Former Metropolitan Correctional Center officer Tova Noel told the House Oversight Committee that her life has been upended by years of threats, harassment, and conspiracy theories tying her to Jeffrey Epstein's death. She denied playing any role in Epstein's death or any cover-up, saying she has been accused of being a murderer, threatened by strangers, and followed by rumors that have damaged her health, career, and personal life. Noel acknowledged that she was one of the officers on duty the night Epstein died and that she failed to properly perform required rounds and counts, but she framed that failure as part of the broader dysfunction inside the MCC rather than evidence of a plot. She blamed understaffing, poor training, bad communication from management, and what she called the “MCC Way” for the breakdowns that occurred that night.Noel also rejected specific suspicions that have followed her, including claims that she was the orange-colored figure seen on surveillance near Epstein's cell or that she had anything to do with a mysterious payment connected to access to Epstein. She said she did not return to Epstein's tier that night, did not carry or distribute anything orange in the Special Housing Unit, and had no knowledge of who the figure was. Her testimony still leaves the larger questions around Epstein's death alive because she admitted the basic institutional failures: Epstein was not checked as required, records were falsified, and the jail's security practices broke down around one of the most high-profile detainees in federal custody. In other words, Noel's testimony was an attempt to separate incompetence and institutional rot from murder or conspiracy, while critics continue to point to the same gaps—failed cameras, missed rounds, falsified logs, and unexplained footage—as the reason the official story has never satisfied the public.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Danielle Pull Quotes “I just love the competition of it and seeing how far people can push their bodies and how far they can go. And I love team sports. I didn't used to like soccer, but I've been watching World Cup games with Luis, who's my partner. Since Mexico played the United States, we watched that game in Ciudad Juárez in Mexico together. And that's one of the last times the U.S. won. We were down there, and I remember cheering and looking around, and Luis was like, ‘Don't cheer. You're going to get us in trouble.'” “I started getting out of my skin this morning listening to stories about the international teams arriving in Mexico and being met with mariachis and food and dancing and celebration, and then hearing about teams arriving here and being locked in rooms, strip searched, cavity searched, and the best Somali referee being sent back. He can't referee here, which is freaking insane. FIFA has its own problems, but this is the contradiction: we're supposed to be hosting the world, and yet we're treating the world like it's dangerous.”   Jenny Pull Quotes “I have a love-hate relationship with soccer because I had three older brothers and they all played soccer very seriously. Two of them went to state, one of them was first team all-state for Colorado. Every weekend was a soccer tournament. By the time I was old enough for my parents to ask if I wanted to play, I was like, ‘No, I hate soccer. I'm going to do dance.' I still like that choice. I prefer dancing more than soccer, but soccer is the one sport where I actually know what's going on and know the rules. Anything else, I just dissociate and have no idea what's happening. I do like the snacks that often come with watching sports, though.” “I saw the story about the referee not being allowed in, and it made me think about the question of hospitality. We are hosting the world, and yet as a nation, as a government, we are acting as though we hate the world. It's such a weird time. I honestly would not blame countries if they said, ‘No, we're not actually going to go at all.'” Well, first I guess I would have to believe that there was or is an actual political dialogue taking place that I could potentially be a part of. And honestly, I'm not sure that I believe that.

Show Summary On today's episode, we're having a conversation with Licensed Clinical Social Worker Amanda Noyes, the founder of Finding Freedom Therapy and member of the DFW First Responders Support Network. We talk about Trauma therapy and mental health networks for service members, veterans and first responders Provide FeedbackAs a dedicated member of the audience, we would like to hear from you. If you PsychArmor has helped you learn, grow, and support those who've served and those who care for them, we would appreciate hearing your story. Please follow this link to share how PsychArmor has helped you in your service journey Share PsychArmor StoriesAbout Today's GuestAmanda Noyes is the founder of Finding Freedom Therapy. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker–Supervisor with over 25 years of experience, she has had the opportunity to work in numerous crisis situations where she witnessed firsthand the gravity of trauma and grief. It was in these situations that she realized there were not enough opportunities to heal from trauma and loss after the initial crisis. With this knowledge, she formed Finding Freedom Therapy, PLLC, in 2014 with the vision of providing specialized treatment to those who have endured (or are continuing to endure) horrific traumas and unspeakable losses.After earning her degree in psychology and international studies from Texas A&M University, Amanda pursued her Master of Science in Social Work at the University of Texas at Austin. Throughout her career, she has had the unique opportunity to gain notable hands-on experience, much of which was working in conjunction with the military, first responders, and frontline workers. She has worked alongside probation and parole officers in the field, with police officers on-scene, supported doctors and nurses in the ED and ICU departments of level-one trauma centers, counseled families of the recently deceased at the moment of loss, and worked next to the U.S. National Guard when assisting during Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Ike, and Harvey.Amanda's experience with veterans and military service members began early in her career with her graduate internship at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Hospital, and later continued with her work as lead trauma therapist for an inpatient military program, Freedom Care, where she worked with active-duty combat military and veterans suffering from PTSD. She is trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Written Exposure Therapy (WET). Each and every step of her career has shaped and strengthened her ability to better assist clients through the most difficult times in their lives.Links Mentioned in this Episode Finding Freedom Therapy WebsiteDFW First Responders Support NetworkPsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's resource of the week is the PsychArmor course Trauma Informed Interactions with Veterans.

