Through forty years of marriage, they built a life together. They immigrated to the United States, raised children, grew a business, and established a community. Six months ago, her longtime suspicion was confirmed: her husband had engaged in a twenty-five year affair with her cousin. Reeling from the truth, she questions how he could have done this to her. Overtaken with guilt, he hopes that time will heal their wounds. They arrive at Esther's office wondering what they can do to repair their relationship after this profound betrayal.

Could an enzyme deficiency explain why you have food intolerances causing bloating, loose bowels, reflux, brain fog, joint pain, skin issues, and more? Namely, sucrase isomaltase.   This enzyme, known as the sucrase-isomaltase enzyme, may be deficient in many people dealing with chronic GI issues. One study found that 8% of people were at an increased genetic risk for this deficiency (https://jpedres.org/articles/frequency-of-congenital-sucrase-isomaltase-deficiency-by-whole-exome-sequencing-is-it-really-rare/doi/jpr.galenos.2024.65625?utm_). Another study found that 25% with chronic GI symptoms had issues breaking down sucrose (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36304608/).   Thankfully, a diet exists for this which has been studied and shown to be very effective. In fact, it's been shown to be as or even more effective than some of the best diets we currently have for improving gut health – therefore maybe the best diet for gut health?   Let's break down what this enzyme deficiency is, what the diet is, SSRD, and how this diet applies and can be helpful even for those with underlying fungal or bacterial overgrowth and leaky gut.

Have you ever hit a big milestone and still felt… off? You closed the deal. You reached the revenue goal. You hit the number you've been chasing. On paper, everything looks solid. But internally? Something feels slightly empty. In this episode of the Happy Hustle Podcast, I dive into three of the ten alignments from our S.O.U.L.M.A.P.P.I.N system — the framework I use to systematically harmonize ambition and well-being. Those three are: Loving Relationships Mindful Spirituality Abundance Financially These are just 3 out of the 10 alignments, but they are powerful ones. When even one of these is out of whack, you can feel it. When all three are aligned, life hits different. Let's start with loving relationships. You can build an incredible business, but if your marriage is strained, your kids feel distant, or your friendships are surface-level, it will eventually catch up with you. Relationships are not a bonus category. They are foundational. I share the L.O.V.E.R. framework to help navigate adversity in relationships: Listen. Observe. Voice. Empathize. Repair. Most people skip listening and jump straight to defending. But communication isn't just about words. It's tone. Body language. Energy. Presence. If you want a ten in your relationship, you've got to be a ten. Then we move into mindful spirituality. This isn't about religion or rigid rules. It's about connection to something bigger than your to-do list, your ego, or your quarterly targets. When you feel spiritually disconnected, everything feels heavier. You operate from stress, urgency, and control. But when you intentionally create stillness, you regain perspective. I use the reminder C.I.T.S. — Chill In The Still. Sit down. Get quiet. Reflect. Pray. Meditate. Breathe. Even a few intentional minutes of stillness per day can shift your nervous system and your clarity. Stillness builds inner strength. Gratitude. Confidence. When you are spiritually grounded, you don't chase, you align. Now let's talk about abundance financially. Abundance isn't just about making more money. It's about how you make it and who you become in the process. Over the years, I've used a simple framework called R.O.A.D.M.A.P. to generate millions in revenue, often in 45-minute Zoom calls. Not because I'm special, but because the system is aligned. R.O.A.D.M.A.P. stands for: Rapport Obstacle Aspiration Demonstration Match Ask Pull First, build rapport. Real connection. Trust.Then understand the obstacle. What problem are they trying to solve? Next, aspiration. What outcome do they truly want? Then demonstrate. Show proof. Testimonials. Real results. Match is critical. It has to be a fit both ways. I've worked with misaligned clients before and the money is never worth the stress. Then ask clearly. And finally, pull, not push. Ethical urgency. Honest scarcity. Invitation instead of pressure. Money should not cost you your peace. It should amplify your impact. It should allow you to provide, give, invest, and grow without sacrificing your integrity. Money magnifies who you already are. If you're grounded in strong relationships and spiritual alignment, money expands that. If you're disconnected, it amplifies that too. At the end of the day, fulfillment isn't built in one big achievement. It's built in daily alignment. How you love your people. How you connect to something greater than yourself. How you steward and multiply your resources with integrity. These three alignments are just part of the ten. But if you dial them in, everything else starts to rise with them. Pause. Reflect. Realign. That's how you systematically harmonize ambition and well-being. That's how you truly put the HAPPY in your HUSTLE. Connect with Cary!

TwistedWave has dropped updates that feel like they were built for anyone smashing through a pile of auditions or VO edits every day. George walks through what's new in 32.3 and 32.4, including the ability to apply a Batch directly to your currently open file and map that Batch to a single keystroke. That means you can normalise to a target level, then apply a processing stack, all in one hit, without the old multi step workflow. Then there's the new Repair tool, a quick "auto heal" style fix for little clicks, mouth noises, and short waveform anomalies. Select the problem area, hit a key, and TwistedWave smooths it out. No fiddly sample drawing required. Also included, a friendly rant about software developers changing things that don't need changing, and why options matter.

