Metabolism affects everything: your energy, fat burning, cravings, sleep, stress response, and even how "resistant" weight loss can feel. If you're dealing with fatigue, brain fog, low energy, bloating, or that frustrating sense that your body is working against you—this episode is for you. Have you ever wondered why you can be eating "healthy," watching portions, and still feel stuck with weight loss resistance… especially in perimenopause? Or why stress seems to hijack your metabolism, your gut health, and your hormones all at once? Today I'm giving you a deep, practical look at what metabolism actually is, why calorie counting often backfires, and what your body needs to restore hormone balance, digestive health, and metabolic momentum. I also bust the biggest myths that keep women defeated—like the idea that your metabolism "crashes" at middle age—and I walk you through what's really happening when stress, sleep quality, inflammation, IBS symptoms, and blood sugar swings start shaping the way your body stores fat and produces energy. You'll come away understanding the "why" behind your exhaustion and what's quietly blocking your metabolic potential. Key points you'll hear inside the episode The simple metabolism definition that changes everything—and why it's not just "calories in, calories out" when you're dealing with fatigue, hormone balance issues, and weight loss resistance The surprising research on metabolism and aging (and why perimenopause isn't a "metabolism death sentence," even if it feels like one) The stress–sleep–metabolism loop: how chronic stress and poor sleep quality can shut down fat burning, increase cravings, and worsen brain fog and low energy Why focusing on digestive health, gut microbiome support, and food quality can shift metabolism—without obsessing over calorie counting Metabolism isn't a punishment your body hands you. It's a system you can work with. And once you understand how metabolism, hormones, stress, sleep, and gut health connect, it becomes easier to stop blaming yourself and start changing the conditions that are keeping you stuck. In this episode, I'll help you reframe the entire metabolism conversation—especially if you've been told you're "just getting older," that it's menopause, that it's your genetics, or that you simply need more willpower. Your body isn't broken. More often, it's responding exactly as it was designed to respond… to chronic stress, poor sleep, inflammation, low-quality fuel, and a life that keeps your nervous system stuck in overdrive. If you're ready to feel more energized, clearer, and more in control of your appetite, cravings, and digestion—press play. I'll give you the "what" and the "why" so you finally understand what's driving your fatigue and weight loss resistance, and you'll hear the practical next steps inside the recording. Your metabolism is working for you every second of the day. Let's start supporting it like it deserves. Stop wasting time (and money) on products that don't work.

Mussel farmers are warning that plans to discharge partially treated sewage into the ocean to deal with Christchurch's Bromley stink, could wipe out aqua culture. The City Council's planning to dump 30% of partially treated wastewater into the ocean to ease pressure on the poorly operating treatment plant. Two thousand tonnes of green lipped mussels come from eight Aroma New Zealand farms in Banks Peninsula annually. Company director Ben Winters told Mike Hosking chlorine and sewage don't need to go to sea. He warns if plans go ahead, it could be a national disaster.