Previously, she co-founded a mental health social enterprise whose programs and curricula impacted seven million students in Morocco. A sought-after speaker, she has addressed audiences at the UK Parliament, the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting in Davos, the IAYMH Conference, and TEDx, among other platforms. So, I hope you enjoy listening to her as much as I did, in a dynamic conversation that takes in all of the above and more! 

In this episode, we shine a spotlight on the Pears Family School, a pioneering Alternative Provision school in the UK that is redefining how we support children with complex emotional, behavioral, and mental health needs. Facing a national crisis in child mental health and a lack of joined-up services, the Pears Family School bridges the gap between education and mental health through a unique, systemic, and family-focused approach.We are joined by Laura Lower and Maya Bell Kohli as we discover how the school's founders, both experienced teachers and systemic family therapists, created a model that integrates therapeutic and educational practices. We'll explore the origins of their innovative multi-family classroom, the five bridging themes that guide every aspect of school life—Active Warmth, Respectful Curiosity, Hopeful Motivation, Supportive Challenge, and Engendered Trust—and the theoretical foundations that underpin their work, from Attachment Theory to Mentalization.Hear how all staff, not just therapists, are trained in mental health principles, enabling them to make informed interventions throughout the school day. Learn about the school's commitment to involving parents and carers in every step, from classroom activities to group discussions, building trust and solidarity among families who have often felt excluded or blamed.Maya and Laura share real stories of transformation, discuss the challenges of working with children at risk of exclusion, and examine how the Pears Family School helps students recover, regain confidence, and transition successfully back to mainstream education. Whether you're an educator, mental health professional, or advocate for vulnerable children, this episode offers practical insights and inspiration for anyone interested in systemic change and holistic support for families.Laura is a family and systemic psychotherapist and supervisor with extensive experience in therapeutic education and safeguarding. For the past six years, she has been a senior leader at The Pears Family School, a specialist therapeutic alternative provision, where she works as Head of Therapy and Safeguarding Lead. Before joining the school, Laura worked in CAMHS as a Senior Mental Health Practitioner and spent seven years as a senior leader within a large SEMH Academy Trust. Prior to returning to the UK, she spent six years in Australia as a senior social worker and specialist forensic child interviewer. Across every setting, Laura has championed the belief that schools can be transformative spaces for children and families. She is passionate about systemic approaches and their power to create meaningful, sustainable change.Maya is a trainee family and systemic psychotherapist who has worked at Pears Family School since 2018, firstly as a Class Teacher and now as an Assistant Headteacher and SENCO. Her interest in systemic ideas has been growing steadily through her work with families in education and charity contexts over the last 15 years. At Pears Family School her favourite part of her role is working alongside families so that they are positioned more powerfully within school or societal systems that often contribute to how they might feel they are failing or powerless.

Defense failure. Prosecutorial overreach. Systemic rigidity. And a defendant making post-conviction choices that may be sealing her own fate. Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta says the Mackenzie Shirilla case isn't just one thing that went wrong — it's a cascade of failures that compounded at every stage.Shirilla was seventeen when the crash in Strongsville, Ohio killed Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan. She was convicted of four counts of murder in a bench trial. Her defense raised a medical condition but never proved it. The prosecution charged murder without a confession. A post-conviction petition with expert evidence was rejected over a one-day filing miss. And then she agreed to a Netflix documentary that reignited every negative characterization and prompted a fellow inmate to publicly contradict her on-camera persona.Motta, host of the Defense Diaries podcast, sat down for a full examination of the case. He starts with what the defense should have done — the experts that were needed, the evidence that was available, and the strategy that could have challenged the prosecution's narrative. He moves into the prosecution's overreach — whether murder was the right charge and whether the bench trial format gave the state an unfair advantage. And he addresses the post-conviction reality — the documentary fallout, the families' opposition, the social media footprint, and what Mackenzie should actually be doing inside prison to have any chance at parole in 2037.The legal system processed Mackenzie Shirilla. The question is whether it processed her correctly — and whether anything she does from here can change the trajectory.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

