Listen ad free on Patreon.In today's episode, I sit down with Dr. Tiffany Towers, Clinical Director and licensed clinical psychologist at Seasons Malibu. Dr. Towers studied psychology and theater at Barnard College at Columbia University and earned her Doctorate in Clinical Forensic Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Her work pairs her strong clinical training with a creative, narrative-based approach to therapy.Dr. Towers and I discuss how looking at addiction through the lens of story can help loosen the grip of all-or-nothing thinking. Instead of seeing yourself as permanently defined by past behavior, this approach opens the door to examining patterns, shifting roles, and building a more flexible sense of identity.We also walk through the range of modalities used at Seasons, including EMDR, Brainspotting, somatic work, equine therapy, CBT, and DBT, with a focus on what they actually look like in practice and how to find credible versions of these treatments outside of a residential setting.Dr Towers also emphasizes the value in meeting people where they are, where that is abstinence or harm reduction, and how thoughtful, individualized care can support meaningful progress in either direction.My goal with this episode is to translate high-level clinical insight into something you can use and apply to your own life. Whether you are in recovery, considering change, or working in the field, this conversation offers a grounded, practical way to think about healing and what comes next.Today's episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠⁠Seasons ⁠⁠in Malibu. For over 18 years, Seasons has been a sanctuary for individuals seeking to reclaim their lives from addiction and mental health challenges. Our story began with a simple but profound vision: To create a luxurious sanctuary for individuals struggling with addiction or mental health issues, where they can receive the finest, evidence-based treatment in the world.Built on Compassion, Driven by ExcellenceWhat started as a small number of compassionate professionals has grown into one of the nation's most respected luxury treatment centers. But growth has never meant losing sight of what matters most—the individual engaging with our therapists, one-on-one, taking the courageous first step toward healing.From the beginning, we understood that truly transformative treatment requires more than clinical protocols. It demands a personalized approach, led by the most qualified professionals, in an environment that nurtures the whole person. That's why we've assembled a team where every primary therapist holds a Doctorate in Psychology - a distinction virtually unmatched in our field.Check out ⁠⁠⁠Seasons Malibu⁠⁠⁠ online or call 1-866-314-5160 for more information.Connect with Seasons on ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠DM me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen AD FREE & workout with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me chasingheroine@gmail.comSee you next week!

In this long episode, we look at several interviews conducted by notorious 'skeptic' author Michael Shermer on his podcast and "shitty YouTube channel", as it was memorably described by Rebecca Watson... After an introductory discussion of Shermer and his... ahem... chequered history (to put it legally non-actionably), we boggle at the decidedly low-energy Mr Skepticism as he interviews psychologist of abuse and gaslighting Jennifer Fraser PhD about her book about abuse and gaslighting and her own history of being abused and gaslit, all without breaking a bead of sweat. This is Michael Shermer, remember. Then we take in some lowlights of his unbelievably vapid conversation with store-brand Bari Weiss, Bari Weiss's wife, Nellie Bowles, who is just... insufferable. We conclude by voyaging fully into the sickness as we tune into a discussion Shermer had with rabidly Islamophobic Zionist neocon warmonger and racist reactionary crank Douglas Murray, all about how Islam is a 'culture of death' and maybe Israel accidentally did some bad stuff in Gaza but, y'know, that's war, or something. Big content warnings on this one. It's what I call a 'journey episode'. Not only is it over 2hrs long (we try to keep the length down but sometimes it's not possible) but all the way through it also raises topics that are very hard to deal with, including sexual and psychological abuse, and the manifold violent crimes of the state of Israel, including the Gaza genocide. And all through it, there is the personification of self-identified rational, logical, sceptical centrism nodding along like the libertarian reactionary and alleged abuser he actually is. I've made time stamps for this one, for ease of navigation or multi-session listening. The Intro to Shermer section starts around 13:50 The section dealing with the Fraser interview starts around 24:11 The Nellie Bowles bit begins around 1:04:00 And the Douglas Murray section starts at around 1:31:00 NOTES: Rebecca Watson, "So I'm in the Epstein Files" https://www.reddit.com/r/behindthebastards/comments/1p1noab/so_im_in_the_epstein_files_rebecca_watson_on/ Rebecca Watson, "Epstein Files Reveal How Pathetic Richard Dawkins and Others Really Are" https://www.reddit.com/r/behindthebastards/comments/1p1noab/so_im_in_the_epstein_files_rebecca_watson_on/ PZ Myers, "What Do You Do When Someone Pulls the Pin and Hands You a Grenade?"

