Perinatal mental health is often a misunderstood landscape shaped by stigma, cultural expectations, and invisible struggles that touch entire families. In this replay episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker sits down with Dr. Kat Kaeni, perinatal mental health certified psychologist, author of The Pregnancy Workbook, and host of the Mom & Mind podcast, to break the silence around postpartum anxiety, depression, OCD, and psychosis.

Nigel Denning joins us to talk about his work with altered states of consciousness, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and holotropic breathwork. In each of these cases, integration is an important part of the experience, and is an ongoing process with multiple aspects that can unfold over time. We also talk about the therapist's role, including the need for presence, minimal intervention, and how to support people without imposing a fixed interpretation.Key TakeawaysNigel Denning is a counseling psychologist with nearly 40 years of experience in psychedelics, non-ordinary states of consciousness, and psychedelic-assisted therapy.Holotropic Breathwork: A method of entering altered states, developed from Stanislav Grof's LSD psychotherapy work, that does not involve any substances at all, but uses accelerated breathing, music, and supportive bodywork.Integration of Non-Ordinary States: A triphasic model that involves first capturing the experience, then translating it into language and story, then finding meaning — which often happens over time, in tandem with traditional therapy.Chapters00:00:00 - Podcast Opening and Guest Intro00:05:15 - Nigel's Psychedelic Beginnings00:17:55 - What Is Holotropic Breathwork?00:24:24 - The Symbolic Mind00:30:56 - Rethinking Psychedelic Integration00:53:00 - The Triphasic Integration Model01:00:48 - Rapid-Fire Reflections01:06:20 - Psychedelic Futures in AustraliaRead the companion article at psychedelicpassage.com.This podcast is edited by Chad Eschman. Our music is by Mic Coats. Psychedelic Passage is your partner in safe, supported, and effective psychedelic journeys.

Cross-examination turned into a credibility audit in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial this week. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation in the deaths of her children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 7 months — allegedly strangled with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She's pleaded not guilty, and defense attorney Kevin Reddington is arguing insanity: severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Reddington took his shot at Dr. Kirk Heilbrun, the prosecution's forensic psychologist, and didn't waste time. First point: the evaluation happened about three years after the killings — and Heilbrun himself agreed that sooner is better for assessing someone's mental state after an offense. Second point: Heilbrun's direct experience treating mothers who killed their children came from roughly 44 years ago, four or five patients total. Not exactly current caseload material.Then Reddington opened the CV — about 70 pages of it — and read the gaps into the record. Plenty on juveniles, on prisoners reintegrating into society, on sexual abuse. Nothing on pregnancy. Nothing on postpartum depression or psychosis. Heilbrun confirmed he's coached both prosecution and defense on how to present expert testimony, but Reddington made the point that his actual career has run mostly through prosecutors and corrections. Heilbrun also testified he never met co-evaluator Avram Mack in person until they crossed paths at Tewksbury Hospital, and that his total contact with Clancy amounted to 10.5 hours spread across three days.Afterward, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. Husband Patrick Clancy, out running errands that day, has since relocated to Manhattan.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lindsay Clancy, the 34-year-old Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023, is back in Plymouth Superior Court, and this week the prosecution brought out its heaviest hitter yet. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and defense attorney Kevin Reddington is running an insanity defense built on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication. Monday got messy before the end. Reddington moved for a mistrial after "mortal sin" came up for the second time from the prosecution's side. Judge William Sullivan said no, but told jurors to strike anything about sin or religiosity from Dr. Kirk Heilbrun's testimony — and made it clear the prosecution needed to keep their own witness on a shorter leash. When Heilbrun, a forensic psychologist, came bac

Dr. Kirk Heilbrun, a forensic psychologist called by the prosecution, took the stand today in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and her attorney Kevin Reddington is building an insanity defense around severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication. Heilbrun evaluated Clancy three years after the killings, and testified she tended to underreport or minimize her own symptoms — which, coming from a rebuttal witness, is not a throwaway line. He didn't dispute that her suicide attempt was serious; he said the opposite, noting she remains on one-to-one suicide precautions at Tewksbury and is still considered at risk. What he disputed is the cause of the children's deat

