Podcasts about symptoms

Hey Heal Squad! We are back with Jeannie Mai and this time things get peri-personal…see what we did there? But seriously…if you've ever wanted someone to break down perimenopause in the simplest, most honest way, this episode is for you. Jeannie opens up to Maria about the moment she realized something was changing in her body. Things like disrupted sleep, forgetfulness. brain fog and dips in confidence. She shares how confusing the symptoms can feel and why so many women end up misdiagnosed when hormones are actually the root cause. We also talk about Jeannie's new docu-series Balance on Apple TV and how it's helping lift the lid on what women really need to know about perimenopause. She also shares where she stands on dating right now and what she hopes men will understand about what women are going through during perimenopause. If you're a woman in your 30s, 40s, or beyond ….or you just want to better understand what the women in your life may be experiencing… this is one conversation you definitely don't want to miss. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Perimenopause symptoms are often misunderstood: Things like brain fog, insomnia, forgetfulness, mood changes, and confidence dips can all be linked to hormonal shifts. Many women are misdiagnosed instead of having their hormones evaluated: Symptoms are sometimes labeled as depression or anxiety when the root issue may actually be hormonal imbalance. Education around hormones is empowering: Understanding options like HRT & watching a docu-series like Balance on Apple TV can help women navigate this phase with more clarity.

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

Are you running your agency but feeling the weight of exhaustion creeping in, even when you love what you do? Burnout among agency owners is often misunderstood as a simple consequence of working too hard. In this episode of The Agency Blueprint podcast, I explain the real cause of burnout for agency owners and why it's less about ambition and workload and more about how you're spending your energy. I also explain how aligning your work with your passion can make your agency not only more profitable but also sustainable, while giving you back energy and joy.

5 Hidden Parasite Symptoms Doctors Miss | Podcast #472

Exciting news - pre-order my debut book https://linktr.ee/HealthySBTH?utm_source=linktree_profile_shareThis week on Live Well Be Well, I'm joined by the extraordinary Dr. Nighat Arif, NHS GP, women's health advocate, author of The Knowledge and the brand new The Family Health Bible, and one of the most courageous voices in medicine today. Dr. Nighat has spent nearly two decades in the NHS holding space for the women the system has failed and she's built an online community of millions by doing exactly what she does in her surgery: speaking honestly, clearly, and without shame about the things nobody else will say.Here's What We Dive Into:- How a dare from Dr. Nighat's sister during lockdown sparked a global conversation about vaginal dryness and why she chose to begin it in Punjabi.- Why perimenopause can begin as early as 38 to 40, and what the research says about Black and Asian women going through this transition two to five years earlier than average.- How medical gaslighting and medical misogyny show up in real consultations including Dr. Nighat's own experiences of being dismissed as a patient, both for PCOS and for lichen sclerosis.- Why Dr. Nighat now recommends that women start moisturising their vulva and vagina from the age of 20, and which ingredients to avoid.- How the vaginal ring works, why it's barely spoken about, and why the seven-day pill break has more to do with the Pope than with medicine.- Why Trump's defunding of women's health research and the framing of female bodies as a "business opportunity" is one of the most urgent issues facing medicine right now.Love,Sarah Ann

A blockbuster day of political, electoral, and global revelations. The Trump FBI has obtained terabytes of Arizona voter records from 2020 and 2024, sparking a firestorm in the media. Meanwhile, Trump declassifies his reasoning behind strikes on Iran, tying decades of policy missteps back to Obama's administration. And in a surprising domestic health alert, millennial men are facing a low testosterone crisis, with effects on libido, muscle mass, and fertility unseen in prior generations. SUMMARY Today's show covers three major stories shaking America: Arizona Voter Rolls Seized The Trump FBI, via a secret grand jury subpoena, has obtained electronic voter registration and election data from Maricopa County. Democrats and media outlets have reacted with outrage, calling it a "privacy violation," though legal experts note it was conducted under proper legal authority. Congressional observers report alarming ballot handling in 2024: mail-in ballots were stored with blanks in unsecured facilities, violating chain-of-custody laws. The fight over the SAFE Act intensifies as Republican leaders John Thune and Mitch McConnell continue to block full transparency efforts, citing procedural concerns. Trump on Iran & Obama-era Policies Trump publicly explains why decisive strikes against Iran's nuclear and missile programs were necessary. He links the current conflict to policies under former President Obama, which allowed Iran to develop long-range missiles and expand nuclear capabilities. Trump argues the destruction is necessary to prevent a future Democratic administration from facing an empowered Iran, warning of “ten years of destruction” to reset their capabilities. Millennial Men's Health Crisis Doctors report alarming declines in free testosterone among men in their 30s and 40s. Symptoms include low libido, erectile dysfunction, early prostate issues, and reduced muscle mass. Causes are linked to environmental chemicals, ultra-processed foods, and endocrine disruptors, often invisible in standard lab tests.