How to Move to Mexico: Visas, Costs, Taxes, and the Best Places to Live Mexico is one of the most popular countries in the world for Americans who want a lower cost of living, a warmer climate, and a richer day to day culture without moving halfway across the planet. Many expats are retirees, remote workers, or entrepreneurs who find that their money goes further while they gain a more relaxed lifestyle. For someone in the southwestern U.S. (like Arizona), Mexico is especially appealing because you can often drive instead of fly, keep close ties with friends and family, and still feel like you've made a big lifestyle upgrade. This guide walks through why and where to move, what it really costs, how visas work, how Mexican taxes function, when you might owe them, and other real world considerations that don't always show up in glossy travel articles. ________________________________________ Why move to Mexico? People move to Mexico for a mix of financial, personal, and lifestyle reasons. You can open this section with a simple story: for example, a couple selling a house in the U.S., paying cash for a home or condo in Mexico, and cutting their monthly expenses nearly in half while eating better and traveling more. Key motivations to highlight: Lower cost of living Mexico's overall cost of living is significantly lower than in the U.S. Rents in many Mexican cities are substantially cheaper than comparable U.S. cities, groceries and fresh produce are affordable, and services like cleaning, childcare, and home repairs cost far less. A couple who spends 5,000 USD per month in the U.S. can often live comfortably in Mexico on 2,000–3,500 USD per month, depending on city and lifestyle. Proximity and connectivity Unlike moving to Europe or Asia, living in Mexico means you're usually one flight away from your U.S. hometown. Major cities like Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Cancún, and Mérida have robust air connections. Internet infrastructure has improved a lot; mid size cities now often have fiber optic service, making remote work highly feasible. Lifestyle and climate variety Mexico is huge and geographically diverse. You can choose from: • Coastal beach towns with surf culture and sunsets • High altitude colonial cities with spring like weather • Mega cities with world class dining, museums, and nightlife • Smaller, artsy towns with vibrant local traditions You get to decide whether you want small town community, cosmopolitan buzz, or something in between. Culture, food, and community You'll never run out of festivals, markets, and regional dishes. For many expats, the biggest upgrade isn't just cheaper rent, but living in a place where there's always music in the plazas, food in the streets, and a sense of community. In many popular locations, there is also an established expat network to help you orient. Healthcare Private healthcare in Mexico is dramatically more affordable than in the U.S. Many expats pay out of pocket for routine care and buy local or international health insurance for major events. In larger cities you'll find modern hospitals and specialists, and in some cases doctors who trained abroad. ________________________________________ Where to move in Mexico Mexico isn't a single experience. Moving to Oaxaca is very different from moving to Mazatlán or Guadalajara. This section should help you “try on” a few places in your imagination. Mexico City Vibe: Big city, cosmopolitan, urban energy. Pros: World class restaurants, museums, art, music, and nightlife; excellent air connections; plenty of coworking spaces and job opportunities with international companies. Cons: Higher rents than many other Mexican cities, traffic and air pollution, security can vary by neighborhood. Mexico City suits people who want an urban life and don't mind density. It works well for younger professionals or creatives, and for remote workers who want big city culture at a lower price than New York, LA, or San Francisco. Guadalajara Vibe: Large city with a strong tech scene and traditional Jalisco culture (mariachi, tequila). Pros: Big city services without quite the chaos of Mexico City, growing startup and tech ecosystem, nearby towns and lakes for weekend escapes. Cons: Some neighborhoods can feel sprawling; traffic is very real; summers can be hot. Guadalajara is a good fit for remote workers and entrepreneurs who want a mix of modern infrastructure and traditional Mexican character. Lake Chapala (Ajijic/Chapala) Vibe: Classic retiree and snowbird destination near a large lake. Pros: Mild climate, large English speaking expat community, social clubs and activities, walkable village feel in places like Ajijic. Cons: Heavy expat presence can make it feel less “Mexican” to some; limited big city amenities compared to Guadalajara. This area is ideal for retirees who want community, comfort, and a gentle pace of life within reach of a major city. San Miguel de Allende Vibe: Picturesque colonial city, artsy, charming, and heavily international. Pros: Beautiful historic center, strong arts and cultural scene, plenty of restaurants and galleries. Cons: One of the more expensive inland cities; tourism and expat presence drive up housing costs. San Miguel appeals to people who prioritize aesthetics, architecture, and culture and are willing to pay a premium. Querétaro Vibe: Clean, orderly, fast growing city with industry and a large middle class. Pros: Safe reputation, good infrastructure, beautiful colonial center, strong job market in manufacturing and services. Cons: Less “touristy charm” in some newer suburbs; housing prices have been rising with growth. Querétaro works well for families and professionals who want a modern, organized city with good schools and services. Puebla Vibe: Historic, livable city with serious food culture and nearby nature. Pros: Gorgeous colonial architecture, famous cuisine (like mole poblano), access to mountains and smaller towns, a mix of traditional markets and modern malls. Cons: Higher altitude and cooler winters than coastal areas; still under the radar for many expats, so less English support than in Lake Chapala or San Miguel. Puebla suits people who love culture, gastronomy, and city life but don't need a huge expat bubble. Oaxaca City Vibe: Cultural and culinary capital with strong Indigenous traditions and arts. Pros: Outstanding food, vibrant markets, year round festivals, access to mountains and rural communities, often lower rents than more famous expat hubs. Cons: Smaller airport and fewer direct international flights; infrastructure can be a bit more rustic compared to megacities. Oaxaca is great for people who want deep culture, don't mind a bit of grit, and prefer authenticity over polish. Mérida and the Yucatán Vibe: Colonial city, family friendly, often cited for safety. Pros: Strong sense of community, rich history, cenotes and beaches nearby, growing expat scene. Cons: Hot and humid much of the year; air conditioning can be essential. Mérida appeals to families, retirees, and anyone who wants a mix of culture and relative safety in a warm climate. Puerto Vallarta / Riviera Nayarit Vibe: Beach town/medium city with a strong expat and LGBTQ+ community. Pros: Ocean, sunsets, whale watching, strong tourism economy, many English speaking services, international airport. Cons: Housing and dining in tourist zones are more expensive; high season crowds; summer humidity. This is an easy landing spot if you want a beach lifestyle and community support from day one. Mazatlán Vibe: Working port city with long beaches and a growing expat presence. Pros: Ocean side living, more “local” feel than some resort towns, improving infrastructure, cost of living that can be lower than in ultra commercial tourist areas. Cons: Humid climate; parts of the city feel industrial; some areas are still rough around the edges. Mazatlán is appealing if you want the Pacific coast without the heavy commercialization and highest prices of places like Los Cabos or Cancún. Place Vibe Big Pros Main Tradeoffs Mexico City Mega‑city Culture, jobs, flights Cost, traffic, pollution Guadalajara Big, traditional Tech scene, culture Sprawl, traffic Lake Chapala Retiree village Mild climate, expat community Fewer urban amenities San Miguel Artsy colonial Beauty, culture Higher housing costs Querétaro Modern, orderly Safety, infrastructure Rising prices Puebla Historic, foodie Cuisine, architecture, nature nearby Less expat support Oaxaca City Cultural hub Food, festivals, affordability Smaller airport, rustic edges Mérida Warm, family‑oriented Safety, history Heat and humidity Puerto Vallarta Beach city Ocean, expat support Tourist prices in key areas Mazatlán Port/beach city More local feel, coast Humidity, some gritty areas ________________________________________ Cost of living in Mexico Readers want numbers, but it's better to provide realistic ranges and examples than a single “magic” figure. Basic cost structure Housing Rents vary wildly by location. A modest one bedroom in a non touristy city might rent for the equivalent of a few hundred dollars per month. In upscale neighborhoods of Mexico City or popular beach towns, modern apartments can cost as much or more than many mid tier U.S. cities. Utilities and internet Electricity is affordable unless you run heavy air conditioning all year, which you might need on the coasts and in the lowlands. Internet and mobile service are reasonably priced, with fiber available in many urban areas. Food and groceries Fresh fruits, vegetables, and staples are cheap, especially if you shop in local markets. Imported items (certain cheeses, specialty products) are more expensive. Eating at local restaurants and street food stalls is inexpensive; high end dining in major cities is still far cheaper than equivalent places in the U.S. Transportation Public transit, taxis, and app based rides are affordable. Owning a car involves fuel, insurance, and maintenance costs, but these are usually lower than in the U.S. You can often live car free in dense cities like Mexico City, Guadalajara, or Puebla. Example monthly budgets (rough, per household) Frugal single in a non touristy city • Rent (studio/1 bed): 400–600 USD equivalent • Utilities and internet: 70–120 • Groceries and local dining: 250–350 • Local transport and misc.: 100–150 • Total: roughly 800–1,200 USD per month Comfortable couple in a mid range city • Rent (nice 2 bed apartment): 700–1,200 USD • Utilities, internet, mobile: 120–200 • Groceries and eating out several times a week: 400–600 • Health insurance (local or international): 200–400 • Transport, entertainment, gyms, etc.: 200–400 • Total: roughly 1,600–2,800 USD per month Beach town or premium neighborhood living In high demand areas (like parts of Puerto Vallarta, San Miguel de Allende, or prime zones in Mexico City), you can easily spend 2,500–4,000 USD per month or more for a couple if you choose modern housing, eat out frequently, and live a more upscale lifestyle. Startup costs Don't forget one time or irregular costs: • Visa fees for temporary or permanent residency • International flights or moving your belongings • First month's rent plus deposit (sometimes more for furnished places) • Basic furniture and household goods if you're not renting furnished • Car purchase or import (if you choose to have one) Encourage readers to arrive with a cash cushion: at least 3–6 months of living expenses plus relocation costs. ________________________________________ Visa options and residency paths Mexico's visa system offers several ways to stay, depending on your plans and finances. Tourist stay Many foreigners enter Mexico as tourists without a visa and receive permission to stay up to a certain number of days (often up to 180 days, but it is not guaranteed). A tourist stay: • Does not allow you to work for Mexican employers • Does not let you access local residency benefits • Is not meant as a long term “back to back” solution Tourist entries are good for exploration trips but not for a full time move. Temporary resident (Residente Temporal) Temporary residency is the most common path for people who want to live in Mexico for more than six months without immediately going permanent. General characteristics: • Usually granted initially for 1 year, with the possibility to renew up to 4 years • Allows you to live in Mexico full time, open local bank accounts, and sometimes get local health coverage • Does not automatically grant permission to work; if you plan to work in Mexico you need work authorization attached to your residency Most temporary residents qualify via financial solvency (proof of income or savings). Typical recent numbers: • Monthly income requirement: roughly in the low to mid 4,000 USD range for the last 6–12 months, depending on the consulate • Savings/investment requirement: often in the high five figures to low six figures in USD equivalent, again varying by consulate Each Mexican consulate sets its own exact thresholds and evidence rules, so readers must always check with the specific consulate where they'll apply. Permanent resident (Residente Permanente) Permanent residency is ideal if you plan to live in Mexico indefinitely. Characteristics: • No need for frequent renewals • Lets you live in Mexico as long as you like • Often used by retirees or those with strong ties to Mexico (like family connections) You can qualify either: • Directly from abroad if you meet higher income or savings requirements, often thousands of dollars more per month than temporary residency; or • By first holding temporary residency for several years (for many, 4 years), then converting to permanent status inside Mexico. Again, the exact thresholds and documentation depend on the consulate and can change year to year. Work visas and business If you plan to work for a Mexican employer or run a Mexican company that needs your presence, you need proper work authorization. Basic ideas: • A Mexican employer can sponsor you for a temporary resident visa with permission to work if they are registered with the immigration authorities. • You cannot legally work in Mexico for a Mexican entity on a tourist visa. • If you intend to start a business (for example, a hotel, restaurant, or tourism operation), you'll need legal and tax advice to structure it correctly and secure the right visa. ________________________________________ Visa process: step by step overview You can treat this as a checklist. 