When the unexpected diagnosis of Lewy body dementia struck Carla Preyers's husband, she found herself thrust into a role she never anticipated. "The journey chose me," she explains, recounting the four-year battle for a proper diagnosis and the profound challenges that followed. This conversation reveals the often-invisible struggles caregivers face when supporting loved ones with dementia.The emotional heart of this episode lies in Carla's honest discussion of caregiver self-preservation. Her commitment to morning prayers, positive environments, and regular exercise wasn't just about wellness—it was survival. "I had to manage my energy," she shares, explaining how negativity directed at someone with dementia "comes back to you triple." Her story has now found wider resonance through the documentary "Facing the Wind," executive produced by Yo-Yo Ma, Yolanda Wong, and David Hyde Pierce, which chronicles the journey of dementia caregivers across America.Are you caring for someone with cognitive decline or concerned about a loved one showing symptoms? Reach out to Carla through the links on our show page to learn how you might bring the "Facing the Wind" documentary to your community and join the growing advocacy movement for better dementia care and caregiver support.Carla's Story My husband, Patrick Preyer, was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia in 2018. For eight years, I walked alongside him as his caregiver until his peaceful transition in January 2023. Through heartbreak and healing, I learned how vital faith, community, and support are—especially for caregivers who often feel invisible.That journey is now told in the documentary Facing the Wind, which candidly captures our experience with dementia, caregiving, and the importance of self-care. This film was born out of connection—sparked by the Lewy Body Spouses Support Group on Facebook—and nurtured into a message of hope and resilience.I'm proud to share that Facing the Wind premiered at DOC NYC, one of the nation's leading documentary festivals, and was recently featured on People.com. The film is executive produced by Renée Fleming, Yo-Yo Ma, and David Hyde Pierce.As a caregiver self-care coach, I now dedicate my life to supporting those who give so much of themselves. While organizations like Voices Inclusive Research focus on providing a voice in clinical research to the community, my passion is to amplify the voices of the women caring behind the scenes—quiet heroes who need to be seen, supported, and sustained.Clips and Media Documentary ClipPeople Magazine FeatureFacebook Page We hope you have enjoyed this episode.

What happens when an ambitious entrepreneur completely steps away from a thriving business she's built in almost a decade in business? This isn't just another burnout story of sabbatical — it's a profound journey into rediscovering what truly matters beneath the carefully constructed identities we create. After years of scaling a successful business, I found myself at a pivotal crossroads. The external success masked an internal disconnection that demanded radical attention. I needed to meet myself again, beyond the identities of "coach," "mentor," and "business owner." This episode reveals the three life-changing lessons I discovered during my three-month sabbatical. The insights that have completely transformed how I approach my work, my time, and my purpose. For anyone feeling trapped in the relentless cycle of achievement, questioning if your work still matters, or sensing there's a more aligned way of being—this conversation is your permission slip to pause and reconnect with your truest self. Note: In Episode 44, I shared my decision to take this sabbatical. If you haven't listened yet, I recommend starting there to understand the full journey. THREE CORE LESSONS FROM MY SABBATICAL: Love the Life I'm In: What I discovered when I stripped away my business identity and found I was still worthy, whole, and deeply in love with the life I've built—even without external achievements. Energy Efficiency Matters More Than Time Management: How operating from flow state rather than linear time completely rewired my relationship with productivity, revealing that not all time is created equal. My Work Matters: Reconnecting with the profound impact of story work and witnessing