Most coaches think more insight leads to transformation.Kellan argues the opposite.In this brutally honest episode, Kellan exposes the dangerous new form of avoidance emerging in the age of AI: people becoming incredibly articulate about their wounds, patterns, trauma, and limitations… while remaining completely unchanged.AI can now explain your emotions, summarize your patterns, reflect your pain, and even make you feel deeply understood. But according to Kellan, explanation is not embodiment — and self-awareness without action is becoming the newest addiction in personal development.This episode is a wake-up call for coaches, leaders, creators, and growth-minded people who have mistaken language for transformation.If your life still looks the same after years of “doing the work,” this conversation will hit hard.Because the future of coaching will not belong to the people with the best frameworks.It will belong to the people who embody the truth they teach.Key Takeaways:Why AI is creating “articulate avoidance”The difference between insight and transformationWhy most coaches will struggle to survive the AI eraThe hidden addiction to self-awarenessWhy explanation can become emotional camouflageThe danger of “processing” without actionWhy embodiment matters more than frameworksThe real reason many coaches stay underpaidHow AI accelerates insight but cannot create changeWhy coaching still matters more than everThe difference between sounding healed and being transformedWhy courage matters more than clarityThe future of transformational coachingIdentity-level change vs behavioral struggleWhy “doing the work” for years may still leave you stuck

Bryce sits down with former Navy SEAL turned physician Dr. Kirk Parsley for a powerful conversation on sleep deprivation, nervous system overload, recovery, and the hidden cost of high performance culture.After serving as a SEAL operator, Kirk returned to the teams as a physician and discovered a growing problem inside Naval Special Warfare:Some of the toughest men on the planet couldn't sleep.This episode explores what chronic stress, hyper vigilance, deployments, cortisol overload, and sleep deprivation actually do to the brain and body. Bryce and Kirk dive deep into SEAL culture, hormone disruption, recovery, modern hustle culture, sleep optimization, and why so many entrepreneurs today are unknowingly living like overstressed operators.If you've been waking up exhausted, wired at night, dependent on caffeine, struggling to recover, or feeling disconnected from your body, this episode will hit home.Topics include:• Hell Week and sleep deprivation• SEAL culture and nervous system dysregulation• Cortisol, testosterone, and hormone health• Why sleep medications became common in operators• Sedation vs restorative sleep• Stress addiction and modern hustle culture• Sleep optimization protocols• Circadian rhythm, light exposure, and recovery• Why recovery is a performance tool, not a weaknessThis conversation is a reminder that performance without recovery eventually becomes survival.⸻Key Takeaways• Sleep deprivation impacts cognition, hormones, mood, and recovery• You cannot outwork poor sleep• High performers often struggle to down regulate their nervous systems• Deep sleep and REM sleep are essential for recovery and performance• Recovery is one of the most overlooked aspects of modern health⸻Quotes From The Episode“The mission ended, but their nervous systems never got the message.”“You can override biology for a while. Eventually biology wins.”“Most people are not underperforming because they lack motivation. They're under recovered.”“Sedation is not the same thing as sleep.”⸻Timestamps00:00 Intro03:14 Kirk's journey from SEAL operator to physician09:02 Hell Week and sleep deprivation17:48 Why Navy SEALs struggle with sleep26:33 Cortisol, testosterone, and hormone disruption35:40 Sleep medications and nervous system overload44:12 Sedation vs restorative sleep52:27 Modern hustle culture and burnout1:01:16 Simple sleep optimization protocols1:11:04 Recovery, longevity, and sustainable performance⸻Connect with Dr. Kirk ParsleyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kirkparsley/Website: https://docparsley.com/⸻Connect with ALLSMITHInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/allsmithco/Bryce: https://www.instagram.com/therealbrycesmith/Website: https://www.allsmith.coSubscribe to ALLSMITH on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts for weekly conversations exploring mindset, fitness, wellness, recovery, and the pursuit of a deeply aligned life.Thank you for Listening!

