We have more resources than ever before to become securely attached, but rates of secure attachment are DROPPING. Dr. Marisa G.

Reposting one of my favorite episodes! Do you know what the major sources of microplastics are in your home? Should you actually throw out your plastic cutting board? Are you ingesting heavy metals without even knowing it? Is your microwave hurting you? I’m joined by Dr. Vivian Chen to get real answers about the toxins we're all a little worried about—microplastics, heavy metals, EMFs, PFAS, forever chemicals, water filtration, red light therapy, and the health myths worth knowing (and the ones you can let go of). If it's a toxin you're afraid of, we're getting into it. 🎧 What you'll learn: Why fiber might be your body's best defense against the microplastics you can't avoid The exact question to ask before buying a water filter (it's not "which one is best") Why your "healthy" non-stick pan might not be as safe as the brand claims The dosing mistake that means most red light therapy devices are doing NOTHING Why microwaving food in plastic is far riskier than cutting on a plastic board The 3-step hierarchy for actually lowering your PFAS exposure (toilet paper isn't on it) For more from Dr. Vivian Chen, subscribe to her Substack: ⁠https://platefulhealth.substack.com.

The viral relationship advice that we see on social media is often not the advice that's going to help us the most. In fact, it's often the stuff that goes viral that can cause us more frustration when we try it and it doesn't work.

Most of us want more (and better) social interactions, but being more social means more energy. Sometimes it’s easier to just stay home or not talk to someone, even though we KNOW connecting with other people is the best thing for our health and happiness.

I received a podcast review that basically said because a guest talked about chronic inflammation it was a "MAHA podcast." So I decided to go straight to one of the top inflammation researchers in the world and ask him directly: is chronic inflammation actually real, or is it pseudoscience?  My guest is Dr. David Furman, the Director of Stanford Medicine's 1000 Immunomes Project (the largest longitudinal study on aging and the immune system in the world) and an Associate Professor at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, and his answer might surprise you. We play a game of Myth or Fact and bust some of the biggest inflammation claims all over the internet, from gluten and dairy to seed oils, and microplastics. We also get into how to actually test whether you're inflamed, the surprising link between chronic stress, depression, and your immune system, why your coffee habit might be doing you a favor, and exactly what to do about all of it if you have no money to spend. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • What the best anti-inflammatory tools and habits are • Why 80% of people over 40 are inflamed • The surprising foods that drive inflammation • The inflammation-stress and inflammation-depression connection • One free thing you can do tonight to start lowering inflammation immediately Studies mentioned in this episode: • iAge / Thousand Immunomes Project (inflammatory aging clock, CXCL9 biomarker): Nature Aging paper via PMC / PubMed • Chronic inflammation in the etiology of disease across the life span (Nature Medicine, 2019 — the paper linking inflammaging to major diseases) • NLRC4 inflammasome / caffeine study (why coffee drinkers had less inflammation): Nature Medicine, 2017 • Chronic stress / caregiver glucocorticoid resistance (the cancer-caregiver study): Miller, Chen & Cole, PNAS 2012 • 2014 depression inflammation study: Mostafavi et al., Molecular Psychiatry 2014 • Kitavans tribe free from stroke and heart disease study: PubMed / PubMed For more from Dr. David Furman: • https://davidfurman.com/  • https://www.buckinstitute.org/  • https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/david-furman  Ready to uplevel every part of your life?

Women have been told how we have to show up at work, in our relationships, in our families, in society at large, forever. And it turns out it's costing us way more than we thought. It's making us sick. My guest today, Sara Hirsh Bordo, is a 15-time award-winning documentary filmmaker and somebody who was hit with melanoma, breast tumors, Hashimoto's, and Epstein-Barr all at once. Instead of just treating it, she investigated it. She funded her own research of 1,000 women, the first-ever study on the relationship between empowerment and autoimmune conditions, and what she found was absolutely groundbreaking. Her study was endorsed by a former US surgeon general, and it's an absolute paradigm shift in how we think about autoimmune conditions. Sarah has since completely healed, and we’re going to talk about exactly what she did in this episode. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • The shocking link between being a "good girl" and autoimmune disease • Why eldest and only daughters are disproportionately affected  • The science of epigenetics and what it means for your health today • The biological chain reaction that connects people-pleasing to disease • How Sara healed from melanoma, Hashimoto's, breast tumors, and Epstein-Barr • What to do differently with your doctors For more from Sara Hirsh Bordo: • Book, Autoimmunity and The Good Girls: https://autoimmunityandthegoodgirls.com/#order  • Website: https://www.womenrising.com/  • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahirshbordo/  Read the new study on autoimmunity and being a good girl mentioned in this episode: https://autoimmunesurvey.com/ Read the ACE questionnaire mentioned in this episode: https://www.acesaware.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/ACE-Questionnaire-for-Adults-Identified-English-rev.7.26.22.pdf  Check out our NEW YouTube Channel with tons of YouTube exclusive Shorts, exclusive podcast content, and full video episodes: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@LizMoodyTV⁠  Ready to uplevel every part of your life?

