Immunotherapy is individualized treatment designed to harness a patients' immune system to fight disease. Vaccines are considered part of immunology, but it also includes more recent innovations, like new treatments for cancer and heart disease.   Prop 38 would allow the state to borrow $8.4 billion to fund immunology and immunotherapy research, with one specific institution in mind — UCLA.

HEALTH NEWS   Small Trial Links Daily Strawberries to Reduced Menstrual Pain Scientists Test an Unexpected Sleep Aid Made From Tree Roots 90% of store receipts contain harmful chemicals linked to cancer, autism and obesity New study highlights red meat sugar as independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes Study suggests skipping sweets during antibiotic treatment may help protect the gut microbiome     Small Trial Links Daily Strawberries to Reduced Menstrual Pain University of Huelva (Spain), September 26 2026 (Natural News)     Women who added about 1½ cups of fresh strawberries to their daily diet for one month reported less menstrual pain than a comparison group, according to a small randomized trial. The trial, published in Frontiers in Nutrition, enrolled 64 women ages 18 to 35 who regularly experienced period cramps, the study stated.   The research team was interested in strawberries because they contain polyphenols, including anthocyanins, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.   Participants were randomly assigned to either continue their usual diet or add 250 grams of fresh strawberries each day for one month. After one month, women who ate strawberries daily reported significantly less menstrual pain than those in the comparison group, and the difference met the researchers' threshold for a meaningful improvement. Lower pain scores were still observed at the two-month follow-up, one month after participants stopped eating strawberries.   Scientists Test an Unexpected Sleep Aid Made From Tree Roots Kyushu University (Japan), September 28, 2026 (SciTech Daily) Falling asleep can be compared to easing down a dimmer switch, with brain activity gradually shifting as sleep deepens. Researchers studying Hinoki, or Japanese cypress, are exploring whether its scent could help smooth that transition for women in middle age, when sleep problems are common. In a small study, Japanese women aged 35 to 60 used essential oil extracted from Hinoki roots at bedtime in their own homes. Compared with an unscented control, repeated use over two weeks was associated with fewer nighttime awakenings and feeling less sleepy and more recovered from fatigue in the morning. Brain-wave recordings also showed changes consistent with a smoother transition into deeper sleep. Each participant tried the Hinoki oil for two weeks and the unscented control for two weeks. On nights when they used the oil, the women put three drops in a paper cup, inhaled the scent for 10 seconds, and left the cup about 30 centimeters, or 12 inches, from their nose while sleeping. A wearable brain-wave headband and a smartwatch recorded their sleep.   After seven days of using the oil, participants showed greater delta-wave activity around the time they fell asleep. Delta waves are slow brain waves associated with deep sleep, and the pattern was consistent with a smoother transition into deeper sleep. The improvements in morning sleepiness and recovery from fatigue were reported by day 13.   90% of store receipts contain harmful chemicals linked to cancer, autism and obesity Center for Environmental Health, September 30 2026 (The Conversation)     Approximately 90% of store receipts contain toxic bisphenol chemicals, including BPA and BPS, which are endocrine disruptors linked to serious health conditions.   Holding a single receipt for just 10 seconds can result in skin absorption of BPS above California's safety threshold.   BPS may be 100 times more potent as an endocrine disruptor than BPA, contradicting the safety of "BPA-free" alternatives.   Cashiers and retail workers face significantly higher occupational exposure, with blood tests showing elevated BPS levels after work shifts.   Consumers can reduce exposure by declining printed receipts, opting for emailed receipts and avoiding hand sanitizer before handling thermal paper. Bisphenols are classified as endocrine disruptors, meaning they interfere with the body's hormone systems that control growth, reproduction and metabolism. Research shows BPA interrupts messaging through multiple hormones, most notably estrogen. Exposure has been linked to preterm birth, abnormal fetal brain development, heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity.   New study highlights red meat sugar as independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes Université Sorbonne Paris Nord (France), September 28 2026 (News-Medical) Preliminary results of an observational study reveal that a sugar called dietary N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc), which is common in red meat, is independently associated with a 63% higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) in those with the highest versus lowest consumption, even after taking into account other T2D risk factors such as level of physical activity, overall diet, smoking status and other health conditions. The association was weaker but remained significant after also accounting for body mass index (BMI). Most mammals naturally produce a sugar known as Neu5Gc, but humans lost this ability due to an ancient genetic mutation in the CMAH gene. This carbohydrate is found in red meat (particularly beef and lamb), and to a lesser extent in dairy products. When people consume these foods, animal Neu5Gc is absorbed and metabolically incorporated into human tissues, where it acts as a foreign molecule, a so-called xeno-autoantigen. The immune system produces antibodies against it, and the resulting chronic immune activation (xenosialitis) has previously been linked to cardiovascular diseases and cancer. The analysis covered all red meat, including beef, lamb, pork, rabbit, goat, and game meats. Processed meat products (such as bacon, sausages and cured meats) were recorded as a separate food group.. Dairy products were analysed separately. People in the highest quintile had a 63% higher risk, and those in the second-highest quintile a 41% higher risk, of developing T2D compared with those in the lowest quintile (men and women combined). In the highest quintile, men ate a median of 97 g of red meat per day (136 g including processed meat) and women 73 g (96 g), compared with 5 g (21 g) and 0 g (9 g) in the lowest quintile.   Study suggests skipping sweets during antibiotic treatment may help protect the gut microbiome City of Hope, September 30 2026 (Eurekalert) A new study by researchers at City of Hope, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the country and ranked among the nation's leading cancer centers, suggests eating less sugar could protect the microbiome during antibiotic treatment.  Antibiotics disrupt the diversity of our gut bacteria, or microbiomes, which play an essential role in supporting our immune systems and overall health. In the five-year study followed patients who were hospitalized for several weeks to receive intensive chemotherapy, sometimes with radiation, to wipe out their immune systems and then undergo a stem cell transplant. To prevent and treat infections, each patient took at least one antibiotic during their hospital stay, with 80% of them taking one or more of the broad-spectrum antibiotics that exert the strongest effect on the microbiome by targeting many types of bacteria. The research team tracked 9,419 meals eaten by 173 hospitalized patients and profiled the microbiome diversity in stool samples from 158 patients. No matter how the data was analyzed, patients who consumed more sweets while taking antibiotics were more likely to experience a loss of microbiome diversity as aggressive microbes crowded out other strains of bacteria. One organism stood out: Enterococcus. When it takes over the microbiome, patients undergoing transplant face a higher risk of bloodstream infections, graft-versus-host disease and other life-threatening complications. The combination of high-sugar foods and broad-spectrum antibiotics appeared to multiply injury to the microbiome, leading to a substantial 24% drop in bacterial diversity for every 100-gram increase in sweets (equivalent in sugar content to a large milkshake).

