IN THIS EPISODE Why your nutrition and exercise routine must change in midlife Adjusting your mindset for optimal strength and resilience Top strength and exercise recommendations for midlife women The benefit of consistency in fitness vs. an all-or-nothing approach Some of the most overlooked opportunities for healthier fitness and nutrition habits in midlife Non-negotiable force-multipliers for a healthier you Why sleep is the best thing you can do for your health Debunking certain health and wellness myths seen in the media QUOTES“You don't judge a tree for its leaves falling off in autumn– don't judge yourself for moving into a new season of life.” “We can sometimes fail to see that the small things make a massive difference, whereas in other areas of life, you will do small things with your partner, with your son, with your daughter, and you know that they compound– putting them to bed, reading the story, having that time, you know that these small little things add up to building up that relationship and making it stronger. But with exercise, it's very easy to take an all or nothing approach.” RESOURCES MENTIONED My Newest Book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Connect with Brian HERE!

ABOUT THE EPISODE:When Jennifer Ollis Blomqvist discovered Motivational Interviewing (MI) in a Swedish women's prison 25 years ago, she found more than a therapeutic technique—she discovered the antidote to professional burnout and the foundation for every meaningful conversation in her life. Now an MI expert and trainer who works with everyone from incarcerated individuals to parents navigating their children's substance use, Jennifer brings a refreshing perspective on how this evidence-based approach transforms not just our difficult conversations, but our entire energetic contract with change itself.In this conversation, Jennifer and I explore the delicate dance of supporting autonomy while maintaining boundaries, why school refusal might actually be a sophisticated form of communication, and how motivational interviewing becomes the connective tissue between love and limits. Her renowned book, "Lighthouse Conversations: Being a Beacon for Teens," will give you a practical framework for illuminating pathways without forcing direction - a critical distinction when your child's choices feel increasingly difficult to understand.When you listen, you'll discover:• Why sharing responsibility for change prevents parental burnout and creates more durable outcomes than attempting to architect your child's recovery alone• How to navigate the cognitive friction between supporting autonomy and maintaining safety boundaries—including the counterintuitive power of "doing nothing" as an active intervention• The critical difference between rolling with resistance versus reinforcing it, and why your nervous system's response matters more than your words• How motivational interviewing grows with you through different life stages—from negotiating with toddlers to supporting aging parents—making it the most versatile tool in your communication repertoire• Why school refusal might be your child's way of telling you they don't fit the institutional mold, and how MI can help you excavate the real issues beneath the resistance you see at surface levelEPISODE RESOURCES:Lighthouse Conversations: Being a Beacon for TeensJennifer's websiteEmail: jennifer@novovia.seTelephone: +46 736 - 19 54 46This podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityGet our free, 4-video course, Hope Starts Here, and access to our Limited Membership hereLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram hereWatch the podcast on YouTube hereDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

You know the look: the blank stare, the shrugged shoulders, the quiet "I don't care" that shows up no matter how engaging the lesson or activity is. When students feel apathetic, it can be one of the most discouraging challenges in the elementary classroom. But apathy isn't a lack of ability; it's a disconnect. In today's episode, I take a deeper look at why this is happening and share practical, simple strategies you can start using with your apathetic students right away.

THE AUDACITY OF THE MARS COLONIZATION VISION Colleague Eric Berger. In September 2016, Elon Musk presented a vision in Guadalajara that sounded like science fiction: a plan to colonize Mars to prevent a potential extinction event. Despite a recent rocket explosion, Musk proposed a "grandiose architecture" involving massive reusable rockets designed to transport a million tons of supplies and thousands of people to build a self-sustaining civilization. While skeptics viewed the timeline as unrealistic, the plan relied on established physics and the production of methane fuel on Mars. Musk's ultimate goal for SpaceX remains clearly focused on making humanity multi-planetary. NUMBER 1 AUGUST 1953

