Hey Tinnitus Friends and Family, 120,000 people search for "tinnitus sound therapy" every month. And most of what they find is incomplete—or just wrong. I'm Tinnitus Coach Frieder. I'm ACT-trained, I've worked with over 700 people, and I'm the founder of My Tinnitus Club. Here's what I actually tell my clients about sound therapy—the truth you need to hear. In this video, I break down: The 3 types of sound therapy: 1. **Masking** – covering up tinnitus with external sound (white noise, fans, music) 2. **Sound enrichment** – background sound quieter than your tinnitus 3. **Notched sound therapy** – filtering out your tinnitus frequency to retrain your auditory system What sound therapy CAN do (short-term benefits): - Reduces contrast between silence and loud tinnitus - Provides temporary relief - Helps with sleep and difficult moments in early stages The 3 major limitations no one talks about: 1. It doesn't retrain your nervous system - Sound therapy distracts you, but doesn't teach your brain that tinnitus is safe - If you're using white noise 24/7, your nervous system is still in fight-or-flight - You're covering up the alarm bell—not turning it off 2. You can't use it everywhere - Business meetings, social situations, when battery dies - What happens when it stops? You're back to square one - You're stuck on a crutch instead of retraining your brain 3. It creates dependency - I've worked with people who panic when masking stops - The opposite of habituation - Teaches your brain you can ONLY be okay when you can't hear it Here's the truth: Sound therapy is a tool. It's not the solution. The solution is teaching your nervous system that tinnitus is safe to experience—**even in silence.** I can meditate with my tinnitus blaring. I can hear it over a four-lane street. But I have zero reaction to it. Why? Because my nervous system learned safety. What actually creates lasting tinnitus habituation (from 700+ cases): 1. Nervous system work Your brain learns through lived experience (not just understanding) that tinnitus is safe. 2. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) - Accept difficult thoughts and feelings - Defuse from catastrophic thinking - Live by your values despite tinnitus 3. Community and co-regulation Your nervous system learns safety from being around other humans who've been through this. That's not motivational talk—that's neuroscience. 4. Tools for your triggers Sleep work, anxiety regulation, spike management—personalized to YOUR nervous system. This is why My Tinnitus Club exists. It's not just an app. It's not just pre-recorded videos. It's a community where you work through ACT tools together, with: - Weekly live group coaching with me - People who understand what you're going through - Personalized support for your journey Sound therapy can be part of your toolkit—especially at the start. But the foundation of real habituation? Nervous system work, ACT, and community. Ready to start? Take the free habituation quiz: www.habituate.online It takes 2 minutes and will help you: - Identify where you are in your habituation journey - Understand what's keeping you stuck - Get personalized next steps After the quiz, you'll get access to our free 4-day guide on tinnitus habituation.

Osteosarcoma Webinar Series: Corey Weistuch, PhD, an Assistant Attending Physicist in the Service for Predictive Informatics within the Department of Medical Physics at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, will discuss his OutSmarting Osteosarcoma funded work on implementing personalized, adaptive therapies in osteosarcoma.Corey Weistuch, PhD, is an Assistant Attending Physicist in the Service for Predictive Informatics within the Department of Medical Physics at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. His work is focused on developing mathematical models to understand cancer development, progression, and metastasis by integrating multimodal data. Central to this approach is the recognition that tumors occupy a finite spectrum of functional states, each characterized by distinct treatment sensitivities and metastatic tendencies that evolve over time and in response to therapy. His research centers on two primary objectives: 1) developing innovative mathematical tools to identify cancer phenotype drivers, and 2) precision modeling of cancer evolution and site-specific metastatic dissemination. By leveraging his interdisciplinary training in mathematics and biology, he collaborates closely with experimental biologists and clinicians to ensure that his computational predictions are effectively translated into tangible clinical applications and trials.The Weistuch Lab's work aims to validate targeted drug candidates for osteosarcoma (OS) using patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models, leveraging a newly developed atlas of OS transcriptional states, called archetypes, to guide personalized, adaptive treatment strategies. By testing archetype-specific therapies in different disease phases, they establish a foundation for precision-based clinical trials, ultimately with the goal of improving outcomes for patients with advanced or refractory OS.