In this episode, Dr. K shares his most controversial dating advice: stop dating the people you are attracted to. He explains that our "type" is often a biological mistake driven by psychological defense mechanisms, leading us into repetitive and painful relationship patterns. What to expect in this episode: The Myth of Romantic Instinct: Why the brain makes great calculations for survival but often fails miserably when choosing a partner based on "sparks". The Psychology of Projection: How the mind walls off parts of itself—like insecurity or guilt—and seeks out a "vessel" in a romantic partner to hold that energy. The "Nice Guy" Equation: A look at why people who view themselves as "good" are often attracted to "evil" or unavailable partners to house their own suppressed manipulative tendencies. The Fixer's Trap: Why some people are only attracted to "broken" partners and why they may unconsciously sabotage the relationship once that person actually gets healthy. Incels and the Defense of Hopelessness: A deep dive into why some individuals convince themselves they are "pathetic" to protect against the vulnerability of having hope. The "Mean Girls" Model: An analysis of how social groups use a "punching bag" to offload their shared insecurities, a pattern that mirrors toxic romantic dynamics. Integrating the Shadow: Practical steps for identifying the qualities you are attracted to within yourself so you can choose a partner based on actual fit rather than projection.

Dana invited Katie Reed onto the show after reading just one of her emails — and this conversation did not disappoint. Katie is a Forbes-featured buyer psychologist and AI strategist who spent 20 years as a psychotherapist before turning her expertise toward why people buy (and why they don't). In this episode, Dana and Katie dig into the Castle Guard Framework — four core psychological guards that run every purchase decision — and why traditional objection-handling actually makes things worse. They also get into the "husband objection," how to use AI to understand your buyers at a deep level, and why your customers aren't objecting at all — they're protecting themselves. What We Cover IntroWhy Dana invited Katie on after just one email — and what that says about great messaging MindsetScars vs. wounds: the difference between vulnerability that builds connection and vulnerability that invites pity FrameworkBuyers don't object — they guard. The psychology behind why your sales tactics may be making things worse Guard 1Drive — emotional motivation, urgency, and whether someone has the energy to actually do something Guard 2Identity — current vs. aspirational identity, belonging vs. uniqueness, and why moms tend to nail this one Guard 3Risk — financial, functional, social, and self-blame risk (and why a money-back guarantee isn't enough) Guard 4Pattern — the most overlooked guard: daily habits, status quo bias, and how disruption stops people cold TacticsSupporting the defense: the therapy technique that works just as well in sales calls Real TalkThe "talk to my husband" objection — and Dana's conversion-boosting trick for handling it with integrity AIUsing AI to understand your buyers at scale — and Katie's "fetch" prompt trick for auditing your sales page BonusKids, entrepreneurship, and why we should stop making our children wait to create value Key Takeaways Buyers guard — they don't object. Meeting them where they are relaxes the guard; fighting it tightens it. Every purchase runs four internal scans: Drive, Identity, Risk, and Pattern. Your messaging needs to address all four. "Time and money" are almost never the real objection — they're surface-level stand-ins for something deeper in one of the four guards. Supporting the defense (a therapy technique) is one of the most powerful sales tools you're not using. AI is your best tool for understanding buyer psychology at scale — use it on your transcripts, reviews, and sales calls. Share from scars, not wounds. Your audience shouldn't have to be your therapist.