how transformation continues to ripple outward—even in absence. ...and coming soon in my season finale, I will deep dive into The Sacred Integration: Creating a business that breathes with your full life expression rather than consuming it. HIGHLIGHT QUOTES: Time is meant to be in service to my energy. Celinne Da Costa We are not designed to go this fast. As human beings, we are not robots. Even as a high performer, there's a temptation to always say 'yes, I can do more, I can go faster' - but at what cost? Celinne Da Costa Remember that underneath all of the identities is just you. Take the time to meet yourself beyond the identities you've created and find out who you really are underneath it all. Celinne Da Costa My voice carries the frequency of 'I know I'm here' - in a non-arrogant way. I know in my body that when I speak, it matters. Celinne Da Costa TRANSFORM YOUR STORY: If this episode resonated with you, I invite you to explore how these insights might apply to your own journey:

Shelby's Story: My health and wellness journey started over a decade ago when I was injured by the experimental Gardasil HPV vaccine. I went from a healthy and thriving teenager to being nearly debilitated by a myriad of heart conditions for several years.  It was my first experience learning how important personal health is. The single most important.  Once I became a parent in 2017, I began diving deep into the pharmaceutical industry. Being kicked out of our then-pediatrician's office and called a “murderer” after choosing to refuse dangerous childhood vaccinations for all my children; after learning the lack of double-blind placebo control studies for every injection on the market.  Fast forward to recent years, I put on my armor I had built up and stepped out of the darkness of 2021 to build Unjected from the ground up.  After being ostracized in my own home for my beliefs, and bearing witness to the pivotal shift in society, it was the time to fearlessly lead a moment of freedom-loving individuals towards empowerment, community, and love with like-minded men & women across the world.Visit Unjected.com and use code: REVOLUTION for 25% off your membership!To connect with Erin, visit: https://heartwinghealing.com 

First time mama Jess shares her powerful story of leaving her career in Nursing, birthing her first son out of the system in Mexico , and her journey into Traditional Birth Companionship! This is such a refreshing and uplifting story of first time parents reclaiming their sovereignty and creating a powerful and abundant life. Jess's Story: My journey has been a long and adventurous one. I graduated the nursing program in 2020. I began noticing just how corrupt everything really was. I joined Canadian Frontline Nurses not long after I began working at the hospital. I found hope and my world opened to natural alternatives to health. We organized rallies, protests, created pamphlets of information to distribute to the public. I met so many beautiful souls. Meanwhile, I went from a "great nurse" to "bad nurse" the second my colleague's found out I wasn't vaccinated. I was threatened to have my nursing license taken away and face a suspension without pay if I didn't get vaccinated. I decided to go on sick leave. CFLN had zoom meetings every Monday nights and Billie Harrigan was the guest speaker. This woman gave me goosebumps. I wanted her to talk forever. She made me want to drop nursing and dive deep into the real world of pregnancy, birth and postpartum. She opened my eyes to the lies and birthing business hospitals have created. I began her courses while on sick leave. Not too long after, I hopped on the biggest roller-coaster of my life, I quit my nursing career, sold our house and everything we owned, found out I was pregnant, got married, moved to Mexico less than 6 months later and had our baby there. We had a homebirth with an amazing supportive birth team! Now, I'm a happy stay-at-home mom and wife. I am starting up my courses again to become a traditional birth companion. I wrote an ebook on my entire experience "Nurse to TBC: leaving the medical industry". I really want to empower women to take control of their pregnancy and birth. I can only hope that more women in our generation and the ones following take charge of their pregnancies and opt for homebirths.

