Podcasts about Stress

WATCH ON YOUTUBE HERE. Have you ever looked at your HTMA results and thought: "Okay... but what does any of this actually mean?" If so, today's episode is for you. I'm joined by women's health dietitian and HTMA expert Amanda Montalvo for a deep dive into one of our favorite parts of the Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis test: significant ratios. Inside Nourished Fertility, HTMAs have completely transformed how we support women with period loss, fertility struggles, thyroid symptoms, and hormone imbalances. These tests allow us to see deeper than standard blood work and understand how stress, metabolism, nervous system function, thyroid health, and mineral status are impacting your fertility journey. In this conversation, Amanda breaks down exactly what significant ratios are, why they matter, and how they help us understand what's happening behind symptoms like: Missing or irregular periods Fertility challenges Low energy and burnout Thyroid symptoms Blood sugar instability Anxiety and overwhelm Difficulty recovering from stress We also discuss why hormone imbalances are often the last thing to show up in the body—and why minerals may be the missing piece you've been overlooking. If you've completed an HTMA, are considering one, or simply want a better understanding of how minerals impact fertility, this episode is a must-listen. Ready to Restore Your Fertility? If you have a missing or irregular period and you're ready to uncover the root cause, we'd love to support you inside Premier Period Recovery for Fertility.

Send us Fan MailCan your embryo fall out after an embryo transfer? Do you really need bed rest after IVF? Can walking, peeing, coughing, laughing, going up stairs, having stress, or riding home in the car ruin your chances?In this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols breaks down one of the most common fears patients have after embryo transfer: whether one wrong move can prevent implantation.We discuss where the bed rest myth came from, why the uterus is not an open space where an embryo can simply “fall out,” and what the evidence actually says about bed rest after embryo transfer. Dr. Amols also explains why normal movement is okay, why peeing after transfer is not a problem, and why patients should not spend the two-week wait blaming themselves for every sneeze, step, or bump in the car.This episode also covers the difference between fresh and frozen embryo transfers, why activity restrictions after a fresh transfer may be more about enlarged ovaries than the embryo itself, whether retroverted uteruses change the equation, and why clinic instructions can vary.And yes, we also talk about McDonald's French fries after embryo transfer — because no IVF superstition is safe on this podcast.If you are preparing for an embryo transfer, recovering from one, or stuck in the two-week wait replaying everything you did, this episode will help separate fear from fact.In this episode, we cover: Can an embryo fall out after embryo transfer?  Does bed rest improve IVF success?  Is it okay to pee after embryo transfer?  Can walking, coughing, sneezing, laughing, or stairs hurt implantation?  Fresh vs frozen embryo transfer activity restrictions  Retroverted uterus and embryo transfer positioning  Sex after embryo transfer  Stress during the two-week wait  McDonald's French fries and IVF superstitions  Why patients should stop blaming themselves after transfer The takeaway: after embryo transfer, take care of yourself — but you do not need to treat yourself like a porcelain doll. Rest if you want to rest, not because your embryo needs you perfectly still.Thanks for tuning in to another episode of 'Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday' with Dr. Mark Amols.

Romans 8:16 anchors the believer’s identity in a powerful truth: through the Holy Spirit, we are affirmed as children of God. In this devotional, Cindi McMenamin unpacks what it means to live from that identity rather than slipping back into fear, anxiety, and emotional chaos. When life feels overwhelming, it’s easy to function as if we are spiritually alone, but Scripture reminds us that believers are fully adopted, fully known, and fully secured in God’s family. Highlights Romans 8:16 confirms believers are children of God through the Spirit. Stress and anxiety often reflect a forgotten identity in Christ. In Christ, believers are adopted, forgiven, and fully secure. God’s love is unshakable and cannot be separated from His children. Identity in Christ replaces an “orphan mindset” with confidence. Believers are complete in Christ, not unfinished projects. Our daily behavior reflects what we believe about God’s care. Living as God’s child produces peace, trust, and spiritual stability. Join the Conversation Have you experienced a time when God reminded you that He saw your pain, needs, or circumstances?