(13) Peter Berkowitz examines two distinct intellectual critiques of the United States as it approaches its 250th anniversary: the postmodern progressives and the post-liberal right. The progressives argue that America is mired in systemic oppression and that its founding principles are the actual cause of its problems. The post-liberal right, conversely, views the nation as decadent and corrupt because it fails to recognize a higher religious authority. Both groups advocate for fundamental changes, with the right-wing critique specifically calling for the government to take a more active role in leading citizens toward virtue and salvation.1671NEW AMSTERDAM

Cutting Through the Chaos with Wallace Garneau – Propaganda multiplies the effect. Foreign broadcasters, hostile regimes, and ideologues amplify grievances and blur truth. Purity politics and virtue signaling make belief a credential. Once people feel moral bankruptcy awaits them unless they accept contested claims, they become immune to evidence.

"There are a lot of specifics that nurses need to keep in mind as they are administering this herpes simplex modified virus to patients because accidental exposure is of concern both to the patient, to their family members, as well as to healthcare workers.

Highlights From This Episode "[Oncolytic viruses] can have direct lysis to the tumor cells themselves, or they can cause immunogenic activation. They release tumor-associated antigens and then proinflammatory signals, so think of T cells, natural killer cells, those sorts of things, that can convert to immunologically cold tumors. Those are tumors that are immune silenced into hot tumors which are now immune activated. By doing that, they recruit those T cells and other cells to the area to attack both the primary tumors. But that's also thought to be how they work on distant or noninjected sites as well. This immunomodulatory capacity has led to the reclassification of oncolytic viruses as a form of cancer immunotherapy. So, think of it kind of similarly to how we think of immune checkpoint inhibitors in recruiting immune cells and leaving our immune system in the on position. This is also kind of a form of immunotherapy." TS 4:35 "One of the toxicities I know that is of significant concern to patients, family members, and healthcare workers is the incidence of herpes infections. Systemic herpetic infections are extremely rare and usually more common in patients who may be immunocompromised. In patients who also have other immune-related diseases—such as vitiligo, vasculitis, pneumonitis, sometimes worsening psoriasis—because you're mounting an immune response with these types of things, sometimes you can see a worsening of those types of immune symptoms. But for the most part, these types of side effects are very well tolerated in most patients." TS 9:07 "Talimogene is generally transmitted via bodily fluids or touch. It's not airborne. Herpes simplex virus isn't an airborne type of virus. Another thing to consider is where are you going to inject this? Are you going to do this in your infusion therapy unit? Are you going to do it in a dedicated room? Who's going to escort the patient to the room? How is the virus going to arrive at the room? How will you clean the room and all of the laboratory equipment or any of the exam tables that may be in there? I think having all of that discussed and assigned mitigates the consternation that can sometimes occur—the fear that occurs with administering a virus that is thought to be fairly communicable." TS 15:44 "Helping patients understand how this works [is important] because hearing that you're receiving a virus, particularly a herpes simplex virus, can be scary to a patient. I think understanding that it's modified or essentially we're taking the parts out of it so that we can directly inject a portion that recruits immune cells to that area, because the goal is for the oncolytic virus to attack cancer cells and then destroy them by triggering an immune response in the body." TS 20:51 "Sometimes patients are very concerned about urine in the toilet, bodily fluids, kissing loved ones, holding hands, hugging, you know, am I going to infect my loved one because I'm getting this type of an oncolytic virus therapy? I like to reassure patients that they can continue to hold hands and hug their loved ones as normal. Viral DNA is usually only present on the injection site. And as I mentioned previously, we want to cover that injection site with an occlusive dressing, at least with talimogene, for up to seven days.

