Episode Summary: If you’ve ever struggled with forgiveness—whether that’s forgiving others, forgiving yourself, or even struggling with feeling forgiven by God—then this episode is for you. Jessica and I talk about The Role of Forgiveness in Healing the Brain and Heart. Quotables from the episode: Science and scripture both affirm that forgiveness is vital for emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. Forgiveness is more than a feeling—it’s a powerful decision that can transform your life. This topic is close to my heart because I’ve seen firsthand how forgiveness can set people free. I know many of our listeners and viewers carry deep wounds, and my prayer is that today’s conversation will bring encouragement and hope. Forgiveness is essential because it aligns us with God’s heart. We were created for relationships, but when hurt enters the picture, it creates emotional and spiritual wounds. Unforgiveness keeps us bound to that pain. It’s like drinking poison and expecting the other person to suffer. From a scientific perspective, studies show that holding onto unforgiveness increases stress hormones like cortisol, which negatively impacts brain function, weakens the immune system, and can even contribute to depression and anxiety. When we forgive, we release that toxic load, allowing our brains and bodies to function in a state of peace. As a neuropsychologist, I’ve also seen how unforgiveness affects brain chemistry. It triggers the fight-or-flight response, keeping us in a constant state of stress which can lead to depression, anxiety, discouragement, fear, even anger. But when we choose to forgive, our brain rewires itself toward healing and restoration. For years, I thought holding onto that anger would somehow hold the other person accountable. But instead, it only held me captive. When I finally chose to forgive, I experienced a peace I hadn’t known in years. And the beautiful thing was, God used that forgiveness to bring healing to my heart in ways I never expected. One of the biggest myths is that forgiveness means excusing or condoning what happened. Forgiveness is not saying that what happened was okay. It doesn’t mean forgetting or pretending it never happened. Instead, it’s releasing the burden of justice to God. Romans 12:19 reminds us, “Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: ‘It is mine to avenge; I will repay,’ says the Lord.” Another myth is that we have to feel ready to forgive before we do it. But forgiveness is an act of obedience, not an emotion. Often, the feelings follow the decision. Jesus didn’t tell us to forgive when we felt like it. He commanded us to forgive because He knows the weight it lifts off our souls. And something amazing happens when we take that step of obedience—our hearts begin to soften, and healing begins. The process of forgiveness starts with prayer. We have to be honest with God about our pain and ask Him for the strength to forgive. Then, we choose to release the offense. Sometimes, it’s a one-time decision; other times, it’s a daily process of surrendering it to God until the pain no longer has power over us. And sometimes, we need to verbalize forgiveness, even if it’s just between us and God. Saying, “Lord, I choose to forgive [person’s name] for [specific hurt]” helps solidify the decision in our hearts. And one of the hardest but most powerful steps is praying for the person who hurt us. Jesus told us in Matthew 5:44, “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” It’s hard at first, but it shifts our hearts from bitterness to compassion. Forgiveness is not about the other person—it’s about your own freedom. It doesn’t mean what they did was right, but it means you’re choosing to release the burden and trust God with justice. Take it one step at a time, and know that you are never alone in the process.

On this episode: The Washington DC Council faces an unprecedented situation as Ward 8 holds a special election on July 15th following the expulsion of Trayon White, the first council member ever removed from office in the district's history. White, who was charged with federal bribery in August after allegedly being caught on video accepting cash envelopes in exchange for steering city contracts, won reelection with roughly ¾'s of the vote in November 2024 before being unanimously expelled by his colleagues. Now running to reclaim his seat against three challengers—advisory neighborhood commissioner Salima Dofo, former mayoral aide Sheila Bunn, and attorney Mike Austin, to name a few—White's potential return creates a complex political dilemma for the council. The situation is further complicated by President Trump's recent threats to take over DC's government and the symbolic significance of Ward 8 as the political base of former mayor Marion Barry. Council members must weigh whether to expel White again if he wins, risking backlash from Ward 8 voters who have twice supported him, while considering the broader implications for federal interference and the district's reputation as White's federal trial looms in January 2026.Catch up on the race: https://news.ballotpedia.org/2025/06/27/seven-candidates-are-running-in-a-special-election-for-ward-8-of-the-washington-d-c-city-council/ Follow our guest's reporting: https://wamu.org/person/alex-koma/ Complete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