When it comes to being healthy, most of us know exactly what we should be doing. Move more, eat better, sleep earlier, stress less, and connect with people. And yet somehow, even with the best intentions, we fall off track.It's easy to label that inconsistency as laziness or lack of discipline. But what if the issue isn't effort? What if we're trying to build habits without the foundation that makes those habits sustainable?Because real change asks more of us than information. It asks us for endurance and self-control to keep going when motivation wanes.That kind of strength rarely comes from willpower alone.In my own life, and in the lives of so many people, I've seen a pattern repeat itself: when one pillar becomes stronger, everything else starts to feel more possible.When we strengthen our spirituality, discipline with food becomes easier, movement becomes an act of gratitude instead of punishment, and rest begins to feel safe. We stop white-knuckling our growth because we're no longer doing it alone.In this episode, I revisit the Six Pillars of health and wellness. I talk about how to identify where you are out of alignment and rebuild consistency in a practical, sustainable way. I also share how faith can anchor your habits, renew your resilience, and keep you motivated. Things You'll Learn In This Episode Relapse is not failureWe tend to treat slipping up as proof we can't change. But what if regression is actually built into the architecture of growth?Spiritual stability creates behavioral strengthWhen people trust God more deeply, discipline in food, movement, and rest often follows. Why does surrender increase self-control?Gratitude rewires the brainRepeatedly focusing on what is good strengthens neural pathways for resilience. What happens when you train attention instead of mood?About Your HostHosted by Dr. Deepa Grandon, MD, MBA, a triple board-certified physician with over 23 years of experience working as a Physician Consultant for influential organizations worldwide.

Full Video HERE We did the one thing you're never supposed to do: We tried to blast our entire contact list of 224,000 people. But instead of sending generic spam, we built a workflow in Clay to automate the deep research usually reserved for one-off emails. The goal? To find sales leaders whose *own reps* were already watching our content, and use that data to send 6,000+ hyper-personalized messages at scale. In this video, we break down the exact 5-step workflow we used to filter our list, the "Trojan Horse" data strategy we used to personalize every single message, and the honest results of the campaign (including the big mistake that cost us thousands of opens). ====== GET THE RESOURCES FROM THIS VIDEO - Steal the Clay Prospecting Table we used: https://app.clay.com/shared-workbook/share_0t9swvgU7tkm8MGhuKZ - The Exact ChatGPT Email Prompt: https://www.30mpc.com/blog/chatgpt-prompt-b2b-courses ====== THE TECH STACK - Data Enrichment: Clay - CRM Source: HubSpot - Email Writing: Anthropic (Claude) via Clay - Sequencing: Clay Sequencer - Data Sources: LinkedIn, Newsletter Lists ====== ABOUT THIS EXPERIMENT Most people think you have to choose between "mass blast" and "manual personalization." We wanted to prove you can do both. We took a list of 224,000 followers, threw them into a Clay table to enrich the data, and filtered for Sales VPs with 10+ reps. We then cross-referenced that with our CRM to see which specific reps on their teams were consuming 30MPC content. The result? An AI-written email that looked 100% human-written, referencing specific employees by name. Watch to see: 1. How we filtered 224,000 leads down to the top 1% highest intent buyers. 2. The specific AI prompt that references rep names and consumed content. 3. Why running this campaign in December was a massive failure.