1. Clarify your plan Decide how long you want to stay and whether you'll work, retire, or just live on savings or remote income. That determines whether you need temporary or permanent residency, and whether you need work authorization. 2. Choose a consulate and check requirements Review the website of the Mexican consulate you'll use (near your U.S. residence, for example). Requirements vary: one might emphasize income, another savings; some want 12 months of bank statements, others 6. 3. Gather documents Typical documents include: passport, completed application form, passport photos, bank and/or investment statements, pension or Social Security award letters, marriage or birth certificates if applying with family members. 4. Book and attend the consulate appointment You'll have a short interview, submit your documents, and pay a fee. If approved, the consulate places a visa sticker in your passport, usually valid for a limited period to enter Mexico and “activate” your residency. 5. Enter Mexico and finalize at immigration (INM) Within a set number of days after entering Mexico on your new visa (often 30 days), you must go to your local immigration office, complete forms, pay fees, and provide biometrics to receive your residency card. 6. Renew or convert (for temporary residents) Temporary residents must renew before their card expires, often annually at first. After the allowed number of years, many can convert to permanent residency. Many applicants use a local immigration facilitator or attorney, especially if their Spanish is limited or if they have a more complex case. ________________________________________ How Mexican taxes work This is where readers start wondering, “How much are Mexican taxes, and what do they tax?” Income tax (ISR) Mexico has a progressive income tax called ISR (Impuesto Sobre la Renta) that applies to individuals. For tax residents (people who are considered resident in Mexico for tax purposes): • The system uses progressive tax brackets. • Rates start at low single digits on small incomes (around 1.9%) and rise stepwise. • The top marginal rate is around 35% on high incomes (at several million pesos per year). • Most employment income is taxed through withholding by the employer, with an annual true up in a tax return. For non residents (people who are not tax resident in Mexico but have Mexican source income): • There is usually an exemption for a small initial amount of income. • Above that, one common pattern is 15% tax on mid range income and 30% on higher income, depending on the type and level of income. You don't need to quote exact peso thresholds to readers; it's enough to say that most ordinary incomes are taxed at moderate rates, while high incomes pay up to about 35%. What income do they tax? For Mexican tax residents, Mexico generally taxes worldwide income: • Wages and salaries from Mexican or foreign employers • Self employment and business income • Rental income from property in Mexico or abroad • Interest, dividends, and capital gains • Some pensions and retirement income, depending on the source and treaties For non residents, Mexico usually taxes only Mexican source income: • Income from work physically performed in Mexico • Rental income from Mexican real estate • Business profits from a Mexican business or permanent establishment • Some Mexican source interest and dividends If your readers are U.S. citizens, remind them: they must still file a U.S. tax return even if they also become Mexican tax residents, and they may be able to offset Mexican taxes through tax credits or exclusions. Value added tax (IVA) Mexico's sales tax is a value added tax called IVA. • The standard IVA rate is 16%, applied to most goods and services, including many consumer purchases and professional services. • There is a reduced rate (often around 8%) in certain border regions to promote competitiveness. • Some items are zero rated or exempt: many basic foods, some medicines, exports, certain types of housing, and some education and health services. As a consumer, you see IVA embedded in most prices, much like sales tax in the U.S. For businesses (like a hotel or restaurant), you collect IVA on sales and remit it to the government. Other common taxes and contributions Depending on what you do in Mexico, you might also encounter: • Social security contributions for employees (if you work for a Mexican employer) • Property taxes (predial), which are generally much lower than typical U.S. property taxes on a comparable property • Vehicle registration fees if you own a car You don't need to go into detail here, but it's worth flagging that these exist and are part of the overall tax picture. ________________________________________ Tax examples: retiree, remote worker, and Mexican employed American These simplified examples assume the person has become a Mexican tax resident (over 183 days per year in Mexico and/or center of vital interests in Mexico). Real world outcomes depend on exact numbers, deductions, the current year's brackets, and treaty interpretation, so they are for illustration only and not tax advice. Example 1: Retiree getting 30,000 USD/year in U.S. Social Security Assumptions: • 30,000 USD/year in U.S. Social Security, no other income. • Exchange rate of 18 MXN per USD → 540,000 MXN/year. • Lives in Mexico full time and is treated as a tax resident. Key points: • Foreign pensions, including U.S. Social Security, may need to be reported to the Mexican tax authority (SAT) once you are a Mexican tax resident. • In practice, some advisors and expats find that U.S. Social Security and U.S. retirement distributions are primarily taxed in the U.S., with Mexico focusing more on Mexican source income, but the safest assumption is that Mexico can tax worldwide income and may expect you to declare it. How you might explain it to readers: • If you are a retiree with 30,000 USD/year in Social Security and no other income, you will still deal with U.S. tax rules on that income. • Once you become a Mexican tax resident, Mexico may require you to report that income, but whether they actually tax it depends on treaty rules and how your situation is interpreted. • A cross border tax professional can tell you whether you'll see any Mexican tax on that Social Security or whether your liabilities remain mostly on the U.S. side. Plain English takeaway: retirees living on moderate U.S. Social Security often don't get hammered by Mexican income tax, but they should plan on at least reporting their income and coordinating U.S. and Mexican filings. Example 2: Remote American worker living in Mexico, making 80,000 USD/year from a U.S. employer Assumptions: • 80,000 USD/year salary from a U.S. company, work performed remotely while living in Mexico. • Exchange rate 18 MXN/USD → 1,440,000 MXN per year. • Spends more than 183 days/year in Mexico, so is a Mexican tax resident. Key points: • Mexico taxes its residents on worldwide income, which includes your U.S. salary. • If you are effectively working from Mexico, Mexico views that as Mexican taxable employment or self employment income, even if your employer is in the U.S. Approximate effect: • At around 1.44 million MXN/year, you'll be in higher ISR brackets, facing a top marginal rate of 35% on the upper slice of your income and a blended effective rate likely in the low to mid 20% range, after standard calculations. • You still file a U.S. return every year. • You may use the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion and/or foreign tax credits to prevent being fully taxed twice. If you're a U.S. citizen working remotely from Mexico and earning 80,000 USD/year from a U.S. employer, expect to owe Mexican income tax as a resident and still file a U.S. return. The good news is that, with proper planning, Mexican tax you pay can usually be credited against your U.S. tax so you're not double taxed on the same income. Example 3: American earning 60,000 USD/year from a Mexican employer Assumptions: • American citizen employed by a Mexican company, working in Mexico. • 60,000 USD/year salary → 1,080,000 MXN/year at 18 MXN/USD. • Treated as a Mexican tax resident. Key points: • This is clearly Mexican source employment income. • Your Mexican employer will withhold ISR from your paycheck based on the progressive tables, plus social security and other payroll contributions. • At roughly 1.08 million MXN/year, you're again in higher brackets, with an effective tax rate that can land roughly in the low to mid 20% range, depending on deductions and credits. • As a U.S. citizen, you still file a U.S. tax return but can typically use foreign tax credits and, possibly, the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion to avoid paying full tax twice. If you're an American making about 60,000 USD/year working for a Mexican employer, you'll see Mexican taxes withheld from every paycheck and you'll still file in the U.S., but in many cases the Mexican tax you pay will substantially offset what you owe the IRS. ________________________________________ When do you have to file Mexican taxes? Taxes depend on tax residency, not just on immigration status (visa type). When do you become a Mexican tax resident? Mexico may treat you as a tax resident when: • You spend more than 183 days in Mexico in a calendar year; or • Mexico is the “center of your vital interests,” meaning your main economic or family ties are there (for example, your spouse and minor children live in Mexico and you earn most of your income from Mexican sources). Residency for tax purposes is a legal determination, not just a personal choice, so it's wise to consult a tax professional if you're unsure. Filing and paying For Mexican tax residents: • Individuals generally file an annual income tax return, often in the spring of the following year (recent years use April 30 as a common deadline). • Some types of income require monthly provisional payments. • Employers withhold tax on salary, and banks or brokers may withhold on interest and other income. For non residents: • Mexican tax is often withheld at source by the payer (for example, a Mexican employer or tenant), at the applicable non resident rates. A simple rule of thumb for your readers: • If you spend less than 183 days in Mexico per year and don't earn Mexican source income, you usually don't file a Mexican tax return (but you still file in your home country). • If you live in Mexico most of the year, own a business there, or earn income from Mexican property or employment, expect to deal with Mexican tax returns and possibly to be treated as a tax resident. Always encourage readers to get cross border tax advice, especially U.S. citizens who may need to coordinate U.S. and Mexican returns. ________________________________________ Other important considerations Rounding out the blog with practical and cultural issues makes it feel grounded. Healthcare and insurance • Many expats use a combination of local private healthcare and insurance (either Mexican private plans or international expat policies). • Some long term residents enroll in Mexico's public healthcare system, but quality and access can vary by region. • Before moving, review how your current health insurance will work abroad and plan for major emergencies. Banking and money • Most people keep at least one bank account in their home country and open a Mexican account after they get residency, making it easier to pay rent and utilities. • Money transfer services and online banks can offer better exchange rates and lower fees than traditional bank wires. • U.S. citizens must also be mindful of foreign account reporting requirements (like FBAR and FATCA). Renting vs buying property • Renting first is usually smart. It gives you time to test neighborhoods, understand noise patterns, get a feel for the climate, and decide if you really like the city. • Buying property in Mexico can be attractive, especially in less expensive markets, but there are legal nuances, including special structures (like fideicomisos) for coastal and border properties. • Using a reputable notario (a specialized legal official) and real estate professionals is critical. Safety • Safety in Mexico is highly regional and neighborhood specific. Some places are very comfortable for day to day life, while others have serious security issues. • Research specific cities and neighborhoods, use recent data, and talk to locals and expats on the ground, not just headline news. • As in any country, common sense precautions (knowing where not to go at night, avoiding displays of wealth, learning local norms) go a long way. Language and integration • Learning Spanish is one of the best investments an expat can make. Even basic Spanish opens doors: cheaper local services, smoother dealings with bureaucracy, better relationships with neighbors. • Integration means respecting local customs, supporting local businesses, and avoiding “little bubble” lifestyles where expats only interact with each other. Working or running a business • Anyone planning to run a hotel, restaurant, tour company, or other business in Mexico needs clarity on immigration status, work authorization, and tax obligations. • A business that employs locals (for example, a hotel/restaurant concept in Puebla or a tourism operation in Oaxaca or Mazatlán) can be both profitable and socially impactful, but it requires upfront planning with local lawyers, accountants, and immigration professionals. • Operating “informally” or on a tourist visa can create serious immigration and tax problems.