Bands rarely fall apart because somebody missed a chord.They fall apart because expectations about money, gigs, rehearsals, song choices, musical standards, commitment, and leadership go unspoken until somebody finally blows up.This week, we brought in somebody who actually knows what he's talking about.Dr. Jesse Erdheim is an industrial-organizational psychologist and wellbeing coach with more than 20 years of experience working with motivation, conflict, burnout, leadership, and change. He also fronts a working classic-rock cover band—so he understands band dysfunction from both sides.We talk about:*Why bands are uniquely difficult organizations*How mismatched expectations turn into resentment*How to give musical criticism without destroying morale*What psychological safety actually looks like in a band*Why emotional regulation matters before a difficult conversation*What to do when your band culture has already become unhealthyOne of the biggest lessons: sometimes the explosion you think came out of nowhere actually started months earlier when everyone stopped checking whether they were still working toward the same goal. Jesse describes his own experience with a guitarist whose frustration over money and travel finally erupted at a show—and how that changed the way his band communicates with new members.If you're a band leader, working musician, or anyone currently sitting in a group text wondering “How the hell did we get here?”—this episode is for you.More from Dr. Jesse Erdheim:jesseerdheim.comUpcoming book: A Full Cup: Reflections on Living WellJesse also fronts The Backroads, a Durham-area cover band performing around Durham, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough.https://www.facebook.com/thebackroadsdurham/https://www.instagram.com/the.back.roads__/#CoverBand #BandDrama #WorkingMusician #BandLeader #musicbusiness 00:00 Podcast kickoff00:55 Meet Dr Jesse01:53 From GNR to gigging03:48 Band leadership style05:37 Shared vision basics08:14 Why bands are hard10:21 Gig meltdown story12:44 Assumptions and alignment17:47 Common band problems23:20 Giving feedback safely27:16 Trust Bank Accounts27:44 Giving Notes With Care28:25 Adaptability Over Control30:02 Does The Audience Care31:03 Perfectionism And Perspective31:58 Are Musicians Different34:54 Win Win Band Leadership37:30 Pre Show Regulation Routine39:38 Time Confetti Planning42:09 Hard Conversations Toolkit45:30 Stop Rumination Loops49:59 Relationships And Wrap Up

Lindsay Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is standing trial in Plymouth Superior Court for the deaths of her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan. Prosecutors allege she strangled them with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023, then allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and her attorney, Kevin Reddington, is mounting an insanity defense built on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Wednesday's testimony picked up right where the defense wanted it to. Clinical psychologist Dr. Paul Zeizel, called by Reddington, told jurors Clancy was gripped by intrusive thoughts so persistent she believed people could hear them — and that if they did, her children would be taken from her. She called a suicide hotline twice in December and was turned away because she didn't have a plan, which apparently was the bar. Zeizel didn't sugarcoat what these thoughts do to a person: they don't ease up, they don't take breaks, and by January, his testimony went, they'd escalated into her mind telling her to kill herself. He also made a point jurors will have to sit with — that someone can be in psychosis and still function well enough to get through a day. After extensive testing, Zeizel says he found no psychopathy, but did find bipolar disorder with postpartum psychosis, and no indication she understood the wrongness of what she was doing.Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands when it happened and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial is expected to run several weeks.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two state troopers outside the door. A court order just to get in the room. That's the scene Dr. Paul Zeizel, Lindsay Clancy's clinical psychologist, described today at the Duxbury mother's murder trial, testifying about the first time he was allowed to see her in the surgical ICU after the killings. Clancy is accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and attorney Kevin Reddington is arguing an insanity defense centered on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Zeizel, who's met with Clancy more than 40 times, said that once he finally got access on February 4, she was handcuffed to the bed, disoriented about time and place but clear on who she was. She remembered the killings only faintly. He let her use his own phone to reach her husband Patrick — the first call went unanswered, the second got through — and on it she told Patrick she loved him, then described hearing a male voice commanding her to kill their children and herself. Zeizel testified he saw no sign she was lying, and noted that hearing voices shows up in roughly 80% of people experiencing psychosis. He also clarified the limits of his own role: psychologists handle testing, therapy, and treatment, but not medication.Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window and remains paralyzed from the waist down. Patrick Clancy has since relocated to Manhattan.

