She survived a Christian patriarchy cult, escaped a near murder-suicide, was excommunicated for telling her own story, and spent 15 years in intensive trauma therapy doing the work to put herself back together. Now she's handing you the map to healing from religious trauma.In this episode, Tia and I dig into the real mechanics of religious trauma recovery: why your body refuses to believe you're safe even when your brain knows it, what "aftermath" actually means (it's an agricultural word, and it will change how you see your own devastation), why grief work is not optional, and what agency has to do with the entire trajectory of your healing.Key Takeaways:What does it actually mean to "belong to yourself" after religious trauma has dismantled your sense of identity from the inside out?Why trauma survivors often write, speak, and even think about themselves in the passive voice, and what that reveals about the agency that was quietly stolen from themWhat the agricultural origin of the word "aftermath" tells us about why the most painful, raw season of your healing is also the most generativeWhy anger and bitterness after religious trauma aren't signs that something is wrong with you, and what they're actually trying to show youHow complex PTSD can keep a survivor locked in survival mode for years, making life-altering decisions in a state of ongoing shock without ever realizing itGet Tia's books:A Well Trained WifeI Belong to MeFollow Tia everywhere on social media!

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we're navigating through a myriad of transformative advancements reshaping the industry. From artificial intelligence-driven research breakthroughs to strategic acquisitions in emerging therapeutic areas, these developments are setting new benchmarks in drug discovery and patient care. **Strategic Acquisitions and Expansions:** Samsung Biologics' recent proposal to acquire Swiss CDMO Polypeptide for $1.8 billion marks a significant expansion into peptide production, underscoring the growing therapeutic importance of peptides. Their specificity and efficacy make them particularly appealing for metabolic disorders such as obesity. This acquisition reflects a strategic move to capture emerging market opportunities as demand for innovative metabolic treatments rises. Eli Lilly's bold $2.8 billion acquisition of Atai-Beckley highlights the pharmaceutical industry's shifting focus towards psychedelics. As mental health disorders like depression and PTSD become more prominent, psychedelics hold great promise for new therapeutic approaches. This acquisition may pave the way for further research and acceptance of psychedelics within mainstream medicine, offering new hope for patients. Another notable development is Tempus' acquisition of Personalisis for $1.5 billion. This move strengthens Tempus' cancer treatment portfolio by leveraging genomics-driven insights, emphasizing precision medicine's critical role in oncology. **AI Integration and Technological Innovation:** Bristol Myers Squibb is doubling down on AI integration by expanding its collaboration with Nvidia to build what promises to be the most powerful AI supercomputer dedicated to life sciences. This development is pivotal as it signifies a deeper commitment to harnessing computational power in R&D. By accelerating drug discovery and optimizing clinical trial processes, AI stands to revolutionize how treatments are developed and tailored to individual patients. Overall, these developments indicate a dynamic phase characterized by technological innovation and strategic collaborations. The integration of AI into drug development processes stands out as a transformative force, promising enhanced efficiency and efficacy in bringing new treatments to market. **Regulatory Milestones and Clinical Trials:** In regulatory news, Takeda's Qdenga has achieved a milestone by becoming India's first approved dengue vaccine. This approval is crucial in addressing neglected tropical diseases, with significant implications for public health in regions where dengue is prevalent. By reducing dengue fever incidence, this vaccine could play a vital role in improving health outcomes in many tropical countries. Promising results have emerged from clinical trials across various therapeutic areas. 4D Molecular Therapeutics reported an 87% reduction in treatment burden for wet AMD using their gene therapy candidate 4D-150 in Phase 2b trials—demonstrating potential as a transformative approach with reduced intervention frequency. Latigo Biotherapeutics' Nav1.8 inhibitor LTG-001 outperformed Vicodin in Phase 2 trials for acute pain, offering a non-opioid alternative amidst the opioid crisis. Meanwhile, Regenxbio's five-year data on surabgene lomparvovec shows sustained efficacy in wet AMD and diabetic retinopathy—underscoring its potential as a long-term treatment option. **Financial Performance and IPO Activity:** Financially, Abbott exceeded expectations with strong sales from their device and diagnostic divisions, prompting an upward revision of their full-year profit forecast. This reflects sustained demand for innovative diagnostic solutions and medical devices—highlighting Abbott's strategic market positioning. The IPO landscape remains active with companies like Nuvox Therapeutics seeking to raise funds for advancing oxygen therapeutics targeting hypoxia-related diseases—showcasing renewed investor interest and confidence within biotech innovation. Latigo Biotherapeutics is preparing for an IPO to advance its pipeline, demonstrating a strategic response to the opioid crisis. By developing alternatives that minimize addiction risks while providing effective relief, Latigo underscores the industry's commitment to safer pain management solutions. Turning to clinical trials, Scribe Therapeutics plans a $96 million IPO to advance its CRISPR-based lipid-lowering therapies, marking significant interest in genetic solutions for cardiovascular diseases like hyperlipidemia. The precision offered by CRISPR technology could revolutionize treatment options for conditions contributing significantly to cardiovascular health burdens. **Geopolitical Influences:** Geopolitical factors are also influencing market dynamics, particularly in the UK biotech sector where IPO plans are being shaped by global uncertainties despite robust venture capital backing. This situation underscores the complex interplay between regional economic conditions and global investment trends in biotech innovation. As these trends continue unfolding across the industry landscape—from AI-driven research advancements to strategic acquisitions—the potential impact on patient care paradigms remains profound. These developments not only promise new possibilities within drug development but also influence broader healthcare delivery models aimed at improving patient outcomes globally.Support the show

