Happy Sunday, Heal Squad! Kev kicks this one off with some music nostalgia (The Kinks, The Monkees, and a few Hall of Fame hot takes) before getting into something bigger… timing, letting go, and trusting that things happen when they're supposed to. From watching Maria step into this next chapter with the Heal Squad Reset, to stories from his own career (being early on podcasting, seeing the world catch up later), it all points to the same idea: you can't force what isn't ready yet. There's also a deeper layer around healing, why holding onto emotional weight can impact everything from your health to your success… and how the real shift might not be digging deeper, but actually learning how to let go. A little perspective for the week ahead, and a reminder: trust the timing, and don't force it. Talk shawtly!

Happy Potluck Saturday, Heal Squad! This one starts in old Hollywood, Greta Garbo disappearing at the height of her fame (but secretly knowing exactly what she was doing), Oscars past vs. present, and why movies just don't seem to hit the same anymore… even though Kev shouts out a few recent ones he actually loved (Song Sung Blue, Nuremberg, the Clooney film)! How the whole system really works, the politics behind Oscar wins, why so many recent films feel forgettable, and the realization that Hollywood might not matter the way it used to. Kev gets into what's actually changing: audiences splintering, old entertainment shows quietly disappearing, AI starting to creep in, and why the people who are still thriving (Stallone, Taylor Sheridan) are the ones who create, not just perform. And for anyone trying to “make it” in the arts… the hard truth: you don't do it for the money anymore. You do it because you love it, you learn everything, and you adapt to what's coming next. A little nostalgia, a little reality check, and a very honest look at where things are headed. Talk shawtly!

Happy Friday, Heal Squad! It's a Lonely Guy Friday: St. Patrick's Day Week edition… and Kev takes us from holiday energy and Boston traditions into one of his wildest Kev-on-the-Scene stories yet. What starts with St. Patty's Day nostalgia (parades, opening day, people coming back to life) turns into a full-blown storytime from the Caribbean Festival in Boston, a chaotic, dangerous event with fights, gangs, disappearing police, and one unforgettable escape plan that somehow gets everyone out safely. Underneath the insanity is something real: how people in power can treat others like they don't matter, why trusting your instincts can save you, and how staying calm under pressure can make all the difference when things go sideways. Classic LGF storytelling, a little nostalgia, a little chaos, and a reminder to look out for each other along the way. Bye Betches!

Hey Heal Squad! It's Throwback Thursday and we're bringing back a conversation with hormone expert Alisa Vitti that so many of you still ask about, especially when it comes to perimenopause, menopause, and feeling “off” in your body. Maria and Alisa get into what's really happening with your hormones during these phases (from energy dips and mood swings to brain fog, weight changes, and sleep issues) and why so many women are told it's “just part of aging” when it doesn't have to be. Alisa also breaks down how your cycle (and the loss of it) impacts how you should be eating, working out, and structuring your day, and why doing the same routine every day can actually work against you. Plus, simple shifts to start supporting your body in a way that actually makes you feel better. It's a really eye-opening conversation that will help you understand your body on a much deeper level!

Growing up in the Salinas Valley of Northern California, John Steinbeck dreamed of becoming a professional writer. In his youth he took on odd jobs and worked amongst ranch hands and migrant workers, who would inspire some of his greatest work, including The Grapes of Wrath. Published in 1939, the book captured the struggles of everyday Americans during the Great Depression, and Steinbeck became famous for his empathetic portrayal of the working class.Steinbeck would go on to become one of the most decorated authors of the 20th Century, winning the Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize for Literature, but he was plagued by marital struggles and chronic illness that threatened to cut short his writing career.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hey Heal Squad! We are back with Jeannie Mai and this time things get peri-personal…see what we did there? But seriously…if you've ever wanted someone to break down perimenopause in the simplest, most honest way, this episode is for you. Jeannie opens up to Maria about the moment she realized something was changing in her body. Things like disrupted sleep, forgetfulness. brain fog and dips in confidence. She shares how confusing the symptoms can feel and why so many women end up misdiagnosed when hormones are actually the root cause. We also talk about Jeannie's new docu-series Balance on Apple TV and how it's helping lift the lid on what women really need to know about perimenopause. She also shares where she stands on dating right now and what she hopes men will understand about what women are going through during perimenopause. If you're a woman in your 30s, 40s, or beyond ….or you just want to better understand what the women in your life may be experiencing… this is one conversation you definitely don't want to miss. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Perimenopause symptoms are often misunderstood: Things like brain fog, insomnia, forgetfulness, mood changes, and confidence dips can all be linked to hormonal shifts. Many women are misdiagnosed instead of having their hormones evaluated: Symptoms are sometimes labeled as depression or anxiety when the root issue may actually be hormonal imbalance. Education around hormones is empowering: Understanding options like HRT & watching a docu-series like Balance on Apple TV can help women navigate this phase with more clarity.

