Despite decades of statin use costing approximately $25 billion annually in America alone, heart disease remains the leading cause of death, suggesting the cholesterol hypothesis that drives statin prescriptions is fundamentally flawed Studies show that lowering cholesterol with statins does not reduce heart disease, and yet these findings are ignored while statin guidelines are created by experts paid by pharmaceutical manufacturers Malcolm Kendrick's clotting model provides a superior explanation for heart disease: atherosclerotic plaques result from repeated damage to blood vessel linings which the body repairs with layers of clots The medical establishment dismisses widespread reports of statin injuries as "nocebo effects," paralleling how COVID-19 vaccine injuries were dismissed as "anxiety," despite extensive evidence corroborating the injuries The actual causes of heart disease — fine particulate matter from pollution and cigarettes, lead exposure, chronic stress, and endothelial damage — receive minimal research funding because effective interventions cannot be patented and sold as expensive pharmaceuticals like statins

Ok, the line leader for executive functions is working memory. Remember? At the end of the line is the higher level executive function of planning. Planning is the ultimate self care because it ensures high priority tasks will get completed and gives you peace. I'm explaining how getting your working memory and prospective memory to play nice, will allow Planning to have a chance to play a role in your life and finally free up your full cognitive bandwidth!  TMP Time management planning; plan for the day, prioritize, and set deadlines. You wrote your brian down on paper and you decided if it could wait. The items that could not wait need to be plugged into a time block in your week. This is Time management planning. The key to this is leaving a little white space for when life's inevitable interruptions pop up.  Contingency Planning You uplevel your planning when you have a contingent plan. Choose which items, if need be, for tomorrow's plan can be pushed to the next day or put back in the Sunday Basket®. We all know we will be interrupted but have you made a contingency plan, a back up plan, for the day you are planning? Studies show that people who have contingency plans get more done than those who do not. Those same studies show, mind you this is in the workplace, that even with support staff and a cleaning crew, they still only complete their to-do list, 80% of the time. At least one day a week they are not completing their tasks. Now I ask you, do you think we are interrupted more at home or at work? At home we are definitely interrupted more and we are the support staff and the cleaning crew. I hope this is giving you insight as to why you are not completing your to do list. There is a lot demanding our time. The Sunday Basket® shines at contingent planning. On Sunday when you are making the week's plan, you can think through your meals, what if there is a snow day, what if a college doesn't meet their deadline. But you must plan at the end. We realized, in looking over the 80 questions submitted for the Sunday Basket® webinar in late December, that most of you aren't getting to the planning step. You should start with sorting index cards and going through slash pockets, then you do random tasks and managerial tasks, for me it's CFO stuff.  Lastly, PLAN!  I say it takes me 90 min to 3 hours because it depends on how much I do between sorting and planning. Pro tip: I plan Friday "in pencil." I take all the tasks I need to complete and fill them into time blocks based on importance of completion. I know though, that by Friday, some tasks will have overflowed to Friday. Life happened all week. Some items will have to go back to the Sunday Basket® and some items will be pushed to Friday. There has to be white space for flexibility. That's why we have to honestly answer, "Can it wait till Sunday?" This question may free up time that was already given to something you wanted to do not had to do. There just isn't enough time to get it all done but there is enough time, if you plan, to get all the important stuff done through planning.  Strategic Planning Strategic planning is the long term planning, like what we do on Planning Day, in the Productive Home Solution™. When planning, it is best to have uninterrupted time because it requires our working memory. We cannot change people so we modify the environment. We cannot eliminate distractions so we must have daily/weekly plans. Planning will never become a habit. But you can use things like the beginning of the school week to plan your weeks and the school year as a reminder to get some long term planning done. Strategic planning is how we get a grounding system in place to tackle the three types of planning; TMP, contingency, and strategic.  Planning is the ultimate self care.

What if there are invisible forces affecting your health, emotions, and clarity that are more influential than anything you can see?   In this episode of HEAL with Kelly, I'm joined by Philipp Samor von Holtzendorff-Fehling, founder and CEO of Leela Quantum Tech, a company developing non-invasive quantum healing technologies designed to support vitality, energetic balance, and overall health.   Philipp's path didn't begin in wellness — it began in the corporate world, serving as a Vice President at T-Mobile, while privately navigating deep personal blocks that ultimately led him toward energy work and holistic healing. In this conversation, we explore the science behind the biofield, the quantum field, and the nervous system, and why nature holds the most powerful key to bringing us back into balance.   We also talk about potent scientific research, real-world experiments, and what happens when the internal “terrain” of the body begins to change — physically, emotionally, and energetically. From fertility and women's health markers to physical recovery, brain function, EMFs, blue light, and the power of intention and subconscious patterning, this episode weaves science, lived experience, and timeless wisdom together in a grounded, thoughtful way. It's an intriguing and inspiring conversation that invites a deeper understanding of how energy and frequency shape our lives, and opens us up to a world of infinite possibilities!  As a gift to our HEAL with Kelly community, use code KELLY10 for 10% off at Leela Quantum Tech.

