With family: 2 Samuel 15; 2 Corinthians 8 2 Samuel 15 (Listen) Absalom's Conspiracy 15 After this Absalom got himself a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him. 2 And Absalom used to rise early and stand beside the way of the gate. And when any man had a dispute to come before the king for judgment, Absalom would call to him and say, “From what city are you?” And when he said, “Your servant is of such and such a tribe in Israel,” 3 Absalom would say to him, “See, your claims are good and right, but there is no man designated by the king to hear you.” 4 Then Absalom would say, “Oh that I were judge in the land! Then every man with a dispute or cause might come to me, and I would give him justice.” 5 And whenever a man came near to pay homage to him, he would put out his hand and take hold of him and kiss him. 6 Thus Absalom did to all of Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel. 7 And at the end of four1 years Absalom said to the king, “Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to the LORD, in Hebron. 8 For your servant vowed a vow while I lived at Geshur in Aram, saying, ‘If the LORD will indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will offer worship to2 the LORD.'” 9 The king said to him, “Go in peace.” So he arose and went to Hebron. 10 But Absalom sent secret messengers throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then say, ‘Absalom is king at Hebron!'” 11 With Absalom went two hundred men from Jerusalem who were invited guests, and they went in their innocence and knew nothing. 12 And while Absalom was offering the sacrifices, he sent for3 Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh. And the conspiracy grew strong, and the people with Absalom kept increasing. David Flees Jerusalem 13 And a messenger came to David, saying, “The hearts of the men of Israel have gone after Absalom.” 14 Then David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise, and let us flee, or else there will be no escape for us from Absalom. Go quickly, lest he overtake us quickly and bring down ruin on us and strike the city with the edge of the sword.” 15 And the king's servants said to the king, “Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king decides.” 16 So the king went out, and all his household after him. And the king left ten concubines to keep the house. 17 And the king went out, and all the people after him. And they halted at the last house. 18 And all his servants passed by him, and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the six hundred Gittites who had followed him from Gath, passed on before the king. 19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why do you also go with us? Go back and stay with the king, for you are a foreigner and also an exile from your home. 20 You came only yesterday, and shall I today make you wander about with us, since I go I know not where? Go back and take your brothers with you, and may the LORD show4 steadfast love and faithfulness to you.” 21 But Ittai answered the king, “As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, wherever my lord the king shall be, whether for death or for life, there also will your servant be.” 22 And David said to Ittai, “Go then, pass on.” So Ittai the Gittite passed on with all his men and all the little ones who were with him. 23 And all the land wept aloud as all the people passed by, and the king crossed the brook Kidron, and all the people passed on toward the wilderness. 24 And Abiathar came up, and behold, Zadok came also with all the Levites, bearing the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God until the people had all passed out of the city. 25 Then the king said to Zadok, “Carry the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me back and let me see both it and his dwelling place. 26 But if he says, ‘I have no pleasure in you,' behold, here I am, let him do to me what seems good to him.” 27 The king also said to Zadok the priest, “Are you not a seer? Go back5 to the city in peace, with your two sons, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar. 28 See, I will wait at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.” 29 So Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem, and they remained there. 30 But David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, weeping as he went, barefoot and with his head covered. And all the people who were with him covered their heads, and they went up, weeping as they went. 31 And it was told David, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” And David said, “O LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.” 32 While David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn and dirt on his head. 33 David said to him, “If you go on with me, you will be a burden to me. 34 But if you return to the city and say to Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, O king; as I have been your father's servant in time past, so now I will be your servant,' then you will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel. 35 Are not Zadok and Abiathar the priests with you there? So whatever you hear from the king's house, tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests. 36 Behold, their two sons are with them there, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son, and by them you shall send to me everything you hear.” 37 So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city, just as Absalom was entering Jerusalem.

And as for our brothers, they are messengers6 of the churches, the glory of Christ. 24 So give proof before the churches of your love and of our boasting about you to these men.