This week, Gabby talks with Dr. Taz — traditionally trained physician, integrative medicine expert, and founder of Whole Plus — about what it really means to practice medicine in today's world.They begin with the new U.S. health guidelines and unpack why Dr. Taz considers them a “win” — particularly the shift toward whole foods, protein, healthy fats, fiber, and the callout of ultra-processed foods. But the conversation quickly goes deeper.They discuss why food pairing and portion size matter more than food labels, how blood sugar and inflammation are driving modern disease, and why simple carbohydrates may be at the center of the chronic illness epidemic.From there, the episode moves into something bigger: shared decision-making in medicine. Dr. Taz explains why individualized care — especially in pediatrics — requires nuance, context, and trust between families and physicians. She shares her own journey through personal health struggles, how that experience reshaped her medical philosophy, and why healing requires more than just prescriptions and protocols.Gabby and Dr. Taz also explore:Micro habits that lower cortisol and improve metabolic healthThe impact of blue light and screens on inflammationWhy 10-minute practices can shift your nervous systemThe difference between “data-driven” health and intuitive healthGender differences in how men and women approach wellnessThe importance of family systems in long-term healingWhy medicine must move from authority to partnershipAt its core, this conversation isn't about trends or controversy. It's about reconnecting science with spirit — and empowering families to think critically, ask better questions, and practice health in ways that actually work for their lives.Chapters00:00 – Why evidence-based holistic medicine matters05:00 – The new U.S. health guidelines: what changed10:00 – Simple carbs, insulin resistance, and inflammation15:00 – Full-fat foods, meat, and food pairing nuance22:00 – Why personalization beats rigid rules30:00 – Gender differences in health blind spots40:00 – Micro habits: 10-minute practices that shift cortisol50:00 – Personalized medicine and micro-dosing prescriptions58:00 – Pediatric care, shared decision-making, and gut health1:08:00 – Trust in medicine and rebuilding relationships1:18:00 – Medicine as a calling, not a business1:24:00 – What keeps Dr. Taz groundedKey Takeaways• Pairing and portions matter more than labels.• Inflammation and blood sugar instability drive most chronic disease.• Micro habits can regulate cortisol without overwhelming change.• Health is contextual — environment, stress, and family systems all matter.• Personalized medicine isn't alternative — it's responsible.• Shared decision-making builds trust between doctors and families.• Nervous system regulation may be the foundation of long-term healing.ConnectDr. TazInstagram: @drtazmdWhole Plus: https://holplus.coGabby ReeceInstagram: @gabbyreeceYouTube: The Gabby Reece ShowProduced by Dear Media.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Hidden Investment Risks Pre-Retirees and Retirees Don’t See Coming: Kentucky Retirement Planning Insights Are you approaching retirement and concerned about protecting your life savings from market volatility? In this comprehensive episode of the Tom Dupree Show, Kentucky retirement planning advisors Tom Dupree and Mike Johnson explore the multidimensional nature of investment risk and why personalized investment management is essential for pre-retirees aged 50-65. Unlike mass-market approaches from large firms, Dupree Financial Group provides direct access to portfolio managers who understand your specific retirement goals and risk tolerance. This evergreen financial education episode delivers timeless wisdom on risk assessment, portfolio protection strategies, and why understanding what you own is critical before retirement. Whether you’re working with a local financial advisor in Kentucky or managing investments on your own, these insights will help you make more informed decisions about your retirement security. Key Takeaways: Investment Risk Management for Pre-Retirees Risk is multidimensional: Investment risk extends beyond simple volatility—it includes sequence of returns risk, concentration risk, and the risk of falling short of your retirement goals The Capital Asset Pricing Model misconception: More risk doesn’t automatically mean more return; it means a wider range of potential outcomes, both positive and negative The danger of false security: Long periods of strong returns can create complacency, causing investors to unknowingly take on excessive risk right before retirement Personalized portfolio analysis matters: Your investment strategy must align with your specific retirement timeline, income needs, and risk capacity—not just market averages Understanding beats panic: Clients who truly understand their portfolio holdings don’t panic during market downturns because they know their strategy is designed for their goals Active risk identification: Professional Kentucky retirement planning involves continuously identifying and monitoring specific risks to each holding, not just following the crowd Howard Marks on Investment Risk: Wisdom from a Market Legend The episode draws heavily from Howard Marks’ influential 2006 memo on risk, which Tom and Mike have studied extensively. Marks, co-founder of Oaktree Capital Management, challenges conventional thinking about risk and return relationships. “If more risk always meant more return, it would cease being risky. The risk would be riskless,” explains Mike Johnson, highlighting the fundamental misunderstanding