In this episode, we review key updates from the 2026 AHA/ASA Guideline for the Early Management of Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke, including changes to IV thrombolysis, antiplatelet therapy, endovascular treatment, blood pressure goals, and glycemic goals. Key Concepts Tenecteplase (TNKase) is now equally preferred to alteplase (Activase) by the 2026 AHA/ASA guidelines. Tenecteplase has several advantages related to administration and the risk of medication errors. IV thrombolysis can be given in selected patients up to 9 hours after stroke symptom onset depending on brain imaging findings. Patients with symptom onset less than 4.5 hours are still eligible for IV thrombolysis regardless of brain imaging findings. IV thrombolysis should not be given for mild, non-disabling stroke symptoms. A "non-disabling" stroke means the symptoms do not impair activities of daily living or ability to return to work. The criteria for dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has been updated. DAPT can be given for NIHSS of 4 or 5 (not just 3 or less) and can be started up to 72 hours after stroke onset (not just within 24 hours).

Varroa mites are the most destructive parasite affecting honey bee colonies worldwide. In this Bee Science Short, Dr. Dewey Caron explains how Varroa destructor reproduces, spreads within colonies, and why understanding the mite's biology is essential for modern beekeeping. Female Varroa mites enter brood cells shortly before they are capped and reproduce alongside the developing bee. Inside the sealed cell, mites feed on the developing bee and produce offspring that emerge with the young adult bee. Because the mite's reproductive cycle is closely tied to brood production, populations can increase rapidly during the active season. Beyond direct feeding damage, Varroa mites also spread viruses that weaken colonies and shorten the lifespan of worker bees. Dewey explains why unchecked mite populations can quickly overwhelm a colony if they are not monitored and managed. For beekeepers, the key is awareness. Regular monitoring allows beekeepers to track mite levels and respond before populations reach damaging levels. Understanding the biology of Varroa helps beekeepers make informed decisions about management strategies and colony health. This episode is part of the Bee Science with Dewey series, where Dr. Caron shares practical explanations of honey bee biology to help beekeepers better understand what is happening inside their colonies.

In this episode, I break down the real meaning behind Published and Paid and why it was never just about writing a book and getting paid from that one product alone.I share how this brand evolved from my experience serving hundreds of authors and realizing that most people needed more than publishing support. They needed a monetization strategy for their intellectual property.I walk through how I think about publishing in a much broader way: books, content, speeches, courses, coaching programs, curriculum, launches, and digital products all come from my ideas, my frameworks, and my expertise. This episode is really about expanding how I see my own authority and how I build a business around it.In this episode, The Evolution of Published and Paid, I covered:→ how I originally coined Published and Paid→ why the brand evolved out of my publishing business→ the monetization gap I saw with authors→ why publishing is bigger than a physical book→ how I define intellectual property in business→ why content, speeches, curriculum, and digital products are all forms of publishing→ how I package ideas into frameworks that create results→ why this podcast talks about books, speaking, launches, and more→ what I want Published and Paid to mean moving forwardWhether you're a coach, author, consultant, or business owner, this episode helps me think bigger about how I package my expertise. If I have ideas, frameworks, lived experience, and solutions that help people get results, then I have intellectual property. And if I have intellectual property, I have more than one path to authority, visibility, and revenue.Takeaways:• I need to expand my definition of publishing• My book is not the only expression of my expertise• My ideas become assets when I package them intentionally• Intellectual property can be monetized across multiple formats• Published and Paid is a full business ecosystem, not a single product• The goal is to turn expertise into impact, systems, and revenueSound Bites:• “Published and Paid was never just about writing a book and getting paid for it.”• “Every time I package an idea and put it out publicly, I am publishing.”• “My intellectual property should create more than one stream of value.”• “My book is one format, not the whole business.”• “Published and Paid is about turning my expertise into assets that pay me.”

