In this episode of Vineyard Underground, Fritz talks with Dr. Mark Krasnow of Thoughtful Viticulture about how to tell real vine stress from false alarms in the vineyard. Mark explains why grapevines are often tougher than they look and breaks stress into three main categories: water, heat, and wind. He and Fritz highlight common misreads and show how these assumptions lead to overwatering, shallow roots, excess vigor, and higher disease risk. The conversation focuses on using data instead of guesswork, pairing tools such as pressure bombs, porometers, and soil moisture probes so growers can set meaningful irrigation thresholds. Mark also shares why he prefers early-season water stress for red varieties to influence berry size and phenolics, while keeping vines better supplied after veraison. They compare stress responses in young versus mature vines and touch on Mark's work with powdery mildew spore monitoring, which suggests many early-season sprays may be unnecessary. In this episode, you will hear: Why grapevines are often more resilient than growers assume How overwatering can create shallow roots, excess vigor, and more disease risk The difference between perceived water stress and measured stress How to pair soil moisture probes with pressure bomb readings to set a real "red line" for irrigation Why early-season water stress can improve red wine quality when managed correctly How vine age affects stress tolerance and root development Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

"When people with PTSD [post-traumatic stress disorder] get quite avoidant—and that can be expressed in so many different ways—the implications can be really profound. I think an important invitation to oncologists and oncology nurses and primary care providers who care for people battling cancer is let's explore what's underneath these avoidant behaviors. Is it a very practical thing? Or is it that underneath this avoidant behavior is really profound fear?" James C. Jackson, PsyD, research professor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, TCTCN™, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about addressing medical trauma in oncology.

They may not avoid the annual evaluation that is so hugely consequential—they might not avoid that. But they may well avoid a routine visit for a checkup to their oncologist. They very well may avoid a visit with a psychologist who is wanting them to talk about hard things. They may avoid visiting a friend in the hospital because it reminds them of really upsetting things. So, this issue of adherence and compliance is a really big problem." TS 3:19 "Screening tools for things like PTSD can be very useful. They're quite practical, and they're appropriate to use. I really like something called the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist. ... Using it is going to be very straightforward. You're going to want to map it onto a 30-day window, and you're going to employ it with patients. It's a 20-item self-report. It assesses 20 DSM-5 symptoms of PTSD. It's not diagnostic, but if people score in this range of 30, 31, 33, we typically are going to believe that that is very suggestive of significant PTSD." TS 9:17 "One of the things we should be doing all the time is modeling and attempting to normalize this idea of being open about mental health difficulties. When I say modeling, this is a complicated issue. ... I'm very open talking about my own battles with mental health. And in some ways, that invites my patients to do the same. I don't recommend necessarily that a nurse says, 'Oh, by the way, I have PTSD. I'm going to tell you about mine. I want you to tell me about yours.' That's a boundary issue. But I think it does behoove us as clinicians to create a culture as much as we're able, where we can talk about mental health difficulties in a matter-of-fact way, acknowledging that mental health is health. These tools, to me, go a long way in that direction." TS 13:41 "The survivorship process is ongoing. I think a nurse can assist a patient in so many ways longitudinally over time. ... One of those ways is to continue checking on mental health outcomes in patients. Continuing to check on mental health outcomes, continuing to explore them, and continuing to invite patients to talk about things that other people might not be asking about. It's easy for family members to assume, 'Hey, you know, you're cancer free now. You look fine, so you must be fine.' It's very possible that the patients we're talking about are not fine. They're far from fine. For that oncology nurse at a follow-up clinic or in an oncology setting to talk about this, continuing to affirm that it would be okay for patients to struggle, continuing to put this issue on a front burner—I think that's really important." TS 21:17 "I'm aware of nurse-led support groups where nurses can talk very freely about their own challenges, in a safe space. ... Working to build cultures in the context of the intensive care unit, let's say, where we have a lot of patients with cancer that prioritize well-being nurse driven programs. ... The bottom line is if there is a warning light that is blinking, nurses need to attend to that. And in attending to it, they're going to be more present for their patient. They're going to be better able to support their patient. They're going to be better able to support each other. And I think often, in the culture of nursing and psychology, too, people just put their head down, their shoulder down, and they just plow through in ways that are really counter to their mental health." TS 29:56 "The truth is medical trauma can be well-managed. It's not simple. It's not always intuitive. There are all sorts of caveats with regard to this, but the truth is people with medical trauma can live really rich and meaningful lives. ... So, the default setting, I think, should be not one of pessimism. It should be that people with medical trauma can and do get better. If you are a patient with medical trauma and you are in my purview, until proven differently, I'm going to assume that you can get better too." TS 36:28
What if your greatest leadership advantage isn't your IQ, technical expertise, or business strategy—but your ability to understand your emotions? Morgane Borzée, Founder of Equanima joins the program to explore how emotional intelligence can transform the way leaders communicate, make decisions, and build stronger organizations. Drawing from her personal journey with anxiety and her passion for making psychoeducation more accessible, Morgane shares how she turned personal challenges into a global mission to help leaders move beyond autopilot and respond with greater awareness and intention. Highlights include: Why emotions are valuable data—not weaknesses—and how understanding the needs behind our emotions can unlock healthier relationships, better communication, and more effective leadership. Why leaders should build a relationship with their stress responses instead of trying to eliminate them. The five stress responses—fight, flight, freeze, submit, and attach—and how they shape behavior. The importance of distinguishing emotions from interpretations to reduce conflict. How our body can provide the first clues to our emotional state. How AI is reshaping not only work but also our sense of value and identity. Creating a shared language around emotional intelligence fosters trust, psychological safety, and high-performing teams. This is a fantastic conversation to support any CEO, manager, entrepreneur, coach, or therapist, looking for practical strategies to strengthen emotional awareness, improve communication, and create cultures where both people and performance thrive.