many investors have about the risk-return relationship. The discussion emphasizes that bearing risk unknowingly represents one of the biggest mistakes pre-retirees can make. This is particularly relevant for those who have experienced strong market performance for years without understanding the volatility embedded in their portfolios. The Real-World Cost of Ignoring Investment Risk Tom Dupree shares a cautionary tale that every pre-retiree should hear: “There was a man that came to me years ago who had been at UK for a number of years. He had invested in Fidelity and TIAA-CREF, good funds, great returns. He had something like 1,000,006 and he had averaged 13 and a quarter percent return per year for like 23 years. He extrapolated that he could take 10% a year, which was $160,000, live on it and be okay because it was gonna keep doing that. The sequence of returns turned around and bit him good.” This example perfectly illustrates sequence of returns risk—a critical concept for anyone approaching retirement. Even with excellent average returns, the timing of market downturns relative to when you need to withdraw funds can devastate a retirement plan. This is why personalized investment management from a local financial advisor who understands your specific timeline is so valuable. Why Volatility Isn’t the Only Risk Pre-Retirees Face The episode challenges the traditional definition of investment risk as merely volatility. For pre-retirees and retirees specifically, Mike Johnson explains: “The base case that we’re trying to solve here? We’re speaking specifically to near retirees and retirees. Volatility is gonna be your friend or your foe the day you need to take your money out. That’s gonna be your definition of risk—what has the volatility done to my money the day I need it.” Additional Risk Dimensions for Kentucky Retirement Planning Falling short of goals: The risk that your portfolio won’t produce sufficient income for your desired retirement lifestyle Concentration risk: Over-exposure to single stocks or sectors, especially common with company stock or recent tech winners Unconventionality risk: The professional risk advisors take when thinking independently rather than following the crowd—but this can benefit clients long-term Underperformance risk: Short-term underperformance relative to indices, which requires conviction in your strategy and understanding your goals Hidden risk exposure: Unknown risks embedded in portfolios, particularly index funds that provide no true diversification strategy The False Sense of Security: Why Long Bull Markets Are Dangerous One of the most powerful concepts discussed is how prolonged positive market performance can numb investors to risk—exactly when they should be most vigilant. Mike Johnson references Nassim Taleb’s “Fooled by Randomness” to illustrate this danger: “Reality’s far more vicious than Russian roulette. First, it delivers the fatal bullet rather infrequently, like a revolver that would have hundreds or even thousands of rounds instead of six. After a few dozen tries, one forgets about the existence of a bullet under a numbing false sense of security. One is thus capable of unwittingly playing Russian roulette and calling it by something alternative: low risk.” This perfectly describes the situation many pre-retirees face today after years of strong market performance. The analogy to driving at 90 mph—where you stop feeling the speed—resonates powerfully. You’re taking significant risk, but you’ve become accustomed to it and no longer perceive the danger. Direct Access to Portfolio Managers: The Dupree Financial Difference Unlike large firms where you’re assigned an investment counselor who may change frequently, Dupree Financial Group provides direct access to portfolio managers Tom Dupree and Mike Johnson. This relationship-focused approach enables: Deep understanding of your specific retirement timeline and goals Customized portfolio construction based on your unique risk capacity Ongoing education about what you own and why you own it Proactive risk identification specific to your holdings The ability to think unconventionally when it serves your interests “When our clients understand what’s in their portfolio and why, they don’t call us panicking when the market drops,” Tom Dupree emphasizes, highlighting the value of education and transparency in financial relationships. Why Index Funds Aren’t a Complete Investment Strategy The episode delivers a sobering message about the limitations of index fund investing for retirees: “If you don’t like risk and you think that you’re not taking any risk by investing in the S&P 500, sweetie pie, you need to get in the money market fund and just hope you got enough money to ride through it because you are taking risk that you don’t know about. And that is a problem because you’re gonna find it out in a very uncomfortable way at some point.” This doesn’t mean index funds have no place in portfolios, but rather that they shouldn’t be confused with a comprehensive retirement income strategy. Personalized portfolio analysis considers: Your specific income needs in retirement Time horizon until you need to access funds Concentration risk in popular stocks or sectors The difference between the accumulation and distribution phases Tax efficiency of different investment approaches Building a Foundation: From Stocks to Portfolio For younger investors just starting out, Mike Johnson offers this perspective: “If somebody’s in their late twenties, early thirties and they have a few stocks here and there, that’s great. You’re ahead of the curve from a lot of