  • Episode #18: Are Psychedelics the Future of Therapy?
    Aug 5 2024

    In this episode, I talk with Sherry Sadighim, Psy.D., a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in adult psychotherapy and psychological testing, to discuss the emerging field of psychedelics-assisted therapy (PAT).


    While Dr. Sadighim is currently unable to legally practice PAT, she supports clients who choose to use psychedelics independently by providing information on the potential risks and benefits and by assisting them in understanding and processing their experiences as needed.


    In our discussion, Dr. Sadighim delves into the importance of understanding a patient’s mental health history, setting intentions for the psychedelic experience, and helping patients apply their insights post-session to achieve lasting benefits. To learn more about my guest, and for more insights and resources, visit Dr. Sherry Sadighim’s website.

  • Episode #17: The Art of Recovery: Expert Insights for Optimal Performance
    Jul 26 2024

    Exercise is good for us. It helps us sleep better, maintain our weight, and lowers the risk of many physical and mental conditions. So, after playing sports in high school and college, I stayed active. I did triathlons and marathons, attended spin classes and yoga classes, and for the last two years, I’ve been working out at Orange Theory, an exercise studio that involves high-intensity work on treadmills, rowing devices and weights.


    But in my 30s, I started to notice that exercise, despite all its benefits, seemed to come at a cost. Whenever I exercised too hard, I paid for it the next day. It didn’t matter if I worked out in the morning or night, whether it was a spin class or yoga—after exercising, I’d go to bed wired, sleep badly and often wake up bone-crushingly tired, almost as I was hangover. I’d ask doctors about this phenomenon and they’d brush it off, or suggest working out in the morning, or drinking more water. But I knew something was going on with my body, and I decided to try and figure it out.


    In this episode, I talk with three exercise and fitness experts—Brad A. Roy, Ph.D., FACSM, FACHE, FMFA, Kelly Malmin, PT, DPT, Cert DN, Cert SMT, FMS, SFMA, FCS, and April Terry, MS, LAT, ATC—who help me figure out what might be causing my post-exercise fatigue, a quest that could help us all exercise and recover better.

  • Episode #16: The Art & Science of Audiobook Narration with Sean Pratt
    Jun 15 2024

    Have you ever wondered what it takes to transform a book into an engaging audiobook?


    In this episode, I talk with actor and audiobook narrator, Sean Pratt, to explore the art and science of narrating audiobooks. With a career spanning 35 years in acting and 27 years in audiobook narration (also known by his pseudonym Lloyd James), Sean has recorded over 1,100 books across almost every genre. His work has earned him 9 AudioFile Magazine “Earphones” awards, 5 SOVAS nominations, and 5 “Audie” nominations from the Audio Publishers Association.


    Most recently, Sean narrated Jonathan Haidt’s new book, “The Anxious Generation,” which topped the Associated Press’s list of ‘Top 10 Nonfiction Audiobooks.’ Beyond his narration work, Sean is the author of “To Be or Wanna Be: The Top Ten Differences Between a Successful Actor and a Starving Artist,” a must-read for aspiring actors that outlines the key behaviors and mindsets that differentiate success from struggle.


    In addition to his narration and acting work, Sean dedicates his time to coaching performers on audiobook narration techniques, teaching classes, and writing articles about the business side of the industry.