Then declare to her all her abominations. 3 You shall say, Thus says the Lord GOD: A city that sheds blood in her midst, so that her time may come, and that makes idols to defile herself! 4 You have become guilty by the blood that you have shed, and defiled by the idols that you have made, and you have brought your days near, the appointed time of1 your years has come. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mockery to all the countries. 5 Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you; your name is defiled; you are full of tumult. 6 “Behold, the princes of Israel in you, every one according to his power, have been bent on shedding blood. 7 Father and mother are treated with contempt in you; the sojourner suffers extortion in your midst; the fatherless and the widow are wronged in you. 8 You have despised my holy things and profaned my Sabbaths. 9 There are men in you who slander to shed blood, and people in you who eat on the mountains; they commit lewdness in your midst. 10 In you men uncover their fathers' nakedness; in you they violate women who are unclean in their menstrual impurity. 11 One commits abomination with his neighbor's wife; another lewdly defiles his daughter-in-law; another in you violates his sister, his father's daughter. 12 In you they take bribes to shed blood; you take interest and profit2 and make gain of your neighbors by extortion; but me you have forgotten, declares the Lord GOD. 13 “Behold, I strike my hand at the dishonest gain that you have made, and at the blood that has been in your midst. 14 Can your courage endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with you? I the LORD have spoken, and I will do it. 15 I will scatter you among the nations and disperse you through the countries, and I will consume your uncleanness out of you. 16 And you shall be profaned by your own doing in the sight of the nations, and you shall know that I am the LORD.” 17 And the word of the LORD came to me: 18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me; all of them are bronze and tin and iron and lead in the furnace; they are dross of silver. 19 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Because you have all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem. 20 As one gathers silver and bronze and iron and lead and tin into a furnace, to blow the fire on it in order to melt it, so I will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will put you in and melt you. 21 I will gather you and blow on you with the fire of my wrath, and you shall be melted in the midst of it. 22 As silver is melted in a furnace, so you shall be melted in the midst of it, and you shall know that I am the LORD; I have poured out my wrath upon you.” 23 And the word of the LORD came to me: 24 “Son of man, say to her, You are a land that is not cleansed or rained upon in the day of indignation. 25 The conspiracy of her prophets in her midst is like a roaring lion tearing the prey; they have devoured human lives; they have taken treasure and precious things; they have made many widows in her midst. 26 Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they taught the difference between the unclean and the clean, and they have disregarded my Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them. 27 Her princes in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, shedding blood, destroying lives to get dishonest gain. 28 And her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD,' when the LORD has not spoken. 29 The people of the land have practiced extortion and committed robbery. They have oppressed the poor and needy, and have extorted from the sojourner without justice. 30 And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none. 31 Therefore I have poured out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have returned their way upon their heads, declares the Lord GOD.” Footnotes [1] 22:4 Some Hebrew manuscripts, Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate, Targum; most Hebrew manuscripts until [2] 22:12 That is, profit that comes from charging interest to the poor (compare Leviticus 25:36) (ESV)

Currently, the Pac-12 appears to have transformed into a de facto Pac-2 following a significant conference realignment. Only Oregon State and Washington State remain, leaving the future direction of the league uncertain. However, recent developments indicate a potential shift in focus. Both schools have initiated a lawsuit, centered around the composition of the board and voting rights. ESPN's Pete Thamel reports that this legal dispute revolves around a familiar theme in realignment: financial interests. Yet, there's another intriguing dimension to this situation involving the Mountain West conference. According to On3's Eric Prisbell, the concept of a reverse merger between the Pac-12 and the Mountain West remains under consideration. Nevertheless, the Pac-12's valuable assets add complexity to this conversation. Shedding light on this matter during The Paul Finebaum Show, Thamel explained, "With just two teams left in the Pac-12, Oregon State and Washington State, their primary objective is to ensure that these two institutions constitute the board of directors. The stakes are immense, with tens of millions of dollars in assets at risk, including $42 million projected by the end of fiscal '22, as indicated in the lawsuit. Additionally, there's an estimated $50 million tied to NCAA Tournament units. Surprisingly, the Pac-12 Network, often subject to industry jests, generated $40 million in revenue last year, demonstrating that its network infrastructure holds significant value."

