ICYMI: Stuck In Dating? A Framework To Overcome Common Self-Sabotaging Patterns, with Amy Chan
Q: What are the most common self-sabotaging patterns you're seeing right now in dating?
Chan says people often get stuck at a particular stage, such as failing to move from a first date to a second. Possible patterns include talking too much, asking questions without sharing enough, or using humor to avoid deeper connection. She recommends identifying the specific issue rather than concluding that dating or the person is fundamentally broken.
Low-Tox Living: A Toxicologist's Guide To The Chemicals, Plastics & Endocrine Disruptors Affecting Your Hormones & Health, with Dr. Yvonne Burkart
Q: Is there a general timeline for how long it takes to see changes in chemical load after making lifestyle changes?
Burkart says phthalates, BPA and parabens can clear from the body within days. She cites a study in which some chemicals dropped by up to 60 percent after seven days of reducing exposure through food and personal-care products, while PFAS can persist much longer.

How to Stop Overthinking Decisions and Trust Yourself, with Therapist Jenna Overbaugh
Q: What should we do when our brain falls into the what if thinking trap and hypotheticals?