In this conversation, Ari Whitten and I go straight to the cellular level to answer a question most of cardiology never asks: where does your energy actually come from, and what happens to your heart when it runs low? Ari walks through the work of Dr. Robert Naviaux and the ‘cell danger response,' the idea that your mitochondria are constantly reading the environment and deciding whether to make energy or switch into defense mode. Stressors like toxins, junk food, poor sleep, and chronic psychological stress push them toward defense, and that shift shows up as fatigue, oxidative stress, and inflammation, the same drivers I see underneath so much heart disease.From there, we get practical. Ari breaks down why how you breathe matters as much as how much you move, how a simple breath-hold test reflects your body's oxygen delivery, and why 20 to 30 minutes of daily movement may be one of the most powerful things you can do for your heart. It all comes back to what I teach every day: Eat Well, Live Well, Think Well. Give your cells what they were designed for, and your energy and your heart tend to follow.- - - - -About the Guest:Ari Whitten, MS, is the founder of The Energy Blueprint and one of the most respected evidence-based voices on fatigue, energy, and mitochondrial health. He holds a Master of Science in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine, a bachelor's in Kinesiology, and certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a Corrective Exercise Specialist and Performance Enhancement Specialist.After losing nearly a year of his own life to severe chronic fatigue in his twenties, Ari devoted his career to understanding how cellular energy is built and broken.

