Aisha Francis has built a career as a performer, choreographer, teacher, and one of the dance industry's most respected heels educators. In this conversation, she shares the unexpected story of how she ended up helping Beyoncé learn to dance in heels, along with the lessons she's learned from decades of working in the industry. We discuss confidence as a trainable skill, the physical and psychological foundations of performance, what dancers often misunderstand about building a career, and why training with intention matters. Aisha also opens up about burnout, losing her love for dance, finding it again through teaching, and the realities of navigating a constantly changing industry. From unforgettable stories on stage to practical insights on artistry, professionalism, and longevity, this episode offers a candid look at what it takes to grow not only as a dancer, but as a performer and person.

What if educating your people so well that they could leave was exactly the point? At Your Health, that's not a risk to manage — it's the philosophy that built an entire learning ecosystem. In this episode, Jamie talks with Aubrey Wall, who came to Your Health from a background in education and now leads Your Health University, the organization's learning management system and continuous-development engine. Aubrey brings an educator's eye to a fast-evolving healthcare environment, where best practice changes by the day and meeting patients where they are demands that staff never stop learning. Here's what you'll hear: Why a healthcare company runs 12-month, Department of Labor–registered apprenticeships — including programs in management, value-based care, population health, and hospice aide preparation How gamification is being built into nurse instruction (straight from Aubrey's dissertation research) The difference between Your Health University (your classroom) and the Hub (your resource library) How LinkedIn Learning delivered roughly $4.2 million in CEUs to staff last year Meeting Leah — the new AI assistant that helps employees find exactly the right course If you've ever believed growing your people is a cost rather than the whole point, this conversation will change how you think. Press play, then go ask Leah a question. www.YourHealth.Org

Kate Molleson explores the life and music of Claudio Monteverdi, following his path from early experiments in Cremona to a career that would reshape European music. Trained in the traditions of Renaissance polyphony, Monteverdi gradually pushed against its limits, developing a more direct and expressive musical language. His years at the Mantuan court brought both opportunity and pressure, as he wrote increasingly bold madrigals and helped to establish opera as a new art form. After a period of upheaval, he rebuilt his career in Venice, adapting his music to new spaces, audiences and expectations as public opera emerged. Across sacred works, madrigals and stage pieces, Monteverdi's writing reflects a composer responding closely to the demands of his time.Featuring excerpts from: Scherzi musicali a tre voci: Damigella tutta bella Sacrae cantiunculae Canzonette a tre voci (Nos. 1–3) Sinfonia for two violins and viola da brazzo Vattene pur, crudel L'Orfeo Madrigali amorosi Cruda Amarilli Io mi son giovinetta Vespers of 1610 Cor mio, non mori? L'Orfeo, Act 5 Lætaniæ della Beata Vergine Il sesto libro de madrigali Pianto della Madonna Zefiro torna e di soave accenti Selva morale e spirituale Beatus vir Chiome d'oro, bel tesoro Il combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda Il ritorno d'Ulisse in patria L'incoronazione di Poppea: Pur ti miroPresented by Kate Molleson Produced by Ellie Ajao for BBC Audio WalesFor full track listings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643) https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002x7t6.And you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we've featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-z (the same every week)
What if the striving, controlling, and pushing was only ever half the picture? In this episode of Inner Voice of Knowing, Kaye explores the mystery modern life trained you to ignore. It's the unseen world of energy that Indigenous cultures have always understood as primary, with physical reality forming around it. When we lead only from logic and control, the cost is stress, disconnection, burnout, and a nervous system that never rests. This is an invitation to make space again. For mystery, for magic, and for the support that arrives through channels you could never have strategised. Through a shamanic wisdom and leadership lens, Kaye moves through the difference between visioning and visualising, why your inner voice of knowing is more trustworthy than any external expert, and how financial abundance and unexpected opportunity often arrive in ways logic could never engineer, when you stop trying to control every variable. She shares a childhood memory of knowing, the limits of needing to label everything, and as she says in this episode, "the truth is beyond the shadow of the belief system." The power of change is in your hands. So is the choice to leave room for what your hands were never meant to hold. Tune into your inner voice of knowing. Make space for the mysterious. And notice what moves toward you when you stop forcing it forward.
Based on true events. In August of 1976, three teenagers driving an isolated road outside Whitehall, New York came face to face with a seven-foot creature with glowing red eyes. They did what no one in a monster story is supposed to do — they went straight to the police. And within days, the police saw it too. Trained officers. State troopers. Spotlights. Official reports. What happened on Abair Road turned a tiny Adirondack village into the Bigfoot Capital of the Northeast — a town that eventually passed a law making it illegal to harm the creature. But not everyone who met the Beast of Whitehall drove away with a story. Locals still speak of the ones the woods kept — and of a rifle found leaning against a tree, unfired. Join Carman Carrion for the true story of the Abair Road incident, the police officer who couldn't pull the trigger, and the town that chose to protect its monster. #Whitehall #NewYork #Bigfoot #Sasquatch #AbairRoad #DestinationTerror #Cryptid #BigfootSighting #Adirondacks #BigfootCapital #BeastOfWhitehall #CryptidEncounters #TrueHorror #RealTerror #ParanormalPodcast #HorrorPodcast #DarkHistory #UnexplainedMysteries #CreepyHistory #Eeriecast #CarmanCarrion #TrueStories #Unexplained #MonsterSighting #PoliceReport #SasquatchFestival #HauntedNewYork #Folklore #ListenNow #Spooky EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT: Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror SUPPORT THE SHOW: Patreon (Ad-Free + Bonus Content): https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion CONNECT WITH CARMAN: Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/ SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales.

