Podcasts about Stress

Hey, Heal Squad! Here's the thing… starting a business is hard,  but keeping it profitable and growing? That's where the real work begins. And today, Bar Rescue's Jon Taffer is telling us what to do. He breaks down why businesses really fail (spoiler alert: it's rarely just money), how ego and excuses (like fear!) quietly paralyze growth, and what real accountability actually looks like, in business and in life. We also talk about how to approach conflict in a healthier, more productive way and how businesses are leaning into wellness trends to bring in more conscious customers. If you've ever watched Bar Rescue (btw, season 10 is streaming now on Paramount!), you know things can get really heated, but Jon is sharing the #1 thing he's done to help him turn his health around. And you'll want to stay till the end,  because we reveal some seriously dirty truths about bars and restaurants… including menus, fruit flies, ice bins, salt shakers, and what you should absolutely not touch when you sit down for a drink.

The demands of life and ministry have taught most of us to prioritize doing over being. Yet eventually we realize that “trying harder” doesn't satisfy our deepest longing for a flourishing relationship with Jesus. Thankfully the Good Shepherd meets us at “the end of ourselves” and invites us into spacious places of renewal. ​Join us for this episode of Soul Talks as Kristi talks to Ron Thompson, a pastor with 30+ years of experience who also serves as a Sr. Spiritual Director on our staff. Ron shares how coming on a Soul Shepherding retreat helped him become enthralled with Jesus, find freedom from depression, and transform how he cares for others in partnership with Christ. Friend, we pray that you can also go deeper in Jesus' grace on a retreat.  Resources for this Episode: Attend a Soul Shepherding Retreat Earn a Certificate in Spiritual Direction Meet with a Soul Shepherding Spiritual Director Donate to Support Soul Shepherding and Soul Talks

Sarah and Susie are participating in an unconventional macabre game when they predict which celebrities will die this year, but Sarah argues it's a "celebration of life." We debate the Tourette's Syndrome scandal at the BAFTAs and consider what the appropriate way to handle it was. Susie shares a story of a woman who's AI chatbot started claiming she would meet her soulmate at a particular time and place, and, spoiler alert, she didn't, but now she's raising alarm bells about the persuasive nature of AI and LLMs. We discuss the Olympic skater known as the Quad God and his disappointing performance in Madrid, and we learn the science of "choking" when put under pressure and techniques to help prevent the "yips," or choking when stressed. Susie describes The Queen of Chess documentary, the sexism in the sport, the little girl who beat Bobby Fisher's 30-year record, and why grown men are petrified of losing to a girl.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $30 off your first box - PLUS free Croissants for life - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription today!This episode is sponsored by Betterhelp.