Send us Fan MailDoes Tylenol in pregnancy cause autism or ADHD? In this edition of Neo News, Ben and Eli break down a major JAMA Internal Medicine study from Hong Kong that followed hundreds of thousands of mother-child pairs and used a sibling-matched design to answer the question. The verdict: no association between prenatal acetaminophen exposure and autism spectrum disorder or ADHD, regardless of timing, pattern, or dose. But data alone doesn't win hearts. The conversation turns to the bedside: how do we explain study methodology to families without dismissing their concerns? Eli shares his approach to vaccine hesitancy in the NICU, built on continuity, persistence, and transparency, and draws lessons from journalism about corrections, trust, and why showing up matters.

Lured Up Podcast 411: Priorities Are Hard Live Streamed on - 9/29/2026 Listen to this episode ad free on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/PokemonProfessor  Whelp. City Safari: Boston was washed out, and the Northeastern US paid the price. The Nor'easter that took out the event was no joke, with coastal flooding, 50 mph winds, and insane amounts of rainfall. With the internet being upset that Scopely Explore doesn't control the weather, at least Adam was able to enjoy his Friday night in Boston at Fenway Park. Unfortunately, he didn't leave with any Shiny Pikachu with the Fenway Background. Last weekend also had Phantump Catch Mastery, which seemed to yield way less Shiny Phantump than any other event Pokémon. Those around the world that did take part in a City Safari, were not so happy that 50% of their Research was given to the Phantump event. The rest of us made the most of the event and have been enjoying our Applin picking. With the Team GO Rocket takeover kicking off on Friday, we hope to get our fill of Balloons and we demand that you do all of them!  There are plenty of events on the calendar over the next few weeks including Space Week, the Fall Marathon Buddy Trek, and Sandile Hatch Day. After the time of this recording, we learned that the City Safari: Boston has been made into a global event on October 24th and 25th! While the Stamp Rally is cancelled, there are still Boston Exclusive Pokéstops that will award encounters with Explorer Eevee. This month was stacked before that news, now it is just wild. We will also have Max Battle Day overlapping that Saturday, which could be better received as a global event. Our Professor's Principle this week is about knowing what comes first. Priorities make the balance between having the most fun playing the game and getting what you want out of it a tough sell. Does how you wish you were playing the game align with how you actually play the game? In life, it makes sense to understand how your priorities can help shape your values, and the need to understand that when you prioritize something, it means that you are deprioritizing something else.

In the early-to-mid 1870s, as interest in Spiritualism and psychic mediums swept the United States, William and Horatio Eddy, two enterprising brothers from the tiny village of Chittenden, Vermont, made headlines for their supposed psychic abilities. In time, the brothers attracted the attention of the movement's biggest names including Henry Olcott and Helena Blavatsky, until 1875, when allegations of fraud destroyed their massive popularity.ReferencesAmerican Hauntings. n.d.