In recent developments, the alleged connection between the notorious BTK serial killer, Dennis Rader, and an Oklahoma cold case has been put under scrutiny. District Attorney Mike Fisher stated on Monday that there is insufficient information to press charges against Rader in connection with the disappearance of Cynthia Dawn Kinney from Pawhuska, Oklahoma.    A month ago, it was disclosed by Osage County authorities that Dennis Rader, the man behind the horrifying BTK killings in Wichita, Kansas, was a prime suspect in some unsolved disappearances, including Kinney's case. The Undersheriff of Osage County, Oklahoma, recently revealed that they have at least four "pretty strong connections" to cold case investigations potentially linked to Rader, implying they might be strong enough to lead to trials. However, Fisher's recent statement contradicts this position.    In a press conference, Fisher explained, “As of this date, the information that has been shared is insufficient to file criminal charges against Dennis Rader.” Notably, the continuous updates and speculations about the case have warranted an elevated interest, prompting Fisher to request the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation to commence a formal probe into Kinney's mysterious disappearance.    Fisher further elucidated that he would proceed with charges if any substantial evidence emerged. Shedding light on his involvement, he added that he was present during a law enforcement interview concerning Rader approximately three months ago. The interview saw participation from investigators spanning Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma, with Fisher and his investigator in attendance.    The crux of the matter, however, is the Osage County Sheriff's failure to share any tangible evidence with the District Attorney's office. Addressing this, Fisher stated, “The information that we have received to this point, there are – I'll call them rumors because they've not been substantiated yet – rumors as to potential other evidence that I have been made aware of. None of that at this point arises to the level of even reasonable suspicion.”    Highlighting the necessity for a methodical and appropriate investigation, Fisher expressed concerns about how the inquiry was being managed, citing instances like the Osage County Sheriff's visit to Rader's residence with a search warrant and the subsequent dig that took place. Fisher's reservation stemmed from his belief that such crucial tasks "would probably be better left to investigators."    While the legalities and intricacies of the case continue to unfold, Fisher emphasized his growing concern for the parents of Cynthia Dawn Kinney. The elderly couple, both in their 80s, have borne the heavy weight of their daughter's mysterious disappearance for 47 long years. Fisher remarked, “Cynthia went missing 47 years ago. They've got no answers.” He further noted that while there's a possibility that Kinney's disappearance was a result of a homicide, nothing can be stated with absolute certainty. The continuous media speculation and coverage have taken a toll on Kinney's parents, who have been grappling with scenarios of what could have befallen their daughter. Such stress has had noticeable physical repercussions on them, leading Fisher to urge the public to respect their privacy.    Dennis Rader, now 78, infamously known as the BTK (Bind, Torture, Kill) killer, has been serving his sentence at the El Dorado Correctional Facility since 2005.   With this case's developments reigniting public and media interest, it remains to be seen how the investigation will progress and whether the family of Cynthia Dawn Kinney will finally get the answers they have been seeking for nearly half a century.

Currently, the Pac-12 appears to have transformed into a de facto Pac-2 following a significant conference realignment. Only Oregon State and Washington State remain, leaving the future direction of the league uncertain. However, recent developments indicate a potential shift in focus. Both schools have initiated a lawsuit, centered around the composition of the board and voting rights. ESPN's Pete Thamel reports that this legal dispute revolves around a familiar theme in realignment: financial interests. Yet, there's another intriguing dimension to this situation involving the Mountain West conference. According to On3's Eric Prisbell, the concept of a reverse merger between the Pac-12 and the Mountain West remains under consideration. Nevertheless, the Pac-12's valuable assets add complexity to this conversation. Shedding light on this matter during The Paul Finebaum Show, Thamel explained, "With just two teams left in the Pac-12, Oregon State and Washington State, their primary objective is to ensure that these two institutions constitute the board of directors. The stakes are immense, with tens of millions of dollars in assets at risk, including $42 million projected by the end of fiscal '22, as indicated in the lawsuit. Additionally, there's an estimated $50 million tied to NCAA Tournament units. Surprisingly, the Pac-12 Network, often subject to industry jests, generated $40 million in revenue last year, demonstrating that its network infrastructure holds significant value."

In our modern society, there is something we are told to elevate above all else: our brand. No matter where you're at in your career, your "brand" can either make you or break you. Or at least, that's what some people say and believe . . . However, during today's conversation, former college football superstar and now author and transformational keynote speaker, Richard Yeargin III, will unpack for us why he believes the development of your intrinsic characteristics are more significant than your extrinsic reputation. During our conversation today and in his new book, “The Man is Greater Than the Brand”, Richard dives into why who you are as a man or woman is more important than how the world might view you, and how you can pursue the character-building traits to flourish alongside that reality. Through Richard's incredibly powerful testimony, wisdom, and insight from the lessons he's learned through some of the valleys he's endured, our prayer is that today's conversation would help you step out of the pit or bondage you may find yourself in and into the purpose and potential God has destined for your life! The result is bigger and better than any brand out there.Link to Purchase Richard's New Book, The Man is Greater Than the Brand: https://www.amazon.com/Man-Greater-than-Brand-Brokenness/dp/B0C2RX95PQ Link to Richard's website to find out more about him: https://www.richardyeargin.com/ Book Richard to Speak for you Today: https://www.richardyeargin.com/contact

