I have something SO amazing for you. Our mineral-heavy water started impacting my skin the moment we moved, and I had never experienced eczema or skin issues in my life. Hard water can strip natural oils, disrupt the microbiome, and weaken the skin barrier — leaving you inflamed, reactive, and stuck in flare-ups. That's exactly what happened to my neck, and within almost two weeks of using Herbal Face Food, my eczema is almost gone. This stuff is legit — and I only share my favorite things that actually work. Their formulas are made with ultra-potent, organic, whole-plant botanicals rich in antioxidants, polyphenols, and phytonutrients that calm inflammation, rebuild the skin barrier, and fight visible signs of aging instead of masking symptoms. The Cure is their most targeted antioxidant treatment designed to visibly improve stubborn concerns like eczema, melasma, rosacea, scarring, sun damage, and deeper signs of aging. The Cream is a deeply hydrating, ultra-potent botanical moisturizer that firms, smooths, strengthens the skin barrier, and helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The Soap gently cleanses without stripping, using powerful plant concentrates to protect, nourish, and support healthy, youthful-looking skin on both the face and body. If your skin has been struggling from hormones, environmental stress, hard water damage, or premature aging, I'm sharing exactly what I'm using and why it's working.

In this evidence-packed episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling dissect a December 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis from Frontiers in Nutrition examining how intermittent fasting improves metabolic syndrome outcomes compared to traditional calorie restriction. They reveal that participants with metabolic syndrome—defined as having three or more risk factors including elevated waist circumference, high triglycerides, low HDL, elevated blood pressure, and high fasting glucose—experienced significant improvements in fasting blood glucose, A1C, insulin resistance, LDL cholesterol, and inflammatory markers with high certainty of evidence when using various IF protocols. The hosts explain why smart, experienced people spend years tracking and counting calories yet feel stuck, emphasizing that intermittent fasting addresses the root drivers of metabolic dysfunction rather than just creating a caloric deficit through willpower and restriction. They demonstrate how modified alternate-day fasting showed 50-100% greater reductions in inflammatory markers over 16 weeks, and why time-restricted eating delivers faster blood sugar improvements, providing practical guidance on matching your fasting pattern to your metabolic profile while focusing on beneath-the-surface changes happening long before the scale or the world can see them. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Why do some students sit and do “nothing” when we give them plenty of time to work, and why does “just get to work” rarely change anything? In this episode of Aspire to Lead, Joshua Stamper talks with executive function coach Carrie Bonnett about task initiation as a teachable brain based skill rather than a character flaw. Drawing on her years as a middle and high school teacher and her current coaching practice with students, families, and schools, Carrie explains how to reframe “procrastination,” “laziness,” and “defiance” as executive function challenges that show up when tasks feel boring, overwhelming, or too big.​ Carrie shares practical strategies from her free Task Initiation Toolkit, including chunking work by task and by time, using timers as “dopamine tools,” and making the invisible visible with clear routines and visual cues so the environment does more of the prompting than the adult. She also offers concrete language shifts educators can use, such as moving from “You are lazy” to “Your brain struggles with getting started,” and shows how small changes in how we talk about brains, motivation, and “stuckness” can transform classroom culture, family dynamics, and student confidence. About Carrie Bonnett Carrie Bonnett is a veteran teacher, lifelong list-maker, and Executive Function coach based in Bend, Oregon. She works with students and families around the country using a practical, no-shame, brain-first approach that empowers students to thrive, helps parents and teachers better support them, and gives adults tools to stay on top of all that life requires. In addition to coaching, Carrie creates digital resources—including her signature course Get the Brain on Board and a series of No-Shame Guides for Parents—and provides brain-based workshops and trainings for parents, teachers, and other professionals. She is also an adjunct instructor at the University of Portland, where she supports early-career teachers.

In this episode, Dr. Kharrazian dives into one of the most challenging and important topics facing both patients and practitioners: chronic fatigue and pain syndromes.If you've ever wondered why fatigue and pain are such stubborn and complex complaints, or why so many patients feel stuck despite having normal lab results, this conversation is for you. Dr. Kharrazian explores the critical role of cellular energy production—specifically mitochondrial bioenergetics—in recovery from injury and in managing conditions like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. He breaks down how disruptions in energy pathways can cascade into mood issues, pain syndromes, and overall decreased resilience, and explains why simply treating symptoms isn't enough.This episode also underscores the importance of going beyond a “one-solution” mindset, urging practitioners to delve deeper into the mechanisms that affect their patients' energy levels.

