Forrest is joined by journalist and author Michael Easter to discuss how we can make our lives better by making them (the right kind of) harder. They start with one of modern life's paradoxes: things have gotten much easier, but this hasn't led to more happiness or fulfillment. Michael talks about how our biological wiring backfires in today's world of abundance, why humans need a mission, and the vital experiences we've lost. Other topics include problem creep, how everything has become a slot machine, rucking, and the “super medium” body. About our Guest: Michael Easter is a professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, journalist, and best-selling author of The Comfort Crisis, Scarcity Brain, and Walk with Weight.

Are we ignoring the most important issues of justice while fighting over trivial things? In this episode of the Voxology podcast, Mike and Tim tackle the heavy reality of the Epstein files and the church's response to systemic injustice. Join us for an honest conversation about anger, accountability, and a powerful message on faith. ⚖️ JUSTICE AND THE EPSTEIN FILES Things get serious as Mike reads a phenomenal post by Pastor Brian Drinkwine. We dive deep into the recent news surrounding the Epstein files, the Department of Justice, and political figures. ⛪ THE CHURCHS RESPONSE This is a raw look at how American Christianity has become skilled at straining gnats and swallowing camels. Why do we go to war over church carpet colors but stay silent on the exploitation of the vulnerable? We discuss the heartbreak of losing trust in leaders and the challenge of Matthew 20. Jesus asks if we can drink the cup of reckoning without rushing to defend our political tribes. THE POWERS AND PRINCIPALITIES Then, Mike and Tim explore the concept of powers and principalities, the wisdom of God versus human wisdom, and redefine what freedom in Christ truly means. The conversation is rich with personal reflections, cultural critiques, and a call to action for listeners to engage with the world around them.

Hot flashes. Brain fog. Extra weight that won't budge. You're not imagining it — and you're not powerless. Dr. Amy Shah, MD, double board-certified physician and author of Hormone Havoc, says food is the most underused tool for navigating menopause — but most doctors never bring nutrition up. We explore her 30-30-3 method, the power of protein timing, why most women are way under the daily recommended fiber intake, which probiotic foods ease symptoms, and how small, sustainable shifts can restore your energy, sharpen your focus, and help you feel like yourself again. Fix your gut. Feel like yourself again, beauties!

In this episode of the EVOQ Bike podcast, Brendan and Landry discuss the importance of raw power in cycling and debunk the myth that watts per kilogram (W/kg) is the ultimate metric for success. They delve into a study that follows U23 cyclists and reveals how raw power can be more critical than body weight for professional success. They also offer training tips to improve raw power, the significance of proper fueling, and maintaining a balanced body composition. Additionally, they stress the importance of focusing on watts rather than W/kg, particularly for young and amateur riders.Chapters:00:43 Welcome!00:53 The Myth of Watts per Kilo01:21 Member Shoutouts and Exclusive Content01:50 Discussion on Raw Power and Body Composition02:19 Study on U23 Riders and Pro Success04:10 Practical Advice for Riders09:23 The Role of Durability in Racing14:01 The Impact of Aerodynamics17:44 Strategies to Improve Raw Power18:41 Understanding Body Composition and Energy Deficit19:24 The Importance of Fueling for Performance20:05 Real-Life Examples of Proper Fueling21:44 The Role of Recovery in Training22:16 Long-Term Weight Management Strategies24:06 Balancing Power and Weight for Performance29:12 Personal Experiences and Practical Tips33:54 Advice for Young Athletes36:34 Final Thoughts and Resources

You are not failing because you lack discipline. You're struggling because you're trying to live like a machine.  In this episode, I'm breaking down why most systems fall apart the moment life gets hard and how to rebuild yours so it actually works for a human nervous system.  We're taught to design routines assuming endless energy, focus, and motivation, but real life doesn't operate that way. You have limited time, attention, and willpower, and your systems need to reflect that reality.  I explain why the most effective systems are the ones that require the least amount of thinking and decision-making. When stress hits, you don't rise to the occasion. You default to your systems. If your routine only works on your best days, it's not a system, it's a wish. I walk you through how to design structures that hold you steady when you're tired, overwhelmed, or distracted. We'll talk about simplifying your priorities so consistency becomes automatic instead of exhausting.  I introduce the Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C framework to help you escape the all-or-nothing cycle. Plan A is for high-energy days, Plan B supports you when things feel harder, and Plan C keeps you moving forward on your worst days.  Success doesn't need to look the same every day, especially in different seasons of life. This episode will help you build systems that meet you where you are, so you can stay consistent without burning yourself out.   Time Stamps:   (2:32) Moving Updates   (6:22) The Fresh Start Effect   (8:54) Different Levels To Our Goals   (14:29) Beware Of The Comparison Trap   (16:28) Vanessa's Plan A --------------------- 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?

Why do most routines fail? It's not because you lack discipline. It's not because you're lazy. And it's definitely not because you “can't stick with anything.” Most routines fail because they were built for ideal conditions — not real life. In this episode, we talk about why so many home routines, fitness routines, and productivity systems collapse the moment life shifts — and how to build rhythms that bend instead of break. If you've ever searched: “How to stay consistent with workouts” “Why can't I stick to a routine?” “How to create a morning routine as a busy mom” “Christian productivity tips” “How to reduce mental load in motherhood” “Family systems that actually work” “How to stop falling off the wagon” “Sustainable fitness routine for moms” This conversation will hit home. You'll learn: Why routines built for full energy and zero interruptions are fragile The difference between rigid systems and flexible rhythms How decision fatigue quietly sabotages consistency Practical ways to reduce mental overload in motherhood Why small, boring faithfulness builds long-term strength How to stop copying Instagram systems and ask, “Lord, what do we need?” We also talk about real-life examples from our home: Morning routine cards for kids Shared household ownership Assigned laundry days Rotating responsibilities during homeschool Adjusting rhythms when life shifts This episode reframes consistency as quiet repetition — not dramatic motivation. Consistency isn't trained in loud, exciting moments. It's built in small, repetitive, everyday faithfulness. You'll also hear why bending doesn't mean abandoning the rhythm — it means adjusting without spiraling. That's maturity. That's wisdom. That's how routines survive real life. If your routines only work when you're at full capacity, they're not rhythms — they're liabilities. And if consistency has felt impossible, it's not because you're failing. It's because you need structure that adapts to your life. Inside this episode, we also connect this principle to fitness — how strength training, scalable workouts, and flexible programming allow you to keep going without “starting over” every time life changes. If you want routines that support: Weight loss without obsession Strength training that adapts to energy Sustainable health habits Faith-based fitness Mental clarity and reduced overwhelm Rhythms that align with your family mission This episode is for you.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Ryan: First off, I would like to say thanks for all that you do in supporting a healthy community, it's greatly appreciated. My question has to do with what and how much physical activity should you do while you are sick, along with what additional health modalities would you suggest. When you are sick or feeling like you're getting sick, do you continue hitting your 10,000 steps per day? Weight lift? Cardio? HIIT? Continue working out but at a reduced intensity? Should you substitute some activity for red light? Sauna? Yoga? And how would this differ from a cold to a fever? Thanks again!      Ann: Hi Dr. Cabral and as always thank you for being such a champion for us out here :) A friend swears that Milk Thistle helped her when she was battling liver cancer. I have NAFLD and am working to reduce it, and besides the ways you have outlined to help (episode 3017), I'm wondering if milk thistle could be a good addition? Thank you so much - have a blessed day:)      Dawn Marie:  Hi, Dr. Cabral. I had mono as a child, and again in 2023 when I was 48 years of age. In 2023, I was on day 17 of the detox when the mono re-emerged and I was quite sick, almost requiring hospitalization--liver enzymes quite high, thickening of gallbladder walls, and enlarged spleen. My doctor actually wrote me a referral to a surgeon to likely have my gall bladder removed! Thank goodness, after years of listening to your podcasts, I knew to do some research and discovered that after I recovered from the mono, all would return to normal and they did. My understanding is that Epstein-Barr "lives" in the liver and is difficult to fully heal from. I'd like to "kick it out" for good. Is there a way to fully heal from EBV? Is there any risk of it re-emerging if I try to do another 21-day detox?      Dylaini: Hi Dr Cabral! Thanks for all you do, you're a wealth of knowledge! I am working with a lot of tinnitus clients and some claim it's from being in the military and being exposed to loud noises, do you think this is simply a "stress" on the body and isn't necessarily a permeant issue from being exposed to loud noises? Thanks again!     Josephine: Hi Dr Cabral, you've been an amazing ing help to me over the years, thank you. I'm a 44year old woman living in Australia. I have idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis (IGH) on my legs and arms. I get this much more so than brown pigment spots. I understand sun protection is the best way to prevent this, however I'm wondering if you have any tips for how to treat it (most sources say pigment won't come back) and also what supplements or topical treatments (excluding sunscreen) might make the skin less susceptible.

Only songs are able to comfort the soul in its darkness—but can anyone hear them? Iman Humaydan's saga Songs for Darkness (Interlink, 2026) recalls the voices of four generations of women from one family in the imaginary village of Kasura, in Mount Lebanon. Its narrator, Asmahan, named after the beloved Syrian singer, has devoted her adult life to recovering the stories of her ancestors, who persisted in the shadows of male supremacy, war, military occupation, and impoverishment. Her mother, Layla, disappeared when Asmahan was still a teenager. Her grandmother, Yasmine, died giving birth. And her great-grandmother, Shahira, struggled through two world wars, famine, and suffocating gender norms to win an education for her children and eke out a better life for her family. Asmahan is determined to protect her daughter and break out of the cycle of intergenerational violence and wounds that the women who came before her suffered. She packs up her daughter to emigrate after a divorce, when her husband takes their son away from her on his seventh birthday, during the darkest days of the 1982 Israeli invasion. These women's legacies span and echo the scarred history of an abused homeland, from the eve of the first World War to the 1982 Lebanon War. In honoring their unfulfilled lives, Iman Humaydan insistently preserves intimate stories of abundant tenacity, generosity, sacrifice—and songs, provisions sorely needed for dark times. A conversation with translator Michelle Hartman Iman Humaydan Yunis is a Lebanese novelist, creative writing teacher, editor, and freelance journalist. Her novels received wide international acclaim and were translated into English, French, Italian, Dutch, German, Armenian, Polish, and Georgian.

She is also the editor of the collection of short stories Beirut Noir. She is the president of the Lebanese chapter of PEN, and splits her time between Beirut and Paris. Michelle Hartman is a literary translator and professor of Arabic literature at McGill University. She has translated more than a dozen novels from Arabic to English including three other novels by Iman Humaydan, The Weight of Paradise, Other Lives, and Wild Mulberries. Her latest translation is A Long Walk from Gaza (Interlink, 2024).

Maybe we're constantly dieting or abstaining from eating, maybe we're obsessively counting calories or working out, maybe we're spending crazy amounts of money on anti-aging procedures or products, or maybe we're just looking in the mirror and talking mad sh*t to ourselves. In this episode, I welcome therapist Gina Gratza to the show to talk through what's at the core of criticizing our bodies (hint: it has nothing to do with our actual bodies), and how we can return to loving the bodies we're in.Want to work with Remy?

Habitat Podcast #375 - In today's episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with co-host Andy and Cory Godar of Latitude Outdoors! We discuss: Weight savings matter most deep into multi-day hunts. Saddle hunting isn't just for public land — it's a lethal private land tool. Frame packs purpose-built for whitetail are filling a huge gap in the market. Efficient packing systems reduce noise, stress, and fatigue. Packing out a deer is often easier than dragging.

In this episode of the Modern Day Sniper Podcast, Caylen Wojcik sits down with Romeo Santiago for a grounded and meaningful conversation centered on service, sacrifice, and taking responsibility for those we served alongside. The discussion covers Romeo's military background, lessons learned during deployment in Ramadi, and the long-term challenges veterans face after combat. A major focus of the episode is the Keep the Promise Challenge, an upcoming endurance effort where Romeo will run 34 miles a day for five consecutive days to honor fallen comrades and raise awareness and support for veterans through organizations like Semper Fi. The conversation highlights the importance of remembrance, accountability, and building better support systems for veterans long after the mission ends.

Welcome to Day 2807 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2807 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 116:15-19 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2807 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2807 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title for Today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Costly Departure – A Sacrifice of Thanksgiving Today, we are bringing our deeply personal journey through Psalm One Hundred Sixteen to a glorious, triumphant conclusion. We will be trekking through the final stanza of this profound song, covering verses fifteen through nineteen, in the New Living Translation. Before we take our next step, we must look back over our shoulder at the trail we just traveled. In our previous trek, covering the first fourteen verses of this psalm, we stood beside a man who had stared into the terrifying abyss of the underworld. We heard his raw, trembling testimony. He told us how the ropes of death had wrapped around his neck, and how the terrors of the grave had overtaken him. In his absolute helplessness, he cried out a simple prayer: "Please, Lord, save me!" And Yahweh, the Most High God, bent down from the heavens to listen. He severed the cords of death, dried the psalmist's tears, and stabilized his stumbling feet. In overwhelming gratitude, the psalmist lifted the "Cup of Salvation," promising to praise the Lord in the land of the living. We also remembered that this is part of the Egyptian Hallel, the collection of psalms sung during the Passover. Jesus Himself sang these very words in the Upper Room, just hours before He faced the ultimate terror of the cross. Now, as we enter the final five verses, the psalmist transitions from the private terror of his near-death experience, to the public courts of the temple. He begins with a stunning revelation about how God views the death of His people, and ends with a communal feast of thanksgiving. It is a transition from the darkness of the grave, to the bright, joyful center of cosmic geography: Jerusalem. Let us walk into the temple courts, and listen to the conclusion of this magnificent testimony. The first segment is: The Weight of the Faithful: A Costly Departure. Psalm One Hundred Sixteen: verse fifteen. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful servants. This single verse is one of the most famous, and frequently quoted, comforts in the entire Bible, especially during times of grief. But to truly understand its depth, we must peel back the layers of the original Hebrew language, and view it through the lens of the Ancient Israelite worldview. The word translated as "precious" is yaqar. In English, when we hear the word "precious," we often think of something sweet, sentimental, or cute. But that is not what yaqar means. In biblical Hebrew, yaqar means heavy, rare, costly, or of immense value. It is the word used to describe rare jewels, or the heavy, expensive stones used to lay the foundation of the temple. Therefore, the psalmist is not saying that God finds our death sweet or pleasant. Death is the enemy. Death, in the ancient mindset, was the ultimate expression of the chaotic realm of Sheol. Instead, the psalmist is making a profound statement about our value: "Heavy, costly, and of immense consequence in the sight of Yahweh, is the death of His faithful ones." God does not view the passing of His people casually. He does not treat us as expendable pawns on a cosmic chessboard. When the forces of chaos and disease try to drag a believer down into the grave, the Lord takes it personally. It costs Him something. He values His human imagers so highly, that their departure from this earth is an event of cosmic gravity. The term "faithful servants" is the Hebrew word chasidim, which is rooted in Hesed—God's unfailing, loyal, covenant love. The chasidim are the loyal ones, the ones bound to God by covenant. Because He is fiercely loyal to them, He does not surrender them to the grave without a fight. In the case of this psalmist, God looked at the high cost of his death, stepped into the fray, and said, "Not today." He severed the ropes of Sheol, because the life of His servant was simply too valuable to lose to the darkness. When Jesus sang this verse on the night of His betrayal, He was acknowledging the profound weight of what He was about to do. His death would be the ultimate, costly departure. Yet, because it was so precious in the sight of the Father, it would become the very mechanism that defeated death forever. The second segment is: The Joyful Captive: Freedom Through Submission. Psalm One Hundred Sixteen: verse sixteen. O Lord, I am your servant; yes, I am your servant, born into your household; you have freed me from my chains. Having reflected on how much God values his life, the psalmist responds with an absolute surrender of his identity. He repeats his title twice for emphasis: "O Lord, I am your servant; yes, I am your servant." The word for "servant" here is ebed, which can also be translated as slave or bondservant. But this is not a forced, oppressive slavery; this is a willing, joyful submission to a benevolent King. The psalmist adds a beautiful, intimate detail: "born into your household." Literally, the text says, "the son of your maidservant." In the ancient Near East, a slave who was purchased from a foreign land had a very different status than a slave who was born within the master's own house. A servant born into the household was practically considered family. They grew up under the master's roof, ate the master's food, and enjoyed the master's protection. By calling himself the son of a maidservant, the psalmist is claiming a deep, lifelong, family connection to Yahweh. He is saying, "Lord, I belong to You. I have always belonged to You. I am a child of Your estate." And here is the beautiful paradox of the biblical worldview: true freedom is found only in becoming a servant of the Most High God. Notice the next phrase: "you have freed me from my chains." Just a few verses earlier, the psalmist was wrapped in the ropes of death. Those were the chains of chaos, destruction, and fear. By submitting himself entirely to Yahweh as a servant, those chains of oppression were shattered. In the Divine Council worldview, humans will always serve a master. We will either be enslaved by the dark, rebellious principalities of this world—forces that seek to bind us in addiction, fear, and ultimately the grave—or we will bind ourselves to the Creator, whose yoke is easy and whose burden is light. The psalmist declares that because God broke the chains of death, he is now happily, permanently bound to the Lord. He is a free man, precisely because he is God's servant. The third segment is: The Public Feast: Testifying in the Sacred Courts. Psalm One Hundred Sixteen: verses seventeen through nineteen. I will offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the Lord. I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people— in the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of Jerusalem. Praise the Lord! Now, the psalmist takes his private, internal gratitude, and makes it undeniably public. He transitions from the prayer closet, to the temple courts. He promises: "I will offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving." This is a very specific reference to the Levitical law. In the Book of Leviticus, Chapter Seven, the Todah—or Thanksgiving Sacrifice—was a type of peace offering. When an Israelite was rescued from a life-threatening illness, a dangerous journey, or a deadly enemy, they were instructed to bring an animal sacrifice, along with unleavened bread, to the tabernacle. But this sacrifice was unique. It was not burned up entirely on the altar. The priest took a portion, but the vast majority of the meat and bread was given back to the worshiper. The worshiper was then required to host a massive, joyful feast, inviting their family, friends, and even the poor, to eat the meal with them on that very same day. Think about the profound psychology of this ritual. You could not eat an entire animal by yourself. You had to invite a crowd. And as you passed the meat and the bread, people would naturally ask, "What are we celebrating?" That was your moment to testify. That was the moment to say, "I was standing at the edge of the grave. The ropes of death had me. But I called on the name of the Lord, and He saved me!" This is exactly what the psalmist intends to do: "and call on the name of the Lord. I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence...

In this episode of the Gladden Longevity Podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden sits down in person with fitness and nutrition expert Autumn Calabrese to unpack the full truth about GLP-1 agonists. With millions of people jumping on semaglutide, tirzepatide, and soon retatrutide, the conversation most doctors aren't having is about what's actually happening inside the body while the scale goes down. Dr. Gladden breaks down how GLP-1s suppress hunger, slow metabolism, and trigger muscle wasting when used without proper diagnostics or a supporting protocol. He explains the critical differences between GLP-1s, GLP-2s, and GLP-3s, reveals why the ghrelin rebound causes most people to regain everything they lost, and shares the strategies he uses in his practice to help patients lose fat while protecting lean tissue. From the 5-day fasting mimicking diet to natural GLP-1 boosters like metabolic probiotics and calocurb, this episode lays out a smarter, more sustainable path to optimizing body composition. Whether you're considering a GLP-1, already on one, or looking for alternatives, this is the conversation that could change your entire approach.

Thyroid dysfunction, declining sex hormones, and missing micronutrients can all be the real driver. • Sex hormone optimization during perimenopause and andropause is critical for maintaining body composition. • Willpower never wins long term.

You submitted the questions. Now here are the real answers. In this episode, I'm sharing a replay of a live Q&A I did the other week — and I answer the questions you're probably too embarrassed to ask out loud.  Why can't you stop eating after supper even though you know better? Is it worth tracking macros? Do supplements actually work? What about exercise in menopause? And is change even possible if you've struggled your whole life? The answers will surprise you. Because the way I talk about this stuff these topics is very different from the standard "just eat less" mentality.  Be sure to listen.  And then listen again - this one is packed with a LOT of tips. This episode is perfect for you if you're exhausted from trying to fix your eating in the evening, frustrated that your workouts aren't moving the scale, and ready to hear something that actually makes sense for your real life.

Hot flashes. Night sweats. Anxiety. Insomnia. Brain fog. Menstrual cycle changes. Weight gain. Mood swings.

Every woman wants a good, reliable, and steady man. Yet wives tend to respond with angst whenever their strong man doesn’t seem to fully “understand” or “relate” to them. Does he even care? The truth is, it’s a mistake to take your husband’s silence as apathy or detachment. A man bears burdens the way he lifts weights: He’s not thinking, “How do I feel?” but “What am I carrying?” A man doesn’t think, feel, or cry like a woman does. And that’s exactly the point — God made men and women differently (Gen. 1:27). There’s great beauty in His design for manhood and womanhood which expresses His glory to the world!

Today we step into what happened when that safety disappeared.In Part 2 of this ongoing series, Queenie Denise Love gets real about the chapter of her story that lived in silence for a long time. The years after losing her grandmother's protection. The weight a child carries when the adults in the room fail her. The survival that felt like survival and escapism at the same time.This episode is for everyone who had to grow up too fast. For everyone who carried something heavy and didn't have the words for it yet. For everyone who looked around for protection and had to become their own.The Path to Here is more than a memoir. It's a mirror. And Part 2 is where things get real.

Perimenopause does not have to be the beginning of decline, but can instead be the start of your strongest chapter! In this inspiring success story, Louise, a leading expert for perimenopausal active women and runners, sits down with Jen, an everyday runner and mom who transformed her health, hormones, and body composition after years of frustration. Jen shares how anxiety, overtraining, fasting, and misinformation left her injured and stuck, despite doing everything she thought was “right.” The turning point came when she learned to fuel her body to build beautiful hormones and mitigate symptoms, apply specific targeted strength training, adjust her running, and work with her hormones instead of against them.Listeners will take away a powerful reminder that thriving in perimenopause does not require extreme diets or complicated protocols. Simple yet strategic consistent habits are often the most effective. This episode also highlights how community support, understanding your body's signals, and using whole foods strategically can improve energy, reduce inflammation, and restore confidence.If you feel discouraged by changing hormones, stubborn belly fat, being told there is nothing you can do about your genetic predispositions, or frustrating injuries that make you question your future as an active woman, Jen's story shows what is possible with the right approach, support, and mindset.RESOURCESLearn with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/ Take Injury Prevention for Women Runners 30+ or my Female Runners Guide to Support Optimal Ferritin Masterclasses mentioned here.Grab a free monthly goal planning calendar & learn how to use it here.Get $25 off Function's comprehensive labs here or use code LVALENTINE11 Check out FullScript here where you can see curated supplement picks & save 20% off.

In fact, she challenges the idea that ultra‑processed products should be called ‘food' at all. From social canteens that teach people to cook simple meals to zero percent business rates for greengrocers, the MasterChef winner tells Amol how she would reform Britain's food system. And she warns that the hospitality sector is facing a “bloodbath” after Chancellor Rachel Reeves increased employer national insurance contributions. A government spokesperson said: “We're backing hospitality with a £4.3bn support package to limit business rate bill rises, alongside capping Corporation Tax at 25%, cutting red tape and investing £1.5 billion to create 50,000 more apprentices and foundation apprenticeships.” “The fair and necessary decisions we made at this Budget and the last mean we can deliver on the country's priorities – cutting waiting lists, cutting debt and borrowing and cutting the cost of living.” TIMECODES (00:03:35) Why Thomasina believes ultra‑processed food shouldn't be considered “real” food (00:08:27) The role of supermarkets (00:17:14) School meals (00:21:37) The state of the UK hospitality sector (00:31:24) Why every high street needs a greengrocer (00:35:38) Cutting VAT for restaurants (00:39:37) Valuing well‑grown, high‑quality produce (00:41:45) Weight‑loss drugs (00:44:02) Tackling food waste (00:48:08) Amol's reflections GET IN TOUCH * WhatsApp: 0330 123 9480 * Email: radical@bbc.co.uk Episodes of Radical with Amol Rajan are released every Thursday and you can also watch them on BBC iPlayer: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/m002f1d0/radical-with-amol-rajan Amol Rajan is a presenter of the Today programme on BBC Radio 4.

The Thinklings Podcast — Episode 285 Is Theology Poetry? Welcome to Episode 285 of The Thinklings Podcast! In this episode, the Thinklings explore a provocative and beautiful question: Is theology poetry? Together, they consider how language, metaphor, imagination, and doctrine relate—asking whether theological truth is merely propositional or whether it also carries poetic weight and beauty. Thanks for tuning in to this week's conversation!

It's true - and it can quietly affect how you feel. Fibre plays a key role in keeping your digestion smooth, your gut balanced, and your body feeling regular. But hitting your daily fibre goals shouldn't be complicated. That's why I'm so excited about Fibre Flow from Organic Traditions - your new daily fibre and probiotic blend that makes gut health simple, smooth, and actually enjoyable. I've been using Fibre Flow for a few weeks now and I've really noticed how much lighter and more comfortable I feel day-to-day. My bowels definitely have a bit more pep in their step. Each single-serve stick delivers 8 grams of fibre from chicory root inulin and acacia fibre, plus probiotics for complete digestive support. Together, they help feed your good gut bacteria, support regularity, and keep things moving - gently. Fibre Flow dissolves instantly and tastes amazing. It is not thick, clumpy, or chalky like most fibre mixes. Choose Strawberry or Yuzu Lime for a light, refreshing flavour, or Unflavoured if you'd rather stir a fibre boost right into your coffee, latte, or smoothie. It's gluten-free, non-GMO, made without fillers or artificial ingredients - just clean, functional nutrition that fits your life. So, if you've been feeling bloated, irregular, or just off, this is your gentle, everyday way to get back in flow.

Send a textMedicine has built an entire mythology around weight as the root cause of disease, including diabetes,  sleep apnea, and arthritis. In this episode, I introduce you to three fictional patients whose stories expose the fatal flaws in this narrative. Through Madison's diabetes diagnosis, Mason's struggle with sleep apnea struggle, and Morgan's joint pain dismissal, I dismantle the logical fallacies that confuse association with causation. The truth is simple. Your weight didn't make you sick - but being blamed for it, denied treatment, and forced into weight cycling absolutely will. I challenge you to ask: if weight causes these conditions, why doesn't weight loss cure them? And more importantly, who profits when doctors prescribe weight loss instead of evidence-based care? Got a question for the next podcast? Let me know!

Weight gain isn't a willpower problem… It's a communication problem. In this episode, we explore LEAN, the peptide that helps the body re-establish normal metabolic signaling between the gut, brain, and fat cells. You'll learn how this yeast-derived peptide extends your own GLP-1 activity, balances appetite hormones, and supports fat oxidation using citrus polyphenols, L-carnitine, and CoQ10, all without stimulants or artificial suppression. We'll cover how LEAN works, what to expect in the first few weeks and months, and why pairing it with FIT helps preserve muscle and keep metabolism strong.   Hosted by Leanne Vogel.   Coaching with Leanne: https://www.healthfulpursuit.com/coaching    Bioactive Peptides: https://www.healthfulpursuit.com/make     Quiz - your personalized peptide stack: https://www.healthfulpursuit.com/quiz    Enjoy today's show.

A packed calendar is not always what causes stress. It's often the unfinished things. The decisions that are half-made. The projects that stall out and never officially end. The conversations you keep meaning to come back to.Those unfinished pieces tend to hover in the background. They surface when you are trying to relax, show up when you least expect them, and create pressure without offering any real direction. You are not actively working on them, but they are still working on you.We talk about unfinished things and how to avoid that dreaded feeling that they cause.

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

Today on the podcast, we share our general protocol for choosing the right weight for your lifts. Training isn't just about how hard a set feels at the moment. It's about whether the work you're doing creates enough stimulus to drive adaptation without creating so much fatigue that it interferes with future sessions. When the weight is too light, you aren't creating enough stimulus to promote change. When the weight is too heavy, form breaks down, reps turn sloppy, and the limiting factor becomes joint stress or low back fatigue instead of the target muscle. So what do you do? We have some general guidelines to help you figure out where your sweet spot is. In this episode, we discuss:Why Choosing the Right Starting Weight MattersHow to Determine What Weights to Start WithCommon Mistakes Beginners Make What is RPE and Reps in Reserve?Adjusting Weight Across Different Rep RangesHow to Progress Weight Safely Over TimeSigns You're Lifting Too Light or Too HeavyWant More?Join our Newsletter Online Nutrition Coaching Join our Facebook Group1:1 Fitness Coaching Get 3 Weeks of Nutrition Support for FreeFree Knee Pain Training GuideGet Hundreds of Movement Demos on Our Youtube Channel

Michael Easter is a New York Times bestselling author, UNLV professor, and the mind behind “Walk With Weight.” This conversation explores rucking, the evolutionary movement pattern humans are built for that modern fitness has largely overlooked. We discuss why it affects body composition differently, how GPS navigation impacts cognition, and why optimization culture can undermine resilience. Plus, he challenges my assumptions about comfort zones. Michael's insights are practical, contrarian, and rooted in science and experience. Enjoy!

Michael Easter returns for his third appearance, and this one feels like a relief: a simple way to get stronger, steadier, and more clear-headed without adding another complicated “wellness” project to your life. Ginny Yurich and Michael talk about the Two Percenter mindset, why walking is already powerful, and how adding a reasonable load can quietly upgrade nearly everything—muscle, bone density, core strength, endurance, mood, and even the way you move through everyday life (yes, even airports and errands). They also get practical about getting started with what you already own, why this works especially well for busy parents, and how time outside can turn down the mental noise and help you hear yourself again.

This is not a normal week. We are inside an eclipse corridor — between two eclipses — and what you choose now matters. In this episode, I break down the seed-planting energy, Mercury retrograde in Pisces, and the breakthrough warrior current building toward Friday. — Creation IX enrollment closes Feb 23 at 5pm. If you're feeling this week as a choice-point between two worlds, details here — We're sandwiched between two soul-shaking eclipses: New Moon Eclipse (Feb 17) Full Moon Eclipse (Mar 3) What you choose this week… what you speak, release, align to, and walk toward… will ripple out for months, maybe lifetimes. Let's walk it consciously. Let's make this week count. Let's choose from soul. Below are your 5 core themes, 3 big astrology dates, journal prompts + ritual guidance to support your path this week. 5 Core Themes of the Week 1. Choice Point Between Two Worlds You're at a fork in the road. One path loops you into old conditioning. The other… breaks you into freedom, into the extraordinary. Ask: Which world am I feeding with my attention? 2. Breakthrough Energy: Into the New You This week is about shattering upper limits — ancestral, personal, societal. You're being invited to become truer than ever before. 3. Shock into Sovereignty There's a shake-up here — not to scare, but to liberate. This is about reclaiming your direct, sovereign relationship with the divine, outside of any tradition or lineage. 4. Seeding the Future Every word, choice, and step this week is a seed. The Virgo Full Moon Eclipse (Mar 3) wants you to plant embodied, grounded soul seeds — not for the old life, but for the one you're really here to live. 5. Mercury Retrograde: Soul Re-Visioning Begins On Feb 25, Mercury goes retrograde in Pisces. This is no ordinary retrograde — it’s an invitation to reimagine, reconnect, and realign with your spirit's dream, not your ego's plan. Key Dates to Watch Wednesday, Feb 25 — Mercury Retrograde Begins (Pisces) Expect dreamier, non-linear insight. Ritual idea: Sit in meditation or free-write to ask: What limiting story am I ready to dissolve? Thursday, Feb 26 — Sun Conjunct North Node (square Black Moon Lilith) Soul purpose spotlighted. Feminine truth cannot be denied. Prompt: What must I honor about my feminine soul path, even if it doesn't “make sense”? Friday, Feb 27 — Mars Square Uranus Breakthrough energy peaks. Expect action, activation, forward momentum. Ritual: Move your body. Dance. Take one bold action that says “Yes” to your new life. Journal Prompts Where am I planting seeds — in the old world or the new? What part of me is ready to awaken… even if it scares me? What state of being is my soul longing to live from? Where have I still been outsourcing my power? What would it look like to become the artist of my own life? Rituals for the Week Meditate with your future self — the one living your soul path. Speak your truth aloud each morning. Let the words shape your day. Light a candle on Wednesday (Mercury Rx) and offer up one story or belief that's ready to dissolve. Write a soul letter to yourself on Friday — what you're breaking into, not just out of. Feel the Call to Go Deeper?

If you've ever felt like your body is fighting you no matter how “perfect” your nutrition or workouts are, this episode will feel like a deep exhale. Today, I'm sitting down with Soraya Rufener, one of our coaches at Vital Spark, to share the story behind the safety, trust, and results her clients feel from day one. Soraya isn't just highly credentialed as a registered nurse and functional health coach. She's lived through chronic dieting, body distrust, and the exhausting pressure to always “do more.” She started dieting at 13, spent years stuck in restriction cycles, and did everything diet culture promised would work. And yet, nothing was actually healing.In this conversation, we unpack why willpower wasn't the problem, how postpartum healing changed everything, and what rebuilding a body really requires physically, mentally, and emotionally. Soraya shares the moment she stopped punishing her body and learned how to support it instead. We talk about why healing is layered, why consistency matters more than intensity, and how nervous system safety changes outcomes. She also opens up about how her lived experience reshaped the way she coaches postpartum moms and high-achieving women today. Most importantly, we explore what she refuses to repeat from diet culture—and why coaching women differently matters. If you're exhausted, frustrated, or quietly wondering why nothing seems to work anymore, this episode will remind you that you're not broken.You're unsupported. Time Stamps: (1:17) Our Incredible Coach Soraya (6:02) Early Teen Soraya (9:17) Finding Bodybuilding (15:02) The Food Noise (17:09) Shifting To The Healing Phase (19:55) The Mental Side of Healing (22:47) 3 Kids In 4 Years and The Postpartum Journey (31:23) Our Bodies Aren't The Enemy (34:15) Where To Find Soraya---------------------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?
