This week's episode of PSA: The Mental Health Podcast picks back up with a heavy mix of faith, culture, and uncomfortable reflection as Izzy dives into the latest installment of Social Media & You Reloaded featuring AmRock from The HL Podcast. The episode opens with Izzy addressing creator fatigue and the reality that working in seasons is necessary for mental and emotional survival in a culture that worships constant output. From there, he transitions into how politics has turned into one of the most toxic conversational spaces for Black people, questioning whether cutting someone off over an election is truly normal or just the result of social engineering.AmRock helps pull apart how social media has turned politics into performance and outrage into identity, pushing Black men especially into silent corners where opinion equals cancellation and disagreement becomes betrayal. Together they explore how political alignment has become a mental health issue, how groupthink has replaced critical thinking, and how generations of Black folks approach voting differently due to trauma, distrust, and survival.The conversation expands into abortion debates, civil rights, Trump-era polarization, white liberalism, the weaponization of religion, and class divides inside Black communities. Izzy emphasizes that most people are more informed by memes than policies, that the media incentivizes emotional extremes, and that everyone claims to “do their research” without ever touching a primary source. They also discuss how political identity has become a substitute for personality, how conspiracy theories sometimes feel safer than institutions that Black people no longer trust, and how therapy, faith, and history are necessary for decoding why we argue instead of building. Instead of picking sides, Izzy challenges whether Black unity requires ideological agreement or whether maturity means learning to disagree without destroying relationships. This episode is controversial, introspective, and culturally honest—and it reminds listeners that most people don't actually hate each other; they just don't know how to talk to each other without losing themselves in the algorithm.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/p-s-a-the-mental-health-podcast--5520511/support.TrustBuilder Package

Many women ages 35–55 describe this stage of life as feeling like they are suddenly falling apart. Patience disappears, tolerance drops, exhaustion deepens, sleep becomes disrupted, emotions feel closer to the surface, and the body often hurts more than it used to. For sensitive, autistic, and neurodivergent women, this experience can feel especially intense and confusing.In this episode, Julie Bjelland, LMFT, explores what is really happening beneath the surface. She explains how perimenopause and menopause affect the brain, nervous system, sleep, pain, and stress tolerance, why estrogen plays such a critical role, and why hormone testing often fails to capture what women are actually experiencing. Julie also discusses the widespread lack of menopause education among doctors, why women are so often dismissed or prescribed antidepressants instead of receiving hormone-informed care, and what current research is saying about hormone therapy.This episode also explores why midlife can become a “perfect storm” for sensitive, autistic, and ADHD women, why masking often becomes unsustainable, and why so many women discover they are autistic during this stage of life. Julie shares why autism identification is often the missing piece that brings relief, compassion, and clarity, why standardized assessments frequently miss high-masking women, and how neurodiversity-affirming assessments can support deeper self-understanding.If you've been wondering why everything suddenly feels harder, this episode offers validation, education, and hope. You are not broken. Your nervous system is responding to real biological and neurological changes, and understanding what's happening can be the first step toward relief and more compassionate support.

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...   - Why some children are more sensitive to teasing, how temperament plays a role, and why those kids are often more likely to be targeted by peers. - How all three hosts, as therapists and parents of sensitive boys, handle teasing and social stress with their own children, including what has helped and what we had to learn the hard way. - What kids mean when they talk about "rage baiting," how this behavior shows up in friendships, and why it is especially dysregulating for sensitive children. - Whether a "toughen up" approach ever helps sensitive kids, and what Dr. Sarah learned when her husband's advice to their son worked better than her own. - How children can learn coping skills for teasing, including when to walk away, when it might be okay to engage, and how to tell the difference.   If your child takes teasing to heart and you worry about how to help without minimizing their feelings, this episode will help you support your sensitive child with more confidence, clarity, and connection.     REFERENCES AND RELATED RESOURCES:  

