1178. Losing Your Mind Is the Secret to Emotional Freedom (Why “Bad” Emotions Can Actually Be Good) w/ Josh Pais

Hey Heal Squad! In this short and sweet Heal in 10, we’re breaking down one new study (Thanks Mark Hyman!) that reveals if your child is exposed to this one ingredient in the first 1,000 days of life, how it can dramatically impact your child’s risk of chronic disease for decades… We’re talking Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, immune strength, brain development, and more. The science shows that this tiny window programs metabolic health for the next 50+ years, and the results might surprise you. PLUS, Maria shares how she’s been navigating sugar, oils, and food quality with Athena, why she avoids “sugar-free swaps” that confuse kids later, and how building a solid nutritional foundation early can strengthen immunity and prevent long-term health issues. She also opens up about the pressure and guilt parents feel, and why you can’t blame yourself for what you didn’t know. This is your sign that it’s never too late to pivot, educate, and lead your family toward better habits.

Hey Regular Guys & Gals, Kev’s flying solo for a Lonely Guy Friday edition of RGF. This week, he unpacks how the songs that move you are actually your subconscious trying to speak. He breaks down how Steve Harley’s “Make Me Smile” teaches grace over bitterness, Bowie’s “Conversation Piece” turns loneliness into connection, and Morrissey’s “Cemetery Gates” helps bury old identities so you can finally walk free. PLUS, how the end of a cycle (and a Supermoon) can spark your next act, why cleaning out a closet can clear your soul, and how laughing right after you cry might be your brain’s ultimate reset.Kev shares Maria’s quiet wisdom that can rewire your outlook and how Priyanka Chopra’s dad’s advice may be the secret to peace… How the news may tell you the world’s ending, but Walmart crowds and wrestling crowds prove otherwise. And how captain Lou Albano reminds us that he is well and never sick! Bye Betches.

Hey Heal Squad! Did you know Maria has healed not one but 4 different medical diagnoses all on her own?! Not only did some of them require surgery in order to heal but she did it all… naturally! In honor of this week’s theme surrounding Maria’s personal health journey, we’re throwing it back to an episode where Maria’s health journey proves just how much control we really have over our bodies.  She opens up about eliminating thyroid nodules, shrinking vocal cord nodules, lowering her A1C and reducing inflammation, in a non-traditional way. She shares the surprising root causes her doctors never mentioned, the symptoms she ignored for too long, and the simple nutritional changes that helped her calm inflammation and breathe easier. PLUS, you’ll hear the breathwork techniques, supplements, and speech therapy tools that made a real difference in her voice, energy, and confidence. And perhaps most importantly, how learning to advocate for her own health changed everything (& how it’s possible for you too!). Tune in, take notes, and get ready to support your health in ways you may have never considered!

Hey Heal Squad! Today we’re joined by Bruce Willis’ wife, Emma Heming-Willis and Helen Christoni to dive deep into the realities of the caregiving experience. The everyday challenges that the Willis family has been experiencing since Bruce Willis was diagnosed with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The two have both cared for loved ones through dementia and FTD, and are now on a mission to support the caregivers who often feel invisible.  PLUS, we break down the difference between dementia and Alzheimer’s, the emotional roller coaster caregivers are never prepared for, and the hard decisions families face when care needs evolve. Whether you’re a caregiver, love someone who needs support, or want to protect your brain health now, you don’t want to miss this one!  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Caregivers can’t pour from an empty cup: When you constantly prioritize everyone else’s needs over your own, your body eventually keeps the score. Prioritizing your sleep, nutrition, movement, and connection isn’t selfish. Connection is medicine: Isolation is one of the fastest ways a caregiver’s mental and physical health can decline. Staying plugged into community, friends, and emotional support helps you regulate stress and remember you’re not carrying this alone. Honesty with kids builds safety: When a parent declines, hiding the truth creates confusion, fear, and internalized blame. Speaking gently, directly, and age-appropriately helps children process what’s happening and gives them the emotional tools to stay resilient through change. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Thrive Causemetics: https://thrivecausemetics.com/healsquad Get 20% OFF with this link!  Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagrams: https://www.instagram.com/emmahemingwillis/?hl=en  https://www.instagram.com/helenchristoni/?hl=en  https://www.instagram.com/maketimewellness/?hl=en  Website: https://maketimewellness.com/  Book: https://emmahemingwillis.com/the-unexpected-journey/  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey, Heal Squad! In honor of Diabetes Awareness Month, Maria is opening up and sharing the full story of her Type 1 diabetes diagnosis, from the moment she realized something was wrong to the emotional whirlwind that followed. She walks us through what those early symptoms actually felt like, everything she’s learned throughout her journey, and the surprising lessons she learned while watching her dad manage diabetes throughout her childhood. She opens up about how she navigated the fear and confusion around her diagnosis, and the practical tools she’s using every single day to support her blood sugar, energy, and stress levels. PLUS, we dive into the emotional side of managing a chronic condition, and how to listen to your body before it’s shouting at you.

Happy Halloween, Regular Guys & Gals! Kev and Kelsey are BACK, and this week we’re talking everything from wedding-guest etiquette to why finishing your year strong might mean grinding harder…OR embracing the art of hardly working at all. They break down how you might be storing unhealthy energy without realizing it, and why something as simple as singing could be the emotional release you didn’t know you needed. PLUS, Kev shares how organization gives your energy and how labels make organization easy. Kelsey takes us inside her psilocybin journey, the do’s, the don’ts, the mindset, safety tips, and the surprising results she walked away with. We also get into the mindset you need going into auditions, interviews, and big moments, the power of detachment, and how to win or lose (Spoiler… it’s about the practice of embracing whatever comes).
