Hey Heal Squad! It's Friday, and yes—we fooled them again. With an RGF that starts with Tiny Bubbles and somehow ends with Indiana Jones. Kev and Anne talk shame and how those buried feelings show up—autoimmune, hernia, heartbreak—and why healing starts with telling the truth: “I feel it.” “I see it.” “I'm letting it go.” We talk mindset medicine and how it starts with presence, compassion, and a whole lot less attachment. We talk why some people never get sick and others never get well. We talk how these simple changes led to a coffee shop meet-cute and why a bad cup might just reroute you to your next chapter. Have a great weekend, bye betches. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Heal Squad! We're continuing our theme this week of gut, brain, and emotional healing with this week's throwback with triple board certified physician, Dr. Zach Bush! We knew this was the perfect time to bring back one of our favorite episodes to revisit this week. Dr. Zach doesn't just talk about symptoms, he gets to the real root of disease: disconnection. Disconnection from our bodies, our relationships, our food, our purpose, and even the Earth itself. He shares how trauma, toxins, gut health, and isolation all play a role in why we're sick, PLUS how healing starts when we finally begin to reconnect on every level. Get ready to shift your perspective on health completely. We talk about the power of nature, the soul-body connection, and why your body isn't broken (it's just been overwhelmed). If you're craving deeper healing and ready to get to the why behind what you're feeling… you don't want to miss this one! -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zachbushmd/ Website: https://zachbushmd.com/ ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Michele Cobb chat about Catherine Ho's masterful performance of Susanna Kwan's poignant debut novel. Set in a rain-drenched near-future San Francisco, the story follows Bo, a young elder-care worker who faces uncertainty after her mother's disappearance. When Mia, Bo's centenarian neighbor, offers the solitary Bo a job, she readily accepts. Ho blends dulcet tones and resonance to provide an impressive emotional range that captures Bo's reluctance to live in Canada with her relatives and her transformative friendship with Mia.

In this powerful episode of Beyond Awareness: Disability Awareness That Matters, Diana Pastora Carson is joined by Kristin Wright, Executive Director of Inclusive Practices at the Sacramento County Office of Education. Drawing from her deep personal and professional experiences—as a former California State Director of Special Education and the mother of a daughter with disabilities—Kristin shares her “why” for dedicating her life to the work of inclusion, belonging, and rightful presence. The conversation explores the harmful persistence of the medical model in education, the importance of shifting mindsets from exclusion to rightful presence, and how inclusion must be viewed not as charity, but as a fundamental human right. Kristin also offers candid reflections on systemic ableism, the political threats to essential protections like Medicaid and Section 504, and the urgent need for collective advocacy. This episode is a heartfelt call to action for educators, families, and policymakers to reimagine inclusive education as not only possible, but necessary.

Hey Heal Squad! In Part 2 of our incredible conversation with Dr. Christopher Motley, we're diving deeper into the hidden wisdom of the body and the overlooked signals it's constantly sending us. From ruptured ulcers linked to emotional stress to the healing power of acupressure and organ communication, this episode is packed with ancient practices and practical insights. Maria shares her own experiences using acupressure to relieve symptoms instantly, and Dr. Motley breaks down how organs like the spleen, liver, and bladder reveal dysfunction through symptoms like cracked heels, hip pain, constipation, and more.. PLUS, we explore how trauma is stored in your connective tissue (yup, emotional detox is real!), how environmental stressors like EMFs affect your ability to heal, and why supporting your thyroid, adrenals, and mitochondria is critical for long-term wellness. If you've been chasing symptoms and are ready to finally understand the root of your chronic health issues, tune in and take your healing into your own hands! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Drainage before detox. If your lymphatic and fascia systems are congested, your body can't eliminate toxins like mold, metals, or viruses, no matter how many supplements you take. True healing starts with clearing the exit pathways. Your organs are always listening. Both Dr. Motley and Maria share how speaking directly to their organs during prayer or meditation brought powerful healing shifts… showing the potential of organ communication in Chinese medicine. Acupressure delivers real-time results. From dry lips to back pain and even digestive issues, Maria shares firsthand how pressing specific points taught by her acupuncturist delivered instant relief (sometimes in just one session!) -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram Website Podcast Dr. Motley's Protocols ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