Ezekiel 21–22 Ezekiel 21–22 (Listen) The Lord Has Drawn His Sword 21 1 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem and preach against the sanctuaries.2 Prophesy against the land of Israel 3 and say to the land of Israel, Thus says the LORD: Behold, I am against you and will draw my sword from its sheath and will cut off from you both righteous and wicked. 4 Because I will cut off from you both righteous and wicked, therefore my sword shall be drawn from its sheath against all flesh from south to north. 5 And all flesh shall know that I am the LORD. I have drawn my sword from its sheath; it shall not be sheathed again. 6 “As for you, son of man, groan; with breaking heart and bitter grief, groan before their eyes. 7 And when they say to you, ‘Why do you groan?' you shall say, ‘Because of the news that it is coming. Every heart will melt, and all hands will be feeble; every spirit will faint, and all knees will be weak as water. Behold, it is coming, and it will be fulfilled,'” declares the Lord GOD. 8 And the word of the LORD came to me: 9 “Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus says the Lord, say:   “A sword, a sword is sharpened    and also polished,10   sharpened for slaughter,    polished to flash like lightning! (Or shall we rejoice? You have despised the rod, my son, with everything of wood.)3 11 So the sword is given to be polished, that it may be grasped in the hand. It is sharpened and polished to be given into the hand of the slayer. 12 Cry out and wail, son of man, for it is against my people. It is against all the princes of Israel. They are delivered over to the sword with my people. Strike therefore upon your thigh. 13 For it will not be a testing—what could it do if you despise the rod?”4 declares the Lord GOD. 14 “As for you, son of man, prophesy. Clap your hands and let the sword come down twice, yes, three times,5 the sword for those to be slain. It is the sword for the great slaughter, which surrounds them, 15 that their hearts may melt, and many stumble.6 At all their gates I have given the glittering sword. Ah, it is made like lightning; it is taken up7 for slaughter. 16 Cut sharply to the right; set yourself to the left, wherever your face is directed. 17 I also will clap my hands, and I will satisfy my fury; I the LORD have spoken.” 18 The word of the LORD came to me again: 19 “As for you, son of man, mark two ways for the sword of the king of Babylon to come. Both of them shall come from the same land. And make a signpost; make it at the head of the way to a city. 20 Mark a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the Ammonites and to Judah, into Jerusalem the fortified. 21 For the king of Babylon stands at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination. He shakes the arrows; he consults the teraphim;8 he looks at the liver. 22 Into his right hand comes the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth with murder, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build siege towers. 23 But to them it will seem like a false divination. They have sworn solemn oaths, but he brings their guilt to remembrance, that they may be taken. 24 “Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Because you have made your guilt to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your deeds your sins appear—because you have come to remembrance, you shall be taken in hand. 25 And you, O profane9 wicked one, prince of Israel, whose day has come, the time of your final punishment, 26 thus says the Lord GOD: Remove the turban and take off the crown. Things shall not remain as they are. Exalt that which is low, and bring low that which is exalted. 27 A ruin, ruin, ruin I will make it. This also shall not be, until he comes, the one to whom judgment belongs, and I will give it to him. 28 “And you, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the Lord GOD concerning the Ammonites and concerning their reproach; say, A sword, a sword is drawn for the slaughter. It is polished to consume and to flash like lightning—29 while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies for you—to place you on the necks of the profane wicked, whose day has come, the time of their final punishment. 30 Return it to its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your origin, I will judge you. 31 And I will pour out my indignation upon you; I will blow upon you with the fire of my wrath, and I will deliver you into the hands of brutish men, skillful to destroy. 32 You shall be fuel for the fire. Your blood shall be in the midst of the land. You shall be no more remembered, for I the LORD have spoken.” Israel's Shedding of Blood 22 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 2 “And you, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? Then declare to her all her abominations. 3 You shall say, Thus says the Lord GOD: A city that sheds blood in her midst, so that her time may come, and that makes idols to defile herself! 4 You have become guilty by the blood that you have shed, and defiled by the idols that you have made, and you have brought your days near, the appointed time of10 your years has come. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mockery to all the countries. 5 Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you; your name is defiled; you are full of tumult. 6 “Behold, the princes of Israel in you, every one according to his power, have been bent on shedding blood. 7 Father and mother are treated with contempt in you; the sojourner suffers extortion in your midst; the fatherless and the widow are wronged in you. 8 You have despised my holy things and profaned my Sabbaths. 9 There are men in you who slander to shed blood, and people in you who eat on the mountains; they commit lewdness in your midst. 10 In you men uncover their fathers' nakedness; in you they violate women who are unclean in their menstrual impurity. 11 One commits abomination with his neighbor's wife; another lewdly defiles his daughter-in-law; another in you violates his sister, his father's daughter. 12 In you they take bribes to shed blood; you take interest and profit11 and make gain of your neighbors by extortion; but me you have forgotten, declares the Lord GOD. 13 “Behold, I strike my hand at the dishonest gain that you have made, and at the blood that has been in your midst. 