In this episode of SHE MD, Mary Alice Haney and Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi sit down with Dr. Steven Storage to unpack one of the most common mental health misdiagnoses affecting women today: ADHD being mistaken for anxiety or depression. Dr. Storage explains why ADHD is often overlooked in girls and women, and how many patients spend years being treated for anxiety before discovering the real cause of their symptoms.The conversation explores how ADHD can present differently in women, including emotional overwhelm, chronic stress, brain fog, and difficulty focusing. Dr. Storage also discusses the role of brain imaging in ADHD diagnosis and how different brain patterns may require different treatment approaches, highlighting why traditional symptom checklists often miss the full picture.They also discuss how hormonal changes, especially during perimenopause, can intensify ADHD symptoms, which is why many women first seek answers later in life. This episode sheds light on the importance of accurate diagnosis and brain-based approaches to better support women navigating ADHD.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PCOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

Natasha explains the five biological laws that govern the relationship between the psyche, brain, and body, emphasizing the importance of recognizing the meaning behind symptoms. The conversation also explores the role of microbes in healing, the significance of understanding symptoms as meaningful adaptations, and how parents can apply these principles to support their children's health. Natasha shares resources for further learning and encourages listeners to build a connection with their own biology.Takeaways:German New Medicine is a biological framework connecting psyche and body.The five biological laws explain how conflicts manifest as symptoms.Every symptom is a result of a conflict shock.Microbes play a supportive role in the healing process.Understanding symptoms can help in emotional regulation.Parents can apply GNM principles to support their children's health.The relationship with one's mother is crucial for healing.Biology is accessible to everyone, regardless of education.Symptoms are meaningful adaptations, not random occurrences.Building a connection with one's own biology is essential for health.Chapters00:00 Introduction to German New Medicine06:49 Understanding the Five Biological Laws22:25 The Role of Microbes in Healing26:19 Symbiotic Relationships with Nature28:47 Understanding Biological Laws and Healing30:42 The Quintessence: Meaning in Symptoms37:34 Supporting Children Through Healing Phases49:41 Resources for Further LearningFollow us on IG @Bornwildpodcast Connect with our guest, Natasha Nazerali Natasha Nazerali is a German New Medicine practitioner and educator who guides individuals to awaken their primal nature through biological awareness.

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, you'll discover why PCOS symptoms rarely appear in isolation, and how recognizing symptom clusters can help you better understand your hormonal health. From cycle irregularity and fatigue to cravings, inflammation, and mood changes, these symptoms often show up together, forming patterns that hold powerful insights into your root cause.PCOS Symptoms Aren't IsolatedIn this episode you'll learn why it's common to experience multiple symptoms at once, like weight gain with fertility challenges or acne with low energy. These groupings aren't random. They're interconnected signals that your body is responding to deeper hormonal imbalances and environmental stressors. Understanding these connections is the key to cutting through the confusion and frustration of PCOS.Your Body Is Always CommunicatingThis episode explores how PCOS symptoms, whether it's bloating, hair loss, joint pain, or cravings, are your body's way of adapting to internal and external stress. Rather than viewing each issue separately, you'll gain clarity on how symptoms ripple across your body, influenced by factors like insulin resistance, cortisol levels, inflammation, and nutrient depletion.Common PCOS Symptom Loops and What They MeanThrough real-life examples, you'll hear how symptom clusters can reveal underlying patterns. Whether it's anxiety and cycle disruption during stress, or joint pain and fatigue after eating, these aren't just unfortunate coincidences, they're meaningful signs of what your body needs. You'll walk away with a fresh perspective on how to decode these loops and start responding with personalized care.The Power of a Root Cause ApproachWhen symptoms are treated individually, results are often temporary or incomplete. In this episode, you'll discover why zooming out and identifying your primary root cause, such as insulin imbalance, stress response, inflammation, or hormone and nutrient disruption, is essential to long-term healing. You'll learn how to shift from chasing symptoms to supporting your body holistically.Take the First Step Toward ClarityTo help you start identifying your own symptom patterns, this episode introduces the PCOS Root Cause Quiz, a free resource designed to help you connect the dots between your symptoms and underlying imbalances.