Free DNA Activation Masterclass + 21-Day Abundance Meditation: https://masterclass.samuelbleemd.com/dnaPeptides I use personally to regenerate, heal, and stay sharp: https://limitlesslivingIn this episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD sits down for a raw and unfiltered solo conversation about the hidden realities of modern psychiatry, the illusion of “chemical imbalance,” and the forgotten truth of the superconscious soul. From working inside elite institutions like Cedars-Sinai and the University of Washington Medical Center to witnessing firsthand the numbing of children and elders in psychiatric facilities, his story is a testament to courage, awakening, and spiritual integrity.Dr. Lee shares how going through his own diagnoses—major depression, anxiety, paranoia, addiction, even a manic episode that led him to call off his wedding became the very initiation that opened his awareness beyond the DSM-5 and into the spiritual dimensions of healing. This episode dives deep into the limitations of symptom-based psychiatry, the concept of the superconscious mind, and why true healing requires reconnecting to the soul not suppressing it.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• You Are Not Your Diagnosis• The “Chemical Imbalance” Theory Was Never Proven• Numbing Symptoms Is Not the Same as Healing the Soul• Society May Be Sick Not the Child• Your Superconscious Mind Holds the Key to Transformation• Healing Begins When You Reclaim Your Spiritual SovereigntyDr. Lee vulnerably explores what happens when elders are medicated into numbness at the end of life, when children are labeled instead of understood, and when psychiatrists are pressured to prescribe instead of connect. He reveals why he walked away from a lucrative partnership at one of Los Angeles' largest psychiatric hospital firms and chose instead to speak from his soul.This is not just a critique of a system. It's a call to remember what psychiatry originally meant: healing the psyche the soul.