In this episode of Lab Rats to Unicorns, John Flavin sits down with Heather Turner, CEO of LB Pharmaceuticals, a late-stage clinical biotechnology company developing differentiated therapies for patients with serious psychiatric and neurological disorders. Heather's path into biotech was anything but traditional. Trained as an attorney, she began her career advising startup companies at Cooley before spending more than two decades helping build and scale life sciences companies through financings, strategic partnerships, and major transactions. Along the way, she developed a unique perspective on leadership, risk management, and company building—eventually transitioning from legal leadership roles into the CEO seat. The conversation explores Heather's journey from lawyer to biotech executive, the lessons learned leading Carmot Therapeutics through a $3.1 billion acquisition by Roche, and the challenges of raising capital in one of biotech's most difficult financing environments. She also shares how LB Pharmaceuticals successfully completed a public offering to advance its lead program, LB-102, a potential new treatment for schizophrenia, bipolar depression, and major depressive disorder. At its core, this episode is about leadership in uncertainty—how great companies are built through preparation, resilience, humility, and a relentless focus on patients. Heather offers valuable insights on scaling organizations, building high-performing teams, navigating risk, and creating opportunities for the next generation of biotech leaders.
In this episode of See See by Ceci, N. Katherine Hayles, Distinguished Research Professor at UCLA, James B. Duke Professor Emerita at Duke, Guggenheim Fellow and member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, joins us from the rare crossroads at which she has worked for forty years: literature, science, technology and, now, artificial intelligence. Trained as a chemist at Rochester and Caltech before crossing into literary scholarship, she is a foremost authority on the relations between literature and computational media, and the author of How We Became Posthuman (1999) and, most recently, Bacteria to AI: Human Futures with our Nonhuman Symbionts (University of Chicago Press, 2025). In this rich and demanding conversation, Hayles redefines cognition as the interpretation of information in contexts that connect with meaning, a capacity she ascribes to bacteria, plants, fungi, animals and, increasingly, AI. She walks us through her integrated cognitive framework and the SIRAL criteria (sensing, interpreting, responding adaptively, anticipating, learning); through von Uexküll's umwelt, the world each species spins for itself; through cognitive assemblages in which humans, microbes and machines decide together; and through her sharp distinction between actors and agents. As a literary critic, she also turns her gaze on AI-produced literature, on hallucinations as imagination, and on Walter Benjamin's aura in the age of the deep fake. With reflections from neuroscientist John Cryan on the gut microbiome, historian Richard Bourke on the Kantian self, classicist Richard P. Martin on AI and imagination, and choreographer Alexander Whitley on embodiment. This is an episode about the uncoupling of cognition from consciousness, Hayles' most crucial move. About a posthuman in which the human itself is being rewritten. And about the very determined optimism of a thinker who insists that hope is not the reward at the end of the work, but the precondition for it. N. Katherine Hayles is the author of twelve influential books, including the landmark How We Became Posthuman, widely regarded as a seminal foundation for posthumanism, My Mother Was a Computer: Digital Subjects and Literary Texts (2005), Unthought: The Power of the Cognitive Nonconscious (2017), and her latest, Bacteria to AI: Human Futures with our Nonhuman Symbionts (University of Chicago Press, 2025). A member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and recipient of fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and the Rockefeller Foundation, Hayles has transformed our understanding of the digital age.
Today’s Bible Verse: "You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy." — Psalm 30:11 Psalm 30:11 is a beautiful picture of God's power to bring restoration and joy after seasons of sorrow. David remembers a time of deep distress and testifies that God did not leave him there. The Lord transformed mourning into celebration and exchanged grief for joy. This episode explores the hope found in God's restoring work. Pain, loss, and hardship are real, and Scripture never asks us to pretend otherwise. Yet Psalm 30 reminds us that sorrow does not have the final word. God is able to heal wounded hearts, renew weary spirits, and bring joy that rises from His presence rather than from changing circumstances. “Want to listen without ads?

