    *This episode contains mature content. This week, we hear from two remarkable women who dared to pursue their dreams even when faced with disbelief, ultimately dedicating their lives to helping others through their art and work. First, country music star Mickey Guyton shares her journey of breaking barriers and finding her voice in an industry that wasn’t always ready for her. Then, author and speaker Lea Hurley opens up about how her personal health experiences shaped a life and a business she created to help herself but ended up helping others in a way she never dreamed possible.

And I understand the cultural differences, but people were trying to make me palatable to a country music audience.” - Mickey Guyton “Country music literally fell into my lap. “It was a God thing. It was a spiritual thing. It chose me.” - Mickey Guyton “I was like, ‘Why do you think country music isn’t working for me?’ And my husband was like, ‘Because you’re running away from everything that makes you different. Country music is three chords and the truth. Why aren’t you leaning into that?’” - Mickey Guyton “I’m not only pursuing a career for myself, but pursuing a career for people that come after me. How can I help them? This may never happen for me, but how can I help the people that are coming up after me?” – Mickey Guyton “I would say to anyone out there who is struggling to change either physically or mentally or emotionally that you really need to dig deep and find what your “why” is. You are going to have to rely on that every single day when it’s hard.” - Lea Hurley “I’m a major dessert person, so I figured out that I can make nut butter taste like the desserts that I was missing, but still have all the things that I was allowed to have.” - Lea Hurley “I feel like you just have to be plugged into Him, plugged into the Word all the time, so that you can receive what He’s trying to tell you and to be open to where it might come from.” - Lea Hurley ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

    Our Daily Bread Podcast | Our Daily Bread

    In his book From the Pit to the Pulpit, John Stroup shares about powerful, unfriendly forces of life that battered and bruised him physically, sexually, and emotionally. He notes, “I started using drugs before I could drive a car. . . . I quit school and began to get farther and farther into the criminal lifestyle.” Eventually, John’s crimes landed him behind bars. While serving a five-year sentence, the Bible became real to him, and he was humbled before God. By God’s grace, he was liberated from habits that were previously stronger than he was. Ancient Israel’s experience often included oppression and sometimes captivity “from the hand of those stronger” than them (Jeremiah 31:11). Even when their predicaments were because of their own folly, God Himself exercised His mercy and might on behalf of His wayward people. Renewal—including joyful singing, abundant harvests, and celebration (vv. 12-14)—was to be expected when God exercised His superior strength for their good. John Stroup’s life is a testimony to God’s might on behalf of those who place their faith in God’s Son, Jesus. The Gospels witness to Christ’s power to counter the ugly forces of evil in human life. And the strength and power of Jesus can be accessed today through sincere, faith-filled prayer, and heartfelt surrender for all who call on Him (see Acts 2:21).