STRIPPING THE GUNS FOR A SUICIDE MISSION Colleague James M. Scott. For the March 9th raid, LeMayordered bombers stripped of all guns and ammunition to carry more incendiaries and prevent friendly fire in the dark. Crews viewed this low-level entry into a heavily defended city as a suicide mission, with predictions of 70% casualties. LeMay bypassed his superiors, not informing Washington or Brigadier General Norstad until the planes were nearly launching. The target was Asakusa, a dense residential district home to 135,000 people per square mile. The objective was to create a self-sustaining firestorm that would act as its own weather system. NUMBER 5 1945 OKINAWA
THE COUP ATTEMPT AND SURRENDER Colleague Evan Thomas. As the US prepared a third atomic bomb to drop on Tokyo, a military coup unfolded in the Japanese palace to prevent the surrender. Young officers attempted to seize the recording of the Emperor's surrender speech, but the coup was suppressed, and War Minister Anami committed suicide by seppuku. When the Emperor's broadcast finally aired, the depth of the Japanese "national psychosis" was revealed; even radiation victims in Hiroshima wept in despair, not because the war was over, but because their nation had surrendered.

There's a moment every elementary teacher experiences - the one where a behavior repeats, a parent asks a question, or an administrator says, "Can you tell me when this started?". Suddenly, you're replaying weeks of memories in your head, wishing you had written it down. Documentation may not feel like teaching, but it's one of the most powerful tools you have to protect your time, your students, and yourself. In today's episode, I'm sharing clear guidelines for documentation, along with practical ideas for creating a system that's manageable and sustainable throughout the year.

Maximizing your healthspan requires understanding your specific genetic blueprint to see how your body processes fats, carbs, and antioxidants. Standard medical school training provides only a fraction of the education needed to understand nutrition and prevention. I sat down with Dr. Jeff Graham to uncover why common health "hacks" like Vitamin E or intermittent fasting might be backfiring based on your DNA. We explore the transition from high-intensity athletics to longevity-focused movement, and how advanced testing identifies disease risks years before they appear on a standard lab report.Jeff breaks down the impact of the APOE and MTHFR genes on brain health, the surprising anti-inflammatory benefits of sardines, and why muscle mass is your greatest currency as you age. We also discuss the future of AI in diagnostics, the truth about CrossFit injuries, and why contrast therapy is a non-negotiable for cellular resilience."If you're investing in anything with your time or your money that isn't asking you to do something hard most days, then you need to run away." - Dr. Jeff GrahamSupport the show and get 50% off MCT oil with free shipping—just leave us a review on iTunes and let us know!https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/live-beyond-the-norms/id1714886566 About Jeff Graham:Dr. Jeff Graham is a performance and longevity expert combining clinical expertise with precision genomic medicine.

Today's episode is produced in partnership with the Global Challenges Foundation. The Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness of global catastrophic risks and strengthening global governance to address them. Global Challenges Foundation's 2026 Global Catastrophic Risks report outlines five of the biggest risks facing humanity today, including ecological collapse, the topic of this episode. You can find this report at globalchallenges.org/gcr-2026. Two of the authors of the chapter on ecological collapse are my guests today. David Obura is the director of CORDIO East Africa, a nonprofit research organization based in Kenya, and chair of the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services. Eva Mineur is head of climate and sustainability at Global Challenges Foundation. We kick off by discussing what we mean by ecological collapse and examining examples of this phenomenon already underway around the world, before turning to a longer conversation about how to strengthen international cooperation and global governance to prevent ecological collapse—and the catastrophe it would entail.
Mississippi Today health reporter Allen Siegler and health editor Laura Santhanam give an update on the state's plan to spend its initial pot of opioid lawsuit settlement money. Siegler's in-depth reporting has chronicled some issues and raised serious questions about how the state and local governments are spending the money, which is supposed to help address the scourge of opioid addiction, which has cost at least 10,000 lives in Mississippi since 2000.
There are texts like this one where we can't make sense of the suffering. Herod authorizes the killing of thousands of children to protect his political power, and we're left putting God on trial: why would He allow this? But that's why this Jeremiah text is so important: in the midst of the inevitable suffering in this life, the suffering is for God's glory. And what is God's glory? Mercy, peace, and the defeat of sin, death, and the devil. CHALLENGE GRANTA Luther House of Study donor is sponsoring a challenge grant.