This startling gap in care is the driving force behind My Diabetes Tutor, a telehealth platform founded by Dr. Prem Sahasranam. His mission? To make diabetes education accessible to everyone, regardless of geography or socioeconomic barriers.Dr. Sahasranam, a board-certified endocrinologist with nearly two decades of experience, explained how critical education is in diabetes management: “Studies have shown that just going through diabetes education reduces A1C by 0.73 points. At our program, our outcomes are two times better than the national average.” With over 9,000 patients served, My Diabetes Tutor consistently delivers remarkable results, achieving an average A1C reduction of 1.6 points—enough to significantly lower complications and mortality rates.The idea for My Diabetes Tutor was born out of necessity. Dr. Sahasranam shared a story about how two full-time diabetes educators in his rural California practice helped patients achieve exceptional outcomes. When they retired in 2018, he struggled to recruit replacements, a problem endemic to underserved areas. “I decided to build a telehealth program,” he said. “My goal was to solve an access issue and deliver diabetes education to people, irrespective of their zip code or language.”My Diabetes Tutor provides nationally accredited virtual diabetes education, covering medical nutrition therapy, continuous glucose monitoring, insulin pump training, and more. The platform recently launched the first-ever pediatric diabetes education program, a groundbreaking step toward addressing the needs of young patients.Dr. Sahasranam's vision extends beyond patient outcomes to include investor participation. My Diabetes Tutor is currently raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine. “I want investors to own a piece of our growth and be part of our journey,” he said. The company generated over $2 million in revenue last year with a 61 percent gross margin, demonstrating both impact and financial viability.Dr. Sahasranam's work is not just about business; it's a mission to transform lives. By breaking down barriers to education, he's giving people the tools to manage their diabetes effectively, live healthier lives, and reduce complications.For those looking to make a difference—or simply to invest in a business delivering measurable impact—My Diabetes Tutor offers a unique opportunity.tl;dr:Dr. Prem Sahasranam founded My Diabetes Tutor to provide virtual education for diabetes management.The program addresses barriers to care in underserved communities by delivering telehealth services nationwide.My Diabetes Tutor achieves outcomes twice as effective as national averages in reducing A1C levels.The company generated over $2 million in 2025 and is raising capital via StartEngine crowdfunding.Prem credits emotional intelligence as his superpower, driving his mission to revolutionize diabetes care.How to Develop Emotional Intelligence As a SuperpowerDr. Prem describes his superpower as emotional intelligence, honed through years of experience as a board-certified endocrinologist. He explained, “Most health systems focus on the biology of the disease and fail to address the human part.” By understanding the emotional and practical needs of patients, Prem has created innovative solutions to improve access to diabetes education. He added, “I learned from my experience and built the right team, content, and technology to bring in diabetes education, easily accessible for patients.”Prem shared a pivotal story of a patient who had been struggling to control their diabetes despite receiving appropriate medications. The patient hesitated to make a two-hour drive to see Prem but eventually visited his practice and met with a diabetes educator. Without altering the patient's medications, the educator provided tailored guidance that helped the patient manage their condition. This experience inspired Prem to create My Diabetes Tutor, ensuring patients could access life-changing education from their own homes.Tips for Developing Emotional Intelligence:Reflect on past experiences to identify unmet needs and learn from them.Stay aware of the human challenges behind systemic issues.Focus on creating solutions that address both emotional and practical barriers.Build strong, empathetic teams that align with your mission.By following Dr. Prem's example and advice, you can make emotional intelligence a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Has your intuition ever kept you out of harm's way? Mine did last week. And it reminded me how powerful our inner wisdom really is. The Power of Intuition and Mindset Shifts Today, I want to share two recent experiences. One is about a powerful mindset shift that surprised me. The other is about an intuitive message that quite possibly kept me from being injured. Both are examples of what I call Midlife Magic. Using energy, mindset, spiritual tools, and intuition to move through life with awareness and choice. There are certainly days when things don't go my way. I'm not floating through life pretending everything is perfect. But even on hard days, I consciously choose how I respond. I process what I feel, and then I look for a perspective that supports me instead of drains me. That's not spiritual bypassing. It's intentional living. Midlife Magic is available to anyone who chooses it. And midlife, by the way, is whatever age you decide it is. You're in charge of that. One of the gifts of this stage of life is wisdom. You've lived long enough to recognize patterns. You've made mistakes and learned from them. That wisdom shows up in small moments, in your ability to pause, to choose differently, to listen inward before reacting. And that's where today's first story begins. A Dubious Compliment Last week I received a LinkedIn message from a man I don't know. He told me my astonishing smile brightened his entire day. Oh, I'm sure it did. If you've been online longer than five minutes, you know the pattern. Flattery. Vague admiration. A setup for something questionable. There were so many ways I could have reacted. I could have been