In this episode, we speak with former Bachelorette Michelle Young — an educator, television personality, speaker, and activist. She tells us about her love for basketball and passion for creating impact, feeling burnout, handling publicity and social media, and being vulnerable. We also talk about how dating life was for her before, during, and after The Bachelorette. [2:32] Little Background “I always knew I wanted to make a massive impact. The biggest impact I could as possible; and that's kind of what led me to where I am now.”  [4:50] Creating Impact “Now, so many people strive to be an influencer, strive to have that social media presence; that never was the case for me… Social media impact was never my plan.” [7:02] Burnout “Nobody talks about the feeling of when you are so passionate but you just can't mentally do it anymore, or you have to take a step aside.” [11:45] Keeping Yourself Grounded “I really could tune that out and put it down. Nobody forces you to be normal like kids do, because chaos continues.” [14:41] Different Generation “It has been kind of heartbreaking with watching 5th-graders, and what they know already at this age… They don't get to be a kid, or what they feel like being a kid is.” [17:07] Being an Educator “Even when you step away, that doesn't mean you just stop caring about it… You definitely go through very uncomfortable moments where you have to learn how to find passion on the other side… I miss it a ton.” [20:57] Speaking your Story “My mistakes, my trials, my tribulations, my weak moments, or the things that I thought were weak in my life, really actually do the work and send the biggest message to these other people.” [25:03] Love and Hate Social Media “I do see the benefits of social media, in a sense of me being able to reach somebody across the world… The other little pieces like, the drama, the tabloids, and all of that, I could do without.” [30:13] Being in the Public Eye “It's not like this daunting thing, but it's just something that's always in the back of your head, and so it does create a little more anxiety with it.” [33:37] Healthy Boundaries “You have to be able to say no, because otherwise, you can't stay true to who you are.” [44:27] Dating Before The Show “I think I really just struggled with being vulnerable…I was a very opinionated person and I could debate all day, but when it came to lovey-dovey emotions, my needs, my wants, or what I was struggling with, I'd never talk about it.” [48:56] Dating on the Show “When you're on the show, you really are challenged to talk about the deep sh** right away because time is of the essence.” [54:50] Lessons for Dating “I think the biggest piece for me is understanding what I deserve, and not being scared to walk away in a situation where I'm disrespected.” [56:55] Dreams and Goals  “Someone has to know what their dreams and goals are, and what they're putting their energy towards.”   Follow Michelle on instagram @michelleyoung Connect with Kelly here: Follow Me on Instagram at @chaselifewithkelly Follow Me on TikTok at @iamkellychase Subscribe to My YouTube Channel Join the ChaseLife with Kelly community!

Paige's Story:My story begins early in life, at age 14.I had failed my second attempt at suicide and was deep into an eating disorder. The defeat I was submerged in led me to my first experience in the practice of surrender. I remember thinking, “God, if I have to be here then show me what I'm supposed to do.”As a gymnast, diver, and swimmer, I managed to scale my education to graduate a year and a half early from high school.From high school, I went to massage therapy school and got certified to work weekends while attending University of Nevada Las Vegas and obtaining a bachelor's degree in business administration. After graduating college, I went on to work in some of the hottest nightclubs in Las Vegas, making a six figure income, working only a few nights a week. I bought my first house and rotated between an Audi, Lexus, and Porsche.In 2012, everything came to a screeching halt after my little brother was found dead of a heroin overdose. I didn't even get to say goodbye. This began the domino effect that led to adrenal burnout, illness, loss of my business, and financial hemorrhaging. I found myself ultimately lost and without a compass. I had no choice but to resign myself to the reality I found myself in: Nothing was in my control. I had lost everything.By 2016, I organized my second enterprise, The Dharmic Path, and I was teaching in other states and overseas by invitation, while also creating my own retreats. In that same year, I also joined the 2% of international Ashtanga practitioners who completed the very demanding advanced B series. I have had the privilege of practicing and aligning with some of the most well respected individuals in the industry. It was during this very challenging cycle where my fortitude and ingenuity gained notice. I started coaching, mainly sharing my skills as a self-starter to other entrepreneurs and individuals seeking radical change.Currently, I work as a personal success coach and keynote speaker, having just published my first book: Leading An Intentional Life. This baby was birthed on the heels of experiencing a life changing physical assault at the beginning of 2019. It was by far the scariest thing I've ever endured. The book is based on a lifetime of personal experience and research I've done from working directly with my own clients and students. I am retiring from teaching yoga this fall and am looking forward to speaking and working one-on-one clients who seek personal success and fulfillment as well.https://www.facebook.com/https://thedharmicpath.com/https://www.creatingthroughconnection.com/https://www.amazon.com/?tag=amazusnavi-Thank you, Paige and to all of The Bamboo pack!Your Host,Brian https://bamboolab3.com/