Rooted in the theology of the cross and the Lutheran tradition of radical grace, this series offers both theological depth and practical guidance for pastors, church workers, and lay leaders.With conversations, real-life stories, and reflections from the front lines of ministry, Care of Souls equips listeners to enter the broken places of addiction not with easy answers, but with the crucified and risen Christ.Because in the end, it's not about fixing people—it's about preaching the Gospel.Listen to Care of Souls wherever you listen to podcasts or on the Luther House website: Care of Souls - AddictionGOSPEL Matthew 2:13-23 13 Now after they had left, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Get up, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him." 14 Then Joseph got up, took the child and his mother by night, and went to Egypt, 15 and remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, "Out of Egypt I have called my son." 16 When Herod saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, he was infuriated, and he sent and killed all the children in and around Bethlehem who were two years old or under, according to the time that he had learned from the wise men. 17 Then was fulfilled what had been spoken through the prophet Jeremiah: 18 "A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children; she refused to be consoled, because they are no more." 19 When Herod died, an angel of the Lord suddenly appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt and said, 20 "Get up, take the child and his mother, and go to the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the child's life are dead." 21 Then Joseph got up, took the child and his mother, and went to the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus was ruling over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And after being warned in a dream, he went away to the district of Galilee. 23 There he made his home in a town called Nazareth, so that what had been spoken through the prophets might be fulfilled, "He will be called a Nazorean."Support the showInterested in sponsoring an episode of Scripture First?Email Sarah at sarah@lhos.org or visit our donation page: lutherhouseofstudy.org/donate

What if worry stopped being a wall and became an action signal? Today we take on the everyday fears that stall big goals and break them down using a simple, repeatable framework that turns anxiety into momentum. Drawing from coaching work and the fear-setting method popularized by Tim Ferriss, we show how to move from vague dread to concrete action without pretending fear disappears. You'll leave with a t3-step tool you can use today: define the fear, prevent what you can, repair when needed. Apply it to outreach anxiety, high-stakes presentations, career shifts, or relocations. When the worry voice shows up, you'll have a script to answer it and a system to keep moving. If this helped, share it with someone who's stuck on the edge of a decision, and subscribe to get more practical frameworks for growth. Your next brave step is one question away: what's the worst that can happen?

David unpacks the three “families” that shape a man: the one you're born into, the one you create, and the third family you must choose — a brotherhood that challenges and holds you accountable. From generational patterns and epigenetics to the pressure of provision and the trap of isolation, this is a straight call back to growth, presence, and responsibility.Key Takeaways:- ~[00:40] Generational patterns: you inherit momentum, not destiny; epigenetics and environment.- ~[02:30] The pressure of the second family—provide, protect, perform—without dumping it at home.- ~[03:55] Numbing behaviors that steal presence: porn, weed, alcohol, overwork, scrolling.- ~[04:55] The Third Family: tribe, accountability, and men who “hold you to the fire.”- ~[07:00] Friends vs. brothers: empathy vs. accountable action; why most men lack it.- ~[08:40] Iron sharpens iron: challenge, follow‑through, and legacy.Watch on YouTube • Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Audible.