There are days when the weight of the world feels heavier than we can carry. Days when the mirror doesn't reflect strength, only exhaustion. And on those days; the quiet ones, the lonely ones , we have to reach for something within ourselves.It doesn't have to be loud. It doesn't have to be perfect. Just bold enough to get us through the day anyway.That something in us, it's resilience. It's love. And even when we don't feel strong, it carries us. Even when we feel like giving up, it reminds us: we've made it through every hard day so far. We're still here. We're still rising.So today, let that something be enough to get you out of bed, to face the day, to try again, to get dressed and be “that girl”. It doesn't have to be a big step. It just has to be forward.Because there is something in you even if it's buried beneath the weight that refuses to quit. And that, right there, is your light.Connect with me through my website to set up any life coaching services (first session on me!!), my self help book titled Reclaim your Power: Healing from the inside out, or any self- love products.

Lee, MD dives into a paradigm-shifting transmission on reclaiming your sexual power, unveiling the true purpose of sexual energy, and why it was originally created by Source. From the cosmic origins of polarity to the hidden science of the womb, this episode is a revelation for anyone seeking to heal shame, awaken divine union, and anchor heaven on Earth.Dr. Lee shares how sacred sexuality was designed not for mere reproduction, but as a plasma technology to reunify fragmented souls, activate dormant DNA strands, and even birth new timelines, cities, and civilizations through the living grail of the womb. This profound teaching exposes how fallen forces hijacked humanity's sexual templates, and why restoring your sexual sovereignty is critical for the New Earth.This episode explores sacred mechanics from the Kathara grid to scalar plasma codes, why Mary Magdalene was systematically erased, and how her archetype is rising again to heal humanity's deepest wounds. Get ready to see your own body — and pleasure — as a holy altar.

This week's show is with Coco Oya Cienna-Rey. Coco is the author of Digging for Mother's Bones from Womancraft Publishing, is a UK based mother, grandmother, creative, mystic, soul guide and writer. Her creativity is informed by her journey as a devotee of the Tantric path (an embodied path of self-liberation) and her personal journey with trauma. Coco has always felt a call to channel the Voice of the Divine Feminine and is published in several bestselling anthologies.  Often thought provoking, yet always heartfelt her work speaks of the sacred wisdom stored in the body, the non-linear nature of trauma and the embodiment of soul. She believes that our innate connection to the natural world can heal humanity. As a deeply sensitive, highly empathic gifted intuitive Coco can be found weaving her soul-coaching embodiment work at www.creativelycoco.com  In this episode, Lian and Coco explore the profound journey from trauma to remembrance, from collapse to creative power. Together, they trace the raw, mythic arc of a woman who was silenced by pain… and reborn through the arms of the Great Mother. This conversation moves like an initiation, stirring deep memory in the body, revealing the erotic and mystical core of feminine being. Coco shares the story behind her book's birth: a story that begins in abuse and mental illness and unfolds through a spontaneous Kundalini awakening, a near-death experience, and the long road of integration. She reflects on the sacred technology of the womb, the truth of the Virgin and the Whore as one, and the living presence of the Mother as the centre of all creation. Along the way, she speaks to the wildness of true feminine energy… not as something performative, but as a force of love capable of reshaping the world. Lian and Coco weave personal memory with mythic remembrance, questioning how we reclaim the power of receptivity in a world that has trained us to close. This is an episode that stirs the womb and speaks to the place in every woman that longs to feel… to open… to remember that she is not only enough, but the very axis of life itself. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll learn from this episode: How the sexual wounds of the planet are not abstract, but live in the body… and how remembering the womb's creative power begins to restore them Why integrating the Virgin and the Whore is essential to reclaiming the whole feminine… not as metaphor, but as lived, embodied truth The importance of receptivity as a sacred feminine capacity, and how shifting from the front of the body to the back can open the space for life to be received again Resources and stuff spoken about: Visit Coco's Website Join UNIO, the Academy of the Soul This is for the old souls in this new world… Discover your kin & unite with your soul's calling to truly live your myth.

