Imperfect Love

We often expect our bodies and brains to operate at peak performance throughout our lives. Yet what fuels us--and what we can get away with--in our first few decades of life doesn't cut it as we get older. In fact, I've discovered that optimal mental and physical health require greater focus and effort with each passing year. So whether you are looking to heal an injury, increase your brain power, train your nervous system for weight loss, boost your resilience, or foster healthy longevity, today's interview with Dr. Scott Sherr, a leading board-certified internal medicine physician who is certified in Health Optimization Medicine, offers empowering news for you. Get the clear, actionable, and research-backed information you need to improve your mental and physical health.

Topics discussed include health optimization, brain health, energy, resilience, science, longevity, parasympathetic nervous system, sympathetic nervous system, brain fog, hormones, perimenopause, menopause, testosterone, mitochondria, methylene blue, HBOT, PTSD, healing, and fight-flight response.

Are you exhausted from over-giving and over-doing? Do you tend to look to others for validation or lean into people-pleasing behaviors? If so, you're in solid company. From childhood forward, many of us learn to tend to others' needs to feel valuable and worthy. And from my experience, these hardwired habits can foster perfectionism, enmeshment, and dependency--and even open the door to being exploited by thoughtless or self-serving people. Yet I've found that small changes over time can foster the awareness and inner strength you need to create healthy habits and set yourself free. Today, we're joined by a fabulous guest who specializes in helping others gain self-worth from within--instead of from others.

Topics discussed include emotional outsourcing, perfectionism, self-care, self-love, habit change, midlife crisis, perimenopause, menopause, life changes, role changes, codependency, red flags, neurolinguistics, GABA, boundaries, marriage, children, parenting, healthy relationships, reciprocity, mutuality, and grief.
