How do fish farmers survive? What can families eat instead? And what is Nigeria losing economically as fish farming declines?These are the issues we explore in this episode of Nigeria Daily.

Listener Menopause Exercise Question: Are You Exercising Too Much, Too Little, or Just Right?”   Recently, a listener asked a menopause exercise question, "I'm doing strength training three times a week for 30 minutes. Is that too much? If you have wondered, or wonder what is enough, too much or the Goldilocks for you, this is for you.   Based on a study in Ireland called Menowell (not to be confused with the bars), almost 70% of us get our information from friends and 50% get information from social media. So, beware. Even researchers right now are spending a lot of time and energy getting eyeballs and making shocking statements. Instead of merely sharing the facts, they're being as inflammatory as the influencers they claim not to be.    Quick Overview: Menopause can bring bone loss, muscle loss, metabolic changes, mood shifts & symptoms like hot flashes and sleep troubles. Promise: By the end, you'll know how to calibrate exercise for maximum benefit and minimal burnout, even if you're not experiencing any of these.    Why exercise is non-negotiable? Exercise is medicine.  Muscle is medicine and an endocrine organ.  Muscle is HRT if you allow it to be.  Like any other medicine, the right dose and timing are crucial.    How much is too little? I could answer in a very generic way: Minimum WHO/HHS guidelines:  150 min moderate aerobic + 2 strength sessions weekly  Under 150 min weekly leads to missed benefits like bone density maintenance and cardiometabolic protection   This is not a generic podcast and you're not a generic woman.  So, let's answer with the uniqueness you deserve. Whether you're exercising too little or too much your body leaves both objective and subjective data.    Red flags of Undertraining and Overtraining: Persistent fatigue Ongoing symptoms Plateau in strength/mood/weight.   More Answers to Your Menopause Exercise Questions   When exercise becomes too much: Excessive high-intensity sessions >3× weekly without recovery ups injury risk—especially for connective tissue for women in midlife.  Overtraining stress can aggravate symptoms, disturb sleep, mood, and adrenal health, appetite/cravings and libido.    Finding the sweet spot: Measure muscle and body fat (See Resources for my smart scale picks.)  Measure waist girth  Measure bone density through Dexa scan    Do-It-Yourself checklist: Track energy, sleep, mood, focus, libido, digestion, elimination (See Resources for Flipping50 Progress Tracker)  Between your objective and subjective measures, are you getting what you want? Not just immediate but long term?    References:  Cooper, D., Ward, K., Kavanagh, R. and O'Connor, S.

RFI reçoit Eloïse Layan de Forbidden Stories et Wethzer Piercin d'Ayibopost qui signent une longue enquête très documentée sur l'assassinat de deux journalistes haïtiens. Néhémie Joseph est mort le 10 octobre 2019, à Mirebalais, alors qu'il travaillait sur la contrebande à la frontière entre Haïti et la République dominicaine. Gary Tess, lui, dénonçait sur les ondes les mauvaises pratiques des hommes politiques haïtiens. Néhémie Joseph était un journaliste engagé, «un battant», raconte Eloïse Layan. Il se savait menacé. Il l'avait d'ailleurs écrit sur les réseaux sociaux une dizaine de jours avant sa mort, se disant la cible d'un complot ourdi, entre autres, par l'ancien sénateur Rony Célestin. «Il a trouvé la mort par des sbires du pouvoir en place», dénonce sa famille. Néhémie Joseph travaillait sur des sujets sensibles, notamment sur la situation de chauffeurs routiers rackettés par les gangs et obligés de transporter des armes. Un trafic dans lequel Rony Célestin était vraisemblablement impliqué. Forbidden Stories a décidé de poursuivre ses investigations. Eloïse Layan s'est rendue en Haïti et a marché dans les pas du journaliste haïtien à la frontière, à Belladère. Elle a recueilli de nombreux témoignages anonymes. Certains mettent en cause les agents de douane qui ne vérifient pas correctement les chargements, raconte la journaliste. Le nom de Rony Célestin revient également régulièrement. «Même les rapports d'experts des Nations disent que c'est un contrebandier qui a des liens avec les groupes criminels», précise