This week's stories: *SNL Roasts the MAHA Movement Saturday Night Live took direct aim at RFK-adjacent anti-vaccine culture in a sketch that lampoons raw milk, bull semen, energy healers, and "natural immunity" rhetoric — and it landed with a mainstream audience. Dave breaks down what it means when fringe health narratives become national punchlines, and why being a biohacker means staying precise about what you're actually skeptical of.

This is a whole-food hack hiding in plain sight.

The next frontier of microbiome hacking is infrastructure, not species.

Dave addresses the "natural immunity" argument directly — and doesn't pull punches.

In this inspiring conversation, Darin sits down with Javant Benton, the creator behind the popular platform Healthy Vegan Eating, whose personal health crisis led him to completely transform his life through food. After facing pre-diabetes, hypertension, and even the possibility of lymphoma, Benton realized he had to radically change the trajectory of his health. What followed was a deep exploration into nutrition, whole foods, and the power of a plant-forward lifestyle. Through trial, error, and relentless curiosity, Benton lost 85 pounds and began developing creative plant-based recipes that replicate the comfort foods people love—without the refined sugars, oils, and processed ingredients that damage long-term health. In this episode, Benton shares how diet became the foundation of his healing, why most people struggle to adopt healthier eating habits, and how creating "bridge foods" can help people transition toward better health without feeling deprived.     What You'll Learn How a looming health crisis forced Benton to completely rethink his diet and lifestyle Why many people don't take their health seriously until a major wake-up call The confusion people face when trying to navigate conflicting nutrition advice How Benton lost 85 pounds and reversed major health risks through diet Why plant-based eating doesn't have to feel restrictive or boring The concept of "bridge foods" that help people transition to healthier diets How recreating comfort foods can help people adopt healthier habits Why cooking and preparing whole foods can become an act of self-care The cultural conditioning around meat consumption and protein myths How improving your diet often triggers improvements in other areas of life     Chapters 00:00:00 – The deeper mission behind SuperLife and creating a roadmap to true health 00:02:11 – Javon's upbringing and how environment shapes lifelong habits 00:03:17 – Why epigenetics proves your health is not predetermined 00:04:00 – The slow buildup of disease: weight gain, pre-diabetes, and hypertension 00:04:47 – The moment everything changed: a potential lymphoma diagnosis 00:06:02 – Why fear is often the catalyst for real transformation 00:06:39 – The hidden dangers of modern food: chemicals, plastics, and processed diets 00:08:24 – Searching for answers: confusion in the world of nutrition advice 00:09:16 – The realization that food—not just exercise—determines your outcome 00:10:10 – The turning point: discovering evidence-based nutrition 00:11:21 – Overcoming peer pressure and committing fully to change 00:12:19 – The truth about fish, toxins, and environmental contamination 00:13:14 – The importance of nutrient awareness on a fully plant-based diet 00:14:01 – Why Javon ultimately chose a fully vegan lifestyle 00:14:27 – The bigger issue: industrial pollution and bioaccumulation in food 00:16:54 – The reality of factory farming and toxic meat consumption 00:18:03 – Why "clean food" matters more than diet labels 00:18:43 – Becoming your own health advocate and taking ownership 00:19:54 – Losing 85 pounds and inspiring others through visible transformation 00:20:46 – The real barrier: people don't want to give up the foods they love 00:21:04 – The breakthrough idea: making unhealthy foods healthy 00:21:28 – Recreating comfort foods without refined sugar, oil, or processed ingredients 00:22:12 – The trial-and-error process behind building healthy recipes 00:22:49 – Eliminating excuses: making healthy eating accessible for everyone 00:23:12 – "Don't change what you eat—change how you make it" 00:24:30 – Why plant-based eating is far more diverse than people think 00:25:23 – The power of "bridging" instead of forcing drastic change 00:25:53 – Shocking moments when people couldn't tell plant-based from meat 00:26:52 – The biggest mistake in the health space: no middle ground 00:28:14 – Why meeting people where they are is the key to lasting change 00:30:28 – The truth: you don't need to go all-in to benefit from plants 00:31:14 – Why personalization matters more than strict diet rules 00:32:35 – The "middleman" realization: going straight to plant nutrients 00:33:07 – The ethical and emotional shift around food choices 00:34:27 – Why eating plants becomes a form of self-respect and alignment 00:35:06 – How nutrition improves self-esteem and overall life choices 00:35:18 – "You don't know how good it feels to feel good" 00:36:13 – The raw truth: change often starts from selfish survival 00:36:49 – Cultural conditioning around food and breaking free from it 00:37:23 – Why leading by example is more powerful than preaching 00:38:09 – You can't force awareness—people must be ready 00:39:09 – Why you don't have to wait for a health crisis to change 00:40:09 – Debunking extreme diet trends and the importance of balance 00:41:05 – The two-year journey of creating the cookbook 00:42:12 – The real mission: helping people, not selling books 00:43:08 – Free access to hundreds of recipes and removing barriers 00:44:10 – Why passion makes even the hardest work enjoyable 00:44:59 – Final message: meet yourself where you are and start there     Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

It's to meet people where they are and help them improve step by step. If we can recreate the foods people already love using whole, nourishing ingredients, we remove the barrier of deprivation—and suddenly living a healthier life becomes something people actually want to do.  