Matt explains what metabolic psychiatry actually is, how it differs from conventional psychiatric approaches, and why factors like insulin resistance, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction are now being considered key drivers in conditions such as depression, anxiety, and more severe psychiatric disorders.They explore the growing interest in nutritional and metabolic interventions, including dietary strategies like carbohydrate restriction, and how these may influence brain energy, neurotransmitter function, and symptom outcomes. The discussion also touches on where the evidence currently sits, what clinicians should be cautious about, and how to think about integrating these approaches alongside standard care.It's a thought-provoking conversation that challenges traditional models of mental health, while offering a more biologically grounded way of understanding and supporting the brain.Dr. Matt Bernstein is a highly respected clinical psychiatrist and a leading voice in metabolic psychiatry, with 25 years of experience helping individuals achieve full mental health and functional recovery.He graduated summa cum laude from Columbia University in English literature and earned his medical degree from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. Trained at MGH/McLean, he served as chief resident and later held leadership roles including psychiatrist-in-charge and assistant medical director of the schizophrenia and bipolar inpatient program. He also serves as chief medical officer at Ellenhorn, developing community-based strategies to optimize mental health.For the past five years, Dr. Bernstein has focused on metabolic psychiatry, first in his private practice, and then at Ellenhorn. More recently, he created Accord's comprehensive program and is sharing his expertise through podcasts, national conferences, and briefings for members of Congress. He co-organized the first public conference on metabolic psychiatry, and co-leads a privately funded study evaluating outcomes of Accord's pioneering interventions.He serves on advisory and non-profit boards, including Metabolic Mind, Meru Health, The Metabolic Revolution, and the Coalition for Metabolic Health, helping advance the field both clinically and publicly.https://accordmh.com/our-team/matt-bernstein/ Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Branding is losing its personality. In the race for digital efficiency, the world has succumbed to “blanding”—clean, neutral, and entirely safe design built for algorithms instead of people. Mark Nichols, Creative Director and Co-Owner of WMH&I, joins the show to challenge this rise of system-friendly simplicity. He shares why the brands that truly matter must push against global scalability, embrace their unique quirks, and design for humans—even if that means not being for everyone. What You'll Learn in This Episode - Why brands are paying millions of pounds to strip away the exact quirks that drive human connection The strategic power of distinctiveness and why only fifteen percent of brand assets are actually memorable - How a sector agnostic approach allows creatives to cross pollinate ideas from fashion into electric vehicles - The shift from designing for machine efficiency to using live data sets and creative code for living brandscapes - Why Nike should have doubled down instead of backing out when a bold running campaign polarized audiences Episode Chapters (00:00) Intro (01:08) The Rise of Blanding (03:34) The Value of Distinctiveness (04:48) Sensory Storytelling with Red Breast Whiskey (07:31) The Case for Being Sector Agnostic (12:04) Overcoming Client Fear of Polarization (16:30) Idea Driven Branding vs Style Points (19:42) Embracing Irreverence and Creative Code About Mark Nichols Mark Nichols is the Creative Director and Co-Owner of WMH&I, a sector-agnostic creative agency specializing in bold rebrands that push against global scalability and machine efficiency. Trained as a multi-disciplined designer, Mark began his career at WMH&I as a graduate, refined his craft at leading agencies like Taxi Studio and Jack Renwick, and ultimately returned home to lead the agency's creative output. His exceptional, award-winning work for global giants and boutique brands alike has earned recognition from the New York Festivals, Art Directors Club, Pentawards, and Brand Impact. Beyond the agency, Mark is a dedicated champion of design education, lecturing internationally at institutions ranging from his alma mater, the Norwich University of the Arts, to IDEP Barcelona and the University of Delaware. What Brand Has Made Mark Smile Recently? Mark smiled recently at the daring and irreverence of brands that lean entirely into their distinct personalities. He highlighted Liquid Death's punk-media approach to the water category, alongside Nike's willingness to reflect the gritty reality of their consumers—such as their London campaign noting that running in the city is awful, but loved. Mark prefers brands that choose a clear voice and stand their ground rather than homogenizing their message for safe, forgettable neutrality. Resources & Links Connect with Mark on LinkedIn.

In this episode, Dr. Neil Naik and I unpack a foundational question—is obesity actually linked to cancer, and what's really driving that connection? We explore the underlying biology, from chronic inflammation and insulin resistance to the hormonal activity of adipose tissue, and why visceral fat may matter more than we think.We then move beyond risk and into what happens after a diagnosis—how obesity can influence treatment response, toxicity, dosing, and outcomes across chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation. The conversation also highlights the often-overlooked phase of survivorship, including the role of metabolic health in recurrence risk and long-term prognosis.We close by discussing where emerging therapies like GLP-1 medications fit, how clinicians can move beyond BMI toward more individualized care, and how to talk about the obesity–cancer connection in a way that informs without adding shame.My Guest Dr. Neil NaikDr. Neil Naik, a family physician, educator, and innovator based in Waterloo, Ontario.

Tyler Anbinder highlights the upward mobility of Irish artisans and entrepreneurs, showcasing George Fox, a trained tailor who became a successful merchant tailor through aggressive self-promotion and by providing free garments to prominent politicians like Millard Fillmore. The transition from journeyman to master was a critical step for many skilled workers, such as carpenters and masons, who benefited from New York's rapid physical expansion. The Immigrant Savings Bank records track these paths of success, revealing how parents plateauing in artisanal roles focused on ensuring their children could enter professional classes like law and medicine.

Dr. Andrew Kaufman appears on Outer Limits of Inner Truth to discuss terrain theory, the mind body connection, and personal health autonomy. He begins with the period when fear dominated public life, sharing his observations about how institutions leaned on it to override individual rights, then moves into his central medical argument, that the body operates on its internal terrain and inner state far more than on outside invaders. The strongest and most substantive stretch of the interview is the mind body material, where Kaufman draws on the adverse childhood experiences research linking early trauma to chronic disease in adulthood, explains the nocebo effect using the example of patients who developed chemotherapy side effects after receiving only a saline solution, and argues that unresolved emotional conflict can physically obstruct the body's ability to heal itself. The second half turns to the everyday inputs Kaufman believes shape long term health. He makes a detailed case for real, local, seasonal, minimally processed food, reasoning both from the composition of the human body and from medical anthropology describing populations before colonization who lived largely free of chronic disease. He raises concerns about seed oils, the role of chronic stress and cortisol, and what he calls obesogens, the persistent environmental toxins and forever chemicals such as DDT and PCBs that researchers have found stored in human fat for decades. Kaufman also shares his perspective on conventional medicine and alternative approaches to treatment, and frames the entire conversation around the idea of becoming your own doctor and refusing to outsource your judgment. He closes by pointing listeners to the free resources on his website, including his detox protocol and his masterclass on handling medical situations at home. Website: https://medauthentica.com/ ----- Dr. Andy Kaufman, a "recovering physician," transitioned from a prestigious mainstream medical career to challenge conventional paradigms. Trained in allopathic medicine, his journey of questioning traditional principles led him to become a dynamic educator and speaker. Dr. Andy shares insights on medicine, viruses, and natural healing, while exploring interconnected fields like economics, law, and science, offering a holistic perspective that inspires critical thinking.