What if everything you've been told about enlightenment is wrong? What if presence isn't something you achieve — it's something you already are? In this special episode, Harmony opens the doors to her Inner Circle community and invites you to sit in on the first session of a year-long study of one of the most transformative books in modern spiritual literature: The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. Chapter One centers on one of the most radical ideas in all of spiritual teaching: You are not your mind. The thoughts, the planning, the remembering, the judging — that's not you. You are the one who observes all of it. And the moment you truly understand that? Something begins to shift. This episode references and reads selections from The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by Eckhart Tolle (New World Library, 1999). All quoted material remains the property of the author and publisher and is used here for educational discussion purposes. In this episode, you'll explore: Why yoga philosophy and The Power of Now are pointing at the same truth How attachment to psychological time (past and future) creates suffering The difference between enlightenment as a superhuman goal and your most natural state What it means to 'watch the thinker' — and what opens up when you do Why the body is always a truthful reflection of the mind Emotions as energy: why bypassing them keeps you stuck The three root baskets of human pain: safety, belonging, and enoughness How the Anandamaya Kosha (the bliss body) maps to Tolle's 'radiant joy of being' Real-life stories from community members practicing presence with teenagers, island power outages, and sick kids Your homework: How to watch your thoughts this month This conversation weaves together the Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, Sankhya philosophy, and The Power of Now in a way that is grounded, practical, and deeply alive. Whether you're new to Eckhart Tolle or you've read the book a dozen times, this session will make the teachings land in a new way. INNER CIRCLE — CLOSING MARCH 25TH Harmony's Inner Circle is open now and closes on March 25th for the rest of the year.

What happens when a former assistant principal chooses to return to the middle school classroom and discovers a deeper, wider form of leadership than the front office ever offered? In this episode of Aspire to Lead, Joshua Stamper talks with David James, seventh grade social studies teacher, lead mentor, and conference director for the North Carolina Association for Middle Level Education, about what it really means to lead where your feet are.​ David shares how his journey from substitute teacher to AP and back to the classroom reshaped his view of growth mindset, professional learning, and influence, and why he now sees every student in his 1,200 student building as “his kid.” He breaks down the BT support structures at Harold E.

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers explores the seven root causes of inflammation, which are major contributors to chronic conditions such as cancer, heart disease, and autoimmunity. Understanding these underlying factors is essential to addressing inflammation at its source. Dr. Jockers highlights how issues like leaky gut and low stomach acid can trigger systemic inflammation, leading to far-reaching consequences for health.   You'll also learn about the importance of balancing blood sugar to prevent inflammation. Elevated blood sugar levels create advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which damage tissues and lead to oxidative stress. Dr. Jockers explains how blood sugar imbalances set the stage for inflammation and how you can stabilize it to promote healing.   Additionally, the episode dives into the impacts of physical and emotional trauma, toxic load, and circadian rhythm dysfunction on the body's inflammation levels. Dr. Jockers offers practical insights on how to reduce these stressors and better support your body's healing processes, enabling you to restore balance and prevent further health complications.

Are you treating your Hashimoto's symptoms without ever asking what caused them in the first place? Most women with Hashimoto's spend years chasing symptoms and never get to the real problem. In this episode, we are going upstream. Using the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill as a real-world example, you will see exactly why addressing downstream symptoms without identifying upstream root causes keeps you stuck. Your symptoms are not the problem. They are the result of the problem. In this episode you will learn: Why upstream and root cause mean the same thing and why that matters for your health How your root causes are never just one thing and what to look at instead What your very first step should be after a Hashimoto's diagnosis If you are ready to stop guessing and start identifying your Hashimoto's root causes, this episode is your starting point.