14 Can your courage endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with you? I the LORD have spoken, and I will do it. 15 I will scatter you among the nations and disperse you through the countries, and I will consume your uncleanness out of you. 16 And you shall be profaned by your own doing in the sight of the nations, and you shall know that I am the LORD.” 17 And the word of the LORD came to me: 18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me; all of them are bronze and tin and iron and lead in the furnace; they are dross of silver. 19 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Because you have all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem. 20 As one gathers silver and bronze and iron and lead and tin into a furnace, to blow the fire on it in order to melt it, so I will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will put you in and melt you. 21 I will gather you and blow on you with the fire of my wrath, and you shall be melted in the midst of it. 22 As silver is melted in a furnace, so you shall be melted in the midst of it, and you shall know that I am the LORD; I have poured out my wrath upon you.” 23 And the word of the LORD came to me: 24 “Son of man, say to her, You are a land that is not cleansed or rained upon in the day of indignation. 25 The conspiracy of her prophets in her midst is like a roaring lion tearing the prey; they have devoured human lives; they have taken treasure and precious things; they have made many widows in her midst. 26 Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they taught the difference between the unclean and the clean, and they have disregarded my Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them. 27 Her princes in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, shedding blood, destroying lives to get dishonest gain. 28 And her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD,' when the LORD has not spoken. 29 The people of the land have practiced extortion and committed robbery. They have oppressed the poor and needy, and have extorted from the sojourner without justice. 30 And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none. 31 Therefore I have poured out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have returned their way upon their heads, declares the Lord GOD.” Footnotes [1] 21:1 Ch 21:6 in Hebrew [2] 21:2 Some Hebrew manuscripts, compare Septuagint, Syriac against their sanctuary [3] 21:10 Probable reading; Hebrew The rod of my son despises everything of wood [4] 21:13 Or For it is a testing; and what if even the rod despises?

The Case:  Annetta is 40 and is suddenly noticing a lot of gray hair.  She has been coloring her hair for years and is afraid the chemicals may interfere with her thyroid issues and autoimmunity.  She's noticed her hair has also been thinning and looking dryer than normal.    I've shared my journey to find chemical-free hair dye in the past because chemicals can be such a big trigger for Hashimoto's. Check out episodes 121 and 142.  The Investigation When I met Annetta, I could tell there were a few things at play. She was already turning to more natural products but I knew there was more we could do. I also knew exactly where to look to solve her health mystery. Hypothyroidism and Hair Health Hypothyroidism (and Hashimoto's), plays a pivotal role in our hair's health. When our thyroid function is compromised, it can manifest externally through hair thinning, dryness, or even accelerated graying. Addressing the root causes internally is as vital as nurturing our hair externally.  While this is true, for Annetta the graying had been so sudden and in conjunction with the other typical hypothyroidism hair issues. Most people over 40 wouldn't consider going gray to be a health mystery. Was there anything she could do? I wanted to find out so I connected with Jay Small and Allison Conrad who are experts in the field.  They have developed a natural hair care system that works on restoring hair and scalp health to reduce the appearance of gray hair.  Unlocking the Peptide Potential for Gray Hair Repair Peptides, notably a clinically effective one highlighted by Jay, are emerging as groundbreaking in the haircare realm. These small chains of amino acids have demonstrated promise in not only slowing the graying process but also aiding in repigmentation. Jay explains that the key is ensuring these peptides reach the hair strand's core. Their formulation does that without causing adverse effects, blending the best of nature and science. The Importance of Scalp Nourishment If the skin is the window to our internal health, the scalp is the foundation for vibrant hair growth but most people don't think of their scalp health that way. Both Jay and Allison stressed the significance of a nourished scalp for thriving hair health. This includes supplying the right nutrients and antioxidants to prevent and slow down oxidative stress which has a big negative effect on the hair follicle.  Something that Annetta mentioned to me was that sometimes when she scratches her head there is residue under her nails. Jay and Allison explain that many people experience this and it can be part of the problem. The aim is to eliminate barriers like dead skin cells and excess oil that can compromise hair health. Innovative solutions (like their scalp scrub) incorporate mild exfoliants and acids and are designed to foster a conducive environment for hair growth. They don't recommend a more aggressive approach using a scalp brush.  