Chronic stress triggers a neutrophil invasion into brain-protective layers, driving depression-like behaviors through immune activation rather than just hormonal changes Stress-induced immune signals hijack brain reward circuits, reducing dopamine and shifting neural activity toward threat detection over pleasure-seeking behaviors Prolonged stress damages brain mitochondria, reducing cellular energy production while creating an inflammatory feedback loop that worsens mood and cognitive function Interferon pathways and inflammatory cytokines like IL-6 cross into the brain, directly altering neuron firing patterns in emotional regulation centers Natural interventions including healthy carbohydrates, regular exercise, positive thinking, creativity, and physical touch help counter stress-induced immune activation and protect mental health

PREVIEW. Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and Nuclear Proliferation Risk. Henry Sokolski discusses declassified communications indicating that 20% enriched uranium is sufficient to build a bomb, which is the enrichment level proposed for Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). SMRs are embraced by the political class because they provide the massive electricity required by AI and tech centers. Both political parties are criticized for indiscriminately supporting nuclear generation.

Ahead of the United Nations 30th annual climate conference, Bill Gates released a memo that, you could say, surprised a lot of people. That's because in this memo he seemingly changed his position on climate change, acknowledging that there is no “doomsday” risk from global warming.Now, the memo is long (it's over 5,000 words) and it's filled with data, graphs, charts, and anecdotes—laying out the argument that climate change is not going to lead to the end of civilization, that measuring temperatures isn't the best measure of progress on the issue, and that thirdly, the money being spent on climate related issues would be better allocated towards improving human health and prosperity.

In this episode of The Modern Man Podcast, host Ted Phaeton engages with Rick Walker, author of 'Nine Steps to Build a Life of Meaning.' They discuss the importance of family, the challenges young men face today, and the necessity of embracing failure as a pathway to growth. Rick shares practical advice for daily improvement, the value of reading old books, and how facing fears can lead to personal development. The conversation emphasizes the significance of community, accountability, and the pursuit of a meaningful life.   Takeaways Too many men are winning on paper, but losing themselves. The most important thing we do is who we raise. Life is merely a string of failures with occasional moments of perfection. Pain ultimately becomes the only pathway to joy. The purpose of a good man is to invade the evil that he sees around him. The two shall become one, it doesn't say that you stop being one flesh. The thing that you least want to do is the thing you most need to do next. If you don't know what you want, find out what you don't want to exist. The older the sage, the quicker the solution. If one man's done it, another man can do it.