In this unforgettable episode of the Published and Paid Podcast, I went live from the heart of Times Square with none other than Dr. Keena Mosley. We were standing in front of the very billboard that featured her brand-new book, Launch to Impact, and it was a full-circle moment. Dr. Keena is a two-time author and a dynamic leadership strategist with decades of experience in education and executive leadership. We talked about how she took her idea from concept to Times Square in just 20 weeks, the challenges new leaders face, and what it really takes to build confidence, navigate culture, and lead with clarity and impact. If you're an emerging leader, a team lead, or a CEO trying to grow your leadership presence, this episode is a must-listen. Key Takeaways: Leadership often starts early. Dr. Keena shared how her leadership journey began long before her career—even as a child—and how that identity shaped her path. Confidence is key. One of the biggest challenges she sees in developing leaders is a lack of confidence. This book helps leaders find their voice and own their power. You have to study people. Whether you're managing up or leading a team, your job is to study your leaders and your team so you can lead strategically and communicate effectively. Culture already exists—shape it wisely. Don't walk in trying to overhaul everything. Understand the existing culture first, then make changes gradually and with intention. Mentorship should match your season. The mentor who served you in one phase of life may not be who you need now—and that's okay. Choose based on where you're going. Quotes Worth Remembering: “One is always too small a number for greatness.” – Dr. Keena Mosley “Every time your seat changes, the rules change.” – Dr. Keena Mosley “You can't create culture without first understanding it.” – Dr. Keena Mosley “Mentoring is legacy. You can't do it all forever—but you can leave something behind.” – Dr. Keena Mosley Secure your ticket for the 7 Figure Bestseller Summit: https://www.jasminewomack.com/summit Connect with Jasmine: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejasminewomack Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/authorjasminewomack YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thejasminewomack Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejasminewomack Website: https://www.jasminewomack.com Work with Me: Secure your ticket for the 7 Figure Bestseller Summit: https://www.jasminewomack.com/summit Grab a copy of my book - Published and Paid: Write, Self-Publish, and Launch Nonfiction Book in 90 Days or Less: https://www.jasminewomack.com/published-paid-book Apply to the Published and Paid®️ Mastermind: https://www.jasminewomack.com/mastermindapplication

Hey Heal Squad! We're kicking off a fascinating two-part episode with Dr. Christopher Motley, a leading expert in functional kinesiology and Chinese medicine. In Part 1, Dr. Motley opens up about his personal health journey with Lyme disease, and how becoming his own best case study led him to uncover the root causes of chronic illness through energy medicine and frequency healing. He breaks down the hidden reason so many people stay sick: blocked drainage pathways. From EMFs and heavy metals to trapped emotions and mold toxicity, Dr. Motley explains how these invisible stressors overload the body, disrupt your lymphatic system, and stall healing at the deepest level. We also dive into how trauma gets stored in your organs, what viruses like Epstein-Barr have to do with hormone issues and fatigue, and why your body's Qi—your electromagnetic life force—could be the key to real, lasting transformation. If you've tried everything and still feel stuck, this episode will help you finally connect the dots and understand your symptoms in a whole new light. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Drainage is the foundation of healing. Before you detox, your drainage pathways (like the lymphatic system and liver) need to be open. If they're blocked, toxins can't leave the body, and you stay stuck in survival mode. Your body holds emotional memories. Trapped emotions from past trauma can get stored in specific organs, silently contributing to chronic illness, hormone imbalance, and nervous system dysregulation. Mold and metals are hidden saboteurs. Many people with brain fog, fatigue, or mysterious symptoms are dealing with toxic overload from mold exposure or heavy metals—and most don't even know it. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/doctormotley Website: https://www.doctormotley.com/ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ancient-health-podcast/id1493717594 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

This week on Black & Published, Nikesha speaks with Dwight Thompson, author of the novel, My Own Dear People. It's a story about a young man reflecting on the harm he and his friends caused a young teacher while they were in high school and why even as a spectator the protagonist was still a perpetrator. In our conversation, Dwight explains how his own reflection of his boyhood informed the creation of his character. Plus, how telling the truth got his first novel labeled as "too lewd." And, the measurement Dwight uses when writing that lets him know he's on the right track. Mahogany Books Mentioned in this episode:Rate & ReviewThanks for listening, family!