Gray Hair: Prevention and Management As we age, the emergence of gray hair is inevitable. Yet, the onset and progression of graying can be influenced. Jay and Allison were telling me about their different products but I had to wonder if there was a point of no return when going gray. Allison says that their solutions are effective on hair that is less than 30% gray. Their studies have found that if there is less than 30%, the product can prevent or slow more graying, and even reverse some by enhancing the texture, vitality, and overall health of our hair. However even when there is more than 30%, supporting the scalp and using the products can help slow down the remaining hair's graying process. Balancing Act: Ingredients That Count They are confident in their products because they did a lot of research and selected their ingredients meticulously for the shampoo, serum, scrub and supplements. There was one ingredient on their conditioner list that I wanted to question - silicone. Jay explained that in the realm of silicones, not all are created equal. The positively charged ion of Amodimethicone (which is what they use) prevents build-up, ensuring hair remains healthy and vibrant and most of all smooth but without the build up. I was super happy to hear this and to learn that not all silicones are created equal. Mystery Solved The scalp is responsible for so much when it comes to hair and just as we can support our skin and do many things to help the aging process on our skin, we can also do the same for our scalp. From antioxidants to proper moisturizing and targeted support, giving our scalp the needed TLC is imperative for healthy hair and has a big effect on how quickly hair may gray. This was an important clue to solving Annetta's gray hair mystery. But, it wasn't the only clue.  I ran detailed blood work which revealed that she was slightly low in B12 and iron. She also had low vitamin D and zinc. We knew she had Hashimoto's but we needed to run a full thyroid panel to get the whole picture. These tests revealed that she is the ‘unavailable' hormone type. For more on thyroid types be sure to get an invite to my next training by joining my email list.  This was another big clue because this type has a lot to do with other hormones. We did a DUTCH test and saw that her body was low in progesterone.  Next Steps  We supported her low progesterone to help her body better use her thyroid hormones. We also addressed the vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  Next, we looked at her specific Hashimoto's triggers. To address these, we started with a gentle detox based on her specific liver pathways that were sluggish.  While doing all of this, she changed the type of color she was using to something that had less peroxide and she added nutrients to support her scalp.   Eliminating Health Mysteries For Annetta, we were able to find that missing piece of the health puzzle and help her regain her health.

Today, on Karl and Crew Mornings, we continued our weekly theme: "When God Moves", and we discussed boldly giving credit when He does. The scripture reference was Acts 3 (the story of the lame beggar). Peter boldly proclaimed that only Jesus deserved the credit for the healing of the lame beggar. Are we that bold to do the same? How do we respond when people don't accept or understand our answer? Our guest was Jon Fugler. He is the Founder and CEO of Fresh Faith 24/7. We highlighted his book, "Silence Your Inner Pharisee", and he unpacked his own testimony of overcoming performance Christianity. Shedding performance frees us in Christ to let God move in our lives, and points all glory and credit to Him. Hear the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

Having delved into these concerns long before the release of their book: HPV Vaccine on Trial: Seeking Justice for a Generation Betrayed.

In a chilling episode of the "Hidden Killers" podcast, host Tony Brueski delved into the mind and motives of the alleged Long Island serial killer, Rex Heuermann, accused of the 2010 murders at Gilgo Beach. Joined by renowned psychotherapist and author, Shavaun Scott, the episode peeled back the layers of deception, sadism, and apparent normality that often cloak such predators.   Scott, who penned the book "The Minds of Mass Killers: Understanding and Interrupting The Pathway to Violence," painted a disturbing portrait of Heuermann. Beyond the brutal act of killing, Heuermann, according to Brueski, took perverse pleasure in tormenting the families of his victims. "Why on earth are you calling the family? Why are you messing with the people that are just trying to grieve?" Brueski mused.   Shedding light on this morbid curiosity, Scott explained, “Serial killers aren't killing for personal gain. They're killing for pleasure, typically sexual pleasure.” Such individuals find the suffering of others arousing, and some, like Heuermann, even derive pleasure from the emotional turmoil of grieving relatives. Heuermann's audacity was evident when he telephoned the sister of one of his victim's multiple times to revel in her distress.   The duality in Heuermann's personality was another aspect dissected during the discussion. While some acquaintances found him likable, neighbors described him as "grumpy and menacing." This juxtaposition, Scott pointed out, is a hallmark of many serial killers, “They hide this split-off, separate personal quality very, very well.” The narcissism accompanying this is evident in the cat-and-mouse games they play, either with law enforcement, the press, or in Heuermann's case, the victim's family.   His attention to detail, Scott hypothesized, was probably a significant factor in evading capture for so long. "He was very detail-oriented when it came to what he was doing," Brueski noted, highlighting Heuermann's reported obsessive nature. This obsession, according to Scott, would have made him more meticulous about leaving no evidence behind.   The arrest finally came about when a strand of his hair, along with some from his wife, was discovered on the burlap sacks containing the bodies. Such seemingly minor mistakes eventually become instrumental in solving cases that have stymied investigators for years.   One of the most unsettling aspects of such killers is their sexual gratification from their heinous deeds. While some might jump to the conclusion that a history of sexual abuse might be behind such urges, Scott clarified that this isn't always the case. “Sometimes it's exposure to violent pornography at a young age, or even sadistic kinds of horror movies,” she added, suggesting that repeated exposure at a young age can rewire the brain.   But what of the killer's family? Heuermann had a wife and children. Was there any inkling of his double life? Drawing parallels to the infamous BTK killer, Scott postulated that such killers are experts at compartmentalization, meticulously hiding evidence and possibly leading seemingly normal domestic lives. As Brueski aptly put it, it's a case of finding "breadcrumbs" in retrospect.   The "Hidden Killers" episode underscored the complex and often baffling psyche of serial killers. As investigations unfold and more information emerges, society grapples with the uncomfortable reality that monsters can sometimes hide in plain sight, masked by a veneer of normality.