Interview with Jennifer Murphy, RN

Some royal commentators think that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is being treated "too harshly".See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fatigue, hormone balance, gut health, and weight loss resistance all get a lot louder in midlife — and if you've ever wondered why you're doing "all the right things" but still dealing with brain fog, low energy, IBS, bloating, or that exhausted, wired feeling, this episode is going to land in a big way. In this conversation, I'm joined by health journalist Meghan Rabbitt (who's spent nearly 25 years interviewing top experts) to talk about the new rules women need to know to protect their health across the lifespan — especially through perimenopause, menopause, and everything that can shift your metabolism, stress response, digestive health, and sense of clarity. What I love about Meghan's work is how she brings evidence-based reporting into real life, so you can walk into your next appointment feeling confident, informed, and ready to advocate for yourself. If you've ever left a doctor's office feeling dismissed… or you've brushed off your own symptoms because your labs look "normal"… you're going to feel seen here. We get into what women commonly miss in midlife (and why it matters), how to make sense of conflicting health advice online, and what it actually looks like to become the CEO of your own healthcare — without feeling overwhelmed. Key points (listen for the details inside the episode) The "CEO of your health" mindset that can shift everything — especially when fatigue, hormone imbalance, and digestive issues start stacking up Why women normalize pain, exhaustion, and heavy symptoms — and how that can quietly worsen outcomes over time The simple research skill that helps you filter misinformation, make smarter choices, and protect your brain health and metabolism The midlife missed opportunity that can impact cognitive decline, energy, hormone balance, and long-term health — and what to do differently now Why this matters if you're navigating fatigue, hormone balance, and gut health in midlife A lot of women hit perimenopause and suddenly their usual strategies stop working. Energy drops. Brain fog creeps in. Bloating and digestive issues get louder. IBS flares. Weight loss resistance shows up out of nowhere. And the frustrating part is that it can all look "fine" on standard labs — which leads to the classic spiral of self-doubt: maybe this is just what midlife feels like. This episode is a reset. Not because we're handing you a complicated protocol, but because we're talking about the foundation: how to understand your body well enough to ask better questions, get better care, and stop dismissing symptoms that are trying to give you information. We also talk about the "why" behind the habits you hear about all the time — movement, strength training, and the real brain-protective benefits of exercise. Because when you understand the reason something matters, you're far more likely to follow through (and you're less likely to get pulled into the hype of whatever the latest online trend is). And if stress has been a constant for you — the kind that affects sleep and hormones, increases inflammation, shifts cortisol, and disrupts the gut-brain connection — you'll appreciate the way we frame personal advocacy. The goal isn't to do everything perfectly. The goal is to know what matters, prioritize what's most relevant to your symptoms, and take one steady step at a time. This is the kind of episode that makes you want to hit play, grab a note app, and walk into your next appointment with a completely different level of clarity.