people, but that is not a portfolio. What you want to do is lay a foundation that’s more sturdy, more solid than just having a few stocks here and there.” This guidance is equally relevant for pre-retirees who may have accumulated individual positions over time without a cohesive strategy. Kentucky retirement planning requires transitioning from an accumulation mindset to a distribution strategy—and that requires professional portfolio architecture. The Retirement Risk Equation: It’s About Income, Not Just Account Balance One of the most important insights for pre-retirees: “Remember, it’s not just the accumulation, it’s not the dollar amount, it’s what it’s gonna produce for you and how long can it produce that to sustain you. Retirement has the normal set of rules plus other variables that you have to take into consideration.” This shift in perspective—from portfolio value to sustainable income—is where personalized investment management becomes critical. Every individual’s situation differs slightly, and those differences matter enormously in retirement planning. Faith, Risk, and Investment Philosophy Tom Dupree introduces an often-overlooked dimension of investment risk: the role of faith. Not just faith in markets or historical returns, but a deeper consideration of existential risk and what you ultimately trust. “Underpinning any investment scheme is faith. At the base of everything related to risk is faith. You cannot get away from it. One of the things about the God factor is that it takes certain elements of risk that you’re willing to take on for yourself and transfers them to a higher power.” While this dimension is personal and not emphasized in typical financial planning, it reflects Dupree Financial Group’s holistic approach to understanding clients as people—not just portfolios. Frequently Asked Questions About Investment Risk and Retirement Planning What is the biggest investment risk for pre-retirees? The biggest risk for pre-retirees is sequence-of-returns risk—experiencing market downturns just as you begin withdrawing from your portfolio. Even with strong average returns over time, poor returns in the years immediately before and after retirement can devastate your retirement security. This is why personalized retirement planning in Kentucky focuses on more than just average returns. How is investment risk different for retirees versus younger investors? For retirees, risk is primarily defined by volatility’s impact on withdrawals. When you need to take money out during a market downturn, you crystallize losses and reduce your portfolio’s recovery potential. Younger investors have time to recover from volatility. As Tom Dupree explains, “Volatility is gonna be your friend or your foe the day you need to take your money out.” Are index funds safe for retirement portfolios? Index funds are not inherently “safe” for retirement—they carry significant volatility and concentration risks (especially in large-cap tech stocks right now). While they can be part of a retirement strategy, they should not be confused with a comprehensive income plan. Local financial advisors can help design strategies that balance growth needs with income stability. How much can I safely withdraw from my retirement portfolio annually? There’s no universal answer—withdrawal rates depend on your portfolio composition, risk tolerance, retirement timeline, and income needs. The gentleman in Tom’s example assumed 10% annual withdrawals based on historical 13.25% returns, which proved disastrous. Personalized portfolio analysis determines sustainable withdrawal rates specific to your situation. Why should I work with a local Kentucky financial advisor instead of a large national firm? Local advisors like Dupree Financial Group provide direct access to portfolio managers who personally manage your investments, rather than being assigned to a counselor who may change. You receive personalized service, education about your holdings, and strategies tailored to your specific goals—not mass-market approaches. Tom emphasizes: “When our clients understand what’s in their portfolio and why, they don’t call us panicking when the market drops.” What does it mean to “know what you own” in my portfolio? Knowing what you own means understanding not just the names of your holdings, but the specific risks each position carries, how they work together, and why each was selected for your situation. It means knowing what could go wrong with each investment and having conviction in your overall strategy during market volatility. How often should I review my retirement portfolio risk? Pre-retirees should review portfolio risk at least annually, and more frequently as retirement approaches. Risk tolerance, time horizon, and income needs change as you near retirement. Kentucky retirement planning professionals continuously monitor holdings for emerging risks and rebalance as needed. What is concentration risk, and why does it matter? Concentration risk occurs when your portfolio has too much exposure to a single stock, sector, or asset class. Many investors have unknowingly accumulated concentration in large technology stocks through both index funds and individual holdings. If that sector declines, your entire portfolio suffers disproportionately. Diversification addresses concentration risk. How do I know if I’m taking too much risk before retirement? Signs you may have excessive risk include: heavy concentration in stocks after years of strong returns, high portfolio volatility relative to your withdrawal timeline, lack of income-producing assets, or simply not understanding what you own.