In this enlightening episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, Coach Ashlie Walton and Detective Walton explore a unique parallel between the life cycle of lobsters and our own personal journeys of growth and transformation.   Lobsters are fascinating creatures. As they grow, their old shells become too small and uncomfortable, forcing them to shed these constraints and form new, larger shells. This cycle repeats throughout their lives, reflecting a constant process of growth and adaptation.   The hosts draw a compelling parallel to our own lives. As we grow and evolve, we often find ourselves outgrowing old beliefs, habits, and environments. Just like lobsters, we experience discomfort during these transitional periods. However, it's through these uncomfortable moments that we break free from our constraints and step into new, rewarding phases of life.   Ashlie and Detective Walton delve into this concept, highlighting the importance of embracing discomfort as an integral part of growth. They encourage listeners to view these challenging periods not as obstacles, but as necessary stages that lead to greater reward.   Join Coach Ashlie Walton and Detective Walton for this inspirational conversation, where they draw from the humble lobster's life to inspire personal growth. Tune into this episode of The Tactical Living Podcast and learn to embrace your discomfort as you shed your old 'shells' and welcome the new ones. After all, growth is a journey that demands us to be resilient, adaptable, and always ready for the next stage.   ⩥ PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL ⩤ https://bi3xbvVont.ly/   CLICK HERE for our best-selling products: https://amzn.to/3xaG3xw and https://rdbl.co/3DIQVUC   CLICK HERE to join our free Police, Fire, Military and Families Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/38w2e7r   Check out our website and learn more about how you can work with LEO Warriors by going to: https://www.leowarriors.com/   Like what you hear?

One of the more common issues I hear from my patients is one I have also dealt with - hair loss, thinning, and breakage. Throughout my nearly 20 years of experience helping people with thyroid and Hashimoto's, I've noticed that along with fatigue, brain fog, and weight gain, hair problems are a common occurrence. In the latest episode, I shed some light on the top reasons for hair loss. But, don't worry, I also share practical solutions to bring life back to your locks. Here are the top 5 most common causes of hair issues: Thyroid and Hashimoto's Nutritional Deficiencies Stress Hormonal Shifts PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) Let's dive a little deeper into each one and look at ways you can support hair health for each of these root causes (pun intended!)  Hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's, and Hair Woes The thyroid plays a significant role in our overall well-being, including our hair health. Hypothyroidism, where your body produces insufficient thyroid hormone, and Hashimoto's, an autoimmune disease that mistakenly attacks the thyroid, often lead to hair shedding, thinning, and brittleness. To address these issues, it's vital to take a comprehensive approach. This starts with a thorough understanding of your thyroid status - you have to know your numbers! And, you have to know all of them. Many doctors will only test TSH but that won't give you the full picture. A full thyroid panel is essential. This includes TSH, Total T4, Total T3, Free T4, Free T3, T3 Uptake, Reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies. A thorough evaluation will help identify any imbalances, especially if Hashimoto's is the underlying cause. And, these results will also help you understand your thyroid type. Once you know where your thyroid stands, it's time to support it effectively. A personalized approach to thyroid health, combined with measures to calm the immune system, can slow down or halt the attack on the thyroid by Hashimoto's. A well-rounded strategy is key to combating hair issues. Take Control of Your Thyroid Health All too often, I meet with patients who only half understand their thyroid status because their doctor is only giving them half the story. That is why I created a free Hashimoto's training to help you determine your thyroid type and support it with a two-fold approach. In this workshop, I help you navigate your way to the full picture so you can advocate for yourself and your health.

