Having too much to do (and not enough time in which to do it all) can make you feel overwhelmed and stressed. But there are healthy ways to cope—which is one reason why we're happy to bring Michael Boroff, PsyD back to the show. Listen in as he discusses how stress impacts our overall health and how mindfulness can help.
Ironman Champion Sarah Piampiano joins the podcast to discuss how she went from working 120+ hours a week as an investment banker and smoking two packs of cigarettes a day to achieving her dreams of competing as a professional triathlete. Check out this episode to hear Sarah’s tips on shifting your mindset, positive self-talk, and embracing the concept of failure to reach your goals.
Traditional ideas about masculinity can impact the way men think about and respond to their own health. It can be so deeply ingrained that it becomes difficult to identify, much less address. Crossover Psychologists Drs. Vince Allen and Chris Drost talk about their work towards shifting ideas of masculinity as well as challenging conventional narratives about what it means to “be a man."
OB-GYNs, friends with children, and What to Expect When You're Expecting are all good sources of information that can help shape a woman's expectations of pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. But, there's a lot to learn from mothers’ hindsight. We asked a few of our Crossover experts and moms, “What do you know about pregnancy now, that you wish you knew then?” You’ll want to share this episode with both women and men who are about to embark on the parenthood journey.

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, grief is just one stage of an emotional pattern and emotions are viewed as phases rather than “good” or “bad” parts of who we are. Get a new perspective on how we can cope with these phases from Crossover Acupuncturist Cong Nguyen. Cong has navigated through his own grief and gained resilience by focusing on introspective questions like, “what is the function of this emotion?” and “what lesson is this experience trying to teach me?”

Grief creeps in for all of us in unexpected ways. From living through a pandemic, our childhood memories, even our wedding day (yes, it’s normal!), feelings of sorrow can be so nuanced that we can’t figure out what’s causing it or how to address it. Crossover Therapist Dr. Jennifer Uhrlass tells us about the many forms that grief takes in our lives, and how identifying it can help us cope with it.

Can the food we eat really impact our mental health? According to Crossover Health Coach and Registered Dietitian, Julianne Kanzaki, it’s a definite factor. Nutrients from the food you eat can play a critical role in supporting the microbiome in your gut, which is often just called the “second brain.” Want to see a change in your processed food cravings, decrease blood sugar spikes (which can trigger depression and anxiety), and boost your serotonin? You’re in the right place.
The decisions we make on an individual basis do matter. Crossover’s Dr. Shoshana Ungerleider, a wellness expert, frequent media contributor, and host of the TED Health Podcast joins Danielle to share the importance of receiving team-based care to optimize your “healthspan.” Find out how to improve your quality of life (hint: there’s no magic potion).
In this episode, we’re flushing out your options on colon cancer screenings. When to get tested (are you high- or low-risk for colorectal cancer?), what new options are there to choose from (at-home vs. colonoscopy), and how the testing options work (spoiler alert: you will be pooping!) are all covered in this podcast. But most importantly for anyone who has been putting this off… "There’s nothing to be afraid of!" Host Danielle and Crossover physician, Dr. Tiffani Lemen give a candid account on what to expect (with a few helpful tips on making the experience more pleasant—”definitely splurge for the good toilet paper”), and becoming well-informed for your upcoming conversation with your doctor.
TLDR: Get screened for colorectal cancer. Talk to your doctor about when and how.