Did you have a C-section and now notice spotting that won't quit? Are you dealing with pelvic pain, confusing symptoms, or trouble getting pregnant, and wondering if they're connected? Has anyone ever mentioned the word isthmocele to you… or is this the first time you're hearing it? In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine explains a condition many patients are never warned about after a C-section: an isthmocele. She tells us what an isthmocele is, how it can form in a prior C-section scar, and why it can sometimes lead to unexpected bleeding, pain, or fertility challenges.  You'll learn the five key symptoms that may signal an isthmocele, how this condition can affect fertility and future pregnancy plans, and the pros and cons of monitoring versus treating. Dr. Shahine also talks us through when surgical repair may be helpful, and the exact questions to ask your doctor so you can advocate for informed, personalized care.  If you've had a C-section and feel like something isn't quite right, this episode offers knowledge, reassurance, and a clear path forward. In this episode you'll hear: [0:46] Understanding C-section scars: Isthnocele [2:21] What is an isthmocele? [3:24] How common?

In this episode, Dr. Madeline O'Sullivan discusses her retrospective study of U.S. veterans in the Veterans Health Administration, examining outcomes among patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors for cancer. She explains how the cohorts were defined, how use and timing of immunosuppressive therapies were analyzed, and how mortality and cause of death were determined. Dr. O'Sullivan summarizes the patient population, cancer types represented, and key findings on survival differences between RA and non-RA groups, as well as insights from secondary analyses and important study limitations. She also reflects on balancing research with clinical training, the mentorship that supported her work, lessons learned, and practical advice for trainees aiming to complete and publish research projects. 

Rena recently read about how to communicate with "Earth types" - people who are highly sensitive and need to be spoken to with extra care and consideration. As she read through all the rules for how to talk to Earth types, she kept thinking - shouldn't we just talk to everyone this way? In this conversation, Rabbi Yonasan and Rena Reiser explore personality types (Earth, Air, Water, Fire) and why Earth types are considered more sensitive. They discuss how Earth types rely heavily on external validation and can be quickly hurt by how people relate to them. But a deeper question emerges: if these communication principles come from nonviolent communication - which helps us see the tzelem Elokim in every person - then why are we only applying them to "sensitive" people? Don't all human beings deserve dignity, validation, and to be truly heard? They explore what it means to be the "canary in the coal mine," why reflecting back what someone says can help move conversations forward (instead of talking in circles until 3am), and the power of recognizing that every person you're talking to is a human being with their own rich inner world. This Episode Is For You If: - You've been told you're "too sensitive" your whole life - You're wondering if you need to walk on eggshells around certain people - You have late-night conversations that go in circles for hours - You say "yes, yes, I hear you" but the other person doesn't feel heard - You're curious about nonviolent communication - You want to understand why some people seem to react more strongly than others - You believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity but struggle with how to actually do that - You're an Earth type and want to understand your sensitivity as a strength

Dr. Steven Baroody, certified Cox® physician practicing in Manchester NH, presents his relieving treatment plan and outcome of a patient with bilateral neck pain and cervicogenic headache with chiropractic Cox® Technic.  About Dr. Baroody Dr. Steven Baroody is a 2004 graduate of New York Chiropractic College in Seneca Falls, NY. A martial artist for more than thirty years, he was introduced to chiropractic when he injured his lower back being thrown. The quick recovery that followed, and the opportunity to help others convinced him that chiropractic was the career for him. Halfway through his education, however, Dr. Baroody sustained a shoulder injury serious enough to require surgery. After the surgery, however, Active Release Techniques® (ART®) accelerated his rehabilitation and enabled him to return to both chiropractic and the high level of martial arts he had enjoyed before the injury. Having been through the pain of a chronic injury, and the long search for someone who could help him, Dr. Baroody became very well-versed in the diagnosis and treatment of shoulder injuries and pursued full certification in ART® to allow him to provide the same quality of care that he had received. He is currently the only Active Release Techniques® (ART®) Certified Provider in New Hampshire.