What happens when someone everyone counted out becomes the one who builds it all? In this episode, I sit down with Rob C, whose story starts in chaos and lands in clarity. From early drug use and crime to serving time in prison at just 20, Rob's path didn't exactly point toward success. But after getting sober in California, everything began to shift.Rob opens up about the real work of rebuilding a life from the ground up, the mindset that carried him through early recovery, and how he went from having very little to building and selling multiple businesses. Along the way, he met his wife Amanda (yes, from the Sober Girl Group Chat

On this week's episode, it's time for Slughorn Unfiltered. We're going into the true memory that Dumbledore and Harry have been after, opening a significant path forward in the quest to defeat Voldemort! Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Chapter 22: After the Burial Is Hagrid being a bad friend by asking the trio to break curfew? This isn't the first time Hagrid has put Harry in danger re: Aragog; we recall moments in Chamber of Secrets which connect. Hermione and Ron's reactions to Harry taking liquid luck still make us giggle. How did Hagrid actually fend off all of Aragog's family to get him to his hut? Is Harry being a bad friend to Hagrid by inviting Slughorn to the funeral, knowing Slughorn wants to turn a profit? Could Harry have gotten Horace's memory without using Felix Felicis? We go through why Harry is successful and what steps are taken which ensure his victory with the memory. Does Horace Slughorn appear again in this book? Does he avoid Harry after this? Odds and Ends discuss the first Potions lesson of the year, which was an important one for both Harry and Draco.

Are you playing the game, or being played by it?Tom Bilyeu is an entrepreneur, co-founder of Quest Nutrition, and founder of Impact Theory, one of the most-watched interview platforms in the world. He has spent years studying the systems that shape financial outcomes, and in this conversation with Dr. Michael Gervais, he makes a case that most people find unsettling: the financial system you're working inside was not designed with your interests in mind.Tom argues that the single most important thing most people are missing is not effort or ambition, it's a clear-eyed understanding of how the system actually works. He walks through why inflation is not a natural economic phenomenon but a mechanism that quietly transfers purchasing power from workers to asset owners, why 10% of Americans own 93% of assets, and why the gap between the wealthy and everyone else is not a bug in the system, it's a feature.But this conversation goes well beyond economic critique. It's also about the beliefs and mental models we carry that keep us operating on a map that no longer matches the terrain. Tom introduces the idea that beliefs are not truths, they're interpretations, and that updating them, especially the ones about money, work, and what's possible, is the most leveraged thing a person can do. He also offers a clear-eyed take on AI and why the people who learn to use it as a force multiplier will have an enormous edge over those who don't.In this conversation, we explore:Why the Federal Reserve system was designed to benefit asset owners and how inflation quietly steals purchasing powerHow 10% of Americans came to own 93% of assets, and why it was baked in by designWhy your beliefs are interpretations, not truths, and how to use that insight to your advantageHow to think about investing across 12 to 15 economic forces rather than chasing individual stocksWhy AI is the most important force multiplier available right now, and how to use it without losing your own thinkingWhat the K-shaped economy is, what it means for the next generation, and what parents need to knowTom's not here to make you feel good about where things stand and where we're headed. He's here to hand you a better map. What you do with it is up to you.___________________________________________________Links & ResourcesSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!

The Psychology of Indoctrination: Why Intelligence Won't Save You What if the reason you think you're too smart to be indoctrinated… is the very mechanism that makes you vulnerable? You look at them, the people in the hats, the rallies, the belief systems, and you judge. You tell yourself: I'd never fall for that. But here's the uncomfortable truth: Indoctrination doesn't target stupidity. It targets certainty. In this episode of The Polymathic Perspective, we dismantle the hidden psychology behind cults, ideologies, and group identity, not to judge those who fall in… but to expose why every human brain is wired to.

Why is it so powerful for re-training?What are a few practical ways that parents and caregivers can maintain attachment during these disciplinary or re-teaching processes?What are some of the common behaviors that drive parents crazy? How can parents and caregivers maintain the intensity and pace of disciplining a child who has been impacted by trauma, without burning out?Support the showPlease leave us a rating or review.  This podcast is produced by www.CreatingaFamily.org.