Dr. Paul Zeizel, Lindsay Clancy's longtime clinical psychologist, took the stand today in the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother's murder trial — and gave jurors the closest thing yet to Clancy's own account of what happened inside that Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy is accused of strangling her three children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan, with exercise resistance bands. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and her attorney Kevin Reddington is mounting an insanity defense built on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Zeizel testified he'd seen Clancy more than 40 times before that day. He wasn't allowed near her in the surgical ICU until a court order got him in at 12:30 p.m. on February 4 — by then she was handcuffed to the bed, two state troopers posted outside the door. He said she didn't know where she was or what day it was, but she knew her own name, and she remembered the killings, faintly, like something seen through fog. He let her use his phone to call her husband Patrick — twice, the first time going unanswered — and she told Patrick she loved him, then said a male voice had ordered her to kill their children and then herself. Zeizel didn't think she was lying. He also testified that roughly 80% of people experiencing psychosis report hearing voices.Clancy allegedly attempted suicide afterward by jumping from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. Patrick Clancy has since relocated to Manhattan. Zeizel's testimony resumes Wednesday. Trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court before Judge William F.

My guest today is an addiction expert, but I interest myself more in the concept of compulsions. I may have something I habitually do that is not necessarily harming anyone else, and is arguably not harming me in a direct sense, which is generally how we define addictions. But a compulsion may be something that I keep doing that may keep me from other, healthier activities. It may own me more than I own it. And more importantly, what we find is that addiction and compulsions are generally not being done for pleasure, but to mask or numb emotions we haven't or don't want to deal with. Adi Jaffe is a psychologist and author. His research and clinical frameworks challenge the one-size-fits-all, abstinence-only model of addiction recovery and replaces it with an individualized, evidence-based approach to lasting behavior change. Adi's authority is earned on both sides of the problem. Before his doctorate and the published research, Adi spent years inside his own methamphetamine addiction — an arc that ran through dealing, arrest, and jail before it ran through UCLA. That combination of lived experience and formal science is the foundation from which our discussion comes from. He has a new book, Unhooked: Free Yourself from Addiction Forever. I invite you to listen to this episode and consider your compulsions, if not addictions, and what you may be trying to artificially address, and why.

Testimony in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial keeps circling back to one question: who actually knew what, and when. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is accused of strangling her three children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 7 months — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and attorney Kevin Reddington is building an insanity defense around severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Under cross-examination today, Latisha Dukes, a counselor and psychologist at South Shore Hospital, confirmed she never reviewed the notes or records from Paul or Jollotta before treating Clancy — a gap defense attorneys clearly wanted the jury to sit with. Dukes testified Clancy feared getting addicted to Ativan just to be able to sleep, and that she was dealing with "unmanageable anxiety," depression, and both passive and active suicidal thoughts. On redirect, Dukes said skipping the prior notes was intentional — she wanted "fresh eyes" on the case — and added she had no role in managing Clancy's medications. Also on the stand: Duxbury Police Officer Cameron Dailey, who testified about being assigned to security detail watching Clancy at the hospital.Prosecutors maintain Clancy understood the nature of her actions regardless of her mental state. After the killings, she allegedly tried to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands that day and has since moved to Manhattan. The trial, underway in Plymouth Superior Court, is expected to last several weeks.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

IN THIS EPISODE   When we feel anxious, down, or just not like ourselves, we usually assume something in our life is to blame.   But what if sometimes the problem isn't your life… it's that your brain is missing a crucial nutrient?   In this episode of the ReThink Health Podcast, I sit down with Julia Ross, a pioneer in the nutritional use of amino acids for mood, cravings, eating disorders, and addiction. After more than 40 years of clinical work, she's helping answer some fascinating questions about the connection between protein, brain chemistry, and how we feel. You'll hear how amino acids like DLPA, GABA, tryptophan, tyrosine, and glutamine interact with neurotransmitter systems tied to mood and appetite. Julia also explains why cravings for foods like chocolate, sugar, bread, and cheese may offer clues about what's happening in the brain… and why getting enough high-quality protein is such an important nutritional foundation.   It's a fascinating look at mood and cravings from a completely different angle: not just what's happening in your life, but whether your brain has the raw materials it needs to function at its best.   You'll learn: The difference between a "true mood" and a "false mood" How specific amino acids support neurotransmitters involved in mood, calm, focus, and pleasure Why DLPA may support endorphin activity and emotional well-being How GABA, tryptophan, tyrosine, and glutamine each play different roles Why certain food cravings may offer clues about your brain chemistry How ultra-processed diets and low protein intake may affect amino acid availability How to tell exactly which amino acids you need for your most vibrant health If you've ever wondered why you can have a good life and still not feel good, this episode offers a fascinating new way to think about the connection between food, brain chemistry, and mood.   VALUABLE RESOURCES Paleovalley 100% Grass Fed Bone Broth Protein >>> Give your body the high-quality protein and naturally occurring amino acids it needs with Paleovalley 100% Grass Fed Bone Broth Protein for up to 20% OFF!   BIO   Julia Ross is a pioneer in the nutritional use of amino acids for mood problems, eating disorders, and addiction, with more than 40 years of clinical experience. Her work began in addiction treatment in the late 1970s and evolved as emerging neuroscience revealed how specific nutrients could influence the brain systems involved in mood, cravings, focus, and addictive behavior.   She is the author of The Diet Cure, The Mood Cure, and The Craving Cure and has directed clinics since the early 1980s. Today, her clinic also works virtually, allowing clients to trial amino acids with professional guidance from home.   THANKS FOR LISTENING! Thanks so much for joining us this week!

