When men get sick with a cold or the flu, do they actually suffer more than women — or just complain louder? Some fascinating research suggests there may be real biological differences in immune response between the sexes, which could explain the infamous “man cold.” I break down what scientists have discovered and what it really means. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29229663/ Picky eating feels normal today — separate meals for kids at the dinner table is often the norm. But it wasn't always this way. For most of history, children ate what adults ate or they didn't eat at all. Helen Zoe Veit, award-winning historian, associate professor at Michigan State University, and author of Picky: How American Children Became the Fussiest Eaters in History (https://amzn.to/3OolXKY) explains how and why picky eating became so common, the serious problems it creates — and why it doesn't have to be that way. Will artificial intelligence make us intellectually lazy — or is it about to unleash a new wave of human potential? Zack Kass, one of OpenAI's first 100 employees and author of The Next Renaissance: AI and the Expansion of Human Potential (https://amzn.to/3MoYM2I) argues that tools like ChatGPT are only scratching the surface. He explains why AI may not replace human thinking but amplify it — if we use it wisely. People form powerful judgments about you within seconds of seeing your online profile photo. Are you trustworthy? Competent? Approachable? Research shows the ideal expression isn't a huge grin or a stone-cold stare but something more nuanced — and getting it right can influence how others perceive you professionally and socially. https://www.forbes.com/sites/rogerdooley/2025/04/02/should-you-smile-in-your-profile-photo-heres-what-research-shows/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS QUINCE: Refresh your wardrobe with Quince!

After a year away from dating while building two businesses and rebranding a podcast, Krysta jumped back into the apps with fresh energy and clearer standards. What followed were two first dates that taught more about trusting your gut than any relationship ever could. When a guy texted "I'll let you decide where we sit" after failing to secure a spot at the bar he knew about in advance, she clocked the red flag but stayed for the drink anyway. What happened next—and the date that followed with someone else—revealed something crucial about standards, nervous system regulation, and why "being too picky" early on is actually just paying attention. In this episode we dive into:• Why your married friends might be giving you terrible dating advice (and what they're missing about modern dating)• The exact moment your gut is screaming at you—and why being in a rush makes you ignore it• How the standards you accept on a first date show up everywhere else in your life• The nervous system regulation technique that helps you make aligned decisions in dating, food choices, and businessWhen Your Gut Starts Screaming (But You're Too Rushed to Listen)• You're running late, texting fast, physically hurrying—and simultaneously asking friends "should I feel some type of way about this?"• The same energy that makes you ignore fullness cues or push through obvious burnout is what keeps you walking toward a date your intuition is rejecting• Your grandmother's five-minute rule before getting seconds applies to every decision: pause, breathe, drop your shoulders, plant your feet, and regulate before you decide• When you're in fight-or-flight while texting, you override the exact instinct that would protect you from wasting your eveningThe "Let You Decide" Text That Changed Everything• He asks you to text when you're two minutes away, then admits he's been waiting in his car instead of securing a table at the crowded bar you picked (at his request)• "I'll let you decide where we sit" immediately pushes you out of feminine energy and into masculine—you've now planned the date, picked the spot, AND have to find the table• This is information, not overthinking: if this is his best foot forward on a first date, what does month three look like?• The universe has your back—people will see themselves out without you needing to explicitly call them out (spoiler: he did)What Your Married Friends Get Wrong About "Being Too Picky"• When married people say "I could never date today," they think they're validating your strength but they're actually making dating feel like a punishment you have to endure• Every person who voted "think nothing of it and enjoy the date" was married—and when pressed, admitted they'd been out of the game for 10+ years• Leading with the assumption that dating is bad guarantees bad dating experiences—your words are spells, and you're casting the wrong ones• A "bad date" is actually a win because it gets you clearer on what you don't want, and removing yourself quickly is how you weed through to what you do wantThis conversation reminds us that standards aren't pickiness—they're self-trust in action. Whether you're navigating dating apps, deciding if you're actually still hungry, or evaluating a potential business partnership, the ability to pause and regulate your nervous system before making decisions is what separates aligned choices from rushed reactions. The person you're meant to build a life with won't make you question your gut on date one.Follow Krysta:Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thekrystahuber⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠@thespreadmktg⁠Instagram: ⁠@thefitnessfyx⁠

Episode SummaryWhat does faithful fitness actually look like inside a real household?