A U.S. Army veteran steps onto his back porch at 3 a.m., lights a cigarette, and comes face to face with a being made of shadow and starlight. That's just one chapter in the extraordinary story of Drew Bankey — Iraq War veteran, Lakota sundancer, pipe carrier, and self-described channeler of entities including Osiris, Archangel Michael, and what he calls "Source" itself.In this conversation, Drew traces his path from PTSD and ayahuasca ceremonies to spontaneous channeling, dream prophecies that came true down to the day, and a face-to-face ET encounter that changed the direction of his life. We cover: how a second ayahuasca ceremony "blasted him into the spirit world" and opened the door to channeling; a golden eagle dream from 2017 that manifested — literally — nine days before his birthday on the side of a Colorado road; a Native American Yuwipi ceremony where a Bigfoot reportedly materialized in a sealed, pitch-black room, witnessed by another attendee; and his theory that UFO disclosure isn't a revelation about "aliens" at all, but about a future version of ourselves.Whether you come from a background in psychedelic therapy, indigenous spirituality, trauma recovery, or the UFO conversation, this episode sits at the intersection of all of it — and asks what it actually means to reconnect with something larger than yourself.If this conversation moved you, subscribe and leave a comment with the moment that hit hardest — and check the description for Drew's books and community.Find Drew: Sacred Journeys Within — his books "I'm Perfect And So Are You" and "Find Your Inner Guru" are available now.#Ayahuasca #Channeling #UFODisclosure #NativeAmericanSpirituality #Consciousness
Topics covered : Tragic death, complex grief, severe injuries, PTSD.This is my conversation with the incredible Zoe Holohan from March 2021.On the 23rd of July 2018, Zoe and her husband Brian were on their honeymoon when disaster struck. Wildfires swept through the seaside town of Mati in Greece where they were staying and claimed the lives of 102 people. She miraculously survived despite her extensive injuries, while Brian, unfortunately didn't.In this conversation we hear how she and Brian met, what a wonderful man he was, their beautiful wedding day and how her life changed forever just a few days later, on their honeymoon.She also speaks about her Dad and the close friendship they had, and how his death 3 weeks after that terrible day in Greece was yet another trauma to have to come to terms with.This was by far one of the most moving conversations I've ever had, and I am in awe of Zoe's courage, strength and resilience.Her book :‘As the smoke clears : The inspirational true story of surviving Greece's deadly wildfires, overcoming devastating loss and discovering a path to renewal.'

PTSD isn't always born in a firefight or a resuscitation bay. Sometimes it grows quietly while you sit at a computer, doing your job well, watching the worst parts of humanity play out on screen. We sit down with Dr John Tullius, a former CIA officer and current professor at the Naval Postgraduate School, to talk about post-traumatic stress disorder, vicarious trauma, and the unique toll of open source intelligence in the social media era.John shares what changed in his work with the CIA after 9/11, how analysts shifted from newspapers and radio to high-volume internet monitoring, and why repeated exposure to torture and killing can be one of the most pernicious pathways to PTSD. We dig into the cultural and organisational barriers that keep people silent, then unpack a surprisingly effective intervention: a psychologist who designed group sessions for safety and anonymity and ultimately got most staff to seek help. If you lead teams in intelligence, law enforcement, military units, or first responder organisations, you'll take away concrete ideas you can apply.We also connect it to healthcare worker PTSD and burnout, including what it feels like when a difficult patient story or a child's death triggers a body-level stress response. We talk screening, prevention, and why “I'm fine” can hide a lot, plus the uncomfortable truth that alcohol often becomes the go-to numbing strategy in high stress professions.