What if the habits that make you the most successful… look a little unhinged from the outside? In this solo episode, I'm sharing the wellness rituals I swear by, the ones that might seem extra, quirky, or unnecessary, but have completely changed my energy, focus, and ability to stay grounded when life is full. Because I've learned this the hard way: success isn't strategy. It's capacity. It's nervous system support that lets you hold more without cracking, lead without spiralling, and show up with clarity when the calendar is packed and the stakes are real.Inside, I'll walk you through what I actually do behind the scenes to protect my sleep, reduce decision fatigue, and make my days feel cleaner and calmer. I'll share a few of my most “unhinged” ones, plus the simple nightly reset that makes tomorrow easier before it even starts. If you've been doing all the “right” things and still feel tired, stretched, or one small inconvenience away from snapping, this episode will give you practical, permission-filled ideas you can start using immediately.Work with me: www.melissaambrosini.com/strategyHead to www.melissaambrosini.com/689 for the show notes.Join my weekly newsletter: www.melissaambrosini.com/newsletterGet my FREE ZenTone Meditation: www.melissaambrosini.com/zentoneFollow me on Instagram: @melissaambrosini Hosted on Acast.

Your thyroid controls your energy, your metabolism, your testosterone, your mood, and your ability to think clearly. Most doctors are testing it wrong and treating it wrong, and this episode tells you exactly what to do instead. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with McCall McPherson, a physician associate, TEDx speaker, and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic, Modern Weight Loss, and the advocacy platform Thyroid Nation. McPherson has been honored on the 2024 and 2025 Inc. 5000 lists and named a 2025 Top 500 Inc. Female Founder. She hosts the Modern Thyroid and Wellness podcast and built her entire practice around thyroid care after being failed by conventional medicine while managing her own hypothyroidism. She treats patients nationwide via telemedicine and has become one of the most trusted voices in functional medicine thyroid care. Dave and McCall expose why standard TSH-only testing catches just 1 to 2 percent of actual thyroid variation, why the medication most doctors prescribe (Synthroid/levothyroxine) fails a massive percentage of patients, and why T3 is the active hormone that mainstream medicine has been trained to fear without good reason. They also get into how fluoride in tap water, bromine in American wheat, mold exposure, dairy, gluten, and oxalates directly suppress thyroid function and drive autoimmunity. If you want to optimize your metabolism, protect your mitochondria, support brain optimization, and stop leaving your longevity on the table, thyroid is the first domino. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, human performance, anti-aging, functional medicine, supplements, sleep optimization, and using smarter not harder strategies to take control of your biology. You'll Learn: Why testing TSH alone misses thyroid dysfunction in the vast majority of people What a full thyroid panel actually includes and the optimal ranges for T4, T3, and reverse T3 Why T4-only medications like Synthroid fail and what works better How low thyroid directly tanks testosterone and libido in both men and women The environmental triggers destroying your thyroid, including fluoride, bromine, mold, and inflammatory foods How Hashimoto's connects to broader autoimmune risk and what drives it into remission Why kids are being misdiagnosed with ADHD when the real issue is hypothyroidism The supplements and cofactors (selenium, zinc, magnesium, ashwagandha, tyrosine) that support thyroid activation How thyroid optimization connects to metabolism, dementia prevention, cardiovascular health, and economic outcomes When to use T3 only vs. a T3/T4 combination, and how to know if your dose is off Thank you to our sponsors!

We are living in a moment where the language of self-care is everywhere. Protect your peace. Take a break. Treat yourself. But beneath the bubble baths and wellness rituals, something deeper is breaking down. People are absorbing quiet but powerful lies that they are useless, replaceable, or fundamentally unimportant. This week on Win Today, journalist and bestselling author Jennifer Breheny Wallace joins us to examine what she calls the modern crisis of "mattering." Drawing from extensive research and deeply human stories, Jennifer explains why the need to feel valued and to know that we add value is not optional—it is a core human need. When that need goes unmet, the consequences show up everywhere: fragile self-esteem, burnout, toxic achievement culture, and a constant search for validation that never quite satisfies. We explore why self-esteem alone cannot sustain a healthy identity, how success-driven cultures quietly erode a sense of worth, and why the hyper-visible world of social media often produces the opposite of real connection. Jennifer also introduces the concept of a "mattering core"—the conditions that help people know they are valued and capable of contributing value to others. When those elements are present, resilience grows. When they disappear, people begin to doubt their place in the world. If you've ever felt the pressure to prove your worth, if success has started to feel strangely empty, or if you've wondered why validation never seems to last, this conversation will help reframe what human flourishing actually requires. Guest Bio Jennifer Breheny Wallace is an acclaimed journalist and bestselling author whose work focuses on the intersection of mental health, achievement culture, and human flourishing. She is the author of Mattering: How to Create a Life of Meaning, Empathy, and Impact, a groundbreaking exploration of why the human need to feel valued and to add value is essential to well-being. Jennifer's writing has appeared in outlets including The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post, where she examines how modern pressures around success and validation shape the mental health of both adults and young people. Through her reporting and research, she helps readers understand how restoring a sense of mattering can strengthen resilience, deepen relationships, and restore purpose in an achievement-driven world.