If you have ADHD, chances are you've developed a deeply ingrained habit of apologizing — for being late, for forgetting, for talking too long, for existing in a way that feels like an inconvenience. In this episode, Nikki and Pete unpack why over-apologizing is so common in the ADHD experience and how rejection sensitive dysphoria fuels the cycle. They explore what happens on the receiving end when apologies become emotional labor for someone else, and why pre-apologizing can actually undermine your credibility and prevent others from having their own authentic reactions.The conversation moves from apology into repair — a critical distinction. Where an apology is one-directional, repair is a two-party activity built on acknowledging impact, taking responsibility, and resetting the relationship. Nikki walks through the framework of acknowledge, repair, reset, and Pete shares a powerful lesson from his own therapist: your power ends with your skin. You get to own your part, but you don't get to own someone else's forgiveness timeline. They also dig into why self-compassion isn't optional — it's the foundation that makes real repair possible.This episode also comes with a free downloadable resource: "Repair Scripts for Real Life: The ADHD Repair Guide," featuring five ready-to-use scripts for situations that come up for ADHDers every single week.

This episode covers:A thoughtful, science-based conversation about peptides, designed specifically for the peptide-curious with Dr. Chris Renna. This isn't a sales pitch or a “everyone should be on peptides” episode (I'm not!). It's an honest conversation about where peptides may fit, and where foundational health still matters more.Dr. Renna is a family physician who graduated from the University of Texas and earned his medical degree cum laude from the University of North Texas Health Science Center. Early in his career, he realized traditional medical training focused on diagnosing disease rather than creating true health, so in 1992, he founded LifeSpan Medicine, a personalized, prevention-focused practice built on concierge support and 24/7 access to care. With more than three decades dedicated to helping patients optimize their health, he's become a nationally recognized leader in preventive medicine, as well as a published author and sought-after speaker.Links mentioned during this episode:LifeSpan Clinic: https://www.lifespanmedicine.com/our-teamFree Initial Consultation with Dr. Megan: https://p.bttr.to/3a9lfYk Lyons' Share Instagram: www.instagram.com/thelyonsshareJoin Megan's newsletter: www.thelyonsshare.org/newsletter

In this heartfelt and expansive episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner is joined by Shayna Persad, yoga teacher, womb healer, astrologer, and creator of Healing with Shayna, for a powerful conversation on conscious motherhood as a path of spiritual awakening.Shayna shares her journey from a Catholic upbringing into divine feminine embodiment, womb wisdom, and conscious parenting—exploring how children act as mirrors for unhealed wounds, nervous system dysregulation, and inherited patterns. Together, Meghan and Shayna unpack the difference between conscious parenting and permissive parenting, the role of boundaries, and why many “good” children are actually responding to trauma rather than safety.This episode weaves together spirituality, psychology, astrology, and motherhood to reframe parenting not as control or hierarchy, but as partnership, guidance, and soul-level remembrance. They also explore how our views of parenting shape our views of God, authority, and agency—and why healing the “bad mom” wound is essential for feminine wholeness.00:00 | Introduction to Shayna Persad & conscious motherhood01:05 | Shayna's spiritual roots: Catholicism, angels, and the divine feminine05:55 | Yoga, Bali, and awakening into feminine spirituality08:10 | Bridging religion and spirituality12:30 | Astrology and surrender vs control15:20 | Growing up without feminine models16:40 | Healing the mother wound through motherhood19:30 | What conscious motherhood really means21:35 | Children as mirrors for inner healing23:10 | Why “good” children may not feel safe25:25 | Parenting, God, and rethinking authority29:10 | Healing isn't linear31:20 | Working with triggers in daily parenting32:50 | Journaling, meditation, and nervous system regulation35:45 | Children sharing the mother's energetic field37:00 | Using astrology to understand your child40:35 | How awareness heals trauma43:40 | Healing comes from within, not outside authority47:30 | Conscious vs permissive parenting49:30 | Modeling behavior over control50:45 | Acceptance and allowing children to be who they are53:20 | The “bad mom” wound55:25 | Why good moms question themselves56:35 | Repair, apology, and conscious parenting in practice Join the Contemplative Prayer + Meditation Q&A with Meghan and Phil McLemore, on February 16th at 7pm MT.

For Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg, the financial support and professional opportunities afforded by her fellowship at the Wexner Foundation, which plugged her into a network of the “the most powerful Jewish professionals in the country,” were substantial. But as a feminist rabbi whose most recent book is titled “On Repentance and Repair,” she felt she could not ignore the disturbing reality of the close personal and financial ties between Leslie Wexner, the benefactor of the foundation, and the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, she tells the Haaretz Podcast. In a personal act of accountability and repentance, in 2019, Ruttenberg – “shocked, disturbed and unsettled” by the early revelations regarding Epstein and Wexner – donated the funds she took from the foundation to an organization confronting sexual violence and challenged others to take similar steps. There was little reaction to her call at the time. Now, with new details revealed in the Department of Justice release of the Epstein files, she says “my only regret is not speaking out earlier and more forcefully, no matter the cost.” She warned that “when we try to pretend that none of this is happening, we feed every conspiracy theory. And when we say that who matters are raped children, and when we center the people who are harmed, and when we live the values of our Torah and of every other teaching that we claim is holy, then we dispel those theories, because we become the people who we are supposed to be … the people who are living our values.” Read more: Island Visit, NYC Flat and 'Belarusian Girls': Ex-Israel PM Ehud Barak Addresses Jeffrey Epstein Ties The Ferrari, the Meetings and 'The Redhead': Latest Jeffrey Epstein Files Reveal Ties With Popular Israeli-American Researcher Dan Ariely Memorializing Jeffrey Epstein?