Three active criminal matters. Three distinct jurisdictions. One forensic psychotherapist identifying the systemic failures that allegedly allowed each to occur. The Nancy Guthrie disappearance remains unsolved months after the eighty-four-year-old was allegedly abducted from her Tucson home. Unknown DNA is under analysis at the FBI laboratory in Quantico, and genetic genealogy is reportedly being applied. More than fifty thousand tips have been submitted. The investigation continues without a named suspect. In the Anna Kepner case, Timothy Hudson has been charged as an adult in the Southern District of Florida with first-degree murder in connection with his stepsister's death on a Carnival cruise ship. He has pleaded not guilty. Parallel custody proceedings in Brevard County have produced a record of family collapse — parental expulsion, alleged alignment against the accused, and an emergency custody petition filed by the defendant's biological father. In the D4VD case, David Anthony Burke faces first-degree murder charges with special circumstances in Los Angeles County in the alleged killing of fourteen-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez. Prosecutors have alleged murder for financial gain and murder of a witness. Burke has pleaded not guilty. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott, with more than three decades in forensic practice, joins True Crime Today to conduct a cross-case analysis examining perpetrator psychology in the Guthrie investigation, the clinical dynamics of family disintegration in the Kepner proceedings, and the developmental trajectory — from religious restriction through industry enmeshment — that allegedly preceded the D4VD charges.Footer Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this conversation, Lawrence turns toward one of the most misunderstood emotional experiences in parental alienation: anger. Rather than viewing anger as the core issue, he reflects on how fear, grief, shame, helplessness, and emotional exhaustion often sit quietly underneath reactive patterns. Drawing from lived experience, recovery work, and nervous system awareness, Lawrence explores how alienated parents can become trapped between emotional suppression and emotional overload while trying to hold onto connection, identity, and hope.Blending emotional insight with grounded recovery principles, this conversation explores people-pleasing, emotional eating, black-and-white thinking, and the ways unresolved emotions quietly shape relationships and behavior over time. Rather than chasing perfection or emotional control, the focus becomes learning how to stay present with difficult emotions without collapsing into them. Living fully while navigating parental alienation is not giving up, it's an act of resilience, honesty, and integrity.Key TakeawaysAnger is a doorway, not a detriment, to understanding ourselves.Primary emotions are signals that need to be felt and processed.Secondary emotions often serve as protective strategies.Building emotional capacity is a gradual process that requires practice.Community and support are vital in emotional healing.Addressing fear underneath anger can transform relationships.Systemic family anger affects everyone and needs awareness.Self-compassion is essential in managing emotional struggles.Chapters00:00 - Understanding Anger in Parental Alienation03:00 - Exploring Primary and Secondary Emotions05:50 - The Role of Fear and Control in Anger08:41 - Navigating Relationships and Anger Dynamics11:59 - Chronic Anger and Its Impact14:50 - Systemic Anger and Its Ripple Effects17:44 - Practical Strategies for Managing Anger21:02 - Building Emotional Capacity and Community Support24:04 - The Journey of Self-Discovery and Healing26:57 - Final Thoughts on Anger and Relationships Support & Community:Parental Alienation Anonymous (PAA): Join our free 12-step support group with 16 online meetings weekly for parents, grandparents, family members, and previously alienated individuals seeking healing and recovery.PA-A.org: Parental Alienation Advocates is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to fostering education, advocacy, and support for individuals grappling with the distressing impact of parental alienation, estrangement, erasure, and family disconnection.All our services are free and sustained by grants and community donations.

Link to Pre Order: Tackling Gender Bias in The Healthcare System. What Patient stories Teach Us About Implementing Systemic Change: https://www.waterstones.com/book/tackling-gender-bias-in-the-healthcare-system/louise-hockings-thompson/jinty-sheerin/9781805018810Our guest today is Neelam Heera-Shergill, founder and CEO of Cysters, a community-led charity with national reach working at the intersection of menstrual health, maternal care and mental well-being. When we talk about gender bias in healthcare, we're really talking about a system that has historically been designed for men. But what happens when you exist outside that narrow template in more ways than one? Neelam knows that story intimately, and has built something extraordinary in response to it. Rooted in grassroots activism and collective liberation, Cysters exists to challenge the stigma, systemic barriers and cultural silence that prevents so many people particularly those from ethnically diverse communities from getting the care they deserve. Neelam's work spans advocacy, creative storytelling, policy influence and community building, all driven by a simple but radical belief: that menstrual and maternal care should never be a privilege. In this conversation we explore: · How Cysters began with one voice and one lived experience and the moment Neelam knew she had to turn it into something bigger. · Why the framing of ethnically diverse communities as "hard to reach" says far more about the system than the community and what Cysters' evidence actually shows. · The real problem at the heart of healthcare inequity: "a lack of listening, referring, believing." · Through our research for our book, we found that women from deprived areas and marginalised communities are doubly disadvantaged when it comes to healthcare and whether Neelam's findings reflect the same. · The specific conditions endometriosis, PMOS, miscarriage, menopause where the intersection of gender and ethnicity creates particularly stark gaps in care. · How Cysters holds space for communities where menstruation carries cultural silence or shame, while still challenging it. · The ways Cysters has influenced real research and policy, and how a community of voices is making a tangible difference. · What a genuinely equitable reproductive healthcare system would look like and the two or three things that would need to change first. · Why "radical love and care" sits at the centre of Cysters' work, and why that language matters in a world of policy documents and research reports.We also catch up on our adventurous week hiking with Ramble Worldwide and Ageism is Never In Style in the Lake District with a wonderful group of like-minded women and we chat about why pre-orders for books truly matter (did you know we've got a book coming out in September?)Stick around for some beautiful inspiration to carry you through the week. ☕ SUBSCRIBE for honest chats on women's health, feminist issues, sisterhood & smashing the patriarchy, one cuppa at a time.