In this season of WorkLife, we're pairing each of our regular episodes with a companion interview to do a deeper dive into the topic. This is the companion for our episode on the secrets of a great apology. Michael McCullough is a psychology professor at UC San Diego and a pioneer in the study of forgiveness, gratitude, and empathy—he finds that although forgiveness is important, it isn't always the answer to conflict. Michael and Adam discuss why humans evolved to forgive, examine what causes people to hold grudges, and settle last episode's debate about whether it's appropriate to ask for forgiveness.

https://teachhoops.com/ In this episode, we tackle the "October Plateau"—that frustrating reality where players work hard all summer only to show up in the fall with the exact same skill set. We pull back the curtain on elite performance environments like chess, music academies, and military war games to reveal the hidden architecture of growth. The secret? You have to stop asking your players to "prove it" when they should be "improving it." [0:00] The Psychology of Performance vs. Development Why players "self-protect" and play it safe when they feel judged. The "Chess Master" secret: Studying the mess instead of just playing the game. [08:15] The Lab: Where Messy is the Goal Defining The Lab mode: A zero-gravity environment for experimentation. Why "aggressive mistakes" are the primary metric of success in the off-season. The Coach's shift from "General" to "Scientist." [15:45] The Arena: Testing Under Fire Defining The Arena mode: Simulating the worst-case scenario. Using high-stakes, small-sided games to see if skills translate. Keeping the "Competitive Cauldron" alive without killing growth. [22:30] Implementing the 70/30 Split How to structure your summer hours: 70% Lab, 30% Arena. The power of "Naming the Mode" out loud to remove psychological barriers. Proving vs. Improving: Most practices fail because they blend these two. If a player thinks a missed layup in April affects their playing time in November, they will never try a new finishing move. The "October Plateau" is a Choice: If your players look the same year after year, it's a design flaw in your practice, not a lack of talent. Ditch the Whistle: During Lab time, your voice should be for encouragement, not correction. Save the whistle for the Arena to signal that the "score is live." Intent = Intensity: Deliberate practice is only possible when the intent of the rep is crystal clear to the player. THE RUNDOWNKEY TAKEAWAYS Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode, co-hosts Jonathan Wilson and Rob Draper bring this Graham Taylor series to a close with the Oslo qualifier that defined his reign: a chaotic, tactically muddled 2–0 loss to Norway at the peak of their ‘golden age', captured in painful detail by The Impossible Job. Unpacking Taylor's mounting stress, tabloid caricature and “no‑win” selection calls—especially the dilemma of persisting with an undercooked Paul Gascoigne—before explaining how the back-three plan collapsed, England's structure unravelled, and Norway's alertness (including a quick free kick) punished them. The episode breaks down England's chaotic structure, Norway's tactical calm under Egil “Drillo” Olsen, and Taylor's famous touchline outbursts, before tracing the fallout: “Norse Manure” headlines, concerns the players had stopped responding, and a demoralising US tour. England briefly revive by beating Poland, but lose in Rotterdam and, despite winning 7–1 in San Marino after conceding almost instantly, miss out as the Netherlands win in Poland. They assess Taylor's broader legacy, his misfortune with timing and player form, and his later rehabilitation at Watford.01:51 Norway's Golden Generation04:51 Tabloid Mockery Era06:11 Psychology and Pressure08:18 The Gaza Fitness Dilemma18:30 Paranoia and Tactical Switch22:50 System Collapse in Oslo25:57 Quick Free Kick Nightmare29:41 Norway Strike Again30:32 Tabloid Backlash32:07 Tactics And Trust35:18 Bigger Picture Failings42:56 USA Tour Fallout43:49 Last Chance Qualifiers45:36 San Marino Shock48:28 Reassessing the Taylor Legacy Hosted on Acast.

On today's show, I discuss how trust in communities often gets assigned before it's earned. How reputation, visibility, and repeated narratives shape who people see as safe or credible without direct experience.

