    In this episode, Colleen O'Grady talks with pediatric obesity specialist Dr. Joey Skelton about one of the most sensitive topics for parents of teens: how to address weight and eating habits without causing shame or harm. Drawing from his new book, Your Child Is Not Their Weight: Parenting in a Size-Obsessed World, Dr. Skelton explains how well-meaning parents can unintentionally heighten body image struggles, disordered eating, and family tension when they focus too much on weight. Dr. Skelton introduces the idea of “threading the needle”—supporting a teen's health without feeding the cultural obsession with body size. He encourages parents to move away from comments, pressure, and restriction, and instead create a home environment built on love and structure. That means modeling healthy habits, setting consistent routines around meals and snacks, limiting food-related commentary, and avoiding moral labels like “good” and “bad” foods. Colleen and Dr. Skelton also explore the difference between healthy eating, disordered eating, and eating disorders, the emotional impact of weight talk in families, when parents should be concerned, and how to help teens develop a healthier relationship with food and their bodies. This episode offers practical, compassionate guidance for moms who want to protect both their child's physical health and emotional well-being. Three key takeaways from this episode: 1. Talking about weight can backfire. Even loving comments like “Do you really need another cookie?” may be heard by teens as criticism or shame. Dr. Skelton encourages parents to focus less on weight and more on creating healthy family routines. 2. Replace pressure and restriction with love and structure. Rather than policing food, parents can help by planning meals, setting snack and dinner routines, eating together when possible, and modeling a balanced relationship with food and movement. 3. Your teen's worth is never defined by their body. Helping teens build body confidence starts with what parents model at home—avoiding negative body talk, not commenting on appearance, and reinforcing that health, character, and identity matter far more than weight.

    Send a textSeventy thousand digits of pi is impressive, but the number that stuck with us is much scarier: about one in four high school students now reports sleeping five hours or less. We dig into the latest teen sleep deprivation data, what it means for learning, mental health, and emotional regulation, and why “just go to bed earlier” ignores adolescent circadian rhythm biology. When melatonin shifts later during puberty, early school start times can become a daily clash between the clock and the teen brain.From there we head outdoors for pet science, exploring dog sledding and mushing through a surprising lens. A survey-based study from the Czech Republic frames mushing as a human-dog partnership shaped by empathy, ecology, and even spirituality. We connect those ideas to the Iditarod, its roots in the 1925 serum run, the extreme athletic demands placed on sled dogs, and the real ethical questions that come with a dangerous sport people feel deeply about.Our Ask An Expert guest is Dr. Alex Dainis, a geneticist and science communicator who makes biochemistry unforgettable by taste testing amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. We talk sweet glycine, candy-like lysine, sulfur-packed cysteine, and why showing the process of science matters as much as the results. Alex also shares how ACS Reactions builds curiosity by running experiments where nobody knows the outcome at the start, plus her strongest argument for using honest uncertainty in science communication.If you like science news, practical context, and a few weird facts you'll repeat to your friends, hit play.

    Has your teenage self ever felt like you're a different person depending on who you're around? Laughing at things you don't find funny… changing how you speak, dress, or act just to fit in. The pressure to belong can quietly reshape who you are. But a Muslim's identity was never meant to be built by the crowd. In a world constantly telling you who to be, Islam anchors your identity in something far stronger.  This episode explores the pressure of fitting in, the power of friendship, and why the strongest identity a young Muslim can have is the one rooted in Iman. Because when your roots are strong, no trend, crowd, or opinion can shake who you truly are.

    In this live Q&A episode of The Health Revival Show, Liz and Becca break down some of the most common questions they're seeing in functional medicine today—from chronic constipation to hormone therapy side effects. They dive deep into topics like redundant colon (elongated colon) and why it's often blamed for constipation when the real causes may be microbiome imbalance, bile flow issues, hormones, or nervous system dysfunction. You'll also learn why heartburn can appear after starting hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and why the hormones themselves are rarely the root problem. Instead, digestive weaknesses like low stomach acid, poor bile flow, or microbiome imbalances may be the real driver. The episode also covers teen digestive issues, exploring how puberty, estrogen fluctuations, stress, and poor digestion habits can create stomach pain after eating. Finally, Liz and Becca answer a key question about DHEA, cortisol, and adrenal health, explaining how hormone therapy influences the stress response and why supporting adrenal function is still essential. *** CONNECT:

    AI isn't coming. It's here. And it's already shaping your kids. While most parents are barely aware of what tools their children are using, classrooms are changing, homework is changing, and the way young people think and create is changing. The question isn't whether AI will be part of your family's future — it's whether you'll lead your home through it intentionally or let it shape your children unchecked. In this episode, we train fathers to think clearly about artificial intelligence: the real dangers, the subtle temptations, and the massive opportunities. What are teachers seeing in classrooms right now? How should Christian parents respond? And how do you disciple your children to use AI as a tool — not a crutch, not a shortcut, and not a master? Technology always discipled someone. The question is: will it disciple your kids… or will you? If you care about raising capable, honest, thinking adults in an AI-saturated world, this episode is for you.

    Dr. Stephanie J. Wong talks with Director of Slanted, Amy Wang about the takeaways from the bold, provocative genre-bender that uses sharp satire and sci-fi horror to interrogate beauty standards, assimilation, and the cost of belonging. The film follows Joan Huang (Shirley Chen), a high school outsider who idolizes the popular girls and dreams of becoming prom queen, but fears the only way to win is to look like every past queen whose portraits line the school halls.

Although it cost Him is Part-Time Job while a Teenager, He held on to his Beliefs to Stay in the Fight, even getting Arrested Several times & Tear Gassed, Cattle Prod Shocked, Attack Dogs & Fire Hosed because he stood with others to Petition the the Governor for the Right for Blacks to Vote.Rev. Clarence Varner served  The United States in the Marine Corps for 8 years & served in during Vietnam during the War , he was wounded. Today he serves his God,  Country & Community in the continued fight for Civil Rights*In 1965, Blacks could not: *go to eat, Blacks were served at the Side or Back Door.*Social Movie Theatres, & Clubs too*Schools in the South & other State were Segregated*Housing was Segregated in Much of America.

Jackson, active in the fight for equal rights, had tried multiple times to register to vote in Alabama and was denied each time.When Jimmie Lee Jackson saw his frail 80-year-old grandfather rudely turned away from the registrar's office in 1962 after attempting to register to vote in Marion, Ala. He knew he had to join the civil rights movement.On Feb. 18, 1965, he was among more than 200 people participating in a night march in Marion. Before they had walked a block, they were confronted by state troopers and the police chief, who ordered them to disperse.Jackson and his mother huddled for safety in a café. When Jackson's grandfather entered the café bloodied and beaten, the young man tried to take him to a hospital. But they were quickly shoved back by a crowd of club-swinging troopers and terrified marchers. Another trooper pulled his pistol and shot Jackson in the stomach. It was two hours before Jackson arrived at the hospital in Selma. He died eight days later.At one of two services for Jackson, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. told a crowd of 2,000: “Jimmie Lee Jackson's death says to us that we must work passionately and unrelentingly to make the American dream a reality. His death must prove that unmerited suffering does not go unredeemed.”© 2026 Building Abundant Success!!2026 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

Supplements, workout routines, and influencer-driven wellness advice are everywhere, making it harder than ever for young people to know what's safe, what's hype, and what truly supports their health.

    Teen mental health is in crisis—but what if some of the solutions we've embraced are actually making things worse?In this episode, I unpack a surprising finding highlighted by Olga Khazan in The Atlantic: a school program that taught teenagers dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills resulted in worse mental-health outcomes and poorer relationships with parents compared with a standard health class.How could a respected therapy approach backfire when taught in schools?We explore an uncomfortable possibility: when psychological frameworks are applied universally to healthy teens, they can sometimes create iatrogenic effects—harm caused by the intervention itself.In this episode we discuss:• Why many well-intentioned youth programs—from D.A.R.E. to self-esteem curricula—have failed to deliver results• How teaching adolescents to constantly monitor their thoughts can unintentionally increase distress• The difference between resilience and psychological capacity• Why teenagers may need challenge, responsibility, and competence-building more than emotional analysis• Practical ways parents can help children develop the ability to handle stress, failure, and uncertaintyParents today are told their children are fragile and constantly at risk. But raising mentally healthy adults may depend on something different: building the capacity to carry the weight of life rather than trying to remove the weight altogether.This episode offers a practical framework for parents who want to support their children's mental health without unintentionally undermining their strength.

It often develops because you care so deeply that you rush in to protect, soften, fix, or prevent discomfort.If you've ever felt torn between protecting your child and preparing them for real life, this conversation is for you.Seth and I talk about how learned helplessness can form when tasks are repeatedly taken over, when consequences are softened too quickly, or when rescue becomes the pattern.