During this session Dr. Daniel Yung-Ho Sze dives deep into conversation with Dr. Amy Deipolyi about how she expanded the role of ketamine sedation in everyday IR practice, focusing on how ketamine fills the growing gap between traditional fentanyl and midazolam sedation and general anesthesia. The talk reviews why ketamine is uniquely suited to IR by offering reliable dissociative sedation with hemodynamic stability and preserved airway reflexes, while addressing the practical barriers of privileging, nursing scope of practice, and institutional policy. Results from a randomized trial are presented alongside real-world workflow, dosing, contraindications, and patient experience. The session concludes by outlining how ketamine can safely expand access, reduce anesthesia bottlenecks, and keep IR teams in control when it is administered within clear safety and governance frameworks.

In this episode, we chat with podcast regular and peds EM champion, Dr. Marianne Gausche-Hill, about her topics and leadership within the ACEP Pediatric Emergency Medicine Assembly as a part of Accelerate. We get the best nuggets of each talk and then wrap with a plug for the Pediatric Readiness Project.

In this episode, Rosie Moss speaks with Natalie Dodds.Natalie is a mum of two who lost her partner, Dave, following a workplace crane collapse. She speaks with clear eyed honesty about parenting through shock, bureaucracy and the long tail of grief, while still finding ways to keep Dave's humour and presence alive at the family dinner table.We begin with life before. How Natalie and Dave met, built a home and became parents. Alongside that joy came an earlier rupture, the stillbirth of their daughter, Emily Daisy, at just over 38 weeks. Natalie shares the visceral reality of delivering on a main ward while hearing other babies cry, and the complex coexistence of grief and love that followed. In time, she volunteered with SANDS and welcomed two more children, carrying both loss and hope.At the heart of this conversation is the day of the accident. The unexpected paramedic call. The 126 mile drive. The 7pm news report confirming a crane collapse in Crewe. The moment “alive” became the only word that mattered.What followed was five weeks of ICU limbo. Sedation, ventilation, internal bleeding and sepsis. Dark humour. Small kindnesses from staff. Impossible choices about protecting children from trauma. Then the call no one survives hearing. There is absolutely nothing we can do. The kindest thing is to switch the machines off and let him die.Natalie speaks about what comes after the headline moment. The secondary losses that keep arriving. Mortgage threats. Next of kin complications. Institutions insisting on speaking to the person who has died. An 8.5 year wait for an inquest. The exhaustion of fighting systems that do not bend.She shares how she chose not to take her children into ICU, how she refused false promises, and how she found the words to tell them their dad was not coming home, while still getting them up for school the next morning.Eight and a half years later, the inquest brought answers about training failures and a wrong method statement, followed by the additional blow of hearing “not guilty.” Natalie reflects on the strange mixture of validation and devastation that comes with official findings that change nothing.This is a conversation about compounded grief. About loving someone who has died without freezing them in sainthood. About keeping Dave the man present through stories, laughter and everyday references. About maintaining a close bond with his family. About integrating a new partner into a home where Dave is still spoken about with love.It is also about resilience that does not look shiny. About coping strategies that sound small but keep you upright. Work routines. Blood pressure bingo. Cherries to stay awake on the motorway.Above all, it is about a woman doing the unthinkable and still showing up for her children.A powerful, unfiltered episode about loss, responsibility, anger, love and the long road towards something that resembles stability.

The Culture of Sedation — And the Loss of Human ResponsivenessYou're not just tired. You're being trained to shut down.Modern life pushes your nervous system from stimulation straight into suppression — scroll, overload, collapse. Your brain learns the pattern. When shutdown repeats, responsiveness changes.Sedation feels like relief because arousal drops fast. But that isn't regulation — it's suppression. When REM timing is disrupted, emotional range flattens, motivation drifts, and your body doesn't respond the same way.Nothing is wrong with you. Your system adapted. The solution isn't more intensity. It's restoration. When rhythm stabilizes, responsiveness returns automatically.Learn how to restore your brain's timing at https://drtrishleigh.com/ — You deserve to feel fully online again.Send a textSupport the showHi.

