Lisle, Ph.D.is the co-author of The Pleasure Trap available here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1570671974?tag=onamzchefajsh-20&linkCode=ssc&creativeASIN=1570671974&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.1GNPDCAG4A86S Dr. Doug Lisle is an evolutionary psychologist and co-author of The Pleasure Trap: Mastering the Hidden Force that Undermines Health and Happiness. He and his colleagues (Jennifer Howk and Richard Seidel) have developed a revolutionary method for approaching life challenges and improving self-confidence and self-esteem. They describe their approach as Esteem Dynamics — an approach with clinical insights derived from evolutionary psychology. Central figures having major influence on the development of Esteem Dynamics include Richard Dawkins, John Tooby and Leda Cosmides, David Buss, Robert Trivers, Steven Pinker, and Geoffrey Miller. All of these individuals are considered world-leading theorists in evolutionary theory and human psychology. Somewhat surprisingly, insights from these trailblazers has yet to reach mainstream clinical psychology, and thus major advances stemming from some of the world’s greatest thinkers have yet to be systematically applied to problems of helping people improve their lives. Esteem Dynamics is the first such effort, and weds Dr. Lisle’s 30-years of clinical experience to the deep insights into human nature only recently available via evolutionary psychology. Dr. Lisle received his undergraduate education from the University of California, San Diego. He completed his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at the University of Virginia, and was then appointed Lecturer in Psychology at Stanford University. His research and clinical interests include health and wellness, self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, the treatment of anxiety and depression, the genetics of individual differences, and optimizing achievement motivation. In addition to his work with Esteem Dynamics, Dr. Lisle lectures widely on health and wellness. Dr Lisle is available at selected days and times for a one-to-one, personal phone consultation.To schedule a consultation with Dr Lisle: https://drdouglisle.as.me/schedule.php

    Given Months to Live at 80, Celebrating 90: How Al Schmidt Reversed His Heart Disease Eating Plants

    My name is Al Schmidt, I am 85 and I have been on an incredible journey since July 2016, and this is my story. I have had coronary artery disease for most of my adult life. In 1985, when I was 48, I had my first angina pains while riding a bicycle. I had always been active. After a series of tests I had a quintuple bypass. That was a traumatic event in my life. I took the pledge, gave up red meat, and embarked on a low fat diet. I watched my weight, around 170 I continued to be active, walking, hiking, and biking. My father had died at 59 and that was about 10 years away. He was overweight and ate meat with every meal. So I went on what I thought was a healthy low fat diet. My goal was to limit my fat intake to around 20%-25% of my daily calories and no red meat. Remember this was the 80’s and 20%-25% fat was considered low. I had an angiogram and was told I needed a stent. This time the recovery was minimal. I had two incisions in my groin one from the angiogram and one from the stint. I remember thinking how easy a stint was compared to bypass surgery. I had to wonder if my original cardiac surgery had been this easy would I have changed my lifestyle? As time went on I had some problems with PVC’s (premature ventricular contractions) and such. I became intolerant to several long-term medications that I had been taking. I was unable to take ANY statin to keep my cholesterol down. I had another stint implanted, various irregular pulse problems, and Acid Reflux. In 2014 I started having shortness of breath and chest pains while walking and going up and down stairs. I started taking Imdur and Ranexa which opened my blood vessels. While my symptoms went away, I knew what my future held. By 80 years of age I had become a full-fledged card carrying Cardiac Cripple. A Cardiac Cripple is one that cannot complete the normal daily actives without debilitating chest pains. This included sex. As an aside I have to mention, regarding sex in your 80s, “four” play takes on a new importance. It becomes more like “eight” play. But I digress. I could not climb stairs, I could not walk from my house to my neighbor’s house without severe and frightening chest pains. I could not take the trash out. I had been used to walking a mile and a half, climbing stairs, and living an active life. My existence now was limited to sitting in front of my computer and or watching TV (and I hate TV). I was becoming depressed. I was lower than snake shit in a wheel rut. SO HOW ABOUT SOME RESULTS First NO angina. I can walk long distances, I can climb stairs, and I am mobile again. My Cholesterol went from 196 to 149 in 3 months. I lost 30 pounds. I am 5’ 11” and went from 180 to 150 in two months. My kidney function went from 40% down to normal. I feel great. I have much more energy. I go out and do all the little fix-it chores that I had been neglecting before. I don’t have my usual 3 o’clock lack of energy. I don’t doze off when I am reading or in front of my computer. I don’t get those ugly looking bruise marks on my arms and hands I had Dark Blue skin on my ankles which went away after 11 months. Swollen left foot the result of 1985 bypass. My website: https://www.stayingalivewfpb.com/