Why does healing feel inconsistent — even when you're doing everything right? In this episode, Dr. Connie Cheung explains the biological hierarchy behind nervous system regulation and gut-brain health — and why most high-functioning women are unknowingly working in the wrong sequence. You'll learn:   • Why safety must come before strategy   • How nervous system dysregulation affects digestion and energy   • Why effort compounds stress when the order is wrong   • How identity and survival patterns influence symptoms   • The biological reason symptoms "move" instead of resolve 1:26 The Wrong Healing Sequence Keeping You Stuck 2:27 High-Functioning Women & Hidden Burnout Signs 4:59 Survival vs Repair vs Optimization (The Healing Hierarchy) 6:31 Sympathetic vs Parasympathetic Nervous System Explained 8:16 What "Not Feeling Safe" Actually Means in the Body 10:20 Why Gut Issues, Bloating & Food Sensitivities Persist 11:58 Stress, Cortisol, Thyroid & Hormone Imbalance Connection 13:27 Adaptation vs True Nervous System Reorganization 15:39 Safety First: The Correct Healing Order 15:59 What Is Stress Cycle Completion? 17:00 Why High Achievers Miss Nervous System Dysregulation 18:08 How to Restore Digestion, Sleep & Hormonal Balance 20:21 How to Heal the Right Way (Live Training Invitation) If you've tried nutrition, therapy, supplements, discipline, or optimization and still feel unstable — this episode explains why. Because it's not a motivation problem. It's a sequencing problem.

In this episode of Keeping Your Breast, Dr. Jenn Simmons talks with Loren Lockman, a longtime health coach and water-only fasting expert who has supervised fasts since 1996. Loren shares how fasting helped him recover from years of chronic illness and explains what the body is doing during a properly supported water fast - especially autophagy, fasting ketosis, and deep cellular repair.They also dig into why Loren believes most people are chronically dehydrated, why he does not recommend juicing (even at home), how fasting can support healing across many conditions (including breast cancer support), and why the real key is not doing more - it is getting out of the body's way with rest, simplicity, and a structured refeed.What You'll LearnWhat water-only fasting is, how it works, and why proper supervision mattersHow fasting activates autophagy and supports deep cellular cleanupThe difference between fasting ketosis and the ketogenic dietHow detoxification and immune function are connected to chronic diseaseThe influence of the pharmaceutical industry on modern nutrition and health narrativesNatural diet and lifestyle strategies that support longevityPlant-based nutrition, protein myths, and whole-food sourcingWhy hydration, electrolyte balance, and water intake are critical during fastingWho should not fast (and who typically can)Episode Timeline:01:03 Meet Loren Lockman: 38-Year Vegan & Water-Only Fasting Expert03:13 From Chronic Illness to Radical Healing09:22 Why Conventional Medicine Failed Him16:00 Healing Is a Biological Process (Not a Prescription)21:30 What Happens in the Body During a Water Fast26:30 Fasting & Cancer: Autophagy, Immunity, and Detox31:00 Processed Foods, Pharma Influence & Modern Disease33:45 Protein Myths, Juicing, and Nutritional Controversy46:45 The Science of Autophagy & Fasting Ketosis55:45 Chronic Dehydration, Intestinal Health & Aging58:45 Can Everyone Fast?

Connection doesn't usually snap. It fades. In this episode, recorded on 2/22 — a day symbolizing partnership and alignment — I share a simple ribbon exercise I did with my kids at the dinner table. What happened in real time explained so much about relationships, parenting, emotional availability…and the slow unraveling that can happen when we stop truly showing up. We talk about: • Why connection fades over time • The difference between healthy space and painful distance • Emotional misattunement (and how you can feel it) • How my marriage slowly unraveled — without one dramatic breaking point • Emotional availability and “learning to swim” • Repair in relationships (especially with kids) • When to loosen the string, when to tighten it, and when to cut it • The subtle ways we abandon ourselves — not just in pain, but in our dreams Disconnection rarely comes from one explosive moment. It happens in micro-moments — distraction, unresolved tension, repeated unmet needs, and emotional avoidance. And the most important connection you'll ever hold? The one with yourself. If you've ever felt unseen, unheard, or like something is “off” in a relationship… this episode will help you understand what's really happening — and how to begin reconnecting. Timestamps 0:00 – Connection doesn't snap — it fades 2:10 – 2/22 energy + feeling “off” 6:20 – The ribbon experiment with my kids 12:45 – The moment the string dropped 16:30 – How my marriage slowly unraveled 24:40 – “Present but not present” 29:30 – Emotional availability: learning to swim 36:10 – Healthy slack vs painful distance 41:30 – Repair, boundaries, and when to cut the cord 47:10 – The ways we abandon ourselves 54:10 – Picking up the thread again 58:30 – Reflection + this week's invitation If this resonated, share it with someone you want to stay connected to. And if you're doing the deeper work of reconnecting with yourself — physically, emotionally, spiritually — The Nourished Woman Within is open.

In this week's episode Ben Blecha and Ané discuss achilles tendinopathies and the role that bracing can play in the recovery from this injury. Ben shares the mechanics of the achilles brace, discussing how the lever arms and forces are applied with a brace, and what we need to look at to have a secure brace that does not slip down the hock. He discusses the role of the foot piece and how hero braces create an articulation with graduated increases in range of motion. We discuss the angle at which the hock is cast or braced during the initial healing phases of the injury, and much more.