Stress. We all feel it in some way…big or small. And it's not that stress is actually bad. It's that under-recovered stress is potentially deadly. This week on the IMPACT SHOW, we're talking about something every single one of us deals with — stress. And not just surface-level stress. I'm talking about the kind that builds quietly over time. The kind that high performers carry. The kind that can cost you your health if you're not careful. My guest today is Derek Clark — performance coach, speaker, and founder of the Stress Recovery Game Plan. Derek's story will stop you in your tracks. In his 40s, after years of operating at a high level, he was diagnosed with high blood pressure… which led to open-heart surgery… which was followed by a cancer diagnosis. This isn't theory. This is lived experience. And what he discovered is something we ALL need to hear — stress isn't the enemy. Under-recovered stress is. This episode will challenge you, wake you up, and equip you with tools you can use immediately. In this episode, you'll hear and learn: The difference between strategic, tactical, and responsive stress — and which one is silently draining most high performers. Why "chronic stress" is really under-recovered stress — and how to start correcting it. Derek's powerful 4-step Stress Recovery Game Plan to regain balance daily. Why mindset and sleep are the two most important levers you can pull starting tonight. Practical strategies to improve recovery — from HRV awareness to breathwork to building a better pre-sleep routine. The "Flip the Coin" mindset tool to reframe setbacks and turn adversity into fuel. Some of the questions inside this week's IMPACT SHOW include: You've used the term "stress-oholic." What do you mean by that—and how did you realize you were living that way? Most people think stress is the enemy. You say stress is misunderstood. What do most of us get wrong about stress? How do you personally define stress today, and how is that definition different than the typical "stress is bad" narrative? Can you walk us through what stress is actually doing in the body—physiologically—when someone feels anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in overdrive? At what point did you realize you didn't need more stress management… you needed a recovery strategy? Can you break down the 4 steps of the Stress Recovery Game Plan™ and what each step helps people do? What are some of the 7 recovery tactics inside the Stress Recovery Game Plan, and which ones tend to give people the fastest results early on? If someone is in a season of life where stress feels nonstop—work, family, health—what's the first "small win" you'd recommend to start regaining control? What do you say to high performers who feel like recovery is "lazy," "soft," or something they'll do later when life slows down? Here's the bottom line: you don't need less ambition. You need better recovery. If you're building something big — a business, a career, a family, a legacy — stress will be part of the equation. The key is learning how to balance it so it builds you instead of breaking you. If this episode hits home, share it with someone who needs it. Post it to your story. Text it to your business partner or spouse. And if you're serious about elevating your health and performance this year, take one action from this episode and implement it TODAY. I hope you enjoyed today's episode.  IG: @ToddDurkin @derek.r.clark FB: @ToddDurkinFQ10 #StressRecoveryGamePlan #Ep468 Derek Clark is a stress recovery expert and speaker who helps individuals regain balance, reduce health vulnerabilities, and enhance day-to-day performance. He draws on his own experience navigating two rare health conditions, challenges he attributes in part to the cumulative effects of chronic, unbalanced stress. His story of overcoming adversity led to a complete reevaluation of how we respond to stress and how we recover from it. Derek is a licensed athletic trainer and master sports performance coach with over 25 years of experience working with athletes and high performers. He is the founder of Grizz Athletic Performance and Recovery, a company focused on physical and mental development, injury rehabilitation, and sustainable recovery strategies. He also serves as the Director of Athletic Performance and Wellness at the Greater Pittsburgh Sports Complex, where he applies the same principles of stress recovery, performance enhancement, and holistic well-being with athletes, professionals, and teams. Through his Stress Recovery Game Plan™, a four-step daily framework supported by seven key tactics, Derek empowers individuals to redefine their relationship with stress and build a resilient internal environment—mentally, emotionally, and physically. His approach speaks to the everyday challenges faced by employees and leaders alike, helping them feel, perform, and live better. He believes everyone is an athlete in the game of life—and his mission is to help them recover like one.

Hi Mamas, Download my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨ You closed your laptop. You logged off. So why is your brain still in a meeting it wasn't invited to? If you've ever found yourself replaying conversations, rewriting emails in your head, or mentally drafting tomorrow's to-do list while sitting at dinner with your family… this episode is for you. In this Monday Mindset episode, we're unpacking a powerful quote by William James: “The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another.” Stress isn't always about what happened. It's about the meaning we immediately attach to what happened. As ambitious working moms, we care deeply. We want to do well. We want to show up with excellence. But sometimes the constant mental replay doesn't make us more responsible… it just makes us more exhausted. In this episode, you'll learn: ✨ Why your thoughts, not your planner, are your greatest stress trigger ✨ How to catch the thought that's spiraling your anxiety ✨ What it actually means to “choose a different thought” (without toxic positivity) ✨ Why mental boundaries matter more than calendar boundaries ✨ How your energy impacts your presence at home This is the foundation for creating real work-life balance. Because peace doesn't start with a perfectly color-coded calendar. It starts with what's happening between your ears.

You are not failing because you lack discipline. You're struggling because you're trying to live like a machine.  In this episode, I'm breaking down why most systems fall apart the moment life gets hard and how to rebuild yours so it actually works for a human nervous system.  We're taught to design routines assuming endless energy, focus, and motivation, but real life doesn't operate that way. You have limited time, attention, and willpower, and your systems need to reflect that reality.  I explain why the most effective systems are the ones that require the least amount of thinking and decision-making. When stress hits, you don't rise to the occasion. You default to your systems. If your routine only works on your best days, it's not a system, it's a wish. I walk you through how to design structures that hold you steady when you're tired, overwhelmed, or distracted. We'll talk about simplifying your priorities so consistency becomes automatic instead of exhausting.  I introduce the Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C framework to help you escape the all-or-nothing cycle. Plan A is for high-energy days, Plan B supports you when things feel harder, and Plan C keeps you moving forward on your worst days.  Success doesn't need to look the same every day, especially in different seasons of life. This episode will help you build systems that meet you where you are, so you can stay consistent without burning yourself out.   Time Stamps:   (2:32) Moving Updates   (6:22) The Fresh Start Effect   (8:54) Different Levels To Our Goals   (14:29) Beware Of The Comparison Trap   (16:28) Vanessa's Plan A --------------------- 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?