Full Transcript Below: No Longer an OrphanBy Cindi McMenaminBible Reading:“The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God” (Romans 8:16 NKJV). Do you realize that when we worry and fret and start living a drama-filled life, we are forgetting who we really are? We are, in a sense, starting to live like orphans. After all, when you are trusting Christ alone for the forgiveness of your sin and for eternal life, you have become His adopted child (John 1:12; Romans 8:14-17). And in that relationship as His child, you have a new identity that does not include the corruption or chaos of your past, or the problems in your present, or the fears of your future. Your drama or problems don’t define you either. In your new role, God calls you: His child – John 1:12 says: “As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name.” His friend – Jesus said “No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you” (John 15:15). A saint – In Ephesians 1:1, believers in Christ are called saints. Yeah, but I’m not a saint, you may be thinking. Your actions may not always say it. But your position in Him says it. You are seen as perfect by Him because You are covered in the righteousness and goodness of Christ. Forgiven – Colossians 1:14 says you have been redeemed (bought back) and forgiven of all your sins—past, present, and future. So your past sins—or your past wounds—can no longer define you. Your slate is wiped clean. Complete – Do you feel like a “work in progress”? Many people describe themselves this way, referring to how they are not yet what God desires of them. But God’s Word is the final authority, and it says “you are complete in Him” (Colossians 2:10). The work has already been done. You just need to live in that truth and wear it. Secure – both eternally and daily, in Him. You are free from condemnation (Romans 8:1-2), free from condemning charges (Romans 8:31-34), and free from the possibility of abandonment (Hebrews 13:5). Unconditionally loved – Romans 8:35-39 says “nothing” will be able to separate you from the love of God – not death, life, circumstances, sin, poor choices, a season of rebellion, nothing! His temple – that means He lives within you. Your heart is His home. And He dwells with you daily (1Corinthians 6:19). Royalty – He says you are seated with Him in the heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6). His masterpiece –created in Him for good words which He prepared for you before you were ever born (Ephesians 2:10 NLT). Fully capable by His power –You are able to accomplish “all things” through Christ, who gives you strength (Philippians 4:13). His possession –You are not your own, you belong to Him because you were “bought at a price” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). That means He protects you and provides for you as His own. That also means nothing can touch you that hasn’t first gone through His loving hands. Intersecting Faith & Life: So, why do we stress about our needs, our problems, our finances, our health, and our relationships? Is that our way of saying God has forgotten us and He won’t really be a good Father to His child? Through our stress and striving, are we saying to others around us, “I’m on my own because God won’t—or can’t—help me.” How you and I live day to day is evidence of what we truly believe. An orphaned child says, “I am all alone. I have no one to help me.” A child of God lives confidently in the words: “My Father is with me. And He will help me.” The more you reaffirm who you are in Christ, the more your behavior will reflect your true identity—a loved, well-cared-for child of the Most High God who never needs to stress or worry. Why would you want to live any other way? Further Reading:Romans 8:12-17 For more on living like a loved child of God, see Cindi’s book, Drama Free: Finding Peace When Emotions Overwhelm You.