Are we focusing on the wrong thing when it comes to protein and healthy aging?In this episode, I break down fascinating new research from my friend Dr. Valter Longo that could change the way you think about protein, muscle, and longevity. The key may not be how many grams of protein you eat, but how much of one specific amino acid, methionine, you're getting.I explain what the study found, why too much or too little methionine may matter, and how mTOR, IGF-1, GLP-1, and gut health fit into the picture. I'll also share why I don't believe getting older automatically means you need to pile more animal protein onto your plate, and the protein sources I prefer for supporting strength while keeping longevity in mind.If you're over 50 or 60, eating a high-protein diet, or simply want to stay strong as you age, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Psychedelics are having a moment in mental health care. Research is showing promising results for conditions including depression, treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, and PTSD. But how much do we actually know — and how much is hype? ADAA member expert and licensed psychologist Jonathan Schettino, PhD, explains how psychedelics went from being viewed primarily as illegal drugs to becoming the subject of serious clinical research. He breaks down what happens during psychedelic-assisted therapy, why standardized dosing matters, and why treatment involves much more than simply taking a psychedelic and “tripping.” Listeners will learn: how researchers control psychedelic doses in clinical trials why psychedelics aren't yet FDA-approved treatments whether psychotherapy makes psychedelic treatment more effective The research is promising, but the science isn't settled. This conversation explains what we know, what we don't know, and why the next few years could be critical for understanding the future of psychedelic-assisted mental health treatment. Listen now!

When a woman sits across from Dr. Anna after a breast cancer diagnosis, she asks one question. What did your oncologist say caused it? Almost every time, the answer is a blank stare. Dr. Nasha Winters has lived that silence from the inside. By 19, she had collected a decade of diagnoses, including PCOS, endometriosis, IBS, anxiety, and thyroid trouble. Then she landed in the ER with a grapefruit-sized tumor and was told she was too ill for treatment. In this conversation, she shares the three things she credits with changing her path. She also explains how childhood trauma can shape the immune system and why she sees the body as a garden to tend rather than a battlefield. Dr. Nasha is a naturopathic doctor and the author of The Metabolic Approach to Cancer. She walks through the ten areas of terrain she evaluates, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio hiding in a standard CBC, and her inflammation "trifecta" of CRP, sed rate, and LDH. She explains why ringing the bell after treatment is the beginning of rebuilding. She also shares the four S's she sees as common threads in breast health. Key takeaways Recurring symptoms and diagnoses can be signals worth investigating, not just labels to manage. Dr. Nasha looks at ten areas of terrain and now starts with mental and emotional health. A standard CBC can reveal your neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio. She prefers it closer to 2 to 1. She tracks CRP, sed rate, and LDH together as a picture of inflammation and metabolic health. In her view, finishing treatment is when the work of rebuilding healthy cells begins. Research links a balanced microbiome with a better response to immunotherapy. Her four S's for breast health are sugar, stress, sleep, and sex.

What if the reason you can't get pregnant has as much to do with his health as yours? Most fertility conversations start and end with a woman's eggs and her age. Yet close to 80% of IVF cycles don't end in a live birth, and couples are spending $25,000 a round to find that out. Today I'm joined by fertility specialist Dr. Gabriela Rosa, who has spent 25 years helping couples who've been trying for four years or more. She explains why fertility is a team sport, how drinking, smoking, toxins, and age drive sperm DNA fragmentation, and why preconception care really takes 12 months, not three.  Gabriela also shares her fertility method, which produced a 78.8% live birth rate in couples who felt they'd tried everything. You'll also learn why small daily moments of joy may matter more than you think. If you or someone you love is trying to conceive, this conversation offers a clear, hopeful place to start.   "Act pregnant now to get pregnant later, having in mind that you already have within you right now 50% of the little baby that you want to create." ~ Dr. Gabriela Rosa   In This Episode: - Root causes of infertility & why fertility is a team sport - How men's drinking and THC affect outcomes - What causes sperm DNA fragmentation? - The impact of toxin exposure on fertility - Metabolic health, PCOS, and preconception care - Hormones and why testosterone backfires - Gaps in conventional fertility care - Dr. Rosa's F.E.R.T.I.L.E.

What do you think would happen if you completely ruptured your Achilles tendon with two kilometers left in a marathon? Most of us would probably assume the race was over. But Tigst Assefa's 2026 Berlin Marathon story forces us to ask a much more interesting question: how could someone experience a significant injury and still keep running at an incredibly fast pace? Assefa developed pain around 31K, eventually completely ruptured her Achilles around 40K, and still finished the race, won, and set a course record. That doesn't mean she somehow didn't have an injury or that pain is “all in her head.” It gives us a fascinating look at how the brain processes pain and how much context can influence what we actually feel.In this episode, Angie and Kevin break down the idea that pain is an output created by the brain based on much more than tissue damage alone. Your brain is constantly taking in information about what is happening in your body, along with your stress level, sleep, emotions, attention, past experiences, expectations, social environment, and how important the current situation is to you. They talk through examples ranging from phantom limb pain and the famous construction-worker nail story to elite athletes, childbirth, war injuries, and their own experiences with running and pain. The bigger takeaway is that pain isn't simply an on/off switch. It's more like a volume dial that can move up or down depending on the context.And this is where the conversation gets really practical for everyday runners. You can learn to change some of the inputs that influence your pain experience. Better sleep, reducing chronic stress, having a meaningful goal, shifting your attention outward, social connection, gentle movement, and slow breathing can all help turn the volume down. But Angie and Kevin also emphasize an important warning: becoming really good at ignoring pain isn't the goal. Pain is still a protective signal, and turning that signal down too far can allow you to continue running through an injury that needs attention. The goal isn't to become someone who never feels pain. It's to develop more nuance around what you're feeling, understand the context, and learn when to listen, when to adjust, and when you can safely keep going.00:00 – Berlin Marathon Shock01:44 – Achilles Rupture Details03:34 – Pain Comes From Brain04:34 – Phantom Pain Stories05:54 – Pain Inputs Explained08:48 – Turning Pain Down09:43 – Achilles Anatomy Q&A12:29 – Descending Modulation16:23 – Stress and Pain Effects20:40 – Elite Athletes and Pain23:51 – Research on Pain Tolerance27:01 – Training Builds Nuance29:42 – Trauma And Ultra Running31:54 – Stress Kills Pain Edge33:43 – War And Survival Analgesia39:03 – Childbirth Expectations Shift41:28 – Everyday Pain Amplifiers47:59 – How Pain Spirals In Races48:49 – Tools To Turn Pain Down54:30 – When Tuning Out BackfiresGain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