Ever notice that it's not the everyday conversations or simple disagreements that shape the quality of a relationship—it's those high-stakes moments, the tough talks that feel risky and uncomfortable, that truly define the connection. Far too often, we skirt around what really needs to be said, trading short-term relief for long-term regret. Whether it's at work or at home, these avoided discussions can lead to resentment, disconnection, and a sense of self-abandonment. In this episode, listeners will dive deep into understanding why we tend to avoid these "last 8%" conversations, what emotional forces are at play, and how learning emotional intelligence can transform conflict into an opportunity for growth. Through practical insights and relatable stories, the discussion explores how you can recognize your own patterns under pressure, build self-awareness, and learn strategies to approach difficult dialogues with clarity, empathy, and courage. If you're ready to break out of avoidance and start showing up authentically—for yourself and your relationships—this episode offers a roadmap to addressing the hard stuff and reclaiming connection. Bill Benjamin is a Partner at the Institute for Health & Human Potential. He has degrees in Mathematics and Computer Science and 30 years of business experience. Bill explains how you can build a high-performance Last 8% Culture by leveraging the science of emotional intelligence. His clients include NASA, Marriott, Intel, the Mayo Clinic, the U.S. Marines and Surgeons.   Episode Highlights 05:07 The importance and science behind emotional intelligence in relationships and business. 07:24 The origin of the "Last 8%" concept and its impact on difficult conversations. 10:03 Fight, flight, and the roles we play: Avoiders, mess-makers, and emotional triggers in relationships. 14:39 Navigating emotional intelligence at work versus at home. 18:16 The costs of avoidance. 21:06 Recognizing your role and contribution in conflict. 28:36 Understanding others' intentions in pressure situations. 29:15 Practical strategies for handling relational conflict. 35:12 Addressing shame and trauma in relationship pressure points. 36:15 Taking action: Sensitive communication and resources for emotional intelligence development.   Your Check List of Actions to Take Start with Self-Awareness: Regularly check in with your body and mind for early signs of emotional activation, like tense muscles or scattered thoughts. Pause Before Reacting: If you notice emotional triggers, pause and take several deep breaths to regain mental clarity and composure. Name Your Patterns: Reflect on whether you tend to avoid difficult conversations or "make a mess" by confronting too strongly. Get Curious About Others: In moments of tension, intentionally seek to understand the other person's perspective—what's driving their reaction or behavior? Build Empathy Bridges: Imagine stepping over to the "other side of the bridge," as suggested, to genuinely validate the other person's feelings before expressing your own. Return To The Conversation: If you need a break during a heated moment, communicate that you'll revisit the topic, rather than letting it drop indefinitely. Express Your Emotional Needs: Practice communicating your own needs and boundaries directly, knowing it's essential for building mutual respect and trust. Seek Support When Needed: If shame, trauma, or persistent avoidance is hindering healthy interactions, reach out to a therapist, mentor, or supportive resource for guidance and perspective.   Mentioned Performing Under Pressure: The Science of Doing Your Best When It Matters Most (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) The Secret to Building a High-Performing Team (Harvard Business Review article) 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free guide) Connect with Bill Benjamin Websites: ihhp.com Facebook: facebook.com/IHHPGlobal X: x.com/IHHP YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UC0UYI0Vuy99P8Hdj-r3hr4w Instagram: instagram.com/ihhpglobal LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bill-benjamin-12b671

For leaders who take responsibility for their inner world and want to meet 2026 with clarity, aligned focus, and embodied inner authority.This episode offers a nervous-system-aware perspective on 2026 energetic themes, leadership, capacity for success and aligned growth.

Have you put yourself aside for years? In this episode, I talk with Jen Berlingo, LPC, ATR about tuning back into your inner calling and… • Emerging in midlife and unmasking to be your full self again  • Looking inward to identify what needs to change • Navigating big life changes and taking one small step forward at a time • Turning your ear back inward to listen to your inner yearnings and reclaiming your true nature • Assessing whether your lifestyle supports your sensitive nervous system  • Learning to assert your preferences in a world that's not built for HSPs  • Stop abandoning yourself and people pleasing to make others comfortable  Jen (she/her) is a midlife coach, a Licensed Professional Counselor, a Nationally Registered Art Therapist, and a master-level Reiki practitioner. After two decades of midwifing hundreds of women through life's major transitions and experiencing her own passage through a fiery midlife portal where she more fully stepped into her queer identity, she was inspired to write Midlife Emergence to accompany other women in traversing their midlife journeys. Upon its publication, Midlife Emergence reached #1 in several Amazon categories, including midlife management, divorce, LGBTQ+ memoirs, LGBTQ+ parenting and families, adulthood and aging, and self-help.