This week, John Casmon breaks down the lessons behind Brandon Turner reportedly losing $15 million of investor capital, and why the headline misses the point. Rather than pile on or use the story as fuel for fear, John makes the case that apartments and syndications are not the problem. The real issue is understanding how to identify and manage risk. In this episode, John walks through the factors that actually sink deals, the questions every investor must ask before investing, and how to mitigate risk on both the active and passive side.   Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.   Key Takeaways Apartments and syndications are not the problem. The skill that protects you is knowing how to identify and manage risk, which is different for every deal The first question every investor must ask is "How can I lose money on this deal?" so you can uncover, mitigate, and get ahead of risk Interest rates were only part of the story. Insurance and tax increases, especially in Texas and Florida, did just as much damage The loan product has to match the business plan. Bridge debt itself was not the core issue You lose money when cash flow can't cover debt service, so underwrite conservatively and balance aggressive financing with lower leverage Don't assume the environment you buy in is the environment you'll sell in. Cap rates moved far more than the old rules of thumb accounted for Use a tough outcome as a lesson to sharpen your own investing philosophy, not as a reason to sit out Topics Why the $15 Million Headline Misses the Point John opens on the commentary around Brandon Turner reportedly losing $15 million of investor capital, and rejects the "I told you so" victory-lap energy as a loser mentality He acknowledges how hard this is for investors, who put money to work to help their families and reach their financial goals Real estate remains a tried and true wealth vehicle, proven over the last 80 to 100 years and second only to the stock market, with apartments offering scale that's hard to find in single family Apartment syndication as we know it is still relatively new, and the last four to five years brought historic low rates and a wave of new supply, creating a lot of moving pieces The Factors You Can't Control You can't control interest rates or supply, and several forces hit at once that few investors could have predicted Interest rates shot up faster and further than ever in the shortest window on record More supply came online in the last two years than in the previous 40 to 45 years The takeaway is not that apartments or syndications failed, but that investors have to understand the fundamentals well enough to identify and navigate risk, which looks different on every deal The First Question Every Investor Must Ask Before any investment, particularly for passive investors, ask "How can I lose money on this deal?" Asking it is how you uncover where the risk lives, how to mitigate it, how to recognize when things go awry, and how to cut bait if you absolutely have to This is one of the core questions in John's guide, 7 Questions You Must Ask Before Investing in Apartments If you skip this question, you leave yourself blind to the very exposure that takes deals down Why the Loan Has to Match the Business Plan Many of these deals were bought at low rates on variable-rate debt, and those loans repriced coming out of 2021 and 2022 A rate cap is one tool to soften that risk, and John's team used one, but caps got more expensive as rates rose and are not a cure-all John's contrarian take is that bridge debt itself was not the primary problem. The loan product simply has to match the business plan A value-add plan needs the option to refinance or exit, which is why bridge terms are attractive: there's no prepayment penalty, unlike fixed debt where a 2% prepay fee on an early sale could cost hundreds of thousands or millions Where the Real Damage Came From The business plan has to account for variable factors like tax increases, insurance increases, and rent growth, some of which investors could anticipate and some they could not Insurance and taxes spiked alongside rates, especially in markets like Texas and Florida, and likely did as much or more damage than interest rates alone Every investment carries risk, even bonds, and investors are always weighing what's likely against what's not This cycle delivered the unlikely, and that combination is what made these deals so difficult to navigate The Two Ways You Lose Money and How to Mitigate You lose money when there isn't enough cash flow to cover debt service, so build reserves and underwrite conservatively on tax reassessments, insurance, and rental income If you take on bridge debt, offset it by being conservative elsewhere, such as limiting leverage to 60% or even 50% loan to value instead of 80% Don't assume the environment you bought in will be the environment you sell in. The old habit of adding ten basis points to the exit cap broke when cap rates moved 100 to 200 basis points John's team favors markets like the Midwest where taxes, insurance, and claims risk are more predictable, and structures deals so the loan, the operations, and the exit all line up Don't Let One Deal Rewrite Your Game Plan Using a tough outcome to scare people away from passive investing is the wrong response, because for many it's the only practical path to real estate income The better move is to educate, learn from what went sideways, and become a better investor Every entrepreneur experiments, fails, adjusts, and comes back stronger, so define your own investing philosophy rather than abandoning the goal The end game for most people is financial freedom and the flexibility to spend time with the people they love, and the right lessons keep you moving toward it

Dr. Caroline Leaf is a cognitive neuroscientist and bestselling author who has spent over 40 years studying the relationship between the mind and the brain. At a time when neuroplasticity was still emerging as a field, she was already building clinical tools to help patients recover from brain injuries, trauma, and conditions that conventional medicine had written off as permanent. In this conversation, we go deep into a distinction that changes everything: the mind is not the brain, and once you understand that, you stop being a victim of your own biology.What We Dive Into:1. The brain does not generate thoughts. It responds to the mind. Everything you think, feel, and choose originates in the mind and then gets coded into the brain and body. 2. Depression, anxiety, and other mental health labels are not diseases you have. They are signals pointing to an underlying thought that needs to be found and restructured. 3. You cannot change what happened, but you can change the impact it has on your present and future. Through a process of deconstructing and reconstructing toxic thought networks, the grip of the past loosens. Know Thyself, but not by yourself. A guided space to return home to yourself.https://www.knowthyselfcollective.com✨THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS:https://www.bioptimizers.com/knowthyselfUse code KNOWTHYSELF to save 15% at checkout___________00:00 Intro03:11 The Difference Between Mind and Brain07:17 Why the Brain-Is-Boss Model Gets It Wrong12:25 Consciousness Beyond the Physical Body14:25 Quantum Physics, Microtubules, and the Mind21:24 Science and Spirituality Converging23:41 Early Research: Neuroplasticity and Traumatic Brain Injury28:50 Mind-Driven Change: Telomeres and Cellular Health31:56 Working in South Africa: Healing Through Mental Frameworks34:31 The Origin of the Neurocycle40:13 The Non-Conscious, Subconscious, and Conscious Mind49:35 How Thoughts and Memories Build Into the Brain and Body51:59 The Five Steps of the Neurocycle57:01 Step One: Gather Awareness01:00:24 Step Two: Reflect01:02:10 Steps Three to Five: Mindstorm, Recheck, Active Reach01:09:28 Community Questions: Fear of Losing Your Identity01:14:32 Working Through Shame, Grief, and Emotional Signals01:15:46 Retroactive Causation: Changing the Past Through the Present01:19:28 Intelligent Design, Choice, and the Source Behind Life01:22:45 Mindsets, Patterns, and Teaching Children01:25:58 Stress as Intelligence: The New Book___________✨MORE FROM DR.

This episode is all about that feeling and why it can become so emotionally powerful. We're digging into the connection between food control and everything happening underneath the surface that often has nothing to do with food at all. Anxiety. Uncertainty. Stress. Feeling emotionally stuck. Feeling like there are things you can't say, can't ask for, or can't fully admit to yourself. Sometimes controlling food becomes the place all of that energy goes because it feels concrete, manageable, and safe. Quotes "Control is more of a solution than it is a problem. It's not a character flaw. It is a coping mechanism." "When we have something to improve, to manage, to optimize, whatever it is, it creates a sense of moving forward. And it's not about being vain. It's about feeling like I'm actually doing something when otherwise I do not have that feeling." "When we treat a symptom as a problem or the control as a problem, then we kind of miss the point. The food control is holding everything together, or at least something together." "If it's the structure that's keeping everything from falling apart, then asking us to drop it without addressing what's carrying it kind of feels destabilizing because it is destabilizing." "The goal isn't to take away the control, it's to understand what it's doing. And eventually, to build other ways of feeling safe." "In a situation where it feels like you can't want something, you can't ask for something, you can't say it, there's always wiggle room to try to figure out how you can sort of move the needle ever so slightly, assert yourself ever so slightly, even if it isn't the bigger picture and not actually resolving things." Frequently Asked Questions Why do I feel more in control when I'm dieting or eating "clean"? For a lot of people, food rules create a sense of structure and relief when life feels emotionally messy, uncertain, or overwhelming. Controlling food can temporarily calm anxiety because it feels concrete and manageable.   Is controlling food a sign of an eating disorder? Not always, but rigid food control can become part of disordered eating patterns. Many people use food behaviors to cope with stress, anxiety, helplessness, or emotions they don't fully know how to process.   Why is it so hard to "just let go" of food control? Because food control is usually serving a purpose emotionally. If it's helping you feel safe, grounded, or organized internally, simply removing the behavior without addressing what's underneath can feel destabilizing.   Can stress and anxiety make food rules worse? Yes. Stress, uncertainty, transitions, relationship issues, work pressure, and emotional overwhelm often increase the need for control around food. Many people notice their food rules tighten during difficult or unpredictable periods.   Why do I obsess over food when other parts of my life feel chaotic? Food can become a way to redirect emotional energy. When situations feel too complicated, emotionally unsafe, or impossible to solve, focusing on food can create a temporary feeling of order and relief.   Can you have disordered eating even if your life looks "fine"? Absolutely. Disordered eating isn't only linked to major trauma or obvious crises. Sometimes subtle stress, internal pressure, transitions, perfectionism, or difficulty expressing emotions can fuel the need for control around food.

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, you'll explore one of the most misunderstood root causes of PCOS: stress response PCOS. If stress response showed up as your result on the PCOS Root Cause Quiz, or if you've been told stress might be contributing to your symptoms, this episode breaks down what that actually means from a physiological perspective.Rather than being a personality trait or a sign that you're not managing stress well enough, stress response PCOS is driven by how your nervous system and cortisol signaling respond to the environment around you. Understanding this root cause can transform how you approach healing your hormones, restoring ovulation, and supporting fertility.What Stress Response PCOS Really MeansIn this episode, you'll learn how stress response PCOS develops when the body becomes stuck in chronic survival mode. When the nervous system continuously interprets signals such as sleep deprivation, blood sugar crashes, over-exercise, under-eating, or a relentless schedule as threats, cortisol levels remain elevated and the body prioritizes survival over reproduction.This survival response can lead to suppressed ovulation, disrupted cycles, stubborn weight retention—especially around the midsection—increased inflammation, and worsening insulin signaling. These symptoms are not signs that your body is failing. Instead, they are protective responses to an environment the body perceives as unsafe.Why “Just Relax” Advice Doesn't Fix Hormonal ImbalanceOne of the biggest misconceptions surrounding stress-related PCOS symptoms is the idea that managing stress simply requires meditation or relaxation techniques. In reality, stress response PCOS is driven by physiological inputs, not just mindset.This episode explains why practices like meditation or therapy can be helpful for emotional wellbeing but may not resolve PCOS symptoms if the body continues to receive stress signals such as inconsistent sleep, skipped meals, excessive high-intensity exercise, or chronic under-fueling. When these physical inputs remain unchanged, the nervous system stays activated and hormone balance remains difficult to restore.Stress Response PCOS and Fertility ChallengesFor women who are trying to conceive, stress response PCOS can play a major role in cycle irregularity and difficulty ovulating. This episode explores why medications such as progesterone, clomiphene, or letrozole sometimes fail to produce consistent ovulation when the body is still operating in survival mode.You'll hear how restoring the body's foundation—through consistent sleep, stable blood sugar, proper nourishment, supportive movement, and built-in recovery time—can help shift the nervous system out of chronic stress activation. Once these signals change, the body often becomes far more responsive to both natural fertility and medical treatments.Your Body Is Protecting You, Not Working Against YouOne of the most important takeaways from this episode is a shift in perspective. Stress response PCOS does not mean your body is broken or resisting your efforts. Instead, your body is responding exactly as it was designed to, protecting you during times when it perceives resources to be limited or conditions to be unsafe for reproduction.When the environment begins to signal safety through adequate nourishment, predictable sleep, balanced movement, and recovery, the body can move out of survival mode and begin healing.Discover Your PCOS Root CauseIf you're unsure whether stress response is your primary PCOS driver, the PCOS Root Cause Quiz can help identify the patterns behind your symptoms. This quick assessment provides insight into the hormonal signals influencing your PCOS and helps guide your next steps toward personalized care.The quiz is linked in the show notes and takes just a few minutes to complete.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-185

If watching "Adolescence" on Netflix left you feeling worried about your son, this episode will help you turn your concerns into action. Dr. Lisa Damour breaks down what the show gets exactly right about adolescent boys: why they're emotionally constrained by culture, how that vulnerability gets exploited by toxic online figures like Andrew Tate, and what parents can do right now to connect with their sons.

The 72 files released on Friday don’t include the kind of blockbuster revelation that Trump has teased. There’s no conclusive evidence of alien life or government cover-ups. But the files reveal new details about some recent sightings, along with the government's efforts to explain what many find inexplicable. During an interview with NOTUS published Monday, California Democrat Robert Garcia said that “in the last few months, it feels like Republicans have decided that they’re done.” Garcia also said House Democrats would work to subpoena Vice President Vance regarding his involvement in the handling of the Epstein files. Stress along the San Andreas and San Jacinto faults in Southern California has reached the highest levels in 1,000 years, according to new research from the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

Warmer conditions are putting pressure on fruit crops, making early-season management even more important.

Your chronic pain, your tight hips, your inability to wind down… a lot of it isn't just aging or overtraining.This week, I sit down with Liz Tenuto, somatic instructor and founder of The Workout Witch, to talk about what's actually driving the tension most people have been managing for years without ever addressing the root cause. Stress lives in the body. So does the solution.What makes this conversation land is that Liz doesn't just teach this work, she lived her way into it. She came out of chronic pain, insomnia, and a genuinely hard few years. The tools she shares aren't theoretical. They're the ones that got her out.What we explore:- How 80 to 90% of stress and trauma is stored in the body rather than verbal memory, and why that's the missing piece for most people who've already done the mental work.- Why the tight hips epidemic isn't a mobility problem - it's a psoas that never reset after your last stressful email.- What "functional freeze" looks like for high-performing adults who are crushing it all day and then collapsing the moment they stop.- How to know whether your chronic pain is structural or emotional - and the self-check you can do right now to start telling the difference.- Why high-intensity exercise can spike cortisol and backfire when your nervous system is already in survival mode, and how to sequence your training around your actual stress state.Chapters:00:00:00 What Somatic Movement Actually Is00:03:28 Little T Trauma: You Don't Need a Big Event to Be Carrying Something00:07:00 Signs Your Nervous System Is Dysregulated Right Now00:10:15 Why Nervous System Health Is the Next Frontier in Fitness00:19:31 Why 80% of Your Stress Lives in the Body, Not the Mind00:26:06 How to Tell the Difference Between Aging and Accumulated Tension00:36:23 Functional Freeze: The Hidden State Draining High Performers00:41:40 How to Know When Someone Has Actually Shifted00:56:32 How to Start: Time, Frequency, and What to Expect01:05:40 How Chronic Stress Disrupts Your Hormones and Health01:08:32 Why High-Intensity Exercise Can Make Things Worse When You're Stressed01:14:00 How to Build Stress Tolerance and Expand Your Capacity01:25:06 Somatics vs. Talk Therapy: What Each Does BestAbout Liz Tenuto:Liz Tenuto is a somatic instructor, Pilates teacher, and Feldenkrais-trained practitioner with over 15 years of hands-on coaching experience. She's the founder of The Workout Witch, where she's built a science-backed somatic movement method that's reached more than 240,000 students and 4.8 million followers across platforms.

Everyone wants to know how "bounce back" after having a baby. The truth is, that's not the goal. In this episode, I'm sharing my postpartum fitness plan and the approach I'll be taking during those first weeks and months after birth. Instead of jumping straight into workouts, fat loss, or trying to get my body back as quickly as possible, I'll be prioritizing recovery, sleep, healing, and listening to what my body actually needs. I'll walk you through what my first few weeks postpartum may look like, including why I plan to spend most of the first week resting, when I might begin incorporating light walks and mobility work, and how I'll use my body's feedback, not a rigid timeline, to guide the process. We'll also talk about why pelvic floor health is at the center of my recovery plan and why I believe every woman should consider working with a pelvic floor physical therapist before problems arise, not just after. I'll share why I won't be rushing back into intense cardio, despite the pressure many women feel to lose baby weight as quickly as possible. We'll also discuss the truth about waist trainers, why external support can actually delay core recovery, and what a healthier approach to rebuilding strength looks like. Most importantly, I'm talking about something I think every new mom struggles with: comparison. Because no two postpartum journeys are the same, and comparing your recovery, body, or timeline to someone else's is one of the fastest ways to create unnecessary stress and frustration. If you're pregnant, postpartum, or simply curious about a more sustainable approach to recovery after birth, this episode will give you an honest look at how I'm thinking about this next chapter and why slower may actually be the smarter path forward.   Time Stamps:   (2:11) My Postpartum Fitness Plan (3:22) The Mental Side (9:19) Getting Your Body “Back” (11:20) Comparison In Postpartum (13:32) Sharing The Postpartum Journey --------------------- Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching --------------------- Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation.  --------------------- Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program --------------------- Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life! --------------------- Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share! --------------------- Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

Stopping yelling and punishing often feels like the only option, but it rarely helps dysregulated kids learn new behavior. In this episode, parents learn what actually works instead. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge is an expert in Regulation First Parenting™ and child emotional dysregulation.When you're overwhelmed, exhausted, and nothing seems to get through to your child, it's easy to believe you're failing. But the truth is simpler—and more hopeful.Most parents aren't “bad at parenting,” they're just using strategies that don't reach a dysregulated brain. This episode breaks down why yelling and punishment don't create lasting change and what actually does.Why does my child get worse when I yell or punish?When your child is escalated, their nervous system is in survival mode, not learning mode. That means yelling or punishment adds more threat—not understanding.Their brain is focused on protection, not reasoningMore intensity = more escalation or shutdownShort-term compliance may happen, but no real change sticksReal-life example: You raise your voice to stop a behavior. Your child freezes or explodes again the next day. It feels like nothing is working—because the nervous system never actually calmed.What's really happening in my child's brain during a meltdown?A meltdown isn't defiance—it's dysregulation. The brain shifts into fight, flight, or shutdown, making it nearly impossible for your child to listen or learn.Stress response overrides logic and connectionThe child cannot “absorb” correction in this stateBehavior becomes communication of overwhelmBehavior is communication. Tune in to what the brain is saying.Instead of asking, “Why won't they listen?” try asking, “What state is their nervous system in right now?”Trying to understand your child's patterns more clearly? The Dysregulated Kid offers practical guidance to help you respond with more clarity and less overwhelm.What should I do instead of yelling and punishing in the moment?This is where real change begins. Instead of escalating, you become the calm anchor.Regulate first: lower your voice, slow your body, reduce stimulationConnect next: simple phrases like “I see this is hard”Correct later: teach only after calm returnsReal-life example: Your child refuses homework and starts yelling. Instead of reacting, you pause, soften your tone, and say less. The shift in your calm helps their nervous system settle faster.Before correction can work, the brain must move out of threat and into safety. That's where learning finally happens.Yelling less and staying calm isn't about being perfect—it's about having the right tools.Join the Dysregulation Insider VIP list and get your FREE Regulation Rescue Kit, designed to help you handle oppositional behaviors without losing it. Download it now at www.drroseann.com/newsletterHow do I break the yelling cycle without losing control?Breaking the cycle starts with you regulating first. Not perfectly—just consistently.

Have you ever walked into a room and completely forgotten why you were there? Do you constantly find yourself trying to remember where you put your keys? Since Brian's unexpected passing in January, Adrienne has found herself forgetting appointments, losing her train of thought mid-sentence, rereading emails multiple times, and wondering if something was actually wrong with her. As it turns out, she's not alone.In this episode, Adrienne explores the very real experience often called widow brain or grief brain—the memory lapses, brain fog, difficulty concentrating, and decision fatigue that so many people experience after a major loss.She shares her own struggles navigating grief, probate, finances, parenting, and everyday life while trying to function with what sometimes feels like 97 browser tabs open at once.Along the way, she explores cognitive overload and what has helped her cope. Learning that forgetting things may not be a sign that you're failing—it may be a sign that your brain is working overtime to adapt to a life you never expected.If you've ever wondered why grief makes even simple tasks feel harder, this conversation is for you.Because sometimes healing looks a lot less like moving on and a lot more like walking back into the room to remember why you went there in the first place.Send us Fan MailFor those who have reached out asking how to support Adrienne and her family during this time, click here to donate.

The “sandwich generation” is made up of people balancing the demands of raising children while caring for aging loved ones. This hour, we learn about the emotional, professional and financial realities facing this population of caregivers. Journalist Kelli María Korducki discusses her reporting on caregiving and career sacrifice, while University of Connecticut professor Laura Mauldin offers insight into the gender dynamics of care. And later, we hear from a Connecticut resident and member of the "sandwich generation.” We learn what it's like to navigate these responsibilities in everyday life and what policies could provide some relief. Guests: Kelli María Korducki: independent, New York City-based journalist and author Laura Mauldin: associate professor in the Department of Social and Critical Inquiry at the University of Connecticut and author of "In Sickness and Health: Love Stories from the Front Line of America’s Caregiving Crisis."

In Episode 121, we turn our focus to a critical issue in healthcare: patient aggression and its impact on worker well‑being.We're joined by Dr. Lisa Kath, Associate Professor of Psychology at San Diego State University, to discuss new research on how healthcare workers are affected not just by direct exposure to aggressive patient behavior, but also by witnessing and hearing about it.Drawing on data from pediatric healthcare settings, this conversation highlights how repeated exposure to patient aggression shapes stress, burnout, and turnover—and why the effects extend beyond the individual directly involved.We discuss:* Why frequency of exposure, not just extreme incidents, drives psychological harm * The surprising impact of witnessing or hearing about aggression, and how it increases stress and turnover intentions * Why nurses face higher risk due to constant bedside exposure * How workplace context (e.g., ER and behavioral health units) shapes exposure levels* What these experiences signal about organizational support and safety culture* Practical solutions, including peer support programs and post‑incident recovery strategiesYou can find Dr. Kath here: https://psychology.sdsu.edu/people/lisa-kath/You can read the paper here: https://www.pediatricnursing.org/article/S0882-5963(26)00173-9/fulltext This is a public episode.

In today's episode, Gina discusses health anxiety, especially in the context of the dreaded blood pressure reading at the doctor's office. It is important to remember that the blood pressure reading is simply information and the machine and entire process are not in themselves harmful, though they can be uncomfortable.

