveiled Project Helix, we dug into what it really means to merge Xbox simplicity with full PC gaming. From native access to Steam, Epic, and GOG to Wi‑Fi 7, a new low‑latency controller, and whispers of Surface‑team handhelds and OEM “Xbox” devices, the pitch is bold. But can a $1,000 hybrid win over builders who already plug their PCs into the living room? We map the business case, the tech hurdles, and the one promise that could flip skeptics into buyers: honest, full‑fidelity backward compatibility across the entire Xbox library.The episode takes a sharp turn into AI safety with a lawsuit tied to Google Gemini, forcing a conversation most platforms sidestep: what happens when users form emotional bonds with chatbots? We talk guardrails, roleplay, and the hard truth that you can't program remorse. If companies market “AI companions,” what duty do they owe when simulation bleeds into support? Expect a candid look at crisis detection, liability, and the growing gap between automated empathy and human care.On the hardware front, Apple's budget‑leaning MacBook Neo shows up at Walmart and Amazon for $599, raising eyebrows about specs, placement, and brand identity. Is it a smart entry point for students and switchers, or a dressed‑up Chromebook in bright colors? Then our Gadgets & Gear feature spotlights the Pen Pulse smart ring—a subscription‑free wearable that tracks sleep, breathing, activity, and even glucose trends. With a real sizing kit, solid delivery history, and early pricing far below Oura, it's a compelling option for anyone tired of monthly fees. We round things out with a smooth pour of Glenlivet 12 and a quick look at Lego's sensor‑packed Smart Brick, asking where innovation ends and cash‑grab begins.If you're curious about the future of gaming platforms, the ethics of AI companionship, and the shifting value equation in laptops and wearables, you'll feel right at home.

Every once in a while, you meet an athlete whose presence doesn't match the roster listing. Someone listed at 5'11… but plays like she's 6'3. Someone who doesn't just score points — she controls possessions, shifts momentum, and changes the energy of a gym.That's Madi Hill.A Class of 2027 standout from Owasso, Oklahoma, Madi has already surpassed 1,000 career points and 500 rebounds — and she's still evolving. But what separates her isn't just production. It's leadership. It's versatility. It's edge.Madi has been around basketball her entire life, but the game truly became hers around age 12 when AAU competition changed everything. Traveling. Facing stronger opponents. Being challenged instead of comfortable. That exposure didn't intimidate her — it sharpened her. That's when she realized she didn't just like basketball. She loved it.On paper, “5'11 forward” might raise questions. On film, there are none.Madi rebounds like a true post presence — especially on the offensive glass. She embraces contact. Finishes through traffic. Competes on every possession. But she's not limiting herself to one identity. She understands the next level demands versatility. Her high school system has her playing more on the perimeter, developing ball handling, decision-making, and shooting consistency. She isn't waiting to adjust later. She's preparing now.One of the most defining traits of her game doesn't show up in a stat line — her voice.“I try to be the loudest on the floor because that's something nobody can take away from you.”That's leadership. She communicates. She encourages. She steadies tense moments. She brings energy without relying on trash talk. She leads through presence.Basketball has taught her communication, resilience, and a next-play mentality. Mistakes don't linger. Adversity doesn't define her. She resets and moves forward — a mindset that carries beyond sports.And she's not just a basketball athlete.Madi is also a standout volleyball player — a varsity MVP and all-district performer who picked up the sport in seventh grade and quickly made noise. Her explosiveness, timing, and competitiveness translate across sports. At the next level, she projects as a defensive specialist or libero — but no matter the court, the fire is the same.As recruiting begins to heat up, Madi knows exactly what she wants: culture and community. She values programs where teammates are present on visits, where locker room energy is real, and where relationships matter. Fit over flash. Culture over hype. She's open to leaving Oklahoma if the opportunity aligns — distance doesn't scare her. Growth excites her.Her foundation is strong. When asked about her superheroes, she didn't name a Marvel character — she named her parents. Ashley Thompson, Brandon Hill, and her stepparents Emily Hill and Matt Thompson. Her jersey number, 22, carries family legacy — worn by both her grandfather and father. That connection grounds her.Off the court, she values balance. She enjoys time with friends, many of whom are teammates. She tracks recovery with her Oura ring. Loves sushi from “In the Raw” in Tulsa. Creates her own pregame handshake routines. Her theme song? “I'll Wait For You” by Drake.When asked what's next, her answer was simple: play in college and trust God's plan.No theatrics. No noise. Just confidence.Madi Hill isn't just a stat line.She's a leader out of Owasso.A multi-sport competitor.A culture-first recruit.A forward evolving into a complete perimeter threat.And at 5'11, she's proving dominance isn't measured in inches.It's measured in impact.
In this bonus episode, we're back with Dr. Rachele Pojednic for one of our favorite games: Overrated vs. Underrated — wellness edition. Rachele gives brutally honest takes on cold plunges, wearables like Oura and Whoop, continuous glucose monitors, greens powders, zone 2 training, and IV drips. You'll hear what she thinks is genuinely useful, what's wildly overhyped, and what the science still doesn't know yet. (Yes, she straight-up says cold plunges are overrated and greens powders are a hard no.) If you love hot takes and you want to stop wasting money on wellness nonsense, you're going to love this one.Sign up for our newsletter here!For weekly episodes, come join the Foodie Fam!Check out our book!Chat with us on IG @foodweneedtotalk!Be friends with Juna on Instagram and Tiktok!

