Hey Tinnitus Friends and Family, This is your host tinnitus coach Frieder with another tinnitus relief podcast epsiode. Most people think relief comes from silence — from finally getting rid of the sound. But the truth is, it's not your ears that need fixing… it's how your brain responds to tinnitus that makes all the difference. In this video, I'll show you: ✅ Why chasing silence keeps your brain stuck in the tinnitus loop ✅ How to shift your perspective and calm your nervous system ✅ The mindset change that helps your brain retrain itself to see tinnitus as safe You'll learn why true relief doesn't come from waiting for a cure — it comes from understanding your brain and teaching it to tune tinnitus into the background. Enjoy and hear you in the next one! Frieder

Your doctor just became your worst enemy. When the medical establishment brands chronic dizziness conditions like PPPD, MDDS, and vestibular migraines as "incurable," they're not just wrong, they're actively destroying lives through calculated ignorance. Dr. Yonit Arthur, a board-certified audiologist with a doctorate from Purdue University, drops a bombshell: patients experiencing 24/7 sensory collapse, paralyzing terror, and complete disorientation aren't suffering from permanent damage. They're trapped in a fear loop that doctors reinforce with every "learn to manage it" prescription. After watching the medical system fail hundreds of desperate patients who've seen 20, 30, even 40 specialists, Dr. Arthur launched The Steady Coach a popular YouTube channel with free courses to expose an uncomfortable truth. These "chronic" conditions persist because patients have been programmed to believe they're broken. We discuss the way out. https://thesteadycoach.com/https://www.youtube.com/@thesteadycoach Visit Center for Integrated Behavioral HealthDr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

The hum of motorcycle engines, the rushing sound of the wind, and that high-pitched ringing that lingers after long rides—these sounds define our experiences as riders. But what happens when we actively quiet this noise? What clarity emerges when we protect ourselves not just from physical sound, but from mental distractions as well?After years of riding without adequate ear protection and developing tinnitus, I've discovered something unexpected: wearing quality earplugs doesn't diminish my riding experience—it transforms it. I'm more observant, less fatigued, and see the world around me with newfound clarity. This revelation sparked a deeper question: could we experience similar benefits by reducing the noise that clutters our minds?We're bombarded daily by an endless stream of information—24-hour news cycles, social media feeds brimming with outrage, work stressors, and constant notifications from every device we own. This mental cacophony is like riding without protection down the highway at 70 mph—a deafening roar that leaves us exhausted and disconnected from what truly matters. "Doom scrolling" triggers chemical reactions that make us crave more negative information while simultaneously draining our emotional reserves.Our motorcycles offer the perfect antidote—they're freedom machines that naturally guide us into mindfulness. When riding, we instinctively filter out the world's chatter and focus on the present moment: the feel of the bike, the beauty of our surroundings, the subtle cues from our bodies and machines. This state of focused awareness is perhaps the greatest gift of motorcycling.Challenge yourself this week: spend more time on your motorcycle, identify one source of noise in your life, and consciously limit your exposure to it. Create space for silence and joy. You might be surprised by what you hear when the noise finally quiets—perhaps the voice of your true self, your kind and gentle self who happens to ride a motorcycle.

Plötzlich dreht sich alles – im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes. Schwindel kann aus dem Nichts kommen und uns komplett aus der Bahn werfen. Warum das so ist, was hilft und wie man wieder festen Boden unter den Füßen bekommt – darum geht's in dieser Folge. Schwindel ist als Symptom nicht nur extrem unangenehm, sondern kann auch viele verschiedene Ursachen haben. Störungen des Gleichgewichts sind nach Schmerzen der zweithäufigste Grund für einen Arztbesuch. Etwa jede*r Zweite erlebt im Laufe seines Lebens mindestens einmal das Gefühl des Drehens, Schwankens oder Kippens. Was hinter Schwindel stecken kann – und wie man ihn wieder loswird – darüber spricht Host Niki Löwenstein mit Dr. Uso Walter, Facharzt für Hals-Nasen-Ohrenheilkunde in Duisburg, spezialisiert auf die Behandlung von Schwindelerkrankungen und Tinnitus. Podcast-Host Niki kennt das Thema nur zu gut. Schwindelanfälle haben sie ins Krankenhaus gebracht. In diesem Gespräch teilt sie ihre persönlichen Erfahrungen. Wichtig: Schwindel ist nicht gleich Schwindel. Die Bandbreite reicht von harmlosen, kurzfristigen Gleichgewichtsstörungen bis zu chronischen Erkrankungen, die den Alltag massiv beeinträchtigen können. Häufige Auslöser sind Probleme im Innenohr. Gerade weil das Symptom so vielfältig ist, suchen Betroffene manchmal lange nachhaltige Heilung. Diese Folge hilft dir zu verstehen, woher Schwindel kommen kann, und welche Wege es gibt, wieder sicheren Boden unter den Füßen zu finden. Was wir außerdem aus dieser Folge mitnehmen: Welche unterschiedlichen Arten von Schwindel es gibt Was die kleine Kristalle im Innenohr treiben Welche Aufgabe das „Labyrinth" hat Welche Informationen man als Schwindelpatient*in parat haben sollte Ob unser Gleichgewichtsorgan altersschwach wird?