Ever feel like you're “doing all the right things” for your hormones… but your body still isn't cooperating?In this episode, we unpack six major environmental factors that can quietly interfere with fertility, hormone balance, ovulation, egg quality, and overall reproductive health — many of which are completely overlooked in conventional conversations around conception.This episode is especially important if you're over 35, navigating perimenopause, trying to conceive naturally, or simply wanting to create the healthiest possible foundation for future fertility.This is one of those episodes that makes you look at your environment very differently — because fertility and hormones are often a reflection of the signals your body receives every single day.THE BABY BLUEPRINT WORKSHOP - JULY 30THRegister for the workshop here.FIND NAT BELOW:Website - https://nataliekdouglas.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/natalie.k.douglasBook a Free Assessment Call - https://NatalieKDouglas.as.me/?appointmentType=50255874EndoNourish - Endometriosis and Adenomyosis Guide - https://nataliekdouglas.com/endonourish-holistic-endometriosis-adenomyoisis-care-guide/SacredSeeds - Preconception Care Guidehttps://nataliekdouglas.com/preconception-care-guide/PCOS Wellness Guidehttps://nataliekdouglas.com/pcos-holistic-guide/Thyroid Rescue - Self guided programhttps://nataliekdouglas.com/thyroid-rescue/Coming Off The Pill/IUD Holistic Guidehttps://nataliekdouglas.com/coming-off-the-pill-mini-course/PMS/PMDD Natural Solutons Masterclass https://nataliekdouglas.com/pms-pmdd-natural-solutions-masterclass/Restore and Nourish Gut Reset - https://nataliekdouglas.com/restore-nourish-gut-reset/Perimenopause Masterclass -https://nataliekdouglas.com/perimenopause-masterclass-holistic-toolkit/Become a one-to-one clienthttps://nataliekdouglas.com/1-1-naturopathic-nutrition-consultations/FIND AMIE BELOW:Book a Free Assessment Call: https://p.bttr.to/3yBdmu3 Book Yourself In: https://l.bttr.to/ZDxWOWebsite - https://whatthenaturopathsaid.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thatnaturopathJoin the mailing list - https://elysium-clinic-of-natural-medicine.ck.page/69663ce14a PS: yes we are practitioners, but we're not YOUR practitioners - it should go without saying but our episodes are not medical advice.
In this episode, Dr. Andy Galpin joins Slappin' Glass for a practical, high-level conversation on basketball performance, recovery, strength training, sleep, travel, and pregame preparation.Galpin breaks down why improving movement is not just about stretching, mobility work, or lifting weights, but about understanding the physical qualities that allow athletes to move with more range, force, control, and efficiency. The conversation moves from the history of strength training in sport to modern tools for evaluating movement, asymmetries, muscle development, and return-to-play readiness.A major theme of the episode is recovery. Galpin makes a strong case that sleep is still the most powerful performance tool available to coaches and athletes, especially in-season. He discusses the impact of early practices, late-night games, post-practice downregulation, hydration, fueling, protein synthesis, and how coaches can better organize the schedule before fatigue becomes a problem.During “Start, Sub, or Sit,” the conversation turns to silent stressors inside a basketball program, including travel, walkthroughs, film, scout prep, pregame warmups, physical contact, and how to prepare players to actually feel ready when the ball goes up. What You'll Learn Why strength training can improve movement, range of motion, and athletic expression when it is designed correctly. How coaches should think about recovery beyond soreness, including sleep, hydration, refueling, and rebuilding tissue. Why early-morning practices may be costing teams more than they realize. How post-practice and postgame downregulation can help athletes transition toward better sleep. Why travel is one of the biggest hidden stressors on player performance. How to proactively adjust practice loads around dense parts of the schedule. What coaches should consider with bus rides, compression gear, movement breaks, and arrival timing. How to structure pregame warmups around skill feel, physical readiness, movement prep, and contact. Why players need some level of game-like physicality before tip-off, especially bigs and contact-heavy roles. How physiology, breathing, CO2 tolerance, and arousal levels connect to focus, decision-making, and emotional regulation.To join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 70 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

Avoiding stress at all costs may actually be making you less resilient.In this episode, Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist reframes stress as one of the body's most overlooked tools for longevity. The right kind of challenge can activate repair, strengthen resilience, improve metabolic health, and help the body adapt in ways that support healthier aging over time. Rather than trying to eliminate stress completely, she explains how to use it more intelligently.At the center of the conversation are five key stressors the body appears designed to benefit from when they're used well: plant phytochemicals, exercise, heat and cold exposure, time-restricted eating, and purpose-driven psychological stress. Sharon also explains why recovery matters and why too little stress can be just as harmful as too much, and how mindset changes the biology of the stress response.A study of 29,000 people found that believing stress is harmful raised the risk of dying by 43%, while viewing it as not harmful lowered that risk by 17%.