Rettelse: I programmet siger vi fejlagtigt, at Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor er sigtet. På nuværende tidspunkt er der ikke en officiel sigtelse mod ham. Men han er fortsat mistænkt i sagen. Anonyme kilder fortæller til amerikanske medier, at USA er klar til at angribe inde i Iran inden for få dage, men hvorfor skulle USA angribe netop nu? Den tidligere prins Andrew er højst usædvanligt blevet anholdt. Han er mistænkt for embedsmisbrug. Forbrugerrådet Tænk kritiserer nu markedsføringen af flere søvnmåler-gadgets, herunder Oura-ringen. Men hvorfor er det i det hele taget blevet så populært at holde øje med sin søvn? Vært: Amalie Schroll Munk. Medvirkende: Jacob Kaarsbo, sikkerhedspolitisk rådgiver, tidl. chefanalytiker, FE.

Achieving optimal health isn't about white-knuckling a restrictive diet or chasing the latest quick-fix trend. Benjamin Brown, founder of Body Systems, advocates for a personalized "Operating System" that integrates strength, cardiovascular health, and sustainable habits. This shift moves you away from short-term hacks and toward a lifelong trajectory of wellness. Rethinking the Purpose of Exercise One of the most pervasive myths is that exercise is primarily a tool for weight loss. Treating the gym as a penalty for what you ate often leads to burnout and a broken relationship with fitness. True transformation requires expanding your time horizon and moving away from an all-or-nothing mindset. The 5M Fat Loss Framework To change body composition, you must balance physical efforts with internal health. This framework focuses on Mindset, Meals, Movement, Muscle, and Metabolism to build a metabolic engine. Strength training is a non-negotiable part of this process, supporting metabolic health and long-term sustainability. Data Over Emotion Building a "PrimeFitOS" involves leveraging objective metrics like blood work and wearable data from devices like Oura or Whoop. These insights allow you to make informed decisions rather than emotional ones based on the scale. Success is often found in the malleable middle ground where consistency beats perfection. Scheduling Your Success Health is a logistical challenge that must be reflected in your daily schedule. If your health is a priority, your calendar should show consistent sleep and activity routines. By "bookending the day" with steady habits, you ensure the energy needed to show up as your best self. In this podcast you will discover... Why treating the gym as a punishment for food is a recipe for burnout. The 5M Fat Loss Framework: Mindset, Meals, Movement, Muscle, and Metabolism. How to use objective data and wearables to make informed health decisions. The importance of the "malleable middle" and ditching the dogma of perfection. Why your calendar is the ultimate reflection of your true health priorities. How to "bookend your day" to maintain peak energy and self-belief.