Episode 359: Midlife Muscle, Mindset & The M-Factor with Alicia Erickson This week on You Are Not Broken, I'm joined by the strong, grounded, and refreshingly honest Alicia Erickson for a conversation about midlife reinvention — from hormones to heavy lifting. We talk about the real-life impact of perimenopause (and why projects like The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause matter), Alicia's decision to get sober at 45, and what happens when women stop shrinking and start building — muscle, boundaries, and belief in themselves. Alicia shares her journey into strength training, progressive overload, and even stepping on a bikini competition stage — not for validation, but for growth. We break down body recomposition (yes, you can build muscle and lose fat at the same time), the critical role of sleep, and how hormone replacement therapy can dramatically shift quality of life in midlife. This is a conversation about doing hard things on purpose. About eating enough. About lifting heavy. About community. About deciding your second half will be stronger than your first. You are not broken. You might just need a barbell. Why perimenopause feels chaotic — and what's actually happening hormonally Alicia's sobriety journey and the connection between alcohol, mental health, and midlife Why strength training is non-negotiable for women over 40 Progressive overload explained simply Sleep as the foundation for body composition Hormone replacement therapy and quality of life Body recomposition: burning fat while building muscle Eating more (not less) to support muscle growth The mindset shift from “smaller” to “stronger” The power of community and doing hard things together If this episode resonates, share it with a woman in your life who needs permission to take up space — in the gym, in her body, and in her life. Because midlife isn't the beginning of decline. It's the beginning of power. https://www.instagram.com/aliciae/ Listen to my Tedx Talk: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Why we need adult sex ed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take my ⁠⁠Adult Sex Ed Master Class:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Interested in my sexual health and hormone clinic? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Waitlist is open⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Thanks to our sponsor ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Midi Women's Health⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

“Personalization” has become one of the most overused words in wealth management and one of the hardest promises to actually deliver. Clients want portfolios that reflect their goals, values, tax realities, and life events. Firms want scale, efficiency, and fewer operational landmines. Too often, those two goals collide. In this episode of The WealthStack Podcast, host Shannon Rosic sits down with Joshua Allen, CEO of TCP Asset Management, to unpack what real portfolio personalization looks like inside a fast-growing RIA and why most firms underestimate the operational cost of getting it wrong. Josh shares how TCP moved beyond model-only workflows, where automation actually helps (and where it doesn't), and why saying no to most technology is critical to scaling personalization without creating an ops headache. Key takeaways: How hiring a director of advisory services strengthened tech integration Why deeper use of existing tech beats adding more tools to the stack How personalized portfolios are driving referrals across generations Why most “personalized portfolios” still feel identical to clients What's real vs hype when it comes to AI in portfolio management Resources: Listen to WealthStack on Wealth Management Subscribe and listen to WealthStack on Apple Podcasts Subscribe and listen to WealthStack on Spotify Connect with Shannon Rosic: Shannon Rosic WealthStack website Wealth Management Connect with Joshua Allen: LinkedIn: TCP Asset Management Website: TCP Asset Management About Our Guest: As a founding Partner and  Chief Executive Officer of TCP Asset Management, Josh Allen is charged with leading a team of wealth advisors in practice management, business development, and innovative planning solutions.

Struggling with weight gain, hormone imbalances, and constipation? These aren't separate issues—they're all connected, and they all start in your gut. In this episode, I'm breaking down the relationship between gut health, hormones, and weight loss that most doctors won't tell you about.You'll learn why constipation causes estrogen to recirculate in your body, how backed-up toxins slow your metabolism, the gut-thyroid connection, and why "eat more fiber" actually makes things worse when you have gut dysbiosis.If you're ready to stop micromanaging your hormones and start addressing the root cause, this episode is for you.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy adding HRT on top of poor gut health is like pouring water into an overflowing bathtubWhy backed-up toxins slow your metabolism and make weight loss nearly impossibleWhat constipation actually is (hint: it's not just going less than once every 3 days)Why adding more fiber makes bloating and constipation worse if you have dysbiosisHow healing your gut naturally balances hormones and supports weight loss—without dietingTracy's story: how she stopped HRT, healed her gut, and lost two pant sizes in 12 weeksKey Takeaways[04:37] Tracy's StoryMy client Tracy came to me frustrated after starting HRT (testosterone pellet) and feeling worse—not sleeping, bloated, gaining weight, and reacting to all foods.