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:    Alicja: Hello Dr. Cabral, I hope you're doing well. My question is about dental sealants. My kids' dentist recommended them for my 8 yo daughter and I blindly believed it was a good advice. Later he recommended them for my younger daughter, but this time I looked up what are dental sealants and it turns out it is plastic. Since my older daughter has them already (on 4 of her molars) I'm struggling to make a decision which is less of two evils: leaving the sealants because the damage has already been done, or should we have them removed, risking that some plastic will be absorbed by her body during scraping the sealants of her teeth?                                                                                                                                               Holly: Hi! I need help for my 20-year-old daughter. She has been dealing with an issue of having very terrible smelling urine, yet labs show no bladder or kidney infection. She says there's minor discomfort after emptying her bladder. Despite undergoing multiple physical exams and lab tests, everything has come back normal. Her urologist prescribed Solifenacin several months ago, but it hasn't provided any relief. She is staying hydrated, avoiding spicy foods, and has eliminated caffeine from her diet. This issue has persisted for a long time, and it's affecting her emotionally—she is becoming quite depressed over it. Her health history is that she is highly allergic to cow's milk and peanuts/tree nuts and has had eczema since she was a baby. Any advice is greatly appreciated!                             Kaitlin: I've been having tinnitus for the past 4 months. It started out in one ear, then both ears, and then transitioned to full head buzzing. It feels like my brain is attached to an electrical socket. I have also been experiencing extreme anxiety, insomnia, fatigue, and soreness(esp neck). I am a very healthy 31 year old-eat an extremely clean diet and very fit. I did notice my symptoms worsening after switching to methylated vitamins. It also intensifies with heavy lifts & exercise. I did the hair test and it showed elevation in mercury and aluminum and every mineral ratio was out of whack. I also did the OATS test and it showed some depletion of b vitamins as well as low levels of neurotransmitters. I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm scared supps are going to make it worse again.             Riela: My husband has had rather severe problems with vertigo for these past years. It seems to have been triggered by having Covid, and also a period of high stress; but he also had a blow to the head some years ago, and I'm wondering if that may be a cause as well. He's been on Pristiq for some time, and doesn't have as many problems with vertigo now, but he would like to get off it. Anxiety or stress worsens his vertigo. I'd appreciate it if you could help us find a direction, healthwise, that we could go.                                                                                                                                                           Jen: Hello! I enjoy your podcast and it has helped me so much over the years. I have a question regarding contact lenses. It has been reported that most are full of PFAS. I stopped wearing my contacts after wearing them for over 30 years when I heard this. I hate wearing glasses and am wondering if wearing contacts is truly dangerous. I found one brand that claims to be PFAS free (Eiyan), but they don't cover my prescription. In addition to this, most contacts now have UV protection which I am also concerned blocks sunlight signals from entering my eyes, and thus disrupting my circadian rhythm. Could you please share your thoughts on both issues.

Hey Tinnitus Friends & Family, In this powerful episode, I sit down with Rick, a former member of MyTinnitus.Club, who went from relying on medications and feeling completely stuck… to experiencing deep calm and confidence in his tinnitus habituation journey. Rick's story is one many of us can relate to:

Send us a textJeffery Reagan's journey from surviving a heart transplant to pioneering tinnitus care innovation offers a masterclass in turning personal adversity into meaningful healthcare transformation. After experiencing a heart attack on Mount Kilimanjaro in 2007, followed by a catastrophic cardiac event in 2011 that left him dependent on a mechanical heart for three years, Reagan gained profound appreciation for patient-centered healthcare excellence. When he later developed tinnitus himself, he recognized the same fragmented care patterns that plague many chronic conditions.The tragic 2021 suicide of Texas Roadhouse CEO Kent Taylor due to severe tinnitus became Reagan's watershed moment. Having never realized tinnitus could drive someone to such desperation, Reagan committed to leveraging his unique background in data modeling and healthcare systems to create something revolutionary: the Tinnitus Learning Health Network (formerly Stop the Ring).Unlike traditional advocacy organizations, Reagan's approach places patients at the center while fostering structured collaboration between clinicians and researchers – what he calls "the golden triad." This learning health network doesn't focus solely on research but rather on measurable outcomes using quality improvement techniques that have proven successful in other medical fields. By collecting comprehensive data across demographics, tinnitus subtypes, and treatment interventions, the network identifies patterns that help match specific patient subgroups with the most effective care approaches.With renowned experts like Dr. James Henry and Dr. Donna Murray on his team, Reagan is building what he describes as a "near real-time clinical practice guideline" – one that evolves monthly based on actual patient outcomes rather than being updated once per decade. The vision includes establishing pilot sites by 2026, growing to 30-50 locations within five years, and ultimately securing insurance coverage for the 50 million Americans affected by tinnitus.For those suffering in silence after being told "there's nothing we can do," Reagan's message resonates powerfully: there is hope, there are effective management strategies, and through better data and collaboration, we can transform tinnitus care forever. Listen to discover how this groundbreaking approach could finally bring relief to millions.

Livia answers a listener question about how to get rid of headaches, tinnitus, and dizziness in anorexia recovery. Want more? Find my books, courses, and coaching programs at livlabelfree.com Episode transcript: Hello my friends, well today is another Q&A episode and today's question comes from jellyfish1093 on YouTube and they asked if I could do an episode on physical and mental symptoms no one talks about when in anorexia. And obviously there are an infinite number of things no one talks about – or rather, not enough people are talking about – when it comes to eating disorders, especially when said eating disorders intertwine with autism and LGBTQ+ identity and chronic illness and all the other things that well, no one talks about! And by this point, I do hope you know that a huge goal of mine with this podcast and with my books and my courses is to shed light on these underserved topics because they're things I wish I had known during my own recovery. They're the things my family wished they'd known because they would have been better able to support me. They're things that all healthcare professionals SHOULD know so that they can help individuals unleash their full potential rather than trying to treat a “disorder” that's merely a manifestation of, again, everything no one talks about. Anyways, all that being said, because we've of course gotta have some direction, I replied to jellyfish1093 asking if they could elaborate on what stage of recovery they're in and specifically what symptoms they wanted me to talk about. And here's what they replied: “I'm currently in quasi recovery. My weight is very low and I am still exercising every day and struggling immensely. I am eating 4 meals a day but have been experiencing headaches, dizziness, tinnitus, and other symptoms like brain fog, extreme anxiety and depression. I also have Autism. Just looking to find hope that if I can fully recover that these symptoms can go away. For 4 years I have been trying to find out why these symptoms are happening but now I am wondering if they are all related to anorexia? Just trying to find hope. Thank you.” Well we've got a lot to get into and I am super excited to get into it because, as you may have guessed, I did some research (which basically means I went into multiple research rabbit holes, a very autistic trait, I might add) and I paired my findings with my own lived experience and those of my clients to now bring you this podcast! So buckle up because I'm going to take you on a journey to what I've learned so that hopefully, jellyfish1093, this gives you hope, and to anyone else with similar experiences, I hope this gives YOU hope as well. So without further ado, let's dive in! Alright so we need to establish the facts first. Based on what jellyfish1093 (I freaking love saying that username so thank you for gifting me this opportunity to have a laugh), we're going to establish as a fact that you are malnourished. Your weight is low, you're engaging in exercise that you probably shouldn't be, and you're not eating enough. So, you're in a state of energy deficit. Quasi recovery aside, the fact is that your body is depleted. And the fact that I'm really hammering this down right now is because when the body is in a state of energy deficit, nothing can function correctly. And I mean nothing. Because the truth is that the human body is nothing more than a living organism that uses energy and requires that energy to be replenished. And if that energy replenishment – AKA eating and drinking – is hard for you, trust me, I am right there with ya my friend. The amount of times that I have wished that I could photosynthesize, the amount of times I have wished this body didn't even have needs. The amount of times I have wished I didn't have to drink or eat or sleep or shower or clean or whatever it is that we have to do on a daily basis just because we have bodies…my god, it's fucking exhausting. But all those feelings aside, the bottom line is that we do have bodies. And these bodies do have needs. So what happens when we don't give our body what it needs? What happens is that the body goes into energy conservation mode. It does everything humanly possible (no pun intended) to not use up its limited resources. Now, I'm not going to elaborate on the science behind this too deeply because I literally wrote an entire book called How to Beat Extreme Hunger explaining energy deficit and how this leads to energy debt and why extreme hunger is your body's attempt at getting you back into homeostasis, and of course, in that book I also share my lived experience around all my recovery fears including mental hunger just being a bad habit, that I would become addicted to food and develop binge eating disorder if I gave into my extreme hunger, and of course, I share how to make peace with weight gain because I'm autistic and philosophical and the whole “oh just love your body and appreciate what it can do for you” NEVER resonated with me because to be honest my friends, I still feel hella trapped in this body. I mean for real, it's too freaking constraining and demanding. But we're not gonna go there right now because we were gonna talk about headaches and dizziness and tinnitus and all the things jellyfish1093 has asked about. But yeah, shameless plug for all my books right now because they're awesome and I worked really hard on them and you can find them all at livlabelfreebooks.com or on Amazon. But now back to the episode and why it's so important to understand that energy deficit AKA restriction causes the body to try and conserve energy is that this energy conservation causes all kinds of symptoms that, to put it bluntly, fucking suck. You weaken your digestive system which means that when you start eating again in recovery you'll feel really sick and bloated. You starve your brain which means that there will be imbalances in ALL the neurotransmitters, so hello anxiety and depression. And if you compound energy deficit with being autistic, which I'm just gonna go off on a limb here and say you probably feel permanently burnt out just trying to navigate a world not built for you, well when you take all these factors into account, well no wonder you're in so much pain all the time. But here is the plot twist: You're not broken. You don't need to be fixed. What you need is to create safety within yourself and your environment. But that's of course just the overarching message of all of this. Because essentially, the trauma caused by being autistic in a non-accommodating world compounded with the trauma of an eating disorder, while ironically being the ED being a trauma response in and of itself, well all of this just creates a never-ending spiral of fight-or-flight mode, which is incredibly energetically demanding, and thus not sustainable. So how does all of this connect to anorexia symptoms, specifically headaches and tinnitus? Well, there are a lot of different kinds of headaches, but for me personally, my headaches were always tension headaches. This might sound kinda weird, but I felt my headaches from the front of my head all the way down to my lower back and this is because I carry so much stress with me all the time, and honestly, I still do. But when you are malnourished, your body is way more fragile so everything you experience is going to be experienced on infinitely high volume. This is why we have zero flexibility when we have eating disorders. The body and brain simply do not have enough energy to consider other options. So hello black and white thinking and what is often termed as “rigid” thinking. Now of course there's nuance to this because autistic people often already have difficulty with change. So again, add malnutrition to that, and you've practically just turned that autism dial up a few notches. This is also why many people who are not autistic can actually display autistic traits during active eating disorders. But again, that's a whole nother topic which you can learn more about in my Autistically ED-Free Academy at livlabelfree.com/group or you can book a 1-1 coaching session with me at livlabelfree.com/coaching if you'd like to work with me privately. So, jellyfish1093 and anyone else listening, I don't know what kinds of headaches you're experiencing or if there's anything that makes them worse or better, but what I do know is that restriction is fueling your fight-or-flight response, which scientifically speaking can cause headaches! Why? Well, your body perceives restriction, so energy deficit, as a famine. When you're not eating enough, your nervous system believes there aren't enough resources. I mean, why else would you be starving yourself? As I'm sure I don't have to tell you, a lack of resources is one of the greatest threats to human survival! But because your body is designed to do everything in its power to ensure your survival, it's going to activate that fight-or-flight mode so you can fight or flee whatever is causing you to be malnourished. Of course, your nervous system that obviously doesn't have a logical thinking organ cannot know that you're not actually in a famine environment, and it doesn't know that you're purposely restricting for other reasons, including fear of weight gain, autistic masking, and all the other things I talk about on this podcast and in my books and courses. Now, why is this relevant? Because when you're in a permanent state of fight-or-flight mode, your body is literally tensing up ALL the time! Your neck muscles, your shoulder muscles, your scalp muscles, everything is constantly clenched and ready for battle. And, well, can you guess what happens when those muscles stay contracted for weeks, months, perhaps even years? Hello tension headaches! Of course, tension headaches aren't the only type of headaches that restriction causes. Now, let's talk about what happens when your brain is literally running on empty. As I've talked about before on this podcast, your brain requires glucose – so, sugar! – to function. This is why during extreme hunger, we crave so much sugar. We're not becoming “addicted to sugar,” we're not developing binge eating disorder, our brain is literally screaming for us to help it heal! But because restriction depletes your brain of the glucose it needs to function, you experience not only headaches caused by blood sugar spikes and crashes, but you experience that brain fog, anxiety, depression, and other mental health struggles jellyfish1093 mentioned. So you may be wondering, how the heck does this blood sugar stuff work? Well, when you're engaging with an eating disorder, your blood sugar is basically on a constant roller coaster ride because energy deficit makes it harder for the body to properly regulate blood sugar. Why? Because regulating blood sugar costs energy, and well, you don't have enough of that, remember?! Your liver, which normally stores glucose and releases it when needed, doesn't have enough reserves to keep your levels stable. So even if you do eat something, your blood sugar might spike too high and then crash even harder, creating this vicious cycle of glucose instability that leaves your brain in constant distress. And then there's electrolyte imbalances. When you're malnourished, your sodium, potassium, and magnesium levels get thrown off. These minerals fuel the electrical system of your body – they're what allow your nerves to send signals properly. So when those levels are imbalanced, which they absolutely will be during restriction, your nervous system starts misfiring. And where do you feel that neurological chaos? Yep, in your head! So moral of the headache story before we move onto tinnitus is that yes, absolutely anorexia can cause headaches and they're probably not some mysterious separate condition that you need to worry about on top of everything else you're already dealing with. Your headaches are your body's completely predictable response to being in energy deficit – whether that's from your nervous system being stuck in fight-or-flight mode, your brain running on fumes, or your electrical system going haywire from electrolyte imbalances. The really important thing I want you to hear, jellyfish1093, is that these headaches aren't permanent. They're not a sign that you've broken your body beyond repair. They're actually proof that your body is still fighting for you! When you give your body consistent, adequate nutrition – which is probably more than just four meals a day and probably less exercise and yes, weight gain – these systems can and do heal. Your nervous system can calm down, your blood sugar can stabilize, and your electrolytes can rebalance. It takes time, and to be honest, it often gets worse before it gets better. This is where coaching can be so helpful because you have someone who's been there supporting you every step of the way! So if you are interested in working with me, do schedule a discovery session because I would love to meet you and create your freedom plan. And now, onto tinnitus! So jellyfish1093 I'm actually so happy you mentioned this because I used to have really bad tinnitus during my anorexia and in quasi recovery and I had never even connected the dots to malnutrition until your comment, so thank you for enlightening me! And before we get into the science behind how malnutrition can cause tinnitus, it's worth saying what tinnitus is because it can kinda sound like a fancy word! So tinnitus is a condition where a person perceives ringing, buzzing, hissing, or other noises in their ears, even when there is no external sound source. It can be caused by several factors, including aging, ear infections, and can be a side effect of certain medications. But what's not talked about ANYWHERE is how tinnitus can be caused by anorexia! But here comes Reddit to the rescue! Yep, that's right. As I was doing my research for this episode, I googled “tinnitus and anorexia,” and the top hit was a Reddit post! Which is saying a lot about there not being information on this connection. Anyways, maybe you already saw this Reddit post in your own research, jellyfish1093, but I want to read it aloud just in case it's helpful and because it of course provides another lived experience story about how eating enough truly is the only way to heal yourself! So the post is in the subreddit /tinnitus and it's titled “For those with malnutrition/eating disorders…” and here's what the OP writes: “Hey, I just wanted to share that my intense and persistent tinnitus was resolved through recovery from my eating disorder (anorexia). I thought I was getting enough nutrition, however, I was not. Also, you cannot simply take enough vitamins/supplements. I was attempting to do that but it didn't make up for the food I was supposed to be ingesting. The tinnitus for me was like the sound of white noise, particularly in one ear. Machine sounds, such as the low hum of a refrigerator in a store could further intensify it, and I had been to a great ENT doctor that ruled out anything structure-wise on their end. I did not connect the dots, that tinnitus could be caused by malnutrition…but I am SO glad to be free from it. I want you to be free from it too. So I figured I'd share what helped me.” Honestly, this is why I love Reddit. The amount of validation I have felt on there is kind of unmatched. But because I want this podcast to be unmatched as well, I'm gonna give you more than lived experience and hope because I also want to explain WHY tinnitus is a symptom of anorexia. And here's what I discovered: First off, remember those electrolyte imbalances we just talked about with headaches? Well, your inner ear is incredibly sensitive to changes in fluid balance. When your sodium, potassium, and magnesium levels are all over the place, it messes with the fluid in your inner ear. This can create pressure changes and affect how sound waves are processed, which your brain might interpret as ringing or buzzing. But there's also a blood flow component. When you're malnourished, your blood pressure often drops because you're dehydrated and your blood volume is low. But then sometimes your body tries to compensate and your blood pressure spikes. These blood pressure fluctuations affect circulation to your inner ear, and poor blood flow to those tiny, delicate structures can absolutely cause tinnitus. And remember how we talked about your brain being starved of glucose? Well, your auditory system requires a ton of energy to function properly. When your brain doesn't have enough fuel, it can start misfiring, and sometimes that misfiring gets interpreted as sound when there isn't any. It's like your brain is so desperate for stimulation that it starts creating its own – which honestly makes so much sense for those of us with neurodivergent brains that are already seeking stimulation all the freaking time! To bring this full circle with that chronic fight-or-flight state I keep coming back to, sympathetic nervous system activation makes your brain hypervigilant to everything, including sounds that would normally be filtered out. And if you're autistic, you already know how overwhelming auditory processing can be even when we do feel regulated. So imagine how much worse that gets when malnutrition has your nervous system completely dysregulated. Now before we wrap up here, what's worth emphasizing is that none of this is happening in isolation. It's probably not just one thing causing your tinnitus. The mechanisms I just described – so your inner ear fluid being off, your blood flow being chaotic, your brain misfiring from lack of fuel, and your nervous system being hypervigilant – this is all happening simultaneously. This same concoction of mechanisms is likely what's causing your dizziness as well. Your vestibular system, which is a sense that plays a crucial role in balance and spatial orientation – lives right there in your inner ear alongside your hearing. So when malnutrition messes with your inner ear fluid and blood flow, it's not just affecting how you hear, but it's also going to affect your sense of balance and where you are in space. Add in those blood pressure fluctuations and blood sugar crashes we talked about, well, you guessed it, hi there dizziness! So I know this is a lot, but jellyfish1093, you did say in your original comment that you were looking for hope, so that's exactly what I want to leave you with. Your body is so wise, wiser than our mind could ever be. Your body knows exactly what it needs, and it is doing everything in its power to support you and your healing. All the symptoms you're experiencing – the headaches, tinnitus, dizziness, brain fog, anxiety, depression, and I'm sure so much more – these aren't actually separate parts that need individual targeting to heal. In reality, these are all your body's way of saying “Hey, I need consistent fuel to function properly.” And I can promise you that when you give your body what it actually needs, it will take all that energy and utilize it to fully recover. Of course, if you want my help on that journey, you can schedule a consultation call for 1-1 coaching or enroll in my extreme hunger course or join me and other neurodivergent aliens in the existential autistic membership! You can find all the different ways to work with me on my website livlabelfree.com. I hope to chat with you in real-time, and otherwise, I'll talk to you in the next episode. Bye bye for now!