In this episode of Things Police See, host Steve Gould sits down with retired NYPD veteran George Sichler for an unforgettable look into the world of elite law enforcement special operations. Serving 20 years with the nation's largest police force, George transitioned from the intense "meat grinder" patrol blocks of NYC to the high-stakes NYPD Harbor and Scuba teams. George shares incredible firsthand accounts of what it's like to drop from helicopters into pitch-black waters, executive life-or-death maritime rescues miles offshore, and navigate zero-visibility "black water" recovery missions.

I am delighted to reconnect with Dr. Nicole LePera today. Trained in clinical psychology, she is a holistic psychologist whose work explores the interconnections among the mind, body, and soul, incorporating holistic lifestyle and psychological wellness practices. She has written multiple New York Times bestselling books, most recently Reparenting the Inner Child. In today's conversation, we unpack what the inner child really means from a clinical perspective. We explore how understanding your childhood wounds intellectually differs from truly re-parenting yourself at the nervous system level, and how perimenopause and menopause influence the way we view the world. We look at ACE scores and the biology of childhood adversity, how ACE scores measure what happened to us, but fail to measure resilience, protective factors, or the capacity for healing. We examine how reactive parents shape our nervous system, and how that shows up as hypervigilance, emotional scanning, and self-erasure, and how the fawn response can lead to chronic people-pleasing, relentless accommodation, and an inability to say no. We also cover how epigenetics and lifestyles influence behavioral patterns, critical parenting, stress addiction, gut-brain dysregulation, and the disruptive effects of vagal tone gadgets. This is truly one of those must-listen conversations! I love Dr. LePera's grounded and practical approach to helping people work through their childhood experiences and advocate for themselves. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How childhood wounds become stored in the nervous system rather than just the mind Why understanding your dysfunctional habits intellectually will not change the emotional patterns that drive them How perimenopause and menopause can magnify unresolved emotional patterns What ACE scores measure and what they fail to capture How reactive parenting can lead to hypervigilance and emotional scanning, even in safe environments Dr. LePera describes the fawn response and explains how children learn to over-accommodate others, suppress their own needs, and avoid conflict. How chronic stress becomes a learned response, and how stress responses can be passed across generations How chronic stress and a dysregulated nervous system can influence gut function and microbiome balance Why it's essential to return your attention to your body in the present moment to begin healing Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website.

You say you want more. More money, more freedom, more peace. But you're terrified. Terrified of failing, terrified of trying, terrified of being judged, terrified of wanting more. So you stopped dreaming because honestly, it hurt too much to keep hope alive. And now you call that being realistic.It's not realistic. It's survival mode wearing a smarter outfit. Your brain filters for exactly what you believe, so if you believe money always disappears, you spend all day emotionally rehearsing the loss. I lost the car. I lost the job. I couldn't pay for it. Two people live on the same planet and experience completely different realities, and the only difference is the story they keep repeating. Right now yours is keeping you small, and someone is profiting off it.Episode Takeaways:Name the survival mode you've been calling "realistic"Stop waiting for certainty, because it comes after the leap, not before itReclaim your imagination as creative power instead of something childishQuit worshiping struggle as proof you've earned your worthFeel the future version of you already reaching back to direct the trafficYou don't have to become someone else to receive more. You have to stop abandoning yourself. The woman who takes this in stops negotiating with fear and stops idolizing how hard she can make things. She applies for the thing. She starts the business. She leaves the relationship. She moves to the city, writes the book, launches the podcast. She decides her next chapter is learning how good things can actually get, because rest is revenue and burnout was never a personality trait. You came here to create. So go create.

Trained in integrative medicine at the University of Michigan and currently serving as the Medical Director of Lifestyle Medicine for Corewell Health, Dr. Sundermann is passionate about helping patients reconnect with the healing power of nature and lifestyle-based care.

Dr. Sundermann also explores the fascinating science behind phytoncides which are natural compounds emitted by trees and other living green plants. She explains how spending time in nature and inhaling these compounds may help increase natural killer cell activity, strengthen immune function, reduce stress, and support overall health. Don't miss this insightful conversation as Dr. Sundermann shares how lifestyle medicine, nature exposure, and patient-centered care may hold the key to a healthier and more connected future of medicine.

