I've chosen our episode from November of 2019 on cockney rhyming slang. This is one of those silly episodes That's also packed with a lot of interesting information and I remember Chuck and I having fun making it So I hope you'll enjoy listening to it, too enjoy Welcome to stuff you should know production of I heart radio And welcome to the podcast I'm Josh Clark and there's Charles W. Chuck Bryant right there. There's Jerry Roland right there So that makes this stuff. You should know right Can't top that I was trying to think a way to say welcome to the podcast in cockney rhyming slang Can you make an attempt my I'm my brain is so broken right now. I can't even try. Okay, good good Well, welcome. It's a good good time to record a show You're gonna do some cockney in here, right? We want to offend as many Londoners as we can I don't know just just channel a little Dick Van Dyke. Oh You know Yeah, the American Doing a bad cockney accent. Well, I did recently rewatch the limey Yes Casey's for benefit. Yeah, the great great movie from Steven Soderbergh. Never seen it. It's awesome. Is it really? Yeah, I mean, I know it's like a classic and everybody loves it. But I mean, it's really that good Yeah, because a lot of people liked I don't know the hangover. I Like the hangover. Well, how would you how would you like the limey and the hangover same level? Yeah, they're the same movie almost. All right, it's weird. Well, then I've seen the hangover so I don't need to see the limey Lemmy's great and Terence stamp is Awesome, and it then uses some cockney rhyming slang and one great scene My big exposure to cockney rhyming slang is lock stock in two smoking barrels Snatch. Yeah, which I think are both directed by Guy Ritchie, right? Wasn't lock stock like his first attempt and snatch was the one that like Got him married to Madonna you a fan of his yeah, I mean as much as I Like his movies, I don't like him personally necessarily cuz he like hunts bore like a jackass does it like yeah No drunk with his friends in the most like disrespectful way of murdering a pig. I admit his movies But yeah, I do like his movie sounds like he's a creep, too I'm not gonna go on record saying that but Yeah, those movies are okay and then I guess what's his name Don Cheadle a little bit in Oceans 11 sure he did a little bit of that right and I mean like It's code to Americans. It's oh, there's like a criminal a British criminal, right? That's all that means these days Yeah, I think so in movies. It's definitely Like all of those are criminal right criminal people in the movies They're like, you know kind of slick cool criminals that wear leather coats and stuff like that Not dumb criminals that wear like football jerseys or anything like that. They're like, you know smooth criminals That's I think what I was looking for. Yeah, but This this idea of associating it with cockney is not necessarily associating it with criminals. It's more associated with like Lower class working class less educated definitely not the aristocracy over in Britain yeah, or the upper class sure and that by by speaking with a cockney accent or More to the point using cockney rhyming slang you could really differentiate yourself To as a point of pride, right? Like you were speaking like your group your in -group which was at the time cockney, right? But the big surprise to all this is it's really possible and even probable that it wasn't the cockney that came up with this Rhyming slang that it was somebody else altogether. Maybe who knows should we say what it is? No Not for the rest of the podcast cockney rhyming slang Wasn't even Very clearly defined in this piece. Okay, did you think it was? It's in there. Okay, you got to just kind of separate the wheat from the chaff So it is a two -word phrase and is a slang phrase Consisting of two words so far so good where the last word of that phrase rhymes with the original word and It can be and I think the best way to do this is just to throw out a few no. No keep describing Well, the two -word phrase it can be it can be a lot of things it can be a person's name It can be just something random can be a place could be a place. It could be a lot of things it can be anything Yeah, sure. I guess it can be But shall we illustrate it through? Well, there's a second part to it. Okay, the second part and this is very important the Two -word phrase that you're using to that where the second one rhymes with the word you're actually saying Yeah, the original word the original word. Thank you Usually has nothing to do with it. There's no metaphor. There's no connection. There's no Nothing, there's no there's no context to it It's supposed to just be random or in most cases. It is just random words right one of which rhymes with the word you're replacing and To further complicate things sure In a lot of cases and no one knows why sometimes this happens and sometimes it doesn't a lot of times that one of the words Of the two -word phrase is dropped. Yeah, and then you're just left with the one word Which doesn't even rhyme with the original word anymore, right? That's I mean, that's probably the best description of cockney rhyming slang anyone's ever given So I think we should illustrate it with a couple of examples. I pulled some from From something called the internet Here here's one the the tip and tete That's how long it took me to come up with that Tip and tete for internet, but in ten years, it'll just be called the tip I'm gonna log on to the tip governor So let's say your word was and this was in oceans 11 specifically trouble is the word that you're trying to say Cockney rhyming slang for trouble is Barney rubble awesome And so you would say you're making a bit of the bonnie rubble again, right when somebody that was kind of Who was that? Making a bit of bonnie rubble not the see I already did it wrong No, but I think you that's not like a real person to an American for sure. Oh, yeah Um, I can't I can't I'll shout it out. Later. Oh, man. I finally did a good one No, but it wasn't a cockney person, okay for Another example Queen They would use the term baked bean Look who's on TV. It's the baked bean And that's the Queen. I like that one or in the case of one that's been dropped What is Ed use here bees and honey? That one is not dropped for money. Okay, but which one was apples and pears right? Right, so you would say I'm gonna go up the apple and stairs Apples and pears. Oh, man Let me retake this everybody You would say I'm going to go up the apples and pears to go get my wallet to pay for this pizza Or something to that effect. Okay, but then over time people drop the pears And so now the word for stairs in cockney rhyming slang is just apples Which if you're just standing there on the outside like a normal American bloke sure, which by the way means person You have no idea why this person just called stairs apples You got what they were saying because the context is there you're going up the apples to get your wallet to pay for the pizza But why would you just say that did you did you hit your head? Is there something wrong with you? What's the problem? Why would you just call that apples? Yeah, that's why it's so confounding But the great thing about cockney rhyming slang and in particular the great thing about researching cockney rhyming slang is you learn How you get from apples to stairs and then it makes sense sometimes Yeah, that's true. It's not always. Yeah, sometimes there's It's not documented which ed points out is one of the problems sometimes you can draw the line the through line But because it's not documented and sometimes these things take years and years to morph into its final version right unless you unless you're you know on the What would you call street on the dole? No on the streets, then I wouldn't know but I don't know what streets is you can't just make stuff up like there's real words I'm the drums and beats So you're on the drums right, but they probably have a word for streets like that's the whole point You can't just make anything up, but the you could if it hasn't been taken yet sure Also, that's the other thing about cockney rhyming slang is it evolves right so old celebrities that that no one even knows about anymore Fall away to new celebrities whose name also rhyme with you know whatever word you're saying right? I thought you meant old celebrities who maybe used to talk this way like Michael Caine no He's never said any rhyming slang in his life. No of course you got to see the movie Alfie Maybe that's who it was it might have been Michael Caine. I'll take that Michael Caine. I think it was as a matter of fact Thank you, I'm glad you did it. Noel always says a good joke is to say Michael Caine in the correct accent say the words my cocaine And it sounds like Michael Caine saying it then it sounds like that the correct accent for Michael Caine all right say it my cocaine Well you just blew that one out of the water You Gotta set me up in the future Okay, well there's I've got it two ways now, man, okay, here's the thing my cocaine That's my cocaine That's pretty good Michael Caine. It is good. You're right. No. You just got to say it the right way and not like a robot Josh So here's that one of the things is sort of confounding if you want to look up a like a glossary and Say well, here's what I'm gonna. Do I'm gonna learn cockney rhyming slang so for my trip to England I'm really you know. I'm really in with everybody First of all bad idea yeah second of all it's it can be very localized Mm -hmm and the accents are all different Yeah, so even people in London sure who both who all use well people in London Do but the people who use cockney rhyming slang in London yeah might not even agree on what word is means What I'm just picturing all the people walking around England laughing their arses off. I can't wait to get to that one As we stumble through this um yeah, it had a really good Example of why there's no codification of the cockney rhyming slang He said that when people are creating a language especially informal ones like slang They don't write it all down quote dear diary referred to my house as a cat and mouse today because it rhymed We all had a good laugh might try. Just calling it cat tomorrow and see how it goes It is it sounds funny, but that's that's how it works stumbling across the diaries And here's the other thing too is there are cases where there is a little bit of a reflection of the original word and the example that it gives here is twist Yeah, like to call a woman a twist mm -hmm Which I don't know if that's derogatory or not or just some weird slang that no one uses anymore I don't think so although I don't know so yeah these are also the people who use the C word like it's nothing Man I can't wait to go back there Which we're gonna do soonish right? I'd love to do in 2020. Maybe yeah, all right So twist came from twist and twirl which meant girl which is They were talking about like dancing with a girl twisting and twirling in a nightclub Let's say so there is some connection in that one. Yeah, so girl and ended up becoming twist So that sort of makes sense there's another one called on your Todd After a guy named Todd Sloan and it means on your own Right and the thing is is like on your Todd it makes sense Sloan rhymes with own It doesn't have to have any connection, but that one actually does yeah Cuz Todd Sloan was a famous jockey in the 19th century like horse jockey. Yes, okay? What other kind is there disc jockeys? Oh, yeah, sure So his book his memoir was called Todd Sloan by himself Which is weird to refer to yourself in third person for your memoir Hmm, but there was a line in it that apparently East End East Enders in London like really picked up I was left alone by those. I never ceased to grieve for It's still like the idea of being alone or on your own Became synonymous with Todd Sloan his name just happened to rhyme with that So it's one of those rare ones where there is a connection to it and also rare Chuck in that This is a 19th century horse jockey and still today on your Todd is recognized as on your own Whereas a lot of people probably have no idea exactly who he is and when that happens That frequently that person gets moved out for potentially another celebrity or another word That's a little more understandable or recognized another new jockey two people today, right? Yeah exactly which can you name one? Nope? Nope Alright, maybe we should take a break and we'll talk about some of the other some other examples after this message In a world where modern technology is rapidly reshaping our day -to -day lives the new podcast Technically speaking an Intel podcast uncovers the remarkable ways tech is improving our livelihood across the globe brought to you by Ruby Studios from I heart media in partnership with Intel technically speaking is your passport to the forefront of AI's marvels in modern technology each episode will Take you on a riveting journey as you discover the awe -inspiring innovations of our modern world from game -changing innovations Revolutionizing early cancer detection to AI software that detects pests on crops that can be detrimental to seasonal yields tune in for Conversations that are shaping tomorrow today.

We talk all about the best advanced nutrition strategies to reduce inflammation and improve insulin sensitivity. There's a lot of things you can do if you are looking to lose weight, if you're looking to improve your blood sugar sensitivity. We know insulin resistance is at the root of all chronic inflammatory conditions, but there's a lot we can do from a nutrition perspective. We go through that in this interview. I talk a lot about intermittent fasting and how that helps improve mitochondrial function, helps improve blood sugar stability and turn on fat burning. We talk about how to improve your stomach acid, bile flow, pancreatic enzymes, so you can reduce the amount of endotoxins that are released from your gut and into your bloodstream that drive up inflammatory activity in your body. So this is a really powerful presentation showing you exactly what you need to do to stabilize your blood sugar, to burn fat for fuel and reduce inflammation. If you know anybody that's dealing with type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, perhaps they're overweight looking to lose weight or they're obese, please share this episode with them.

Hey everyone, welcome to the Reversing Type 2 Diabetes Summit. I'm your host, Dr. Beverly Yates, MD. It's my distinct privilege and honor to interview a wonderful colleague of mine, Dr. David Jockers. He's been a leader in many aspects of health and continues to help people have clarity about their health. One of the things that's so interesting as we do all the episodes here for the summit is I'm trying very consciously to give people different points of view and different aspects of what it takes for blood sugar success to be well. So with Dr. David Jockers, we're going to introduce him in just a moment here. He's a doctor of natural medicine and runs one of the most popular natural health websites online in drjockers .com and has gotten over a million views for monthly visitors and his work is really popular. It's been seen on shows like The Dr. Oz Show and Hallmark Home and Family. He's the author of the best -selling book, The Keto -Metabolic Breakthrough and also The Fasting Transformation. He's a world -renowned expert in the area of ketosis, fasting, brain health, inflammation and functional nutrition. He also hosts his popular Dr. Jockers Functional Nutrition podcast. Be sure to look up his work, check out what that he's offering. Dr. Jockers, welcome to our summit. Thanks so much, Dr. Beverly. Great to be on with you. Yeah. You know, I've really been excited for our talk because I think that there are so many ways in which people can eat and nourish themselves and some things are certainly more helpful or successful when it comes to blood sugar control and glycemic regulations than others. So with that in mind, let's dig in right away here. So please, if you would share with us your perspective here, what is inflammation and how does it develop? Yeah. Inflammation is just a natural process of healing. In fact, it's actually designed to help protect our body from some sort of chronic systemic infection and so, well, not chronic infection, but some sort of systemic acute infection from killing us quickly. And so I think we look at the history of mankind. More people have died from infections that got into our bloodstreams, bloodstreams spread throughout our body, went into major vital organs and killed us is what used to kill most of our ancestors. And so our body has created this inflammatory process to help protect against that. So the infection that gets in doesn't get into our lungs and cause pneumonia or our nervous system and cause meningitis. And so in order to do that, we created this inflammatory process to keep basically infection under control. And it's also part of the healing process. We break down damaged tissue and we try to remove that in order to build new healthy tissue. So for example, if we sprain our ankle, we're going to break down that tissue and try to rebuild new healthy tissue in that area. So inflammation itself is life saving. The issue is that it should be turned off when the appropriate area is healed. And so in our society, we have certain vectors that are turning up inflammation. For example, one is called leaky gut, right? So when somebody has leaky gut, there's damage, micro damage to the intestinal lining. And every time that person's eating food, particularly food that causes more gut irritation, they are further tearing that gut lining and they're not really allowing their body to heal properly. And therefore, they're spewing out bacteria and endotoxins into their bloodstream through that lining, through that hole. And that's driving up inflammation in the body because the body thinks that it's under attack from some sort of systemic infection or some sort of basically infectious process that could be life threatening. And so we've got to do what we can to get inflammation under control in our society. And so I think about it like a fire in a fireplace. You know, if the fire is on in the fireplace, it's great. It warms the house. You know, it creates a great environment, an ambiance. However, when we dump gasoline on the fire, right now it spreads on the walls and starts to burn our home. And obviously that's when it's a major issue. And so in our society, we have lifestyle habits that are dumping gasoline on the fire and causing us to burn up our home. And we just don't really understand it. We don't realize that's actually what we're doing to our body. And then we later, you know, after doing this for years and years and years, we get diagnosed with the chronic disease. But this is many years of chronic inflammation, damaging cells, tissues and organ systems of our body leading to, you know, that disease diagnosis. Absolutely. Absolutely. Thank you for laying that out so clearly. You know, it's so interesting in clinical work, sometimes it comes up. People are like, this just happened to me overnight, thinking that their body has attacked them or betrayed them and that their diagnosis has come on all of a sudden when in reality, nope, this was years in the making. So thank you so much for pointing that out for us. So anyone listening to this, if you have an inflammatory problem, please know. It took time for it to develop and it will take some time for it to heal. The good news is, if healing is possible, that it's likely to be a lot faster compared to the silent onset process. It's like too bad. It would be great if our body, as we get more and more inflamed, gave us a sound or a noise or maybe we turned polka dotted or something so we can know that something's going on here, you know? Yeah, for sure. And many times people do have chronic symptoms that are giving them a warning sign. And we just ignore it in our society, right? It's kind of like a check engine light goes on in our car. Typically we know, okay, I need to bring this in and get it looked at. But in our society, if we have headaches, chronic headaches, if we have chronic gut pain, if we have chronic joint pain, if we have skin rashes, acne, eczema, if we are gaining weight and we try some lifestyle strategies and we're just not losing weight, if we're gaining weight and we can go on and on, in our society, oftentimes the first thing we do is we go right to some sort of medication or we try to just ignore it. It's like we just let the check engine light stay on or we take some duct tape and just kind of stick it over it and pretend that everything's okay with the car. And that's really what we're doing. We're not actually getting to the root cause. Exactly. So that brings me to my very next question for you, which is this. What are some of the root causes of inflammation and how can this be measured quantitatively with lab testing? So when we look at root causes of chronic inflammation, one, and this is what you're really addressing in this summit, is a diet and lifestyle that is not right, right? So high blood sugar and insulin resistance, primarily driven by the food that we're consuming and lack of exercise, right? Lack of movement, food that we're consuming, obviously stress plays a role. So high stress, poor sleep hygiene and poor sleep quality. Sleep quality is super important. We've got to make sure we're sleeping really well when we are sleeping, but also proper hygiene when it comes to sleep. That plays a big role with our sleep quality. For example, shift workers, they might sleep eight or nine hours, but because they're sleeping at the wrong hours that are not right with, you know, humans, natural circadian rhythm or we're supposed to be sleeping at night, they tend to have higher levels of blood sugar and insulin resistance compared to people that are sleeping the same amount of hours and working kind of a normal shift and then sleeping overnight. So those are major factors. And then beyond that, we have things like chronic infections. So we know that when we have different infections, whether it's a candida overgrowth in our gut, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, H. pylori infections in our stomach, parasite infections, Lyme disease, things like that, that all drives up inflammatory processes in our body. Chronic overload of toxicity. All of us are exposed to chemicals in our air, water and food. So all of us have levels of toxicity coming into our system. But if our drainage and detoxification pathways are working properly, we should be eliminating a good amount of those and keeping our toxic bucket under control. And so we all have kind of like a toxic threshold. And so if we keep things under that threshold by keeping, you know, by limiting our exposure to toxins and then by allowing our body to detox and drain effectively, then, you know, that doesn't drive inflammation. However, if we're consuming lots of toxins from the food, we eat the air, we breathe the things we're putting on our skin, the water we're drinking, and then we're not doing things to help improve our lymphatic system, our liver, our gut, our kidneys. Right. We're not we're not peeing. You know, we should be urinating. Right. We should be peeing out toxins. We should be breathing them out. So respiration, perspiration, that's sweating, urination and defecation. Right. So we should be peeing, pooping, breathing. And sweating out these toxins. If we're not doing that, then our toxic load goes up, goes over that threshold, drives inflammation in the body. So toxicity is a big factor. You know, I mentioned stress. There can also be things like post -traumatic stress disorders. Right. So where somebody's had major trauma and their body never really recovered from that trauma and they're kind of reliving that trauma. Maybe somebody that was a war veteran or perhaps they were sexually abused or something along those lines. Right. They may relive those traumas on a regular basis, driving up inflammation in the body. So all of these things need to be addressed and and considered. Somebody might be living in a mold toxic house, right, breathing in mold and mycotoxins on a daily basis. They're trying to live a healthy lifestyle, but they're constantly overloading their their system with toxins. And so we've got to be able to look at all of those factors and make sure that we're addressing those to keep inflammation under control. Now, when we're measuring inflammation on labs, there's some easy labs that we can look at. You know, you can get done on blood work. For example, one of the most common is high sensitivity C reactive protein. CRP is a protein that our body, our immune system produces in response to inflammation. And, you know, so long as you don't get a false negative, like if you work out really intensely right before you get your blood test done, your CRP will be through the roof. That's actually a healthy level of inflammation, because after we exercise, we have inflammation to help our body heal and recover. So normally you want to not work out roughly 48 hours before getting the test done, ideally at least 24 hours. So you get the right measurement and your HSCRP should ideally be under one and really as close to zero as possible. And so typically it's not flag tie unless it's up over two or three, somewhere in that range. But anything over one is a sign that there's underlying inflammation there. And that's something that we definitely want to look at and address. So that's a big factor. You know, I know in this in this summit, I'm sure you've got people talking about things like hemoglobin A1C. We know hemoglobin A1C, that's a sign of the glycation process or basically when a sugar molecule binds to a major protein, like in this case, when it binds to hemoglobin, major protein that helps bring oxygen to the cells in the body and denatures the hemoglobin. And so it causes a sticky protein process. So we should have ideally like the optimal range really is is really under under 5 .2 on the hemoglobin, 5 .2 percent under. And so typically in our society, nothing is flagged until it's up over six, up over six percent. I like to keep mine under five, right? Between four point five and five. Some are in that range to make sure that my hemoglobin, my red blood cells have great capacity to bring oxygen to the cells so I can create the cellular energy I need to really thrive. So hemoglobin A1C is a really good marker. There's another one actually that you can test, too. It's it's it's called a novel marker for systemic inflammation. It's called GlycA, right? And so it's also a marker of glycosylation and again, a sugar molecule binding to proteins. In this case, GlycA looks at proteins particularly involved in the immune system. And so when that's elevated, I like to see it between one hundred and three hundred. Some are in that range, more closer to one hundred when it's up over three hundred. We know that's a sign of systemic inflammation. In fact, there are some individuals that will have normal HSCRP, but we'll see the GlycA elevated. And so that's a really good it's a novel marker. They've just been doing a number of studies on that, really starting just in the last five years. Very interesting marker. We know, for example, statin drugs will have a cholesterol lowering medications can have a mild anti -inflammatory effect that may bring CRP down, but they don't bring GlycA down. Whereas a lot of lifestyle strategies that you're talking about on the summit will help bring both of those markers down. And so that's a that's a really important thing to be looking at. Another key marker is LDH, lactate dehydrogenase, which is part of our natural energy, you know, our glycolysis and Krebs cycle. It's kind of a Krebs cycle glycolysis intermediary enzyme. And so when that's elevated, it's a sign that there's inflammation, particularly heart tissue related as well as liver. Right. Could be related to liver. And speaking of liver, liver enzymes are another really good marker. So when we're seeing liver enzymes like ALT, AST, GGT, when these when these are elevated up over roughly up over 25, that's a sign that there's inflammation affecting the liver cells. And then based on the ratios, for example, if ALT is real high, AST is kind of in the normal range, roughly 10 to 25 in that normal range. We know that inflammation is really affecting the liver when AST is high and ALT is more in the normal range or a lot lower than AST. We start thinking about that inflammation affecting muscle tissues or affecting the heart in particular. So that's a key marker for that. When GGT is real high up over 25 again and the AST and ALT are lower than the GGT, then we start thinking about biliary tree, gallbladder, bile ducts, that region. So it kind of helps us understand more of where that inflammation may be located. So these are just some of the markers. You know, if you get a good a good look, you know, you can also look at just a lipid panel, like where you're looking at your LDL, which is considered the bad cholesterol, your triglycerides, your HDL levels. We like to see the triglyceride to HDL ratio. If there was one thing I was going to look at on a lipid panel, I think all the markers can have some importance. We can get some good clinical data from all those markers. But if there was one marker I think is most important to look at, it would be the triglyceride to HDL ratio. So how many triglycerides, which are basically free fatty acids that our body can use as an energy source that are circulating in the bloodstream versus the high density lipoproteins, which are a carrier molecule that helps bring fats, lipids, all different types of molecules back to the liver from the cells. And so when we're looking at that ratio, we ideally should be under two. So under two parts triglyceride to HDL, roughly close to one. And that kind of close, as close to one as possible, one part triglyceride, one part HDL, like to see that triglyceride level certainly under a hundred. OK, and we look at that. That is a key marker for insulin resistance and inflammation. If your triglyceride to HDL ratio is up over two, if your HDL is under 50, you know, triglycerides are up over a hundred. You know, definitely a sign of insulin resistance and inflammation taking place in the body as long as the test is done fasting. Right. We always want to make sure with the lipid panel definitely can be affected if we eat a meal right before we we get that lab done. But that's a really key marker to look at and helps us understand how well our body's responding to getting nutrients into the cells. So when triglycerides are real high, we're not good at burning fat for fuel. We've got all these extra fats out in the cell or outside in the bloodstream. And those fats can become denatured and cause more reactive oxygen species and drive up oxidative stress and inflammation in the system. So all very important markers to be looking at. A lot of these tests are not expensive, but glyca is a little bit more pricey. But most of the other ones you can easily get from your physician. Just go in, ask for the high sensitivity, high sensitivity to your reactive protein, lipid panel, liver enzymes. Right. They'll run all of those. And then one other marker that we should look at as well as vitamin D levels are 25 hydroxy vitamin D. A lot of research out showing that levels on certainly under 30 nanograms per milliliter, where you're you're the lab will actually flag you as deficient, you know, linked with all cause mortality. So if you have levels under 30, you're all cause mortality, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, neurodegenerative condition. We talk about any sort of chronic disease and then dying of anything goes up. Right. So it's really easy actually to bump that up. Ideally, we do it by getting in the sun. However, most of us just not getting enough sunshine. We may not be living in an area where the sun's going to impact us in a significant way to get the vitamin D if we're up. Let's say we live in Canada, we live in Maine, we live in these northern climates. It's going to be harder to get enough vitamin D from the sun. But if we are in a you know, even if we are in that location, like in the summer months, trying to get as much sun on as much of your body as possible. Obviously, you don't want to burn. But outside of that, trying to get the sunshine is key. Sun offers a lot more benefits than just a vitamin D supplement. However, taking a vitamin D supplement as well can be really helpful. I usually recommend about a thousand international units per twenty five pounds of body weight taken with meals you do at one or two doses, depending on how much of that you need. And that will definitely get your vitamin D levels up. You want to test every three to six months or so and kind of look at where you're at. Ideally, I like to see it up over 60 nanograms per milliliter, usually not concerned about overdosing. The research shows that as long as you keep it really under about 150 nanograms per milliliter, you won't deal with any sort of, you know, toxicity, vitamin D toxicity. It's really hard to get it up over 150, although it can be done if you're taking like 50 ,000 units every single day. So if you're taking roughly five, 10, 15 ,000 units every day, you're probably going to optimize your vitamin D and do really well. And so those would be some of the key labs I would definitely recommend. All right, great, thank you for that list of people listening, friends, you know, here in the audience, please do take out your notes, get your paper and pen ready, or if you're keeping a Google doc or however you're keeping track and look at this list because it'll be helpful to you to help guide your own health and be aware. And you may find you're already working with a doctor who's doing these kind of testing. It's not time to time to up level. Hey, I just wanted to interrupt this podcast to tell you about my cell liposomal glutathione. This is an amazing product because our modern world is toxic. No matter how health conscious you try to be. The truth is that every single day you and I are being bombarded by harmful toxins and stressors, things like EMF, 5G, heavy metals, chemicals, processed foods and the like. And when left to roam free, these toxins take on the form of something called free radicals. Free radicals promote an unhealthy inflammatory response and contribute to oxidative on damage the cellular level. This is kind of like the browning of an apple. This is happening inside of our bodies at all times, and it's potentially leading to premature aging, a lower quality of life and a range of health problems. But the good news is that we can fight back with antioxidants and they are crucial in combating free radicals and keeping you on track. And one of the most powerful antioxidants known to man is glutathione. You see, glutathione fights free radicals and molecules that cause cellular damage while repairing the DNA and flushing out toxins. The only thing about glutathione is that not all supplements are created equal. You want a kind of glutathione that has optimal absorption capacity. And that is why I love the Pureality Health My Cell Liposomal Technology, which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream. And it's proven to be 800 percent more efficient than other forms of glutathione. And even better, this is backed by a 180 day money back guarantee. And today we have a 30 percent off coupon for you.

How Diane Cotter Discovered PFAS "Forever Chemicals" in Her Husband's Protective Gear
"One day i came across a story about a new jersey firefighter who had succumbed to a horrific incident where he was out of fire and his gear failed so we know what that means it degraded now what happened to his body was that he suffered steam burns that covered i'll be conservative and say over 70 percent of his body but i think it was closer to 90 percent and that horrified me to think that his gear failed at a fire obviously if he knew it was failing he wouldn't have worn the gear so i ran down to our basement and i pulled paul's gear out of the box it had been stored in and i had turned the basement light off and i took a flashlight and i shined it through the three layers the outer shell the moisture barrier and the thermal liner and i it was specific to look in the crotch area because that's where those reproductive organs are and i'm thinking jesus did his did did toxin seep through his groin area did his gear degrade and i found these coin size quarter dime nickel pieces of fabric missing you wouldn't know what to look at it because if you couldn't see that it was missing because the gear looked fine and then i ran back upstairs and i thought holy crap this is something wrong because i understood enough about absorption in the groin area to understand that that's that area that's so absorptive you know like your neck the tissues are very thin i had educated myself a lot on cancer by that point in time and i started looking then on the computer about the the fabrics themselves and i started to look at nomex and kevlar the moisture barriers and um i came into this 1999 safety alert that the international you know the big labor union had written to manufacturers demanding that they recall a moisture barrier because the moisture barrier had degraded so i'm thinking well what's what's going on why is the iafs sending out a safety alert because in that letter they had threatened to sue the manufacturers if they didn't recall this a moisture barrier that had degraded the companies had given pushback that they they weren't gonna you know do what the iafs said now and this was counter to everything that i had understood and loved about the manufacturers from reading years worth of you know fire engineering and firehouse magazine used to come to our house and in the paperback in the paper versions and i started to look at who those names were on there and i'm like why is this so strange this is a terrible feeling that the union back then had to fight to get those moisture barriers recalled at any event then i began to contact people about cancer and in the degradation of the gear and does that have something to do with this you know the cancer that my husband had i started networking with fire fighters laughing because i have to tell you one of the things i did i became so obsessed that i was messaging 200 firehouses a day and getting kicked off of facebook because there's a limit of people that you can i was a habitual offender as a spammer because i was saying do you know about this degradation in the gear and and i was sending emails to anyone i could think of that could help me track down this degradation i sent thousands of emails thousands i think at the last count there was 25 000 emails that i had sent out and the response i received was astounding because nobody could answer my questions but i did get a response from aaron brockovich who emailed and then called and she said diana i've gotten your emails and i just got a call from the fire chief in new hampshire who has 13 firefighters with cancer and i said that doesn't surprise me because every firehouse is a cancer cluster so we spoke and she said does the gear have pfoa or pfos and i never heard that language before and i went to the computer and i googled turnout gear pfoa pfos and i found a document from the european chemical association and from an industry site in europe discussing the potential transition to non pfoa ppe so i'm here in the united states can't possibly have that stuff because you know we're the united states of america they wouldn't do that to their bravest oh but i was wrong

Firefighter Cancer: Diane Cotter Describes Her Husband's Harrowing Diagnosis
"Diane Carter is a self -taught citizen activist who's upright focused and determined efforts in support of her husband fire lieutenant Paul Carter during and after their battle against Paul's occupational cancer served as the inspiration for the documentary Burned protecting the protectors by filmmaker Elijah Yetter Bowman and award -winning actor Mark Ruffalo executive producer. Diane is the ultimate standard bearer a smart outspoken and fearless woman who continues to march at the head of her six -year campaign to remove PFAS forever chemicals from the gear worn by today's firefighters. No less an authority that Ed Kelly general president of the IAFF has properly called Diane Carter the firefighter's hero. The firefighters hero that's uh some big big shoes to fill so Diane tell us your story first of all welcome thanks for being with us I actually watched a movie yesterday that you sent us and I had to pause several times because I was so overwhelmed and so pissed off a couple times good um yeah so we'll talk about the movie but first tell us your story can you give us your background a little bit sure thank you I'm glad to meet you ladies finally in person big follower of the show I love it I love what you do I love that spouses and significant others are involved because um that's what I am that's all that I am it's a it's a fire wife I have no formal education I did get my hairdressers license some years ago and I was the worst hairdresser in the world so I didn't go far but I stayed at home and raised our children until they were about 10 and 11. Paul got on the fire department in 1988 when our son was two months old and our daughter was 18 months old our son is now a firefighter in the same department my husband served at now works in the same station in Worcester they had a beautiful beautiful life we embraced everything that we loved about the fire service his friends became my friends their wives became my my best friends we vacation with them etc. Paul had spent 25 years on the rescue in Worcester he had a 28 -year career at age 55 he decided it was time to climb the ladder so he took the lieutenant's exam and he made lieutenant and he was pretty disappointed because that meant that he'd leave his crew and he had worked with this crew you know on the same shift for 25 years they'd gone through a lot together the Worcester warehouse fire they've gone through so much together at any event we went on vacation with our firefighter families to moosehead lake up in maine and we came back to a beautiful ceremony in Worcester city hall when my husband was promoted to lieutenant along with one of his best buddies and the rescue saw him off and it was wonderful Paul was getting ready getting prepared to go back on to a new rig and he had an appointment to see a doctor because he was going in for cataract surgery his pre -exam showed that he had just a very slightly elevated number in his psa for prostate he had that check regularly as he did a lot of checks for his health because he was a very fitness aware person at any event he did get the call to come in they wanted a biopsy and i thought nothing about a biopsy because to look at him he literally looked like a 45 -year -old at 55 he was very fit very very strong and the picture of health we went to the doctor's office and i can remember that day because i was just so adamant to get this over with this appointment because i had things to do and we were making small talk with the doctor and we were in the tiny doctor's office room the exam room and out of nowhere the doctor said yep it's cancer and in that moment that moment i can remember because i remember i screamed and i fell into the chair and Paul who's almost six feet tall he broke out in this sweat all over his body i could just see the beads of sweat come out from everywhere on him and he sunk into a chair he tore his shirt off and he sunk into a chair and i can remember the doctor talking for 45 minutes and i'm crying and Paul's looking at me looking at the doctor looking at me looking at the doctor and we didn't hear a word he said

Then the theater where Zach broke the record, the regal surprised him with a donation to the American Federation for suicide prevention. The amount was $7 ,777 and 77 cents. How did he do it? Zach would get off work and then watch two movies. And then on weekends he would watch more. Taking one night off a week. That's like 16 or 17 movies every week. He used a movie pass deal. So it only costs act between like this was all out of pocket for him between two and 300 bucks. If you didn't have that movie pass, it would have been like a lot more in the thousands.

How Does a Chamber of Commerce Work With a City to Attract New Business? Bob Linscheid and Judy Lloyd Weigh In
"How does the chamber and other business organizations work with the city to be that vehicle to attract businesses? Then maybe Judy, if you could continue and then Bob. So this is less about attraction and more about the things we're doing to incentivize businesses who are coming in. So we work with the town. We have a business marketing grant program that we work with on the, with the town. Any business coming into Danville would be eligible for, and it offers complimentary video and photo packages. And that's all town sponsored administered by the chamber. We could take up to 20 businesses. We're full for this year, but it's a program that we did last year and did a great job and they're all featured on our website. So every business that's a chamber member gets their own page, which shows their video shows their photos. And so that's an incentive for people to not only join the chamber and be part of our community, but to come to Danville. We also run our merchant to the market program, which is our farmer's market, which allows our businesses to display at the farmer's market. And we're actually looking to do some more things to expand the Danville farmer's market. So that's one thing. And then some of the other things we're doing that I can go into later, but one, I do want to talk about it a little later in the program is our new women's enterprise initiatives. So we've got a lot of different things. We work with the town on largely on grads programs, festivals. When I say festivals, I mean the lighting of the old Oak tree, which is the kickoff of our shopping season. So we work with them on some of the bigger events. We have health and wellness day coming up where we're going to have some local celebrities. So there's lots of different things that we do to showcase Danville for the beautiful place it is. Bob? Yeah. So to get fundamental on you for a minute regarding the issue of attraction, our mission basically is to attract, support and grow business in the Walnut Creek region through advocacy, inclusive economic and business development. Those are just words. But when you work with a city of our size that has a, an economic development team of three plus people, we need to be, first of all, on the same page. And so our first initiative is to promote Walnut Creek as a premier East Bay location for corporate and satellite locations, targeting finance, professional services and tech. And tech could also include medical because we have such a strong medical presence. We're evaluating and investigating the possibility of forming essentially a wellness corridor along Nayshow Valley Road as an example. We discovered that the two cancer centers that are going in here will generate between 120 and 150 ,000 additional square footage just as a result of those two functions. When you talk about business attraction, I think it's important to talk about jobs and economic development is defined as the creation or retention of jobs. So we're focusing on some of the bigger roles, even though some of the smaller retail efforts are real important. Auto, the new auto industries is becoming very prevalent here. We're going to see some different things happening with the Toyota area of Walnut Creek. And so these are all about business attraction, but you have to have a unified voice of what we are as a community and we're developing that with our cities.

Evangelism on SermonAudio
A highlight from Evangelism Pt. 2
"Yeah, it's forgot It has the four points of that gospel presentation that I talked about last week being God man Christ and response And today I'm going to be kind of building on that. Well, I am going to be building on it So that's why I gave that handout and on that handout are also some verse references Just in case you guys want to use this as like a reference sheet or something. It could be something that's very useful in the future And also then I just want to mention that there's two books really one book that were really helpful for me Originally as I was kind of trying to grow in my faith and then now again as I was trying to prepare this lesson One of them is called. What is the gospel by Greg Gilbert? It's like 120 pages and it's actually I didn't bring it but it's about this big so it's 120 pages, but they're small So it's a pretty easy read and then the other one is more of a devotional book It's called a gospel primer from Milton Vincent and that's been something that's been really helpful with me, too So I know I already mentioned this but last week I had summarized the gospel message and I had broken it up into four parts That was God man Christ and man's response. I Didn't really go into too much detail about why each point is important or give the verses to support each point But this week I really want to take the time to focus on each part With with some of the verses that support it and explain why each piece of it is important like I mentioned last week the gospel is the message that God has entrusted us with and it is not a Responsibility that we should be taking lightly. This is shown. We'll read it again in Galatians chapter 8 chapter 1 verses 8 & 9 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary Contrary to the one we preach to you Let him be accursed as we have said before so now I say again if anyone is preaching to you a gospel Contrary to the one you received let him be accursed So the first part the first part of that four -point gospel message is God So today especially here in the Northeast there are a lot of people who either have no understanding of God They have a wrong understanding of God or they just denied the existence of God entirely So most people today when you talk to them about God, you're gonna get probably one of four different responses The first is that God is love and because of that he's not going to judge anyone for their actions The second might be along the lines of that God is angry and he doesn't care about his creation anymore and they'll talk about things like natural disasters and cancer And the third is going to be a denial of God entirely Which would be an atheist or the last response might be that they do believe in a God with a lowercase G And that's either another religion or maybe aliens or something So since God is the beginning point and the foundation of the gospel of the gospel There are some key things that we need to be able to explain the study of who God is and knowing about his attributes and really having a Relationship with him is something that takes an entire lifetime to do and it is something that we're never going to be able to fully understand However, there are certain points and certain basic things that we should be able to comprehend and be able to explain So the first the first part of that is that God is the Creator The creation narrative is something that unfortunately even today is challenged within churches and by Christians For example there are some people who believe that God kind of set things in order and then he kind of just took his hands off things and evolution took over from that point forward an Atheist or a non -believer would be a person who says that God had absolutely no involvement in creation whatsoever So to say that God had no or very limited involvement in creation would be to say that the creation does not belong to God to Yeah, the verses or passages that support this point about God being the Creator are verses that I think we're all familiar with and that Will be in Genesis chapter 1 verses 1 and then 26 and 27 so Genesis 1 1 reads in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth and Genesis 1 26 and 27 is when God created man and it says then God said let us make man in our image According to our likeness and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea over the birds of the air and Over the cattle over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth So God created man in his own image in the image of God he created he created him male and female he created them So because God is a creator this means two things First is that there is a purpose for everything that has been created and nothing just exists by random chance or for absolutely no purpose The second is that because God is the Creator he has ownership over his creation This ownership means two things.

Lawmakers in several states are now telling companies to be transparent about opportunities for promotion. This is the same way wage transparency happened. It starts in Colorado and then it spread to California and Washington and New York City and later this month, New York State. Jeff Green wrote the story for Bloomberg News. The idea is that when you're going to promote somebody into a new job, that that will be available for everyone who's in the company to be aware of. The new rules aim to discourage what's known as the shoulder tap. Somebody will be thinking about somebody for a job. They'll come up to them and say, hey, are you interested in this promotion? And that's maybe no one else is even aware this is going on and the promotion happens and you find out in a memo that you have a new boss. Disparate levels of promotion are seen as one of the key factors explaining why women still earn only about 80 cents on the dollar compared to men. I'm Charlie Pellet, Bloomberg Radio.

That really means the world to us and it helps us reach more people and impact more lives. Thank you so much for doing that and thank you for being a part of our community. Let's go into the show. Well Dr. Naysha, always great to connect with you and I know you're one of the leading minds when it comes to natural oncology, natural cancer, holistic approach and just really understanding what cancer is and so I'd love to start there and really this idea of like with cancer. I love this topic. As I told you before you started recording, I think it's really important because often what happens is somebody gets the almighty C, gets met with that and somehow their belief systems because of how our culture perpetuates it, it goes immediately into terror and immediately into I'm going to die and it's just a matter of moments before that happens and so we make some assumptions that our longevity is somehow tied to this particular diagnosis and are really kind of fragile way and so I love that we get to start there with this and so first of all remember that the actual Webster's dictionary definition of longevity is a long duration of individual life, continuance, permanence and durability and when we hear that one thing that happens in my mind is there's that concept between quality and quantity of life as well and so there's that piece and then also the concept of longevity when you're given a really intense diagnosis such as cancer, what I think happens is folks actually forget, this is why I love that you're doing this summit, that over 93 % of us are walking around on this planet with dysfunction in our body that actually is contributing to poor longevity. That will surprise people. People will think that's cancer at the top of the list but it's metabolic fragility, metabolic inflexibility and so I think that this is really important to know. The other thing on longevity before we tie it into specifically to cancer is that in the United States for the last five or six years, I'm sure you have somebody who's spoken to this, longevity is faltering. We're the only developed westernized modern on nation the planet today where our longevity is not only not improving or staying the same, it's getting worse and we thought it was looking bad and we were commenting on this back in 2017, 18 and 19 when we started noticing this trend and you can imagine how much worse it's gotten since then and so this really opens up our conversation today which is what scientists are calling this longevity issue, this loss of longevity, the era of despair and I even say that and it just it weighs heavy on my heart because the very diagnosis of cancer can lead to despair but people often forget sort of the chicken or the egg scenario which came first and so I think that's where we'll spend some time today about how this concept of longevity and cancer, where the two shall meet, maybe what came before that diagnosis and what we can talk about to empower a different outcome.
Game of Crimes
A highlight from 114: Part 2: Sgt. Betsy Brantner Smith is still Defending and Protecting
"You know, that brings attention to a professional police department and what's going on, what really goes on. I mean, that's why Game of Crimes is so professional and so popular. Exactly. People want to hear the inside stories. Look at the, I can tell you, I ran into the commissioner of the Alaska State Troopers and when they started putting that on Nat Geo, they got all sorts of people applying. Now, the biggest problem was you'd get some guys from the East, like New York, come out there and like, I got to be in what village for three years? Yeah, you're right. Yeah, my backup is going to take four days. What? I'm a head dog by mushing, you know, Sergeant Preston of the Yukon. Hey, I wanted to ask you about that though, because we want to get into talking now about a lot of the work that you're doing right now. But I preface that by saying there used to be a time when you and Dave, you'd send me a message, you'd see me on Fox or whatever, hey, I see you on TV. I can't turn on the TV now without seeing your ass all over the TV. You are on, you have been on so many things, but that gets into what I wanted to talk about with you. You took a lot of your training, you took a lot of the work that you did. And now I think you're doing one of the great things, which is you're out there telling the story. So let's talk about how did you get involved? But before we do that, I asked you, I told you, I wanted to ask you about this. You had no problems. You survived a lot of things, but you had one of the biggest fights of your life wasn't getting run over by a car in a, in a convenience store, was it, but it did involve another C. Yeah, absolutely. So the end of September, 2020, you know, I just got back from a training trip and I get the doctor says, you know, Mrs. Smith, yeah. Hey, has anybody called you about your biopsy? And I'd forgotten that I'd had a breast biopsy like a month earlier. And and I go, no. And he goes, oh, well, okay. So you have cancer and it's a very aggressive type. And I've referred you to an oncologist that'll, she'll give me a call next week and he's getting ready to hang up. And I like, hold on, let me get my husband. So like, come over here. What the hell? And you know, he's a super guy, but they just don't, it's not like on TV, nobody says, nobody brings you in and sits you down and gives you a tissue and says you have cancer. They go, okay, you got cancer. A lot of other people got cancer. That's kind of the, that's kind of the, the, the attitude, you know, and, and you just want to scream at everybody, but, but I have cancer. Well, so do a million other people. And so, so yeah, so I was diagnosed with, with breast cancer. And so this is, this is in the middle of the pandemic. So which was really serendipitous at the time because we weren't traveling a lot. We weren't doing a lot of training because things kept getting postponed. And so make long story short, and it does weave into my, my job at the national police association, but I had a, a double mastectomy. And after the, after they do that, you know, they told me, okay, great. We got it all. It's all good. You know, we had the kids came down for Thanksgiving and we celebrated. And then I go back to the doctor and she goes, oh, well, I have the rest of your pathology. Great. You have another kind of cancer. Do I now? And so then I had to go through chemotherapy and, and then a year after, you know, about five months, chemotherapy, a year of infusions. And I see the oncologist next week. And I think I'll go from seeing an oncologist every 90 days to every six months. And they can't call me cancer free, but they call me presumed cured. So I'm incredibly grateful. But it did factor into multiple things with my, my, my appearances in the media. So we can, we can talk about that too. Well, and I, I tracked this cause you posted some of this on Facebook and everything else. And it's kind of like, if there's one tough lady who can kick cancer's ass, it's going to be Betsy Brantner Smith. And I mean, you did, I mean, it's like, well, look, you're still doing it too. And you had, I mean, Dave obviously was there with you to help you out. And it's so important to have that relationship, um, to do stuff like that. But if I, you know, look, if I asked cancer, I'd be a little afraid. You see what I don't, don't let the good looks fool you here, you know, cause I'll kick your ass. And that's what you did. You know, that's what you're continuing to do. Well, it was a team effort. I, you know, Dave and I really approached this like a, as he says, I approached it like an assignment, like a call. And, uh, and that's really what you had to do, but it is very much a, it's a team effort and I'm very low drama. Like I, I didn't even want to tell anybody. I was like, why do we have to tell people? And he's like, well, you can't have cancer. Not tell people like, why, why not? Well, because, because you went six months without telling anybody you were pregnant. You're already hiding things. You know, I, you know, cause I was like, I, at the time I didn't think I'd have to chemo. So who's going to know? You know, and our kids, we have four kids. They live all in different parts of the country.

A highlight from How Cece Meadows Built a Cosmetics Line as an Homage to Indigenous Beauty
"C .C. Meadows has survived a lot. Ovarian cancer, domestic abuse, a period where she and her kids were homeless. Today, she runs a makeup line, Parados Beauty, and as you're going to hear in the telling of her story, all of that hardship and all of that struggle only doubled C .C.'s commitment to giving back. C .C. shares how her indigenous roots informed her vision of beauty, the financial mechanics of fulfilling huge product orders, and how her retail partnership with e -commerce site 13 Loon and JCPenney catapulted Parados Beauty into profitability. C .C., thank you so much for being here. Thank you for having me. So, C .C., you grow up outside of Yuma, Arizona, the eldest of four children, and you describe it as a pretty rough upbringing. Can you give me a sense of what that looked like and the lessons that you were growing up with? My parents were fairly young. I think my mom was 17 when she had me. My dad was like a cowboy on a cattle ranch. He started working there when he was like 14. We didn't really have a lot. I remember my parents telling us that we were rich in love because we had each other. I think that that's like a normal thing that you say to kids because you literally have nothing. My grandparents were a big, big part of my childhood growing up. I actually didn't even speak English when I went to kindergarten because I was raised pretty much in my grandparents' home and they only spoke Spanish and like traditional Yoemi language, but I loved school because, you know, we had breakfast and lunch and then eat dinner at my grandparents' house and saw these three jolitos and rice and squash. I hated squash for the longest time because I ate it so much as a kid, but, you know, we didn't really have a lot. It was really rough. The way you tell it, I mean, it feels to me like your life sort of took off like a rocket ship in the sense that like a lot of kids who are living in homes that are under resourced, school for you becomes a refuge and you do really well in school and school is a place where you thrive. You even become the first person in your family to graduate from college. You get big jobs out of school. You're making six figures working in finance. You get married, you have a baby girl, and then things are going up, up, up, up, up, and then you get sick. Tell me how you go from being a self -described successful person to being absolutely broke. Yeah, so I had just separated from my first husband. I got married super young. I was 21 years old when I got married, divorced, you know, or separated at 25. Between 25 and 27, like I continued working in finance and being successful and learning how to shuffle a co -parenting schedule with him and he was great. He's always been great, but I started dating somebody after my marriage ended and it was great when it was great and it was awful when it wasn't. And so I'm a survivor of domestic abuse and I feel like being in that relationship was just the kickoff of this domino effect of just unfortunate circumstances that started happening in my life. I'm diagnosed with ovarian cancer at 27. I've always had like women issues, menstruation issues. I would get ultrasounds pretty often and they were just following, you know, you get polyps and you get like cysts and things like that. They were following just one that just kept growing and they're just like, you know what, we're going to have to go in and biopsy this, like it looks like it's growing. And so they caught it very early. I'm super lucky, but I did one round of chemo. I didn't have the long -term disability option to just stay home and so I went back to work, you know, I was wearing my scarves and I just was too sick to work and I had to stay home eventually and I just didn't have the resources to be able to live. And so I ended up going through remission and then I had my son the following year. He was just a little bit over two months and I moved in with my ex and he was an alcoholic. And I found myself holding a newborn baby, being kicked out of the house and the only thing I could grab was, you know, a box of diapers that were by the door and I didn't have anywhere to go. Ultimately, that led me to being homeless and sleeping in Walmart parking lots just because I literally had nowhere to go. How do you begin to pull yourself out? Oh man, a lot of hope and a lot of prayer. I had a 2006 Super Sport Monte Carlo and it had a moonroof on it and we were sleeping in a Walmart parking lot and it had just stopped raining and the clouds kind of opened up and you could see the stars and, you know, I'm holding my baby and I'm looking at this moonroof and you could see the stars so clearly and this is like in the Salinas, California area and so it's like always foggy and you don't really get like a clear view of the stars but I remember my little girl looking up and she was like, oh, look, it's the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper and she just, you know, she was only five and I always, you know, would talk to her about how we come from the stars and I remember her placing her little hand on my son, placed it on top of his head, I was holding him kind of like this and she looked at me and she said, Mommy, we're not really camping, are we? And think I for me, as a mother, there was no like other feeling to feel like a failure in that moment and I thought to myself, she's watching me, she's watching what I'm doing and she's watching what I put up with and she's watching where I brought her and, you know, kids are so resilient and you can like try to hide things from them but there was no hiding that from her and it was in that very moment that I decided that I needed to pull everything that I possibly could out of like myself, what I had left, what little I felt inside of self -worth and self -love and I needed to really focus on that because what I was doing was I was allowing a life, you know, time of, you know, at 28 years old, I was letting 28 years of things just fester and not getting like the therapy that I needed for myself so that I could learn what had happened to me and why and how I needed to stop it with myself so that my children didn't have to suffer the way that I was at that moment and so I ended up calling a friend of mine who was also having a hard time and I asked her like, hey, where did you go, you know, to get help? I was ready to go stay like in a homeless shelter and she was like, you can actually go stay with me at my brother's house if you need somewhere to go and I remember all I had was my two kids and like a laundry basket that I kept in the back of my car a couple of days just turned into us staying in an empty room that they had for a little bit over a year and I started going to cosmetology school.
Dear Chiefs Podcast
"How to Kill a Firefighter in 5 Easy Steps" With James Geering
"So you talked about your blog for a second and I want to talk about it for a minute because I was reading through your website this morning and this blog really caught my attention it's from 2018 so you probably remember the how to kill a firefighter in five easy steps yes and it's still the same problem today so by that point it had been a couple of years talking about some very pertinent things which is flogging a dead horse to some people if they listen to the podcast a lot but it blows my mind how people are still completely oblivious to it but yeah for example we talk about cancer oh it's you know wash your gear absolutely a small part of the overall thing but the strength of the individual's human body to carcinogens resist is a massive part of that mental health oh james it was what you saw with that you know decapitated three -year -olds absolutely that's a part of it but if you know for example my own personal journey and I never actually I was very very fortunate I had so many positive coping mechanisms given to me just by accident I mean none of us can manipulate our childhood but I was extremely lucky but I almost died in a house fire when I was four so you know you could look at the the three -year -old thing and be like why isn't he getting better well maybe I've never addressed the four -year -old me thing before I ever put the uniform on so that piece was really seeing that this information was kind of getting out there and people completely still refusing to address that so for example sleep deprivation the shifts one of the things that die on my sword elements is that the insanity that if you go into a bank or a grocery store right now 99 of the people working there their work week ends at 40 hours but the person that wakes up from a dead sleep at three in the morning slides down a two -story pole gets in the back of a rig drives lights and sirens against traffic goes to a fire makes entry does a search pulls someone out maybe even then doffs their gear and functions as a paramedic 56 hour week is perfectly acceptable before mandatory so this was the big thing is like yeah if you want to kill firefighters and just keep doing the same thing that you're doing and you're smashing it congratulations you're reaching your quota which is what is a body count again or we could actually take a step back listen to all the science that's already out there from every other profession except ours and police and realize that we're killing our people and until we invest in our first responders and give them the rest and the recovery that we need in our profession I would argue that a 2472 should be an industry standard at minimum then I mean the longer time goes on the more blood is on your hands and you have the information like just my podcast alone 800 experts from neuroscientists sleep medicine experts coaches and nutritionists and you name it so you can't say you didn't know so now it's knowingly burying your peoples and that was 2018 that's five years ago I was already just angry about it because I myself had put two years worth of information out there for free anyone can access no Patreon no exclusive membership just open source for the whole world so they say about insanity doing the same thing expecting different results you know push -ups haven't fixed mental health clean cabs I'm all for that concept not surgically but leaning that way but we're still losing people hand over fist from cancer so it's not just the fires it's not just the exposures to trauma there's other elements that we have to bring into this conversation
Art Beauty
A highlight from Beyond UV: The Four Factors that Prematurely Age Skin
"This is the Art Beauty podcast where we are always reaching for truth and beauty. Remember the brands on the show are not paying to be here so we get to ask them candid questions because you deserve to be informed so you can make the best choices for yourself. I'm Amber and today my fabulous co -host is Dr. Loretta Seraldo. She is a board certified dermatologist, been practicing for over 40 years, has an incredible background that we're gonna talk all about. And she is also the founder of Dr. Loretta Skincare. It is such an honor to have you on today. I'm gonna call you Dr. Loretta through this. Welcome to the show. Thank you so much, Amber. It's a pleasure to be here. So I have to say, when I was researching your background, I mean, you have such an incredible history in skincare. I saw that you were actually involved in the development of the Fitzpatrick scale, is that correct? Yes, absolutely. That is insane. And then you also opened one of the first, and please correct me if I'm wrong, cosmetic clinics. The dermatology clinics, yeah. Well, that was a teaching clinic at University of Miami. We think maybe it was the first one in the whole country. So can you just give us a little bit of your background? Yes, because I think that it really will give such a sort of like historical perspective on how short a time we really understand sun damage and external factors and all this. So I was in medical school in New York in the 1970s. And after my first year of medical school in 1975, I got a summer research job up at Harvard Medical School in the dermatology department. And like most of the very few women who were in medical school in the early 70s, which I started in 74, most of us sort of entered medical school thinking that we would be pediatricians or obstetricians, but I was very interested in this research opportunity. So I get to the dermatology department, not understanding much about dermatology. And the head of the lab tells me that I'm going to be investigating the effects of the sun's UVA on human skin. So I was very interested in this. And right before we were gonna go to lunch at the cafeteria, he said, you know, Loretta, by the way, I'd rather that you don't tell too many people what I'm doing because many of the physicians in the cafeteria already are like so sure that not enough UVA reaches the surface of the earth for it to have an effect on our skin. Long story short, I think you should know that the rest is history. And when we study the effects of the sun's UVA on human skin, that led to the development of what we call to this day, broad spectrum sunscreen so that the FDA requires that all sunscreens now must protect not only from UVB, which is what they did in the 1970s, but also from UVA, as well as UVB, that started in the 80s once all the research got done. Amazing, you know, and just here's something great that I've learned through my, if that gets confusing to people, I like to think of this, UVA are the aging race, right? So they're gonna go a little bit deeper into the skin, affect the deeper layers of the skin, where UVB are, they're actually curvier waves, so they go less deep into the skin, but those are the burning. UVA is aging, UVB burning. But wow, so UVA only, that research was really only being done since the 80s or in the 80s? Yeah, no, actually in the 70s. Yeah, exactly, yeah, it was very interesting. Actually, it was really done for the treatment of psoriasis. So when I got to that lab, there were called the photobiology labs at Harvard, they had already had Westinghouse make up UVA bulbs for the treatment of psoriasis. And then the question was, instead of doing intense UVA bulbs, could you actually go under the sun? And actually what we did to do the research was we gave people a pill to make them a little more sensitive to UVA so we could really study the impact. And yeah, I think that actually, that whole background and perspective, I think then leads into some of the things that are now on the forefront of sun protection. Like it's been argued, do we need the HEV blue light protection or not? But I think as we go on, we might get to that discussion today too. Oh, I would love to. So, okay, so you clearly have done this. When did you decide to go into practice? Right, so basically what happened was, again, I sort of thought, well, what will I become? And as I went into my third year of medical school, I knew, I actually was already dating one of my classmates who I was with for 47 years until unfortunately his recent sudden death. But I was dating my classmate. I wanted to have kids. We went on to get married and have four kids. So when I got to obstetrics, I was, oh, wow. You know, I don't think I'm gonna have time to have a big family. When I got to pediatrics, again, this was the 1970s and there's still, we didn't have good medicine for pediatric leukemias. And so that was sort of very depressing. And so I said to my husband, you know what? I am so fascinated with the field of dermatology and it could really also afford me this amazing lifestyle. I think, so I went back to Harvard in my fourth year of medical school and did another big research project because that really then just sealed the deal for me that I was in love with dermatology. I love that too, because you were really a pioneer. And you mentioned at the time there were not a lot of women entering the field. So thank you for sort of breaking through those barriers for us. You're welcome. So you have been practicing dermatology for over 40 years now. Exactly. And I do want to talk about this because we're gonna talk very much in detail about your skincare line, but your skincare line is all based on sort of this theory of like the aging theory of exposomes. So can you explain what exposome theory is? Yes, and honestly, I think this is very important and it doesn't even have anything necessarily to do with my skincare line, although I picked up on it in formulating. So what I'm going to explain to you is, of course, I went to do the research and all of the research I did during medical school had to do with the effects of the sun. But then very interestingly, I got married to my husband during medical school and we decided to stay in New York. And I ended up doing my training up in the Bronx, New York. This started in my dermatology residency started in 1979. And believe it or not, women kind of come a very long way since the 1970s. So I would say the vast majority of the patients that I saw in my residency, the women did not have driver's licenses, did not have any access to go to the beach or a pool, forget it. And what we of course started to do then and do to this day is when people would come in to see us in the dermatology clinic, we would do total body exams to look for skin cancer. And what struck me from the very, very beginning, the first week of my residency is that when we saw older people, so this would be, let's say a woman in her 70s or 80s, and I'm talking to her at first getting a little history and I see she's very wrinkled and she's got a lot of age spots, all the unwanted changes of aging. When I then had her put on a gown so that I could check all of her skin for skin cancer, I honestly was myself a little bit shocked to realize that even people who were elderly, who had really advanced aging changes on their face and their neck and all, when we got to examine the areas that were not exposed to the elements, areas that were chronically covered by clothing, they always looked decades younger. Now I'm gonna get back to what I said to you though. That started to really percolate through dermatology, dermatology literature, that it was only exposed skin that was really aging. And so in the 19, by the late 70s, especially early 80s, we started to use a term that I think is very popular not just in dermatology literature, but in the lay literature and it's called photo aging. And basically what that meant was, okay, it's not really your chronologic age that's causing all these unwanted changes, but that term photo, right? Like photobiology labs, photons from the sun. What it meant was all these unwanted changes were coming from the sun. But remember what I said to Amber, this was a very special population that I had of all these adorable little old ladies who like maybe they had come over from Sicily or God knows where they didn't have cars. They stayed home ironing their husband's shirts and making the lunch for the kids. And these women hardly had any sun exposure, yet they had all of these hallmarks of such a disparity between skin that I have to just say was exposed to the elements, to the external environment. So at that point, I started to sort of delve a little bit into, well, what the heck is going on, right? Of course, we know a single sunburn can cause a lot of skin damage and all of this, but there must have been other factors. This was sort of what I started to believe many, many years ago. And as time has gone on, there was more and more research that for instance, looks at the effects of pollution.
Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life
A highlight from Tim Keller Memorial Service
"And welcome to our memorial service for Dr. Timothy J. Keller. Before we get started, we have a couple words of welcome from Cardinal Dolan. Thank you. Friends, you're all very much at home here at St. Patrick's Cathedral. I hope you know that. Thanks, Mrs. Keller and family, for inviting us to unite, to unite in grateful, reverent, faithful, prayerful memory of a man we love and buy or miss already, Pastor Timothy Keller. Thank you, Cardinal Dolan, for your kind words. It's the other way around. We are so thankful for the sweet relationship you had with my father, and we are grateful to be allowed to use this building to remember him. So thank you, and thank you for all those who are providing for us today to be here. Please turn to page two in your program. The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. As one whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort you, and you shall be comforted. Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. What are we here to do this afternoon? After the death of a Christian, we unite to do two things always. First, we thank God for his life, for God's goodness and lending him to us for the years that we had with him. Secondly, we seek God for our life, for his comfort and presence. We aren't here just for him. We are also here for us. We need to get what we need from his Lord so that we can continue to live our lives in this world with confidence and with joy. That's what we're here to do. So let's pray with one voice all together saying, almighty and most merciful God, you are of the sorrowful and the support of the weary. Look down in tender love and pity on your servants whose joy has been turned to grief so that while we breathe we may not sink but resign ourselves into your hands to be taught comfort remembering all your mercies and promises and love in Jesus Christ who brings life out of death and can turn wailing into dancing and deep grief into deep eternal joy. We ask it in the name of him who taught us to pray say our father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever amen. I love my father so I find it fitting and in true Tim Keller fashion that he planned out his own memorial service for us this afternoon. Both with my mother and him they hand -picked each of the next five hymns that we are going to sing from finding out who God is to developing a personal relationship with this God to using the resources God gives us to finally being united to Jesus in death. My father gave us even the very words that he wanted to introduce each hymn from when he was read now to honor him for the first hymn immortal invisible God only wise Tim Keller on page four of your bulletin says this I chose each hymn and there's an order to them so the first one immortal invisible God only wise is a tremendous depiction of who God is and his attributes it's really all about God who is he and what's really interesting is some of the lines in here summarizing the most important Christian ideas I've never seen summarized better so for example we're here at a cancer hospital and sometimes you want to say God what in the world are you up to what's wrong with you and the last line in the hymn is this tis only the splendor of light hideth thee there's a tendency for us to think there's a darkness in God and we're smart to instead say well wait a minute no he's more light than we can handle and the darkness is in us tis only the splendor of light hideth thee please stand to sing our first hymn together is By soaring above, by clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.

Stem cells you know. You cut out the tumor but you still have circulating cells and you know that's what you need keep addressing to prevent recurrence than you know. That was a big lesson for me.

That was such an important part of you that may be overlooked. Yes so well. I think part of it was the the irony that this time. The the lump was right over. My heart literally was like last time it was both but actually the the invasive breast cancer was on my right side but this time the lump is right over my heart which again made super easy decision. No i'm not radiating that i don't want to do with my heart like right under there so it was just you know i just was. I just looked at my life. And you know i had been kind of holding onto living in a relationship. That wasn't really working right. Speak for my kids but then at what point unlike well.

And i the only drawback that i find in which is not really a drawback is that i had to adjust the way that i look at the things that i want to buy to wear right absolutely no cleavage like none. Because there's nothing there. So avi has to be a really specific type of v in order for me to wear. I took some pictures with addressing. My sister gave me for my for my fifty second birthday last year and it looks amazing. I don't think anybody has ever noticed that. I have no breasts under that dress. But the v. comes all the way down probably almost two naval. So it's really interesting but it's you know an and looking for bathing suits. I have to consider that. I can't do a cup. I have to do something that looks different but are small things to worry about. These are really small things when you're considering that you're protecting your health and your protecting and and you know i'm i'm healthy. I it's been you know there. Nothing showing up. I don't feel anything so know. So far i'm healthy and i'm like what i like to. Just keep it that way rather than some stories. I've heard where people have gone through surgery after surgery after five years they're still doing surgeries because of different things that that they're trying to adjust they wanna fit or it's not working or they're developing some other thing and i'm like no it's okay. We're moving on from good for you. So there's always a life before and after cancer right and cancer is a turning point for us all and you know i tell women community. It's not just about getting rid of that. Lumper bomb right.

"So it takes a lot of courage to make that decision now You chose not to have had a double mastectomy and the show's not to have implants and after you went through all the problems with your you know the what do they panders. Six hundred infections falls. Look your thin in. The new made the decision that you were okay out there so so. Let's talk about that. Because i heard women in our community you know. Don't jump into the rhine and into the fire after you've just gone through surgery to start putting more things in your body the into react to in your body's already trying to heal and you know it's just too much so let's talk about that. Why why who needs breasts right like you said right. You know i was fifty years old. My breasts had served their purpose. I'd never been connected to my breasts in such a way you know. I didn't have big breasts. I didn't have breast that you know stood out in any way and so i thought to myself you know why. Why put myself through anything you know to get that back when molly getting older and unlike any honestly it's so freeing because i don't ever wear a bra now if i do to where my prosthetics it's like. They're so heavy artillery. Get in the way again the way but i you know the decision i made was because it was. It was a calculated decision. I thought about it right. I never i didn't realize. And i think maybe one of the things is that happens is that you're encouraged to do a double mastectomy with reconstruction because the idea being that you're gonna watch your breasts back right which i get. I think that it'd be better if we had time in between to think about. Do we really need that. And because i had that opportunity to have that time. Because i had the infections and we had to let my body heal before they could put in the expanders again I had that time to think about it. And my doctor said. I'll give you a prescription for prosthetics and i said great. So i went in and this woman is showing these prosthetic. She showed me these bras. And and i said to her i said you tell me that i can have breasts on demand like when i want to bet. She said sure she said you can do it. We can fix all a lot of your close to to fit your president. And i said so. Then why would i do surgery. You know and that was the question that i ask myself. Why would i do surgery if i if that was an auction and so you know i thought about it. I talked to my husband about it. And then i decided you know what i'm i don't need to do it. I'm just not gonna do it. I didn't want to open myself up to more more surgery. More opportunity for infection just because every time in it doesn't really matter what type of surgery having been every time you go into surgery. You're opening up your body to the possibility of infection or complication and it doesn't really matter what it is. You're doing so i said no. I don't think i want to do it and so talk to my parents. My mom was like oh. That's good good for you. You know so now. I've gotten so used to not having breasts.

"And the moment that i knew he was safe and it wasn't my job to keep him alive. I literally collapsed. It hit required so much energy and so much cortisol to kind of do everything for all. That time that i i could barely get out of bed. The kids were five and seven. I would wake up with them. Make them breakfast or lunch. Chicken to school come home set the alarm for right before pickup. Pick them up. You know an and i. I knew enough i knew it was my journals what remedies were supposed to be helping. I was trying to eat all the right things and ingest authorites implements and nothing helped and finally a good friend. I had helped her with a big event and so she was interested in oils. And was gifting you this big box as a thank you. But when she dropped them off she said something. That really intrigued me. She said you know you've been so hydrocortisone for so long. Which causes such inflammation. I bet your gut is toast and nothing. You're ingesting actually getting into your system oils can go through your skin. You know you can try that. And i thought why not have nothing else to lose. You know i might as well so i. I had been practising a technique called muscle testing. where you. It's basically an easy way to identify. What remedy is gonna help. So i muscle tested the box of thirty oils and found a five that i combined to make an adrenal formula. Put it on my lower back and felt great. felt like myself and i thought okay now worked. That was a win. You know and then That night stress and insomnia tend to go together because when your cortisol levels are off it impacts your sleep hormone melatonin. So i was doing my clock watching routine know ten twelve ten twenty one ten thirty two around that time. I thought. I wonder. I wonder if oils could help with melatonin so i went downstairs to the kitchen. Made my second formula. And i knew because i played with tropical melatonin the past a new area right above the years. The skin was really thin. And that the pineal gland was in the middle of the brains and like i'll try it worked so well probably the best night of sleep. I hadn't a year. And i thought okay that it kept working and i kept just making things up that helped and then when i started to feel better my friends were like. Let's see what you're doing. let me try it. It worked for them at work for their clients. So then they were like. You should do something with us samantha. This is so obvious. I'm sure someone's doing this. So went online to research and was really surprised that no one had a was kind of looking at oils through the lens of physiology and also that they made it so complicated. I was almost grateful that my mental capacity was zero. Because i would have felt unqualified. Never would've tried it as right like you. You you know all these big companies like single oils and there's combination oils Who's just so. Many women can be very overwhelming for.

"Welcome everybody to another amazing episode of wellness warriors. Today i have a very very special guest dear to my heart. Mary beth gonzalez because she is the widow of dr nick. Gonzalez and i was a firm believer in his methodology of treating patients. And i read some of his books. Here's one of them. That will be diving into here shortly but really appreciated all the work that he did for his patients. Another book that i read his was the conquering cancer. Fifty pancreatic and breast cancer patients on his protocol. So i was so impressed with how she handled those cases. So thank you so much. Mary beth for joining us.

The world of marketing and nick definitely understood the world of medicine but he did quite always understand the best way to package himself to the public whether it's from his websites perspective or even the presentation that he would give conferences. They nephew ever listened. To one of doc nickens videos in a lot of them on youtube. He spoke Anybody ever heard in your whole life. And he spoke for three hours without a single note. And i i remember when i first went to one of his lectures i said to him. You're honey a couple slides because you talk so quickly. Some people in the audience might need some help to keep up. So that's one of the things that i would do as a coach and then and then of course i got to make the slides and that of course. He asked me to run the slides while presenting sick. I don't know how to use a computer. So that's how we work together in his lifetime for me to help further his practice. That's wonderful amazing. So why the new book. Well i have spent the five years since nick died a very focused on preserving his legacy and you held up one of the books on nutrition the on nervous system that i published a couple years ago..

"I'm so excited to be here with you into share some personal thoughts about my second healing journey and essential number four. Heal the emotional wounds now. When i was going through my second healing i recognized that there was the need to really take a deep dive. Into all of these central's the today. I'm going to talk specifically about essential number four because i feel that healing emotional wounds is often the most challenging part of healing. We are multitaskers. We are really good at taking care of people but we often tend to neglect ourselves. And we put ourselves last on the to-do list. And so i want to really encourage you to listen closely and if any of the things that i talk about really resonate with you i encourage you to ride them in your journal are riding on a post it note. But go back to this after you've listened to the podcast because these are the things that can truly be transformational. Remember that a breast cancer. Healing journey is not just about getting rid of the the lump or the cancer. But it's about a complete transformation of your life because what brought you to the point of developing breast cancer in the first place is what you need to change. So it's about transformation is like that cocoon the caterpillar cocoon to the butterfly. Its transformation now personally. My biggest takeaways from my healing journey as far as my emotions are concerned. Were two things number one. I recognized for the first time in my life what it was like to live in the relaxation response. All my life. I had my nose to the grindstone and i was a personality. Push push push. Even when i didn't physically feel like pushing. I would push my body to the point of a new my detriment now. Getting into the relaxation response is something that is so key because if we have our foot on the accelerator and we are activating the sympathetic nervous system. The fighter flight mode there studies that have shown us that that can literally trigger cancer genes to turn on and it increases the risk for metastasis. So that alone should be a motivation for you to look at essential number four and to learn to get into the relaxation response. I have trained my body and my mind that when i feel stress in my body i stop and i pulled back and i am. I really make the effort to go into that relaxation mode the second big takeaway for me on my second healing journey was that i now take the time to nurture that little girl. That little girl inside of me was very wounded. Little girl for decades not until late forties early fifties. Did i realize that. I was living the life of an adult but with the wounded child making those decisions for me and so now i take the time to do more things that bring me joy in that little girl joy and do more things that that bring pleasure because that's something that i neglected most of my life so when we talk about healing our emotions are several things we we want to look at first of all. If you're a good stuffer do you find that. You're always fine. Know people ask you how you doing on fine. That's what we call a good stuffer right. We we have feelings. We have thoughts. We have energy but we just keep swallowing swallowing swallowing. Because we don't wanna take the time to really take a look at what's what's happening. What's bothering us. There's a quote from dr lisa. Rankin that. I really like. When i read her book a mind over medicine and she says if you don't grow you grow a tumor. And that's so true because not internal conflicts that we have causes a stress response. You may not recognize it as a stress response. Perhaps you're used to living that way that tension that you have in your body all the time but it's that tension in that inner conflict that can you know lead to depression can lead to stress can lead to disease in your body suppression leads to depression. That's been shown time and time again right. It's going to affect your immune system on the flip side if you focus on calm and kindness and love. You're gonna be activating your parents of nerve system. That's the break. That's the one that keeps you slow down. That's the relaxation response. Then you're going to be creating hormones like endorphins and oxytocin and those are the kinds of feelings that we want to focus on and and scientists shown us to that those chemicals that we release that chemical soup that we live in if it's a stressful soup versus a love soup. It's going to make a huge difference in your overall health and even affect your mitochondria. Now how do we know that our body and our thoughts affects us physically. Well if you've ever seen a polygraph test or you you blushed. Blushing is is an example of thought creating a chemical reaction in your body. So when you tell a lie or when you're under stress a polygraph can measure change in heart rate increased blood pressure increased breathing increased muscle tension temperature changes. All of these things can affect our body physically.

"Welcome everybody to another amazing episode of wellness warriors. Today i do have another warrior. S they'd breast cancer conqueror sascha light star and. I really appreciate saskia story because she went through the physical journey of breast cancer and she mentions that it was very traumatic and she realized that on the other side of the journey that physical journey. She needed to figure out who she was. And what the full journey Taught her so. Thank you so fast yet for joining us and sharing your story. Thank you so much for having me up to be excited to hear your story and sharing were community now. Amazing you've got a book that's coming out through. Hey house called the cancer nist fit. So it's a little bit about your book. So i created the time. The cancer misfit. 'cause i i didn't feel like a cancer survivor. I didn't want to always feel like i was surviving. And that wasn't that wasn't an identity that i could relate to and the misfit felt i was this and before i was diagnosed and then i went through breast cancer treatment and by the time much finished. Become somebody else and it was like. Who was i now. Where did i fit in my old life. Gone what comes next and i felt like missed it. So that's why i i came up with the time. The cancer misfit and a lot of my followers on social media can really relate because they were like. I feel misfit to yeah we call them the lone ranger you know they. They feel so along. There's so many people that can't relate to them and so that's why communities is so important so tell us about that moment. When you heard the words you have breast cancer what what happened. What went on in your mind. Invited them bearing wall. And i wrote about the semi catch for me. When when i got diagnosed it felt like a switch went on and i went straight into survival mode. It was like the doctor told me. I had cancer and i went into survival. Written was like right. What am i going to do. Because i don't want to die. I feel like. I didn't feel the emotions i didn't i didn't hit me. That's essentially. why wrote this book. Because when treatment finished. And i had made sure didn't die. That's when survival mode switched off and suddenly. I was hit with all these emotions about what i've been through and the thoughts and that's when things came out of control from the wasn't during the treatments it was offer. It was so distracted with the chemo. The reconstruction you know the radiation. We don't. I didn't have time to go pull me me. But by the end of it it was kind of like i just been hit by. Was what the hell just happened. So you were focused. You're focused on getting through the process in healing and and us what i really appreciate about women who choose conventional treatments because you know what's ahead You know that you're going to get sick. You know it's going to be very hard that you're committed and you're going to go through it and you're gonna come out on the other end you know much Better person you know in the in the fact that you've been through that journey now you talk about the cancer cocoon talk about that what you mean by that. So as i said i kind of switched onto the survival mode. And then i just. I went through the treatments and when the treatment stopped and i looked at myself in the mirror i looked the same. I fence completely fundamentally different and that's when i came up with this idea of with some focused on staying alive with so focused on doctor's appointments and sokha cancer cancer but we don't realize that while we going through this trauma essentially when we go through any hectic trauma inside if you've as incredible what going on you know to keep you sane and to get you through it and things realigning and moving around and shifting we'd realize because we're so distracted with cancer the i believe that's why a lot of people feel like one person when they're diagnosed and somebody else by the time they finish treatment because there's stuff going on but you don't know that it's happening so true that such and that's something that we always discuss in in our community in that same thing happened for me and i use the metamorphosis or the the analogy of the curriculum metamorphosis and there's a lot of things going on and it may be dark scary and lonely but if you trust the process you will come out on the other side happier and healthier you and so one of the things that you mentioned is self low. That's one of the big that you learned from your journey and i can relate to ask because my second healing journey i i realized that it was okay to say no boundaries was okay for me to take time for myself to nurture that little girl inside and not being nose to the grindstone. All the time helping somebody else. When i needed i needed healing so talk about that experience with you and sell flow. Wow well that was a fake one for me. And i have to say if somebody like me enough herself so completely and utterly the way i do now than anyone can because i spent my life rating myself beating myself up and just pulling myself down. I was awful to me and going through the hell of cancer treatment and getting to the other side of it as much as i said it was a council cocoon. I didn't feel like about supply the other side. I thought the butterfly was me when i was diagnosed an hour. I was this broken ugly thing and that forced me to dig deep and learn what south love really is because i'd always placed on my confidence and self belief and wideness to myself and other people on outside appearances and actually was a blessing that the things i love most about myself. Which was my fabulous cleavage in. My hat was stolen from me because then it was like. Oh okay how am i gonna feel beautiful now and i thought it exploring and finding these incredible tools and ways of learning to love myself and i've never looked back and it's literally made my life purpose now to show the women how to fool madly in love with exactly how that's really sweet. I was thinking about your heart shape. Nipples.
