Whitney returns home to Los Angeles after her fall road trip with reflections on closure, accessibility, and the complicated peace that comes from choosing integrity over ease. This episode moves through themes of neurodivergence, justice sensitivity, anxiety, and the courage it takes to make decisions that protect long-term wellbeing—especially when the world rewards convenience and conformity.She shares the story of a major professional decision, how it tested her values, and what it revealed about people-pleasing, independence, and the constant tension between wanting to fit in and needing to stand apart. Along the way, she opens up about aging, masking, accessibility, and what it's like preparing for a music festival as a neurodivergent person navigating both excitement and overstimulation.If you've ever second-guessed a hard choice, questioned your limits, or felt torn between doing what's right and what's easy, this episode offers comfort, clarity, and realness about life in the gray areas.Join the Community: Want to stay connected between episodes?

What do crystals, fossils, stunning sunsets, black magic, demons and insanity have in common?Our drive to Colorado does.It started as a simple trip — one week or so in Delta,Co., including driving time because we were scheduled to present at a Sasquatch conference in Beaver, Wa. immediately on our return. Larry and I had found a piece of land in Colorado that was stunning: acres of desert mesa beauty covered in selenite crystals, ancient fossils, and wide open sky. But to make it ours, we stepped into something else entirely.The land we originally purchased was not empty. It is 40 acres, half of which when looked upon resembles a moonscape pristine and majestic alluring and entrancing, yet look the other direction, and it was sprinkled in abandoned squatters encampments — people living in tents, and improvised shacks, surrounded by hills of garbage, abandoned vehicles, and the unmistakable residue of drugs and dark practices. It wasn't just a physical mess. The entire area felt thick, like a psychic swamp.Yet, the power and the message from the land was very clear: clean me.This started a line of questions and inquiries for Larry and me because it did not make much sense for our lives. Yes, the whole thing came about because we bought land and wanted to hold in person events there — yet the view was massively and negatively impacted by the encampments, not exactly the ideal backdrop for a gathering.We wondered how to fence off or hide the view of the encampments — maybe trees, or a very big fence — so our guests would not be subjected to the negative view. Little did we realize then that the negativity was not just in the view; the people there were drug addicts and black magic practitioners. It was a classic case of buying a slice of paradise then finding out your neighbors are 100% incompatible with your enjoyment of that paradise. Something not unlike the present split in reality we are cocreating this very moment more broadly. Some things are simply incompatible with each other. Period.But that realization came some time later.Some months ago, one of our neighbors told us that the parcel covered in black magic and detritus was for sale through a foreclosure sale. Larry and I looked at our finances and bought it. After the sheriff's sale, we believed the previous owners and their guests would become compelled to leave and we would have clean, clear land with some clean up perhaps to conduct.Nope. They dug in, and we had to spend months and thousands of dollars in litigation to clear them out. Apparently, landowners in Colorado have a huge burden and many hoops to clearing their land from individuals with any claim whatsoever to being present. Once cleared, trespassing is very strongly enforced with very serious consequences, but give, as in give permission at any point, even in a limited manner, and that can quickly be construed as permission to inhabit which then requires a long process to rescind.As we arrived there for our week visit, I remember standing there the first day, watching the wind shimmer through the crystals on the ground while the smell of decay and burnt plastic rose from piles of trash. Light and shadow, beauty and horror, coexisting within the same few acres of land. I thought it would be a quick cleanup because the eviction process was set and it was just a matter of the sheriff coming over and getting the squatters to leave the land.I was wrong.The Land of ParadoxThere's something surreal about seeing selenite glinting in the sunlight beside syringes and blackened fire pits. The land itself seemed to whisper — “Clean me.” It was both sacred and deep. Ancient. Yet, the surface was anything but.Larry and I sat down to discuss why Gaia — the land and the human collective — wanted it cleaned. After all, what does it matter to Gaia if those people and garbage stay there? After a million years, nothing would be left of them. A million years ago everything there was blown to smithereens by the largest volcanic eruption on the continent creating the flat topped mesa 100's of square miles in size, which is just the base of this gigantic mountain that is no more. Another million years ago the entirety was submerged at the bottom of an ocean of water. So a few people? What's the biggie, besides it was nasty to experience in our present, a dark to our light. But the message came in stronger every day: no one was allowed to stay, and no garbage was allowed to stay either.We visited the sheriff's office to find out what we were supposed to do, and they were very clear that for the process to be legal, we had to be present. Physically stay and be there for the entire process to be legal and complete. Otherwise, it would be cancelled and would need to begin over again from the beginning.Oops… We might not make our sasquatch event commitment…The eviction date was not the one stated in the judgment. We had to wait two days after that date, then get a writ for the sheriff, who would then post eviction notices, and after ten more days, go to the land to evict them. After that, the people would get another day to get all their stuff out.Not only that, but the eviction process itself was complex. It required us to go into all the structures where people were living — RVs, mobile homes, and so on — and remove absolutely everything that was not nailed to the ground, floor, or ceiling… by hand, and place it in an area they could later accessYup, we were told we had to move all the items by hand. There were deadlines, county notices, and an eviction process already in motion. On paper, it looked straightforward. In reality, what those people had in their living accommodations was the stuff of nightmares. The rooms were filled from floor to ceiling with garbage, scrap metal, dirty laundry and dishes, and so much more — including drug needles and black magic sigils on the floors, walls, and ceilings.And then came the energy of resistance. The people living there didn't want to leave. They begged, lied, cast spells, called the sheriff, their own lawyers, and called upon spirits — sometimes all in the same day. They wept and they cursed. It wasn't just about losing a camp; it was about a dark collective trying to hold on to territory, both physical and energetic.At night, I could feel the field pulsing — fear, anger, confusion, war. Each morning, I'd wake determined to face it again, and each night, I'd fall into bed emotionally drained, my nervous system fried.The Human Vessel of DarknessIt's easy to think of “squatters” as a faceless problem. But once you meet them, you realize they're human vessels of darkness — fragments of the collective human psyche acting out low-frequency patterns: aggression, anger, suffering, indulgence, righteousness. Each one carried archetypes: the lost healer, the trickster, the wanderer, the wounded child, the demon, the mage.Some were kind, some dangerous, some clearly caught in deep delusion. A few believed the land was “theirs by divine right.” Others just wanted to stick it to the man. I couldn't help but feel pity for their choices — but pity alone wasn't enough.One of the sheriff's deputies told us to be careful — that these people had months to get organized and leave, and they hadn't. They would try to get us to let them stay longer, but if we agreed, the entire legal process we had gone through would be invalidated.For most lightworkers, the hardest part is learning where compassion ends and enabling begins. Sometimes love wears the face of firmness. Saying “no” to darkness is not a rejection of humanity — it's a kindness and an affirmation of truth.This was one of the most important things to keep in mind for this trip: staying loving without becoming naïve, staying clear without becoming aggressive or overwhelmed.Still, leading up to the eviction date, our bodies took a toll — both emotionally and physically.And then, our allies rallied around us.Yes — four of our Driving to the Rez panelists, plus our friend Teo, traveled over a thousand miles to help us clean not just the new land, but also the previous property, which still had garbage and negative energies from the previous year when we had purchased it.They arrived in two RVs, with their pet dogs, garbage bags, gloves, and other equipment to get the job done. And did they ever!They arrived a few days before the eviction date and got to work. We also had an amazing time hunting for desert-grown selenite crystals, fossils, agates, jasper, and petrified wood.At night, we gathered to skywatch in the desert and saw multiple planes, satellites, and yes — UFOs!The Eviction Day ArrivedThe sheriff's deputies arrived on time, calm and professional. The county representatives were kind, responsive, and genuinely concerned. The neighbors offered tools, advice, and hands.It was as if the universe had organized a living example of collective light-in-action. Where I expected bureaucracy, I found compassion. Where I expected to be overwhelmed, I found help.It reminded me that humanity is not lost. The system — often criticized for its lack of empathy — became, in this case, a framework through which order, safety, and clarity could flow.It wasn't “us versus them.” It was all of us bringing a corner of reality back into coherence.Larry and I met the sheriff's deputies at the road and decided to evict the trailers scattered throughout the land first. As it happened, the people had already left, but they had left their trailers and a lot of items inside them. We left our helpers back at our other parcel until we were sure those people were gone; they had become aggressive in previous days, and we didn't want to risk anyone's safety.We had employed a moving company that specialized in evictions. They said they would empty the buildings, place everything on the doorway, and then we had to move it away to a designated area where the squatters then had 24 hours to collect it.Two big, strong men arrived to empty the trailers and buildings, and Larry got to work with them.Then it was time for the big mobile homes. The sheriff told the people to leave the building, and they did so without a fuss. We called our friends, and they came over to start getting everything from the doorway out into the land where the squatters could then pick through it and take whatever they wanted. For 24 hours, all that stuff was still theirs.It took about eight hours non-stop to remove all the items from the two mobile homes. The residents were hoarders — like the worst nightmare show on TV, but worse. Looking back, if our friends had not come, we would have taken several days to finish the job.All I could do was watch and hold space, as before we left for Colorado I had broken my ankle and was not able to move much or stand on it.The Weight of NegativityDespite all the help, the experience took a toll. The level of emotional and mental pressure was something I hadn't felt in years. It wasn't just the logistics; it was the energetic density. The constant whining, as the adults played victims and painted us as aggressors, was exhausting.There was a young boy, around fifteen years old, who lived in that mess. Quite honestly, he was the most positive and helpful of the entire group.My emotional body felt inflamed and overstretched. My mental field would spin with intrusive thoughts and worries that weren't ours. At times I'd stare at the situation, wondering how so much darkness could exist in one place.One of the pieces of guidance I had received before eviction day was to realize that this was not about those people. They chose to stay where they didn't belong and to live in that type of situation. Gaia and the human collective did not want them there, and we were facilitating their exit. They will be fine and continue with their choices no matter where they go.Remember, this is our land now. As a matter of fact, they went to live at a much larger property with others who have the same lifestyle. We know this because, in the following week, we helped them take a lot of their stuff to the new land. They were not unhappy. On the contrary.It reminded me that in the light paradigm, darkness is literally not allowed to exist. Cruelty, addiction, co-dependent behavior, and black magic — all these things are not allowed to exist in our lives. Therefore, as we now owned the land, all those energies, and the people who carried them, had to leave.But why? I still wondered.Well, if you know my work, you'll know about the connection between power and land — and perhaps the Mapuche concept of the Rewe (pronounced “ewe,” though not spelled that way).I asked Gaia, why is it so important to own this land in Colorado and to clean it? We have our home in Washington State, and we have the Shamanashack and our collective land at Fossil Beach — so what is significant about the properties in Colorado?The answer came — fascinating, but not yet fully understood. The answer was: “The land in Colorado is a Rewe reservoir.”A reservoir of power? And if so, how do we access it?Well, the people there were using it for darkness. The Rewe was not fully activated, as no one knew how to do it — which was a good thing.So that was the reason for the removal of the people and the garbage that was encrusted on the land.It was not until everyone left and removed their claims that I pulled a couple of cards to get guidance on the land, and two things happened. One of them was that the power came out from inside the land and rose through my spine into the world — to take form.Just a note here: the sentence “The light inside rises and becomes form” will be fully explained in my next class, The Source Code of Manifestation: Unlocking the Quantum Core of Creation, which you can pre-orde here: “The Source Code of Manifestation”Sanity in the Midst of InsanityTo stay sane, I had to practice extreme diligence. Every day began with grounding, breathing, and re-centering in presence. I'd remind myself: observe, don't absorb.When fear, in the shape of stress, tried to creep in, I observed it as an external weather system. When exhaustion hit, I found small moments of beauty — the fossil of a shell glinting from the dirt, the way the setting sun turned the desert gold and purple, the laughter of a friend helping load the truck.The secret wasn't escaping the insanity. It was standing as the still point within it. Each day became an exercise in applied awareness — all the while allowing the inner light to rise and become form.What I understood is that true mastery is not theory or information only. We need to apply it for it to help — to use it in the mud, under pressure, surrounded by chaos, when the only thing holding us together is our choice to stay conscious and respond instead of react.The Turning PointWhen the final eviction was over, I didn't feel triumphant. I felt relief — and a strange sadness. That evening, a deep silence settled over the land. For the first time, I could hear the desert breathe again. Not just that, but I could feel myself and the desert breathing together.Our friends left after the squatters moved on. It still took a few extra days for the garbage to be hauled away, and beneath it all, the land revealed herself: ancient, raw, luminous. The selenite caught the morning light like tiny galaxies embedded in stone.A one-week trip had turned into a month-long marathon. The journey wasn't about property or cleanup — it was about embodiment, boundaries, and the split within consciousness. The human collective, represented by the county, the sheriff, the neighbors, and our small team, had come together to restore coherence.It was proof that light doesn't fight darkness — it simply holds a strong presence and boundaries for darkness to dissolve and move on. We were not friends, not acquaintances not cocreators with them, we were not enemies, conquerors, warriors pitted against each other, we were the light and only light.The Teaching from the LandLooking back, the land was the real teacher. The selenite — a stone of clarity, healing, and cleansing — wasn't just in the soil. It was in the experience. The fossils whispered of time, endurance, and the slow patience of existence.The entire ordeal mirrored humanity's current split: ancient wisdom buried under layers of distortion, now rising to the surface to be seen and healed.The most impinging realization for me was how much stress the human body and mind can endure when we forget to stay centered — and how quickly peace returns when we do.In the end, sacredness wasn't found in the crystals or fossils, but in the discipline of staying clear and kind when the world around us spins in chaos and tries to engage us in victim–aggressor blame and fear.The land wanted us to stay, and the work was not done yet. There were still piles of garbage and structures on the land that needed to be dealt with, but Larry and I put our foot down and drove home. Surprisingly, our trips usually take twice as long as the GPS tells us, but this time, instead of three days, it only took two.Who stayed behind finishing the cleaning of the land, garbage collection, and more was our friend and neighbor Jay. He sent us a video yesterday and we could not believe the change. All that is left are the mobile homes and a shed — nothing salvageable but things the squatters want back, and if they are able to figure out a way to get them off the land, we will work with them to do it.And yes — there's so much more to this story. The adventure, the people, the strange synchronicities, and the laughter that kept us human through it all. Even three guys on electric bikes going up and down adobe hills!

Many people in our community say it has become virtually impossible to shift the weight since cancer and menopause. So of course we ask ourselves: What role do GLP-1 medicines play in cancer survivorship and what do we really know about their safety, risks, and benefits? In this episode, I'm joined by Caroline Tweedie, currently working as the lead cancer nurse in the North East of England. With over 17 years' experience as a Clinical Nurse Breast Specialist, Caroline has dedicated her career to improving the lives of those affected by breast cancer and sits on the NICE committee shaping national breast cancer guidance.We explore, with curiosity - and never with judgement:- What GLP-1 medicines are and why they are so effective- Safety concerns and what the evidence shows for cancer survivors- Why these drugs matter in breast cancer survivorship- The role of GLP-1s in weight, muscle, bone health, inflammation, and fatigue- Natural strategies that may work on similar pathways- Key risks to be aware of: hair loss, sarcopenia, drug absorption, and endocrine therapy interactions- What happens when you stop taking the drug- Practical advice for patients and clinicians navigating this new landscapeCaroline also shares her insights on why weight loss isn't the same as fitness, why muscle is the “anti-fatigue organ,” and what both patients and healthcare professionals need to know before considering GLP-1 use in survivorship care.This is a nuanced, evidence-based discussion that puts patients at the centre. Whether you're a survivor curious about GLP-1s or a healthcare professional supporting patients, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and practical takeaways.Episode Highlights:00:00 Intro12:09 Survivorship Challenges Beyond Cancer Treatment15:35 Weight Loss Treatments: Risks & Support16:42 Bariatric Surgery vs Rapid Weight Loss22:18 Protein Intake for Menopause Health25:04 "Deciding on GLP1 Treatment"29:06 GLP-1 Eligibility Criteria Explained35:40 "Drug Trials and Patient Safety"42:19 Obesity Support After Cancer43:31 Diabetes Drugs, Costs, Future HopeConnect with us:For more information and resources visit our website: www.menopauseandcancer.org Or follow us on Instagram @menopause_and_cancerJoin our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathub

“My biggest takeaway from this year's Menopause Society conference is how crucial getting quality sleep is for your heart, brain, mood, and even weight.” – Dr. Margaret Nachtigall   Key Links & Resources  Subscribe to the Age Better Newsletter on Substack   Watch full episodes on YouTube/Age Better Playlist  Read Barbara's Fix Your Body column in AARP The Magazine  Email questions: agebetterpodcast@gmail.com  Summary  In this episode of AGE BETTER with Barbara Hannah Grufferman, Dr. Margaret Nachtigall returns to share highlights from the 2025 Menopause Society Conference. From perimenopause to postmenopause, the latest research is shedding new light on how women can protect their heart, brain, bones, and overall health.  Barbara and Dr. Nachtigall cover a wide range of topics—why sleep is emerging as one of the most powerful tools for healthy aging, how hormonal changes affect weight and metabolism, what's new in brain and cognitive health, and the latest insights into bone strength and fracture prevention. Together, they unpack what every woman needs to know now to make smarter, science-based choices in midlife and beyond.  Takeaways  Sleep is foundational for heart health, brain function, mood, and weight management.  Perimenopause symptoms often begin earlier than many women expect—awareness matters.  New data show how hormonal changes affect metabolism and fat distribution.  Hot flashes are much more than a temporary symptom of menopause.   Cognitive health and dementia prevention remain top research priorities.  Bone health is critical: early interventions can help prevent fractures later in life.  Hormone therapy and non-hormonal options continue to evolve, offering more personalized choices.  Understanding the interplay of aging and menopause empowers women to take charge of their health.  Why Listen  This episode brings you the newest, most practical science from the 2025 Menopause Society Conference—direct from one of the top experts in the field.

In this Episode: Episode: "Refocus to Rise" Series, Episode 2 Hosts: Mark Cardone and Theron Feidt Topic: Boosting Your Body and Energy The hosts frame this episode as a guide for anyone needing a "reset," particularly for the new year. The central idea is to shift focus away from traditional health metrics like weight and instead prioritize energy, which they define as the capacity to do important daily tasks, like playing with kids or being present with a spouse. Here are the three main steps discussed for increasing and managing your energy: 1. Audit Your Energy, Not Your Weight The hosts argue that focusing on the scale is "backwards" because energy is a more immediate and relevant metric. Weight can be misleading (e.g., a bodybuilder's high muscle mass), but you always know how your energy feels right now. Action: For one week, keep a simple log (in a notebook or phone) of when you feel low energy. Goal: Look for the "cause and effect." Do you crash at 10:30 a.m. every day? It might be the sugary donut you ate earlier. Is it after a specific meal? Tweak: Once you find a pattern, make one small tweak (e.g., swap the donut for nuts) and see how it impacts your energy levels. 2. Move with Purpose, Not Pressure This step is about integrating movement consistently without feeling overwhelmed. Action: Define your "non-negotiable minimums" for movement. This could be a 20-minute walk or 20 squats. Setting a small, achievable minimum often leads to doing more. Action: Use "habit stacking." Attach a small movement habit to something you already do. For example, do 20 squats while your coffee brews or you're waiting for the microwave. Action: Celebrate the action, not the result. Instead of focusing on the mirror or the scale, celebrate the fact that you were consistent and "did the thing" you said you would do. 3. Prioritize Recovery and Sleep The hosts emphasize that movement and workouts tear muscles down; recovery is where "the magic happens." Action: Create a "shutdown ritual." This is a 15–30-minute wind-down period before bed to relax your body (e.g., light stretching, reading a book, putting your phone away). Action: Schedule your wind-down. Put it in your calendar or set an alarm (e.g., 9:15 p.m.) to remind yourself to begin the ritual, as it's easy to forget when busy. Action: Focus on sleep quality over quantity. While the amount of sleep varies for everyone (it's not a weakness to need 8 hours), the quality is key. Ensure your room is dark, quiet, and cool. You can use trackers (watches, rings) to monitor your REM and deep sleep to see what's working.   ARN Suggested Reading: Blessings In the Bullshit: A Guided Journal for Finding the BEST In Every Day – by Mark Cardone & Theron Feidt https://www.amazon.com/Blessings-Bullshit-Guided-Journal-Finding/dp/B09FP35ZXX/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=blessings+in+the+bullshit&qid=1632233840&sr=8-1 Full List of Recommended Books: https://www.achieveresultsnow.com/readers-are-leaders Questions? 1.   Do you have a question you want answered in a future podcast? 2.   Go to www.AchieveResultsNow.com to submit.

We all want the dream body, but almost none of us want to slow down long enough to build the base it actually requires. In today's episode, I'm sharing one of the most important lessons I've learned as both a coach and a client: you can't build a strong, sustainable body without a strong foundation.  I use the analogy of building a dream home because just like a house needs a solid foundation before the walls go up, your body needs metabolic stability and healthy habits before you layer on intense training or dieting.  Most of us try to skip this part because we're in a hurry to see results.  I get it. I used to be the impatient one who wanted the plan, the strategy, and the visible progress right away. But rushing your transformation is the fastest way to end up starting over again and again.  In this episode, I break down what the “foundation phase” actually looks like, including how we assess metabolism using SHREDS and why stabilizing sleep, hunger cues, digestion, energy, stress, and recovery is non-negotiable.  I share why this phase can feel slow and why that slow work is what makes everything that comes after actually stick. I also walk through the three phases of a healthy nutrition journey and how to know which phase you're truly ready for.  This is about building a body that can handle real life. Vacations, busy seasons, holidays, stress, and everything in between. When your foundation is strong, you don't fall apart when your routine changes. You adapt and you bounce back.  If you've been feeling frustrated with slow progress, this episode may be the reframe you needed. Take a breath — you might just be pouring the concrete.  Time Stamps: (2:57) Next Stage of Homeownership (4:34) Building The Foundation (7:27) When I First Started My Fitness Journey (12:42) The Metabolic Assessment (19:42) Building The Walls Next (20:27) Vital Spark's 3 Phases (28:02) Please Share and Review---------------------Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

If you've had bariatric surgery, you already know what it means to commit fully to your health.  But even with your best efforts, bodies adapt, hormones shift, and life adds its own complications. When weight begins to creep back, many people turn to GLP-1 medications for support, and that raises a crucial question: How well do GLP-1s actually work after bariatric surgery?I recently heard from a listener living this exact experience — someone who lost more than 200 pounds after gastric bypass and has now started Zepbound to address weight regain. Her story opens the door to an important conversation about why GLP-1 medications can behave differently in a post-bariatric body, why results may not mirror those of someone without surgical history, and how to redefine success when you've already achieved a significant transformation.ReferencesThe Obesity Guide: Behind the Curtain (Season 1)The Obesity Guide: Behind the Curtain (Season 2) - Includes access to the December 21-Day Challenge with daily coaching, actionable steps, and community support to end your year with momentum.Audio Stamps00:40 - Dr. Rentea shares a heartwarming reunion at the VA, reconnecting with former colleagues and reflecting on how far she's come in her weight loss journey.07:10 - Fan mail question: Does Zepbound (tirzepatide) work the same after gastric bypass surgery, and what weight loss results should you expect?09:11 - Why post-bariatric patients often respond better to GLP-1 medications and become "hyper responders" at lower doses.16:18 - Redefining success: why focusing on your relationship with food and sustainability matters more than hitting a specific weight loss percentage.17:48 - Common post-surgery pitfalls including grazing patterns, excessive step counting, and neglecting body composition tracking.20:42 - Information on the December 21-Day Challenge and upcoming 30/30 program rounds.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Today on the Show: Lame Claims to fame! Plus, we find out the average weight of our listenership. And we speak to Ish Sodhi! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This message reminds us that God's presence is not something to be treated casually or approached on our own terms. His glory carries weight—it transforms us, refines us, and demands reverence. Too often we become comfortable coming in and out of His presence unchanged, but we're called to be more than spectators. We are meant to be carriers of His glory, willing to bear its weight and let it shape every part of our lives.

The Weight Of Words | Pastor Devon Frye by Connect Church

In this message, The Weight of Glory from Romans 8:18–22, we explore Paul's breathtaking vision that present suffering is not worth comparing to the glory that awaits God's people. Through vivid imagery and honest reflection, we're reminded that the path to glory always runs through the cross—and that even creation itself longs for the day when all things are made new

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) improves health without weight loss. Research shows that short high-intensity workouts boost cardiovascular health, and reduce body fat HIIT also increased HDL cholesterol levels, lowered blood pressure, and improved peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak) in overweight teens Prediabetics also benefit from HIIT. Analysis shows it outperformed continuous aerobic training by improving insulin sensitivity, glucose processing, and creating more energy-producing mitochondria Moderation is key for safety. An expert recommends limiting high-intensity exercise to 75 minutes weekly and strength training to 40 to 60 minutes weekly to avoid diminishing returns and health risks Effective sessions include a three-minute warmup, six minutes of high-intensity cardio, and combining cardio with strength training twice weekly

In this week's episode, I'm joined by emotional and disordered eating specialist Lisa Unger for an honest look at the rise of weight loss injections and the impact they can have. We explore how weight, food and wellbeing are deeply tied to our emotions, self esteem and body image.Lisa explains why medications like Ozempic can help some people, especially those with Type 2 diabetes, yet rarely create lasting change unless we also address the underlying drivers of our eating behaviours.We touch on the emotional layers that so often sit beneath overeating, why focusing only on food keeps us stuck, and how nurturing body esteem, self trust and emotional resilience leads to sustainable, long term change.Find out more about Lisa here; https://lisaunger.co.uk

When the system kills a $2.4 million study on Black maternal health with one Friday afternoon email, the message is loud and clear: stop asking questions that make power uncomfortable. Dr. Jaime Slaughter-Acey, an epidemiologist at UNC, built a groundbreaking project called LIFE-2 to uncover how racism and stress shape the biology of pregnancy. It was science rooted in community, humanity, and truth. Then NIH pulled the plug, calling her work “DEI.” Jaime didn't quit. She fought back, turning her grief into art and her outrage into action. This episode is about the cost of integrity, the politics of science, and what happens when researchers refuse to stay silent.RELATED LINKS• The Guardian article• NIH Grant• Jaime's LinkedIn Post• Jaime's Website• Faculty PageFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Drake Maye has been on an incredible roll which the numbers clearly support, but there's one stat that Mego and Lyons agree is under more of a microscope. Why passer rating should take a back seat to turnovers? Then, hoop head Mego gets into the Celtics and the roster construction is more at fault for their recent losses instead of Joe Mazzulla's three-point philosophy. And, some disagreement among radio hosts in this building in regards to Derrick White's sluggish start.

What if the hardest seasons are the ones that actually teach us how to live? That's the thread we follow with author and chaplain Sam Wegner as he opens up about walking through his wife's stage 4 cancer, months that turned into years, a long job loss, and the daily choice to trust a God who doesn't flinch when the ground shifts beneath us.Sam shares how “the weight of the wait” exposes our craving for control and invites a sturdier kind of hope—one grounded not in outcomes but in the unchanging goodness of God. We talk about why affliction can be a teacher, how milestones like “just get to Easter” can disorient when we outlive them, and why real rest is an act of surrender rather than a luxury. He tells a raw story of waking up drowning in dread, breaking the spiral with first principles—God is good, God provides—and finding peace that didn't fix the circumstances but freed his heart to keep going.We also get practical: the difference between positivity and true hope, how to recognize when your body is carrying what your soul won't release, and why asking for prayer to endure may be more powerful than asking for the storm to end. Sam walks us through The Weight of the Wait—available in print, Kindle, and audiobook in his own voice—and the listener stories that continue to shape him, including a reminder that avoidance may feel safe but keeps us from healing.If you need a reason to keep moving when answers are slow and the stakes are high, this conversation is a companion for the long road.

Millions of people have been persuaded that the GLP-1 agonist drugs are the answer to their weight loss prayers. While they do work well in the near-term for weight loss, the long-term health price you pay is substantial with a future of increased risk for frailty, loss of independence, and premature death. A better way is to manage the amount and location of muscle and fat, i.e., shape and body composition. And you can do so easily, naturally, and inexpensively. Support the showYouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@WilliamDavisMD Blog: WilliamDavisMD.com Membership website for two-way Zoom group meetings: InnerCircle.DrDavisInfiniteHealth.com Books: Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded ed