I’m all about people being able to do whatever they want with their bodies and their faces, and I think that the hot girl era is coming to an end. I think that we're entering our ugly girl era, and there's some really convincing science as to why this is about to happen. Today, we get into the 3 factors that led us to this tipping point, what we're going to consider beautiful next as a society, and what you can do with all of this so you can feel as good as possible in your face, your skin, and your body. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • Why the "hot girl era" is ending • The sneaky way social media has made beauty feel like a full-time job • How scarcity secretly drives what we find attractive (and why that's shifting) • Why making "perfection" available to everyone actually devalues it • What AI has to do with the rise of imperfection as a status symbol • How to stop playing a beauty game that keeps moving the goalposts • Why your "flaws" might soon be your most valuable features • A surprisingly liberating way to think about your body, your face, and how you show up in the world Check out our NEW YouTube Channel with tons of YouTube exclusive Shorts, exclusive podcast content, and full video episodes: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@LizMoodyTV⁠  Ready to uplevel every part of your life?

I’ve always wondered how specifically having good relationships can decrease our likelihood of cancer or having a heart attack, and improve our immune systems and brain health. Well, I asked a Stanford Neuroscientist and his answers are absolutely fascinating.  Dr. Ben Rein is an award-winning neuroscientist and lecturer at Stanford, and the author of the phenomenal new book, Why Brains Need Friends. We are talking about why hanging out with your friends floods your brain with a chemical cocktail that is basically a microdose of MDMA, why being married beats chemotherapy as the number one predictor of surviving cancer, why Botox and Tylenol and Advil are making it harder to make friends, yes, really, and why we should all probably get dogs and get our parents to get dogs if we want them to live a long time. You're going to come away with a ton of action steps to not only live longer and be healthier, but also just feel better every single day. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • How to find your ideal "social dose" • Introvert or extrovert: You might be wrong about yourself  • How to audit your social life • The Botox friendship problem • The neuroscience behind social anxiety (why you dread going out) • What your pet is doing to your brain  • The hidden social side effects of Tylenol and Advil Find the introversion to extroversion assessment and the social journal mentioned in this episode here: https://www.benrein.com/book (tag @lizmoody and @dr.benrein with your results!).

We are diving deep into the real reasons men are not doing their part in relationships, and exactly how you can help change that. Whether you want better sex, or for him to take on more of the mental load, or you want to know if you're even with the right person, or if the relationship is worth staying in, we're going to get into that today.

Women were left out of medical, nutrition, and exercise research for 16 years. They studied men, and then they told women we would get the same results by following the general health guidelines. In this episode, you're going to learn what the research actually says when women are the subjects. You're going to learn an easy shift to work with your hormones to get the sleep that you need, how to help your body effortlessly lose weight, what actually makes you happier and calmer, and what will help you live longer.  I’m joined by Dr. Stacy Sims who has her PhD in exercise physiology with a focus on nutrition and sex differences. She spent years in her postdoc at Stanford studying how different interventions impact men and women differently. She has devoted her life to figuring out the real science of women's health, and today she is sharing her exact playbook with you. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • Why intermittent fasting backfires for women • The workout class you may have been sweating through unnecessarily • Why your wearable could be gaslighting you • The male-data fitness myth costing women results • The truth about lifting heavy • Why calorie deficits often make women hold onto fat • Cold plunge vs. sauna: what the research says for women • The supplement that outperforms SSRIs in early research • What the birth control pill may have changed in your brain • Why you can't have it all at once in your workout  Check out our NEW YouTube Channel with tons of YouTube exclusive Shorts, exclusive podcast content, and full video episodes: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@LizMoodyTV⁠  For more from Dr. Stacy Sims: • Newsletter: https://www.drstacysims.com/newsletters/articles • Website: https://www.drstacysims.com/  • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drstacysims/?hl=en  Ready to uplevel every part of your life?