Allie sits down with Trey Tucker — counselor, author, and former undercover volunteer with human trafficking raids — who risked his life participating in a human trafficking raid in Southeast Asia, helping rescue 20 young girls from prostitution rings run by ruthless mama-sans and corrupt networks. Trey shares gripping firsthand stories from the raid, the heartbreaking realities of how girls (many underage) were trafficked, and the emotional toll of going undercover while relying on his faith for recovery. The conversation also dives into the psychology behind evil in operations like Jeffrey Epstein's, why certain politicians maintain appeal despite controversies, and a Christian perspective on today's therapy culture that often glorifies victimhood over genuine growth and purpose. Trey discusses his new book "Tough Enough," exploring how to hone habits, cultivate strength, and step into God-given purpose without being derailed by distraction or feelings.

What can Adam Smith teach us today? In this conversation between Ross Levine of Stanford's Hoover Institution and EconTalk's Russ Roberts, Smith emerges as a penetrating psychologist who understood that our deepest hunger isn't for wealth but for respect--and that this hunger, left unexamined, leads individuals and societies alike into serious trouble. The discussion moves from the personal (why do highly successful people keep grinding long after they've "won"?) to the political: Smith's sobering warning that when a society admires wealth and power for their own sake, it breeds servility and undermines freedom. Along the way, there's a Marxist father reading Smith during COVID, a Nobel-adjacent economist who couldn't understand why anyone would bother with a 1759 book, and a childhood story about loyalty and friendship that cuts to the heart of what we may have lost in modern culture. This is a conversation about how to live well--using one of history's greatest thinkers as a guide.

Rex Heuermann pleaded guilty in Suffolk County Court to seven counts of murder and admitted to intentionally causing the death of Karen Vergata, an eighth victim incorporated into the plea agreement without separate prosecution. The plea followed the denial of every significant defense motion — including challenges to the admissibility of whole genome sequencing evidence, a motion to sever the charges into separate trials, and a 178-page omnibus motion. Whole genome sequencing was admitted in a New York courtroom for the first time. A deleted planning document was recovered from Heuermann's hard drive. The sentence — life without parole — was reportedly identical regardless of whether the case proceeded to trial or resolved by plea.A wrongful death lawsuit filed by Benjamin Torres — the son of victim Valerie Mack, who was six when his mother disappeared in 2000 — names Heuermann, his ex-wife Asa Ellerup, and their daughter Victoria Heuermann as defendants. The complaint alleges the two women had knowledge of or concealed the crimes, maintained access to a secured vault-like room in the basement of the approximately 1,300-square-foot Massapequa Park residence, and collected over one million dollars from a Peacock documentary production. The plaintiff's attorney, John Ray, has argued publicly that proximity and the physical dimensions of the residence make unawareness implausible. The complaint includes claims of willful blindness, unjust enrichment related to documentary compensation, and civil conspiracy.Defense counsel for Ellerup has characterized the lawsuit as reckless and unsupported. Victoria Heuermann was approximately three years old at the time of Mack's death. Prosecutors who built the criminal case against Heuermann have consistently maintained he acted alone and timed the killings for periods when his family was out of state. Neither Ellerup nor Victoria has been criminally charged. Hair evidence linked to both women was recovered from victims' remains. The prosecution has attributed this to household transference consistent with shared living space.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott provides analysis on the psychological mechanisms that enable prolonged unawareness within intimate partnerships involving offenders — specifically how identity structures built around a partner can create cognitive barriers to processing contradictory evidence. Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta examines the defense calculation behind the plea, the implications for open cases along the Gilgo corridor, and the practical enforceability of the FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit cooperation agreement.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Asa Ellerup called Rex Heuermann her savior. Their daughter Victoria sat in a packed Suffolk County courtroom and watched him plead guilty to killing eight women. Asa has maintained she would have known if something was wrong. Victoria has publicly said she believes her father most likely committed the killings. A mother and daughter inside the same house, the same marriage, the same nightmare — arriving at opposite conclusions. That split is the story.Benjamin Torres — the son of victim Valerie Mack, who was six when his mother vanished in 2000 — has filed a wrongful death lawsuit naming both women alongside Heuermann. The complaint alleges they knew about or concealed the crimes, had access to a secured vault-like room in the basement of the Massapequa Park home, and collected over a million dollars from a Peacock documentary. Plaintiff's attorney John Ray has argued the family could not have been unaware in a house of roughly 1,300 square feet. Hair evidence linked to both Ellerup and Victoria was recovered from victims' remains. The defense has called the suit reckless. Victoria was approximately three when Mack was killed. Prosecutors maintain Heuermann acted alone. Neither woman has been charged.Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott breaks down the psychology of "not knowing" — how the mind constructs barriers to protect an identity that's built around another person, why someone whose entire framework depends on the marriage being real may be neurologically incapable of processing contradictory evidence, and what a guilty plea does to the psychological architecture that held denial in place for decades.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta examines the plea mechanics. Every pre-trial motion had failed. Whole genome sequencing was admitted for the first time in a New York courtroom. A deleted planning document was recovered from Heuermann's devices. The sentence — life without parole — was reportedly the same whether he went to trial or pled. Motta walks through what the defense calculated, what Karen Vergata's uncharged murder being folded into the deal means for accountability, and what the FBI cooperation agreement actually requires. Open cases along the Gilgo corridor remain unresolved. The criminal chapter is closed. The civil and psychological ones are just beginning.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