Today, Heather Creekmore explores the concept of sustainability in our approach to weight loss, health, and spiritual growth. She unpacks how our cultural obsession with quick fixes and urgent physical transformation is often driven by fear, impatience, and even greed—rather than lasting, loving stewardship of our bodies. Heather Creekmore shares her own experiences with unsustainable health practices, lessons learned through her journey, and why so many common diet strategies fizzle out in the long run. She encourages listeners to shift focus toward habits that will support lifelong health—mentally, physically, and spiritually—rather than falling for every “latest trend” diet that comes along. Key topics in this episode: What does true sustainability look like in health and weight loss? Why rapid body change can often signal unsustainable and unhealthy patterns The dangers of fear, urgency, greed, and lust driving our self-care choices How to align your goals with patience, love, and long-term thinking Questions to ask yourself: Is this habit something I can keep up for life? How to invite God into your health and wellness decisions rather than just following the cultural noise Take the Next Step: Join the 40 Day Journey! Are you ready to rethink your approach and start building sustainable, God-honoring habits around your body image and health?

Harvard-trained psychiatrist Dr. Georgia Ede is the author of "Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind: A Powerful Plan to Improve Mood, Overcome Anxiety, and Protect Memory for a Lifetime of Optimal Mental Health." She links diet to the mental health crisis and dementia risk. Ede explains that conventional psychiatric training ignored nutrition, and she later incorporated dietary strategies alongside medication and psychotherapy after personal health experiences. She emphasizes focusing on metabolic and nutritional quality—especially stabilizing blood sugar and insulin—rather than simplistic plant-vs-animal messaging. She argues some animal foods are needed for brain nutrients like B12 and EPA/DHA. She discusses ketogenic diets as a way to lower insulin, produce ketones, improve brain energy, and reduce inflammation, citing case reports and a study of hospitalized patients where many improved and 44% reached remission. She critiques nutrition epidemiology as unreliable and outlines three “quiet” dietary tiers: whole-food low-glycemic, ketogenic, and carnivore, plus practical issues like electrolytes and gradual transition.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Harvard-trained psychiatrist Dr. Georgia Ede, author of "Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind: A Powerful Plan to Improve Mood, Overcome Anxiety, and Protect Memory for a Lifetime of Optimal Mental Health."

What if a glowing pyramid sitting in your living room could restructure your biology, compress decades of meditation into minutes, and shift your brain into an altered state without drugs, breathwork, or effort? This episode reveals the science and experience behind one of the most unusual biohacking technologies Host Dave Asprey has ever encountered. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -Get $250 off from The Light System by using code ‘daveasprey' at: https://www.thelightsystems.com/ Jason Shurka is an author, philanthropist, and founder of Unified Healing, a global network spanning 55 countries and hundreds of wellness centers worldwide. He has written five books on health, consciousness, and human performance, and serves as the driving force behind The Light System, a technology now joined with the Gaia Network. Shurka has spent years documenting firsthand results from people around the world, making him one of the most credible independent voices on emerging light-based healing technologies. Dave Asprey and Jason Shurka break down exactly how The Light System uses full spectrum biophotonic light and encoded affirmations to create a coherent energy field that the body synchronizes with at a cellular level. They explore how this technology targets the molecular structure of water in your body, increases cellular electrical conductivity by up to 80 percent in under an hour, and creates the conditions your mitochondria need to produce more energy, accelerate recovery, and trigger deep self healing. You will learn why your body is already a light based organism, how biophotons drive biological communication at the cellular level, and why the geometry of a pyramid amplifies these effects in ways that flat screen technology cannot replicate. They also dig into the nature of consciousness, the ego as a biological operating system, and why the most powerful biohacking interventions are often the ones that work below the threshold of conscious awareness. You will Learn: Why cellular electrical conductivity increases by 80 percent after one hour of exposure to The Light System How encoded light affirmations restructure the molecular formation of water in your body without conscious effort What biophotons are and why your mitochondria, gut bacteria, and DNA are already producing and receiving them How full spectrum visible light maps directly onto the body's energy centers and organ systems Why the metamatrix font used in The Light System produces stronger biological effects than standard text How this technology was invented by a programmer combining transcendental meditation with software development What happens to your brain state when you stare at encoded light and why it resembles deep meditation without the effort How geometry, specifically the pyramid shape, amplifies photonic output and room coverage Why altered states accessed through light may be one of the most underexplored frontiers in brain optimization and neuroplasticity How to use The Light System for sleep optimization, pain relief, and cellular recovery Thank you to our sponsors!

On today's episode, I'm joined by Rea Ann Silva, the celebrity makeup artist and founder of Beautyblender, to talk about how a problem she faced on set turned into one of the most iconic tools in beauty. Rea Ann shares her journey from growing up in the Los Angeles area in a hardworking family to building a career as a professional makeup artist, and how the shift to high-definition television forced artists to completely rethink complexion and application techniques. We dive into the origin story of the Beautyblender, how she created the first sponge to achieve seamless, airbrushed skin without heavy makeup, and how the product spread organically through the pro makeup community long before social media. She also opens up about navigating early copycats, staying relevant in a competitive industry, and what it takes to build a product with true longevity. If you're interested in entrepreneurship, innovation, and the behind-the-scenes story of a beauty product that changed the industry, this episode is packed with insights. Enjoy!

On episode 738 of the 40+ Fitness Podcast, host Coach Allan is joined by urologic oncology expert Dr. Nitin Yerram to shed light on a topic that hits especially close to home—kidney cancer. As Coach Allan himself recovers from a recent radical nephrectomy, he shares his own journey, making this conversation both timely and deeply personal. Together, they dive into why kidney cancer is being diagnosed at younger ages, the often subtle signs and symptoms to watch out for, and the realities of detection—including why blood in the urine is a red flag that can't be ignored. Dr. Yerram unpacks what to expect from a diagnosis, clarifies the risks and treatment options, and provides actionable advice on lifestyle and prevention. This episode isn't just for those facing a diagnosis—it's a must-listen for anyone wanting to be proactive about their health.