Show SummaryOn today's episode, talking with comedian Brad Bonar, founder of One Degree of Separation, an organization that uses stand-up comedy to spark honest conversations about depression and suicide prevention. We discuss his lived experience, breaking the silence with comedy, and turning their live shows into official training for service members, Veterans and their familiesProvide FeedbackAs a dedicated member of the audience, we would like to hear from you. If you PsychArmor has helped you learn, grow, and support those who've served and those who care for them, we would appreciate hearing your story. Please follow this link to share how PsychArmor has helped you in your service journey Share PsychArmor StoriesAbout Today's GuestBrad Bonar Jr. is the founder and creative force behind 1° of Separation. A seasoned stand-up comedian and magician by trade, Brad has spent nearly 30 years making people laugh around the world. He built a successful entertainment career headlining clubs and corporate shows, including a popular Dry Bar Comedy special that has garnered over 13 million online views. His comedy draws on everyday life and family, and is known for its clean yet keenly observant humor. But beneath the laughter, Brad quietly fought his own battles with depression since childhood.A turning point came a few years ago when Brad discovered an old keepsake: “I found a suicide note that I wrote in the 6th grade,” he recalls. “At first I kinda laughed about it, but then it became very sobering.“ Realizing that he had been struggling in silence for decades, and seeing so many others still doing the same, Brad felt compelled to act. He channeled his talents and insider knowledge of comedy into a deeply personal mission: “I've spent the past 25 years traveling the world making people laugh. Now I'm using my talents for something more personal. It's time to cast a spotlight that removes the stigma of mental illness.” With that, 1 Degree of Separation was born in 2019 as a project to fight depression with comedy.Brad immersed himself in learning about mental health, interviewing doctors and therapists to shape a show that was both funny and responsible in its messaging. He crafted the Five Questions after hours of writing and self-reflection one night. And he recruited fellow comedians (including his wife, Victoria, and others) willing to share their stories on stage. As a performer, Brad has a disarming, warm presence. Audiences often don't expect a comedian to talk about subjects like suicidal ideation, but Brad does so with authenticity and even hope. He frequently opens up about his own experiences – from that sixth-grade note, to a more recent mental health crisis that landed him in a 5150 psychiatric hold, to how “comedy saved me” when he learned to talk about his pain rather than hide it.Today, Brad Bonar Jr. serves as CEO of 1° of Separation, Inc., leading the nonprofit's growth while still touring as one of its headline speakers. Under his leadership, 1° of Separation has gained national attention for its innovative approach (featured on media from local news to podcasts and even military press.) Brad's ability to wear two hats – entertainer and mental health advocate – makes him a unique voice in suicide prevention. He often says, “Laughter changes your brain” and indeed, he's now leveraging laughter to change lives. Brad and his wife Victoria are based in Northern California, but travel constantly for training. When not on the road, he continues to perform traditional comedy and magic shows and is at work on a book about his journey and the intersection of comedy and mental health. In recognition of his efforts, Brad was invited to present at the Department of Defense/VA Suicide Prevention Conference in 2023, where 1° of Separation received a standing ovation from 2,500 professionals. Brad's personal mantra: “Comedy is universal… and if we can laugh at this, we can talk about it," encapsulates the spirit he brings to the cause. He proves that a comedian can change the world, one punchline and one life at a time.Links Mentioned in this Episode 1° of Separation websitePsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's resource of the week is the PsychArmor course, Supporting a Veteran in Crisis.

If you have ever treated the same problem over and over without lasting relief, this episode will help explain why. Dr. Holly Carling and Alicia explore what it actually means to chase symptoms, why it so often falls short, and what systemic healing looks like instead. Using the image of a house's electrical system throughout the episode, Dr. Carling explains why symptoms are breakers tripping. Medications and targeted treatments flip the breaker back on, but if no one opens the wall to find the faulty wiring, the breaker keeps tripping. She explains that the body is organized into interconnected systems, and when one is under strain, the signal reroutes. That is why treating back pain can lead to neck pain returning, or calming the gut can leave a patient exhausted. True healing means stabilizing the system driving the symptoms, not just quieting the output. In this episode: Why arthritis, kidney stones, gallstones, bone spurs, and cataracts can all share the same root cause, and what that reveals about symptom-focused care How to recognize when a symptom is part of a bigger systemic issue, including the role of chronicity and pattern overlap What systemic healing actually prioritizes: nervous system regulation, circulation, digestive efficiency, immune balance, and cellular energy How acupuncture stabilizes the whole system rather than targeting a single symptom, and why that produces broader, more lasting results   For full show notes, resources and links head to: https://vitalhealthcda.com/podcasts/   The Vital Health for You Podcast is for everyone.