Girlfriend, if you've fallen in your recovery - if you've had a setback, slipped back into old behaviors, or feel like you're not where you "should" be - this episode is for you. This morning, Lindsey was walking her 7-year-old son Blake to school when he fell hard while skipping in Crocs. Through his tears, he looked up and said, "I guess I shouldn't skip so fast to school." And in that moment, Lindsey realized something profound: Sometimes the fall is required. Not because we want to hurt, but because without the fall, we wouldn't learn any other way. In this vulnerable episode, Lindsey shares her own painful fall in recovery - when she was lying to her treatment team, telling everyone she was "doing the things" while secretly still restricting out of fear. Her results weren't matching her actions, and she felt defeated. But that fall? It became her turning point. Drawing from her figure skating background (landing her first double loop took countless falls), Lindsey reveals why falls aren't failures - they're required education. She addresses the shame that comes with relapsing, gives you permission to be right where you are, and shows you how to get back up without beating yourself up. If you've been too afraid to risk falling or too ashamed to get back up, this episode will change everything. In This Episode, You'll Hear: Blake's Fall: The Morning Walk to School How her 7-year-old fell hard while skipping in Crocs The mama moment of dusting him off and helping him up His profound realization: "I guess I shouldn't skip so fast" Why she knew he needed that fall to learn The parallel to recovery that changed her perspective Lindsey's Recovery Fall: The Painful Truth When she was lying to her treatment team about doing "the things" The internal defeat of results not matching actions One side wanting weight gain, the other side feeling betrayed and terrified Beating herself up for not being "further along" The turning point: getting real and honest with herself Why that fall propelled her forward more than smooth sailing ever could The Figure Skating Metaphor: Landing the Double Loop Falling over and over trying to land her first double loop jump How each fall taught her something new (angle, timing, fear, adjustment) Why it became her favorite jump BECAUSE of the falls, not in spite of them The parallel: recovery is learning a jump you've never done before The Shame of Falling in Recovery Why Blake was embarrassed when he fell (other kids watching, teacher saw) The truth: shame isn't about the fall, it's what you make it mean about you Your fall doesn't mean you're a failure, weak, or not worth the effort It just means you're learning Why Lindsey eventually saw her falls as necessary How falls are setups for breakthroughs, not just setbacks You Are Right Where You Need to Be Not where you want to be, but where you need to be You can't skip ahead or bypass the lesson The truth: you can't change what you won't acknowledge You can't heal what you won't feel You can't grow without falling The fall isn't the end of your story - it's the beginning of your breakthrough Key Takeaways: ✨ Sometimes the fall is required - without it, we wouldn't learn any other way ✨ Falls aren't failures, they're required education - each one teaches you something ✨ Shame isn't about the fall - it's about what you're making the fall mean about you ✨ You are right where you need to be - not where you want to be, but exactly where you need to be to learn and grow ✨ You can't change what you won't acknowledge - getting honest is the first step to getting back up ✨ The fall is setup for your breakthrough - not a setback, but preparation for progress ✨ Recovery is learning a jump you've never done before - of course you're going to fall multiple times ✨ Staying stuck is its own kind of fall - it's just slower, more painful, and doesn't teach you anything ✨ You don't have to get up alone - reach out for help, let someone stoop down to your level Powerful Quotes from This Episode: "Sometimes the fall is required. Not because I want you to hurt, but because without the fall, we wouldn't learn any other way" "I guess I shouldn't skip so fast to school" - Blake, age 7 "I was telling everyone I was doing the things, but in reality I wasn't because I was scared" "The results weren't matching my actions and I felt so defeated internally" "One side of me wanted weight gain because I knew I needed it. The other side felt betrayed and terrified" "That fall was my turning point. Once I got real and honest with myself, I could finally do something about it" "I fell SO many times trying to land that double loop. It became my favorite jump not in spite of the falls, but BECAUSE of them" "The falls weren't failures. The falls were required education" "The shame isn't about the fall. The shame is about what you're making the fall mean about you" "Your fall doesn't mean you're a failure. It just means you're learning" "I eventually saw my falls as necessary. I don't think I would have made the progress I made without falling multiple times" "The falls weren't setbacks. They were setups for my breakthrough" "You are right where you need to be. Not where you want to be, but where you need to be" "You can't change what you won't acknowledge. You can't heal what you won't feel. You can't grow without falling" "The fall isn't the end of your story. It's the beginning of your breakthrough" "Recovery isn't about never falling. Recovery is about learning to get back up" "Staying stuck is its own kind of fall. It's just slower, more painful, and doesn't teach you anything" How to Get Back Up After You Fall: Step 1: Stop Beating Yourself Up Stop making the fall mean something about your worth. The fall is data. It's information. It's feedback. It's not a judgment on who you are. Step 2: Get Honest Really honest. With yourself first, then with your treatment team, support system, and your people. Say: "I fell. Here's where I am. Here's what I need." Step 3: Reach Out for Help Just like Lindsey stooped down to Blake's level to dust him off - you don't have to get up alone. In fact, you shouldn't. Let someone help you back up. Step 4: Take the Lesson Forward Blake learned not to skip so fast. What are YOU learning from this fall? What does this fall need to teach you that you couldn't have learned any other way? Step 5: Keep Moving Forward Maybe a little slower. Maybe a little more carefully. Maybe with more honesty this time. But keep going. Because recovery isn't about never falling - it's about learning to get back up. Questions to Reflect On: About Your Falls: Where have you fallen recently in your recovery? What is that fall trying to teach you? Are you making the fall mean something about your worth? Have you gotten honest about where you really are? About Growth: What fall might you need to RISK in order to grow? What must you go through in order to evolve? Are you staying stuck because you're too afraid to risk falling? What lesson can't you learn any other way except through falling? Specific Scenarios: Maybe you've restricted when you said you wouldn't - what is that teaching you about your fear? Maybe you've isolated when you said you'd reach out - what is that teaching you about shame? Maybe you've lied to your treatment team - what is that teaching you about control? The Risk Question: Do you need to risk eating a fear food and falling into discomfort? Do you need to risk being honest and falling into vulnerability? Do you need to risk resting and falling into fear of losing control? Who This Episode Is For: This episode is essential listening if you: Have fallen or relapsed in your ED recovery recently Are lying to your treatment team about what you're really doing Feel ashamed about "falling again" in your recovery Beat yourself up for not being "further along" Think you're a failure because you keep slipping back Are too afraid to risk falling, so you stay stuck Feel defeated because your results don't match your stated actions Need permission to be imperfect in recovery Want to understand why falls are necessary, not shameful Are ready to get honest and finally change Have kids and relate to the parenting/learning moments Are a mom who sees your own journey in your child's lessons Important Truths About Falls in Recovery: Falls Are Not Failures: They're required education. Each fall teaches you something you couldn't learn any other way. The Length of Your Struggle Doesn't Matter: Whether this is your first fall or your hundredth, you can still get back up and keep going. Results Not Matching Actions Is a Sign: It means you're not being fully honest - with yourself or others. That realization IS the breakthrough. You Can't Skip the Lesson: Just like Blake couldn't skip learning to slow down without falling, you can't bypass the lessons recovery requires. Honesty Is the Turning Point: Once you get real about where you are, you can finally do something about it. Blake's Lesson Applied to Your Recovery: Blake was skipping too fast → You might be rushing recovery, trying to do it perfectly Lindsey kept warning him to be careful → Your body, treatment team, loved ones have been giving you signals He fell hard and got hurt → You've had a setback, relapse, or painful realization He reached out for help → You don't have to get up alone - reach out Lindsey stooped to his level → The right support meets you where you are, doesn't shame you She dusted him off → You can clean yourself up and start fresh He learned the lesson → "I shouldn't skip so fast" = awareness leads to change He got back up and kept going to school → You get back up and keep moving toward recovery The Figure Skating Lesson: Just like Lindsey fell countless times before landing her first double loop jump - and it became her favorite jump BECAUSE of all the falls - your recovery falls are teaching you: What angle is wrong (what approach isn't working) What timing is off (maybe you're not ready for this step yet) What fear you're holding onto (what's really keeping you stuck) What adjustment you need to make (how to do it differently next time) And eventually, when you land it, recovery will become your favorite part of your story. Not in spite of the falls, but because of them. Permission Slip: You have permission to: Fall and not be a failure Be right where you are, even if it's on the ground Get honest about lying or hiding Reach out for help getting back up Learn slowly, one fall at a time Be imperfect in your recovery journey Risk falling in order to grow Stop beating yourself up Start fresh today, right now Ready to Get Back Up?