What if your diagnosis isn't the whole story?Across illnesses that look completely different on the surface, researchers continue to find many of the same upstream biological pressures shaping how disease behaves. When you understand those shared drivers, you begin to see places where your body may still have room to respond.In this episode of Renegade Remission, we step beneath the label of a diagnosis and look at the terrain it developed within.You'll hear a published case report of a 79-year-old man with heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction of 35% who declined major surgery and instead enrolled in a monitored whole-food, plant-forward dietary program and experienced significant improvement. We discuss plausible mechanisms including reduced inflammatory signaling, metabolic improvement, and gut-derived vascular stress reduction.From there, we explore the core biological drivers that researchers repeatedly identify across diagnoses: chronic inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, gut microbiome imbalance, environmental burden, stress physiology, metabolic instability, and persistent immune activation.In this episode, you'll gain:A clearer understanding of the upstream biological pressures that commonly shape chronic and terminal illnessA framework for identifying which root drivers may be most relevant in your own situationInsight into how reducing cumulative load can improve resilience even when a diagnosis is seriousA grounded explanation of why supporting mitochondria, metabolic stability, gut integrity, and nervous system regulation often improves overall capacityA way to approach healing that prioritizes clarity over overwhelmWhen you shift your focus from chasing symptoms to reducing underlying burden, your decisions tend to become more coherent and sustainable.

Delanie Fischer chats with Leslie John, Harvard professor and author of Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing, about the nuanced risks and rewards of undersharing versus oversharing in our lives. They explore how the choices we make about what to reveal — and what to withhold — can profoundly shape our health, relationships, and even our careers. Leslie also shares practical, research-backed strategies for becoming a more effective and intentional sharer.

#311 If you've been drinking the water, eating the fibre, taking the  magnesium and prebiotics — and you're still constipated — this episode is for you. Chronic constipation is rarely just a lifestyle problem. In most cases, there is a deeper, physiological root cause that hasn't been properly investigated. In this solo episode, Lynda walks you through five of the most commonly missed drivers of chronic constipation, what the research says, and why getting the right investigation changes everything. You'll discover: - Why do methane-producing gut organisms (IMO) physically slow down your bowel movement — and why fibre and resistant starch can make it worse - Dyssynergic defecation — when your pelvic floor tightens instead of releasing - Secondary medical causes that are frequently overlooked, including thyroid dysfunction and medications - What advanced microbiome testing reveals that standard tests simply miss - How chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation, and trauma keep you stuck - Why chronic constipation has been linked to cognitive decline and can precede Parkinson's disease motor symptoms by 20 or more years If you've been at this for a long time without answers, this episode  was made for you.

In this episode we explore how agricultural systems shape human and planetary health.We are joined by Professor Amir Kassam, a globally recognised expert in conservation agriculture (CA), whose work has helped advance sustainable farming systems worldwide. Professor Kassam explains the scientific foundations of CA and how it differs from the increasingly popular concept of regenerative agriculture.Drawing on his contributions to global food systems discussions, including work aligned with the EAT-Lancet Commission, we examine how agriculture must operate within planetary boundaries to safeguard soil, water, biodiversity, climate stability, and ultimately public health.For healthcare professionals, this episode reframes prevention at a systems level, highlighting agriculture as an upstream determinant of health. If we are serious about sustainable diets and long-term wellbeing, we must also consider how food is grown.To find out more: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Amir-Kassamhttps://fable.co/author/prof-amir-kassamhttps://plantbasedhealthprofessionals.com/sustainable-farminghttps://www.thelancet.com/commissions-do/EAT-2025Rockström J, Kassam A, Friedrich T, et al.

In this episode, Alix & Kayla explore stories from people who have transitioned and later detransitioned, unpacking the deeply personal, emotional, and complex experiences behind those journeys. From informed consent and puberty to trauma, social influence, and the evolving language around gender identity, they discuss how identity formation can shift over time—and why holding space for nuance matters.Through anonymous community stories and open conversation, they reflect on how gender, sexuality, and self-perception intersect with mental health, relationships, and the pressure to “figure it out” too quickly.This is a compassionate, layered conversation about gender identity, detransition stories, queer community belonging, and the reality that self-discovery isn't always linear.00:00 – Intro + Life Updates in Nicaragua 02:00 – Hyperfixations & Mormon Memoirs 04:20 – Marriage “Would You Rather” Game 15:20 – Today's Topic: Transition & Detransition Stories 16:00 – News Story: Malpractice Case & Gender-Affirming Care 20:00 – What “Detransition” Means 22:00 – Informed Consent & Medical Decision-Making 26:30 – Why This Conversation Matters in Queer Spaces 30:00 – Anonymous Story: Transition, Fertility & Identity 32:00 – Puberty, Body Changes & Gender Confusion 38:30 – Trauma, Identity & Transition Motivations 44:00 – Social Influence, Language & Self-Understanding 48:00 – Internalized Misogyny & Gender Expectations 52:00 – Does Transition Resolve Dysphoria? 55:00 – Therapy, Root Causes & Identity Exploration 58:30 – Growing Up Tomboy & Gender Expression 01:02:00 – The Complexity of Identity & Final Thoughts