    Urolithin A & B: Game-Changers for Anti-Aging and Longevity

    The Red Light Report

    In this inaugural episode of The Energy Code, Dr. Mike Belkowski officially launches the podcast's next evolution—expanding beyond red light therapy into a broader framework of mitochondrial health, performance, and longevity.   Dr. Mike explains why The Red Light Report is rebranding and how this new chapter will embrace the Mitochondrial Matrix—a flexible, expanding framework of modalities, molecules, and lifestyle strategies designed to upgrade your cellular energy system.   At the heart of this episode is a deep dive into urolithin A and B, two emerging powerhouse compounds shown to activate mitophagy, optimize mitochondrial efficiency, support muscle strength, and even protect against neurodegeneration and osteoarthritis. You'll learn how these metabolites—found in pomegranates but best delivered in supplement form—fit into the mitochondrial matrix, and why they may become a cornerstone for anti-aging and vitality.   Finally, Dr. Mike introduces BioLithin, BioLight's brand-new supplement that combines high-purity urolithin A, urolithin B, and taurine from pomegranate peel for unmatched mitochondrial support.   Expect both a big-picture reframe of the podcast's mission and practical insights into how to leverage cutting-edge science to keep your mitochondria young, strong, and resilient. Key Topics Covered: Why The Red Light Report is evolving into The Energy Code The shift from the Mitochondrial Triad to the Mitochondrial Matrix What mitophagy is and why it's critical for health and longevity How urolithin A and B enhance mitochondrial function, strength, and resilience The latest research on urolithins for anti-aging, cancer, cognition, and anxiety Why supplement sourcing (pomegranate peel vs. juice) matters for efficacy The launch of BioLithin: the first supplement to combine urolithin A, urolithin B, and taurine Key Quotes from Dr. Mike: “Urolithin A doesn't hype your mitochondria—it housekeeps them.” “Strength loss is one of the biggest contributors to aging. If urolithin B helps maintain muscle, that's a game-changer.” “Instead of chasing the next biohack, we're building the Mitochondrial Matrix—a foundation you can layer for compounding benefits.” “With the right tools, your body knows how to heal. All we're doing is fueling the mitochondria to do their job.” Episode Timeline:   00:00:00 – Welcome to The Energy Code: why the rebrand 00:07:00 – From the Mitochondrial Triad to the Mitochondrial Matrix 00:14:00 – Mitophagy explained: the “garbage cleanup” of your cells 00:19:00 – Urolithin A: mitochondrial quality control & endurance benefits 00:27:00 – Urolithin B: anabolic potential, strength, and joint protection 00:37:00 – Emerging research: cancer, cognition, and anxiety applications 00:56:00 – BioListen unveiled: urolithin A + B + taurine supplement 01:10:00 – How to integrate BioListen into your regimen 01:13:00 – Closing thoughts: raising your cellular voltage for vitality Resources & Articles Referenced: Evaluation and Comparison of the Anti-Metastatic Effects of Urolithin A and B in Esophageal Cancer Cells (2025)​ Urolithin A Protects Against Domoic Acid-Induced Cognitive Deficits via Mitochondrial Biogenesis (2025)​ Urolithin A Abolishes High Anxiety and Restores Mitochondrial Signatures in the Brain (2025)​ Urolithin B Reduces Cartilage Degeneration and Alleviates Osteoarthritis (2024) Special Offer: ⚡️ NEW PRODUCT FROM BIOLIGHT!! ⚡️Introducing....  BioLithin!!!   Your cells are powered by mitochondria — the tiny engines that produce the energy you need to move, think, and thrive. As we age, mitochondrial efficiency naturally declines, which can affect everything from vitality and stamina to how quickly you recover.   Unlike most supplements that focus only on Urolithin A, BioLithin pairs Urolithin A and Urolithin B with taurine, creating a more comprehensive approach to mitochondrial optimization. This three-pronged formula is designed for individuals seeking to maximize their energy, longevity, and daily performance at the cellular level.   Why Choose BioLithin?

    Send us a textTyler Šajdák wasn't supposed to grow up. Born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome in 1993, he was part of a generation receiving experimental surgeries with uncertain outcomes. Today, at 31, he works as an academic advisor, pursues a master's degree, and serves as a powerful advocate for the adult congenital heart defect community."I've been told by people that just by looking at me, they wouldn't know that I had a heart defect," Tyler shares during our conversation. This invisibility is both a blessing and a challenge for the growing population of adult CHD survivors who must navigate a healthcare system still learning how to treat them.Tyler's involvement with Single Ventricle One (SV1) - the recently unified organization combining pre-Fontan and post-Fontan networks - puts him at the forefront of efforts to improve care for adults with complex heart conditions. "I think my role is making sure the other planners are thinking of how the adults can be served as well," he explains, describing how medical conferences historically focused primarily on pediatric care.Our conversation delves into deeply personal territory as Tyler recounts his experience with vocal cord paralysis following surgery and the profound moment when his grandfather, after suffering a stroke, heard Tyler speak with a full voice for the first time shortly before passing away. We also discuss his recent transplant evaluation, where doctors delivered some surprising news.For anyone living with CHD or caring for someone with a heart defect, Tyler's story offers both practical guidance and emotional resonance. From balancing health concerns with career ambitions, to finding community with others who share similar experiences, he demonstrates how adults with congenital heart conditions can thrive while helping shape a medical field still discovering what lifelong care looks like for this first generation of survivors.Connect with the SV1 community through their upcoming patient day in Indianapolis this October - whether you're a patient seeking connection, a parent looking toward your child's future, or a medical professional committed to advancing care standards for this unique population.Helpful Links mentioned during this episode:Boston Children's Hospital Single Ventricle Family Day at the New England Aquarium: https://ow.ly/omax50WAN8AKristi Pena's episode about Barth Syndrome: https://www.buzzsprout.com/62761/episodes/398916Link to register for SV-One Fall 2025: https://www.svone.org/events/fall-The BriefAll your family's pressing concerns and questions, answered in one place.