Are you getting the most out of your fund's performance? Over the past 10 years, the average dollar invested in US mutual funds and exchange-traded funds earned 1.2% less per year than what those funds returned during the same period. That's the top-line finding in this year's Mind the Gap study, which aims to address the question of where investors succeeded in capturing most of their funds' returns, and where they fell short. Jeff Ptak, a managing director for Morningstar Research Services, breaks down the takeaways from the report and what investors can do if they want to avoid leaving money on the table.Mind the Gap US 2025On this episode:How does the report measure the difference between investor returns and total returns?How does the latest research compare with previous years? Is the “gap” going away?This difference in investor returns and total returns doesn't just come from people failing to time the market. What else might cause the gap?Where have investors been able to capture most of their funds' total returns, and where have they fallen short? Are there certain categories that stand out?Exchange-traded funds continue to gain popularity and market share. Did the investment type, mutual fund or ETF, make a difference in investor outcomes?Morningstar research has found that active funds have largely struggled to beat their benchmarks, but certain categories are better suited for active management than others. Is there a difference in the investor return gap in active versus passive funds?The study found that the more investors traded, the less they made. Why is that?Morningstar has found that fees tend to be a predictor of performance. Does that finding hold when looking at investor returns?The report also looked at the effects of return volatility. How did that translate to investor outcomes?You've written that where a fund is utilized can be just as important as the type of fund and how it's used.

In this episode, we have a special guest Professor Achim Kemmerling and we talk about what it means to protect knowledge when mobility is not an option.Professor Achim Kemmerling leads Research-at-Risk, an initiative at the Brandt School that reimagines how universities in safer contexts can support scholars working under authoritarian regimes or in resource-poor environments. From Myanmar to Afghanistan, his work traces the fragile infrastructures that sustain teaching and research under threat and often outside official recognition or accreditation.We discuss why most existing programs remain trapped in the language of excellence, why mobility has become a default but insufficient response, and what solidarity looks like when it is built from below.

Babies exposed to dog allergens early in life have about a 48% lower risk of developing asthma by age 5, and show stronger lung function compared to children raised in pet-free homes Exposure to dogs helps 'train' your child's immune system, teaching it to tolerate harmless allergens instead of overreacting to them — a key factor in preventing asthma and allergies later in life The protective effects are even greater in children genetically predisposed to poor lung health, showing that environmental exposure to dogs can offset inherited asthma risks Children who grow up with female dogs or with multiple dogs in the home have a lower risk of asthma, likely due to reduced exposure to certain allergens and a richer variety of beneficial microbes Beyond pets, improving indoor air quality, supporting gut and nasal microbiome health, and reducing toxins like seed oils and EMF exposure help strengthen your child's immune system and respiratory resilience

