    We've Been Calling This Normal | Dr. Gabor Maté on Trauma, Stress, and Modern Life What if many of the pressures we accept as ordinary life are actually conditions the human nervous system experiences as chronic threat? Episode Description For generations, we have normalized stress, emotional suppression, relentless productivity, and disconnection from our own needs, treating them as the price of success. Dr. Gabor Maté argues that what we call normal in modern society often reflects patterns of adaptation to environments our biology was never designed to navigate. . But what if trauma is not primarily psychological at all? What if it is biological? Embedded. Lived through the nervous system long after the event is over. . In this profound and deeply human conversation, Dov Baron sits down with Dr. Gabor Maté to challenge one of the most entrenched assumptions in modern culture. That suffering is a personal failure rather than a physiological imprint of lived experience. . Together, they explore how addiction, anxiety, chronic illness, perfectionism, and even high achievement can emerge from the same root. Not moral weakness. Not a lack of discipline. But adaptive responses to disconnection, stress, and unmet developmental needs. . This episode is not about diagnosing what is wrong with people. It is about understanding what happened to them and what their bodies learned to survive it. . And more importantly, what becomes possible when we stop asking, "What's wrong with you?" and begin asking, "What happened to you?" In This Episode You'll Discover Why trauma is not defined by events, but by how the nervous system adapts to them How addiction often begins as an attempt at self regulation, not escape The hidden link between chronic stress and physical disease Why high-functioning success can mask unresolved developmental wounds How modern culture normalizes disconnection while pathologizing its symptoms The difference between intellectual insight and embodied healing Why compassion is not soft science, but biological necessity How reconnecting to authenticity becomes the foundation of real resilience   Why This Conversation Matters Now We live in an era that rewards performance while quietly eroding connection. Many leaders are celebrated for endurance while their nervous systems remain locked in survival mode. Dr. Maté's work reframes healing not as fixing broken individuals, but as restoring relationship. Relationship to self. To the body. To meaning. To one another. This is not self help. It is a paradigm shift in how we understand human behavior, health, and leadership. About Dr. Gabor Maté Dr. Gabor Maté is a physician, speaker, and internationally recognized authority on trauma, addiction, stress, and human development. His work bridges neuroscience, psychology, and lived experience to illuminate how early environments shape lifelong patterns of health, behavior, and identity. He is widely known for challenging conventional medical models by integrating compassion, connection, and social context into the understanding of illness and healing.

    Nearly all alive today are massively traumatized. In order to proceed with our advanced practice in aloneness and dealing with separation, we must understand how trauma acts as a catalyst to heal and yet is also the obstacle. Shunyamurti explains its origin, meaning, and structural and dynamic aspects that leave the ego in fear of annihilation. The situation can only be resolved by recognizing how radically we have been cut off from the nature of our Being, remembering the totality of the Self, and returning to our nobility of spirit and real Aryan truths. The soul is saved in surrender to the space of silent awareness, free of ego identification and language. May we know the joy of realization and compensation for the ordeal of this rite of passage into the kingdom of heaven.