E450 of Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan — In this deeply moving episode, Dr. Foojan explores The Weight of Grace, Tom Tenney's powerful debut story, born from a vivid dream and a heartfelt conversation about the invisible burdens we all carry. Inspired by the timeless phrase “Take up your cross and follow me,” and influenced by A Liberated Mind by Steven C. Hayes, Tom brings a compassionate lens to themes of resilience, emotional healing, and the quiet strength within human struggle. With a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, an MBA, and five years of experience as a therapeutic foster parent, Tom shares profound insights into empathy, listening, and transformation. Discover more at www.theweightofgrace.com. Journey of Grace and Struggle Tom shares the deeply personal journey behind writing The Weight of Grace, sparked by a dream and expanded through years of research into human burdens and emotional pain. By collecting real-life stories through Google Alerts and connecting with hundreds of individuals, Tom honors vulnerability and highlights a powerful truth: our struggles are not here to break us—they are here to reveal who we truly are. This episode explores storytelling, emotional resilience, and the human experience of overcoming adversity. Grace and Resilience in Literature In this soulful conversation, Tom and Dr. Foojan explore the evolving meaning of grace—not as the removal of hardship, but as the ability to support others through theirs. Through personal reflections and storytelling, they discuss vulnerability, healing, and a compelling character from Tom's book who reframes suffering as a source of strength. This discussion blends spirituality, psychology, and humanity, offering listeners a transformative perspective on resilience and compassion. Compassionate Connection Through Vulnerability Tom reveals his mission to foster human connection through vulnerability, inspired by both his book and real-world social experiments. From helping a stranger process emotional burdens in a park to envisioning an app that tracks acts of kindness, his vision is rooted in empathy and service. He emphasizes how separating emotions from identity and embracing small, meaningful acts of kindness can create powerful connections and support emotional healing. Grace and Compassion in Action Through a moving social experiment, Tom invited strangers to sit with him and share their struggles, creating safe spaces for authentic human connection. He distinguishes between grace—seeing others empathetically—and compassion—taking action to help alleviate their suffering. Tom hopes to expand this initiative across cities, inspiring a movement centered on vulnerability, kindness, and emotional support. This episode is a must-watch for anyone seeking purpose, connection, and a deeper understanding of the human spirit.#mentalhealth #Wellness #Relationship #PersonalGrowth #Self-Development