Fatigue, brain fog, hormone imbalance, and low energy are often blamed on perimenopause, stress, or getting older. But what if something in your daily routine is quietly accelerating how you feel and age? Most women focus on diet and supplements to support metabolism, gut health, and hormone balance, but rarely consider what they're putting on their skin. The average woman uses 10–12 personal care products every day, exposing herself to over 160 different chemicals. Because your skin absorbs what you apply, these ingredients can enter the bloodstream and potentially impact hormones, inflammation, energy levels, and overall health. In this episode, I talk with longevity researcher Brian Vaszily about how toxins in personal care products may influence aging, hormone balance, and overall wellness, and why becoming aware of these exposures can make a big difference in how you feel. Key Points from the Episode • The surprising way toxins in skincare and cosmetics may affect hormone balance, fatigue, and inflammation. • Why your skin acts as an absorption pathway, meaning what you put on your body matters just as much as what you eat. • How greenwashing in the beauty industry can make products appear clean or natural when they're not. • Powerful plant compounds that may help support collagen, elastin, and healthy aging without synthetic chemicals. When women start experiencing fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, or hormone shifts, they often focus only on food or supplements. But everyday exposures—like the products we apply to our skin—can also influence metabolism, hormone balance, and overall health. Understanding how toxins, skin absorption, and misleading product labels work can help you make better choices that support healthy aging, energy, and long-term wellness. Tune in to hear the full conversation and learn what to look for when choosing products that truly support your health.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Bret Scher, medical director of the Coalition for Metabolic Health.

Dr. Bret Scher, medical director of the Coalition for Metabolic Health, discusses making metabolic health the foundation of medicine amid rising obesity and type 2 diabetes and reports that 93% of Americans have suboptimal metabolic health. Scher defines metabolic health using markers including glucose, insulin, triglycerides, HDL, blood pressure, and waist size, and cites evidence linking insulin resistance to heart disease, stroke, cancer, psychiatric illness, and other complications. They discuss simple self- and lab-assessments (waist-to-height ratio, fasting insulin with glucose/HOMA-IR, triglyceride-to-HDL ratio, CGMs). Scher critiques the Eat Lancet report for assuming one optimal diet, reliance on low-quality nutrition epidemiology, potential nutrient shortfalls, and environmental oversimplification, while supporting newer dietary guidelines that allow lower-carb approaches. Part two covers contradictory nutrition studies, distinctions between low-carb and ketogenic diets, emerging “metabolic psychiatry” and ketogenic therapy for mental illness and cognitive decline, limits and rebound risks of GLP-1 drugs, and Coalition efforts to improve school food and influence policy.

Many people start their anxiety healing journey with talk therapy: learning their thoughts, understanding their patterns, and gaining insight into why they feel the way they do. But sometimes… insight isn't enough. You understand your anxiety. You know the tools. And yet your body still reacts like you're in danger. In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Rebekah Ballagh, counsellor, nervous system coach, somatic practitioner, and founder of Journey to Wellness, to explore what happens when cognitive approaches alone don't reach the deeper layers of anxiety. Rebekah shares her personal journey through anxiety, panic attacks, and postnatal depression and how discovering somatic work, nervous system regulation, and parts work transformed the way she understands healing. Together we unpack why anxiety isn't just a thinking problem. It's a body-based survival response and how learning to work with the nervous system can unlock real change. In this episode we explore: Why traditional talk therapy sometimes isn't enough to shift anxiety patterns How panic attacks can become encoded through experiences of pressure, scrutiny, and fear of being seen The difference between ordinary anxiety and the fear of anxiety itself Why avoidance strengthens anxiety and how gentle exposure helps rewrite fear responses The role of memory reconsolidation in healing panic and anxiety Somatic tools for working with nervous system activation in real time Rebekah's “Meet & Complete” approach to responding to anxiety in the body How parts work helps us understand anxiety as a protective part of ourselves The “Three C's” of anxiety: certainty, comfort, and control Why self-compassion can feel uncomfortable at first — and how to slowly build it A powerful reminder from this conversation: There are no broken parts of you. The patterns in your nervous system were created for a reason and with the right support and understanding, they can be updated.

This week on Fishing Without Bait, we continue our deeply moving conversation with returning guest Emily. In this episode, Emily shares the intense and emotional journey following her daughter McKenna's sudden medical crisis. What began as a normal day quickly turned into a life-threatening situation involving emergency surgery, strokes, and unimaginable uncertainty. Emily walks us through the overwhelming decisions, the devastating prognosis she was given, and the moments that tested her strength like never before. Despite facing the possibility of losing her child, Emily found herself holding onto even the smallest signs of hope — a breath over a ventilator, a slight movement, a reason to keep going. She reflects on the emotional toll, the fear of the unknown, and how she navigated anxiety, trauma, and the temptation of relapse during the darkest moments. This episode is a powerful testament to resilience, faith, and the importance of support systems when life changes in an instant. This is Part 2 of our conversation with Emily.

Can technology finally fix our nutrition struggles — or is it just adding more noise? We dive into why calorie trackers, wearables, and AI-powered diet tools consistently miss the mark, and discover the surprisingly simple, old-school method that actually gives you accurate, personalized results without any of them.In two powerful conversations with EC Synkowski, we explore why the friction of weighing and measuring your food isn't a bug — it's the feature that builds real awareness and lasting change. Learn why the path to dietary freedom runs straight through the inconvenience most of us are trying to avoid, and how your own weight trend is a more reliable guide than any app or algorithm.