    The Nancy Guthrie case is three psychological crises happening simultaneously — and each one is making the others worse. The suspect planned enough to surveil the home for weeks but executed with amateur gear and left DNA that came back with no matches in the national database. The investigation has been overwhelmed by fake ransom demands, contaminated evidence, dead-end detentions, and fifty thousand tips that have yet to identify a suspect. And the family has been living in a state of ambiguous loss — suspended between hope and grief — while the internet accused them of involvement in their own mother's disappearance.On True Crime Today, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott — author of The Minds of Mass Killers, with three decades of forensic mental health experience — delivers a full psychological examination of the Guthrie case across every dimension.She starts with the perpetrator's mind: the clinical significance of the gap between surveillance-level planning and Walmart-level execution, what targeting a pacemaker-dependent 84-year-old woman reveals about consequence processing, and what someone with no criminal record who escalated into this level of crime is experiencing psychologically as the pressure mounts daily.She moves to the chaos surrounding the case: what drives people to exploit a stranger's kidnapping with fabricated communications, how evidence contamination at this scale erodes both investigator confidence and public trust, and at what point the volume of tips and media coverage crosses from resource to obstacle.She finishes with the family's psychological ordeal: the clinical devastation of ambiguous loss sustained over weeks, the specific trauma of being publicly suspected while privately grieving, the compounding helplessness of watching institutional mistakes with no power to intervene, and the hard truth that Sheriff Nanos clearing the family as suspects doesn't undo the damage already inflicted by weeks of online accusation. Scott addresses whether a family can come through this kind of experience without permanent psychological scarring — and what the clinical research says about the answer.#NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #FullBreakdown #SuspectPsychology #FamilyTrauma #InvestigationNoise #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeToday #HiddenKillers #ForensicPsychologyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Grief, regret, loneliness, inflammation, pain. There are deeper layers than we are even aware of. Dana was a family physician who had managed gut issues for years. Constipation. Bloating. Acid reflux. She had every tool available to her. She rotated medications, over-the-counter laxatives, and antacids. She pushed through. Then one brave question changed everything. I asked her: what happened that should not have happened? Her posture collapsed. The tears came. And she made the connection — that was when my gut issues started. This is the biology behind what so many of us carry without knowing it. In the main episode this week, we explored how grief and gut health are connected. Now I'm taking you deeper into what's actually happening in your body when grief goes unrecognized — and the three types of grief that are hardest to name. In this episode you'll hear more about: 00:00 Grief, Regret & Going Gently: Setting the Tone 00:33 Check-In: Where Are You With Grief Right Now? 01:07 Prepare Your Support Tools (So You Don't Go Into Overwhelm) 01:51 Dana's Story: When “Managing Symptoms” Isn't Healing 04:21 The Brave Question: “What Happened That Shouldn't Have Happened?” 05:03 When the Body Connects the Dots: Stored Grief & the Gut 07:33 The 3 Hardest Types of Grief: Absent, Attachment & Heart Shock 09:01 Grief Isn't Stress: A Whole-Body Trauma Response 10:00 Guided Body Awareness: Hand on Heart, Hand on Gut 12:44 Stomach Support Practice + Closing Message to Your Belly 13:21 Wrap-Up: Completing the Session Grief is more than an emotion. It is a whole-body response. It creates overwhelm in a way that stress does not. When grief is stored, the gut holds it. The posture holds it. The throat holds it. Dana didn't just need to grieve what happened. She needed to grieve the silence, the years of self-blame, and the cost to her health she hadn't seen. Most of us carry grief we haven't named yet.

    War stories are easy to tell. There's action, adventure, and good vs evil. For most Veterans their service isn't defined or explained by their war stories. For most Veterans the story that is far most difficult to write...and to live...is the story they have to write themselves.In this episode, Fran Racioppi sat down with Steven Grayhm, writer and director of Sheepdog, a film dedicated to telling the most difficult story of our Veterans. The story of what happens to us, our families, our friends, and those around us when the war stories fade, reality sets in, and the hard work must actually begin. Steven explains his 14 year journey to make Sheepdog, the thousands of hours he spent with Veterans of all walks of life, his embedment at VA hospitals across the country, and the reality of independent filmmaking; a blue collar process rooted in grit before the red carpet, where every dollar is raised face to face and every decision carries weight. The film confronts veteran suicide honestly while reinforcing a simple truth. Ending your life does not end the pain. It ends the possibility of it ever getting better.What drove Sheepdog was not an interest in war, but a responsibility to understand what happens after it. Steven and his team studied the realities of trauma, addiction, brain injury, generational differences between Vietnam and post 9/11 service members, and the long shadow that war can cast over identity and purpose. They went where the conversations were uncomfortable, where the answers were not clean, and where trust had to be earned. The result is a film that focuses not on combat, but on the war within. Veterans are not victims. Sheepdog recognizes that service members volunteered, took risk, and earned something that does not disappear when the uniform comes off. A Veteran's perspective matters. Trauma exists, but it does not eliminate the responsibility of Veterans to continue their personal and professional growth post service. Sheepdog is a story about redefining purpose, about post traumatic growth, and about the courage required to take the first step forward when the path is unclear.

He helped co-create MoneyHunt, which aired on PBS as a predecessor to Shark Tank, and while those studio lights were bright, they were nothing compared to leading more than 1,500 people in kayaks over 14 miles of open sea or walking 1,100 miles across desert in Saudi, Jordan and Syria. Each time, he was forced to confront what failure meant, and figure out how to rebuild after. Miles has founded (and exited) three media companies, with a fourth underway, but it's the recovery from missed shots that taught him the most about grit and moving forward.Miles comes on the show, to help us continue to build community, around vulnerability and hope. Thank you Miles!https://milesspencer.com/Support the show