If you're doing more cardio than ever and your body hasn't changed — or it's actually gotten worse — this episode is for you. Cardio has plenty of benefits, but when it's treated as the primary fat loss strategy, it often backfires. In this episode, I break down: Why more exercise doesn't automatically lead to fat loss The two biggest mistakes people make when they rely on cardio How compensation (both with food and movement) keeps people stuck I also walk through the simple framework I used to lose 60 pounds and keep it off for over a decade — and the same approach I use with my clients to achieve sustainable fat loss without endless workouts (and in many cases, without formal exercise at all). Cardio can be a useful tool — but it's not an effective stand-alone fat loss strategy. This episode explains what to prioritize instead. -- Personalized 1-on-1 Coaching Apply Here Connect with me Instagram  YouTube TikTok Facebook

Breast cancer screening fails most often where access is constrained: limited appointments, geographic gaps, dense breast tissue, and reliance on self-exams that depend entirely on human touch. Awareness alone doesn't close those gaps.In this episode, Dr. Karny Ilan, co-founder and CEO of Feminai, shares how physician-led product design, multidisciplinary collaboration, and rigorous clinical trials shaped a new model for breast screening access. The conversation explores a shift in how breast health is managed—from episodic screening to continuous, individualized monitoring. Rather than relying on infrequent appointments alone, it examines tools designed to track changes over time, at home, while remaining connected to clinical decision-making. Timestamps(00:11) Breast cancer risk shaped by genetics and lived exposure(08:37) Limits of traditional self-breast exams(09:09) Personal experience shaping breast health urgency(10:15) How at-home breast scanning detects change over time(12:42) Designing screening tools for dense breast tissue(17:03) Addressing breast size, shape, and post-surgical variation(18:31) Clinical trials revealing real-world usability gaps(20:13) Why ease of use affects screening reliability(29:29) Access gaps amplified by pandemic-era screening delays(38:09) Broad inclusion across age, risk, and body types Guest BioDr. Karny Ilan — Co-Founder and CEO, FeminaiDr. Karny Ilan is a general surgery resident at Sheba Medical Center and the co-founder and CEO of Feminai, a breast health company developing an AI-enabled disposable wearable patch and app for at-home breast exams.

This week on You Are Not Broken, I sit down with breast oncologist and historian Dr. Elizabeth Comen to talk about her powerful book All in Her Head and the long, complicated history of how women's health has been misunderstood, minimized, and medicalized. If you've ever been told your symptoms are anxiety… stress… hormones… or just part of being a woman — this episode is for you. We explore the historical roots of dismissal in women's healthcare and how those patterns still show up today, especially in cancer care. Dr. Comen walks us through how breast cancer treatment has evolved, what we've gotten right, what we've gotten wrong, and why quality of life must be part of the conversation — not an afterthought. We also talk about: Why women's pain has historically been labeled “hysteria” How medical bias still affects diagnosis and treatment The real tension between longevity and quality of life Hormonal therapies in breast cancer — and how nuance gets lost Why advocacy matters more than ever The double-edged sword of social media and AI in health information How understanding medical history helps us build better medicine today This episode isn't about blaming the past. It's about understanding it — so we stop repeating it. Because when women are dismissed, care suffers. And when women are informed, everything changes. If you care about evidence-based medicine, health equity, and empowering women with real information — this is a must-listen.

A former Adjunct Instructor of AI at Louisiana State University, he's consistently rated as the speaker who “finally makes AI make sense” and gives audiences tools they can put to work immediately.In this episode, Jennie and John Munsell discuss:Why most businesses overestimate their current level of AI masteryHow AI can remove administrative work and free salespeople to focus on peopleUsing AI to analyze conversations, uncover hidden needs, and improve follow-upHow personalized, AI-assisted proposals dramatically increase conversion ratesKey Takeaways:AI isn't just a faster copywriter; it's a capacity creator that gives salespeople back time to build real relationships.The most powerful AI workflows start with understanding pain, frustration, and desire—before ever pitching a solution.Personalized proposals perform better because they reflect how buyers think, decide, and communicate, not just what they need.When sales conversations are guided by preparation and insight, prospects feel seen, heard, and understood.The future of sales belongs to those who use AI to solve problems, not push products."AI creates capacity, and if you know how to use AI, then you have this excess capacity that is then used to be in front of people, because you're delegating the paperwork to AI." —  John MunsellConnect with John Munsell:Website: https://www.bizzuka.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jwmunsell  CONNECT WITH JENNIE:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/badassdirectsalesmasteryInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/badassdirectsalesmastery/Website: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/Show: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/blog/YouTube: COMING SOON!LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/levelupcoachllc/Email: jennie@badassdirectsalesmastery.com  Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions. You're the expert. Your podcast will prove it. 