See all the Healthcast's at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog/ Autoimmune disease is one of the top 10 causes of death for women. The rate of growth of this group of diseases in women over the last 19 years is rapid.  I have come to realize since the first 5 years of practicing Bioidentical hormone pellet replacement with testosterone for women that the treatment we offer at BioBalance Health® both helps treat and prevent these devastating autoimmune diseases!  If you don't know what this category of disease includes, it has many permutations, but the most common autoimmune diseases include Systemic Lupus, Rheumatoid arthritis, Scleroderma, MS, and Collagen Vascular diseases to name a few.  When I first began offering testosterone pellets to women, I noticed that those women who had autoimmune diseases improved, decreased their medication, or went into remission!  It was noticing this effect of Testosterone pellet replacement that caused me to delve into the research articles on Testosterone ‘s effect on autoimmune diseases. This was around 2005 and doctors and researchers had not begun to consider the advantage of testosterone for women at that time or realize how it affects so many diseases that women are at risk for.  When I researched this association between autoimmune diseases and testosterone, I found a lot of medical research that confirmed my observations that testosterone is a key player in the treatment of autoimmune diseases!   What are autoimmune diseases? Autoimmune disease is simply a general label for 100 or more conditions that are caused by a confused immune system that attacks your own cells, instead of attacking bacteria and viruses.  It is like “friendly fire” from your immune system. In these diseases your immune response is “confused” and aims at self instead of viruses, bacteria and cancer cells.  Autoimmune conditions are increasing in number and currently the only treatments are called “biologics” which is a misnomer for “shutting down your immune system” which leaves patients at risk for cancer, deadly bacterial and viral infections.  These biologics decrease the body's attack toward its own cells and tissues which makes the symptoms of autoimmune diseases better but at the same time it leaves your body defenseless against dangerous infections and cancer, which require a strong immune response to prevent disease, and kill the invading organisms. I have many patients with autoimmune diseases now on Bioidentical testosterone pellets who have regained the health of their immune system so it can redirect the attack toward dangerous diseases and away from their own tissues.  Here is an example of one of my patients who took Biologics for years before she started taking testosterone pellets, which cured all her symptoms of low T, and improved, or modulated the action of her own immune system, but it was too late. Story: My favorite example of autoimmune diseases and the power of testosterone pellets is exemplified by one of my favorite patients.  This lovely woman was under 40 when I first met her, and she had young children and a lovely husband.  Sadly, she had gotten an aggressive autoimmune disease called Lupus after a viral infection.  Her body over-reacted to the virus and attacked her vision.  When she came to see me, she considered me her last resort to help her halt the progression of this disease, and to retain some of her sight.  She was already on biologics for some time, and she received monthly steroid injections in her eyes.  In spite of this she had lost the vision in one eye and was going blind in the other as well.  She had read /heard some of my blogs and information about how testosterone “modulates” the immune system and can help control or decrease the damage done by autoimmune disease.   When I first saw her, she was well versed in the benefits of Testosterone therapy in autoimmune disease treatment, and she knew that T stimulates the production of T killer and helper cells in those with poor immune systems and normalizes over-reactive immune systems. Both of which improve the lot of patients suffering from Autoimmune diseases. I told her I had never treated the rare form of Lupus that she had with T pellets yet, but she had other symptoms of low T and had had a Total Hysterectomy and BSO and had no Testosterone blood level.  She wanted to try to both get her body back, her sex life with her husband back and to try to slow down the aggressiveness of her lupus blindness, so we began T pellets. She never had to get another eye injection after her first testosterone pellets, and her condition improved drastically.  