Trauma isn't just something that happens to us—it can shape how our nervous system responds to the world for years. In this conversation, Dr. Lorne Brown sits down with clinical psychologist Dr. Arielle Schwartz to explore how trauma, the nervous system, and the vagus nerve influence everything from burnout and anxiety to chronic illness, relationships, and overall wellbeing.Together, they discuss polyvagal theory, why many people experience a "wake-up call" in midlife, how the body stores unresolved experiences, and practical ways to restore resilience through body-based healing, self-awareness, and nervous system regulation.Key Takeaways:Trauma is stored in both the body and the nervous system—not just in memory.Healing requires both top-down (mind) and bottom-up (body) approaches.A healthy nervous system is flexible, not permanently stuck in stress or shutdown.Midlife often exposes unresolved patterns that have been hidden for decades.Self-awareness, self-compassion, and body-based practices help restore resilience and coherence.Where to find Dr. Arielle Schwartz:Website: https://drarielleschwartz.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/arielleschwartzboulderFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/drarielleschwartzYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5LUxnXbReV7I5cEzvb46sQBook: https://drarielleschwartz.com/books-by-dr-schwartz/Blog: https://drarielleschwartz.com/blog/ Podcast: https://drarielleschwartz.com/podcast-appearances/ Dr. Arielle Schwartz's Bio:Renowned speaker, author, and esteemed clinical psychologist, Dr. Arielle Schwartz has been widely recognized for her research and clinical advancements in trauma treatment, which have shaped the landscape of trauma recovery and elevated the standard of care all across therapeutic settings.Dr. Schwartz promotes a strength-based, embodied approach to trauma recovery that emphasizes self-driven healing to facilitate post-traumatic growth.

Raised as a Chaplain's kid inside the school he worked in, Rachel grew up believing music was her calling, until a private-school culture that prized "excellence" over commitment told her otherwise. What followed were years of depression and PTSD, a panic attack that took her off a stage she'd never feared, and a night she told her mum she wasn't "good”, words that landed her in a psych ward.Together they wrestle with the harder questions: how do you hold onto faith when the place that raised you also broke you? What does healing look like when you're queer, asexual and self-sacrificing to a fault? Rachel doesn't offer easy answers: she calls herself "a terrible Christian" in the same breath she talks about leading worship every week. But she's back on stage, fronting a band, and figuring out grace one gig, one Sunday, and one honest conversation at a time.#FilthyHope #ChristianPodcast #GritWithGrace #FaithNoFilter #ChaplainsKid #PsychWard #MentalHealthAndFaith #AsexualAndChristian #QueerAndChristian #WorshipLeader

Ep. 468: The Know Your Rights Map: Obstetrical Violence, Birth Trauma, and Patient Rights in the Hospital Birth Room with Cristen Pascucci [Re-Air of Ep. 203] In this Birth Lounge Podcast episode, host HeHe interviews Kristen Pascucci, founder of Birth Monopoly, about birth trauma and obstetric violence in hospital birth. They discuss trauma as a self-defined response that overwhelms the system, common trauma/PTSD symptoms (intrusive memories, nightmares, avoidance, physical reactions, triggers including the hospital or even the baby), and the overlap with prior sexual trauma. Pascucci explains obstetric violence as appropriation of the birthing person's body and subordination through coercion, manipulation, pressure, disrespect, and power dynamics, ranging from jokes about birth plans to forced procedures; vaginal exams without true informed consent are highlighted as a common example. They also cover reporting options (hospital complaints, state licensing boards, lawsuits) and why accountability is often limited, including low disciplinary rates and barriers to malpractice cases, and share resources at birthmonopoly.com including an obstetric violence map. 00:00 Accountability and Advocacy 02:06 Informed Consent Basics 04:09 Meet Cristen Pascucci 05:34 What Birth Trauma Means 09:23 Trauma Symptoms and Triggers 16:13 Defining Obstetric Violence 20:13 The Pyramid of Harm 21:39 Common Example Vaginal Exams 33:02 Reporting and Medical Boards 45:29 Resources and Closing Guest Bio: A former communications strategist at a top public affairs firm in Baltimore, Maryland, Cristen Pascucci is the founder of Birth Monopoly and Birth Monopoly's Doula Power group, co-creator of the Exposing the Silence Project, and, from 2012 to 2016, vice president of national advocacy organization Improving Birth.