Does it ever feel like everything in your life is all mixed up (finances, health, discipline, etc.)? Most agents focus on moving from a state of “dis-ease” to “wellness,” but I'll tell you, wellness isn't where you want to be. Greatness is achievable, and in this Mindset Monday, I'll let you know what it takes to get there. 

In this episode, I'm joined by best-selling author, kenote speaker, and presence expert, Light Watkins to discuss living more in the moment, releasing attachment to conventional goal setting, and defining success as presence and gratitude rather than comfort or material markers. Drawing from his book The Year You Transform and a yearlong program of seven-day challenges, he explains the “tortoise approach” to personal growth: small, consistent actions that fit real life, build self-trust, and reduce nervous-system strain. We explore choosing manageable discomfort, designing environments to avoid self-sabotage, and how radical accountability can provide ultimate motivation for self improvement to help you accomplish your goals.Chapters:00:00 Accountability Check Hack00:17 Nomad Life Update01:45 Gratitude for Presence04:46 Success vs Comfort Trap06:29 Choose Small Discomforts09:14 Tortoise Approach Basics11:06 Habit Stacking Pushups13:09 Why Seven Days Works15:26 Discipline Blind Spots20:01 Outside Advice and Validation23:01 Sponsor Break Timeline25:21 No Complaining Challenge27:48 Complaints to Compliments29:23 Curiosity Over Conflict29:49 Meditation For Busy Minds31:11 Mind As An Ally33:58 Pro Attitude Mindset36:56 Spiritual Warrior Lessons37:46 Sponsor Manuka Honey39:59 Redefining Success43:11 Parenting By Example44:14 Whats My Homework49:03 Trusting Quiet Presence53:45 Seagull Momentum Metaphor55:13 Closing Reflections--Connect with Light Watkins:Website: https://www.lightwatkins.com/YouTube: ⁨@LightWatkins⁩Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lightwatkinsLatest book: https://theyearyoutransform.com/Connect with Gabby Reece:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gabbyreece/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gabbyreeceofficialWebsite: https://gabriellereece.com--Produced by Dear Media.Follow Dear Media:Listen: https://dearmedia.com/shows/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dearmediastudio/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dearmediaLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/dear-mediaShop Dear Media:https://shop.dearmedia.com/About Dear Media:Dear Media is the largest podcast network focused on amplifying women's voices and audiences.

I'll be honest, this episode felt a little different to record - a little exciting, and a little nerve-wracking. Because instead of focusing on the usual physical side of your hormones, I'm going deeper into something we don't talk about as often: the emotional and especially spiritual roots behind symptoms like PMS, hormone imbalance, and low libido.I talk a lot about food, minerals, gut health, and detox on this podcast. And those things matter. But sometimes the reason symptoms linger isn't just physical. Our health is deeply connected to the emotions we carry. From subtle victim-mindset patterns to long-held (shame-filled) beliefs about our bodies, sexuality, and identity as women, these patterns can keep our nervous system in stress mode and influence how our bodies function.In this episode, you'll hear about:The mindset patterns many high-functioning women fall into without realizing itA group of hidden emotions that can quietly show up as physical symptomsWhy prayer, reflection, and emotional healing can influence symptoms like PMS and libido more than we expectI also share a personal moment where prayer helped me recognize emotional roots I had been holding onto and how releasing them shifted what I felt in my body almost immediately.If you've never thought about your hormones through this lens before, this conversation may feel both surprising and liberating.Nourish Tracker - Discount code: HAPPILYHORMONALBook a FREE Hormone Strategy Call with meGrab your Happily Hormonal Quick Start GuideNEED HELP FIXING YOUR HORMONES?

SummaryIn the latest episode of the Startup Junkies podcast, hosts Daniel Koonce and Grant Boston sit down with real estate mogul Ari Rastegar, founder and CEO of Rastegar Capital, to discuss entrepreneurship, investing, and the value of failure. Calling in from Austin, Texas, Ari Rastegar shares his journey from law school student to head of a multi-billion dollar real estate firm, including the pivotal moments, such as a multi-million dollar entertainment company undone by a freak ice storm.Throughout the episode, Ari emphasizes the importance of relentless energy, expansive learning, and the humility to embrace setbacks. He encourages would-be entrepreneurs to "learn before you do anything," pushing listeners to leverage the abundance of resources available today, from podcasts to YouTube, before risking their own or others' capital. He also highlights how failures can be one's greatest teachers, sharing stories from his own career and the insights they provided about planning for the “unplannable.”Notably, Ari discusses the deep importance of health—mental, physical, and spiritual—for sustaining long-term success. He suggests that taking care of oneself is the essential first step to building impactful teams, businesses, and communities.For anyone navigating the rollercoaster of startup life, this episode serves as both a playbook and a pep talk, packed with actionable advice and candid wisdom from someone who has truly failed forward.