Send us Fan MailIn this Journal Club episode, Daphna reviews the first national estimate of potential neonatal organ donors, a Pediatrics cohort study from 23 Australian NICUs, along with its companion commentary. Of 1,760 infants who died in the NICU between 2012 and 2022 at 35 weeks corrected age or later, about one in three met conservative eligibility criteria. Most would have donated after circulatory death, and a smaller group with severe HIE could potentially have donated after neurological determination of death. They discuss referral timing, outcomes of en bloc kidney transplants from neonatal donors, and how NICUs can offer families this option as part of end-of-life care.----Potential Neonatal Donors in Australia: A National Cohort Study.

Send us Fan MailReal estate agents talk constantly about fiduciary duty—loyalty, disclosure, reasonable care and putting the client's interests first.But does the real estate industry actually practice what it teaches?In this episode of Dishin' Dirt, Gary Pickren takes a hard look at the conflicts between fiduciary duty and the way real estate professionals actually make money.The Sitzer/Burnett case was an antitrust case, but the compensation system it challenged raises a much bigger question: Was guaranteeing buyer-agent compensation really in the seller's best interest—or was it simply good for the industry?And after Sitzer, have we really changed?Gary examines:• Broker-to-broker compensation and why South Carolina REALTORS changed its forms• Whether compensation should be negotiated as part of the offer• Private and office-exclusive listings• The South Carolina Real Estate Commission's limited-market-exposure guidance• Research comparing private listings with broadly marketed properties• Why brokerages want to control listings and consumer data• Dual agency and the financial incentive to capture both sides• Steering, affiliated services and other everyday conflicts of interest• Why getting a client's signature isn't necessarily informed consent• Why "it's legal" isn't the same as "it's in my client's best interest"• What the next generation of real estate litigation could look likeThroughout the episode, Gary proposes one simple test every real estate professional should use:WHO BENEFITS?And an even harder question:If your compensation disappeared from the decision, would you give your client the exact same advice?Because fiduciary duty isn't really tested when doing the right thing also makes you money.It's tested when putting your client first costs you something.If the real estate industry wants consumers to view agents as trusted advisors, this is a conversation we need to have.