    Elizabeth Wangugi shares eye-opening statistics—like how 77% of employees, including executives, report feeling burned out—and offers her unique perspective on why burnout is more than just a workplace issue. Our discussion journeys through the hidden symptoms of burnout, why many people (especially leaders) fail to recognize it until it's too late, and the cultural factors that reward pushing past our limits.You'll hear honest reflections on the unique challenges women face, from lack of health resources to juggling multiple roles at home and work, and why support systems, self-care, and the courage to rest are essential for true productivity and happiness. Elizabeth even peels back the layers on concepts like discipline vs. self-control and the power of being proactive in supporting loved ones.Packed with practical wisdom, personal stories, and a refreshing take on life's true successes, this episode will inspire you to rethink your own relationship to work, rest, and purpose. Whether you're feeling the weight of burnout or simply want to build a more balanced life, there's something here for everyone.

Many people, especially leaders and high achievers, don't recognize burnout until they're forced to stop. The societal reward for pushing through pain needs to be questioned.• Connection is a powerful antidote. Those less prone to burnout often have strong, supportive networks—people they feel safe being vulnerable with. High-quality sleep, healthy routines, and regular ‘mental' practices (from meditation to faith) are also common protective factors.• Women carry layered burdens. Burnout in women is amplified by gaps in health resources and disproportionate “second and third shifts” at home. Support for women requires not just empathy, but proactive help—sometimes before it's even asked for.Elizabeth Wangugi is a workplace wellness strategist, trauma-informedembodiment facilitator, and the founder of Exclusive Excursions and the NapConcert.With over 10 years of experience in event planning and organizationaltransformation, Elizabeth helps teams and leaders dismantle burnout cultureby reconnecting to the company purpose, emotional intelligence, and embodiedcare.Known as “The Business Witchdoctor,” she blends behavioral science, somaticrituals, and graceful strategy to create environments where healing and highperformance coexist.

    Read OnlineJesus said, “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You are like whitewashed tombs, which appear beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and every kind of filth. Even so, on the outside you appear righteous, but inside you are filled with hypocrisy and evildoing.”  Matthew 23:27–28This would not have been an easy thing for the scribes and Pharisees to hear. It is a hard truth, spoken by our Lord, partly in an attempt to shake them free of their sin. And even though they may not have enjoyed hearing this clear condemnation spoken, since it came from the Savior of the World, we can be sure that these are words of the deepest love and were spoken so that these men would repent and change their ways.Perhaps each of us, at times, feels like criticizing another. Most often, when we feel this way, it stems from our own personal sin of anger. Perhaps we were hurt by another and that hurt results in a desire for a form of vengeance that comes from anger. But this was not the case with Jesus.First, these words were spoken by Jesus to his disciples and to the crowds of people, not only to the scribes and Pharisees. So in many ways Jesus spoke this for the good of those who were suffering under the misguided leadership of these religious leaders. But Jesus knew that these leaders would also hear His words, so He spoke those words to them. But unlike us, He did it out of perfect virtue so as to care for their souls.At times, each one of us needs to hear Jesus rebuke us in love. If any of the scribes and Pharisees were open at that time, then Jesus' words would have first stung them to the heart but then had the powerful effect of challenging them to change. They needed this and so do we. When we become stuck in our sins, especially if obstinacy sets in, then we need to allow Jesus to challenge us firmly. Such a challenge can be rattling, but that rattling is sometimes necessary. Emotion and passion can lead to sin, but it can also lead to repentance and conversion. The passion with which Jesus spoke became an instrument by which their own passions made them sit up and take notice. The result was that they either became more steeped in their sin or they repented. And though most became even more steeped in sin, which ultimately resulted in their persecution and death of Jesus, we can hope that there were some who did repent, such as Nicodemus. Reflect, today, upon the strength of Jesus' words to these religious leaders. Though they were supposed to be both “religious” and “leaders,” they were neither. They needed Jesus' strength, courage and firmness. They needed to be confronted directly and receive the hard and clear truth about their sin.Reflect upon what it is in your own life that Jesus wants to say to you. Is there an area of your life in which our Lord needs to address you with passion, strength, clarity and firmness? Most likely there is. Perhaps not in an area of serious sin like it was with these scribes and Pharisees, but if we are open, Jesus wants to powerfully go after every sin within us. Open yourself to Him and allow Him to help rid you of the sins with which you struggle the most. And be grateful for this grace when He does.My passionate Lord, You hate sin but love the sinner. You perfectly desire to rid me of all sin and all attachment to sin. Please open my mind and heart to hear Your rebukes of Love so that I may respond to Your invitation to repent with all my heart. I love You dear Lord. Free me from sin so that I may love You more. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image via Adobe StockSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life!