If a $26,000 drone repair can be done in the field—but policy says it has to be shipped back to the manufacturer, do you really have a reliability problem… or a repair access problem?Today on the show, I'm joined by William Santos, International Sales Manager at ABI Electronics and a global advocate for the Right to Repair movement.William recently wrote a compelling article titled “Readiness Through Repair: How the U.S. Military is Strengthening Capabilities with Right to Repair,” where he explores how repair access—or the lack of it—directly impacts mission readiness, lifecycle cost, and operational resilience within the U.S. military.For decades, highly trained military technicians have been prevented from repairing mission-critical equipment due to restricted access to diagnostic tools, software, and spare parts. That model is now being challenged. In April 2024, the U.S. Army announced plans to embed Right-to-Repair provisions into both new and existing contracts—a major shift with enormous implications for reliability, sustainment, and cost control.Today, we'll unpack what this policy change really means, why repair capability is inseparable from readiness, and what lessons commercial industry can learn from the military's pivot toward repair empowerment.Willian's Posts:Exposing the Myths and Truths of the Repair Industry!https://tinyurl.com/mr47r33pReadiness Through Repair: How the US Military is Strengthening Capabilities with Right to Repairhttps://tinyurl.com/4pytbvcsABI Electronicshttps://www.abielectronics.co.ukRepair Don't Waste Podcasthttps://tinyurl.com/du8skcxk

And, we're off! Thanks, everybody, for giving our renewed Lectionary.pro format a try. Please continue to offer your comments and suggestions. Just like the original Lectionary Lab, we want to be helpful to working preachers. (“Jesus and Nicodemus”, from the Seventh-Day Adventist Bible Discussion page)RCL Readings: • Genesis 12:1–4a; Psalm 121; Romans 4:1–5, 13–17; John 3:1–17Text Summaries• Genesis 12: 1-4aGod calls Abram to leave home, security, and everything familiar, and to trust a promise he cannot yet see fulfilled. The promise is bigger than Abram's private future: through him, God intends blessing for all families of the earth. Abram's obedience is strikingly simple — “So Abram went” — and that trustful response becomes the model of covenant faith. In Lent, this text frames discipleship as movement: leaving old certainties, walking by promise, and trusting God's future over present control.• Psalm 121This psalm is a confession of trust for travelers, pilgrims, and anyone feeling exposed. Help does not come from the hills themselves, but from the Lord, Maker of heaven and earth. The psalm repeats God's “keeping” care: God watches over going out and coming in, by day and by night, now and forever. Rather than denying danger, it places vulnerability inside God's faithful attention. In a Lenten key, it teaches believers to pray honestly about risk while resting in the God who does not slumber.• Romans 4:1–5, 13–17Paul presents Abraham as the prototype of faith: righteousness comes through trusting God's promise, not through human achievement or law-keeping. If inheritance depended on performance, promise would collapse; instead, it rests on grace so that it can include all who share Abraham's faith. God is described as the One “who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist,” grounding Christian hope in God's creative power. During Lent, this text shifts the center from religious scorekeeping to grace-shaped trust and hope.• John 3:1–17Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night, sincere yet confused, and Jesus tells him that entry into God's kingdom requires birth “from above” — a Spirit-given new beginning, not mere religious competence. Jesus draws on Israel's wilderness story (the lifted serpent) to show that healing and life come through looking in faith to what God provides. The passage climaxes in God's love for the world: the Son is given not to condemn but to save. For Lent, this gospel invites people out of spiritual nighttime into rebirth, faith, and the light of God's saving mercy.Major Themes1. Faith before sight, or perhaps through sight (looking) when our focus is on God2. Promise grounded in grace3. New birth, new life in Christ4. God's keeping care in uncertain journeys5. Salvation as gift, not achievementPreaching ArcThe Call → The Keeper → The Promise → The New Birth1. The Call (Genesis 12): God calls us forward before we have full clarity.2. The Keeper (Psalm 121): We are sustained on the road by God's watchful care.3. The Promise (Romans 4): Righteousness and the future are received by faith, not earned by performance.4. The New Birth (John 3): God doesn't just improve us; God makes us new in Christ.From uncertain beginnings to Spirit-born life, faith walks forward on promise, kept by grace.A Sermon Outline“Called Before We're Ready”Core Claim: God calls us forward by grace, keeps us on the road, and gives new life through Christ.1. Opening: the discomfort of being called into the unknown2. Genesis 12: Abram's yes before clarity3. Psalm 121: God keeps us while we travel4. Romans 4: promise by grace, received by faith5. John 3: new birth is God's work, not self-improvementApplication: one step of trust this weekClosing: we go because God is faithfulOne-sentence takeaway: In Christ, we are called, kept, and made new — so we can take the next faithful step even without full certainty.An Illustration: Does anybody remember the Dunkin' Donuts commercial that featured a bleary-eyed baker rising early every morning, saying, “Time to make the donuts?” Believe it or not, that's a basic illustration of faith in something intangible. A baker starts work at 2:00 a.m. There is no smell of fresh bread yet, no customers, no visible result — just measured ingredients, kneading, waiting, and trust in the process. Hours later, what was unseen becomes nourishment (of a sort) for many.Preaching Bridge: “Faith is often bakery work: done in the dark, trusted before dawn.” (Image from the Upper Room, Discipleship Study Guide)Narrative Lectionary Text: John 13:1-17Text SummaryAt the supper before his passion, Jesus rises, takes a towel, and washes the disciples' feet. Peter resists, then overcorrects, and Jesus teaches that receiving him means accepting this upside-down pattern of love. Jesus, their Lord and Teacher, performs a servant's task and commands them to do likewise. Greatness in his kingdom is expressed through humble, embodied service.Themes Present1. Servant leadership — authority in Jesus is expressed through self-giving care.2. Love made concrete — love is not sentiment; it takes the form of action.3. Receiving before doing — discipleship starts with letting Christ minister to us.4. Humility over status — the gospel dismantles rank-driven identity.5. Imitation of Christ — “as I have done for you” is the shape of Christian community.Preaching ArcIdentity → Humility → Command → Community1. Identity: Jesus knows who he is and where he is going.2. Humility: Secure in that identity, he kneels to wash feet.3. Command: “As I have done for you, you also should do.”4. Community: The church becomes recognizable by practical, mutual, humble love.Because Christ stoops to serve us, we are formed into a people who serve one another.A Sermon Outline“The Towel and the Basin”Core ClaimJesus redefines greatness through humble service, and discipleship means receiving his love and then embodying it toward others.Big MovementStatus → Surrender → Service → WitnessOutline (7–8 min)1. Opening: Our instinct for rank• We naturally measure importance by visibility and control.• Jesus gives a different picture at the table.2. John 13: The shock of the scene• Jesus knows who he is and where he is going.• Precisely from that security, he kneels and washes feet.• True authority is not threatened by service.3. Peter's resistance: Why this feels hard• Peter resists being served.• Discipleship begins with receiving grace, not performing for God.• We cannot give what we refuse to receive.4. “As I have done for you”• Jesus moves from act to command.• Foot washing as pattern: embodied, practical, inconvenient love.5. What this means for a small (or any) congregation• Hidden service is central ministry, not secondary work.• Church health is measured by how we treat one another in ordinary moments.• The towel may look like meals, rides, prayer, repair, listening, forgiveness.Application for the week• Receive: where do I need to let Christ serve and cleanse me?• Serve: one concrete act of humble care.• Repair: one relationship step that lowers pride and raises love.Closing• Jesus is most recognizable when kneeling with a towel.• The church is most faithful when it does the same.One-Sentence TakeawayIn Christ's kingdom, greatness looks like a towel and basin: we receive his love, then kneel to serve.An Illustration: “The CEO with a Mop”A story gets told in leadership circles about a company after a major event: everyone leaves, trash is everywhere, and the cleaning crew is short-handed. One employee comes in early and sees the CEO quietly pushing a mop and picking up cups. No announcement. No photo. No speech. Just service.That moment reshaped the office culture more than any memo did. People said, “If he can do that, none of us are above serving.”John 13 is deeper than leadership technique, but the point lands: Jesus, knowing exactly who he is, takes the towel. Real authority is not threatened by humility.Preaching bridge: In Christ's kingdom, the towel is not beneath us. The towel is how love becomes visible. This is a public episode.