Guilt, shame, and unreasonable expectations should not be the words that describe parenthood, but for many new parents, they are. This conversation focuses on the impact of social systems on perinatal mental health and what professionals should know about how to support people with perinatal mental health conditions. We still have a long way to go to fully understand how our social systems impact parents. Join us to learn more!

There is a difference between feeling ashamed and living inside shame. One is a passing signal. The other is the background atmosphere of an entire nervous system. In this episode, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof go deep on toxic shame as the next distinguishing characteristic of complex trauma in their CPT series. This is one of the most personal episodes they have recorded. Both hosts share what shame actually sounded like at its loudest in their lives, the specific words, the body states, the loops that ran for years before they had any way to interrupt them. And they are honest about where they still meet it today. Toxic shame in complex trauma is not just a feeling that shows up after a mistake. It is an identity state. It shifts from "I did something wrong" to "I am wrong." It shapes posture, vocal tone, breath, gaze, and the way the body interprets every social interaction as potential exposure or rejection. And because it developed in relationship, specifically in environments where expressing needs or emotions led to punishment, abandonment, or humiliation, it becomes deeply tied to every relational experience that follows. Elisabeth and Jennifer trace the full arc of how shame develops, from the child who cannot afford to see their caregiver as unsafe and so turns the blame inward, to the adult who moves through professional and personal relationships with a chronic bracing for exposure. They cover the neurobiology in depth: what the insula, default mode network, and vagus nerve have to do with chronic shame states, why shame can both amplify and numb internal sensation at the same time, and how shame formation, the physiological pairing of emotional shame states with immune and inflammatory responses, helps explain the health outcomes seen in adverse childhood experience research. The conversation also covers the double bind of shame in complex trauma, the trap of needing connection while also bracing for what connection has always brought. How shame drives substance use and disordered eating as regulation strategies. How systemic and cultural forces layer onto developmental shame in ways that make the pattern larger than any individual. And what post-traumatic growth actually looks like here: not confidence, not the absence of shame, but a little more space between the wave and the response, a little longer staying present in the body before the collapse happens, and gradually, relationships where being imperfect does not mean being abandoned. In This Episode, You Will Learn: Why toxic shame in complex trauma shifts from an emotion into an identity state How shame develops as a survival strategy when caregivers are unsafe and self-blame becomes the only available adaptation Why shame is not just cognitive but embodied, showing up in posture, vocal tone, breath, gaze, and gesture What shame formation is and how chronic shame states are linked to inflammation, immune dysregulation, and the health outcomes in ACE research How the insula, default mode network, and vagus nerve are involved in chronic shame patterning Why shame can simultaneously amplify and numb internal sensation and what that means for healing The double bind of shame: needing connection while bracing against it How systemic and cultural shaming layers onto developmental shame and why the nervous system cannot fully distinguish between them How shame drives substance use and disordered eating as regulation strategies and why the shame-use cycle is so hard to interrupt What post-traumatic growth looks like in relation to shame: not the absence of it, but increased range, flexibility, and capacity to stay present with it How accountability, relational repair, and allowing others to have their own experience gradually shifts the shame pattern   Chapters 0:00 - The Difference Between Feeling Ashamed and Living Inside Shame  0:33 - Welcome: Toxic Shame Through the Lens of Complex PTSD  1:54 - What Shame Actually Is: A Whole Body Physiological Response  2:14 - When Shame Becomes an Identity State  3:01 - Shame in the Body: Posture, Voice, Breath, and Withdrawal  3:34 - Systemic and Cultural Shame: When the Group Itself Is Dysregulated  5:55 - Shame as the Emotion That Represses All Other Emotions  7:15 - How Shame Develops in Complex Trauma: The Child Who Cannot Blame the Caregiver  8:48 - Everything Is My Fault as a State of Being  9:43 - Jennifer and Elisabeth Share What Shame Sounded Like at Its Loudest  11:28 - How Shame Physically Inhibits Expression  12:09 - The Double Bind: Needing Connection While Bracing Against It  14:00 - The Neurobiology: Insula, Freeze, Dissociation, and No Safe Discharge  17:31 - Large Scale Neural Patterning: DMN Loops, Reward Signaling, and Oxytocin  18:36 - What Shame Looks Like Now for Jennifer and Elisabeth  23:51 - Shame Formation: Inflammation, the Vagus Nerve, and ACE Research  26:43 - The Shame and Substance Use Cycle  30:28 - How Both Hosts Used Substances to Regulate Shame  34:15 - Systemic Shame and the Brain's Drive for Belonging  36:10 - What Post-Traumatic Growth Actually Looks Like With Shame  38:51 - Relational Healing: Repair, Accountability, and Letting Someone Love You Imperfectly  41:14 - Allowing Another Person to Have Their Experience Without Collapsing   Resources and Links NSI Foundations Bundle for coaches and practitioners: neurosomaticintelligence.com/foundations Two week Rewire Trial of guided neuro somatic training: rewiretrial.com Learn more about Elisabeth's work at brainbased.com Learn more about Jennifer's work at her YouTube channel: Sacred Synapse https://www.youtube.com/@sacredsynapse-23 Trauma Rewired podcast  is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

