This is a technology that was developed in America 140 years ago, refined by a small group of teachers most people have never heard of, practiced professionally by licensed men and women who charged money for it, and then almost completely forgotten. It is called treatment, and every affirmation circulating on the internet descends from it. Every abundance meditation borrows its grammar. The entire modern manifestation world stands on a foundation this word describes, and almost nobody teaches the original discipline anymore. ⠀ Here is why the difference matters. An affirmation has no ending. You repeat it and repeat it and there arrives no moment where the work concludes. A treatment finishes. Completion is built into the architecture, and that single structural feature solves the problem I spent years failing to solve on my own. In this deep dive I walk you through everything. The origin. Ernest Holmes and Raymond Charles Barker. The five movements — recognition, unification, realization, thanksgiving, release. The four instruments people confuse with each other. The five errors that stop treatments from taking hold. And the four rules for writing your own. Then in the second half of the episode I read ten new treatments aloud that I wrote for you. Money, receiving, the body, right work, love, guidance, protection, hard seasons, the self you are becoming, and someone you love. Speak them with me and hold onto them for the rest of your life.

HEALTH NEWS Turmeric Extract CLE Improves Orientation and Attention in Middle-Aged Adults, Study Finds Healthy midlife habits linked to longer dementia-free years Industrial Chicken Farming Is Supercharging the Spread of a Dangerous Foodborne Bacterium How folic acid may protect a baby's developing brain and spinal cord Study: Exercise Prompts Liver Enzyme That May Protect Brain Barrier Turmeric Extract CLE Improves Orientation and Attention in Middle-Aged Adults, Study Finds August 10 2026 (Natural News) A 24-week clinical trial published in Frontiers in Nutrition has found that a non-curcumin turmeric extract known as CLE (curcuma longa extract) improved two cognitive functions – orientation and attention – in healthy adults aged 40 to 69. The study tested 35 cognitive measures and reported statistically significant improvements on only two: awareness of time, place and surroundings (orientation) and the ability to focus and ignore distractions (attention). Alzheimer's disease affects about 5.3 million Americans, making it the leading cause of dementia and the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S. The CLE extract tested in this trial contains different compounds – turmeronols A and B and bisacurone – which have shown anti-inflammatory effects in laboratory models. The trial enrolled 40 participants with subtle cognitive changes still considered within the normal range. They were randomly assigned to take either two CLE capsules daily or a placebo for 24 weeks. Cognitive assessments were administered at baseline, at 12 weeks, and at 24 weeks using standard screening tools and an eye-tracking platform. After six months, participants in the CLE group scored higher on orientation compared with the placebo group, according to both an eye-tracking cognitive test and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment – Japanese version (MoCA-J). The CLE group also demonstrated better attention – the ability to focus and ignore distractions – based on the eye-tracking assessment. Healthy midlife habits linked to longer dementia-free years New York University Langone Health, August 6 2026 (News-Medical) Having normal blood pressure, no diabetes, and not smoking from age 48 to 68, are associated with nearly 13 additional years on average of dementia-free life, a new study shows. Led by NYU Langone Health researchers, the new work also found that, no matter how many risk factors they had, women lived longer without dementia than men, and that white study participants had more dementia-free years than Black participants. The findings argue that people need to actively avert these factors in midlife as a strategy for preserving brain health for more than a decade. The current study looked at 12,409 people with an average age of 56 who were free of dementia. Participants were assessed for three risk factors: high blood pressure, diabetes, and smoking. They were then followed for an average of 26 years. Those who had no risk factors lived without developing dementia nearly 13 years longer than people with the three risk factors (30 years total after the study's start versus 17 years). The team also sought to determine how cardiovascular risk factors in midlife influenced dementia-free survival across demographics. Women with all three risk factors lived an average of 18.1 years from the start of tracking without developing dementia, compared to 16.6 years for male study participants. White participants with all three risk factors lived an average of 19.6 years without developing dementia, compared to 16 years for Black participants. Industrial Chicken Farming Is Supercharging the Spread of a Dangerous Foodborne Bacterium Oxford University, August 10, 2026 (SciTech Daily) Commercial poultry farms now hold billions of chickens, creating a vast habitat where bacteria can move, mix and adapt. An analysis from the Ineos Oxford Institute for Antimicrobial Research at the University of Oxford found that industrial poultry production has increased the movement of Campylobacter more than 100 times, allowing strains once associated with wild birds to circulate widely among farmed chickens. Campylobacter is the world's most common bacterial cause of diarrhea. Treatment is also becoming more difficult as antimicrobial resistance (AMR), the ability of bacteria to withstand drugs intended to kill them, continues to rise. Researchers analyzed nearly 2,800 Campylobacter genomes collected from chickens and wild birds in 30 countries (including the UK and USA) between 1979 and 2024. Their study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), indicates that the global growth of chicken production has given different strains more opportunities to spread, exchange genetic material and acquire traits that support survival. Chickens now represent about 70% of all bird biomass on Earth. The findings suggest that enormous, densely packed flocks may function as ecological ‘pathogen sponges,' taking in bacterial strains from different sources and amplifying them. How folic acid may protect a baby's developing brain and spinal cord Hebrew University of Jerusalem, August 11 2026 (Medical Xpress) For more than 30 years, one piece of pregnancy advice has been remarkably consistent: Take folic acid. The reason is clear. Folic acid, or vitamin B9, can lower the risk of neural tube defects, serious birth defects that happen when the early structure that becomes the brain and spinal cord does not close properly. What has been much less clear is how folic acid works. Now, researchers may have found an important part of the answer. In a new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, scientists discovered that folic acid appears to rely on an enzyme called ALDH1L1. That enzyme helps produce retinoic acid, a powerful developmental signal made from vitamin A. Scientists have long known that folic acid can help prevent many of these defects. But the vitamin seems to be doing more than simply supplying nutrients. The new research suggests that folic acid helps switch on ALDH1L1, a gene that makes the ALDH1L1 enzyme. That enzyme can then help turn a vitamin A-related molecule called retinaldehyde into retinoic acid. Retinoic acid acts like a set of instructions, telling developing cells when to grow, what to become, where to go and when to stop dividing. Study: Exercise Prompts Liver Enzyme That May Protect Brain Barrier University of California at San Francisco, August 10 2026 (Natural News) Researchers at the UC San Francisco Bakar Aging Research Institute have found that exercise prompts the liver to release an enzyme that travels through the bloodstream to the brain and repairs the blood-brain barrier, according to a study published in the journal Cell. The enzyme, called GPLD1, removes a protein called TNAP that accumulates on blood-brain barrier cells over time, the report stated. The findings describe a direct liver-to-brain pathway that partly explains how physical activity protects the brain. The study identified TNAP as a protein that builds up on blood-brain barrier cells over time, according to the researchers. GPLD1 acts to remove TNAP, restoring the barrier's ability to admit nutrients and oxygen while blocking toxins, pathogens, and inflammatory molecules. The findings suggest that consistent, moderate exercise may trigger GPLD1 release, according to the report. Activities such as walking, cycling, and yoga may support cognitive health through this liver-brain connection, the researchers said.       Discussion about this episode