The Seven Stages of Queer Love: Therapy with Queer Couples, Queer Sex, and the Developmental Model - An Interview with Tom Bruett, LMFT Tom Bruett, LMFT on the seven stages of queer relationship development, the Developmental Model, queer couples therapy, and queer sex. Curt and Katie talk with Tom Bruett, LMFT, founder of the Queer Relationship Institute, about what therapists most often get wrong when working with queer couples, why queer sex is still treated as an asterisk in most sex therapy training, and how the Developmental Model of Relationship Therapy can be expanded to better reflect queer experience. Trained under Drs. Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Tom adds two stages to the five-stage Developmental Model: Second Queer Adolescence and Agreement. The expanded seven-stage model gives therapists a clearer way to track differentiation, autonomy, and connection in queer relationships that do not fit the standard "relationship escalator." Tom is the author of The Go-To Relationship Guide for Gay Men: From Honeymoon to Lasting Commitment (Jessica Kingsley Publishers). This is a useful conversation for therapists working with queer couples, sex therapists, couples therapists trained in heteronormative models, and queer therapists looking for better tools and community for this work. In this episode, we discuss: - What therapists most often get wrong with queer couples and queer sex - The Seven Stages of Queer Relationship Development, including Tom's two additions - Why a "second queer adolescence" matters clinically - Mutual interdependence versus codependence in gay male relationships - Minority stress, the relationship escalator, and queer identity formation - How the current political moment is showing up in queer couples therapy - Trauma activation, nervous-system regulation, and slowing the work down - Support for queer therapists working through a difficult cultural moment Timestamps: 02:28 - What therapists get wrong with queer couples and queer sex 04:43 - Sex therapy training and the asterisk problem 08:20 - The Seven Stages of Queer Relationship Development 13:00 - Mutual interdependence versus codependence 17:39 - The relationship escalator and minority stress 21:14 - The current political moment in queer couples therapy 25:18 - Trauma, regulation, and slowing down the work 27:08 - Writing The Go-To Relationship Guide for Gay Men 33:21 - Doing the work on the back end, not asking clients to educate you 34:13 - Where to find Tom and the Queer Relationship Institute Guest Bio: Tom Bruett, LMFT is a therapist, trainer, consultant, and author who works extensively with the queer community.

In this episode of the Vibrant Living Podcast, I welcome Jennifer McFarland, ADHD advocate, TFT Tapping practitioner, and founder of Monarch Dawn.Jennifer works with women who discover their ADHD diagnosis in adulthood, after years of shame, relentless anxiety, and the exhausting work of holding it all together on the outside while everything feels chaotic within.This conversation names what so many women have carried but never had language for. Jennifer explains why ADHD in women is so frequently missed, how it shows up as internalized anxiety rather than visible behavior, and why the shame around it runs so deep. She shares what it looks like to stop fighting the way your brain is wired and begin working with it instead, from a posture of grace rather than pressure.I close with a word that lands: relief is information. If this conversation made you breathe, do not rush past that. Awareness is the beginning of wisdom.

From Evidence to Action: Incorporating Disability Inclusion in Medical Training and Practice (ICAM 2026) Session Description The ICAM Series | Recorded Live at the International Congress on Academic Medicine (ICAM) What does it take to move disability inclusion from research and policy into everyday medical training and practice? Recorded live at the International Congress on Academic Medicine (ICAM) in Ottawa, Canada, this special episode of the Docs With Disabilities Podcast brings together an extraordinary panel of physician leaders, educators, and advocates working to transform disability inclusion across undergraduate medical education, residency training, and clinical practice. Together, the panel explores how institutions can move beyond awareness and compliance toward meaningful, sustainable change. Drawing from scholarship, systems leadership, and lived experience, they discuss the realities of accommodation implementation, the importance of centralized and trusted systems, faculty training, universal design, and the role of culture in shaping whether disability inclusion succeeds or stalls. This conversation asks difficult—but necessary—questions: How do we create systems that are consistent and humane? How do we support learners and physicians across transitions and career stages? And how do we build medical environments where disability is expected, planned for, and valued? Rich with practical insight and grounded in real-world experience, this live ICAM session highlights a field at an important turning point—one where we increasingly have the evidence, the tools, and the responsibility to act. Whether you are a learner, educator, physician, administrator, or institutional leader, this episode offers concrete ideas and inspiration for advancing disability inclusion within your own environment.