DeAngelo, MD, PhD, Chief, Division of Leukemia at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, in Boston, MA, provides an overview of the early signs and symptoms of SM, outlines the appropriate diagnostic criteria and tools, and reinforces the importance of timely referral and testing for these patients to be properly managed. Led by a clinical expert with experience diagnosing and treating patients with SM, this 45-minute CME program will highlight early signs of SM, outline diagnostic criteria and tools, and reinforce the importance of timely referral/testing. Target AudienceThis activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of physicians specializing in hematology, dermatology, gastroenterology, immunology, and family practice.

Protest is the ultimate in equal-opportunity political action. As Annie Leonard, former executive director of Greenpeace USA says, "Making change is like laying a stone path across the garden. Peaceful protest may be every 4th or 8th or 200th stone; it helps us get where we want to go but also we need a lot of other stones too.”  Leonard explores the history of protests in her new book “Protest: Respect It. Defend It. Use It.”  And while protest is the loudest and most visible tool, it's only one of many ways to take action. Through community building, through civic engagement, through elected office, through corporate boardrooms, through churches and nonprofit agencies, there are countless paths to exercising power and promoting positive change. In this episode we hear from three leaders working in three different arenas, all toward the same goal.

The procedural and legal questions across the D4VD, Nancy Guthrie, and Duggar cases reveal how alleged institutional failures compound regardless of the type of case. Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke address the legal complexity, the alleged investigative missteps, and the systemic patterns that connect all three.The D4VD segment addresses federal jurisdiction questions — alleged interstate transport of a minor, the potential applicability of trafficking statutes, and why the Los Angeles County prosecution is proceeding on state charges including first-degree murder with special circumstances while alleged federal angles remain unaddressed. Robin provides context on parallel investigations and what the alleged evidence of premeditation means for the prosecution's theory of the case.The Nancy Guthrie segment focuses on the alleged evidence processing failures between Pima County and FBI laboratories, the legal mechanisms available to compel transparency in an active investigation, and whether the cryptocurrency ransom demands carry independent criminal liability regardless of their alleged connection to the abduction. The FBI Director's public criticism of local handling adds an alleged inter-agency dimension with both legal and political implications.The Duggar segment addresses Florida's lewd and lascivious statutes, the evidentiary implications of recorded jail calls, mandatory reporting obligations under both Arkansas and Florida law, and whether multi-state CPS investigations are viable when alleged abuse patterns cross jurisdictional lines within a single family. Robin connects the alleged IBLP institutional framework to how alleged reporting failures may perpetuate across generations — the same alleged cycle, the same alleged silence, different alleged victims.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What happens when big business runs healthcare and clinicians are pushed out of decision-making? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Harry Severance shares decades of clinical and educational experience to diagnose the root causes of our workforce crisis: moral injury, profit-over-patient priorities, and the exodus of burned-out physicians and nurses. Dr. Severance and Dr. Austin explore multi-tiered healthcare solutions, the unsustainability of the current U.S. system, barriers like the Stark Law, the growing unionization movement, and practical paths for clinicians to reclaim agency, both top-down (seats at the C-suite table) and bottom-up (advocacy and collective action). You'll hear how they: Examine the shift from patient-centered care to corporate metrics and its devastating impact on clinician wellbeing and patient outcomes Discuss alarming statistics: more physicians leaving than entering the U.S., projected shortages, and unpayable medical bills driving bankruptcies Challenge the status quo on single-payer vs. hybrid systems and the need for baseline healthcare access for all citizens Address apathy vs. agency and the power of persistence, political involvement, and community action Emphasize the timeless wisdom of “never give up”  even when the system feels overwhelmingly broken If you're feeling the weight of a corporate-dominated healthcare system or searching for ways to drive meaningful change, this episode delivers both hard truths and hopeful calls to action. About the Guest: “You can't always get what you want. But if you try, sometimes you just might find you get what you need.” - Dr. Harry Severance Dr. Harry Severance is an Assistant Adjunct Professor at Duke University with decades of clinical experience in emergency and acute care medicine. A passionate change-maker and workforce advocate, he has counseled countless physicians and clinicians navigating burnout and disillusionment.