Asthma is often treated like a lung problem. The tighter the chest, the more inflamed the airway, the worse the flare-up, the answer has usually been to reach for medications designed to calm the lungs directly.But what if, for some patients, the real driver is not only in the lungs at all?For years, clinicians have recognized that patients with both obesity and asthma often experience a more difficult form of the disease. Their symptoms are more severe. Their flare-ups are more frequent. Their quality of life is lower. And frustratingly, many do not respond as well to the standard asthma therapies we rely on, including inhaled steroids.That is because obesity-related asthma is not simply “asthma plus extra weight.” It appears to be a distinct phenotype shaped by metabolic dysfunction, systemic inflammation, insulin resistance, immune reprogramming, and the mechanical effects of excess weight on lung function. In other words, for many patients, asthma may not be just a disease of the airways. It may be a whole-body inflammatory condition showing up in the lungs.That shift in thinking is why the growing research around GLP-1 receptor agonists is so compelling. These medications, originally developed for type 2 diabetes and now widely known for their role in weight management, may be doing far more than changing blood sugar or body weight. Emerging research suggests they may influence airway inflammation, immune signaling, airway smooth muscle function, and asthma exacerbation risk, sometimes even before major weight loss occurs.To explore what this could mean for the future of asthma care, Dr. Atoosa Kourosh, a board-certified allergist, immunologist, and pediatrician with more than two decades of clinical experience, returns to the show.She is the founder of Holistic Allergy and Immunology and chair of the Integrative Medicine Committee at the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology, where she brings together conventional medicine, lifestyle medicine, metabolic health, and integrative care.Together, we explore:Why obesity-related asthma is not just “regular asthma in a heavier body,” but a distinct phenotype with different biology, different inflammation, and often a different response to treatmentHow metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance, adipokines, immune reprogramming, and systemic inflammation can all shape what happens in the lungsWhy standard asthma therapies may miss the mark for patients whose disease is driven less by classic allergic inflammation and more by metabolic inflammationWhat emerging research suggests about GLP-1 receptor agonists and their potential effects on airway inflammation, airway smooth muscle, bronchodilation, and asthma exacerbationsWhy some patients may see asthma improvement before significant weight loss, suggesting these medications may be acting on more than the scaleWhat real-world data can and cannot tell us about GLP-1 medications, asthma attacks, and patients with both asthma and type 2 diabetesWhy randomized controlled trials are still needed before GLP-1s can be considered a definitive asthma treatmentWhat clinicians and families should consider before using GLP-1 medications in adolescents, including growth, muscle loss, bone health, mental health, activity levels, and the need for careful testing and monitoringWhy these medications should be viewed as one tool in a broader lifestyle and integrative medicine toolkit, not a quick fix or a substitute for nutrition, movement, sleep, stress regulation, and anti-inflammatory livingHow this research could change the way we classify asthma in the future, moving from a lung-only model to a more metabolic, systems-based model of chronic inflammatory diseaseIf you are a clinician treating difficult-to-control asthma, a patient living with asthma and metabolic dysfunction, or someone trying to understand why chronic disease rarely fits into one neat category, this conversation will challenge you to look beyond the lungs and consider the whole body story.About the GuestDr. Atoosa Kourosh, MD, MPH, RYT, is a physician, board-certified in pediatrics, Allergy & immunology, and public health.

Why do bad things happen to good people? Why can we do all the “right” things and still not get the result we expected? In today's episode, Michelle explores our assumptions about fairness, cause and effect, and the judgments we make about what we believe should or should not be happening in our lives.Sometimes there are causes influencing our circumstancesthat we simply cannot see or understand yet. We may try harder, change direction, take control, or decide something is unfair when perhaps there is a much bigger picture unfolding. Michelle invites us to consider that each person is on their own unique journey, learning different lessons and experiencing life from a perspective we may never fully understand. Instead of immediately judging an experience as unfair, what might happen if we became curious aboutwhat else could be happening beneath the surface? Perhaps something we currently see as unfair may eventually reveal itself as an important part of our growth, purpose, or highest good.Questions or comments? I'd love to hear from you!