⬥GUEST⬥Andrew Morgan, Chief Information Security Officer | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewmorgancism/⬥HOST⬥Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/imsmartin/ | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com⬥EPISODE NOTES⬥The cybersecurity community has long recognized an uncomfortable truth: the gap between well-resourced enterprises and underfunded organizations keeps widening. This divide isn't just about money; it's about survivability. When a small business, school, or healthcare provider is hit with a major breach, the likelihood of permanent closure is exponentially higher than for a large enterprise.As host of the Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast, I've seen this imbalance repeatedly — and the conversation with Andrew Morgan underscores why it persists and what can be done about it.The Problem: Structural ImbalanceLarge enterprises operate with defined budgets, mature governance, and integrated security operations centers. They can afford redundancy, talent, and tooling. Meanwhile, small and mid-sized organizations are often left with fragmented controls, minimal staff, and reliance on external vendors or managed providers.The result is a “have and have not” world. The “haves” can detect, contain, and recover. The “have nots” often cannot. When they are compromised, the impact isn't just reputational — it can mean financial collapse or service disruption that directly affects communities.The Hidden Costs of ComplexityEven when smaller organizations invest in technology, they often fall into the trap of overtooling without strategy. Multiple, overlapping systems create noise, false confidence, and operational fatigue. Morgan describes this as a symptom of viewing cybersecurity as a subset of IT rather than as a business enabler.Simplification is key. A rationalized platform approach — even if not best-of-breed — can deliver better visibility and sustainability than a patchwork of disconnected tools. The goal should not be perfection; it should be proportionate protection aligned with business risk.The Solution: Culture, Collaboration, and ContinuityCyber resilience starts with people and culture. As Morgan puts it, programs must be driven by culture, informed by risk, and delivered through people, process, and technology. Security can't succeed in isolation from the organization's purpose or its people.The Australian CISO Tribe provides a real-world model for collaboration. Its members share threat intelligence, peer validation, and practical experiences — a living example of collective defense in action. Whether formalized or ad-hoc, these networks give security leaders context, community, and shared strength.Getting Back to BasicsPractical resilience isn't glamorous. It's about getting the basics right — consistent patching, logging, phishing-resistant authentication, verified backups, and tested recovery plans. It's about ensuring that, if everything fails, you can still get back up.When security becomes a business-as-usual practice rather than a project, organizations begin to move from reactive defense to proactive resilience.The TakeawayBridging the cybersecurity divide doesn't require endless budgets. It requires prioritization, simplification, and partnership. The “have nots” may never mirror enterprise scale, but they can adopt enterprise discipline — and that can make all the difference between temporary disruption and permanent failure.⬥RESOURCES⬥Inspiring Post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/andrewmorgancism_last-night-i-was-fortunate-enough-to-spend-activity-7383972144507994112-V3Zr/⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast: 

"Risk" and "uncertainty" are similar concepts. But your financial plan has to be prepared to cope with both. I think that mix is what's making some folks a little uneasy right now. In addition to the typical risks that all investors accept, we're also dealing with uncertainty around the government shutdown and what the effects on the economy will be until our leaders get back to the negotiating table. And, despite strong market returns this year, some observers are uncertain about the outsized impact that big tech companies might be having on portfolios. On today's show, we try to clear away some of the fog around the shutdown and the latest market data so that folks can start clarifying their plans for 2026.