Episode 369: Dr. Kelly Casperson, interviewed by Sarah Reardon What happens when a urologic surgeon who has spent years treating women's bladder and sexual health sits down to answer every question she wishes her patients had asked sooner? You get this episode. In a role reversal from her usual hosting chair, Dr. Kelly Casperson is interviewed by Sarah Reardon for a wide-ranging, myth-busting conversation on perimenopause, hormone therapy, and what it actually means to advocate for yourself in a medical system that has historically under-served women. No gatekeeping. No fear-mongering. Just the science, the nuance, and the permission to want more. Perimenopause is not just hot flashes. The hormonal shifts of perimenopause and menopause affect your bladder, your sleep, your joints, your skin, your mood, and your sex life — often years before your period stops. Kelly breaks down what's actually happening biologically and why so many women are told their symptoms are "just aging." Local estrogen and systemic HRT are not the same thing — and you may need both. Vaginal estrogen treats the tissue. Systemic hormone therapy treats the whole person. Kelly explains the difference, who benefits from each, and how to have an informed conversation with your provider about what's right for you. DHEA and testosterone belong in the conversation. These hormones are not just for men. Kelly covers the evidence for testosterone and DHEA in women's health — including delivery methods, indications, and why so many women are never offered them. Finding a knowledgeable provider is hard. Here's how to do it. Not every clinician is trained in hormone therapy. Kelly talks about how to identify providers who are, and how to self-educate enough to advocate effectively in any appointment. Gut health, exercise, and alcohol all matter — but not instead of hormones. Lifestyle strategies can amplify hormone therapy; they're not a replacement for it. Kelly cuts through the supplement noise and explains what the evidence actually supports. Gender bias is real, and naming it is the first step. From the Women's Health Initiative fallout to the way women's pain is routinely minimized, Kelly addresses the systemic forces that have shaped (and limited) what women are offered — and how to push back.

Members of marginalized communities are often told to be "resilient," but how do you bounce back when the system itself is the weight on your shoulders? When policy is the source of the trauma, the burden of healing shouldn't rest solely on the individual. Joining us for this episode is a powerhouse in the field of psychology: the President of the American Psychological Association, Dr. Debra M. Kawahara. In this unflinching conversation, we dismantle the myth of individual resiliency and confront the systemic forces shaping our mental well-being. From the healthy paranoia required for survival in marginalized communities to the traumatizing optics of immigration enforcement, we explore how sociopolitical climates act as a direct catalyst for mental health crises. Listeners will learn: why focusing solely on individual grit can lead to victim-blaming and ignoring systemic failures how society takes psychological comfort in believing people “deserve” their circumstances why viewing healthcare and education as human rights is the first step toward equity If you've ever felt like anxiety is a rational response to an irrational world, this exploration of systemic inequity and the fight for collective wellness is for you. Learn how to stay in the fight without letting the weight of the world knock you out. "Don't get knocked out because we need you." ~Dr. Debra M. Kawahara, President of the American Psychological Association Debra M. Kawahara, Ph.D., is a psychologist, scholar, and advocate for justice and mental health resource accessibility. As the 2025 President of the American Psychological Association and Associate Dean of Academic Affairs at Alliant University, she leads with vision and heart — shaping psychology's future through cultural humility, intersectional insight, and systemic care. Her work spans over 20 academic programs across six campuses and online, and her scholarship bridges feminist theory, Buddhist psychotherapy, Asian American mental health, and leadership grounded in equity. Internationally published and recognized, Debra brings both academic excellence and therapeutic wisdom to her teaching, speaking, and clinical practice — where she works with individuals, couples, families, and organizations in cultivating resilience and meaningful change.

By 2011, Baghdad was physically transformed by concrete blast walls institutionalizing sectarian division. Abdul-Ahadcritiques Maliki's government for hollowing out the military through systemic corruption, turning units into "money-making machines." The failure of the 2012 "Friday of Anger" protests and the spillover of the Syrian civil war allowed ISIS to masquerade as "liberators" in Sunni cities like Mosul, exploiting deep-seated grievances against the oppressive central government.