Today, we're diving into a paper that reviews the long-term outcomes following arthroscopic Bankart repair and challenges some of the historical narratives around this procedure.The study that we are reviewing today is titled “Long-term Outcomes of a Contemporary Arthroscopic Bankart Repair Technique in Patients With Traumatic Anterior Shoulder Instability: A Minimum 10-Year Follow-up.” This is a minimum 10-year follow-up study looking at modern arthroscopic Bankart techniques using at least three anchors — and it asks: Are recurrence rates still as high as we've been taught?

In this follow-up to one of their most difficult episode to date, Lauren and Trey sit back down in the chairs just 48 hours later. Often in the world of relationship content, we see the "before" and the "after," but we rarely get to witness the messy, fragile middle. This conversation is a raw demonstration of what it looks like to navigate a major wounding in real-time, without rushing the healing process or demanding a premature return to normal.Trey shares the deep work he has been doing with his professional support, identifying the shadow side that led to his recent dysregulation. He explores the archetypes of the martyr and the victim, and how his fear of being trapped triggered a hostile takeover of his behavior. He discusses the importance of installing early warning systems and taking full ownership of his own mind, rather than expecting his partner to be his therapist.Lauren reflects on the physiological toll of relational trauma and the "horrified clarity" of the past few days. She shares the reality of moving through the world with a "shook" nervous system, experiencing; nausea, poor sleep, and a total lack of sexual desire as her body prioritizes its own safety. She discusses the power of being allowed to take up space in her rage and grief, resisting the patriarchal script that tells women they must hurry up and heal to keep their partners comfortable. Even while continuing her professional work with clients, she is navigating the challenge of remembering her own values and making her own healing a priority.This conversation is a demonstration of how trust is regained through play, structure, and clear limits. They experiment with slow, intentional touch, like a back scratch or laying on a chest, while maintaining a strict timer to protect Lauren's sense of safety. They navigate the reality that sexual desire belongs on the back burner during a season of repair, honoring the first principle of pleasure: the freedom of personal choice. This is an invitation to witness two people choosing to stay in the discomfort of a "critical mass" moment, valuing the slow, honest process of rebuilding over a quick fix.Request your free 15-minute consult at sexedforyou.com/freeconsult.About ThemLauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia, where Lauren owns and operates Sex Ed for You.

