  • Episode #216: Confidence Q&A

    Elle Russ answers your real-life confidence questions...from worrying about what people will think when you put yourself out there, to dealing with bullies, comparing yourself to other people, and learning to trust yourself when you're not sure you're making the "right" decision.

    Because confidence isn't about never being afraid, never getting judged, or always knowing what to do. It's about learning that you can handle being seen, handle other people's opinions, push back when necessary, and trust yourself enough to keep moving forward. A practical conversation about confidence, courage, visibility, boundaries, and finally getting out of your own way.

  • Episode #214: The Art and Science of Wishing

    Elle Russ chats with Brownell Landrum - a TEDx speaker and the author of the new book, The Art and Science of Wishing, the Cosmic Wishes children's book, and the upcoming The Art & Science of Wishing at Work. She is also the author of over a dozen books, both fiction and nonfiction, the host of the Cosmic Wishes show (launched June 2, 2026), where she helps guests turn wishes into Cosmic Wishes by applying Science.

    What if the wishes that don't come true are sometimes the luckiest ones - and what if rejection is really the universe editing your story rather than ending it? Elle Russ and Brownell Landrum explore the science and psychology of wishing, from keeping your biggest dreams protected from other people's doubt to navigating conflicting desires, wishing for rather than against, and gratitude.

  • Episode #213: Thyroid Dosing Misconceptions: T4, T3, NDT & How Often You Really Need to Dose

    Elle Russ chats about some of the biggest misconceptions around thyroid hormone dosing. From T4-only and T4/T3 combinations to NDT, direct T3, slow-release T3, dose splitting, timing, and sublingual dosing, Elle breaks down why there is no one-size-fits-all protocol—and why people often mistakenly apply T3-only dosing rules to completely different thyroid hormone protocols. She also shares her own experience having used T3-only, T4/T3 combinations, and navigating reverse T3 issues over the years.

    If you've ever wondered whether you need to dose multiple times a day, whether your thyroid medication should be split, or why a dosing strategy that works beautifully for one person makes absolutely no sense for another, this episode clears up the confusion.

  • Episode #211: Rob Mack Guest - Attachment, Aloneness & Modern Love & Dating

    Elle Russ chats with Rob Mack about the modern state of dating, relationships, loneliness, happiness, and human connection in an increasingly disconnected world. Together, they explore everything from dating app fatigue, commitment paralysis, and "strategic singledom" to the rise of polyamory, self-awareness culture, trauma patterns, friendship, and the misunderstood meaning of "alpha" traits in men and women.

    Drawing from both positive psychology research and personal experience, Elle and Rob unpack the emotional realities behind modern relationships with humor, insight, honesty, and philosophical depth. The conversation dives into modern loneliness, the paradox of choice, attachment, self-worth, emotional presence, and why learning to enjoy your own company may be one of the foundations of a healthy relationship.

  • Episode #210: They Told Her She Was Dying - Karen's T3-Only Thyroid Comeback

    On today's episode, Elle Russ speaks with Karen about her harrowing thyroid journey. Her story is one of the most extreme and inspiring thyroid recoveries. After years of debilitating hypothyroid symptoms, failed T4-only treatment, crushing fatigue, hair loss, depression, migraines, and being repeatedly dismissed by doctors, Karen's health deteriorated so severely that she was told she could die if things didn't change quickly.

    Desperate for answers, Karen took her health into her own hands and discovered something most doctors never discuss: some thyroid patients simply do not do well on T4-only medication and may require direct T3 therapy - sometimes in much higher doses than conventional medicine is comfortable with.

    In this episode, Karen shares her brutal journey through sourcing medication internationally out of desperation, and finally finding the treatment that gave her life back. Today, after transitioning to T3-only therapy, Karen has:

    • all-day stamina
    • dramatically improved mental clarity
    • freedom from constant migraines
    • renewed confidence
    • improved hair growth
    • the ability to travel, hike, plan life again, and fully show up for her marriage and future

    This is a powerful conversation about perseverance, patient advocacy, medical gaslighting, and the life-changing impact of proper thyroid treatment.

    If you've ever been told your labs are "normal" while feeling anything but normal…this episode is for you.

  • Episode #209: Filters, Silence, and the Truth About Real Confidence

    In this episode, Elle Russ breaks down how confidence got turned into a weird public performance where being loud, unfiltered, and constantly visible is treated like proof of self-worth. Elle talks about:

    • Why confidence isn't the same as boldness, oversharing, or visibility
    • The difference between performance confidence and real, internal confidence
    • Why silence can be powerful (and not a sign of weakness)
    • How to actually choose your battles instead of reacting to everything
    • The truth about filters, aesthetics, and why presentation doesn't equal insecurity
    • Why confidence is built through action - not waiting until you "feel ready"

    This isn't about being the loudest person in the room or proving anything to anyone. It's about self-trust. Boundaries. And showing up on your own terms without needing permission.