In this solo episode, I'm bringing you something a little different. I've been wanting to talk about the recent Finnish register study on gender-referred youth since it came out, and rather than wait until my written article was polished, I decided to open the draft I'd been working on, read it to you, and interrupt myself along the way with the commentary and speculation from a psychological lens.The study followed 2,083 adolescents and young adults who sought gender identity assessments at Finland's two centralized gender clinics between 1996 and 2019, compared against 16,643 age-matched controls. What the data show is sobering: nearly half of gender-referred youth had already required specialist psychiatric care before they ever walked through the clinic doors, and that number climbed to 61.7% two or more years after referral — whether or not they underwent medical transition. I walk through what "medical gender reassignment" actually captures (and doesn't), why Finland's gatekeeping model fundamentally changes how these numbers should be read, and what this means for the American informed-consent pipeline.The heart of this episode is a concept I've been trying to articulate for months: the untested hypothesis. It's the psychological trap in which a distressed young person becomes convinced that medicalization is the only path to wellbeing — and in doing so, builds an external locus of control so total that no outcome, approved or denied, actually improves their inner life. I close with a metaphor about a hotel room, an apartment, and why gender ideology actively disincentivizes the one thing these kids need most: getting comfortable in the body they already have.Visit my Substack for the full essay, which is read aloud with additional commentary in this video.[00:00:00] Start[00:03:15] Summary Of Key Findings[00:17:15] High Preexisting Psychiatric Burden[00:20:30] Finland's Gatekeeping Vs.

Do you avoid small talk in the office, or with your neighbor in the elevator? If so, you might want to give it a chance. According to a study just published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, even when participants were primed that a conversation would be boring, it turned out to be more interesting than they anticipated. Today on the show, we get into that, plus why scientists gave lobsters painkillers, and a clue about the formation of the Grand Canyon. Interested in more science?

My friend Josh Otani (Master's Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Utah State University and a Bachelor's in Psychology with a minor in Family Life from Brigham Young University; active LDS) joins us to talk about: * How to build a healthier tools and perspectives about the sexual part of ourselves * Untangling shame from our sexual part—not something that needs to be “covered up” * It's beautiful, inherent, and life giving * Thoughts are part of our experience—be curious—not your identity * Agency is after our thoughts—act within our value system * Working through betrayal trauma (ourselves and our role to help others) * Developing “safety and security” in a marriage comes at a price—the price of being vulnerable * Discussion of how to create a culture of vulnerability * Being a peacemaker—fresh perspective This is a super powerful episode to talk sexual shame and how to develop better tools and perspectives to do better. I wish I had listened to a podcast like this a long time ago—before becoming a parent and in my church assignments. I could have done such a better job to help reduce shame and a much more positive perspective on their road to recovery. Thank you Josh for being on the podcast. You are doing much good in our community. You give me hope.

If you've ever questioned whether a relationship is “right” you're not alone. In this episode, we unpack how our understanding of healthy relationships has evolved over time, and why the ones that actually last often feel steady and grounding rather than dramatic or intense. We reflect on past experiences where chemistry and excitement were mistaken for compatibility, and how that mindset kept us stuck in patterns that didn't truly serve us.

