    Trigger Warning: This episode discusses suicide, grief, loss, and mental health struggles. If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please contact the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988) in the US or visit your local emergency room. Listen with care. What if the very thing you swore you'd never do became your biggest crutch? Gavin spent his childhood hating alcohol, watching it tear his family apart and promising he'd never touch it. But by his teens, he was drinking until sunrise, following the exact patterns he'd despised. Years later, married and successful, Gavin realized his wife deserved better—not because she complained, but because he knew deep down he wasn't showing up as his best self. When he began questioning how quitting drinking can improve a relationship, everything shifted. Through This Naked Mind, Gavin discovered he'd built an entire personality around alcohol, hiding his true introverted nature behind the need to be the "life of the party." In this episode, Gavin joins Annie to share how breaking generational drinking patterns allowed him to become the husband he always wanted to be. In this episode, Coach Cole and Gavin discuss: Growing up in a family where generational drinking was normalized Hating alcohol as a child but following the same patterns as a teen Building a people-pleasing personality that only existed with alcohol Discovering he was actually an introvert hiding behind drinking The moment he asked himself if he was being the best husband he could be How quitting drinking can improve a relationship and marriage Using 75 Hard as motivation to try sobriety How This Naked Mind equipped him with knowledge, not just conviction Wrestling with the question "What place does alcohol have in my life?" Learning that alcohol was contributing nothing positive The difference between feeling convicted and feeling equipped to change How supportive spouses can help without criticism or nagging Breaking family patterns to show up authentically in marriage And other topics… Episode links:Related Episodes: Breaking Family Alcohol Patterns - Janine's Naked Life - E 701 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-701-naked-life-story-janine-m/ Quitting Alcohol with 75 Hard- Michelle's Naked Life - E 671 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-671-naked-life-story-michelle-s/ Alcohol's Impact on Relationships- Coaching Questions - E 775 - https://thisnakedmind.com/the-missing-piece-with-paul-stacey-martino-e775/ Ready to take the next step on your journey?  Visit https://learn.thisnakedmind.com/podcast-resources for free resources, programs, and more.

    Ellen Greenberg Didn't Kill Herself — And This Hulu Doc Proves It She was 27. A beloved teacher. Engaged. Planning a future. And then, she was found on the kitchen floor with 20 stab wounds — including 10 in her back and neck — and a knife buried in her chest. The official ruling? Suicide. Now, more than a decade later, the new Hulu docuseries Death in Apartment 603 is turning that narrative inside out. And in this episode of Hidden Killers Live, we're breaking down exactly what it reveals — and why this case is unraveling in real time. The evidence? It's brutal, graphic, and impossible to ignore. We've got a 911 call where the fiancé preemptively blames Ellen before attempting CPR. A crime scene that was released and professionally cleaned within hours. Devices removed by a politically connected family member. And a death that was originally ruled a homicide by the medical examiner — until police pressured it into becoming a suicide. This isn't just about what happened in that apartment. It's about what happened after — how institutions failed, how truth got rewritten, and how a grieving family has spent 14 years screaming into a system that refused to listen. In this segment, we're not just reacting to the doc — we're pulling the threads that were buried for years. We're laying out the timeline, the autopsy contradictions, the mental health manipulation, and the bureaucratic blindfold that kept this case from ever being investigated as the homicide it clearly appeared to be. If you've followed the Ellen Greenberg case, this will make your blood boil. If you haven't — it's time you see what everyone's been trying to hide. This is what it looks like when the evidence screams… and no one listens. Sam Goldberg, Ellen Greenberg's fiancé at the time of her death, has never been charged with any crime in connection to this case. He has consistently maintained that Ellen's death was a suicide. All individuals mentioned in this segment are presumed innocent unless proven otherwise.

    Welcome back to Truth, Lies & Work, the award-winning podcast where behavioral science meets workplace culture. Hosted by Chartered Occupational Psychologist Leanne Elliott and business owner Al Elliott, this episode features Professors Ina Purvanova and Alanah Mitchell, authors of "The New Workplace" and experts who've spent years studying remote, hybrid, and in-office work arrangements. Episode Summary What if hybrid working isn't the best of both worlds, but actually the worst? Professors Ina Purvanova and Alanah Mitchell have mapped nine different work personas - from "officers" who never want to leave the office, to "avatars" who live entirely online, to "integrators" trying to bridge both worlds. Their research reveals that 65% of workers are now aligned with their company's workplace strategy, but that still leaves 35% struggling with misalignment that affects engagement, commitment, and ultimately performance. This conversation explores what happens when work personas collide, why hybrid can create more conflict than clarity, and how leaders can move their teams from misaligned to at least half-aligned without losing their best people. You'll hear heartbreaking stories of young workers describing themselves as "soulless husks" when forced to work remotely, and female executives who prefer office work for unexpected reasons. What We Cover The Nine Work Personas How people fall into categories like "officers," "avatars," and "integrators" based on their workplace preferences Why Hybrid Creates Conflict How hybrid workplaces can become battlegrounds between opposing preferences, with officers and avatars both wanting companies to go fully their way The Alignment Problem Why 65% alignment isn't enough and what happens to the misaligned 35% who stay in jobs that don't suit them Task-Location Fit Moving from "dress for your day" to "locate for your day" based on what tasks you need to accomplish Who Decides the Strategy Whether leaders should set workplace policies or listen to what teams actually want Personas Change Over Time How life stages, from early career to parenthood to late career, can shift your workplace preferences Recruitment Reality Why honest job previews about work arrangements are crucial for avoiding misalignment from day one The Future of Work Predictions for 2050 and why hybrid might win by default Resources The New Workplace book website: https://thenewworkplacebook.com/ Connect with Ina Purvanova on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ina-purvanova/ Connect with Alanah Mitchell on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alanah-mitchell/ Mental Health Support The episode discusses some difficult workplace experiences, including feelings of isolation, loneliness, and depression.

    The official narrative states that Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in August 2019, with the New York City Medical Examiner citing hanging as the cause of death. Authorities pointed to Epstein's earlier suicide attempt, his looming trial, and his isolation as supporting factors. Surveillance footage, though partially compromised, showed no outsiders entering the secure unit where Epstein was housed. The Department of Justice and FBI ultimately concluded there was no evidence of criminal activity, framing Epstein's death as the result of personal despair combined with catastrophic lapses in prison oversight.Yet, a powerful counter-narrative argues Epstein was murdered. Forensic anomalies, including neck fractures more common in strangulation than hanging, drew expert skepticism. Security protocols collapsed simultaneously: guards failed to check on him, cameras malfunctioned, his cellmate was removed, and excess bedding provided the means for ligatures. Combined with Epstein's alleged fears for his life, his ties to powerful figures, and the explosive release of documents naming high-profile associates just a day earlier, many see his death as too convenient to be coincidence. These factors have left the public divided, with compelling reasons to doubt the official suicide conclusion and to suspect Epstein's demise was the result of foul play.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

    Will Anyone Ever Be Charged in the Death of Ellen Greenberg? 20 stab wounds. A knife in her chest. Bruises in various stages of healing. The official ruling? Suicide.   Now, 14 years later, with a new Hulu documentary (Death in Apartment 603) and a court-ordered review underway, the question that refuses to go away is this: Will anyone ever be held accountable for Ellen Greenberg's death? In this special longform commentary, we cut through the noise and walk through the most disturbing, undeniable facts of this case—the forensic findings, investigative failures, and shifting stories that have led many to believe there's been a cover-up from the very beginning. Why did the medical examiner reverse a homicide ruling under police pressure? Why was the crime scene released for cleaning before a full forensic sweep? And why does Ellen's death certificate still say suicide, when even the original pathologist now says it shouldn't? We also ask the harder question: What's stopping prosecutors from filing charges, or even opening a formal investigation? From chain-of-custody issues with Ellen's electronics to conflicting elevator surveillance and 911 call timelines, this case isn't lacking in evidence—it's been drowning in it. What it's lacked is the institutional will to follow it. With the public demanding answers, Ellen's parents fighting through the courts, and the Hulu series putting the spotlight back where it belongs, we're at a pivotal moment. Will this be the turning point? Or will the system once again find a way to look away? Justice delayed doesn't have to be justice denied. But it will be—if no one acts.

    Izzy returns for a solo edition of Mental Man Monday, and this one pulls no punches. The episode begins by reflecting on last week's powerful conversation, “Is Ending Your Life Selfish?”, a follow-up to the original 2021 episode that many were too uncomfortable to face. But as Izzy explains, that silence is part of the problem. Men's mental health is often the most neglected when it's most needed — and this series refuses to let it stay in the shadows.From there, Izzy dives deep into cultural controversy, starting with Young Thug's bold new album released while behind bars and dressed in whiteface. The project sparked backlash for including the hard ER in the first track, followed by Young Thug claiming that “to go big, you have to be white.” Izzy breaks down the deeper meaning behind the outrage, what it says about the entertainment industry, and dares to ask the rawest question of all: What would Jesus do in this situation? Then the episode takes a sharp turn into conspiracy culture with Donald Trump reposting — then deleting a video about so-called “med beds” that supposedly heal disease and regrow limbs. What started as a fringe theory suddenly garnered presidential attention, and Izzy unpacks what it reveals about trust, belief, and the blurring of the line between politics, pseudoscience, and desperation in today's culture.This livestream blends cultural commentary with emotional honesty, serving up a raw and thought-provoking experience for young Black men, men of faith, and anyone navigating the blurred lines between identity, masculinity, mental health, and social pressure.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/p-s-a-the-mental-health-podcast--5520511/support.TrustBuilder Package

As rumors snowball (including an alleged affair), timelines shift, pressure mounts, and within eight days Judith dies by suicide—before any arrest is made.

    Today's interview is Part 2 of a discussion of an impossibly difficult topic – losing a child to suicide. September marks National Suicide Prevention Month, and Lisa continues the conversation today with Betsy Thibaut Stephenson who discusses the many layers of moving forward after losing a child. She shares how her 21-year-old son Charlie called her just 11 weeks before he took his own life. There were no warning signs prior to that. Betsy shares her story and feedback she is receiving about her honesty. She talks about her son's death to make it easier for others to talk about this subject, including the immense grief and painful guilt. She has received messages from younger people who want to heal, even in the midst of difficulties and struggle. She is asking people to treat depression as an illness. It is powerful and has many different parts. She does not get mad at her son but gets very angry at the illness for the affect it has on so many. Betsy reminds us that it's fine to not be happy all the time. If you are not feeling good, she asks us to talk to someone, whether it's a parent, friend, teacher, coach, or a professional. Reach out and know that help is available. Trust helps with healing and recovery. She openly talks about going to therapy and how depression is so powerful. It can override our basic, innate power to survive. You cannot reason with a mental illness. She asks us to take it very seriously. Betsy is a veteran crisis communications expert based in Washington, DC. Rather than being consumed by grief, Betsy chose to meet it head-on, emerging with a mission to spark more honest conversations around mental health, grief, and loss.  Her new memoir, “Blackbird: A Mother's Reflections on Grief, Loss, and Life After Suicide” is a brutally honest and beautifully written account of how she continues living—and loving—after the worst kind of loss. It's a story meant to help others feel less alone.  Info: www.blackbirdbetsy.com This is Part 2 of the interview. If you or a loved one is experiencing thoughts of suicide, self-harm, or crisis, pls CALL OR TEXT 988.

    At The Red Eye, we tell true stories from the skies and the ground. They're funny, heartbreaking, and sometimes downright shocking - but today's story is different. It isn't just about a dramatic in-flight medical emergency. It's about the emotional toll it left behind, and what happens when the strength we've relied on for so long suddenly cracks.The crew member who donated this story, a seasoned flight attendant and cancer survivor, has weathered countless red-eyes. But when a passenger collapsed mid-flight on her London–Nigeria route, she found herself alone in the galley, protecting the cockpit, caring for an unwell passenger, and carrying the impossible weight of life-or-death decisions she wasn't trained to make.The real turbulence came later, alone in a hotel room far from home. For crew, the unspoken rule is simple: smile, stay composed, and leave your problems at the door. But the truth is that behind the uniform, flight attendants carry the same struggles as anyone else - grief, illness, financial stress, loneliness. And sometimes, the pause button we press during service can't hold it all back.This episode sheds light on the hidden mental health struggles faced by aviation professionals and reminds us that no one, no matter how strong, is immune to reaching their limit. It's a story about resilience, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to finally say, “I'm not okay.”Resources & HelplinesIf you or someone you know is struggling, please know that support is available:U.S. — 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: Call or text 988 anytime, day or nightUK — Samaritans: Dial 116 123 for freeAustralia — Lifeline: Dial 13 11 14India — AASRA: +91-98204 66726SSend us a text!

    What if the secret to treating age-related diseases and extending healthy lifespan lies within tiny cellular structures that evolved from ancient bacteria? In this mind-expanding conversation, biochemist Dr. Natalie Yivgi-Ohana reveals how mitochondria—far more than mere cellular powerhouses—control everything from hormone production to programmed cell death.Dr. Yivgi-Ohana, founder of Minovia Therapeutics, takes us on a fascinating journey through mitochondrial science, explaining how these organelles became integrated into our cells over evolutionary history. "Mitochondria used to be bacteria that entered into the cell and formed this symbiosis," she explains, describing how this evolutionary leap enabled life to thrive in oxygen-rich environments. This bacterial heritage gives mitochondria unique properties, including their own DNA separate from our nuclear genome, which makes them both vulnerable to damage and potentially replaceable.The revolutionary approach Minovia has pioneered involves harvesting a patient's own stem cells, enriching them with young, healthy mitochondria from donor sources like placentas, and returning these energized cells to the patient. Unlike direct mitochondrial infusions, which pose risks of immune rejection, this method has shown remarkable safety and efficacy in clinical trials for both rare pediatric diseases and age-related conditions. "Seeing a child six and a half years old in a baby stroller and then two months later he's running in a shopping mall—it's unbelievable to see the impact," Dr. Yivgi-Ohana shares.Perhaps most surprising is the current lack of clinical testing for mitochondrial function, despite its crucial role in health. "The strongest signal for health is how well mitochondria are doing," Dr. Yivgi-Ohana emphasizes, predicting that within a decade, mitochondrial function testing will become as routine as checking hemoglobin levels. This could transform preventive medicine by identifying mitochondrial dysfunction before symptoms appear.Explore this frontier of cellular medicine that targets both mitochondrial and immune dysfunction—two major hallmarks of aging—simultaneously. Could rejuvenating our cellular batteries be the key to extending healthy lifespan? Listen now to discover how mitochondrial science is revolutionizing our understanding of aging and disease.https://minoviatx.com/Lies I Taught In Medical School : Free sample chapter- https://www.robertlufkinmd.com/lies/Complete Metabolic Heart Scan (LUFKIN20 for 20% off) https://www.innerscopic.com/Fasting Mimicking Diet (20% off) https://prolonlife.com/Lufkin At home blood testing (20% off) https://siphoxhealth.com/lufkinMimio Health (LUFKIN for 15% off) https://mimiohealth.sjv.io/c/5810114/2745519/30611 Web: https://robertlufkinmd.com/X: https://x.com/robertlufkinmdYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/robertLufkinmdInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/robertlufkinmd/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertlufkinmd/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@robertlufkinThreads: https://www.threads.net/@robertlufkinmdFacebook: ...

    Men today are facing a silent crisis. Suicide rates are climbing, loneliness is at epidemic levels, and society continues to confuse men about what it truly means to be masculine. In this powerful conversation, Coach Frank sits down with men's life coach and Groups for Men co-founder McKenzie Beeby to unpack the cultural forces at play, the hidden dangers of Nice Guy Syndrome, and the tools men need to reclaim their strength, purpose, and faith.   Together, Frank and McKenzie explore the historical roots of the men's crisis, the role of shame and ego, and how distorted views of masculinity fuel brokenness in men's lives. They highlight the importance of community, vulnerability, and brotherhood and provide a roadmap for men who are ready to stop hiding and start living the life they were created for.   About McKenzie Beeby McKenzie Beeby is a life coach for men, speaker, writer, and co-founder of Groups for Men, one of the largest online support communities for men in the U.S. With a background as an entrepreneur, business owner, filmmaker, and mentor, McKenzie has dedicated his life to helping men overcome destructive cultural narratives about masculinity. His mission is to equip men to step into lives of strength, compassion, and integrity by breaking free from Nice Guy Syndrome, healing past wounds, and cultivating brotherhood.     Expect to Learn Why men today are facing the greatest identity crisis in history   The hidden costs of Nice Guy Syndrome — and how it sabotages marriages, careers, and faith How shame and ego create toxic patterns in men's lives The influence of media and cultural narratives on masculinity Why loneliness and isolation fuel addiction, anger, and despair Simple tools men can use to communicate better and live with integrity How vulnerability and brotherhood create true masculine strength The role of faith in helping men reclaim purpose and freedom Why defining success on your terms is key to becoming the man you were created to be   Key Takeaways Men are struggling with rising suicide rates and epidemic loneliness. The men's crisis has historical roots dating back to post–World War II cultural shifts. Success must be clearly defined in today's confused world. Toxic masculinity is often just shame in disguise. Brotherhood and community are non-negotiable for men's growth. Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness.

    Have you ever drawn a blank when asked how you're feeling? Or maybe you experience constant inner buzzing, numbness, or anxiety without any words to describe it. You're not broken—and you're not alone. In this deeply informative and compassionately nuanced episode, Jennifer, Elizabeth, and guest Matt Bush unpack alexithymia: a common and often misunderstood trauma-related trait that involves difficulty identifying, describing, or connecting with emotions. More than emotional “numbness,” alexithymia involves disrupted communication between the body and brain, making healing feel elusive. The hosts break down the neurological roots of this trait, how it differs from emotional numbing in PTSD, and why traditional talk therapy often isn't enough. You'll learn how interoceptive training—like what's taught in NeuroSomatic Intelligence (NSI)—can help bring emotional awareness back online. Whether you're a practitioner, trauma survivor, or someone just feeling disconnected, this conversation offers hope and concrete tools to rewire the nervous system for emotional clarity, embodiment, and relational healing. Timestamps: 0:43 – What Is Alexithymia? 3:00 – Why It's Common After Trauma 4:40 – The TAS-20 Scale: 3 Key Features 7:00 – Lived Experience + Relationship Impact 10:00 – Alexithymia vs. Emotional Numbing 14:40 – Trauma's Impact on Emotional Mapping 17:00 – Neurological Underpinnings (Insula, DMN, etc.) 20:00 – Substance Use, Shutdowns & Coping 26:00 – Functional Freeze & Stress Sensitivity 30:00 – How Neuroplasticity Supports Change 33:00 – NSI Tools for Rewiring Emotional Awareness 36:00 – Practical Steps to Start Feeling More 40:00 – Emotional Expression, Relationships & Health Outcomes Key Takeaways: Alexithymia is not a disorder but a trainable trait, often shaped by trauma and nervous system adaptations. Traditional talk therapy may not fully address alexithymia due to its neurological roots—interoceptive training is key. It differs from emotional numbing in PTSD; each involves distinct brain networks (e.g., DMN vs. salience network). Emotional awareness isn't just about language—it starts with sensing the body. Healing emotional disconnect can improve not just mental health, but physical health and relational dynamics.
