  • Hidden Signs of Complex PTSD

    I listened to Dr. Aimie’s podcast since it was in the recommended section. I was so surprised at the high rating after listening to her interview with Dr. Tian Dayton. Dr. Aimie interrupted her guest, was unclear with questions, and gushed based on her past knowledge of her guest’s work without clarity on what we as listeners should be hearing. I am unsure if I’ll continue listening - if this is how she treats someone she respects and admires (cutting her off often, assuming she knows what her g... more

  • No longer trust her views on trauma

    FYI

    I’ve listened to many of her podcasts as recommended by my therapist. I almost bought her book, but after seeing the marketing being tied to her attendance to Charlie Kirk’s memorial, I can no longer recommend her work. So disappointing.

    What’s most concerning is she deleted the comment section on thepost and in a subsequent follow-up video she refuses to understand and engage in conversation of her followers perspectives when it comes to talking about trauma. Instead, she blames everyone... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Could Your Trauma Be Disrupting Your Metabolism? The Weight Health Conversation
Q: What does weight health mean as a term for you?
Weight health refers to the proper functioning of a network of hormones and systems that regulate weight, digestion, hydration, and energy, not just the number on the scale. It emphasizes metabolism, satiety signals, and the body's ability to use nutrients efficiently, with perimenopause and life stages affecting this balance.
Dopamine and Depression: The Metabolic Link You Need to Know
Q: How do phenotype-specific neurochemistry and peripheral signals change our approach to treating depression or anxiety in trauma patients?
Phenotype-aware strategies consider an individual's unique neurochemical and metabolic profile (e.g., glucose regulation, dopamine pathways) and favor personalized interventions, including non-invasive neuromodulation and metabolic management, over one-size-fits-all antidepressants.
Can Stem Cells Accelerate Trauma Healing?
Q: Where would you start someone biologically if they are struggling with stress and overwhelm?
Focus on creating a nurturing environment that allows for recovery, as trauma might inhibit usual healthy responses.
Can't Get Off Antidepressants? Ask for These Lab Tests
Q: What role does iron play?
Dr. Greenblatt describes iron's critical importance in neurotransmitter synthesis, particularly dopamine, and how deficiencies can greatly affect motivation and mental health.
Can't Get Off Antidepressants? Ask for These Lab Tests
Q: So why did you decide that something was needed other than the traditional model?
Dr. Greenblatt explains that despite decades in the traditional model, he observed a rise in depression and suicide rates alongside increased medication use, prompting him to explore root causes in nutrition and trauma.