He also served for 7 years as chair of the department of family practice at Lahey Clinic. He was on the Harvard Medical School faculty from 1997-2023, most recently as a Lecturer in the Department of Health Care Policy. In 2002, after becoming aware of the uncorrected misrepresentations about the benefits and dangers of Vioxx and Celebrex in our most respected medical journals, Dr. Abramson left his practice to devote his full attention to researching the quality of the information doctors must rely on. In September 2004 he published Overdo$ed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine. Just one week later, Vioxx was withdrawn in the biggest drug recall ever, but not before it had killed between 40 and 60,000 Americans, despite providing no better relief than inexpensive OTC anti-inflammatory drugs. From 2005 through the present, Dr. Abramson has continued his research and served as an expert in litigation involving prescription drugs and medical devices, with each case giving him access to millions of pages of confidential corporate documents and unreleased clinical trial data. He has also served as a consultant to the FBI and U. S. Department of Justice, including a case that led to what was, at the time, the largest criminal fine in U.S. history. Dr. Abramson has published multiple articles in peer reviewed journals, made numerous national media appearances, and written many op-ed pieces, including 2 in the New York Times. His main research interest is the extent to which the commercial takeover of medical knowledge, primarily by the drug companies, is compromising the quality of medical information available to even the most dedicated doctors, harming our health, and wasting enormous amounts of Americans’ wealth. In February 2022 Dr. Abramson published his second book, Sickening: How Big Pharma Broke American Health Care and How We Can Repair It.

I’m so glad you’re here with us today. My guest is someone I know you’re going to love — he’s not only a brilliant physician but also someone who truly walks the talk when it comes to living a healthy, vibrant, plant-based life. Dr. James Thompson is a retired board-certified internist, allergist, and immunologist who practiced medicine for over 30 years in Chicago before moving to Sacramento to be closer to his grandchildren. About seven years ago, he adopted a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle — and that transformation inspired his brand-new book, FEARLESS: Eight Pillars for Living Longer, Healthier, and Happier. The book is built around eight key pillars — Food, Exercise, Avoiding toxins, Restorative sleep, Lessening stress, Engaging the mind, Social energy, and Spiritual connectivity. It’s a practical, compassionate guide for anyone who wants to take charge of their health, no matter where they’re starting from. Dr. Thompson is genuinely excited about this opportunity! I’d love to share and discuss my book, published last March, a practical, holistic health guide designed to meet readers wherever they are on their wellness journey. It’s built around eight key pillars using the acronym FEARLESS: The book also includes several bonus chapters on topics such as cravings, COVID, GLP-1 agonists, probiotics, supplements, and relationships. It’s available on Amazon. Dr. Thompson also serves as Medical Director for Healthy Living With a Vision Foundation, a five-year-old nonprofit organization providing health education and services to underserved communities throughout Chicago and the surrounding area. Over the past five years, we’ve hosted numerous in-person and virtual health events. Website: https://healthylivingwithavision.org/ Additionally, he is a specialized host for the Plant-Based Support (PBS, but formerly Plant-Based Nutrition Support Group- PBNSG), where I lead a virtual Allergy, Asthma & Immunity Support Group session every third Wednesday at 8:00 PM Eastern.

Lisle, Ph.D.is the co-author of The Pleasure Trap available here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1570671974?tag=onamzchefajsh-20&linkCode=ssc&creativeASIN=1570671974&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.1GNPDCAG4A86S Dr. Doug Lisle is an evolutionary psychologist and co-author of The Pleasure Trap: Mastering the Hidden Force that Undermines Health and Happiness. He and his colleagues (Jennifer Howk and Richard Seidel) have developed a revolutionary method for approaching life challenges and improving self-confidence and self-esteem. They describe their approach as Esteem Dynamics — an approach with clinical insights derived from evolutionary psychology. Central figures having major influence on the development of Esteem Dynamics include Richard Dawkins, John Tooby and Leda Cosmides, David Buss, Robert Trivers, Steven Pinker, and Geoffrey Miller. All of these individuals are considered world-leading theorists in evolutionary theory and human psychology. Somewhat surprisingly, insights from these trailblazers has yet to reach mainstream clinical psychology, and thus major advances stemming from some of the world’s greatest thinkers have yet to be systematically applied to problems of helping people improve their lives. Esteem Dynamics is the first such effort, and weds Dr. Lisle’s 30-years of clinical experience to the deep insights into human nature only recently available via evolutionary psychology. Dr. Lisle received his undergraduate education from the University of California, San Diego. He completed his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at the University of Virginia, and was then appointed Lecturer in Psychology at Stanford University. His research and clinical interests include health and wellness, self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, the treatment of anxiety and depression, the genetics of individual differences, and optimizing achievement motivation. In addition to his work with Esteem Dynamics, Dr. Lisle lectures widely on health and wellness. Dr Lisle is available at selected days and times for a one-to-one, personal phone consultation: https://drdouglisle.as.me/schedule.php