Peace Advocates Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and Dr. Katie Eastman Bestselling authors and global peace advocates Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and Dr. Katie Eastman announce the release of The Peace Guidebook: How to Cultivate Hope, Healing, and Harmony for the Good of Humankind, publishing April 21, 2026 by Health Communications Inc and Simon & Schuster – available now for pre order on major retail platforms. With a powerful foreword by Rev. Mpho A. Tutu van Furth, the book opens with a compelling invitation to reimagine peace not as a distant ideal, but as a living, breathing presence in our daily lives. “This book is a call to action and a call to calm. It is a reminder that peace begins within each of us. Every person matters, every voice has value, and no one has to walk this journey alone,” says Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and Dr. Katie Eastman. A Practical Guide for Real Peace in Real Life In The Peace Guidebook, Hamilton Guarino and Eastman challenge the belief that peace is passive or only possible during calm moments. Instead, they present peace as an active, daily practice, one that can be cultivated through grief, change, burnout, and uncertainty. “Peace is not the absence of pain, it is the presence of alignment,” stated authors Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and Dr. Katie Eastman. “It is how we live with grace, even when things fall apart.” The book introduces ten transformational principles, including Presence, Patience, Partnership, and Perseverance, alongside practical tools, real life stories, and guided exercises to help readers integrate peace into their everyday lives. Peace in Action: From Personal Practice to Global Movement The Peace Guidebook is part of the broader Percolate Peace Project, a global initiative aiming to inspire one million people to embrace peace as a way of life. “This is more than a book,” the authors emphasize. “It is a call to action, a blueprint for personal and collective transformation.” About the Percolate Peace Project – Our Movement for Global Peace The Percolate Peace Project is a global initiative to help 1 million people cultivate and spread peace—starting from within. Co-founded by bestselling author and master life coach Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and licensed psychotherapist and grief specialist Dr. Katie Eastman, the project is a direct extension of their groundbreaking work in The Peace Guidebook. At its heart is a simple belief: Peace is not passive. It's a personal, powerful, everyday practice. The Percolate Peace Project encourages people from all walks of life to become intentional “peace percolators”—those who consciously filter their thoughts, words, and actions through the lens of compassion, presence, hope, and healing. Just like coffee takes time to percolate, peace does too. This project offers a place to pause, reflect, and filter your best self through—one breath, one choice, one interaction at a time. The Mission: To empower individuals, families, communities, organizations, and nations to: Practice Peace Daily – through tools, reflections, and the Ten Principles of Peace Share Real Stories – of healing, courage, compassion, and transformation Connect Globally – in a supportive, uplifting community dedicated to peaceful living Amplify Peace in Action – through teaching, coaching, conversations, and leadership How You Can Join the Movement: Read The Peace Guidebook and start your own journey Join the growing community on The Percolate Peace Project Facebook Group Share your story or testimonial Host a book club, podcast episode, or local gathering Practice the Peace Points in your daily life and inspire others to do the same Why It Matters: We live in a world where people are hurting, disconnected, and overwhelmed. But we also live in a world where healing is possible—where one act of peace can ripple outward and change everything. This project is for the caregivers, the leaders, the parents, the teens, the teachers, the grievers, the seekers. It's for anyone who believes that peace is a choice, not a luxury—and that together, we can make it real. Join us, and let's create a ripple effect that reaches far beyond what we can imagine.

Nobody comes into the world afraid of disappointing people. That fear gets learned. It gets taught — sometimes directly, sometimes subtly — by the environments we grew up in, the relationships that shaped us, and the messages we absorbed about what made us lovable and safe. In today's episode, Celeste traces people pleasing back to its roots — and explains why understanding where it came from is the first step to changing it. If you've ever wondered why you are the way you are, this one is going to give you some answers — and a lot of compassion for yourself. Today's shift: Identify one message you received growing up — directly or indirectly — that taught you your needs mattered less than keeping others comfortable.

Slovakia Today, English Language Current Affairs Programme from Slovak Radio
Today's programme talks about the organization Cesta Von, focusing on their largest project Omama, which focuses on supporting children growing up in generational poverty from their earliest years. Trained women from marginalized Roma communities (known as “omamas”) regularly visit families, helping parents develop their children's skills and prepare them for a more successful start in school and in life. The aim is not only to support children, but also to provide employment and education for local women, who themselves become part of positive change within their communities. The guests of the programme will be the organization's director Martin Hrica, analyst and researcher Shoshanna Chovan, and a field worker — omama Zuzka with her mentor Janka.

In early 2009, Paolo Poma found himself navigating what he recalls as a “really tough” period. At the time, he was helping steer Ducati through a leveraged buyout negotiated before the collapse of Lehman Brothers. Debt obligations had arrived just as markets were “plummeting,” Poma tells us, while lenders closely monitored covenant compliance and private equity owners pressed ahead with the deal.Poma remembers sitting with bankers and shareholders through repeated discussions about liquidity, budgets, and cash generation. “Planning cash was crucial because covenants on cash were really tight,” he tells us. The experience forced him to balance operational performance with financial discipline while uncertainty spread across global markets. Ducati ultimately avoided breaking its covenants, Poma tells us, and the period became one of the defining stretches of his finance career.The challenge also reinforced the leadership style that would later shape his tenure at Lamborghini. Trained originally as an engineer, Poma tells us he built his finance career by combining analytical rigor with business understanding. He later expanded his responsibilities from controlling to investor relations, treasury, and accounting before formally becoming CFO in 2011.Today, that long-view mindset influences how he approaches Lamborghini's growth. The company grew from roughly €200 million in revenue to nearly €2.4 billion over the last decade, Poma tells us, while maintaining a focus on profitability, product discipline, and sustainable expansion.
This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken sits down with Keri Larned, a Master's Certified Splankna Practitioner and one of Laura's featured practitioners, to share Keri's remarkable journey into the world of Splankna and the healing that changed the trajectory of her life. Before becoming a practitioner herself, Keri experienced a physical struggle that lasted seven long years. Through her own encounter with Splankna and the power of prayer, the Lord brought breakthrough in a way that deeply shaped her faith and calling. Today, Keri serves others through virtual sessions and carries a special heart for new trainees and recently trained practitioners. In this episode, Laura and Keri have an honest conversation about what it really feels like to step into this work for the first time. They discuss: Keri's personal journey into Splankna The physical issue that persisted for years before breakthrough came How God used that experience to shape her calling The overwhelm and self-doubt many new trainees experience Why it's normal to feel like you have no idea what you're doing at first Practical encouragement for making the most of training How to stay the course and avoid giving up early Whether you're considering training, recently completed CORE, or are quietly wondering if you're "cut out" for this work, this episode is packed with reassurance and wisdom from someone who has been exactly where you are.
Most of us don't think about brain health until something goes wrong. We think it's normal to experience brain fog or we just accept cognitive decline is inevitable as we age. Science shows you can physically change your brain at any age. You can grow new neurons, build stronger connections, and even shrink your risk of Alzheimer's — and it doesn't require anything mysterious or extreme. My guest is Dr. Majid Fotuhi, a renowned neurologist and one of the world's leading experts in brain health. He received his MD from Harvard Medical School and his PhD in Neuroscience from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, where he now serves as an adjunct professor at the Mind/Brain Institute. He's also the author of the new book The Invincible Brain. Some of the things we discuss are: Why your brain is an organ you can care for like your teeth or your heart — not a mysterious black box you're stuck with The 12-week brain fitness study that showed older adults physically grew their brains by 1–3%, making them up to three years younger on an MRI Why genetics play a surprisingly small role in late-life Alzheimer's — and how exercise can cancel out the effects of the highest-risk gene The exact amount of exercise that strengthens your brain (and why doing more than this won't help) Why sleep is an active brain-cleaning process — and what 20+ years of insomnia does to the memory center of your brain The one rule about food Dr. Fotuhi cares about more than keto vs. Mediterranean vs. vegetarian How chronic stress physically shrinks your brain, plus the perspective shift his daughter learned that keeps her calm under pressure Simple daily ways to challenge your brain — from memorizing names to license plates in traffic The Therapist's Take: My top three strategies for building a physically stronger, younger brain starting today Related Episodes 91 — The Biggest Threats to Your Brain Health and the Lifestyle Changes You Should Make Today to Stay Sharp with Dr. Austin Perlmutter 212 — What Are You Feeding Your Brain?

