Podcasts about Protea

Another jaw-dropping reveal on The Masked Singer South Africa! After weeks of keeping both the detectives and viewers guessing, Protea was finally unmasked as SAFTA Award-winning actress Shannon Esra. The detective panel was completely off the mark, throwing out names like Moonchild, Sho Madjozi and Khutso Theledi but not one of them guessed Shannon. Speaking after the reveal, Shannon admitted that keeping her identity a secret was one of the hardest parts of the show, saying it sometimes felt like she was lying to the people closest to her. She also revealed performing inside the elaborate costume meant remembering one very important thing... to breathe! The Masked Singer South Africa airs Saturdays at 7pm on SABC 2.

La N-525 no es solo una carretera. Durante décadas fue una vía de salida, de regreso y de esperanza para miles de gallegos que dejaron atrás sus aldeas en busca de trabajo y futuro. En este episodio recorremos parte de su historia y de su memoria, viajando entre los viejos puertos de montaña de O Padornelo y A Canda, los autobuses imaginarios de la emigración y los recuerdos que aún permanecen adheridos al asfalto. Desde ahí nos adentramos en otro vestigio de aquella España rural: los grandes silos de grano que todavía dominan el horizonte de la Meseta. Para conocer su origen, utilidad y futuro conversamos con Emma Nogueiróu. También hablamos del proyecto impulsado por Bernardino Rosendo para crear un espacio permanente dedicado a la historia de los viajes en moto, un lugar donde conservar motos, documentos, fotografías y recuerdos de toda una generación de viajeros. En Madrid compartimos conversación con Protea, bióloga, mecánica, escaladora, espeleóloga y viajera incansable. Una vida extraordinaria que nos lleva por África, por la naturaleza y por algunas de las historias más sorprendentes de su trayectoria. Además, charlamos con Teresa, de Interfolio Libros, sobre literatura, viajes y la figura de Ted Simon. Completan el programa las próximas citas de Motorbeach Viajes, la Ruta Transcantábrica de Estoy de Ruta, el encuentro Biker Friendly de Vegadeo y, por supuesto, los comentarios de los oyentes. Un episodio sobre carreteras que aún conservan memoria, edificios que se niegan a desaparecer y personas que han vivido varias vidas en una sola.

Suid-Afrika se kaptein, Laura Wolvaardt, sê sy is baie trots op die span se vertoning in die Eendagreeks-Wêreldbeker vir vroue.

In antwoord het Marizanne Kapp vyf paaltjies geneem toe Engeland vir 194 uitgeboul is. Suid-Afrika sal teen Australië of Indië in Sondag se eindstryd te staan kom. Wolvaardt sê vennootskappe was die sleutel:

Welcome to the podcast with Dr. Brendan McCarthy!   While progesterone is often prescribed for its calming and hormone-balancing effects, some women experience the exact opposite—increased anxiety, depression, and emotional instability. This phenomenon, known as reverse responding, is more common than many realize. In this episode we explore: The neurological effects of progesterone and why it can backfire The role of allopregnanolone and the GABA receptor How trauma, PTSD, and adverse childhood experiences impact hormonal response Safer and more personalized treatment options—including transrectal delivery, low-dose titration, and supportive therapies like EMDR and testosterone modulation Why addressing hormone imbalances requires more than symptom management—it requires a deeper understanding of the brain-body connection   This science-driven, trauma-informed conversation offers vital insights for any woman who's felt worse after starting progesterone—and for the healthcare providers who want to help them.   Dr. Brendan McCarthy founded Protea Medical Center in 2002.

Welcome to the podcast with Dr. Brendan McCarthy! Today he addresses a topic many women have been waiting to hear more about: why some people don't tolerate progesterone well. Often overlooked in both conventional and alternative medicine, "reverse responders" experience heightened anxiety, insomnia, or mood shifts when taking progesterone — a reaction that defies the standard approach. Dr. McCarthy explores the science behind these responses, the emotional toll of being dismissed, and why deeper investigation and individualized care are essential. This episode is the first in a multi-part series where Dr. McCarthy shares: • What progesterone is supposed to do in the body • Why it can sometimes cause adverse effects • The importance of understanding hormone-brain interactions • A more compassionate and evidence-based approach to hormone therapy If you or someone you love has struggled with hormone treatments, this episode offers insight, validation, and a path forward.   Dr. Brendan McCarthy founded Protea Medical Center in 2002.