Hey friend,  Do you feel anxious and overstimulated even when nothing big is happening? Are you tired all the time but still wired at night? Do you snap at your kids and then wonder why your body couldn't calm down? I'm Ashley — a mom living with chronic illness in a neurodivergent family. If you're dealing with constant fatigue, brain fog, inflammation, and broken sleep while trying to keep up with your kids, you're not alone. This podcast is for chronic illness moms raising neurodivergent kids who want stress relief, better sleep, and simple, realistic habits to finally feel better in their bodies. Each episode shares nervous-system-friendly support to help you calm overwhelm, boost energy, and practice healthy habits that improve your symptoms — even in the middle of a full, demanding life. If you feel anxious, overstimulated, and tired all the time — but can't figure out why your body won't calm down — your breathing pattern may be part of the problem. In this episode, I explain how shallow breathing keeps your nervous system stuck in low-level fight-or-flight, why that leads to burnout symptoms, chronic stress, sleep disruption, and exhaustion, and how to use simple, repeatable resets to support your nervous system. You'll learn: How shallow breathing fuels anxiety and fatigue Why you feel wired and exhausted at the same time How to use the longer exhale reset during hard parenting moments A 2-minute floor reset to calm your nervous system How Air (Power 9) supports Stress and Rest naturally If you've been asking, “Why am I so tired all the time?” — this episode connects the dots.

Is fasting actually helping your hormones and recovery - or quietly making things worse?In this episode, I break down the science behind fasting, autophagy, and inflammation for women 35+ who train hard.You'll learn:What autophagy really is (and what actually triggers it)Why calorie restriction — not just skipping meals — drives most of the researchHow fasting impacts cortisol and recovery in high-intensity trainingThe difference between correlation and causation in inflammation claimsWhen fasting can be strategic - and when it becomes under-fuelingIf you're a female CrossFitter over 35 trying to lose fat, support hormone balance, and improve recovery, this episode will help you understand whether fasting fits your lifestyle ... or if better fueling and stress management will get you further.Because for most active women, the solution isn't more restriction ... it's smarter structure.Book a nutrition consult by CLICKING HERE Follow me on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cherylnasso/Join my private community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/294530606718030

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Ryan: First off, I would like to say thanks for all that you do in supporting a healthy community, it's greatly appreciated. My question has to do with what and how much physical activity should you do while you are sick, along with what additional health modalities would you suggest. When you are sick or feeling like you're getting sick, do you continue hitting your 10,000 steps per day? Weight lift? Cardio? HIIT? Continue working out but at a reduced intensity? Should you substitute some activity for red light? Sauna? Yoga? And how would this differ from a cold to a fever? Thanks again!      Ann: Hi Dr. Cabral and as always thank you for being such a champion for us out here :) A friend swears that Milk Thistle helped her when she was battling liver cancer. I have NAFLD and am working to reduce it, and besides the ways you have outlined to help (episode 3017), I'm wondering if milk thistle could be a good addition? Thank you so much - have a blessed day:)      Dawn Marie:  Hi, Dr. Cabral. I had mono as a child, and again in 2023 when I was 48 years of age. In 2023, I was on day 17 of the detox when the mono re-emerged and I was quite sick, almost requiring hospitalization--liver enzymes quite high, thickening of gallbladder walls, and enlarged spleen. My doctor actually wrote me a referral to a surgeon to likely have my gall bladder removed! Thank goodness, after years of listening to your podcasts, I knew to do some research and discovered that after I recovered from the mono, all would return to normal and they did. My understanding is that Epstein-Barr "lives" in the liver and is difficult to fully heal from. I'd like to "kick it out" for good. Is there a way to fully heal from EBV? Is there any risk of it re-emerging if I try to do another 21-day detox?      Dylaini: Hi Dr Cabral! Thanks for all you do, you're a wealth of knowledge! I am working with a lot of tinnitus clients and some claim it's from being in the military and being exposed to loud noises, do you think this is simply a "stress" on the body and isn't necessarily a permeant issue from being exposed to loud noises? Thanks again!     Josephine: Hi Dr Cabral, you've been an amazing ing help to me over the years, thank you. I'm a 44year old woman living in Australia. I have idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis (IGH) on my legs and arms. I get this much more so than brown pigment spots. I understand sun protection is the best way to prevent this, however I'm wondering if you have any tips for how to treat it (most sources say pigment won't come back) and also what supplements or topical treatments (excluding sunscreen) might make the skin less susceptible.