After my divorce, I felt completely disconnected from myself. Meditation didn't help—but small rituals did. Adorning myself. Lighting candles. Choosing beauty just for me. That's when I realized… this is the feminine path.   In this episode, I'm joined by Shiva Rose, author, holistic beauty founder, and water priestess, who helped me remember that spirituality and sensuality don't have to be separate.   We talk about reclaiming the yoni, self-sourced pleasure, and what it really means to embody your feminine energy no matter your relationship status.   We cover: What "yoni" actually means and why it matters Maiden vs. woman energy Yoni steaming, breast massage, and womb clearing Creating intimacy without losing yourself How to reconnect with your body after heartbreak This is the conversation I wish I heard years ago.

In Part 2 of Tara's vitamin D series, we move beyond lab values and dig into the real-world consequences of high-dose vitamin D supplementation and what to do instead. Tara details how today's standard reference ranges may be misleading, why more is not always better, and how excessive vitamin D can lead to calcium loss, mitochondrial damage, mood symptoms, and even worsen autoimmune conditions. More importantly, she shares a root-cause approach to supporting vitamin D naturally without megadosing and creating imbalance.

Hi Parents! Have you ever noticed how the most critical voice in your life might be your own? That internal dialogue that questions every parenting decision, especially when your teen is struggling with anxiety can be exhausting. In today's episode, I'm joined by Sue Erhart, author of Lose Your Critic for Good for a powerful conversation on what it really takes to quiet that inner voice and reconnect with your calm, confident center. Sue shares her deeply personal journey from a high-powered corporate career to becoming a guide for others seeking peace and purpose. We explore how perfectionism and pressure create disconnection, why conventional self-help tools often miss the mark, and how small shifts in awareness can lead to lasting change, without needing to burn everything down and start over. More about Sue: Sue Erhart spent decades as a corporate executive and attorney, operating in high-stakes environments where success was measured by external achievements. But behind the scenes, she was grappling with a harsh inner critic that left her feeling stuck, depleted, and out of alignment. After a personal transformation, Sue created a platform that blends grounded wisdom with spiritual insight to help others reclaim their power and inner clarity. Her book offers a step-by-step method to break free from the grip of self-judgment and step into a more aligned, fulfilling way of living. Now, she's on a mission to help others, especially those who've spent years doing things “the hard way” - find a more compassionate path to joy, confidence, and inner freedom. If you're ready to let go of the mental noise and start parenting - and living - from a place of truth and trust, you won't want to miss this episode.

“Betrayal is a sacred initiation. It uncovers the truth—and the truth sets you free.” Betrayal feels like the end. But what if it's the beginning? What if the devastation you're living through is actually the doorway to your deepest truth, your rawest power, and a joy you never knew was possible? This special July 4th episode is a bold celebration of freedom—the kind of freedom that comes not from fireworks or flags, but from shedding everything that was never truly yours. Because when betrayal cracks your life open, it also exposes what was always true beneath the surface. Betrayal recovery coach and advocate Lora Cheadle reveals why infidelity isn't just a relational rupture—it's a soul-level awakening. And how, when you stop fighting the story and start listening to the truth it reveals, you gain something no one can ever take from you again: unshakable sovereignty, radiant joy, and the power to create your life on your own terms. Book Your Introductory Session Here: https://calendly.com/loras-schedule/first-time-session TOP 3 TAKEAWAYS: Betrayal is a sacred initiation that strips away illusion. It forces you to confront the truth about your relationship, your past, and your deepest self. The pain is a portal. When you stop resisting what happened and start listening to what it's trying to reveal, you begin to rise. Freedom isn't about forgiveness—it's about remembering who you were before you forgot your worth. And rebuilding your life from that place of unshakable self-trust.