(Anita Gould / Flickr) Ketchikan Indian Community and two conservation groups are asking a federal court to halt an old-growth timber sale in Alaska's Tongass National Forest. The Shelter Cove sale offers about 4 million board feet of timber as part of the larger South Revilla project near Ketchikan. The groups argue logging would harm subsistence resources, wildlife. and remaining old-growth forest. KIC President Gloria Burns says Indigenous knowledge cannot be treated as an afterthought in decisions about Tribal homelands. The groups are seeking an injunction while the court considers their broader lawsuit challenging the South Revilla project. Bids for the timber sale are scheduled to open October 20. Tesuque Casino in Santa Fe, N.M. (Courtesy Tesuque Casino) Prediction markets are becoming an issue for Native American tribes who argue they are threatening their gaming revenues and thus their ability to fund vital services. As KUNM's Jeanette DeDios (Jicarilla Apache and Diné) reports, New Mexico tribes and state lawmakers are looking at taxing them. Prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket are online platforms where people wager bets on an outcome around future real-world events, like sports or elections, but because of the way they are regulated they do not usually pay taxes to states. Tribal gaming in New Mexico, however, contributed over $151 million to the state's general fund in the last fiscal year. Tribes fear that prediction markets will lead people away from gambling in tribal casinos to online markets, which people can access on their phones while on tribal lands. and tribal officials say that is a violation of the gaming rights they negotiated with the state as sovereign governments. Tribes also use those revenues for things like early education programs, housing, and healthcare. During a meeting of the Indian Affairs Interim Committee last week, Navajo Nation Council Delegate Eugenia Charles-Newton describes how prediction markets are also targeting minors to bet. Right now, with prediction markets, we know that a 10-year-old standing next to the sheep camp, they can go onto a website and they can wager a bet. Prediction market websites are classified as federal financial exchanges rather than traditional gambling platforms, which allows them to market to people 18 and older. With weak age verification on social media, minors have been reported making wagers. Prediction markets currently exist in a legal gray area and gaming officials want the state to tax them, but lawmakers raised concerns. Those include whether taxes would affect current gaming compacts, how online activity would be tracked on tribal lands, and who would collect revenue. The Mescalero Apache, along with Isleta, Pojoaque, and Sandia pueblos are suing Kalshi. The New Mexico Attorney General also filed suit in June. They are among a number of lawsuits across the country against the platforms. In response, the federal government is suing New Mexico to block the state from enforcing its gambling laws against prediction markets. (Courtesy Native Voters Alliance Nevada) Voting disparities have deep roots for people of color and new research shows New Mexico’s Native voters are likely to face numerous roadblocks at the November ballot box. Roz Brown has more. Native voters in New Mexico face many barriers to voting, including disproportionately high rejections for voter registration and mail-in ballots. The new Native American Rights Fund and Blockwell Consulting report, “Obstacles Persist”, analyzes data collected by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission from the 2020, 2022, and 2024 general elections. The report found rejected voter registration applications increased by an average of 200% in counties where Native Americans make up at least a quarter of the population. Senior staff attorney Allison Neswood says the report confirms what Native communities have long known to be true. “Their registration is getting denied, their ballots [are] getting rejected, and all of this really adds up to the systemic disenfranchisement of our people in our own homelands.” The report also outlines how disruptions at the U.S. Postal Service had a significant impact on Native voters. Even as overall mail-in voting numbers declined between 2020 and 2024, the rejection rate of ballots in areas with larger Native populations increased by 134%. Earlier this month, the U.S. Supreme Court blocked President Donald Trump's executive order, calling on the Postal Service to oversee mail-in ballots, a move plaintiffs successfully argued would have severely restricted voting by mail. The report's recommendations include expanding automatic and same-day registration to areas with larger Native populations, and paying poll workers comparable wages. Neswood says more investment is needed for voting infrastructure in Indian Country. “Making sure that our Native communities have polling locations in a reasonable distance from where they live, making sure they have registration opportunities, making sure that they can participate in mail voting.” The study focused on counties with high Native populations, including Cibola, McKinley, and San Juan counties in New Mexico along with Apache and Navajo counties in Arizona. Research by the Brennan Center in 2024 found voters of color are more likely to turn out when they live in jurisdictions where their ethnic group is the majority.

You want to host a retreat.  Great.   But please don't start by finding a gorgeous villa in Costa Rica and putting down a deposit. There is a lot that should happen first.   In this solo episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon Jamail breaks down how to get started hosting retreats, based on what she has learned from leading and hosting more than 100 retreats and owning a retreat venue.   And the first step isn't picking a location, creating an itinerary, or designing a logo. It's experiencing retreats yourself.   Shannon walks through seven steps aspiring retreat leaders should take to move from "I want to host a retreat someday" to creating a retreat business that is intentional, profitable, and sustainable.   You'll learn Shannon's 5 P's of retreat planning, why the first three come before Place and Price, how to build confidence before jumping into a multi-day retreat, why SEO and keyword research should happen earlier than most retreat leaders realize, and how to think beyond the retreat itself to create long-term relationships and recurring revenue.   If you're wondering how to start hosting retreats, this is where to begin.   In This Episode You'll Learn Why you should attend a retreat before trying to lead one Why working behind the scenes at a retreat can make you a better retreat leader The first three P's you need to define: Person, Pain/Problem, and Promise How to identify exactly who your retreat is for Why your retreat should solve a specific problem instead of trying to appeal to everyone How to create a clear retreat promise Why keyword research and SEO belong at the beginning of your retreat marketing strategy How to build confidence through workshops and smaller experiences before hosting multi-day retreats How to choose a retreat location that makes sense for your guest How to calculate retreat pricing based on real numbers and profit Legal considerations including contracts, waivers, and insurance Why your business strategy shouldn't end when the retreat does How coaching, masterminds, memberships, and other offers can create sustainable revenue after a retreat The 7 Steps to Start Hosting Retreats   1. Attend a RetreatBefore you lead one, experience one. Attend more than one if you can, but at minimum, attend one as a guest. Pay attention to the experience, not just the itinerary.   What worked?   What didn't?   How did the leader make you feel?   What happened before you arrived and after you left?   2. Work a Retreat Don't let pride get in the way of experience.   Some of the best retreat leaders (hell business leaders) started behind the scenes.   Volunteer. Assist. Check people in. Help with food. Carry bags. Clean up.   See what actually goes into creating a retreat when you're not the person sitting in the workshop.   Wanna work one of our retreats? Start here: https://mindbodycomplete.com/work-exchange-program/   3. Start With the First 3 P's Before all the pretty stuff:   PERSON: Who exactly is this retreat for?  I mean exactly.     PAIN/PROBLEM: What is happening in their life that makes them need this experience?   PROMISE: What will you help them experience, change, discover, or accomplish, and why are YOU the person to help them?  How will they be different after attending your retreat?    If you can't clearly answer those questions, you're not ready to build the retreat yet.   4. Build Your Keyword + SEO Strategy Don't wait until your retreat is finished to ask how you're going to market it.   Research what your PERSON is actually searching for.   Google. ChatGPT. YouTube. Pinterest.   Build your retreat language around the words your potential guests use, not simply the words you like.   5. Build Your Confidence You don't have to start with a five-night international retreat.   Start with a workshop.   Then a half-day experience.   Then a full day.   Then a weekend.   Build your ability to facilitate, manage a group, hold space, troubleshoot, and lead before dramatically increasing the complexity.   6. Add PLACE + PRICE + LEGAL Once the first three P's are clear and while you're building confidence, start working on the other two.   PLACE: Where should this retreat happen based on your guest, your promise, accessibility, experience, and budget?   PRICE: What does this retreat ACTUALLY cost, and what do you need to charge to make a real profit?   Not revenue.  Profit.   This is also when contracts, waivers, insurance, cancellation policies, vendor agreements, and other legal and risk considerations become critical.   7. Build the Post-Retreat Plan Before the Retreat Your retreat shouldn't be the end of the relationship.   Ask: What happens next? Could guests move into coaching? A mastermind? A membership? Another retreat? An ongoing community?   A retreat can create transformation and revenue today while also becoming the beginning of a much longer customer relationship.   Key Takeaways   Don't Start With Place This is one of the biggest mistakes new retreat leaders make.   They fall in love with a location and then try to build a retreat around it.   Start with the person.   Your Retreat Needs a Problem and a Promise "Come relax with us" isn't enough.   Why does your person need this retreat, and what are you promising to help them move toward?   Marketing Starts Before Your Landing Page Keyword strategy isn't something you add after you've built your retreat. What people are searching for can help shape your positioning, messaging, content, and offer from the beginning.   You Don't Have to Start Big Confidence comes from experience.   There is nothing wrong with leading 12 people through an incredible three-hour workshop before asking 20 people to fly across the world with you.   Revenue Isn't Profit A $50,000 retreat that costs $48,000 to produce isn't a $50,000 success story.   Know your numbers.   Think Beyond Checkout A profitable retreat business isn't necessarily built by hosting more and more retreats.   The retreat can become the entry point into a much larger business ecosystem.     The Retreat Leaders Podcast Resources and Links: Join our Mastermind in Austin!