What happens when a relationship doesn't explode … it just disappears?   In this episode of The Unlock Moment, I'm joined by high-profile US psychologist Dr Josh Coleman to unpack why estrangement happens - and what actually helps when you want to rebuild a relationship that's been lost to distance, conflict, or silence.   We explore the major pathways to estrangement (including cultural change, divorce, political differences, and therapy narratives), why the “old rules” of hierarchy and obligation no longer land the way they once did, and what repair really requires when guilt, logic, and authority fail. Josh shares a practical, compassionate framework for reconciliation: easing off the armour, learning a new language for hard conversations, and understanding a counterintuitive truth - the person who wants the relationship most often has to lead the repair.   This is a conversation about humility without collapse, warmth with strength, and how trust is rebuilt one honest conversation at a time - in families, in teams, and in any relationship that matters.   More from Dr Josh Coleman: Website: DrJoshuaColeman.com Substack: joshuacolemanphd.substack.com The Unlock Moment is hosted by Dr Gary Crotaz, PhD — executive coach, speaker and award-winning author.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode Host Carm Capriotto dives into the untapped power of Shop Management Systems (SMS) with business coach Dave Schedin and Ben Dexter, National Training Manager at NAPA TRACS. Together, they reveal how two often-overlooked tools, categories and canned jobs, can dramatically improve shop efficiency, consistency, and profitability. The conversation highlights how a smarter system setup leads to faster workflows, clearer data, and stronger decision-making. Key Topics Discussed Unlocking the Power of Categories: Dave Schedin explains the importance of tracking three core labor types: Diagnostic, Preventative Maintenance, and Repair. When categorized correctly, shop owners can pinpoint exactly where time and money are gained—or lost. Building the “Superhighway” to Faster Estimates: Schedin compares developing Canned Jobs to constructing a freeway: it takes an upfront investment of time, but once built, it enables rapid, efficient estimating. Professional Communication: Canned jobs help replace vague descriptions with clear, value-focused explanations. This allows newer advisors to communicate like seasoned professionals while ensuring consistent pricing, messaging, and storytelling across the shop. Turning Data into Profit: Ben Dexter reinforces the principle of “garbage in, garbage out”: without clean, organized data, shop owners are simply guessing. By mastering categories and canned jobs, shop owners can turn their management system into a powerful engine for clarity, consistency, and long-term profitability.

Previous studies have shown that arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) for the treatment of anterior shoulder instability (ASI) may lead to high rates of instability recurrence and revision surgery at 10-year follow-up, but data on 20-year postoperative outcomes are scarce.   In conclusion, about 1 in 3 patients reported instability recurrence or redislocations, and 1 in 5 underwent further surgery. In patients who did not undergo further surgery, good to excellent shoulder function as well as low pain and instability levels were observed at a minimum 20 years after ABR. The presence of inferior glenohumeral laxity was associated with a higher risk for subjective reinstability, and the use of fewer anchors was associated with redislocations.   Click here to read the article.

▶️ Connect with Richard on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardatherton-firsthuman/ What happens when trust breaks down in relationships, in leadership, in organisations?   In this episode of Being Human, I speak with Dennis and Michelle Reina, founders of the Reina Trust Building® Institute and authors of Trust & Betrayal in the Workplace. Drawing on decades of research and lived experience, they explain why trust is far more fragile than most leaders realise, and why rebuilding it requires courage, accountability, and choice.   We explore the three dimensions of trust, how victimhood traps us in blame, and why trust repair is not about forgetting but about responding differently. This is a deeply human conversation about conflict, repair, and responsibility, relevant to leaders, partners, and anyone navigating broken expectations.   We discuss: Growing up with an alcoholic father Why trust is fragile The anatomy of betrayal Victimhood vs responsibility Practical steps to rebuild trust Links: Reina Trust Building

How to love yourself after a breakup can feel impossible when your self-esteem is shattered and your ex still lives rent-free in your nervous system. When a relationship ends, especially a painful or toxic one, it doesn't just break your heart — it can break your trust in yourself. You may find yourself obsessing over your ex, checking their social media even though it hurts, replaying conversations, or wondering what was wrong with you. Low self-esteem after a breakup often isn't just about rejection. It's about the shame of feeling like you abandoned your own boundaries trying to keep someone who couldn't love you back. In this episode, we're talking about what it really takes to repair your self-esteem and rebuild your sense of personal power. I'll walk you through why heartbreak recovery can feel like withdrawal from an addiction, how attachment loss hijacks your brain, and why the most painful thought is often not “They left,” but “Why did I let this happen?” If you've been trying to figure out how to love yourself after a breakup while still feeling pulled toward someone who wasn't good for you, this episode will help you understand what's happening and how to shift it. We'll explore five concrete steps to repair your self-esteem: recognizing self-betrayal patterns, understanding the addictive pull of contact and validation, seeking support instead of isolating, recommitting to loving yourself through behavior, and creating a plan for the moments when you're tempted to go backward. Real self-esteem is earned through action: every boundary you set, every time you resist checking their profile, every moment you choose dignity over desperation. That's how you repair your self-esteem. That's how you rebuild confidence. That's how you love yourself after a breakup in a way that lasts. As you listen, you might realize you've been trying to heal through them. What actually helps is rebuilding your relationship with yourself.

Non-monogamy isn't just more love. It's more feelings, more conversations, and sometimes… a lot more processing.In this episode, I'm sitting down with Candace Sogren, lawyer, former CEO, emotional intelligence facilitator, mom, and author of Poly Agony. She's been ethically non-monogamous for over 20 years, raising a child in community, building non-traditional family structures, and living this life fully out loud.And we're not talking about the cute, Instagram version of polyamory.We're talking about the mistakes. The broken agreements. The repair conversations. The parenting realities. And what it actually takes to make this sustainable.We get into:→ The most common mistakes couples make when opening→ Why repair matters more than perfection→ Raising kids in open relationships without shame→ Transparency vs. disclosure (especially with children)→ Introducing partners in healthy, grounded ways→ The emotional labor of loving more than one personCandace also shares a powerful story about advocating for non-traditional families after being denied custody of children because of her polyamorous identity.This episode is for you if you're opening a relationship, parenting while poly, or just trying to build something that actually fits your heart.Send a textFLOW Nitric Oxide BoosterFLOW brings blood where you want it to go — your brain, your heart, and your pleasure zones.