03/01/2026The Healthy Matters PodcastS05_E10 - Stress!  It's Not Just in Your Head...With Special Guest: Dr. Mitch Radin, PsyD, LP Stress isn't just a feeling - it's a full-body event that can put the brain and body in motion, and at the right time, that's a good thing!  But chronic stress can wreak all kinds of havoc on our bodies and chip away at our sleep, immunity, digestion and even our memory.  But how does the brain-body connection actually work?  Why is there such variability in how each of us reacts to stress?  And what can we do to keep our cool when the going gets tough?On Episode 10, we'll sit down with Dr. Mitch Radin (PsyD, LP) to break down the science of the flight-or-flight response and get to the bottom of how outside stress can have an impact inside our body.  We'll explore the dialogue between the brain and body, the real effects chronic stress can have on us, and action anyone can take to build resilience and reclaim calm.  Join us!Got healthcare questions or ideas for future shows?Email - healthymatters@hcmed.orgCall - 612-873-TALK (8255)Get a preview of upcoming shows on social media and find out more about our show at www.healthymatters.org.

Pressure culture did not begin in your company.It began somewhere earlier.In this episode, we slow down and trace leadership stress back to attachment patterns, early responsibility, and the emotional climate of home. Not to analyze. Not to diagnose. Simply to notice.Many driven, high-performing leaders assume urgency is part of their personality. But often, urgency is learned. It was adaptive. It reduced chaos. It stabilized rooms. It protected connection. And what protected you early in life can quietly become the atmosphere you transmit at work.This is not a conversation about productivity or performance optimization. It is not a new leadership tactic.This is identity-level recalibration.In this episode, we gently explore questions such as:• Who carried anxiety in your home growing up?• Who held everything together?• What did love feel like — steady, conditional, earned through responsibility?• Where did urgency first feel necessary?For many leaders who have been in long-term committed relationships, these patterns have surfaced again. Marriage and decade-long partnerships often reveal attachment dynamics we did not see in childhood. Not because something is wrong, but because intimacy exposes what leadership can hide.Workplace culture often mirrors attachment patterns at home. If love once felt connected to performance, leadership may feel fused with responsibility. If stability required vigilance, leadership may default to hyper-responsibility. If chaos decreased when you increased, you may still increase automatically.This episode moves from unconscious repetition to conscious presence.Not to rewrite your past.Not to blame your story.But to integrate it.Because what is learned can be unlearned. Not erased. Integrated.Key takeaways:• Urgency is often inherited, not invented.• Leadership stress may be attachment stress resurfacing.• Compassion increases when you recognize adaptation instead of labeling it flaw.• You are not your survival strategy.• Culture at work mirrors nervous system patterns formed at home.We do not rush to resolution here. Recognition precedes repair. Presence precedes change.Micro Recalibration:Pause and ask yourself gently:Where did urgency first feel necessary?Let a memory surface without analysis.Then say quietly:That was then.

Sleep isn't just about feeling rested. It's about your heart. To close out American Heart Month, we're diving into one of the most overlooked drivers of cardiovascular disease: poor sleep. On this episode of The Heart of Innovation, hosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips explore: • Why sleep deprivation increases your risk of heart attack and stroke • The connection between sleep, vascular inflammation, and blood pressure • How disrupted sleep affects circulation and long-term cardiovascular health And then we introduce you to one of the most fascinating innovators in health tech today. Meredith Perry, Founder & CEO of Elemind, has developed a groundbreaking, non-pharmaceutical approach designed to help you fall asleep faster by interacting directly with brainwave activity. Instead of pills, sedation, or habit-forming medications, her technology aims to gently guide your brain into sleep. She's even tested it publicly through her bold "Sleeping with the CEO" campaign — putting strangers to sleep on the streets of New York, on trains, and even on planes. This isn't a gimmick. It's a conversation about the future of sleep, brain science, and cardiovascular prevention. If you struggle with: • Insomnia • Racing thoughts at night • High blood pressure • Stress-related sleep issues • Cardiovascular risk factors This episode is for you. Because heart health doesn't start in the cath lab. It starts at night. Subscribe to our channel for conversations at the intersection of innovation and cardiovascular care.

In der AfD wuchert die Vetternwirtschaft. Väter, Geschwister, 85-Jährige, selbst die eigenen Fußballkumpels. Sie alle wurden von Parteifreunden angestellt – teilweise mit schön hohen Gehältern, teilweise ohne dass sie dafür erkennbar etwas tun mussten. Der Filz, den die AfD bei anderen Parteien immer wieder anprangert, er scheint gerade in der Alternative zu gedeihen. Das sorgt auch intern für Stress. Die AfD steckt in der gravierendsten Krise ihrer noch jungen Geschichte, obwohl die Umfragewerte bislang stetig wuchsen. Und obwohl ein Gericht gerade feststellte, dass der Verfassungsschutz die AfD zumindest auf Bundesebene nicht als “gesichert rechtsextrem” bezeichnen darf. Vorerst zumindest. Wie gefährlich werden die Vetternwirtschafts-Skandale für die AfD? Jucken Sie Ihre Wähler und Anhänger überhaupt? Und was bedeuten die Affären für die künftigen Chancen der Partei – nicht nur bei den anstehenden Landtagswahlen?

Want to talk about what you're hearing in this episode with Josh and Drew and others that share your experience?https://disordered.fm/community----In this episode, Josh and Drew break down the "Stress Jug"—a metaphor designed to explain why anxiety and panic often seem to appear out of nowhere. The guys discuss how accumulated stress, both positive and negative, can cause your "threat response" to overflow, leading to sensitization and the search for a threat where none exists.The Mechanics of Overflow: How the amygdala misinterprets a full "stress jug" as immediate danger, triggering unexpected fear and physical symptoms.The Role of Meaning-Making: Why your brain creates narratives (like health anxiety or fear of "going crazy") to explain internal discomfort.Beyond "Emptying the Jug": Why recovery isn't about avoiding stress or keeping the jug empty, but learning to tolerate the overflow when life gets heavy."Meta-Stress": Understanding the additional weight of being stressed about being stressed, and how that contributes to the cycle of disordered anxiety.The "Gunk" at the Bottom: Addressing long-term factors like grief, self-esteem, or unprocessed emotions that occupy space in your jug.We're also sharing "Did It Anyway" stories from the community, including a listener's trip to Jamaica despite anxiety and a first-time solo drive after years of avoidance. These stories highlight the importance of taking action even when you don't yet believe you are safe.---The Disordered Guide to Health Anxiety is now available.

Getting a first smartphone has become a modern rite of passage for many children and teens. And with the rise of social media and the constant need to stay connected, today's kids are spending more time online than any other generation.  But parents are often just as glued to screens as their children, and many are concerned that their own tech habits are straining family relationships and affecting their mental health. In fact, a 2024 report from the U.S. surgeon general found that 48% of parents say their stress is completely overwhelming on most days. In this episode of "After the Fact," Pew expert Jessica Roark discusses why screens and social media can have a negative impact on mental health. And Andrea Davis, founder and CEO of Better Screen Time, shares strategies to help families build and maintain healthy tech habits.