Hey, Heal Squad! Maria's back from her healing trip to the Dominican Republic—and she's got a major update that could shift how you think about your health, your zip code… and even your morning coffee. In this week's episode, Maria and Dr. Alison unpack the shocking truth about how your environment impacts everything from vitamin D production to autoimmunity. After spending months in Connecticut and time in the DR, Maria shares the wild health changes she noticed (including her blood sugar and energy levels) just from getting out of L.A.—plus, the return of a mystery throat symptom she now suspects was linked to air pollution. PLUS, Maria opens up about her emotional birthday moment with Athena, and how she's redefining healing to include joy, play, and the power of being present with the people you love. This one is packed with lightbulb moments (pun intended).

Studios, S.I.R. is a properly melodramatic romance set within the violent arena of collegiate motorcycle jousting. No mortal comic book reader can resist such a setup. Fell Hound delivers heartache, action, villainy, heroism, and lewks. My god, the designs in this comic are truly craveable. Fell Hound wrote and drew everything while Eleonora Bruni provided S.I.R.'s colors with assistance from Freddie Tanto. Becca Carey designed the letters and logo. The new trade paperback from BOOM! is out now. Put your mitts on it. Also, make sure to follow Fell Hound on Instagram and Bluesky. This Week's Sponsor We're sponsored by 2000 AD, the greatest comic you're not reading!

On this Sunday Setup, we set you up with a quiet but meaningful shift: you don't have to own everything you admire. We talk about letting go—the things, the roles, even the applause. Not because they don't matter, but because they don't define you. You can love the car, the house, the title... without needing to possess it. Admiration doesn't always have to end in acquisition. We talk about being seen. Not the spotlight kind—but the simple, human kind. A “thank you,” a glance, a moment of real acknowledgment. It's not about ego. It's about being known. And that's okay to want. It's okay to need. We talk about puppets, too—yes, literal ones—and how even silly things can anchor connection. Whether it's a fuzzy face on a screen or a familiar voice at the end of the day, presence takes many forms. So this week, take stock. What are you holding that could be admired, not carried? And where could you offer— or receive—a little more acknowledgment? Here's to clear eyes, open hands, and a soft place to land. You're seen, Heal Squad. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

The Intuitive Customer - Improve Your Customer Experience To Gain Growth
How do you grow your revenues without upsetting your existing customers? In this episode, Colin Shaw and Professor Ryan Hamilton dive into the new book he has written with Anne Wilson, Senior Lecturer at Wharton. Published by Harvard Business Review Press, the book is called: The Growth Dilemma: Managing Your Brand When Different Customers Want Different Things Available here: https://bit.ly/3ZCN2wD Professor Ryan Hamilton reveal how brand growth often gets derailed not by bad strategy, but by insufficient attention to how your customer segments relate to each other. You may think your audiences are living on separate islands, but spoiler alert: they're not. They're watching each other, seeing what the other does, and sometimes they don't like it and will move elsewhere. From Crocs to Prius to the Bud Light fiasco (and yes, even neo-Nazis in New Balance sneakers), this episode pulls no punches. It's a fast-paced, funny, and brutally honest look at why many brands fail to grow—and how you can avoid becoming the following cautionary tale.

It's Friday and we fooled them again—with an RGF that's part eulogy, part therapy session, and part fuzzy puppet plot twist. We talk a genius who never called himself one. Lyrics like dreams, novels that never saw daylight, and a mind too big for the boxes the world built. He listened, he loved, and he never knew how much he mattered. We talk bricks—the emotional kind. The weight of perfection, shame, and all the stories that said, “not good enough.” We carried them. So did he. Maybe it's time we stop. We talk functional mental patients—our tribe of all-in mental patients. If you say yes before you know what you're saying yes to, welcome. You're one of us. We talk puppet ladies at fan meetups, finger-smashing contractor chaos, and the unexpected healing that comes from demolition, dinner with the locals, and venting to a wheelbarrow. We talk legacy, letting go, and why it's not about the likes (unless we're in 3D). Post the thing. Say the words. Set down a brick. You don't need to carry it anymore. Happy Friday. Hug your Mental Patients. We'll see you Tuesday.