Repair in relationships isn't just about saying sorry — it's about understanding what your body needs after conflict and having the courage to ask for it.In this live episode, Georgianna shares a sweet story about waking up still feeling residue from last night's argument, even after it was "resolved." She realized she needed morning reconnection to feel complete, while her partner's system was done the moment they made up. When she named her need without shame, he set a daily 7am reminder to check in — not because she demanded it, but because he genuinely wanted to meet her there.This is what real repair looks like: noticing what's true in your body, speaking it without making yourself or your partner wrong, and trusting them to show up in their own way.We walk you through why some people need next-day repair while others don't, how to stop oscillating between "I suck" and "they suck," and how tiny body-based practices help you access clarity about what you actually need.What You'll Learn:Why resolution doesn't always mean your nervous system is done processingHow to ask for what you need without shame or blameThe difference between attacking and speaking from clarityWhy body awareness is the foundation for relational honestyHow to stop making yourself wrong for needing things your partner doesn't needResources Mentioned:Self-Compassionate Body-Based Toolkit (our self-led practice studio)Somatic Sessions (twice monthly live body connection practices)Conscious Relationship Training (next cohort starts March 14th)If you're tired of seething silently or pointing fingers, this episode offers a grounded, embodied path toward speaking your truth and experiencing real repair.Keywords: relationship repair, nervous system healing, conflict resolution, somatic practices, attachment healing, emotional needs, communication skills, body awareness, conscious relationships, relational repair

In this episode, Kim Olver continues her conversation about couples by exploring the quiet ways we unintentionally hurt our relationships — and what we can do to repair and strengthen connection.Most relationships don't fall apart because of dramatic betrayals. They erode in subtle ways: defensiveness instead of empathy, withholding small acts of kindness, quiet scorekeeping, control disguised as concern, and unspoken unmet needs. Over time, these small moments create emotional distance — inch by inch.Drawing from decades of counseling experience and the principles behind Choice Theory, Kim unpacks:Why explaining can feel like dismissingHow small daily kindnesses protect intimacyThe hidden fear beneath controlHow keeping score damages emotional safetyWhy naming your needs builds connection instead of criticismIf you've ever thought, “We don't fight — we just feel distant,” this episode will help you understand why distance happens and how to close it.If you'd like to explore these ideas more deeply, Kim's book Secrets of Happy Couples: Loving Yourself, Your Partner, and Your Life is currently available while remaining copies last. Originally published in 2011, this edition reflects the language norms of its time. A thoughtfully revised edition is planned for the future. You can learn more or order a copy here.Because love rarely collapses from one catastrophic event — it fades through small, unaddressed moments. And it rebuilds the same way.

#199 - Healing Eczema from the Inside Out: Toxins, Steroid Withdrawal & the Identity Shift That Changes Everything with Kat Vong If you've ever looked in the mirror and felt betrayed by your own skin… If you've been told “it's just genetic” or “here's another prescription”… If you're quietly wondering whether something deeper is going on— Stop scrolling. This episode is the one you've been waiting for. Today I'm joined by my friend Kat Vong—host of the Well Done podcast and founder-in-the-making of a clean beauty brand for women with chronic skin struggles. Kat's story is raw, emotional, and wildly empowering. After years of battling off-and-on eczema that left her in physical pain and emotional exhaustion, Kat's body erupted in severe eczema just three weeks before her wedding. We're talking weeping wounds. Steroid injections. Oral steroids. Topicals on repeat. And that was just the beginning. What unfolded over the next several years included topical steroid withdrawal, toxic overload, leaky gut, postpartum depression, a NICU stay with twins at UCLA—and ultimately, a complete identity shift that changed everything. This conversation is about more than eczema. It's about the skin–gut–toxin connection. It's about stress, identity, and the nervous system. It's about what happens when you decide to heal—and cut off every other option. The best news - whether it's your skin or something else, healing.is.possible. In This Episode, We Cover: Heavy metals, phthalates, parabens—and how toxic burden shows up in your skin Leaky gut and why “everything” can suddenly become a trigger Why detox can initially make flares worse The missing piece in chronic healing: identity and mindset The hidden dangers of long-term topical steroid use What topical steroid withdrawal (TSW) actually looks like The beauty industry's blind spots—and what needs to change Practical skin barrier repair from the inside out How meditation rewires your biology (yes, really) Timestamps 00:00 – Meet Kat: severe eczema, beauty industry insider, and the wedding-week flare from hell 02:00 – Three types of steroids in three weeks (and why that mattered later) 03:30 – When the flares came back worse than before 05:00 – Discovering topical steroid withdrawal (TSW) and sleeping on towels 08:00 – The functional testing that changed everything: toxins, gut, inflammation 09:30 – Heavy metals, parabens, phthalates, mold—and why her practitioner was shocked 11:00 – Leaky gut, gluten markers, and the “everything is a trigger” phase 12:00 – Detox + TSW: when healing looks worse before it gets better 13:30 – Pregnancy, temporary glowing skin, and the devastating steroid shot before delivery 15:00 – NICU, postpartum depression, and the emotional toll of skin disease 18:30 – The surprising non-food trigger most people ignore: toxic burden 20:00 – Stress as gasoline on the inflammatory fire 21:30 – “You can't drain the bathtub if the faucet's still running.” 22:30 – Identity work: “I am someone who has eczema” vs. “I am someone who heals.” 26:00 – The meditations that changed her brain (inspired by Joe Dispenza and his books Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself and You Are the Placebo) 29:00 – The desperation loop that keeps people stuck 30:00 – Decide vs. choose: cutting off every other option 31:30 – Skin barrier repair explained simply (bricks + mortar analogy) 34:00 – Makeup, shame, leadership, and not feeling “enough” in the beauty industry 37:00 – Beauty, identity, and self-worth beyond appearance 39:00 – If you feel stuck, here's what you need to hear 41:00 – Turning pain into purpose 42:00 – Kat's upcoming clean beauty brand for chronic skin conditions Let's Talk Root Causes What struck me most in this conversation? It wasn't just the heavy metals or the leaky gut (although yes, those matter). It was this: You cannot heal in the same identity that created the illness. I've seen this over and over in clinical practice. We can remove inflammatory foods. We can support detox pathways. We can rebuild the gut lining. But if someone still believes, deep down, “This is just who I am”… the body listens. Kat didn't just detox her liver. She detoxed her identity. And that's where the shift happened. If You're Struggling with Chronic Condition Right Now… Here's your gentle but firm nudge: Get proper testing. Guessing is exhausting. Reduce inflammation first (you can't drain a bathtub with the faucet running). Support detox pathways before aggressive detox. Repair the gut lining. Regulate the nervous system daily. Decide that healing is happening—even if your eyes haven't caught up yet. Your body is not broken. It's communicating. And as someone who has walked countless women through chronic conditions, autoimmunity, skin flares—I can tell you: when we address toxins, gut integrity, stress, and identity together… things change.

