Caller Questions & Discussion: Becky challenges us in the New Year to reduce the amount of time to get out of a bad state of mind with help from Ephesians 4. Should I separate from my husband to overcome my unforgiveness? My husband left a month ago; what can I do if he blames me and doesn’t like confrontation? How can I help my daughter-in-law? My son is a narcissist and verbally abusive to her.
While endometriosis is highly associated with Chronic Pelvic Pian (CPP), some women may suffer from a different primary or coexistent secondary etiology: pelvic vascular congestion, called vascular origin (VO)- CPP. Although controversial as an entity, there have been diagnostic algorithms published (via pelvic ultrasound. MRI, or venography) for this condition. Approximately 10-40% of chronic pelvic pain cases may be attributed to pelvic vascular congestion (now termed pelvic venous disorder), though estimates vary considerably depending on the population studied and diagnostic criteria used. In premenopausal women specifically, the prevalence appears higher. One study found that 8% of all premenopausal women had documented chronic pelvic pain of unclear etiology along with dilated ovarian and pelvic veins on cross-sectional imaging. Therapies for this have been limited. Flavonoids are abundant in a colorful diet of fruits, vegetables, tea, and wine, with common sources including citrus fruits (flavanones), berries, apples, grapes (flavan-3-ols/anthocyanins), onions, kale, broccoli (flavonols), and tea, cocoa, red wine (flavan-3-ols), plus soybeans (isoflavones), all providing antioxidants and potential health benefits like better heart and brain health. On Dec. 23, 2025, in the journal Phlebology, researchers published a systematic review on the potential benefits of specific flavonoid mixtures which may provide relief to VO-CPP.

In this episode, Amanda Anguish talks with Dr. Roger Seheult, pulmonary, critical care, sleep, and internal medicine specialist, about how sunlight, circadian rhythms, and daily habits shape physical and mental health. Dr. Seheult explains the science behind light exposure, infrared energy, and green spaces, how modern indoor life disrupts our biological clocks, and what simple changes—like morning sun, earlier meals, and outdoor time—can boost mood, immunity, sleep, and longevity.—
It was two years into a vicious cycle of depression and Mike Doughty was falling apart. He was taking more Ambien than he had been prescribed, importing huge boxes of the stuff from India, waking up to find packs of cigarettes, candy wrappers, and pizza boxes with no memory of leaving his Memphis home to make such purchases. He was convinced something was deeply wrong with his heart even though every doctor said there wasn't. Finally, he checked into an in-patient facility that turned out to be wonderful and productive. Then he checked out. Then Mike, a recovering addict, started drinking heavily and smoking weed. Then he checked back in again. Mike Doughty is showing improvement now and talks about his treatment, his recovery, and touring again with his band Soul Coughing again 24 years after a bitter breakup.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

This week on ShrinkChicks, Em & Jen wrap up 2025 with a topic that might just be on all of our minds: Do I need therapy going into the new year? They talk about how tough this year felt for many people, how finances and burnout impact mental health care, and what “needing” therapy even means.They answer questions about feeling lost professionally, the fear of crying in therapy, worrying that starting therapy will make things worse, and how to tell the difference between pausing therapy and running from it. They also discuss how therapists can gauge whether they need consultation, supervision, or their own therapy, and what to do when a therapist simply isn't a fit. In Dear Em & Jen, they respond to a listener navigating a shared mental illness with their partner, and conflicting opinions within their treatment teams.Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!

Caller Questions & Discussion: Marc discusses what it looks like for a parent to let go by offering their children freedom, and he gives the example of Jesus going missing when he was a child in Jerusalem. A few months ago, I realized I'm a covert narcissist, my family had me admitted to a mental health facility, and I threatened suicide; what do I do now? If I receive a blessing from God, but then turn around and don't accept the blessing; do you have any insight into that? I'm a single mom in love with a man in meth recovery, and I struggle with anxious attachment; what can I do? My bipolar nephew and his pregnant wife moved in with my stepmother and me; since it's her house, am I supposed to stand up for her?

The Modern Therapist's Survival Guide with Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy
Replay Episode: Therapy As a Political Act with Dr. Travis Heath In this reprise episode, Curt and Katie revisit their powerful conversation with Dr. Travis Heath on why therapy is inherently a political act. Originally recorded in June 2020, just days after the murder of George Floyd, this episode examines how therapists navigate racism, systems of oppression, political overwhelm, and community trauma in the therapy room. Curt and Katie reflect on how the cultural landscape has shifted over the past five years, why Travis's insights still resonate, and what therapists must continue doing to stay engaged in anti racist, decolonizing, and community centered work.

Dave is familiar to audiences through shows like Gold Rush, but what stood out most in this conversation had nothing to do with television. It was his perspective on work. On the trades. And on what happens when a person is given the dignity, responsibility, and opportunity to build something with their hands.Dave talks openly about how the trades can be therapy. How work itself can be a pathway through hardship—helping people process difficult seasons, regain confidence, and even escape abusive or limiting situations. In a country that offers the freedom and opportunity to work, the trades can quite literally change the trajectory of a life. But only if we choose to see their value. That choice matters. Because when we recognize the importance of the work being done, we begin to understand the people doing it. And when we understand the people, we begin to see the true power of the skilled trades. This conversation dives deeply into mining—an industry that has been part of America since the very beginning. Mining has provided not only gold and precious metals, but opportunity, stability, and long-term security. It has helped build the foundation of this country, and it continues to play a critical role in what lies ahead. Dave is clear about one thing: he doesn't want to be the story. He wants their stories to be told—the men and women who show up, do the work, and quietly carry the weight of industries most people never think about. His hope is that through understanding the trades, others will recognize the pride, purpose, and potential found within them. In this first episode of Season Three of The Line Podcast, we invite you to step up to the line with us. To have a real, honest conversation. To reflect on where we've come from—and to look ahead at the future in front of us. As we approach 250 years of America, we believe that future is still built by hands willing to work.Happy New Year.

Internalized negative self-talk trapping ND lives? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April unpacks Complex PTSD/ADHD mental health with Karen Dwyer-Tesoriero, NYC/FL psychotherapist (25+ years social work/child welfare/intergenerational trauma/CPTSD expert). Using EMDR/IFS/Polyvagal/somatic therapies, Karen undoes limiting beliefs for authenticity/goals; life coaching for non-NY/FL via TikTok, plus parent support for emotional regulation. Key insights: Negative self-talk: Childhood messages (e.g., "lazy" from ADHD struggles) internalized—higher CPTSD risk in ND (adverse experiences like unmet needs). CPTSD vs. PTSD: Relational/micro-traumas (e.g., single-parent absences/narcissistic abuse) vs. single events (war/accidents); leads to anxiety/depression/avoidance. Polyvagal theory: Bottom-up body focus (window of tolerance/fight-flight-freeze/dorsal shutdown); regulate via sensations (e.g., neutral feet vs. chest tension)—ADHD/autism concrete (EMDR eye movement/tappers). EMDR for ND: Bilateral stimulation desensitizes trauma memories; evolving for autism/ADHD (virtual/no light bar); process emotions concretely ("what happened next?"). Rewriting stories: Narrative/motivational interviewing challenges origins ("is it true? strengths? passions?"); experiment authenticity (small steps like "hi" to vendor). Attachment styles: Healthy (communication/vulnerability); avoidant (infidelity/avoid intimacy); anxious (constant doubt/people-pleasing); disorganized (both)—ND rejection sensitivity amplifies. Addictions/substances: Beyond alcohol/drugs (food/shopping/exercise/secrets); red flags (hiding behaviors); regulate dopamine healthily (breaks/routines). Advocacy/relationships: Therapy fit crucial (ask trainings/referrals); healthy dating (experiment/vulnerability); parents model regulation to minimize messages. For autistic/ADHD young adults navigating independence/trauma, Karen's vibe: "You're not broken—rewrite for worth." Free resources at kdtesoriero.lcsw.net; email coffeewithkaren@gmail.com.

Send us a textSleigh bells are packed away, but the glasses are out, starting with Kringle Juice from Big Ditch Brewing—a hazy IPA that looks like Christmas and drinks like clean citrus and pine. We dig into the aroma, that first juicy hit, the subtle dryness as it warms, and why it stacks next to Elvis Juice without feeling like a clone. At 7% ABV and easygoing bitterness, it's a quiet holiday hero for anyone who wants a festive can and a year-round flavor.The chat opens up from there. We trade stories about how family traditions shift once the grandparents stop hosting—why some branches drift into smaller circles and how one person stepping up can bring the tribe back together. It's a candid, funny, and honest look at gathering without the pressure of a calendar date, where the real win is people in a room, not perfection on the table. Along the way we toss in gaming chaos: accidental alliances, surprise ambushes, and the social weirdness of PvP that still keeps us logging on. It's community, whether you find it around a tree, a couch, or a loading screen.Then we pour dessert: Hardywood's Peppermint Bark Stout. Chocolate-forward, softly minty, and lighter than most pastry stouts at 9.2% ABV, it slides between milk and dark chocolate notes with a finish that feels like a winter nightcap. We talk pairings, why it works after dinner, and where it lands on our keeper scale.

He discusses meeting his husband on Gay.com, his trick to manipulate a partner into having better taste, and the wild reason why everyone was throwing up during his marriage proposal.

In the final Volatility Views of 2025, host Mark Longo is joined by Russell Rhoads (Dr. VIX) and Michael Listman (UVXY Trader) to dissect a wild year in the markets. From the "Santa Claus Rally" to the crushing of the VIX, we break down what traders need to know heading into 2026. In This Episode: Volatility Review: A look at the S&P 500 hitting all-time highs and the recent "volatility execution." Why did the Santa Rally take so long to arrive? UVXY Deep Dive: Michael Listman breaks down the UVXY reverse split mechanics. We discuss why liquidity is the best argument for UVXY and how to manage the "beta slippage" game. The Pairs Trade: Exploring the strategy of pairing UVXY vs. SVXY (or SVIX) to capture slippage while managing directional exposure. VIX Term Structure: Why the current curve is "steep" and what a 5-point premium in February futures says about 2026 market expectations. VIX Options Flow: Analyzing the "Jan 17 Puts" and the mysterious ongoing activity in the VIX 200 strike puts. The Crystal Ball: The team places their final VIX cash predictions for the first week of January 2026.

Julie Shiller, MS, CSCS, CMPC Candidate, who is also pursuing her clinical licensure. She is an AthMindset® Mental Performance Practitioner and sport and performance therapist with Align Bay Area Sport Psychology. A former youth athlete who left sport without the body-confidence and mental-health support she needed, Julie now channels that lived experience into helping athletes and coaches thrive as whole people.With more than 15 years in coaching and human performance—including extensive work as a strength and conditioning coach—Julie guides growth across the physical, mental, and emotional domains. She is also a trainer for Positive Coaching Alliance and the founder of The Other 23 Hours Coaching, where she supports athletes in the transformational moments that happen outside of practice and competition.Whether she's working with youth competitors, collegiate teams, or coaches seeking to build healthy, high-performing environments, Julie brings empathy, evidence-based practice, and a holistic perspective to her work.Chapters0:00 — Athlete Mindset & SportsEpreneur0:17 — Cold open + energy check1:09 — Welcome & introduction to Julie Shiller2:00 — Julie's background: coaching, performance, and lived experience4:10 — Leaving sport without support & why it matters6:45 — Athlete identity and body confidence9:30 — Eating disorder awareness in athletics12:10 — Why the “other 23 hours” matter most15:05 — Coaches as culture-setters18:40 — Starting with the coach before the athlete22:15 — Building team-wide support systems26:30 — Youth and collegiate athlete considerations30:05 — Integrating physical, mental, and emotional performance34:10 — What healthy sport environments actually look like38:20 — Advice for coaches and practitioners41:31 — Closing reflections & appreciationInformation and short-form content on athletes and eating disordersGo here for resources and educationA note on body confidence: The sense of comfort, acceptance, and positive attitude a person has toward their own body. It's not just about appearance—it's about how you feel in your own skin, respecting and appreciating your body's abilities, and being less influenced by societal pressures or unrealistic ideals.For athletes, body confidence is particularly important because it affects performance, recovery, and mental health. Athletes with strong body confidence are more likely to trust their bodies, maintain healthy habits, and enjoy their sport without being hindered by anxiety or shame about their appearance.More content by SportsEpreneur on athlete mental health:Why players are taking control of their health | The pressure placed on college athletes | Teaching resilience in youth sportsConnect with Julie Shiller:LinkedIn | InstagramThe Other 23 Hours CoachingConnect with the host & podcast production team:Lisa Bonta Sumii: LinkedIn | InstagramSportsEpreneur: LinkedIn | XCredits: Athlete Mindset is part of SportsEpreneurProduced by KazCM and also featured on the QuietLoud Studios podcast network.Beat Provided By https://freebeats.io | Produced By White HotIf you or someone you know is strugglingIf you're experiencing thoughts of suicide or emotional distress, please reach out for support:988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (US): Call or text 988Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741International resources: https://www.opencounseling.com/suicide-hotlinesYou're not alone, and support is available.

The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk.

Music therapy also provides avenues for communication that can be helpful to those who find it difficult to express themselves in words.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Chris shares that he struggles to cry, but every Christmas Eve he gets the gift of tears. Let your tears teach you what is most important and most hopeful in life. Chris also shares that our emotions are a muscle; if his sad muscles get strengthened, then his resiliency for sadness increases. If you live your life to avoid loss, you will also avoid life. What are one or two ways to start trusting God when trusting anyone is difficult or feels impossible? I'm in a new church, and they've said you shouldn't really be in the presence of the opposite sex; how do I not let that throw me off spiritually?

Send us a textTransitioning from fellowship to your first attending job? You're probably not prepared for the business side of medicine—and that's exactly the problem Dr. Tung Giep addresses in this episode. Dr. Giep, a neonatologist with over 30 years of experience, shares hard-earned lessons from building and selling a private practice in Houston, navigating toxic work environments, and eventually finding his place in telemedicine. His new book, The Business of Medicine: The Definitive Guide to Help New Physicians Start Their Career on the Right Path and Avoid Costly Mistakes, tackles what medical training ignores: contract negotiation, non-competes, choosing the right CPA and attorney, and understanding your self-worth.Ben and Dr. Giep discuss why new physicians get blindsided by job offers, how to vet a practice properly, and the reality of community neonatology versus academic medicine. They also explore the growing role of AI in healthcare and what it means for the next generation of physicians. Whether you're finishing fellowship or reconsidering your current position, this conversation offers practical guidance on taking control of your career—and avoiding costly mistakes along the way.

In this episode, Dr. Christian Schmahl from Heidelberg University and Mannheim, Germany, answers a listener's question and talks about his experimental research assessing how seeing blood affects heart rate and arousal among both those who engage in nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and those who don't. He also shares insights into the role of self and blood in ritual and nonritual self-injury, including examples from different cultures about how they may interpret blood differently in the context of self-harm and even trance-like states.To learn more about Dr. Schmahl and his work, visit here.