She lost the 30 lbs that she had gained after her total hysterectomy, and she got her sex life with her husband back!  Her Ophthalmologist thought it was his steroid shots that did the work and would not be dissuaded from his victory speech…but she knew what the successful treatment was!  It was due to her testosterone! Her Lupus halted its progression after her first treatment, and she could still see out of one eye!  Sadly, she does not have a happy ending.  The biologics for lupus that she had taken before coming to me as well as during her treatment with T pellets had done their damage and she was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer that took over her health.  She came to talk to me to ask me if she could continue to get T pellets while she was treated for cancer because it had brought her life back and she wanted a quality life to the end of her life.  We continued treatment…It appears that the cancer was beginning before we started T Pellets and was too far advanced to treated effectively with radiation or other methods. The disease that she got secondary to her suppressed immune system from the Biologics too her life. The only joy I can glean from her treatment was the joy she had for several years of being able to see, as well as maintaining her relationship with her husband.  Sometimes the traditional treatments we doctors offer are more dangerous than the disease itself. After treating this patient, I was more motivated to help more women with their autoimmune diseases by prescribing testosterone pellets.  Just to be clear, I do not change a patient's treatment from her Rheumatologist, I add to it to make it work better against the autoimmune disease, hoping that improvement will allow my patient to lower the dose or get off the “Biologics” eventually.  So far I have successfully treated Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid arthritis, Lupus, and MS.  All my patients who were already treated by their Rheumatologists, stopped the progression of their otherwise progressive autoimmune disease and improved the quality of their lives. Testosterone studies about autoimmune disease are available in the Rheumatology literature, but rheumatologist don't know how to prescribe testosterone, and they are not in the Gynecology journals for doctors who do give women testosterone replacement. Testosterone for women with autoimmune diseases is a treatment without a medical specialty! Testosterone pellets give women the protective testosterone levels they had in their youth and by adding a very low dose of estradiol they feel “normal” again.  Sadly, the advice of most Rheumatologists is to avoid all “hormones”.  Their advice is only half right.  Patients who have autoimmune diseases should limit the use of estradiol (estrogens) and maximize the use of testosterone.  Estrogen given alone in any form, especially oral estrogen can cause a worsening of autoimmune symptoms, so we only use non-oral E2 (pellets) and we use higher than average doses of testosterone in our pellets and our treatment plan works! We only use the safest testosterone and estradiol delivery system, which is testosterone pellets plus estradiol pellets for women.  This treatment plan has worked nicely. For over a decade with my patients.  I wish that more women with autoimmune diseases would come for treatment to both help their  disease symptoms and to get their quality of life back!

On this episode of The SavvyCast, Phil and Gretchen talk about parenting a child with autism~from the challenges to the special blessings. Phil and Gretchen's Story My friend Gretchen Pickett and her husband Phil join me on The SavvyCast to share a glimpse into their lives as parents of two sons, one of whom has autism. They share how they discovered that their son Reid, the firstborn, had autism. They share how autism affected Reid, how it affected them as a couple, and how it impacted the family. They also share the peace, acceptance, and blessings they enjoy as parents of a very special child. From challenges to opportunities Gretchen and Phil share the many challenges during the early years of Reid's life along with some new ones that are specific to a teenager with autism. They also share how a special teacher inspired them to find opportunities to turn Reid's interests and talents into what is now a business. Yes, a BUSINESS! You will be amazed and inspired as you listen to what Reid is doing now. The photos and video below will share insight into how Reid's childhood passion has turned into a business that will grown into who knows what. A few takeaways from Reid's story. After interviewing Gretchen and Phil, I have some takeaways. First, God makes each child the way He intends them to be. Children with autism are challenging (as are all children); they are also a gift. Second, marriages can stay intact and even grow stronger if two people commit to God and to themselves to "stay together and stay strong." Third, the sky is the limit when you give a child with autism a chance to use his or her passions and talents to do something productive. You will definitely be inspired when you listen to Reid's story. Resources related to this podcast: Mitchell's Place video featuring Reid Pickett: Reid's Business:
