  The Driving Force of Alzheimer's & Brain Health – Ravi Kumar, MD

  Oct 1, 202659 minS2026

  As I get older, I mean bolder, I find myself asking more questions about what it really means to age well. Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline can be frightening. But I don't want to simply accept them as an inevitable part of aging. I want to understand what may be driving these changes and, more importantly, what I can do about them. When I came across Ravi Kumar, MD, a board-certified neurosurgeon on his podcast The Dr. Kumar Discovery, I knew I wanted to learn with him. Dr. Kumar has been exploring the science behind brain health, including metabolic health, insulin resistance, sleep, hearing loss, APOE4, amyloid, and lifestyle factors that may influence cognitive decline. Dr. Kumar will help us look beyond the fear of Alzheimer's and focus on what we can learn, what we can change, and how we can become more proactive about protecting our brains.

  Lillian McDermott, Aging Gratefully

  Sep 30, 202659 minS2026

  Lately, I've been thinking about what it really means to age gracefully. Getting older can bring changes we never expect. But it can also bring something incredibly valuable: wisdom, perspective, deeper relationships, and a greater appreciation for the gift of life. I'm learning that aging with grace requires gratitude. It doesn't mean ignoring the challenges that come with getting older. It means choosing how I respond to them. It means letting go of regret, forgiving others and myself, continuing to grow, and appreciating where I am rather than constantly wishing I were somewhere else. There are lessons that have helped me embrace this season of life with more gratitude, faith, responsibility, and joy. I don't want to spend my time wishing I were younger. I will share how to make the most of the life we have today and age gratefully!

  Healing Oils of The Bible, Prof. Gordon Pennington

  Sep 24, 202657 minS2026

  Throughout the Bible, we find references to oils used for anointing the sick, caring for wounds, and honoring God. How much do we really understand about these ancient healing traditions? Professor Gordon Pennington has dedicated years to researching the healing oils of the Bible and bringing ingredients such as frankincense, myrrh, and olive oil into a modern context. His work with biblical healing oils explores the historical, spiritual, and natural significance of these ancient ingredients. These include the biblical story of the Good Samaritan and the use of oil in caring for wounds. Personally, I love the Kure-it oils. I would like to learn more about what makes their oil better than most. Professor Gordon will share what he has learned about these ancient oils and why their story continues to capture the interest of people seeking natural approaches to wellness and a deeper connection between faith and health.

  Lillian McDermott, Fact Checking Your Thoughts

  Sep 23, 202657 minS2026

  Our minds are constantly generating thoughts. But not every thought deserves to be accepted as truth. Sometimes we react to assumptions, fears, old wounds, and stories we have created without ever stopping to ask whether they are actually true. I have learned that when we automatically believe every thought that enters our minds, we can become trapped in anxiety, self-doubt, anger, and unnecessary suffering. But when we pause and begin fact checking our thoughts, we create an opportunity to separate facts from fear and reality from the stories we tell ourselves. I will share how questioning our thoughts with curiosity and compassion can help us gain clarity, challenge limiting beliefs, and create greater peace and freedom in our lives.

  Break Free from Living in Survival Mode, Patrick Porter, PhD

  Sep 18, 202658 minS2026

  Our brains are designed to protect us from danger. But when stress becomes constant, the survival response that once served us can begin to work against us. Many people find themselves stuck in patterns of anxiety, overwhelm, fatigue, poor sleep, and emotional reactivity without realizing that their nervous system may be operating as if a threat is always present. The founder of BrainTap, Patrick Porter, PhD, is a leader in neurofeedback, brain fitness, and stress reduction technologies. He has spent decades helping people understand how chronic stress impacts the brain and body. By learning how to calm the nervous system and retrain the brain, we may discover that thriving is possible, even after years of living in survival mode. Dr. Porter will share practical tools and strategies for creating greater balance, resilience, and peace in everyday life.