annoyed. Disgusted. I could have reported him. I could have spiraled into irritation and let it affect my entire mood. Instead, I paused. And in that pause, I noticed something important. I didn't actually want to experience any of those reactions. Yes, they were understandable. But I had another option. A thought popped into my head that felt lighter and more empowering. What if I just take the compliment as if it came from the Universe instead of from him? Not the motive. Not the person. Just the compliment. I deleted the message. But before I did, I allowed myself to imagine that my presence, my energy, my smile could brighten someone's day. Whether he meant it sincerely was irrelevant. I chose to let that part be true for me. That's Midlife Magic. Choose Where Your Energy Goes This isn't about ignoring your feelings. First you feel and acknowledge them. Then you decide where your energy goes. This is a mindset shift. I didn't need to analyze his intention or let irritation hijack my nervous system. I decided to focus on the version of me who moves through the world with ease and sparkle instead of armor and suspicion. And that choice changed how I felt. We all know how easy it is to spiral downward. One moment of yuck can drain your energy. Then you have to recover and that takes time and effort. But when you practice shifting perspective, you build a different pattern. Interestingly, research supports this. Studies from the National Institutes of Health show that happiness isn't something that randomly appears. It's shaped by what we repeatedly focus on and value. When you linger on a good moment, appreciate something small, or engage in something meaningful, you're reinforcing neural pathways that make it easier to notice what's working. Over time, those tiny choices train your brain to default toward steadiness rather than stress. And here's the key: intuition becomes easier to hear when your nervous system feels safe and resourced. When you aren't constantly frazzled, your inner voice gets clearer. Be Open, But Discerning A friend told me a story that beautifully illustrates this idea. Her nephew once saw a woman on Instagram he found attractive. He sent her a direct message that simply said, “What's up?” Yes. That was it. The woman responded with, “Do I know you?” They started chatting and now they are happily married. I'm not suggesting you respond to every random message. Not at all. Discernment matters and so does safety. Yet, sometimes opportunity arrives in unexpected packaging. The lesson isn't to always engage. It’s that you get to CHOOSE. You can stay open without abandoning your wisdom. You can be discerning without being closed. Where in your life could you be just a little more open? What has shown up recently that rubbed you the wrong way at first glance? And is there a silver lining you could take while leaving the rest behind? You don't have to force positivity. You simply get to decide what something means to you. That's real wisdom and power. Now let me share the story about how my intuition kept me safe. Intuitive Messages There's a door in my house that leads from the family room to the garage. The locking mechanism has been slightly off for months, so the door has to be slammed to close properly. One freezing morning, after slamming it on my way out, I heard a calm inner voice say, “Look up.” There was no panic or fear. Just a quiet suggestion. So I turned around and looked up. Above the door hangs a large, heavy horseshoe, one of my husband's blacksmith treasures. The two nails holding it in place were sticking out nearly an inch. It was hanging at an angle and could easily have fallen on one of us. If I hadn't looked up, it very well might have. I immediately felt gratitude and said “Thank you” to the sender of that message. Later, my husband rehung it more securely. The crisis was averted. That calm inner message is what intuition often feels like for me. Not dramatic or loud. Just clear. This wasn't the first time. Years ago, I heard an inner nudge to tell a barking dog, “I love you.” It sounded ridiculous. I almost ignored it. But I said it anyway. The dog stopped barking and never barked at me again. Over time, I've noticed patterns like this. Warnings about people. Guidance about jobs. Alerts about small dangers like a candle rolling out of its holder and burning the table. Ignoring Intuition Has Consequences When I was younger, I ignored these intuitive nudges and suffered the consequences. Now I don't. That's part of the wisdom that comes with midlife. You recognize patterns and trust your track record. Then, you pay attention to the information received. And that deep well of inner knowing is always available. Isn't it time you accessed your inner wisdom and magic more deliberately?People who rely on their intuition have many advantages in life. Start by setting an intention to notice your intuition.  Then keep an evidence journal. Write down the nudges you followed, the ones you ignored, and the outcomes. Pay attention to the feelings in your body. Tracking the evidence builds self-trust. It makes intuition feel real and reliable rather than vague or imaginary. Over time, those whispers stop feeling questionable and start feeling trustworthy. That's Midlife Magic. And the best news is that it's already inside you!

A new embedded workplace study finds that AI isn't shrinking work—it's expanding it, as power users take on more tasks, blur boundaries between work and downtime, and juggle parallel projects once thought impossible. The result isn't reduced relevance or less value, but a new kind of pressure driven by expanded capability and rising expectations, especially as agentic tools accelerate what individuals and teams can attempt. This episode digs into what that shift really means for productivity, job displacement fears, and why the real challenge of AI may be managing abundance.

Feeling nervous before games? Here's a simple one-word reframe that changes everything: Instead of saying "I'm nervous," say "I'm excited." Your body literally can't tell the difference.