If taking a supplement was the magic fix for PMS, wouldn't we all be feeling amazing by now, right?In this episode, I'm breaking down PMS in a straightforward way. Not every change before your period is a problem. Some shifts in mood, energy, or appetite are completely normal. But there's also a point where PMS becomes your body's way of saying something deeper is off.The real issue often isn't just your hormones. It's all about looking at the bigger picture of what your brain and body are experiencing every day. When your system is constantly stressed, depleted, or unsafe, maintaining hormonal balance becomes much harder.You'll learn:What mild PMS looks like when hormones are functioning well Symptoms that indicate deeper stress or imbalance How stabilizing minerals and blood sugar can be more effective than random supplementsOne of my favorite moments recently was a client telling me that her kids said, “Mom, you're being silly again, like you used to.”That's the real goal. Not just fewer symptoms, but feeling like yourself again - laughing more, having the energy and patience for your family, and moving through your cycle without just trying to survive half the month.The good news is that these changes often start with much simpler steps than most women expect.

This episode invites listeners into a grounded, embodied understanding of awakening bringing consciousness home from the abstract and anchoring it in lived human experience. Rather than seeking enlightenment outside ourselves, Laurie explores how awareness lives within the body: in our cells, breath, emotions, thoughts, spirit, and energy field. She introduces the Five Fields of Human Consciousness physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and the Third Field and shows how awakening unfolds through each layer as an intimate, internal process woven into everyday life.Listeners are guided through how consciousness expresses itself through sensation, emotion, perception, intuition, and energy, and why true awakening requires embodiment rather than escape. Symptoms, emotions, and life challenges are reframed not as problems to fix, but as messages from consciousness itself inviting deeper listening, integration, and presence. Awakening is presented not as a single moment, but as an ongoing dialogue between our inner worlds.Laurie also explores how life itself initiates consciousness through experiences such as illness, relationships, loss, identity shifts, and major transitions. These moments, often experienced as chaos or breakdown, are revealed as powerful initiations that dismantle old identities and awaken deeper alignment with the soul. At the heart of the episode is a profound reminder: consciousness is not somewhere else it is here, now, unfolding through your body, your choices, and your willingness to return to yourself.Send a textSupport the showThanks for listening - For questions or comments email Laurie at Laurie@yourlifecore.comInstagram @yourlifecore or Twitter @yourlifecore Facebook https://www.facebook.com/YourLifecoreWebsite www.yourlifecore.com

In this episode of Thriving in Tandem™, Robert and Kay Lee unpack three of the most common reasons businesses struggle — drawn from their own entrepreneurial journey, client experience, and research from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. If you're a married entrepreneur feeling financial pressure or team tension, this conversation will hit home. 1. Cash Flow Problems (Not a Sales Problem) Contrary to popular belief, most struggling businesses don't fail because of poor marketing or low sales. They fail because of cash flow mismanagement. The Chamber of Commerce research highlights: Cash flow issues Lack of capital Poor management Human capital challenges Notice what's missing? Marketing and sales. Profit Doesn't Equal Cash Many business owners rely solely on their Profit & Loss statement. The problem? Most P&Ls are set up on an accrual basis, meaning revenue is recorded when invoiced — not when cash hits your bank account. You might show: $100,000 in revenue $15,000 in profit But still feel broke. Why? Because: Clients haven't paid yet (accounts receivable lag) You're paying down loans or credit cards (liabilities don't show on P&L) Merchant fees and interest are draining cash You're behind on invoicing The Danger of "Let's Just Increase Sales" Growing sales without fixing cash flow can actually accelerate failure. If: You must pay for materials upfront You don't get paid until delivery You rely on lines of credit to float expenses Then doubling sales can double your cash stress. Before scaling, make sure your cash systems can sustain growth. Action Step: Review your P&L, cash flow statement, and balance sheet together — not in isolation. If this isn't your strength, bring in a qualified financial advisor who understands small business cash flow, not just bookkeeping. 2. Lack of Capital (Often a Symptom, Not the Root Cause) Running out of money is usually the result of poor cash flow management. Many businesses don't collapse because demand disappears. They collapse because: They underestimated startup costs They overspent during growth They relied too heavily on debt They didn't manage receivables aggressively At the end of the day, businesses fail when they run out of cash — not necessarily customers. 3. Human Capital Challenges (Hiring, Training, Retention) The third major struggle? People. Common issues include: Difficulty finding quality team members High turnover Weak onboarding Lack of ongoing development Start with Smart Hiring Consider: Contract-to-hire models 90-day trial periods Clear role definitions and performance metrics This reduces risk and gives both sides time to evaluate fit. Training Is Not One-and-Done Initial onboarding isn't enough. The first year is critical.  Even experienced hires require: Clear expectations Regular feedback Continued development Intentional culture building Hiring and firing repeatedly is expensive — financially and emotionally. Investing in people development is not optional if you want sustainable growth. The Bigger Picture Most business struggles boil down to: Poor cash flow management Running out of capital Weak people systems And here's the reality for married entrepreneurs: When business stress rises, it spills into your marriage. That's why mastering financial systems and building a healthy team isn't just about profit — it's about protecting your home life.

What drives someone to leave a successful 15-year law enforcement career to tackle one of the most challenging problems facing first responders? In this episode, Cam and Otis sit down with Joe Smarro, a decorated Marine Corps combat veteran, former San Antonio Police officer, and founder of SolutionPoint+, who's on a mission to eradicate suicide among first responders."Misery was the catalyst," Joe explains candidly about his transition from police work to entrepreneurship. As one of the original members of the SAPD Mental Health Unit—featured in the Emmy award-winning documentary "Ernie & Joe: Crisis Cops"—Joe shares powerful insights about trauma, PTSD, and the surprising overlap between the symptoms of post-traumatic stress and entrepreneurship.From discussing how "all behavior is communication" to revealing why he turned to business the way others turn to alcohol, this conversation explores the intersection of mental health, leadership, and purpose-driven work. Joe's approach to de-escalating mental health crises and his framework for understanding human behavior offer valuable lessons for anyone leading teams or navigating their own challenges.Whether you're a first responder, an entrepreneur dealing with the obsessive nature of building a business, or a leader seeking to better understand the people you serve, Joe's journey from battlefield to advocate provides a roadmap for turning trauma into meaningful impact.More About Joe:Joe is a decorated combat veteran from the United States Marine Corps. He honorably served in both Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. After completing his enlistment, he moved to South Texas, where he joined the San Antonio Police Department (2005). Joe was one of the original members of the SAPD Mental Health Unit and helped grow that unit into a nationally recognized best-practices policing program. Joe served on the SAPD MHU for 11 years.In 2018, he gave a TEDx San Antonio talk titled: I See You. He has been highlighted in numerous media outlets and documentaries. Most notably, he is one of the main subjects in the Emmy award-winning documentary: Ernie & Joe: Crisis Cops. Joe is an alum of the Entrepreneurial Bootcamp for Veterans (EBV) at Texas A&M (2016). Once he completed his certification, he founded SolutionPoint+ in 2017 & is the current CEO.Joe voluntarily left the San Antonio Police Department in 2020 to focus on making changes within the behavioral health and criminal justice systems around the country. His big, hairy, audacious goal is to eradicate suicide among all first responders, starting in law enforcement. When Joe is not speaking, training, consulting, or working on his next book, he will most likely be found on a golf course.Chapter Times and Titles:Introduction: The Hard Ground and Harder Problems [00:00 - 04:19]Welcome and the ranch soil sagaMeet Joe Smarro: Marine, cop, entrepreneurSetting the stage for a conversation about trauma and purpose"Misery Was the Catalyst" [04:19 - 12:30]Why Joe left law enforcement after 15 yearsThe transition from being part of a team to going soloFinding purpose beyond the uniformAll Behavior Is Communication [12:30 - 24:45]The foundational principle of Joe's workUnderstanding what people are really saying through their actionsDe-escalating mental health crises with empathyThe SAPD Mental Health Unit Story [24:45 - 32:17]Building a nationally recognized best-practices programLessons from "Ernie & Joe: Crisis Cops"The TEDx talk: "I See You."PTSD and Entrepreneurship: The Unexpected Overlap [32:17 - 43:05]Symptoms of PTSD vs. symptoms of entrepreneurshipBob Parsons' story: turning to business instead of alcoholThe obsessive nature of building something meaningfulWhy avoidance and thrill-seeking show up in both

