Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Selfdom Rewind: Building Strength & Balancing Metabolism with My Personal Trainer Janis Blums
Q: How many carbohydrates do we need?
Blums gives about 130 grams a day as a baseline for the brain, with additional carbohydrates depending on cognitive demands and the intensity and duration of exercise.
Selfdom Rewind: Building Strength & Balancing Metabolism with My Personal Trainer Janis Blums
Q: Why is strength training so important?
Blums says strength training builds muscle that can store and use carbohydrates, supporting energy, metabolic function, resilience and healthy aging. He also highlights muscle's role in supporting bones and maintaining strength through menopause.
Next Self: What Pregnancy ACTUALLY Does to Your Brain: Neuroscientist Dr Sarah McKay Explains
Q: Why do you think that there is this negativity towards women when it comes to baby brain, and that you almost feel stupid, and lose your keys all the time when you become a mother?
McKay says pregnancy and motherhood redirect attention toward the baby, creating cognitive load in a new and demanding context. Research often finds no measurable decline on cognitive tests, so forgetfulness may reflect divided attention rather than a damaged or less capable brain.
Next Self: What Pregnancy ACTUALLY Does to Your Brain: Neuroscientist Dr Sarah McKay Explains
Q: What are the changes that actually happen when you go through matrescence?
Pregnancy is associated with structural changes in gray matter and brain networks involved in social cognition and identity. Other research suggests new mothers' brains can be more flexible, responsive, and efficient.
The Healthiest Version of You Isn’t the Most Disciplined | My Interview with The Balance Theory
Q: How has pregnancy changed the way you grieve your mom?
Dominique says pregnancy reopened her grief, while also bringing comfort through family stories, spiritual beliefs and the thought that her baby was once an egg inside her mother. She leans on family and friends, while acknowledging how hard it is to wish she could call her mother.