Community Food Box Project: Mutual Aid, Food Insecurity, and Food Apartheid Host Chris Whonsetler continues a conversation about community and commensality, connecting his lack of personal experience with food insecurity to the need to keep community needs front-of-mind. Guest Sierra Nuckols, an Indianapolis native, explains how her upbringing and interest in gardening led her to food justice work, including partnerships with urban growers and community gardens. She describes food apartheid as the historically rooted, racialized and class-based system behind “food deserts,” noting how food desert maps mirror redlining patterns. Sierra outlines the Community Food Box Project (under Cultivate Indy), emphasizing 24/7 access, easy-open high-protein donations, and biweekly volunteer meetups, plus plans for a live box-status map and upcoming March 7 fundraiser. They discuss donating regularly, attending local policy meetings, and simple habits like buying an extra item each grocery trip.

I am delighted to reconnect with Dr. Jason Fung today. He is a trained nephrologist and world-leading expert on intermittent fasting and metabolic health. He has authored multiple books, including the New York Times best-seller, The Obesity Code, The Diabetes Code, and, more recently, The Hunger Code.   In our conversation today, we unpack the obsessive focus on the calories-in, calories-out model, which is neither practical nor effective. We explore the root causes behind the narrow-minded thinking that calories alone drive obesity, differences between types of hunger and conditioned responses, how hormones affect other hormones, and lessons about GLP-1s. We examine the critical importance of fiber and protein, and offer clarity around carbohydrates. We also cover the impact of meal timing, sleep, and circadian biology, the fat thermostat and sympathetic tone, nutrition, stress, and mindful eating, and dive into the issue of ultra-processed foods. Join us for an insightful conversation that challenges conventional wisdom and offers a nuanced and sustainable approach to understanding hunger, metabolism, and long-term health. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: “Calories in, calories out” framework is technically correct, but practically useless How the homeostatic, hedonic, and conditioned hunger types differ Dr. Fung shares his take on GLP-1 medications How fiber stimulates natural GLP-1 production Processed and natural carbohydrates produce vastly different glucose and insulin responses. Avoid eating late-night meals!

Educators are exhausted, overextended, and still trying to show up fully for kids. So what does it actually look like to build a sustainable life and career in schools instead of just surviving the year?​ In this episode of Aspire to Lead, Joshua Stamper sits down with Kim Gameroz to celebrate the launch of her new book Becoming the BISON and explore how teachers can "be intentional so others notice" in ways that protect their wellness, elevate their impact, and spark real change on campus.​ Kim shares why she believes educators are like bison. They move bravely into the storm rather than away from it. She unpacks her core shifts: courage over comfort, clarity over compliance, and connection over control, especially in the face of student behavior, burnout, and broken systems.​ She also pulls back the curtain on her Celebrate Good Times community, the Vibe EDU podcast, and the high energy Vibe EDU live event in Anaheim, designed to surround teachers with a herd that refuses to let them do this work alone. About Kim Gameroz Kim Gameroz, M.Ed., is a change agent and founder of Teaching Inside Out, revolutionizing classrooms through a systematic approach to teaching social and emotional skills. With over 15 years of experience coaching, training, and mentoring educators, students, and families globally, Kim has spoken at numerous conferences, consults for school districts, serves on SEL panels, and contributes to various publications and podcasts. Through Teaching Inside Out, as well as her second company, SELebrate Good Times, she has created a supportive community for heart-centered educators nationwide where she is committed to making teachers feel seen, valued, and SELebrated at her events and teacher retreats. Kim's upcoming book, "Becoming The Bison," is set to be published in 2025. She currently resides in Dallas, Texas with her husband, Shaun, and son, Wyatt, and is looking forward to spreading her knowledge of SEL and best practices in teaching even further to schools, districts, and homes around the world.