What is ethical seafood, and why does it matter if fish can suffer in the systems designed to feed the world? As seafood consumption rises globally, most people never see what happens on fish farms or how ethical decisions are made behind closed doors. This episode asks a simple but uncomfortable question: if fish feel pain and stress, what responsibility do we have when we farm and eat them? Fish welfare in aquaculture is rarely discussed in public, yet it affects hundreds of millions of animals every year. In this conversation, we unpack how fish are raised, handled, and harvested, why welfare is often overlooked, and how improving conditions can actually benefit farmers, ecosystems, and consumers at the same time. You will learn how science is being used to measure fish stress, what ethical treatment really looks like in practice, and why welfare is not just an animal rights issue but a sustainability issue. Ethical seafood choices can feel overwhelming, especially when labels, certifications, and marketing claims all compete for attention. One of the most surprising insights from this episode is that small, practical changes in fish handling can dramatically reduce suffering without increasing costs, and in some cases even improve productivity. This challenges the idea that ethics and food production are always in conflict.

A psychiatrist who treated the Westfield Bondi Junction attacker has been referred for review by the coroner investigating the mass killing in 2024. New South Wales State Coroner Teresa O'Sullivan criticised the care of Joel Cauchi's former psychiatrist for failing to adequately respond to a schizophrenia relapse in the years before the mass stabbing, which saw six people killed and 10 injured. She has made 23 recommendations, including a call for the Health Ombudsman of Queensland to review the psychiatrist's care and treatment of Joel Cauchi. - सिड्नीको बोन्डाइस्थित वेस्टफिल्डमा सन् २०२४ मा ६ जनाको मृत्यु हुने गरी भएको सामूहिक हत्याको छानबिन गरिरहेकी कोरोनरले घटनामा संलग्न भनिएका आक्रमणकारीको उपचार गर्ने मनोचिकित्सकले आफ्नो जिम्मेवारी ठिक सँग पुरा गरे नगरेको बारेमा समीक्षाका लागि सिफारिस गरेकी छन् । यद्यपि कोरोनरले उक्त घटनाका पछाडि मनोचिकित्सकको मात्र दोष नरहेको भन्दै २३ सिफारिस पनि दिएकी छन्। एक रिपोर्ट।

What happens to leadership when creativity is treated as a liability, healing as a weakness, and humanity as a threat to authority? Description  Modern leadership prizes control, composure, and performance. But beneath that polished surface, something is quietly fracturing. . In this deeply human and unflinching conversation, Dov Baron sits down with Tania de Jong to explore why these are not personal failures, but signals of nervous systems and cultures that have lost coherence. . Tania's work sits at the intersection of creativity, leadership, mental health, and consciousness. Through her lived experience as a performer, entrepreneur, and social innovator, she challenges the belief that leadership begins in strategy and cognition. Instead, she reveals why leadership begins in the body, the voice, and the capacity to feel without shutting down. . This episode explores how suppressed creativity and silenced voice distort power, how control often emerges as a trauma response, and why shared resonance, music, storytelling, and even psychedelic-assisted therapies are re-entering serious conversations about healing and leadership, not as fringe ideas, but as necessities. . This is not a conversation about trends or inspiration. It's a conversation about what leadership costs when we refuse to feel.

Osteosarcoma Webinar Series: David Ulmert, MD, PhD, an Associate Professor at UCLA, discusses his OutSmarting Osteosarcoma funded work (Because of Sydney) on high-throughput characterization of pathobiological responses in osteosarcoma tumors treated with LRRC15-targeted radiotherapy to uncover curative co-treatment approaches.Dr. Ulmert will discuss his lab's work investigating how osteosarcoma responds to LRRC15-targeted radiotherapy, with patient translation anticipated this year. Using high-throughput technologies, the team will identify biomarkers, predictive models, and key transcriptional regulators driving the TGFβ–LRRC15 axis. He will review how radiopathobiological changes and immune reprogramming are being mapped to uncover druggable events and inform co-treatment strategies, accelerating near-term impact on patient studies and next-generation therapeutic development.Dr. David Ulmert is an expert in oncology and biotechnology, specializing in cancer biomarkers and targeted therapies. His research focuses on antigens secreted by luminal tissues as novel cancer-specific targets and circulating biomarkers. He developed high-affinity antibodies against androgen receptor-regulated enzymes hK2 and PSA, now in clinical trials across the US, Europe, and Australia—in collaboration with Janssen—for radioimmunotheranostics, CAR-T therapy, and bispecific targeting. His lab also developed DUNP19, an LRRC15-targeting antibody licensed to Lantheus, with a Phase 1 trial in osteosarcoma planned for 2025. Dr. Ulmert leads UCLA's Preclinical Theranostics Program and conducts population-based studies on cancer biomarkers and risk factors with international collaborators. He is widely recognized for advancing prostate cancer research and translational immunotheranostics.

In Ask Away #29 of the Everyday Judaism podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe answers a wide range of live and emailed questions on practical halacha, Jewish identity, and intentional living:Seven-grain bread — Still hamotzi (bread) because it is made from the five grains + water with bread-like consistency, texture, and taste—even with added grains/flavors.Pretzel bagels/pretzel buns — Treated as bread (hamotzi) due to consistency; the pretzel topping/flavor doesn't change the halachic status.Matzah — Hamotzi (considered bread, just unleavened); crackers generally fall into mezonot (pas haba b'kisnin/snack category).Matriarchs & grandchildren — No specific tradition explains why Sarah, Rivka, and Rachel never saw grandchildren (Isaac married after Sarah's death; Rivka died before grandchildren returned; Rachel died en route to Bethlehem). Leah likely saw at least Asenat (Dina's daughter). Rabbi emphasizes the privilege of seeing grandchildren/great-grandchildren today and grandparents' responsibility to influence positively without overstepping (e.g., no interference in naming).Naming customs — Parents alone decide children's names (no parental/grandparental veto); alleged Midrash says parents receive prophetic guidance at birth/bris. Adding a second name (e.g., after a deceased relative) is common when appropriate.God/Hashem in English — Many poskim consider “God” (G-O-D) equivalent to writing/saying Hashem's name in English—avoid casual use (“oh my God”); say “Hashem,” “Almighty,” or “Creator” instead. In blessings (e.g., Amidah in English), use “Hashem” with same kavana (focus/intent) as Ado-nai.Public Hamotzi & children — Educational (teaches brachot), but ideally includes hand-washing and actual bread-eating; without these, it's not proper netilat yadayim/hamotzi.Gluten-free bread — If made from five grains + water and bread-like, hamotzi; pure potato starch “bread” is not hamotzi (mezonot or shehakol depending on form).The rabbi stresses halachic precision (e.g., bread vs. snack distinctions), gratitude for seeing grandchildren, and avoiding casual use of God's name in English.Please submit your questions at askaway@torchweb.org_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #86) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