What if some of the things you've been told a blended family should look like are actually making things harder? This episode is a special one pulled straight from our recent Stepmom Summit, where I sat down with three of the leading researchers in the stepfamily field to talk about how to make a blended family work based on what the research actually says, not what Instagram, your neighbor, or the Brady Bunch would have you believe. Dr. Brad van Eeden-Moorefield is a professor of family science and human development at Montclair State University whose research looks at how stigma, culture, policy, and the expectations placed on families affect real stepfamily relationships. Dr. Bailey M. Oliver-Blackburn is an associate professor at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock who studies stepfamily communication, conflict transformation, and family resilience, including what happens when children move between homes with very different rules, beliefs, and values. Dr. Todd Jensen is a professor at UNC Chapel Hill and director of the Thriving Through Family Transitions Research Lab. Much of his work focuses on what helps kids thrive in stepfamilies and how strong relationships between stepparents and stepchildren actually develop. And between the three of them, there is a LOT of research to unpack. In This Episode, We Talk About: Why there is no single right way to be a stepparent and what actually matters more for building a strong relationship with your stepkids What research says helps kids thrive in blended families, including warmth, timing, connection, choice, and learning to "read the room" How to navigate very different rules, routines, beliefs, and values between two households without making your stepchild feel stuck in the middle Why stepfamilies are not broken versions of first families and what decades of research tell us about creating relationships that work for your family If you've ever wondered whether you're doing this whole blended family thing wrong, this conversation may completely change the way you look at your family. There isn't one perfect formula. There are many paths to strong relationships, and the research is finally catching up to what stepfamilies have needed to hear for a long time.

Word of mouth has long been one of marketing's most powerful tools, but marketers still struggle to understand what makes it effective. On this episode, we talk with Koen Pauwels, Professor of Marketing at Northeastern University and Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Research in Marketing (IJRM), about how word of mouth has changed from the early days of social media to the age of influencers and generative AI. Pauwels' research offers several important lessons for marketers: Word of mouth can dramatically outperform paid marketing.  Not all word of mouth is equal.  Influencer marketing depends on the objective.  Online conversations are not necessarily representative.  Real buzz travels.  Generative AI makes third-party credibility even more important.  The takeaway for CMOs: word of mouth is too valuable to ignore, but too complicated to measure with a single social listening dashboard. Brands should cultivate genuine advocacy, understand what they are paying influencers to accomplish, and connect those investments to measurable business outcomes.

Research from David Reardon shows that 60% of post-abortive women would have chosen life, if they'd had the emotional and financial support they needed at the time. Adam McManus speaks with Autumn Christensen of Her PLAN about the opportunity to 660,000 lives per year without the need for law change. They discuss: - How nearly 70% of post-abortive women say that abortion is inconsistent with their values and beliefs - The fear that culture conditions into women, that they can't be a good mom – which creates systemic pressure to abort - How pregnancy often isn't the real problem, but rather the circumstances around it - The pro-life safety net that you have never heard of, featuring over 8,000 providers - How men, women, and kids can help in their local areas in ways you might not expect – plus a resource to easily match you with actual needs in your own community Take the quick quiz at https://herplan.org to see how you can contribute to the pro-life safety net.

That “vacation after the vacation” crash is not just bad luck or a weak willpower problem. We walk through a more useful explanation: travel quietly rewires your daily inputs all at once, from sleep timing and bedroom temperature to meal schedules, movement, quiet time, and even bathroom routines.We dig into what the evidence says about travel and health, starting with physiology. Research suggests ordinary domestic travel can shift markers like morning cortisol, hinting that your body is genuinely responding to the disruption. Then we tackle the big question people argue about: does travel stress “lower immunity” and cause colds? Viral challenge studies point to chronic stress as the bigger risk, while vacation-style acute stress may not be the main culprit. A simpler explanation often wins: exposure. Airports, planes, restaurants, and family gatherings put you near more people, which increases the odds of encountering a contagious person.Airplane myths get a close read too. Recirculated cabin air does not appear to be the smoking gun many assume, but dry cabin humidity can irritate airways and may slow mucociliary clearance, your nose and throat's cleanup system. We also cover practical prevention options like hand hygiene, keeping hands off your face, and deciding whether an N95 mask is worth the hassle for you.From there, we focus on the most reliable travel saboteur: sleep disruption. Large wearable data show sleep loss can begin the night before departure, and even when total sleep rebounds, sleep stages like REM and slow-wave sleep can take longer to normalize. We finish with the unglamorous but real topic of travel constipation and the simplest fixes, then land on a travel philosophy that actually works: do not optimize your vacation into a copy of home, just protect the few routines that matter most.

French President Emmanuel Macron made an extraordinary claim at the United Nations: Hamas has “never been active in the West Bank”, Judea and Samaria.That claim is a total lie, contradicted by Hamas's documented history of terrorist networks and attacks in Judea and Samaria. But Macron's statement is only the beginning of this story.In this video, Avi Abelow examines the much bigger historical and ideological questions surrounding the Palestinian national movement, the PLO, Yasser Arafat and the Soviet Union.Former Romanian intelligence chief and Soviet-bloc defector Ion Mihai Pacepa made explosive claims about the KGB's role in creating and supporting the PLO, shaping its international image and grooming Arafat as its leader. Pacepa even claimed Soviet intelligence helped reconstruct Arafat's biography and transform the Palestinian cause into a Soviet-style “national liberation” struggle. And that raises a question Western leaders rarely confront:How much did Soviet political warfare contribute to the international narrative surrounding Israel and the Palestinians?The video also examines the Palestinian Authority, its education system, payments connected to imprisoned and deceased Palestinians involved in attacks, and the continuing ideological struggle over Israel's legitimacy.Macron's statement about Hamas deserves scrutiny. But focusing exclusively on Hamas risks missing the much larger debate over the history, ideology and objectives of the Palestinian national movement itself.Watch. Think.

Days before his execution, serial killer Ted Bundy denied knowing anything about the disappearance of Nancy Baird. That didn’t stop police and the press from declaring Bundy the killer. That folklore loomed large for Nancy’s son, Brant. Meanwhile, one of the police officers who investigated Nancy’s case wandered a proverbial wilderness following his arrest for child sex crimes. In Idaho, Tom Jackson found a new family, among a community of people who knew nothing of his past. Decades later, a surprise discovery a few miles from where Nancy Baird vanished cast fresh doubt on the common belief Ted Bundy did it.

In Maumee, Ohio, 26 year old Austyn McClellan walked into a gas station and asked a stranger if he could borrow her phone. He hadn't seen his mother in nearly two years, and with several people waiting for him outside, he quietly sent her a message asking her to come get him. Then, Austyn handed the phone back and walked outside. What his mother would soon discover would reveal the disturbing reality of the life her son had been living.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

What does it really mean to become “robot-proof” in an age when AI can outperform us at so many traditional skills? Theoretical neuroscientist, AI pioneer, entrepreneur, and author Vivienne Ming argues that the answer isn't to compete with machines, but to use them to become more capable, creative, curious, and distinctly human. Drawing from her new book, Robot-Proof, Vivienne explains why curiosity, intellectual humility, perspective-taking, and resilience may matter more than memorizing the right answers. She also shares her “nemesis prompt,” makes the case for a “failure resume,” and explains why the most powerful people may be those who know how to challenge AI rather than simply obey it. Guy and Vivienne explore what happens when human imagination and AI intelligence work together—and why that combination could make us “superhuman.”--Guy Kawasaki is on a mission to make you remarkable.

