In this episode of essential oils for menopause hormones, I asked all the questions you ask. The purpose? To find beyond exercise and food, what can you do with essential oils to support your symptoms or simply elevate your health.  I ask about essential oils for menopause hormones – adrenal fatigue, sleep, libido, cravings and more.  Don't miss this one!    My Guest: Jodi Sternoff Cohen is a bestselling author, award-winning journalist, functional practitioner and founder of Vibrant Blue Oils, where she has combined her training in nutritional therapy and aromatherapy to create unique proprietary blends of organic and wild-crafted essential oils. She has helped over 50,000 clients heal from brain related challenges, including anxiety, insomnia, and autoimmunity.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:08:06] No one is a stranger to essential oils, but can we go back to their origins?  [00:10:00] How can essential oils help a woman in menopause?  [00:16:26] What works for adrenal fatigue? [00:19:33] What if sleep is a problem?  [00:22:00] What if blood sugar and insulin resistance are?  [00:23:07] What if cravings for sweets or caffeine are an issue?  [00:28:16] How can oils help with fascia? [00:33:55] What if the energy to exercise seems to have left the building?  [00:35:07] What if headaches or migraines are a problem?  [00:37:08] What if the va va voom is nowhere to be found?  [00:38:45] Where does a newbie start?  [00:34:28] What are your favorites and why?  [00:39:00] Some are for use topically… Do they all require dilution?    Why Use Essential Oils? A powerful concentrated essence medicine, you only need a small amount. Calms, focuses and regulates moods. Targets nervous system, vagus nerve, and adrenal response. Supports cortisol balance, melatonin production, and more   The Power of Essential Oils for Menopause Hormones   The Power of Touch Skin is our largest organ, open to fat soluble remedies. Applying essential oils on a reflex point is powerful.   The Power of Smell Smell has direct access to the part of your brain known as the amygdala. Signals the brain to process certain emotions, calm the nervous system (anxiety, depression, etc.)   Uses: Adrenal Fatigue Indicators: exhaustion, needing caffeine, brain fog. Helps reset stress signals and regulate cortisol through the nervous system and hypothalamus. Topical application on the lower back in the morning or mid afternoon to give energy. Sleep Regulates the Circadian Rhythm by triggering the pineal gland to naturally release melatonin. Sleep issues: Bedtime - topical application on the top of the head, above the ears or back of the head. Waking up at 1am - smelling oils for pancreas, which releases the hormones to pull the blood sugar out of the bloodstream and into the cells. Waking up at 3am - topical application for liver and gallbladder to help sleep through the night. Cravings (sweets and caffeine) Use adrenal or circulation blends to beat afternoon crashes. Inhale or topical application on the lower back to boost alertness. Mobility Fascia health is hormone-responsive and affects posture and motion. Emotional stress can tighten fascia, impacting mobility. Applying on body part allows more range of motion Headache and Migraine Topical application on the temples and lymph node clusters (neck, base of skull, behind the ears and clavicles) to relieve pressure and move fluid. Libido Adrenal blends applied to the lower back help restore energy and hormonal balance. Parasympathetic blends send safety signals to the nervous system, reducing stress and allowing desire to return. Topical application around the belly button or inner thighs to promote circulation and stimulate libido.   Key Takeaways on Essential Oils for Menopause Hormones Oils work quickly due to their ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and influence the nervous system. Topical and aromatic use of essential oils can support hormone health without relying on supplements or medications. Specific oils target specific problems: Adrenals → Energy, stress, blood sugar regulation Circadian → Sleep onset Pancreas → Night waking Liver/Gallbladder → 3 a.m. wakeups Circulation → Boost alertness & focus Hormonal changes affect fascia, posture, mobility, and emotional resilience. Left-nostril breathing with oils can calm anxiety by balancing brain hemispheres.   Connect with Jodi: Get your Vibrant Blue Oils here: Parasympathetic State Toolkit Instagram - @vibrantblueoils    Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - What Stem Cell Therapy Taught Me About Recovery, Mindset, and Reinventing Downtime Next Episode - Listener Menopause Exercise Question: Are You Exercising Too Much, Too Little, or Just Right?

RATE BUSH! What are your most favorite and least-loved songs on Kate Bush's Hounds of Love? Three months before strange things catapulted Miss Bush into a new generation's consciousness, Sam had us sit down to dissect an album that most purists wouldn't dare break into separate parts. While Adam went overboard (groan) researching the second side's epic Ninth Wave song story, newbies Dan and Jim obliviously took it in like men with children in their eyes...or something. Guest rankers include keyboard guru and Abbey Road expert Brian Kehew (Moog Cookbook, The Who, Prince and more) and San Diego Music Award winner Marie Haddad from the world's greatest coverband, Baby Bushka. Hear it at WeWillRankYouPod.com, Apple, Spotify and your running shoe outlet.  ***This episode was recorded in February of 2022, a few months before Stranger Things made Kate Bush a hero to a whole new generation and eight months before we finally edited and released it.  Three years later, we received notice that we had to remove music from a dozen episodes of ours. Because we're a music podcast, we're allowed to play clips under music criticism laws so they let us keep the episodes intact. We recently noticed that this episode had disappeared though. Can't get a straight answer about why this one wasn't spared so we're re-uploading it without Kate's music. If you want to hear it in all of its original unedited glory, drop us a note on social media and we'll send it to you.  We're not making a dime on this, unless you Venmo us (ahem) at WeWillRankYouPod.

After the critical success of their 2003 sophomore album Waking the Fallen, Orange County's Avenged Sevenfold underwent a period of significant transformation. A new deal with a major label, vocal surgeries, and a bold shift in musical direction all marked a turning point for the band. Never content to repeat themselves, they forged ahead to create the album they had always envisioned—an ambitious, multi-layered, arena-ready release that propelled them to new heights and solidified their place in modern heavy metal.Please join us as we discuss Avenged Sevenfold's breakthrough album, City of Evil!Recommendations:Kontusion - Insatiable Lust For DeathEmma Goldman - all you are is weLaura Stevenson - Late GreatThe World is a Beautiful Place & I am No Longer Afraid to Die - Beware the CentristLa Dispute - No One Was Driving The CarGruesome - Silent EchoesThe Beach Boys - Pet SoundsFollow Riff WorshipInstagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/riffworshippod/⁠⁠Twitter: ⁠⁠https://x.com/RiffWorshipPod⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@RiffWorshipPod⁠⁠Check out our Official Playlists:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Riffs on Repeat (Spotify)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hits from the Crypt (Apple)

In this episode, Joe De Sena sits down with a Marine veteran, Rob Jones, who lost both legs to an IED—but didn't lose his drive, purpose, or grit.   Instead, he came back stronger, running 31 marathons in 31 days, winning a Paralympic medal, and building a powerful life rooted in service, family, and leadership. His story is a masterclass in resilience, perspective, and unstoppable mindset.   If you've ever felt stuck, defeated, or uncertain about your path, this episode will show you what's possible when you choose purpose over pain—and keep showing up, no matter what.   Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:48 Meet Rob Jones 01:11 Life lesson from the Marines 02:36 From selfish college kid to selfless soldier 03:47 Why selflessness matters for success 04:57 Can selflessness be taught in schools? 06:14 Ego, avoidance, and the courage to take responsibility 08:16 The IED that changed Rob's life 09:59 The power of perspective after trauma 11:23 Dark moments: Waking up after the blast 14:15 Projecting a hopeless future vs. choosing to live 15:02 Marathons, medals, and fatherhood 17:32 What's next for Rob 18:51 How do people find Rob 20:23 Final thoughts   Connect to Rob: Website: https://www.robjonesjourney.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robjonesjourney Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/robjonesjourney LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-jones-journey Twitter/X: https://x.com/robjonesjourney

The craziest thing that I've learned over the last year of reading and re-reading aging and longevity books is that much of what we think is natural aging is actually neglect.     My goal in this episode is to reframe what we assume or are told is “natural aging” or “just getting older” and show all the small things that we might be neglecting over time.   This whole concept is so empowering!!  Rather than feeling like we aren't in control of how we age, we realize that we are actually in control of so much of it.    Focusing on all the tiny things we can do daily to keep our strength, flexibility, energy and sharpness over time.    If you don't use it you lose it and that's not the gameplan!!  Let's go!!            Why We Confuse Aging with Neglect Inspiration: Outlive + Good Energy Dr. Peter Attia challenges the idea of “inevitable decline.” He argues we don't die of old age, we die from preventable chronic diseases (heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, frailty, neurodegeneration). Dr. Casey Means says our modern environment is biologically mismatched. Much of what we consider aging—fatigue, brain fog, joint stiffness—is inflammation caused by neglected lifestyle choices like ultra-processed food, lack of movement, and poor sleep. Reframe: What feels like aging might be: Muscle loss from underuse (not just age) Joint stiffness from inactivity, not age Brain fog from poor metabolic health, not "just getting older" Flexibility & Strength—The First to Go (But Totally Reversible) Peter Attia's Point: “Functional Longevity” You don't train to live long—you train to live well long. His "Centenarian Decathlon" concept: What physical feats do you want to do at 80 or 90? Train now for those. Action Steps: Start a Zone 2 cardio routine (walking uphill, light cycling). Great for mitochondria and long-term energy. Add stability and grip strength work—these are major predictors of longevity. Stretch daily or do mobility work 10 minutes/day. Lack of flexibility is not inevitable—it's just unused tissue. Moving your body regularly improves cellular health and lowers inflammation, which protects against many “aging” diseases. Nutrition is the Silent Ager Good Energy: “You are what you metabolize.” Modern food is driving chronic inflammation, which accelerates what we mistake as aging: skin issues, joint pain, fatigue, insulin resistance. Ultra-processed food hijacks energy systems and causes mitochondrial dysfunction. Action Steps: Prioritize whole foods: protein, fiber, omega-3s. Avoid “glucose roller coasters” — balance meals with fat/fiber/protein to avoid energy crashes. Try time-restricted eating: not for weight loss, but to support metabolic flexibility. Attia promotes a low-carb or carb-conscious diet to control insulin and prevent the slow creep of pre-diabetes that goes unnoticed. Sleep & Stress—The Hidden Agers Poor sleep mimics aging in the brain. One bad night of sleep can spike blood glucose and disrupt hunger hormones. Chronic stress leads to cortisol overload—breaking down muscle, weakening immunity, and inflaming joints. Action Steps: Prioritize 7–8 hours of sleep in a dark, cool room. Wind down early with no screens—melatonin is suppressed by blue light. Practice stress recovery: deep breathing, journaling, cold exposure, or sauna. What to Watch for That Looks Like Aging But Isn't These are early signs of neglect that can be reversed: Needing caffeine to function Losing strength when lifting groceries or kids Taking longer to recover after activity Feeling “foggy” or irritable most mornings Waking up feeling stiff every day Attia and the Means both emphasize: These are signals. If you listen to them now, you can slow or even reverse them. Your “Reverse the Neglect” Starter Plan Give listeners a 5-part challenge: Move 30 minutes every day (combine walking + strength 3x/week) Eat one full day of unprocessed meals Cut sugar and seed oils completely  Stretch for 10 minutes in the morning and before bed Walk after meals to stabilize glucose This isn't about avoiding age—it's about owning your energy.  When we treat aging like a slow collapse, we give away our power.  But when we understand the difference between aging and neglect and add and remove habits, we change the game. Our mind and body will thank us now and even more when we're 80 and 90.   CHEERS to taking control of the way you age! 

In this episode, I dove deep into one of the most important conversations I think we've had yet: the silent link between airway health, behavior, and attention struggles in children. We explored the idea that many kids who are labeled with ADHD might actually be suffering from something entirely different—and often overlooked—airway dysfunction. Let me be clear—ADHD is real, but we need to ask better questions. We need to look at why so many kids are dysregulated, tired, chewing their sleeves, struggling to focus, or melting down over the tiniest things. The culprit? Often it's mouth breathing, poor tongue posture, and disrupted sleep, which can mimic or even worsen ADHD symptoms. We talked about how the position of the tongue, sleep quality, and oxygen flow all affect the nervous system, digestion, and brain function. Kids like Luca, who was misdiagnosed and medicated for ADHD, showed remarkable changes once we addressed his airway health. No magic—just science and compassion. I also shared red flags to look for:-Mouth breathing (especially at night)-Snoring, grinding, or night terrors-Waking up tired despite a full night's sleep-Constant chewing (clothes, pencils)-Tiptoe walking-Emotional volatility and quick meltdowns If this sounds like your child—or a child you know—it's not about blame. It's about awareness and action. Labels like ADHD can follow a child for life. But if we shift our lens and ask better questions, we might be able to change the entire trajectory of their future. I also invited listeners to download my 10 Red Flags Checklist, join the Shift Circle, and stay connected via my newsletter. We're building a community where we can talk candidly about what's really going on without being dismissed or gaslit. Book a consultation today:I am always here to help answer any question and schedule a 15 minute call with me.

It Took Cupid's ArmyCan I woo the girl who knows my embarrassing childhood?Based on a post by Mac G. Listen to the podcast at Connected.Even though it is right in front of you, you don't always see what's good for you. Sometimes you need a little nudge. This is about a couple of mine.When I was five, Jenny's family moved in directly across the street from us. Our families became good friends right away. Due to the fact that there was nobody else our age living nearby (Jenny is three months older than I am), we soon became inseparable.She had no trouble keeping up with me in the rough and tumble things I wanted to do, and I had no problems playing house with her when she wanted. One of our parents always had to shoo us home at night because we would never think about it ourselves. I once tried to get my parents to let Jenny spend the night, but they said it was not right for girls to spend the night with boys.Although I missed it at the time, the first indication that Jenny and I would end up together came when we were fourteen. I was over at her house watching TV with her and her dad. As we sat there, the doorbell rang. Jenny got up to answer it. She came back a moment later followed by a policeman."Mr. Adams," he said, "I'm afraid I have some bad news."Jenny's dad got up to stand next to her. I stood a few feet behind them."I'm really sorry to say that there has been an accident. A drunk ran a red light and hit your wife's car," the policeman stated."What! When? Where? How is she?" Mr. Adams asked."The paramedics did their best, but I'm afraid she didn't make it. I am truly sorry."At this point, Jenny turned around and looked at me, tears pouring from her eyes. She ran to me, buried her head in my shoulder and sobbed. I guided her to the couch and sat her down. Holding her gently, I let her cry herself out, trying to soothe her as best as I could.After about fifteen minutes, Mr. Adams finished up with the policeman and came over to sit next to us. Jenny had calmed down a little and was just crying lightly. He took Jenny in his arms and held her. I got up and called my parents telling them what had happened. They both came right over.After a lot of consoling and grief, Dad left with Mr. Adams to tend to the body while Mom stayed with Jenny and I. Mom told me later how proud she was of me and for handling the situation and comforting Jenny so well. Years later, Mr. Adams said he'd kill me if I told Jenny, but that it hurt a little when Jenny turned to me, instead of him, for comfort upon hearing the news about her mom.The First NudgeI have always thought differently about Jenny than anyone else. Even during those awkward adolescent times all boys go through in which girls are gross and have cooties, I never felt that way about Jenny. It was like my mind thought, 'That's not a girl, that's Jenny'. The trouble was that as I grew into a teenager and began to notice girls, it was the same thing; I didn't realize just how beautiful Jenny was becoming.Ironically, it was on a date with someone else in the summer between our Junior and Senior years that her beauty was pointed out to me. We had been having a great time: Dinner, movie, and ice cream afterwards. It was close to time to take my date home."Anne, can I ask you a question?" I asked."Sure, what's up?""Well, when I asked you out, you seemed a little surprised. Pleased, but surprised. I got the same response from Sarah Jansen last month, and I was wondering if it was true you were surprised, and if so, why?"Anne smiled and hesitated a moment before answering."Yes, it's true I was a little surprised and I'm sure Sarah was as well. The reason is we keep expecting you two knuckleheads to wake up and see what a good thing you've got.""Knuckleheads? What two knuckleheads?" I asked."Okay, it looks like it's up to me to straighten you out, although I really shouldn't," she sighed. "I'm going to do this in a roundabout way. I'm going to ask you a bunch of questions. Some of them may seem silly, and some might be embarrassing, but I need you to trust me and answer them all honestly.""Okay, I'll try.""Good. Now first question: Do you think I'm pretty?""Of course I do. Most guys in school do.""Thank you," she said, blushing a little, "Now, I know all guys have different ideas about the ideal woman, but am I your ideal? Be honest.""No, you're not." I said a little chagrinned."Hey, don't worry about it. I asked for honesty. I'm somebody's ideal and I'll find them one day. Let's concentrate on your ideal woman. I'll say an attribute and you tell me what you like. You okay with this?""I guess.""Ok, height?""Your height, perhaps a little taller.""Hair?""Red, long and straight.""Longer than my shoulder length?" Anne asked."Yes.""Eyes?""Green.""Mouth?""Don't know. Never thought about that.""Not a problem. Now, don't get embarrassed, but look at my tits."I couldn't help it, I turned crimson, but I looked briefly. She had very nice tits."That's what I like about you, Tony; even with permission you don't ogle at a girl's chest. Most guys would be glued there right now. Ok, what would you change?""Nothing, I really like your tits," I said, turning even redder, if that were possible."Thanks, so do I. There's definitely something there to attract attention, but not too much. What about the butt? Do you like big butts?""Not really.""What about legs?""Long, with a good muscle structure.""Great. Now, here is what you just told me is your ideal woman; 5'9" or 5'10" tall, long, straight red hair, green eyes, an athletic build, long muscular legs leading up to a nice tight butt. Is that an accurate description?""Yes, that would be correct.""And you still don't see it do you?""I guess not. See what?""You just perfectly described Jenny Adams."I sat there for a moment. She was right of course, but I had never made the connection."Did you know that most guys think Jenny is the best looking girl in school? Many also think you are an idiot for not dating her. You've been best friends for so long you two cannot see it any other way. You should start looking at Jenny as the beautiful woman she is. With the great friendship you've already built, you two would make a perfect couple. Think about it, you dope," Anne ordered with a grin."I will, I promise," I said. "Now, I'd better get you home before your dad sends out the posse."I drove her home in silence. When I walked her to the door, I said, "Thanks a lot for telling me that, Anne. I guess it's true it's sometimes hard to see what is right in front of your nose.""You're welcome. I'm sure you two will be very happy together. Now, I don't usually do this on a first date, but as I'm pretty sure I've just ensured there won't be a second one, kiss me good night.""Gladly."I leaned forward and gave her a gentle kiss. She was having none of that. Throwing her arms around my neck she pulled me in for a nice, hard kiss. It seemed to last forever, breaking only when we ran out of air."Thanks, that's just what I wanted," she said smiling. "Now, go get her, Tiger!" With that, she turned and went inside.It's a good thing the route home was so familiar, as I was not paying too much attention to where I was going; I was thinking about Jenny. She was beautiful. She was also a great person. She was funny and fun to be around; kind to everyone; caring with genuine compassion; helpful whenever you needed her. She had so many wonderful qualities that it's hard to think of them all.Two days later, Jenny was over at my house watching TV. As the movie ended, she turned to me, saying, "Okay, Tony, what's up? You've been quiet all day and you've been giving me some funny looks."I hesitated before answering, unsure as to how to answer. I was really nervous about how this would go. I took a deep breath."Jenny, will you go out with me on Friday?" I asked her."Sure, we can get together and...""No, please, that's not what I mean. I don't want to just get together; I want to go on a date, a real date."She looked at me with her eyebrows raised. I could see the wonder in her eyes."Look, Jenny, I know we've been friends for a long time, you've always been my best friend, but lately I've been seeing you in a different light. I've always known you were pretty, but I'm starting to see just how beautiful you really are. I've always known you were a girl, but now I'm seeing you as a woman. We're friends but I'd like to see if maybe we could be more."She sat there, deep in thought. I waited for her to decide.After several minutes I added, "I know this is sudden. You don't have to answer now if you want to think about it for a while. Don't be afraid to say no. Nothing will change if you say no."She smiled at me and said, "I don't need to wait. Of course I'll go on a date with you. I just wasn't expecting it. What brought this about?""I'll tell you, I promise, but not right now. What time do you want to start?""Um, I'll let you know.""Fine. Want a Coke?""Sure."I went a got one for each of us. We watched some more TV, neither one of us talking much. When she left to go home, she paused at the door and gave me a long look, smiling slightly.The rest of the week seemed to last forever. Jenny must have said something to her dad, and he spoke to my parents, because on Wednesday evening Mom came into my room, announcing, "Let me know what you plan on wearing for your big date Friday, and I'll make sure it's clean and nicely pressed.""Okay, Mom, thanks. I'm not sure...wait, how did you know about Friday?""Moms just know," she said, grinning. "If there's anything else I can do for you, let me know."When Friday came, I had still not told her what I wanted to wear, having changed my mind several times. I went out in the afternoon to get a haircut. When I got back home, there was a brand new outfit laying on my bed waiting. It was perfect. As I was getting ready, my dad came in my room."Here, try some of this," he said, handing me a bottle of cologne. "It's a very popular scent.""Thanks, Dad.""Also, a good date needs a good ride. Take my car tonight."I was stunned. Dad rarely let's anyone drive his car. He had saved for years to afford it. "Are you sure?" I asked."Yes, I'm sure. I got it cleaned up nicely today and it's got a full tank of gas. Enjoy yourself.""Wow, thanks, Dad! You're awesome."When the time came, I walked across to her house and knocked. Mr. Adams answered."Come on in Tony, she'll be right down. Where are you going tonight?" he asked."I made a reservation at that new Italian place south of the mall. After that, we'll just see. Probably a movie later on," I answered.We heard the sound of Jenny coming down the stairs. I turned to see her and was stunned. She was wearing a light green sun dress that stopped just above her knees. Her legs looked great, tapering to a pair of strappy sandals with a 2½-inch heel. Her red hair cascaded down over the front of her shoulders, framing her face nicely. Jenny's eyes were sparkling and she was grinning from ear to ear.I walked up to her as she got to the bottom of the stairs."I've never seen you look more beautiful," I said.She blushed a little and said, "Thanks, you look great, too."We walked back to her dad."Have fun tonight you two," he said. "I've talked to your parents, Tony, and for tonight, and tonight only, there is no curfew for you two - just don't push it too far.""We won't, Mr. Adams, I promise," I said.We walked across the street to the car. Jenny's eyes got huge when she saw we were heading to Dad's car. We drove to the restaurant in an awkward silence. As we were waiting for the table, I reached out and took her hand in mine. I wasn't sure if it was a good idea, as I figured she could feel that my heart was beating about 200 times a minute. Jenny just smiled at me and squeezed it gently.Dinner went well. The talking started slow, but we loosened up some as things went on. By the end I think I had my heart down to about 150.

'Trauma is a fact of life. It does not, however, have to be a life sentence. Not only can trauma be healed, but with appropriate guidance and support, it can be transformative'This insight comes from one of the world's foremost experts on trauma, and a true pioneer in the field: Dr. Peter Levine.He is the developer of Somatic Experiencing®, a groundbreaking, neurobiological approach to trauma healing that he's spent over 50 years developing. With doctorates in both Biophysics and Psychology, Peter has helped redefine how we understand trauma in the world not as a disorder of the mind, but as a deeply embedded, hyperaroused stress response in the body that calls for a body-oriented approach to healing.His best-known work, Waking the Tiger, has become a classic in the field of trauma and has been published in over 29 languages. He's also the author of 'Healing Trauma', 'In an Unspoken Voice', 'Trauma and Memory', and his most recent book, An 'Autobiography of Trauma: A Healing Journey' which is a deeply personal look into his life and his journey of overcoming trauma.Dr. Levine's work has now been taught to over 30,000 therapists in more than 42 countries, he's been recognized with multiple Lifetime Achievement Awards, and he continues to teach and consult internationally.In my interview with Dr. Levine, we explore his core understandings of trauma, debunking the myth that it's a brain disorder or a psychological weakness. Instead, he frames trauma as the body's natural response to overwhelming experiences that were never fully processed or completed.We discuss:The relationship between trauma and the body, and why true healing doesn't happen solely through cognitive insight, but through deep bodily integrationA powerful story from his book 'In an Unspoken Voice', sharing his experience of being hit by a car 20 years ago. He walks us through how he processed and released the stress response in his body, which helped him mitigate the onset of PTSD and served as a real-time application of his life's work.The process of writing his most recent book and the deeper intention behind sharing his personal journey.How men, especially those conditioned to view the world through a lens of threat or mistrust can begin to return back to safety, openness, and intimacy in relationship.Dr. Peter Levine's work has been absolutely foundational in my own life, helping me understand trauma and how to work through my own personal experiences with chronic anxiety and depression.I see this episode as an important one for any man who's seeking a deeper understanding of what trauma is, and how to begin orientating back to the body and learning to work with it.It was an absolute honor to speak with someone I consider a true legend in the field. I deeply commend Dr. Levine's resilience, dedication, courage and his unwavering commitment to bringing these revolutionary insights to the world at a time when few people even understood what trauma was.—Connect with Dr. Peter A.

In this deeply personal solo episode, Emily shares a sacred goodbye to Gather in Growth—the name, the container, the version of herself who first hit record nearly three years ago. What began as a cozy, soul-nourishing space for women navigating personal and professional growth has transformed into something wilder, deeper, and more expansive than she could've imagined. This isn't an ending—it's an evolution.Emily pulls back the curtain on the pivotal conversation that sparked this change, the resistance she felt at first, and the slow, undeniable awakening that followed. This episode is for anyone standing on the edge of their next chapter, unsure of what it will look like—but certain they can't stay where they've been. It's an invitation to evolve, to trust, and to boldly walk into the unknown. Wild & Waking is not just a new name—it's the next era. And it starts now.In this episode, I explore:The origin story behind the name change and the moment Emily realized Gather in Growth no longer fully reflected the depth of her workResistance to letting go of a beloved brand identity—and the eventual surrender to what was asking to be birthedWhy Wild & Waking feels like a soul-level fit for this next chapter of Emily's journey and communityHow Emily's own spiritual awakening and deep dive into the divine feminine has been reshaping her voice, vision, and workThe messy, nonlinear path of evolution—and the importance of staying with the questions even when clarity hasn't arrivedWhat it means to shed subconscious masks, release performative safety, and embody true belonging within yourselfA love letter to the women who feel like they don't quite fit anywhere else—and the invitation to come home to your wild, awakened selfBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Related Episodes:Episode 143 | Soul Expansion for the Wild & Waking Woman: What Happens When You Realize You're Not for EveryoneResources and Links:Sign up here to get the inside scoop to my book writing journey!Book me as a speaker for your next event - email inquiries to emilyreuschel@gmail.com or schedule a call hereGather in Growth Podcast Production – Produced by Jill Carr Podcasting | Learn More

Anyone with a baby somewhere around 4-6 months has probably heard the advice to start solids to help improve sleep. And yet, the reality of the impact of solid food on baby sleep doesn't back up this common advice. In this episode I'm talking about the popular sleep advice to start solids to improve nighttime sleep. I discuss the reality of solids food having a neutral to negative impact on sleep and the reasons for this including:Waking isn't just about hunger.Solids generally aren't very calorically dense.Babies don't generally eat a lot of solids at first.Digestive issues can happen as baby adjusts to solids that disrupt sleep.Shifting calories to the daytime may help if baby is reverse cycling.Resources related to this episodeSigns of readiness for solids: https://kellymom.com/nutrition/starting-solids/solids-when/Reverse cycling tips: https://intuitiveparentingdc.com/blog/2023/6/27/reverse-cycling-why-your-baby-is-suddenly-feeding-more-at-nightConnect with Kim Learn more about working with Kim and grab your free sleep myth busting guide: https://intuitiveparentingdc.com/Instagram: instagram.com/intuitive_parenting_dcFacebook:  facebook.com/intuitiveparentingdc

Client Reviews…   ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jenny's teachings have produced results reconnecting me with my estranged daughter I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and guidance received in the most tragic time of my life from coach Jenny Good. Her faith, compassion, understanding, dedication and display of radical love has truly been life-changing for me. I was so overwhelmed with feelings of confusion, guilt, and sadness. I felt lost and didn't know how to navigate through the emotional turmoil I was experiencing. However, from the very first call, Jenny created a safe and non-judgmental space for me to share my details. Her ability to listen attentively and empathize while helping me understand a different way of thinking is truly remarkable. She understood my feelings and offered tools each session in ways I have not experienced even from therapy. I am forever thankful for the medicine she has poured into me to be the very best version of myself! This has rippled into all areas of life for me. Jenny's teachings have produced results reconnecting me with my estranged daughter! Thank you for being the vessel of unwavering faith & love that so many of us could benefit from, estranged or not. A true Godsend.  - Melinda Wyman . ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I am living a truly happy life, and I reconciled with my son  Having a coach and mentor who is rooted in Christ is very important. I've experienced so much inner healing with Jenny as my Coach. I am living a truly happy life, and I reconciled with my son! I feel empowered to continue stepping into my full power as a mother and to live a life where my children matter, but they don't determine my worth.

In this episode, we tackle the challenging but vital question: How can we support nervous system regulation when someone isn't in a safe environment? Drawing from Deb Dana's Polyvagal Theory expertise and current research, we explore practical strategies for both practitioners and individuals navigating unsafe circumstances.In this episode you'll learn:How to identify small touch points that can activate brief ventral vagal statesSpecific techniques practitioners & individuals can use to support clients/themselves in unsafe environmentsMicro-practices for self-regulation during ongoing stress or threatThree Takeaways:Even in unsafe environments, small "safety or regulating anchors" (objects, memories, connections) can provide crucial moments of regulation. The goal isn't permanent regulation in unsafe circumstances, but creating brief reminders that another state exists.Oftentimes the first step in healing is acknowledging the reality of one's situation, not minimizing or denying it. Whether you're a practitioner or the individual going through it, remember that your struggle makes sense, your survival responses make sense.Recognizing and savoring these micro-moments of "safe enough" builds neural pathways that support resilience over time.Resources/Citations:National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-7233"Polyvagal Exercises for Safety and Connection" by Deb Dana"Anchored: How to Befriend Your Nervous System Using Polyvagal Theory" by Deb DanaLevine, P.

Feeling extra tired lately? Waking up and… feeling old?? In today's episode, I'm breaking down the biggest drivers behind your energy, vitality, stamina, and resilience. You'll learn the five key areas that shape how young or old you feel, how to tell the difference between true aging and reversible symptoms, simple shifts to restore your energy, and where to start if you're feeling completely wiped out.First things first—if you've been saying “I feel old” or “aging is the worst,” stop! Instead, get curious: What exactly makes you feel that way? Better yet, ask yourself what habits might be making you feel that way. Blaming age lets us off the hook—and keeps us stuck.Here are five truths about feeling old and ways to combat those feelings:1. Symptoms vs. Signs of AgingMany so-called “aging” symptoms (fatigue, brain fog, low energy) are actually reversible. Mitochondrial function plays a big role here.2. Exercise & CirculationNot all movement is equal. Real exercise, like steady cardio, intervals, and strength training, boosts circulation and energy. Use heart rate tracking to make sure your workouts count.3. Sleep Quality > QuantitySleep is a skill. Things like caffeine, alcohol, and lack of strength training can wreck your sleep. Focus on improving quality, not just getting more hours.4. Balanced NutritionIf you're dragging, start with food. Stabilizing blood sugar with balanced meals (protein, veggies, high-fiber carbs) can quickly boost energy and fat metabolism.5. Strength TrainingFeeling stiff, achy, or “old”? You likely need more muscle, not less movement. Strong muscles protect joints, reduce fatigue, and carry you through your day. Build strength progressively, and aim to leave workouts feeling better, not more drained.There's no one-size-fits-all exercise plan. What matters is recognizing the season you're in and choosing to work with your body, not against it.