In this episode of Tank Talks, host Matt Cohen sits down with Roberto Bellini, Co-Founder of BSQUARED Capital and former CEO of Bellus Health, for a powerful conversation about family, legacy, and resilience in the world of biotech.Originally recorded just two weeks before the passing of his father, Dr. Francesco Bellini, one of the founding giants of Canadian biotech, this re-recorded episode serves as a moving tribute to the man known as “Mr. Biotech Canada.” Roberto opens up about what it was like growing up under the guidance of such a visionary figure and how that experience shaped his own path as an entrepreneur and leader.He reflects on the highs and lows of leading Bellus Health, from moments of near collapse to its remarkable $2 billion acquisition by GSK, sharing lessons on risk-taking, perseverance, and the importance of staying grounded through uncertainty. Roberto also offers his perspective on the future of Canadian biotech, highlighting the need for stronger late-stage funding and how BSquared Capital is helping to cultivate the next generation of innovators.This episode isn't just about business success; it's about honoring a legacy, learning through adversity, and discovering what it truly means to build something that endures.The Legacy of Dr. Francesco Bellini (00:02:52)* Francesco Bellini's incredible immigrant story: from arriving in Canada with nothing to a $6B biotech exit.* Business was the family's dinner table conversation, and attending AGMs as a child.* The founding of Biochem Pharma and the discovery of the groundbreaking HIV treatment.* “He was a visionary... he saw things before other people saw them.”Growing Up in Biotech (00:06:30)* Roberto's early memories of board meetings and dinner-table business lessons* How being “in the room” shaped his entrepreneurial mindset* Watching a $6B biotech deal become part of family historyThe Rise, Fall, and Rebirth of Bellus Health (00:08:27)* Roberto's journey from family office analyst to a 30-year-old, first-time CEO of a public company.* The devastating failure of the phase three trial for a rare kidney disease.* Inside a Biotech Failure: The intense, weekend-long “war room” process of unblinding clinical trial data and preparing for a public announcement.The Second Act: Finding the Cough Drug (00:13:47)* Discovering a promising molecule through the NeoMed Institute* Betting the company's future on a last-chance asset* Raising $20M when no one believed and turning it into a $2B successNegotiating the GSK Deal (00:24:45)* The strategic shift from “build-to-sell” to “build-to-scale”, positioning the company for a premium acquisition.* The M&A Playbook: Why you should never lead with a desire to sell; the importance of building for independence.* The high-stakes negotiation with GSK: going from an $11 offer to $14.75, almost losing the deal, and the “mellow tone” that saved it.* The entrepreneur's dilemma: “Every single entrepreneur I've met that sold their company, there's always a moment of not wanting to do it.”Building Canada's Biotech Future (00:30:11)* Why Canada has the innovation but lacks the enduring biotech giants.* The critical gap: The need for more late-stage capital and the role of Canadian pension funds.* The “Gilead of the North” vision: Creating a virtuous cycle of capital, entrepreneurs, and translational science.* Upcoming trends: The convergence of AI and drug discovery to de-risk development and lower costs.Beyond the Lab: Leadership, Risk, and Legacy (00:46:20)* Learning to embrace risk and find joy in reinvention* The best advice from Dr. B: “Spend your money, it'll make you want to earn more.”* Why true success isn't just building a company, but building peopleAbout Roberto BelliniFounder & Managing Partner, BSQUARED CapitalRoberto Bellini is a second-generation biotech entrepreneur and investor.

Sean McWilliams says investors should be "cautiously optimistic" about the market's strong performance this year, citing factors like A.I. adoption and earnings growth. However, he also warns of potential headwinds, including stretched valuations, market concentration, and the risk of overinvestment in A.I. McWilliams suggests investors should maintain a balanced approach, considering lower-risk, higher-quality stocks and potentially adding treasuries to their portfolios as a hedge against potential volatility.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Don and Tom tackle the timeless question: why do you invest? They challenge the “TINA” mindset (“There Is No Alternative”) and dissect new research claiming retirement savers should own no bonds at all. They argue that while stocks outperform over long stretches, bonds remain essential for emotional stability and survival during market crashes. Listeners join in with sharp questions about CD ladder withdrawal strategies, crypto-based dividend schemes, securities lending, and international ETF allocation. The show wraps with a skeptical look at Vanguard's growing tilt toward active management and new global funds from Avantis. 0:04 Why do you invest?

Life's not slowing down for you to catch up. You either adapt or get left behind.The chaos isn't going anywhere. And the version of you that keeps saying ‘once things settle, I'll start' is what I call delusional optimism. The belief that things will magically get better without you actually changing. I've been there. My clients have been there. And it's the single biggest killer of progress I see every day.In this episode, I break down why comfort is the enemy, how chaos is actually the training ground for your next level, and the simple four-step process we use in our Prime Fit Coaching program to shift from wishful thinking to deliberate execution.Tune in if you're done negotiating with your excuses. It's time to step up, take ownership, and get your edge back.Episode Timeline: 00:00 – Episode Preview01:52 – Podcast Intro02:04 – Why Optimism Can Work Against You03:30 – Client Story: Tim's “Too Busy” Excuse08:45 – When Life Forces a Wake-Up Call10:40 – The Hard Truth About Priorities12:05 – Why Desire Isn't Enough for Change13:40 – Comfort Is the Enemy of Progress16:45 – The Role of Discomfort and Risk in Growth18:10 – The Only Certainty: How You Show Up Daily20:55 – From Delusional Optimism to Deliberate Execution22:58 – Final Thoughts & Free Resources.Links & Resources:Connect with Ben on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/Learn more about Ben's coaching program: www.bodysystems.comSubscribe to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-smart-nutrition-made-simple-show-with-ben-brown/id1244912234 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4H8vUlwYvKcAXZOv84sFgT Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@bodysystemscoaching Book Free Nutrition Strategy Call - https://bodysystems.com/free-strategy-call/