Click to Send us a text!High speed is useless if your biology is stuck in the pits. We pull back the curtain on how stress quietly starts in the gut, not the mind, and why that single shift explains brain fog, slower reaction time, edgy radio chatter, and the creeping fatigue that steals races. Instead of pushing more caffeine and grit, we map the gut-brain loop that runs on serotonin, dopamine precursors, GABA influence, and immune signaling—and show how travel, irregular meals, dehydration, and late nights derail absorption and throttle neurotransmitters.From there, we walk through a precision, data-first approach used with elite performers: saliva to track cortisol rhythm, hair to assess mineral reserves, urine markers for gut function, organic acids for mitochondrial output, and omega ratios for inflammation load. This isn't about chasing symptoms or tossing supplements at the wall. It's about reading the trends standard labs miss, then restoring digestion, rebalancing minerals like magnesium and sodium-potassium, supporting mitochondria for clean energy, and timing caffeine and sleep anchors to stabilize focus when it counts.You'll hear why high performers often need restoration more than stimulation, plus practical moves you can apply during race week: mineral-rich hydration, protein-forward meals away from big caffeine hits, micro-breathing resets between segments, sunlight and mobility to lock circadian rhythm, and post-race refuel that cuts the cortisol tail. Stress stops being a badge and becomes a signal. Champions run diagnostics early, fix the terrain, and let performance flow—because the fastest car still needs a stable driver's nervous system to find clean air.If this hits home, subscribe, share with your crew, and leave a quick review with your top stress signal.

When we were born, we we born perfect. As we grow older and life begins to happen to us, we can very easily lose sight of our perfect true self. But the truth is that authentic, true version of ourselves never really leave us, it stays within. Our true self, our consciousness, our awareness is always there observing. This meditation aims to help us reconnect with our true self through our breath.

Chronic binge eating disorder is not a failure of willpower. It is a nervous system pattern shaped by restriction, shame, trauma, and unmet needs. In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne Miller explores why binge eating becomes chronic, how dieting and food scarcity fuel the cycle, and what real recovery actually looks like for adults living with long-term binge eating disorder. If you feel stuck in the binge cycle, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and a realistic path forward. Chronic Binge Eating Disorder Is Not About Weakness Many people living with chronic binge eating disorder believe that if they were more disciplined, more motivated, or more in control, the behavior would stop. This episode challenges that harmful narrative. Chronic binge eating disorder persists because powerful biological and psychological systems are involved. Restriction increases hunger hormones and food preoccupation. Stress activates survival responses. Shame reinforces secrecy and isolation. Dr. Marianne explains why binge eating makes sense in context and why understanding the function of the behavior is essential for sustainable binge eating recovery. Why Binge Eating Becomes Chronic Long-term binge eating disorder rarely develops in a vacuum. Dieting, weight stigma, trauma, sensory overload, executive functioning strain, and chronic stress all contribute to the cycle. When the body experiences restriction or perceived scarcity, it responds with urgency. When the nervous system feels overwhelmed, binge eating can temporarily regulate distress. This episode explores how biological drives, nervous system regulation, and shame interact to keep binge eating disorder chronic, even when someone desperately wants change. Neurodivergence, Sensory Needs, and Binge Eating Disorder For many adults, chronic binge eating disorder intersects with ADHD, autism, and other forms of neurodivergence. Food may provide stimulation, grounding, predictability, or relief from decision fatigue. Traditional binge eating treatment models often overlook these factors. Dr. Marianne discusses how a neurodivergent-affirming approach to binge eating recovery can reduce shame and increase effectiveness by supporting sensory needs and executive functioning rather than ignoring them. What Real Recovery From Chronic Binge Eating Disorder Looks Like Mainstream recovery messaging often centers perfection and dramatic transformation. Real recovery from chronic binge eating disorder is usually quieter and more gradual. It begins with safety rather than control. It focuses on consistent nourishment, nervous system regulation, and shame reduction. This episode outlines how sustainable binge eating recovery involves stabilizing food intake, reducing restriction, expanding coping strategies, and building self-compassion. Progress is measured not by perfection, but by increased flexibility, dignity, and safety in the body.