Most people think stress comes from big problems. Taoism suggests something different. In this free Living the Tao Short (2-23), Master Mikel Steenrod explores how sudden changes—whether they seem good or bad—place demands on the body and mind. Using weather as a starting point, he explains why rapid shifts can drain our reserves, disrupt our balance, and gradually affect both quality of life and longevity. A beautiful warm day in the middle of winter may feel wonderful, but your body still has to adapt. The same principle applies to life itself. Stressors often arrive in clusters, and while any one challenge might be manageable, repeated shocks can accumulate over time. Discover why Taoists pay attention to mismatches, adaptation, recovery, and the hidden costs of rapid change—and what you can do to restore yourself when life moves too fast.

In this episode, Dr. Eric interviews acupuncturist, author, and educator Robin Ray Green about the often-overlooked environmental stressors that can silently interfere with thyroid health, immune function, energy, and healing. Drawing from her own personal journey with mold illness, Robin explains how invisible stressors like mold, poor water quality, EMFs, and air pollution can overwhelm the body—even when someone is following a clean diet and healthy lifestyle.Robin shares how chronic mold exposure dramatically impacted her health, leading to debilitating fatigue, brain fog, and burnout despite doing everything “right.” This experience led her to explore the deeper root causes of chronic illness and uncover how environmental toxins, poor sleep environments, electronic pollution, and hidden emotional stressors can keep the body stuck in a constant state of stress and inflammation.The conversation also explores practical strategies for reducing toxic burden, improving sleep quality, choosing better water filtration systems, minimizing EMF exposure, and supporting the body's natural healing processes.

The spaces we spend time in either stress or calm us. Or maybe they feel fully neutral. Our day-to-day setpoint in the environment where we live our lives sets us up for conflict prevention and resolution “readiness”. We can easily overlook the environment we are in precisely because we live in it. Taking a moment to step back and really think about the spaces we inhabit can help reduce stress and encourage a sense of calm. When we do that, we are helping ourselves to be better equipped to avoid unnecessary conflicts and to more easily handle those that appear. Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

Your child's “stress cup” has been filling drop by drop.Small stressors stack up (even ones you don't notice)The brain keeps score, even when your child seems “fine”The final trigger is just the last dropReal-Life Example: A parent thought bedtime was the issue—until we looked back and saw a full day of cognitive, social, and emotional strain. Bedtime wasn't the problem; it was the overflow.What are hidden stressors that fill my child's stress cup?Many of the biggest stressors are invisible to parents—but very real to the nervous system.Here's what may be quietly filling your child's cup:Cognitive load: Following directions, focusing, switching tasksSensory overload: Noise, lights, smells, chaotic environmentsEmotional suppression: Holding in feelings all daySocial stress: Navigating friendships, rejection, fitting inTransitions: Constant shifting from one task to anotherEven “typical” kids are overwhelmed. Today's demands are high, and their brains are still developing.Bottom line: It's not bad behavior—it's a dysregulated brain.Want to stay calm when your child pushes every button?Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP and get the FREE Regulation Rescue Kit—your step-by-step guide to stop oppositional behaviors without yelling or giving in.Go to www.drroseann.com/newsletter and grab your kit today.Why does my child seem fine at school but fall apart at home?Because school is where they're holding it together.After-school restraint collapse is real.Your child spends hours masking, coping, and suppressingThat takes real nervous system energyWhen they get home, they finally feel safe enough to release itReal-Life Example: A child who “behaves perfectly” at school may scream, cry, or refuse simple tasks at home. That's not manipulation—it's nervous system exhaustion.Behavior is communication. Your child is showing you they've hit their limit.How do transitions and pressure impact my child's behavior?Kids move through dozens of transitions daily—and each one requires mental effort.“Stop this, start that”“Line up, pack up, switch tasks”Constant gear-shifting in the brainAdd to that:Academic pressureSocial expectationsInternal fear of getting things wrongThat pressure builds quietly. Even if no one says it out loud, kids feel it.And when the brain runs out of capacity? That's when you see the meltdown.How can I help empty my child's stress cup before it overflows?Let's calm the brain first—because that's where change begins.Start here:Reduce load where possible (less pressure, more support)Build in regulation breaks throughout the dayCreate safe spaces for emotional releaseNotice patterns, not just reactions