Send us a textEver wonder why your ears won't stop ringing? The answer might surprise you. Welcome to our brand-new Friday Audiogram series! Every week, we'll deliver a concentrated 7-10 minute dose of hearing healthcare wisdom you can enjoy anywhere—even while standing in line at the grocery store. These bite-sized episodes bring you essential insights from our extensive catalog of conversations with industry leaders.In this inaugural Friday Audiogram, we tackle the complex relationship between tinnitus and hearing loss. Many patients mistakenly believe their tinnitus prevents them from hearing properly, but the reality often runs in the opposite direction. As Dr. Tarvin expertly explains, for many people, hearing loss comes first, with tinnitus developing as a symptom of that auditory deficit. This "chicken or egg" relationship requires careful unraveling during patient consultations.We also explore the power of motivational interviewing in hearing healthcare. By asking open-ended questions like "Tell me your story," practitioners can uncover crucial information about patients' true concerns. This patient-centered approach helps distinguish between perceived problems and actual underlying issues, leading to more effective treatment plans.Dr. Tarvin shares her personal journey to tinnitus specialization, which began when she recognized gaps in her knowledge while trying to help distressed patients. Her background in neuroscience provided the perfect foundation for exploring tinnitus management—where audiology intersects with cognitive health and emotional wellbeing.The Hearing Matters podcast has grown beyond our wildest expectations, now reaching listeners in over 4,100 cities across 212 countries.

For an estimated 5 million Americans, every beat of their heart can be heard in their ears as a constant "whooshing" sound making it difficult to sleep or concentrate and contributing to anxiety and depression. The condition is known as pulsatile tinnitus or P-T. Those who treat people with P-T say the condition can go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed due to its rarity and the difficulty in determining the underlying cause. On Wednesday's “Sound of Ideas” we will meet a local woman who developed the condition and the doctor who used a surgical procedure to help reduce most, but not all of the noise she was hearing. Also on the show, up first, we talk about the current labor dispute at a locally owned coffee chain and the recent closure of a café in Lakewood. Why are coffee shops currently flashpoints in the larger discussion regarding worker's and unionization? Finally, the Tennis in the Land tournament returns this weekend to the Flats. The tournament is now in its fifth year and brings to Cleveland some of the up and coming stars of the professional women's tennis tour. We'll talk to the tournament director about this year's event and plans.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Michael Kilgard, PhD, a professor of neuroscience at the University of Texas at Dallas and a leading expert on neuroplasticity and learning across the lifespan. We discuss the need for alertness, effortful focus, post-learning reflection and sleep to induce neuroplasticity, and how dopamine, acetylcholine, serotonin and norepinephrine are each involved. He explains the behavioral steps for neuroplasticity, as well as vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) and other therapies for tinnitus, stroke, depression, PTSD and paralysis. This episode ought to be of use to anyone interested in understanding the modern science of brain rewiring and learning to improve cognitive or motor skills or treat sensory or motor disorders.

Story at-a-glance People with recent-onset tinnitus scored significantly lower on cognitive tests measuring memory, focus, and processing speed, even after accounting for age, stroke, diabetes, and other risk factors Tinnitus hijacks your brain's attention system, draining cognitive resources and making it harder to concentrate, switch tasks, or remember details Women and those with lower education levels face a higher risk of cognitive impairment when tinnitus is present, suggesting certain groups need earlier intervention Brain imaging studies show that hearing loss causes shrinkage in areas tied to memory and decision-making, especially the hippocampus — a key region also affected by tinnitus You can lower your risk by avoiding loud noise exposure, improving sleep, boosting magnesium, supporting gut health with fruit and fiber, and calming your nervous system with daily relaxation practices

Dr. Yonit Arthur is an audiologist who is helping people climb out of their chronic tinnitus, vestibular migraine, vertigo, and other related conditions by sharing a message that you have come to know well: NOTHING IS STRUCTURALLY WRONG WITH YOU. This is not to say that she isn't totally empathic and kind in her communication. It is just to say that, like me, she is frustrated with the medical model and the way patients are not getting better. We share a similar passion for carrying this hope of recovery. If you or anyone you love has ever been diagnosed with ay of these conditions or related concerns, please give this episode a listen. It could be the first step in profoundly changing a life.