It’s Peak & Pit and we’ve got big feelings over small things. Kee’s riding the high of a genuinely sweet family moment - then free-falls into a pit sparked by something so small it shouldn’t have the power to ruin a morning… and yet. Kel, meanwhile, is navigating a routine shake-up that’s hit her right in the feelings, plus she’s in her Oura ring era like it’s going to personally fix her nervous system.

In this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast, Kerri Roberts — senior HR strategist, fractional CHRO, and podcast host — interviews Kelsey Thompson, entrepreneur and recovery advocate whose platform blends honest conversations about recovery with lifestyle, wellness, money, and ambition. Kelsey's core message is simple and hard-won: your beginning doesn't define your ending, but rebuilding requires intention, structure, and a willingness to confront your own patterns.Kerri and Kelsey explore the realities leaders rarely say out loud: not everyone deserves access to you while you're rebuilding, and your environment — inputs, relationships, routines — becomes either leadership infrastructure or silent sabotage. They unpack how discipline outlasts motivation, why small routines create stability in chaotic seasons, and how faith and gratitude can anchor the process without denying the hard parts.You'll also hear a real conversation about money, identity, and ambition — especially the difference between building a values-led life and chasing excess for validation. This episode is a reminder that sustainable growth isn't just a business strategy — it's a personal operating system.Key TakeawaysYour environment is leadership infrastructure. Who you allow close while rebuilding can accelerate transformation—or quietly delay it.Discipline is a strategy, not a personality trait. Morning and evening routines create structure that stabilizes decision-making under stress.Gratitude isn't denial — it's reframing with integrity. Learning to find meaning inside hardship becomes a repeatable resilience practice.Money reveals patterns. Spending can be a dopamine substitute; values-led wealth requires self-awareness and restraint.Healing doesn't require a single identity. Integrating joy (home, wellness, style) alongside recovery is often how wholeness is built.Guest Links / MentionsKelsey Thompson on TikTok: @livewelldresswellInstagram: real.livewelldresswellBooks referenced: The Comfort Crisis https://amzn.to/4qhNEClCan't Hurt Me (David Goggins) https://amzn.to/3Za64tUOura Ring Get 10% off the newest version of Oura ring with Kerri's link: https://ouraring.com/discount/789c29de22Rho Nutrition Get 15% off any product with Kerri's link: https://rhonutrition.com/kerriroberts If this episode resonated, subscribe to the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast, share it with a leader who's rebuilding quietly, and leave a review — it helps more founders and executives find conversations like this through YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and AI search.For fractional CHRO partnership, executive advisory, speaking, or leadership retreats, connect with Kerri here: saltandlightadvisors.com/contactSupport the show

Wearable data is everywhere. Oura, Garmin, Apple, Whoop... every device promising insight into your recovery, readiness, stress, and performance. But what do those numbers actually mean? Brooke, Amanda, and Kelly unpack heart rate variability, resting heart rate, respiratory rate, and sleep metrics. They explain what these metrics are measuring (and what they're not), why trends matter more than single-day scores, and how lifestyle factors like stress, hydration, nutrition, alcohol, and pregnancy can dramatically shift your data. The conversation dives into the nervous system, stress resilience, and why being "fully recovered" all the time isn't the goal for athletes. They also cover where wearables tend to mislead how over-reliance on recovery scores can create more anxiety than insight. Wearable data isn't the enemy and it also shouldn't run your life. When paired with honest biofeedback and good coaching, it can help you train smarter and recover better. When treated like gospel, it can derail your progress and confidence. If you've ever woken up feeling great only to be told you're "in the red," or canceled a hard session because your watch said so, this one's for you.