When I was in the absolute worst time in my life, I got out of it by learning a tool that I credit for getting everything I ever wanted—my career, my friendships, my house.  It came from my darkest moments, when I was agoraphobic—I’ve told bits and pieces of that story before, but I've gained so many new listeners since then, and I also haven’t shared in detail how it ended up having this incredibly positive impact on my life, how I learned something simple and easy that you can do to get what you want in all areas of your life too. That’s what I’ll be sharing with you today.

You've probably heard a million different time management strategies by now, but may still feel busy, exhausted, and like you don’t have time to do the things you truly love.

We're going to talk about exactly how to overcome those hurdles with pragmatic, actionable steps that work. And, here's the catch, we are not talking about time management to get more done. We are talking about time management to create a life that’s filled with joy and fun. My expert guest is Laura Vanderkam. She is a time management researcher who has studied thousands of people's real time logs, a bestselling author of multiple books, a business owner, mother of 5 kids, and she also sings in a choir every week. She has figured out how to use every hour intentionally, and she’s going to help you do the same. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • The reason time management strategies fail • The surprising truth about how long your chores, work, and obligations actually take • How to use your evenings and weekends like a mini vacation—without going anywhere • A simple weekly planning method that cuts decision fatigue and kills the Sunday scaries • Why "three times a week" is enough to build a real habit • Why "flexible" hobbies never happen—what to do instead • How to make tasks feel doable Check out our NEW YouTube Channel with tons of YouTube exclusive Shorts and, coming soon, YouTube exclusive podcast content: https://www.youtube.com/@LizMoodyTV  Check out the previous episodes of The Liz Moody Podcast discussed today: • Unlocking the Happiness Formula: How the Most Joyful People Manage Their Time With Cassie Holmes, PhD • Invisible Labor Is Damaging Your Relationships–But This 6 Minute Exercise Can Change Everything with Eve Rodsky Review the study mentioned in this episode: Happiness From Treating The Weekend Like A Vacation For more from Laura Vanderkam: • Order Her New Book, Big Time: https://wwnorton.com/books/9781324110750 • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lvanderkam  • Website: https://lauravanderkam.com/  Ready to uplevel every part of your life?

My team is on our first ever retreat this week! I wanted to practice what I preach and give everyone the chance to relax and restore in Arizona, so this week, I hand picked one of my all-time favorite episodes to share with you. If you care about feeling good, about happiness, this episode is gonna change your life—I recorded it over a year ago and I still talk about it weekly. Also, it’ll make you feel good while listening. Enjoy, and see you next week for a fresh new episode! - xo Liz You've probably heard that you should spend more time in nature, practice gratitude, or meditate—but you may not know that one single emotion underlies the benefits of all of those things. Today, we're talking about awe: what it actually is, why the science says it might be the most important emotion you're not prioritizing, and exactly how to build more of it into your life starting today. I'm joined by Dr. Dacher Keltner, professor of psychology at UC Berkeley, founder of the Greater Good Science Center, and the world's leading researcher on awe. He's also the scientist behind the emotions in Pixar's Inside Out and Inside Out 2. Over 15 years of research, Dacher has studied awe across 26 countries, gathered over 2,600 stories of awe from around the world, and built a growing body of evidence showing that this one emotion can reduce anxiety, lower inflammation, ease chronic pain, combat loneliness, and even help with PTSD, sometimes more powerfully than pharmaceuticals. The best part? You don't need a trip to the Grand Canyon to find it. Awe is closer than you think. 🎧 What you'll learn: • Why three minutes of awe a few times a week can measurably change your physical and mental health • The surprising sign that tells you you're actually experiencing awe (and how to know it's not just fear or beauty) • How the eight universal sources of awe can act as a personal compass pointing you toward your life's meaning • The one mindset shift that lets you find awe without going anywhere new • Why grief and trauma can actually be gateways to awe, and how to use that to feel better stat • The unexpected connection between awe and psychedelics (and how to get similar benefits without either) • How religion is immensely helpful for awe, and how to build a secular version • The "awe prescription" Dacher recommends based on the latest research • The micro habit that helped healthcare workers fight depression and burnout during COVID in just one minute a day Check out the previous episodes of The Liz Moody Podcast discussed today: The Secret To Happiness, From The World’s Longest Study With Dr. Robert Waldinger For more from Dacher Keltner:  • Book: Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life • Podcast: The Science of Happiness Order Liz’s book 100 Ways to Change Your Life: The Science of Leveling Up Health, Happiness, Relationships & Success now!  Connect with Liz on Instagram @lizmoody or at www.lizmoody.com.  Subscribe to the substack https://lizmoody.substack.com/welcome.