When asked why she sought counseling, Mable explained that her teenage daughter was in rebellion. However, she was caught off guard when the counselor redirected the conversation to the state of their marriage—wondering why he would begin there.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken sits down with Leanne O'Neil, a former neurofeedback practitioner who made the bold decision to sell her practice and go all-in on Splankna after seeing deeper, faster, and more affordable results for emotional regulation and trauma support. Leanne shares her fascinating professional journey out of brain-based technology and into a Christ-centered, mind-body approach to emotional freedom. Together, Laura and Leanne explore why Splankna often reaches places that traditional brain training and neurofeedback cannot—especially when it comes to trauma, subconscious patterns, and forgiveness. This episode also takes a surprising turn into the growing scientific and academic interest in forgiveness and emotional regulation, highlighting how leading universities are now studying the role of forgiveness in mental health, stress reduction, and human flourishing. Leanne explains how forgiveness work fits naturally into Splankna sessions and why unresolved emotional pain can quietly keep people stuck—even when they are highly motivated to change. If you are curious about neurofeedback, trauma support, forgiveness research, or why someone would walk away from a successful clinical practice to follow Jesus into a completely different model of care—this episode will give you clarity, hope, and language to understand what Splankna actually offers.

Please join Denise and Samantha as they discuss different ways to implement a daily practice into your life. They explore different ways to work specific practices attuned to you into your day in order to feel more balanced mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Studies have shown that integrating daily practices can enhance mental clarity, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. The focus of small, consistent actions that can be easily integrated into daily life, such as mindfulness, physical routines, and spiritual rituals seems to be a key in developing consistency. Some practices can evolve with life stages and contribute to cognitive functioning and resilience but what it really comes down to is finding the personal rituals that resonate with you and find a way to prioritize this self-care into your daily routine. If you have a routine or practice that has improved your quality of life in some way and you’d like to share, please send us a note at: http://enlightenedempaths.com For more information about Samantha and her work: http://samanthafey.com Denise and her offerings can be found at: http://thegratefulmessenger.com

In Black Shakespeare: Reading and Misreading Race (Cambridge University Press, 2022), Ian Smith urges readers of Othello, The Merchant of Venice, and Hamlet to develop “racial literacy.” Through both wide social influences and specific professional pressures, Shakespearean critics have been taught to ignore, suppress, and explain away the racial thinking of the plays, a set of evasion strategies that inevitably have political and social ramifications in the contemporary United States. As Ian writes in the introduction, Black Shakespeare is intended to “shift the focus to conditions that shape readers, inform their epistemologies, and influence their reading practices” (3). Today's guest is Ian Smith, Professor of English at the University of Southern California. Ian is the author of the previous monograph, Race and Rhetoric in the Renaissance: Barbarian Errors (Palgrave, 2009), as well as one of the most important articles in early modern literary criticism of the last twenty years, “Othello's Black Handkerchief.” Ian is the current President of the Shakespeare Association of America. John Yargo is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Environmental Humanities at Boston College. He holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. His specializations are early modern literature, the environmental humanities, and critical race studies. His dissertation explores early modern representations of environmental catastrophe, including William Shakespeare's The Tempest, Aphra Behn's Oroonoko, and John Milton's Paradise Lost. He has published in Early Theatre, Studies in Philology, The Journal for Early Modern Cultural Studies, and Shakespeare Studies. Learn more about your ad choices.

Start of Arny Ferrando's episode recap is at 14:00 minutes. In today's Friday solocast, Vanessa Spina recaps her recent interview with Arny Ferrando, one of the world's leading experts on human muscle protein metabolism — and explains why fat loss problems are often muscle problems in disguise. The episode opens with two brand-new studies that challenge common fat-loss assumptions, including new findings on hydration and body fat loss, and surprising research linking resistance training with intelligence and cognitive performance. From there, Vanessa distills the most important insights from her conversation with Dr. Ferrando, including why simply eating less often backfires, how aging and hormonal changes impair muscle metabolism, and what most people misunderstand about protein needs, circulation, and metabolic slowdown.

One week ahead of his much-anticipated Super Bowl performance, Bad Bunny made history when he won the first Grammy for album of the year for a Spanish-language record. He used his acceptance remarks to admonish cruel immigration enforcement, uplift immigrants and shout out his native Puerto Rico. As scholars Vanessa Díaz and Petra Rivera-Rideau, point out in their new book, “P FKN R: How Bad Bunny Became the Global Voice of Puerto Rican Resistance,” the reggaetonero has never shied away from infusing politics into his musical career. Díaz and Rivera-Rideau, also creators of the “Bad Bunny Syllabus,” join us to break down Bad Bunny's music and activism. Guests: Vanessa Díaz, associate professor of Chicana/o and Latina/o Studies, Loyola Marymount University; co-founder, Bad Bunny Syllabus; co-author, "P FKN R: How Bad Bunny Became the Global Voice of Puerto Rican Resistance" Petra Rivera-Rideau, associate professor and chair of the American Studies Department, Wellesley College; co-founder, Bad Bunny Syllabus; co-author, "P FKN R: How Bad Bunny Became the Global Voice of Puerto Rican Resistance" Learn more about your ad choices.