Published as a 47-page pamphlet in colonial America on January 10, 1776, Common Sense challenged the authority of the British government and the royal monarchy. The elegantly plain and persuasive language that Thomas Paine used touched the hearts and minds of the average American and was the first work to openly ask for political freedom and independence from Great Britain. Paine’s powerful words came to symbolize the spirit of the Revolution itself. General George Washington had it read to his troops.

More and more websites that position themselves as news outlets are serving up what observers call AI slop. Last month, a Surrey-based site published false information about mayoral candidate William Azaroff, and an AI-generated picture of a real murder victim.

Hey Heal Squad! What happens when two moms in their 40s look back at their 20-year-old selves? Let's just say…there's a lot of reflection, a lot of honesty, and a whole lot of “wow!” And honestly, this conversation couldn't be more perfect for Women's History Month. Today, Maria's longtime friend, Emmy Award–winning host, producer, and entrepreneur Jeannie Mai joins her in the studio for a real, heart-to-heart conversation about motherhood, womanhood and boundaries. They talk about how coming up in the entertainment industry in their 20s meant being open, friendly, and eager to please … and how both of them learned later in life that without boundaries, that openness can leave you vulnerable. Jeannie shares how everything shifted for her in her 40s, and why she's now teaching her daughter Monaco about confidence and self-protection early (even through jiu-jitsu!). Maria also gives a little Heal Squad insider moment about why she's raising her daughter Athena mostly sugar-free  and how her family history with diabetes completely shaped that decision. We love how deep this episode gets about breaking generational patterns, protecting your peace, and raising daughters who know their worth. Enjoy, Heal Squad! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Boundaries create confidence: Maria and Jeannie share how learning to set boundaries in their 40s changed their confidence, safety, and sense of personal power. Raise daughters to trust themselves: Both moms are teaching their girls self-protection, confidence, and how to speak up for themselves. Healthy habits start early: Maria explains why she's raising Athena with very little sugar to build a strong foundation and prevent future health issues.

Happy Sunday, Heal Squad! After yesterday's conversation about the three questions successful people ask before making big decisions, Kev goes down another rabbit hole… this time exploring two powerful questions Tony Robbins uses to uncover the role we learned to play in childhood! The discussion dives into how many of us unknowingly become the achiever, caretaker, peacemaker, or comedian in our families… and how those roles can quietly shape the decisions we make for the rest of our lives. Kev and Anne share some personal reflections about family dynamics, why some of us become the “fixer” or the “responsible one,” and the bigger question: is the role you learned as a kid still serving you, or running your life? Plus a few classic Sunday Setup tangents along the way… from silent meditation retreats to Easter candy and, of course, a little wrestling history. Talk shawtly!

This week Chris and Jamal dig into a packed episode full of Wayfarer news, hot takes, and a lot of common-sense discussion. They cover the fix for the Pokémon GO nomination spacebar bug, the nearby map issue, Niantic Spatial pausing OPR and retiring Overclock, and the arrival of Wayfarer nomination drafts—an update they both see as one of the biggest quality-of-life improvements Wayfarer has had in a long time. The main topic asks a bold question: what if Pokémon GO removed the ability to nominate POIs in-game and pushed all nominations through the Wayfarer website instead? What starts as a spicy hot take turns into a thoughtful conversation about better onboarding, higher-quality nominations, clearer expectations, and reducing the constant confusion from players who think they are nominating PokéStops instead of submitting Wayspots to Niantic's larger database. Chris and Jamal weigh the pros and cons, from better education and fewer junk nominations to the risk of losing casual contributors and slowing map growth. They also talk about whether Wayfarer may be entering a post-backlog era, with eMiLy filtering out more coal, review areas feeling wider, and nominations moving faster than ever. From there, they jump into a fun “One's Gotta Go” debate featuring Pokémon, Mario, Call of Duty, and EA Sports, before wrapping up with two great Wayspots of the Week and a Coal of the Week that serves as a reminder that even a beautiful mural is still ineligible if it sits on K-12 school property. https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/t/whats-the-point-of-having-pokemon-go-if-my-nomination-wont-show-up-in-game/108679 Stick around for: ✅ Spatial / Scopely News ✅ One's Gotta Go ✅ Wayspots / Coal of the Week ✅ Dad Jokes (of course!)

Happy Potluck Saturday, Heal Squad! Kev kicks things off with some nostalgic throwbacks… from Bay City Rollers music to the old days when parks and woods were the place everyone gathered on weekend nights. But the conversation quickly turns into something surprisingly thought-provoking after Kev shares a clip about three questions successful people ask before making big decisions. Why saying yes to one opportunity often means saying no to another, and the balance between thinking things through vs. just jumping in and figuring it out along the way. Kev also shares some behind-the-scenes stories from his career about opportunities people walked away from, and how sometimes the biggest successes come from simply being willing to say yes. Talk shawtly!

Happy Regular Guy Friday, Heal Squad! This episode starts with Morrissey nostalgia, music memories from the MTV era, and a Kev-on-the-Scene story about meeting Morrissey that quickly turns into a lesson about confidence, credibility, and how you approach people in life. From there we get into a fascinating experiment about perception…how people often see exactly what they expect to see and why adopting a victim mindset can quietly shape the reality you experience. Kev shares a few Boston stories along the way, from mob figures to tough bosses, all landing on the same realization: even the roughest people usually have a moment of humanity somewhere in them. Perception, perspective, and the reminder that what you look for in the world… you often find. Bye Betches!

Hey Heal Squad! It's Throwback Thursday, and today we're going back to a conversation where Maria shares what she's been learning on her meditation journey, and some of the breakthroughs that completely shifted how she thinks about stress, fear, and where we put our energy. After diving deep into Dr. Joe Dispenza's work, Maria realized how much of our energy gets pulled into the past, worries about the future, and everyday stress… leaving almost no space to actually create the life we want. In this episode she talks about the power of being present, how our thoughts affect our health and nervous system, and why protecting your energy might be one of the most important things you can do for your future. It's a really honest look at the mindset shifts she was working through, and a reminder that where you focus your energy matters more than you might think.

What if everything we've been taught about illness only tells half the story? In this episode, Darin dives into one of the most controversial debates in the history of modern medicine: germ theory versus terrain theory. While conventional medicine focuses on identifying pathogens and eliminating them, terrain theory asks a deeper question, why do some people get sick while others exposed to the same pathogen remain perfectly healthy? Tracing the history from Louis Pasteur and Antoine Béchamp to the economic forces that shaped the modern medical system, Darin explores how our internal biological environment, our terrain, may be the real determining factor in health and disease. From cellular voltage and mitochondrial function to microbiome diversity, inflammation, nutrition, toxins, and stress physiology, the science increasingly points toward one central truth: health is shaped by the environment inside the body. Most importantly, Darin breaks down the practical pillars of terrain optimization, simple but powerful daily choices that strengthen resilience, support immunity, and restore the body's natural balance. What You'll Learn The historical battle between germ theory and terrain theory Why exposure to pathogens does not automatically lead to disease The role of Louis Pasteur, Antoine Béchamp, and Claude Bernard in shaping modern medicine How the Flexner Report of 1910 reshaped medical education and marginalized holistic medicine Why modern healthcare often focuses on pathogens instead of the body's internal environment The importance of cellular voltage and mitochondrial health in disease prevention How the microbiome influences immunity, metabolism, and inflammation The surprising connection between vitamin D levels and immune resilience Why chronic inflammation is a central driver of modern diseases How stress, toxins, sleep, and nutrition shape the body's terrain The science behind grounding, sunlight, and circadian rhythm regulation Practical strategies for optimizing your internal terrain and strengthening resilience Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to the SuperLife podcast and the mission of building health sovereignty 00:00:33 – Sponsor: reducing plastic waste with Bite toothpaste tablets 00:02:47 – Introduction to today's topic: germ theory vs terrain theory 00:03:10 – Why Darin began exploring this controversial health debate years ago 00:03:54 – What if everything we've been taught about illness is only half the story? 00:04:35 – How our internal biological environment shapes disease susceptibility 00:05:10 – The importance of optimizing the body's internal terrain 00:06:00 – Looking back to the 1800s: the scientific battle that shaped modern medicine 00:06:17 – Louis Pasteur and the rise of germ theory 00:07:20 – The successes of germ theory: antibiotics, vaccines, and sterilization 00:08:01 – Antoine Béchamp and the foundation of terrain theory 00:08:45 – The concept of microbial polymorphism and environmental adaptation 00:09:40 – When microbes become pathogenic in weakened terrain 00:10:00 – Pasteur's alleged deathbed admission: "The microbe is nothing, the terrain is everything" 00:10:45 – Claude Bernard and the concept of the internal environment 00:11:00 – The Flexner Report and the restructuring of American medical education 00:11:45 – How holistic and integrative medical schools were shut down 00:12:30 – The rise of the pharmaceutical-centered medical model 00:13:00 – Why modern doctors often receive little training in nutrition 00:13:45 – The consequences of a pathogen-centered healthcare system 00:14:00 – How economic interests influenced the trajectory of medicine 00:14:20 – Sponsor: Manna Vitality mineral support and cellular optimization 00:16:11 – The science of terrain and how it shows up across multiple disciplines 00:16:47 – Bioelectricity and the role of cellular voltage in health 00:17:20 – The transmembrane potential and healthy cellular voltage levels 00:17:50 – Otto Warburg's discovery of low oxygen environments in cancer cells 00:18:30 – Dr. Jerry Tennant's research on voltage and chronic disease 00:19:00 – The microbiome revolution in modern science 00:19:30 – Why the body contains roughly 38 trillion microbial cells 00:20:00 – How gut bacteria influence immune response 00:20:30 – Research showing microbiome diversity affects viral susceptibility 00:21:00 – Why exposure to pathogens does not always result in illness 00:21:30 – The role of nutrition, sleep, and stress in immune resilience 00:21:55 – Vitamin D deficiency as a major predictor of disease severity 00:22:30 – Chronic inflammation as the root of modern disease 00:23:00 – Mitochondria: the cellular energy system 00:23:40 – How mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to chronic illness 00:24:00 – The connection between nutrient availability and mitochondrial health 00:24:30 – The pillars of terrain optimization 00:25:00 – Why minerals are foundational for cellular health 00:25:30 – Magnesium deficiency and inflammatory disease 00:26:00 – Building a mineral-rich diet for optimal physiology 00:26:20 – Invitation to the SuperLife Patreon community 00:27:55 – Supporting the microbiome through diet and lifestyle 00:28:20 – Why dietary diversity increases microbial resilience 00:29:00 – The importance of sunlight, grounding, and circadian rhythm 00:30:00 – Sleep and the brain's detoxification system 00:31:00 – Environmental toxins and the body's detox pathways 00:31:45 – Stress physiology and its destructive impact on the terrain 00:33:00 – Rebuilding resilience through lifestyle choices 00:34:00 – Final thoughts on reclaiming control over your health 00:35:17 – Closing message and end of episode Thank You to Our Sponsors Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

Without the right internal conditions, the spark simply goes out. But when the terrain is depleted—when our bodies are stressed, inflamed, nutrient deficient, and toxic—that same spark can ignite disease. The power we have is in shaping the terrain every single day." Bibliography/Sources: Bai, Y., Ocampo, J., Jin, G., Chen, S., Benet-Martínez, V., Monroy, M., Anderson, C., & Keltner, D. (2021).

If you're launching a podcast (or have one already) and are not sure how it can hit your bottom line, book a meeting with Jason: https://meetings-eu1.hubspot.com/jason-bradwell/youtube-meeting-link 56,000 YouTube views, 4,500 podcast downloads, and 2,500 subscribers built from scratch — all in 34 working days. Here is exactly how Pipe Dream got there and what still needs fixing. Around day 40 of the Pipe Dream 100-episode daily publishing challenge, Jason Bradwell pulls back the curtain on the real performance data — the wins, the gaps, and the specific changes the team is making to close them. This is an honest, unfiltered look at what it takes to run a high-frequency owned media programme as a B2B agency while simultaneously delivering that same service for clients. Jason breaks down the full content distribution stack: daily publishing on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, personal LinkedIn, and brand LinkedIn, supported by a modest five-pound-per-episode advertising budget on YouTube. He shares why that paid push was necessary to escape a cold start on a brand new channel and what the experiment of pulling it back will reveal about organic content resonance. On LinkedIn, an important early finding is emerging: long-form video cuts of seven to eight minutes are generating 20 to 30% more engagement than 60-second short clips. That insight is shifting the team's distribution strategy significantly, with native LinkedIn publishing of longer episodes now taking priority over driving audiences off-platform. Jason also addresses where the programme needs work: tighter episode structure using a four-act case study format, more consistent personal LinkedIn promotion across all 12,000 followers, and better packaging through stronger thumbnail design and more compelling opening hooks. Key Takeaways ◼️ How to build a YouTube audience from zero using modest per-episode ad spend to break through cold-start friction ◼️ Why publishing long-form native video on LinkedIn outperforms short clips by 20 to 30% in B2B engagement ◼️ How to use a four-act case study structure to keep every guest episode tight, tactical and under 20 minutes ◼️ Why consistent personal LinkedIn distribution matters more than production volume if you want owned media to drive pipeline ◼️ How to use a daily publishing programme as a test bed for packaging, promotion and format experiments you can apply to client work ◼️ Why thumbnail quality and the first 60 seconds of every episode are the highest-leverage production investments on YouTube Chapter Markers 00:00 Intro 00:30 Why Pipe Dream exists and what it replaced 01:45 The goals (and non-goals) behind 100 daily episodes 02:30 The numbers: downloads, views, subscribers and followers 04:00 How the content is being promoted and distributed 05:10 Why the YouTube ad spend makes sense at this stage 06:00 LinkedIn strategy: why long-form is winning over shorts 07:30 Episode structure and the four-act guest format 08:45 New content formats: industry reaction and news commentary 09:15 Thumbnail and hook quality: practising what we preach 11:00 The bottom line after 35 episodes Relevant Links and Resources Pipe Dream Listen on Podbean: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-detail/bac4p-2a0121/Pipe-Dream-%7C-A-B2B-Marketing-PodcastWatch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@b2bbetter What's Next If this episode gave you a clearer picture of what a high-frequency owned media programme actually looks like in practice, subscribe and leave a review wherever you are listening — it genuinely helps the show reach more B2B marketers who need to hear this.

Hey Heal Squad! In this Heal in 20, longevity expert and Blue Zones founder Dan Buettner breaks down what people are getting completely wrong about living longer. From the obsession with protein and supplements to the endless stream of “longevity hacks,” Dan explains why the real secrets to a longer life are actually much simpler than the wellness industry wants you to believe. Drawing from decades of research studying the world's longest-living populations, Dan reveals what people in Blue Zones actually eat, how their environments shape healthy habits, and why things like social connection, daily movement, and purpose matter far more than the latest health trend. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by all the conflicting wellness advice out there, this conversation will help you cut through the noise and focus on the habits that truly support a longer, healthier life.

Kenneth Batcheldor was a British clinical psychologist who, during the final two decades of his life, investigated the paranormal through direct experiments in table-turning. The final fruit of that work was an essay, compiled from Batcheldor's notebooks by Patric Giesler, entitled “Notes on the Elusiveness Problem in Relation to a Radical View of Paranormality.” Published in the Journal of the American Society for Psychical Research in 1994, it remained unknown to JF and Phil until Shannon Taggart called their attention to it quite recently. Since the theory Batcheldor presents here with admirable lucidity is deeply attuned to ideas they have been discussing on Weird Studies for nearly a decade, they decided to devote an episode to it. The core idea is by far the weirdest of all—in a sense, it is the weird itself. Read Batcheldor's essay on the Weird Studies Patreon. Visit Weirdosphere to enroll in Phil's upcoming 5-week course, "A Musical Tarot." Pierre-Yves Martel's Weird Studies: Volume 3 will be available for preorder on March 13.

Hey Heal Squad! What do you do when life changes in an instant? Today we're finding out from someone who knows exactly what that feels like: Amy Purdy. Amy is a three-time Paralympic medalist, professional snowboarder, motivational speaker, and author. Her new book Bounce Forward: 21 Tools to Live a Life Beyond Limits (out April 14th) not only details Amy's fight for her life at 19, when bacterial meningitis left her with a 2% chance of survival and led to the loss of both of her legs, but also the devastating health crisis years later that once again threatened her mobility. But instead of letting those moments define her limits, Amy rebuilt her life using the same mindset tools she now shares in Bounce Forward. Amy opens up about the mindset shifts that helped her move from survival to strength, including the power of visualization, and learning how to stay fully present when life feels overwhelming (like not being able to be on a snowboard for the past 7 years!). With the Paralympics happening right now, this conversation is a powerful reminder of the determination, resilience, and gold-medal mindset it takes to rise again when the odds feel stacked against you. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Visualization can support both performance and healing: Amy used daily visualization, imagining snowboarding, and running again, to help her body recover during her most difficult medical battles. Your relationship with your body matters: One of Amy's most powerful practices is shifting from criticizing the body to appreciating it, even writing letters of gratitude to the body for everything it continues to do.

What if workplace conflict is not something to avoid, but the very path to healing and high performance? In this episode, Susan Winchester shares how a 36-year corporate HR career evolved into a purpose-driven executive coaching and consulting practice focused on emotional intelligence, leadership effectiveness, and workplace healing. Susan served in senior HR leadership roles for global organizations including Kellogg's, Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, Rockwell Automation, and Applied Materials. After retiring from corporate life at 60, she transitioned into her own consulting and executive coaching practice, helping C-suite leaders and organizations transform workplace dynamics through her proprietary frameworks.

Most of us don't realize which one we're on." - Susan Winchester "Perfectionism looks like excellence from the outside. Inside, it can be desperation." - Susan Winchester CONNECT WITH SUSAN WINCHESTER

Hey Heal Squad! Ready for more simple life hacks to help your week flow a little easier? Maria is back with another What Worked This Week, and she has 4 small shifts that made a big difference this week! First up, boundaries (especially when it comes to texting!) If you've ever felt that little flash of annoyance when your phone keeps buzzing, it might not actually be the person. It might just mean you need an easy boundary. Maria has a simple “3-text rule” that can help prevent this kind of overwhelm to protect your peace. Trust us, it's a good one! Next, a simple nervous system reset anyone can do: an Epsom salt bath with baking soda. It's a calming “twofer” that can relax your muscles and do wonders for your skin too. Be sure to take notes.Then we're talking about the magic of getting to bed early. When Maria prioritizes earlier nights, she notices it creates more runway for quality sleep and this has seriously been helping during perimenopause, where rest can be unpredictable. She's also sharing a few easy tricks that help signal the body it's time to wind down… including one red light hack. Finally, something that's been deeply grounding this week: faith, gratitude, and community. Maria opens up about how going to church has refreshed her spirit and helped her reconnect with what really matters. She also shares one simple morning practice that can help create that same sense of spiritual connection and gratitude in your own life.As always, take what resonates, leave what doesn't, and hopefully one of these little shifts can help your week feel just a bit lighter.

Happy Potluck Saturday, Heal Squad! Today we bounce from classic TV nostalgia (The Greatest American Hero, theme songs you never forget) to Broadway clips and Paul Lynde… and somehow land on a bigger conversation about friendships. What happens when your life starts changing but the people around you expect the old version of you? Why pursuing your goals can quietly trigger people who were comfortable when you were smaller. And how friendships built around shared environments don't always survive personal growth. Kev shares the hard rule he learned chasing his dream: everything in your day has to support it. Not perfectly. But intentionally. Because half measures rarely get you where you want to go. Plus a new concept for handling tricky relationships: the “coffee and a crawler” conversation.

Trolls in Scandinavian folklore can be a little different from what’s imagined in the rest of the world.  We begin our show with a montage of clips from recent movies, Trollhunter (2010), Troll (2022), and Troll 2 (2025) — the latter two being Netflix productions that have rekindled interest in the subject while reimagining trollsin a way that does not always conform to the folklore. While all Scandinavian countries have their share of troll lore, this episode focuses specifically on Norway, the country with the most compelling collection of troll folklore. The first portion of our show looks at the Norwegian writer Henrik Ibsen’s play along with  incidental music composed for the play by his associate Edvard Grieg. Introducing this topic is a clip from the 1970 musical Song of Norway, a fanciful Edvard Grieg biopic that garnered particularly bad reviews.  We learn a bit about why Grieg hated his well-known “Hall of the Mountain King,” a composition which accompanies Peer Gynt’s encounter with trolls inside a mountain in the Dovre mountain chain. We also learn what Ibsen hoped to achieve in telling the story of his antihero Peer Gynt, and how he wrestled with the movement known in Norway as Romantic Nationalism. Next we look at two figures integral to this movement, Peter Christen Asbjørnsen and Jørgen Moe, a pair of folktale collectors often described as the “Brothers Grimm of Norway.”  Their 1841 publication, Norwegian Folk-Tales, along with updated volumes published in 1844, 1845, and  1871, provide most all the troll tales with examine in this episode. An exception to this is a book authored by Asbjørnsen alone, High Mountain Scenes, volume 2, Reindeer Hunt at Rondane. Published sometime before 1846, it’s the only volume referencing tales told about Peer Gynt, those being very loosely represented in Ibsen’s play. Asbjørnsen & Moe’s “Norwegian Folk Tales” The first of these we retell concerns a creature known as “the Bøyg,” something referred to as a type of troll in the story is described more  as a giant serpent of sorts. We follow this with more Peer Gynt episodes involving male trolls flirting with human females and a troll poking his enormous nose through a cabin window and suffering the consequences inflicted by Gynt.  The final story, “The Cat on the Dovre-Mountain,” takes place at Christmas, a time when troll encounters are particularly prevalent, and involves Gynt outsmarting a group of bothersome trolls via a peculiar stratagem. Next, we run through some lesser-known details of the best-known troll tale “The Three Billygoats Gruff.”  We follow this with another well-known (in Norway) story, “The Boy Who Had an Eating Match with a Troll.” It involves a youth outwitting a troll with a particularly gruesome ruse It was familiar enough to Norwegian audiences to be referenced in Trollhunter. Next we look at a character Askeladden, who is pitted against trolls in several of Asbjørnsen & Moe's stories.  He’s usually describing the good-for-nothing youngest brother of a trio, an underdog who surprisingly achieves great things. His name (literally “ash lad”) referenes his stay-at home habits, in particular, sitting by the hearth playing in the ashes. We learn of several characters with related names and habits in Scandinavian literature and a more insultingly rude nickname for such characters, one which Asbjørnsen & Moe chose to censor from their stories. Theodor Kittlesen, “Troll Pondering How Old iIt Is” (1911) Our next troll tale, “The Lads who Met the Trolls in the Hedale Woods,” gives us particularly monstrous trio of trolls sharing a single eyeball.  While this is atypical, we also encounter here the common trope of trolls sniffing the air for “Christian blood,” a suggestion that their kind of an older pre-Christian order.  A reference to trolls using magic is also contained in this story, something we’ll run into in other tales. We then hear some clips from a couple of Asbjørnsen & Moe-inspired films, the 2017 Norwegian film Ash Lad: In the Hall of the Mountain King and its 2019 follow-up, The Ash Lad: In Search of the Golden Castle.  The “Golden Castle” in Norwegian film title and  the title  of the relevant Asbjørnsen & Moe story is “Soria Moria Castle.” This one also features trolls, but in a peripheral role.  It’s a longer legend quest rather than a short folk tale in which we encounter three multi-headed trolls holding human women captive in three different castles. Our last story, “The Hen is Trips in the Mountain,” takes its  weird title from a strange phrase uttered to open a door into a mountain, like “Open Sesame.” When a young woman enters theis particular mountain looking for a lost hen, she meets an unpleasant end, as does her younger sister, but when the youngest of the three enters, she manages not to repeat the mistakes of her two siblings and later discovers that trolls can explode when touched by the first rays of dawn (as well as turning to stone, another common folklore trope). We wrap up the show with some interesting stats regarding the fascination trolls exert over the heavy metal subculture. Theodor Kittlesen, “Mountain Troll” (1887)    

Happy Regular Guy Friday, Heal Squad! This week starts with Musical Youth nostalgia and how MTV once had the power to turn a random music video into a global hit… something that might feel familiar in the TikTok era. Kev shares a classic Kev-on-the-Scene story from his MTV days: navigating a difficult head writer, getting shut down in the writers' room, and the moment he stopped playing by someone else's rules… leading to an opportunity writing short films for Jenny McCarthy and eventually running the show. We talk resilience, Hollywood politics, and why sometimes the path forward isn't winning inside the system… it's stepping outside it. PLUS, letting go of old grudges, focusing your energy on what's next, and the simple rule: GMP — Get More Powerful. Bye Betches!