    Dr. Claire Plumbly is a clinical psychologist, trauma specialist, and author dedicated to helping people understand burnout and reconnect with themselves through compassionate, body-based healing. As the founder of Plum Psychology and an EMDR consultant based in the UK, Claire has spent her career supporting individuals recovering from chronic stress, trauma, and burnout. Through her one-to-one therapy work, intensive EMDR programs, and her book The Trauma of Burnout, Claire combines neuroscience, psychology, and practical regulation tools to help people move beyond survival mode and rediscover safety, clarity, and emotional balance. In this episode, host Shay Beider and Dr. Plumbly explore the crucial differences between stress and burnout, highlighting burnout as a syndrome characterized by emotional and physical exhaustion, detachment from what once brought joy, and reduced effectiveness in daily life. Claire shares how our autonomic nervous system shapes our ability to feel safe, think clearly, and connect with others, introducing accessible tools such as breathing exercises, the physiological sigh, progressive muscle relaxation, and bilateral tapping to help regulate the nervous system. Shay and Claire discuss the importance of boundaries, the impact of feeling "tired but wired," and the power of grounding techniques like the 5-4-3-2-1 method. Together, they explore the concept of "glimmers"—small cues of safety and joy that help restore balance—as well as embodied affirmations and compassion-focused therapy, which encourage people to relate to themselves with kindness rather than criticism. Their conversation offers practical and hopeful reminders that healing from burnout begins with learning to listen to the body, cultivate safety, and reconnect with what helps us feel whole again.

    What if the breaking point so many of us are feeling right now is actually the beginning of profound healing and purpose?  In this episode, returning guest and trauma expert Dr. Aimie Apigian helps you understand why so many conversations feel triggering—and how unresolved trauma, not just current events, may be at the root.  We explore the difference between resolved and unresolved trauma, and why being activated is a sign your body is asking for deeper safety and support.  We're talking about shifting pain into meaningful action—whether that's healing your body, setting boundaries, or standing up for change in a grounded way.  Dr. Aimie breaks down her sequence of healing and explains the science behind how trauma is stored and how it can truly be resolved.  Tune in here to go from overwhelmed to empowered!

It's finding that safety, but then layering in the support on a biology level, on a somatic level, on a mind level. Those are all the three levels that allow our mind and body to have the energy to actually process.” “When we've had this past trauma, our brain likes to put things into those kinds of boxes. so being able to step back and learn over time that while it's important to speak up, it's also important to choose who I share those things with because it's not meant for everybody.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order my latest book: The Perimenopause Revolution ⁠Dr. Aimie's book: The Biology of Trauma https://a.co/d/09grbJrF⁠ Dr. Aimie's Socials:  ⁠Dr. Aimie's Website ⁠ Instagram Facebook LinkedIn  YouTube RELATED EPISODES  681: The Biology of Trauma: How Stress Gets Stored in Your Body (and Passed On to Your Kids) and How You Can Start To Heal with Dr. Aimie Apigian 720: Why No One Talks About Loneliness in Midlife—And Why It's Not Just You 717: “I Don't Feel Like Myself Anymore”: The Mental & Emotional Reality of Perimenopause 702: How to Heal Trauma and Rebuild Trust Through Connectability with Anna Runkle

So this Nyamal woman decided to do something about it.Nyamal woman Tracy Westerman grew up in some of the most remote parts of Western Australia, moving from a station to a town called Useless Loop, eventually landing in the mining town of Tom Price.Tracy, the daughter of an Aboriginal mother and a white father, became the first person educated entirely in Tom Price to go on to University.When she arrived in Perth, she had never been on a bus or on an escalator, but she was fired up to study psychology.Tracy wanted to use the skills she learned in the city to deliver practical mental health care to Aboriginal people, and to help entire communities reeling from the impact of suicide and other mental health issues.Along the way to obtaining her doctorate, Tracy has become a business person, the WA Australian of the year, and she was awarded an Order of Australia Medal.Her next mission is to build an army of Indigenous psychologists to continue the work she's already started.Further informationJilya is published by University of Queensland Press.You can learn more about Dr Westerman's work here.To binge even more great episodes of the ‘Conversations podcast' with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

    Recorded live at a SAND Community Gathering (Feb 2026) Dr. Samah Jabr, a Palestinian psychiatrist and author of Radiance in Pain and Resilience, joins Dr. Mays Imad (with questions from the audience chat) for a conversation about what it means to stay human when the structures meant to protect people are the ones doing the harm. Drawing on decades of clinical work inside the occupation, Dr. Jabr moves past the “sanitized” versions of trauma to speak directly to the heart of colonial harm in Palestine. Central to this dialogue is an exploration of the deep ontological differences between Western psychiatric models and Palestinian lived experience. While Western frameworks often pathologize the individual through the lens of PTSD, Dr. Jabr introduces the concept of iptila—viewing tribulations through a framework of agency, faith, and collective endurance. She challenges the frequent romanticization of sumud (steadfastness), reframing it not as a poetic trope, but as a grueling relational practice and an ethical refusal to disappear when everything conspires toward Palestinian erasure. In a reality where the harm never ends, memory becomes a battlefield, grief a form of testimony, bearing witness an active refusal to normalize the unacceptable, and storytelling a vital survival infrastructure against the assassination of memory.