Hi everyone, I'm Dr. Liza Leal, your host today for the Meridian Medical Dental Healthcare Podcast, powered by Meridian Health Institute — and I'm also known as your Everyday Health Hacker.Today we're talking about what's really happening to your collagen, muscle, and hormones when you're on GLP-1 medications — and more importantly, what you can do to stay looking healthy, strong, and vibrant while you lose weight. A lot of people using GLP medications experience rapid fat loss. While that's wonderful for metabolic health, many people start noticing changes in their skin. Their face can look more hollow or sallow, skin may feel thinner or less elastic, and they may notice sagging in areas like the jawline, neck, arms, or abdomen. So let's talk about how to prevent that.

SummaryIn this episode, Autumn and Noah explore the intersection of AI and mathematics, discussing why AI struggles with math, the differences between calculus and algebra, and the historical contributions of women in mathematics. They delve into the concept of infinity, the significance of pi, and the implications of dynamic pricing in today's economy. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding mathematical tools and the ethical considerations surrounding personalized pricing.TakeawaysAI is not monolithic; it has varying capabilities.The difference between calculus and algebra lies in their focus on relationships and change. i was a pioneering woman in calculus.Infinity is a concept that exists in mathematics but not necessarily in the physical world.Pi is fundamental in understanding circular motion and symmetry.Dynamic pricing is a modern phenomenon influenced by technology and data.Choosing the right mathematical tool is crucial for problem-solving.Personalized pricing raises ethical questions about fairness and transparency.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Overview00:22 AI and Mathematics: The Dual Nature03:25 Understanding Calculus vs. Algebra07:40 Historical Perspectives: Women in Mathematics13:11 The Concept of Infinity in Mathematics16:55 The Origins of Pi21:33 Dynamic Pricing and Its Implications00:00 Introduction and Overview00:22 AI and Mathematics: The Dual Nature03:25 Understanding Calculus vs. Algebra07:40 Historical Perspectives: Women in Mathematics13:11 The Concept of Infinity in Mathematics16:55 The Origins of Pi21:33 Dynamic Pricing and Its ImplicationsFollow Noah on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky Follow Breaking Math on Substack, Patreon, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Website, YouTube, TikTokFollow Autumn on Twitter, BlueSky, Instagram, SubstackBecome a guest hereemail: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

In this Masterclass episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav welcomes back Dr. Barbara Paldus of Codex Labs for a compelling deep dive into integrative dermatology—a next-generation approach that treats skin not as a surface problem, but as a window into whole-body health.This conversation reframes chronic skin issues through a systems lens, exploring how the gut, brain, immune system, hormones, and microbiomes continuously communicate—and how disruptions in one system can ripple outward to the skin. Instead of asking “How do we suppress this flare?” Dr. Paldus challenges us to ask “Why is the skin signaling distress in the first place?”You'll hear how stress, inflammation, microbiome imbalance, and intestinal permeability can quietly drive conditions like acne, eczema, rosacea, and psoriasis—often long before symptoms appear on the skin. The episode unpacks why conventional symptom-focused treatments sometimes fail to deliver lasting relief, and how root-cause care can create more durable, meaningful outcomes.Dr. Paldus also introduces a personalized teledermatology model that leverages biological data, at-home testing, and longitudinal tracking to design interventions tailored to each patient's unique internal landscape. From hormone-driven breakouts to chronic eczema and immune dysregulation, the discussion highlights how precision diagnostics can guide smarter, more sustainable treatment strategies.At its core, this episode invites listeners to rethink skincare entirely—not as a cycle of stronger products or short-term fixes, but as a long-term investment in systemic resilience.If you're curious about the future of dermatology, microbiome science, and why healing skin often starts far beyond the mirror, this episode offers a powerful preview of what root-cause, science-led care can look like.Listen to the full episode to explore how integrative dermatology is reshaping chronic skin care from the inside out.SHOP CODEXDon't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!*This is a sponsored collaborationSupport the show