Forensic psychologist Dr. Kris Mohandie argued that the plea agreement that spared Bryan Kohberger from the death penalty was fundamentally flawed because prosecutors never required him to give a detailed account of how or why he killed Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin. Kohberger pleaded guilty in July 2025 and received four consecutive life sentences without parole, plus an additional 10 years, but in July 2026 he filed for post-conviction relief claiming ineffective assistance of counsel, alleging that he had been misled and again asserting his innocence. Mohandie said prosecutors should have forced Kohberger to commit to a complete version of events before accepting the plea, even if they suspected he would lie. Without that confession, Mohandie argued, Kohberger was left with room to later claim that he had been coerced, poorly represented or never truly admitted to the underlying facts of the murders. In his view, the plea deal gave prosecutors finality on paper but failed to extract the kind of detailed admission that could now be used to confront Kohberger's changing claims.Mohandie also criticized the deal for the renewed emotional toll it was placing on the victims' families, arguing that the post-conviction proceedings were forcing them back into a case they had been told was effectively over. He characterized Kohberger's latest legal maneuvering as consistent with what he viewed as a desire to outsmart the system, maintain notoriety and continue controlling the narrative around himself. Mohandie pointed in particular to Kohberger's handwritten petition and his decision to contact a reporter from prison before filing it as evidence that he continued to seek attention even after conviction. He described Kohberger as someone who believed he was smarter and more exceptional than others, while cautioning against treating convicted killers as fascinating or uniquely brilliant figures. The larger criticism was that prosecutors had an opportunity during the plea negotiations to pin Kohberger to a specific account of the murders and failed to do so, leaving an opening for exactly the kind of post-conviction challenge now unfolding.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger's plea deal was a mistake, says renowned forensic psychologist | Fox News

There was a time when the premise of nanny robots and artificial intelligence raising our children was merely the subject of Steven Spielberg's futuristic sci-fi films. The future, it seems, is now. As AI enters nurseries, playrooms, and classrooms, parents are being sold a “smart” childhood at every turn. With mainstream use of artificial intelligence, the power of parent talk and human interaction in childhood development has become even clearer. In her latest book, Human Raised, author Dana Suskind, MD, reveals the possibilities and perils of using AI and related technologies for child-rearing. What do parents and caregivers need to know to assess individual technologies and foster the skills needed to thrive growing up in an AI-driven future? Dr. Suskind has authored over 45 scientific publications and is a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics and a Fellow for the Council on Early Childhood. She is also the founder and Co-Director of the TMW Center for Early Learning + Public Health, Founding Director of the Pediatric Cochlear Implant Program, and Professor of Surgery and Pediatrics at the University of Chicago. Her previous books include the New York Times bestsellers Parent Nation and Thirty Million Words. This conversation originally took place on July 23, 2026 at the City Club of Cleveland. Guests: - Dana Suskind, MD, Author, Human Raised: Nurturing Connection, Curiosity & Lifelong Learning in the Age of AI - Lisa Damour, PhD., Author, Psychologist, and Senior Advisor to the Schubert Center for Child Studies, Case Western Reserve University

Can nature help us to feel less alone?