    Longevity isn't just workouts, supplements, and recovery tools, it starts with nervous system health. In this episode, Dr. Aimie Apigian explains what trauma actually is (not a label, but a measurable physiological response), how the body shifts from stress into overwhelm, and why “pushing through” often turns into years of avoidance, numbing, and hidden internal strain.She breaks down the biology behind the trauma response, including the role of adrenaline, cortisol timing, and how mitochondrial capacity influences resilience. You'll also learn her practical, body-based approach to creating “safe enough” in real time, plus the three phases of healing: safety, support, and expansion, so you don't stay stuck avoiding triggers forever.In this conversation:Stress vs trauma response (and what changes physiologically)Why adrenaline drives the response and cortisol arrives laterHow the body stores trauma as patterns, not just memoriesThe 3 nervous system states and the thoughts they generateA simple somatic exercise to build safety in the bodyWhy devices/meds can be bridges, not the destinationUsing biomarkers + wearables without fooling yourselfWhy modern media can create vicarious traumaJoin the most comprehensive *female-specific community for health and longevity optimization.* After over a decade dedicated to human performance and women's health, I created this space to share everything you need to know to optimize health and lifespan.

I talk honestly about what it's like to lose a brother in uniform, how PTSD and unspoken trauma eat people alive, and what changed in me after standing in the aftermath of a death that never should have happened.As a former army medic and paramedic, I've seen a lot of death. But nothing prepares you for losing someone you know, someone you worked with, someone who carried the same weight you did. Greg Turner died by suicide in the back of his ambulance. A place where he had saved countless lives.

Jen Hatmaker sits down with Nedra Glover Tawwab, Emily Nagoski, Kobe Campbell, and Kate Bowler for an honest conversation about what it really means to wake up in midlife. Together, they explore where awakening often shows up first—our relationships, bodies, mental health, and faith. This isn't about fixing yourself. It's about noticing what's shifting, understanding why it feels disruptive, and realizing you're not alone. From boundaries and burnout to anxiety, trauma, body shame, and faith after certainty, this episode offers language and clarity for women navigating midlife change with courage.

You're paying attention.” — Jen Hatmaker “Midlife clarity isn't cruelty. It's information.” — Nedra Glover Tawwab “Healing doesn't mean you stop feeling. It means your responses finally make sense.” — Kobe Campbell “Anxiety can bring clarity—but it's not meant to be the fuel forever.” — Kobe Campbell “You don't complete stress by thinking it through. You complete it by letting it move through your body.” — Emily Nagoski “Certainty falling away doesn't mean faith is gone.

In this episode, Tracy and Dr. Gogne discuss ADHD and NVLD in adult women, how visual spatial differences show up in daily life, the overlap between trauma and addiction, the role of stimulants in recovery when carefully managed, and why pregnancy and postpartum can intensify symptoms through hormonal shifts and sleep deprivation.If you are in a season where your systems stopped working, this conversation offers context.

    This episode wrestles with trauma, murder, and suffering, and explains why the way you see the world—your worldview—largely determines how deeply you are wounded and how you process life's most painful events. Drawing from real cold-case homicides and personal conversations with victims' families, J. Warner Wallace shows how expectations about God, goodness, justice, and life itself either shatter under the weight of evil or are refined and strengthened when they match reality.​ You'll hear how an underdeveloped or shallow view of the Christian faith can collapse when tragedy strikes, and why a robust, well-thought-out Christian worldview can actually prepare you for suffering rather than promise you a pain-free life. The episode summarizes key ideas from J. Warner's work on the problem of evil—why God might allow horrific events, how this relates to free will, eternity, and human sin, and why Christianity offers not just an explanation for suffering but hope and meaning in the middle of it.​ To go deeper on these themes of evil, justice, and the Christian worldview, check out J. Warner's book The Truth in True Crime here: https://amzn.to/3LNWxp6  If this conversation helps you think more clearly about trauma and God's plan, please follow/subscribe to the podcast and take a moment to rate and review it in your app—your feedback helps more people discover this content and process their own suffering through the lens of the gospel.

But more than football, this is a conversation about a man still standing. Still finding joy in the small things and the people around him who genuinely care.As Paul himself says, people know Paul.

Drawing from his experiences and cultural insights, he shows how loneliness pushes people toward substances as a way to cope, tracing the cycles that trap those predisposed to it amid the tension between real connections and shallow societal demands. He highlights the challenge of building deep relationships in a world of empty interactions, framing addiction as an escape from inner turmoil, and calls for self-awareness to confront its broader damage while finding paths to healing through genuine bonds and candid talk.The livestream continues to a donor-only hour!