Send us Fan MailIn this Journal Club episode, Ben reviews a JAMA Network Open study from two Dutch Level IV NICUs. It examined NEC before and after routine implementation of a three-strain probiotic in 1,413 infants born before 30 weeks or under 1,000 grams. NEC fell from 11.9% to 5.3%, and late-onset sepsis also declined. But non-NEC mortality rose after implementation. NEC also dropped in an unexposed reference cohort, and one infant died of B. infantis sepsis. Ben and Daphna discuss how baseline NEC rates, seasonal patterns, and number needed to harm should shape how units weigh probiotic use.----Probiotic Implementation and Necrotizing Enterocolitis Risk in Preterm Infants.

Learn more about Parkinson's and find support: https://dpf.org  Researchers are exploring a growing number of potential disease-modifying therapies for Parkinson's. But what does "disease-modifying" actually mean, and what progress is being made?  In this podcast, Chris Krueger of the Davis Phinney Foundation talks with Dr. Lorraine Kalia, a neurologist and Parkinson's researcher, about the science behind disease modification and why finding therapies that change the course of Parkinson's is so challenging.   Topics discussed include research targeting alpha-synuclein, inflammation, genetics, mitochondria, gene therapy, and stem cells, while also addressing common questions about experimental and unproven treatments. Dr. Kalia closes with a hopeful message: while researchers continue working toward tomorrow's breakthroughs, there are meaningful steps people with Parkinson's can take today to support their health, well-being, and quality of life.  Lorraine Kalia, MD, PhD, FRCPC is a scientist at the Toronto Western Research Institute and Tanz Centre for Research in Neurodegenerative Diseases. She is also a neurologist specializing in Parkinson's disease and related movement disorders at the Toronto Western Hospital.

First of all, most people are mostly positive people...believe it or not. Medical research has shown that, without prompting, the average person will spend 52% of the time on positive thoughts, with 34% of the time spent on negative thoughts and 14% that are neutral/ambivalent. That's not necessarily great; naturally spending over a third of one's time focusing on negativity isn't the healthiest or best thing to be doing...but still, the average person is mostly positive if left to their own thoughts. But why then is there so much negativity in society? The reason is that the typical person is far more responsive to negativity than they are to positivity. Research has also shown that negativity carries 1.5 to 2 times the psychological impact of positivity typically.

Reincarnation and consciousness expert Dr. James Matlock joins the program to discuss his decades of serious research in parapsychology, including the study of reincarnation. He explains that thousands of documented cases contain compelling evidence suggesting that young children may possess memories of previous lives. These cases include children recalling specific, verifiable details about deceased individuals they could not reasonably have known, along with striking similarities in personality, behavior, preferences, birthmarks, and other physical characteristics. Matlock examines what this evidence reveals about reincarnation, the nature of consciousness, and the possibility that human awareness continues beyond physical death.  This is another area in which humanity is gaining the tools to deepen our understanding of who we are. It represents a fundamental shift in Western culture's acceptance of different realities- a shift that will undoubtedly generate profound changes throughout our culture, businesses, and society.See over 750 research papers on this and more at psi-encyclopedia.spr.ac.uk.Follow Dr. Matlocku2019s Facebook group at Facebook.Sign up for the Newsletter and see exclusives now located at WestallMedia.com or still at SarahWestall.substack.com.

Lisa See joined us for September's "Bookaccino Live" Book Group event to discuss her instant New York Times bestseller, DAUGHTERS OF THE SUN AND MOON, which was a Bookreporter Bets On selection when it released in June. Lisa shared how a story that her grandmother told her when she was a child standing in downtown Los Angeles gave her the initial idea for the book. Research is always critical to her writing, and she explained how she created her three characters, basing them on four women she read about.  Lisa loves talking to book groups and has created materials to enhance the reading experience with the "Step Inside" feature on her website, as well as tea-tasting kits.  Our Latest "Bookreporter Talks To" Interviews: Amanda Peters: https://youtu.be/1ZpbCHCiD38 Jonathan Santlofer: https://youtu.be/rUk_eqMBrgk Hank Phillippi Ryan: https://youtu.be/6EjQPzlBOxw Shari Lapena: https://youtu.be/AZykCEM0ojE Chris Bohjalian: https://youtu.be/VnRpBPFctY0 Nadia Hashimi: https://youtu.be/uxVRLLQY1oA Sophie Chen Keller: https://youtu.be/bWMs3VWUC4A Ben Reeves: https://youtu.be/Jsr5c3WQPuQ Our Latest "Bookaccino Live" Book Group Events: Bruce Holsinger: https://youtu.be/wwQjtlPePBQ Wally Lamb: https://youtu.be/-eMtMznKoVE Laura Dave: https://youtu.be/RRWrSjdxyrc Lisa Ridzén: https://youtu.be/dleYdLoh0bY Patrick Ryan: https://youtu.be/keazeWK1lto Lily King: https://youtu.be/_yo2x2ZA0B0 Sign up for newsletters from Bookreporter and Reading Group Guides here: https://tbrnetwork.com/newsletters/ FOLLOW US on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bookreporter Website: https://www.bookreporter.com Art Credit: Tom Fitzgerald Edited by Jordan Redd Productions