In this episode, Dr. Stephen Cabral joins Doug Larson and Dr. Mike Lane to break down how he went from a decade-long "idiopathic illness" in his teens to building one of the biggest health education platforms in the space, including more than 3,600 daily podcast episodes. Cabral shares the turning points in his own recovery: years of heavy antibiotic exposure, chronic stress, gut dysbiosis (candida, H. pylori, SIBO), and even mercury accumulation from frequent tuna intake. That personal case study becomes the foundation for how he now thinks about root-cause medicine versus symptom suppression, and why conventional care often waits until labs fall out of range before acting. The conversation dives into Cabral's framework for how chronic issues typically develop: nervous system stress leads to endocrine disruption, which then cascades into immune dysfunction, often amplified by gut-driven inflammation. He explains a clear process-of-elimination approach to gut health, why bile flow and motility have become increasingly important as the science has evolved, and how stress management is often the missing link. Cabral also breaks down why resonance breathing can be one of the fastest ways to shift physiology, how he uses wearables like Oura and HRV tools without overwhelming clients, and why the best plan is always the one someone will actually follow. Finally, the group zooms out to the future of health and longevity. They discuss biological age testing, emerging longevity research, and the realities of training and recovery as you get older. Cabral shares how his practice balances structured lab testing, repeatable protocols, and ongoing accountability so clients don't just get a plan, but learn how to sustain results long term.

In this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast, Kerri M. Roberts, senior HR strategist, fractional CHRO, and podcast host - dives into the leadership topic most executives think they're strong in but often struggle to sustain: boundaries. Kerri reframes boundaries as responsible leadership, not harshness - because in real organizations, unclear boundaries don't create warmth. They create confusion, favoritism risk, inconsistent authority, and a culture where pressure becomes a strategy.Drawing on thought leaders like Dr. Henry Cloud and Brené Brown, Kerri explains how leaders unintentionally “collapse” boundaries when they over-accommodate emotional reactions, undermine policies in person, or trade consistency for the identity of being perceived as a “good leader.” The result isn't kindness - it's instability. And in high-performing teams, stability is built through reliability, integrity, role clarity, and decision velocity - all outcomes of leadership infrastructure done right.Kerri also connects this to faith-informed stewardship: authority paired with limits, discerned availability, and integrity that keeps “yes” and “no” clean. Whether you're leading an executive team or parenting a teenager, this episode is a direct call to stop managing emotional fallout and start leading with clarity that protects people, performance, and long-term trust.Key takeawaysMost “HR problems” senior leaders name are actually clarity problems—boundaries, expectations, decision rights, and follow-through.Boundary collapse trains the organization that pressure works and teaches managers that escalation beats accountability.Vulnerability isn't boundarylessness—leaders destabilize teams when they confuse transparency with over-accommodation.Boundaries aren't control; they're containment—and containment is what creates safety, reliability, and sustainable growth.If you constantly circumvent policy, you're not being compassionate—you're creating an authority vacuum (and increasing favoritism and trust risk).ResourcesLeadership under pressure requires physical resilience, not just mental strength. RHO Nutrition supports leaders who want to optimize energy, focus, and long-term health without overcomplicating wellness.

Listening to the wisdom of the body and healing thyself is the ultimate flex. Not your peptide and supplement stack.In an era of every biohacker selling their supplements and peptide stack, every integrative and regular physician flogging their HRT and TRT, I'm not even remotely interested in their offerings.What's always fascinated me, is the idea that I can source this healing power from within.Taking a pill or a drug?Not a flex, in my world.It's the opposite—dependency and a cop-out.The sales pitch that you need a medication, supplement or machine in order to feel good, forever and ever—and you can't ever be without it?This is the ultimate snake oil.I'm inspired by the notion that we have the power to heal ourselves.Everyone can.THIS is the true flex in my world and in Anami Land: Connecting with our own bodies and highest wisdom as the oracle. As allies. Rather than an enemy and something to be subjugated.Today's episode is a replay of the Insta Live I did last week, with an additional introduction from me.

Most racers try to fix their problems by just riding more, swapping parts, or blaming “arm pump,” but never really look at their weakest links. In this episode of Seat Time, former factory pro and Troll Training coach Alex Martin breaks down why your real gains probably aren't on the track, and how to build the aerobic base, strength, and fueling habits that actually move the needle on race day.We dig into:Why the “ride more” mentality holds most riders back and how periodizing your year (strength, cardio, sprint, technique phases) unlocks real progress.How to honestly identify weaknesses you've been avoiding (starts, sprint speed, technique, fitness) and bake them into your weekly routine without killing the fun.Trusting the bike: understanding setup limits, making smart changes, and taking responsibility instead of blaming suspension, engines, or frames.Arm pump fixes that go beyond gimmicks: strength, aerobic fitness, technique, bike setup, and the mental side of pushing past your usual practice intensity.Alex's “big 5” strength moves for riders (deadlifts, single‑leg work, squats, and key upper‑body presses) and why dumbbells often beat machines.Using wearables (Whoop, Oura, Garmin) and blood work the right way—getting helpful data without letting HRV scores or recovery numbers wreck your head.Practical race‑day and training‑day nutrition: carbs per hour, sodium, training your gut, and simple rules so normal humans can fuel like serious racers.Why investing in quality food, sleep, and long‑term health is one of the most underrated performance upgrades in dirt biking.This is Mindset of the Racer – Episode 2, a 12‑episode 2026 series on the Seat Time podcast feed focused on the mental side of going faster, riding longer, and enjoying dirt bikes more.If this conversation resonates, share it with a riding buddy who takes racing (or themselves) a little too seriously, and make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss the next Mindset of the Racer episode.Sponsor Links:Koch Consulting Firm - Claim Consultants and a Licensed Public AdjusterTwo Sponsor Spots Left (Please reach out)Episode Links:The Ride More MentalityTroll TrainingSeat Time exists to keep you stoked on two wheels!

Send JD a text message and be heard!@jeremyschool20 how cool that you were skating on the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool. Didn't think you could do that. Thanks so much for sharing. #patrickkane passed Mike Modano for most points by an American #nhl player. @thomaswdonovan retool of @nyrangers continues. Swept in a home and home series vs @nyislanders if only they drafted a player like @matthew.schaefer48 Tommy. @cooper_flagg 49 points but @dallasmavs lost to @hornets 123-121 behind @kon2knueppel 34. Flagg set Mavs rookie single game & #nba record for player under 20 years old in the loss. @wemby first 150 games, more points than @duranthighlights more 3PM's than @stephencurry30 & blocks than Hakeem the dream. @djokernole beat @janniksin in 5 sets and gets @carlitosalcarazz next looking to win his 25th major and 11th @australianopen at 38 years young.

What your bedroom set and furniture says about you. Anna and Raven discuss how pricey bedroom furniture really is nowadays. Anna's Oura ring is telling her everything she needs to know about herself. Everything. Her Oura voice joins Anna & Raven on the show and basically flames her for her habits. They are currently not on speaking terms. The Superbowl commercials are dropping sneak peaks for what is to come during the day and Raven is not happy about this. The surprise is ruined. Raven is an advocate for waiting until the game. Heated Rivalry is soaring through the charts right now and everyone is tuned in . Except for Anna. She doesn't have a moment to lock herself in the closet to avoid her family watching too. Anna, Raven, Producer Justin and Producer Sophia discuss movies and shows they avoid with others. People left and right are swallowing airpods by accident. The answer is to let it pass. In about 2-3 days. What did you accidentally swallow one time? Anna's daughter Dakota spent way longer in the confession booth then Anna thought she would. Just airing out all her sins. She then handed out a penance to the producers sins. Was Ravens second car accident this month his fault? He can't seem to escape these terrible drivers! After this encounter though, he's sure it wasnt his fault this all went down. When was the last time you had a curfew? The patriot's curfew had Anna and Raven thinking about the last time they were given a curfew. Oh how the times have changed. Anna gives herself a curfew now. Dylan and Lexi recently started hanging out with one of his co-workers and his wife. They're a fun couple and it's been good to make new friends. Except for one problem, the guy is cheap when it comes to tipping. Whenever they go out to eat, they split the check and the co-worker only leaves 10% tip- even if the service is great. He's too embarrassed to say anything to his co-worker, but she thinks they can't hang out anymore. Either they ask for separate checks or make excuses why they can't go out. It's too embarrassing. He says asking for separate checks is embarrassing! What would you do? Juliana has a chance to win $600! All she has to do is answer more pop culture questions than Raven in Can't Beat Raven!
Over the last 48-72 hours, I completely fell down the rabbit hole with a new AI tool called Clawdbot (rebranded TODAY to Moltbot). Instead of my planned episode about what's on my mind in January 2026, I decided to share my raw, unfiltered experience setting up this AI assistant that runs 24/7 and integrates with all my tools. This isn't your typical AI chat interface—it's an always-on assistant I can text through Telegram that proactively handles research, automates workflows, and maintains institutional memory of all my content. I'll walk you through exactly how I discovered it, my security-first setup approach using a virtual private server, the learning curve (spoiler: it took me until 1:30 AM), and the specific ways I'm using it now. From automated guest research and fitness tracking to content ideation from my 300+ podcast transcripts, this tool is changing how I think about AI assistance. But I'm also wrestling with bigger questions about what this means for content creation, human creativity, and where we draw the line on AI-generated work. → Alex Finn video → Learn about Clawdbot → Setup video from Neil Stephenson → Setup video from VelvetShark Full transcript and show notes *** TIMESTAMPS (00:00) Discovery Through Alex Finn's Video (02:50) What Actually Is Clawdbot?

Feeling exhausted despite going to bed on time? Noticing unexplained weight changes, anxiety, or that classic "midlife fog"? For many women in midlife, broken sleep often hides in plain sight, and the real culprit may be how we breathe at night. This episode sheds light on the overlooked connection between airway health, sleep quality, and the issues so many women face at this stage. Renowned airway-focused dentist Dr. Shereen Lim joins host Natalie Tysdal for a grounded, eye-opening conversation on sleep and breathing. Dr. Lim's perspective is especially relevant for women 40 and up — she explains why snoring, interrupted sleep, and fatigue aren't just annoyances, but signals of deeper, developmental factors. With clear stories and practical advice, Dr. Lim helps make sense of sleep studies, airway development, and what happens when the tongue, jaw, and nose don't support restorative sleep. If you've ever wondered why you wake up tired, or why CPAP might not be your only option, you'll find answers here. You'll learn: • Why sleep-breathing problems often go undiagnosed in women, and what can be done • How jaw and palate development in childhood impacts sleep, health, and even hormones years later • The signs like grinding, fatigue, and morning headaches,your body is using to flag poor sleep • The pros and cons of mouth taping, dental appliances, and how to find the best solution for your needs • How to talk with your dentist, sleep physician, or orthodontist to create a personalized path to better sleep • Why breathing through your nose (not your mouth) plays a key role in energy and vitality in midlife Too many women spend years blaming stress or hormones without realizing that restless sleep and airway health are often part of the picture. This conversation offers clarity, validation, and real options — so you can advocate for restorative sleep and daily energy that support your whole self. Episode Sponsor: Blue Sky CBD Better sleep is a recurring theme in this conversation — and it's something I've been working on personally. I've been using Blue Sky CBD Sleep Gels as part of my nighttime routine, and they've been a helpful addition. These gels combine CBD and CBN, a cannabinoid often used specifically to support sleep, to help the body settle into rest. There's no THC, nothing intoxicating, and the formula is lab-tested for quality. I've noticed my sleep feels more settled — and even my Oura sleep numbers have been trending in the right direction.

It's the start of a new year, and that means resolutions and recommitments to personal health and wellness. Undoubtedly, there were thousands of wearable devices purchased as presents over the holidays and many more in the post-holiday sale madness. Supplement commercials and social media ads are going strong as we start this new year. But, are these things actually necessary for health? Today, we kick off our Winter Season of Creating a New Healthcare with a deep dive into the wellness industrial complex. Jess Greenwood, Producer of the podcast, joins Host, Dr. Zeev Neuwirth to dissect what we've heard from the experts interviewed on the show as well as our own personal experiences. We debate the role of wearables in behavior change, the influence of the wellness industrial complex, where supplements fit into a healthy diet, and what the companies that make these products really want and need from their users. If you've been a bit skeptical if that Oura ring can help you achieve max readiness or even if you're convinced those Magnesium supplements will be the game changer this year, this conversation is for you.

Ok, it's another peek into my brain. I'm sharing the things I want to follow me into the new year and things that I'm leaving in 2025. I thought it would be beneficial for you to hear my thoughts behind these decisions and get you thinking about how you want 2026 to look for you. Planning provides a lens of calm. Somehow when a plan is in place, even if it changes, it is not as jarring as when you have to react to change with "emergency energy." What will be joining me As I think about 2026 approaching, there are some significant changes happening in my life. Abby will have baby number two soon and the PhD is not consuming as much of my time. So, I am looking at the extra time. I want to be intentional with showing up for Abby, taking care of my body, and due to circumstances not yet resolved, looks like I will be doing a lot more housework. This next 120 days I'm viewing as my "grand(ma)turnity leave." I am excited for Planning Day, where I take the time to really look at my time and plug in my priorities of being a grandma and think about how I want to use all this time I am getting back. When it comes to my housework I plan to run the vacuum robot more frequently after getting some listener feedback and tips. And I will run the dishwasher daily which is more frequent than we currently do. I am looking at the time I used to give to the PhD and filling it with my new goals. I am keeping the Tovola that is in alignment with eating healthy. But will likely add in a little meal prepping to accommodate how I want to eat and Grayson's egg allergy eating regimen. So, on Thursdays, I'll be doing mid week laundry and some housekeeping. And on Saturdays you will find me at the gym with Grayson. You will find me with Grayson a lot in the next 120 days "sucking up all my time." And I wouldn't have it any other way. What will get left behind Sit down. I'm leaving Culver's in 2025!! Never did I think this day would come but I want to build a healthy body, I still have 46 years to live and I'm really looking at my food right now. Doggy Daycare is closing and the house keeper won't clean with Hunter home, so no housekeeper. I will be home longer in the mornings so no more coffee and breakfast at the office. And I'm ditching ithe Oura ring. That thing was frustrating me. I disagreed with it too much. And I want to wear my nice jewlery! I'm ditching my gardening shorts and Organize 365® v-necks for clothes for workout clothes that better match how I identify; as a person who works out. Late night bedtimes are going away too because I want to have plenty of energy for the Abby, Grayson, and working out. My Golden Window is Ending I have been spoiled getting to take two luxurious hours each Sunday morning to process my Sunday Basket® upstairs and with little Grayson in tow pretty soon, I will not be able to. I have my Sunday Basket® upstairs and another in my kitchen which is basically Abby's Sunday Basket®. I plan to break my normal processing time into two different 1 hour chunks. I think I'll read all the things while Grayson is bathing which will account for about 1 hour or a little less. And I'm auditioning other time blocks for the remaining hour I will need for thinking, planning, and billpay. I will solidify this likely in Planning Day. Now is the time to go into your 2026 Sunday Basket® and grab all those ideas you wrote down and bring them to Planning Day. Those are the ideas and intentions you wanted to consider for the new year. Yes, this community is planning 2026 already. This community does not think you are weird. When you plan now, you get to execute on Jan 1. But if you want till the dust settles in the new year, it'll be the 5th - the 9th before you start planning let alone executing.