In today's episode, we dig into some of the most common (and frustrating) barriers people face in their health and fitness journey: the idea of balance. We share why “balance” is often an unrealistic expectation - and how shifting toward intentional harmony can completely change the game. We talk through real-life scenarios, from busy work seasons to motherhood chaos, and how to stay consistent without falling into the all-or-nothing trap.We also unpack emotional eating, food relationships, and hunger. From understanding the difference between physical and emotional hunger to building simple systems around meals, sleep, and stress, this episode is packed with practical strategies you can actually use. If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or like you're “doing it wrong,” this conversation will help you zoom out, simplify, and move forward.“If hunger isn't the problem, food isn't the solution.”- Amy Rudolph“Balance doesn't exist - but harmony is something you build, intentionally.”- Iris DeadliftsThis week on Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck:Why “balance” is vague, unrealistic, and often unhelpfulThe concept of harmony and how to apply it to real lifeHow to stay consistent during busy or stressful seasonsEmotional eating vs. true hunger - and how to respond differentlyThe power of the pause (instead of reacting on autopilot)Why restriction leads to overeating - and how to break the cycleHow meal timing, protein, and fiber help regulate hungerThe underrated impact of sleep and stress on cravings and appetiteConnect with Us:Iris Deadlifts on InstagramAmy Rudolph on InstagramWork with us at Beth Feraco FitnessTrigger Foods / Candy Challenge EpisodeWhat A Healthy Relationship with Food Looks Like EpisodeThanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck, where we challenge the common understanding of what it means and what it takes to be fit and healthy!

In part two of this stress series, Amanda walks you through a practical, honest assessment of your stress by examining both sides of the see-saw—your stressors and your supporters. She breaks stressors into baseline (chronic) and daily (variable) inputs, helping you identify where your load is actually coming from. This episode emphasizes that real change starts with awareness, and gives you a framework to understand whether your reactions are coming from accumulated stress (overflow) or deeper unresolved patterns (triggers). 3 Takeaways: Your stress bucket is filled by both baseline (ongoing) and daily (fluctuating) stressors, and understanding the difference helps you identify where your leverage for change is. An honest assessment of your supporters—what's actually present, not what “should” be—reveals the gap that needs to be addressed for your nervous system to feel more supported. Big reactions to small things are either triggers (linked to past experiences) or overflow (a full bucket), and knowing which is which helps guide whether you need deeper healing work or better stress management.CLICK HERE for the full show notes, resources, and 3 tangible takeaways!—Looking for more personalized support? 1:1 Coaching (RESTORE): Learn more or book a free discovery call (HSA/FSA eligible & includes comprehensive bloodwork) Regulated Living Membership: A mental health membership and nervous system healing space (sliding scale pricing available).

Grab your ADHD Thrive Decoder Kit here: http://adhdthriveinstitute.com/123 You know what I wish someone had told me years ago when my son was diagnosed with ADHD? That ADHD isn't one neat little story. ADHD isn't one problem. It's often driven by five biological stressors stacked inside the same child. And depending on the day, a different stressor shouts loudest. In this powerful solo episode, Dana Kay reframes ADHD in a way that instantly relieves shame and confusion for parents. If you've ever felt like you're parenting a different child by 4 p.m. than you were at 8 a.m., this episode explains why. Dana walks listeners through the five biological stressors inside the ADHD Thrive framework: blood sugar dysregulation, gut-brain dysfunction, food reactions, poor detox pathways, and the nutrient deficiencies. Instead of asking, "Why are they doing this?" she teaches parents to ask a better question: "Which layer is loud today?" If your child's symptoms fluctuate, if some days feel manageable and others feel impossible, this episode will help you understand the biology underneath the behavior.

Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. After 30 years of law enforcement, he thought he had retired unscathed. A veteran of the Suffolk County Police Department and the Atlanta Police Department, he spent decades responding to emergencies, witnessing trauma, and putting his life on the line. Yet even after leaving the force, the weight of his experiences lingered. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Mike Morgan is our guest. “I thought I was done with all the trauma,” Mike says. “I thought I got out unscathed. But it all started catching up with me after retirement, especially that call about the 2-year-old child who drowned.” The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. A Life-Altering Call The call that shook Mike the most involved a young child who had drowned. He was able to save the child, but the emotional impact stayed with him. As he explains, “Saving that child was one of the most rewarding things I've done, but it also brought back all the other moments in my career that I hadn't fully processed.” Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Drowning remains a leading risk for children under 5. According to recent studies: 87% of drowning fatalities occur in home pools or hot tubs, often when children sneak outside unattended. Highest risk group: Children aged 1–4, with backyard pools as the primary location for fatal drownings. Silent danger: Drowning is fast and silent, rarely involving splashing or screaming. Mike emphasizes, “Swimming pools may look safe, but kids can slip away in seconds. Even the most attentive parent can't always see it happen.” The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) studied drownings among children age 4 and under in Arizona, California, and Florida, where pools are common. It found nearly 70% of children were not expected to be in the water, and 46% were last seen inside the house. Essential safety measures include four-sided fencing, pool alarms, locked doors, and constant adult supervision. Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. Recognizing PTSD Even after retirement, Mike realized he was struggling with symptoms of PTSD. “I was listening to a podcast one day and thought, ‘This is me,'” he says. “I was having everything the experts describe, but I hadn't acknowledged it yet.” Police officers face a particularly high risk of PTSD due to frequent exposure to traumatic events. Studies estimate prevalence rates up to 20%, roughly double that of the general population. Symptoms often stem from cumulative stress, fatal accidents, officer-involved shootings, and repeated exposure to violence, leading to flashbacks, insomnia, and even suicidal thoughts. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. As Mike explains, “It's not always one single traumatic event. It's the buildup over time, the constant stress, the repeated exposure to tragedy. That's what hits you when you retire and finally have time to think.” Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. Key facts from research: Police Officers experience an average of 3.5 traumatic incidents every six months. One in seven officers worldwide suffers from PTSD or depression, with 15–18% meeting diagnostic criteria. Stressors include violent incidents, exposure to death, and organizational pressures. Symptoms and Behavioral Impacts PTSD can affect every aspect of life: Physical: Fatigue, insomnia, chest pain, nausea Emotional & Behavioral: Anxiety, withdrawal, paranoia, rage, increased substance use Job Impact: Poor performance, missed work, strained family relationships “PTSD isn't just a badge issue,” Mike says. “It follows you home. It affects your health, your family, and your ability to enjoy life after the force.” Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Recovery and Support Mike credits therapy, medicine, peer support, and community for helping him recover. Evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Prolonged Exposure Therapy are highly effective. Departments that promote open discussions and mental health support can reduce the stigma and help officers seek treatment. Now living in Florida He shares his journey on The Resilient Warrior podcast and the book he wrote titled The Resilient Warrior. “The podcast is my way of giving back and showing other officers and anyone struggling with trauma, that recovery is possible,” he says.