We explain that the nervous system can react with dread, stress, or panic before a reading even begins, and that this response is common and not a sign of weakness.We look at how medical settings, the cuff, the numbers, and the waiting itself can become linked with danger through repeated fear and anticipation. We also discuss how home monitoring can sometimes extend the stress beyond the doctor's office, turning what is meant to be useful information into an ongoing cycle of checking and distress.We then focus on the anxiety loop that can form around blood pressure readings. Repeated checking may feel reassuring for a moment, but it often strengthens fear over time. We note that some people also have true hypertension, and that the goal is not to ignore medical care, but to reduce the tendency to treat every reading as an emergency or a judgment.We offer practical ways to interrupt the cycle, including treating readings as information rather than a life-or-death event, preparing the nervous system before appointments with breathing, movement, prayer, or other calming practices, and avoiding repeated checks beyond what a physician recommends. We also encourage people to notice the meaning they attach to sensations, allow uncertainty, and return attention to the present moment instead of imagining worst-case outcomes.We close by reminding listeners that the body is not the enemy and that calm can be practiced gradually. The episode ends with a message of self-kindness and a quote about understanding rather than fearing life.#Anxiety #WhiteCoatSyndrome #BloodPressureAnxiety #HealthAnxiety #MedicalAnxiety #NervousSystem #StressCycle #PanicAttacks #ReassuranceSeeking #SelfAdvocacy #Mindfulness #BreathingExercises #Relaxation #CopingStrategies #ChronicAnxiety #AnticipationAnxiety #MedicalTrauma #HighBloodPressure #Hypertension #MentalHealth #EmotionalWellness #SelfCare #Compassion #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #DoctorAppointments #MedicalPhobia #HealthMonitoring #FightOrFlight #HeartPalpitations #AdrenalineRush #SomaticSymptoms #CompulsiveChecking #UncertaintyTolerance #SelfSoothing #NervousSystemRegulation #MedicalGaslighting #PatientAdvocacy #SensoryProcessing #TraumaRespons #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Every meaningful change begins with awareness. Before we can change a habit, improve our health, strengthen a relationship, or reduce stress, we first need to notice what's happening in the present moment. In today's meditation, we'll explore the foundation of mindful living: awareness.  This guided meditation will help you slow down, reconnect with the present moment, and lay the foundation for lasting personal growth. Perfect for: • Beginners to mindfulness • Stress reduction • Personal growth • Habit formation • Greater self-awareness • Living with more intention Today's intention: "I cannot change what I do not notice." Let's begin the journey together. A DAILY MESSAGE FOR YOUR HEART: Dear Friend, Welcome. Whether this is your first time meditating or you've walked this path before, I'm grateful you're here. Today marks the beginning of a new journey—not toward becoming someone else, but toward becoming more present with yourself and your life. As we begin, I want to gently remind you that meaningful change doesn't happen all at once. It happens in small moments of awareness. A pause before reacting. A deep breath before rushing ahead. A moment of noticing what you've been too busy to see. You don't need to have everything figured out. You don't need to be perfectly calm. You don't need to meditate perfectly. All you need to do is show up. The fact that you've chosen to spend these few moments caring for yourself tells me something important: there is a part of you that is ready to slow down, listen, and grow. Trust that part of yourself. Over the next seven days, we will take this journey one mindful step at a time. Some days may feel easier than others. Some lessons may resonate deeply, while others quietly plant seeds that bloom later. That's all part of the process. For now, simply allow yourself to be here. Exactly as you are. Exactly where you are. That is enough. And so are you. I'm honored to share this journey with you. With love, Mary This is day 1 of a 7-day meditation series, "Sleep Meditations to Stop Overthinking," episodes 2523-2529.   THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE:  Find A Meditation Accountability Partner Consider inviting someone to join you on your meditation journey.

Feeling anxious? Your body might need to down-regulate. Feeling depressed? Your body might need to up-regulate. This modulation of finding balance can be achieved in two ways, through a simple supportive practice Luis offers, and through food. Food affects our biology 24 hours a day. What we eat can activate us into a fight-or-flight response, effectively inducing stress. Or, we can consciously alchemize our food to support our body to be in a place of balance. No shame either way. Eating to balance the nervous system helps the body build capacity to be seen. Luis recommends a snack practice to experiment with and see how your body responds. Here are a few ways to learn more: Luis's book Food Therapy, find it at your local bookstore, library, or as an audiobook: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-bookThe next six month Embodied Nutrition Slow Group, starting July 7 https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-groupYou can read more about, and register for, the upcoming 6 month "Embodied Nutrition" program here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/slow-practice-nutrition-group----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?

As many of you know, I went on my first diet when I was 13 years old. It was Weight Watchers and it shifted how I viewed my body for a decade. I saw it as something weak and that I could control. It would take years of nutritional, mind, and body studies to realize my body was never the enemy I was taught to see it as. I sometimes wonder how things might have been different if I had learned as a kid and teenager how to interact with my body and food from a place of trust. I eventually would see a nutritionist when I was twenty years old and it was she who told me sometimes you will overeat and sometimes you may undereat but when you zoom out over a month you'll see that your body got the nutrition it needed. Learning this bodily trust at a younger age might have offered a framework for how to safely land inside of my body rather than constantly leaving it. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with The Holistic Kids, four brothers on a mission to educate and empower kids from the inside out, about: Their journey to learning more about holistic healthDiscovering the impact of food on their health and wellbeingTheir revolutionize acronymThe importance of mindfulnessHow they have navigated technology and social media when everyone around them is using it more and moreThe role of nature, stress management, and play in healthYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/4-teens-on-a-mission-to-revolutionize-teen-healthI found it fascinating to hear from four teens about what they're noticing about what it is like to be a teenager these days. So whether you're in the process of supporting a teenager or remember what it was like to be a teen, this episode will give you a peek into what the younger generations are currently navigating. Hope you enjoy it!With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with The Holistic Kids: Book: The Teen Health Revolution: https://amzn.to/43xeeyKWebsite: https://theholistickidsshow.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/holistickidsshow/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPlSpecial thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...