Send us Fan MailSomeone comes to you stuck and you can feel the pressure to say the perfect thing. You reach for advice, a pep talk, or a quick solution, and somehow it still doesn't help. We name what's really happening: you're not failing because you don't care enough or because you “aren't confident.” You're missing a repeatable coaching skill for hard conversations, and most of us were never trained to build it.Marc unpacks what “winging it” looks like from the inside and why, under stress, we fall back to muscle memory. We talk about the common trap of becoming a consultant or cheerleader, how that can accidentally create limiting beliefs, and why strong leadership coaching relies on questions that reveal what's driving behavior. We also draw a bright line between guiding and controlling: you can be asking questions and still steer the person toward your preferred answer with leading prompts that plant the wrong story.You'll hear how this skill translates across roles, whether you're a manager, a parent, or a coach, and why having a simple process (like a growth model approach) changes your presence. When you know what you're doing, people feel it, trust it, and take action. We close with a challenge scenario you can think through before next week.If this helps, subscribe, share it with someone who leads people, and leave a quick review.

In this episode, Dr. Nathan Bryan—world-renowned nitric oxide researcher with over 25 years of pioneering work, founder of N1O1, and author of The Secret of Nitric Oxide: Bringing Nitric Oxide to Life—joins us to reveal why this “miracle molecule” may be the most important factor in your health that you've never heard about. Trained under Nobel Laureate Dr. Ferid Murad and responsible for seminal discoveries on nitric oxide's role in the body, Dr. Bryan explains how declining nitric oxide levels drive fatigue, high blood pressure, chronic inflammation, poor circulation, brain fog, sexual dysfunction, and accelerated aging. He also shares the surprising truth about your oral microbiome, why everyday habits like using mouthwash or antacids destroy nitric oxide production, and the simple, science-backed strategies to naturally restore it. You'll walk away with practical tools to boost nitric oxide through diet, lifestyle, and targeted supplementation—so you can improve energy, cardiovascular health, cognitive function, and longevity starting today. Whether you're battling low energy, looking to prevent chronic disease, or optimizing performance at any age, this conversation delivers foundational insights that can transform how you feel and function.

