The Health Confidential with Simone Gisondi

Burnout — the Biological Bankruptcy Hiding Behind ‘High Functioning' with Mika Altidor

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 11:28:59 GMT

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi explores burnout through a powerful and unconventional lens—biological bankruptcy. Rather than viewing burnout as a personal failure or lack of resilience, Simone frames it as an intelligent message from the body signaling that something in our way of living, nourishing, and relating to ourselves must change. Grounded in self-education and self-respect, this conversation is offered for educational purposes only, inviting listeners to research, reflect, and work with trusted practitioners as they reclaim their health.

Joining Simone is Mika Altidor, a dynamic entrepreneur, vegan café owner, co-host of Get Obsessed, and creator of manifestation-inspired products. Mika describes herself as a seeker of truth—someone committed to growth, curiosity, and becoming better than she was yesterday. She shares how her entrepreneurial spirit was shaped by her father, a Haitian immigrant and serial entrepreneur whose resilience, work ethic, and devotion to family modeled what it meant to provide, serve, and persevere against the odds.

Mika opens up about her deeply personal healing journey, tracing the roots of her health challenges to childhood stress, emotional suppression, and chronic people-pleasing that eventually manifested as fibroids and severe abdominal pain. Through self-directed research and radical responsibility for her well-being, she transitioned away from inflammatory foods, eliminated dairy, and embraced a vegan lifestyle—experiencing rapid improvements in her symptoms. This transformation led to the creation of a thriving vegan baking business, which scaled quickly and brought outward success, but also quietly ushered in extreme work hours, loss of self-care, and profound burnout. Together, Simone and Mika unpack the hidden cost of success, the emotional–physical connection, and what it truly means to listen when the body asks for change.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Burnout is not weakness—it is biological communication signaling unsustainable patterns of living.

• Self-education around health is a powerful act of self-respect and autonomy.

• Being a seeker of truth, even when uncomfortable, creates long-term freedom and growth.

• Childhood stress, emotional suppression, and people-pleasing can manifest as physical illness later in life.

• Food can be both medicine and service, supporting healing while connecting us to others.

• Rapid success can conceal burnout when self-care, identity, and embodiment are neglected.

BEST MOMENTS

• “So many people today are so exhausted, depleted, confused and probably asking themselves, how do I keep going without burning myself into the ground?”

• “I'm definitely a seeker of truth… even if it's truth that's not pretty.”

• “I like to describe myself as someone that wants to be better than yesterday.”

• “It’s about curiosity… learning how to nourish our body intelligently and compassionately.”

• “I immediately said, I think I can heal this.”

• “This chapter is titled, ‘The beginning of burning out.’”

On the True Art of Beauty - A conversation with Nadine Artemis

Sat, 24 Jan 2026 12:19:26 GMT

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Nadine Artemis, founder of Living Libations, for a luminous and paradigm-shifting conversation about the true nature of beauty. Rather than approaching beauty as something to correct or improve, Nadine reframes it as a remembrance of the body’s innate coherence, vitality, and intelligence. Sharing her journey from a curious teenage “formulator” to a pioneer in botanical alchemy, she reveals how essential oils, true natural ingredients, and reverence for the skin as a living organ form the foundation of her philosophy.

Together, Simone and Nadine unpack the hidden realities of the modern beauty and fragrance industries—petrochemical-based formulations, endocrine-disrupting synthetics, and widespread greenwashing masked by token “natural” ingredients. Nadine explains the extraordinary nature of essential oils: chemically complex, antimicrobial, non-rancid, and profoundly active both physiologically and energetically. The conversation expands beyond skincare into the emotional, spiritual, and even cosmic dimensions of beauty—how scent unlocks memory, how oils communicate with the nervous system, and how reconnecting with sun, air, earth, and intentional rituals can restore radiance from the inside out. This episode is an invitation to rethink beauty as a holistic, systemic expression of health and consciousness.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Beauty is remembrance, not correction—true radiance reflects internal coherence and vitality.
The skin is a detoxification organ; what we apply topically can enter the body, especially with heat and sun exposure.
Essential oils are chemically dense, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and active both transdermally and neurologically.
Botanical application is a dialogue between plant intelligence and the body’s own consciousness.
Holistic beauty includes lifestyle elements—sunlight, fresh air, earth contact, scalp and oral care, and aligned daily rituals.

BEST MOMENTS

“Her work doesn’t treat beauty as something to be achieved, but rather as something to be remembered as coherence in the body, as vitality and aliveness.”
“It’s the outpouring of the nectar from the plants… of our relationship to the cosmos.”
“Most beauty… the ingredients in there are not even neutral to our health. They’re, you know, negative impact.”
“Sometimes when you’re near someone who’s wearing one of those mainstream perfumes… your own ability to breathe just drops drastically. That’s your body telling you something.”
“What kind of vibration and what kind of frequency do you bring into the body, even through one of the organs, which is the skin?”
“To me, essential oils can be a part of that… that interface between what’s form and formless.”
“They affect us transdermally, even if you had no sense of smell… and then it leaves the body, which is also what we want.”

Detoxification Beyond the Physical: Why you need to love yourself to help your body heal with Dr Darrell Wolfe

Mon, 22 Dec 2025 12:16:03 GMT

In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Dr. Darrell Wolfe, famously known as the “Doc of Detox,” for a bold and unconventional conversation about the real roots of health and disease. Drawing on over four decades of experience in holistic health, Dr. Wolfe challenges mainstream medical paradigms and emphasizes “radical responsibility”—the necessity for individuals to reclaim accountability and power over their own well-being. The discussion covers the limitations of conventional medicine, the transformative potential of self-awareness, and the power of emotional and physical detoxification.

Dr. Wolfe highlights the critical role of gut health, particularly the large intestine, in preventing and reversing chronic illnesses. He explains how unprocessed emotions, self-judgment, and societal conditioning can manifest as disease, and he shares compelling real-life examples that demonstrate the connection between emotional release and physical healing. Listeners are encouraged to embrace self-love, question limiting beliefs, and take an active role in their holistic wellness journey. This episode is both a wake-up call and a guide to living with empowered health, emotional clarity, and radical self-responsibility.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Radical self-responsibility is essential for true healing.
Gut health, especially the large intestine, is central to preventing chronic disease.
Suppressed emotions and self-judgment directly impact physical health.
Conventional medicine often disempowers individuals and pathologizes natural processes.
Questioning societal and psychological conditioning is necessary to break free and heal.

BEST MOMENTS

“The greatest detox you'll ever do is when you have unconditional love for yourself and you never judge yourself or put yourself down again.”
“What you cannot process, you will store, and that's all the way from a pimple to a boil to a cyst to a fibroid to a tumor.”
“Psychological patterns actually shape biology. And that true transformation actually begins with self-responsibility and awareness.”
“Anything that was created by you can be reversed. There's no such thing as genetic disease. There is no such thing. That's a lie.”
“If you believe anything that medical doctors say, well, shame, shame on you. And God love them anyway.”

Throughout the discussion, Dr. Morse explains the vital role of the lymphatic system as the body’s primary detox pathway, highlighting how kidney weakness and protein-heavy diets contribute to chronic disease. The conversation also explores the emotional and spiritual roots of illness, emphasizing how unresolved emotions and adrenal stress impact physical health. Together, Simone and Dr. Morse challenge conventional medical narratives and remind listeners that true healing begins with awareness, emotional alignment, and trust in the body’s innate intelligence.

The Body That Defied Illness: Rethinking What Makes Us Sick with Savannah Alalia

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 12:32:52 GMT

In this eye-opening episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Savannah Alalia, a renowned fascia detox and well-being expert with over 30 years of experience in holistic healing. From her raw food upbringing to her transformative work in emotional and physical detox, Savannah shares how deep body awareness and emotional processing can unlock the body’s innate healing intelligence.

Her story takes a profound turn when she recounts her partner’s life-threatening diagnoses—AIDS, hepatitis C, and lymphatic tuberculosis—and the astonishing reality that, despite years of close and intimate contact, she remained completely healthy. This experience defied medical explanation and challenged long-held beliefs about illness, contagion, and the body’s natural capacity to heal.

Through this powerful conversation, Savannah and Simone explore the emotional roots of disease, the body’s divine intelligence, and how unprocessed trauma manifests in physical symptoms. Savannah’s journey is both deeply personal and universally resonant, inviting listeners to reconsider what true health really means and how we can all reconnect with the wisdom of our bodies.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The body possesses divine intelligence and an extraordinary ability to self-heal
Emotional processing and self-awareness are essential for true well-being
Contagion may not operate as traditionally taught in medical science
Unresolved emotions often manifest as physical illness
Early emotional expression can help prevent future health issues

BEST MOMENTS (direct quotes)

“I remember checking in with my body thinking, you're okay, there's nothing for you to worry about.”
“Maybe contagion, as we think of it, is something completely different.”
“I was completely clear. I was completely clear of every single disease.”
“Even the doctors were kind of scratching their heads... I don't understand this. I've never seen anything like this.”

Gut Health, Vaccines, and the Next Frontier of Medicine – with Dr. Andrew Wakefield

Thu, 09 Oct 2025 12:22:24 GMT

In this powerful episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi speaks with Dr. Andrew Wakefield, a British gastroenterologist whose professional path shifted from respected medical researcher to one of the most controversial voices in vaccine safety. His early work at the Royal Free Hospital in London uncovered severe gastrointestinal issues in autistic children—conditions that had been largely ignored by mainstream medicine. By listening to parents and investigating the gut-brain connection, Dr. Wakefield found that treating gut inflammation could improve neurological symptoms, sparking a debate that would reshape his career.

Challenging medical orthodoxy came at a steep personal and professional cost. Dr. Wakefield faced widespread persecution, the loss of his medical license, and ultimately, exile from the traditional medical establishment. Determined to continue raising awareness, he transitioned to filmmaking, producing documentaries like Vaxxed to highlight what he describes as systemic flaws in vaccine research and medical reporting.

This candid conversation invites listeners to reflect on the meaning of true scientific integrity. Dr. Wakefield’s journey underscores the importance of putting patient health before professional reputation and raises pressing questions about how medicine approaches research, safety, and accountability in protecting public health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Children with autism often had severe gut inflammation that was overlooked by doctors
Treating gut health showed improvements in neurological symptoms
Vaccine safety studies were inadequate, often conducted on institutionalized children without proper oversight
Allegations of destroyed CDC data on vaccine risks raise questions about transparency
New research suggests vaccinated children may face higher rates of chronic illness

BEST MOMENTS (direct quotes)

“We have a professional and moral obligation to take that very, very seriously.”
“They put themselves first. And it was very sad.”
“There wasn’t one [proper controlled study]. What I found is that the early safety studies of these vaccines were conducted on children in institutions... without any regard to their health or well-being.”
“If you don’t want to publish the truth, whether it supports your hypothesis or not, then you’re not a scientist. Get out of science.”

The Body Remembers: A Path to Healing with Amy-Noelle Shih

Tue, 26 Aug 2025 11:58:34 GMT

In this deeply revealing episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Relationship Therapist and Life Coach Amy-Noelle Shih to explore the powerful truth that our bodies remember what our minds often forget.

Together, they dive into how emotional wounds, suppressed feelings, and even ancestral experiences live on in our cells and tissues—often manifesting as illness or dysfunction when ignored. Through honest storytelling and professional wisdom, Simone and Amy-Noelle illuminate the path of returning to the body, cultivating self-compassion, and reparenting the inner child as essential steps toward true healing.

Listeners are invited to question how much of their own suffering may be echoes of unprocessed emotions, and how learning to hear the body’s signals can unlock resilience, authenticity, and wholeness.

Whether you’re navigating personal trauma, seeking to reconnect with your body, or supporting someone on their healing journey, this episode is a powerful reminder that the body is not the enemy—it’s the guide.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The body holds memories and traumas long after the mind suppresses or forgets them
Emotional suppression and self-abandonment often result in illness and dysregulation
Escapism (work, food, gaming) is usually avoidance of discomfort
Healing begins with listening to the body, not just the mind
Reparenting the inner child with compassion restores authenticity and balance
The body’s physical symptoms can be signals of unresolved emotional wounds

BEST MOMENTS

“What if our cells remember what our minds forgot?”
“The body just doesn’t lie. It carries what has been unprocessed.”
“When we live outside of our body, our intuition is turned off.”
“Every breakdown is really your body saying: see me, hear me, I can’t live this way.”
“The body is an ally and should be met with compassion and love.”

How The Feminization of Men Happened

Tue, 08 Jul 2025 12:20:53 GMT

In this bold and eye-opening episode of Health Confidential, Simone dives into one of the most provocative topics in modern health and society: the silent crisis of male feminization.

With thoughtful analysis and historical context, Simone unpacks how environmental toxins, endocrine disruptors, cultural shifts, and poor lifestyle choices have contributed to a decline in male vitality—and what can be done to reclaim strength, clarity, and masculine health in today’s world.

This is a must-listen for anyone—male or female—who wants to understand how external forces are reshaping biology and behavior, and how to fight back through empowered, holistic living.

Low testosterone, infertility, and loss of drive are symptoms of a deeper imbalance.
Regaining masculine energy starts with detoxification, nourishment, and aligned lifestyle habits.
True health honors both masculine and feminine energies—in their rightful balance.

BEST MOMENTS:

Healing Through the Fire – Grief, Burnout, and the Beauty of Palliative Wisdom with Dr. Emma Jones

Thu, 15 May 2025 22:56:18 GMT

In this profound episode of Health Confidential, we are joined by Dr. Emma Jones, a compassionate palliative care physician and spiritual healer, as we navigate the emotional terrain of grief, burnout, and the healing power found in life’s most difficult transitions. Drawing from her extensive work in hospitals and hospices, Dr. Jones shares the tender truths that emerge at the edge of life and death—and how these lessons can transform our health, perspective, and inner peace.

Dr. Jones invites us to explore how listening, presence, and spiritual openness play vital roles in caring for those in pain. She explains how burnout, often seen as weakness, is a sacred signal calling us back to our humanity and inner wisdom. Through her stories and insights, we discover that healing isn’t always about curing—it’s about connection, authenticity, and love.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Grief is a portal to deeper self-understanding and healing.
Burnout is a message, not a failure—it invites us to realign with our values.
Palliative care is not just end-of-life care, but whole-person healing.
Holding space and presence is more powerful than “fixing.”
True healing is rooted in empathy, intuition, and spiritual connection.

BEST MOMENTS:

“Burnout is not about being weak—it’s about being too strong for too long.” – Dr. Emma Jones
“People want to be heard, not cured. Healing begins when we listen.”
“The dying often teach us how to live.”

Cancer is a Metabolic Disease – with Dr. Thomas Seyfried

Tue, 22 Apr 2025 10:54:08 GMT

In this groundbreaking episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with Dr. Thomas Seyfried, a pioneering researcher and professor at Boston College, to challenge everything you think you know about cancer. Moving beyond the conventional genetic model, Dr. Seyfried presents compelling evidence that cancer is, in fact, a metabolic disease—a theory with powerful implications for prevention, treatment, and recovery.

Through science-backed insights and decades of research, Dr. Seyfried explores how cancer cells thrive on glucose and how therapeutic strategies like the ketogenic diet, fasting, and metabolic therapies can starve cancer at its root. Together, Simone and Dr. Seyfried uncover what this paradigm shift means for patients and practitioners alike—and why addressing mitochondrial health may be the missing piece in truly healing cancer.

This is an essential listen for anyone touched by cancer, seeking truth, or looking for hope beyond the mainstream narrative.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Cancer is not just a genetic disease—it’s primarily a metabolic disorder.
Nutrition and metabolic therapy play a pivotal role in disrupting cancer growth.
Ketosis and fasting can be powerful tools in targeting cancer’s fuel source.
Mitochondrial dysfunction is at the heart of many chronic diseases, including cancer.
Understanding the root cause of cancer changes how we approach healing.

BEST MOMENTS

“Cancer isn’t something you catch—it’s something your body can no longer control.”
“If you deprive cancer of its fuel, it can’t survive.”
“We have more power than we realize when it comes to preventing and treating cancer.”

Unlocking Freedom: Understanding Your Rights and the Law with Brandon Joe Williams

Sun, 06 Oct 2024 23:00:00 GMT

In this episode, Simone welcomes Brandon Joe Williams, a legal expert and educator, who shares his insights on autonomy, freedom, and the often-overlooked laws that govern our lives. Brandon discusses his journey from a dental office worker to a thought leader in legal education, emphasizing the importance of understanding the definitions and implications of legal terms, particularly about driving and ownership. He elaborates on his book, "Don't Be a Slave to Your Clients," which advocates for setting boundaries in business and offers a unique approach to client education through free courses.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Once individuals learn how to effectively perform on negotiable instruments, the likelihood of being sued decreases significantly, although there may be restrictions on account usage or payment methods.
The approach to selling and marketing can be transformed by creating valuable educational content, such as free courses, which can lead to higher client satisfaction and lower price resistance.
The definitions of terms like "driver," "motor vehicle," and "operate" are crucial in legal contexts, particularly in traffic stops. Misunderstanding or assuming these definitions can lead to self-incrimination.
Individuals have the right to remain silent and not provide information that could incriminate them. This right is essential in legal situations, especially during traffic stops.
When individuals register their vehicles, they may unknowingly enter into a trust agreement with the state, which can complicate their perceived ownership and rights regarding the vehicle.

BEST MOMENTS

"The chances of them coming after you once you start performing differently on a negotiable instrument is very, very low."

"If you look on, let's say, for example, in California, if you look on the certificate of title, you'll see that your name is listed under a section called registered owner."

"The officer is the one who has to prove that claim. Now, I don't see any hope in hell unless a fucking receipt or something flew out the window."

"A lot of men don't even skim the surface of finding themselves, much less to try to understand the dance between the masculine and the feminine."

"If the police officer or anybody else decides they want to charge you, let's say, for example, for speeding... the officer is the one who has to prove that."

Viruses Do Not Exist with Tom Cowan

Tue, 01 Oct 2024 09:02:01 GMT

In this episode, Simone sits down with Tom Cowan, a renowned medical director and researcher known for challenging mainstream medical narratives. They discuss Tom's controversial views on viruses, particularly in relation to COVID-19, as presented in his book "The Contagion Myth." Tom argues that viruses, including the coronavirus, are not the true causes of disease and critiques the widely accepted germ theory. He emphasizes the lack of scientific evidence supporting the existence of viruses and shares insights on how conventional virology fails to prove contagion.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The argument presented claims that no one has ever definitively shown the existence of a virus, challenging the conventional understanding of viruses as causative agents of disease.
The discussion emphasizes that the principle of contagion, which suggests that sick individuals can make healthy individuals sick, has been disproven through various studies. It is argued that shared symptoms among individuals do not necessarily indicate transmission from one to another.
The process by which virologists claim to isolate and identify viruses is critiqued as flawed. The methods described involve using contaminated samples and various chemicals, which do not provide conclusive evidence of a virus's existence or its role in causing disease.
The conversation promotes a holistic view of health, suggesting that symptoms and diseases are often the body's responses to environmental toxins, poor nutrition, or emotional stress, rather than the result of viral infections.
There is a call for skepticism regarding mainstream medical narratives, particularly concerning vaccinations and the perceived dangers of viruses. The discussion encourages individuals to question established beliefs and seek alternative explanations for health and illness.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you follow that understanding, that reasoning, you come to the conclusion very easily that nobody has ever shown the existence of a virus."

"The thing that's really got my attention lately is we actually live in a profoundly scientifically illiterate culture."

"If you want to prove that it's caused by a bacteria, and it's transmissible between people, the way you have to do that is isolate the bacteria."

"You literally just dismantled the entire idea of what they've been pushing on us for since the beginning of medicine."

Demystifying Hormone Health: Insights from Rise HRT Experts

Sun, 22 Sep 2024 23:00:00 GMT

Simone engages in an enlightening conversation with Matt and Kara from Rise HRT, exploring the critical role of hormones in overall health. They explore the importance of functional medicine and how it differs from traditional approaches to hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Matt shares his personal journey, highlighting the impact of family health issues on his career path, while Kara discusses her transition from corporate finance to functional health. Together, they emphasise the significance of addressing root causes of hormonal imbalances, such as gut health and stress, rather than merely treating symptoms.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Functional Medicine Approach: RISE HRT emphasises a functional medicine approach, focusing on identifying and addressing the root causes of hormonal imbalances rather than merely treating symptoms. This includes comprehensive blood work and lifestyle assessments to understand each patient's unique health situation.
Importance of Hormone Balance: Maintaining hormone levels within a natural range is crucial for overall health. Overdosing on hormones, particularly testosterone in women, can lead to adverse effects such as androgen dominance, which can cause conditions like PCOS and insulin resistance.
Personal Experiences Drive Passion: Both Matt and Kara share personal health journeys that motivated them to pursue functional medicine. Their experiences with hormonal issues and family health challenges have fueled their commitment to helping others achieve better health outcomes.
Risks of Traditional Hormone Replacement Therapy: Traditional hormone replacement therapies, such as pellet therapy, often involve administering high doses of hormones without proper monitoring, which can lead to imbalances and health risks. RISE HRT advocates for minimal effective dosing and regular follow-ups to adjust treatment as needed.
Role of Nutrition and Lifestyle: Nutrition and lifestyle factors play a significant role in hormone health. Chronic stress, poor diet, and lack of proper detoxification can exacerbate hormonal imbalances, highlighting the need for a holistic approach to health that includes dietary and lifestyle modifications alongside hormone therapy.

BEST MOMENTS

"The human body wasn't made for 2024. It was made thousands of years ago for caveman times."

"We shouldn't be having women have this major fear of testosterone and estrogen because outside of things I mentioned, there's also bone and muscle degradation from lack of these hormones."

"I realised like no one knows this, like no one knows that managing their stress can prevent some of this very severe illness."

"The number one thing that differentiates our facility from other facilities is the functional medicine aspect."

"It's much easier to find a scapegoat like hormone therapy to put the blame on."

Harnessing Nature: The Power of Plant Oils in Sun Protection

Sun, 15 Sep 2024 23:00:00 GMT

In this episode, Simone welcomes skincare expert Sylvia Winans to discuss the often-overlooked impact of natural plant oils on skin health and sun protection. Sylvia shares her inspiring journey, which began during her pregnancy when she sought holistic alternatives to chemical sunscreens. Through her research, she discovered the powerful photoprotective properties of various plant-derived compounds, leading to the creation of her innovative product, Quantum Pie.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Exposure to blue light from devices and artificial lighting can damage the skin by causing oxidative stress, affecting collagen and elastin, which are crucial for maintaining skin structure and elasticity.
Plant-derived oils and compounds, such as carotenoids and astaxanthin, not only provide sun protection but also nourish the skin, enhance its defense mechanisms, and support cellular health, making them a holistic alternative to chemical sunscreens.
The effectiveness of natural skincare products lies in the synergy of various phytochemicals. These compounds work together to regenerate each other and provide comprehensive protection and nourishment to the skin.
Diets high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), commonly found in processed seed oils, can lead to chronic inflammation and deplete antioxidants in the body, increasing the risk of sunburn and skin damage.
Emphasizing the body's natural processes, the development of products like Quantum Pie aligns with the philosophy of using nature's wisdom to protect and heal the skin, rather than relying on synthetic chemicals that may disrupt the body's functions.

BEST MOMENTS

"When we are exposed to these blue light devices, the light emitted from them is damaging our skin."

"Plants are really nature's experts in sun protection. They produce thousands of chemicals to support themselves and reduce sun damage."

"The difference between chemical sunscreens is that they only have this one function to stop the UVA or UVB rays from penetrating our skin."

"When we eat a diet rich in carotenoids, our bodies concentrate carotenoids in the most sun-exposed tissues."

"Chronic inflammation in the fat cells of your skin depletes the antioxidants in our blood."

Firing Your Medical Doctor: A Guide to Alternative Cancer Treatment

Sun, 08 Sep 2024 23:00:00 GMT

In Simone's latest episode, Dr. Peter Glidden, a naturopathic powerhouse with over three decades of experience in holistic medicine, challenges the conventional medical approach by emphasizing the importance of treating the underlying causes of illness rather than just managing symptoms. He shares his unique perspective on health, discussing the body's innate ability to heal itself when given the right support.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Medical doctors often attribute diseases to genetics, but holistic practitioners like Dr. Glidden believe in addressing the underlying causes of illnesses rather than just managing symptoms.
The body is viewed as being inhabited by an intelligent spiritual force in holistic medicine, which drives the body's self-healing mechanisms.
Naturopathic medicine focuses on treating the individual rather than the disease, recognizing that each person may require a unique approach to healing.
The medical monopoly and pharmaceutical industry prioritize profit over patient well-being, leading to the suppression of alternative treatments and natural remedies.
Asking critical questions and seeking alternative perspectives when faced with a diagnosis, such as cancer, can empower individuals to make informed decisions about their health care.

BEST MOMENTS

"I could have identical triplets, right? Exactly the same genes, they live in exactly the same house, they eat exactly the same food, they're exposed to exactly the same stress, they all have asthma, and they're each going to need a different treatment in order to recover. Because, you know, they don't have asthma."

"Bobby Kennedy's saying, oh, we're going to stop having children eat processed foods, and that's going to help the childhood illness epidemic. Bullshit, it's not going to. That's not the reason that kids are getting sick."

"Saying that your illness is genetic is like saying, well, I know what causes tornadoes. It's sunlight. You can't have a tornado without a cloud. You can't have a cloud without water vapor. You can't have water vapor without sunlight. So it's sunlight that causes tornadoes."

"The body is inhabited by an intelligent spiritual force which is running the show. Our bodies know how to fix themselves. They want to fix themselves. The body's trying to fix itself all the time, but it needs help. And this is also why the body decomposes after it dies. The spiritual force is no longer there."

The Intricacies of Genetic Modification and Reproductive Health Post-Vaccination

Sun, 25 Aug 2024 23:00:00 GMT

In this latest episode, Simone interviews Dr. Robert Malone, a renowned virologist and immunologist, on the complexities of COVID-19 and the mRNA vaccines. Dr. Malone delves into the potential reproductive impacts of the vaccines, shedding light on the risks associated with genetic modifications in germline tissue. The episode explores the ethical considerations surrounding conception post-vaccination and the challenges of navigating genetic anomalies in reproductive health.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The mRNA vaccines may have an affinity for binding to ovarian tissue, potentially impacting the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis and hormonal cycle variation.
The DNA fragment contamination in mRNA vaccines poses a significant risk, as these fragments are recombinogenic and may interfere with genomic integrity, especially in germline tissue.
Couples wishing to conceive post-vaccination may consider a period of abstinence or barrier contraceptive methods for a month to minimize potential risks of shedding on reproductive health.
The complexity of genetic assessment and ethical considerations surrounding pregnancies post-vaccination require individualized discussions between patients and healthcare providers.
The probability of added risk associated with mRNA vaccines in germinal tissue is modest compared to other factors contributing to genetic anomalies in reproductive health.

BEST MOMENTS

"As a virologist, I've isolated viruses, genetically manipulated viruses, transferred viruses, cultured viruses, titered viruses, titered viruses exist. There's viruses of plants, there's viruses of insects, there's viruses of bacteria, we call them bacteriophage, and viruses are ubiquitous in the world."

"You don't seem to see the rise in all-cause mortality until approximately the time when the vaccine products are starting to be deployed. And so the case is made by some that since you don't see that, there was not a pandemic."

"A form of psi-war was deployed on all of us, this safe and effective narrative. But once they decided that they were going to deploy this psychological manipulation strategy, this coordinated global effort, then they apparently came to the conclusion politically that it was necessary to suppress any voices and any information which would contradict that narrative."

It is important to obtain nutrients primarily from a well-balanced diet, but supplementation may be necessary if dietary intake is insufficient.

BEST MOMENTS

"Because this body of ours is such a sophisticated machine, the inputs are the nutrients that it actually looks for because they play such a crucial role."

"So everything boils down to diet. And I say this a lot of times to people, if you break down the mechanisms of your body, and then the body does not produce what it's supposed to produce, you're going to feel something that the doctor will say is a disease."

"So, you really need to have fruits and vegetables and proteins and fats. You really need to get all of these nutrients in because the body absolutely needs them to be able to function."

"Please stay away from dairy products as your calcium intake. Don't do it. You're going to suffer."

Consider obtaining emergency medical kits from Wellness Company for potential future pandemics, as traditional pharmacies may deny treatment options.

BEST MOMENTS

"The gamble with the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines is they're the genetic code for the spike protein, and so the body can produce an uncontrolled quantity of spike protein for an uncontrolled duration of time."

"The most dangerous vaccine was Moderna, because it had the highest dose of messenger RNA, couldn't control a spike protein."

"The spike protein is the lethal part of the virus. So, if this is the virus, and this is the spike protein on the surface. The genetic code for the spike protein, that's Pfizer and Moderna."

"I want to make sure that the audience knows, I did check your website and the protocol is actually outlined there."

"We appreciate the fact that we have trusted voices such as yours to be able to turn to so that we could get factual information when it comes to health and medicine and what approaches we could take."

Unlocking the Benefits of Fasting: Autophagy and Cellular Repair

Sun, 16 Jun 2024 23:00:00 GMT

In this episode, Simone discusses the topic of fasting, specifically comparing water fasting to dry fasting and highlighting the benefits of each. She explains the concept of autophagy and cellular repair, insulin sensitivity, weight loss, brain function, and hormonal balance in relation to fasting. Simone emphasizes the importance of understanding the differences between water fasting and dry fasting, detailing how dry fasting can be more efficient in cleansing the body without the need for elimination processes.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Dry fasting allows the body to reach a deep cleansing state three times quicker than water fasting, making it a superior option for healing and detoxification.
Autophagy, the process of cells removing damaged components and using them for fuel, is activated during fasting, leading to cellular repair and regeneration.
Overeating before starting a fast, especially a dry fast, can undermine the process and hinder the body's ability to enter a state of autophagy and deep cleansing.
Fasting in a clean and moist environment, such as near an ocean or in nature, can enhance the detoxification process and support the body's healing mechanisms.
Starting a fast with a clear intention, commitment, and understanding of the process can help maximize the benefits and ensure a successful fasting experience.

BEST MOMENTS

"It actually takes three times longer on water for the body to get to the same stage of deep cleansing as it does when you do dry fasting."

"So fasting is actually more well suited for the summer."

"Dry fasting is actually easier than water fasting, as long as the GI tract is engaged."

"Autophagy means self-eating, literally."

"The body absorbs through the skin, it also absorbs through inhalation."

In this enlightening podcast episode, Nadine shares her journey into the world of oral care and the importance of teeth and gum health. She discusses the gaps in traditional dental practices and offers insights into natural and holistic approaches to dental care. From the significance of vitamin D to the potential risks of root canals, Nadine delves into various aspects of oral health, providing practical tips and strategies for successful self-dentistry. With a focus on the eight essential steps for optimal oral care, including salt rinses, tongue scraping, and gum brushing, this episode offers a comprehensive guide to achieving healthy teeth and gums.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The podcast highlights the importance of oral care, emphasizing the impact of teeth and gum health on overall well-being.

"They said: Dentistry is an art, not a science."

"What happens is you get bacteria trapped in that dead root canal tooth that's now sealed off from the body, in the sense that white blood cells can't get to it and fight infection, but yet it can squirt bacteria into the bloodstream and it basically becomes this necrotic nest, this bacterial breeding ground of disease."

"So what this does is an EMS device, which means electrical muscle stimulation. It sits on your tongue and then it's basically working at your tongue, doing muscle contractions with your tongue and then your tongue gets stronger."

"So it's really good to do if you haven't done it and it just helps even with fresh breath and everything because that all contains stuff we don't want in our mouth."

"So what you want to achieve for overall health is you want to have peace in the Star Wars. Because when you do have that war happening in your gut, what happens is that all this cytokine storm and inflammation is slowly eroding your protection in the gut."

Vanessa's story is a testament to resilience and the power of taking proactive steps towards achieving one's dreams of becoming a parent.

Seeking support and empathy during difficult times can make a significant difference in one's journey. The kind gesture of the ultrasound technician, who reassured Vanessa during a vulnerable moment, provided comfort and hope.
Fertility journeys can be emotionally challenging, and it is important to address both the physical and emotional aspects of the experience. Vanessa sought the help of a counselor and a naturopathic doctor to support her emotional well-being and explore holistic approaches to fertility.
Taking ownership of one's health and making proactive changes can have a positive impact. Vanessa made significant changes to her diet, eliminating gluten, dairy, alcohol, and red meat, and focusing on organic, nutrient-rich foods.

The Impact of Hormonal Imbalances on Fertility: A Comprehensive Guide with Robert Tomilson

Mon, 18 Dec 2023 00:00:00 GMT

In this episode, Simone Gisondi delves into the fascinating world of bioenergetic intolerance elimination with expert guest Robert Tomilson. With over 36 years of experience in allergy research, immunology, and biophysics, Rob co-founded the Institute of Natural Health Technologies and is a registered holistic nutritionist. They discuss how stress plays a significant role in causing diseases and how the body can develop intolerances to certain substances during stressful events. Rob explains the concept of bioenergetic intolerance elimination (B.I.E.), a natural modality that helps the body recognize and deal with the culprits causing health problems. They explore the importance of the body's electromagnetic field, the role of software and hardware in the body, and how B.I.E. can help the body normalize and differentiate between harmful and non-harmful substances. They also touch on the impact of stress on fertility and the importance of addressing gut health and yeast overgrowth in the body. This episode provides valuable insights into understanding the root causes of illness and how bioenergetic intolerance elimination can support overall well-being.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Stress plays a significant role in causing diseases, with the World Health Organization stating that 90% of all illnesses are caused by stress.
Bioenergetic Intolerance Elimination (B.I.E.) is a natural modality that helps the body recognize and deal with the culprits causing health problems, allowing the body to heal itself.
The body's software, which includes hormones, vitamins, and minerals, communicates with cells through electrical impulses and vibrations.
Stressful events can lead to the body blocking certain substances, causing intolerances and imbalances in hormones and other essential components.
B.I.E. uses a patented device to electronically imprint the vibrations of specific substances into the body, helping the body recognize and utilize them properly, which can be beneficial for fertility and overall health.

BEST MOMENTS

"Even the World Health Organization says 90% of all illness is caused by stress."

"So if you consume that over and over again, it's like dripping water into a cup and the levels just come up and they come up, come right to the brim."

"So we want to make sure that their body is able to handle all these vitamins and minerals so that the baby stays nice and healthy and they have no problems during pregnancy."

"We like to say if you're having a hard time conceiving, you may want to make sure that you don't have too much yeast in your body."

"Whatever you hate, love, hate, over consume or crave, that's usually it. So we just overdo it."

The Power of Naturopathic Medicine in Fertility

Mon, 11 Dec 2023 00:00:00 GMT

In this episode, Dr. Val, a dynamic and inspirational naturopathic doctor, discusses the topic of fertility and how naturopathic medicine can play a crucial role in helping individuals conceive. She emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach to fertility, considering not only hormonal balance but also factors such as nutrition, stress management, and overall health. Dr. Val shares her extensive knowledge and experience in naturopathic medicine, highlighting the need for personalized protocols and addressing underlying imbalances. She also draws insights from her studies in traditional Asian medicine, emphasizing the importance of movement, herbal remedies, and a conscious approach to food. Listeners will gain valuable insights into the underrated tools and practices that can support fertility success and overall well-being.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Hormonal balance is crucial for fertility and overall health. The body's hormones play a significant role in fertility, and imbalances can lead to difficulties in conceiving. It is important to address hormonal imbalances through proper nutrition, stress management, and lifestyle changes.
Naturopathic medicine takes a holistic approach to fertility. Unlike traditional allopathic medicine, which focuses on specific diseases or symptoms, naturopathic medicine considers the whole person and aims to optimize overall health and well-being. Naturopathic doctors use a combination of nutrition, herbs, acupuncture, and other natural therapies to support fertility.
Traditional Asian medicine emphasizes balance and natural remedies. Traditional Asian medicine, such as Chinese medicine, focuses on restoring balance in the body and using natural remedies to promote health. This includes practices like acupuncture, herbal medicine, and dietary adjustments. These principles can be applied to support fertility and overall health.

BEST MOMENTS
"Your hormones see, oh, there's a tiger. Do I hit it on the head or run away? And so over time, that high-performance lifestyle, if you're not fueling your body properly and getting the counterbalance, it's going to show up."

"So, you know, definitely with respect to talking about fertility and hormone balance, you know, I love working with high performers, with women who have a go, go, go lifestyle."

"For women, we can do the same thing. We can kind of say, OK, what are some of your hormone levels doing? Not just estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, but what about cortisol? What about DHEA? What about melatonin? What are all of these things doing?"

"So, I'm there and I'm so excited and I'm talking to the owner and she's this beautiful woman who is Indigenous and she actually wants to help the other Indigenous women and empower them."

Unlocking the Secrets of Fertility: Insights from Dr. Darlene Gustin

Mon, 04 Dec 2023 00:00:00 GMT

Simone welcomes Dr. Darlene Gustin, a trusted naturopathic doctor, to discuss the topic of women's health and fertility. She emphasises the importance of addressing the root cause of fertility issues and highlights the role of naturopathic medicine in identifying non-pathological reasons for infertility.

Dr. Gustin also focuses on the need for preconception preparation, including detoxifying the body and ensuring optimal nutrition, as well as the impact of environmental factors, such as estrogen pollution, on fertility.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Green up your home: Take steps to reduce exposure to toxins in your environment, such as using natural cleaning products and avoiding scented candles and dryer sheets.
Pre-pregnancy body detox: Consider doing a detox to eliminate toxins from your body before trying to conceive. This can help improve fertility and create a healthier environment for your baby.
Hair mineral analysis: Get a hair mineral analysis to assess your mineral levels and check for heavy metal toxicity. This can provide valuable information about your overall health and fertility.
Address nutritional deficiencies: Work with a healthcare professional to identify any nutritional deficiencies and develop a plan to address them. This may involve supplementation and dietary changes to ensure you have the necessary nutrients for a healthy pregnancy.
Consider holistic approaches: Explore complementary therapies like chiropractic care to support your fertility journey. These therapies can help optimize the function of your body and address any structural or energetic imbalances that may be affecting fertility.

BEST MOMENTS
"The biggest philosophical difference is that we focus on addressing the root cause."

"So many of the toxins that we're exposed to are estrogenic and they're bad quality estrogens."

"You just have to be better than last week. Take little small steps that will eventually add up."

"The brain really matters more than people can imagine. If you believe that there's a child in your heart, that child will come."

"The answers are out there, and there are many other people who are probably in the exact same situation as you, and they did find a solution."

Panel Show: The Art of Masculinity - Redefining Gender Roles in Society

Mon, 27 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT

Simone explores the art of masculinity with a panel of esteemed guests, including Dr. Nikos Apostolopoulos, Dr. Russ Irwin, and Dr. Rob Tomilson, who each bring their unique expertise to the discussion.

Dr. Apostolopoulos, a physical therapist, shares insights on his modality called micro-stretching and the importance of touch in working with male patients. Dr. Irwin, a clinical psychologist, delves into the societal and psychological factors that shape masculinity, emphasising the need for balance and emotional expression. Dr. Tomilson, a doctor of natural medicine, discusses the impact of societal narratives on masculinity and the importance of men embracing vulnerability.

Together, they challenge traditional notions of masculinity and explore the complexities of gender roles in society.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Masculinity is a continuum and not a fixed definition. It is influenced by societal norms and cultural conditioning.
Men have been conditioned to suppress their emotions and vulnerability, leading to mental health issues and an inability to grieve effectively.
The media plays a significant role in shaping societal perceptions of masculinity, often portraying men as unintelligent or lacking emotional depth.
There is a need to find a balance between traditional masculine traits, such as strength and protection, and embracing vulnerability and emotional expression.
Men should be encouraged to redefine masculinity by being authentic, vulnerable, and supportive partners, fathers, and role models.

BEST MOMENTS

"To be a man, you have to inconvenience yourself for a woman."

"I think the biggest issue that you have to look at is the whole thing behind the concept of touch, because my work is all hands-on." -

"Women really want four things. They want to be seen, heard, understood, and they want to feel safe."

"I think what we need to do is sort of this. And we find this sense of balance and equilibrium where we are strong. And we are warriors, and we are protectors. But in the same sense, we're also very much in touch with our feelings as well."

Reclaiming Authentic Masculinity: Breaking Free from Societal Constructs - with Dr. Nikos Apostolopolous

Mon, 20 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT

Simone welcomes Dr. Nikos Apostolopoulos, to delve into a thought-provoking discussion about masculinity and its definition in today's society.

Dr. Apostolopoulos challenges the traditional notions of masculinity, highlighting the importance of tapping into one's sensitive side and embracing a mosaic of emotions. They explore the impact of societal constructs, such as the Hollywood portrayal of masculinity, and how it has led to a disconnect between men and their true selves. The conversation also touches on the concept of toxic masculinity and the need for men to understand and connect with the feminine.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Society has created a construct of what it means to be masculine and feminine, leading to confusion and a lack of understanding of true masculinity.
Masculinity should not be defined by societal expectations or Hollywood portrayals, but rather by being true to oneself and embracing emotions and sensitivity.
The patriarchal society has suppressed the feminine and created a disconnect between men and women, hindering deep connections and understanding.
The societal construct of success, such as the American dream, has influenced the definition of masculinity and created pressure for men to conform to certain roles and expectations.

BEST MOMENTS

"We have been conditioned, especially me coming from a Greek family, we have been conditioned to be the tough people, the heroes, the embodiment of sacrifice for the family."

"A real masculine person is a person that actually digs deep down inside and brings out the emotions which are a major part of our lives."

"We're too confused nowadays. We're too far gone to be able to sit back and say, this is a male role, this is a female role."

"I think it's great that women can go out in society and work and contribute and, you know, create the environment where they're able to earn for themselves because it makes you feel special."

The Masculine Journey: Unpacking the Six Stages of Development

Mon, 13 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT

Simone welcomes special guest Dr. Russ Irwin, a renowned clinical psychologist and expert in human behaviour, who shares his insights on masculinity and the stages of the masculine journey.

He discusses the importance of the beloved son stage in boyhood, where a young boy needs to feel his father's delight in him. He also explores the cowboy stage of adolescence, the warrior stage of young adulthood, the lover stage of awakening the heart, the king stage of wholeheartedness and wisdom, and the sage stage of mentoring and passing on wisdom.

Dr. Irwin also addresses the impact of social media on society and the challenges of finding true identity in today's world.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The masculine journey consists of six stages: beloved son, cowboy, warrior, lover, king, and sage. These stages help shape a man's understanding of masculinity and his development throughout life.
Masculinity is not solely defined by societal norms or physical attributes. It involves a combination of physiological, cultural, and personal factors that contribute to a man's sense of identity and understanding of what it means to be a man.
The role of fathers and male figures in a boy's life is important in the development of masculinity. While single parents, including single mothers, can successfully raise children, the presence of both masculine and feminine energies can provide a balanced upbringing.
Society's portrayal of masculinity in media, such as Hollywood, can create confusion and unrealistic expectations. It is important to recognise the influence of social media and its potential negative effects on mental health, including increased envy, depression, jealousy, and anxiety.

BEST MOMENTS

"There is a great deal of role confusion out there...but I think to most appropriately come to some form of a working definition of what is masculinity or more so what does it mean to be a man."

"I think masculinity is, and of course you referred to various organ parts, so there are certain things that make you a woman that do not make me a woman. There are certain things that make me a man that would not make you a man, simply because of physiological attributes."

"I think it's being strong, it's being assertive, it's being protective, it's having that healthy sense of identity, knowing who you are, but in the same sense, having that willingness and security of heart to cry when you need to cry."

"The lover stage is the stage where we learn to, I think, accept, to understand, to recognise that this is culturally, it should be culturally acceptable. This is where we start to discover our heart."

Women In Masculine Energy

Mon, 06 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT

In this episode of The Confidential Podcast, Simone Gisondi and co-host Kaifei delve into the topic of women operating in their masculine energy. They discuss their personal experiences and the challenges they face in balancing their femininity and masculinity. Simone shares how her traumatic upbringing led her to adopt a more masculine role for self-protection, while Kaifei reflects on her ambitious nature and the criticism she faced for being assertive. They explore the impact of societal expectations and gender roles on women's ability to embrace their femininity. The episode also touches on the importance of men embracing their masculine energy and the need for a balance between the masculine and feminine in relationships. Overall, this thought-provoking conversation sheds light on the complexities of gender dynamics and the quest for authenticity and balance.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Operating in a state of femininity and masculinity can increase your chances of success and authenticity.

Women often find themselves operating in their masculine energy due to societal expectations and responsibilities.

The desire to be feminine and create space for a partner can be challenging when shouldering all responsibilities.

Personal experiences and upbringing can shape one's tendency to operate in a masculine or feminine energy.

Men operating from their feminine energy can disrupt the natural balance and polarity in relationships.

BEST MOMENTS:
"I found a lot of criticism for the way that I was. I found that the principles of the church, for example, were very much that women don't really have a say."

"I yearned and really deeply desired to be more in the feminine, but having been exposed to so much of the crap and trauma... I developed into sort of the defense mechanisms and the self-protection that I operated from a masculine to protect myself."

"I felt like I was the masculine, my ex-husband was the masculine, we were both masculines in the same relationship. And I wanted desperately to be able to let my guard down and put down the reins."

"Men should be masculine, protectors, providers, spiritual partners to their women, honoring and cherishing the women, and for the women to be able to provide that feminine nature that's nurturing to the men to support them on the path to becoming the great masculine warrior that men are supposed to be."

"I found a lot of criticism for the way that I was. I found that the principles of the church, for example, were very much that women don't really have a say."

"I think it's just being respected enough for the man to consider you and consider your opinions about things without feeling that you're challenging them all the time."

The Importance of Being Kind to Men

Mon, 30 Oct 2023 00:00:00 GMT

In this episode of The Confidential Podcast, Simone Giussandi and Kaifei Aldam discuss the importance of being kind to men, particularly in the context of divorce and separation. They explore the idea that women often have the upper hand in these situations and discuss the biases and challenges that men may face. They share personal experiences and insights, highlighting the need for compassion and understanding in relationships. Simone and Kaifei emphasize the importance of clear communication, setting boundaries, and taking responsibility for one's own actions. Ultimately, they advocate for kindness as a fundamental aspect of being a high-value individual, both in relationships and in life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Being kind to men, especially during and after divorce, is an important topic that deserves more attention.
There may be a bias that gives women the upper hand in divorce proceedings, which can lead to bitterness and resentment from men.
It is important to consider the financial implications of divorce and how it can impact both parties, especially if there are children involved.
Kindness towards men in divorce situations is crucial for the well-being of both parties and any children involved.
Effective communication and setting clear boundaries are essential in maintaining a healthy relationship and avoiding unnecessary conflict.

BEST MOMENTS:
"I feel like it's right that no matter the circumstances of why you split up, that you should financially contribute more if you're not the main carer, because the main carer has so much more responsibility."

"I think the only way you can arrive at having the ability to be kind throughout it when you've been so damaged and so hurt is the self-work."

"It's important to keep in mind that the very things that you do in these situations are going to be creating the opinion of who you are as a person."

"It's so important that we have to be kind because that's just who we are, not because we owe it to the men, not because we feel that we have to do something to get something in return."

"I feel like it's a really difficult place to be when you are say 13 years down the line in this marriage and somebody's doing something that is completely violating your standards, but you're so intertwined."

"I think divorce is such a circumstance as well because if you have a woman that can look at it and say hey you know what, this hurts like hell but i still am a human being and i still have compassion and you're a person and i just don't have it in me to go and try to rip you apart and take you down."

"I think if you take responsibility for what you allow, because I think it's about allowing as well, if you continue to allow someone to do something to you, like the cheating, you know, over and over again, it's not making you happy, it's harming you, it's making you feel devalued, your self-worth is on the floor."

The Power of Emotional Intelligence in Relationships with Dr Russ Irwin

Sun, 15 Oct 2023 23:00:00 GMT

In this episode of The Confidential Podcast, Simone teams up with Russ, the go-to guy for executive coaching and marriage counselling. Together, they're tackling the big D-word: divorce. But don't worry, it's not all gloom and doom! They're diving deep into what makes relationships tick.

Russ spills the beans on why emotional smarts might just be more crucial than being a smarty-pants, and how forming those heart-to-heart connections and talking things out can make or break both your personal and work relationships.

They get real about the hurdles couples face, and how facing adversity can actually bring you closer together. Plus, Russ dishes out some inside scoop on what both men and women need in relationships, like getting those thumbs-up signs and feeling like they belong.

So if you're looking for some down-to-earth tips and tricks to keep your marriage ship sailing smoothly and avoid the D-word, this episode is your new best friend.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Emotional intelligence (EQ) is more important than intellectual intelligence (IQ) in maintaining successful relationships, whether it's in marriage or business.
Adversity can be a beneficial ingredient in a relationship, as it can strengthen the bond and take the relationship to a higher level of happiness.
Healthy communication and fighting rules are essential for a successful relationship. This includes avoiding swearing, name-calling, bringing up the past, and negative aspects of the family.
Women want to be seen, heard, understood, and feel safe in a relationship, while men want validation and a sense of protection.
Belonging cues, which create a sense of connection and validation, are crucial for maintaining a happy and fulfilling relationship.

BEST MOMENTS

"True love is not true love till it's been tested."
"A good marriage or a good business, it's all about relationships."
"There is something within women… They want to be seen, heard, understood, and feel a measure of safety."
"There is nothing more powerful that a woman could do for a man than to say, 'Honey, you're amazing.'"
"We are wired for belonging… It's about sending out belonging cues and receiving them back."
"True love is not true love till it's been tested."
"A good marriage or a good business, it's all about relationships."

Simone emphasizes the importance of maintaining a positive relationship with her ex for the sake of their children, and she shares the incredible growth and self-discovery that came after their divorce. This episode goes deep into the intricacies of divorce, discussing how culture and upbringing can affect relationships and the challenges of finding love again after a long-term partnership ends.

The negative effects of a toxic and vindictive divorce. Simone witnessed the destructive nature of her parents' divorce, which involved financial manipulation and emotional turmoil. This experience further shaped her views on marriage and divorce.

BEST MOMENTS

"I was so mad when I started seeing, 'Holy fuck, my marriage is going to end.' So I'm not so great."
"I can see the challenge in finding a partner now when Frank is a metric for that. I'd love to find a Frank. I haven't found a Frank"
"I had to help my mom with the entire divorce proceedings, her being an immigrant with not speaking the language. It was sort of all on me to kind of figure things out."

Divorce According to an Animal Communicator

Tue, 29 Aug 2023 00:06:00 GMT

At the age of 24 Paloma defied convention and got married to the man that proposed to her just 1 day after they met. The whirlwind romance led to a whirlwind marriage, one that ended after mere months.

Her second marriage ended over 22 years ago, for reasons that also defy convention as they had nothing to do with lack of commitment, finances or infidelity.

In this conversation, Paloma and Simone discuss:

- What should be hands down the most important thing in a marriage

- The power of special connections (not necessarily to other people)

- The magic language we do not speak

- How our talents/gifts/passions affect our marriage