Dear Listener, are you stuck in singleness limbo—eternally swiping and messaging? Do you rarely get past dates one or two, and never into a long-term relationship? Does it seem like you almost never meet someone who feels unquestionably right for you?What if the thing keeping you single isn't your profile, lack of dating skills, or bad luck, but your brain running scared from doubt?In this episode, we explore an oft-missed culprit for chronic singledom: Relationship OCD (ROCD). We sit down with Relationship Center psychotherapist, sex therapist, and dating coach Cat Fillmore to unpack how this misunderstood form of OCD can quietly sabotage your dating life.Cat explains what ROCD actually is (spoiler: it's not just “being picky”) and how it shows up as an obsessional cycle: a trigger, an intrusive thought (“Do I really like them enough?”), spiraling meaning-making, intense anxiety, and then compulsions like endless Googling, reassurance-seeking from friends, or constant “checking” of your feelings.You'll hear how ROCD can lead people to swipe endlessly, dismiss promising matches over tiny details, or cut things off after 1–3 dates because the connection doesn't feel perfectly “just right.” Cat also shares how to tell the difference between ordinary dating anxiety and ROCD, why self-diagnosing is tricky, and why working with an OCD-informed therapist matters.Most importantly, Cat offers hope: ROCD is highly treatable—often with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—and you can learn to live with doubt, date more freely, and build real, lasting love.If fear about the “what ifs” of a relationship makes dating feel painful or pointless, this episode is for you.Key Takeaways00:00 - Intro03:01 - What is Relationship OCD?09:28 - What are some of the signs ROCD might be sabotaging your dating life?23:13 - Can can someone with ROCD find lasting love?

Are Christian women really "too picky," or are they finally getting clear on what God actually wants for them? In this episode, Keshia Rice breaks down the difference between shallow preferences and true standards and why strong, faith-aligned standards are one of the most loving things you can have for yourself and the partner God is preparing for you. If you've ever been told that your expectations are too high, this episode will set you free. What You'll Learn Why society pressures Christian women to settle — and why that's harmful How family, church culture, and social media gaslight women into doubting their discernment The difference between preferences (surface-level) and standards (character-level) How standards protect your heart, your peace, and your purpose Why emotionally stable, faith-aligned men welcome a woman with standards How to build a love list that's realistic, prayerful, and rooted in God's purpose for your life Scripture to Anchor This Episode Proverbs 4:23 — "Above all else, guard your heart…" Standards are one of the ways God equips you to do exactly that.

If mealtimes with your child have become a daily battle, you're not alone. Picky eating isn't always just a phase, and unfortunately many of the tactics that your parents used on you (like “You can't leave the table until you clean your plate”) often backfire. In this episode, I am joined by Alyssa Miller, RD, a picky eating specialist, to explore the real reasons that drive picky eating in toddlers and young children, including underlying gut issues and nutrient deficiencies. So if you're looking to get your child to eat more foods, and make mealtime peaceful again, Alyssa is here to help you find practical strategies to make your picky eater feel safe trying new foods without pressure, bribing, or giving in. ⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Join Alyssa's Free workshop to stop picky eating

In this episode, Dr. Jillian Lampert shares her extensive experience in the field of eating disorders, discussing the complexities of neurodivergent conditions such as ADHD and autism. The conversation explores the neurobiology behind eating disorders, the importance of understanding the brain-body connection, and the significance of seeking help. Dr. Lampert emphasizes that eating disorders are not merely behavioral issues but are deeply rooted in brain function and emotional responses. The episode also highlights the importance of recognizing red flags, developing coping mechanisms, and understanding the impact of societal messages on our relationship with food.TakeawaysEating disorders can manifest as both under-eating and overeating.Neurobiology plays a crucial role in understanding eating disorders.Picky eating can be a sign of an eating disorder, especially in children.Willpower is not the solution to eating disorders; it's about brain function.The brain-body connection is vital in managing eating habits.Establishing a routine can help regulate eating patterns.Red flags for eating disorders include impulsivity and dissatisfaction with body image.Seeking help is essential for recovery from eating disorders.Coping mechanisms and support systems are crucial for managing eating behaviors.Food can act as a drug, triggering emotional responses and cravings.Dyslexia, ADHD, autism, eating disorders, neurodivergent, mental health, nutrition, recovery, support, awareness, adults with dyslexia, support for adults.DR.

If you've ever found yourself dreading mealtime

This week, I'm throwing it way back to one of my most iconic episodes with the always delicious Sir InQ

In this episode of Real Estate Success: The Whissel Way, hosts Kyle Whissel and Bryan Koci tackle one of the toughest challenges in real estate: how to find a home for clients with extremely specific wants and needs. Sparked by a real Slack discussion within their team, Kyle and Bryan break down proven strategies that turn effort into opportunity, from high-impact door knocking and personalized letters to leveraging MLS data, agent networks, and social media. They share real-world examples of how agents within their team generated multiple potential listings in just hours and discuss why genuine hustle, collaboration, and creativity will always outperform waiting for leads to appear online.   Chapters 0:00 – The problem: buyers with ultra-specific home requirements 0:41 – Why most agents don't deserve to get paid 1:00 – Staying relevant in an AI and Zillow world 2:35 – The culture of collaboration at Whissel Beer Group 6:42 – Real success story: two sellers in two hours from door knocking 8:12 – Why a “specific” buyer is a gift 9:01 – The most effective strategy: knock on the damn doors 10:26 – What to bring and what to say when door knocking 14:14 – How to dress, knock, and leave a message 23:00 – Ten more ways to find off-market listings 27:00 – Why door knocking still wins and final takeaways

