In this eye-opening episode of Better Buildings for Humans, host Joe Menchefski is joined by Ann Sussman and Kelsey Bradley from the Human Architecture and Planning Institute (HAPI.org) to explore the fascinating intersection of architecture, biology, and human emotion. Ann and Kelsey reveal how our brains are hardwired to respond to certain visual cues—like faces, fractals, and even the color red—and how this understanding can revolutionize the way we design buildings and cities. From eye-tracking software that predicts where people look first, to how blank facades might make us feel uneasy, this episode unveils the science behind why some spaces feel better than others. Tune in to discover how embracing our biological instincts can lead to more humane, joyful, and walkable environments.More About Ann Sussman and Kelsey BradleyAnn Sussman, RA, an architect, researcher, and teacher is passionate about understanding how buildings impact us. She serves as president of the Human Architecture + Planning Institute, (theHapi.org), a nonprofit devoted to improving the design of the built environment through education and research. Her book Cognitive Architecture, Designing for How We Respond to the Built Environment (Routledge, 2015, 2021) won the 2016 Place Research Award from the Environmental Design Research Association (EDRA). She is co-editor of the forthcoming Handbook of Neuroscience and the Built Environment, (Routledge, 2025) due out this summer. Ann has taught a course on the human perception of architecture, Buildings, Biology + the Brain, at the BAC since 2018. Kelsey Bradley has been working in the nonprofit space since she founded Design Cause Inc. in 2016. Her work led to the successful completion of 10 new primary and secondary school classrooms across multiple communities in Cameroon and Malawi.

Real strength shows up when life knocks you down and you choose to rise with gratitude, faith, and community. Dr. Douglas Burton shares how a life-altering diagnosis transformed not just his health journey, but his entire perspective on what it means to truly live well. From the operating room to the other side of the patient experience, he opens his heart about the emotional weight of caregiving, the spiritual awakening that came through illness, and the small, intentional shifts that have brought him greater peace than ever before. His story is a powerful reminder that joy is not found in doing more—it's found in slowing down, showing up, and surrounding yourself with love. Key Takeaways: Slowing down and creating space for joy can be more healing than constant striving. Practicing daily gratitude builds emotional resilience and a deeper sense of peace. Community support is a critical part of mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Faith and surrender can bring clarity and calm when facing uncertainty or illness. True healing isn't just physical—it's also spiritual, relational, and deeply personal.   About Dr. Douglas Burton: Douglas Burton, M.D. is the Marc and Elinor Asher Spine Professor and Chair of the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at the University of Kansas Medical Center.

Struggling with leg and/or back pain and overwhelmed by confusing MRI results? You're not alone—and this episode is for you.   In this special episode of The Spine Pod, hosts Courtney Schutze and Brady Riesgraf rejoin forces with Dr. Ahilan Sivaganesan (Dr. Siva), a neurosurgeon building an all-encompassing spine program with Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) at NCH in Naples, Florida. After creating a successful practice at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, Dr. Siva has taken a bold step into a new frontier—starting from scratch and building a spine program designed to treat the breadth of back and leg pain patients that all too often ‘fall through the cracks.' His goal is to design a new-style spine practice, utilizing the whole spectrum of the care continuum—from conservative care options to surgical treatment methods, specifically aimed at addressing patients' needs earlier, more thoughtfully, and with more innovative options.   Dr. Siva offers an honest take on the realities of spine care today—especially for the millions of patients suffering from chronic low back pain who often fall into the category of "non-specific back pain." In this episode, he shares why it's time for spine surgeons to reframe their role—not just as proceduralists, but as clinicians.   In the second half of this episode, Dr. Siva breaks down the difference between imaging findings and a true diagnosis. He outlines how to navigate complex radiology reports and explores how endoscopic techniques and motion-preserving implants can offer outpatient alternatives to the traditional spinal fusion. He also walks us through real patient images, demystifying common findings like facet degeneration, spondylosis, and spondylolisthesis, and how a thoughtful, diagnosis-first approach can radically improve care.   In this episode, you'll learn: Imaging ≠ Diagnosis MRI results like “annular tear”, “facet arthritis”, and “stenosis” are just part of the story—and why diagnosis should start with your symptoms and physical exam, not your scan. Why So Many Patients Get Lost in the Care Cycle Many people with chronic back and/or leg pain get stuck in a frustrating loop: bouncing between PT, injections, or fusion recommendations—without fully understanding what's causing the pain. How Comprehensive Spine Care Can Redefine the Surgeon's Role Dr. Siva shares how he's reshaped his own mindset: from "what surgery can I offer?" to "what's the root cause of this person's pain?"—and how this shift is foundational to future spine care. The Emergence of Endoscopic Spine Surgery as a First-Line Surgical Intervention For well-selected patients with discogenic or facetogenic back pain, endoscopy offers an outpatient, motion-preserving early-stage alternative—without the drawbacks of traditional fusion. The Importance of Building Comprehensive, Fusion-Free Spine Practices Dr. Siva and his team are using this fresh start to create a more thoughtful, tech-forward, and patient-centered model for spine care—one that listens to patient goals and preserves motion whenever possible. Where You Fit in the Continuum of Care Whether you're at the beginning of your back pain journey or feeling stuck after years of dead-ends, Dr. Siva outlines a more personalized, stepwise approach—one that gives patients options before jumping to fusion.   With a passion for patient-centered decision-making, innovation in technique, and humility in practice, Dr. Siva is helping lead a quiet revolution in how back pain is evaluated and treated—and invites us all to be a part of that evolution. Whether you're a surgeon, patient, or industry professional, this episode offers new insight into how we understand—and treat—the most common cause of disability in the world: chronic back pain.   Learn more about Dr. Siva and HSS at NCH: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ahilansiva/ Dr. Siva at HSS at NCH: https://www.hss.edu/physicians_sivaganesan-ahilan.asp If you would like to schedule a consultation with Dr. Siva you can call or email his practice at: 239-624-1700 or ahilan.siva@nchmd.org   The information in this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.