The end of the trading year can still lead to big market moves, says Kevin Hincks. "Less eyeballs" on the stock market means Wall Street is more susceptible to headlines. On the Fed, Kevin notes Beth Hammack as a potentially hawkish voting member effective January 1, though a neutral to dovish FOMC overall is what he believes keeps the rate cutting cycle intact. He later notes crude oil's rally as more uncertain develops around Venezuelan oil tankers being seized. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

As the holidays approach, many families experience a swirl of excitement, chaos, and sometimes overwhelm. On the latest episode of the podcast, we dive deep into the realities of parenting and homeschooling neurodivergent kids during this season—and share practical strategies to help everyone thrive (not just survive). Here are 3 key takeaways for parents and educators supporting neurodiverse learners over the holidays: Proactive Planning is Essential: From bringing favorite snacks and engaging activities to prepping for early exits from gatherings, thinking ahead can make all the difference for kids who struggle with disrupted schedules and sensory overload. Let Go of Others' Expectations: Remember that it's okay if our holiday experience looks different than others'. Prioritizing your child's needs over others' opinions is a powerful way to support both your child and your own well-being. Teamwork Makes the Season Brighter: Getting on the same page with your spouse, older siblings, and even relatives about plans, support, and backup strategies can help everyone feel included and respected during festivities.

204  Developing your sensitivity, instead of overcoming it, may be one of the best things you can do for your marriage. We HSPs often think of ourselves as “too sensitive”, but actually, our sensitivity is the very thing that can make our marriages richer and better than any others on earth!I often talk about how ”working with” your sensitivity is quite key to your happiness in love– and your whole life, and it is true there are many ways we can learn to do that to thrive. And, we can also DEVELOP some of what is already there –  deepen it, sharpen it, fine tune what we naturally bring that already is an asset for our relationships.Today I want to specifically talk about one easy way you can develop your sensitivity for a richer, more deeply intimate, relationship. You'll learn what that is, how you are already probably pretty good at it, how to refine this gift, and what gets in the way of it all too often. You'll also learn about a couple (of many more) other aspects of sensitivity you also want to develop.

In this episode, I'm joined by Karen Lee of The Sensitive Foodie Kitchen for a powerful conversation about autoimmune disease, healing, and the role of a whole-food, plant-based diet in supporting long-term health. Karen shares her journey following a multiple sclerosis diagnosis in 2016 and how she uses diet and lifestyle approaches to manage her condition. We explore how plant-based nutrition can support people living with autoimmune conditions, reduce inflammation, and improve quality of life, while still being realistic, nourishing, and enjoyable. Karen is a retired intensive care nurse and naturopathic nutritionist who has a passion for amazingly tasty food that's also great for health. After a diagnosis of MS in 2016, she uses diet and lifestyle to manage her condition and shares this knowledge with others through her website – The Sensitive Foodie Kitchen – as well as workshops, talks and online classes. She published her first book Eat Well Live Well with The Sensitive Foodie in 2019. Her second book, Healing From The Inside Out, is due out 15th January 2026, and explores the benefits of a whole-food plant-based diet for autoimmune disease. Karen is a facilitator for the charity Overcoming MS that provides an accessible lifestyle medicine program that supports people with MS. She also teaches medical students how to cook plant-based meals as part of the Cooking for the Climate module offered by Plant-Based Health Professionals UK (PBHP) and works as PBHPs Event Manager. We also talk about the importance of food skills, community education, and empowering people with practical tools they can actually use, whether they're newly diagnosed, supporting a loved one, or simply looking to build resilience and health from the inside out. This episode is thoughtful, grounded, and inspiring, especially for anyone navigating chronic illness or curious about the role of plant-based nutrition in autoimmune health. Learn more about Karen on her website, Instagram @the.sensitive.foodie, Facebook @thesensitivefoodie, LinkedIn, and YouTube.  __________________________________________________________________

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates last week, but it also increased its forecast for 2026 GDP, from 1.9% to 2.1%, hardly a rate that would necessitate a long string of further cuts. Multiple forces are pulling the economy in different directions, so the 10-year treasury yield will likely continue to move in the same wide band it's been in since 2023. Recent local elections have tilted strongly in favour of Democrats, and Trump's approval ratings are low. It is possible next year's mid-term elections go strongly in the Democrats' favour, and the administration has less power than it does now. With economically-sensitive stock market indices like mid and small caps, the Dow Jones Industrials and the S&P 500 equal-weighted index all breaking to new highs, it's difficult to be pessimistic.This episode is presented by Mark Matthews, Head of Research Asia at Julius Baer.

If you've ever felt “reactive to everything” food, smells, seasons, stress, and been told it's all in your head, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.In this conversation, Susan sits down with health engineer and gut specialist Steven Wright, co-founder of HealthyGut.com, to unpack the real story behind histamine, mast cell issues, gut dysbiosis, and why so many highly sensitive, driven people are hitting a wall with their health.You'll hear Steven's raw story of IBS, panic attacks, “supplement graveyards,” and getting called “the stinky guy” at work, and how that pain became the catalyst for his life's work.

This week I ran into something online that made my ophthalmologist brain short-circuit: a brand-new CDC statement about autism and vaccines that… let's just say does not follow how science actually works. So I'm breaking down the logic, the frustration, and why “prove it's not true” is one of the worst arguments in medicine. Then, because I can only rant for so long before needing to retreat into eyeball science, I walk through two new “Signs & Symptoms” differentials, light sensitivity and anisocoria. Plus, I got strep throat on a cross-country flight, which I do not recommend at age 40. Takeaways: Why the CDC's new autism/vaccine phrasing misunderstands the entire concept of scientific evidence. How to think about light sensitivity like an ophthalmologist (hint: start with the cornea). A simple trick for figuring out which pupil is the abnormal one in anisocoria and why it matters. Why strep throat hits like a freight train once you're over 35, especially in the middle of a business trip. A reminder that neuro-ophthalmologists are magical creatures who can diagnose a Horner syndrome with nothing but a dark room, a penlight, and an unreasonable amount of patience.

Being highly sensitive or autistic has often been misunderstood, dismissed, or labeled as “too much.” Many of us grew up hearing painful messages that we were too emotional, too anxious, too quiet, too intense, or too sensitive for the world around us. In this special episode, therapist and author Julie Bjelland, LMFT, offers a powerful message of validation and belonging: there is nothing wrong with you.This episode celebrates the global reach of the Sensitive and Neurodivergent Podcast, listened to in 193 countries, shared more than 98 percent of other podcasts, and with listeners staying longer than 96 percent of shows worldwide. These statistics tell a meaningful story. Sensitive and autistic people exist in every culture. Millions of us share similar experiences with sensory overload, emotional depth, empathy, exhaustion, masking, and nervous system sensitivity. We are not alone. We are a worldwide community.Julie explains why so many highly sensitive adults are discovering they are autistic, especially women and those who were socialized to mask and overachieve. She explores the overlap between high sensitivity and autism, how outdated diagnostic criteria missed autistic women for decades, and why learning the truth about your neurotype often brings profound relief instead of fear. Understanding yourself replaces shame with clarity and self-compassion.This episode also highlights why sensory sensitivity and sensory overload are among the most common struggles for sensitive and autistic adults, and why this topic became the most listened-to episode of 2025. Julie shares how sensory overwhelm impacts emotional health, physical health, relationships, and identity, and offers insight into how to care for your nervous system in ways that honor your neurodivergent wiring.Listeners will find hope, science-informed validation, and a compassionate reminder that your brain and body make sense. Julie also shares her personal journey as a deeply sensitive person, her passion for neuroscience and brain training, and her mission to support sensitive and autistic people worldwide through education, assessments, courses, and community resources.Whether you are highly sensitive, autistic, exploring your identity, or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a healing message:✨ You are not flawed. You are wired differently. And your sensitivity is real, valid, and valuable.Julie Bjelland, LMFT, is a psychotherapist, author, and global educator specializing in sensitivity, autism in women, and nervous system science. She is the founder of the Sensitive Empowerment Community and host of the Sensitive and Neurodivergent Podcast, listened to in more than 193 countries.

DeepSeek's Security Backdoors — Jack Burnham — Burnham reports that the Chinese AI model DeepSeekgenerates code containing severe security vulnerabilities when queried regarding Chinese Communist Party-sensitive topics including Tibet, Xinjiang, and Taiwan, demonstrating that the model contains embedded political surveillance and control mechanisms. Burnham characterizes DeepSeek as possessing a "split personality": technical competence in general programming tasks combined with sophisticated political filtering and censorship capabilities. Burnhamrecommends urgent prohibition of such Chinese AI models from American critical infrastructure, government systems, and defense networks due to inherent security risks and embedded espionage capabilities. 1956

Allen shares a conversation with Mike Parker, Founder of Liminal Coaching, about liminal state, which is the space between who you are and who you become.   Listen as Mike talks about how his fascination with psychology and consciousness began in childhood, why a deep understanding of metaphors is essential to consciousness, and how he creates safe spaces for people to let their minds wander.   Watch the Someone Gets Me Podcast – Unlocking The Liminal State for Healing and Clarity   Did you enjoy this episode?