And honestly? It's about time. If this episode resonated, send it to the friend who keeps saying, “It's just my hormones,” or “I guess I just have sensitive skin.” Sometimes it's not just sensitive skin. Sometimes it's your body asking for a new story. And that story? It can end very differently than it began.   ✨Join the conversation: Share your thoughts with us on social media or in the comments!

Today on the Awesome Marriage Podcast, we're joined by Dan Purcell, creator of Get Your Marriage On! and the Intimately Us app. Dan is passionate about helping Christian couples build stronger, healthier marriages through better communication, playful intimacy, and gospel-centered connection. In this conversation, we explore the powerful link between spiritual and sexual intimacy in marriage. From God's design for sex to common misconceptions, practical habits, and healing struggles in the bedroom, Dan shares how faith and intimacy were always meant to work together. This episode offers encouragement and actionable wisdom for couples who want to honor God while cultivating deeper passion, joy, and closeness in their marriage.   Episode Highlights: Experiencing really good sex in marriage requires living with virtue. What works in marriage will change over time. You must be willing to adapt together. Repair work is most of the work in marriage.  Quotes from this Episode: This is a gift from God. He gave it to us to enjoy. You can't love a person you don't know. The more honest we can be about things, the better our marriage will be. Sex can be really fun. It can be incredibly replenishing. It can be good for your health. You want to get to a place where you're at ease talking about sex.    Questions Worth Discussing: What part of this conversation felt most relatable to where we are right now? Did anything we heard make you think differently about how our faith and our intimacy connect—or even just spark a new thought? What's one small way we could be more intentional with each other this week—emotionally, spiritually, or physically?   Mentioned in this Episode: Get to know Dan Purcell Listen to the Get Your Marriage On!

Brian and Kristen return after completing their homework: mapping their recurring conflict pattern step-by-step. And something shifts. Instead of focusing on who's right, they begin identifying when the pattern starts, how it escalates, and where they might choose something different. They talk about having a “good week,” more laughter, and fewer misunderstandings—but Zach presses deeper: Was it luck, or was it intentional? What unfolds is a layered conversation about stress, chronic pain, medication changes, PMS, defensiveness, and the powerful internal story Brian carries that says, “If there's a problem, it must be me.” Zach helps them connect the dots between depression's lies, physiological stress, and how quickly neutral requests can turn into personal threat. The couple names their 10-step pattern openly—fight or flight, overthinking, mounting a defense, physical withdrawal—and begins experimenting with something new: interrupting the script before it reaches step six. This episode isn't about resolution. It's about pattern awareness and learning how to redirect before old muscle memory takes over. They close by identifying the next layer to explore in Episode 3: their over-functioner / under-functioner dynamic—and how it triggers deeper family-of-origin wounds. Key Takeaways A “good week” is often intentional, not accidental Externalizing the problem (“us vs. the schedule”) strengthens the team Physiological stress (sleep, pain, hormones, meds) directly impacts conflict Depression distorts perception and reinforces “I'm the problem” narratives Defensiveness often protects something deeply valuable Mapping a conflict pattern creates space for choice Interrupting the script—even once—builds momentum Repair matters more than resolution “Something new” is the antidote to “more of the same” Learn more about your ad choices.

If you feel like you're not a priority in your relationship, this episode gets straight into why it happens and what to do next. You'll hear a real listener situation where “two hours of gaming” turns into four, plans get brushed off, and feelings get minimized with phrases like “it's not a big deal.” We break down what follow through actually communicates, how dismissing your reality can become gaslighting, and how to set a boundary without begging, chasing, or exploding.You'll also learn how to repair after conflict, rebuild trust when someone avoids accountability, and create a relationship culture where connection is the standard. We go deep on intimacy versus sex, why many couples confuse the two, what emotional intimacy looks like in daily life, and how to bring back desire without pressure, resentment, or “chore” energy. Expect clear language, practical communication tools, and a direct framework for getting respect, consistency, and real closeness back on track.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.