Chuck Todd unpacks David Crowley's astonishing photo-finish win over Francesca Hong in Wisconsin — a race Crowley dropped out of, re-entered with Tony Evers' backing, and then won by roughly 3,200 votes — and argues national Democrats are far more relieved than they'll ever admit. Had Hong won, she'd have become a face of the party while being forced to spend the fall answering for past statements about defunding police, abolishing prisons, and canceling Thanksgiving rather than talking about the economy, handing Republicans an absurdly easy story to tell. Chuck credits Tony Evers for refusing to fence-sit and mounting what amounted to an emergency rescue operation, while noting Crowley isn't remotely "establishment" — he came from genuinely modest roots and ran a campaign largely defined by what he wasn't. Chuck identifies Hong's central unforced error as nationalizing her race in the closing weeks, a fundraising-driven instinct in an era where media appearances increasingly function as fundraising appeals, forgetting that the national online audience and the local electorate are not the same people. Mamdani stayed disciplined and won; Hong drifted into boutique cultural debates and lost. But Chuck cautions against reading this as a repudiation of the left: Peggy Flanagan won in Minnesota, progressives are doing better this cycle than they have in years, and the 2027 House will be younger and slightly further left. The real structural lesson is that progressives struggle in higher-turnout and open primaries, still face a persistent obstacle with African American primary voters, and — most tellingly — keep getting rejected by the working-class voters they orient their entire message toward, which is more than a messaging glitch. Abdul El-Sayed emerges a quiet winner here, now much harder to lump in with the DSA, and Chuck notes that neither AOC nor Bernie ever endorsed Hong. The rest of the monologue is a run of results that keep pointing the same direction. Trump-endorsed candidates keep losing primaries: Mike Lindell was trounced in Minnesota, Darline Graham didn't clear a third of the vote and is no lock in her runoff, and Chuck's read is that Trump's grip is measurably slipping. Fourteen-term Congressman John Larson lost his primary, part of the highest incumbent-loss rate since 1970 — in a genuine wave, Chuck says, the House could see north of 25% turnover. On Iran, he echoes Chris Christie's warning that this war turns Trump into Jimmy Carter: Iran has issued a list of demands that amounts to an "F you" ransom note, is openly watching the American election calendar and timing its moves accordingly, and — just as in 1980 — the humiliation itself is the point. All of it, Chuck notes, was Trump's own choice. He closes somewhere unexpected: giving Mark Zuckerberg genuine credit. In his 6,500-word manifesto, Zuckerberg argued that the real danger of AI is the concentration of power, writing that hoping an absolute power will benevolently provide for humanity has historically never ended well — and committing Meta to a review process before models go public. Chuck notes the argument is being made by a deeply self-interested party and that the important parts got buried in what was really a debate with Sam Altman, but he singles out one thing worth emulating: Meta funneling data center tax revenue back into teacher bonuses and job training. Communities hosting this infrastructure have to win too, and he hopes more tech CEOs adopt that philosophy. Finally, Chuck reveals his ToddCast Top 5 list of biggest non-presidential primary upsets, which David Crowley’s win taking the top spot. He also answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and weighs in on the highly suspicious sale of the Los Angeles Lakers to Jared Kushner’s brother.

Addiction affects millions of people, yet stigma and misunderstanding often prevent people from seeking help. In this episode of Health Matters, host Courtney Allison speaks with Dr. Jonathan Avery, an addiction psychiatrist at NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine, about the realities of addiction and recovery. Dr. Avery explains that addiction is more than a problem of willpower. Drawing on research and clinical experience, he discusses how genetics, mental health, trauma, social factors, and brain chemistry all play a role in the development of substance use disorders and behavioral addictions. The conversation examines how addictive behaviors, from alcohol use and opioid dependence to gambling and social media use, affect the brain's reward system and why quitting can be so difficult. Dr. Avery also shares how newer treatments, including medications and emerging research on GLP-1 medications, are changing the landscape of addiction care. Finally, Dr. Avery discusses the importance of reducing stigma, building supportive communities, and recognizing that recovery is possible. He offers practical advice for people who may be struggling themselves as well as guidance for supporting loved ones with compassion and understanding. Chapters 00:00 – What Is Addiction? Why addiction is more than a substance, the role of trauma and mental health, and what happens in the brain 05:05 – Gambling, Screens, and Modern Addictions How behavioral addictions affect the brain and why smartphones have changed the landscape 09:00 – Treatment, Recovery, and New Hope Available therapies, medications, emerging GLP-1 research, and why most people do get better 11:30 – Breaking Stigma and Supporting Recovery Why connection matters, how addiction overlaps with mental health, and ways to support loved ones Key Topics Covered Addiction Recovery Substance use disorders Alcohol use disorder Opioid addiction Fentanyl epidemic Behavioral addictions Gambling addiction Social media addiction Gaming addiction Nicotine and vaping Dopamine and reward pathways Withdrawal Mental health and addiction Trauma and addiction Addiction stigma Recovery support Community and connection Addiction treatment Medication-assisted treatment GLP-1 medications Self-medication hypothesis Depression and addiction Anxiety and addiction Addiction psychiatry Key Takeaway Addiction is a complex health condition influenced by brain biology, mental health, life experiences, and environment, not simply a lack of willpower. While quitting can be challenging, effective treatments, supportive communities, and growing understanding of addiction are helping more people achieve lasting recovery. Reaching out for help is often the first and most important step.   Bio: Jonathan Avery, M.D., is an addiction psychiatrist at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center and vice chair of addiction psychiatry, a professor of clinical psychiatry, and the Stephen P. Tobin and Dr. Arnold M. Cooper Professor in Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medicine. He is the program director for the addiction psychiatry fellowship at NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine. He also serves as the medical director of the NBA's Anti-Drug Program. Dr. Avery graduated from the New York University School of Medicine and completed his psychiatry residency at New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center. During residency, he was selected as a Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry Fellow, served as co-chief resident in his final year, and received several awards for his clinical and academic work. He then completed a fellowship in addiction psychiatry at the New York University School of Medicine before joining the faculty at Weill Cornell Medicine. Dr. Avery has published widely in addiction psychiatry, with work spanning clinician attitudes toward patients with addiction, treatment approaches for substance use disorders, and the intersection of mental illness and addiction. He is the founder of the NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine Program for Substance Use and Stigma of Addiction, and his research on stigma has been supported by multiple national grants and awards. He has served on the editorial board for the DSM-5 Clinical Cases book and is the editor and author of more than 10 books, including Co-occurring Mental Illness and Substance Use Disorders: A Guide to Diagnosis and Treatment and The Stigma of Addiction: An Essential Guide. His forthcoming book, Thriving with Addiction: A New Roadmap for Lasting Recovery and Health (Prometheus Books, 2026), explores how recovery can become a pathway to improved brain and physical health. Dr. Avery is also the host of the Thriving with Addiction podcast, where he interviews leading researchers, clinicians, athletes and public figures about addiction, recovery and behavior change. He has received numerous awards for his clinical and academic work, including the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology Faculty Innovation in Education Award and the Outstanding Faculty Member Award from the New York County Psychiatric Society.

A #Research paper recently #Published in Volume 18 of Aging, titled “Slowing intervertebral disc aging in mice through long-term systemic treatment with the senolytic BCL-2/BCL-xL proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) 753b,” examines whether the senolytic PROTAC 753b can slow age-related intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) in mice. Long-term systemic treatment with 753b reduced key features of disc degeneration in 22-month-old male mice, including matrix breakdown, loss of disc aggrecan, age-related structural changes, and inflammatory markers such as IL-6 and TNFα. These benefits, however, were not observed in female mice, highlighting potential sex-based differences in the role of cellular senescence in IDD and the response to senolytic therapies.

Sometimes a partner goes quiet because they're overwhelmed and trying to find their footing in the conversation. Other times, silence is a strategy, a way to make a spouse squirm and bend until the relationship settles back into its old, immature rhythm. There's a real difference between going quiet in conflict and the silent treatment, and knowing which one you're up against changes how you respond.

A diagnosis can feel like a single label, but some conditions reveal a wider terrain — one that spans immune response, cultural rhythm, and slow imbalance over time.In this conversation with Brendan Kelly, we explore long COVID through the lens of classical Chinese medicine, looking at how frameworks like the Shang Han Lun's cold-to-heat progression and the Wen Bing's epidemic theory make sense of a condition with over two hundred possible symptoms. We discuss treatment not as a single formula, but as traditions blended and matched to where a disease has been and where it's heading.We also touch on why epidemics are never purely individual, and how a culture's own excess heat may shape its susceptibility to illness.Listen in for a conversation that brings clinical experience and classical theory to a condition modern medicine still struggles to treat.

In this episode, I'm talking about why orthorexia is one of the most misunderstood eating disorders, how wellness culture can quietly reinforce it, and why the biggest warning sign has very little to do with what's actually on your plate. Because when grabbing pizza with friends feels mentally exhausting, that's worth paying attention to. Quotes "The biggest problem isn't what you're eating. It's what happens when you can't follow the rule." "A life controlled by food rules is still a life controlled by rules." "Perfection can become a shield that keeps you trapped." "Movement can absolutely be good for you. The problem starts when you can't stop. When you can't take a rest day, skip a workout, or change your plans without feeling like everything is falling apart." "You don't have to be physically falling apart for your eating disorder to matter. The amount of mental energy spent calculating, avoiding, planning, and worrying is reason enough to take it seriously." "When everyone around you calls your eating disorder discipline, you're fighting more than the disorder itself. You're also fighting a culture that keeps telling you you're doing everything right." "The question isn't whether movement or certain foods are healthy. The question is whether your relationship with them leaves room for flexibility, rest, and actually living your life." "Perfectionism can feel protective. If you do everything exactly right, maybe no one can criticize you. Maybe no one can decide you're not enough. The problem is that eventually those rules start controlling you." "Sometimes the goal isn't eating a different food. Sometimes the goal is proving to yourself that you can break a rule and still be okay." "If going out for pizza takes more emotional energy than almost anything else in your week, that's worth paying attention to. The problem isn't the pizza. It's what the pizza represents." Frequently Asked Questions What is orthorexia? Orthorexia is an eating disorder that's centered around an unhealthy obsession with eating "healthy" or "clean." The food itself isn't the biggest issue. The problem is when your life becomes controlled by rigid food rules, anxiety around eating, and the fear of doing something "wrong." While orthorexia isn't currently a standalone diagnosis in the DSM-5, it is widely recognized by eating disorder professionals as a very real and serious condition.   How do I know if healthy eating has become an eating disorder? A healthy habit becomes concerning when it no longer feels like a choice. If skipping a workout fills you with guilt, eating at a restaurant causes intense anxiety, or your food rules make it difficult to enjoy everyday life, it may be more than simply wanting to eat well. The biggest sign isn't what you're eating. It's how much control the rules have over you.   What is the difference between orthorexia and anorexia? Both are restrictive eating disorders, but they often focus on different goals. Anorexia is typically driven by weight, body size, or fear of weight gain. Orthorexia focuses on the quality or purity of food and following strict health rules. That said, the two can overlap, and both deserve treatment and support.   Can exercise addiction be part of an eating disorder? Yes. Exercise becomes a concern when it feels impossible to take a day off or change your routine without overwhelming guilt or anxiety. It's less about how often you work out and more about your relationship with movement. If exercise starts controlling your schedule, mood, or decisions, it's worth paying attention to.   Why is orthorexia so difficult to recognize? Orthorexia often looks like healthy living from the outside. People may compliment someone's discipline, dedication, or healthy lifestyle without realizing those behaviors are driven by fear and rigid rules. Because the behaviors are frequently praised, many people struggle for years before recognizing there's a problem.   Can you recover from orthorexia? Yes. Recovery is possible. Treatment often includes creating more structure around eating, gradually challenging rigid food rules, and exploring the deeper patterns that keep those rules in place. The goal isn't to stop caring about your health. It's to build a relationship with food and movement that includes flexibility instead of fear.   Do you have to be underweight to have an eating disorder? No. People of every body size can have an eating disorder. You don't have to look sick for your struggle to be real. If food, exercise, or body image are taking over your thoughts, relationships, or daily life, you deserve support regardless of your weight. Resources Be sure to sign up for my weekly newsletter!

The new clinical guidelines for juvenile and adult axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), developed collaboratively by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR), the Spondylitis Association of America (SAA), and the Spondyloarthritis Research and Treatment Network (SPARTAN), mark an important evolution in the management of this complex disease. In this episode, Drs. Liron Caplan and Matthew Stoll discuss what's changed, why it matters, and how these recommendations can guide everyday clinical practice—from the first-ever juvenile axSpA guideline and the unified approach to radiographic and non-radiographic disease, to practical decisions around MRI use, first-line therapies, biologic selection, treatment failure, and physical activity.  2026 Update of the American College of Rheumatology/Spondylitis Association of America/Spondyloarthritis Research and Treatment Network Recommendations for the Treatment of Axial Spondyloarthritis in Adults and Children/Adolescents

In Part 2 of my conversation with Mara and David Langer, we continue their story by talking about what it really takes to navigate breast cancer treatment, and what happens when treatment ends.Mara shares practical advice from her own experience with chemotherapy, including the fear of that first treatment and the extraordinary experience of receiving chemotherapy while pregnant. David offers his perspective as a partner and caregiver, including the importance of communication, staying present, asking for help, and remembering that caregivers need support, too.We also talk about knowing your body, understanding your family health history, advocating for yourself, and seeking another opinion when something doesn't feel right.And then we get into something that isn't talked about nearly enough: life after treatment. Mara shares why survivorship can bring its own uncertainty, the importance of resources like Cancer Community Clubhouse, and why there isn't always a return to “normal.” Sometimes it's about learning to live in a new normal, and finding gratitude and presence along the way.Connect with Mara LangerFacebook: facebook.com/mblangerInstagram: instagram.com/mblanger2LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/marablangerResources MentionedCancer Community Clubhouse — A Northern Nevada cancer survivorship center offering support, connection, education, and resources for people affected by cancer, including survivors, care partners, and loved ones.

What should you do when your treatment isn't working—or you're actually getting worse?In this Rheumatology 101 episode, Dr. Isabelle Amigues shares an important lesson from her clinical practice: when a treatment isn't working the way it should, sometimes the answer isn't simply increasing the medication. It's time to pause and reconsider what is really going on.Steroids such as prednisone can work quickly for many inflammatory conditions. But when symptoms don't improve as expected, or worsen despite treatment, that can be an important signal to stop and reassess.Dr. Isabelle explains why rheumatologists may need to consider whether:• The original diagnosis is correct • Another rheumatologic condition could be causing the symptoms • More than one condition is present • An infection could be contributing to symptoms • Another medical specialty should be involved • Increasing immunosuppression could potentially cause harmShe also discusses a patient whose symptoms were initially thought to be rheumatoid arthritis but were ultimately found to be related to coccidioidomycosis, a fungal infection—highlighting why doctors need to remain open-minded when a patient's response doesn't match what is expected.Most importantly, Dr. Isabelle shares what patients can ask when their doctor says, "I'm not sure."You deserve an answer, or at least a clear next step.Don't continue down a path that isn't helping you. Pause. Ask questions. Reassess. And make sure you leave with a plan for what comes next.This video is for educational purposes and is not a substitute for individualized medical advice.

Efficacy and safety of pharmacological interventions for the treatment of cocaine use disorder: A systematic review and network meta-analysis Addiction Cocaine use disorder (CUD) is an increasingly widespread concern worldwide. Various pharmacological treatments have been investigated for CUD, but their efficacy remains unclear, and none have been licensed for treatment. This systematic review and network meta-analysis assessed the comparative effectiveness, safety, and acceptability of pharmacological interventions for the treatment of CUD and prevention of relapse. The authors found no convincing evidence for the effectiveness of any pharmacological treatments for cocaine use disorder.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

Send us Fan MailHookworm cases that “just won't clear” are no longer a weird outlier, and that should change how we practice. We sit down with parasitology expert Dr. Ray Kaplan to unpack the American Association of Veterinary Parasitologists (AAVP) Hookworm Task Force recommendations on diagnosing and treating multidrug-resistant canine hookworms, including what clinics can do right now to stop guessing and start confirming. We talk through how this problem came to light, why drug-resistant hookworms likely gained traction in greyhound breeding and racing environments, and why it's now a pet dog problem across breeds and regions. We also zoom out to the biology that makes Ancylostoma caninum such a persistent threat, from multiple routes of infection to the possibility of “larva leak,” and then get practical about what should raise suspicion. From there, we map out a clear diagnostic path. We discuss the value of a two-week post-treatment fecal recheck, how to use a fecal egg count reduction test to quantify efficacy, and what “good” reduction should look like. We cover the task force approach to treatment and testing across the three drug classes (topical moxidectin, pyrantel, and benzimidazoles like fenbendazole or febantel), the limits of current PCR testing, and when extra-label emodepside enters the conversation with important safety precautions. If you want a grounded, clinic-ready framework that also addresses environmental contamination and zoonotic risk, this one's for you. Subscribe for more evidence-driven veterinary conversations, share this with a colleague who's seeing chronic hookworm cases, and leave us a rating and review to help more listeners find the show.JAVMA article: https://doi.org/10.2460/javma.26.02.0094INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ®  OR AJVR ® ?JAVMA ® : https://avma.org/JAVMAAuthorsAJVR ® : https://avma.org/AJVRAuthorsFOLLOW US:JAVMA ® :Facebook: Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association - JAVMA | FacebookInstagram: JAVMA (@avma_javma) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: JAVMA (@AVMAJAVMA) / Twitter AJVR ® : Facebook: American Journal of Veterinary Research - AJVR | FacebookInstagram: AJVR (@ajvroa) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: AJVR (@AJVROA) / TwitterJAVMA ®  and AJVR ®  LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/avma-journals

Researchers at the University of Auckland are developing an obesity treatment designed to help people lose weight without suppressing appetite. Unlike other treatments such as Wegovy and Mounjaro, this would would target the body's fat-storage process and burn it in a different way. Auckland University Molecular Medicine and Pathology professor Peter Shepherd says this treatment will burn off fat faster and reduce it before it has time to 'settle in'. "Basically, what we've done is found the hormone that controls that process and we've found a way to block that with a little chemical - a little drug that you can take orally."

In The Londinium Chronicles, Gaius (John Batchelor) and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) explore the intersections of Roman history and modern geopolitics. and Germanicus: In their expanding Londinium wine bar, the hosts discuss the unraveling of Ukraine. Germanicus describes a strategic bane where Russia utilizes siege tactics to destroy the Ukrainian economy, targeting water treatment plants and fuel hubs. The depletion of US interceptors represents a ballistic bane, allowing missiles to strike with impunity. Germanicus dismisses the new US nuclear strategy as hysteria born from a weak position. (1)

In this episode, host Duane Osterlind sits down with David Sichel —entrepreneur, founder of Blue Shirt Media, and creator of Sober Transport. David shares his personal journey through addiction, multiple relapses, and long-term recovery, alongside how those experiences led him to innovate within the treatment ecosystem. The conversation explores how AI voice agents and text-based re-engagement tools can support overworked admission departments, capture lost leads, and ensure vulnerable individuals get immediate help during critical moments of sanity.Key Discussion Highlights1. David Sichel's Recovery StoryEarly Sobriety & Relapse: David first got clean at age 16 and maintained 17 years of continuous sobriety before relapsing after convincing himself he could smoke marijuana. After getting clean a second time for five years, he experienced a similar relapse.Achieving Long-Term Recovery: David entered treatment for a third time over 12.5 years ago (February 17). He emphasizes the importance of staying humble, attending meetings, and engaging in service work rather than relying on past accomplishments.Navigating Mental & Physical Health: David discusses his gastric bypass surgery (losing 145 lbs), surviving a severe bout of depression at 10 years sober through medication and a strong support network, and recent heart surgery (pacemaker placement).Giving Back: David hosts a long-standing home group celebrating 12 years and carries recovery meetings into local prisons weekly.2. The Evolution of "Sober Transport"Identifying the Need: While driving Uber in early recovery, David noticed high individuals taking rides to rehab facilities, sparking the idea for a safe, empathetic transit option.Building the Business: David became a certified recovery specialist and interventionist, launching a personalized transport service accompanied by his dog to build rapport with clients. He safely escorted individuals across the country into care until operations paused during COVID-19.3. Modernizing Treatment Admissions with AI Voice SolutionsThe After-Hours Problem: Unanswered calls or automated voicemails at 2 AM leave vulnerable people without immediate support, often resulting in lost opportunities for care.Empathetic AI Intake: David developed an AI intake assistant tailored specifically for treatment centers to answer calls 24/7.Key Features & Workflows:Fully transparent: Discloses to callers that it is an AI assistant.Knowledge Base: Trained on specific treatment center websites and standard intake questions.Live Transfers: Conducts immediate 24/7 transfers for qualified, urgent leads if requested by the facility.CRM Integration: Captures intake data, creates CRM lead records, and sends immediate text follow-ups to the caller.HIPAA Compliant: Fully adheres to healthcare privacy laws and signs Business Associate Agreements (BAAs).4. Re-Engaging Inactive Leads via Automated Text MessagingThe "Inactive File" Problem: Facilities spend upwards of $200 per call through digital advertising, yet many leads go cold after 2–3 follow-up attempts.Meeting People Where They Are: Most individuals under 50 prefer text messages over phone calls from unknown numbers.Automated Text Campaigns: Using AI text automation, treatment centers reach out to inactive leads, alumni, or past inquiries with supportive check-ins ("Hey, just checking in to see how you're doing").Performance: David's text re-engagement case studies demonstrate up to a 22% response rate, qualifying leads before handing them directly back to live admissions representatives via click-to-call.Key Quotes"When you're sitting in the dark and ready for help, a voicemail is dead. We need to meet people where they are, when they're at that moment of sanity."— David Sichel "If you have a chance to do any recovery service work... do it. We need you, because that's where our people are, and we have to meet them where they're at."— David Sichel Guest Advice for Anyone StrugglingIf you or a loved one are in a dark place and struggling with addiction:Reach out immediately.

Day 10 of the Lindsay Clancy trial centered on an intense and at times contentious cross-examination of Dr. Jennifer Tufts, the psychiatrist who treated Lindsay from September 2022 until just before the deaths of Cora, Dawson and Callan. Defense attorney Kevin Reddington challenged Tufts about her experience, Lindsay's medications, the completeness of the medical information available to her, and how she assessed Lindsay's worsening psychiatric symptoms. Tufts acknowledged that she did not have Lindsay's complete medical record while treating her.Reddington's questioning focused heavily on whether warning signs were missed and whether Lindsay's rapidly changing medication regimen could have contributed to her deterioration. The exchanges became tense enough that Judge William Sullivan intervened at points during the questioning, including instructing Tufts to allow Reddington to finish his questions before answering. Prosecutors later worked to provide context for Tufts' treatment decisions and Lindsay's own reports to her providers. Tufts ultimately completed her testimony after spending hours under cross-examination.Join True Crime Squad as we break down the biggest moments from Day 10, Reddington's aggressive cross-examination, Lindsay's psychiatric treatment and medication history, and what Dr. Tufts' testimony could mean when jurors ultimately decide the central issue in this case: Was Lindsay Clancy criminally responsible for killing her three children, or was she suffering from a severe mental illness that prevented her from appreciating the wrongfulness of her actions?

Mary Roach, author of Replaceable You, explores the past, present, and future of reconstructing or replacing human anatomy. Roach details the treatment of severe third-degree burns using allografts from cadavers or unconventional biological dressings like Icelandic cod skin. Advancements in 3D-printing allow researchers to use "ink" made of cells and collagen to create complex structures like heart ventricles and valves. Furthermore, the book examines xenotransplantation, which involves using genetically edited pigs to provide "stop-gap" organs for patients on waiting lists, and the potential for chimeras to grow human-compatible kidneys. Beyond high-tech solutions, Roach highlights the impact of tissue donation, where a single deceased donor can benefit 70 people through gifts of bone, skin, and corneas. Finally, Roach investigates the history of nasal repair and modern plastic surgeons' application of the Fibonacci sequence to achieve mathematical perfection in aesthetic procedures. (1)

Today, we are taking a deep dive into an intervention that almost every labor and delivery unit in North America has adopted over the last decade: Quantitative Blood Loss, or QBL. ACOG first recommended quantitative blood loss assessment in Committee Opinion Number 794, published in December 2019. This opinion recommended that every birthing facility implement a standardized, quantitative method for measuring cumulative blood loss at all deliveries, replacing visual estimation as the default approach. This built on earlier ACOG efforts, including the 2015 reVITALize initiative, which standardized obstetric data definitions and defined postpartum hemorrhage using cumulative measured blood loss thresholds (≥1,000 mL regardless of delivery route, or blood loss accompanied by signs/symptoms of hypovolemia). We've all weighed sponges, measured calibrated drapes, and run the math. But here's the million-dollar question: Does measuring blood loss accurately, on its own, actually improve outcomes for patients? The answer is YES….and NO at the same time. Listen in for details as we discuss new data (July 2026 in AJOG) on this topic. 1. White A, Burns RN, Pruszynski JE, Ravindra D, Fin KX, Montgomery T, Jestes E, Ambia AM, Anyaehie B, Duryea EL.

How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. How does someone keep a good mood after receiving one devastating medical diagnosis after another? Retired California Juvenile Hall Officer Tyrone “Ty” Armstrong Sr. has faced a disabling injury, congestive heart failure, cancer, nightmares, and anxiety, but he refuses to let illness define his life. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. For Tyrone “Ty” Armstrong Sr., the answer is found in purpose, creativity, faith in the future, and a determination to keep contributing, even when his body makes every day more difficult. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio Armstrong is a retired Juvenile Hall Officer from California who was forced to leave his career because of a serious foot injury. Retirement, however, was only the beginning of a series of life-altering health battles. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. He was hospitalized with congestive heart failure. His heart function reportedly dropped to approximately 15 percent. Then doctors discovered myelofibrosis, a rare form of bone marrow cancer. The illnesses changed his physical abilities, interrupted his career, and contributed to nightmares and anxiety. Yet Armstrong continues to search for reasons to smile, create, and connect with other people. His remarkable story is featured on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and other major podcast platforms. Additional content from the interview is shared on Facebook and Instagram. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. He shares the full story as a guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, and other major podcast platforms. The interview is also featured across Facebook and Instagram. The conversation explores the challenges of working inside a Juvenile Hall facility, the health crisis that transformed Armstrong's life, and how he keeps a good mood in spite of severe health problems. The Difficult Work of a Juvenile Hall Officer Most people understand that police officers, corrections officers, and firefighters work in dangerous environments. The challenges faced by Juvenile Hall Officers, however, frequently receive far less public attention. Juvenile detention facilities house young people who may be accused or convicted of serious crimes. Some have histories involving violence, gangs, drugs, unstable homes, neglect, or abuse. Others struggle with mental health conditions, anger, fear, and distrust of authority. Juvenile officers must maintain security while working with young people whose lives may already be moving in a dangerous direction. The job requires vigilance, patience, communication skills, emotional control, and the ability to respond quickly when a situation turns violent. Officers may have to break up fights, enforce rules, identify manipulation, prevent escapes, and protect detainees from one another. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. At the same time, the work is not exclusively about discipline. A Juvenile Hall Officer may also become one of the few stable adults in a young person's life. A firm but respectful conversation can sometimes influence a teenager long after that person leaves custody. Armstrong experienced those competing responsibilities firsthand during his career in California. He understood the importance of safety and authority, but he also recognized that the young people inside the facility were not necessarily beyond hope. His work demanded physical stamina and emotional resilience. When a foot injury forced him into retirement, he lost more than employment. He also lost the routine, responsibilities, professional identity, and sense of purpose connected to his career. The transition would have been difficult under any circumstances. The severe medical problems that followed made it even more challenging. Hospitalized With Congestive Heart Failure Armstrong's life changed dramatically when he developed congestive heart failure and required hospitalization. Congestive heart failure, commonly abbreviated as CHF, is a chronic condition in which the heart cannot pump blood as efficiently as the body needs. When the heart's pumping ability weakens, blood and fluid can back up in the lungs and other tissues. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. Heart failure can have several underlying causes, including coronary artery disease, previous heart attacks, high blood pressure, heart valve disease, cardiomyopathy, diabetes, and obesity. Treatment may include medication, dietary changes, carefully monitored physical activity, implanted medical devices, and frequent evaluation by medical professionals. The treatment plan depends on the individual patient's condition and the cause and severity of the heart failure. For Armstrong, the diagnosis was especially frightening because his heart was reportedly functioning at approximately 15 percent. A number that low can transform even routine activities into exhausting challenges. Walking, climbing stairs, getting dressed, or completing household tasks may require far more effort than before. The person must also live with the knowledge that the heart, an organ that never gets to take a break, is severely weakened. Many people would understandably respond with despair. Not Armstrong. That decision did not erase the seriousness of his illness. It did not mean he ignored fear, anxiety, or physical limitations. Instead, he began searching for a new way to create meaning within the boundaries imposed by his health. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. Another Devastating Diagnosis: Myelofibrosis After experiencing congestive heart failure, Armstrong received another life-changing diagnosis: myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis is a rare form of bone marrow cancer. It disrupts the body's normal production of blood cells and can cause extensive scarring within the bone marrow. The disease may lead to severe fatigue, weakness, anemia, an enlarged spleen, bone pain, abnormal bleeding, and a greater vulnerability to infections. The experience can share certain symptoms or blood-related complications with other serious disorders, although it is a distinct medical condition. For Armstrong, the cancer diagnosis arrived on top of an already dangerous heart condition. He was no longer dealing with one isolated medical problem. He was living with multiple severe health conditions that could affect his strength, energy, mobility, independence, and future. The emotional consequences were significant. Armstrong began experiencing nightmares and anxiety. These symptoms became part of his life alongside the physical illnesses. Serious medical diagnoses can create a persistent sense of uncertainty. A patient may worry about the next test, the next appointment, the next treatment, or an unexpected change in symptoms. Even on relatively good days, the fear of what might happen next can remain in the background. Armstrong acknowledges those struggles. His positive outlook is not based on pretending everything is fine. His story is powerful because his optimism exists alongside pain, fear, and uncertainty. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Problems Armstrong cannot control every aspect of his medical condition, but he can decide where to direct his attention and energy. He keeps moving forward by concentrating on creativity, service, and the possibility of building something valuable for other people. Rather than viewing retirement and illness as the end of his productive life, Armstrong embraced web development. At 64 years old, he began using technology to create a new mission. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. He designed an innovative video vlog intended to provide an all-in-one visual browsing experience. His goal was to create a platform with entertainment, information, and resources for people who prefer learning and engaging through video. For Armstrong, it is evidence that purpose can continue after retirement, disability, and devastating medical diagnoses. It gives him a reason to create, plan, learn, and imagine what the future could become. When serious illness removes a person's former career or physical abilities, developing a new source of purpose can help restore direction. The new mission does not have to resemble the old one. It simply needs to provide a meaningful reason to continue engaging with life. Building Something for Visual Learners Armstrong's vision extends beyond entertainment. He wants his video vlog to become a global resource for visual learners, people who understand and retain information more effectively when it is presented through images, demonstrations, and video. Video can make information more approachable for users who struggle with long written explanations. It can show a process in action, combine audio with visual examples, and give people the ability to pause, replay, and learn at their own pace. Armstrong dreams of collaborating with video creators and content enthusiasts around the world. He wants to expand the platform, reach international audiences, and develop an online community where video education and visual stimulation are easily accessible. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. The diagnosis of myelofibrosis did not destroy that dream. In some ways, it made the mission feel more urgent. Armstrong understands that his health is fragile. Rather than allowing that reality to paralyze him, he uses it as motivation to keep building. His attitude carries an important message: A person does not need perfect health or ideal circumstances to make a difference. Positivity Does Not Mean Denying Reality Stories about resilience can sometimes create the false impression that people should remain cheerful at all times. That is not realistic, especially for someone living with heart failure, cancer, chronic physical limitations, nightmares, and anxiety. Keeping a good mood does not mean Armstrong never has difficult days. It does not mean he is free from fear or frustration. It does not mean that a positive attitude can replace medical treatment. Instead, his outlook appears to be rooted in refusing to surrender his entire identity to illness. He is not only a patient. He is a retired Juvenile Hall Officer, father, web developer, creator, visual thinker, and man with an ambitious idea. His illnesses are part of his story, but they are not the whole story. That distinction can be essential for people facing long-term health problems. Medical appointments naturally focus on symptoms, test results, medications, and treatment plans. While those issues are necessary, patients also need reasons to see themselves as complete human beings with interests, relationships, abilities, and dreams. Armstrong's creative work gives him something to discuss besides illness. It allows him to measure progress through ideas developed and connections made, not only through medical numbers. Nightmares, Anxiety, and the Emotional Toll of Illness Armstrong's physical conditions are only part of the battle. He also lives with nightmares and anxiety that developed during his medical journey. A severe health emergency can leave a lasting psychological impact. Hospitalization, frightening symptoms, loss of independence, and uncertainty about survival may continue to affect a person long after the immediate crisis has passed. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. The show is distributed through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and other podcast platforms. Its interviews are also promoted across Facebook, Instagram, and other social media channels. Nightmares can interrupt restorative sleep. Anxiety can make ordinary sensations feel threatening. A rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, or sudden fatigue may create immediate fear for someone with a serious cardiac condition. Poor sleep and constant worry can also make physical symptoms more difficult to manage. Armstrong's willingness to discuss these struggles is important because many retired officers and first responders hesitate to talk openly about emotional health. Careers built around strength, control, and responsibility can make it difficult to admit fear or ask for help. Lessons From His Career That Still Serve Him Although Armstrong is no longer working inside a Juvenile Hall facility, some of the skills developed during his career remain useful. Juvenile officers learn to remain alert, manage unpredictable situations, communicate with difficult personalities, and maintain control under pressure. They must adapt quickly because the environment can change without warning. Those abilities can also help someone facing severe illness. Medical conditions are unpredictable. Treatment plans change. Energy levels rise and fall. Some days allow for productivity, while other days require rest. Armstrong has learned to work within those changing limits. He cannot always control what happens to his health, but he can control whether he continues searching for meaningful ways to use his time and experience. A Life With Purpose After Retirement Retirement caused by injury can feel very different from a planned retirement. A person may not have time to prepare financially or emotionally. The career can end before the individual is ready to leave, creating a painful loss of identity and direction. Armstrong's transition was followed by congestive heart failure and cancer, making the process even more disruptive. Still, he found a new path through web development. His story illustrates that purpose is not limited to a job title. A career may end, but a person's ability to contribute does not necessarily end with it. Purpose can be rebuilt through creativity, entrepreneurship, mentoring, volunteering, family, advocacy, or community involvement. For Armstrong, it emerged through technology and video. His goal is not simply to pass the time. He wants to create something capable of reaching people around the world. How He Keeps a Good Mood in Spite of Severe Health Challenges: A Retired Juvenile Officer's Inspiring Story. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. That is how he keeps looking ahead. Hear Tyrone Armstrong's Full Story Tyrone “Ty” Armstrong Sr. has experienced a disabling foot injury, medical retirement, congestive heart failure, severely reduced heart function, myelofibrosis, nightmares, and anxiety. Yet he continues to build, dream, and search for ways to help others. His experience offers a powerful answer to the question of how he keeps a good mood in spite of severe health challenges. He does not deny the seriousness of his condition. He chooses not to let the condition take ownership of everything he is. The full interview with the retired California Juvenile Hall Officer is featured on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. Listeners can hear his story on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and other major podcast platforms. Additional interview content and updates are available through Facebook and Instagram. Armstrong's journey is not a simple story about “staying positive.” It is a story about rebuilding purpose after a career-ending injury and continuing to create while living with potentially life-threatening illnesses. His health has changed what he can do. It has not taken away his determination to do something meaningful. For anyone struggling with retirement, disability, cancer, heart disease, anxiety, or an uncertain future, his example carries an important message: Life may change without permission, but purpose can still be created, one idea, one connection, and one day at a time.

Fauci pled the Fifth over 100 times before Congress this week, but the real story isn't his silence, it's the lie underneath it. Masks that didn't work. A lab leak he helped fund. Treatments he let get smeared while people died. Lance breaks down exactly what collapsed a 50-year legacy in one hearing. What was the lie that finally caught up with him? In this episode: * The diary and testimony details behind Fauci pleading the Fifth over 100 times * Why masks, lockdowns, and school closures were pushed even after the science said otherwise * The lab leak connection Fauci had a financial reason to bury * Senator Josh Hawley's blistering takedown, and Senator Fetterman's surprisingly honest reflection on the lab-leak theory * The biblical case: the story of Haman in the book of Esther, a man so consumed with his own image that he built the very gallows he was hanged on * Why confession, not silence, is the only path back, through King David's response to the prophet Nathan and Proverbs 28:13 * What's happening in Illinois school districts and Colorado college campuses while the country is distracted by the Fauci hearing This isn't just a hearing recap.