Frailty isn't just something that happens “later”; it's a gradual loss of resilience that can begin much earlier than most people think. Katy Bowman and Dr. Jeannette Loram unpack what frailty and pre-frailty mean biologically. They explore the five key hallmarks used to identify frailty, including walking speed and grip strength, and how a large proportion of people in their 30s and 40s already fall on the spectrum of pre-frailty.The conversation also explores the muscle–gut connection, explaining how frailty is influenced by exercise, diet, and the health of your microbiome. Katy and Jeannette also discuss the potential for rapid-onset frailty linked to the use of GLP-1 medications.Most importantly, frailty can be reversed and this episode focuses on what you can do. From simple ways to improve resilience through movement, nutrition, and rest, to understanding how your attitude toward aging might influence your resilienceEnhanced Show Notes and Full Transcript00:00 – Intro + Sponsors  01:30 – What Is Frailty (and Pre-Frailty)  03:00 – The 5 Hallmarks of Frailty  10:50 – How Pre-Frailty Can Start in Your 30s  12:40 – Muscle–Gut Connection & the Microbiome  19:40 – Exercise as “Fuel” for Your Microbiome  27:30 – Supplementation and the Psychology of Change  29:50 – GLP-1 Medication & Rapid-Onset Frailty  42:20 – Listener Question: Finding Glute Strength (Sponsored by Peluva)Resources and Books Mentioned:Joyspan by Kerry Burnight Frailty Sets In Far Earlier Than You'd Expect But You Can Reverse It, by David Cox in the New Scientist Frailty and pre-frailty in middle-aged and older adults and its association with multimorbidity and mortality: a prospective analysis of 493 737 biobank participants by Hanlon et al 2018Evidence For The Contribution Of Gut Microbiota To Age-Related Anabolic Resistance by Watson et al 2021Semaglutide Therapy and Accelerated Sarcopenia in Older Adults With Type-2 Diabetes: A 24-Month Retrospective Cohort Study by Ren et al 2025Connect, Move & Learn:Join Our Newsletter: Movement Colored GlassesFollow Katy on SubstackTry Katy's Virtual Studio Free for 7 days!Made Possible By Our Wonderful Sponsors:.My Happy Feet: Toe-spacing socks that gently realign toes for comfortable recovery—take 20% off with code MYDNAIkaria Design: The Soul Seat® offers height-adjustable, multi-position sitting—get 10% off new chairs and desks with code DNA10Venn Design: Beautifully upholstered ball-shaped Air Chairs that encourage dynamic sittingPeluva: Five-toe minimalist shoes that move like you do—take 10% off with code NUTRITIOUSMOVEMENTSmart Playrooms: Beautiful playroom design and movement-rich equipment—save 10% on monkey bars and rock-wall items with code DNA10Movemate: Active standing boards with smoothly articulating wooden slats.

When updating your resume or LinkedIn profile, it's tempting to use words that make you sound impressive—terms like “world-class” or “team player.” But hiring managers often see those words very differently than you might expect, and they can actually work against you. https://www.linkedin.com/business/talent/blog/product-tips/words-you-should-not-use-on-linkedin-profile-infographic Tipping has become increasingly complicated—and controversial. Requests for tips seem to be everywhere, suggested amounts are rising, and many people feel unsure about what's appropriate. At the same time, for many workers, tips are essential income. So how much should you really tip? When is it expected—and when is it not? Michael Lynn, professor of services marketing at Cornell University and author of The Psychology of Tipping: Scientific Insights for Services Customers, Workers, and Managers (https://amzn.to/4drNgyH), explains the science behind tipping, what influences how much people give, and how both customers and workers can better navigate this evolving system. There are probably things you've thought about doing—but haven't. Speaking up in a conversation. Making a change in your career. Taking a risk that feels important. Often, the biggest barrier isn't ability—it's permission. Dr. George James, licensed therapist and consultant, and author of I Give Myself Permission: Take Risks. Be Imperfect. Live Boldly (https://amzn.to/41fjiqb), explains why people hold themselves back, how those internal limits form, and what it takes to move past them and take action on what matters. You've probably heard a driver say, “That motorcycle came out of nowhere—I didn't see it.” It sounds like an excuse, but there's actually a real reason this happens—and it's something every driver should understand. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3482468/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS QUINCE: Refresh your wardrobe with Quince!

Bridget sits down with Andrew Gold, host of the Heretics podcast and author of The Psychology of Secrets, for a conversation about cult dynamics, Islamism in Europe, purity spirals, and what happens when your online tribe starts demanding you sell your soul to keep them. Andrew breaks down how YouTube channels, political movements, and entire cultures operate on the same psychological mechanics as Scientology and Heaven's Gate — just at different points on the spectrum. They get into why the UK can't talk about its rapidly changing demographics, how comedians and podcasters navigate audience capture without losing their integrity, Nick Fuentes and the strange new politics of antisemitism, the psychology of why people confide their darkest secrets to strangers, and whether independent media can survive without everyone going insane.Check out Heretics here: https://www.youtube.com/@UC4fQ-Cy8UpLPMwehPg-8ltQ