Dr. John Bergman, a renowned chiropractor with a focus on neurology, sheds light on the deficiencies of the current "sick care system," advocating for a transformative outlook on healthcare that honors the body's natural capacity for healing. The episode kicks off with a captivating discussion on chronic illness statistics, forcing listeners to rethink traditional medical paradigms. Dr. Bergman's candid perspectives on alternative medicine, backed by years of practice and academic enrichment, foster a dynamic narrative throughout the episode.Delving into preventative health measures and the philosophy of mind-body synergy, Dr. Bergman underscores his passion for overturning conventional medical approaches. Keywords like "self-healing," "regeneration," and "alternative healthcare" dominate the conversation as he elaborates on the three stressor components—physical, chemical, and emotional—and their impact on health. The discussion takes intriguing turns into the realms of energy frequency, the power of thought, and quantum physics, offering listeners a deep dive into innovative concepts. This episode serves as a profound call to action for individuals seeking to empower themselves through holistic wellness.Key Takeaways:Revolutionizing Health Perception: Dr. Bergman challenges the traditional healthcare system, emphasizing a need to view the body as inherently self-healing and self-regulating.Root Cause of Disease: The conversation reveals insights into how diseases are adaptations to stressors—physical, chemical, and emotional—rather than standalone entities.Effective Health Strategies: Regular joint movement, natural diet conforming to ancestral habits, and stress management through prayer and meditation are advocated as core health strategies.Quantum and Energy Paradigms: Dr. Bergman discusses the scientific basis for energy's role in health, including the potential for thought to influence physiological outcomes.Cultural and Global Health Insights: With clinics worldwide, Dr. Bergman shares comparative insights on health perceptions and practices across different cultures.Notable Quotes:"Disease doesn't exist, it's really the body adapting.""If you look at America, we are the sickest industrialized nation in the world.""When you learn to tap into energy, that's when you can bypass gravity.""The body can regenerate itself. Oh, that's the message, baby.""Einstein said you can look at everything as if there's no magic or if everything's magic."Connect with Dr. John Bergman:WebsiteYoutubeInstagramConnect with Rudy Mawer:LinkedInInstagramFacebookTwitter
Is all stress bad?For decades, medicine has treated stress as something purely harmful. But what if the right kind of stress is exactly what builds resilience, activates longevity genes, and strengthens mitochondrial health?In this episode, Dr. Bergquist joins us to unpack the science behind “good stress” — the mild to moderate stressors that activate cellular repair, stimulate autophagy, improve metabolic efficiency, and build psychological resilience.We explore how modern comfort may be driving chronic disease, why diversity in exercise and nutrition matters, and how time-restricted eating, phytochemicals, cognitive challenges, and movement work together to activate the body's innate repair systems.This conversation reframes stress from something to eliminate to something to apply strategically.If you work with patients focused on longevity, metabolic health, or prevention, this episode offers a practical framework rooted in molecular biology.
Yvonne Rainbow Teplitsky is the founder of Artsy Goddess Studio, where she actively carries out her role in helping others and the planet heal. Rainbow is passionate about art, as seen in the upcycled clothing she creates from second-hand materials, as well as the visual arts she creates, such as murals, paintings, and tapestries. She also helps women transform through voice-empowering workshops, and she co-facilitates couples retreats and workshops with me. Stress can negatively affects both partners' well-being and relationships, often leading to increased arguments, decreased intimacy, and a general sense of disconnection. The strain of dealing with stress often affects communication, making it difficult for partners to understand each other's needs and feelings. However, it can also bring a couple together, as they demonstrate their connection and positive attunement. In this episode, my wife Rainbow and I have a conversation of a recent stressful event in our lives and how we navigated it.

We dig into the foundations of hormone health, including blood sugar balance, minerals, digestion, protein, fiber, and why “doing all the right things” doesn't work if the body is stuck in survival mode.Leah also shares her personal health journey and practical, realistic steps to reduce endocrine disruptors in daily life, support fertility naturally, and create a healthier internal environment for conception.If fertility or hormone health has felt confusing, frustrating, or out of reach, this episode offers clarity, perspective, and actionable guidance!Want more from Leah?Balancing Hormones Naturally PodcastYouTubeleahbrueggemann.com00:56 Guest Introduction: Leah Brueggeman01:23 The Impact of Environment on Hormones03:29 Rising Infertility Rates and Environmental Factors06:40 Increasing Resilience and Personal Health Journey15:19 Understanding Hormonal Imbalances17:49 Symptoms and Signs of Hormonal Imbalances18:50 Men's Health and Fertility22:59 Chronic Exposures and Long-term Effects26:40 Understanding Your Nervous System Ladder27:05 Calming Techniques for Fight or Flight27:23 Addressing Nervous System Shutdown27:43 The Importance of Matching Your Regulation Techniques28:27 Mineral Support for Adrenals and Thyroid28:51 Digestive Health and Nutrient Absorption29:15 Potassium-Rich Foods for Stress Management29:57 The Role of Sodium and Vitamin C in Adrenal Health30:52 Foundational Patterns for Health31:40 The Gradual Decline of Health and Energy33:12 Quick Wins for Health Improvement33:39 The Importance of Blood Sugar Balance39:57 Debunking Hormone Myths42:06 Advice for the Fertility Journey45:16 Considerations Before IVF49:03 The Power of a Healing Environment49:54 Where to Find More Information50:33 Final Thoughts and EncouragementIG: @MoldFindersNot sure the best way to get started?