In this heartfelt follow-up episode, Megan Hopp returns to Beautiful Behavior—but this time, she's not wearing her professional hat. She's showing up as a mama navigating the unexpected path of parenting a child with a PANDAS diagnosis.After her son's diagnosis, Megan found herself caught in a whirlwind of appointments, protocols, and pressure. But what surprised her most wasn't another treatment plan—it was the transformation that happened when she sloweddown and tuned in. What her son needed most wasn't more “doing.” It was her presence.Together, we explore how presence became their most powerful parenting tool, how play helped rebuild trust, and how letting go of cultural conditioning opened the door to healing—not just for her son, but for their whole family.In this episode, we discuss:*Why a diagnosis was a catalyst for growth*How Megan learned to shift from doing to being*The role of play in rebuilding trust and connection*What happens when children are encouraged to trust their own bodies*How presence—not productivity—can be the most healing medicineWhether you're parenting through a diagnosis, navigating uncertainty, or wondering how to show up more fully for your child, this conversation is a powerful reminder: you don't need to have all the answers.

Episode Summary: On this episode, I talk with Janet McHenry, who shared her painful wound of walking with her husband through a very unjust situation that happened to him which caused her much shame. Yet, she also shares how God revealed himself to her, and answered her prayers in a way that she didn’t expect, producing a beautiful sacred scar. Quotables from the episode: My wound goes back to fall 2001, when we had a two-day blizzard in the Sierra valley when six calves and a bull bedded down in an old creek bed in the corner of my husband’s ranch, and were covered by snow. My husband was unaware this happened. A neighbor reported it not to my husband but to the local animal control authorities, and my husband was given seven animal cruelty charges, despite all the evidence in our favor. We unfortunately had an unjust judge who would not let records be placed into evidence, nor let experts testify on our behalf. The judge also harassed two of the defense witnesses. So much of the evidence that we had lined up for the trial was not allowed to be admitted. So he ended up being convicted on six animal cruelty charges with the possibility of getting three years in state prison. We felt a great deal of shame. How do you live in a community of your peers, with only 3000 in our entire county without a single stoplight. It’s an agricultural area where people raise hay and beef cattle. We experienced shame over this. We experienced fear because the judge could decide my husband would get those three years in prison, and how would we then live? The judge also could have pulled all the animals away from the ranch, removing my husband’s livelihood. My husband was pursuing his Ph.D. and was beginning to work on his doctoral dissertation, but my husband wouldn’t be able to teach with a felony conviction. So we experienced shame, fear, and a wounding because I had prayer walked around my community, I taught in a school district with only about 32 teachers so we all knew each other intimately, so I wasn’t able to avoid people through this process. I found it very difficult to finish out my school year as a teacher so I took a leave of absence and went on antidepressants because I couldn’t eat, I couldn’t sleep, my heart wouldn’t stop racing; I had never before experienced those physical reactions to stress. We worked really hard to get public support, and two months later was the sentencing. We filled the courtroom with friends and family and six pastors. The entire courtroom was a community of supporters for us. At the sentencing, the judge gave my husband four years of probation and a huge fine, so my husband had to sell off a large percentage of his herd to pay for that. We determined right away to file an appeal with the state appellate court. In the appeal, we documented over 240 instances where the judge had prejudiced the jurors. We waited another two years to get that decision. One by one we heard the appellate judges say that they were going to overturn the original decision. We determined to keep living here and keep serving our community the best that we could. One thing I learned on the day of the sentencing was that God was doing another great work in our lives that was unrelated. Standing in the parking lot after the decision was overturned a friend spoke up about what she saw in my husband and that God was really doing a new work in him and that he had a new countenance. It was then that I realized God was answering my prayers for my marriage which for 20-something years, I had been asking God to do a deeper work in our marriage, to save our marriage, to keep us together. God was working to answer a different prayer request than the ones that seemed more immediate. I don’t think I’d want to go through that situation again, but I did learn a lot about God’s loving presence through that. I re-read the book of Job every year when I read through the Bible, and I realized what I needed was a friend to quietly sit beside me. What Job needed was one good friend to sit with him through his suffering. Even though Job didn’t hear from God, God was that friend in Job’s wait. Even when it seems like God is silent, He is with us, He’s cheering us on. He cares about us. He loves us. Even if the situation doesn’t resolve in the way that we think is best, God will be even closer to us as a result of what we’ve been through. That presence of God, that closeness to him, is the best thing we can get out of this life on earth.