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Sheena: Hi Dr C! Hope you and your team are well. I'm 45 yo and currently on low dose birth control pill to help control the severe perimenopause symptoms I was experiencing. It has REALLY helped which I am thankful for. Obviously I know I cant be on it forever, but the thought of going off and going through all the symptoms is so scary to me. I also know being on the BCP will mask when I'm actually in menopause. Do you have a suggestion as to how I can find out? Is it possible to figure out while on the pill? As instructed by my endocrinologist, I take the pill for 42 day straight, stop for 4 and start again. Could I test my fsh during that 4      Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral - I'm hoping you can help me. I keep hearing people say organic doesn't really matter because they're still able to spray the produce with some level of herbicides. Can you help me understand what they could be talking about and confirm that organic is definitely better/ worth the cost? Thanks for all you do!      Sierra: Hello Dr. Cabral. My father and four of his kids have chronically low Alk Phos. We have tried supplementing (Zinc, mag, Vit C, DNS, Omegas, etc) for years without any improvement. We are leaning into thinking its a genetic issue (hypophosphotasia). My father has had significant blood calcification, bow legged, bad teeth. Do you have any knowledge on genetically low alk phos, and how to increase our levels or adjust nutrients to help offset issues from low levels of alkphos? We do live fairly healthy, active lives. We do qtrly detoxes, we work to empty our "rain barrel", but is there any other advice you can give us? We would love to figure out how to navigate this. Thank you! day break and be able to tell? Hope this makes sense. Looking forward to your suggestion. Thanks!      Adam: Hello, I've noticed during the winter months, I get more symptoms, especially thyroid related issues (dry skin, cold extremities). During the summer, these are substantially less pronounced. I've ran the Stress Mood and Metabolism test (during FEBruary), TSH 2.5, Free T3-3.8, Free T4-1.5, normal cortisol all day, low DHEAS, but are there any specific interventions I can do during the winter months to support my body? Warmer denser foods, different types of exercises, certain supplements etc? Thank you.        Desiree: Hi Dr. Cabral, My husband and I are planning to start trying for a baby this June. We are prepping starting now with 3 week detox, followed by heavy metal and parasite detoxes. I will follow that with 3 months of prenatal vitamins. Are there any male specific supplements that improve sperm health and male fertility? Like prenatal supplements but for men.

From Hahnemann's original insights to the realities of modern practice, research, and education, Denise and Alastair bring over 50 years of experience to conversations that challenge assumptions and invite curiosity.

This inaugural episode of the CardioNerds Pulmonary Embolism (PE) Series explores the evolution of acute PE care. Dr. Ibrahim Zahid, Dr. Dinu Balanescu, and Dr. Billy Joe Mullinax join guest expert Dr. Kenneth Rosenfield to discuss the shifting landscape of PE management. Pulmonary embolism (PE) remains a leading cause of cardiovascular mortality and a frequent diagnostic challenge, often masquerading as myocardial infarction or a benign illness. Over the past decade, PE care has evolved from anticoagulation-only strategies to nuanced, risk-stratified, multidisciplinary management. Modern approaches integrate hemodynamics, biomarkers, and advanced imaging to guide therapy, including catheter-directed interventions and large-bore thrombectomy. The Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT) model addresses historical gaps by coordinating rapid, multispecialty decision-making and standardizing care pathways. The PERT Consortium further advances PE care through education, research, and the world's largest PE registry, while fostering leadership and research opportunities for trainees. Despite advances, long-term outcomes and post-PE syndromes remain important areas for future investigation. Audio editing by CardioNerds Academy intern, student doctor, Pace Wetstein.