What exactly is a “raw diet,” and how do you make it safely? Host Dr. Alice Jeromin welcomes Dr. Susan Wynn, DVM, DACVIM (Nutrition)—Senior Director of Scientific Affairs at Nature's Variety/Instinct and former president of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association—along with JC Cash, CVT. They break down homemade vs. commercial raw diets, high-pressure pasteurization (HPP), supplier quality, SQF certification, and the research behind minimally processed pet food. We dig into microbiome findings, metabolomics (what it is and why it matters), process-induced toxins (like AGEs), transitioning from kibble, costs, toppers, and the truth about “picky eaters.” We also cover feline feeding quirks, dental health myths, and practical safety tips for pet parents.In This Episode- What “raw” really means today—homemade vs. commercial, and why that distinction matters- How Instinct approaches safety: vetted suppliers, HPP, test-and-hold, and SQF certification- Science check: microbiome, metabolomics, and why minimally processed can shift health markers- Process-induced toxins (AGES, acrylamides) and where heat processing fits in- Balanced diets 101: why “raw liver only” (or chicken-and-pasta!) isn't complete- Transitioning safely: step-wise switchovers, probiotics, and topper strategies for big-dog budgets- Cats! Palate development, why free-choice dry backfires, and hydration from raw/canned- Dental health: kibble vs. functional dental diets, bones, and risks to avoid- Picky vs. overweight: how feeding habits (and treats) drive confusionKey Takeaways- Commercial raw ≠ homemade raw; safety and balance depend on process and formulation.- Properly made raw diets can be complete, balanced, and tested—and show promising health signals.- Even 25% raw as a topper may confer benefits; meet owners where they are.- Treats should stay under 10% of daily calories; measure meals, don't free-feed cats.- Transition slowly (25% steps) and consider probiotics for sensitive pets.https://instinctpetfood.com/Dr. Susan Wynn, DVM, DACVIM (Nutrition) — Senior Director of Scientific Affairs, Nature's Variety/Instinct; long-time clinician and researcher in integrative nutrition.JC Cash, CVT — Educator and industry liaison focused on raw diet safety and veterinary outreach.--What started during the COVID-19 lockdown with one baby gorilla at the Cleveland Zoo has grown into a channel loved by animal fans around the world.

The only music more powerful than Taylor Swift is kids' music. ‘Golden' makes it back into the top 10, along with Alex Warren. AJ McLean of The Backstreet Boys made a fire remix of Taylor Swift's Elizabeth Taylor. Can the gang guess the first COUNTRY song ever played on MTV? The margarita proves again it's a superior choice. Hate Halloween but love likes? There's an app for that! Plus, zippers are a monopoly - who knew! Plus, when did that happen?

Brian Mulberry believes we're not in an asset bubble for AI, but the capital expenditures could be, arguing that AI companies are showing profitability in their earnings reports. However, if anyone pulls their cash commitments, the market could get nervous. He also covers Fed policy, and says the market hasn't priced in the possibility of no cuts. Brian covers his takeaways from this week's bank earnings especially as fears around regional banks grow.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Parents are asking a fair question: is what's on the school tray really food? In this episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz and guest Shari Gilford, NTP (Full Table Nutrition) open the lunchbox and get practical about raising healthier kids—at school and at home. The conversation swings from frustrations to solutions. Listeners will hear why many “kids' foods” are hyper-processed, hyper-palatable, and nutrient-void—and how families can pivot to real, brain-fueling meals without perfectionism or overwhelm. Shari Gilford is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner who helps children and families build nutrition habits for lifelong health. Through Full Table Nutrition, she educates and inspires families to enjoy fresh, whole foods and be nourished for life. Diagnosed with hereditary kidney disease at age 11, she understands how poor health can disrupt childhood—and why preventing obesity and type 2 diabetes (a leading cause of kidney disease) matters. Her mission is to help transform the health of an entire generation. In this episode, expect: Clear, compassionate guidance on sugar, dyes, and ultra-processed “food-like products,” including why kids average ~17 teaspoons of added sugar/day, how that relates to focus, mood, and classroom behavior, and why protein-first breakfasts change the school day. Practical lunchbox wins: muffin frittatas; meatball “muffins”; leftover taco meat with crunchy chips; tuna or salmon salad for omega-3 brain power; beef sticks; hard-boiled eggs; colorful produce that packs and keeps. Picky-eater strategies that actually work: involve kids in choosing veggies (beet or grated carrot salads, jicama “dippers”), taste-training away from constant sweetness, and fun “compare & prepare” nights to find favorite veggie textures. Smart swaps & step-downs: the sugar-cube visual (4 g = 1 cube), gradual transitions from sweetened to unsweetened peanut butter and yogurt, and moving from juice to whole fruit. A simple at-home experiment kids love: three days of protein-strong breakfasts vs. one high-sugar morning—then track energy, mood, focus, and “battery level.” Parent empowerment: how to teach kids the “why,” build a two-week rotation of packable meals, and make real food doable on busy school mornings. This conversation is hopeful and hands-on—less about guilt, more about doing the next right thing with real food that steadies minds, builds bodies, and sets kids up to thrive. Resources & Related Episodes: Episode 35: Childhood Obesity Shari's Web Page For Recipe Book Recommendations Shari's Book Recommendation: Getting to Yum: The 7 Secrets of Raising Eager Eaters by Karen Le Billon When looking for quality recipes, I always check to see if they use whole, nutrient-dense, properly prepared foods: quality proteins (grass-fed meats, pastured eggs, wild-caught fish), traditional fats (butter, coconut oil, olive oil, tallow), and a colorful variety of vegetables, with limited natural sweeteners and no refined/processed ingredients. Be sure to cook with saturated fats and add the olive oil later!  NOTE: To date, NTA/Jamie are neither affiliated nor receiving compensation of any kind for this or any other product or service featured on The Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast.

If every mealtime in your house feels like a showdown—tears, gagging, or flat-out refusal to try a bite—you're probably exhausted and worried. You've bent over backwards with rewards, consequences, and endless negotiations, yet nothing seems to work. I want you to know—you're not alone.In this episode, I'll share why your picky eater's behavior is more than just “being fussy,” the biological factors that may be driving your child's picky eating habits—from sensory sensitivities to gut health—and how you can bring more calm (and more healthy foods) back to the dinner table.Why does my child's picky eating feel like a constant battle?If every mealtime feels like tug-of-war, you're not imagining it. What looks like “bad behavior” is often your child's biology at work. Many kids aren't refusing food out of stubbornness—they're reacting to sensory sensitivities or a stressed nervous system.When we understand that picky eating is often about dysregulation instead of defiance, everything starts to shift.Here are a few truths I want you to hold onto:Behavior is communication. Food refusal can be your child's way of saying, “This feels overwhelming.”Sensory triggers are real. Textures, smells, and even temperatures can set off strong reactions.It's not bad parenting. Picky eating is a sign of a dysregulated brain—not a reflection of your efforts.Power struggles backfire. The more meals feel like a battle, the harder it is for your child to feel safe around food.Your child isn't spoiled or dramatic—they're struggling. And when we calm the nervous system first, we can bring more peace (and variety) back to the table.When your child is dysregulated, it's easy to feel helpless.The Regulation Rescue Kit gives you the scripts and strategies you need to stay grounded and in control.Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP at www.drroseann.com/newsletter and get your free kit today.What biological factors cause picky eating in kids?If your child's picky eating feels bigger than just “not liking vegetables,” you're right—biology often plays a huge role.Research, including twin studies from King's College London, shows that both genetic factors and environmental factors shape how kids develop food preferences. That means picky eating isn't about willpower or stubbornness—it's about what's happening inside your child's body and brain.Common biological roots of picky eating include:Gut issues like dysbiosis or inflammation that can shift cravings and digestionNutritional deficiencies (zinc, magnesium, B6) that impact appetite and mood regulationNeurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD, autism, anxiety, or OCD that make eating more restrictiveEarly feeding experiences (reflux, choking, low muscle tone) that create stress around foodGenetics—studies show identical twins share more picky eating behaviors than fraternal twinsConnections to other eating disorders such as ARFID, which can overlap with restrictive eating patterns and disordered eating behaviorsIn some cases, body image concerns may show up in older kids or teens, further complicating eating habits

One listener asks whether making out too early sends the wrong signal, sparking a deep dive into intentional dating and the 12-date rule. Then, it's an “Icky or Picky” scenario straight from Snapchat hell: a guy reconnects after years apart only to flood her phone with baby selfies and MILF jokes. Ick or endearing? Plus, a date goes sideways when a woman drops her date's bolognese, and he reacts like it's a crime scene. Another listener wonders if being asked to pay for a date's oil change is a red flag. Tune in for laughs, cringe, and straight-up truth bombs about love, attraction, and first date expectations! Watch full ep here