This exlpores explores three distinct modes of response—supportive, explorative, and interpretive—derived from psychodynamic principles to help navigate moments of emotional distress. By comparing these tools to a blanket for safety, a flashlight for curiosity, and a map for meaning-making, the author illustrates how to move from immediate nervous system regulation to deeper self-understanding. Ultimately, it emphasizes that timing is everything: true healing and connection require meeting ourselves and others where we are before rushing toward solutions or insights.

Psychologist and educator Fitzhugh Dodson once wrote, “Without goals and plans to reach them, you are like a ship that has set sail with no destination.” Goals matter, but they accomplish little without a thoughtful plan. And for Christians, that plan should involve more than increasing net worth, reaching retirement, or achieving financial independence. It should help us consider how God may be inviting us to use our time, abilities, and resources for His purposes. Ron Anderson, a Certified Kingdom Advisor® and Founder of Plan A Wealth Management in Lincoln, Nebraska, has spent more than 30 years helping people plan their financial futures. Increasingly, however, his work has also focused on something broader: life planning. What Is Life Planning? Traditional financial planning often begins with practical questions: How much should I save? When can I retire? How should I invest? What lifestyle can I afford? Life planning goes beneath those questions to address the deeper motivations behind them. Why do you want to succeed? What contribution do you hope to make? How will you use your time if you reach your financial goals? What unique gifts, experiences, and opportunities has God entrusted to you? “You need to know what your financial goals are,” Anderson explains, “but you also need to ask why you want to be successful. If you are financially on track, what will you do with your time and your life to make the contribution God has placed you here to make?” Life planning does not replace financial planning. It gives financial planning a greater purpose. Begin With the Deeper “Why” Financial decisions are often only the visible part of a much larger picture. Financial teacher Ron Blue has compared this to an iceberg. The decisions above the waterline—saving, spending, investing, and giving—represent only a small portion of our financial lives. Beneath the surface are our beliefs, priorities, values, fears, and faith. That is why a meaningful plan must begin with more than numbers. It requires honest reflection: What do I believe God has entrusted to me? What relationships and responsibilities deserve my attention? What needs or opportunities has God placed before me? What would faithfulness look like in this season? How might my financial choices help me become more available to serve? These questions may not produce immediate or easy answers. But asking them can help us move from simply accumulating resources to managing them with intention. Creating the Freedom to Say Yes A financial planner can play an important role in life planning by helping someone establish a reasonable lifestyle, prepare for future needs, and create financial margin. That margin can provide the freedom to respond when God redirects our plans. “If God nudges your heart to do something different with your time, energy, or occupation,” Anderson says, “you want to have the flexibility to say, ‘Yes, Lord, I will follow,' rather than, ‘I cannot afford to do that.'” This is one reason defining “enough” can be so important. Without a clear sense of enough, lifestyle expenses can continue rising alongside income. More money leads to more spending, which can make us increasingly dependent on maintaining a certain salary or standard of living. A reasonable lifestyle is not about deprivation. It is about creating the capacity to give generously, pursue meaningful work, care for others, and remain responsive to God's direction. The Value of Wise Counsel Life planning can be difficult to do alone. Our thoughts may feel clear internally but become more complicated when we attempt to put them into words. A trusted financial advisor, pastor, mentor, or mature friend can provide a place to process those questions honestly. Talking through your goals can reveal inconsistencies, clarify priorities, and expose assumptions you may not have recognized. Wise counsel can also challenge you when your financial plan and your stated values do not align. The goal is not for someone else to determine God's will for your life. Rather, wise counsel can help you think carefully, pray faithfully, and make decisions with greater clarity. What Scripture Says About Planning Your Life Ephesians 5:15–17 offers an important foundation for life planning: “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time…Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.” Scripture calls us to live intentionally. Our time is limited, and wisdom requires that we pay attention to how we use it. Understanding what the Lord desires involves spending time in His Word, seeking Him in prayer, listening to wise counsel, and honestly examining the opportunities and responsibilities He has placed before us. Life planning should therefore be approached with humility. We make plans, but we acknowledge that God directs our steps. As Proverbs 16:9 says, “The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.” The goal is not to create a perfect roadmap for the rest of our lives. It is to become more attentive and available to follow wherever God leads. When Financial Planning Serves a Greater Purpose Anderson has seen clients use life planning to pursue opportunities far beyond a traditional retirement plan. One couple gave a significant financial gift and later traveled overseas, where they helped translate the Bible while supporting their own ministry work. After returning to the United States, they purchased a property in Colorado where people serving in ministry could find much-needed rest. Their financial resources became tools for service, hospitality, and generosity. Not every life plan will involve moving overseas or beginning a ministry. Faithfulness may mean caring for aging parents, mentoring younger believers, volunteering in the community, supporting a local church, spending more time with family, or becoming more generous. The specific expression will differ from person to person. The important question is whether our plans are preparing us merely to become more comfortable—or helping us become more faithful. Planning for a Life of Faithful Stewardship Financial planning asks, “Will I have enough?” Life planning adds another question: “What will I do with what God provides?” Money is not the final destination. It is one of many resources God entrusts to us, along with our time, relationships, experiences, and abilities. A wise plan prepares for future needs, establishes healthy financial boundaries, and creates room for generosity. But most importantly, it helps us remain ready to respond when God presents an opportunity to serve. To learn more about Ron Anderson and Plan A Wealth Management, visit PlanAWM.com. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: I'm 75 and legally blind. After helping my daughter with a loan and a car, I expect to have about $5,000 a month available once the car is paid off in seven months. I'm uncomfortable with investing and would rather put that money into savings. Is that a wise approach? I have about $50,000 in consolidated student loans at 6% interest. Is it true that the remaining balance could be forgiven after 20 years? I also give generously to ministries and missionaries. Should I reduce my giving temporarily to pay down the debt faster? I have an indexed annuity with seven years remaining, and I'm charged a liquidity rider fee on each monthly withdrawal. What is that charge, and is there any way to avoid it? A collector is contacting me about a medical bill from 13 to 15 years ago, but they haven't provided documentation, and the hospital says I owe nothing. How long can someone legally pursue an old medical debt, and could they garnish my Social Security benefits?

