"God and Our Dogs" Bonus Treat with Lisa Fullerton - When Emotions Lie Has your heart ever lied to you? In this bonus conversation, Lisa Fullerton (CEO of A Novel Idea, featured in Show #115) shares powerful insights about the command "STOP" and why we need God's truth as our plumb line when emotions threaten to lead us astray. Lisa trained her Labrador retrievers and discovered profound parallels about obedience, boundaries, and truth. Just as her dog Bentley stops on command, we need to learn when to stop and listen to God's guidance—especially when our feelings are most intense. Key Topics: ✓ Why the "STOP" command matters for dogs AND people ✓ How feelings can deceive us ✓ The difference between subjective truth vs. absolute truth ✓ Building a biblical worldview as your plumb line ✓ Why training matters in our relationship with God ✓ Walking the talk in Christian community About the Show: God and Our Dogs helps discover a new perspective to rely on God the way our dogs rely on us. Stories of time, training, and trust with our dogs demonstrate transformation in relationships and faith.

Each step should be documented and focused on helping the employee succeed.Employee evaluations should happen at least quarterly, not just annually, and should focus on a roadmap forward rather than a year's worth of saved-up grievances.Subjective issues like attitude can be addressed objectively by including conduct expectations in your employee code of conduct and discussing them during the interview process.Keeping underperforming or toxic employees because you're afraid of unemployment claims or confrontation can cost you your best people, your culture, and significant money when you sell the business.Bonus structures should reward measurable outcomes like accuracy, response time, and process improvements rather than flat annual gifts that create entitlement.Fractional HR professionals can work with your budget on a retainer or project basis, starting as small as a single job description, and scale with you over time.ResourcesFirst Break All The Rules by Marcus Buckingham and Curt CoffmanImplementing AI in Your Business Workshop Sign-Up 24 Things Construction Business Owners Need to Successfully Hire & Train an Executive AssistantSchedule a 15-Minute Roadblock CallBuild a Business that Runs without you.

Megan Almon joins Scott Klusendorf to dissect the progressive "christian" defense of abortion championed by "pastor" Rebecca Todd Peters. They examine how Peters replaces objective biblical truth with standpoint epistemology and reduces morality and ethics to the subjective lived experience.

Send a textThere are moments in the Christian life when we suddenly realise we've drifted—subtly, quietly—back into trying to earn what God has already given us. We may start well in the Spirit, but somewhere along the way, the old habits of self‑effort creep back in. And if that has happened to you, then Paul's words in Galatians 3 should hit us like a wake‑up call:In today's episode, we're stepping into one of the most personal, piercing, yet liberating passages in the whole letter. Paul isn't giving a lecture—he's asking us to look at our lives and inviting us to seek again at the proof of the gospel in our own lives: The work of the Spirit, the gift of grace, the miracle of our new birth, and the quiet evidence that God Himself has been at work in us from the very beginning.So, as you listen, let the Word of God remind you of the freedom you already have. Because the gospel doesn't just save us—it sustains us, shapes us, and empowers us every single day….Meet Me in the Word: A Daily DevotionalThoughtful reflections for Jesus-Followers Monday through Friday.Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showFollow and support me on Patreon.

What happens when the traditional path never quite fits — and life forces you to grow up faster than your peers? In this episode of Success is Subjective, Allan Capp shares how struggling in school, losing his father as a teenager, and rejecting the “college equals success” narrative led him down a very different road. From working construction and managing restaurants to living out of a backpack in the wilderness and eventually co-owning a therapeutic gap program in Costa Rica, Allan's journey is a powerful example of redefining success on your own terms. This conversation explores grief, identity, work ethic, and what it really means to build a meaningful life — even without a degree. Allan also speaks candidly about the transferable skills that matter more than a résumé and how stepping outside your comfort zone can become the catalyst for growth. If you've ever questioned whether there's only one “right” way to move forward after high school, this episode offers both perspective and permission to define success for yourself.Allan's Resources: Website: Pure LifeFacebook: Pure LifeInstagram: @purelifeadventureYouTube: Pure Life Adventure TherapyConnect with Joanna Lilley Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail: joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #PureLifeAdventure #GapYear #AdventureTherapy #CostaRica

ABOUT THE EPISODE:If you've been waiting for the right moment to bring up the idea of getting your young adult some support, and you're not sure how to do it without blowing up every landmine between you, this episode is for you. Joanna Lilley, therapeutic consultant and host of the podcast Success is Subjective, is back on Hopestream, and she's pulling back the curtain on what it actually looks like to help a young adult move toward help. Joanna works exclusively with the 18 to 29 crowd, and her approach is deceptively simple: meet them where they are, agenda-free, not where your fear wants them to be.What makes Joanna's process so potent is the way it preserves a young adult's agency at every step. There's no attempt at maneuvering them into a decision or finding the magic words that finally crack them open. It's about creating the conditions where they feel like the architect of what comes next, and why that buy-in matters more than the program itself. Joanna also gets real about what she's seeing shift in the treatment landscape right now, including why young adults are staying longer in programs, how the complexity of what's showing up has changed dramatically, and what questions parents actually need to be asking before you commit to anything.When you listen, you'll learn:Why some young adults may have a deeply distorted picture of what treatment looks like, and how to gently disrupt that narrative without pushing them further awayHow Joanna structures her first conversation with a young adult so it feels like a genuine exchange rather than a formal ‘intake' processWhy giving your young adult the choice of who to work with matters just as much as the choice of where to goWhy it's wise to start the ‘what might treatment look like' process before you think you need to and what it might cost you if you waitEPISODE RESOURCES:Joanna Lilley (Lilley Consulting) websiteJoanna on Hopestream podcast episode #208 Joanna on Hopestream podcast episode #39This podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityGet our free, 4-video course, Hope Starts Here, and access to our Limited Membership hereLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram hereWatch the podcast on YouTube hereDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

Kein Bock auf Schmerz? Verständlich. Aber wir brauchen ihn. Er hilft uns, gute Entscheidungen zu treffen, sagt die Schmerzforscherin Susanne Becker. Wie Schmerz funktioniert und wie wir ihn beeinflussen können, erklärt sie in ihrem Vortrag. Susanne Becker ist Professorin für Klinische Psychologie an der Heinrich-Heine-Universität in Düsseldorf und erforscht unter anderem, was psychologisch und biologisch dahintersteckt, dass wir Schmerzen individuell und auch in verschiedenen Situationen so anders empfinden.

In this special solo episode, Darin shares a deeply personal announcement years in the making. After more than two and a half years of traveling, filming, listening, and immersing himself in cultures and conversations around the world, Darin officially invites listeners into a living project and movement: The Roadmap to Happiness. This upcoming series features powerful conversations with voices like Jason Momoa, Elijah Wood, Shailene Woodley, and Alec Baldwin, alongside everyday people across the globe, all exploring what truly creates contentment, connection, and hope. This episode is not about hacks or quick fixes. it's about what truly creates contentment, connection, and hope across cultures.

In this solo episode, Darin dives into one of the most universal modern experiences: the feeling that time is accelerating. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, cognitive science, and lived experience, he breaks down why time doesn't actually speed up, but our experience of it radically changes. From the impact of digital distraction and divided attention to the way novelty, memory, aging, and even COVID reshaped our internal sense of time, this episode offers both clarity and agency. Darin shows how reclaiming attention, breaking monotony, and creating richer experiences can give us the feeling of having our time back. What You'll Learn Why time measured by a clock is different from time experienced by the brain How attention, memory, and emotion construct subjective time Why boredom feels slow while flow states feel fast How novelty creates richer memories and longer-feeling lives The role of routine and monotony in time compression How digital technology fragments attention and erases memory Why social media scrolling makes time disappear without satisfaction How COVID disrupted temporal landmarks and distorted time perception Why time feels faster as we age The neuroscience behind memory density and perceived duration Whether time itself is an illusion or a constructed experience Practical ways to slow down your experience of time How breaking routine restores a sense of fullness and presence Why life is measured in experiences, not seconds Chapters 00:00:03 – Welcome to SuperLife and the exploration of time 00:00:32 – Sponsor: TheraSage and frequency-based healing 00:02:16 – Why time feels like it's speeding up 00:03:07 – Measured time vs experienced time 00:03:39 – Subjective time and how the brain constructs duration 00:04:38 – Boredom, flow, and why time feels slow or fast 00:05:20 – Memory density and time compression 00:05:42 – Clock models vs attention and memory models 00:06:13 – Novelty, travel, and rich experiences 00:06:34 – Routine, repetition, and unremarkable days 00:07:21 – Divided attention and disappearing moments 00:07:56 – The digital shift and fragmented attention post-2000 00:08:30 – Micro-stimulation and wasted time 00:09:12 – Why scrolling doesn't equal flow 00:09:46 – Social acceleration and modern life 00:10:25 – COVID as a global experiment in time perception 00:10:55 – Loss of temporal landmarks during lockdown 00:11:57 – Sponsor: Caldera Lab and clean skincare 00:13:39 – Research on monotony and time compression 00:14:40 – Aging, fewer neural events, and faster time 00:15:30 – Childhood vs adulthood time perception 00:16:22 – Is time real or constructed? 00:16:57 – Physics, relativity, and subjective experience 00:17:56 – How to slow down your experience of time 00:18:12 – Novelty, adventure, and memory creation 00:19:00 – Sustained attention vs multitasking 00:19:37 – Breaking monotony in daily life 00:20:06 – Reducing digital distraction 00:20:25 – Enjoying life as a scientific practice 00:20:49 – Time as memory, not seconds 00:21:08 – Gaining agency over your experience of life 00:21:29 – Creating a richer year through experience 00:22:10 – Curiosity, adventure, and Darin's fascination with time 00:23:27 – Closing thoughts and call to action Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Caldera Lab: Experience the clinically proven benefits of Caldera Lab's clean skincare regimen and enjoy 20% off your order by visiting calderalab.com/darin and using code DARIN at checkout.

Geoffrey Blaylock Returns: The Information That's Gap Killing Addicts | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this powerful return episode, Geoffrey Blaylock comes back to the Hopeaholics Podcast to continue the conversation on addiction as a brain-based disease, diving even deeper into the realities that families and individuals often misunderstand. Building on his previous appearance, he expands on trauma, attachment, and epigenetics, while challenging outdated intervention models and the damaging belief that addiction is simply a choice. He explains how impaired decision-making, toxic shame, and nervous system dysregulation keep people trapped in cycles of relapse and self-destruction. Through compelling analogies and real-world clinical examples, he clarifies why education is one of the most critical tools in saving lives. Geoffrey also discusses how addiction affects not just the individual, but entire family systems, often pulling loved ones into their own form of emotional dysregulation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of compassion without enabling, accountability without punishment, and support rooted in neuroscience rather than fear.Check out Geoffrey's First Episode:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeJN23-Gsx4#thehopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

In this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna sits down with psychologist and mental health leader Dr. Max Doshay to explore the identity shift that reshaped both his life and career. Max reflects on how losing a version of himself he once deeply identified with forced him to confront who he was beneath the roles, titles, and expectations he carried. What followed wasn't a straight path, but a series of pivots that led him toward leadership, purpose, and deeper self-awareness. Together, they talk about humility, ambition, and the tension between striving and staying grounded. Max shares what it's like to lead without ego, to build something meaningful without losing yourself in the process, and to remain open when life unfolds differently than planned. This conversation offers a thoughtful look at what can emerge when identity falls away — and something more honest takes its place.Dr. Max's Resources:WebsitesDrMaxDoshay.comMonima Wellness Center Element Q Healing Center Social MediaLinkedIn: Dr. Max DoshayLinkedIn: Monima Wellness CenterInstagram: @drmaxdoshayInstagram: @monimawellnessInstagram: @elementqhealingcenterFacebook: Monima Wellness CenterFacebook: Element Q Healing CenterBooksSecond Firsts by Christina RasmussenThe Road Less Traveled — M.

On this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna brings you another story from our special former participant series where she extends the opportunity for former participants to share their journey with others. Today's former participant is Jaysa Brown. In this episode, Jaysa reflects on entering the mental health system at a young age, navigating multiple treatment settings that didn't always help, and the deep resistance she felt toward trying yet another program. She shares how relocating to Colorado became a turning point, the role community and support played in her healing, and how redefining success has allowed her to build a life rooted in stability, purpose, and self-trust. Now working as a mentor within the same program that helped her turn her life around, Jaysa offers an honest perspective on recovery, family dynamics, and what sustainable progress can truly look like.NOTE: The podcasts in this series can include sensitive subjects such as suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, hospitalizations, psychotic episodes, and other traumatic experiences which include parts of the treatment journey.

In this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna sits down with author, advocate, and mother Stacy Ross, whose 28-year journey parenting a child with serious mental illness reshaped everything she thought she knew about success, family, and resilience. Stacy opens up about infertility, adoption, raising three children, navigating years of misdiagnoses, and ultimately learning how to parent through chaos, crisis, and transition.She shares how writing became her lifeline during the early days of COVID, how her memoir emerged from 200 raw pages written in solitude, and how she rebuilt her sense of self, purpose, and balance along the way. Stacy's story is honest, grounding, and deeply human — a reminder that success rarely follows the script we imagined, and that acceptance, boundaries, and connection can transform even the hardest chapters.Stacy's Resources: Website: https://stacyrossspeaks.com/Book: Searching for Slippers Book: Where Do the Waves Come From?

On this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna brings you another story from our special former participant series where she extends the opportunity for former participants to share their journey with others. Today's former participant is Chris Kelley. Chris shares his honest journey from growing up in Cape Cod's party culture, to court-ordered detox and time in county jail as a teenager, to finally entering long-term recovery at 29. Now 15 years sober and the Executive Director of Berkshire Transition Network, Chris talks with Joanna about the deeper emotional work behind recovery, the moment his “dam broke,” and how community, self-inquiry, and aligned purpose shaped the life he leads today. It's a grounded, thoughtful conversation about transformation, trauma, and what “the work” really looks like. Chris also reflects on how unlearning old patterns became just as essential as building new ones.NOTE: The podcasts in this series can include sensitive subjects such as suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, hospitalizations, psychotic episodes, and other traumatic experiences which include parts of the treatment journey.

On this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna brings you another story from our special former participant series where she extends the opportunity for former participants to share their journey with others. Today's former participant is Conor Gallagher Gray. Conor grew up on Chicago's North Shore with every advantage and a clear path laid out for him—until addiction, stigma, and a collapsing sense of identity sent his life on a drastically different trajectory. After multiple treatment stays, arrests, a suicide attempt, and years of relapse and rebuilding, Conor eventually found long-term sobriety and a renewed sense of purpose. His journey took him from high academic and athletic expectations to living in a basement storage room, navigating psych episodes, and surviving several near-fatal moments that forced him to confront the reality of where his life was headed. Today, Conor co-owns men's sober living homes in Los Angeles, where he channels his experience into community, accountability, and giving others the support he once needed. This conversation is honest, intense, and a powerful reminder that healing is rarely linear and purpose can grow from the most unexpected places.NOTE: The podcasts in this series can include sensitive subjects such as suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, hospitalizations, psychotic episodes, and other traumatic experiences which include parts of the treatment journey.

A talk and satsang at Cultural Integration Fellowship, San Francisco, California 2/4/2024 Sri Aurobindo introduces us to the idea that human civilization is undergoing a transformation based on the coming of a subjective age of humanity. When people hear about a “subjective age” they imagine many different things. Some believe that this represents a time when there is no objective standard of facts or truth, where each individual can create their own ‘alternative facts' through their own subjective sense, based on their opinions, without reference to any external standards. Does the coming of a subjective age imply that there are no longer ways to measure and distinguish any objective form of truth, or does Sri Aurobindo mean something entirely different. We see a breakdown in many institutions that have served humanity well through the industrial and post industrial age of development. Governments, corporations, religious institutions all are under tremendous stress as they reach their peak of power and control, and find that humanity is increasingly unwilling to accept the limitations they imply. What is causing this breakdown, and how can we meet the challenges that arise? Does the ‘subjective age' represent a new paradigm for societal interactions? On the level of individual consciousness, we see both an increasing willingness to break away from external authority and a corresponding increase of people who are fighting to enhance the power of external authority, whether it is in the field of governance or religion or business. How can we understand the forces driving these seemingly opposite reactions to the stress of the time of transformation. Major challenges confront all of humanity that threaten a mass extinction. Are these the result of imbalances caused by the existing order? Is the transformation of a subjective age addressing these issues? We have a considerable field of inquiry to explore as we try to understand what the coming of the subjective age means to us in our lives and in our worldVideo presentations, interviews and podcast episodes are allavailable on the YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@santoshkrinsky871More information about Sri Aurobindo can be found at www.aurobindo.net The US editions and links to e-book editions of SriAurobindo's writings can be found at Lotus Press www.lotuspress.com #spirituality #The Human Cycle #spiritual age #subjective age #Sri Aurobindo #evolution of consciousness Video presentations, interviews and podcast episodes are allavailable on the YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@santoshkrinsky871More information about Sri Aurobindo can be found at www.aurobindo.net The US editions and links to e-book editions of SriAurobindo's writings can be found at Lotus Press www.lotuspress.com

Today's Success is Subjective guest is Kathy Nauta. Kathy's path to becoming a therapeutic and educational consultant looks nothing like the straight line she once imagined for herself. Growing up in a family where work was purely about survival, Kathy pursued accounting solely for the promise of financial security—despite feeling out of place every step of the way. After years in corporate finance, multiple relocations, raising three kids, and supporting a child with higher needs, she slowly found her way into advocacy, special education work, and ultimately the consulting practice she runs today. In this conversation, Kathy reflects on how her definition of success shifted from money and titles to emotional well-being, meaningful work, and a balanced life. She talks candidly about the pressure young people feel, how overstimulating our world has become, and why parents must prioritize their child's social and emotional health over academic timelines. She also shares the personal experiences that shaped her approach with families — and the power of saying yes to new experiences as a way of truly getting to know yourself. This episode is especially resonant for parents of teens and young adults navigating uncertainty, as well as anyone who grew up believing that productivity equaled worth. Kathy's honesty, warmth, and decades of lived experience make this an episode full of grounded, relatable wisdom.Kathy's Resources: Kathy Nauta Educational Consulting Facebook: Kathy Nauta Educational Consulting IECA - Independent Educational Consultants Association New Jersey Children's System of Care (CSOC)NAMI COPAA - Council of Parent Attorneys and Advocates (SEAT Training) Connect with Joanna Lilley Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #EducationalConsultant #EducationalConsulting #MentalHealthAwareness #AnxiousGeneration

Growing up in Milwaukee, expectations were clear for Bix Firer: go straight to college and stay on a traditional path. He tried — and quickly learned it wasn't his path at all. After dropping out, Bix spent several years exploring unconventional jobs, traveling, and learning through lived experience rather than a classroom. Those detours became the foundation for discovering who he was and what he valued. In this episode of Success is Subjective, Bix shares how listening to his intuition — even when it meant starting over — eventually led him into outdoor education, meaningful community work, and a values-aligned career in conservation with the Ice Age Trail Alliance. His journey is a grounding reminder that success isn't measured by speed or status, but by alignment, joy, and how we show up for ourselves and others. If you or a young adult in your life is questioning “the expected path,” Bix's story offers reassurance that stepping off course may be the most important part of finding your way.

This week's Success is Subjective guest, Chrissy Nichols, spent more than two decades teaching before discovering her true calling—helping learners of all ages understand how their brains actually work. As an executive function coach, Chrissy specializes in guiding young adults (often returning from therapeutic or wilderness programs) to find balance, accountability, and self-trust through what she calls “love-hammer coaching”—a blend of compassion and tough honesty that empowers lasting change. In this conversation with Joanna Lilly, Chrissy shares how growing up with an undiagnosed ADHD brain led her to design her own hacks for organization and focus, eventually turning those same strategies into tools for others. She and Joanna explore what it means to un-shame the brain, why traditional “just try harder” messages fail, and how foundational routines—sleep, hydration, movement, fuel, and reflection—create the mental bandwidth needed to thrive.This episode is an encouraging reminder that success isn't about perfection or productivity—it's about connection, curiosity, and learning to meet yourself where you are.Chrissy's Resources: Chrissy's WebsiteComplementary ConsultationFacebook: The Chrissy ConceptConnect with Joanna Lilley Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #EmotionalHealing #AimHouse #TraumaRecovery #ExecutiveFunctioningSkills #TheChrissyConcept #BurnoutPrevention #MindBodyBalance

On this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna brings you another story from our special former participant series where she extends the opportunity for former participants to share their journey with others.Today, Joanna sits down with Nolan Wright. When Nolan left home to chase success, it didn't unfold the way anyone expected. What began as ambition quickly collided with addiction, loss, and a desperate search for direction. But somewhere between chaos and clarity, Nolan found a way to rebuild—starting with one decision that changed everything. Now years into recovery, Nolan leads two organizations rooted in connection, purpose, and service. In this conversation, he opens up about redefining success, why freedom matters more than status, and how community became the cornerstone of his healing. This episode is raw, grounded, and full of heart—a reminder that sometimes the hardest detours are the ones that lead us home.NOTE: The podcasts in this series can include sensitive subjects such as suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, hospitalizations, psychotic episodes, and other traumatic experiences which include parts of the treatment journey.

On this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna brings you another story from our special former participant series where she extends the opportunity for former participants to share their journey with others.Growing up in a small Arizona town, Alex Carey “had good grades and a ton of friends,” but by her mid-teens the party culture and a move to the Phoenix Valley accelerated risky choices that culminated in an adolescent placement at a residential treatment program—an experience she describes as shame-based and traumatizing, leaving her more wounded than helped. After returning home, Alex spiraled: a DUI at 17, mounting alcohol use, surgeries that introduced her to opioids, and several “summer vacation” trips to adult treatment that didn't stick because she was still performing rather than telling the truth. Everything changed in 2017—after a relapse, an overdose, and waking up from life support—when Alex walked into treatment committed to radical honesty about her pain and needs. That honesty became the turning point: she embraced recovery, rebuilt from nothing, and later sought deeper healing through intensive trauma work, including EMDR. Today, approaching eight years sober at the time of recording, Alex is a married mom to a two-year-old, a photographer at heart, and a treatment professional connecting people to trauma-informed care at Pinnacle Peak Recovery. In this conversation, she contrasts coercive adolescent models with adult treatment that respects autonomy, shares grounded advice for parents and inspires hope in young adults who fear treatment will always look like it did when they were kids. Alex's story is a testament to what becomes possible when recovery is honest, individualized, and trauma-informed.NOTE: The podcasts in this series can include sensitive subjects such as suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, hospitalizations, psychotic episodes, and other traumatic experiences which include parts of the treatment journey.

Shallow & Jiunta break down how to use training data to steer nutrition decisions rather than treating diet like a separate problem. They explore why structured diets (keto, vegan, carnivore,) actually work despite the internet arguing about them, as well as how psychological buy-in, age, physiological adaptability, and daily gym wins matter more than macros on paper.