He notes that the main biographies over the years include Fawn Brodie's "No Man Knows My History," Richard Bushman's "Rough Stone Rolling," and works by Dan Vogel,[1] Richard Van Wagoner,[2] and Martha Bradley.[3] Fawn Brodie's "No Man Knows My History": Published in 1945, Brodie's work is recognized for her "fantastic writing"and remarkable achievement given her limited access to sources available today. While now "out of date,"it was incredibly popular, with Richard Bushman himself acknowledging its enduring "perch" as a favorite among readers, perhaps due to Brodie's skills as an English major and great writer. She was technically Mormon but very critical of Joseph Smith. Richard Bushman's "Rough Stone Rolling": Dr. Turner expresses "enormous admiration"for Richard Bushman as a person and scholar. Bushman's biography "expertly contextualizes Joseph's life in the culture of the early 19th century United States"and benefits from tremendous access to sources, though notably, it predates the availability of the Joseph Smith Papers. Over the last two decades, "Rough Stone Rolling" has become the "go-to biography for any scholar or seriously interested party in Joseph Smith.” Bushman's work was seen as a more "faithful perspective" in contrast to Brodie's critical stance. Dan Vogel's Contributions: Dr. Turner highlights Dan Vogel as a "really diligent researcher"whose "Early Mormon Documents collection"[4] was an "essential resource for historians"before the Joseph Smith Papers. Vogel's works, including "Joseph Smith, The Making of a Prophet" and "Charisma Under Pressure," mark him as "one of the more significant historians of Mormonism" in this generation. While his books may not have achieved the wide readership of Brodie's or Bushman's, their scholarly value is undeniable. Dr. Turner clarifies that he didn't write his biography because existing ones were "inadequate" or "stink.” Instead, he aimed to write a "different one" that might be "better or does justice to different parts of Joseph's personality.” His approach involved immersing himself in the sources, particularly the Joseph Smith Papers volumes and website, and reading the latest scholarship, rather than directly positioning his work against others. He trusted there would be "room for my perspective from my position.” Unpacking Joseph Smith's Early Life When discussing Joseph Smith's early life, Dr. Turner notes a significant challenge: "we know very little" about the period before 1829. Scarcity of Sources: Most of what is known comes from a small number of sources, or at least only a few that detail events. Lucy Mack Smith's Biography: While a "great source,"Lucy Mack Smith's dictated biography from 1844 (decades after many events) is often the "only source we have to go on,"which presents a "little troublesome" limitation. Joseph Smith's Own Accounts: Joseph himself did not discuss his childhood in any great depth in his histories, only occasionally alluding to it in sermons. Conflicting Recollections: Early accounts of Joseph from Palmyra were often "filed up and divergent," coming from individuals who "were not too impressed with Joseph Smith and his family.” No Prefigured Greatness: Dr. Turner emphasizes that "there was nothing that pr...
Hey Heal Squad! We're continuing the theme of gut-brain health and bringing back an amazing 2 part episode with the brilliant Dr. Will Cole! In the first part of our conversation, we're talking all about the emotional roots of our eating patterns and how food guilt, shame, and emotional triggers can sabotage both your health and happiness. Dr. Cole breaks down how our relationship with food is often shaped by trauma, cultural messaging, and emotional dysregulation—and how healing your gut can also help heal your brain and your inner world. We explore everything from cortisol overload and blood sugar swings to why your nervous system plays a bigger role in digestion than you think. If you've ever felt stuck in a cycle of restriction, bingeing, or guilt after eating, this episode will help you understand what's really going on beneath the surface (and how to finally reclaim peace in your body and mind).

Hey Heal Squad! We're diving into the delicious side of healing this week with psychiatrist and nutritional wellness pioneer Dr. Drew Ramsey! Let's just say, this convo might completely change how you think about food and your brain… Dr. Ramsey breaks down how what we eat directly impacts anxiety, depression, and brain fog—and how simple nutrient upgrades can supercharge your mental health. We talk about dopamine, gut-brain connection, why your serotonin might be stuck, and what to do when anxiety makes you feel like you're spiraling. Plus, we get into “brain food swaps” (yes, even for sugar and coffee), why magnesium is underrated, and the powerful foods that can actually help you heal—like seafood, dark chocolate, and yes… even certain carbs.If you're ready to feed your mind AND feel better in your body, you're gonna love this one! -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox DR DREW RAMSEY RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drewramseymd/?hl=en Website: https://drewramseymd.com/ ‘Healing The Modern Brain' Book: https://go.shopmy.us/p-19597042 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