In this episode of the Profitable Christian Business Podcast, Doug Greathouse interviews applied neuroscience expert Mike "Ox" Ochsner about brain optimization for Christian entrepreneurs. If you've struggled with ADHD, racing thoughts, sleep challenges, stress management, or maintaining peak performance without compromising your faith, this episode delivers practical, faith-compatible neurological strategies. You'll discover: • Why ADHD may be a superpower • How sleep impacts focus, decision-making, and stress • The neurological mistakes entrepreneurs make under pressure • How sedation differs from restorative sleep • Why self-care is biblical stewardship This conversation bridges neuroscience, performance optimization, and Christian leadership — equipping high-capacity believers to steward their brain the way it was designed to work. Reboot Your Brain in 10 Minutes or Less— Without Meds, Meditation, or Apps https://peakbrainreboot.com  Takeaways ADHD can be reframed as a superpower rather than a disorder. Sleep is crucial for brain function and overall performance. Mindset requires conscious effort, while neurology can facilitate it. Writing down racing thoughts can help clear the mind before sleep. Sedation is not the same as restorative sleep; true sleep has active benefits. Praying can help calm the mind and enhance focus on God. Understanding brain optimization is essential for fulfilling one's purpose. Self-care is not selfish; it's necessary for effective stewardship. Each brain is unique, and solutions should be tailored to individual needs. Taking care of the brain can lead to improved performance and reduced overwhelm.  Sound  bites "Your brain isn't broken!"

Happy Monday, Beautiful Soul ✨This week's Soul Shift episode has been stirring something deep in me — and it's a message the spiritual world needs to hear right now. If your spiritual practices are making you comfortable with injustice rather than equipped to fight it, that's not healing. That's sedation.Today, I dive into the intense energy of the current eclipse portal, what the Akashic Records guides say about how to navigate it, and why now more than ever, we can't afford to check out. I'm also sharing a practical toolkit of practices — from nervous system regulation and emotional processing to community building and meaning-making — to help you stay sane, stay present, and show up for what matters.The quote from today's episode is from Michell C. Clark:“I don't want wellness practices that teach me to be at peace with an inequitable world. I need practices that help me to stay sane while doing my part to fight against it. If it makes you compliant to injustice, it's not healing - it's sedation.”Because you were built for these times! And the world needs you in it.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton talk about what happens when first responders are physically exhausted but mentally unable to sleep (Amazon Affiliate). Not the occasional restless night, but the chronic state of being wired, alert, and unable to fully shut down even in safe, quiet environments. This is the kind of sleep disruption that develops from years of hypervigilance, rotating shifts, and repeated exposure to critical incidents. The body may be in bed, but the brain is still scanning, replaying calls, running scenarios, and staying prepared for threat long after the shift has ended.

In this final episode of the Progesterone Promise series, Dr. Brendan McCarthy, Chief Medical Officer of Protea Medical Center, breaks down one of the most misunderstood hormones in women's health: progesterone. Progesterone is not “good” or “bad.” It's contextual. In today's world of quick sound bites and social media medicine, hormones are often reduced to oversimplified claims like “progesterone fixes anxiety” or “progesterone causes breast cancer.” The truth? It depends on your body, your stress levels, your liver health, your inflammation, your delivery method, and whether you're using bioidentical progesterone or synthetic progestins.   Citations: 1. Oral Progesterone → First-Pass Metabolism & Allopregnanolone Claim: Oral micronized progesterone undergoes significant hepatic first-pass metabolism, increasing neuroactive metabolites (especially allopregnanolone), which positively modulate GABA-A receptors and produce sedative/anxiolytic effects.

FOLLOW RICHARD Website: https://www.strangeplanet.ca YouTube: @strangeplanetradio Instagram: @richardsyrettstrangeplanet TikTok: @therealstrangeplanet EP. #1313 Murdered by Protocol: COVID and the NHS Death Machine For years, we were told the greatest threat to humanity was a virus. But what if the real danger wasn't the pathogen—it was the protocol? Tonight on Strange Planet, Richard Syrett ventures into one of the darkest, least examined chapters of the COVID era. Drawing on firsthand testimony, medical records, and hard data, this episode investigates allegations that thousands of vulnerable patients in the UK's National Health Service may not have died from COVID, but because of policy-driven medical decisions. Sedation. Isolation. Denial of treatment—carried out under emergency authority and bureaucratic language. GUESTS: Jacqui Deevoy is an investigative journalist and filmmaker who spent decades writing for Britain's mainstream press before becoming persona non grata for asking forbidden questions. During the COVID era, she uncovered alarming patterns inside UK hospitals and care homes—blanket DNR orders, family exclusion, and the widespread use of end-of-life drugs on non-terminal patients. After the sudden death of her own father, Deevoy compiled testimonies from 42 families into Murdered by the State, a chilling civilian record of alleged involuntary euthanasia carried out under emergency powers. Richard Cox is an author, researcher, and host of The Deep State Consciousness Podcast. As co-editor of Murdered by the State, Cox provides the book's analytical backbone, examining excess mortality data, NHS protocols, drug procurement records, and historical precedents like the Liverpool Care Pathway. His work frames the COVID death surge not as medical chaos, but as systemic compliance—raising disturbing questions about how policy, not pathology, may have driven outcomes, and why those powers never fully disappeared.

That's been my passion from the beginning.”09:49–10:31 – “Along the way I grabbed my MBA as well… taking night school for three years every Monday night for four hours… Now, having the MBA has allowed me to kind of see the errors that I made early on in my own practice.”14:55–15:26 – “Our students are the consumer of the programs… If you look at the dynamics and the history of the specialty and what the specialty wanted to do 30 years ago, it may not be what the product of the specialty wants to do now.”18:56–19:44 – “You have to market. You've got to market to the consumer what the value is. And if that perceived value makes sense to the person, then you've got a win-win.”29:21–30:40 – “You think back to your own personal experience with the specialty… There is that one experience that really hits you in the heart, and you hold onto that experience and that's why you chose this field… You have to derive the value of the specialty for you, and it's going to be different for every individual.”38:17–39:06 – “I love this specialty. You want it to flourish. I want it to be there many years beyond my own existence, and that we're at the cutting edge… We want to expand without losing anything.”55:14–55:41 – “I think the data is going to be our defense… How many fewer patients would actually receive care if they didn't have access to our ability to give them anesthesia in dentistry? How can you argue with numbers?”Questions:05:23 - “Why this step back? To private practice at this point and step away from the director role?”13:23 – “Don't think all those years and rotations are necessary—how many rectal exams do you really need to do as an oral surgery resident, you know what I mean?”17:38 - “I get this question all the time: why the 6-year versus the 4-year OMS program? What did the 6-year track benefit for you, and what do you recommend for others to pursue with the MD?”21:11 – “If periodontists are filling the gap at the dental schools—doing implants, sedations, managing complications—what does that mean for oral surgery's foothold and for who gets called when something goes wrong?”32:32 – “If we don't make full-arch ‘all-on-X' a real requirement in OMFS training, is one of the other professions going to step in and own that space instead of us?”41:13 – “What drove you, during residency at Case Western, to go into the cosmetics direction? Did any other people from your program graduate and take that same path?”43:59 – “Do you have any residents rotate through your practice right now, or is it very separate from the residency?”

In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Elizabeth H. Mack, MD, MS, FCCM, speaks with Rebecca Mitting, MD, MRCPCH, consultant pediatric intensivist and clinical lead for the PICU at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust in London. They discuss Dr. Mitting's article, “Sedation and Ventilator Weaning Bundle and Time to Extubation in Infants With Bronchiolitis: Secondary Analysis of the Sedation AND Weaning in Children (SANDWICH) Trial,” published in the April 2025 issue of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine. The SANDWICH trial, conducted in the United Kingdom, evaluated a nurse-led intervention of sedation scoring, goal-based sedation weaning, and protocolized extubation readiness testing. While the original trial demonstrated only a modest reduction in ventilation duration, Dr. Mitting's subgroup analysis of infants with bronchiolitis found a reduction of median time to successful extubation by approximately 16 to 17 hours. Dr. Mitting highlights the importance of these findings during the winter season when bronchiolitis drives up PICU occupancy and strain. The critical trade-off between minimizing ventilator days and avoiding extubation failure is discussed, as well as implementation challenges after the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of protocolized care under resource strain, and future directions for predictive models and personalized strategies to optimize extubation timing. Listeners will gain practical insights into evidence-based approaches for improving outcomes in infants with bronchiolitis and the broader implications for PICU workflow and patient safety. Resources referenced in this episode: Sedation and Ventilator Weaning Bundle and Time to Extubation in Infants With Bronchiolitis: Secondary Analysis of the Sedation AND Weaning in Children (SANDWICH) Trial (Mitting RB, et al. Pediatr Crit Care Med. 2025;26:e423-e431). Effect of a Sedation and Ventilator Liberation Protocol vs Usual Care on Duration of Invasive Mechanical Ventilation in Pediatric Intensive Care Units: A Randomized Clinical Trial (Blackwood B, et al. JAMA. 2021;326:401-410).

In this episode I sit down with renowned holistic facialist and dermal therapist April Brodie, fresh from her deep plane facelift in Seoul, to talk about what really sits behind the global obsession with K Beauty. We compare our recent trips to South Korea, from elite multi level clinics with corridors full of devices, to the chaos and delight of Olive Young and the clinical world of Korea Derma and regenerative medicine. April shares the story behind her signature Korean inspired facial, why technique can rival technology, and what she learnt from her own surgical journey. We talk Rejuran and salmon DNA biostimulation, the difference between PDRN in skincare and injectable DOT technology, why “glass skin” is a fantasy, and the categories that Koreans are quietly leading in, from scalp care to intimate care, sun care and beauty tools. There is also a healthy dose of reality about consent, safety, cultural expectations and what Australian women need to consider before chasing Korean level transformation. This is a candid, nuanced and very practical conversation about K Beauty, ageing, and how to edit all that innovation into a routine and treatment path that actually serves your skin.

The story behind her Korean influenced facial that uses bone therapy principles, Eastern European methods and Korean cleansing rituals. What we both observed inside ultra elite Korean clinics, from the sheer number of devices to the culture of sedation and intensive treatment stacking. The difference between Rejuran’s salmon DNA DOT technology and PDRN in topical skincare, and why that distinction matters. How to shop K Beauty in Olive Young without destroying your barrier or being distracted by trends. The categories where Korea is genuinely ahead, including sunscreens, scalp care, breath care, intimate care and tools.

Dr. Stefanie Meek is a pediatric dentist and partner at a large group practice in Little Rock, Arkansas. She is currently on maternity leave with a new baby, so we took the opportunity to have a discussion about all things pediatric dentistry. We talk about how much time to take off after having a baby, what her oral sedation cocktail consists of, and how her partnership buy-in was structured prior to COVID hitting. This is a great episode for anybody wanting to hear a partnership story and the benefits of working in a large group-practice setting.

Sedation emergencies may be rare, but when they happen, the consequences can be catastrophic. In this episode, anesthesiologist Dr. Richard Marn shares a practical framework to help oral surgeons prepare for high-stress, low-frequency events that can jeopardize patient safety and derail a practice. Drawing on his work with multiple oral surgeons and his extensive simulation training experience, Dr. Marn walks through four key pillars of readiness: Infrastructure, Competency, Culture, and Habit. He offers real-world strategies for building team alignment, from five-minute huddles and tabletop drills to equipment checks and fostering psychological safety. Along the way, he underscores how leadership and communication can transform a group of individuals into a high-performing team. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to embed a culture of calm, confident emergency response.Key Points From This Episode:Dr. Richard Marn's journey from surgery intern to pediatric anesthesiologist.The importance of stress testing your staff for an emergency event.Four pillars of emergency readiness: Infrastructure, Competency, Culture, and Habit.The definition of Halo events (High Acuity Low Occurrence) and their potentially devastating impact.Why preparation is critical to protect your practice during Halo events.How Dr. Marn conducts five-minute emergency drills to build team alignment.Sedation as a high-risk activity and how to prepare for it.Why soft skills and teamwork are as important as CPR or airway management.Simulation training: how they reveal common gaps in emergency preparedness.Little details that matter, like knowing how to turn on an oxygen tank.The importance of regular huddles: to build habits and uncover weak spots before an emergency hits.How to make sure your emergency equipment is in working order: assign liaisons to keep emergency kits, meds, and devices ready for use.What you can do to help your team practice emergency skills during real-life, low-stakes cases.How culture and psychological safety can affect a team's emergency response.Why culture shifts start with leadership and clear communication of expectations.How to access a free online assessment to evaluate team readiness.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Richard Marn — https://www.drrichardmarn.com/ Dr. Richard Marn on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmarn/ Online Sedation Risk Assessment — https://emergency.scoreapp.comCenter for Medical Simulation — https://harvardmedsim.org/ Online Sedation Risk Assessment — https://emergency.scoreapp.com Blue Pacific Medical Simulation — https://bpmedsim.com/ New York Medical Anesthesia — https://nymedicalanesthesia.com/Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

On this episode of Stinchfield, we expose a horrifying truth that’s been swept under the rug for far too long. Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Health and Human Services team has dropped a bombshell report uncovering major flaws—and potential criminality—within America’s organ donation system. Whistleblowers and researchers allege that in some cases, organs may be harvested before the donor is fully dead. That’s right—alive. It’s a gruesome betrayal of medical ethics and human rights, and it raises the question: who’s really benefiting from this multi-billion dollar industry? Plus, Tulsi Gabbard continues to lead the charge for truth and justice, laying out a damning case against the architects of the Russian Collusion hoax. The Dept. of Justice has announced a strike force has been created to explore the next legal steps to be taken against the culprits. And in a strange new twist, Gabbard confirmed that Hillary Clinton was medicated with tranquilizers during most of her political career, raising new concerns about her fitness, her judgment, and just how much of her public image was a pharmaceutical illusion. The truth is coming out. The elites are scrambling.

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin wish you all a joyous and/or contemplative Pioneer Day this year, along with the other 364. (Coincidentally, Jeffery Epstein's motto was “Bring ‘em young!”) Many questions remain unanswered following Epstein's untimely demise, but one thing is certain: Donald FN Trump's name is all over the Epstein files, and he knows it. Gops sneak out the back door and hope no one notices. Democrats follow them out and hope everyone notices. Thus, we are only about a week away from Ghislaine Maxwell's mysterious death in, or miraculous release from, prison. Sedation, stat! Donald's meds need to be upped. Tulsi Gabbard makes the US take one for Team Trump. Why supply evidence when the boss says you have proof? Is Trump's treason accusation a confession? Ya figure? Trump pulls a reverse-Jesus and sins so that his followers may live to sin. Gop Mike Lawler will hide in the House, barking, rather than challenge Governor Kathy Hochul. Donald K. Trump is… unpopular, especially among independents, but generally with everyone.

Loxapine is a first-generation (typical) antipsychotic with dopamine D2 receptor antagonism as its primary mechanism, though it also has affinity for serotonin 5-HT2A receptors, making its pharmacology somewhat atypical. Loxapine is available in multiple formulations, including oral capsules and an inhalation powder, the latter approved specifically for acute agitation in patients with schizophrenia or bipolar I disorder. Sedation and extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), including dystonia, akathisia, and parkinsonism, are common adverse effects due to its potent dopamine blockade in the nigrostriatal pathway. Orthostatic hypotension can occur with loxapine due to its alpha-1 adrenergic blockade, requiring monitoring in elderly patients or those on antihypertensives.

In this episode of Equine Innovators, host Stephanie Church talks with Dr. Lori Bidwell—board-certified veterinary anesthesiologist and co-founder of East West Equine Sports Medicine—about how veterinarians use sedation to keep horses and handlers safe during procedures. Bidwell explains the difference between sedation and general anesthesia, offers examples of standing surgeries that once required full anesthesia, and shares how Dormosedan Gel has changed how owners manage stressful situations such as clipping or fireworks. She also offers practical tips on safety, storage, and monitoring, and describes recent innovations and where sedation practices are headed in the years to come.GUESTS AND LINKS – EPISODE 21:Host: Stephanie L.