Learning hypnosis from the school library was part of a lifelong interest in consciousness and the mind. He has spent all the years since looking into this extraordinary, vast mystery of thought and consciousness that we all walk around using every day. He had a parallel career, putting in mission-critical payment systems around the world, and consulting, which paid the bills. Then, about eleven years ago, life underwent a significant disruption. At that point, thirty-five years of consulting, an MBA, and a lifelong exploration of consciousness through various meditative and trance-based practices came together to create Liminal Coaching.   Website: https://liminalcoaching.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1084896816  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikekparker/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/liminalcoaching/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LiminalCoaching  Substack: https://liminalcoaching.substack.com/   How to Connect with Dianne A.

What happens when AI adoption surges inside companies faster than anyone can track, and the data that fuels those systems quietly slips out of sight? That question sat at the front of my mind as I spoke with Cyberhaven CEO Nishant Doshi, fresh from publishing one of the most detailed looks at real-world AI usage I have seen. This wasn't a report built on opinions or surveys. It was built on billions of actual data flows across live enterprise environments, which made our conversation feel urgent from the very first moment. Nishant explained how AI has moved out of the experimental phase and into everyday workflows at a speed few anticipated. Employees across every department are turning to AI tools not as a novelty but as a core part of how they work. That shift has delivered huge productivity gains, yet it has also created a new breed of hidden risk. Sensitive material isn't just being uploaded through deliberate actions. It is being blended, remixed, and moved in ways that older security models cannot understand. Hearing him describe how this happens in fragments rather than files made me rethink how data exposure works in 2025. We also dug into one of the most surprising findings in Cyberhaven's research. The biggest AI power users inside companies are not executives or early career talent. It is mid-level employees. They know where the friction is, and they are under pressure to deliver quickly, so they experiment freely. That experimentation is driving progress, but it is also widening the gap between how AI is used and how data is meant to be protected. Nishant shared how that trend is now pushing sensitive code, R&D material, health information, and customer data into tools that often lack proper controls. Another moment that stood out was his explanation of how developers are reshaping their work with AI coding assistants. The growth in platforms like Cursor is extraordinary, yet the risks are just as large. Code that forms the heart of an organisation's competitive strength is frequently pasted into external systems without full awareness of where it might end up. It creates a situation where innovation and exposure rise together, and older security frameworks simply cannot keep pace. Throughout the conversation, Nishant returned to the importance of visibility. Companies cannot set fair rules or safe boundaries if they cannot see what is happening at the point where data leaves the user's screen. Traditional controls were built for a world of predictable patterns. AI has broken those patterns apart. In his view, modern safeguards need to sit closer to employees, understand how fragments are created, and guide people toward safer workflows without slowing them down. By the time we reached the end of the interview, it was clear that AI governance is no longer a strategic nice-to-have. It is becoming a daily operational requirement. Nishant believes employers must create a clear path forward that balances freedom with control, and give teams the tools to do their best work without unknowingly putting their organisations at risk. His message wasn't alarmist. It was practical, grounded, and shaped by years working at the intersection of data and security. So here is the question I would love you to reflect on. If AI is quickly becoming the engine of productivity across every department, what would your organisation need to change today to keep its data safe tomorrow? And how much visibility do you honestly have over where your most sensitive information is going right now? I would love to hear your thoughts.

Stacy and Daynah immediately spiral into a conversation that only lifelong best friends (and overthinkers) could have and take listeners on a ride through health, humor, and high-level existential dread. Their chat about The Long Walk turns into a surprisingly hilarious exploration of why empaths maybe shouldn't watch dystopian movies without emotional support snacks, how masculinity could use a software update, and why community matters even when humanity is… a lot. Sprinkle in black-hole anxiety, faith detours, wealth cringe, and The Woman in Cabin 10, and you've got a classic convo: big feelings, big laughs, and big “wait, how did we get here?” energy. 0:00 | Midlife health scares & empath energy 4:00 | College years, identity shifts & big feelings 10:00 | First reactions to The Long Walk 14:00 | Masculinity, humanity & unexpected tenderness 20:00 | Community, connection & being emotionally awake 26:00 | Activism overwhelm & the empath burnout cycle 32:00 | Existential spirals, faith shifts & too many thoughts 40:00 | Sensitive brains, black holes & cosmic panic 46:00 | Trauma media & protecting the empath nervous system 48:00 | The Woman in Cabin 10 & women without the tropes 53:00 | Wealth discomfort, power vibes & the haunting of yachts See complete show notes and more at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠realeverything.com⁠⁠!