What many people don't realize is that thyroid health impacts gut health because when your thyroid is off, it can slow down gut transit time, leading to constipation and impaired nutrient absorption. Additionally, leaky gut, where the intestinal lining becomes permeable, can further exacerbate hair problems by allowing unwanted particles into the bloodstream. Balancing thyroid health and gut health goes hand in hand. And, when your gut is healthier, your hair is healthier. Nutrition and Hair Loss Even when the gut is healthy, hypothyroidism can still lead to poor nutrient absorption. When thyroid hormone levels are inadequate, the hair follicles may not receive the necessary nutrients for proper growth and maintenance. As a result, hair can become dry, brittle, and prone to breakage. Key nutrients essential for healthy hair include iron, zinc, and B12. Iron is crucial for oxygen transport and is necessary for healthy hair growth. A deficiency in iron can lead to hair loss and thinning. Zinc also plays a vital role in hair health, as it helps with tissue growth and repair, including hair follicles. Additionally, B12 supports the production of red blood cells, which carry oxygen to the hair follicles. To address nutrient deficiencies, consider adding supplements like Ferrochel Iron, liquid B12 such as the Methyl B Complex from Quick Silver Scientific, or the B12 ND from Premier Research Labs.  For a zinc deficiency, you could try adding Reacted Zinc to your daily routine. However, it's essential to note that addressing nutrient deficiencies goes beyond supplementation. Ensuring proper digestion and absorption of these nutrients is equally vital. Iron-rich foods, a balanced diet, and a well-functioning gut play crucial roles in maintaining healthy hair and overall well-being. Thinning Hair Caused by Stress Stress has a significant impact on our body, including hair health. Whether it's emotional stress or physical stress from illness or inflammation, the body's response can lead to hair problems. Cortisol, known as the stress hormone, can play a role in hair loss, specifically a condition called telogen effluvium. In this condition, the hair follicles enter a resting phase, leading to increased shedding and hair loss. Managing stress is essential for maintaining healthy hair and overall health. Incorporating stress-reducing techniques into your daily routine can make a significant difference. Mindfulness practices, meditation, acupuncture, and hypnosis are valuable tools for reducing stress levels. If you missed our episodes on hypnosis, be sure to go back and check out episodes 139 and 140. Additionally, phosphatidylserine (I recommend PS 150), a supplement that helps lower cortisol levels, can promote better sleep quality and a calmer state of mind. Hormonal Shifts and Hair Loss Hormonal shifts, particularly those experienced during perimenopause and menopause, can influence hair health. As estrogen levels decrease, many women experience hair thinning, texture changes, and sometimes even hair loss. These hormonal imbalances can exacerbate existing thyroid-related symptoms, making it a challenging time for those with Hashimoto's. Addressing hormonal shifts often involves balancing hormone levels and supporting the body during this transition. Bio-identical hormones and hormone-balancing supplements can help alleviate symptoms and improve overall well-being. However, it's essential to make well-informed decisions about hormone replacement therapy and consult with healthcare professionals. Stay tuned and subscribe for more on this in upcoming episodes. Cause of Hair Loss #5, PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) For those with PCOS, hair issues are commonly linked to hormonal imbalances, particularly high testosterone and estrogen levels. PCOS is also associated with issues related to blood sugar regulation. Balancing hormones and blood sugar levels are essential components of managing PCOS-related hair problems. One of my favorite supplements for supporting PCOS is Sensitol by Designs for Health. A balanced diet and avoiding dairy may also help with symptoms of PCOS.  Natural Topical Solutions for Improved Hair Health Incorporating natural oils like Homa, Amla, or Argan for hair oiling can help combat dryness and brittleness. Hair oiling is a beneficial practice where natural oils are applied to the hair and left for an extended period before shampooing. This can nourish the hair and promote overall hair health. Choosing hair care products wisely is also crucial for maintaining healthy hair. Avoid chemical hair dyes, as they can harm the hair follicles and leach into your body. Instead, opt for natural hair dye alternatives (learn more about what I use in episodes 121 and 142).  Topical serums with essential oils like rosemary or basil can promote hair growth and rejuvenate hair follicles. Positive Mindset and Good Hair Mindset is a powerful tool for addressing hair issues and overall health. Visualizing your desired outcome and focusing on positive thoughts can influence your body's response. Remember, your body hears everything your brain is thinking, so maintaining a positive mindset can have a significant impact on your journey to better hair and well-being. Next Steps Hair issues can be a reflection of underlying health imbalances, and addressing them can lead to positive changes in your overall health and well-being. Remember to consider thyroid and Hashimoto's, nutrient deficiencies, stress management, hormonal shifts, and PCOS as possible contributors to hair problems. Don't forget to choose hair care products wisely and maintain a positive mindset throughout your journey to better hair health.