    Patrick Champion grew up in Florida in what most people would consider a good family, but as a teenager he began getting into trouble, running away from home, and pushing boundaries his parents didn't know how to handle. Eventually they made a decision that would change the course of his life forever. In the middle of the night, Patrick was kidnapped from his home and transported to Tranquility Bay in Jamaica, one of the most controversial programs tied to the troubled teen industry. What was supposed to be discipline quickly turned into something much darker. Patrick spent nearly a year inside the program where he says he experienced abuse, neglect, extreme punishments, and psychological control while being cut off from the outside world. The experience left deep scars that followed him long after he returned home. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Patrick shares what really happened inside Tranquility Bay, how that experience derailed his life, led him into addiction and crime, and eventually resulted in a 10-year prison sentence in Florida. _____________________________________________ #ianbick #lockedinpodcast #tranquilitybay #troubledteenindustry #prisonstory #truecrimepodcast #kidnappedteen #prisonsurvival _____________________________________________ Connect with Patrick Champion: Instagram: @championfamily2020 YouTube: @UrFriendlyFelon Tiktok: @lastnamechampionnn _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Kidnapped in the Middle of the Night 03:01 Childhood Trauma and Family Turmoil 08:00 Growing Up in a Broken Home 13:00 School Trouble and Behavior Issues 19:00 My Reckless Teenage Years 26:59 Running Away and Living with My Dad 34:00 The Plan to Send Me Away 38:38 How I Got Sent to Tranquility Bay in Jamaica 45:11 Arriving at Tranquility Bay Teen Program 51:00 Surviving Tranquility Bay and the Troubled Teen Industry 01:03:00 Trying to Work the Program and Planning Escape 01:13:00 Restraints, Isolation, and Punishment 01:23:00 Losing Hope Inside Tranquility Bay 01:27:00 Returning Home After the Program 01:32:00 The Downward Spiral to Prison 01:41:00 Prison vs Tranquility Bay: What Was Worse? 01:51:00 Rebuilding Life After Prison 01:57:00 Recovery, Support, and Healing 02:00:00 Moving Forward and Helping Others Learn more about your ad choices.

    How do we help our teens stay hopeful when life is hard? In this episode, I talk with psychologist and optimism expert Dr. Deepika Chopra, author of The Power of Real Optimism: A Practical Science-Based Guide to Staying Resilient, Curious, and Open Even When Life Is Hard. We explore the difference between toxic positivity and real optimism, and why trying to cheer our teens up when they're upset often backfires. Dr. Chopra explains that real optimism doesn't deny hard feelings—it helps teens learn how to move through them. We also discuss why teens need validation before solutions, how parents can unintentionally fall into pessimistic thinking about their kids, and how shifting our language and mindset can help teens build resilience and confidence. Dr. Chopra shares practical ways parents can help teens develop optimism as a skill—by reminding them that emotions are temporary, helping them collect evidence of their strengths, and modeling optimism in our own lives. This conversation will encourage parents who may feel discouraged with their teen and remind them that hope and growth are always possible. 3 Takeaways for Parents 1. Validate feelings before fixing the problem. Teens aren't looking for us to immediately cheer them up or solve their problems. They want to feel heard, understood, and safe expressing their emotions. 2. Optimism is a skill—not a personality trait. Teens can learn optimism by recognizing that difficult feelings are temporary and by remembering past challenges they have overcome. 3. Focus on strengths, not just problems. When parents constantly focus on what their teen is doing wrong, it can shape how both the parent and the teen see them. Looking for evidence of strengths helps teens build confidence and resilience.

    Teens aren't getting enough sleep! And a two-decade study suggests it's getting worse. Scientists found that the number of high schoolers getting insufficient sleep — less than seven hours a night — has increased from 69% to 77%. The throughline? There wasn't one. Teens had bad sleep habits across most demographics, including race, gender and grade level. The findings were published this week in the journal JAMA.Interested in more science behind recent headlines?

    The promise of AI in education is incredible: picture infinitely patient tutors that can teach every student exactly the way they need to be taught. But the history of education technology tells us that these kinds of simple, optimistic stories are naive. Ask any teacher or student whether they feel unleashed by technology to do their best work.  Because AI has the potential to completely transform education — is already transforming it — faster than educators can keep up, it's essential that we start asking the big questions: how should these tools be used in the classroom? What's the purpose of education in an AI age? And how do we prepare students for a future that's still so radically uncertain? Our guest this week actually has some answers. Rebecca Winthrop leads the Center for Universal Education at the Brookings Institution, and they just released a report called A New Direction for Students in an AI World. She and her colleagues conducted an extensive ‘pre-mortem' of AI in the classroom, speaking with hundreds of educators, students, policy-makers, and technologists worldwide.  In this episode, Rebecca walks us through what she's learned — what's working, what's not, and most importantly, what are the concrete steps that parents, teachers, and administrators can and should take right now?   RECOMMENDED MEDIA A New Direction for Students in An AI World The Disengaged Teen by Rebecca Winthrop and Jenny Anderson   RECOMMENDED YUA EPISODES Rethinking School in the Age of AI Attachment Hacking and the Rise of AI Psychosis How OpenAI's ChatGPT Guided a Teen to His Death AI and the Future of Work: What You Need to Know Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
