Her journey into breast cancer care began with a personal tragedy. At the age of 16, Dr. Jenn's cousin, acclaimed singer-songwriter Linda Creed, died of metastatic breast cancer just weeks after Whitney Houston's recording of her iconic song, "The Greatest Love of All," topped the charts. This loss became a defining moment, inspiring Dr. Jenn to dedicate her life to transforming how we approach breast cancer treatment and prevention.Dr. Jenn became Philadelphia's first fellowship-trained breast surgeon and spent 17 years leading the field. However, her perspective changed significantly when she became a patient herself. Through this personal experience, Dr. Jenn saw how broken the conventional medical system can be. This led her to discover and embrace functional medicine, a revelation that sparked her journey towards a more holistic approach to breast cancer care.Connect with Dr. Jenn Simmons:https://www.realhealthmd.com/https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jennsimmonsAbout Dr. Taz:Dr. Tasneem Bhatia (Dr. Taz) is a triple board-certified integrative medicine physician,bestselling author, and founder of hol+ a multi-location integrative medicine practice.Learn more: https://doctortaz.com/aboutStay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/ - Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Book a Hol+ Consultation: https://holplus.co/locations/virtual/Follow Dr. Taz on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsProduced by https://ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek)

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got a couple of dynamic frontmen who've brought a ton of personality to rock and roll over the years: It's Pelle Almqvist and James Smith. Pelle Almqvist, aka Howlin' Pelle Almqvist, is the singer for the Swedish band the Hives, who make garage rock, punk rock, or simply rock and roll, depending on who you're talking to—that question comes up in this conversation. The Hives broke through back in the early 2000s with the monumental album Veni Vidi Vicious and the song “Hate to Say I Told You So,” and they've since amassed an incredible catalog alongside an earned reputation as one of the most exciting live bands you're ever going to see. The Hives went quiet for a while but came roaring back in 2023, and last year they released their seventh record called The Hives Forever Forever The Hives, a brilliant title if I've ever seen one. Check out the title track from that album right here. The other half of today's conversation, James Smith, is the singer/talker/kinda rapper at the helm of the British band Yard Act, whose first album—2022's The Overload—immediately announced them as a serious musical force. Smith's voice is the slick, confident center of their songs, and his unique way of sing-speaking feels like a gamble that paid off ridiculously well. The band has since released two more records, including the excellent new You're Gonna Need A Little Music, which deals at times with the idea of getting everything you want but not knowing what to do with it. It was produced by Justin Meldal-Johnson—he's the Justin mentioned in this chat—who seemed to help tame the beast in all the right ways. Check out “Empty Pledges” right here. This lively chat took place via Zoom, and I have to note right off the bat that Almqvist was dialing in from his sauna while wearing a Hives-branded robe—totally on brand in the best way. They talk about religion, typical days on tour, and quite a bit about how they've both gotten into painting—and how they're trying not to make it into work. Enjoy. 0:00 Intro 02:42 Start of conversation 02:43 On sharing an interest in painting and art 04:37 On recording new records in home studios, and how touring impacts recording 08:07 On if the “lightning in a bottle” approach to making music is real, trying new sounds, and why Ace of Base is similar to Bob Marley 10:41 On the music scenes in Sweden and Leeds 13:20 On folding bikes and land skis 15:08 On architecture, history, and visiting cathedrals and other landmarks on tour 16:09 On organized religion, capitalism, and if spirituality encourages unity 18:26 On growing up near Russia during the Cold War, nuclear war fears, punk music, and class awareness 20:21 On modern interpretations of punk music 23:04 On traveling on tour, seeing more cathedrals, why AI is like an Easter Island statue, and staying optimistic about the future 26:29 On upcoming tour dates, and future plans and priorities 29:35 On James' experiences showing his paintings, the pros and cons of selling passion projects, and learning new art skills 32:43 On Pelle's painting projects, and how painting is like songwriting 35:12 On being creative vs. slowing down during time off 36:53 On if slowing down musically is the same as getting complacent 38:19 On Pelle's sauna and swimming in the Baltic Sea 39:20 On input vs. output for creativity and culture Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Pelle Almqvist and James Smith for chatting.

Whether self-labeled or labeled by a professional, people with MH issues need to understand how they developed. Staying on medications for your entire life will alter you mind, body, and soul, yet it will not cure your issues! People must get to the root cause of why they developed mental health issues and then work on getting past them. That should be the goal, but unfortunately people settle for a lifetime of numbing via medication, drugs, alcohol, etc. Too many people use their labels as crutches.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including McDonald's and Burger King's new chicken tests, Wonder's potential IPO, and the proliferation of tiered value menus. They kick things off with product news from two of the biggest players in quick service: McDonald's and Burger King are both exploring new premium chicken products, with Burger King offering two new chicken sandwich LTOs and McDonald's testing hand-breaded chicken tenders and wings. Sam and Alicia explore what's driving this renewed focus on elevated chicken offerings, how these products fit into each brand's broader menu strategy, and whether premium items can coexist with the value-focused messaging that's dominating the industry right now. They then shift to the explosion of tiered value menus across the restaurant landscape, from brands like Wendy's, Taco Bell, and McDonald's. A Technomic representative believes the marketplace has become too oversaturated, making it harder for brands to break through the noise with a value message. Sam and Alicia discuss whether these promotions are actually driving incremental traffic or simply cannibalizing sales from existing customers, and what this means for brand differentiation in an increasingly crowded field. Next up, they dig into Kura Sushi's recent earnings report, which revealed negative traffic and sales trends. The conveyor belt sushi chain cited rising gas prices and tariff-related pressures as key factors impacting consumer behavior and operational costs. Sam and Alicia unpack how macroeconomic forces are creating challenges for restaurants like Kura — but also discuss the silver lining that Kura can look to as it grows across the country. Then they talk about Wonder, the multi-brand delivery concept backed by Marc Lore that is reportedly considering an IPO. Sam and Alicia discuss what makes Wonder's business model unique, whether the public markets are ready for another restaurant IPO after Jersey Mike's recent filing, and what this could signal about investor appetite for innovative restaurant concepts. They wrap up with a Quick Fire round covering the latest industry buzz and headlines you need to know, including Taco Bell's increased use of drive-thru AI, Chipotle's investment in six companies via its Cultivate Next fund, and the lack of women being hired for executive roles. Finally, we share an interview between managing editor Leigh Anne Zinsmeister and The Granola Bar cofounders Julie Mountain and Dana Noorily, recorded in person at the National Restaurant Association Show.

Embracing Change in Higher Education: Insights from Nate Tucker In the rapidly evolving landscape of technology, educational institutions often find themselves at a crossroads, faced with the challenge of adapting to new paradigms. In this blog post, we'll explore the insights shared by Nate Tucker, Vice President for Information Technology at Lee University, during his conversation with Dr. Rod Berger. This discussion delves into the intersection of technology and education, highlighting the importance of human connection, effective communication, and the need for adaptability in the face of change. The Impact of In-Person Experiences Nate Tucker reflects on his experience attending a talk by Bill Nye, the Science Guy, emphasizing how live interactions enhance the effectiveness of communication. Watching Nye engage with the audience reinforced the idea that communication transcends words; it encompasses body language, facial expressions, and the energy in the room. This experience serves as a reminder that the essence of communication is not just in the delivery but in how it resonates with the audience. Understanding this dynamic is crucial in the educational sector, where fostering a positive learning environment relies on effective communication. Educators and technologists alike must focus on creating experiences that are engaging and relatable, making tough subjects more accessible. Navigating the Overload of Information In an era characterized by an overwhelming influx of information, Tucker addresses the notion of a modern obsession with content. With technology advancing at an unprecedented pace, individuals often find themselves inundated with choices and opportunities, leading to anxiety and confusion. Tucker suggests that leaders in education must guide their communities through this noise. By building relationships and demonstrating the tangible benefits of technological changes, educators can alleviate fears and encourage acceptance of new tools and systems. This is particularly vital in a landscape where decisions about technology must be made swiftly, often without the luxury of extensive deliberation. Building Relationships to Foster Change One of the key themes in Tucker's approach is the importance of relationship-building. He notes that fostering connections within the institution can significantly ease the transition to new technologies. By prioritizing relationships, educators can create an environment where change is not only accepted but embraced. Tucker emphasizes the role of empathy in leadership, suggesting that understanding the concerns of faculty and staff is essential. When people see how a change will benefit them, they are more likely to support it. This perspective aligns with the idea that effective leadership is rooted in the ability to connect with others and convey a shared vision. The Puzzle of Technology in Education Tucker likens the process of integrating technology in education to solving a never-ending puzzle. Each piece represents a different aspect of technology, and as new tools emerge, the picture continuously evolves. Education leaders must remain agile, adapting their strategies to fit the changing landscape. The shift from traditional methods to agile approaches in project management reflects this need for adaptability. By embracing iterative processes, educators can respond to feedback and make necessary adjustments more rapidly, ultimately enhancing the educational experience. The Importance of Community Support Tucker highlights the value of community in navigating the challenges faced by educational institutions. He mentions various organizations and forums that provide a safe space for educators to share ideas, seek advice, and learn from one another's experiences. This collaborative approach fosters a culture of support and encourages innovation. In a world where competition is fierce, the higher education community can thrive by sharing best practices and insights. When institutions work together, they can collectively uplift the standards of education and ensure that all students receive the best possible experience. Key Takeaways - **Communication Matters**: Effective communication involves more than just words; it's about engaging with the audience on multiple levels. - **Build Relationships**: Fostering connections can ease the anxieties associated with technological changes and encourage acceptance. - **Adaptability Is Key**: The landscape of education is ever-evolving, and leaders must be prepared to pivot and adjust their strategies accordingly. - **Community Support**: Collaborating with other institutions can lead to shared success and innovation in the field of education. As technology continues to reshape the educational landscape, the insights shared by Nate Tucker remind us of the importance of human connection, effective communication, and adaptability. By focusing on building relationships and fostering a supportive community, educators can navigate the challenges of change and create a positive learning environment for all.

In a world where AI can churn out content at scale, have B2B marketing teams forgotten how to truly create? In this episode, Wolters Kluwer Health's Director of Marketing Content Experience, Karen Cooper, joins David Rowlands to unpack what happens when high-velocity marketing crushes creative space. She shares what she's seen across agencies, in-house teams, and multiple industries when goals keep rising, work keeps piling up, and leaders quietly expect AI to “solve it all.” Karen explains why AI should be treated as a research and efficiency partner—not the author of your brand—and how the real competitive edge still lies in human storytelling, judgement, and collaboration. From the hidden costs of burnt-out creative teams to practical ways leaders can design processes, governance, and culture that protect originality, this conversation is a blueprint for marketers who want to move fast without becoming generic.

Why does our modern political landscape feel so intensely divided, and why does it seem like the media environment is constantly dialed up to eleven?In this special crossover episode, David sits down with Michael Baranowski, host of The Politics Guys and fellow member of The Democracy Group podcast network. Moving past the usual surface-level punditry, they pull back the curtain on the "outrage industry" to diagnose the systemic, cognitive, and commercial forces driving us apart.David and Michael skip the usual warm-ups and dive straight into the structural incentives that prioritize clicks over nuance, the profound psychological misperceptions we hold about the "other side," and—most importantly—the role we play as consumers in feeding this ecosystem.Text me your feedback and leave your contact info if you'd like a reply (this is a one-way text).

Something feels off at work, and it’s not just you. We are experiencing unprecedented levels of cognitive demand in the modern workplace. People are exhausted, struggling to prioritize, struggling to focus, and struggling to make decisions. And yet we keep reaching for resilience training and wellness programs as the answer. In this episode, we get into what cognitive overload actually is and how to spot it. We talk about why individual solutions alone won’t fix a system problem, and what both individuals and leaders can actually do about it. We also get into how we got here: the addiction to constant connectivity, hybrid work blurring the boundaries between work and life, AI accelerating the rate of change, and workplaces that now reward responsiveness over effectiveness. And we close with an honest answer to a hard question: are we positive about where this is going?

We focus on a long-term listener named Diane, whose experience shows that healing can happen gradually through repeated listening, small practices, and persistence rather than through a quick fix.Diane describes a period in early 2020 when several major stressors happened at once, including COVID pneumonia, hospital care, airway problems, a new asthma diagnosis, a car accident, lockdown stress, pre-diabetes, and heavy exposure to news and other stressors. She says she eventually found the podcast while looking for help with anxiety and what she called a nervous breakdown.We discuss why she kept returning to the show and what made it feel supportive. Diane says the calm, reassuring tone helped her trust the guidance, and that she began with a few suggestions that worked before adding more. She describes the podcast as a safe haven and says she often listened to episodes more than once before fully understanding them.We also talk about the specific strategies she used. Diane says stopping TV news helped immediately, and that over time she learned to notice tension in her body and calm herself. She uses routines like walking, meditation, regular sleep times, reading, piano, crosswords, and short daily journaling. She also revisits episodes for affirmations, panic support, and ideas like Claire Weekes' facing, accepting, floating, and letting time pass.Diane says her understanding of anxiety changed as she saw recovery was possible. She explains that she now sees anxiety as her mind preparing her body for an emergency, even when there is no real emergency. She says the work takes patience and consistency, and that she has become more calm, honest, compassionate, and less fearful.#AnxietyRecovery #MentalHealth #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #PanicAttacks #NervousSystem #Mindfulness #HealingJourney #SelfCompassion #StressManagement #Breathwork #Affirmations #Resilience #MentalWellness #EmotionalHealing #ClaireWeekes #HolisticHealing #OvercomingAnxiety #DailyRoutine #Meditation #InnerPeace #SelfCare #PersonalGrowth #MentalHealthAwareness #CopingStrategies #StressRelief #EmotionalWellBeing #WellnessJourney #Calming #MindBodyConnection #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When I burned out back in 2019, I felt like I was duped. I did all the “right things” – went to college, worked very hard, climbed the ladder, got married, had kids. And then, after doing everything the way I thought I was supposed to do, I burned out anyway. During that period, I was disillusioned and felt like I had no foundation. I had to find a new foundation, and this podcast was part of it, so thank you again for being here.What I learned about in my conversation with guest, Meghan French Dunbar, is that I didn't do it wrong. Society feeds us the idea of short-term success being the name of the game. It is more important for us to climb the ladder than listen to our intuition. It's more important to look good on paper than to experience success deep in our souls. And guess what? That's WRONG. During the show, Meghan and I chatted about:How we have been pursuing the wrong success targets the whole time.What the pull is to short-term success vs. long-term value creation.Her book, This Isn't Working: How Working Women Can Overcome Stress, Guilt, and Overload to Find True Success.What soul success is and how it is different than traditional success.How we can begin pursuing more soul success in our lives and careers. Here is more about Meghan:For the last decade, Meghan has been kinda obsessed with how we can make business better for everyone. This passion has led her all over the place, from co-founding the first nationally distributed magazine about sustainable business, Conscious Company Magazine, to hosting events for hundreds of changemakers, building businesses, interviewing thousands of business leaders, consulting with major brands, and writing an entire book on the topic called This Isn't Working: How Working Women Can Overcome Stress, Guilt, and Overload to Find True Success.If you're wondering why Meghan is so passionate about this topic, it's because business is one of the largest forces on Earth—one that can be harnessed to create tremendous progress and benefit humanity or one that can destroy lives and harm most people involved in the system. The good news is that it can be so much better and helping people understand exactly how is what her work is all about. When Meghan is not doing all that, she is with her family in the foothills of Boulder—chasing her two kids, hiking with her husband, hosting dinners for friends, and remembering that the truest version of success is one that actually feels like living.If the Brave Women at Work Podcast has helped you personally or professionally, please share it with a friend, colleague, or family member.

We developed the ultimate AM wake-up hack (which we tell you about in the intro) before this great episode! A main science topic was a new paper on how the temperature in an athlete's training location influences race performance. It tells a story about heat training generally that everyone needs to pay attention to.And guess what? A new journal article makes yet another argument against higher carb approaches. David brings big rant energy and we talk about how the scope of conclusions from exercise science can sometimes be misinterpreted. Plus, there were so many fun discussions! Other topics: Megan's new documentary coming out on Thursday, what we're seeing with bicarb use, overload training weeks, some cool science on Omega-3 supplementation, and questions on carbs in cycling, the backwards treadmill, big races, and more!To paraphrase our muse Jesse McCartney: we don't want this episode to go to waste, we want you and your beautiful listens.We love you all!

If work feels harder than it should—more exhausting, more fragmented, more misaligned—it's probably not because people are failing. It's because the system is. Meghan French Dunbar, has spent her career studying organizations like an anthropologist, looking beneath policies, perks, and performance metrics to understand why modern work so often isn't working for the humans inside it.Meghan is a workplace strategist, speaker, entrepreneur, and the author of the bestselling book This Isn't Working, which explores how working women (and men) and the organizations they lead can move beyond stress, guilt, and overload toward a more sustainable definition of success. Her work has reached more than a million people worldwide.We dive into some of the juiciest insights from her book. We talk about why empathy isn't a “feminine” skill”- or a soft one - and how the same patriarchal systems that burn out women also do irreparable harm to men. We unpack the difference between sacrificial leadership and sustainable leadership, and why research shows that holistic leadership - where performance and well-being aren't at odds - is actually the most effective way to lead.Meghan also shares the most powerful things leaders can do to access healthy leadership traits like empathy - and how empathy enables more customizable workplaces that truly engage younger generations. This is a conversation about redesigning work, so it actually works for people and for business.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…How to run a thriving organization while also thriving yourself.Why it is not about feminine or masculine traits, but rather about human traits.What holistic leadership means at its core.How vulnerability and authenticity lend credibility to you as a leader. "Autonomy, having control and agency in your life, is one of our core intrinsic motivators, and when you strip it from people, it's one of the primary causes of chronic stress and burnout." — Meghan French Dunbar Episode References: The Empathy Edge: Michelle Feferman: How Leaders Create Psychological Safety When Employees Are AfraidAbout Meghan French Dunbar: Workplace Strategist, Speaker, Author, This Isn't WorkingMeghan French Dunbar is a “business anthropologist” who studies organizations to find solutions that improve work for everyone.

In this episode, Mary Sullivan, co-founder of Sweet but Fearless, talks with Meghan French Dunbar, founder of Conscious Company Magazine and author of This Isn't Working, for an honest conversation about burnout, identity, and defining success on your own terms. After founding and scaling a nationally recognized media company, and serving as CEO for years, Meghan found herself exhausted, disconnected, and questioning the very definition of success she had worked so hard to achieve. What followed was a period of deep reflection that transformed how she approaches leadership and personal fulfillment. Meghan explores how traditional leadership models have been shaped by masculine ideals and how many women have been conditioned to believe they must adopt these traits to succeed. Meghan shares insights on what she calls the "half-leadership trap", the tendency to value only one side of leadership while overlooking the strengths that qualities often viewed as feminine bring to the table. She discusses why the most effective leaders embrace both masculine and feminine traits, blending decisiveness and ambition with empathy, collaboration, and intuition to create a more balanced and authentic approach to leadership.

Have you ever noticed how hard it is to step away from your phone… even when your mind and body is asking for a break?The texts, notifications, social media scrolling, and constant pressure to respond to that email can leave you feeling wired, distracted, and disconnected from yourself. Your mind may say, “Just one more thing,” while your body is quietly tightening, bracing, or whispering that it needs space.And if you've been pushing through for years — caring for everyone else, managing work, family, caregiving, and the invisible weight of modern life — you are not broken. Your body may simply be responding to a world that rarely rewards you how to pause.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Mary Donohue, founder and CEO of the Digital Wellness Center, whose work blends neuroscience, behavior, and technology. After living with chronic leukemia, caregiving stress, and surviving a heart attack, Mary began looking more closely at digital wellness and how constant connection affects the brain, body, and our ability to pause.Together, we talk about digital overload, micro breaks, nervous system regulation, social media anxiety, and stress-related illness. Mary shares why even a small pause can help your body settle and give you more space before you respond.In this episode, you'll learn:Why midlife women may be especially vulnerable to chronic stress How women over 50 can begin noticing the subtle body cues they've learned to overrideWhat micro breaks can offer when your mind and body feel overstimulatedHow social media anxiety can quietly shape your mood, focus, and sense of calmHow a simple 3 minute micro break can help you regulate you emotional well-being.The connection between technology and mental health in our everyday choicesHow your nervous system staying in a low-grade activation (fight or flight response) can show up without you even knowing it. IWhy giving back, connecting with others, and creating more joy can help you feel more groundedHow technology can become part of the solution when it is designed with human well-being in mindThis conversation is a gentle reminder that the pace of your life may be asking more of your body than it was ever meant to hold.You don't have to wait until you're exhausted, anxious, or completely overwhelmed to give yourself a pause. Sometimes one small moment of space is enough to help you start hearing what your body and brain have been trying to tell you all along.With love and freedom, LaurieClick here to purchase my “Nervous System Regulation Starter Kit” it's $29.99Click here to purchase my book: Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting GoClick here to watch the Barbie clip referenced in this podcastFree ResourcesClick here to schedule a FREE inquiry call with me.Click here for my FREE “Beginner's Guide to Somatic Healing”Click here for my FREE Core Values ExerciseWebsiteConnect with Dr. Mary Donohue: Victoria on LinkedIn: Dr. Mary DonohueVictoria's email: drmaryedonahue@gmail.com RESOURCES MENTIONED:Digital Wellness Center: Founded by Dr. Mary Donohue, this science-backed platform helps people manage digital stress, take healthier microbreaks, and build more balanced technology habits.

In this episode, I sit down with Mark Sisson, Founder of Primal Kitchen & Peluva, to break down why running isn't the fat-loss solution most people think it is. We talk about the concept of metabolic flexibility, and why walking is one of the most underrated tools for longevity, brain function, and creativity.