After losing his father to cancer at just 53 and facing his own wake-up call with obesity, Scott and his family made the dramatic shift to a whole food, plant-based lifestyle. He lost 65 pounds, gained a new outlook on health, and discovered a passion for helping others do the same. Beyond writing, Scott is also an entrepreneur and founder of Inventor’s Edge, where he has coached over 500 inventors worldwide, and the creator of Swat-N-Scoop, a product successfully brought to market and featured on Amazon Prime’s Buy It Now show. Scott lives in Dubuque, Iowa with his wife, Beth, and their two daughters. Together, they are committed to living plant-strong and inspiring others to rethink what’s possible for their health, families, and future. Like many of us, Scott once thought throwing in the occasional salad would magically cancel out the burgers, fries, and milkshakes he loved. At 28, he brushed it off with the thought: “I’ve got plenty of time to deal with this later.” That illusion shattered when his doctor classified him as “obese.” Add to that the heartbreak of losing his father at 53 to cancer, his father-in-law to a similar illness, and watching his mother struggle with rheumatoid arthritis - the wake-up calls could no longer be ignored. 👉 Learn more about Scott’s work with inventors: www.inventors-edge.com 👉 Check out his invention, Swat-N-Scoop, on Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/SwatNscoop 👉 Articles on Entrepreneur.com about being a plant-based entrepreneur: https://www.entrepreneur.com/author/scott-putnam 👉 Amazon Prime Video show, 'Buy It Now': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xV-ogRIi1Q Scott’s story is proof that it’s never too late to ask yourself one simple question: “How healthy do I want to be?”...and then take the steps to find out.

He and his colleagues (Jennifer Howk and Richard Seidel) have developed a revolutionary method for approaching life challenges and improving self-confidence and self-esteem. They describe their approach as Esteem Dynamics — an approach with clinical insights derived from evolutionary psychology. Central figures having major influence on the development of Esteem Dynamics include Richard Dawkins, John Tooby and Leda Cosmides, David Buss, Robert Trivers, Steven Pinker, and Geoffrey Miller. All of these individuals are considered world-leading theorists in evolutionary theory and human psychology. Somewhat surprisingly, insights from these trailblazers has yet to reach mainstream clinical psychology, and thus major advances stemming from some of the world’s greatest thinkers have yet to be systematically applied to problems of helping people improve their lives. Esteem Dynamics is the first such effort, and weds Dr. Lisle’s 30-years of clinical experience to the deep insights into human nature only recently available via evolutionary psychology. Dr. Lisle received his undergraduate education from the University of California, San Diego. He completed his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at the University of Virginia, and was then appointed Lecturer in Psychology at Stanford University. His research and clinical interests include health and wellness, self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, the treatment of anxiety and depression, the genetics of individual differences, and optimizing achievement motivation. In addition to his work with Esteem Dynamics, Dr. Lisle lectures widely on health and wellness.

Esteem Dynamics is the first such effort, and weds Dr. Lisle’s 30-years of clinical experience to the deep insights into human nature only recently available via evolutionary psychology. Dr. Lisle received his undergraduate education from the University of California, San Diego. He completed his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at the University of Virginia, and was then appointed Lecturer in Psychology at Stanford University. His research and clinical interests include health and wellness, self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, the treatment of anxiety and depression, the genetics of individual differences, and optimizing achievement motivation. In addition to his work with Esteem Dynamics, Dr. Lisle lectures widely on health and wellness. Dr Lisle is available at selected days and times for a one-to-one, personal phone consultation: https://drdouglisle.as.me/schedule.php

Camp Wieser Changed Their Lives—Now They're Giving Back | Me-One Foundation Stories of Hope Join us for a heartfelt conversation with Erica Pope, Executive Director of the Me-One Foundation, and two very special guests—Melissa Brown and Peter Sabin—who both attended Camp Wieser during challenging times in their cancer journeys. In this episode, you’ll hear powerful stories of healing, connection, and the full-circle impact Camp Wieser has had on their lives. Melissa Brown is living with multiple myeloma and attended Camp Wieser with her loved ones during a time when joy and escape were desperately needed. Peter Sabin experienced Camp Wieser as a caregiver, attending with his wife and children during her cancer battle. Both Melissa and Peter share how Camp Wieser offered them more than just a weekend retreat—it gave them laughter, peace, and a community of support when they needed it most. But their stories don’t end there. Inspired by their experiences, both Melissa and Peter returned to Camp Wieser—not as campers, but as volunteers—giving back to others who now walk the same difficult road they once did. Their journeys are a testament to the healing power of love, service, and community. We’ll explore: • What Camp Wieser means to families facing cancer • The emotional and spiritual impact of being surrounded by others who "just get it" • Why so many campers choose to return as volunteers • How Camp Wieser continues to transform lives through the Me-One Foundation's mission Camp Wieser is a cost-free weekend retreat for adult cancer patients and their families. Run entirely by volunteers and funded through generous donations, Camp Wieser offers a break from the realities of cancer—replacing stress and fear with laughter, courage, and connection. 🔗 Learn more about Camp Wieser: https://me-onefoundation.org/camp-wieser 🌐 Visit the Me-One Foundation: https://me-onefoundation.org 💙 Help keep Camp Wieser free for families: https://me-onefoundation.org/donate Whether you’re a cancer patient, caregiver, donor, or someone who believes in the power of community—this episode will uplift and inspire you.