This week, the girls rewatch Charmed S5E11: The Importance of Being Phoebe AKA A Young Ho Cautionary Tale.The season five episode feels like a Shondaland prequel, which is probably why the girls love it. Cole puts his law degree to work, using the law to defeat his former sisters-in-law; P3 can't pass a health inspection, and Paige is jailed for vehicular murder. Cole's perversion of the law and the health risk are another attempt to reunite with his obsession, Phoebe Halliwell. Sadly, misogyny and true crime PTSD are not enough to get the girls to give the episode a bad rating.The girls tackle the literacy crisis during the pop culture R.E.P.O.R.T From murder mysteries to Norse mythology, the girls have you covered with Tom Mead's The Murder Wheel and Danielle L Jensen's A Fate Inked in Blood. They also continue their Matthew Rhys obsession as Nelle finally finishes Widow's Bay and Rae finishes The Beast in Me on Netflix. Rae gets into NBA rivalries with Untold: Shooting Guards.Before Nelle & Rae bind this spell (read episode), they get “Messages from The Seer” in a new segment. The Charmed Ones always asked the know-nothing Elders for help solving their magical dilemmas. So Nelle does what they should have done and asks the cards how Phoebe should have handled Cole and how Piper should have dealt with the health inspector.Witches, press play and join the girls as they talk pop culture and break down Halliwell hijinks in the latest episode of "Black Girl Charmed" — A Charmed Rewatch Podcast.Subscribe and join the fandom now!
What comes after rest? In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, Dr. Deb Lindh explores a question we rarely ask: What if enjoyment isn't something we earn, but something we intentionally cultivate? Drawing on the work of positive psychology pioneers Barbara Fredrickson, Martin Seligman, and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, this episode explores the science behind positive emotions, flourishing, and the power of being fully present. Learn the difference between entertainment and enjoyment, why positive emotions are essential to well-being, and how allowing ourselves to experience enjoyment can become part of the healing process. Healing isn't only about recovering from difficult experiences. It's also about rediscovering the moments that remind us what it means to be fully alive.