If you love your partner but your sexual intimacy is gone… you're not hopeless. You're normal. Let's talk about sex, intimacy, and the real skills that rebuild sexual connection in long-term love. Because emotional intimacy doesn't automatically create desire,  and you can deepen intimacy on purpose. If you've ever wondered, “Why don't I want sex anymore?” or felt the quiet ache of a lack of intimacy in marriage, you're not alone. Many couples care deeply about each other. They function well as teammates. And yet when it comes to intimacy in marriage, something feels distant or flat. Maybe you're in a marriage without intimacy and wondering how to improve sex life without forcing it. Maybe you're trying to figure out how to increase sexual desire, especially if your drive has faded. Or maybe you're the partner feeling rejected and unsure how to reconnect. The truth is that improving intimacy in marriage isn't about waiting for spontaneous chemistry to return. Sexual desire shifts in long-term relationships. Stress, exhaustion, resentment, hormonal changes, and the mental load of adult life all impact connection. When there is no intimacy in marriage, it often reflects burnout and disconnection,  not incompatibility. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Nicole McNichols, an internationally renowned human sexuality professor, author, and speaker whose course The Diversity of Human Sexuality is the most popular in the history of the University of Washington, enrolling over 4,000 students annually. Together, we unpack how to improve sexual intimacy using research-backed tools. We talk about how pleasure fuels desire, how to increase sexual desire in female partners and anyone experiencing low drive, and why improving intimacy in marriage requires intention, not magic. You'll learn how to improve sex life through small shifts in novelty, playfulness, and communication that make connection feel natural again. We also address resentment. If emotional safety has eroded over time, rebuilding sexual intimacy may need to start with repairing the friendship first. When couples strengthen communication and physical intimacy together, relationships often begin to feel alive again. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Why Sexual Intimacy Fades in Long-Term Relationships 03:34 How to Improve Sexual Intimacy With a Growth Mindset 08:52 Emotional Intimacy vs. Sexual Desire in Marriage 11:14 How Pleasure Increases Sexual Desire 18:17 How to Increase Sexual Desire (Responsive Desire Explained) 20:20 How to Improve Sex Life by Planning Intimacy 31:08 Rebuilding Attraction and Intimacy in Marriage 43:06 When Lack of Intimacy in Marriage Is About Resentment Rebuilding sexual connection can feel vulnerable. And sometimes the most powerful next step isn't trying harder,  it's getting support. If you'd like help improving intimacy in marriage or learning how to increase sexual desire in ways that feel safe and sustainable, you can schedule a free consultation with me or a member of my team. It's a private, secure space where you can share what's been happening and what you hope will feel different. You'll answer three quick questions so we can match you with the right expert.

Nervous system leadership becomes essential when pressure and stress quietly shape team culture. If you feel responsible for the emotional tone of every room, this isn't a leadership flaw. It may be identity-level misalignment, not lack of strength.Most leaders try to fix culture with strategy.But culture is shaped long before strategy is spoken.In this episode, we explore nervous system leadership — not as theory, but as lived practice. If you've ever felt exhausted from carrying the emotional climate of your team, or confused about why tension returns even when results are strong, this conversation will meet you.This episode reinforces a simple truth:You cannot control every nervous system in the room.But you absolutely influence the tone that enters it.This is not about becoming softer.It is about becoming steadier.And steadiness is not passive. It is regulated intensity. Controlled momentum. Grounded authority.In Season 4, we are walking through the Identity-Level Recalibration pathway — moving from recognition, to release, to reclamation, and now to reinforcement. Reinforcement is where awareness becomes pattern. Where hope becomes embodied leadership.In this conversation, we explore:• Why burnout in leadership often stems from over-transmitting urgency• How pressure culture forms through shared stress responses• The difference between implied urgency and stated standards• Why many high-capacity humans became the “thermostat” long before they became leaders• How one embodied pause before entering a room can begin reshaping cultureIdentity-Level Recalibration is not another productivity tactic.It is not performance optimization.It is not a communication hack.If you've ever wondered:Why does my team mirror my stress?Why does culture feel tense even when goals are clear?Why am I tired of being the strongest nervous system in every room?You're not broken.You may simply be reinforcing patterns you learned long before you were leading.Reinforcement is hopeful because culture is responsive. Not instant. But responsive. Consistency builds trust. Steadiness compounds.Today's Micro Recalibration:Before your next interaction, pause and ask, “Am I about to transmit urgency — or steadiness?” Take one full breath. Name expectations clearly. Replace implied pressure with calm clarity.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration → Schedule a conversation with Julie to see if The Recalibration is a fit for you → Learn about The Recalibration Cohort→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Inflation, record market highs, early retirement dreams, and complex estate questions—retirement planning doesn't happen in isolation. In this episode of the Retire Sooner Podcast, Wes Moss and Christa DiBiase translate timely headlines and listener scenarios into thoughtful, long-term financial planning considerations. • Assess how rising grocery and beef prices reflect inflation and evaluate ways to think about purchasing power over time. • Review stock market all-time highs alongside historical correction patterns to frame risk within a diversified allocation. • Examine what retiring in your 40s may require, including savings rates, spending assumptions, and trade-offs. • Structure financial support for younger family members through gifting strategies, investment vehicles, and clear boundaries. • Stress-test retirement projections—including tools like Wealthfront's PATH—by applying more conservative inputs. • Balance equity exposure with “dry powder” assets in the context of withdrawal rates and long-term income needs. • Coordinate irregular or business-owner income by aligning tax planning, liquidity, and disciplined investment decisions. • Consider when a commercial trustee may be appropriate for long-term estate and legacy planning goals. Retirement clarity comes from steady evaluation and informed decisions—not short-term noise.