Fertility may be more about the daily choices we make rather than factors like delayed maternal age, says fertility physician Dr. Natalie Crawford. Markers of metabolic health, such as chronic inflammation, affect women's egg quality. Crawford, who experienced four failed pregnancies before having her children, began studying the link between inflammation and infertility. Taking charge of your fertility, she says, means having early conversations about hormonal health and taking steps, like better sleep and nutrition, to improve your chances of getting pregnant. She speaks with Pamela Brown, anchor and correspondent for CNN, about her new book The Fertility Formula: Take Control of Your Reproductive Future.

Which island is your marriage on right now? In this episode, we share a simple but eye-opening framework we call The 3 Islands of Marriage: Dysfunction, Function, and Connection. Marriage naturally moves through different states depending on the season you're in. Stress, transitions, parenting, unresolved conflict, or even just routine can shift where you and your partner are emotionally. We break down: • What each island looks and feels like • The subtle signs you may be drifting • And the practical steps to move toward Connection Island Every couple will land on different islands at different times. The goal isn't to panic — it's to recognize where you are and take intentional steps forward. Because time alone doesn't move a marriage back to a healthy place. Awareness and action do. If you've been feeling disconnected, stuck in conflict, or just functioning but not truly close, this episode will help you figure out your next move.   Relationship Resources Mentioned  1) Moving from Dysfunction to Function island - watch the 5 Root Causes webclass or do the Rebuilding Us Challenge 2) Moving from Function to Connection island - start the Prioritize Us couples Challenge.  Each of these resources and more can be found at: https://meetthefreemans.com/links

In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Dr. Justin Marchegiani to explain why thyroid health is really a whole body conversation, not just a gland problem. You'll learn how thyroid hormone impacts energy, body temperature, mood, digestion, and stress resilience. They also unpack why so many thyroid cases have an autoimmune layer and what that means for your next steps.   You'll hear why Dr. Justin says thyroid issues often show up alongside gut and liver dysfunction, and why focusing only on medication can miss the real roadblocks. He breaks down how T4 becomes active T3 and how stress, inflammation, and nutrient gaps can slow that conversion down. You'll leave with a clearer way to think about what to support first so your metabolism can respond.   You'll learn the link between insulin resistance and sluggish thyroid output, plus how blood sugar data can help you personalize your nutrition instead of guessing. They share simple markers to pay attention to after meals and why consistency matters more than perfection. You'll also hear why stress can spike glucose fast and how a short walk can be one of the quickest ways to bring things back down.   In This Episode:  00:00 Sleep Deprivation, Cortisol & Blood Sugar Spikes 02:17 Meet Dr. Justin & Introducing 'The Thyroid Reboot' 02:56 Why the Thyroid Matters: Metabolism, Gut, Immunity & Autoimmunity 04:13 Hyperthyroid vs Hypothyroid: TSH, T4/T3 Basics & Graves vs Hashimoto's 08:25 Hypothyroid Symptom Checklist + Basal Temperature Clues 11:15 Thyroid Hormone Activation: TRH→TSH→T4→T3, Liver Conversion & Key Nutrients 16:39 Gut Microbiome, Estrogen Detox & Why Thyroid Is a Whole-Body Issue 19:18 Hair Growth Cycle Explained + Why Follicles Get "Stuck" 20:41 Root Causes of Hypothyroidism: Insulin Resistance, Stress, Diet Gaps 22:08 Toxins & Microplastics: How Endocrine Disruptors Impact Thyroid Hormones 22:43 Reading Thyroid Labs: Ideal TSH/T4/T3 Ranges & What They Mean 24:39 Treatment Strategy: Foundations First, Then Thyroid Support (If Needed) 26:53 DIY Thyroid Foundations: Diet, Blood Sugar Testing, Movement & Sleep 33:57 Wrap-Up: Book Plug, Where to Get Help, and Final Takeaways   If you want practical, natural strategies to balance your hormones, heal your gut, boost your energy, and slow aging, don't miss The Dr. Josh Axe Show.