How could someone come home, tell you they love you, laugh with you, make plans for the future, and still hide an affair? That contradiction is one of the most disturbing parts of infidelity. It can leave you questioning whether the loving moments were real, whether your partner was secretly a completely different person, and whether your entire relationship was some kind of carefully constructed illusion. In this episode, I explain how compartmentalization allows someone to separate their marriage, affair, values, and self-image into different mental categories. We will look at how partial truths, selective attention, and self-protective stories can help someone continue seeing themselves as a good person while repeatedly making choices that violate their own stated values. I also explain why describing an affair as “one mistake” can hide the many smaller decisions that made it possible, what genuine accountability actually requires, and why betrayed partners should look for more than affection or transparency when deciding whether someone is becoming trustworthy. If you are struggling to make sense of what happened, stop replaying the contradictions, or feel safe in your own judgment again, you can book a free call with me. We will talk through what you are experiencing, what you want to change, and whether my approach is the right fit for helping you move forward.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. The industry continues to forge ahead, making significant strides in scientific advancements, regulatory approvals, and strategic business developments. These moves are reshaping the landscape of drug development and patient care. Starting with Merck & Co.'s recent FDA approval for Lipfendra, the world's first oral PCSK9 inhibitor, this marks a pivotal shift in managing hypercholesterolemia. Traditionally, PCSK9 inhibitors have been administered via injection, but Lipfendra offers a more convenient oral alternative. This could significantly improve patient adherence and outcomes by easing the administration process for those managing cholesterol levels. The drug's approval highlights a crucial advancement in cardiovascular treatment, with expectations of reaching peak annual sales of $5 billion, underscoring its market potential. In another significant development, Eli Lilly has entered the burgeoning field of psychedelic therapeutics with its acquisition of Ataibeckley for up to $3.8 billion. This move reflects a growing trend toward exploring novel therapeutic avenues for psychiatric disorders. Psychedelic compounds promise new hope for patients with depression and other mental health conditions where conventional therapies have shown limited efficacy. Eli Lilly's investment signals confidence in the transformative potential of psychedelics, which could revolutionize treatment paradigms for conditions like depression and PTSD. Turning to obesity treatment, Novo Nordisk's Wegovy pill has received European Commission approval for obesity and overweight adults. As a small molecule GLP-1 receptor agonist, semaglutide enhances satiety and reduces caloric intake. This development underscores the increasing focus on metabolic disorders and highlights the competitive landscape as companies race to dominate the weight management sector with innovative oral formulations. In oncology news, Merck & Co.'s Keytruda has achieved a milestone in becoming the first PD-1 inhibitor to demonstrate phase 3 benefits as a single agent in frontline mismatch repair-deficient endometrial cancer. This success not only reinforces Keytruda's role in oncology but also emphasizes the importance of precision medicine approaches targeting specific genetic mutations in cancer therapy. The industry is also seeing substantial financial maneuvers aimed at bolstering research capabilities and market reach. Johnson & Johnson has raised its 2026 financial guidance following Tremfya's impressive $2 billion revenue milestone with its IL-23 inhibitor for autoimmune diseases. Additionally, their strategic supply chain restructuring reflects efforts to enhance operational efficiency amid a broader U.S. manufacturing push. On the regulatory front, Johnson & Johnson received UK MHRA approval for Akeega in BRCA1/2-mutated metastatic prostate cancer, highlighting ongoing focus on precision medicine and targeted therapies in oncology. Meanwhile, Medtronic's recall of Harmony Catheter Delivery Systems due to safety concerns serves as a reminder of ongoing vigilance in medical device safety regulations. In clinical trial advancements, InnoCare Pharma's TYK2 inhibitor demonstrated efficacy in a Phase 2 trial for nonsegmental vitiligo, achieving its primary endpoint and paving the way for Phase 3 studies. This highlights TYK2 inhibition as a promising strategy for autoimmune diseases like vitiligo. Moreover, we witness movements towards public offerings with companies like Vogenx and Braveheart Bio aiming for IPOs to fund their respective drug development projects. These efforts underscore the continuous drive for capital to propel innovative therapies through clinical trials and towards commercialization. Finally, turning to regulatory updates, Sanofi has entered new chapters in mRNA patent litigation against Pfizer and Moderna, reflecting ongoing tensions over intellectual property rights within the high-stakes realm of COVID-19 vaccines and mRNA technology. The outcomes here could have far-reaching implications for mRNA-based therapeutics and vaccine development. As we look at these developments collectively, they illustrate a vibrant period for pharmaceutical and biotech companies innovating new treatments while navigating complex regulatory terrains. The implications for patient care are profound, with potential improvements in therapeutic options driven by new scientific breakthroughs and strategic industry shifts. These dynamics promise to reshape the future landscape of global healthcare delivery and pharmaceutical innovation as these trends continue to unfold.Support the show
When he was six years old, his family moved into an old farmhouse where the nights were filled with footsteps outside his bedroom door, whispered voices, and the unmistakable feeling that someone else was in the house. Although his parents tried to reassure him, other members of the family occasionally experienced strange things of their own, making it difficult to completely dismiss what was happening.The family eventually moved away, and whatever had frightened them seemed to stay behind. Or so he thought. More than thirty years later, after hearing a conversation about "paranormal PTSD," he suddenly realized the little routines he'd carried throughout his entire adult life—sleeping with the bedroom door cracked open, leaving lights on, and rushing up dark basement stairs—had all started in that farmhouse.Did the haunting end when they moved... or did part of it quietly stay with him?#ParanormalPTSD #HauntedHouse #HauntedChildhood #RealGhostStories #GhostStories #Paranormal #OldFarmhouse #LifeAfterHaunting #Supernatural #Unexplained #ChildhoodMemories #GhostEncounter #AfterTheHaunting #TrueParanormal #FearLove real ghost stories?

Do you think about your therapist between sessions? Check their social media? Spiral when they cancel? A licensed therapist explains why attachment to your therapist happens, why it's actually part of the process, and the exact signs that tell you when it's crossed into unhealthy territory. In this episode of Ask Kati Anything, licensed marriage and family therapist Kati Morton breaks down the therapeutic relationship: the single strongest predictor of whether therapy actually works. She answers listener questions about feeling "creepy" for looking up their therapist, why therapy can feel transactional and fake, and what therapists are really noticing about you in session. Then she walks through the attachment ladder, the four stages that explain why your therapist starts to feel like the only person who truly gets you, and closes with a complete checklist of healthy vs. unhealthy therapeutic relationship signs.

The Business Method Podcast: High-Performance & Entrepreneurship
Today, we're diving into a conversation about what happens when financial success is no longer enough. What if building a multi-billion-dollar business is only the beginning? What if true wealth isn't measured by the size of your portfolio, but by the lives you impact? Our guest is Paul Hutchinson, co-founder of Bridge Investment Group, one of the largest real estate investment firms in the United States, managing over $49 billion in assets. Paul helped build Bridge into a real estate powerhouse by mastering capital raising, creating win-win partnerships, assembling elite teams, and navigating some of the most challenging economic environments, including the 2008 financial crisis. But after reaching extraordinary financial success, Paul found himself searching for something more meaningful. That search led him into one of the world's darkest battles: the fight against child trafficking. Over the past decade, Paul has participated in more than 70 undercover rescue missions, helping save approximately 7,000 children from trafficking. His experiences later inspired scenes depicted in Sound of Freedom, which he executive produced. In this conversation, Paul shares the entrepreneurial mindset that helped him build a multi-billion-dollar company before revealing the deeply personal journey that transformed his definition of success. He explains why wealth without purpose left him unfulfilled, how one phone call changed the trajectory of his life forever, and why he now believes that healing trauma, restoring human dignity, and addressing addiction are essential to preventing exploitation before it begins. From raising millions in capital and leading high-performing teams to confronting cartels, overcoming PTSD, and redefining what legacy truly means, this episode explores the intersection of business, purpose, and humanity. Paul also discusses his work with Liberating Humanity, the Child Liberation Foundation, and his upcoming book, Infinite Wealth. It's a powerful conversation about entrepreneurship, service, healing, and the question every leader should eventually ask themselves: What will matter most when you look back on your life?
What if the greatest shift in how you lead, work, and live isn't about learning another skill, but about changing the way your brain experiences the world?Amy sits down with Dr. Dawson Church, award-winning science writer, researcher, and author of Spiritual Intelligence, to explore the growing body of neuroscience revealing that emotional regulation, attention, compassion, and presence are not fixed personality traits. They are trainable capacities that reshape the brain over time.For years, spirituality has often been dismissed as something personal, abstract, or impossible to measure. Dawson challenges that assumption by sharing the research behind the four neural circuits that support spiritual intelligence and why strengthening them can transform everything from workplace performance to relationships and overall wellbeing. Together, Amy and Dawson also unpack why traditional meditation doesn't work for everyone, how evidence-based practices like EFT tapping and Eco Meditation accelerate change, and why cultivating inner awareness may be one of the most practical leadership skills available today.If you've ever wondered whether there's a science behind feeling calmer under pressure, responding with greater compassion, or unlocking more creativity without pushing harder, this conversation offers a compelling new perspective on what becomes possible when we intentionally train the brain that shapes every experience of our lives.Download your free copy of Dr. Dawson Church's The EFT Mini-Manual and bonus EcoMeditation at https://dawsongift.com/Moments That Create Momentum:The Brain You Practice Becomes the Life You Experience: Discover why spiritual intelligence isn't a personality trait you're born with, but a set of neural pathways you can intentionally strengthen.The Four Circuits Behind Calm Under Pressure: Explore how emotional regulation, attention, compassion, and self-awareness shape the way you lead, respond, and connect long before a stressful moment arrives.Why Meditation Doesn't Work for Everyone: Learn why quieting your mind isn't the goal, and how science-backed practices can make inner transformation more accessible.Performance Begins Long Before Productivity: Understand why your greatest breakthroughs may come from changing your internal state instead of pushing yourself to work harder.Training the Brain for Something Bigger Than Success: See how developing spiritual intelligence can shift not only how you perform at work, but how you experience your relationships, purpose, and everyday life.About the Guest:Dr. Dawson Church is an award-winning science writer, researcher, and bestselling author whose work explores the intersection of neuroscience, psychology, and human potential.

Mike Campbell, men's coach and author of Unleash Your Alpha, joins Dr. Tara Perry for a candid conversation on why so many outwardly successful men feel stuck, unfulfilled, and disconnected on the inside. Since 2012, Mike has coached more than 3,000 men across New Zealand, Australia, the UK, and the US, helping business owners, leaders, husbands, and fathers become more confident, emotionally grounded, and connected. Mike shares the heartbreak and loss that launched his own inner work, why the "armor" men build to feel safe ends up weakening them, and the deceptively simple practices he uses to help men slow down, face themselves, and reclaim the lives they actually want. The conversation closes with what men wish women understood, the biggest mistakes men make in marriage, and the power of doing this work alongside other men.KEY TAKEAWAYS(01:52) The iceberg beneath the surface — what successful men who "have it all" are silently struggling with, and why Mike has conversations with men that most men have never had(09:00) "A strength turned up too high is a weakness" — how coping mechanisms become armor, and why the thicker the armor, the thinner the skin underneath(12:17) Mike's origin story — a broken engagement, losing his mother to lung cancer, and the soul-searching that took him from personal trainer to men's coach(15:46) The realization that changed his career: men come with a physical want, but underneath it is an emotional need at the identity level(21:38) The "Trojan horse" approach to self-awareness — why Mike starts with simple, cutting questions like "Do you like yourself? Do you like your life?"(27:00) The 15-minute daily practice Mike gives every client — sitting alone with your thoughts, no music, no distractions — and why the discomfort points you in the right direction(29:40) "The thing I say I want, I don't allow" — why men crave space, peace, and ease but fill every moment, and the movie-watching homework that exposes it(32:59) The Lincoln axe analogy — why slowing down to sharpen the axe beats exhausting yourself cutting the tree down with a bread knife(39:01) Life as a million-piece jigsaw puzzle — why clarity and ownership of your own picture make everything more intentional and meaningful(42:40) What men wish women understood — why having their efforts witnessed, acknowledged, and appreciated is fuel(45:23) The biggest marriage mistakes men make — being emotionally inaccessible, or making their partner their therapist — and why men need other men(48:04) Inside "Hunt and Gather" — Mike's back-country initiation experience in New Zealand, and the irreplaceable power of men doing this work together(52:30) Mike's megaphone message to the men of the world: an invitation to come back home to yourselfIf you're ready to take your healing to the next level, schedule your free consultation with Dr. Tara at: calendly.com/consulttara/consult
This episode is sponosored by Hulu. Stream PRISON BREAK on Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ Internationally. Sarah and Paul discuss Sara's PTSD depiction and the added flashbacks of Gretchen torturing Sara, noting how killing a woman in front of Sara motivates her confrontation with Gretchen. They critique the season's heavy use of torture as a narrative tool that often goes unquestioned, contrasting it with the show's earlier nuance about the justice system. They highlight the emotional ending with Michael holding Roland's hand as he dies as unusually human for the series, discuss Sara returning to doctor mode (including fake surgery props), and analyze Michael's relationship “redirect” from a brain tumor discussion to revealing Gretchen is alive. Fan questions cover playing PTSD (dissociation, fear, professional remove), limited improvisation in intense scenes, and whether Sara's story was sidelined to serve Michael, with Callies noting TV norms of the era while arguing Sara still had a substantial arc.

In this rerelease episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon talks with clinical psychologist and author Dr. Ingrid Clayton about narcissistic abuse, complex trauma, and the long journey toward believing your own experiences. Dr. Clayton shares how growing up within an abusive and gaslighting family system shaped her nervous system, relationships, and sense of self. She explains why emotional abuse can remain hidden for decades, with its effects often mistaken for personal failings, addiction, perfectionism, or an inability to maintain healthy relationships. Brandon and Dr. Clayton discuss complex PTSD, fawning, trauma reenactment, toxic shame, and the painful hope that an abusive or enabling parent will eventually acknowledge the truth. They also explore why familiar relationship dynamics can feel safe to the body, even when those dynamics are harmful.

Join us as we discuss research on mental health and wellbeing in the surgical workforce with Drs. Yang and Collins. The episode explores key findings from recent national surveys showing that nearly one in seven surgeons report suicidal ideation in the past year, with depression, anxiety, and PTSD affecting 15–20% of the surgical population. The conversation highlights protective factors—professional fulfillment, resilience, self-valuation, and connection—while distinguishing between healthy resilience and normalized suffering. Dr. Yang and Dr. Collins discuss systemic barriers including time constraints, out-of-pocket mental health costs, and persistent stigma, alongside actionable institutional interventions: protecting dedicated wellbeing time, establishing peer support and psychological first aid programs, ensuring free mental health access, and expanding research to understand what helps surgeons thrive. The episode emphasizes that self-care is essential to patient safety and invites listeners to become advocates, engage with the literature, and help drive culture change within their institutions.