Thyroid health is often linked to autoimmune conditions. Stressors can be physical, chemical, or emotional and impact health. Hormone optimization is crucial for overall well-being. Insulin resistance is a major factor in many chronic diseases. Environmental toxins can disrupt hormonal balance. Cholesterol is essential for hormone production and overall health. Gut health plays a significant role in immune function and autoimmunity. Regular testing and monitoring are vital for hormonal health. A holistic approach to health considers all aspects of a person's life.

Today I was on a strategy call with an injured, but recovering runner who is trying to figure out how to organize his workouts to get strong quickly, without re-injuring his stress fracture. He was headed in the right direction, but was making a critical mistake when trying to do more with split workouts. It's not about splitting workouts. It's all about the stressors that are applied to the stress out bone. But this also applies to other overtrain injuries like Achilles tendinitis, perennial, tendinitis, or plantar plate sprains. If you understand, this basic principle, you will definitely get back to running a whole lot faster! Today on the Doc On The Run podcast, why any runner with any overtraining injury should focus on making sure there are no big stressors on the same structures.

What does it mean to build wealth when the world hasn't always made space for your identity? That's the question at the heart of today's conversation, and the driving force behind a powerful new book reshaping how LGBTQ+ people think about money, belonging, and the future. On this episode of So Money, I'm joined by Nick Wolny, a longtime personal finance journalist, columnist for OUT Magazine, and now the author of Money Proud: The Queer Guide to Generate Wealth, Slay Debt, and Build Good Habits to Secure Your FutureNick brings a candid, deeply human lens to the financial lives of queer people, from the emotional and cultural realities that shape money choices to the systems and habits that help rebuild stability, confidence, and long-term security. His own story, which he describes not as self-help but as a kind of spiritual reckoning, is woven throughout the book and sets the stage for an honest, energetic, and eye-opening conversation.

Send us a textThe first voice on a 911 call carries a lot more than a headset. In this candid, unfiltered conversation with veteran dispatcher and recovery coach Lisa Trusas, we pull back the curtain on what really happens at the console: juggling multiple emergencies at once, coaching panicked parents through CPR, catching danger in a whisper, and making judgment calls with lives on the line. Lisa's story reframes dispatch as the heart of public safety—where police, fire, and EMS meet—and where the weight of uncertainty often lingers after the line goes dead.We dig into the human cost of the work and the culture that shapes it. Lisa lays out the “double stigma” dispatchers face—expected to be as tough as sworn personnel while being dismissed as civilians when they seek help. We compare how fire and police approach debriefs and mental health, why dispatchers are too often left out of critical incident reviews, and how Massachusetts' mandatory behavioral health training is a step forward. Along the way, we discuss the “300-call syndrome,” the risk of missing red flags after too many routine hang-ups, and the practical skills that matter most: active listening, reading background noise, trusting instincts, and knowing when to insist on a second unit.This conversation also honors the rare moments of closure that keep people going—the infant saved over the phone who grows up and stays in touch—and the quieter calls that reveal unmet needs, like elders who call because they're lonely. If you care about first responder mental health, emergency communications, crisis intervention, and trauma-informed practice, this is a grounded, real-world look at where help truly begins: the first call.

My guest is DJ Shipley, a former Tier 1 operator Navy SEAL and now a top public educator on how to build mental and physical health and reach top-level performance in any endeavor. DJ's life is one marked by extraordinary strivings, wins, setbacks and comebacks that together have shaped his approach to overcoming challenges of all kinds and to daily life. DJ explains a regimen of clear, practical steps and a mental stance that can allow anyone—male, female, young or old—to build extreme resilience of mind and body and to be successful in family and work. We also discuss his experience with new, emerging treatments for addiction, PTSD and depression that many people, not just veterans, are benefiting from. The tools DJ describes to “stack small wins” and to be ultra-intentional about your mindset will be of immense benefit to anyone wishing to achieve the best version of themselves.