Painful sex is far more common than most women realize and far more complex than we're ever taught.In this episode, Dr. Leah shares her deeply personal 18-year journey with painful sex, low libido, and feeling dismissed by the medical system, alongside a comprehensive breakdown of the real root causes of pain during sex, from trauma and pelvic floor dysfunction to hormonal changes and lesser-known conditions like provoked vestibulodynia (PVD).We talk honestly about why painful sex is not something you should “just push through,” why many conventional treatments miss the mark, and how healing often requires addressing multiple layers at once: physical, neurological, hormonal, and emotional.If sex has ever felt painful, burning, tense, or emotionally complicated, or if you've been told everything “looks normal” but something still feels wrong, this conversation is for you.Painful sex is not a personal failure, a relationship problem, or something you should tolerate. It's often a signal, and when you understand the signal, healing becomes possible.Content NoteThis episode includes discussion of sexual trauma, medical trauma, and chronic pain. Please take care while listening and pause if needed.What We Cover in This EpisodeWhy painful sex is common but not normalHow trauma (sexual, medical, or cultural) can create involuntary pelvic floor tensionThe difference between deep pain vs. pain at the vaginal opening (and why that matters)What vaginismus is and why dilators alone often aren't enoughHow pain and pleasure share the same neurological pathwaysThe role of vibration in interrupting pain signalsWhy hormonal birth control can contribute to painful sexWhat provoked vestibulodynia (PVD) is and why most women have never heard of itHow postpartum hormonal shifts can cause pain even when labs look “normal”Why testosterone matters for vulvar tissue healthThe connection between low libido and painHow hypertonic (overly tight) pelvic floors contribute to pain, birth challenges, and postpartum issuesWhy every woman should see a pelvic floor physical therapist at least onceHow scars, tailbone injuries, infections, and nerve pain syndromes play a roleWhy healing painful sex requires a root-cause, multi-layered approachA message of hope: healing is possible, even after years of pain00:00 Trailer + show intro02:00 Why painful sex is more common than we think (and why women feel so isolated)04:00 Dr. Leah's personal story: living with painful sex from the very beginning08:00 Being dismissed by doctors + why chronic pain is so confusing and isolating12:30 Why treating symptoms doesn't work16:00 Endometriosis and deep pain during sex25:30 Why pregnancy sometimes improves pain (and why it doesn't always last)32:45 Vaginismus explained40:45 Pain, pleasure, and the nervous system44:30 Trauma healing during pregnancy and how it changed postpartum pain47:45 Provoked Vestibulodynia (PVD)52:45 Birth control, testosterone, and why estrogen isn't always the issue56:45 What finally worked59:45 Other overlooked causes of painful sex1:04:30 Hypertonic pelvic floors1:08:30 Final reflections, hope, and next stepsResources Mentioned:Dr. Leah's When Sex Hurts Immersion Course WaitlistWhen Sex Hurts (book)Womanhood Wellness MembershipEpisode: Birth Preparation for Sexual Trauma Survivors

Many men over 40 take their health seriously but feel confused, frustrated, or quietly concerned about changes in their sex life.   In this episode, Ted speaks with human sexuality expert Dr. Nicole McNichols about how stress, sleep, anxiety, body image, and relationship dynamics shape sexual health. They explore why common explanations like testosterone or blood flow often miss the bigger picture, and how unrealistic expectations fueled by culture and pornography can undermine confidence and desire.   This conversation reframes sex as an essential part of overall health and longevity, offering a more grounded, evidence-based way to think about intimacy, performance, and connection. Listen now.    Today's Guest  Dr. Nicole McNichols  Dr. Nicole McNichols is an internationally recognized professor of human sexuality, author, and speaker at the University of Washington, where her course The Diversity of Human Sexuality is the most popular in the school's history.  She is the coauthor of Human Sexuality in a Diverse Society and the author of You Could Be Having Better Sex: The Definitive Guide to a Happier, Healthier, and Hotter Sex Life. She writes for Psychology Today, The Seattle Times, and The Conversation, and lives in the Seattle area with her family.  Connect to Dr. Nicole McNichols  LinkedIn: Nicole McNichols  Website: nicolethesexprofessor.com   Book: You Could Be Having Better Sex: The Definitive Guide to a Happier, Healthier, and Hotter Sex Life    You'll learn:   Why sexual health is a powerful but overlooked marker of overall wellbeing and longevity  How stress, poor sleep, anxiety, and body image issues quietly reduce desire and performance  Why pornography myths create unrealistic expectations that fuel insecurity and pressure  How emotional connection, self-growth, and planned intimacy support a healthier sex life    What Ted and Julie discuss:  (00:00) Introduction  (01:30) Meet Dr. Nicole McNichols  (02:30) The Connection Between Health and Sex  (05:30) Understanding the Pleasure Cycle  (12:47) The Impact of Pornography on Sexual Health  (24:31) Addressing Porn Use and Relationship Dynamics  (31:51) The Importance of Planning Intimacy  (36:07) Addressing the Root Causes of Sexual Issues  (37:47) The Role of Therapy in Sexual Health  (39:14) Final Thoughts and Upcoming Episodes  (39:37) The Importance of Self-Growth in Relationships  (59:27) Planning Intimacy and Pleasure  (63:19) Conclusion and Final Thoughts 

In this episode of Finding Freedom, host John Odermatt examines the rise of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, exploring how they work by overriding the body's natural hunger signaling through synthetic peptides inspired by Gila monster venom. While acknowledging these medications have legitimate applications for severe obesity and diabetes, John raises concerns about FDA-listed side effects including muscle loss, stomach paralysis, and thyroid tumor warnings, especially as Trump's new RX.gov platform makes these drugs more affordable and accessible. Drawing from his personal experience losing 50 pounds and maintaining the weight loss, John argues that synthetic GLP-1s don't address root metabolic dysfunction caused by poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, and chronic inflammation. He advocates for natural alternatives like berberine, chromium polynicotinate, and polydextrose fiber that support the body's own GLP-1 production rather than overriding it. John emphasizes the importance of building sustainable habits through diet, exercise, and supplementation that restore metabolic function instead of creating pharmaceutical dependency. The episode concludes with a call to prioritize long-term health over quick fixes, warning that rapid weight loss without muscle maintenance could lead to premature aging and sarcopenia.

If your period is missing… or your cycles are wildly unpredictable… this episode is going to change everything. Because your missing period isn't the root problem. It's the symptom. In today's episode, I'm breaking down the 3 unexpected root causes of period loss + irregular cycles: ✨ A damaged metabolism ✨ Depleted nutrients ✨ Nervous system dysfunction And how they all lead to the same outcome:

Your body does not fail all at once. Aging starts when cells quietly shift into survival mode and never come back out. In this episode, you go inside the thinking of a true medical outlier to understand how stress, travel, toxins, and metabolic overload reprogram cells, shut down energy, and accelerate aging, and how restoring mitochondrial function can reverse that trajectory from the inside out. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Theodore Achacoso and Boomer Anderson, leaders in Health Optimization Medicine and Practice. Dr. Achacoso is a physician-scientist and the founding pioneer of Health Optimization Medicine, known for his work on cellular networks, metabolomics, and mitochondrial function. Boomer Anderson is the CEO of Smarter Not Harder and Troscriptions, where he focuses on translating complex biology into practical tools for human performance and longevity. Together, they unpack how cells respond to perceived threats through the Cell Danger Response, why mitochondria control energy, inflammation, and repair, and why chasing disease labels misses the real drivers of aging. The discussion covers methylene blue as an electron recycler, why LDL cholesterol plays a role in detoxification and immune signaling, how fasting and ketosis shift metabolism between repair and growth, and why sleep optimization, circadian rhythm, and light exposure matter even more when you travel. They also explore neuroplasticity, consciousness, nootropics, supplements, and why health optimization works best when you restore balance instead of forcing outcomes. You'll Learn: • What the Cell Danger Response is and how it reshapes aging and performance • How mitochondria sense stress before symptoms appear • Why cellular energy controls resilience, sleep, and longevity • How methylene blue supports mitochondrial electron flow • Why fasting and ketosis shift metabolism between repair and growth • How travel, light, and circadian disruption affect aging • Why very low LDL can impair detoxification and immune signaling • Why real anti-aging starts at the cellular level, not with disease labels Thank you to our sponsors!