It can age your brain, and it can take years to recover from. Lesley Logan 0:17  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:56  All right, Be It babe. Hello. Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It podcast, we are completing, well at least for now, our series on burnout. Super excited about these little mini series that we're doing. We did habits. We've done self-love. We've got this one, and I really hope you're liking it. And if you are wanting more of these, then let us know, because we want this podcast to be something you want to listen to. And if you have any topics you want us to cover, then let us know. Or if you have any guests, you can send those in. And also, if you have questions after listening to these questions, or aha moments or wins, send that into beitpod.com/questions we will answer your questions on our Thursday episodes for recaps on or when we have interviews, and we will share your wins on the FYFs. And I think it's really important, like, if you have a win, you're like, oh my gosh, I was able to catch myself in some non self-love or bad habit, bad in air quotes, it's not really, there's no such thing as bad habit, habits, things like that. We want to celebrate that with you, because one, it will feel good, but also inspires others. Lesley Logan 1:53  So the first episode on this series was actually like, what does burnout look like? Why is it happening? This episode is on prevention, right? And I think that that that is where we can take some action, and we can really apply our Be It Till We See It style to this, right? So let me pull up my handy dandy notes on this, because it's really exciting. So there are some really great resources out there on preventing burnout, and I was able to find some from different scientists and doctors and people have been really researching this, because, as we know from the last episode, burnout can actually take years off of your life, it can age your brain, and it can take years to recover from. So we know that burnout is essentially losing your muchness from the Mad Hatter quote that I talked about in the last episode, you've lost your muchness. You used to be much, muchier. But truly burnout is you can get burnout from any chronic stress situation, so you know, and this is hard because we don't always get to control the things that are going on in our life. So of the first few things that I'm going to say, I'm just going to tell you right now, like practice mindfulness and micro breaks. So okay, there you can actually study mindfulness, and that is really cool. UCLA has a degree, or not a degree, but a certificate in mindfulness. And it's not easy to do, right? But there are different ways that you can practice mindfulness. One of the things that we did was we froze a grape, and then we practice like putting the frozen grape in our mouth, and like focusing on how that grape felt in our mouth, how like it tasted, what it felt like. We didn't chew it, right? We just, like, kind of focused on it. That's really helpful if you have a hard time meditating. Also, we did mindfulness walks. We like walk. You pay attention to right foot, left foot, right, just like really doing it. But micro breaks and mindfulness practices are going to be really huge for you, especially if you are, if what's going on is out of control, you can't change the situation you're in. We had a client whose parents were in the hospital, and it wasn't looking good. It was like they might never relieve and this client, after a few days of just like, dealing with all that, she realized, like she needed to do her Pilates Mat every day, and just doing that gave her a sense of prioritizing herself, but also purpose, and then just a mindfulness, just like, just like 20 minutes to focus on what she's doing and herself, you know, before she went into this situation that she can't control.Lesley Logan 4:08  All right, this is going to sound obvious, but also we need to talk about it, because I do meet a lot of people who struggle with this. So if you struggle with this, you are not alone, boundaries, you have to set them to protect your energy. The most resilient leaders set clear limits on their time, carve out sacred personal times, whether for the gym, family dinners or unplugged weekends, and communicate these boundaries firmly. Studies show that working reasonable hours and taking breaks boost productivity and creativity while always being on diminishes them. So if you are always on all the time, and you let people come ask for things for work all the time, it actually diminishes your creativity and your productivity. You're not getting as much stuff done as you think, or doing it well. And this is really hard because people get nervous about setting boundaries, they think they're gonna piss people off. You might. You know, I definitely think that there are people, and especially my professional world, where they don't love the boundaries that I set, where I'm like, I won't do those things for you, but I'll do these things for you. And the reality is, there's kind ways to say it. Sometimes you have to just be firm and just say it. Sometimes it's actually just easier to say, like, this is the boundary. This is what I will do for you. But one, they're kind we actually have a really great episode with Tanya Dalton about boundaries. So if you haven't listed that one, I would. It's so, so important, and it's not going to be easy, especially if you're not used to it, and people who love you might get frustrated about the boundaries you're setting, because you are changing the way that they engage with you. You're changing their habits outside of their control, but that isn't your responsibility, especially if you're trying to prevent burnout, because you're no good to anyone, unmotivated, having anxiety, tired, chronic fatigue, like these are things that can actually cause more issues in your life than it just you going, I don't answer the calls after five o'clock, sorry, right? And actually not even sorry, I don't answer call my phone after 5pm unless it's in a family emergency. Like, that's it. So the other thing, and this is why I was, like, we have to do a burnout separate from a self-love, because they are different things, but they go together. You have to prioritize self-compassion and support. So remember, in the self-love we talk about how, like, you have to be nice to yourself. That's part of self-love. You got to practice that that act in itself will not only love you, but it will also help prevent burnout. So huge, like even double the reasons to do it right. So high-achieving women often hold themselves to impossible standards, and I would actually edit that to overachieving women. I