A JAMA Network Open consensus guide standardizes adult UTI triage for telehealth and in-person care. Nonpregnant women with classic cystitis symptoms and no resistance risks may receive empiric antibiotics without testing; men and higher-risk women require urinalysis with culture before treatment. Urine color or odor alone does not justify testing, and urgent evaluation is advised for suspected complicated infection or sepsis. A Danish registry study in JAMA Internal Medicine found SGLT2 inhibitors offer greater kidney protection than GLP-1 receptor agonists in type 2 diabetes. Long-term ASPREE follow-up in JAMA Oncology showed low-dose aspirin did not lower cancer incidence and increased cancer-related mortality in older adults.

Sometimes a story comes along that challenges my perspectives at a core level. As a father, I took great responsibility in instilling self-worth into my children. And, I still had kids who struggled with their self-worth. I feel our culture as a whole is more insecure than ever. My guest in this episode is Peter Mutabazi, and he found his self-worth after a childhood that gave him zero access to any concept of it. Peter was born out in the boonies of Uganda in what can hardly be described as a home. He was routinely beaten by his father and treated like a stray dog. Or worse. Treated like trash. He ran away at age 10 for fear his father would finally kill him. He made it to the city of Kampala where he lived on the streets and slept in the sewers. Literally. It was so disgusting in the sewers nobody would venture there, which meant it was the only place he could find safety. He lived as a street kid where he only ate every few days, he never slept in a bed, rode in a car, or had shoes. But at age 15, someone befriended him and gave him a chance. Today he lives in America where he fosters and adopts children and runs an organization he founded called, Nowiamknownfoundation.org where his goal is to encourage and affirm marginalized and abandoned children. He wrote a book titled, Now I Am Known:  How a Street Kid Turned Foster Dad Found Acceptance and True Worth. My focus was on how Peter could come from such dramatic abuse, abject poverty, and zero exposure to any nurturing or support, and not only find his self-worth, but then serve others in finding their self-worth. And be at peace with this world that he found so much pain from for the first 15 years of his existence. What could we learn and apply to ourselves?

Clutter, Cortisol & Hormone Chaos: How Your Home Is Draining Your Energy Fatigue, brain fog, low energy, weight loss resistance, and even IBS can sometimes start in a place most women never think to look: the clutter on the floor and the piles on the counter. Have you ever walked into a messy room, felt your stress spike, and suddenly had zero energy left for your family, your health, or yourself? In this episode, I sit down with decluttering and home-management expert Katy Wells to unpack the surprising connection between clutter, cortisol, hormone balance, metabolism, gut health, and sleep. We talk about why traditional decluttering checklists don't work for busy women, how your "stuff story" gets wired into your nervous system, and what clutter is really doing to your stress hormones behind the scenes. If you're working on hormone balance, digestive health, perimenopause symptoms, or stubborn weight loss and still feel stuck, this conversation gives you a fresh angle: change your environment to support your biology. Key Points from This Episode The clutter–cortisol connection How a messy, visually chaotic home keeps cortisol elevated all day and can worsen fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, metabolism, and gut health—especially in perimenopause and menopause. The four types of clutter (and why checklists fail) Katy breaks down superficial, scarcity, sentimental, and identity clutter—and why each one needs a different approach if you actually want lasting change. Your "stuff story" and stress How family patterns, money fears, and past experiences shape the way you hold onto things—and quietly keep your nervous system on high alert, affecting energy, digestive health, and weight loss resistance. Why your bedroom and kitchen matter most The research-backed reasons clutter in your bedroom can sabotage sleep and why a chaotic kitchen can lead to overeating, sugar cravings, and a sluggish metabolism. This episode is for you if you're doing "all the right things" for hormone balance, gut health, metabolism, and energy, but your home feels overwhelming and you can't figure out why you're still so wired, tired, bloated, or stuck with weight loss resistance. You'll hear what clutter really represents, why it has such a powerful impact on cortisol, digestion, and hormone balance—and how changing your physical space can create the foundation for better sleep, calmer moods, fewer IBS flares, and more stable energy throughout the day. The step-by-step "how" to start shifting your space (and your stress response) is all inside the episode—so hit play and see how clearing your home can support your brain fog, fatigue, perimenopause, digestive health, and overall metabolism from the inside out.

Joe Giglio revisits how the Eagles' fan base actually treated Kevin Patullo during his time in Philadelphia, pushing back on the idea that fans “ran him out of town.” On the WIP Midday Show, Joe questions whether Patullo's experience is now being unfairly used in the national narrative around the Eagles' stalled offensive coordinator search—and why blaming Philly fans feels like a lazy excuse that misses the real issues.

Listen without ads on www.patreon.com/dopeypodcastThis week on the total replay - Chris tells the depths of his SMI - maybe the first time we discussed SMI - and Chris' reluctance to accepting the SMI mantle. This is what he wrote 10 years ago: 'Chris intentionally flips out in the psych ward to get put into a 5 point restraint... and receive an injection of Ativan and Haldol. Also, he is treated by Bob Forrest and Dr. Drew.' First though Chris makes fun of my fish tank. We had such a good time. I cooked brusell sprouts and so much more! such a good time! We miss and love you Chris!  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