Stress does funny things to us. It can make us sleepy, irritable, drive us to drink or use other intoxicants. And the number it can play on our cardiovascular system, by hijacking our pulse and blood pressure can make an ordinary day seem impossible.

Are you as fascinated as I am with the intersection of faith and influence(rs)? In this episode of Culture Changers, I sit down with debut novelist Alli Hoff Kosik, author of the buzzworthy Too Blessed to Stress, for a way deeper conversation that I thought. We are talking Christian megachurches, influencer culture, and the razor-thin line between faith and performance. If you're fascinated (or horrified) by fundamentalist Christianity, religious trauma, sought-after belonging, social media collectives, or how women shape culture from the back pew and the algorithm, let me tell you, this episode is for you. We dig into Allie's process researching evangelical culture, what it's like growing up on the religious outside, and how she crafted four female protagonists who are as complex, messy, and relatable as your own group chat. Plus, we get real about performative faith, power dynamics for women in church, and why changing your mind in public can cost you everything. Whether you're a church kid, a proud skeptic, or just obsessed with pop culture, this is a smart, bold, and oddly comforting conversation about spirituality, social identity, and what true community really looks like. You'll walk away with big questions, fresh empathy, and a new favorite novel to bring to your book club. We talk about: The search for authentic belonging and community Navigating performative faith versus genuine spirituality Social media's impact on religious identity Female ambition and empowerment within church culture Secrets, public personas, and the influencer economy Empathy for differing worldviews and experiences The complexities of institutional religion today Timestamps: 00:00 Too Blessed to Stress 05:42 TLC, Religion, and Influence 08:49 Religious Celebrations and Longing 13:34 Secrets, Faith, and Influencer Struggles 16:52 Trishy: Faith, Friendship, Content 19:37 Faith, Scandal, and Self-Discovery 21:51 Researching Influencers and Communities 26:23 Culture, Media, and Human Context 33:01 The Cost of Public Beliefs 37:41 Belonging, Perception, and Empowerment 43:03 Rethinking Community and Belonging —--------------------------------------------------------- To Connect With Alli: Get Alli's Book: https://allihoffkosik.com/too-blessed-to-stress Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allihoffkosik Website: https://allihoffkosik.com/ To Connect With Me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allison__hare LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonhare/ Website: https://allisonhare.com Book a free podcast clarity call with Allison:  https://allisonhare.com/freecall Be sure to rate, review, and follow this podcast on your player and also, connect with me IRL for more goodness and life-changing stuff.Schedule a FREE podcast clarity call with me - Your future audience is out there.

In this episode, we slow that moment down and explain why loss-of-control eating is a predictable state shift that shows up more often under stress and restriction. You'll learn what's happening in your brain and body—and how to interrupt the spiral without needing perfection.What we coverWhat “loss of control” really means (it's about the internal experience, not just quantity)The 4 forces that create the “brakes gone” feeling:Food as relief: your brain predicts food will helpScarcity thinking: “I shouldn't / I can't / I'll make up for it later”Body vulnerability: under-fueling, fatigue, stress, depletionThe switch-flip thought: “I blew it / might as well”How stress-amplifying thoughts (“I don't have enough time,” “this is too much”) fan the flamesA core strategy for relief: Turn to people, not food (connection lowers pressure)Tools you can try this weekStabilize your baseline: consistent, adequate meals earlier in the day (especially if nights are hard)Plate + Pause (for risk moments): eat your first portion normally, then pause 30–90 seconds and ask, “What do I need right now?”Remember: every binge has ended—you can influence when it ends next time. Any interruption counts.Coming nextWe'll zoom out to how these patterns form over time—and where the cycle actually starts.Work with me: Coaching details are in the show notes.