Eloïse Layan. «C'est l'homme le plus puissant du département du Plateau central. Mais son influence s'étend jusqu'à Port-au-Prince.» Gary Tess, 39 ans, animait une émission sur une radio des Cayes dans laquelle il épinglait la classe politique haïtienne. Il a été tué le 18 octobre 2022. Le principal suspect est l'ancien procureur Ronald Richemond. Le journaliste l'accusait de voler des terres. Lui nie les accusations. Mais «il est mis en cause par de nombreuses personnes, dont certains de ses anciens collaborateurs», raconte Wethzer Piercin. «Même si Ronald Richemond est inculpé, le dossier traîne. Il y a une véritable omerta car les gens ont peur de parler. On ne sait pas si la justice va pouvoir mener son enquête jusqu'au bout», complète Eloïse Layan. Le travail d'Eloïse Fayan et Wethzer Pierin est à lire sur les sites de Forbidden Stories, du Monde et d'Ayibopost.   Donald Trump a-t-il vraiment gagné en faisant voter sa loi budgétaire ? Aux États-Unis, la presse revient sur la loi budgétaire que Donald Trump a réussi à faire voter par le Congrès hier (3 juillet 2025) et se demandent s'il s'agit vraiment d'une victoire. Le Washington Post se fait l'écho des inquiétudes de certains républicains. Le sénateur de Caroline du nord, Thom Tillis, a mis en garde Donald Trump, le week-end dernier. «Vous faites une bêtise», lui a-t-il dit au téléphone, raconte le journal. Selon ce sénateur, les coupes dans Medicaid prévues par la loi Budgétaire, vont coûter cher au parti : elles vont lui faire perdre la majorité à la Chambre des représentants lors des élections de mi-mandat, en 2026. Donald Trump a renié l'une de ses promesses de campagne, écrit le Washington Post, qui était de ne pas toucher au système de santé. Pour Josh Hawley, sénateur du Missouri, cité par le New York Times : «Nous ne pouvons pas être le parti des travailleurs si on supprime aux travailleurs leur sécurité sociale». Un argument que balaie du revers de la main le camp Trump. Pour le président et ses alliés, c'est une bonne chose que cette loi ait été votée bien avant les élections de mi-mandat. Les effets économiques seront visibles avant le scrutin, se réjouissent-ils, raconte Politico. En avril 2025, six mois avant les élections, quand ils rempliront leurs déclarations d'impôts, les Américains verront l'impact de la suppression des taxes sur les pourboires et sur la sécurité sociale. Quant à Medicaid, le camp Trump a prévu la parade : ils comptent «vendre les coupes dans le programme d'assurance maladie pour les Américains à faibles revenus comme une lutte contre le gaspillage, les fraudes et les abus», écrit encore le site d'information en ligne.   Les États-Unis et la Colombie au bord de la rupture diplomatique En Colombie, la presse revient sur la détérioration des relations entre Bogota et Washington. Hier, les deux pays ont rappelé leurs ambassadeurs respectifs. Cela fait plusieurs mois que la crise couvait. El Espectador dresse la liste de tous les points de crispation qui ont jalonné cette escalade. Il y a tout d'abord eu le refus de Bogota d'accepter le retour de Colombiens entrés illégalement aux États-Unis, puis la question des droits de douane, les remontrances de Washington qui trouve que Gustavo Petro n'en fait pas assez en matière de lutte contre le trafic de drogue et, en réponse, le refus de la Colombie d'extrader vers les États-Unis des responsables de groupes armés. Et puis, il y a eu «la goutte d'eau qui a fait déborder le vase», termine El Espectador : Gustavo «Petro a accusé de membres du Congrès américain d'avoir participé à la préparation d'un coup d'État afin de le renverser». Cette dispute intervient au pire moment, explique El Espectador. La ministre des Affaires étrangères colombienne a démissionné hier. Or, «le président et son entourage ne savent pas mener à bien des négociations sensibles. Ils sont trop dogmatiques», estime Lawrence Gumbiner, ancien diplomate américain. Et dans 15 jours, se termine la pause sur les tarifs douaniers décrétée par Donald Trump. Dans les colonnes de la Semana, l'ancien ministre de la Défense et ancien ambassadeur à Washington, Juan Carlos Pinzón demande au gouvernement colombien de «faire preuve de bon sens et de faire passer les intérêts nationaux avant ses intérêts partisans, politiques et électoraux».   Le journal de la 1ère En Guyane, le principal d'un collège s'est donné la mort.

Ever wonder why you keep hitting the same business plateaus despite working harder than ever? The answer might not be in another strategy or tactic—it could be staring right back at you in the mirror.In this raw, unfiltered episode recorded poolside at my health club during my sacred Friday creativity routine, I dive deep into what truly blocks business growth. The hard truth? Your success depends entirely on your willingness to face your demons and learn the necessary lessons at each stage of your journey. Many entrepreneurs remain stuck at the same level for years because they refuse to address the internal barriers holding them back.What's fascinating is how our brains often reject the simplest solutions because they feel "too elementary." I share a personal revelation about how I've abandoned fundamental business practices that built my seven-figure coaching business simply because they seemed too basic compared to building complex funnels and content systems. Sometimes, the breakthrough isn't found in doing more complicated things—it's in returning to the fundamentals with consistency and intention.The path to $100K requires entirely different lessons than the path to $1M. Your business growth mirrors your personal growth, and each level brings new challenges that require fresh perspectives. Whether you're dealing with rejection fear, imposter syndrome, or simply avoiding the "stupidly easy" tasks that would move your business forward, this episode offers the psychological framework to break through.Ready to face your demons and learn your next lesson? Everything you need is already inside you.

Welcome to The Peptide Podcast. Today we're going to talk about something that almost everyone on a GLP-1 journey hits eventually, the weight loss plateau. Thank you for listening to The Peptide Podcast. If you enjoyed the show and want to support what we do, head over to our Partners Page. You'll find some amazing brands we trust—and by checking them out, you're helping us keep the podcast going.  It starts like this: you begin a GLP-1 like semaglutide or tirzepatide, and for the first few weeks or months, the weight seems to fall off. You're eating less, not obsessing over food, and for the first time in a long time, it feels… easy. Then one day, the scale just stops moving. You're not doing anything different. You're still taking the meds. Still trying to eat well. Maybe you're walking more or lifting weights. But suddenly, nothing's happening—and the frustration kicks in. Sound familiar? Let's talk about what's really going on. 1. What Causes the Plateau? First of all, if you're in this place right now: you didn't mess up. GLP-1s are incredibly effective at reducing appetite and creating an initial calorie deficit, which is why people lose weight so quickly in the beginning. But your body isn't just going to let that continue unchecked. It adapts. This is called adaptive thermogenesis—a fancy way of saying your body becomes more efficient. You start burning fewer calories at rest than you did before. Your resting metabolic rate actually drops beyond what you'd expect just from losing weight alone. It's a survival mechanism. So what worked at the beginning—eating less and moving a bit more—might no longer be enough to keep the scale moving. This is totally normal.  2. Metabolism & Muscle: Why Strength Training Matters Now More Than Ever So now that we know why the plateau happens, let's talk about things we can do to help us get over it. Something that often gets overlooked but is absolutely critical—especially if you're on a GLP-1 or in any kind of calorie deficit. Resistance training is not optional. It's non-negotiable. Here's why. When you're losing weight—whether it's from a medication like semaglutide or just eating in a calorie deficit—your body isn't just pulling energy from fat. If you're not careful, it's also going to break down lean muscle tissue. And the more muscle you lose, the slower your metabolism gets. Why? Because muscle is metabolically active tissue. It burns calories even when you're doing absolutely nothing. So if you're not actively sending a signal to your body to keep that muscle, it'll start to let it go. That's where resistance training comes in. When you lift weights or do bodyweight exercises—think squats, push-ups, resistance bands, even heavy housework—you're telling your body: “Hey, I need this muscle. Don't burn it for fuel.” This is especially important for those on GLP-1s because these meds reduce appetite so significantly that you might not be eating enough protein—or enough calories in general—to maintain muscle without that extra stimulus. So if you've hit a plateau or want to prevent one, ask yourself: Am I strength training at least two to three times a week? Am I prioritizing movements that challenge large muscle groups—like legs, glutes, chest, and back? Am I fueling my workouts with enough protein? And let me be really clear, you don't have to become a gym rat. You don't have to lift crazy heavy weights. But you do have to move your muscles in a meaningful, consistent way. Protecting your lean mass is one of the best ways to keep your metabolism humming—not just during your weight loss journey, but after it too. Because this isn't about just losing weight—it's about building a strong, metabolically healthy body that can maintain that weight loss for life. 3. Mindset Check: The Plateau Is Not a Failure Now, let's get into the mental side of this journey—because it's just as important as nutrition, movement, and medication. One of the biggest challenges people face—especially when progress slows—is the mental roller coaster that comes with watching the scale. And I'll be honest: weighing yourself every single day is not ideal. Here's why. Your body weight naturally fluctuates. Daily. And those fluctuations have nothing to do with your actual fat loss or long-term progress. Instead, the number on the scale is influenced by things like: Hydration status – If you're slightly dehydrated, the scale may dip. But if you drank a ton of water the day before or had more salty food, it may go up due to water retention. Glycogen stores – When you eat carbs, your body stores them in your muscles and liver as glycogen, and for every gram of glycogen, your body stores about 3–4 grams of water. So a pasta dinner or even a healthy grain bowl can cause a temporary increase on the scale. Digestive contents – Let's be real: if you haven't had a bowel movement (constipation) or just ate a bigger meal, the scale might reflect that. Doesn't mean you gained fat. Inflammation or illness – If you're recovering from an illness, injury, or even a hard workout, your body retains extra water as part of the healing process. Again—temporary. But here's what happens when we don't understand this, we step on the scale, see a higher number, and panic. We question everything—“Am I doing something wrong? Is the medication not working? Should I eat less?” And that mindset spiral can lead to unnecessary stress, restriction, or even giving up. So what should you do instead? Focus on trends over time, not daily weigh-ins. Weigh yourself once a week at most, ideally at the same time of day, under the same conditions (like first thing in the morning before food or water). Or better yet—track non-scale victories: clothes fitting better, improved energy, reduced cravings, less inflammation, better digestion, even clearer skin. These are all signs your body is healing and progressing. Remember, your worth is not defined by a number, and fat loss is not always linear. There are ups, downs, pauses, and breakthroughs—and all of them are part of the process. 4. Habits: Recheck Your Routine Now, here's where we get really honest. Because as the months go by, it's normal for habits to loosen up. Maybe you're not tracking portions quite as closely. Maybe your steps have dropped. Maybe “just a bite” here and there has crept in more often than you realize. This doesn't make you bad or lazy—it makes you human. But if progress has stalled, it's worth revisiting the basics: Are you eating mostly whole, minimally processed foods? Are you staying hydrated and watching added sugars? Are you eating out frequently without paying attention to portions? Are you still moving your body every day? Small shifts can make a big difference. 5. Food Noise: Why It's Sneaking Back One of the most exciting things about GLP-1s is how much they reduce food noise—that constant mental chatter about snacks, cravings, and what's in the fridge. But for many people, that quiet doesn't last forever. Over time, especially as your body adapts to the medication or your dose levels off, food noise can return. You might find yourself thinking about food more often or wanting things you weren't craving before. This doesn't mean the med has stopped working. It means your biology is adjusting. What helps: Keeping meals protein-forward and fiber-rich Eating at regular times to avoid dips in energy or blood sugar Identifying emotional vs. physical hunger Managing stress and sleep, which both drive cravings This is the time to build real strategies—so you're not relying on the med alone. 6. Emotional Eating This brings me to my next point. Let's talk about something that often flies under the radar but can make a huge difference in your weight loss journey—emotional eating. This is when feelings like stress, boredom, anxiety, or sadness trigger you to eat, even if you're not physically hungry. It's totally normal, and many people experience this at some point. Now, GLP-1 medications like semaglutide or tirzepatide do a great job at reducing physical hunger by influencing hormones that control appetite. But they don't always fully address the emotional side of eating. So, even if your stomach feels satisfied, those emotional triggers can still push you toward cravings or eating for comfort. Recognizing emotional eating is the first step. Try to notice when you're eating because of feelings rather than hunger. Strategies like mindful eating, journaling your emotions, or finding alternative outlets—like walking, meditation, or chatting with a friend—can really help. If emotional eating is a big hurdle, working with a therapist or counselor who specializes in behavioral health can provide tools to manage those feelings without turning to food. Remember, managing emotional eating alongside your GLP-1 treatment can make a huge difference in overcoming plateaus and reaching your goals more sustainably. 7. Set Realistic Expectations: Fat Loss Isn't Linear Lastly, I want to talk about setting realistic expectations. I can't stress the following enough. You are not supposed to lose weight every single week forever. Your body needs breaks. Your metabolism needs to reset. And your mind needs time to adapt to this new version of you. Think of your fat loss journey like a staircase—not a slide. There are flat spots before the next drop. And guess what? Some of the most important changes—like maintaining your weight, building strength, or stabilizing your habits—happen during those flat spots. You don't need to push harder or go more extreme. You just need to keep showing up consistently. My Final Thoughts: Trust the Process The bottom line is trust the process. If you're on a GLP-1 and the scale has stalled, take a deep breath. This is a normal part of the process. It's not the end—it's just a signal to pivot and refocus. We want to build muscle. Prioritize protein. Revisit your habits. Stay active. And most importantly, don't give up. Thank you for listening to The Peptide Podcast. If you enjoyed the show and want to support what we do, head over to our Partners Page.
