Grieving Out Loud: A Mother Coping with Loss in the Opioid Epidemic
Imagine going to a treatment center for addiction, only to be sent to work at a chicken processing plant for no pay. That's one of the shocking realities investigative reporter Shoshana Walter uncovered in her national investigation into court-mandated addiction treatment. Her reporting exposed how a broken system turned thousands of people into an unpaid workforce for some of the country's largest corporations—work that made her a Pulitzer Prize finalist.At the center of her story was a treatment program founded by a former poultry executive, where participants were forced into unpaid labor inside chicken plants. But that was only the beginning. In her new book, Rehab: An American Scandal, Walter reveals a multi-billion-dollar web of mismanaged treatment centers, where profit too often comes before recovery.On this episode of Grieving Out Loud, Shoshana shares what she discovered, what everyone should know about the addiction treatment industry, and what she hopes her reporting will change.Click here to purchase Shoshana's book Rehab: An American Scandal If you enjoyed this episode, you may like the following: Telling Everyone's Story While Hiding Her Own: A Journalist's Battle with AddictionCan We Save Lives While Cutting Funding?

Have you ever hesitated to recommend a treatment because you weren't sure your patient could afford it — or worried your fees would look like you're putting profit before care? Many private-practice providers freeze at the money conversation: we undercharge out of guilt, over-explain costs, or avoid talking about outcomes and value — and that leaves patients confused, underserved, or worse, exploited. That discomfort is exactly why this episode matters. The Roundtable pulls back the curtain on pricing, billing, and ethical care — we name the tension between value and access, then give you practical ways to hold both at once: clear upfront conversations about outcomes, flexible "plan B" options, warranties/refund approaches for devices, pro-bono funnels, and clinician-level boundaries that protect both patient outcomes and your team's sustainability. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL LEARN: How to frame cost conversations around value and outcomes (so patients see spending as investment, not just expense). Concrete strategies for setting and defending fee schedules while staying ethical and compassionate (including transparency, team conversations, and when to push back on insurer-driven rates). A practical, team-based clinical approach for complex concussion cases — what to assess first (vision, vestibular, neck, nervous-system regulation) and how to coordinate referrals. Real ways to increase access without going broke: pro-bono slots, low-cost/online resources, sliding plans, and negotiating efficient treatment doses that still get results. On this episode of The Roundtable we dig into the hard stuff — cost, billing, and caring for people in vulnerable positions — and we walk through a real, messy case study (Michelle's multi-system concussion) so you leave with both mindset shifts and actionable tools.

Modern athletes know that strength and endurance alone aren't enough. The ability to generate power efficiently, resist injury, and recover quickly depends just as much on the health of connective tissues—tendons, ligaments, and the extracellular matrix (ECM)—as on muscle strength itself. Yet, these vital tissues have long been misunderstood as relatively static and untrainable. The latest research proves otherwise: tendons and ligaments are remarkably adaptive, capable of remodeling and strengthening in response to targeted loading and proper nutrition. The white paper presented in this podcast distills more than a decade of cutting-edge research into a clear, evidence-based framework for improving connective tissue health and performance. Drawing on the work of leading scientists and sports medicine experts, it explains how short bouts of specific mechanical loading—paired with precise nutritional strategies—stimulate collagen synthesis, enhance tendon stiffness, and accelerate recovery. The paper also details the biological mechanisms behind these adaptations, offering a practical roadmap for both elite and dedicated recreational climbers. Whether you're looking to climb harder, rehab a connective tissue injury, or simply increase your resilience so as to stay injury-free longer, this research-driven guide provides the tools to do it. Listeners (and readers) will learn how to structure brief daily tendon-training sessions, time nutrient intake to maximize collagen synthesis, and avoid common anti-adaptive mistakes that slow recovery. Backed by peer-reviewed science and real-world application, this paper redefines how athletes can train smarter—and perform stronger—through the science of connective tissue optimization.