Have you ever felt as though the ground has suddenly dropped out from under you after someone you trusted deeply betrayed you?Betrayal can manifest physically and emotionally, preventing you from achieving what you truly desire.In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Debi Silber, PhD, the founder of The Post Betrayal Transformation Institute and an international bestselling author. She shares three key insights from her personal experiences with betrayal trauma, as well as her research findings.Debi explains why betrayal trauma is uniquely different and requires a different healing approach. She also describes what relationship recovery entails and walks you through the five stages of healing from betrayal. In this episode, you'll learn:How trauma responses can create discomfort and physical issues in the body, manifesting as exhaustion, gut problems, chest tightness, disrupted sleep, and difficulty loving again.The three discoveries Debi made while researching betrayal trauma, and why it differs from other types of emotional trauma.The importance of nervous system regulation and somatic healing in overcoming betrayal trauma. The five stages you need to navigate in order to heal from betrayal.Why stage three is often referred to as the "muddy middle" and is the most challenging phase to get through.The crucial role of emotional resilience in progressing through all five stages. How trauma responses like people-pleasing, emotional eating, or emotional shutdown may indicate a need for further healing from your betrayal trauma.Why forgiveness is more about your personal journey than the actions of the other person.How setting emotional boundaries can help you move forward with clarity and self-trust. The #1 indicator that will determine your ability to recover from your betrayal. If you're still holding on to a past betrayal and are ready to rebuild your self-trust, this conversation is for you!

Break the illusion. Reclaim your reality. Welcome to The On-Call Empath Show! This space is for those who feel like they're stuck in a system that was never built for them—because you're right. It wasn't. This episode is about unplugging from the Matrix—not just the metaphor, but the real systems of control that keep us overworked, underpaid, emotionally drained, and spiritually numb.If you've ever felt like nothing makes sense, like you're just going through the motions, or like no matter how hard you try, you're still running in circles—you're not alone. The system was designed to keep you asleep. And waking up isn't easy—especially after trauma.In each episode, we'll explore what it actually means to unplug. It starts with making conscious choices: how you spend your money, who you give your energy to, and what you tolerate in your life. It means cutting off toxic family dynamics, understanding that most employers will never value you, and learning to protect your peace like your life depends on it — because it does.This isn't about conspiracy. It's about clarity. It's about having a game plan. Healing. Reclaiming your time. And creating a life that finally feels like yours.You won't find quick fixes here—but if you're ready to stop pretending everything's fine and start building something real, you're in the right place.You can't change a broken world until you step outside of it. Let's start there.***Intro Credit: Instagram: laura.renaudThe On-Call Empath Podcast:Welcome to "The On-Call Empath" Podcast, where we dive deep into the complexities of abuse and trauma.

July 2025 brings powerful astrological currents with Saturn Retrograde and Mercury Retrograde guiding us through a period of deep introspection and self-redefinition. These shifts, along with a transformative New Moon in Leo, encourage us to cultivate a deeper sense of presence and authenticity. Key Astrological Dates for July (Part 2): July 10th: Full Moon in Capricorn (Join Amanda for a FREE Full Moon Ceremony!) July 13th: Saturn Retrograde at nearly 2 degrees of Aries July 18th - August 11th: Mercury Retrograde at 15 degrees of Leo July 22nd: Sun enters Leo July 24th: New Moon in Leo at 3:11 PM ET at 2 degrees July 30th: Chiron Retrograde at 26 degrees of Aries Missed Part 1 of the July Numerology & Astrology Forecast? Listen now. Beginning July 13th, Saturn Retrograde in Aries initiates a slow, introspective phase that focuses on maturity, responsibility, and practical action, prompting us to re-evaluate our foundations. It highlights the divine masculine as an inclusive force of drive and secure presence, emphasizing authentic, organic flow over rigid control. From July 18th to August 11th, Mercury Retrograde in Leo will dampen external creative expression and soften the ego's voice. While Leo typically "roars," this retrograde encourages a more subtle, heart-centered approach to self-expression. It's a time for revision, not launching new projects, allowing you to refine how you genuinely share your light. As the Sun enters Leo on July 22nd, a desire for playfulness emerges. Embrace this summertime fun vibe with enjoyable activities that balance your masculine and feminine energies. The New Moon in Leo on July 24th at 3:11 PM ET calls for stillness and amplifying your light from within. It signifies a rebirth of authentic self-expression, shifting your energy towards presence over performance. Use this time to set intentions for showing up unapologetically and reclaiming joy as a sacred practice. Chiron Retrograde begins July 30th in Aries, surfacing wounds around identity, ego, anger, and rage. Chiron, the wounded healer, reminds us that sharing our deepest traumas can lead to healing for ourselves and others. Chiron's conjunction with Asteroid Ares brings divine discord to reveal truth and force issues to a head. This period is about being forged by fire, stripping away old layers to birth your divine warrior. Reclaim your sacred rage—allowing passion and anger to flow through you honorably, without directing it at others. This is a beautiful time to reorient your core power. What does presence feel like to you? What are you truly present for, and what is your presence radiating? Your gift lies in the present moment. ​​Join Amanda for a FREE 30-minute live Full Moon Ceremony via Zoom on Thursday, July 10 at 7:00 PM CST.Follow Amanda on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/soulpathology/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this powerful episode of the Feminine Frequency Podcast, Amy sits down with Taraney Speer, a devoted feminine healer, to dive deep into the connection between women and their wombs. For so many of us, there's a disconnect. Maybe we've never really felt our womb, or we've been taught to ignore, numb, or even feel shame about this part of ourselves. Taraney speaks with raw truth about her own journey to reclaiming her womb as a portal of power, healing, and ancestral wisdom. This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen in, and begin tending to the powerful center of your feminine body — not just for your healing, but for the healing of generations past and future.Themes:Why so many women feel resistance to womb work — and how to meet that resistance with tendernessThe womb as a record keeper of our life stories, traumas, and lineageHow to begin decoding your own womb story — and why it's often both painful and liberatingWhat it means to return to the sacred feminine and lead from an embodied, rooted placeThe importance of simply acknowledging your womb — no rituals or perfection needed, just presenceConnect with Amy:

In this episode of "Shark Theory," host Baylor Barbee delves into the complexities of managing dark days amidst life's ups and downs. Baylor challenges the common misconception that those who preach positivity experience only good days. Instead, he offers a realistic portrayal of the emotional rollercoaster faced by optimists and entrepreneurs alike. By emphasizing the importance of perspective, he guides listeners on navigating challenging times with grace and tact. Baylor shares personal anecdotes to illustrate the universal struggle of dealing with negative events that can overshadow an entire day. He stresses the significance of perspective, suggesting that usually, it's not the whole day that's bad, but rather one or two incidents that color our perception. With references to Marcus Aurelius's "Meditations," Baylor reminds listeners that we have the power to decide how we react to these events, introducing the powerful mindset: "This doesn't have to turn into something. This doesn't have to upset you." Key Takeaways: Perspective is crucial in dealing with bad days; it's often a single event that disrupts our mood. Quoting Marcus Aurelius, Baylor emphasizes the control we have over our reactions. Taking "timeouts," analogous to sports strategies, can break negative momentum and offer fresh perspective. Incorporating enjoyable activities can help regain positive momentum during a bad day. Staying resilient by focusing on making it to tomorrow, as things often improve with a new day. Notable Quotes: "This doesn't have to turn into something. This doesn't have to upset you." "You're either giving it the power to dictate how the rest of your day goes or you're making a decision." "Sometimes just taking the sting off it is enough to just get you back in the game." "Timeouts are critical. They stop the momentum of the opposing team, and in life, they allow you to see it from a different perspective." "It's always darkest before the dawn. But the sun's going to rise and things will change."

Is your vitamin D "deficiency" actually a misdiagnosis? In this eye-opening episode, Tara dives into one of the most misunderstood nutrients in functional medicine: vitamin D. While most practitioners rush to prescribe high doses of vitamin D based on a single lab marker (25(OH)D), Tara challenges the status quo and breaks down why this approach can be both misleading and harmful, especially for women in perimenopause.  She explains the critical difference between 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)₂D, why elevated active vitamin D (1,25) often goes unnoticed, and how it can actually suppress your vitamin D storage while driving up inflammation, calcium loss, and even contributing to autoimmune conditions and bone loss. This episode is a must-listen if you've ever felt confused about whether to supplement or if you've been taking vitamin D long-term without fully understanding how it works in your body. In this episode we cover: The difference between storage vs. active vitamin D (and why you must always test both but your practitioner likely hasn't) The issues with vitamin D testing that scientists are hotly debating (can you even trust your lab result?) What is the optimal reference range for vitamin D? And why ranges are terribly inflated and many are not to be trusted. What really drives down vitamin D in the body and how to come at this from a root-cause perspective instead of drowning yourself in vitamin D supplements If you're thinking about taking D, already taking D, or have been told your vitamin D is "low" (it likely isn't) then this one is for you.   Mentioned in this episode:

You're showing up, doing the work, checking the boxes, but something feels…off. You're not falling apart, but you're not really okay either. And you're certainly not alone. This week on Hello Monday, Dr. Judith Joseph joins Jessi Hempel to name and unpack this experience: high functioning depression. Dr. Judith is a board-certified psychiatrist, researcher, and educator at Columbia and NYU.

Episode Summary: What if the most productive thing you could do this summer… is less? In this gentle-yet-grounded episode of the Advancing Women Podcast, we challenge the pressure to “make the most” of summer by doing more—and instead embrace the science and soul of slowing down. Host, Dr. Kimberly DeSimone offers five simple, evidence-based shortcuts to reclaim moments of real joy, presence, and restoration—without guilt or hustle. Grounded in psychology and full of permission to pause, this is your gentle invitation to swap striving for savoring, even just for a few minutes a day. In This Episode, We Explore: Why summer sometimes feels like a grind (and how to resist it) The science behind savoring: Attention Restoration Theory + Positive Psychology The power of micro-rest and ritual for combating burnout The Broaden-and-Build Theory and how joy makes us stronger 5 liberating shortcuts to lighten the mental load Here's a sneak peak! 5 Tiny Summer Shortcuts for More Joy & Less Grind: Do chores in the sunshine – Boost mood & vitamin D while still getting things done. Reclaim waiting time – Turn “wasted” minutes into mini-retreats. Make a ritual, not a routine – Infuse meaning into daily habits. Go outside for no reason – Unplug, un-goal, and let nature reset your brain. Say yes to low-stakes joy – Let go of perfection and embrace play. Manifestatement: You don't need to escape your life to enjoy your summer. You just need to insert small moments of pause, presence, and play into the life you already have.

Hey Ba Fam! It's Mandi — yes, human me! And yes, I use em-dashes in real life! This ain't Chatgpt! Ok, so you might be surprised (hopefully delighted!) to see new episode of the show in your feed on a Sunday. I used to reserve my one-on-one guest interviews for our Monday show, but you know what....Sundays make so much more sense. It's wash day. For our bodies, our hair, our dishes, that overflowing pile of laundry that's been accumulating on the side of our bed all week (I know it aint just me!)) ...maybe we're on our way to spend 5 hours at the African braiding salon getting our summer buss-down boho braids installed... whatever it is, Sunday's the day when we're all looking for something to tune into that doesn't drag us down but rather rejuvenates, reinvigorates, and resets us for the week ahead. So, here we go. Every Sunday, we're bringing you our Washday Woosahs, which are inspiring, uplifting conversations from a roster of incredible guests. For today, I hope you enjoy this conversation with the brilliant and hilarious Dr. Raquel Martin, PHD, a therapist, professor, and viral social media star whose mental health hot takes garner millions of views and genuinely make *US* feel seen. On the show, Dr. Martin dives deep into her career as a therapist and how she's working on her first book, running an incredible low-cost group therapy ecosystem for Black women (and how you can join a future cohort!).