think high-achieving women can have kindness towards themselves, you know, so practicing self-compassion, speaking to yourself as you would a close friend, reduces guilt and shame, very important, and it builds resilience. Seeking support is equally crucial, and you might need to lean on mentors, peers and loved ones. Asking for help is actually strategic strength and not weakness. And so there's a ton of research on how recognizing the need for self-care is actually the first step in restoring the balance in your life. And so just right now, if you're listening to this and you're like recognizing, I need to care for myself more. I need to have more self-compassion, your body is going to react to that in a way that is going to help the first step in balance and rebalancing what's going on in your life. And so I think that that is key key I think it'll be harder if you're not used to having self-compassion in yourself it might be harder than boundaries and mindfulness. I'm going to be honest, but it's important. So establishing healthy boundaries that includes prioritizing your self-care, that means regular exercise. So like, what is a healthy boundary and where do you need to put them in? So I think you know, most boundaries are probably healthy, but looking at making sure that you have quality sleep. So you might actually want to start with, like, when do you go to bed? When do you wake up? What does that mean for the people in your life, if you're gonna go to bed earlier, do they need to do stuff in their life earlier? Do they need to help you out sooner? And I highly recommend with these things, I'm about to suggest you don't try all of them the same week. My loves. You want to use the anyone these that that kind of perks, like piques your fancy, perks you up. I want you to run through the habits series, because it's gonna help you. So if you want quality sleep, you'll go through the habit series on like all the different things that you think you can do to get quality sleep, and then start habits around that before you would dive into regular exercise, if that's not something that's easy for you, or going to therapy social connections, like nurturing your social connections and spending time with friends that can help, but you have to also have to have, you know, boundaries around that, and it might mean that you need new social connections. So that may be something you're like worth reviewing. Are the social connections in your life adding to your burnout or preventing it? Lesley Logan 8:32  Reading, journaling, other hobbies. So I actually think a lot of people are missing out on a great hobby. I think a lot of, especially a lot of women I meet, their hobbies become jobs. I've been very public about how, like, I have a new hobby. I'm really loving what I'm doing. I'm studying tarot. And every time I tell people in my life I'm studying tarot, oh, my God, would you do a reading for me? No, the answer is no. One, that's boundary. Two, I want to keep it a hobby. Maybe at this at some point I would, I would do readings for friends, just for the fun of it. But right now, where I'm at with my hobby is not sharing with other people, and that's okay. You know? What's also really great you guys for prioritizing your self-care and having some healthy boundaries, you could actually take a relaxing bath, pamper yourself, right? These are not rewards. These are not rewards. These are just things that you do regularly for you to prioritize your self-care. So prioritizing your self-care can also look like laughter, entertainment, the way you fuel yourself, the food you eat, all of that is prioritizing. So if you're like, I'm too busy, oh my gosh, you have to eat every day. Can we just make sure that the foods that you eat are actually nourishing you? Can we do that? The other parts of preventing burnout are going to be seeking social support and doing some sort of mindfulness practice. We talked about that. I'm going to give you a few tips on the mindfulness practice and then cultivating a positive work environment, that is hard, can be hard to do if you don't control that. Regular exercise is also important for preventing burnout, and then getting therapy or their doctors involved is going to be helpful. But let's dive into mindfulness practice because, like I said, UCLA does have a certificate in this. But what are some other ideas, if you're like, I don't want to, like, focus on a grape, or practicing how I walk, deep-breathing, just sitting here and going inhale, right and then exhaling and just focusing on your breath. Maybe you only do it for five breaths. That's totally fine. There's mindfulness meditation apps, right? Like, there's like, all these different apps you can get on. There's a podcast about mindfulness meditation, and she releases a new meditation every single week. You can replay this, the one that you love. Guided imagery that is like, where you can kind of find a meditation or a guide who can help you picture what you want your world to look like, so you can make adjustments and being it until you see it. Mindful walking, we talked about that, mindful eating, that's also great, mindful journaling. Write down your thoughts and feelings in a journal. Focus on the present moment. This practice can provide clarity, insight and healthy outlet for emotions. We had David Corbin, and he, his one of his Be It Action Items was ask right the question at the top of a piece of paper, and then close your eyes and then write down what comes to your mind. You'll be like writing all over the page, but that active journaling can be really mindful, and if you are going to use mindfulness, some of them can be more expensive than you want them to be. So like I said, there, there are podcasts out there on different music apps you're already paying for. There's probably some sort of mindful meditations you can be listening to. So take a look at that. I know that my fitness apps that I have also have mindful meditations on them. So try not to double up on things, because that could just be overwhelming and cause, cause, add to your burnout, right, that you're having. Lesley Logan 11:28  So if your burnout is looking deeper into, presenting itself as deeper into anxiety or depression, I definitely would go to the helpline for the ADAA, which is the Anxiety and Depression Association of America. You can also check out the help line of Be The Difference. You know, it's part of reading burnout is asking for help. There's nothing wrong that. And if you need the people in your life, you're like, I can't go to them. That's okay. You know, sometimes the people in our life are also experiencing these things, so we don't want to add one more thing to their plate, or they are, they can't be the help that we need, you know, and that that sometimes what we need is professional and so I hope that that this helps give you permission to seek professional help if you need it. And I know it's difficult, oh my gosh, I have a I have to call my insurance company myself to, like, call this one place and see if my insurance covers it. And then I then I get to call the place, and then I get to have the appointment. Like, I get that. So get that, which is why, if that is one of the things you have to do in a day, do that and know that that's part of the self-care that you're trying to do for yourself, and that's part of prioritizing yourself. And then while you wait, try on one of these things that prioritizes yourself or sets boundaries, or helps with mindfulness, so that you can be little by little, doing something. You know, a lot of the people I coach, they're like, I want to do this, this, this and this. Try one thing. Go back to that habit series, one tiny, tiny habit, so that you can actually make a dent in what it is that you're wanting to do and get there, you know, be it till you see no one gets there overnight. We all the joke is, Rome wasn't built in a day. It really wasn't, you know, but then we expect ourselves. So I should be better tomorrow, because now I know I have burnout. I prioritized myself today, so I shouldn't be burnt out tomorrow. If you are already there, it's going to take some time to take some time to unravel what's going on, right? But you can do it, and you owe it to the future you to do it. You owe it to the people that you love to do it, right? The people you want to love or you don't even have in your life yet. So I hope these tools help. I hope this gives you some ideas. You know, ask the people on Instagram, like, what are your prevention tools for burnout? And what I got was a lot of people struggling with burnout. So I know that this is an important topic. It's difficult to like, but I have to get up tomorrow like, I can't cancel, the Pilates teachers that I coach like, I can't cancel the day tomorrow, you can't but if we if you get so burnt out that you're sick now we got weeks, right? So not saying cancel the clients, but I am saying maybe, maybe this exam client has to find a different time or a different teacher, because you can't do it anymore. Maybe that's where we have to start. If that, if you can't afford to do that yet, then okay, journaling is free. Deep breaths are free. Playing music that helps your brain feel really calm and good. It's, you know, probably not free because you have to get a license, but it's not, it's nominal, right? Lesley Logan 14:27  So just know that every time you're doing something for you that makes you feel good, it is a step in the prevention of burnout, and you are worth it. Burnout is not like burned out. It's like this, like this, like little flippant thing. No, it's a serious thing, a serious thing that has serious consequences and affects people, not just you, in the world, in your life, in a way that isn't helpful. And so I know how much you love what you do, and how much you love the people that are in your life. I want you to love yourself enough take care of you so that you can do all. The things that you want with the people you love, and so you can be it till you see it. So share this with the friend who needs to hear it. Let me know if each of these tools was helpful for you or what your favorite tools are. What are the ways that you help with boundaries or prioritizing yourself or mindfulness? I would love to hear them and until next time, Be It Till You See It.Lesley Logan 15:16  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

By mitigating this "invisible noise," you allow your body to stop fighting its environment and start functioning as it was meant to.   CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARYS VIP!: https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg Connect with Josh Bruni Website: https://bit.ly/4a3Duze  YouTube: https://bit.ly/4a3Dz60  Instagram: https://bit.ly/4a3MyV2  Facebook: https://bit.ly/3OakMyx  X: https://bit.ly/4bpkm0Z  LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3ZFora8  Thank you to our partners A-GAME: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: http://bit.ly/4kek1ij  AION: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD  AIRES: "ULTIMATE20 " FOR 20% OFF: https://bit.ly/4a3Duze    BAJA GOLD: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa  BODYHEALTH: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV  CARAWAY: “ULTIMATE” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3Q1VmkC  COLD LIFE: THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: https://bit.ly/4eULUKp  GENETIC METHYLATION TEST (UK ONLY): https://bit.ly/48QJJrk  GENETIC TEST (USA ONLY): ⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9  GOPUFF: GET YOUR FAVORITE SNACK!: https://bit.ly/4obIFDC  H2TABS: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg  HEALF: 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: https://bit.ly/41HJg6S  PEPTUAL: “TUH10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4mKxgcn  RHO NUTRITION: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: https://bit.ly/44fFza0  SNOOZE: LET'S GET TO SLEEP!: https://bit.ly/4pt1T6V  WHOOP: JOIN AND GET 1 FREE MONTH!: https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW  Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8 Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3RQftU0 Connect with Gary Brecka Instagram: https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs TikTok: https://bit.ly/4coJ8fo X: https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf Facebook: https://bit.ly/464VA1H LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2 Website: https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU Merch: https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1 Newsletter: https://bit.ly/47ejrws Ask Gary: https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG Timestamps 00:00 Intro of Show 04:15 EMFs: Definition, Effects, and How to Mitigate Them 22:31 Blocking vs. Mitigating EMFs 29:42 EMF Mitigation Technology 35:18 Environment and Stress's Impact on Our Body 40:41 40 STUDIES on EMFs: https://bit.ly/4sY3810  44:09 Restructuring EMF to Neutralise Physiological Impact 45:39 How Bad is the Complexity of 5G for People? 51:55 Where to Start in Mitigating EMF Exposure 1:00:53 Modern Vehicles' Designs Risks 1:04:16 Hypersensitivity with EMFs 1:08:59 Mitigating EMF Exposure in Your Own Home 1:14:28 Are Women More Sensitive to EMFs than Men? 1:19:54 Equating the Frequency of Connected Devices 1:28:49 What does it mean to you to be an Ultimate Human?