In this eye-opening episode of The Confident Sober Women podcast, host Shelby John sits down with award-winning investigative journalist Shoshana Walter, author of Rehab: An American Scandal. Together, they uncover the shocking realities of America's addiction treatment industry—where compassion and healing sometimes collide with corruption, exploitation, and profit.Shoshana shares the powerful stories behind her groundbreaking reporting for The Marshall Project and Reveal, which exposed how some court-ordered rehab programs forced people struggling with addiction into unpaid labor—working in factories, warehouses, and even processing plants under the guise of “treatment.” Her work sheds light on the systemic failures in the U.S. recovery landscape and the human cost of unregulated programs that prey on the most vulnerable.Shelby and Shoshana explore:How the opioid epidemic reshaped America's rehab industry—and where it went wrongThe dark history of “tough love” recovery programs rooted in Synanon and behavioral modificationWhy unregulated and for-profit treatment centers continue to thrive todayThe legal and ethical gray zones surrounding work-based rehab programsThe critical role of “recovery capital”—the internal and external supports that make lasting sobriety possibleThe devastating gap in treatment options for mothers and families, and what real reform could look likeThis conversation is a must-listen for anyone in recovery, professionals in the mental health and addiction fields, and families seeking treatment for a loved one. It's a raw, informed, and deeply compassionate discussion about what's broken—and what hope still exists for creating an addiction recovery system that truly heals.
Can you gain real muscle with isometric holds and little to no equipment? We break down a 2025 study comparing long-muscle-length isometric training to full range of motion isotonic work for quadriceps hypertrophy in trained lifters. We translate the science into simple setups you can use at home or in a hotel gym, explain why long-length positions matter, how to hit a true 10 RPE on static holds, and when to pair pre-exhaust sets with isometrics for serious growth without beating up your joints. What you'll learn: Isometric vs isotonic for hypertrophy and when isometrics can win How to find and hold true long-length positions for chest, back, quads, and hamstrings Making bodyweight isos hard enough to matter with 30-second max-effort holds Joint-friendly use cases for tendons, pain, deload weeks, and travel A plug-and-play isometric session you can try today Sample session: Pull: Chin-over-bar hold to failure, 4 sets Push: Handstand push-up iso 3 to 6 inches off the floor, to failure, 4 sets Quads: Wall sit at or just below parallel, 30-second max holds, 4 to 6 sets Unilateral: Rear-foot-elevated split-squat iso, back knee 1 inch off floor, 30 seconds, 4 sets per leg Optional overload: Pins, fixed bands, or plates on lap for wall sits Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:00 The 2025 study in plain English 03:30 Why long-length isometrics drive growth 06:50 Execution cues: 30s holds and true 10 RPE 08:30 Rehab and tendon applications 10:40 Pre-exhaust plus isos for hypertrophy 12:45 Minimal equipment programming ideas 15:10 Full sample isometric workout 20:20 Soreness, CNS load, and recovery 23:10 Movement skill benefits and coaching cues 27:45 Key takeaways and next steps Links: Free trial of our programming: https://garagegymathlete.com

Have you ever wondered why traditional recovery works for some people—but didn’t quite fit for you? This week, we’re pulling back the curtain with our friend and BJDW team member Heather whose journey to freedom started inside a rehab program that followed a 12-step model…and ended in a deeper, Jesus-led transformation. Heather opens up about what she learned, what didn’t resonate, and how she found freedom—not just sobriety—through faith, community, and truth. If you’ve ever felt out of place in traditional recovery, or wrestled with words like powerless and alcoholic, this conversation is going to set something free inside you.