What if the pyramid isn't the machine?What if the true design of Giza lies hidden in the plateau itself?For centuries, the pyramids of Giza have been studied as isolated monuments—tombs, symbols, or feats of ancient engineering. Yet key features remain unresolved: the subterranean chamber deep below, the purpose of the Well Shaft, hidden internal voids, and the precise relationship between structure and bedrock.What if these are not separate mysteries—but parts of a single system?The Giza System introduces a new perspective: that the function of Giza may not reside in the pyramid alone, but in what is concealed beneath and surrounding it. It proposes that the plateau itself may have been architecturally engineered to interact with water, integrating stone, elevation, and flow into a unified design.In this view, familiar features begin to shift in meaning—less as isolated spaces, more as elements within a larger process. Subsurface chambers, internal pathways, and surrounding geology suggest coordination, not coincidence.Elevation becomes critical.Position, depth, and relationship begin to matter in ways often overlooked.At the same time, the model opens a broader question: whether architecture and cosmology were conceived together—echoing the ancient concept of Nun, the primordial waters—not only symbolically, but functionally. In this light, traditional interpretations need not be discarded; funerary purpose and hydraulic design may coexist within the same architecture, serving layered roles rather than a single explanation.This is not a claim of lost technology—but a reframing of what may already be present.Drawing on architectural observation, geological context, and comparisons with other ancient sites, The Giza System outlines a model that is both grounded and testable—one that invites exploration rather than final answers.If this perspective is correct, then Giza was not built simply to endure.It may have been designed to operate.And what has been hidden in plain sight… may have been there by design.Brian Pharoah is a Canadian architectural designer with over 35 years of experience in residential design and construction, specializing in large custom luxury homes across Canada. Trained in classical architecture, his work is grounded in geometry, proportion, and the relationship between structure and environment. He approaches design as a disciplined process of visualizing and constructing space through measurement, mathematics, and three-dimensional reasoning.He is the author of two books on the Oak Island mystery, exploring themes of sacred geometry, numerical systems, and the possibility of encoded knowledge within historical structures. His work investigates how underlying mathematical principles—often described as Logos—may inform both architectural form and cultural symbolism.Over the past decade, Brian has extended this architectural approach to the study of ancient megalithic sites, with a particular focus on the Giza Plateau. His research examines the pyramids and surrounding structures not as isolated monuments, but as components of a coordinated landscape shaped by elevation, geology, and groundwater conditions. Through analysis of structural alignments, chamber elevations, and subsurface features, he explores the possibility that water played a fundamental role in the design and organization of the site.Rather than opposing traditional interpretations, Brian's work seeks to expand them—exploring how architecture, environmental forces, and ancient Egyptian cosmology, including concepts such as Nun, Osiris, and rebirth, may operate together within a unified framework. His research integrates architectural analysis with archaeological and geological data, offering a new perspective on how physical processes and symbolic meaning may intersect at Giza.Brian has been featured on The Curse of Oak Island and has appeared on multiple podcasts discussing his research. He is the author of The Giza System, a comprehensive architectural study presenting this evolving interpretation of the Giza Plateau.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
What if the most important thing happening inside your body right now isn't a hormone, a supplement, or a nutrient — but something you've been completely ignoring?This week, I sat down with Dr. Ali Asadi, Chief Innovation Officer at TAM Global and a double PhD chemist who spent nearly a decade at Illumina — the world's largest genomics company — before joining the frontier of cancer and stem cell medicine. Trained at the Scripps Research Institute, an institute home to six Nobel Prize winners, Dr. Ali is one of those rare scientists who can make molecular chemistry feel like poetry.Here's what blew my mind: the weakest force in nature — hydrogen bonding — is what holds your DNA together. What shapes every protein in your body. What makes life on this planet possible at all. And without water, none of it happens. Water isn't the backdrop to biology. It is biology.He also dropped something the protein industry doesn't want you to hear: you cannot efficiently build muscle from a protein supplement if that protein isn't wrapped in lipids — because that's how nature packages it. Strip out the phospholipids, strip out the bioavailability.And then there's this: the water in your glass arrived on Earth from asteroids. It is billions of years old. Every sip is the history of the universe.We also got into TAM Global's personalized cancer vaccines — designed from each patient's own genomic signature — and their emerging molecular diagnostic for autism. This conversation will change how you think about water, about your biology, and about what it means to be alive.What we talk about:Why water breaks the laws of chemistry — and why that's the exact reason life exists on this planetThe weakest force in nature is what holds your DNA, proteins, and every cell structure togetherWhy drinking protein shakes without proper lipid encapsulation is largely wasted effortHow slightly alkaline water connects to what your evolutionary biology was designed to drinkWhy every sip of water is literally billions of years of cosmic history arriving from asteroidsWhat TAM Global is building with personalized cancer vaccines designed from your own DNAA molecular fingerprint for autism that could transform diagnosis from behavioral to biologicalListen now on all platforms: Hydrate With Tracy Duhs.Episode Links & Resources:Website: The Tam Center - https://thetamcenter.com | CPI Stem Cells - https://cellularperformanceinstitute.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nanoaliInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetamcenter/Connect with Tracy:Website: https://tracyduhs.com/Hydration Shop: https://sanctuarysd.com/Instagram: @tracyduhsFlow FAM Community: https://tracyduhs.com/join-flow-fam/
When I was in my teens, I remember watching a biopic on famed Indian mathematician from the early 1900s - Ramanujan. He was often saying “There's so much to do yet so little time.” He'd work for 30 hours at a stretch and slept for 20. He discovered nearly 4,000 equations + formulas and died at the prime age of 32. Why do I bring him up? Because he wanted more time to achieve his goals in life which gave him a sense of fulfillment and happiness. As many of us do. But consider this. Why are the happiest people on earth either babies or the elderly enjoying their sunset years? It doesn't have to be that way. And my guest today, Professor Cassie Holmes, Phd is extremely knowledgeable on the subject. She's going to enlighten us about her research backed by case studies and science on how to be truly happy, feel content with the time we have, and will even provide strategies we can apply to lead a purposeful, meaningful life. Cassie Mogilner Holmes is a professor at UCLA's Anderson School of Management. Trained as a social psychologist, she earned her PhD at Stanford's Graduate School of Business and her BA at Columbia. An award-winning teacher and researcher on the role of time in cultivating happiness and satisfaction in life, Holmes's work has been widely published in lead academic journals and featured in outlets such as NPR, the Economist, the Atlantic, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and the Washington Post. Happier Hour is her first book. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband Rob and their children Leo and Lita.