    We dive into the true science and strategy behind aging with power. We're busting myths about menopause, metabolism, and muscle, bone and talking strategy for women over 40 who want strength without burnout.  Know how to prevent the physical “outages” that so often follow menopause, injury, or hormonal upheaval.  Reclaim control without burning out!!  If you're ready to redefine what aging looks and feels like, this conversation is your roadmap to aging with power—and joy.   My Guest: Dr. Vonda Wright is a double-board certified orthopedic surgeon and internationally recognized authority on human performance, longevity, and women's health. The founding director of the Performance and Research Initiative for Masters Athletes (PRIMA), she has served as a physician for athletes at the University of Pittsburgh, Georgia State, the Pittsburgh and Atlanta Ballet, World Rugby, and the PGA. A highly sought after media expert, she has been featured on the Diary of a CEO, Jay Shetty, and Mel Robbins podcasts as well as the Today show, the Dr. Oz show, and in top publications including The New York Times, USA Today, and the Observer. She has authored five books, including Fitness After 40 and Guide to THRIVE. She lives with her husband, a retired two-time Stanley Cup champion, near Orlando, Florida.   Questions We Answer About Aging with Power: [00:06:24] How did your personal menopause experience shape your clinical and personal mission? [00:10:12] Most women listening are hard-driving, get-it-done, but wonder, WTH happened here. Was it like that for you?  [00:16:34] What do you see for the future of medicine and fitness co-existing with diseases not only osteoporosis and sarcopenia but cancer, heart disease, diabetes, etc.? [00:22:53] Why are there doctors telling women they can't gain bone density after 30. What are the science-backed exercise strategies for aging with power, compared to online misinformation and was recommended in the 90s?   [00:24:36] How much of your work is dedicated to educating physicians about updated science? [00:26:25] What are your thoughts on HRT for muscle and bone density? [00:32:47] How can we help under-muscled, under-nourished women ditch diet culture, reclaim their strength, and find joy in movement again for aging with power? [00:35:59] What advice do you have for women when they feel like they're “doing everything right” but their bodies aren't responding—and how can they start to feel in control again? [00:36:26] Instead of losing 3-8% of muscle a decade after 30, how can women flip the script?    Vision for Longevity – Medicine And Fitness Co-Existing Prevention to become the primary model of healthcare, with disease care as the fallback.