In Rehab: An American Scandal (Simon and Schuster, 2025), Pulitzer finalist Shoshana Walter exposes the country's failed response to the opioid crisis, and the malfeasance, corruption, and snake oil which blight the drug rehabilitation industry. Our country's leaders all seem to agree: People who suffer from addiction need treatment. Today, more people have access to treatment than ever before. So why isn't it working? The answer is that in America—where anyone can get addicted—only certain people get a real chance to recover. Despite record numbers of overdose deaths, our default response is still to punish, while rehabs across the United States fail to incorporate scientifically proven strategies and exploit patients. We've heard a great deal about the opioid crisis foisted on America by Big Pharma, but we've heard too little about the other half of this epidemic—the reason why so many remain mired in addiction. Until now. In this book, you'll find the stories of four people who represent the failures of the rehab-industrial complex, and the ways our treatment system often prevents recovery. April is a black mom in Philadelphia, who witnessed firsthand how the government's punitive response to the crack epidemic impeded her own mother's recovery—and then her own. Chris, a young middle-class white man from Louisiana, received more opportunities in his addiction than April, including the chance to go to treatment instead of prison. Yet the only program the judge permitted was one that forced him to perform unpaid back-breaking labor at for-profit companies. Wendy is a mother from a wealthy suburb of Los Angeles, whose son died in a sober living home. She began investigating for-profit treatment programs—yet law enforcement and regulators routinely ignored her warnings, allowing rehab patients to die, again and again. Larry is a surgeon who himself struggled with addiction, who would eventually become one of the first Suboxone prescribers in the nation, drawing the scrutiny of the Drug Enforcement Administration. Together, these four stories illustrate the pitfalls of a system that not only fails to meet the needs of people with addiction, but actively benefits from maintaining their lower status. They also offer insight into how we might fix that system and save lives.

Alright girl, today I've got David Grey on the pod. If you don't know him — he's one of the most sought-after and coolest coaches in the rehab and performance space. He's worked with Olympic athletes, pro footballers, and everyday people who were told they'd never move pain-free again. What I love about David is he doesn't just chase symptoms — he changes how you move. He blends rehab, strength, and athleticism in a way that's simple, powerful, and actually works. His approach is rooted in strategy and systems. But he always starts with the goal or vision - what do you want to be able to do. (and not being in pain is not a goal). Then we reverse engineers the plan and strategy from there. We talk about why variety is the secret to resilience, why pain isn't proof you're broken, and why rehab is just training with a different name. This one's sharp, practical, and it'll flip how you see your body. Key Takeaways Rehab = Training. The only difference is pain. The process is progressive loading, intelligent exercise selection, and consistency. Variety builds resilience. Pure specialization makes you fragile; mix loads, tempos, planes, and patterns. Execution > exercise list. It's not “do calf raises,” it's own the standard and progress it (tempo, range, reps, load). Pain is nuanced, not a verdict. The biopsychosocial model matters: training load, sleep, stress, food, belief. Foundation before hacks. Walk more, eat enough, sleep, and dose your training — before you blame hormones. Joint longevity kit. Daily walking, big-toe extension, strong knees (bend + load), a supple spine (rotate/side-bend), hips that move. Goal → map → milestones. Start with the vision (play tennis, run 5K, lift), then reverse-engineer the steps and targets. Quotes “Rehab is just training in the presence of pain.” — David Gray “Variety is what keeps you resilient. Specialization without it makes you fragile.” — David Gray “Every movement has a standard — own it before you load it.” — Amy Bowe “It's not your hormones if you're under-recovered and under-fed — clean up the foundations first.” — David Gray “Pain doesn't mean you're broken; it means your body wants better capacity.” — Amy Bowe What We Cover The myth that anything sub-maximal is “useless” — and why low-load work still drives progress How David programs for athletes and everyday humans: vision → constraints → clear targets Training through pain without making it your identity Why scans rarely change the plan — and what actually does The most over-prescribed rehab trope (hi, “sleepy glutes”) and what to do instead A realistic “joint health insurance” plan for women in their 30s–40s Links & Resources Connect with David — Coach & educator at David Grey Rehab, known globally for redefining movement and rehab with precision, clarity, and results.