Pearls PE is a “master masquerader”—maintain suspicion for atypical presentations like myocardial infarction, heart failure, flu, or anxiety. Multidisciplinary management mediated through pulmonary embolism response teams improves outcomes and standardizes care. Risk stratification integrates hemodynamics, biomarkers, and imaging. Advanced therapies have expanded beyond anticoagulation. Long‑term follow‑up and post‑PE syndrome need more research. Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Ibrahim Zahid. 1. How has the clinical approach to PE changed over the past decade? PE is the third leading cause of cardiovascular death and historically under‑recognized. Symptoms mimic MI, HF, asthma, syncope, and more.PE is a silent killer, and it should be recognized more as a cause of spontaneous cardiac arrest. Where life threatening disease like stroke which is owned by neurological specialists and MI is primarily managed by cardiac specialists, PE is an entity without a professional home. The PERT Consortium brings the specialties together for PE care. 2. Ten years ago, a 58-year-old patient with a large bilateral PE, RV dilation, and positive biomarkers might have been managed with anticoagulation and close observation alone. Today, with evolving—but still uneven—data on advanced therapies, PE care feels far more nuanced and highly dependent on where you practice. What are the major gaps in traditional PE management that clinicians should recognize, and what care pathways should they be aware of across different hospital systems? Care has shifted from anticoagulation‑only to multidisciplinary approaches like catheter directed thrombectomy. Risk‑based pathways and the use of CT angiogram has improved early recognition. Risk stratification tools must be used as tools for early recognition of intermediate risk PE. Untreated PE leads to chronic complications like chronic thromboembolic disease and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, which requires long term clinic follow up. 3. What is the role of risk stratification tools such as PeSI, sPeSI scores, cardiac biomarkers, and imaging findings in PE, and how do they guide treatment decisions in real world practice? Integrate vitals (blood pressure and heart rate), biomarkers (troponin, pro-BNP), RV/LV ratio assessment, acid‑base status, and scores. Tools include PESI, sPESI, BOVA, HESTIA, FAST, Geneva, NEWS, shock index. Vitals, lactate, acid-base status, and tools like NEWS or shock index track clinical evolution. PESI/sPESI estimate 30-day mortality and help identify low-risk patients who may be candidates for early discharge or outpatient therapy. Clinical judgment matters—scores don't fully capture clot burden, trajectory, or bleeding risk. 4. How was the pulmonary embolism response team created, and since its creation, what evidence or outcome data became available to support the PERT model? Originated after a sentinel case at MGH: A young, pregnant woman in her 30s, who collapsed at home, underwent thrombectomy, and had to be on ECMO for a few days. The case brought cardiology, cardiac surgeons and critical care physicians together for planning and improvement in her health, which was rewarding. Thereby, it was decided to bring specialties involved in PE care together to create a response team. The name of the team, Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT), was coined by Richard Channick in the first meeting. Posters were set up all over the hospital to call a centralized line when an acute PE is recognized A meeting was held to present the concept of putting together a consortium, with development of action items and a PERT database. Enabled rapid multidisciplinary input using early teleconferencing tools. 5. Given concerns about having too many ‘cooks in the kitchen' during the initial PE call—especially with rotating teams—how can institutions reconcile workflow complexity with standardized pathways in a way that meaningfully supports and justifies the added burden on frontline clinicians? Every hospital's PERT is different, catering to their needs and workflow At least two disciplines are needed to make a PERTData is currently being collected to guide further on how the workflow can be standardized Most importantly, the team brings in resources that were not available prior to PERT formation. 6. What are the main goals of the PERT consortium, and how does it support clinicians and institutions involved? To improve care and improve outcomes for patients with PE Expand education, refine algorithms, standardize care with Centers of Excellence. Maintain the largest PE registry for research and outcomes improvement. 7. Beyond global networking, shared learning from successful systems, and the pathway toward Center of Excellence designation, what additional benefits can clinicians and health systems gain by participating in the PERT Consortium? The ability to learn from other systems, the ability to share experiences. Allow people to develop their professional careers like leadership experience, becoming a member of the trainee council Initiate projects and receive funding for your ideas 8. For trainees interested in pulmonary embolism care, how can a trainee be a champion at their institution? Does PERT provide assistance and how can they really contribute meaningfully even before becoming a fellow/attending? Medical students and residents interested in PE should reach out to the consortium and the consortium will hook you up with the correct mentors who can nurture you along. Listen to the podcasts. Participate with your local PERT team PERT wants involvement of people who are social media savvy to help spread the word on PE. Top three take-away points from this episode Acute PE care has advanced and multiple treatment modalities for acute PE including catheter directed therapy, large bore thrombectomy, are becoming standard of care. Multidisciplinary models like PERT improve coordination and outcomes.

Grab your ADHD Thrive Decoder Kit here: http://adhdthriveinstitute.com/123 Sometimes it's not your child having a bad day. Sometimes it's that you are parenting a completely different nervous system, depending on what went into their mouth yesterday. In this eye-opening episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, Dana Kay unpacks one of the most overlooked biological stressors driving ADHD symptoms: delayed, invisible food reactions. If you've ever felt like your child's behavior shifts overnight — same child, same house, same rules — this episode explains what may actually be happening beneath the surface. Dana walks you through the full biological chain reaction: trigger foods, IgG-mediated immune flares, cytokine release, gut inflammation, intestinal permeability, and how inflammation travels upstream to the frontal lobe. She explains how symptoms like meltdowns, rigidity, emotional volatility, and impulse control struggles often begin days before the behavior appears. You'll also learn about opioid-like food peptides formed from gluten and dairy (gluteomorphin and casomorphin), how artificial dyes like Red 40 and Yellow 5 have been shown in studies to worsen hyperactivity, and why guessing at food changes often leaves parents exhausted and confused. This episode introduces Biological Stressor #3 inside the ADHD Thrive Decoder framework: Invisible Food Reactions. Most importantly, Dana helps you shift from "What's wrong today?" to "What touched their system yesterday?" — a mindset change that can quietly change everything.

What if your symptoms aren't the problem… but protection?In this episode, Dani unpacks a powerful pattern so many women find themselves in: finally feeling better… and then immediately trying to optimize something.More tracking. More control. More tweaking. More “fixing.”Until the nervous system is dysregulated again.This conversation explores the uncomfortable space that opens up when symptoms calm down — the vacuum that leaves us asking, “What's next? What do I fix now?” And what if that urge to optimize is actually a need to control?Dani shares:Why “feeling steady” can feel unsafeHow optimization can be disguised fearThe hidden comfort of micromanaging your bodyThe powerful question: What if all your symptoms disappeared tomorrow?How symptoms can function as protection (TMS lens)Period pain, body composition, and the “I should be there by now” beliefRadical self-love vs. fear-based healingWhy we often wait to live our lives until our bodies are “perfect”How staying small can feel safer than being seenReframing “nothing to fix” as peacePractical ways to move forward without waiting for symptoms to disappearThis episode dives deep into the emotional layers beneath physical symptoms — from weight and body composition to career avoidance and period pain — and invites you to consider that your body may not be broken… it may be protecting you.If you've ever thought:“I'll start living once I fix this.”“I should be further along by now.”“I just need to optimize one more thing…”This conversation is for you.Healing isn't always about adding more. Sometimes it's about tolerating peace.Book a call with me to learn more about the program: https://calendly.com/daniellehamiltonhealth/discoverycall Enroll today! https://dhhealth.showitpreview.com/blood-sugar-mastery STAY IN TOUCH WITH ME:

Patty Riddle Kirshner, a Nebraska pastor and evangelist, shares how her life changed when COVID swept through her church in August 2020. Patty spent 83 days in four hospitals, over four weeks in a coma, suffered paralysis from the neck down, and died briefly from cardiac arrest. During that moment, she describes being in heaven's "glory," overwhelmed by God's presence, seeing an unusual sky color and things that stunned her. God told her she could stay or return; she chose to come back because there was more work to do.  After extensive rehabilitation, she recovered movement and a national news team welcomed her home. Tragically, she soon faced her husband Ronnie's glioblastoma diagnosis; he died in May 2021. Patty reflects on the anger, the grief, learning to live "in the moment," staying connected to community and church, starting the widows' group Embrace, and testifying that God remained faithful through suffering, loss, and renewed purpose.  00:00 A Glimpse of Glory  00:41 Meet Patty and Her Story  01:33 Life Before COVID  02:37 Symptoms and Denial  04:43 Hospitalization and Fear  07:20 Coma and Ventilator Fight  10:29 Heart Stops Heaven Visit  13:36 Choose to Stay or Go  14:48 Rehab Isolation and Fear  18:45 Recovery and Witnessing  20:41 Vision of Anointing  22:24 Husband's Fall and Diagnosis  24:17 Grief After Loss  25:58 Finding Hope Again  26:56 New Love And Calling  28:51 Hard Questions Anger  31:14 Staying In The Moment  33:22 Advice For Widows  36:20 Embrace Support Group  40:59 Knowing God Is Real  44:07 Haiti Prophetic Warning  45:20 Ministry Links And Prayer of blessing over listeners  Patty's facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/p/Evangelist-Patty-Riddle-100081176667734/  Patty's Website: https://www.womenunitedministry.com/

Today we're joined by Sophia Kristjansson, Founder and CEO of Lexicon Lens, a boutique consulting firm that helps leaders close the persistent gap between strategy and execution—so plans don't just look good on paper, they actually turn into results.Sophia's WebsiteLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sophiakristjansson/With more than 25 years of experience guiding organizations through growth, change, and transformation, Sophia works closely with leadership teams to restore clarity, align people and process, and build traction when momentum starts to stall. She also teaches graduate courses in business strategy and organizational transformation at the University of DenverShe's a contributing author to Lives Lost and Leadership Found, edited by Ian Ziskin—who joined us a few episodes back.Why Strategy Fails at the Finish LineSophia, many organizations have smart strategies—but struggle with execution. From your experience, where do things most often break down between intention and action?Closing the Strategy–Execution GapAt Lexicon Lens, your work centers on alignment, collaboration, and leadership development. What are the first signs you look for that tell you a team is losing traction—and how do you help them regain momentum? Sophia shares these six signs:Misaligned success signals – Leaders focus on the wrong metrics, missing what truly indicates performance or risk.Organizational silos – Limited cross-functional visibility creates blind spots that hide emerging problems.Communication mistaken for clarity – Sending emails or memos is assumed to solve issues, without ensuring understanding or follow-through.Execution problems misdiagnosed – Symptoms are addressed instead of root causes, leading to recurring issues.Outdated mental models – Leaders rely on old assumptions and ways of thinking without realizing they no longer fit current realities.Human risk ignored – The people impact (capacity, morale, alignment, burnout) is not surfaced or discussed openly.These six signals indicate leaders may not be seeing the real problem. Bringing leaders together to surface these blind spots enables shared understanding, innovation, and collaboration—often prompting the realization that the issue isn't execution alone, but perception and alignment.Turning Ideas into Action in Complex EnvironmentsLeaders today are navigating constant change, competing priorities, and growing complexity. What practical frameworks or habits help leaders move from analysis paralysis to decisive action?Lessons from “Lives Lost and Leadership Found”You contributed to Lives Lost and Leadership Found, a book that explores how personal loss and reflection can deepen leadership capacity. How did that experience shape—or reinforce—your perspective on leadership, resilience, and execution?Teaching the Next Generation of LeadersYou teach graduate students in business strategy and organizational transformation. What do you see emerging leaders getting right—and where do they most need to develop skills to lead effectively in today's organizations?For leaders listening right now who feel stuck between a clear vision and uneven execution—what's one small, meaningful step they can take this week to move forward?

Break the anxiety cycle with daily guided support inside my End The Anxiety Program, step by step tools, CBT based direction, and a clear path forward. Start today by Clicking Here.  Today's Episode: In this episode of The Anxiety Guy Podcast, we focus on body scanning and hypervigilance, the habit of constantly monitoring sensations for signs of danger. If you keep checking your pulse, breathing, dizziness, chest sensations, tingling, tension, vision changes, or "weird" feelings and then spiraling into health anxiety, panic, or catastrophic thinking, you're not alone. You'll learn why symptom checking, tracking, and Googling symptoms can feel helpful in the moment but actually trains the brain to stay on high alert. We'll break down how reassurance seeking and safety behaviors keep the nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight, and how to start interrupting the loop with a more neutral response.