    “Healing is uncomfortable, the dysfunction may be painful, but it's familiar. Growth requires stepping into the unfamiliar.” What if the wounds you carry aren't just your own, but echoes of generations before you, and the path to freedom begins not with fixing the past, but by choosing to live differently today? In this episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with psychologist, minister, and bestselling author Dr. Thema Bryant for a conversation that cuts to the heart of healing. Known for her groundbreaking work in trauma recovery and soulful living, Dr. Thema reveals that sensitivity, so often dismissed as weakness, is actually a profound gift, and that the very places we feel most broken can become the birthplace of compassion, resilience, and joy. Together, we explore the hidden ways intergenerational trauma shapes our choices, relationships, and sense of self, and how cycles of pain can finally be interrupted. Dr. Thema shares how forgiveness is often misunderstood, why healing can feel uncomfortable, and the daily rituals that keep us anchored in love when the world feels overwhelming. This is not just an interview about psychology. It's a soulful roadmap back to yourself, an invitation to release the weight of shame, reclaim your voice, and create a lineage of freedom. With warmth and spiritual depth, Dr. Thema reminds us that healing isn't reserved for a chosen few. It's possible for you, too. If you've ever wondered whether you can truly heal, or longed to break free from patterns that don't feel like they're even yours, this episode will give you the hope, the tools, and the courage to begin.

    What the Science Says About How Strength Training Can Prevent and Reverse Diabetes

    Did you know strength training can do more for type 2 diabetes than medication ever could? Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher continue their series on the benefits of strength training and reveal how powerful it can be for managing—and even reversing—type 2 diabetes. They break down why excess sugar builds up in the bloodstream, how your muscles play a critical role in blood sugar control, and what kind of training yields real, measurable results—without needing extreme diets. If you—or someone you know—is dealing with type 2 diabetes, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Dr. Fisher defines type 2 diabetes: it's a condition where the body becomes unresponsive to insulin, leaving glucose floating in the bloodstream instead of being stored and used properly. Dr. Fisher breaks down how insulin resistance begins. When your body stops reacting to insulin's signal to store sugar, it starts a cascade of health issues that lead to type 2 diabetes. According to Dr. Fisher, over 422 million people worldwide have diabetes, and the disease causes at least 1.5 million deaths every year. Dr. Fisher highlights how diabetes is largely lifestyle-driven. That means many cases are preventable or reversible with the right habits—especially consistent exercise and dietary awareness. Amy poses the big question: Is sugar intake or lack of exercise the real issue? Dr. Fisher explains that both matter—but without regular movement, even a modest diet can lead to sugar overload and poor glucose control. If you're not actively burning glucose through movement, even a “normal” Western diet is likely giving you far more sugar than your body can handle. Strength training is a powerful tool against diabetes. Studies show it reduces waist size, body fat, blood pressure, cholesterol, and most importantly, HbA1C—the key marker of blood sugar control. Amy reminds us that it's easy to believe you need drugs or extreme diets, but strength training alone can help manage your blood sugar levels. Dr. Fisher outlines the most effective approach to strength training. The best results came from lifting moderate to heavy weights (over 60% of one-rep max) with high effort, two to three times per week. Why intensity matters more than duration. You don't need long workouts—you need focused, high-effort sessions that push your muscles to adapt and grow stronger. Amy makes an encouraging observation about habit stacking. When people begin exercising, they often naturally start eating better, sleeping more, and making other healthy choices. Dr. Fisher shares results from a large meta-analysis covering 1,100 people. The most impactful programs were progressive—meaning the weight and difficulty increased over time, keeping the body challenged. Why working with a personal trainer or a supervisor can accelerate your progress. Supervised sessions ensure your workouts are safe, structured, and progressively harder. The academic consensus is crystal clear. Strength training helps regulate blood sugar, reduce HbA1C, improve insulin sensitivity, and may even reverse type 2 diabetes in certain cases. Amy offers a compelling reason to start now. Even if you're healthy, strength training provides peace of mind that you're protecting yourself against future metabolic diseases. Dr. Fisher shares his 80/20 approach to eating. He focuses on clean, whole foods 80% of the time and gives himself the freedom to enjoy things like cookies and chips without guilt the other 20%. Amy reminds us that healthy living isn't about being flawless—it's about staying consistent and doing your best most of the time, even if you stumble occasionally.     Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!
