The question of whether PCOS can be reversed is one of the most commonly searched topics in women's hormone health. In this episode we move past both the hopeless narrative and the unrealistic cure culture claims to offer a grounded, honest, and genuinely hopeful answer. The body is adaptable. Symptoms can improve dramatically. And understanding the physiology behind that adaptability changes everything about how women approach their healing.Hormone Adaptability: Why Your Hormones Are Not Permanently StuckYour hormones are not fixed, static things. They are dynamic systems in constant communication with your environment, your inputs, your stress load, your nourishment, and your nervous system state. In this episode we explain the mechanism behind hormone adaptability and why meaningful symptom improvement is a genuine physiological possibility for women with PCOS.Ovulation and Cycle Improvement: What Is Possible Over TimeOvulation is not a switch that is simply on or off. It is the downstream result of a complex hormonal conversation. And when the systems that influence that conversation, including insulin sensitivity, cortisol regulation, and inflammation, begin to be supported, the conversation often starts to go differently. In this episode we discuss what cycle and ovulation improvement can realistically look like for women with PCOS.Metabolism and Hormone Signaling: The Environment ConnectionTwo women with the exact same PCOS diagnosis can have completely different symptom experiences because their environments are different. Their stress loads, nourishment, sleep quality, and nervous system states all influence how their shared genetic predisposition expresses itself. In this episode we explore how metabolism and hormone signaling are shaped by environment and what that means for healing.Realistic Expectations for PCOS HealingHealing with PCOS is rarely a straight line upward. It is gradual, non-linear, and often quiet in its early stages. In this episode we offer a realistic and compassionate picture of what the timeline of PCOS symptom improvement actually looks like, including the subtle signs of progress that women often overlook or dismiss.Sustainable Healing Over Extreme ProtocolsExtreme approaches can create short-term symptom shifts but rarely create the sustained environmental change that allows the body to genuinely adapt over time. In this episode we explore why sustainable, consistent, nourishing support creates different and more lasting results than extreme protocols, and what that sustainable approach actually looks like in practice.Root Causes and Symptom Improvement: The Connection That Changes EverythingUnderstanding which root causes are most involved in driving your specific PCOS symptoms is the most direct path to knowing what to actually support. In this episode we discuss how root cause awareness transforms the healing approach from a generic protocol into a personalised, physiologically informed strategy that the body can actually respond to over time.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereLearn more about the PCOS Root Cause BootcampLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at: https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-191

Wednesday on The A-Team, Adam Clanton and Adam Wexler put the Texans' offensive line under the microscope, breaking down who they believe will be in the starting lineup when the season kicks off. While Braden Smith is expected to open the year at right tackle, he'll have to beat out Trent Brown, who played well in limited action last season. Plus, AC and Wex argue the Texans haven't made a truly significant offensive line upgrade since acquiring Laremy Tunsil, suggesting fans expecting the unit to improve far beyond the NFL's bottom third may need to temper those expectations.

Can someone join a network marketing company and make $30,000 a month within their first year? Yes. But those success stories are anomalies—not the typical experience. In this episode, recorded while I'm in Malaysia, I talk about why setting realistic expectations in network marketing may be one of the most important things you can do to improve retention and help more people succeed. Too many people enter the profession expecting massive results almost immediately. When those results don't happen within a few weeks or months, they assume something is wrong. Maybe the company doesn't work. Maybe the compensation plan isn't good enough. Maybe they joined at the wrong time. Or maybe they simply aren't capable of succeeding. In reality, building a successful network marketing business usually requires time, patience, consistency and the development of new skills. When we bring people on board with the right expectations, they're better prepared for the challenges they'll experience. They don't panic when success takes longer than expected. They don't interpret every setback as failure. They stay engaged. They continue learning. And many remain in the business long enough to finally achieve meaningful results. Realistic expectations don't make the opportunity less exciting. They make long-term success more likely. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why extraordinary income stories should never become ordinary expectations • How unrealistic expectations contribute to poor retention • Why patience is essential when building a network marketing business • How setting the right expectations helps new distributors navigate challenges • Why adjusting your own expectations may be just as important as adjusting those of your team • How keeping people engaged longer can dramatically improve their opportunity to succeed Watch the full episode: ToddFalcone.com/episode379  Subscribe for practical, field-tested network marketing training on recruiting, prospecting, leadership, mindset, duplication and building a successful long-term business. #NetworkMarketing #NetworkMarketingSuccess #NetworkMarketingTraining #DirectSelling #EntrepreneurMindset #BusinessSuccess #Leadership #Patience #ToddFalcone

Episode Summary Carly Greenwald has spent more than 20 years in IT leadership and change management, leading global transformation work that connects new technology with the people who actually use it. In this episode she and host Justin Lake dig into why frontline adoption succeeds or fails, and they keep landing on one word: confidence. The conversation moves from the frontline worker handed a change they never asked for, to the customer across the counter, to the project team that has lived inside the implementation for months. Carly argues for honesty over polish. Do not sugarcoat the change, do not oversell benefits that are not there, and do not save feedback for a big reveal that rarely goes as planned. Her sharpest point reframes who needs confidence: it is not only the frontline. Project teams often delay user feedback because they are not yet confident in what they are building, and bringing users in early, in small increments, raises everyone's confidence at once. Key Topics The underrepresented frontline voice Unwinding old habits, not just teaching the new way Honesty over sugarcoating the change How frontline confidence transfers to customers The project team's own confidence Early, incremental feedback instead of the big reveal Being realistic about what change asks of people Episode Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Change Management in Technology 01:12 Consequences of Poor Technology Adoption 04:28 Engaging Frontline Workers in Change 07:34 Overcoming Resistance to Change 10:09 The Impact of Change on Customer Experience 11:38 The Role of Change Managers 14:22 Building Trust and Relationships 17:20 The Isolation of Frontline Workers 20:14 The Importance of Confidence in Frontline Teams 23:05 The Ripple Effect of Technology Changes 26:06 Connecting Confidence and Customer Trust 37:51 Understanding Change from the Frontline Perspective 44:01 Building Confidence in Change Management 51:43 The Importance of User Feedback in Implementations 01:01:19 Realistic Expectations for Digital Transformation About Carly Greenwald Carly Greenwald is an IT change management and user engagement leader with more than 20 years of experience in IT leadership and change management. She specializes in global transformation initiatives that bridge technology and people, helping organizations move past implementation into genuine adoption with a practical, people-centered approach.

Most beginners think the first step is finding the right program. It isn't. This episode breaks down the Right Program Myth, the lie that the perfect plan is out there waiting to be found, and walks through the real first move: deciding who you're becoming before you decide what to eat. Rick shares his own 23-year, $14,247 history of "correct" programs that all failed the same way, then lays out the three actual first steps for anyone starting, or starting over.Key Points MentionedThe Right Program Myth: why searching for "the one" plan that finally works is the wrong first move, and why it quietly sets beginners up to repeat the same cycle The parking lot metaphor: programs are the car, not the destination, and no vehicle gets you anywhere without an address programmed in first Step one: decide the destination. Get specific about who you're becoming before touching a meal plan Step two: set a realistic timeline. Why the industry's 30-day promise is a countdown to disappointment, and what sustainable change actually looks like Step three: pick your structure last. Once the destination and timeline are set, a program becomes a tool, not a rescue A client story (Pam) on what shifted once she understood her identity was never dependent on what she ateNext StepIf you're ready to do the identity work first, that's exactly what Escape the Willpower Trap was built for. Not another program. The destination work.https://news.weightlossmindset.co/subscribe

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and RJ Abeytia are back in studio talking about general manager Chad Bowden's impact on USC's high school recruiting efforts. The Trojans signed the No. 1 recruiting class in 2026 and currently has the No. 14 ranked group for 2027. The guys talk about this shift in focus to high school prospects over the portal and what a recent report from The Athletic had to say about the state of recruiting in Southern California. USC football kicks off in just over two months so Ryan and RJ talk about what their realistic expectations are for this team. Lincoln Riley says that the Trojans championship window is open, so making the playoffs for the very first time has to be on the table. The guys also give their thoughts on the NCAA's new 5-for-5 eligibility rule and how that could impact this Trojan squad and future roster building for USC. Last week three-star defensive tackle Malik Brooks announced that he would not be joining his fellow classmates at USC this fall, instead he will be enrolling at Southwest College to play junior college ball. The guys talk about the 350-pounder's decision to delay enrollment and how his choice could be impacted by the aforementioned 5 for 5 eligibility rule.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

New York City hotels, while expensive, often are much smaller and simpler than travelers expect. While you won't spend much time in your hotel, it's important to understand what your room and hotel experience will entail in NYC.In this episode, we'll cover:Average hotel pricesTaxes & fees to be aware ofRoom size & what to expect for (the lack of) amenitiesThe Airbnb situationPro tips to maximize your NYC hotel experience1. The Price of a Bed in NYCAverage Range: $250–$400 depending on neighborhood (Times Square = highest)Budget [think hostel-style] ($115 +) vs. mid-range ($225+) vs. luxury ($500+++)Weekdays (cheaper) vs. weekends, and seasonal swings matter (Jan & Feb are often the cheapest time)2. Taxes & Fees: The Hidden CostBase rate is never what you pay — 14.75% in combined state/city taxes + $3.50/night flat feesReal-world example: one traveler's fees came to 29% of their room costEven the fees get taxed on top of each otherPro tip: always check the total before booking, not just the nightly rateSome hotels add in resort fees, mandatory daily fees for food/drink, etc.3.

Dr. Mike Hart interviews board-certified urologist Dr. Alex Tatum about peptide access, compounding, and men's health. Tatum argues many peptides are naturally occurring and lacked FDA commercialization incentives, says the FDA's 2023 move banning 19 compounds from Category 1 was contested due to no produced adverse-safety evidence, and describes the patient impact and advocacy around a July PCAC meeting. He explains most peptide APIs and many compounded GLP-1 ingredients come from China, while pharma-grade GLP-1s have more U.S. production. The discussion covers retatrutide's potential biologic classification (40–amino acid rule) and pricing implications, MOTS-c as an adjunct for low energy on GLP-1s, skepticism about cardarine, growth hormone secretagogues and cancer fears, TRT dosing frequency, sleep apnea screening, HCG's roles, and penis enhancement via traction for length and hyaluronic acid filler for girth, emphasizing expectations and mental health. Dr. Alex Tatem is a board-certified urologist focused on men's health, hormone optimization, male fertility, and sexual wellness. In this episode, he joins Dr. Mike Hart to discuss the changing landscape of peptide therapy, including FDA restrictions, compounding pharmacies, drug supply chains, and the growing debate around access to treatments such as BPC-157, MOTS-c, and retatrutide. He also breaks down practical considerations for men using testosterone replacement therapy, including HCG, fertility preservation, dosing frequency, estrogen-related side effects, and sleep apnea risk. Drawing from his experience treating a wide range of patients, he shares a harm-reduction approach to performance medicine and explains what men should understand before considering growth hormone peptides, GLP-1 medications, or penile enhancement procedures.

Any #poker session you play can be thought of as a series of decisions. The "correct" decision in any spot, such as whether to bet and how much, in principle has an objectively-correct answer. This has some players erroneously seeking perfection.   In the real world, the information you use to make each decision contains uncertainty. You simply do not know the precise range of your opponent, and even if you did, a precise EV calculation in real time is not a feasible goal. Make the best decision you can with the available information, but accept that your goal is to be good, not perfect.   TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Introduction: Certain Uncertainty in Poker 0:42 The Myth of Perfect Decision Making 1:30 Why Professional Players Don't Always Know What to Do 3:06 Quest for Perfection vs Reality 4:47 Three Areas Where Uncertainty is Normal 5:23 Area 1: Can You Ever Know You're a Winner? 7:08 Area 2: Understanding Villain Ranges 9:43 The Ranging Process is Just an Educated Guess 11:42 Area 3: Expected Value Calculations 12:42 The Limitations of EV Calculations 15:12 Long-Term EV vs Single Hand EV 18:21 Being Better Than Average is Enough 20:07 Embrace Uncertainty to Improve Your Game   RELATED LINKS The Low-Stakes Poker Playbook: https://redchippoker.com/low-stakes-poker-playbook/ SplitSuit Poker Workbooks: https://www.splitsuit.com/poker-workbooks Generating Profit In Multiway Pots: https://redchippoker.com/profit-from-multiway-pots/ Play Better Poker Through EV Modeling: https://youtu.be/zvRTqcJ7DHY?si=i_tZRyP3JBOQ-TCm   **JOIN US ON DISCORD** Join our free poker Discord today: https://redchippoker.com/discord

This talk is the fifth installment in a wellness series that takes a distinctly yogic approach to understanding life's challenges and spiritual development.Acharya das discusses the concept of "false shelter" (durashraya in Sanskrit) - the tendency to place unlimited trust in things that cannot provide genuine protection or happiness. He uses examples ranging from relationships and material possessions to modern technology and social media to illustrate how people become victims of their own poor choices rather than external circumstances. He stresses the importance of taking personal responsibility for life decisions and developing consequential thinking.Acharya das concludes with an emphasis on the importance of cultivating atma-tattva (knowledge of the soul/self) and the necessity of reconnecting with the Supreme Soul as the only genuine source of shelter and protection. He advocates for regular chanting meditation as a transformative practice that can lead to self-realization and God-realization, describing it as an immersive experience rather than a mental activity. Quotes used in the talk:For him who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for one who has failed to do so, his very mind will be the greatest enemy. Bhagavad-gītā 6.6For one whose mind is unbridled, self-realization is difficult work. But he whose mind is controlled and who strives by right means is assured of success. That is My opinion. Bhagavad-gītā 6.36When a man in the material world takes more interest in the materialistic way of life than in spiritual/God consciousness, he is considered to be in a diseased condition. The normal condition is to remain an eternal servant of the Lord. This healthy condition is lost when the living entity forgets God due to being attracted by the external features of Krsna's maya energy. This world of maya is called durasraya, which means “false or bad shelter.” One who puts his faith in durasraya becomes a candidate for hoping against hope. In the material world everyone is trying to become happy, and although their material attempts are baffled in every way, due to their nescience [ignorance] they cannot understand their mistakes. People try to rectify one mistake by making another mistake. This is the way of the struggle for existence in the material world. If one in this condition is advised to take to [cultivating] God consciousness and be happy, he does not accept such instructions. – Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaPersons devoid of ātma-tattva do not inquire into the problems of life, being too attached to the fallible soldiers like the body, children and wife. Although sufficiently experienced, they still do not see their inevitable destruction. Bhāgavata Purāṇa 2.1.4“One who is not connected with the Supreme Soul can have neither transcendental intelligence nor a steady mind, without which there is no possibility of peace. And how can there be any happiness without peace?” – Bhagavad-gītā 2.66Chapters 00:00:00 Introduction to Yogic Wellness Philosophy ‎ 00:02:14 The Threefold Miseries and Realistic Expectations ‎ 00:04:35 Historical Foundation: Sanatana Goswami's Questions ‎ 00:13:32 Personal Responsibility in Relationships and Life Choices ‎ 00:19:24 The Search for Shelter and Modern Emptiness ‎ 00:26:07 Consequential Thinking and Rat Trap Happiness ‎ 00:29:17 Mind Control and Spiritual Practice ‎ 00:32:51 Modern Manipulation and Technology Addiction ‎ 00:37:34 False Shelter and Spiritual Guidance ‎ 00:42:00 Durashraya: The Nature of False Shelter ‎ 00:47:38 Fallible Soldiers and Spiritual Truth ‎ 00:50:00 True Shelter and Spiritual Connection ‎ 00:54:08 Chanting Meditation as Transformative Practice

The Knicks are headed to the NBA Finals, and the guys react to soaring ticket prices, debate whether Jalen Brunson has reached superstar status, and preview a tight Game 5 between the Thunder and Spurs with a potential Finals matchup looming. They also discuss the Cavaliers facing criticism after their playoff exit, James Harden drawing more scrutiny for another disappointing postseason, and whether the Heat should go all-in to try and land Giannis Antetokounmpo. On the Dolphins front, a bold 8–9 win prediction gets compared to Vegas expectations as Joe questions how realistic it is given the team's dead cap situation and brutal schedule. Plus, in Hollywood's Headlines, Lane Kiffin sparks controversy with comments about Ole Miss, the bizarre “Enhanced Games” flop is recapped, and Johnny Manziel headlines a wild combat sports weekend alongside Lance Stephenson and Michael Beasley.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are back in OTAs, and Aaron Rodgers is also back as the team's QB1.

Ffion Davies joins James Smith to reveal the problem with women in jiu-jitsu, a sport often gatekept by a "sausage fest" mentality and dangerous myths about self-defense. Davies, a six-time world champion, exposes why the current narrative is failing women and how the lack of equal pay is a quiet crisis threatening the sport's growth. They confront the reality of the "big strong dude" syndrome, the biological discrepancies in training, and the high-stakes battle for financial respect in elite competition.

https://teachhoops.com/ ⁠Teachhoops.com⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Win the Season Masterclass⁠⁠ ⁠⁠CoachingYouthHoops.com⁠⁠ Navigating a season where the talent level or win-loss record doesn't meet historical standards requires a fundamental shift in how a coach defines success. During these "down" years, the primary focus must pivot from the scoreboard to incremental growth and the mastery of foundational skills. It is essential to establish clear, measurable objectives that players can achieve regardless of the final score, such as improving free-throw percentages, reducing turnovers, or perfecting a specific defensive rotation. By anchoring the team's identity in work ethic and "the process," you prevent the discouragement that often leads to a toxic culture, ensuring that the program remains on a trajectory toward future success. Communication with stakeholders—including players, parents, and administration—becomes the most critical tool in a coach's arsenal during a challenging year. It is vital to be transparent about the current state of the program while consistently highlighting the "small wins" that occur in practice and games. Managing expectations means being honest about the youth or inexperience of the roster while emphasizing the long-term vision. When everyone understands that this season is a building block rather than a destination, it creates a protective buffer around the players, allowing them to compete with freedom rather than the crushing weight of unrealistic pressure. Finally, a down season is an opportunity for a coach to model resilience and emotional intelligence. Players take their cues from the leadership; if a coach remains poised and continues to find joy in teaching, the athletes will follow suit. This is the time to experiment with new schemes, develop deeper benches, and identify the "culture carriers" who will lead the program back to its peak. Success in these years isn't found in the standings, but in the retention of players and the maintenance of a high-standard environment that prepares the team to capitalize when the talent cycle swings back in their favor.

Psilocybin is neurologically proven to unwire years of bad habits, enhancing focus, emotional control, and mental clarity. Society has intentionally hidden the truth about how this powerful compound can optimize your mind and body, but that changes now. In episode 847 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with Adam Schell, a former cannabis industry insider who now dedicates his life to psilocybin. Adam shares his incredible story, from a life altering psychedelic experience to losing millions and rebuilding.
