Not only has Dr. Pam been recently voted on to the board of directors of the American College of Sports Medicine, but she's also an avid senior Olympic triathlete and an advocate for getting & staying fit. So anyone else who speaks that language needs to be on the show!

Dr. Daniel Fulham O’Neill is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon, sports medicine doctor, and sports psychologist. At the intersection of physical health and sports, he has built over 30+ years of a successful medical practice and revolutionary education platform that is transforming today’s approach to children’s fitness. His research, presentations, and books have consistently challenged the status quo, inspiring educators nationwide to discover and nurture the athlete in every child.

He joins us today to talk about his newest book Survival of the Fit: How Physical Education Ensures Academic Achievement and a Healthy Life.

Listen as these two talk all things sports medicine, how obesity is affecting our kids (in more ways than you think), how letting kids be kids will ultimately lead to health and wellness, and keeping gym class fun & positive. 

Marcia Meier is an award-winning writer, developmental book editor, writing coach, and publisher of Weeping Willow Books, and her latest book focuses on a traumatic event from her past, and how it has shaped the course of her life.

Face, A Memoir follows Meier as she dives into her past. When she was 5 years old she was hit by a car and dragged 200 feet, losing her entire left cheek & eyelid, and almost died.

In this moving conversation, listen as Marcia and Dr. Peeke talk about acceptance, healing, big life changes at 50, therapy, and more. 

Today we're talking about something most of us don't think about day to day: our inner thermostat. Now, what does that mean?! Were talking about thermo-wellness, thermoregulation, our sense of temperature, and how it relates to emotions. It's not new science, but it is the focus of a new book Heartwarming: How Our Inner Thermostat Made Us Human. 

Well, Hans IJzerman Ph.D. is here to talk all about temperature regulation and its importance on interpersonal relationships. He is the author of Heartwarming: How Our Inner Thermostat Made Us Human, and an Associate Professor at Université Grenoble Alpes. 

Central heating and how it has changed our lives, hot blankets and loneliness, describing people as having "warm or cold" personalities, and should you sell your house in the summer or winter months? We'll talk about all of this and more in this fascinating episode.