Summary In this podcast episode, neuroathletic performance and pain coach Jannik Schuster discusses neurocentric training, a method focusing on the brain and nervous system to enhance performance and alleviate pain. Schuster explains how he discovered this approach through personal experience with injuries and highlights its effectiveness in reducing inflammation and pain. He defines neurocentric training as targeting brain and nervous system interactions to improve performance, distinguishing it from traditional training methods that focus on biomechanical structures. Schuster emphasizes the significance of understanding the nervous system's role in pain and movement limitations, advocating for individualized approaches to address specific nervous system needs. He also discusses the integration of neurocentric training with traditional practices, the impact of visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive inputs, and the potential for neurocentric training to become more prevalent in both athletic and therapeutic settings. The conversation underscores the importance of neuroplasticity and suggests resources for those interested in exploring neurocentric training further. Guest Jannik Schuster — Neuroathletic Performance and Pain Coach, M.Sc. in Sports Science, educator, and former elite footballer. After training in the youth academy of FC Augsburg and the professional squad of FC Schweinfurt, Jannik discovered neurocentric training as a breakthrough method to unlock performance, prevent injury, and resolve pain.

Let's be honest: the decision to go into a treatment program can feel terrifying. You're juggling work, kids, a million invisible tasks—and the idea of raising your hand and stepping away (even briefly) can feel impossible. What if people judge you? What if your boss notices? What if your partner uses it against you? What if the moms at the bus stop whisper? Here's the truth I wish someone had told me: the fear of getting help is almost always louder than the reality of it. I was much more worried about what people might think if I stopped drinking than I ever was about showing up hungover on a Tuesday. (Make it make sense, right?) To pull back the curtain and demystify treatment, I sat down with Jana Wu, Director of Clinical Integration at Mountainside Treatment Center and a mom in recovery who's helped women navigate every pathway: detox, inpatient, PHP, IOP, outpatient, medication—without shame and without blowing up their lives. I asked Jana to share how to choose the right level of care, what modern programs actually look like, and how families can support—not sabotage—your healing.

Keith Shibley was the kind of cop who ran toward danger—until the danger followed him home. Starting his career with the Virginia Port Authority Police, Keith transitioned into the Richmond Police Department, where violence, shootings, and high-stakes calls were a daily reality. Seeking a new path, he returned to the Port Authority and eventually became part of an FBI task force, responding to domestic terrorism threats, high-profile shootings, and federal-level criminal activity. But while he was protecting the public, the trauma was destroying him privately. Years of front-line exposure led to crippling PTSD, driving Keith into a spiral of painkillers, alcohol, and self-destruction—all while still wearing the badge. His life and career were on the brink. Instead of losing everything, Keith made a life-altering decision: he asked for help. #FBITaskForce #AddictionRecovery #FormerCop #LawEnforcementStories #AddictionSurvivor #TrueCrimePodcast #PoliceToPrison #RedemptionStory Connect with Keith Shibley: Facebook: Keith Shibley Instagram: @keithshibley and @official_mindovermadness YouTube: @mindovermadnessmom Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Opening: Inside the Mind of a Cop — Processing Trauma and Tragedy 02:35 Meet Keith Shibley: From Virginia Cop to FBI Task Force Member 08:09 Childhood, Family Struggles & Early Trauma 17:02 Why He Chose Policing & His First Steps Into Law Enforcement 24:05 Police Academy Stories & Port Authority Beginnings 29:44 Life in Richmond Police — Violence, Chaos & Hard Lessons 36:16 Coping Mechanisms, Brotherhood & Police Culture 43:35 The Calls That Haunt You — Death, Grief & Emotional Toll 52:40 Working Domestic Terrorism & High-Risk Operations 01:00:56 The Navy Yard Shooting — What Really Happened That Day 01:12:32 Addiction Takes Over — Pills, Alcohol & Denial 01:24:52 The Breaking Point: Intervention, Rehab & Recovery 01:35:23 Overcoming Stigma & Inspiring Other First Responders 01:43:40 Mental Health, Programs & Breaking the Silence 01:49:44 Final Reflections — Healing, Hope & Purpose Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Matt interviews comedian and podcaster John Crist. The conversation focuses on comedy, what it was like getting on Jimmy Fallon, going to rehab, shame, speaking out in public when you see injustice, and what it means to be a man.