Get Ari Whitten's Book here:  https://theenergyblueprint.com/referral.html?p=nataliejill&w=RLTBookLaunch  What if the most effective anti-aging tool isn't some skincare in your cabinet but is something that has been scientifically proven for 30 years, studied across 6,000 peer-reviewed research papers, and yet nobody told you about it? What if the reason you haven't heard about it isn't because it doesn't work, but because the science moved faster than the system?  In this episode, I'm sitting down with Ari Whitten, one of the world's leading experts in photobiomodulation and red light therapy. Ari and I have known each other for nearly two decades. What he's discovered about light, cellular energy, aging, and mitochondrial health has genuinely transformed how I approach my own health. That's why I'm bringing him back to share this information with you. We're diving deep into topics that matter: Is red light therapy actually scientifically proven, or is it just the latest wellness trend? (Spoiler: 6,000 peer-reviewed studies, 30+ years of research, and now mainstream adoption says it's proven.) How does red light actually work at the cellular level? (Hint: it's not magic, it's mitochondrial biology.) Why are dermatologists still recommending sun avoidance when red light from the sun is protective? (And how do you know which wavelengths actually age you?) Which devices actually work, which ones are a waste of money, and how do you know the difference? (Device selection matters more than most people realize.) How can red light therapy support anti-aging, energy, recovery, sleep, and brain function all at the same time? (It's not separate benefits, it's connected cellular biology.) Why don't doctors talk about this if the science is solid? (The answer reveals a lot about how medicine actually works.) How does diet work synergistically with red light therapy for skin health? (Your vegetables are doing more for sun protection than you realize.) Your body hasn't evolved to live under artificial lights all day and then in bright LED light all night. It's evolved to sync with the sun. But the sun's effects on your health depend on understanding which wavelengths you're getting and what they actually do. Red light therapy isn't a new invention. It's 30 years of proven science finally becoming mainstream. When you align your light exposure with natural cycles, strategically use red light therapy for specific goals, and support your skin with proper nutrition, you're not just optimizing. You're addressing one of the most fundamental inputs to human health that most people completely overlook. The science isn't new…public understanding of it is just catching up.

In this episode of Echoes Through Eternity, Dr. Jeffrey D. Skinner explores a troubling but often overlooked trend: while Gen Z men are returning to church, young women are quietly leaving.This is not loud rebellion. It is not rejection of Jesus. It is a slow erosion of belonging.Joined by Rev. Dr. Kim McLean, mentored by Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn and others—pastor, songwriter, church planter, and longtime mentor of others—this conversation examines how shame-based formation, unequal leadership structures, purity culture, and unresolved trauma have shaped women's experiences in the church.Drawing on Barna research, lived pastoral stories, and a Wesleyan understanding of holiness as love perfected, this episode asks a deeper question: What happens when formation fails to produce freedom?Key themes include:• The growing gender gap in church attendance• Why women leave without abandoning faith• The impact of shame-based discipleship• Women in ministry and invisible ceilings• Purity culture and spiritual trauma• Why silence feels safer than staying• What faithful formation looks like nowThis episode is not an indictment. It is an invitation—to listen, to repent where needed, and to build churches where women are not merely welcomed, but needed.REFERENCED RESEARCH & THINKERSBarna Group• Gen Z attendance trends and gender gap research• Studies on church disengagement and trust in leadershipSurvey Center on American Life• Faith deconstruction and institutional trust• Gendered religious disengagementBeth Moore• Public departure from the Southern Baptist Convention• Reflections on women, authority, and ScriptureMildred Bangs Wynkoop• A Theology of Love• Holiness as relational restoration, not behavioral perfectionScriptural anchors used or referenced:• Galatians 3:28• John 4 (Woman at the Well)• Resurrection witness of Mary Magdalene• Ephesians 5 (mutual submission, not hierarchy)Takeaways:Gen Z women are experiencing a quiet exodus from church, indicating a deeper relational breakdown.This exodus is characterized by a lack of belonging rather than outright rejection of faith.The data reveals a significant gap in church attendance between young men and women.Church leadership must address the relational safety and equal treatment of women in ministry.Many young women feel unseen and confined to narrow roles within church communities.The shift observed among young women invites churches to reflect on their practices and priorities.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacyOP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy