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Dr. Suelyn Hall. The two talk about breaking barriers as a woman in the male-dominated field of urology, the importance of preventive and functional medicine, and how Dr. Hall's company, Quantum Health and Wellness Center, is redefining patient care with a holistic, personalized approach. In this episode, we discuss: How Quantum Health and Wellness Center integrates hormone balancing, nutrition, psychology, massage, personal training, float therapy, and stress reduction to address cortisol, thyroid, sex hormones, and overall mental and physical health. What fueled her decision to become a urologist despite being told as a Black woman that urology was a "white male–dominated field" with almost no women, and how that resistance only strengthened her determination. When losing three friends to colon cancer before age 45 made her realize traditional, reactive medicine wasn't enough and inspired her pivot into functional medicine, prevention, anti-aging, and truly listening to patients. Why hormones matter long before menopause (and for men in andropause too), from fatigue and poor sleep to libido, bone strength, heart health, cognition, and even how we communicate and connect in relationships. How moving from hospital systems to entrepreneurship forced Suelyn to manage business stress, staffing, and operations, yet also gave her the freedom to spend 45–60 minutes per patient instead of the standard 10–15, and why being truly heard is at the heart of good medicine. Suelyn Hall, M.D. Urologist, Founder of Quantum Health and Wellness Center, Author of How To Get A-HEAD Dr. Suelyn Hall, M.D., is a trailblazing urologist, author, and advocate for holistic wellness. Born and raised in Jamaica, Dr. Hall grew up in a family that instilled in her the values of perseverance, ambition, and self-expression. Her early academic achievements included graduating salutatorian from Miami Southridge High School, securing a full scholarship to the University of Miami, and later earning her medical degree from New York Medical College. As one of the first 50 female urologists in the United States, Dr. Hall has spent decades excelling in a male-dominated field, where she became known for her medical and surgical expertise, compassionate patient care, and dedication to pushing boundaries.

Is aging an inevitable decline, or just a "repair backlog" your body hasn't cleared yet?. In this episode, Dave breaks down the 2016 Nobel Prize-winning science of autophagy—the body's internal recycling system discovered by Dr. Yoshinori Ohsumi.Most people are stuck in a state of "biological debt," where cellular junk piles up like trash in a factory, leading to brain fog, fatigue, and chronic inflammation. Standard 16-hour fasts aren't enough to reach the deep-cleaning phase. You will learn the exact 3-day protocol to trigger a "Deep Reset," where ketones peak, inflammation falls, and stem cells wake up to rebuild your immune system from scratch.Join my FREE Fasting Challenge: https://daveasprey.com/fast-this-way-challenge/Timestamps:00:00 - The Anti-Aging Switch01:30 - Chronological vs. Biological Age02:32 - How Aging Works at the Cellular Level04:58 - 43 Ways to Upgrade Your Mitochondria07:37 - What Is Autophagy09:17 - The Stages of Fasting10:46 - What Happens During a 3-Day Fast13:04 - How to Fast Correctly14:42 - Breaking the Fast15:58 - The Power of SubtractionThank you to our sponsors!-KILLSwitch | If you're ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/ and use code DAVE for 20% off-Join My Low-Oxalate 30-Day Challenge: https://daveasprey.com/2026-low-ox-reset/Connect with Dave Asprey!Website: https://daveasprey.comTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@daveaspreyofficialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dave.asprey/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Daveaspreyofficial/X: https://x.com/daveaspreyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/daveaspreybprThe Human Upgrade Podcast: https://www.instagram.com/TheHumanUpgradePodcast/ https://m.facebook.com/Thehumanupgrade/Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com/DAVE15Dave Asprey's BEYOND Conference: https://beyondconference.com/Dave Asprey's New Book - Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/Dave's favorite supplements: https://www.shopsuppgradelabs.com/discount/DAVE15Upgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com40 Years of Zen: https://40yearsofzen.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Once I started to connect the dots that the sympathetic nervous system plays a prominent role in food impulses and behaviors, I began teaching everyone I work with how to identify when their sympathetic nervous system is activated. This isn't something we're often taught as a kid and would be a game changer to learn earlier on in life. You may just be learning this language of your body and nervous system now though and feel exhausted from living in sympathetic nervous system dominance. And your bodily depletion makes so much sense. In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Scott Sherr, Board Certified Internal Medicine Physician, about: Understanding the sympathetic nervous system The Sympathetic Spiral of DoomMitochondrial health and its impactThe connection between trauma and eating behaviorsIntegrating nutrition in trauma workAddressing long term health challengesPractical steps to support your mitochondrial health for improved regulation and metabolic signalingYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/get-unstuck-from-a-sympathetic-statePlease remember that your food behaviors can be bodily communication of your nervous system state. If you have any insights from this episode, email me anytime, and talk to you more soon! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Dr. Scott:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drscottsherr/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/troscriptions/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/onebasehealth/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@troscriptions Website: https://drscottsherr.com/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.benso...

Wellness is louder than ever, but what actually matters when it comes to ageing well? In this episode, I'm joined by Felicity Evans, founder of Imbibe, to cut through the noise around gut health, collagen, stress and hormones. We unpack the biggest myths in wellness, what women in their 20s and 30s should focus on to future proof their health, and the foundational steps that matter before reaching for supplements. This is a grounded conversation about beauty from within, longevity, and supporting your body in a way that actually lasts.

The inside (called the nucleus pulposus) is soft and fluid-filled. The outside is tougher.When you're injured — car accident, lifting injury, repetitive strain — the joint can shift. When that joint stops moving properly:The disc dehydratesIt bulges or herniatesNerves become irritatedPain beginsHere's the critical part most people don't realize:

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:     Mohamed: Good day Dr.Cabral. Thoughts on high cholesterol support. I know you covered this topic a lot but anything new that comes to mind? And what kind or protocol would you run over 2-3 months? I know omega3s are great. A good multi. But any others (food also).. in addition to diet improvement. Thanks!      Tom: Thoughts on sinus support.. itchiness both sides (left side a bit more). Would citridical drops help and how would I apply it on the nostrils, currently on Amlodipine and grapefruit is contraindicated. So is there another thing I could try. Thanks for all that you do.      Svetlana: Hello, Dr. Cabral. Have you thought about writing a children's wellness book based on your teachings and the distress protocol? Mostly on the middle school level, since high school kids could comprehend the rain barrel effect. It would be great to have it for a homeschool science class and just in general for all the kids to start learning about how to take care of their body. I'm looking for a science/wellness/whole body and mind book that would be engaging for an 11 year old, but not full or standard allopathic recommendations. Do you know of one you could recommend? A lot of the children's books on the market aren't exactly what you have to offer. Thank you for all that you do.      Jill: Thanks Dr. Cabral for your accessibility in answering questions! Looking for your feedback on Proteolytic Enzymes. I began taking recently at the recommended dose and began having severe headaches that stretched into my lower neck and left shoulder. I thought it might be an allergic reaction or side effect. I stopped for a week and then began again with just 1 capsule a day and seem to tolerate that just fine. Have you seen reactions like this and do you think its ok for me to continue and/or even ramp up at some point and take the full dose?       Lori: Hello Dr. Cabral ~ I listen to your podcast every day, and appreciate you sharing your knowledge and feedback! I am a 59-year-old post-menopausal female, a 27-year Stage 4 Metastatic Melanoma survivor (my recurrence of melanoma occurred when I was pregnant at the age of 31). My mother passed at the age of 36 from pancreatic cancer; my dad passed at the age of 51 from lung cancer. I vist my dermatologist twice per year for skin checks, I avoid the sun, wear sunscreen every day. I am a non-smoker, I exercise daily and I am in good health. Can you tell me if there are tests I should have performed regularly that will indicate the health of my pancreas and lungs? Is that something I should be concerned with? Are there other tests and/or indicators I should be aware of?      Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!      - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3690 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Pediatrician and certified coach Jessie Mahoney discusses her article "Why physician wellness programs must evolve beyond institutions." Jessie reflects on her seventeen years leading in-house wellness initiatives and argues that while institutional programs provide legitimacy, they are ultimately insufficient for deep healing. She explains that true recovery requires stepping away from the very environments that cause distress to find spaces free from agendas and evaluation. The conversation highlights the unique power of independent, physician-led programs that prioritize mindfulness, somatic healing, and connection with nature. Jessie contends that physicians cannot transform the health care system if they are barely surviving within it, making external wellness spaces not a luxury, but a foundational necessity for sustaining the profession.

This week's stories: Smartphone App Catches What Sleep Trackers Miss A 2026 trial found that suvorexant, a popular prescription sleep drug, improves sleep quality scores — but worsens morning alertness and cognitive function while improving afternoon and evening performance. The study used a smartphone app to pulse users throughout the day, revealing a split-time-of-day signal that traditional sleep scales miss entirely. Optimizing your sleep dashboard and optimizing your waking performance are not the same thing. Sources: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/suvorexant-ema-trial-2026 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/suvorexant-daytime-performance Bats Are Breaking the Telomere Model A 2026 bioRxiv preprint on the tropical bat species Molossus molossus found that these animals live unusually long lives with almost no telomere shortening — challenging the assumption that telomere erosion is a universal driver of mammalian aging. Instead, the bats maintain genome integrity through superior DNA repair and oxidative stress management driven by the metabolic demands of flight. Telomere length may be a symptom, not the cause — and the longevity industry has been measuring the wrong thing. Sources: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/molossus-molossus-telomere-longevity-2026 https://www.nature.com/articles/telomere-bat-aging-2026 The Fenugreek Hack That Cuts Glucose Spikes by Up to 20% Soaking fenugreek seeds overnight and consuming them before meals has been shown across multiple small human trials to reduce fasting glucose and post-meal glucose spikes by 5 to 20 percent. The mechanism is dual — soluble galactomannan fibers slow carbohydrate absorption while bioactive compounds improve insulin receptor sensitivity in muscle and liver. It's a cheap, food-grade, CGM-trackable lever that most people have never tried.

Arterial stiffness improved by 1.18 meters per second — equivalent to reversing roughly a decade of age-related decline. Blood pressure dropped 6.1 millimeters of mercury, outperforming aerobic exercise, HIIT, the DASH diet, omega-3s, and magnesium in head-to-head comparisons.

CO binds to hemoglobin more tightly than oxygen, quietly starving your brain, heart, and muscles while producing symptoms that mimic fatigue, brain fog, and the flu. The CDC estimates more than 400 Americans die from unintentional CO poisoning every year — and most of them never saw it coming.

The mechanism appears to be a mixed-fuel training effect: the liver and muscle learn to manage glucose and fat concurrently when both are present during high metabolic demand. Context changes the calculus, and the workout itself may be the variable that flips the equation.

In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, Darin sits down with transformational coach and author Danny Morel, a man who walked away from a billion-dollar real estate empire in pursuit of truth. What begins as a conversation about spirituality quickly turns into a raw exploration of trauma, identity, plant medicine, and the courage it takes to truly face yourself. Danny shares how the death of his mother shattered the illusion of external success and forced him into a radical journey inward, one that ultimately reshaped his entire life. Together, Darin and Danny explore the nature of the ego, the healing of parental wounds, the role of plant medicine, and why the answers we seek are not out in the world, but within us.     What You'll Learn Why Danny Morel walked away from massive financial success to pursue truth and self-discovery How unresolved relationships with our parents shape our identity, beliefs, and emotional patterns Why many spiritual teachings mistakenly frame the ego as something to destroy rather than understand The powerful connection between childhood emotional wounds and adult behavior Why plant medicines like ayahuasca, mushrooms, and cannabis can act as mirrors for inner healing How breathwork can create profound spiritual experiences without psychedelics Why nature and reconnecting with the land are essential for human healing How modern society conditions us to seek validation externally instead of trusting our inner wisdom The difference between success, validation, and true fulfillment Why awakening begins when we have the courage to face our deepest fears     Chapters 00:00:00 – Introduction to SuperLife and the mission of building a healthier, more conscious world 00:00:32 – Sponsor message: non-toxic cookware and reducing toxic exposure in everyday life 00:02:50 – Introducing Danny Morel: leaving a billion-dollar real estate empire to pursue truth 00:04:20 – Darin's spiritual awakening experiences and Native American ceremony in Boulder 00:06:16 – The wisdom of going inward instead of constantly seeking answers outside ourselves 00:08:13 – Truth vs belief: why genuine truth requires direct experience 00:09:16 – Danny recounts the moment his mother died and the existential questions it triggered 00:11:06 – Losing a parent and the strange way connection can deepen after death 00:12:00 – A powerful visualization exercise to heal your relationship with your parents 00:13:46 – Darin shares his own plant medicine journey and confronting deep physical pain 00:17:14 – The struggle with ego during psychedelic experiences 00:20:24 – Childhood emotional wounds and how they shape identity 00:22:40 – The connection between self-worth and the relationship with your mother 00:24:22 – Reframing the ego: seeing it as the "small self" instead of an enemy 00:25:02 – Sponsor break: cellular health and the science behind Fatty15 00:28:12 – The deeper spiritual journey of understanding the wounded inner child 00:30:01 – Why healing begins when we allow uncomfortable emotions to surface 00:31:10 – Danny invites Darin to his Awaken event and discusses transformational retreats 00:32:01 – The illusion of success: wealth, status, and social validation 00:33:54 – The question that changed Danny's life: "Are you actually happy?" 00:35:01 – Why many successful people are deeply wounded internally 00:36:11 – Facing fears, shame, and guilt in order to reclaim your authentic self 00:37:38 – Danny shares a profound ayahuasca ceremony experience 00:38:22 – Being forced to sit with yourself instead of escaping your inner pain 00:41:02 – The courage required to face your deepest fears 00:42:16 – Why taking the medicine when you don't want to is often the breakthrough moment 00:44:22 – The importance of proper guidance when working with plant medicine 00:45:45 – What to do if you don't have access to plant medicine ceremonies 00:47:07 – Practical starting points for self-healing 00:49:21 – Reconnecting with nature and grounding with the earth 00:51:11 – Releasing emotional baggage through grounding and energetic awareness 00:51:41 – The truth about meditation and why many people struggle with it 00:53:01 – Breathwork as a powerful portal to spiritual awakening 00:54:02 – Breath as the direct connection to life and consciousness 00:55:18 – Darin shares his own powerful breathwork experiences 00:56:48 – The intention behind Danny's book and guiding people inward 00:57:27 – Using cannabis intentionally for emotional and psychological insight 00:59:17 – Shadow work and early experiences with intentional cannabis use 01:01:21 – Questioning social conditioning around spirituality and plant medicine 01:02:20 – The deeper purpose of plant medicine in healing the psyche 01:03:46 – The hierarchy of plant medicines: cannabis, mushrooms, and ayahuasca 01:06:17 – Building a life dedicated to inner discovery and emotional truth 01:07:15 – The idea that the world mirrors our internal state 01:08:08 – How inner healing can dissolve division, conflict, and separation 01:09:44 – Darin shares his vision of creating a "SuperLife" for humanity 01:11:10 – Closing reflections and where to find Danny Morel's work     Thank You to Our Sponsors Our Place: Toxic-free, durable cookware that supports healthy cooking.

When we finally stop chasing validation, success, and approval outside of ourselves, and we turn inward to face the pain, the fear, and the truth we've been avoiding, that's when life begins to change. The more we heal our relationship with ourselves, the more the world around us transforms, because awakening isn't about fixing the world out there… it's about finally discovering who we really are in here.

What if the biggest barrier to your fitness isn't a lack of willpower — it's a set of hidden biases working against you? In this conversation with sports medicine physician Jordan Metzl, we uncover the science of motivation and why people who rarely miss a workout aren't more disciplined — they've just learned to lower their cost to act. Discover the knowledge-belief-emotion framework that transforms "I should" into "I'm doing this" and finally into "I'm crushing this."We explore why laziness is a myth, how curiosity is the most underrated motivational tool, and why science shows that roughly 60% of your health is determined not by your genes — but by the choices you make every day. Whether you're a coach trying to keep clients coming back or someone looking to reignite your own fire, this episode is your blueprint for building motivation that sustains itself.

As MS Awareness Month continues, Selma Blair's story underscores the resilience it takes to keep moving forward while living with multiple sclerosis. Blair, the actress known for Cruel Intentions, Legally Blonde and the Hellboy films, has become a leading voice in the MS community since publicly sharing her diagnosis in 2018. In this conversation from October 2025, Blair joins Hoda to discuss her lifelong health struggles, her relationship with her late mother, and the support she has found in her community, including from fellow stars Christina Applegate and Jamie-Lynn Sigler, who are navigating their own MS journeys.