Dr Cat Hicks is a psychological scientist and the founder of Catharsis, a human-centred research consultancy that works with engineering organisations. After self-funding her first open-access study into developer motivation, she was recruited to lead the Developer Success Lab at Pluralsight — a three-year programme that generated large-scale empirical research across hundreds of companies and more than 11,000 developers. Her book, The Psychology of Software Teams, published in July 2026, brings that evidence to bear on the question her industry keeps asking: why do smart people in smart organisations so often struggle to work well together? We talk about the hidden costs of treating developers as interchangeable units, what large-scale cycle time data reveals about individual performance, and how product managers can build the conditions for teams to actually thrive.Key takeawaysThe "brains and jars" model — treating developers as interchangeable, isolated computing units — does not just feel demeaning; it actively undermines the collaborative, social work that makes software teams effective, and is linked to burnout, self-censorship, and a breakdown of trust.Cycle time data from 216 companies and over 11,000 developers shows that individual performance fluctuates dramatically week to week — it is not a stable personal trait — which means slow periods are usually an environmental problem, not a personal one.Over-production pressure (the constant pull towards short-term delivery) has measurable cascading effects: developers stop mentoring, stop surfacing problems to managers, and stop investing in long-term code quality. It can be measured and, with committed leadership, changed within weeks.AI is producing genuine identity threats, not just productivity disruption. Teams that lower the "threat temperature" — framing change as a shared technical challenge and affirming that new skills can always be learnt — unlock significantly more adaptive and curious behaviour.Metacognitive scaffolding — building structured strategies for thinking about your own thinking, not just raw output — is more trainable than cognitive capacity and is almost entirely absent from how agentic coding environments are currently designed.Superordinate goals (shared outcomes that transcend individual preferences) allow diverse teams, including those who prefer deep solo work, to collaborate productively without demanding that everyone care about the product in the same way.Chapters(00:00) Opening (01:06) Cat's background and the book (04:40) Defining a software team (07:02) Building the Developer Success Lab (10:26) The brains and jars model (13:14) What the model costs teams (17:54) Why communicating value is so hard (19:04) What change looks like in practice (23:01) Code review anxiety and cycle time research (27:55) AI's effect on developer identity (31:57) Agentic coding and cognitive fatigue (35:46) Threat, play, and psychological safety (38:19) Working across disciplines (43:04) What product managers can do (48:00) Wrap-upReferencedThe Psychology of Software Teams by Dr Cat HicksThe Programmer's Brain by Felienne HermansThe Psychology of Computer Programming by Gerald WeinbergDeveloper Success Lab (Pluralsight)DORA projectCatharsis — Dr Cat Hicks's consultancyFight for the Human — Dr Cat Hicks's newsletterDr Cat HicksLearning Opportunities Claude skill — by Dr Cat HicksDeliberate practice and chess improvement study (44,000 Chess.com players)Our HostsLily Smith enjoys working as a consultant product manager with early-stage and growing startups and as a mentor to other product managers.

Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.”   Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.”   Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“   Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“   Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

What do you do when the school waits until the night before the last day of school to tell you your child is failing — and it turns out they broke his own IEP to do it? Dr. Amy Moore joins Cheryl this week. She's a cognitive psychologist and former teacher who left the classroom to research why struggling kids kept getting missed. She's also raised three sons — now 27, 25, and 21 — all neurodivergent, all homeschooled differently based on what they actually needed. They get into the real story behind pulling her oldest out of school in 6th grade after a last-minute email about 20+ missing assignments his 504 plan should have flagged much earlier. From there, Dr. Amy breaks down the difference between neurodiverse and neurodivergent, why social-emotional learning programs in a classroom of 30 can't replace what happens one-on-one at home, and how to tell if your child is dealing with a content gap or a skill gap when something isn't clicking. You'll hear about: The night her son's school broke its own legal accommodation — and what she did the next morningWhy co-regulation (not curriculum) is the missing piece in most SEL programsHow dual enrollment programs like Colorado Early Colleges let homeschoolers earn college credit for freeWhy a major meta-analysis found a leading reading approach wasn't moving the needle — and what she says actually isHer advice for any parent who's terrified an IEP means they can't homeschoolIf you're staring down a diagnosis, an IEP meeting, or a kid who just isn't clicking with the curriculum you picked — this one's for you.Connect with Dr.Amy:www.thebrainymoms.comwww.amymoorephd.comwww.instagram.com/thebrainymomsReady to homeschool but wondering where to start?

What is the relationship between nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and pain? Are individuals who self-injure less sensitive to pain than those who don't self-injure? What are the ethics involved in conducting research on pain? In this episode, Dr. Julian Koenig describes the research on the experience of pain among those who self-harm.

Dr. Joy sits down with neuropsychologist Dr. Tanisha Hill-Jarrett, assistant professor at UCSF's Memory and Aging Center, to talk through what brain health means, why it's broader than mental health alone, and the daily habits that support it: cardiovascular exercise, a heart-healthy diet, stress management, social connection, and quality sleep. They dig into what our phones are doing to us. Dr. Hill-Jarrett breaks down how short-form video triggers a bigger dopamine response than a typical reward, why the unpredictability of a feed keeps us scrolling, and what that means for sleep, attention span, and memory. She shares her own strategies, including separate personal and professional Instagram accounts and the Pomodoro method for resetting focus without reaching for a screen. The conversation turns to her research on Black women and Alzheimer's disease. Black Americans face 1.5 to 2 times the risk of white Americans, and Black women carry the highest projected prevalence of any group, a gap that shows up even among women who are upwardly mobile, largely tied to the neighborhoods they live in. Dr. Hill-Jarrett also unpacks weathering, the term coined by Arlene Geronimus for the accelerated biological aging that Black women experience, and points to research showing Black women's telomeres suggest they are roughly seven and a half years biologically older than white women at the same age. She closes with her current work on Afrofuturism and hopefulness, including a 10-week workshop where participants imagined a future free of time scarcity and reported feeling more hopeful about shaping what comes next. Her advice for anyone worried it's too late to protect their brain: it never is.

Dr. Adi Jaffe is a UCLA-trained psychologist, nationally recognized addiction expert, and bestselling author of The Abstinence Myth and Unhooked. Drawing from both his clinical expertise and his personal experience overcoming addiction and incarceration, he challenges traditional, shame-based recovery models and helps people address the emotional patterns driving destructive behaviors. Today on the show we discuss why addiction is often a solution to deeper emotional pain rather than the problem itself, how trauma and social anxiety can drive compulsive substance use, why removing the substance without addressing the underlying pattern can lead to relapse or replacement behaviors, how changing your internal narrative can reduce the need to escape, the daily practices that rebuild confidence and emotional stability over time, and why setbacks can become lessons that accelerate lasting change and much more.