This week, I'm talking about one of the biggest factors that determines whether teams, marriages, families, and friendships stay strong or quietly fall apart: how we see each other.Most relationships don't break because someone did something terrible. They break because of misperceptions, unfair assumptions, and the slow erosion of unity. When we magnify each other's flaws, assign motives that aren't there, or expect others to live without the imperfections we allow in ourselves, everything becomes fragile.In this episode, I dig into:Why unity is built on accepting others' flaws rather than collecting themHow pettiness destroys marriages, teams, and even nationsThe difference between judging someone's actions and judging their motivesWhy magnanimity — generosity of spirit — is the foundation of strong relationshipsThe importance of each person understanding and embracing their roleHow gratitude and latitude protect relationships from unnecessary conflictIf you want to strengthen the relationships that matter most — at work or at home — this episode will help you see people more clearly and support them more effectively.
Medical advances over the past century mean our bodies are living longer than ever. But our brains aren't always keeping pace. Rates of Alzheimer's are rising, and the big question is, why? Emerging science suggests that our brain health in later life is shaped decades earlier, through everyday choices around food, lifestyle, and stress. Today, I'm joined by neurologists Drs. Ayesha and Dean Sherzai, who will share their NEURO plan; a practical guide that you can use today to keep your brain strong tomorrow.

On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes is joined by his good friend and fellow Black Belt Coach, Dr. Taher Dhoon—co-founder of the Colorado Surgical Institute and owner of an 18-operatory dental practice—for a deep dive into implant complications. They kick things off with a candid conversation on time management, shiny object syndrome, and how to balance business success with family life and fulfillment. Dr. Dhoon shares the systems he uses to juggle clinical days, content creation, and high-level strategy, including his cleverly titled "Get Your Sh*t Done" days. From there, they dive into the nitty-gritty of implant surgery complications—from the importance of case selection and managing patient expectations, to specific pre-op protocols like vitamin D, antibiotic regimens, and why SSRIs and bisphosphonates need extra attention. Dr. Dhoon also outlines his intraoperative strategies for preventing failures, such as the 50/50 drilling technique and why 45 Ncm of torque should be your new standard. The episode wraps with a practical post-op game plan for soft tissue management, follow-up protocols, and how to handle setbacks with confidence and composure. This conversation is a masterclass in surgical systems thinking, built from years of real-world experience. Be sure to check out the full episode from the Dentalpreneur Podcast!

Implementing a Strategy of Denial Defense: Colleague Elbridge Colby explains that a denial defense seeks to prevent China from seizing and holding key territory, specifically Taiwan, noting the coalition need not achieve total dominance but must destroy the invasion force in transit or deny it the ability to sustain control, effectively blocking China's political objectives. 1900 GERMANS ARRIVE CHINA
HEADLINE: The Planned Third Bomb and the Failed Palace Coup GUEST AUTHOR: Evan Thomas SUMMARY: As the U.S. prepared a third atomic bomb for Tokyo, a military coup attempted to seize the Imperial Palace to prevent surrender.

PREVIEW — Andrea Stricker — Nuclear Safeguards Framework for Saudi Arabia's Reactor Acquisition. Strickeroutlines essential precautions and international safeguard mechanisms necessary to prevent nuclear proliferation resulting from Saudi Arabia's acquisition of advanced nuclear power plant technology and fuel cycle capabilities. Strickerrecommends permanent International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguard protocols and comprehensive additional verification arrangements covering all present and future Saudi nuclear facilities, ensuring Riyadh cannot unilaterally eject IAEA inspectors or rescind international safeguard commitments if the Kingdom subsequently pursues uranium enrichment or nuclear fuel reprocessing activities for weapons development. Stricker emphasizes that binding safeguard protocols are essential to preventing Saudi acquisition of weapons-grade nuclear material and maintaining nonproliferation regime integrity in the Middle East.
New York Times columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin, a student of past financial calamities, talks about the likelihood the U.S. economy could be headed toward another crisis. He says there are concerns about the impact of AI, crypto currencies and shadowy investment firms operating outside the regulated banking system. How the nation fares, he says, depends much on the judgement, and perhaps financial interests of Donald Trump. “The entire business world now runs through one address – 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue – and to some degree through the prism of the whim of one individual,” Sorkin says. His new book, 1929, is about the financial panic that led to the Great Depression.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
